This section does not purport to be complete and is taken from, and is qualified by, the remainder of this Circular. Terms not otherwise defined in this section have the same meaning as used in the “Definitions” section of the Circular.
1. THE CLAW‐BACK RIGHTS OFFER
1.1 Introduction and terms of the Claw‐back Rights Offer
At the 13th Annual General Meeting of the Company held on 05 July 2012, shareholders authorised the Board of Directors to proceed with the
recapitalisation of Cavmont Bank Limited, the wholly owned subsidiary of Cavmont Capital Holdings Zambia PLC, to comply with the new BoZ
capital adequacy framework announced on 30 January 2012, by raising up to a maximum of Zambian Kwacha 90,000,000,000 (ZMK 90 billion).
On 28 September 2012, CCHZ issued 17,009,814,181 ordinary shares to CIH and 13,619,471,534 ordinary shares to Mukumbi at a price of ZMK
1.40 per share as the first step towards recapitalisation of Cavmont Bank Limited on the basis of Claw‐back Rights Offer by CCHZ.
Shareholders were subsequently notified by way of the First and Second Announcements published in the press on 19 October 2012 and 29
October 2012 respectively, that in order to provide equal opportunity to all shareholders to participate in the recapitalisation of Cavmont Bank
Limited, CCHZ was undertaking a Renounceable Claw‐back Rights Offer.
The second step and final stage of the Claw‐back Rights Offer is now to offer the Claw Back Rights Shares to all shareholders of CCHZ other
than CIH and Mukumbi.
Accordingly, CCHZ shareholders are now offered the right to claw back their shareholding in CCHZ by participating in this Claw‐back Rights
Offer to acquire the Claw Back Rights Shares as ordinary shares in CCHZ on the basis of 90 Claw‐back Rights Offer Shares for every 7 CCHZ
ordinary shares held on the Record Date at a price of ZMK 1.40 per Claw‐back Rights Offer Share.
All shareholders who are owed dividends which were declared but not paid by the Company, may use those unpaid dividends to take up Claw
Back Rights Shares at a price of ZMK 1.40 per Claw‐back Rights Offer Share as part of this Claw‐back Rights Offer process.
1.2 Purpose of the Claw‐back Rights Offer
The proceeds of the Claw‐back Rights Offer will be used to recapitalise Cavmont Bank Limited, the 100 % wholly owned subsidiary of Cavmont
Capital Holdings Zambia Plc, in an effort to comply with the new Bank of Zambia capital adequacy framework announced on 30 January 2012.
1.3 Underwriting Agreement
In terms of the Underwriting Agreement (incorporated herein by reference), CIH and Mukumbi agreed to subscribe for a combined total of
30,629,285,715 Claw‐back Rights Offer Shares at an issue price of ZMK 1.40 per Claw‐back Rights Offer Share as partial underwriting of the
ZMK 90 billion capital raise by CCHZ. In addition it is envisaged that some Zambian institutional investors may commit to participate as co‐
underwriters. An underwriting flat fee of 1.5% of the value of the underwriting commitment is payable to each of the Underwriters and any co‐
underwriters who subsequently sign up for this role.
2. FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF THE CLAW‐BACK OFFER
At ANNEXURE IV is provided the Reporting Accountants Report on the forecast statement of comprehensive income and statement of financial
position to 31 December 2012.

CIRCULAR TO SHAREHOLDERS
A. PURPOSE OF THIS CIRCULAR
Background
In 2011 the Board of Cavmont Bank Limited approached CIH to obtain long term funds to recapitalise the bank. Subsequently CIH provided K20
billion as Tier II capital which the Bank of Zambia approved in December 2011 and was ratified by the shareholders of CCHZ at the 13th
AGM held on 05 July 2012.
At the AGM held on 05 July 2012, shareholders of CCHZ also authorised the Board of Directors to proceed with a recapitalisation plan to
ensure Cavmont Bank Limited, the wholly owned subsidiary of Cavmont Capital Holdings Zambia PLC, complies with the new Bank of Zambia
capital adequacy framework announced on 30 January 2012 for locally owned banks, by raising up to a maximum of Zambian Kwacha
90,000,000,000 (K90 billion).
At the AGM held on 05 July 2012, the shareholders approved the following resolution:
“ To AUTHORISE the Board of Directors to proceed with the capital raise to ensure Cavmont Bank Limited, the wholly owned subsidiary of
Cavmont Capital Holdings Zambia PLC, complies with the new Bank of Zambia capital adequacy framework announced on 30 January 2012, by
raising up to a maximum of Zambian Kwacha 90,000,000,000 (K90 billion) at a share issue price not less than the minimum allowed in terms of
the prevailing Lusaka Stock Exchange Listings Rules and Requirements as they pertain to a capital raise, provided that such capital raise shall be
in compliance with and in a form acceptable to both the Lusaka Stock Exchange and the Bank of Zambia requirements for such capital raise.
The capital raise will be in the form of an underwritten rights offer (the “Rights Offer”) or an underwritten public offer (the “Public Offer”)

