Letter to ShareholdersIn keeping with our commitment as Taiwan’s largest financial
holding company to continually improving our business, Cathay Financial Holdings accumulated US$251.08 billion in total assets as of the end of 2016, demonstrating the trust our customers place in us and their support of Cathay Financial Holdings' brand value. While our assets continued to grow, it has been a challenge to maintain a steady business performance. However, thanks to the concerted efforts of all of our employees, Cathay Financial Holdings still delivered an exceptional performance.
Looking back at 2016, the dramatic changes in the world's political and economic environment, the divergence in the direction of monetary policies implemented by central banks across the world, and the uncertainties that have arisen in the process of global economic recovery have all posed immense challenges to business operations in the financial industry. Maintaining our steady management strategy, we achieved outstanding business results in 2016 with consolidated after-tax profit of US$1.48 billion and earnings per share of NT$3.79. Our subsidiaries, Cathay Life Insurance and Cathay United Bank, were the primary contributors.
We continue to expand our operations in overseas markets in China and Southeast Asia and we seek to integrate our overseas resources into a complete regional operating platform. At the same time, we are also developing new financial technologies and new business models in response to trends in Fintech. Cathay Financial Holdings will continue to persist in its efforts to provide customers with better financial services, increase profits, optimize risk management practices, and drive towards corporate sustainability.
Our Subsidiaries Once Again Delivered Excellent Performance in 2016
Cathay Life Insurance generated consolidated after-tax profit of US$933 million for the year. In addition to continuous improvements in its investment performance, Cathay Life Insurance also maintained its position as the market leader. First-year premium income was US$6.14 billion. Total premium income was US$20.68 billion, which is the highest in the industry. First-year premium equivalent, an even better indicator of business value, was US$4.17 billion, and which also allowed Cathay Life Insurance to be the industry leader.
Cathay United Bank recorded consolidated after-tax profit of US$540 million for the year, while the market positions of both corporate banking and retail banking continued to increase. Cathay United Bank's outstanding loans exceeded US$44.39 billion while still maintaining strong asset quality levels. With respect to fee income, Cathay United Bank’s credit card business had leading performance across all relevant metrics and the wealth management business met its goal of enhancing customer satisfaction and exhibited unparalleled performance among all domestic financial institutions.
Concerning the performance of our other subsidiaries, Cathay Century Insurance was ranked second in the domestic market in terms of premium income. Cathay Securities Investment Trust recorded US$14.54 billion in assets under management, making it the largest securities investment trust company in Taiwan. Cathay Securities was ranked first in the market in terms of sub-brokerage service and all of its business operations showed steady growth.
Continuous Development of Overseas Markets
Throughout 2016, we continued to extend our global presence. In China, the opening of Cathay United Bank’s Shenzhen Branch marked our expansion into the Pearl River Delta region. Our existing banking operations in the Northern, Central, and Southern regions of China have also allowed us to effectively satisfy the needs of our customers. Our insurance business in China has also shown continued growth. Cathay Lujiazui Life Insurance currently operates 11 offices (headquarters and branch offices) and 38 sales and service agencies across China, while Cathay Century Insurance has established a total of 26 branch locations. In 2016, Cathay Century Insurance completed a capital injection by Ant Financial Services Group, bringing them in as a strategic investor to further develop our property and casualty insurance business in China.
With respect to our expansion in Southeast Asia, Cathay United Bank has already established overseas offices in nine ASEAN member states, including Vietnam, Cambodia, Singapore, Malaysia, Laos, the Philippines, Thailand, Myanmar, and Indonesia, making Cathay United Bank the Taiwan banking institution with the highest number of offices in the ASEAN market. At the same time, Cathay Life Insurance also made equity investments in banks in the Philippines and Indonesia to further strengthen our regional banking business portfolio. The second stage of our equity investment in Indonesia’s Bank Mayapada was completed in 2016, and our total shareholding ratio is now 40%. We will continue to strengthen our partnerships, deepen our penetration and capture opportunities as we further develop our business in overseas markets. In anticipation of potential growth in Southeast Asia's insurance markets, Cathay Life Insurance and Cathay Century Insurance have established branch offices in major cities in Vietnam, the business operations of which are steadily growing. As the formation of our platform of overseas operations approaches completion, Cathay Financial Holdings expects to be able to take full advantage of the significant growth opportunities in the Asia-Pacific region.
