Principal Activities of the Bank NS Bank (the Bank) was founded in 1994 as a limited liability company in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation. The Bank was reorganised by restructuring into a closed joint stock company on the basis of the decision of the General Participants’ Meeting (Minutes No. 46 of 20 April 2001) and registered by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation (the Bank of Russia, CBR) on 8 August 2001, registration No. 3124. In 2013 the Bank operated on the basis of the following licenses: General License No. 3124 of 20 August 2003 issued by the Bank of Russia for banking operations with funds of individuals and legal entities in Russian Roubles and foreign currency; License No. 3124 of 20 August 2003 issued by the Bank of Russia for banking operations to borrow and sell precious metals; FFMS licenses of the professional securities market participant: – No. 177-07407-100000 of 27.01.2004 for broker activities with unlimited validity period; – No. 177-07409-010000 of 27.01.2004 for dealer activities with unlimited validity period; – No. 177-07421-000100 of 30.01.2004 for depository activities with unlimited validity period; – No. 177-07413-001000 of 27.01.2004 for securities management with unlimited validity period. The priority lines of the Bank’s business are commercial banking operations on the territory of the Russian Federation. The Bank has 5 branches in the Russian Federation. Legal and mailing address of the Bank is at: 20/2 Dobrovolcheskaya Str., Moscow, 109004. Since 10 February 2005 the Bank has been a member of the Obligatory Deposit Insurance System regulated by the State Corporation “Deposit Insurance Agency”. The average annual number of the Bank’s employees in 2013 was 543 (2012: 521). The Bank is a member of the Association of Russian Banks, Association of Regional Banks of Russia, Moscow Interbank Currency Exchange (MICEX), Moscow International Currency Association, National Securities Market Association, Russian National SWIFT Association, international payment systems VISA International and MasterCard Worldwide, international funds transfer systems Western Union, LEADER, Golden Crown and Unistream payment systems, Guild of Financial Managers, Guild of Kremlin Suppliers. On 24 February 2014 the rating agency “Expert RA” affirmed the Bank's creditworthiness rating at “A+” “Very high level of creditworthiness” with a “stable” outlook. On 2 September 2013 the National Rating Agency upgraded the Bank's creditworthiness rating to “AA-” “Very high creditworthiness (Level 3)”. On 4 April 2013 the international rating agency Moody’s Investors Service affirmed the following NS Bank's ratings: the financial stability rating “E+”, the long-term foreign currency and local currency deposits rating “B3” and “Not-Prime” short-term foreign and local currency deposits rating. At the same time, Moody’s Interfax Rating Agency affirmed the Bank’s long-term national scale credit rating “Baa3.ru”. The outlook for the financial stability rating and the long-term foreign currency and local currency deposits rating was changed to “stable”. 11 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) Below is the information on the Bank’s main shareholders: Shareholder Yu.G.

Operating Environment of the Bank General The economy of the Russian Federation continues to display certain characteristics of an emerging market. These characteristics include, in particular, inconvertibility of the national currency in most countries outside of Russia and relatively high inflation rates. The Russian tax, currency and customs legislation is subject to varying interpretations and frequent changes. Russia continues development of the legal, tax and administrative framework to comply with the market economy requirements. The economic reforms conducted by the Government are aimed at retooling the Russian economy, development of hightech productions, enhancement of labour productivity and competitiveness of the Russian products on the world market. The ongoing uncertainty and volatility of the financial markets, including the European region, as well as other risks could have significant negative effects on the Russian financial and corporate sectors. It is impossible to estimate reliably what impact the above financial market uncertainty and volatility will have on the Bank’s operations. Management determined loan impairment provisions using the “incurred loss” model required by the applicable accounting standards. These standards require recognition of impairment losses arising from past events and prohibit recognition of impairment losses that could arise from future events, including future changes in the economic environment, no matter how likely those future events are (Note 4). In 2013 the Russian economy continued its recovery started in 2010 and accompanied by GDP growth, declining unemployment and stabilisation in inflation rates. Despite certain signs of recovery, future economic growth remains uncertain. During 2013 key exchange indices slid down several times, recovering slightly at the year-end, and most transactions on the stock exchanges were of speculative nature. On 28 June 2013 Standard & Poor's confirmed Russia’s short-term foreign currency sovereign credit rating at ВВВ/А-2. The long-term foreign currency sovereign credit rating was reaffirmed at ВВВ/А-3, and the long- and short-term local currency sovereign credit ratings were reaffirmed at BBB+/A-2, stable outlook. On 27 March 2013 Moody's Investors Service confirmed Russia’s rating at “Baa1” with a sustainable forecast. 12 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) There is an obligatory Deposit Insurance System established in the Russian Federation. According to the deposit insurance legislation, 100% is compensated to the depositor if the deposit amount does not exceed RUB 700 thousand. To calculate the compensation, foreign currency denominated deposits are restated at the exchange rate set by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation at the date of the insured event, and the amounts due to banks from depositors are deducted from the deposit amount. In 2013 the situation in the banking sector was characterised by growth in assets, loans issued and profits, but the quality of assets continues to remain a critical issue. The banking liquidity is mainly influenced by measures undertaken by the CBR and the Government in the framework of the monetary policy. In 2013 the refinancing rate did not change and remained at 8.25% per annum, required reserve ratios for credit institutions' obligations amounted to 4.25%. The future economic direction of the Russian Federation is largely dependent upon the effectiveness of economic, financial and monetary measures undertaken by the Government, together with tax, legal, regulatory, and political developments. Inflation Russia continues to experience relatively high levels of inflation. The inflation indices for the last five years are given in the table below: Year ended 31 31 31 31 31 December December December December December Inflation for the period 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 6.5% 6.6% 6.1% 8.8% 8.8% Currency transactions Foreign currencies, in particular the US Dollar and EUR, play a significant role in the underlying economics of many business transactions in the Russian Federation. The table below shows exchange rates of RUB relative to USD and EUR as set by the CBR: Date 31 31 31 31 31 3. December December December December December 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 USD EUR 32.7292 30.3727 32.1961 30.4769 30.2442 44.9699 40.2286 41.6714 40.3331 43.3883 Basis of Presentation General principles These financial statements of the Bank are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The Bank maintains its accounting records in accordance with the applicable legislation of the Russian Federation. These financial statements have been prepared on the basis of those accounting records and adjusted as necessary in order to comply, in all material respects, with IFRS. Functional and presentation currency These financial statements are presented in Russian Roubles being the Bank’s functional and presentation currency. All amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest thousand roubles, unless otherwise stated. Estimates and assumptions The preparation of the financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements preparation, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Issues that require management’s estimate and are most significant for the financial statements are disclosed in Notes 4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11 and 28. 13 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) Going concern These financial statements reflect the Bank management’s current assessment of the impact of the Russian business environment on the operations and the financial position of the Bank. The future economic direction of the Russian Federation is largely dependent upon the effectiveness of measures undertaken by the RF Government and other factors, including regulatory and political developments which are beyond the Bank’s control. The Bank’s management cannot predict what impact these factors can have on the Bank’s financial position in future. These financial statements were prepared on a going concern assumption. The Bank’s liquidity position disclosed in Note 26 indicates that the Bank has no sufficient funds to meet its obligations. However, the deficit does not prevent the Bank from conducting its day-to-day operations. The Bank complies with mandatory liquidity ratios set by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation. For prompt management of the liquidity risk the Bank regularly monitors external factors, which could influence the Bank’s liquidity level, and forecasts cash flows. For the medium- and long-term liquidity risk management the Bank analyses maturity mismatches of assets and liabilities. To reduce its risk exposure the Bank sets liquidity gap limits. The set limits are periodically reviewed to reflect the changes in external and internal environment. To maintain the required liquidity level the Bank can attract additional funds from the Central Bank of Russia and in the interbank market. Diversification of liquidity sources allows to minimise the Bank’s dependence on any source and ensure full satisfaction of its liabilities. A sufficient current liquidity cushion accumulated by the Bank and the available sources of additional fund-raising allow the Bank to continue its operations as a going concern on a long term basis. Changes in Accounting Policies The accounting policies adopted are generally consistent with those of the previous financial year. Listed below are those new and amended standards and interpretations which are or in the future could be relevant to the Bank’s operations: IAS 27 “Separate Financial Statements” (effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013). This standard and IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements” supersede IAS 27 “Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements” (as amended in 2003). IAS 27 clarifies transition requirements regarding changes in IAS 21, 28 and 31 caused by revision of IAS 27 (as amended in January 2008). IAS 27 sets out requirements for accounting for and disclosure of information about an entity’s investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates when preparing separate financial statements. IAS 28 “Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures” (effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013). This standard is a revised version of IAS 28 "Investments in Associates" (as amended in 2003) and sets out requirements for the application of the equity method when accounting for investments in associates and joint ventures. IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements” (effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013). The new standard supersedes IAS 27 "Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements" and SIC 12 “Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities”. IFRS 10 introduces a unified threelevel control model: the investor can have control provided that the three criteria are met: - (a) the investor has power over the investee; - (b) the investor is exposed or has rights to variable returns from its involvement with that investee; - (c) the investor has the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the investor's returns. IFRS 11 “Joint Arrangements” (applied retrospectively to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013). The new standard supersedes IAS 31 “Interests in Joint Ventures”. The main change introduced by IFRS 11 relates to the classification of all types of joint arrangements into joint operations, which are accounted for on a proportionate consolidation basis, or joint ventures, for which the equity method is used. The type of joint arrangement is determined based on rights and obligations of the parties to the arrangement arising from joint arrangement’s structure, legal form, contractual arrangement and other facts and circumstances. Early adoption of IFRS 11 is permitted provided an entity also early adopts IFRS 10, IFRS 12, IAS 27 and IAS 28 (as amended in 2011). 