B. THE CLAW‐BACK OFFER
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 At the 13th Annual General Meeting of the Company held on 05 July 2012, shareholders authorised the Board of Directors to proceed
with the recapitalisation of Cavmont Bank Limited, the wholly owned subsidiary of Cavmont Capital Holdings Zambia Plc, to comply with
the new Bank of Zambia capital adequacy framework for local banks announced on 30 January 2012, by raising up to a maximum of
Zambian Kwacha 90,000,000,000 (ZMK 90 billion). Holders of CCHZ ordinary shares registered as such at the close of business on Friday
02 November 2012 (the Record Date) will be entitled to receive rights or Letters of Allocation, reflecting the number of Claw‐back Rights
Offer Shares they are entitled to in terms of the Claw‐back Offer.
1.2 The LuSE has approved the listing of the Letters of Allocation (LAs) in respect of the Claw‐back Rights Offer Shares and from the
commencement of trade on Friday, 16 November 2012 until the close of trade on Wednesday, 05 December 2012.
1.3 In terms of the Claw‐back Offer, CCHZ shareholders recorded in the register at the close of business on Friday, 02 November 2012, being
the Record Date, will receive rights to subscribe for Claw‐back Rights Offer Shares in term of the Claw‐back Rights Offer on the basis of
90 Claw‐back Rights Offer Shares for every 7 CCHZ ordinary shares held on the Record Date, at a Claw‐back Rights Offer Price of ZMK
1.40 per Claw‐back Offer Share
1.4 The Claw‐back Rights Offer Shares, upon their issue, will rank pari passu in all respects, with the ordinary shares currently in issue.
2. PURPOSE OF THE CLAW‐BACK RIGHTS OFFER
On 30 January 2012, the Bank of Zambia issued a circular, (referenced as CB Circular No.: 02/2012), revising the capital requirements of
commercial banks in Zambia. Prior to 30 January 2012 the minimum capital requirement for commercial banks operating in Zambia was ZMK
12 billion. In the revised BOZ regulations, the new capitalisation requirements for commercial banks are linked to the shareholding structure of
the banks as follows:‐
i) For foreign owned banks, the minimum capital requirement is now ZMK 520 billion; and
ii) For locally owned banks a lower capital requirement threshold of ZMK 104 billion has been set.
A locally owned bank refers to a bank licenced by the BOZ where at least 51% of its equity is owned by Zambian citizens and or entities
incorporated in Zambia that have at least 51 % equity owned by Zambian citizens .
A foreign owned bank refers to a bank licensed by the BOZ where more than 49% of its equity is owned by foreign entities.
Cavmont Bank Limited is a wholly owned subsidiary of CCHZ. CCHZ is listed on the Lusaka Stock Exchange.
Following the announcement by BOZ on 30 January 2012 regarding the revised capital requirements of commercial banks in Zambia, CCHZ
initiated a shareholding restructuring and recapitalisation plan for the Company. The proposed plan essentially involves the following two key
and critical actions on a simultaneous basis:
i) The restructuring of the shareholding in CCHZ such that Cavmont Bank qualifies as a locally owned bank in terms of the revised BOZ
regulations; and
ii) The recapitalisation of Cavmont Bank via a capital raise by CCHZ.
The primary reason for the Claw‐back Rights Offer is therefore to restructure the shareholding of CCHZ and simultaneously recapitalise CBL,
the wholly owned subsidiary of CCHZ.

underwriting to the renounceable rights offer undertaken by CCHZ in November 2007 and consequently increased its equity stake in CCHZ
beyond 25% by holding non‐voting shares. CIH has supported CBL with technical support services in the past when required. In 2010 CCHZ
conducted a rebranding exercise and changed the name of the bank to Cavmont Bank Limited.

Rights Offer Pricing
CCHZ last traded on the LuSE at a share price of ZMK 4.50 on 15 October 2012. To take into account the low liquidity in the share price on the
LuSE a valuation exercise was undertaken to determine the appropriate offer price for the Claw Back Rights Offer Accordingly the Claw Back
Rights Offer price has been set at ZMK 1.40 which represents a discount of 69 % to the last traded price. The Offer price of ZMK 1.40 can be
contrasted to the Net Asset Value of ZMK 1.33 per share (as shown in the table below) and this gives a Price to Book Value (PBV) ratio of 1.05.
It is envisaged that that the high discount of 69 % and the low PBV ratio will encourage Zambian shareholders to follow their rights in the Claw
Back Rights Offer.

9. CONSOLIDATION OF SHARE CAPITAL
On 09 November 2012 the company issued a notice to shareholders of an extraordinary shareholders meeting to consider and approve a
consolidation of the shares of the company to accommodate the Kwacha rebasing scheduled for 1 January 2013. The number of issued shares,
should all rights be taken up, will therefore reduce from 69,285,714,286 of ZMK 1 each to 69,285 714 of ZMK 1000 each.
It is proposed that, subject to the passing of the requisite special and ordinary resolutions at the EGM on 07 December 2012 and the filing of
the Resolutions at PACRA, CCHZ will implement a Consolidation of the authorised and issued share capital of the Company on the basis of 1
new CCHZ Consolidated Share for every 1,000 CCHZ ordinary shares of ZMK 1.00 par value each held as at the Record Date of 14 December
2012 by the consolidation of every 1,000 ordinary shares of par value of ZMK 1.00 each into 1 new CCHZ ordinary share with a par value of
ZMK 1,000.00 each.
The Consolidation is being proposed primarily to prepare CCHZ for the proposed currency rebasing exercise in Zambia.
The Bank of Zambia will rebase the Zambian currency by a factor of 1,000 commencing 01 January 2013. Therefore, share prices reported on
the LuSE will be divided by a factor of 1,000 across the board. Accordingly, the Consolidation is also intended to adjust the share price of CCHZ
ahead of the currency rebasing (but with no change in market value), and give a realistic resultant working figure when currency rebasing is
effected, commencing 01 January 2013.

assumptions made by the Directors set out below and are presented on a basis consistent with the accounting policies adopted by Cavmont

Assumptions
The Directors of Cavmont Capital Holdings Zambia Plc are solely responsible for the forecasts. They have been prepared in accordance with the
accounting policies and bases currently in place.
The following are the significant assumptions that the Directors used in preparing the forecast financial position as at 31 December 2012 and
the forecast financial performance for the year then ended.
Bank of Zambia Policy rate is estimated to remain at 9% in 2012;
Non‐interest income is expected to total 53% of total income;
Provision for doubtful loans are estimated to amount to 2.7% of gross loans and advances;
Staff costs will increase by 3.9%;
While the rights offer is anticipated to close in December 2012, it is expected that the actual cash proceeds of the rights offer will be
received in 2013. Accordingly, the forecast shareholders’ equity does not reflect receipt of the rights offer proceeds by 31 December
2012; and
While it is the intention of CCHZ and its shareholders that the current rights offer is successfully concluded and fully subscribed by
December 2012, the Company has considered the implications of not successfully concluding the proposed recapitalisation. In the event
that the proposed recapitalisation is not fully subscribed by December 2012, it is the intention of CCHZ that a second capital raise will be
pursued in 2013.
SIGNIFICANT RATIOS

the financial statements underlying the financial information and whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the Group’s
circumstances, consistently applied and adequately disclosed.
We planned and performed our work so as to obtain all the information and explanations which we considered necessary in order to provide
us with sufficient evidence to give reasonable assurance that the financial information is free from material misstatement whether caused by
fraud or other irregularity or error.