Developing Asset Management as a Long-Term Strategic Pillar
We have made further progress in the development of our asset management business. Following our acquisition of 100% of Conning Holdings Corp., we have continued to support the development of Conning’s business operations and the expansion of its market presence. By capitalizing on Conning's presence in the United States and Europe, as well as leveraging Cathay Financial Holdings’ advantages in Greater China, we hope to build a global asset management platform.
Fulfillment of Corporate Social Responsibility, Attainment of Global and Domestic Recognition
With regard to corporate social responsibility, Cathay Financial Holdings has been selected as a "DJSI Emerging Markets" constituent stock of the Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI), a respected international indicator of corporate sustainability management, for the second consecutive year. Our selection is tesitimony to our continuous efforts in practicing corporate sustainability and demonstrates

that we have begun to receive international recognition. Our performance in information disclosure, corporate governance, and corporate sustainability have all been highly rated and commended by well-recognized institutions both locally and internationally. As the first financial institution in Taiwan to have adopted the Equator Principles in 2015, Cathay United Bank was again at the forefront of the financial industry in 2016 with the completion of Taiwan's first Equator Principles compliant offshore wind power financing project implemented in accordance with international standards. Through this project, Cathay United Bank contributed further to sustainable development by taking concrete action towards the realization of corporate social responsibility in the financial industry.
Cathay Financial Holdings attaches great importance to sustainability, and we are fully committed to addressing issues related to the environment, society, and governance (ESG) by incorporating ESG into our management and investment decisions. Even though Taiwan is as yet unable to sign the Principles for Sustainable Insurance (PSI) and the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI), because Taiwan is not a member of the United Nations, we still remain committed to the active implementation of these principles and values. We strongly believe that the wellbeing of the financial industry is predicated upon a sustainable society and environment. Consistent with this ideal, we seek to provide a comprehensive range of financial products and services that create lasting value for the company, industry, and society.
Looking forward to 2017, the world remains highly susceptible to political and economic uncertainties. As the global economy rebounds, we will continue to closely monitor and manage potential risks, seek business synergies across our businesses, optimize our organizational and operating structures, strengthen our core product and service capabilities, and strive to provide diverse,

Gradually expand regional operations and achieve the vision of being a leading financial institution in the Asia-Pacific region:
Consistent with our vision of being a leading financial institution
in the Asia-Pacific region, we continue to evaluate overseas strategic
investment opportunities. We place equal emphasis on organic
growth and acquisitions to expand our overseas operations and
create a local market presence and a platform for cross-border
finance.
Regarding our operations in China, Cathay United Bank not
only opened its Shenzhen branch in 2016, but we also continue
to apply for more branch and sub branch locations. We will also
simultaneously consolidate the efforts of the entire financial group
and venture partners to achieve further expansion in the insurance
and asset management markets in China.
In terms of our operations in other Asian markets, we currently
have established overseas offices in nine out of ten ASEAN member
states, further completing our expansion in overseas markets. In the
future, we will actively exploit local corporate and retail financial
markets, and expand our business operations. We will build our asset
management business based on the operations of Conning Holdings
Corp. and strengthen its platform in the U.S., Europe, and Asia.
During the past year, Cathay Financial Holdings has faced many political and economic changes, including the U.S. presidential election, interest rate hikes, Brexit, and a slowing economy in China. Through it all, however, Cathay Financial Holdings has remained committed to maximizing value for its shareholders, customers and employees through sustainable, steady and proper management and by achieving profitability that is above industry averages. Going forward, we will prudently respond to global political and economic changes and be flexible in our strategies to develop transformational innovation and accelerate our business expansion. Our 2017 business plan is outlined below:
Continue to optimize our organizational and business structures to provide high-quality financial services
We will continue to optimize our organizational structure based on our core values of "Integrity, Accountability and Innovation" and seek operational synergies to achieve sustainable growth.