14 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) IFRS 12 “Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities” (effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013). The new standard contains disclosure requirements for entities that have interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and unconsolidated structured entities. Interests in another entity are widely defined as contractual and non-contractual involvement that exposes an entity to variability of returns from the performance of the other entity. Amended and new requirements for disclosing information aim to provide the users of financial statements with information that would enable them to assess the nature of the risks related to the entity’s interests in other entities and the effect of those interests on the entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. To comply with the new requirements the entity should disclose significant judgments and assumptions made in determining the nature of its interest in another entity or arrangement and in determining the type of joint arrangement in which it has an interest, as well as information on its involvement in subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and unconsolidated structured entities. In case of full early adoption of IFRS 12 it is also necessary to adopt IFRS 10, IFRS 11, IAS 27, and IAS 28 (as amended in 2011). IFRS 13 “Fair Value Measurement” (applied prospectively for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013; early adoption is permitted). The new standard replaces fair value measurement guidance contained in individual IFRSs with a single source of fair value measurement guidance. It provides a revised definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and sets out disclosure requirements for fair value measurement. IFRS 13 does not introduce new requirements for measurement of assets and liabilities at fair value nor does it eliminate the exceptions to fair value measurement currently applicable to certain standards. Amendment to IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements: Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income” (applied retrospectively for annual periods beginning from 1 July 2012; early adoption is permitted). The amendment requires that an entity present separately items of other comprehensive income that may be reclassified to profit or loss in the future from those that will never be reclassified to profit or loss. Additionally, the amendment changes the title of the statement of comprehensive income to ‘statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income’ (the use of other wording in the title is permitted). Amendment to IAS 19 “Employee Benefits” (applied retrospectively for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013; early adoption is permitted). The amendment makes significant changes to the recognition and measurement of defined benefit pension expense and termination benefits. The amendment also makes significant changes to disclosures for all employee benefits. Amendment to IFRS 7 “Financial Instruments — Disclosures” (amendments are applied retrospectively to annual reporting periods effective since 1 January 2013). This amendment requires a disclosure which will enable the financial statement users to assess the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements, including the rights to offset. The changes described above did not have a material impact on the Bank’s financial statements. IFRSs and IFRIC Interpretations not yet effective The Bank has not applied the following IFRSs and Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) that have been issued but are not yet effective: IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013; however, the date can be postponed to 1 January 2015; early adoption is permitted). This standard was issued in November 2009 as the first phase of replacing IAS 39 and replaces those parts of IAS 39 that relate to classification and measurement of financial assets. The second phase of replacing this standard regarding the classification and measurement of financial liabilities took place in October 2010. The main differences of the new standard are as follows: - financial assets are required to be classified into two measurement categories: those to be measured subsequently at fair value, and those to be measured subsequently at amortised cost. The decision is to be made at initial recognition. The classification depends on the entity’s business model for managing its financial instruments and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the instrument; 15 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) - a financial instrument is subsequently measured at amortised cost only if it is a debt instrument and both (i) the objective of the entity’s business model is to hold the asset to collect the contractual cash flows, and (ii) the asset’s contractual cash flows represent only payments of principal and interest (that is, it has only “basic loan features”). All other debt instruments are to be measured at fair value through profit or loss; - all equity instruments are to be measured subsequently at fair value. Equity instruments that are held for trading will be measured at fair value through profit or loss. For all other equity investments, an irrevocable election can be made at initial recognition, to recognise unrealised and realised fair value gains and losses through other comprehensive income rather than profit or loss. There is to be no recycling of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss. This election may be made on an instrument-by-instrument basis. Dividends are to be presented in profit or loss, as long as they represent a return on investment. Amendments to IAS 32 “Financial Instruments — Disclosures” (amendments are applied retrospectively to annual reporting periods effective since 1 January 2013). These amendments introduce guidance for application of IAS 32 in order to remove inconsistencies in the application of some of the offsetting criteria. The amendments clarify the meaning of ‘currently has a legally enforceable right of set-off’ and that some gross settlement systems may be considered equivalent to net settlement. Amendments to IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets” (effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014, early adoption is permitted). The amendments remove the requirement to disclose the recoverable amount when a CGU contains goodwill or indefinite lived intangible assets but there has been no impairment. Amendments to IAS 39 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” (effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014, early adoption is permitted). The amendments provide relief from the requirement for the discontinuance of hedge accounting in IAS 39 and IFRS 9 in circumstances when a hedging instrument is required to be novated to a central counterparty as a result of laws or regulations. IFRIC 21 “Levies” (effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014, early adoption is permitted). IFRIC 21 is an interpretation of IAS 37 “Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets”. The Interpretation sets out the accounting for an obligation to pay a levy that is not income tax. It clarifies, that the obligating event that gives rise to a liability to pay a levy, is the activity described in the relevant legislation that triggers the payment of the levy. The liability for the levies is recognised in the financial statements when the event set by the relevant legislation occurs. The Bank is currently assessing the adoption of these IFRS and amendments, the impact of their application on the Bank and the timing of their adoption. Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are those entities in which the Bank, directly or indirectly, has an interest of more than one half of the voting rights or otherwise has the power to exercise control over financial and operating policies. In April 2001 the Bank set up a subsidiary NPF “Centre of Information Technologies in Building Industry” LLC. In June 2013 the Bank withdrew from NPF “Centre of Information Technologies in Building Industry” LLC. Subsidiary NPF “Centre of Information Technologies in Building Industry” LLC Country of registration Nature of business Russia Consulting services 31 December 2013 31 December 2012 Total Ownership, Total Ownership, investments % investments % - 16 - 10 100.0 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) In accordance with requirements of Federal Law No. 208-FZ of 27 July 2010 “On Consolidated Financial Statements”, the Bank prepared the annual consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2013, which are available at the Bank’s address indicated in Note 1. Investments in closed-end unit investment funds (CEUIF) The Bank makes investments in closed-end unit investment funds (CEUIF). Investments in CEUIF are classified as other assets and other liabilities depending on the structure of the CEUIF balance sheet and are subsequently recognised in accordance with the accounting policies for the respective category of asset/liability. As at 31 December 2013 and 31 December 2012, the Bank has investments in the following CEUIFs: Description 31 December 2013 31 December 2012 Total Ownership, Total Ownership, investments % investments % United Management Company LLC: Real estate CEUIF “United Urban” CEUIF of direct investments “Stable” Real estate CEUIF “BEST Development” Real estate CEUIF “United Real Estate” 4. 2 556 966 - 96.1 - 201 438 339 253 000 897 197 105 100.0 100.0 99.2 100.0 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents are assets, which can be converted into cash within a day and consist of cash on hand, balances on correspondent and current accounts of the Bank, overnight deposits, cash deposits with MICEX, cash on broker accounts and cash balances with clearing nonbank institutions. All short-term interbank placements (other than overnight deposits) are included in due from other banks. Amounts, which relate to funds that are of a restricted nature, are excluded from cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents exclude mandatory cash balances with the Central Bank of the Russian Federation. Mandatory cash balances with the Central Bank of the Russian Federation Mandatory cash balances with the Central Bank of the Russian Federation represent mandatory reserve deposits with CBR, which are not available to finance the Bank’s day-to-day operations. The mandatory reserve balance is excluded from cash and cash equivalents for the purposes of the statement of cash flows. Financial assets The Bank classifies its financial assets in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss; loans and receivables (this category includes due from other banks and loans to customers); financial assets available for sale. The Bank determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition. Classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the purpose for which they were acquired and their characteristics. Initial recognition of financial assets The Bank recognises financial assets and financial liabilities in its statement of financial position when it becomes a party to the contractual obligation of the financial instrument. Regular way purchases and sales of the financial assets and liabilities are recognised using settlement date accounting. All financial assets are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to acquisition or issue of the financial asset in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss. 17 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) Fair value measurement Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction in the principal (or most advantageous) market at the measurement date under current market conditions (i.e. an exit price) regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. The Bank must have access to the principal or most advantageous market. An entity shall measure the fair value of an asset or a liability using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest. Fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use. All assets and liabilities for which fair value is recognised or disclosed are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole: Level 1 — quoted market prices in an active market (that are unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities); Level 2 — valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable; Level 3 — valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable. For assets and liabilities that are remeasured in the financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis, the Bank determines whether transfers have occurred between Levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period. The Bank’s securities portfolio comprises securities traded on the organised market – MICEX SE CJSC. Transactions on MICEX SE CJSC are conducted on a regular basis and information on the current quotations of the active market is publicly available. Active market quotations are the best evidence for determining the current fair value of financial instruments. The Bank engages external valuers to measure material assets, such as investment property. A decision to engage external valuers is taken annually by the Bank’s Executive Board, which is governed by such selection criteria as market knowledge, reputation, independence and professional compliance. At each reporting date the Bank analyses movements in the values of financial assets and liabilities which are required to be re-measured or re-assessed in accordance with the Bank’s accounting policies. For this analysis, the Bank verifies the major inputs applied in the latest valuation by agreeing the information in the valuation computation. For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Bank has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above (Note 29). The fair value of financial instruments traded on the active market as at the reporting date is determined based on the market or dealers’ quotations including transaction costs. If a quoted market price is not available, the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the statement of financial position is estimated on the basis of market prices for similar financial instruments or using various valuation techniques, including mathematical models. Inputs for such models are based on observable market data or judgement. Judgement is based on the time value of money, credit risk level, volatility of the instrument, market risk level and other applicable factors, if such information is available. 