Opinion
In our opinion, the information set out in pages 37 to 80 below gives, for the purposes of the renounceable claw back rights offer pre‐listing
statement, a true and fair view of the profit of the Group for the three years ended 31 December 2011, 2010 and 2009 and of the assets and
liabilities of the Group as at 31 December 2011, 2010 and 2009.
Furthermore, based on the review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim financial
information does not present fairly, in all material respects the financial position of the Group as at 30 June 2012, and of its financial
performance for the six month period then ended for the purposes of the renounceable claw back rights offer pre‐listing statement.

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1.1 GENERAL INFORMATION
Cavmont Capital Holdings Zambia Plc a limited company incorporated and domiciled in the Republic of Zambia. CCHZ was incorporated on 6
January 1999. The address of its registered office and principal place of business is PwC Place, Stand № 2374, Thabo Mbeki Road, Lusaka, Zambia.
Presented below are the audited financial statements for the years ended 31 December 2011, 2010 and 2009, as well as the unaudited financial
statements for the 6 months ended 30 June 2012, which disclose the state of affairs of Cavmont Capital Holdings Zambia Plc ("the Company") and
its subsidiary, Cavmont Bank Limited (the “Bank”).
These financial statements are presented in units of millions of Zambian Kwacha.
1.2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1.2.1 Statement of compliance
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, the Banking and Financial
Services Act, 1994 (as amended), the Companies’ Act, 1994 (as amended), the requirements of the Securities Act 1993, and the Third Schedule
to the Securities (Registration of Securities) Rules, 1993.
1.2.2 Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain properties and financial instruments that are
measured at revalued amounts or fair values, as explained in the accounting policies below. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value
of the consideration given in exchange for assets.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of estimates and assumptions. It also requires Management
to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or
complexity, or where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements, are disclosed in Note 1.3.
Going concern
The Company does not trade but relies on the results of the wholly owned subsidiary. The financial statements of the Company standing alone
and with the subsidiary (together the “Group”) have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Group will continue to
be able to meet its liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future. During 2011, the Group made a loss before tax of ZK17, 023 million
(2010: ZK7,749 million) and as at 31 December 2011 had accumulated losses of ZK16,638 million (2010: ZK3,801 million).
The Directors of the subsidiary have taken up the following actions to address the current performance of the Bank and to reverse the current
trend of losses:
The Bank is focussed on increasing the value of its customer deposits from to ZK400 million over 2012, which will in turn support the
planned growth of loans and advances to customers;
On 15 December 2011, the Bank issued cumulative, redeemable, convertible preference shares of ZK20,000 million which qualifies as
secondary capital. This increased the Bank’s ability to increase loans and advances by ZK20,000 million.
The Group implemented a number of incentives to increase non‐interest income;
Management has introduced cost control and reduction activities that are expected to reduce overheads of the Group by 10% over the
next 2 years.
The Directors are of the opinion that the above actions will reverse the current losses and the Bank should return to profitability in the future.
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Cavmont Capital Holdings Zambia Plc and its subsidiary, Cavmont
Bank Zambia Limited, as at 31 December of each year. The financial statements of the subsidiary are prepared for the same reporting year as
the parent company, using consistent accounting policies.
All inter‐group balances, transactions, income and expenses, as well as profits and losses resulting from intra‐group transactions that are
recognised in assets and liabilities, are eliminated in full. The subsidiary is fully consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on
which the Group’s obtains control, and shall continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases.
These financial statements are presented in millions of Zambian Kwacha (ZK).
The principal accounting policies are set out below.

1.2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
1.2.3 Application of new and revised International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs)
The following new and revised IFRSs have been applied in the current year and have affected the amounts reported in these financial
statements.
Amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of financial statements
The amendments to IAS 1 clarify that an entity may choose to disclose an analysis of other comprehensive income by item in the statement of
analysis of other comprehensive income by item in the statement of changes in equity or in the notes to the financial statements.
IAS 24 Related party disclosures as amended in 2009
IAS 24 (as revised in 2009) has been revised on the following two aspects: (a) IAS 24 (as revised in 2009) has changed the definition of a related
party and (b) IAS 24 (as revised in 2009) introduces a partial exemption from the disclosure requirements for government‐related entities.
1.2.4 New and revised IFRSs in issue but not yet effective
The Group has not applied the following new and revised IFRSs that have been issued but are not yet effective
Amendments to IFRS 7 Financial instruments: Disclosures, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2011.
The amendments to IFRS 7 increase the disclosure requirements for transactions involving transfers of financial assets. These amendments
are intended to provide greater transparency around risk exposures when a financial asset is transferred but the transferor retains some level
of continuing exposure in the asset. The amendments also require disclosures where transfers of financial assets are not evenly distributed
throughout the period. If the Group enters into other types of transfers of financial assets in the future, disclosures regarding those transfers
may be affected.
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013.
IFRS 9 issued in November 2009 introduces new requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets. IFRS 9 amended in
October 2010 includes the requirements for the classification and measurement of financial liabilities and for derecognition.
IFRS 9 requires all recognised financial assets that are within the scope of IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement to be
subsequently measured at amortised cost or fair value. Specifically, debt investments that are held within a business model whose objective is
to collect the contractual cash flows, and that have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal
outstanding are generally measured at amortised cost at the end of subsequent accounting periods. All other debt investments and equity
investments are measured at their fair values at the end of subsequent accounting periods.
The most significant effect of IFRS 9 regarding the classification and measurement of financial liabilities relates to the accounting for changes in
the fair value of a financial liability (designated as at fair value through profit or loss) attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability.
Specifically, under IFRS 9, for financial liabilities that are designated as at fair value through profit or loss, the amount of change in the fair
value of the financial liability that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability is presented in other comprehensive income,
unless the recognition of the effects of changes in the liability’s credit risk in other comprehensive income would create or enlarge an
accounting mismatch in profit or loss. Changes in fair value attributable to a financial liability’s credit risk are not subsequently reclassified to
profit or loss. Previously, under IAS 39, the entire amount of the change in the fair value of the financial liability designated as at fair value
through profit or loss was presented in profit or loss.
IFRS 9 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013, with earlier application permitted. The Group is considering the
implications of the Standard, the impact on the Group and the timing of its adoption by the Group.
IFRS10 Consolidated Financial Statements, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013
IFRS 10 replaces the parts of IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements that deal with consolidated financial statements and SIC‐
12 Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities. Under IFRS 10, there is only one basis for consolidation, which is control. In addition, IFRS 10
includes a new definition of control that contains three elements: (a) power over an investee, (b) exposure, or rights, to variable returns from
its involvement with the investee, and (c) the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the investor’s returns. Extensive
guidance has been added in IFRS 10 to deal with complex scenarios.

