Misstatements can arisefrom fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably beexpected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and InternationalStandards on Auditing, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticismthroughout the audit. We also:

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements of the Company,whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, andobtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk ofnot detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error,as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override ofinternal control.

Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit proceduresthat are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on theeffectiveness of the Company’s internal control.

2 BASIS OF PREPARATION

(a)

• MFRS 15 ‘Revenue from Contracts with Customers’• IC Interpretation 22 ‘Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration’• IC Interpretation 23 ‘Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments’ (“IC Interpretation 23”)• Amendments to MFRS 4 - Applying MFRS 9 ‘Financial Instruments’ with MFRS 4

‘Insurance Contracts’

The Company, a public limited company incorporated and domiciled in Malaysia, is principally engagedin the underwriting of all classes of general insurance business. In 2017, the Company has disposedoff all units in the wholesale unit trust fund which is a structured entity as disclosed in Note 9 to thefinancial statements. As the Company no longer has control over the structured entity, the structuredentity is de-consolidated from the date that control ceases. Consequently, there is no consolidatedstatement of financial statement as at 31 December 2018. Other than this, there has been nosignificant changes in the nature of the activities during the financial year.

Standards, amendments to published standards and interpretations that are applicable to theCompany that are effective

On 1 January 2018, the Company adopted the following standards mandatory for financial yearbeginning on 1 January 2018:

The adoption of these amendments did not have any impact on the current period or any priorperiod and is not likely to affect future periods.

The immediate and ultimate holding companies are AXA Asia and AXA S.A. (hereinafter referred to as“AXA”), respectively, both are incorporated in France.

The financial statements were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors in accordance with aresolution of the Directors on 20 March 2019.

The financial statements of the Group and Company have been prepared under the historical costconvention except as disclosed in this summary of significant accounting policies, and comply withMalaysian Financial Reporting Standards (“MFRS”), International Financial Reporting Standards andthe requirements of the Companies Act, 2016 in Malaysia.

The Company has met the minimum capital requirements as prescribed by the RBC Framework andthe Guidelines on Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (“ICAAP”) for Insurers as at the dateof the statements of financial position.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with MFRS requires the use of certain criticalaccounting estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities anddisclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the statement of financial position and thereported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported financial year. It also requires theDirectors to exercise their judgement in the process of applying the Group’s and Company’saccounting policies. Although these estimates and judgement are based on the Directors’ bestknowledge of current events and actions, actual results may differ.

The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions andestimates are significant to the financial statements, are disclosed in Note 4 to the financial statements.

(a)

For liabilities, the standard retains most of the MFRS 139 requirements. These includeamortised cost accounting for most financial liabilities, with bifurcation of embeddedderivatives. The main change is that, in cases where the fair value option is taken forfinancial liabilities, the part of a fair value change due to an entity’s own credit risk isrecorded in other comprehensive income rather than the income statement, unless thiscreates an accounting mismatch. MFRS 9 introduces an expected credit losses model onimpairment that replaces the incurred loss impairment model used in MFRS 139. Theexpected credit losses model is forward-looking and eliminates the need for a trigger eventto have occurred before credit losses are recognised.

Standards, amendments to published standards and interpretations that are applicable to theCompany that are effective (continued)

MFRS 9 ‘Financial Instruments’ (effective from 1 January 2018) will replace MFRS 139“Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement”.

MFRS 9 retains but simplifies the mixed measurement model in MFRS 139 and establishesthree primary measurement categories for financial assets: amortised cost, fair valuethrough profit or loss and fair value through other comprehensive income (“OCI”). The basisof classification depends on the entity’s business model and the contractual cash flowcharacteristics of the financial asset. Investments in equity instruments are alwaysmeasured at fair value through profit or loss with an irrevocable option at inception topresent changes in fair value in OCI (provided the instrument is not held for trading). A debtinstrument is measured at amortised cost only if the entity is holding it to collect contractualcash flows and the cash flows represent principal and interest.

The amendments to MFRS 4 allow entities to avoid temporary volatility in profit or loss thatmight result from adopting MFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” before the forthcoming newinsurance contracts standard. This is because certain financial assets have to be measuredat fair value through profit or loss under MFRS 9; whereas, under MFRS 4 ‘InsuranceContracts’, the related liabilities from insurance contracts are often measured on amortisedcost basis.

(b)

• MFRS 16 ‘Leases’ (effective from 1 January 2019).

MFRS 16 ‘Leases’ supersedes MFRS 117 ‘Leases’ and the related interpretations.

MFRS 16 eliminates the classification of leases by the lessee as either finance leases (onbalance sheet) or operating leases (off balance sheet). MFRS 16 requires a lessee torecognise a “right-of-use” of the underlying asset and a lease liability reflecting future leasepayments for most leases.

The right-of-use asset is depreciated in accordance with the principle in MFRS 116‘Property, Plant and Equipment’ and the lease liability is accreted over time with interestexpense recognised in the income statement. For lessors, MFRS 16 retains most of therequirements in MFRS 117. Lessors continue to classify all leases as either operatingleases or finance leases and account for them differently.