18 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) Amortised cost of financial instruments The amortised cost of a financial asset or financial liability is the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at initial recognition minus principal repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortisation using the effective interest method of any difference between that initial amount and the maturity amount, and minus any reduction (directly or through the use of an allowance account) for impairment or uncollectibility. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset or a financial liability (or group of financial assets or financial liabilities) and of allocating the 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 instrument or, when appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. When calculating the effective interest rate, the Bank shall estimate cash flows considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment, call and similar options) but shall not consider future credit losses. The calculation includes all fees and points paid or received between parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs, and all other premiums or discounts. There is a presumption that the cash flows and the expected life of a group of similar financial instruments can be estimated reliably. However, in those rare cases when it is not possible to estimate reliably the cash flows or the expected life of a financial instrument (or group of financial instruments), the Bank shall use the contractual cash flows over the full contractual term of the financial instrument (or group of financial instruments. Derecognition of financial assets A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or a group of similar financial assets) is derecognised where: the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired; the Bank has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset, or retained the right to receive cash flows from the asset, but has assumed an obligation to pay them in full without material delay to a third party; and the Bank either has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset. If the transferee has no practical ability to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party without needing to impose additional restrictions on the transfer, the entity has retained control. Where the Bank has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset and has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset nor transferred control of the asset, the asset is recognised to the extent of the Bank’s continuing involvement in the asset. Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Bank could be required to repay. Reclassification of financial assets The Bank shall not reclassify out of the fair value through profit or loss category a derivative financial instrument while it is held or issued or any financial instrument classified at initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets available for sale may be reclassified into loans and receivables if the Bank has a positive intention and the ability to hold these financial assets for the foreseeable future or until maturity. If financial assets are reclassified into loans and receivables or investments held to maturity, the fair value on the date of reclassification will become the new cost of these financial assets. Subsequently these assets are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. If, as a result of a change in intention or ability, it is no longer appropriate to classify an investment as held to maturity, it shall be reclassified as financial assets available for sale and remeasured at fair value. Unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of financial assets available for sale are recorded in the statement of comprehensive income as other comprehensive income. 19 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) The Bank shall not classify any financial assets as investments held to maturity if the Bank has, during the current financial year or during the two preceding financial years, sold or reclassified more than an insignificant amount of held-to-maturity investments before maturity (more than insignificant in relation to the total amount of held-to-maturity investments) other than sales or reclassifications that: are so close to maturity or the financial asset's call date (for example, less than three months before maturity) that changes in the market rate of interest would not have a significant effect on the financial asset's fair value; occur after the Bank has collected substantially all of the financial asset's original principal through scheduled payments or prepayments; or are attributable to an isolated event that is beyond the Bank's control, is non-recurring and could not have been reasonably anticipated by the Bank. Whenever sales or reclassifications of more than an insignificant amount of held-to-maturity investments do not meet any of the conditions of the classification, any remaining held-to-maturity investments shall be reclassified as available for sale. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include derivative financial instruments. Derivative financial instruments including futures, currency exchange contracts and interest rate swaps with positive fair value other than derivative instruments designated and effective as hedges are initially recorded in the statement of financial position as other assets at cost (including transaction costs) and subsequently remeasured at their fair value. Fair values are obtained from quoted market prices or using the spot rate at the year-end as the basis depending on the type of transaction. Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments are included in gains less losses arising from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss or in gains less losses from dealing in foreign currency or precious metals depending on the type of transaction. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are included in other assets in the statement of financial position. Due from other banks In the normal course of business, the Bank places funds for various periods of time with other banks. Amounts due from other banks with a fixed maturity term are not intended for immediate or short-term trading and are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Those that do not have fixed maturities are carried at amortised cost calculated based on expected maturity. Due from other banks are carried net of any allowance for impairment. Loans to customers This category includes non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market, other than: those that the entity intends to sell immediately or in the near term, which shall be classified as held for trading, and those that the entity upon initial recognition designates as at fair value through profit or loss; those that the entity upon initial recognition designates as available for sale; those for which the holder may not recover substantially all of its initial investment, other than because of credit deterioration, which shall be classified as available for sale. Loans to customers are initially recorded at cost, which is the fair value of the consideration given. Subsequently, they are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method less provision for loan impairment. Loans to customers are recorded when cash is advanced to borrowers. 20 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) Loans to customers originated at interest rates different from market rates are remeasured at origination to their fair values, being future interest payments and principal repayment(s) discounted at market interest rates for similar loans. The difference between the fair value and the nominal value at origination is credited or charged to the statement of comprehensive income as gains /losses on origination of assets at rates above/below market. Subsequently, the carrying amount of such loans is adjusted for amortisation of gain or loss on the loan issued and the related gains/losses are recorded within the statement of comprehensive income using the effective interest method. The Bank does not acquire loans from third parties. Financial assets available for sale Financial assets available for sale are non-derivative financial assets not included into any of the above categories and not classified as investments held to maturity. Financial assets available for sale are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to acquisition or issue of the financial asset. Financial assets available for sale are subsequently remeasured to fair value based on quoted bid prices. Certain financial assets available for sale for which there is no available independent quotation have been fair valued by the Bank’s management on the basis of results of recent sales of similar financial assets to unrelated third parties or determined on the basis of indicative quotations for purchase/sale of each type of securities published by information agencies or provided by professional securities market participants. If there is no active market and it is impossible to determine the fair value of equity securities using reliable methods, investments are recognised at acquisition cost. Unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of financial assets available for sale are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income as other comprehensive income. When financial assets available for sale are disposed of, the related accumulated unrealised gains and losses previously recognised as other comprehensive income are reclassified to the statement of comprehensive income as gains less losses arising from financial assets available for sale. Disposals of financial assets available for sale are recorded using the FIFO method. Interest earned on debt securities available for sale is determined using the effective interest method and reflected in the statement of comprehensive income as interest income. Dividends received on equity investments available for sale are recorded in the statement of comprehensive income when the Bank’s right to receive dividends is established and dividends are likely to be received. Promissory notes purchased Promissory notes purchased are included in financial assets available for sale, investments held to maturity, due from other banks or loans to customers, depending on their economic substance and are subsequently accounted for in accordance with the accounting policies for these categories of assets. Impairment of financial assets The Bank assesses on the closing date whether there is any objective evidence that the value of a financial asset item or group of items has been impaired. Impairment losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income as they are incurred 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 amount or timing of the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. If the Bank determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, it includes the asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses them for impairment. (1) Impairment of due from other banks and loans to customers For amounts due from other banks and loans to customers carried at amortised cost, the Bank first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. Objective evidence that due from other banks and loans to customers are impaired includes observable data about the following events in respect of individually significant financial assets: default in any payments due; significant financial difficulty of the borrower supported by financial information at the Bank’s disposal; 21 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation; worsening national or local economic environment affecting the borrower; breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; the lender, for economic or legal reasons relating to the borrower's financial difficulty, granting to the borrower a concession that the lender would not otherwise consider. Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is recognised are not included in a collective assessment of impairment. If the Bank determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, it includes the asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses them for impairment. For the purpose of a collective evaluation of impairment, financial assets are grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics such as asset type, industry, geographical location, collateral type, payment status and other relevant factors. The characteristics chosen are relevant to the estimation of future cash flows for groups of such assets by being indicative of the borrowers' ability to pay all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the assets being evaluated. The main criterion used for determining objective evidence of loss from impairment of due from other banks and loans to customers representing collectively measured financial assets is availability of observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a group of financial assets since the initial recognition of those assets, although the decrease cannot yet be identified with the individual financial assets in the group. Such information may include adverse changes in the payment status of borrowers in the group (for example, an increased number of delayed payments or an increased number of credit card borrowers who have reached their credit limit and are paying the minimum monthly amount), national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on the assets in the group (for example, an increase in the unemployment rate in the geographical area of the borrowers, a decrease in property prices for mortgages in the relevant area, a decrease in oil prices for loan assets to oil producers, or adverse changes in industry conditions that affect the borrowers in the group). If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of expected future cash flows. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of the impairment provision account and the amount of the loss is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. For determination of the present value, the estimated future cash flows are discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. If a loan has variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate. 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. Future cash flows in a group of loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment are estimated on the basis of historical loss experience for loans with credit risk characteristics similar to those in the group or on the basis of historical information on collections of past due debts. 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. Estimates of changes in future cash flows reflect and are directionally consistent with changes in related observable data from period to period (such as changes in unemployment rates, property prices, commodity prices, payment status or other factors that are indicative of incurred losses in the group and their magnitude). The methodology and assumptions used for estimating future cash flows are reviewed regularly to reduce any differences between loss estimates and actual loss experience. 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 improvement in the debtor’s credit rating), the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed by adjusting the allowance account in the statement of comprehensive income. Uncollectible assets are written off against the related allowance for impairment after all the necessary procedures to recover the asset in full or in part have been completed and the final amount of the loss has been determined. The carrying amount of impaired financial assets is not reduced directly. 22 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) In accordance with the Russian legislation, in case of a write-off of the uncollectible loan and relating interest, the Bank shall take necessary and adequate steps, envisaged by law, standard business practice or agreement, to collect this outstanding loan. (2) Impairment of financial assets available for sale The Bank assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial investment or a group of investments available for sale is impaired. In case of equity investments classified as available for sale, objective evidence of impairment would include significant financial difficulty of the issuer supported by available information. To assess whether there is any indication of impairment the Bank shall analyse the issuer’s activities taking into account the influence of economic factors, including consequences of changes in the technical, market, economic or legal environment in which the issuer operates. The Bank also assesses other factors such as volatility of price per share. Cumulative loss measured as a difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that asset previously recognised through the profit and loss accounts, is transferred from other comprehensive income to the profit and loss accounts. Impairment losses on equity instruments are not reversed through the profit and loss account: increases in the fair value after impairment are recognised directly in other comprehensive income. In case of unquoted debt instruments not carried at fair value, classified as available for sale, impairment is assessed based on the same criteria as those for financial assets carried at amortised cost. Interest income is based on the reduced carrying amount and is accrued using the rate of interest used to discount future cash flows for the purpose of measuring the impairment loss. The interest income is recorded within interest income in the statement of comprehensive income. If in the subsequent year the fair value of a debt instrument increases, and such increase can be objectively related to the event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised in the statement of comprehensive income, the impairment loss is reversed and the related recovery is recorded in the statement of comprehensive income. Impairment of non-financial assets Non-financial assets, other than deferred taxes, are assessed at each reporting date for any indications of impairment. The recoverable amount of non-financial assets is the greater of their fair value less costs to sell and value in use. Costs to sell are the costs associated with disposal of an asset tested for impairment, less finance costs. Value in use of an asset reviewed for impairment is the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from the use of an asset and its subsequent disposal. If there is not any evidence of impairment of an asset reviewed for impairment, its recoverable amount is not determined. The Bank assesses indications of possible impairment using internal and external data sources. All impairment losses in respect of non-financial assets are recognised in comprehensive income and reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. Any impairment loss is only reversed to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised. Financial liabilities Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, or financial liabilities carried at amortised cost. Initially, a financial liability shall be measured by the Bank at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial liability not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial liability. A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. Where an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. 23 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) Financial liabilities carried at amortised cost Financial liabilities carried at amortised cost include due to other banks, customer accounts, debt securities issued and other borrowed funds. Due to other banks. Due to other banks are recorded when money or other assets are advanced to the Bank by counterparty banks. Customer accounts. Customer accounts are non-derivative financial liabilities to individuals, state or corporate customers in respect of settlement accounts and deposits. Debt securities issued. Debt securities issued include promissory notes issued by the Bank. If the Bank purchases its own debt securities issued, they are removed from the statement of financial position and the difference between the carrying amount of the liability and the consideration paid is included in other operating income as gain from retirement of debt. Other borrowed funds. Other borrowed funds include subordinated loans received by the Bank and are recorded as cash is advanced to the Bank. Repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements Sale and repurchase agreements (“repo” agreements) are treated as secured financing transactions. Securities sold under sale and repurchase agreements are not derecognised, and the securities are not reclassified. The corresponding liability is presented within due to other banks or customer accounts. Securities purchased under agreements to resell (“reverse repo” agreements) are recorded as due from other banks or loans to customers, as appropriate. The difference between the sale and repurchase price is treated as interest income in the statement of comprehensive income and accrued over the life of repo agreements using the effective interest rate method. Securities lent by the Bank to counterparties continue as a loan for fixed compensation to be recognised in the Bank’s financial statements as securities. Securities borrowed for fixed compensation are not recorded in the Bank’s financial statements except when they are sold to third parties. In such cases, the financial result from sale and purchase of such securities is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income within gains less losses arising from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. The obligation to return the securities is recorded as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. Offsetting Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the statement of financial position only when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts, and there is an intention to either settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Non-current assets classified as held for sale Non-current assets (which may include both non-current and current assets) are classified in the statement of financial position as non-current assets held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction within twelve months after the reporting date. Both financial and non-financial assets are reclassified when all of the following conditions are met: (a) the assets are available for immediate sale in their present condition; (b) the Bank’s management approved and initiated an active programme to locate a buyer; (c) the assets are actively marketed for a sale at a reasonable price; (d) the sale is expected within one year; and (e) it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan to sell will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn by the Bank’s management. Non-current assets classified as held for sale in the current period’s statement of financial position shall not be reclassified in the comparative statement of financial position. 24 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) Held for sale premises and equipment, investment property, intangible assets as a whole are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Held for sale premises and equipment and intangible assets are not depreciated or amortised. The Bank recognises an impairment loss for any initial or subsequent write-down of the asset to fair value less costs to sell. Reclassified non-current financial instruments, deferred taxes and investment properties held at fair value are not subject to the write down to the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Premises and equipment Premises and equipment are stated at cost or at revalued amount, as described below, less accumulated depreciation and impairment provision. Premises and equipment acquired prior to 1 January 2003 are restated to the equivalent purchasing power of the Russian Rouble as at that date. At the end of each reporting period the Bank assesses whether there is any indication of impairment of premises and equipment. If such indication exists, the Bank estimates the recoverable amount, which is determined as the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. Where the carrying amount of premises and equipment is greater than their estimated recoverable amount, it is written down to their recoverable amount and the difference is charged as impairment loss to the statement of comprehensive income. The Bank’s buildings are revalued on a regular basis. The frequency of revaluations depends on changes in the fair value of the assets subjected to revaluation. After initial recognition at cost, buildings are carried at a revalued amount, which is the fair value of the items at the date of the revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Revaluations are performed regularly to avoid significant differences between the fair value of the revalued asset and its carrying amount. When buildings are revalued, any accumulated depreciation at the date of the revaluation is eliminated against gross carrying amount of the asset and the net amount is restated to the revalued amount of the asset Any revaluation surplus is recorded in the statement of comprehensive income as other comprehensive income, except to the extent that it reverses a revaluation decrease of the same asset previously recognised through profit or loss. A decrease arising as a result of a revaluation is recognised as profit or loss in the statement of comprehensive income, except that revaluation deficit is directly offset against the previous surplus from revaluation of the same asset recorded within other comprehensive income as effect of revaluation of premises and equipment. The revaluation reserve for premises and equipment is transferred directly to retained earnings when the surplus is realised, i.e. either on the retirement or disposal of the asset. Gains and losses on disposal of premises and equipment are determined by reference to their carrying amount and recorded as operating expenses in the statement of comprehensive income. Repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of comprehensive income when the expense is incurred. Construction in progress is carried at cost less impairment provision. As soon as construction is completed, assets are reclassified as premises and equipment at their carrying value at the date of reclassification. Construction in progress is not depreciated until the asset is available for use. Depreciation Depreciation of premises and equipment commences from the date the assets are ready for use. Depreciation is charged on a straight line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets: Buildings – from 26 years to 30 years; Motor vehicles – from 2 years to 7 years; Equipment and computers – from 2 years to 20 years; Furniture – from 2 years to 7 years. 