1.2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
1.2.4 New and revised IFRSs in issue but not yet effective (continued)
IFRS11 Joint Arrangements, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013
IFRS 11 replaces IAS 31 Interests in Joint Ventures and SIC‐13 Jointly Controlled Entities – Non‐monetary Contributions by Venturers. IFRS 11
deals with how a joint arrangement of which two or more parties have joint control should be classified. Under IFRS 11, joint arrangements
are classified as joint operations or joint ventures, depending on the rights and obligations of the parties to the arrangements. In contrast,
under IAS 31, there are three types of joint arrangements: jointly controlled entities, jointly controlled assets and jointly controlled operations.
In addition, joint ventures under IFRS 11 are required to be accounted for using the equity method of accounting, whereas jointly controlled
entities under IAS 31 can be accounted for using the equity method of accounting or proportionate accounting.
IFRS12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013
IFRS 12 is a disclosure standard and is applicable to entities that have interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and/or
unconsolidated structured entities. In general, the disclosure requirements in IFRS 12 are more extensive than those in the current standards.
IFRS13 Fair value measurement, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013
IFRS 13 establishes a single source of guidance for fair value measurements and disclosures about fair value measurements. The Standard
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. The scope of IFRS
13 is broad; it applies to both financial instrument items and non‐financial instrument items for which other IFRSs require or permit fair value
measurements and disclosures about fair value measurements, except in specified circumstances. In general, the disclosure requirements in
IFRS 13 are more extensive than those required in the current standards. For example, quantitative and qualitative disclosures based on the
three‐level fair value hierarchy currently required for financial instruments only under IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures will be
extended by IFRS 13 to cover all assets and liabilities within its scope.
Amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2012
The amendments to IAS 1 retain the option to present profit or loss and other comprehensive income in either a single statement or in two
separate but consecutive statements. However, the amendments to IAS 1 require additional disclosures to be made in the other
comprehensive income section such that items of other comprehensive income are grouped into two categories: (a) items that will not be
reclassified subsequently to profit or loss; and (b) items that will be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss when specific conditions are met.
Income tax on items of other comprehensive income is required to be allocated on the same basis. The amendments to IAS 1 are effective for
annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2012. The presentation of items of other comprehensive income will be modified accordingly when
the amendments are applied in the future accounting periods.
Amendments to IAS 12 Taxes, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2012
The amendments to IAS 12 provide an exception to the general principles in IAS 12 that the measurement of deferred tax IAS 8.30(b) assets
and deferred tax liabilities should reflect the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the entity expects to recover the
carrying amount of an asset. Specifically, under the amendments, investment properties that are measured using the fair value model in
accordance with IAS 40 Investment Property are presumed to be recovered through sale for the purposes of measuring deferred taxes, unless
the presumption is rebutted in certain circumstances.
IAS 19 Employee benefits, as revised in 2011, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013
The amendments to IAS 19 change the accounting for defined benefit plans and termination benefits. The most significant change relates to
the accounting for changes in defined benefit obligations and plan assets. The amendments require the recognition of changes in defined
benefit obligations and in fair value of plan assets when they occur, and hence eliminate the 'corridor approach’ permitted under the previous
version of IAS 19 and accelerate the recognition of past service costs. The amendments require all actuarial gains and losses to be recognised
immediately through other comprehensive income in order for the net pension asset or liability recognised in the consolidated statement of
financial position to reflect the full value of the plan deficit or surplus.
1.2.5 Interest income and expense
Interest income and expense for all interest bearing instruments are recognised within 'interest income' and 'interest expense' in profit and
loss using the effective interest method.
Page 40 of 84
1.2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
1.2.5 Interest income and expense (continued)
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset or a financial liability and of allocating interest
income or interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash
payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial asset, or, where appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount of the
financial asset or liability.
When a financial asset or a group of financial assets has been written down as a result of an impairment loss, interest income is recognised
using the rate of interest that was used to discount the future cash flows for the purpose of measuring the recoverable amount.
1.2.6 Fees and commission income
Fees and commission income are generally recognised on an accruals basis when the service has been provided. Loan commitment fees for
loans that are likely to be drawn down are deferred (together with related direct costs) and recognised as an adjustment to the effective
interest rate on the loan.
Fees and commission income and expenses that are integral to the effective interest rate on a financial asset or liability are included in the
measurement of the effective interest rate.
1.2.7 Translation of foreign currencies
The financial statements of the Group are presented in the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (its
functional currency). For the purpose of the financial statements, the results and financial position of the Group are expressed in Zambian
Kwacha (‘ZK’), which is the functional currency of the Group and the presentation currency for the financial statements.
In preparing the financial statements of the Group, transactions in currencies other than the Group's functional currency (foreign currencies)
are translated into functional currency using the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions.
At each reporting date, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the reporting date. Non‐
monetary items measured at historical cost denominated in a foreign currency are translated with the exchange rate as at the date of initial
recognition.
Foreign exchange differences resulting from settlement of foreign currency transactions and from the translation at year‐end exchange rates
of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.
1.2.8 Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when a group entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or
issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added
to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition.
1.2.9 Financial assets
The Group classifies its financial assets into the following IAS 39 categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss; loans, advances
and receivables; held‐to‐maturity investments; and available‐for‐sale financial assets. Management determines the classification of its
investments at initial recognition.
1.2.9.1 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
This category has two sub‐categories: financial assets held for trading, and those designated at fair value through profit or loss at inception.
Financial assets are designated at fair value through profit or loss when the application of fair value option reduces or eliminates an accounting
mismatch that would otherwise arise, or the financial assets are part of a portfolio of financial instruments which is risk managed and reported
to senior management on a fair value basis, or it forms part of a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives.
Page 41 of 84
1.2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
1.2.9 Financial assets (continued)
1.2.9.2 Loans, advances and receivables
Loans and receivables are non‐derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market
Loans and receivables are initially recognised at fair value – which is the cash consideration to originate or purchase the loan including any
transaction costs – and measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Interest on loans is included in the
income statement and is reported as ‘Interest and similar income’. In the case of impairment, the impairment loss is reported as a deduction
from the carrying value of the loan.
The Group classifies its financial assets into the following IAS 39 categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss; loans, advances
and receivables; held‐to‐maturity investments; and available‐for‐sale financial assets. Management determines the classification of its
investments at initial recognition.
1.2.9.3 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
This category has two sub‐categories: financial assets held for trading, and those designated at fair value through profit or loss at inception.
Financial assets are designated at fair value through profit or loss when the application of fair value option reduces or eliminates an accounting
mismatch that would otherwise arise, or the financial assets are part of a portfolio of financial instruments which is risk managed and reported
to senior management on a fair value basis, or it forms part of a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives. .
1.2.9.4 Loans, advances and receivables
Loans and receivables are non‐derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market
Loans and receivables are initially recognised at fair value – which is the cash consideration to originate or purchase the loan including any
transaction costs – and measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Interest on loans is included in the
income statement and is reported as ‘Interest and similar income’. In the case of impairment, the impairment loss is reported as a deduction
from the carrying value of the loan.
1.2.9.5 Held to maturity financial assets
Held‐to‐maturity investments are non‐derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the Group’s
management has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. Were the Group to sell more than an insignificant amount of held to
maturity assets, the entire category would have to be reclassified as available for sale.
Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets held to maturity and available for sale are recognised on trade date – the date on which
the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset.
Loans, advances and receivables and held to maturity financial assets are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Interest calculated using the effective interest method is recognised in profit and loss.
1.2.9.6 Derecognition of financial assets
Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from these assets have ceased to exist or the assets
have been transferred and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the assets are also transferred (that is, if substantially all the
risks and rewards have not been transferred, the Group tests control to ensure that continuing involvement on the basis of any retained
powers of control does not prevent derecognition). Financial liabilities are derecognised when they have been redeemed or otherwise
extinguished. Collateral furnished by the Group under standard repurchase agreements and securities lending and borrowing transactions is
not derecognised because the Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards on the basis of the predetermined repurchase price, and
the criteria for derecognition are therefore not met.
On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration
received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity is
recognised in profit or loss.
Page 42 of 84
1.2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
1.2.10 Impairment of financial assets