The Company has yet to assess the full impact of MFRS 16 onto the Company’s accountingpolicies.

Under MFRS 16, a lease is a contract (or part of a contract) that conveys the right to controlthe use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

The temporary exemption enables eligible entities to defer the implementation date ofMFRS 9 for annual periods beginning before 1 January 2021 at the latest. An entity mayapply the temporary exemption from MFRS 9 if its activities are predominantly connectedwith insurance whilst the overlay approach allows an entity to adjust profit or loss for eligiblefinancial assets by removing any accounting volatility to other comprehensive income thatmay arise from applying MFRS 9.

An entity can apply the temporary exemption from MFRS 9 from annual periods beginningon or after 1 January 2018. An entity may start applying the overlay approach when itapplies MFRS 9 for the first time.

The Company qualifies for the temporary exemption from applying MFRS 9 and will deferand adopt MFRS 9 together with MFRS 17, Insurance Contracts for the financial yearbeginning on or after 1 January 2021 (Note 33 to the financial statements).

Standards, amendments to published standards and interpretations that are applicable to theCompany that are effective (continued)

The amendments to MFRS 4 provide 2 different approaches for entities: (i) a temporaryexemption from MFRS 9 for entities that meet specific requirements; and (ii) the overlayapproach. Both approaches are optional.

Standards, amendments to published standards and interpretations to existing standards that areapplicable and relevant to the Company but not yet effective

MFRS 9 ‘Financial Instruments’ (effective from 1 January 2018) replaces MFRS 139“Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” (continued).

(b)

Alternative measurement models are provided for the different insurance coverages:-

- Variable Fee Approach should be applied for insurance contracts that specify a linkbetween payments to the policyholder and the returns on the underlying items

The requirements of MFRS 17 align the presentation of revenue with other industries.Revenue is allocated to the periods in proportion to the value of the expected coverage andother services that the insurer provides in the period, and claims are presented whenincurred. Investment components are excluded from revenue and claims.

Insurers are required to disclose information about amounts, judgements and risks arisingfrom insurance contracts.

Standards, amendments to published standards and interpretations to existing standards that areapplicable and relevant to the Company but not yet effective (continued)

MFRS 17 'Insurance Contracts' (effective from 1 January 2021) replaces MFRS 4'Insurance Contracts'.

MFRS 17 applies to insurance contracts issued, to all reinsurance contracts and toinvestment contracts with discretionary participating features if an entity also issuesinsurance contracts. For fixed-fee service contracts whose primary purpose is the provisionof services, an entity has an accounting policy choice to account for them in accordancewith either MFRS 17 or MFRS 15 “Revenue”. An entity is allowed to account financialguarantee contracts in accordance with MFRS 17 if the entity has asserted explicitly that itregarded them as insurance contracts. Insurance contracts, (other than reinsurance) wherethe entity is the policyholder are not within the scope of MFRS 17. Embedded derivativesand distinct investment and service components should be ‘unbundled’ and accounted forseparately in accordance with the related MFRSs.

MFRS 17 requires a current measurement model where estimates are remeasured at eachreporting period. The measurement is based on the building blocks of discounted,probability-weighted cash flows, a risk adjustment and a contractual service margin (“CSM”)representing the unearned profit of the contract. An entity has a policy choice to recognisethe impact of changes in discount rates and other assumptions that related to financial riskseither in profit or loss or in other comprehensive income.

(a) Subsidiaries

(b) Investment in a subsidiary

In the Group’s separate financial statements, investment in a subsidiary is stated at cost lessaccumulated impairment losses. Where an indication of impairment exists, the carrying amountof the investment is assessed and written down immediately to its recoverable amount. Seeaccounting policy Note 3(g) to the financial statements on impairment of financial assets. Theamount due from subsidiary of which the Company does not expect repayment in the foreseeablefuture are considered as part of the Company’s investments in the subsidiary.

Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the Group has control. TheGroup controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from itsinvolvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over theentity.

Subsidiaries are consolidated using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisitionmethod of accounting, subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control istransferred to the Group and are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases. The cost ofan acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued andliabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to theacquisition.

Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a businesscombination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of theextent of any minority interest. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of theGroup’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired at the date of acquisition is reflected asgoodwill. See accounting policy Note 3(d) to the financial statements on goodwill. If the cost ofacquisition is less than the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the subsidiary acquired, thegain is recognised directly in the statement of income.

Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Groupcompanies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated. This may indicate animpairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changedwhere necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

The gain or loss on disposal of a subsidiary which is the difference between net disposalproceeds and the Group’s share of its net assets as of the date of disposal including thecumulative amount of any exchange differences that relate to the subsidiary, is recognised in thestatement of income attributable to the parent.

(c) Property, plant and equipment

Freehold building 50 yearsMotor vehicles 5 - 6 yearsOffice and computer equipment 3 - 5 yearsFurniture, fixtures and fittings 5 - 10 years

Land and buildings are initially stated at cost and subsequently revalued by the Directors, basedon independent valuation of the open market value on the existing use basis carried out byprofessional valuers. The valuation of the land and buildings is carried out once in every threeyears or earlier if the carrying values of the revalued assets are materially higher and/or lowerthan the market values.

