Liquidity risk:• Liquidity risk for insurers:

Risk of an actual or perceived shortfall of liquid assets to pay claims or operating expenses.Risk of low investment yield related to liquidity issues, e.g.– Investing too safely; maximizes liquidity but hurts performance.– Having to get out of a position at an inopportune time and realize a loss (significant research

on “cost of distress” issues).

Impacts of liquidity issues• Inability to pay claims on a timely basis can produce “run on bank” mentality• Rating agencies rate willingness and ability to pay - Money invested in illiquid assets is heavily

discounted in the rating process. Downgrade=death.• Poor investment performance related to liquidity issues can contribute to further problems

(particularly distressed selling)

Unique attributes of insurance industry:Majority of cash obligations are estimates - not known in nominal or present value• Analysis that reflects the uncertainty of obligations suggests a different position than a static

analysis would• Liquidity management becomes important

Liabilities are sensitive to inflation• Simultaneous impacts on assets and liabilities should be understood• Forces that could result in increase of liabilities and decrease of assets at the same time impair

operating flexibility and can force a liquidity crunch

Underwriting cycle can produce fluctuating operating cash position• Changing levels of internally generated cash may alter investment strategy and concerns about

liquidity• Less concern when internally generated cash is readily available „

Catastrophe exposure• Must account for potential need for significant liquidity

Regulatory constraints on investing “creativity” (concern for policyholder welfare)• Strategy must incorporate constraints by external parties• Practically speaking, this results in a need to keep a safe liquidity posture

Asset management has established conventional wisdoms and risks of deviations• Departures from traditional approaches often must be supported by strong evidence

Sometimes poorly institutionalized links between asset and liability side• More dynamic links can be created

Enterprise Risk Management and Investment Philosophy

Asset Allocation Policy is the primary driver of total investment portfolio return variability and performanceover timeLiquidity Metrics must be incorporated with other total return measuresActive Risk Policy drives relative portfolio performance and significantly enhances performance over timeManager Structure integrates asset allocation policy and active risk policy to avoid uncompensated risksand capture active manager skill to enhance returns.Active Manager Skill adds value over time.An Enterprise Risk Management Approach is essential to enhance overall corporate financial performance

Sales Tax on Life Insurance Premium

The Company has not provided for and billed their customers

for Sindh Sales Tax for the period from 1st July 2018 to

31st December 2018 and Punjab Sales Tax for the period

from 1st November 2018 to 31st December 2018 on risk

premium of life insurance business.

Sindh Revenue Board (“SRB”) has been granting exemption

for sales tax on life insurance premium on a year to year

basis which had expired on 30 June 2018. However, sales

tax on life insurance premium on policies written in Punjab

has been made applicable from 01November, 2018 and

Balochistan Revenue Authority had imposed sales tax on

life insurance premium effective 01 January 2015.

We are of the view that the levy of sales tax on life insurance

business is not fair and is unjust. The matter for the renewal

of the exemption was taken up at the collective level by

the Insurance Association of Pakistan (IAP) with the sales

tax authorities. Further, the Sindh Cabinet in its meeting

held on 27th Feb 2019 has also deferred the levy of taxes

on Health and Life Insurance premium till the next financial

year. The Company has also sought a legal opinion from

the legal counsel and based on his opinion and, in view of

the fact that the matter is under the process of review with

the taxation authorities, the Company has not billed sales

tax on life insurance premium to its customers amounted

to Rs 1,315.33 million. Based on the IAP's discussions with

the sales tax authorities, the decision of the Sindh Cabinet

and the legal opinion, we are hopeful that the exemption

will be granted. Accordingly, the provision against sales

tax liability has not been made by the Company in these

financial statements as the discussions are still in progress.

Profitability:

During the year, the Company's statutory funds generated

a surplus of Rs. 2.14 billion.

Out of this surplus, Rs. 1.98 billion was transferred to the

Shareholders' Fund after retaining the amount necessary

to meet 100% Solvency Margin requirement. Your

Company made an after-tax profit of Rs. 1.58 billion.

Earnings Per Share

The earnings per share for the year was Rs 15.81 (2017:

Also, projection of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods is subject tothe risk that the controls may become inadequate or fail.

The procedures performed included:

– Evaluate the systems, procedures and practices in place with respect to the Takaful operations against theTakaful Rules, 2012 and Shariah advisor's guidelines;

Independent Auditor's Report

To the members of EFU Life Assurance Limited

Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements

Qualified Opinion

We have audited the annexed financial statements of EFU Life Assurance Limited (the “Company”), which comprisethe statement of financial position as at 31 December 2018, the profit and loss account, the statement of comprehensiveincome, the statement of changes in equity and the statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes tothe financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information,and we state that we have obtained all the information and explanations which, to the best of our knowledge andbelief, were necessary for the purposes of the audit.

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the effectsof the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion section of our report, the statement of financial position,the profit and loss account, the statement of comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity and thestatement of cash flows together with the notes forming part thereof, conform with the accounting and reportingstandards as applicable in Pakistan and give the information required by the Insurance Ordinance, 2000 and theCompanies Act, 2017 (XIX of 2017), in the manner so required and respectively give a true and fair view of the stateof Company's affairs as at 31 December 2018 and of the profit, total comprehensive income, the changes in equityand its cash flows for the year then ended.

