The value of securities is stated based on the classification of the securities, as follows: 1  Trading  securities  are  stated  at  fair  value.  The  unrealized  gainslosses  resulting  from  the
increasedecrease  in fair  value are recognized  in the current  year’s consolidated profit and  loss. Upon the sale of securities in a trading portfolio, the difference between selling price and fair value
per books is recognized as a realized gain or loss on sale. 2  Available  for  sale  securities  are  stated  at  fair  value.  Unrealized  gainslosses  resulting  from  the
increasedecrease  in  fair  value  are  not  recognized  in  the  current  year’s  consolidated  profit  and loss  but  are  presented  as  a  separate  component  of  shareholders’  equity.  Gainslosses  are
recognized in income and loss upon realization. 3  Held to maturity securities are stated at cost adjusted for unamortized discounts or premiums.

on  the  balance  sheet  date,  adjusted  for  transaction  costs  necessary  to  realize  the  assets.  For securities where there is no quoted market price, a reasonable estimate of the fair value is determined
by  reference  to  the  current  market  value  of  another  instrument  which  is  substantially  the  same  or  is calculated  based  on  the  expected  cash  flows  of  the  underlying  net  asset  base  of  securities.  Any
permanent  decline  in  the  fair  value  of  securities  held  to  maturity  and  available  for  sale  is  charged  to current year’s consolidated profit or loss.
Purchase and sale of securities transactions both for the customer and for the Bank are recognized in the consolidated financial statements when there is an agreement on securities transactions.