25 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) At the end of the service life, the residual value of an asset is the estimated amount that the Bank would currently obtain from disposal of the asset less the estimated costs of disposal, if the asset were already of the age and in the condition expected at the end of its useful life. The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. Investments in construction Investments in construction represent the Bank’s share in the investment contracts of developers of residential real estate and business centres acquired for the purpose of further resale. Investments in construction are recorded at cost within other assets in the statement of financial position. Finance lease – the Bank as lessee A finance lease is a lease that transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset. The Bank recognises finance leases as assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position at the date of commencement of the lease term at amounts equal to the fair value of the leased property, or at the present value of the minimum lease payments, if this amount is less than the fair value of the asset. The discount rate to be used in calculating the present value of the minimum lease payments is the interest rate implicit in the lease, if this is practicable to determine; if not, the Bank’s borrowing rate shall be used. Initial direct costs incurred are included as part of the asset. Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance charge is allocated to periods during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each reporting period. The costs identified as directly attributable to activities performed by the lessee under the finance lease contract, are included as part of the amount recognised as an asset under the lease. Operating lease – the Bank as lessee Leases of property under which the risks and rewards of ownership are effectively retained with the lessor are classified as operating leases. Lease payments under operating lease are recognised as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term and included into operating expenses in the statement of comprehensive income. Operating lease – the Bank as lessor The Bank presents assets subject to operating leases in the statement of financial position according to the nature of the asset. Lease income from operating leases is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the lease term as other operating income. The aggregate cost of incentives provided to lessees is recognised as a reduction of rental income over the lease term on a straight-line basis. Initial direct costs incurred specifically to earn revenues from an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised as an expense over the lease term on the same basis as the lease income. Share capital Ordinary shares and non-cumulative, non-redeemable preference shares are classified as share capital. The share capital contributed before 1 January 2003 was restated for the effects of inflation. The share capital contributed after the above date is stated at original cost. Non-monetary contributions to the share capital are recorded at fair value of contributed assets at the date the contributions are made. Share premium Share premium represents the excess of contributions over the nominal value of the shares issued. Dividends Dividends are recognised as a liability and deducted from shareholders’ equity at the end of the reporting period only if they are declared before or on the reporting date. Information on dividends which are declared after the reporting date is disclosed in the subsequent events note. Net profit of the reporting year reflected in the statutory financial statements is the basis for payment of dividends and other appropriations. 26 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) After approval of dividends by the General Shareholders’ Meeting they are recognised in the financial statements as distributed profits. Contingent assets and liabilities Contingent assets are not recognised in the statement of financial position but disclosed in the financial statements when an inflow of economic benefits is probable. Contingent liabilities are not recognised in the statement of financial position but disclosed in the financial statements unless the possibility of any outflow in settlement is remote. Credit related commitments The Bank enters into credit related commitments, including guarantees and commitments to extend credits. Guarantees represent irrevocable assurances of the Bank to make payments in the event that a customer cannot meet its obligations to third parties and carry the same credit risk as loans. Commitments to extend credit represent unused portions of authorisations to extend credit in the form of loans or guarantees. With respect to credit risk on commitments to extend credit, the Bank 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 since most commitments to extend credit are contingent upon customers maintaining specific credit standards. Credit related commitments are initially recognised at their fair value. Subsequently, they are analysed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. The best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation is the amount that the Bank would rationally pay to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period or to transfer it to a third party at that time. Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Bank has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. Taxation The income tax charge/recovery comprises current tax and deferred tax and is recorded in the statement of comprehensive income except if it is recorded directly in other comprehensive income because it relates to transactions that are also recorded directly in other comprehensive income. Income tax expense is recorded in the financial statements in accordance with the applicable legislation of the Russian Federation. Current tax is calculated on the basis of the taxable profit for the year, using the tax rates enacted during the reporting period. Current tax is the amount expected to be paid to or recovered from the taxation authorities in respect of taxable profits or losses for the current or prior periods. Tax amounts are based on estimates if financial statements are authorised prior to filing relevant tax returns. Deferred income tax is provided using the balance sheet liability method for tax loss carryforwards and temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. Deferred tax balances are measured at tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period which are expected to apply to the period when the temporary differences will reverse or the tax loss carryforwards will be utilised. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and deferred taxes refer to the same tax authority. Deferred tax assets for deductible temporary differences and tax loss carryforwards are recorded to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductions can be utilised. Judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that may be recognised in financial statements based on probable periods and amounts of future taxable profits and future tax planning strategies. Russia also has various other taxes, which are assessed on the Bank’s activities. These taxes are recorded within operating expenses in the statement of comprehensive income. 27 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) Income and expense recognition Interest income and expense are recorded in the statement of comprehensive income for all debt instruments on an accrual basis using the effective interest method. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset or a financial liability and of allocating the 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 instrument to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. When calculating the effective interest rate, the Bank estimates cash flows considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument, but does not consider future credit losses. The calculation includes all commissions and fees paid or received by the parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs, and all other premiums or discounts. Interest income includes coupons earned on fixed-income financial assets and accrued discount and premium on promissory notes and other discounted instruments. When loans become doubtful of collection, they are written down to their recoverable amounts and interest income is thereafter recognised based on the rate of interest that was used to discount the future cash flows for the purpose of measuring the recoverable amount. Fees, commissions and other income and expense items are recorded on an accrual basis after the service is provided. Loan origination fees for loans that are not yet provided, but are probable of being drawn down, are recognised within other assets and are subsequently taken into account in calculation of effective yield on the loan. Fees and commissions arising from negotiating a transaction for a third party, such as the acquisition of loans, shares and other securities or the purchase or sale of businesses, are recorded on completion of the transaction in the statement of comprehensive income. Investment portfolio and other advisory service fees are recognised based on the applicable service contracts. Employee benefits and social insurance contributions The Bank pays social insurance contributions on the territory of the Russian Federation. Insurance contributions are recorded on an accrual basis and comprise contributions to the Russian Federation state pension, social insurance, and obligatory medical insurance funds in respect of the Bank’s employees. The Bank does not have pension arrangements separate from the state pension system of the Russian Federation. Wages, salaries, contributions to the Russian Federation state pension and social insurance funds, paid annual leaves and paid sick leaves, bonuses and non-monetary benefits are accrued as the Bank’s employees render the related service. Foreign currency and precious metals Foreign currency transactions are initially translated into the functional currency at the CBR exchange rate in effect at the transaction date. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the CBR exchange rate ruling at the end of the reporting period. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from revaluation of transactions in foreign currency and precious metals are recorded in the statement of comprehensive income within gains less losses from revaluation of foreign currency and precious metals. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currency and carried at cost are restated at the CBR exchange rate in effect at the transaction date. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currency and carried at fair value are restated at the exchange rate in effect at the date the fair value is determined. Gold, silver and other precious metals are recorded at current bid prices set by the CBR. Changes in CBR bid prices are recorded as translation differences within gains less losses from revaluation of foreign currency and precious metals in the statement of comprehensive income. Precious metals are recorded within other assets. Gains and losses on purchase and sale of foreign currency and precious metals are determined as the difference between the selling price and the carrying amount at the date of the transaction. 28 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) 5.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss represent the fair value of foreign currency futures and precious metals and oil futures. Derivative financial instruments are normally traded on the OTC market by professional market participants on standard contractual terms and conditions. Contractual amounts of derivative financial instruments are not necessarily indicative of the amounts of future cash flows involved or the current fair value of the instruments and, therefore, do not reflect the Bank’s exposure to credit or price risks. The derivative financial instruments become favourable (assets) or unfavourable (liabilities) as a result of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates relative to these instruments. The aggregate contractual or notional amount of derivative financial instruments, the extent to which instruments are favourable or unfavourable and, thus, their aggregate fair values can fluctuate significantly from time to time.