Our subsidiaries will constantly strengthen their core products and service capabilities, reinforce the competitive advantage of our existing businesses, and increase our interaction with customers through comprehensive technology-driven channels with excellent customer user experiences. Our subsidiaries will also continue focusing on value-added products and services, promoting sales channel transformation initiatives to strengthen sales capability, and providing diverse, convenient, and secure financial services, thereby extending our market presence in Taiwan.
Furthermore, our subsidiaries have endeavored to improve their business infrastructure and optimize internal control and legal systems to meet stringent regulatory requirements and seek corporate sustainability.

Cathay Life Insurance Co., Ltd.O ver view of Subsidiar ies
President Ming-Ho Hsiung
Looking back on 2016, the life insurance market still faced challenges amid a weak global economic recovery, the continuous implementation of quantitative easing policies in Europe and Japan, the announcement of an interest increase by the United States at the end of the year, and the occurrence of a black swan event. However, thanks to the concerted efforts of all employees, we delivered an outstanding performance in all respects. We reported first-year premium equivalent of US$4.17 billion in 2016, representing market share of 23.9%. Our total premium income for the year was US$20.68 billion, which represented market share of 21.4%. Both results positioned us as number one in the market. We also reported a profit of US$930 million for the year, once again turning in an exceptional performance.
Cathay Life Insurance has achieved international recognition for its business performance. Once again, we were the only financial institution in Taiwan that was included in the list of Fortune Magazine’s Global 500 in 2016. For the third year in a row, Cathay Life Insurance was chosen as the "Most Admired Company in Taiwan" in the insurance category by Commonwealth Magazine. Moreover, we were also honored for the third consecutive year in the AsianInvestor Institutional Excellence Awards conducted by AsianInvestor and were the only institution in Taiwan to achieve this level of international acclaim. These honors represent recognition of our efforts as well as higher expectations for the future. As the leader in the Taiwan insurance market, and with the hope of establishing ourselves as a leader in the Asian financial market, we continue to implement our Customer-Hack Program and Corporate Sustainability (CS) efforts, both of which are centered on our customers.
In response to rapidly changing market conditions, corporations must promote programs like our Customer-Hack Program with increased agility and using big data analytics and mobile technologies to address the different insurance needs of different customer segments. Combined with the strengths of digital and
Message from the President
physical channels, the program offers products and services that exceed expectations. In combination with net promoter scores (NPS) and immediate customer feedback, the program also provides insight into customer needs and expectations, thereby facilitating concrete implementation of a customer-centric business philosophy.
Cathay Life Insurance is committed to the goal of corporate sustainability and to integrating a customer-oriented approach and the principles of reciprocity. Through the concerted efforts of our employees, we have established ourselves as Asia's first life insurance company that complies with the Principles for Sustainable Insurance (PSI). By investing in the green energy industry, we seek to promote environmental protection activities. By continuing to care for economically disadvantaged students and second- generation immigrants, as well as promoting elder care products and services, we seek to promote positive energy for a prosperous society. Finally, by ensuring solid risk management practices, and actively promoting anti-fraud policies, educational training, legal compliance, and information disclosure, we seek to strengthen corporate governance.
Looking forward to 2017, we will continue to uphold our core values of "Integrity, Accountability and Innovation" and adopt “Innovative Management and Outstanding Service” as our business focus to create a social responsible company that meets the needs of its customers, cares for the welfare of its employees, and generates profits for its shareholders. Recognizing our role as a corporate citizen, we continue to promote and improve the sustainability of Taiwan’s competitiveness and of Cathay Life Insurance for everyone in the world to see.