Land and buildings, which are substantially occupied by the Company for their operations, areclassified under property, plant and equipment.

When the land and buildings are revalued, any accumulated depreciation at the date ofrevaluation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset. The net amount is thenrestated as the revalued amount of the asset.

The surplus arising on revaluation is credited to an asset revaluation reserve account except thata surplus, to the extent that such surplus is related to and not greater than a deficit arising onrevaluation previously recorded as an expense, is credited to the income statement. A deficitarising on revaluation is recognised as an expense except that, to the extent that such a deficit isrelated to a surplus which was previously recorded as a credit to the asset revaluation reserveaccount and which has not been subsequently reversed or utilised, it is charged directly to thataccount.

Freehold land is not depreciated as it has infinite life. Depreciation of property and equipment isprovided for on a straight-line basis to write off the cost of each asset to its residual value overthe following estimated useful lives:

The residual values and useful lives of property, plant and equipment are reviewed, and adjustedif appropriate, at each date of the statement of financial position.

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulatedimpairment losses.

All items of property and equipment are initially stated at cost. Subsequent costs are included inthe asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it isprobable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and thecost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part isderecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during thefinancial year in which they are incurred.

Subsequent costs recognition, property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulateddepreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.

(e) Intangible assets - software

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amounts andare credited or charged in the statement of income.

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquisition of the subsidiary over the fair value ofthe Company's share of the identifiable net assets at the date of acquisition.

At each date of the statement of financial position, the Company assess whether there is anyindication of impairment. If such indications exist, an analysis is performed to assess whether thecarrying amount of the asset is fully recoverable. A write-down is made if the carrying amountexceeds the recoverable amount. See accounting policy Note 3(h) to the financial statements onimpairment of non-financial assets.

Goodwill is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairmentlosses. Impairment losses on goodwill are not reversed. See accounting policy Note 3(h) to thefinancial statements on impairment of non-financial assets.

The Company allocates goodwill to the combined general insurance business as a whole, whichhas been identified as a cash-generating unit.

Where computer software is not an integral part of a related item of computer hardware, thesoftware is treated as an intangible asset. Capitalised internal-use software costs include externaldirect costs of materials and services consumed in developing or obtaining the software, payrolland payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with and who devotesubstantial time to the project. Capitalisation of these costs ceases no later than the point atwhich the project is substantially completed and ready for its intended purpose. These costs areamortised over their expected useful life of 4 years on a straight-line basis, with the useful livesbeing reviewed annually.

Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units for the purpose of impairment testing. Theallocation is made to each of the cash-generating units ("CGUs"), or groups of CGUs that isexpected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

(f) Investments and financial assets

(i) LAR

(ii) AFS

The Company classify their investments into loans and receivables (“LAR”) or available-for-sale(“AFS”) financial assets. Classification of the financial assets is determined at initial recognition.

LAR are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are notquoted in an active market. These financial assets are initially recognised at fair value plusall transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition. After initial measurement, LARare measured at amortised cost, using the effective yield method, less allowance forimpairment. Gains and losses are recognised in the statement of income when the financialassets are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process.

AFS financial assets are investments that are not classified as fair value through profit orloss, held-to-maturity or loans and receivables. AFS financial assets initially recorded at fairvalue. After initial measurement, the AFS financial assets are re-measured at fair value.

Interest from AFS financial assets calculated using the effective interest method, isrecognised in the statement of income. Any gains or losses arising from a change in fairvalue, net of income tax, are recognised directly in statement of comprehensive income,except for impairment losses. When the AFS financial assets are derecognised, thecumulative fair value gains or losses previously recognised in other comprehensive incomeare transferred to the statement of income as net realised gains or losses on AFS financialassets.

(g) Impairment of financial assets

(i) Financial assets carried at amortised cost

(ii) Financial assets carried at cost

(iii) Financial assets carried at fair value

If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decreasecan be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, thepreviously recognised impairment loss is reversed by adjusting the allowance account. Theamount of the reversal is recognised in the statement of income.

If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on securities carried at cost (e.g.equity instruments or which there is no active market or whose fair value cannot be reliablymeasured) has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the differencebetween the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flowsdiscounted at the current market rate of return for similar securities. Such impairmentlosses shall not be reversed.

In the case of AFS financial assets, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of thefinancial asset below its cost is considered in determining whether the assets are impaired.If any such evidence exists for financial asset held at AFS, the cumulative loss, measuredas the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less anyimpairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in the statement of income isremoved from statement of comprehensive income and recognised in the statement ofincome.

The Company assess at each date of the statement of financial position whether there isobjective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. A financialasset is impaired and impairment losses are incurred if, and only if, there is objective evidence ofimpairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a ‘loss event’) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flowsof the financial asset that can be reliably estimated.

If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on financial asset carried at amortisedcost has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between theasset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted atthe financial asset’s original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset isreduced through the use of an allowance account and the amount of the loss is recognisedin the statement of income.