Basis for Qualified Opinion

As more fully explained in note 24.1 to the financial statements, the Sindh Revenue Board abolished sales tax exemptionon life insurance premium from 01 July 2018. Further, the Punjab and Balochistan Revenue Authorities have alsointroduced sales tax on life insurance premium effective from 01 November 2018 and 01 July 2015. The Companyhas not charged the sales tax on life insurances premium to its customers since the matter of renewal of exemptionis under discussion with the sales tax authorities. IAS 37 'Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets'requires provision should be recognised when the entity has a present legal obligation as a result of past event.Accordingly, had the above liability been recorded, profit for the year and equity of the Company would have reducedby Rs. 1,315.33 million and the sales tax liability would have been increased by the same amount.

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) as applicable in Pakistan. Ourresponsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of theFinancial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the InternationalEthics Standards Board for Accountants' Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants as adopted by the Institute ofChartered Accountants of Pakistan (the Code) and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordancewith the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basisfor our qualified opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of thefinancial statements for the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financialstatements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on thesematters.

Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditor's Report Thereon

Management is responsible for the Other Information. The Other Information comprises the information included inthe Annual Report but does not include the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the Other Information and we do not express any form ofassurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the Other Information and, indoing so, consider whether the Other Information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or ourknowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we haveperformed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this Other Information, we are required to report

that fact. We have concluded that the Other Information is materially misstated for the same reason with respect tothe amounts or other items in the Company's Annual Report affected by the matter described in the Basis for QualifiedOpinion section of our report.

Responsibilities of Management and Board of Directors for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance withthe accounting and reporting standards as applicable in Pakistan and the requirements of Insurance Ordinance, 2000and, Companies Act, 2017 (XIX of 2017), and for such internal control as management determines is necessary toenable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud orerror.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue asa going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis ofaccounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realisticalternative but to do so.

Board of directors are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free frommaterial misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion.Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance withISAs as applicable in Pakistan will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise fromfraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected toinfluence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit, in accordance with ISAs as applicable in Pakistan, we exercise professional judgment and maintainprofessional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error,design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient andappropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting fromfraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that areappropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of theCompany's internal control.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates andrelated disclosures made by management.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based onthe audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may castsignificant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertaintyexists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statementsor, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidenceobtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Companyto cease to continue as a going concern.

• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, andwhether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fairpresentation.

We communicate with the board of directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of theaudit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify duringour audit.

We also provide the board of directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirementsregarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably bethought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with the board of directors, we determine those matters that were of most significancein the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describethese matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when,in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because theadverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of suchcommunication.

Report on other legal and regulatory requirements

a) proper books of account have been kept by the Company as required by the Insurance Ordinance, 2000 and theCompanies Act, 2017 (XIX of 2017);

2.6 Standards, Interpretations and amendments not effective at year end

The following International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS Standards) as notified under the Companies Act,2017 and the amendments and interpretations thereto will be effective for accounting periods beginning on orafter 01 January 2019:

– IFRIC 23 'Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January2019) clarifies the accounting for income tax when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments under IAS12. The interpretation requires the uncertainty over tax treatment be reflected in the measurement of currentand deferred tax. The application of interpretation is not likely to have an impact on Company's financialstatements.

– IFRS 15 'Revenue from contracts with customers' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2018).IFRS 15 establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue isrecognized. It replaces existing revenue recognition guidance, including IAS 18 'Revenue', IAS 11 ConstructionContracts' and IFRIC '13 'Customer Loyalty Programmes'. The application of interpretation is not likely to havean impact on the Company's financial statements.

– IFRS 9 'Financial Instruments' and amendment - Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation (effectivefor annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2018 and 1 January 2019 respectively). IFRS 9 replaces the existingguidance in IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. IFRS 9 includes revised guidance onthe classification and measurement of financial instruments, a new expected credit loss model for calculatingimpairment on financial assets, and new general hedge accounting requirements. It also carries forward theguidance on recognition and derecognition of financial instruments from IAS 39. However, SECP through itsnotification no. S.R.O 229 (I)/2019 dated 14 February 2019 has deferred the applicability of IFRS 9 for reportingperiod / year ending on or after 30 June 2019. The Company is currently in the process of analysing the potentialimpact of changes required in classification and measurement of financial instruments and the impact of expectedloss model on adoption of the standard.

– Amendment to IFRS 4 ‘Insurance Contracts’- Applying IFRS 9 ‘Financial Instruments’ with IFRS 4 (effective for annualperiods beginning on or after 1 July 2018). The amendment address issue arising from the different effective datesof IFRS 9 and the forthcoming new standard IFRS 17 ‘Insurance Contracts’. The amendments introduce twoalternative options for entities issuing contracts within the scope of IFRS 4, notably a temporary exemption andan overlay approach. The temporary exemption enables eligible entities to defer the implementation date of IFRS.The overlay approach allows an entity applying IFRS 9 from 1 July 2018 onwards to remove from profit or loss theeffects of some of the accounting mismatches that may occur from applying IFRS 9 before IFRS 17 is applied. TheCompany has adopted the temporary exemption which allows the Company to defer the application of bothIFRS 9 and IFRS 17 until 31 December 2021.