1.2.10.1 Assets carried at amortised cost
The Group first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant, and
individually or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. If the Group determines that no objective evidence of
impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, it includes the asset in a group of financial assets with
similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses them for impairment. Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for
which an impairment loss is or continues to be recognised are not included in a collective assessment of impairment.
The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. A
financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is objective evidence of impairment 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 flows of the financial assets or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.
The criteria that the Group uses to determine that there is objective evidence of an impairment loss include:
Delinquency in contractual payments of principal or interest;
Cash flow difficulties experienced by the borrower (for example, equity ratio, net income percentage of sales);
Breach of loan covenants or conditions;
Initiation of bankruptcy proceedings;
Deterioration of the borrower’s competitive position;
Deterioration in the value of collateral; and
Downgrading below investment grade level.
If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on loans and receivables has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the
difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have
not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate (i.e. the effective interest rate computed at initial
recognition). The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through use of an allowance account and the amount of the loss shall be recognised
in profit or loss. If a loan has a variable interest rate the discount for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate
determined under the contract. As a practical expedient, the Group may measure impairment on the basis of an instrument’s fair value using
an observable market price.
The calculation of the present value of the estimated future cash flows of a collateralised financial asset reflects the cash flows that may result
from foreclosure less costs for obtaining and selling the collateral, whether or not foreclosure is probable.
For the purposes of a collective evaluation of impairment, financial assets are group on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics (i.e. on the
basis of the Group’s grading process that asset type, industry, geographical location, collateral type, past due status and other relevant
factors). Those characteristics are relevant to the estimation of future cash flows for groups of such assets by being indicative of the debtors’
ability to pay all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the asset being evaluated.
Future cash flows in a group of financial assets that are collectively evaluated for impairment are estimated on the basis of the contractual
cash flows of the assets in the group and historical loss experience for assets with credit risk characteristics similar to those in the group.
Historical loss experience is adjusted on the basis of current observable data to reflect the effects of current conditions that did not affect the
period on which the historical loss experience is based and to remove the effects of conditions in the historical period that do not exist
currently.
When a loan is uncollectible, it is written off against the related provision for loan impairment. Such loans are written off after all the
necessary procedures have been completed and the amount of the loss has been determined. Subsequently recoveries of amounts previously
written off decrease the amount of the provision for loan impairment in the income statement.
Page 43 of 84
1.2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
1.2.10 Impairment of financial assets (continued)
1.2.10.2 Renegotiated loans
If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring
after the impairment was recognised (such as an improvement in the debtor’s credit rating), the previously recognised impairment loss is
reversed by adjusting the allowance account. The amount of the reversal is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.
Statutory and other regulatory loan loss reserve requirements that exceed these amounts are dealt with in the general banking reserve as an
appropriation of retained earnings.
1.2.11 Financial liabilities and equity instruments
Debt and equity instruments issued by the Group are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of
the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument. An equity instrument is any contract that
evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Group are
recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity
instruments issued by the Group are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
Financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost. Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost are deposits from banks or customers, debt
securities in issue for which the fair value option is not applied, convertible bonds and subordinated debts.
Compound instruments
The component parts of compound instruments issued by the Group are classified separately as financial liabilities and equity in accordance
with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
Transaction costs that relate to the issue of the compound instrument are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to the
allocation of the gross proceeds. Transaction costs relating to the equity component are recognised directly in equity. Transaction costs
relating to the liability component are included in the carrying amount of the liability component and are amortised over the lives of the
liability component using the effective interest method.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
The Group derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Group’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or they expire. The
difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in profit or
loss.
Share capital
Ordinary shares are classified as ‘share capital’ in equity. Any premium received over and above the par value of the shares is classified as
‘share premium’ in equity.
1.2.12 Offsetting
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the statement of financial position when there is a legally enforceable
right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or realize the assets and settle the liability
simultaneously.
1.2.13 Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a
substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are
substantially ready for their intended use or sale.
Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted
from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.
All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.
Page 44 of 84
1.2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
1.2.14 Property and equipment
All property and equipment are initially recorded at cost. Buildings are subsequently shown at market value, based on periodic, but at least
triennial valuations by external independent valuers, less subsequent depreciation for buildings. All other property and equipment is stated at
historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.
Subsequent expenditure is included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable
that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other
repairs and maintenance are charged to the profit and loss account during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Increases in the carrying amount arising on revaluation are credited to a revaluation reserve. Decreases that offset previous increases of the same
asset are charged against the revaluation reserve; all other decreases are charged to the profit and loss account.
Depreciation on other assets is calculated on the straight line basis to allocate their cost their residual values over their estimated useful lives,
as follows:
Buildings 50 years
Fixtures, fittings and equipment 4 to 7 years
Motor vehicles 4 years
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date.
The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is any indication that any item of property and equipment is impaired. If any such
indication exists, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the relevant assets. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which
the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and
value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash
flows (cash‐generating units).
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the
continued use of the asset. Gains and losses on disposal of property and equipment are determined by reference to their carrying amount and are
taken into account in determining operating profit.
1.2.15 Intangible assets
Acquired computer software licences are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and bring to use the specific software. These
costs are amortised on the basis of the expected useful lives. Software has a maximum expected useful life of 11 years. Software upgrade
costs are assessed and amortised separately from the original licence.
All software cost are stated at historical cost less amortisation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the
acquisition of these assets.
Subsequent expenditure is included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable
that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other
support and maintenance costs are charged to profit and loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.
An intangible asset is derecognised on disposal, or when no future economic benefits are expected from use or disposal. Gains or losses arising
from derecognition of an intangible asset, measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the
asset, are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.
1.2.16 Leases
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the
lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight‐line basis over the lease term, except where another systematic basis is
more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed.
Page 45 of 84
1.2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
1.2.17 Taxation
Current tax
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the income statement because
it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or
deductible. The Group’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance
sheet date.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the
corresponding tax base used in the computation of taxable profit, and is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax
liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible
temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary
differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial
recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that
sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the
asset is realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. The
measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group
expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities
and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Group intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities
on a net basis.
Withholding taxes that arise from the distribution of dividends are recognised at the same time as the liability to pay the related dividend is
recognised.
Current and deferred tax for the period
Current and deferred tax are recognised as an expense or income in profit or loss, except when they relate to items credited or debited
directly to equity, in which case the tax is also recognised directly in equity.
1.2.18 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short term highly liquid investments with original
maturities of three months or less, including cash and non‐restricted to balances with the Bank of Zambia, Treasury and other eligible bills, and
amounts due from other banks. Cash and cash equivalents excludes the cash reserve requirement held with the Bank of Zambia.
1.2.19 Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the
Group will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the balance sheet
date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated
to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows.
When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, the receivable is
recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.