If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of a debt instrument classified as AFS increasesand the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment losswas recognised in the statement of income, the impairment loss is reversed through thestatement of income. Impairment losses previously recognised in the statement of incomeon equity instruments are not reversed through the statement of income.

An impairment loss is charged to the income statement immediately.

(i) Insurance receivables

(j) Cash and cash equivalents

(k) Share capital

(l) Borrowings

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance ofnew shares and options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and bank balances, excluding fixed and call depositswhich are held for investment purpose.

The carrying values of assets that are subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenthere is an indication that the assets might be impaired. Impairment is measured by comparingthe carrying values of the assets with their recoverable amounts. The recoverable amount is thehigher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value in use, which is measured by reference todiscounted cash flows. Recoverable amounts are estimated for individual assets, or, if it is notpossible, for the cash-generating unit. Non-financial assets that suffered impairment arereviewed for possible reversal of impairment at each reporting date.

Insurance receivables are recognised when due and measured on initial recognition at the fairvalue. Subsequent to initial recognition, insurance receivables are measured at amortised cost,using the effective yield method.

If there is objective evidence that the insurance receivable is impaired, the Company reduce thecarrying amount of the insurance receivable accordingly and recognise that impairment loss inthe statement of income. The Company gather the objective evidence that an insurancereceivable is impaired using the same processes adopted for financial assets carried atamortised cost. The impairment loss is calculated under the same method used for thesefinancial assets.

A subsequent increase in the recoverable amount of an asset is treated as a reversal of theprevious impairment loss and is recognised to the extent of the carrying amount of the asset thatwould have been determined (net of amortisation and depreciation) had no impairment loss beenrecognised. The reversal is recognised in the statement of income immediately. Impairment losson goodwill is not reversed.

Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings aresubsequently stated at amortised costs, any difference between the proceeds (net of redemptioncost) and the redemption value is recognised in the deferments of income over the period of theborrowings using the effective interest yield. All other borrowing costs are recognised instatement of income in the period which they are incurred.

Insurance contracts are those that transfer significant insurance risk. An insurance contract is acontract under which the Company (the insurer) have accepted significant insurance risk fromanother party (the policyholders) by agreeing to compensate the policyholders if a specifieduncertain future event (the insured event) adversely affects the policyholders. As a generalguideline, the Company determine whether they have significant insurance risk, by comparingclaims payable on the occurrence of an insured event with claims payable if the insured eventhad not occurred.

The general insurance underwriting results are determined for each class of business after takinginto account reinsurances, commissions, unearned premiums and claims incurred.

Premiums are recognised in a financial year in respect of the risks assumed during that particularfinancial year. Premiums from direct business are recognised during the financial year upon theissuance of debit notes or policies. Premiums in respect of risks incepted for which debit notes orpolicies have not been raised as of the date of the statement of financial position are accrued atthat date as pipeline premiums.

Inward treaty reinsurance premiums are recognised on the basis of periodic advices receivedfrom ceding insurers.

Provision for claims liabilities is made for the estimated costs of all claims together with relatedexpenses less reinsurance recoveries, in respect of claims notified but not settled at the date ofthe statement of financial position. Provision is also made for the cost of claims, together withrelated expenses, incurred but not reported at the date of the statement of financial position,based on an actuarial valuation.

UPR represent the portion of the net premiums of insurance policies written that relate to theunexpired periods of the policies at the end of the financial period.

In determining UPR at the date of the statement of financial position, the method that mostaccurately reflected the actual unearned premium is used, as follows:

Reinsurance

Reinsurance contracts that do not transfer significant insurance risk are accounted for directlythrough the statement of financial position. These are deposit assets or financial liabilities that arerecognised based on the consideration paid or received less any explicit identified premiums orfees to be retained by the reinsured. Investment income on these contracts is accounted forusing the effective yield method when accrued.

Reinsurance assets or liabilities are derecognised when the contractual rights are extinguished orexpire or when the contract is transferred to another party.

Premiums and claims on assumed reinsurance are recognised as revenue or expenses in thesame manner as they would be if the reinsurance were considered direct business. Reinsuranceliabilities represent balances due to reinsurance companies. Amount payable are estimated in amanner consistent with the related insurance contract.

The Group and the Company also assume reinsurance risk in the normal course of business forgeneral insurance contracts when applicable.

Gains or losses on buying reinsurance are recognised in the statement of income immediately atthe date of purchase and are not amortised.

Reinsurance assets are reviewed for impairment at each reporting date or more frequently whenan indication of impairment arises during the reporting period. Impairment occurs when there isobjective evidence as a result of an event that occurred after initial recognition of the reinsuranceasset that the Group and the Company may not receive all outstanding amounts due under theterms of the contract and the event has a reliably measurable impact on the amounts that theGroup and the Company will receive from the reinsurer. The impairment loss is recorded in thestatement of income.

Ceded reinsurance arrangements do not relieve the Group and the Company from theirobligations to policyholders. Premiums and claims are presented on a gross basis for both cededand assumed reinsurance.