– IFRS 16 'Leases' (effective for annual period beginning on or after 1 January 2019). IFRS 16 replaces existingleasing guidance, including IAS 17 'Leases' , IFRIC 4 'Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease' ,SIC-15 'Operating Leases- Incentives' and SIC - 27 'Evaluating the Substance of Transactions Involving the LegalForm of a Lease'. IFRS 16 introduces a single, on - balance sheet lease accounting model for lessees. A lesseerecognizes a right - of - use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset and a lease liability representingits obligation to make lease payments. There are recognition exemptions for short - term leases and leases oflow-value items. Lessor accounting remains similar to the current standard i.e. lessors continue to classify leasesas finance or operating leases. The Company is currently in the process of analyzing the potential impact of itslease arrangements that will result in recognition of right to use assets and liabilities on adoption of the standard.

– Amendment to IAS 28 'Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures' - Long Term Interests in Associates andJoint Ventures (effective for annual period beginning on or after 1 January 2019). The amendment will affectcompanies that finance such entities with preference shares or with loans for which repayment is not expectedin the foreseeable future (referred to as long - term interests or 'LTI' ). The amendment and accompanyingexample state that LTI are in the scope of both IFRS 9 and IAS 28 and explain the annual sequence in which bothstandards are to be applied. The amendments are not likely to have an impact on Company's financial statements.

– Amendments to IAS 19 'Employee Benefits' - Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement (effective for annualperiods beginning on or after 1 January 2019). The amendments clarify that on amendment, curtailment orsettlement of a defined benefit plan, a Company now uses updated actuarial assumptions to determine itscurrent service cost and net interest for the period; and the effect of the asset ceiling is disregarded whencalculating the gain or loss on any settlement of the plan and is dealt with separately in other comprehensiveincome. The application of amendments is not likely to have an impact on Company's financial statements.

– Amendment to IFRS 3 'Business Combinations' - Definition of a Business (effective for business combinationsfor which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of annual period beginning on or after 1 January2020). The IASB has issued amendments aiming to resolve the difficulties that arise when an entity determineswhether it has acquired a business or a group of assets. The amendments clarify that to be considered a business,an acquired set of activities and assets must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process thattogether significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. The amendments include an election to use aconcentration test. The standard is effective for transactions in the future and therefore would not have animpact on past financial statements.

– Amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements and IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in AccountingEstimates and Errors (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020). The amendments areintended to make the definition of material in IAS 1 easier to understand and are not intended to alter the underlyingconcept of materiality in IFRS Standards. In addition, the IASB has also issued guidance on how to make materialityjudgments when preparing their general purpose financial statements in accordance with IFRS Standards.

– Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2015 - 2017 Cycle - the improvements address amendments to followingapproved accounting standards:

– IFRS 3 Business Combinations and IFRS 11 Joint Arrangement - the amendment aims to clarify the accountingtreatment when a Company increases its interest in a joint operation that meets the definition of a business. ACompany remeasures its previously held interest in a joint operation when it obtains joint control of the business.

– IAS 12 Income Taxes - the amendment clarifies that all income tax consequences of dividends (includingpayments on financial instruments classified as equity) are recognized consistently with the transaction thatgenerates the distributable profits.

– IAS 23 Borrowing Costs - the amendment clarifies that a Company treats as part of general borrowings anyborrowing originally made to develop an asset when the asset is ready for its intended use or sale.

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are consistent with those of theprevious financial year except for the policies and standards disclosed in note 5 of these financial statements whichhave been adopted by the Company during the current year.

3.1.1 Property and Equipment

These are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, if any.

Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the depreciable amount of the assets over their expected useful lives atthe rates specified in note 6.1 to the financial statements, after taking into account residual value, if any. The usefullives, residual values and depreciation methods are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at each balance sheet date.

Depreciation on additions is charged from the quarter in which an asset is available for use while no depreciationis charged for the quarter in which asset is disposed off.

Subsequent cost are included in the assets carrying amount or recognized as separate asset, as appropriate, onlywhen it is possible that the future economic benefit associated with the item will flow to the Company and the costof the item can be measured reliably. Revenue expenditures are charged to profit and loss account.

An item of fixed asset is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from itsuse or disposal. Gain and losses on disposal, if any, of assets are included in profit and loss account currently.

The carrying value of tangible fixed assets is reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstancesindicate that this carrying value may not be recoverable. If any such indications exist and where the carrying valuesexceed the estimated recoverable amounts, the assets are written down to their recoverable amount.

3.1.2 Intangible assets

These are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and any impairment in value. Amortization on intangiblefixed assets is charged to profit and loss account applying the straight line method at the rates specified in note 7to the financial statements after taking into account residual value, if any.

Amortization is charged from the quarter the assets are available for use and no amortization is charged for thequarter in which the asset is disposed off. The useful life and amortization method is reviewed, and adjusted ifappropriate, at each balance sheet date.