Deferred tax asset arising from tax loss carryfowards is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the respective tax benefit can be utilised. Net deferred tax liability is the amount of income taxes payable in future periods in respect of taxable temporary differences. As at 31 December 2013, the total deferred tax liability of RUB 597 thousand (2012: RUB 2 969 thousand) arose from fair valuation of financial assets available for sale (Note 8). The deferred tax liability associated with fair valuation of the above financial assets reflected within comprehensive income is also recorded as movements in the Bank’s equity and is subsequently included in the statement of comprehensive income at the time of disposal of financial assets available for sale. As at 31 December 2013, the total deferred tax liability in the amount of RUB 56 480 thousand (2012: RUB 45 739 thousand) was calculated in respect of positive revaluation of buildings to fair value and recorded in revaluation reserve for premises and equipment in accordance with IAS 16 (Note 10). 24.

Risk Management The risk management function within the Bank is carried out in respect of financial risks (credit, market, currency, liquidity and interest rate), operational and legal risks. The primary objectives of the financial risk management function are to establish risk limits, and then ensure that exposure to risks stays within these limits. The assessment of exposure to risks also serves as a basis for optimal distribution of riskadjusted capital, transaction pricing and business performance assessment. The operational and legal risk management functions are intended to ensure proper functioning of internal policies and procedures to minimise operational and legal risks. Credit risk. The Bank takes on exposure to credit risk which is the risk that a counterparty will be unable to pay amounts in full when due. The Bank controls the credit risk it undertakes by placing limits on the amount of risk accepted in relation to one borrower, or group of related borrowers. Such risks are monitored by the Bank on a regular basis, the limits being subject to a monthly (in case the borrower is a credit institution) or quarterly (in case the borrower is a non-credit institution) review. Limits on the level of credit risk by product, borrowers and industry segments are approved by the Bank’s Credit Committee. The exposure to any one borrower including banks and broker companies is further restricted by sub-limits covering on- and off-balance sheet exposures. Actual exposures are monitored against limits daily. Exposure to credit risk is managed through regular analysis of the ability of borrowers and potential borrowers to meet interest and principal repayment obligations and by changing these lending limits where appropriate. Exposure to credit risk is also managed by obtaining property and securities collateral and corporate and personal guarantees. The Bank’s maximum exposure to credit risk is primarily reflected in the carrying amount of financial assets in the statement of financial position. The impact of possible netting of assets and liabilities to reduce potential credit exposure is not significant. For guarantees and commitments to extend credits, the maximum exposure to credit risk is equal to total liabilities, as described in Note 28. Credit risk for off-balance sheet financial instruments is defined as the possibility of sustaining a loss as a result of another party to a financial instrument failing to perform in accordance with the terms of the contract. The Bank uses the same credit policies for contingent liabilities as it does for on-balance sheet financial instruments through established transaction approvals, risk control limits and monitoring procedures. The Bank performs the loan maturity analysis and subsequent monitoring of overdue balances. Therefore, the management provides information on overdue maturities and other information on credit risk, as described in Notes 6, 7, 8 and 11. The Bank is exposed to early redemption risk as a result of lending at fixed or variable interest rates, including mortgage loans that give the borrower the right of early redemption. The financial result and the Bank’s equity for the current year and at the end of the reporting period would not greatly depend on the rate fluctuations in case of early redemption because such loans are carried at amortised cost whereas the amount to be early redeemed corresponds or nearly corresponds to the amortised cost of loans to customers. 56 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) Market risk. The Bank takes on exposure to market risk arising from open positions in interest rate, currency and equity instruments, all of which are exposed to general and specific market movements. The Credit Committee sets acceptable risk limits and monitors them on a daily basis. However, the use of this approach does not prevent losses beyond these limits in the event of more significant market movements. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return on the risk accepted. The Bank assesses its market risk exposure in compliance with the requirements of CBR Regulation No. 313-P of 14 November 2007 “On the Procedure of Market Risk Calculation by Credit Institutions” (as amended by CBR Instructions No. 2321-U of 3 November 2009 and No. 2524-U of 17 November 2010). The main instrument used by the Bank to control and manage market risk is the Value-at-Risk (VaR) methodology. VaR is an estimate of potential loss, with a given probability and time horizon, resulting from movements in market parameters. The VaR model is based on the following assumptions: Modelling using a 99% confidence level; Historic modelling based on the analysis of intraday changes in the parameter for the period not less than 250 trading days (1 calendar year); Modelling horizon - 1 day. Potential changes (fluctuations) in market prices are determined on the basis of market data for 2013. Although VaR is a valuable tool in measuring market risk exposures, it has a number of limitations, especially in less liquid markets: The use of historical data as a basis for determining future events may not encompass all possible scenarios (especially, exclusively non-standard scenarios which have a critical, extraordinary structure); The use of a 99% confidence level does not take into account losses that may occur beyond this level. There is a 1% probability that the loss could exceed the estimated VaR; The use of a holding period for a certain security related to financial assets available for sale does not take into account the sale of certain securities before the end of a holding period; As VaR is usually calculated on an end-of-day basis, it does not necessarily reflect exposures that may arise on positions opened during the trading day. The Bank does not solely rely on its VaR calculations in its market risk measurement as this methodology has certain limitations described above. The risk of limitations of the VaR methodology is mitigated by supplementing VaR limits with a limit on the structure of the securities portfolio by type of securities. 57 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) Geographical risk.

Depending on the revenue stream of the borrower, the appreciation of foreign currencies against the Russian Rouble may adversely affect the borrowers’ repayment ability and therefore increases the likelihood of future loan losses. The table below shows the change in the financial result and equity due to possible fluctuations of exchange rates used at the end of the reporting period, if all other conditions remain unchanged. A reasonably possible change by each currency is determined based on the analysis of historical data on maximal movements in foreign exchange rates for December 2013. The variance analysis of foreign exchange rates for 2013 has shown that as at 31 December 2013 a reasonably possible variance in the USD and EUR exchange rates may reach 2%.

A reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rate by currency is determined based on the analysis of maximal fluctuations in foreign exchange rates for December 2012. The analysis of foreign exchange rate fluctuations for the year 2012 showed that a reasonably possible fluctuation in the USD exchange rate as at 31 December 2012 could be 4%, and a reasonably possible fluctuation in exchange rate of EUR as at 31 December 2012 could be 3%.