The Group and the Company cede insurance risk in the normal course of business for all of itsbusinesses. Reinsurance assets represent balances due from reinsurance companies. Amountsrecoverable from reinsurers are estimated in a manner consistent with the outstanding claimsprovision or settled claims associated with the reinsurer’s policies and are in accordance with therelated reinsurance contracts.

Insurance contract liabilities

These liabilities comprise claims liabilities and premiums liabilities.

General insurance contract liabilities are recognised when contracts are entered into andpremiums are charged.

Claims liabilities are based on the estimated ultimate cost of all claims incurred but not settled atthe date of the statement of financial position, whether reported or not, together with relatedclaims handling costs and reduction for the expected value of salvage and other recoveries.Delays can be experienced in the notification and settlement of certain types of claims, therefore,the ultimate cost of these claims cannot be known with certainty at the date of the statement offinancial position. The liability is calculated at the reporting date using a range of standardactuarial claim projection techniques based on empirical data and current assumptions that mayinclude a margin for adverse deviation. The liability is not discounted for the time value of money.No provision for equalisation or catastrophe reserve is recognised. The liabilities arederecognised when the contract expires, is discharged or is cancelled.

The provision for unearned premiums represents premiums received for risks that have not yetexpired. Generally, the reserve is released over the term of the contract and is recognised aspremium income.

At each reporting date, the Company review the unexpired risks and a liability adequacy test isperformed to determine whether there is any overall excess of expected claims and associatedexpenses (policy administration and claims handing) incurred in future over unearned premiums.This calculation uses current estimates of future contractual cash flows (taking into considerationcurrent loss ratio and general policy administration and claims handling expense ratios) expectedto be paid out, loaded with a risk margin to cope with the uncertainty surrounding the estimates. Ifthese estimates show that the carrying amount of the unearned premiums is inadequate, thedeficiency is recognised in the statement of income by setting up a provision for liabilityadequacy.

Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.

(p) Income tax

Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will beavailable against which the deductible temporary differences or unused tax losses can be utilised.

Deferred tax is recognised in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arisingbetween the amounts attributed to assets and liabilities for tax purpose and their carryingamounts in the financial statements. However, deferred tax is not accounted if it arises from initialrecognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at thetime of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss.

Current tax expense is determined according to the tax laws in Malaysia and includes all taxesbased upon the taxable profits and is measured using the tax rates that have been enacted at thereporting date. Current tax is recognised in the statement of income.

Gains or losses arising on disposal of financial assets are credited or charged to the statement ofincome.

Rental income is recognised on a time proportion basis except where default in payment of renthas already occurred and the rent due remains outstanding, in which case recognition of rentalincome is suspended. Subsequent to suspension, rental income is recognised on receipt basisuntil all arrears have been paid.

Other interest income, including amortisation of premiums or accretion of discounts, isrecognised on a time proportion basis that takes into account the effective yield of the asset.

When a loan and receivable is impaired, the Company reduce the carrying amount to itsrecoverable amount, being the estimated future cash flow discounted at the original effectiveinterest rate of the instrument, and continue unwinding the discount as interest income. Interestincome on impaired loan and receivables are recognised using the original effective interest rate.

Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method. The effective interest rate is therate that discounts estimated future cash receipts or payments through the expected life of thefinancial instrument or, when appropriate, a shorter period to its carrying amount. The calculationincludes significant fees and transaction costs that are integral to the effective interest rate, aswell as premiums or discounts.

Deferred tax is recognised in the statement of income except when it arises from a transactionwhich is recognised in other comprehensive income, in which case, the deferred tax is alsocharged or credited to other comprehensive income.

Deferred tax is determined using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted bythe date of the statement of financial position and are expected to apply when the relateddeferred tax asset is realised or deferred tax liability is settled.

Provisions are recognised when the Company have a present obligation as a result of a pastevent and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will berequired to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of the amount can be made.

Leases of assets where a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retainedby the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases arecharged to the statement of income on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

When an operating lease is terminated before the lease period has expired, any paymentrequired to be made to the lessor by way of penalty is recognised as an expense in the financialyear in which termination takes place.

Dividends are recognised as liabilities when the obligation to pay is established in which thedividends are declared and approved by BNM and the Company’s shareholders. No provision ismade for a proposed dividend.

Items included in the financial statements of the Group and Company are measured using thecurrency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the “functionalcurrency”). The financial statements are presented in Ringgit Malaysia, which is the Group’s andCompany’s functional and presentation currency.

All transactions in a currency other than the functional currency (“foreign currency”) are convertedinto Ringgit Malaysia at the rates of exchange prevailing on the transaction dates. Foreigncurrency monetary assets and liabilities at the date of the statement of financial position aretranslated at the rates of exchange prevailing at that date. Exchange differences arising from thesettlement of foreign currency transactions and from the translation of foreign currency monetaryassets and liabilities are included in the statement of income.

(i)

(ii)

(iii)

(iv)

Fair value measurements are classified using a fair value hierarchy based on the observability ofthe inputs used in the fair value measurement.