The carrying values of intangible fixed assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstancesindicate that this carrying value may not be recoverable, if any such indication exists and where the carrying valuesexceed the estimated recoverable amount, the assets are written down to their recoverable amount.

3.1.3 Insurance Contracts

Classification

24. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS

24.1 The Income tax assessment of the Company for tax year 2018 has been finalized. The tax department has reopened the

assessment order issued under Sec 122(5A) for the tax year 2009-2016 and has raised a demand of Rs. 56.31 million against

dividend income so received by the Company to be taxed at corporate rate instead of reduced rates available in the First

schedule of Income Tax Ordinance 2001. The Company filed an appeal for tax year 2009-2013 before CIT appeals where

the case was decided against the Company. The Company has filed an appeal before Appellate Tribunal for the same tax

years where the case was decided in favour of the Company. For tax year 2014 and tax year 2016, the Company filed an

appeal before CIT appeals against the order, where the case was decided in favour of the Company. For the tax year 2015,

the Company has filed an appeal before CIT appeal. No provision has been made in respect of aforementioned additional

demand.

In 2015 and 2016, The Searle Company Limited issued bonus shares (76,031 shares and 342,480 shares respectively) after

withholding 5 percent of bonus shares (3,801.55 shares and 18,707.44 shares respectively) and the IBL Healthcare Limited.

issued bonus shares (46,625 shares and 80,311 shares respectively) after withholding 5 percent of bonus shares (2,331.26

shares and 4,031 shares respectively). In this regard, a constitutional petition had been filed by the Company in Sindh High

Court challenging the applicability of withholding tax provision on bonus shares received by the Company. The honorable

high court decided the case against the Company. Subsequently, the Company filed an appeal with a larger bench of the

Sindh High Court and in response the Sindh High Court has suspended the earlier judgment until the next date of hearing,

which has not yet been decided. The Company is of the view that the case will be decided in its favour and no provision has

been made for the aforementioned tax.

Sindh Revenue Board has been granting exemption for sales tax on life insurance premium on a year to year basis which had

expired on 30 June 2018. Similarly, sales tax on life insurance premium was also exempt in Punjab. However, sales tax on

life insurance premium on policies written in Punjab has been made applicable from November 2018. Further, Balochistan

Revenue Authority has also imposed sales tax on life insurance premium effective 01 July 2015. The matter for the renewal

of the exemption was taken up at the collective level by the Insurance Association of Pakistan (IAP) with the sales tax authorities

of the respective provinces. In view of the fact that the matter is under the process of review with the taxation authorities,

the Company has not started billing sales tax on life insurance premium to its customers. At 31 December 2018, the aggregate

amount of sales tax on life insurance premium not yet billed by the Company to its customers amounted to Rs. 1,315.33

million. Based on the IAP’s discussions with the sales tax authorities, the Company is hopeful ‘that the exemption will be

granted for the current year. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded any provision against sales tax liability in these

financial statements.

24.2 Bank guarantees amounting to Rs.17.27 million has been given in respect of Group Life coverage. These bank guarantees

will expire by 16 January 2020.

40. MANAGEMENT OF INSURANCE RISK AND FINANCIAL RISK

40.1 INSURANCE RISK

40.1.1 Insurance Contracts and Takaful Contracts

40.1.1.1 Classification

The Company currently issues contracts that are classified as insurance and takaful contracts as they transfer significantinsurance risk (against death, disability and sickness) from the policyholder to the Company. In the past the Companyhas issued contracts where the insurance risk transferred is insignificant, these therefore being classified as investmentcontracts. All contracts which include an investment element being unit - linked contracts linked to internal mutual funds.

Downloaded from: https://OpenDoors.Pk

151

(b) Conventional Protection Products:

Two types of products are offered under Individual life conventional business, these being medium to long term contractswith level premiums being paid over the policy period. The Company offers a standard term life assurance product thatoffers protection in event of death as well as a decreasing term life assurance policy that covers outstanding loan balances.

Policyholder liabilities for both products are determined on a net premium basis by determining the present value ofbenefits less the present value of future net premiums, a theoretical net premium being calculated using conservativeassumptions for mortality and the discount rate.

(c) Family Takaful Investment linked Products:

These are medium to long term unit - linked plans operated through Window Takaful Operations of EFU Life Assurance.

The Member liabilities are divided into two broad categories, unit reserves and non - unit reserves. The unit reservecomprises of the total units allocated to the Membership in the Participants’ Investment Fund (PIF). The value of theseunits, at the bid price prevailing on the valuation date, forms the unit reserve. The non - unit reserve is the actuarial reservein the Participants’ Takaful Fund (PTF). The net non - unit reserve is calculated as the unearned mortality reserve whichis calculated as the unexpired portion of the net mortality charges (Net of Wakala Fee and Retakaful Contribution)deposited into the PTF. The gross non - unit reserve is calculated as the net reserve plus the unearned retakaful contributionpaid.

(d) Accident and Health Products:

These consist of long term and short term Accident and Health products providing cover against accidental death, disability,sickness and critical illness, offered both as long term as well as yearly renewable plans.