1.2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
1.2.20 Employee benefits
Retirement benefit obligations
Since 31 December 2006 the Bank operates a defined contribution pension plan for all its employees. Benefits from this plan only relates to
service subsequent to 31 December 2006. The Group and all its employees also contribute to the National Pension Scheme, which is a defined
contribution scheme. A defined contribution plan is a retirement benefit plan under which the Group pays fixed contributions into a separate
entity. The Group has no legal or constructive obligations to pay further contributions if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all
employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods. The assets of the defined contribution plans are held in
separate trustee administered funds, which are funded by contributions from both the Group and employees.
The Group’s contributions to the defined contribution schemes are charged to profit and loss in the year in which they fall due.
Other benefits
Short‐term benefits, such as salaries, paid absences, and other benefits, are accounted for on an accruals basis over the period which
employees have provided services in the year.
1.2.21 Acceptances and letters of credit
Acceptances and letters of credit are accounted for as off balance sheet transactions and disclosed as contingent liabilities.
1.2.22 Fiduciary activities
The Group commonly acts as trustee and in other fiduciary capacities that result in the holding or placing of assets on behalf of individuals,
trusts, retirement benefit plans and other institutions. These assets and income arising thereon are excluded from these financial statements,
as they are not assets of the Group.
Page 47 of 84
1.3 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, which are described in note 1.4, Management is required to make judgements, estimates
and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and
associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from
these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in
which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects
both current and future periods.
1.3.1 Impairment losses on loans and advances
The Group reviews its loan portfolios to assess impairment at least on a monthly basis. In determining whether an impairment loss should be
recorded in the income statement, the Group makes judgements as to whether there is any observable data indicating that there is a
measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a portfolio of loans before a decrease can be identified with an individual loan in
that portfolio. This evidence may include observable data indicating that there has been an adverse change in the payment status of borrowers
in a group, or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on assets in that group.
Management uses estimates based on historical loss experience for assets with credit risk characteristics and objective evidence of impairment
similar to those in the portfolio when scheduling future cash flows. The methodology and assumptions used for estimating both the amount
and the timing of future cash flows are reviewed regularly to reduce any differences between loss estimates and actual loss experience. Were
the net present values of estimated impairment losses on loans and advances to differ by + or – 1%, the impairment loss is estimated to be ZK
48 million higher or lower as at 31 December 2011.
1.3.2 Held to maturity financial assets
The Group follows the guidance on IAS 39 on classifying non‐derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity
as held‐to‐maturity. This classification requires significant judgement. In making this judgement, the Group evaluates its intention and ability
to hold such investments to maturity. If the Group fails to keep these investments to maturity other than for specific circumstances ‐ for
example, selling an insignificant amount close to maturity ‐ it will be required to reclassify the entire class as available for sale. The Directors
have reviewed the Group's held to maturity financial assets in light of its capital maintenance and liquidity requirements and have confirmed
the Group's positive intention and ability to hold those assets to maturity.
1.3.3 Income taxes
The Group is subject to income taxes in the Republic of Zambia. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax
determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Group recognises liabilities for anticipated tax based on estimates of
whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded,
such differences will impact on the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.
1.3.4 Recoverability of deferred tax asset
Critical estimates are made by the Directors in determining the recoverability of the deferred tax asset recognised. This involves estimating
the amount of future taxable profits against which the deferred tax asset can be realised. Should insufficient taxable profits be generated, the
deferred tax asset of ZK12, 873 million (31 December 2010: ZK6, 822 million) would be recognised as an expense in profit and loss.
1.3.5 Useful lives of property and equipment
As described Note 1.2.14 above, the Group reviews the estimated useful lives of property and equipment at the end of each reporting period.
During the current year, there were no adjustments made to the useful lives of property and equipment.