Liquidity risk is defined as the risk when the maturity of assets and liabilities does not match. The Bank is exposed to risk via daily calls from customers on its available cash resources from customer accounts, maturing deposits, loan draw downs and guarantees. The Bank does not accumulate cash resources to meet calls on all liabilities mentioned above, as based on the existing practice, it is possible to forecast with a sufficient degree of certainty the required level of cash funds necessary to meet the above obligations. Liquidity risk is managed by the Deputy Chairman of the Bank’s Board. Quick liquidity is managed by First Deputy Chairman of the Board overseeing the Treasury. Current and long-term liquidity is managed by the working group including Acting Chairman of the Board, First Deputy Chairman of the Executive Board overseeing the Treasury, Deputy Chairman of the Executive Board overseeing the Finance and Economics Department and Chief Accountant. The Bank is keen on maintaining stable financing predominantly consisting of due to other banks, deposits of legal entities/deposits of individuals, debt securities, and also on investing funds in diversified liquid asset portfolios to be able to meet unexpected liquidity needs quickly and unhampered. To manage its liquidity, the Bank is required to analyse the level of liquid assets needed to settle the liabilities on their maturity by providing access to various sources of financing, drawing up plans to solve the problems with financing and exercising control over compliance of the liquidity ratios with the laws and regulations. The Bank calculates liquidity ratios on a daily basis in accordance with the requirements of the Bank of Russia. These ratios include: - Quick ratio (H2) calculated as a ratio of highly liquid assets and liabilities on demand. The minimum admissible value of Н2 is set at 15%. As at 31 December 2013, this ratio was 60.6% (2012: 82.5%) (unaudited data). - Current liquidity ratio (Н3) calculated as a ratio of liquid assets and liabilities maturing within 30 calendar days. The minimum admissible value of Н3 is set at 50%. As at 31 December 2013, this ratio was 81.3% (2012: 101.0%) (unaudited data). - Long-term liquidity ratio (Н4) calculated as a ratio of assets maturing in more than 1 year to equity and liabilities maturing in more than 1 year. The maximum admissible value of Н4 is set at 120%. As at 31 December 2013, this ratio was 43.5% (2012: 31.0%) (unaudited data). The Treasury of the Bank receives information about financial assets and liabilities. The Bank’s Treasury controls liquidity ratios on a daily basis and, if necessary, raises funds from financial markets, mainly interbank loans, thereby managing quick and current liquidity. The Bank’s management monitors the daily liquidity position and also performs stress testing under a variety of scenarios covering both normal and more severe market conditions. The table below shows the liabilities as at 31 December 2013 by their remaining contractual maturity. The amounts in the table represent contractual undiscounted cash flows. These undiscounted cash flows differ from the amounts recorded in the statement of financial position, which are based on discounted cash flows. 62 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) In those cases when the amount to be paid is not fixed, the amount in the table is determined on the basis of conditions prevailing at the end of the reporting period.

In the opinion of the Bank’s management, the matching and/or controlled mismatching of the maturities and interest rates of assets and liabilities is fundamental for successful management of the Bank. It is unusual for the banks ever to be completely matched since business transacted is often of an uncertain term 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 Bank and its exposure to changes in interest and exchange rates. The management believes that in spite of a substantial portion of customer accounts being on demand, diversification of these deposits by number and type of depositors, and the past experience of the Bank would indicate that these customer accounts provide a long-term and stable source of funding for the Bank. Liquidity requirements in respect of guarantees are considerably lower than the amount of the related commitment because the Bank does not generally expect a third party to draw funds under the agreement. The total outstanding contractual amount of commitments to extend credits does not necessarily represent future cash requirements, since many of these commitments will expire or terminate without being funded. 65 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) Interest rate risk. The Bank takes on exposure to the effects of fluctuations in the prevailing levels of market interest rates on its financial position and cash flows. Interest margins may increase as a result of such changes but may decrease or create losses in the event that unexpected movements arise. The Bank is exposed to interest rate risk, principally as a result of lending at fixed interest rates, in amounts and for periods, which differ from those of term borrowings at fixed interest rates. In practice, interest rates are generally fixed on a short-term basis. Also, interest rates fixed contractually on both assets and liabilities, are usually renegotiated to reflect current market conditions. The Credit Committee sets limits on the level of mismatch of interest rate re-pricing that may be undertaken, which is monitored regularly. In the absence of any available hedging instruments, the Bank normally seeks to match its interest rate positions.

Capital Management The Bank’s capital management has the following objectives: to observe the capital requirements established by the CBR, namely the requirements of the deposit insurance system; to maintain the Bank’s operations as a going concern and to maintain its capital base at the level necessary to ensure a 10% capital adequacy ratio in accordance with the requirements set by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation. The control over compliance with the capital adequacy ratio set by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation is exercised daily on the basis of the estimated and actual data as well as on the basis of monthly reports that contain corresponding calculations controlled by the Chairman of the Board and Chief Accountant of the Bank. The Bank is keen on maintaining the necessary capital level in order to preserve the confidence of creditors, investors and the market as a whole as well as to develop the future activity of the Bank. In accordance with the current capital requirements set by the CBR, the banks should maintain the ratio of capital to risk weighted assets (capital adequacy ratio) above the prescribed minimum level. The table below shows the regulatory capital structure based on the Bank’s reports prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Russian legislation: Core capital Secondary capital Total regulatory capital 2013 (unaudited data) 2012 (unaudited data) 3 268 565 2 511 396 5 779 961 2 998 368 2 511 285 5 509 653 During 2013 and 2012 the Bank complied with all capital requirements set by the CBR. As at 31 December 2013, the Bank’s capital adequacy ratio calculated based on capital requirements established by the CBR was 13.1% (2012:16.1%) (unaudited data). The minimum admissible value is set by the CBR at 10.0% 28. Contingent Liabilities Legal issues. In the ordinary course of business, the Bank is subject to legal actions and complaints. Management believes that the ultimate liability, if any, arising from such actions or complaints will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or the results of future operations of the Bank. Tax legislation. Russian tax legislation is subject to varying interpretations and changes which can occur frequently. Management’s interpretation of such legislation as applied to the transactions and activity of the Bank may be challenged by the relevant regional or federal authorities. Practice shows that the tax authorities may be taking a more assertive position in their interpretation of the legislation and assessments and it is possible that transactions and accounting methods that have not been challenged in the past may be challenged. As a result, significant additional taxes, penalties and interest may be assessed. Fiscal periods remain open to review by the tax authorities in respect of taxes for three calendar years preceding the year of the review. Under certain circumstances reviews may cover longer periods. 69 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) As at 31 December 2013, the Bank’s management believes that its interpretation of the relevant legislation is appropriate and the Bank’s tax, currency and customs positions will be sustained by controlling bodies. Operating lease commitments. Where the Bank is the lessee, the future minimum lease payments under non-cancellable operating leases are as follows: Less than 1 year From 1 to 5 years Total operating lease commitments 2013 2012 30 033 61 031 91 064 28 040 35 080 63 120 Lease expenses recognised by the Bank amounted to RUB 76 469 thousand (2012: RUB 63 913 thousand). Credit related commitments. The main objective of these instruments is to provide funds to customers when necessary. The total outstanding contractual amount of guarantees and undrawn credit lines does not necessarily represent future cash requirements, as these financial instruments may expire or terminate without being funded. However, as there is a potential risk, a provision for credit related commitments in respect of issued guarantees is made in the statement of financial position within other liabilities depending on customer financial position. With respect to credit risk on undrawn credit lines, the Bank is less exposed to the risk of loss since in the case of impairment of loans issued the Bank will not pay the remaining amounts. Therefore, a provision for these credit related commitments is equal to zero. Outstanding credit related commitments of the Bank are as follows: Guarantees issued Undrawn credit lines Less: provision for impairment of credit related commitments Total credit related commitments 2013 2012 9 391 406 2 080 010 (320 268) 11 151 148 7 939 754 705 295 (291 276) 8 353 773 2013 2012 291 276 28 992 97 092 194 184 320 268 291 276 Movements in the provision for credit related commitments are as follows: Note Provision for credit related commitments as at 1 January Provision for credit related commitments during the period Provision for credit related commitments as at 31 December 70 16 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) 29. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The fair value is defined as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between knowledgeable willing parties on arm’s length conditions, other than in a forced sale or liquidation. Quoted financial instruments in active markets provide the best evidence of fair value. As no readily available market exists for major part of the Bank’s financial instruments, their fair value is based on current economic conditions and the specific risks attributable to the instrument. The estimates presented below are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Bank could realise in a market exchange from the sale of its full holdings of a particular instrument. Below is the estimated fair value of the Bank’s financial instruments as at 31 December 2013 and 31 December 2012: 2013 Carrying value Financial assets Cash and cash equivalents Due from other banks Loans to customers Financial assets available for sale Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial liabilities Due to other banks Customer accounts Debt securities issued Other borrowed funds 7 1 17 9 800 749 524 428 891 827 958 311 Fair value 7 1 17 9 800 749 524 428 891 827 958 311 2012 Carrying value 13 4 13 9 923 758 697 618 881 776 521 832 Fair value 13 4 13 9 923 758 697 618 875 250 521 832 3 071 3 071 29 548 29 548 4 864 941 31 580 327 98 474 2 375 000 4 864 941 31 580 327 98 474 2 375 000 2 922 627 35 920 703 24 2 375 000 2 922 627 35 920 703 24 2 375 000 The Bank uses the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of the following financial instruments: Financial instruments carried at fair value. Cash and cash equivalents, financial assets available for sale and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are carried in the statement of financial position at their fair value. Due from other banks. The fair value of floating rate instruments is their carrying amount. The estimated fair value of fixed interest-bearing placements is based on discounted cash flows using prevailing money market interest rates for instruments with similar credit risk and maturity. The Bank’s management believes that the fair values of due from other banks as at 31 December 2013 and 31 December 2012 do not materially differ from respective carrying amounts. This is primarily due to the short-term nature of the investments. Loans to customers. Loans to customers are reported net of impairment provisions. The estimated fair value of loans to customers represents the discounted amount of estimated future cash flows expected to be received. To determine fair value, expected cash flows are discounted at current market rates. Due to other banks. The fair value of due to other banks maturing in less than 1 month approximates the carrying amount because of their relatively short-term maturity. The fair value of due to other banks maturing in more than 1 month is the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the respective year-end market rates. The Bank believes that fair values of due to other banks as at 31 December 2013 and 31 December 2012 do not materially differ from respective carrying amounts. This is due to the relatively short-term maturity of these liabilities. Customer accounts. The estimated fair value of liabilities with no stated maturity is based on the amount payable at the creditor’s request. The estimated fair value of fixed interest bearing placements and other borrowings without a quoted market price is based on discounted cash flows using interest rates for debt instruments with similar maturity. 71 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) Debt securities issued. The fair value of fixed interest bearing financial liabilities carried at amortised cost is determined by comparing the market interest rates at initial recognition of these instruments with current market rates on similar financial instruments. The estimated fair value of fixed interest bearing debt securities issued is based on discounted cash flows using money market interest rates for debt instruments with similar credit risk and maturity. Other borrowed funds. The fair value of other fixed interest bearing borrowed funds without market quotations is based on discounted cash flows using interest rates for debt instruments with similar maturity. The fair value of floating rate borrowed funds is their carrying amount. Below is the fair value hierarchy of financial assets as at 31 December 2013. Level 1 includes financial assets which are traded in an active market, whose fair values are measured based on market quotations. Level 3 includes financial assets whose fair value is determined based on judgment or fair value techniques for which any significant input is not based on observable market data. Level 1 Financial assets available for sale Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss 9 842 802 3 071 Below is the fair value hierarchy of financial assets as at 31 December 2012.

Reconciliation of Classes of Financial Instruments with Measurement Categories In accordance with IAS 39 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” the Bank classifies its financial assets in the following categories: 1) financial assets at fair value through profit or loss; 2) loans and receivables; 3) financial assets available for sale. At the same time, in accordance with IFRS 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures” the Bank discloses different categories of its financial instruments. 72 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) The table below shows reconciliation of classes of financial assets with the above categories as at 31 December 2013: Assets Cash and cash equivalents Due from other banks - Deposits with CBR - Loans to other banks - Current/demand accounts with banks - Guarantee fund with payment systems Loans to customers - Corporate loans - Loans to small and medium business - Consumer loans to individuals - Reverse repo agreements - Housing loans to individuals - Mortgage loans to individuals - Car loans to individuals Financial assets available for sale - Government debt securities - Corporate debt securities - Corporate equity securities Financial assets classified as other assets Total financial assets Non-financial assets Total assets Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Loans and receivables Financial assets available for sale Total Total 7 800 749 - - 7 800 749 - 1 000 123 500 003 21 931 2 371 - 1 000 123 500 003 21 931 2 371 - 10 269 911 6 350 451 572 392 294 785 241 717 162 177 394 - 10 269 911 6 350 451 572 392 294 785 241 717 162 177 394 - - 2 328 430 7 488 470 141 411 2 328 430 7 488 470 141 411 3 071 7 803 820 3 923 219 23 339 474 9 958 311 3 926 290 41 101 605 1 642 150 42 743 755 - 73 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) The table below shows reconciliation of classes of financial assets with the above categories as at 31 December 2012: Assets Cash and cash equivalents Due from other banks - Deposits with CBR - Loans to other banks - Current/demand accounts with banks - Reverse repo agreements - Promissory notes of other banks Loans to customers - Corporate loans - Loans to small and medium business - Consumer loans to individuals - Reverse repo agreements - Housing loans to individuals - Mortgage loans to individuals - Loans to state unitary enterprises Financial assets available for sale - Government debt securities - Corporate debt securities - Corporate equity securities Financial assets classified as other assets Total financial assets Non-financial assets Total assets Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Loans and receivables Financial assets available for sale Total 13 923 758 - - 13 923 758 - 2 500 922 875 195 189 875 1 097 749 33 877 - 2 500 922 875 195 189 875 1 097 749 33 877 - 7 244 515 3 955 240 214 568 1 309 081 318 277 112 248 727 847 - 7 244 515 3 955 240 214 568 1 309 081 318 277 112 248 727 847 - - 3 742 707 5 604 568 174 557 3 742 707 5 604 568 174 557 29 548 13 953 306 18 579 394 9 521 832 29 548 42 054 532 2 945 027 44 999 559 All financial liabilities of the Bank are carried at amortised cost. 31. Related Party Transactions For the purposes of these financial statements, parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability to control or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial or operational decisions as defined by IAS 24 “Related Party Disclosures”. In considering each possible related party relationship, attention is directed to the economic substance of the relationship, not merely the legal form. In the normal course of business the Bank enters into transactions with its major shareholders, directors and other related parties. These transactions include settlements, issuance of loans, deposit taking, guarantees, trade finance and foreign currency transactions. According to the Bank’s policy the terms of related party transactions are equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s length transactions. 74 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) The outstanding balances at the year end and asset transactions with related parties for 2013 and 2012 are as follows: Shareholders 2013 Loans to customers Loans to customers as at 1 January (gross) Loans to customers issued during the year Loans to customers repaid during the year Loans to customers as at 31 December (gross) Provision for impairment of loans to customers Provision for impairment of loans to customers as at 1 January (Recovery of provision)/provision for impairment of loans to customers during the year Provision for impairment of loans to customers as at 31 December Loans to customers as at 1 January (less provision for impairment) Loans to customers as at 31 December (less provision for impairment) Directors and key management personnel 2013 2012 Other related parties 2013 2012 - 32 500 10 287 1 446 830 1 471 936 450 1 425 47 800 989 830 2 568 978 - (10 467) (25 587) (1 453 081) (2 594 084) 450 23 458 32 500 983 579 1 446 830 - 325 103 48 332 62 225 5 (92) 222 2 783 (13 893) 5 233 325 51 115 48 332 - 32 175 10 184 1 398 498 1 409 711 445 23 225 32 175 932 464 1 398 498 75 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) The outstanding balances at the year end and liability transactions with related parties for 2013 and 2012 are as follows: Customer accounts Customer accounts as at 1 January Customer accounts received during the year Customer accounts repaid during the year Customer accounts as at 31 December Directors and key management personnel 2013 2012 2013 Shareholders 2012 573 667 426 870 1 206 803 3 497 108 3 964 193 4 615 785 (3 562 019) 508 756 2013 Subsidiary 2012 2013 Associate 2012 858 802 5 142 8 300 337 627 392 212 3 264 548 - 72 152 2 156 764 2 392 327 (3 817 396) (4 563 994) (2 916 547) (5 142) (75 310) (2 110 322) 5 142 384 069 573 667 1 258 594 1 206 803 76 - Other related parties 2013 2012 2 177 758 429 080 117 578 591 209 163 901 (2 446 912) (119 527 194) (207 415 223) 337 627 229 155 2 177 758 NS Bank Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2013 (in thousands of Russian Roubles) Other related parties 2013 2012 Other borrowed funds Other borrowed funds as at 1 January Exclusion of a counterparty from the list of related parties Interest accrued during the year Interest paid during the year Other borrowed funds as at 31 December 585 000 (585 000) 95 261 (95 261) - 1 065 000 (480 000) 56 236 (56 236) 585 000 Below are guarantees and sureties issued by the Bank to related parties as at 31 December 2012: Shareholders Other related parties Total 56 310 67 980 124 290 Guarantees and sureties issued by the Bank As at 31 December 2013, the Bank has no guarantees and sureties issued to related parties.