Policyholder Liabilities for short term contracts are evaluated using the unearned premium reserve method, taking intoaccount the unexpired future period of risk, with a premium deficiency reserve being provided for where the Company’smanagement perceives that the premium being charged is not adequate. For the critical illness long term contracts,liabilities are evaluated using a net premium method i.e. expected present value of benefits payable less expected presentvalue of net premiums receivable.

(e) Other Supplementary Benefits:

The Company also offers a variety of supplementary benefits attached with main plans including additional term lifeassurance, income benefits, critical illness, sickness and accidental death and disability related benefits.

The Company classifies its business into Individual Life and Group Life businesses, in both cases the form of contractconsisting of main plans and supplementary riders (which are generally optional).

Individual life business mainly consists of unit - linked products and conventional protection products, in both cases withoptional supplementary riders which generally provide protection only. Group Life business consists primarily of protectionproducts and a relatively small number of unit - linked policies.

40.1.1.2 Contract details and measurement

The insurance contracts offered by the Company are described below.

40.1.1.2 Individual Life Policies

These consist of the following types of policies:

(a) Unit - Linked Products:

These are medium to long term unit - linked plans designed to address a variety of future policyholder needs, such asretirement planning, education planning for children, marriage planning for children, life protection and investments andsavings for future. Premiums received from policyholders and after deduction of specified charges including risk charges,are invested in internal unit funds of the Company. The basic plan contains life cover over and above the unit value, withadditional protection (for death, disability and sickness) being provided through the addition of optional riders.

Policyholder Liabilities for these plans (excluding attached riders) are measured as the sum of the fair value of unitsattached and the unearned part of any risk premiums charged.

EFU LIFE ASSURANCE LIMITED

152

The methods used to determine policy holder liabilities differ with the nature and terms of these benefits. Mostsupplementary benefits related to death and critical illness, are identical to some main plans offered in individual lifebusiness, the valuation methods used for these being consistent with their related main plans. Measurement of liabilitiesfor benefits related to accident disability, accidental death and sickness are based on unearned premium method.

(f) Reserve for Outstanding Losses (Individual life)

The Company records reported losses as payable upon intimation of any claim. Unpaid claims are assessed from time totime and the liability measured in accordance with management’s estimates of whether claims are payable or not.

Claims payable over a duration of more than one year are measured at the discounted value of expected payments.

The Company also provides, as part of policyholder liabilities, a reserve for incurred but not reported claims (IBNR). Dueto insufficient claim history of Individual life business, however, the general lag method for IBNR is not used. The Companyadopts a methodology based on best estimates of future incurred but not reported claims, as suggested by the appointedactuary of the Company.

40.1.1.2 Group Life and Group Family Takaful Protection Policies

Nature of Contracts:

The Company’s group life and group takaful business consists of one year term life contracts which provide coverage,in the event of death or disability, to:

1) Employees of a common employer, benefits payable under these contracts being either fixed, in case of death, orlinked to the extent of loss incurred by the policyholder, in case of disability;

2) Customers of financial institutions, the contracts being issued to financial institutions to protect their customers’outstanding loan balances, such as on personal loan, mortgages and credit cards.

Unit - Linked Group Life policies are similar in nature to Individual Life Unit linked Products.

Policyholder Liabilities:

Policyholder liabilities consist of the following components:

Net Unearned Premium Reserve

The unearned premium reserve is the portion of premium that had been booked in the current period but pertains to aperiod that extends beyond the valuation date. The fraction of premium that is to be consumed in the succeeding periodis considered to be unearned. The unearned premium is the aggregate for both posted and fluctuations in the unearnedpremium.

The unearned premium reserve is computed both gross and net of reinsurance, the methodology used for both beingsimilar.

Unit - Linked Group Life Policies

Policyholder Liabilities for these policies are measured as the sum of the fair value of units attached and the unearnedpart of any risk premiums charged.

Profit Commission Reserve (Accrued for Policyholders)

This is the total accrued profit commission that is payable to Policyholders at a future date. Profit commission for anypolicy normally becomes payable at the end of three policy years. However, accrued profit commission is calculated atthe end of each policy year to account for the liability that has been created for that year. The sum of all such accruedprofit commissions for all schemes is the Profit Commission reserve.

Profit Commission Reserve (Accrued from Reinsurer)

This is the total profit commission due from reinsurer on all reinsured schemes. Profit commission rates are applied oninsured groups, based on their size. The total profit commission accrued from reinsurer is the sum of profit commissionsfor each group.

Premium Deficiency Reserve

The need for premium deficiency reserve arises when the Company expects to incur claims in excess of reserves set asideusing conventional methods. The Company analyzed its current portfolio of group contracts and evaluated loss ratiosof group business. The Company does not expect excessive claims on any schemes and hence no provision for PremiumDeficiency Reserve is set aside.

Incurred But Not Reported (IBNR) Reserve

The IBNR (incurred but not reported) reserve is an estimate of those claims that might have occurred but not yet reported.This is estimated by using the claim intimation lag from the date of death for the claims that have been reported in thelast two years.

The liabilities evaluated under these assumptions suggest that recognized liabilities are adequate and no further provisionis required.