The Company do not recognise a contingent liability but disclose its existence in the financialstatements. A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whoseexistence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain futureevents beyond the control of the Company or a present obligation that is not recognised becauseit is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation. A contingentliability also arises in the extremely rare case where there is a liability that cannot be recognisedbecause it cannot be measured reliably.

A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events whose existence will beconfirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyondthe control of the Company. The Company do not recognise a contingent asset but disclose itsexistence where inflows of economic benefits are probable, but not virtually certain.

The carrying amounts for other financial assets and liabilities with a maturity period of lessthan one year are assumed to approximate their fair values.

The fair values of fixed rate loans are estimated by discounting future expected cash flows,taking into consideration market conditions and contractual terms of these loans.

The fair values of Malaysian Government securities and unquoted corporate debt securitiesare based on the indicative market prices.

The fair values of quoted equity securities and real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) arebased on quoted market prices.

(y) Business combination under common control

A level is assigned to each fair value measurement based on the lowest level input significant tothe fair value measurement in its entirety. The three-level hierarchy is defined as follows:

Fair value measurements that reflect unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets foridentical assets and liabilities that the Company have the ability to access at themeasurement date. Valuations are based on quoted prices reflecting markettransactions involving assets or liabilities identical to those being measured.

Fair value measurements using significant non market observable inputs. Theseinclude valuations for assets and liabilities that are derived using data, some or all ofwhich is not market observable, including assumptions about risk.

Fair value measurements using inputs other than quoted prices included within Level1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Thoseinclude quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active market markets, quotedprices for identical assets and liabilities in inactive markets, inputs that are observablethat are not prices (such as interest rates, credit risks, etc) and inputs that are derivedfrom or corroborated by observable market data.

The transfer of business from the subsidiary has been accounted for as business combinationunder common control using the predecessor method of accounting. Under the predecessormethod of accounting, the consolidated statements of income include the results of each of thecombining entities from the date of the combinations. The assets and liabilities of the combiningentities are accounted for based on the carrying amounts from the perspective of the commoncontrolling party or the combining entities if the common controlling party does not prepareconsolidated financial statements. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the aggregatecarrying amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the combination is taken to equity.

A similar treatment applies in the Company’s separate financial statements when assets andliabilities representing the underlying businesses under common control are directly acquired bythe Company. In accounting for the business combination in the Company’s separate financialstatements, the excess of the cost of acquisition over the aggregate carrying amounts of assetsand liabilities as of the date of the combination is taken to equity.

4 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

(a) Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

Claims liabilities

Impairment of goodwill

The Company assess the impairment of goodwill on an annual basis in accordance with itsaccounting policy in Note 3(d) to the financial statements. The recoverable amount of the goodwillis assessed based on its value-in-use. Value-in-use is determined using the present value ofestimated future cash flows expected to be generated from future new business, using theestimates and key assumptions as disclosed in Note 7 to the financial statements.

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated by the Directors and are based on historicalexperience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonableunder the circumstances.

The Company make estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accountingestimates will, by definition, rarely equal the related actual results. The estimates andassumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amountsof assets and liabilities within the next financial year are outlined below.

The key assumptions and the sensitivity analysis of claims liabilities are disclosed in Note 31 tothe financial statements.

A risk margin for uncertainty is added to the central estimate of outstanding claims. A centralestimate is an estimate of the level of claims provision that is intended to contain no intentionalunder or over estimation. In simple terms, the central estimate i.e. equally likely to be too high(more than adequate) or too low (inadequate) and is commonly described as providing a 50%probability of adequacy. As the Company require a higher degree of certainty that estimates willbe adequate over time, a risk margin is added to the central estimate of outstanding claims.

Estimation of the ultimate cost of certain liabilities claims is a complex process. The Companyapply the AXA Group “Analyse” tool or use an external actuary, to determine the liability within thechain ladder model. Some factors that affect the liability estimation process are the inconsistentcourt resolutions and jurisprudence that has broadened the intent and scope coverage of theprotections offered in the insurance contracts issued by the Company.

The estimation of the ultimate liability arising from claims made under insurance contracts is theCompany’s most critical accounting estimate. There are several sources of uncertainty that needto be considered in the estimate of the liability that the Company will ultimately pay for suchclaims.

4 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

(b) Critical judgement in applying the entity’s accounting policies

In determining and applying accounting policies, judgement is often required in respect of itemswhere the choice of specific accounting policy could materially affect the reported results andfinancial position of the Company. However, the Directors are of the view that there are currentlyno accounting policies which require significant judgement to be exercised in their application.

Cost/Net book valueAt 31 December 165,822 165,822

The freehold land and freehold building, which are used as the Company’s training facilities, were lastrevalued in 2017 by an independent professional valuer, James Wong Kwong Onn, member of theInstitution of Surveyors, Malaysia of VPC Alliance (KL) Sdn Bhd at open market value on an existinguse basis.

The net book value of the revalued land and building had these assets been carried at cost lessaccumulated depreciation is not disclosed due to the absence of historical records.