1.4 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, fair value interest rate risk, cash flow interest
rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. Those activities involve the analysis, evaluation, acceptance and management of some
degree of risk or combination of risks. Taking risk is core to the Group’s business and the financial risks are an inevitable consequence of being
in business. The Group’s aim is therefore to achieve an appropriate balance between risk and return and minimise potential adverse effects
on its financial performance.
Risk management is carried out by the Treasury department under policies approved by the Board of Directors. Treasury identifies, evaluates
and hedges financial risks in close cooperation with the operating units. The Board of Directors provides written principles for overall risk
management, as well as written policies covering specific areas such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative
and non‐derivative financial instruments.
1.4.1 Financial assets and liabilities
The Group classifies financial instruments into classes that reflect the nature of information and take into account the characteristics of those
financial instruments as follows:

1.4 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)
1.4.2 Credit risk
The Group takes on exposure to credit risk, which is the risk that a counterparty will cause a financial loss to the Group by failing to pay
amounts in full when due. Credit risk is the most important risk for the Group’s business: management therefore carefully manages the
exposure to credit risk. Credit exposures arise principally in lending and investment activities. There is also credit risk in off‐balance sheet
financial instruments, such as loan commitments. Credit risk management and control is centralised in the credit risk management team in the
Advances/Credit department, which reports regularly to the Board of Directors.
Risk limit control and mitigation policies
The Group structures the levels of credit risk it undertakes by placing limits on the amount of risk accepted in relation to one borrower, or
groups of borrowers, and to industry segments. Such risks are monitored on a regular basis and are subject to annual or more frequent review.
The exposure to any one borrower including banks is further restricted by sub‐limits covering on‐ and off‐balance sheet exposures and daily
delivery risk limits in relation to trading items such as forward foreign exchange contracts. Actual exposures against limits are monitored daily.
Exposure to credit risk is managed through regular analysis of the ability of borrowers and potential borrowers to meet interest and capital
repayment obligations and by changing lending limits where appropriate.
The Group employs a range of policies and practices to mitigate credit risk. The most traditional of these is the taking of security for funds
advanced, which is common practice. The Group implements guidelines on the acceptability of specific classes of collateral or credit risk
mitigation. The principal collateral types for loans and advances are:
Mortgages over residential properties
Charges over business assets such as premises, inventory and accounts receivable
Charges over financial instruments such as debt securities and equities
Collateral
Longer term finance and lending to corporate entities are generally secured; revolving individual credit facilities are general unsecured. In
addition, in order to minimise credit loss the Group will seek additional collateral from the counterparty as soon as impairment indicators are
identified for the relevant loans and advances.
Collateral held as security for financial assets other than loans and advances depends on the nature of the instrument. Debt securities,
treasury and other eligible bills are generally unsecured, with the exception of asset back securities and similar instruments, which are secured
by portfolios of financial instruments.
Credit related commitments:
The primary purpose of these instruments is to ensure that funds are available to a customer as required. Guarantees and standby letters of
credit, which represent irrevocable assurances that the Group will make payments in the event that a customer cannot meet its obligations to
third parties, carry the same credit risk as loans. Documentary and commercial letters of credit, which are written undertakings by the Group
on behalf of a customer authorising a third party to draw drafts on the Group up to a stipulated amount under specific terms and conditions,
are collateralised by the underlying shipments of goods to which they relate and therefore carry less risk than a direct borrowing.
Commitments to extend credit represent unused portions of authorisations to extend credit in the form of loans, guarantees or letters of
credit. With respect to credit risk on commitments to extend credit, the Group is potentially exposed to loss in an amount equal to the total
unused commitments. However, the likely amount of loss is less than the total unused commitments, as most commitments to extend credit
are contingent upon customers maintaining specific credit standards. The Group monitors the term to maturity of credit commitments
because longer‐term commitments generally have a greater degree of credit risk than shorter‐term commitments.

1.4.2 Credit risk (continued)
Maximum exposure to credit risk before collateral held
With exception of the following, the maximum exposure to credit risk of financial assets is equal to their carrying amount.

Credit risk exposures relating to off‐balance sheet items:
Undrawn commitments 4,119 ‐ ‐
Guarantee and performance bonds 2,369 2,167 636
The above table represents a worst case scenario of credit risk exposure to the Group at 31 December 2011, 31 December 2010 and 31
December 2009, without taking account of any collateral held or other credit enhancements attached. For on‐balance sheet assets, the
exposures are based on carrying amounts as reported in the balance sheet.
Loans and advances to customers, are secured by collateral in the form of charges over land and buildings and/or plant and machinery or
corporate guarantees.
Management is confident in its ability to continue to control and sustain minimal exposure of credit risk to the Group resulting from both its
loan and advances portfolio and debt securities based on the following:
the Group exercises stringent controls over the granting of new loans
81% of the loans and advances portfolio are neither past due nor impaired
99% of the loans and advances portfolio are backed by collateral
100% of the investments in debt securities are government securities.
Financial assets are summarised as follows:
Kwacha millions 2011 2010 2009
Neither past due nor impaired 112,122 47,383 28,342

Financial assets that are past due but not impaired
Loans and advances less than 180 days past due are not considered fully impaired, unless other information is available to indicate the
contrary. The gross amounts of loans and advances that were past due but not impaired were as follows:

The Group had no repossessed collateral as at 31 December 2011 (31 December 2010: Nil, 31 December 2009: Nil).
1.4.3 Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group is unable to meet its payment obligations associated with its financial liabilities as they fall due and to
replace funds when they are withdrawn.
The Group is exposed to daily calls on its available cash resources from overnight deposits, current accounts, maturing deposits and calls on
cash settled contingencies. The Group does not maintain cash resources to meet all of these needs as experience shows that a minimum level
of reinvestment of maturing funds can be predicted with a high level of certainty. The Bank of Zambia requires that the Group maintain a cash
reserve ratio. In addition, the Board sets limits on the minimum proportion of maturing funds available to meet such calls and on the
minimum level of inter‐bank and other borrowing facilities in place to cover withdrawals at unexpected levels of demand. The treasury
department monitors liquidity ratios on a daily basis.