40.1.2 Reinsurance / Retakaful contracts held:

The Company has entered into reinsurance / retakaful (hereinafter referred to as “reinsurance”) arrangements, for bothits individual and group businesses, in order to manage risks associated with the frequency and severity of claims. Thesearrangements include cover under treaties as well as on a facultative basis. The terms of reinsurance treaties vary by typeof business, the objective being to maintain a reasonable risk profile suiting the risk appetite and overall exposure toadverse movements in mortality or morbidity.

Primarily, reinsurance assets are amounts due from reinsurers with respect to recoveries under claims and profit commission.Reinsurance recoveries are measured according to the terms and conditions of the reinsurance contracts.

Reinsurance liabilities consist of amounts due to reinsurers on account of reinsurance premiums due which are measuredaccounting to the terms of the arrangements.

The details related to reinsurance assets and liabilities are shown below:

40.1.1.3 Liability Adequacy Test

Liability adequacy test is applied to all long term contracts where necessary. The test is carried out using current bestestimates of assumptions and future net cash flows, including premiums receivable and benefits payable.

To determine the adequacy of liabilities, assumptions must be based on realistic best estimates. At the moment, theCompany does not have sufficient mortality data for comparison with assumed life table EFU (61-66). The Companycompares EFU (61-66) with recent mortality studies for similar groups. The comparison suggests that current actualmortality experience is better than the experience reflected in EFU (61-66). Thus the Company uses a modified versionof EFU (61-66) as a best estimate of mortality for liability adequacy test.

The investment return currently assumed for valuation is 3.75% p.a. This assumption reflects a long term conservativereturn that the Company expects to earn on assets backing these liabilities. On a more realistic view of current financialmarkets, the Company estimates that a long term return on these assets of 6% is reasonable. Liabilities are reevaluatedat investment return assumption of 6% for Liability Adequacy Test.

The table below compares total policyholder liabilities under existing valuation basis with policyholder liabilities calculatedusing best estimate assumptions:

The Company assesses impairment on its reinsurance assets on a regular basis to identify any losses in recoveries. As ofnow, Company’s all reinsurance assets are due from reinsurers with a credit rating of “A or Above”. The reinsurersmaintain a sound credit history and hence no impairment provision is required for now.

40.1.3 Accounting estimates and judgments

The Company makes several estimates of assumptions to evaluate its assets and liabilities reported in its financial statements.On the liability side, there are a number of factors that have a direct impact on policyholder liabilities. Assumptions arecontinually evaluated using internal analysis and monitoring processes to test validity of these assumptions.

40.1.3.1 Mortality, Disability and Critical Illness

Mortality and disability rates are basic assumptions used in valuation of policyholder liabilities. For mortality, life tableEFU (61-66) is being currently used. The life table was published more than 40 years ago and may not reflect mortalityimprovements. For reserving purposes, a 10% mortality loading is used over EFU (61-66) rates to build in conservatism.An analysis of past mortality experience, reveals that 10% mortality loading for reserving purposes is appropriate toensure prudence.

Sudden adverse experience in mortality might occur due to epidemics, causing deaths on a mass scale due to incurablecontagious illnesses. Mortality may also deteriorate over a period of time, due to widescale changes in living life styles,eating and health habits.

Sensitivity test with respect to mortality is carried out and impact on policyholder liabilities is observed. When mortalityrates increase by 10%, policyholder liabilities increase by 0.063%. Likewise, when mortality rates decrease by 10%,policyholder liabilities decrease by 0.063%.

In absence of credible disability and critical illness incidence rates, the Company uses reinsurance rates for actuarial liabilityvaluation of disability and critical illness benefits.

40.1.3.2 Investment income

Investment income is an important assumption for valuation of long term conventional plans. This is the rate at whichfuture expected benefits and expected premiums are discounted. Currently, the valuation assumption used for investmentincome is 3.75% p.a.

Sensitivity test with respect to investment income is carried out and its impact on policyholder liabilities observed. Wheninvestment rate is increased by 10%, policyholder liabilities decrease by 0.002%. Likewise, when investment income rateis decreased by 10%, policyholder liabilities increase by 0.002%.

40.1.4 Frequency and Severity of claims

Frequency and severity can have a significant impact on total claims paid out by the Company. High frequency of claimscould occur due to adverse experience of mortality or disability. Adverse mortality experience, in short-term, could bedue to a wide-range spread of fatal contagious disease, an epidemic. Over a longer term, overall health practices, eatingand living habits could potentially have an adverse effect on mortality.

About 90% of Company’s business is concentrated in the provinces of Sindh and Punjab. This concentration is largelyin line with the population of these provinces relative to country’s total population. The Company’s diversified portfolioof contracts helps limit the frequency and severity of claims. However, in event of large number of deaths or disabilities,Company does face the risk of paying out excessive claims. To manage and mitigate this exposure, arrangements in formof reinsurance and catastrophe cover are in place.

In Group life business, frequency and severity of claims can be affected by concentration of business in a specifically riskyclass of industry. Claim frequency can rise substantially from businesses in industries that are more prone to accidentsdue to the nature of work they perform. Likewise, severity of claims can also be associated with business concentrationin a specific class of industry. The Company continually monitors its concentration risk and takes measures to keep itsbusiness portfolio well diversified.