The freehold land and building, which fair value is under Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, is measuredusing the sales comparison approach. Sales prices of comparable land and buildings in close proximityare adjusted for differences in key attributes such as land area and location and time factor. The mostsignificant input into this valuation approach is price per square foot.

The goodwill has been allocated to the cash generating unit, being the combined general insurancebusiness as a whole. The recoverable amount of the goodwill has been determined based on value-in-use calculations using cash flow projections based on the strategic plan 2019 - 2020 approved bysenior management covering a three years period. The projected cash flows beyond 2 years aredetermined on the assumptions that earnings level will remain fairly stable for the period covering 2021to 2027 (2017: 2021 to 2027). The projected cash flows are determined by budgeted profitability basedon past performance and management’s expectations of market developments.

The key assumptions used in the value-in-use calculation are as follows:

(a)

(b)

(c)

(d)

(e) Terminal value is determined based on the present value of the net assets at the end of 2018.

Based on the assessment of value-in-use for the cash generating unit, the Company do not expect thatany reasonable change in the key assumptions will cause the carrying amount of the goodwill to exceedits recoverable amount, resulting in impairment of goodwill.

Loss ratios have been projected after taking into account management’s strategy for premiumgrowth as well as past developments with respect to loss development patterns. The loss ratiosare expected to remain at the existing levels.

Premium growth rates have been projected on the basis of management’s expectations of marketdevelopments taking into account the business plan which reflect future expansion plans andsynergies arising from integration of the business of the subsidiary acquired with existingbusiness of the Company.

A discount rate of 9.6% (2017: 9.5%) has been considered based on the weighted cost of capitalof the Company.

The expense projections including projection of acquisition cost/commission have been doneafter taking into account the projected inflation over the strategic business plan period as well asprojected portfolio growth. The projected portfolio mix has also been considered in determiningthe projection of acquisition cost/commission.

The income tax for the Shareholders’ and General funds are calculated based on the tax rate of 24%(2017: 24%) of the estimated assessable profit for the financial year.

A reconciliation of taxation applicable to profit before taxation at the statutory income tax rate to tax atthe effective tax rate is as follows:

On 1 January 2017, the Company early adopted IC Interpretation 23 for financial year beginning on orafter 1 January 2017. The IFRS Interpretations Committee developed IFRIC 23 to clarify the accounting for uncertainties in income taxes. This interpretation is to be applied to the determination of taxableprofit (tax loss), tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits and tax rates, when there isuncertainty over income tax treatments under MFRS 112. This interpretation is effective for annualreporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. However, earlier application is permitted.

The amount payable to the IRB of RM9,909,147 has been made in January 2018.

The Inland Revenue Board (“IRB”) had on 22 December 2017, issued to the Company notices ofadditional assessment (Form JA) for the years of assessment (“YA”) 2011 and 2012, taxing thedividend income received under section 60(8) instead of Section 4(c) of the Income Tax Act (“ITA”) anddisallowing the tax deduction on interest expenses and management expenses. The additional taxpayable by the Company, inclusive of penalty, was RM9,909,147 and similarly accrued in the financialstatements.

Subsequently on 8 January 2019, the Company received another Form JA dated 28 December 2018for YA 2013 from the IRB for the following tax adjustments:

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit for the financial year attributable toordinary equity holders of the Group and Company by the weighted average number of ordinary sharesin issue during the financial year:

Upon consulting its legal counsel, the Company is of the view that there are reasonable grounds andstrong justifications to challenge the basis and validity of the notices of additional assessment raisedand the penalty imposed by the IRB. The tax recoverable amount of RM15,993,549 was similarlyaccounted for as a tax recoverable, offsetting the accrued position above.

(a) Key assumptions

2018 2017

The principal assumption underlying the estimation of liabilities is the future claims development will follow a similar pattern to the past claimsdevelopment experience. This includes assumptions in respect of ultimate loss ratios, case reserve, provision of risk margin for adverse deviation(“PRAD”) and claims handling expenses.

Additional qualitative judgements are used to assess the extent to which the past trends may not apply in the future, for example, isolated occurrence,changes in market factors such as public attitude to claiming, economic conditions, as well as internal factors, such as, portfolio mix, policy conditionsand claims handling procedures. Judgement is further used to assess the extent to which external factors, such as judicial decisions and governmentlegislation affect the estimates.

The insurance claim liabilities calculation is based on key assumptions. Variation of theseassumptions may vary the amount of claim liabilities and impact significantly the results. Asillustrated below, sensitivity analyses are carried out in order to understand how key assumptions(i.e. ultimate loss ratios of the last 3 accident years, case reserve, PRAD and claims handlingexpenses) impact the claim liability. It is worth mentioning that these 4 assumptions do notrepresent an exhaustive list but are likely to be the most important.

The analysis below is performed for reasonably possible movements in key assumptions with allother assumptions held constant, showing the impact on gross liabilities, net liabilities, profitbefore tax and equity (profit after tax).