1.4 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)
1.4.4 Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, which include currency exchange rates and interest rates, will affect the fair value or
future cash flows of a financial instrument. Market risk arises from open positions in interest rates and foreign currencies, both of which are
exposed to general and specific market movements and changes in the level of volatility. The objective of market risk management is to
manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable limits, while optimising the return on risk. Overall responsibility for managing
market risk rests with the Assets and Liabilities Committee (ALCO). The Treasury department is responsible for the development of detailed
risk management policies (subject to review and approval by ALCO) and for the day to day implementation of those policies.
1.4.5 Currency risk
The Group takes on exposure to the effects of fluctuations in the prevailing foreign currency exchange rates on its financial position and cash
flows. The Board sets limits on the level of exposure by currency and in total for both overnight and intra‐day positions, which are monitored
daily. The table below summarises the Group’s financial instrument exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk categorised by currency:

1.4.6 Interest rate risk
The Group takes on exposure to the effects of fluctuations in the prevailing levels of market interest rates on both its fair value and cash flow
risks. Interest margins may increase as a result of such changes but may reduce or create losses in the event that unexpected movements
arise. The Board of Directors sets limits on the level of mismatch of interest rate re‐pricing that may be undertaken, which is monitored daily.

1.4 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)
1.4.6 Interest rate risk (continued)
Included in the table above are the Group’s assets and liabilities at carrying amounts, categorised by the earlier of contractual re‐pricing or
maturity dates. The Group does not bear an interest rate risk on off balance sheet items.
The matching and controlled mismatching of the maturities and interest rates of assets and liabilities is fundamental to the management of
the Group. It is unusual for banks to be completely matched since business transacted is often of uncertain terms and of different types. An
unmatched position potentially enhances profitability, but can also increase the risk of losses.
The maturities of assets and liabilities and the ability to replace, at an acceptable cost, interest‐bearing liabilities as they mature, are important
factors in assessing the liquidity of the Group and its exposure to changes in interest rates and exchange rates.
1.4.7 Fair values of financial assets and liabilities
The fair value of held to maturity investment securities at 31 December 2011 is estimated at ZK66,880 million (31 December 2010:ZK52,101
million, 31 December 2009: ZK58,039 million). The fair values of the Group’s other financial assets and liabilities approximate the respective
carrying amounts, due to the generally short periods to contractual re‐pricing or maturity dates as set out above. Fair values are based on
discounted cash flows using a discount rate based upon the borrowing rate that the Directors expect would be available to the Group at the

1.4.8 Operational risk
Operational risk is the risk of direct or indirect loss arising from a wide variety of causes associated with the Group’s processes, personnel,
technology and infrastructure, and from external factors other than credit, market and liquidity risks such as those arising from legal and
regulatory requirements and generally accepted standards of corporate behaviour. Operation risk arises from all of the Group's operations and
are faced by all business entities.
The Group’s objective is to manage operational risk so as to balance the avoidance of financial losses and damage to the Group’s reputation
with overall cost effectiveness and to avoid control procedures that restrict initiative and creativity.
The primary responsibility for the development and implementation of controls to address operational risk is assigned to senior management
within each business unit. This responsibility is supported by the development of overall Bank standards for the management of operational
risk in the following areas:
requirements for appropriate segregation of duties, including the independent authorisation of transactions
requirements for the reconciliation and monitoring of transactions
compliance with regulatory and other legal requirements
documentation of controls and procedures
requirements for the periodic assessment of operational risks faced, and the adequacy of controls and procedures to address the risks
identified
requirements for the reporting of operational losses and proposed remedial action
development of contingency plans
training and professional development
ethical and business standards
risk mitigation, including insurance where this is effective.

1.4 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)
1.4.9 Capital risk management
The Group’s objectives, when managing capital, which is a broader concept than the ‘equity’ on the balance sheets are:
To comply with the capital requirements set by the Banking and Financial services Act;
To safeguard the Bank’s ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits
for other stakeholders;
To maintain a strong capital base to support the development of its business.
Capital adequacy and use of regulatory capital are monitored regularly by management, employing techniques based on the guidelines
developed by the Basel Committee, as implemented by the Bank of Zambia for supervisory purposes. The required information is filed with
the Bank of Zambia on a monthly basis.
The Bank of Zambia requires each Bank to:
Hold the minimum level of regulatory capital of ZK520,000 million for foreign owned banks and ZK104,000 million for locally owned
banks
Maintain a ratio of total regulatory capital to the risk weighted assets plus risk weighted off balance sheet assets (the ‘Basel ratio’) at or
above the required minimum of 10%
Maintain primary or tier 1 capital of not less than 5% of total risk weighted assets and
Maintain total capital of not less than 10% of risk weighted assets plus risk weighted off balance sheet items.
The Group’s total regulatory capital is divided into two tiers:
Tier 1 capital (primary capital): common shareholders’ equity, qualifying preferred shares and minority shares in the equity of shareholders
that are less than wholly owned.
Tier 2 capital (secondary capital): qualifying preferred shares, 40% of revaluation reserves, subordinated term debt or loan stock with a
minimum original term of maturity of over five years (subject to a straight line amortisation during the last five years leaving no more than
20% of the original amount outstanding in the final year before redemption) and other capital instruments which the Bank of Zambia may
allow. The maximum amount of secondary capital is limited to 100% of secondary capital.
The risk weighted assets are measured by means of a hierarchy of four risk weights classified according to the nature of and reflecting an
estimate of the credit risk associated with – each asset and counterparty. A similar treatment is adopted for off balance sheet exposure, with
some adjustments to reflect the more contingent nature of the potential losses.

1.4 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)
1.4.9 Capital risk management (continued)
In 2011 the Bank’s capital position fell the statutory limit of 25% single name lending limit for large loan exposures in the months outlined
below. The Bank of Zambia granted dispensation on condition that the exposure will be regularised within 270 days. The position was
corrected by the injection of ZK10,000 million Tier 2 capital.

During the month of November 2011, the actual regulatory capital of ZK13,485 million was lower than the minimum required amount of
ZK16,927 million by ZK3,442 million. The condition was regularised following receipt of ZK10,000 million Tier 2 capital.