Contracts in group life, are mainly one year term life contracts, where premium rates are generally guaranteed for oneyear only. The Company retains the right of changing premium rates by incorporating the claim experience of a groupinsured, thereby allowing the Company to charge a specific group in line with its claim experience.

The Company regularly carries out an exercise to monitor time lags between intimation and settlement claim dates. Thestudy reveals that a significant portion of claims are settled within twelve months of claim intimation.

40.1.5 Sources of uncertainty in estimation of future benefit payments and premium receipts

The uncertainty with respect to future premiums and benefits may arise due to unexpected changes in mortality ordisability experience. Adverse mortality experience will result in excess benefit payments, and reduced future premiumincome.

Likewise, unexpected changes in surrender and lapse could also have a significant impact on future realized premiums.Estimates of lapses and surrenders are based on internal experience studies carried out annually. Factors that could affectpolicyholder behavior include market factors such as interest rates, policyholder preferences in terms of the monetaryvalue that a policyholder relates with the insurance policy, the frequency of premium payments and the age of theindividual.

40.1.6 Process used to decide on assumptions

Assumptions used to determine policyholder liabilities include mortality, disability, and critical illness rates, investmentreturns for conventional business, investment returns for investment linked business, expenses and mortality loading.

Mortality assumptions should in principle reflect adequate conservatism in liabilities. The Company considers EFU (61-66) life table to be appropriate for actuarial valuation of policyholder liabilities.

Disability and Critical illness rates used for liability valuation are the reinsurance rates provided by the reinsurer. Due tolack of sufficient claim experience for these disabilities and critical illnesses, the Company considers this as the best estimateavailable.

The Company uses an investment return assumption of 3.75% per annum to evaluate actuarial liabilities of its conventionalplans. Liabilities of conventional products should in principle reflect a long term conservative interest rate, to reflectadequate conservatism. An investment return of 3.75% per annum is hence considered appropriate.

For Unit - Linked products where the death benefit is paid in form of annuity, the Company uses a discount rate of 6%to evaluate present value of future stream of cash flows. In principle, the interest rate assumption set to discount cashflows should reflect the expected returns on assets backing these liabilities. The Company expects to earn at least a 6%return on assets backing these unit - linked liabilities.

In valuation of unearned premium reserve for unit - linked plans a loading of 10% is applied on rates from EFU (61-66).In opinion of Company’s management and appointed actuary this assumption is prudent.

Since from Annual 2014 onwards the Company shall maintain 100% retention on its books on account of SolvencyMargin, the Company will no longer keep an extra reserve on account of mortality fluctuation. It is the opinion ofCompany’s management and appointed actuary that this assumption is prudent.

The Company reserves for any increase in actuarial liability resulting from the possible reinstatement of lapsed policies.The current liability valuation also takes into account cash value of units pertaining to policies lapsed in last 2 years. Aunit - linked policy lapses when the second annual premium of policy is not received. In principle, cash value of a lapsedpolicy is not surrenderable, as per provisions and conditions, unless the second premium is paid and policy is reinstated.However, the Company recognizes the possibility of these lapsed policies to be reinstated and hence carries out periodicstudies to determine expected renewals. In opinion of the Company’s management and appointed actuary assumptionsused to set aside a liability against these lapsed policies is prudent.

For the purpose of liability adequacy tests the Company makes assumptions relating to expenses. For this purpose regularexpense analyses are carried out based on actual expenses and transaction volumes.

40.1.7 Sensitivity Analysis

The basic assumptions used in valuation of liabilities are mortality, disability, critical illness rates and investment returnsassumed in discounting future cash flows. The table below presents sensitivity results with respect to above mentionedfactors, with their impact observed on policyholder liabilities:

40.1.8 Management of insurance, financial and other risks

40.1.8.1 Insurance Risk

The risk that Company faces is due to randomness in occurrence of insured events. In principle, the Company faces therisk that total claims exceed the reserves set aside at any point in time.

The occurrence of any single claim and amount paid on a single claim is a random event. However, as the number of contractsand independent lives increase, the estimated claim amounts and the number of claims get closer to the actual figures. Thisphenomenon is observed when pool of contracts is large enough and lives are independent. To manage this risk, Companymonitors its concentration risk, on several parameters, and maintains diversity in its portfolio of insurance contracts.

In order to maintain this diversification, the Company takes a number of steps to manage the overall insurance risk ofits portfolio of insurance contracts. The risk of an individual life is broadly assessed in light of its: medical condition, whichinclude living habits, physical health and medical history; occupational condition, which assesses an individual’s job profileand whether any characteristics of the job could have a significant impact on that individuals mortality; financial condition,which determines the individuals ability and affordability to purchase and maintain an insurance contract over the long-term.

The Company identifies and defines parameters in its underwriting strategy to clearly identify individuals (sub-standardlives) which could potentially increase the overall risk of insurance portfolio. Based on certain parameters, such individualspay an extra charge called Extra Mortality Premium, in order to compensate for extra risk added to existing pool of insuredindividuals. These measures allow the Company to charge an individual life in line with the risk contributed to its insuranceportfolio. These underwriting measures also discourage accumulation of sub-standard lives in the insured pool, therebymanaging the overall insurance risk of Company in the long-term.