(c) Claims development tables

The following tables show estimates of cumulative incurred claims including both claims notified(settled or not yet settled) and IBNR for each successive accident year at each date of thestatement of financial position, together with cumulative payments to-date. The past year claimspattern is used to assess future claims pattern and therefore estimating the ultimate claims foreach accident year. Actuarial methods such as Chain Ladder but also other quantitativeinformation (such as market loss ratio benchmarks) and qualitative information (such asunderwriter’s and claim manager’s feedback) are taken into account in the assessments.

In setting provisions for claims, the Company assess the future experience and adjust the level ofreserve to cover future uncertainties such as civil law changes and general claims inflation. Riskmargin is also provided to cope with this uncertainty. The higher the uncertainty, the higher therisk margin is. This uncertainty depend on the line of business (short tail or long tail), the natureof the risks (high sum insured or low sum insured) as well as the accident year (the more recentthe accident year is, the higher the uncertainty associated with the ultimate claims experience is).

Credit risk

- Reinsurer’s share of insurance liabilities- Amounts due from reinsurers’ in respect of claims already paid- Amounts due from insurance contract holders- Amounts due from insurance intermediaries, and- Counterparty risk with respect to derivative transactions and custodian

Concentration of credit risk exists when changes in geographic, economic or industry factors similarlyaffect groups of counterparties whose aggregate credit exposure is material in relation to theCompany’s total exposures. The Company’s portfolio of financial assets is diversified alonggeographic, industry and product sectors. The Company have been monitoring the concentration riskby adopting appropriate risk control measures, such as setting limit on exposures to individualcounterparty.

The Company are exposed to financial risks through their financial assets, reinsurance assets andinsurance liabilities. In particular, the key financial risk is that the proceeds from the financial assetsand reinsurance assets are not sufficient to fund the obligations arising from the insurance contracts.The important components of these financial risks are interest rate risk, equity price risk, credit risk,liquidity risk and currency risk.

The Company have exposures to credit risk, which is the risk that a counterparty will not be able to payamounts in full when due. Key areas where the Company are exposed to credit risks are:

The Company structure the levels of credit risk they accept by placing limits on the exposure to asingle counterparty, or group of counterparties. Such risks are subject to regular review by themanagement.

The Company entered into custodial agreements with Standard Chartered Bank Malaysia Berhad andAmFunds Management Berhad, whose credit rating is AAA and AA respectively whereby bothcompanies provide safekeeping services for the Company’s investment assets (equities and bonds).

Reinsurance is used to manage insurance risk. This does not, however, discharge the Company’sliability as primary insurer. If a reinsurer fails to pay a claim for any reason, the Company remain liablefor the payment to the policyholder. The creditworthiness of reinsurers is considered on a regular basisby reviewing their financial strength prior to finalisation of any contract.

The Company are exposed to daily calls on its available cash resources mainly from claims arising from short-term insurance contracts. Liquidity risk is therisk that cash may not be available to pay obligations when due at a reasonable time.

The Company manage liquidity risk by holding sufficient liquid assets (e.g. cash and debt securities) of appropriate quality to ensure that short term fundingrequirements are covered within prudent times. In addition, the Company regularly conduct stress-tests on its liquidity position.

The tables below summarise the estimated maturity profile of the financial assets, financial liabilities, reinsurance assets and claim liabilities based onremaining undiscounted contractual obligations.

For insurance contract liabilities and reinsurance assets, maturity profiles are determined based on estimated timing of net cash outflows from the recognisedinsurance liabilities. Premium liabilities and the reinsurers’ share of premium liabilities have been excluded from the analysis as they do not contain anycontractual obligations.

Interest-rate risk

Foreign currency risk

The Company’s equity risk position arises from the holdings of certain equity securities listed in theBursa Malaysia Securities Berhad. The Company have been monitoring its concentration risk byadopting appropriate risk control measures.

The analysis below is performed for reasonably possible movements in equity price with all othervariables held constant, showing the impact of statement of income and equity (due to changes in fairvalue of AFS financial assets).

2018 2017

Short term insurance liabilities are not directly sensitive to the level of market interest rates, as theyare undiscounted and contractually non-interest-bearing. However, due to the time value of money andimpact of interest rates on the level of bodily injury and certain liability claims incurred by theCompany’s insurance contract holders (where an increase of interest rates would normally produce ahigher insurance liability), the Company match the liabilities by using portfolios of debt securities withmean duration of 2 - 3 years.

The Company’s interest rate risk mainly arises from investment in AFS debt securities which arerecorded at fair value. The impact on profit before tax at +/- 50 basis point change in the interest rate,with all other variables held consistent, is insignificant to the Company given that there are minimalfloating rate financial instruments.

As the Company’s business is conducted primarily in Malaysia, the financial assets are also primarilymaintained in Malaysia and denominated in the local currency as its insurance contract liabilities.

As the Company’s main foreign currency risk from recognised assets and liabilities arises fromreinsurance transactions for which the balances are expected to be settled and realised in less than ayear, the impact arising from sensitivity in foreign currency exchange rates is deemed minimal as theCompany have no significant concentration of foreign currency risk.