The Company also manages its geographical concentration of risk. Currently the Company’s geographical concentrationof risk for its Individual Life sales force business is as follows:

The Company also has reinsurance arrangements with its reinsurance partners, to whom the Company passes any excessinsurance risk beyond its retention levels. Limits are continually monitored and kept in line with the overall risk tolerance.This allows the Company to retain the risk according to its risk capacity and minimizes excessive claim payouts. Currently,the total risk retained on individual life products is Rs. 2,000,000 per life for the death risk, Rs. 500,000 for individualtakaful policies and Rs. 1,000,000 for risks associated with critical illness plans. For Group Life, the Company currentlyretains Rs. 2,000,000 of total life risk on each life and Rs. 1,000,000 for Group Family Takaful business. For critical lifecover, 50% of the sum covered is retained for both, Group Life and Group Family Takaful business.

The Company also has arrangements for claims in event of a catastrophic scenario under an Excess of Loss Catastrophecover which is triggered in event of excessive claims, limiting total amount of claims paid out if such an event occurs.

40.1.8.2 Other risks

The Company faces a number of financial risks in its assets and liabilities, apart from insurance risk. These risks can bebroadly categorized as expense risk, lapse risk, market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. This section describes these riskson the Company level and identifies and describes the processes and strategy of management to manage these risks.

40.1.8.3 Expense risk

The risk that the Company faces is that future expenses may be higher than those used in pricing of products causingan expense overrun. The Company mitigates this risk by incorporating a certain level of acceptable conservatism in buildingfuture policy expense factors in pricing and expects to maintain its actual expenses within these limits. Regular monitoringof expenses allows the Company to adjust its pricing in time to account for higher than expected expenses.

The Company closely monitors its expenses by regularly carrying out an expense analysis for its business. The assumptions forfuture policy expense levels are determined from the Company’s most recent annual expense analysis, with an extra marginbuilt-in to account for variability in future expenses. A review of product pricing is carried out each year based on the latestavailable expense factors. Constant monitoring of expenses enables the Company to take corrective actions in time.

Based on the results of expense analysis, the Company apportions its management expenses to different lines of business.

40.1.8.4 Lapse risk

The risk the Company faces is that future persistency rates may be lower than assumed in pricing, thus impacting theemergence of profit from its portfolio of individual life policies. The Company however is confident that this risk isinsignificant as the Company places tremendous emphasis on quality customer services and retention of clients by makingpersistency standard an integral part of the sales force culture. The Company has been consistently maintaining goodlevels of persistency and will continue a similar trend in future.

The Company has robust systems in place to regularly monitor the lapse experience. Regular focus on persistency is embeddedin the Company culture and is an integral part of the monitoring of the sales force performance and remuneration.

40.1.8.5 Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate as a result of changes in market prices, whetherthose changes are caused by factors specific to the individual security, or its issuer, or factors affecting all securities tradedin the market. The Company is exposed to market risk in relation to its investments with respect to products other thanunit linked products (in unit - linked products, investment risk is borne by the policyholder). The Company limits marketrisk by maintaining a diversified portfolio and by continuously monitoring developments in government securities, equityand term finance certificates. The Company, along with minimizing market risk by careful diversification in assets, alsoperiodically carries out an Asset Liability management exercise, to match its duration of assets and liabilities.

40.1.8.6 Credit risk and concentration of credit risk

Credit risk arises when one party fails to discharge its obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss.Concentration of credit risk arises when a number of counter parties have similar types of business activities. As a result,any change in economic, political or other conditions would affect their ability to meet their contractual obligations. TheCompany is exposed to credit risk on premiums receivable from group clients, commission and claims recoverable frominsurers and investment in term finance certificates. The management monitors exposure to credit risk through regularreview of credit exposure, assessing credit worthiness of counter parties and prudent estimates of provision for doubtfuldebts. The Company believes it is not exposed to any major concentration of credit risk.

40.1.8.7 Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company is unable to meet its funding requirements, without incurring a material lossin disposing off its illiquid assets. To guard against this risk, the Company maintains a healthy balance of cash and cashequivalents and readily marketable securities. Liquidity is monitored regularly and assets are frequently rebalanced tomaintain a certain level of liquidity at all times. Going forward, the Company also plans to set up a contingency plan,whereby alternate sources of liquidity will be identified and assets would be analyzed and ranked in their liquidity order,to determine which assets would need to be disposed off first in case of a liquidity crisis.

The expected payouts in liabilities along with maturity profile of assets and liabilities are monitored to ensure that adequateliquidity is maintained within the Company, to avoid the need of liquidating assets below their actual market value.

41.1.4 Fair value

Investments on the balance sheet are carried at fair value except for unquoted investments which are stated at cost.

The Company’s accounting policy on fair value measurements of its investments is discussed in note 3.1.12 to thesefinancial statements.

The Company measures fair values using the following fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs usedin making the measurements:

Level 1: Fair value measurements using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Fair value measurements using inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable forthe asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

Level 3: Fair value measurements using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (i.e.unobservable inputs).