2016 was a year filled with surprises. Regardless, the market was still able to recover quickly from chaos and maintain stable growth, despite the dramatic changes in the stock market caused by the recurrence of black swan events, the trading curb of Chinese A-shares at the beginning of the year, the passing of Brexit through a public vote in the middle of the year, and the presidential election of Donald Trump at the end of the year. Under the leadership of Donald Trump, U.S. stocks projected stable growth, and the Dow Jones Industrial Index continued to reach a record-high of 20,000 points, up 13.4%. The U.K. and emerging markets increased by 14.4% and 8.6%, respectively, while market growth in Japan and South Korea remained at levels that were approximately the same as the previous year. Weak performance was registered by Chinese A-shares. Given the rise in global interest rates under the Federal Reserve System in the monetary market, the U.S. Dollar strengthened, while the RMB, which was included as a part of the SDR in October, continued to decline. Commodity markets were focused on oil, with the oil price rebounding gradually in 2016. In November 2016, OPEC agreed to its first oil production cut in eight years. Taiwan shares projected a closing index of 9,254, representing a 915 point, or 11%, increase from the previous year. Taiwan shares performed favorably in the global market, but the average daily trading volume reached only US$3.065 billion, the lowest registered in the past three years.
In 2016, the average daily trading volume of Taiwan shares in the primary market and the underwriting business in the secondary market exhibited the worst performance in recent years. Our full-year pretax net profit was US$10.06 million, profit after tax was US$7.963 million, and EPS was NT$0.48. The market share of our brokerage business achieved a new high for the eighth straight year and rose to 1.89% for the whole year, a substantial increase of 0.21% compared with the previous year, ranking us No. 1 in terms of growth in the industry. In our underwriting business, we underwrote 10 IPO and SPO transactions, ranking us No. 5 in the market. The offshore securities brokerage business showed significant growth for a fourth consecutive year. The annual trading volume of our sub-brokerage business reached US$9.166 billion, up 70% from 2015, ranking us No. 2 in the industry. For our warrant issuing business, we were rated as a Class A warrant issuer for 10 quarters in a row and ranked in the top ten in the number of warrants issued and outstanding. Digital services has been the focus of our development in recent years. The Stock Lottery App developed by us has accumulated over 120,000 downloads, providing online solutions to investment problems that

Chairman Shih-Ting Chu
typically plague our customers. In 2016, we received a wide range of international awards, including the Best Local Securities Broker, the Best Business Service, the Best Trading Service, and the Best Independent Research Brokerage Team. We were also awarded the National Talent Development Award given by the Workforce Development Agency of the Ministry of Labor, and the Fastest Growing Financial Institution given by CommonWealth Magazine.
Looking forward to 2017, the global economy is expected to exhibit an L-shaped recovery, although there remain uncertainties and challenges. In the first half of 2017, the US stock market is expected to continue to fluctuate, as the U.S. Federal Reserve increases interest rates. The European QE will be extended until the end of the year. Depreciation of the RMB is expected to stagnate, which will be beneficial to exporting activities. Taiwan will continue to exhibit an L-shaped recovery, growing by approximately 1.8%, although it remains at a low point. The Taiwan government will successively implement policies that can stimulate Taiwan stocks, such as by reducing the securities transactions tax from 3‰ to 1.5‰, inspecting the tax levying system for stock dividends, promoting monthly saving plans, introducing ETF measures to reinvigorate the capital market, and introducing the Regulatory Sandbox as a means of promoting industry transformation.
To face the challenges presented to us in 2017, Cathay Securities will adopt innovative strategies to stimulate the growth and transformation of our business activities. Our brokerage business combines a digital cross-selling strategy to attract customers. Meanwhile, Cathay Securities seeks to increase its income by introducing new business services such as stock lending for any purpose and monthly saving plans. Our underwriting business complies with the government's industrial policy and assists new industries and overseas corporations to enter Taiwan's capital market. Our financial trading business is involved with optimizing strategic transactions and issuing warrants. The international securities brokerage business connects the Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Chinese markets and allows for integrated securities services that attract institutional and high net worth customers, as well as proprietary traders. In 2017, the development of innovative strategies for various business activities is aimed at continuously creating mutually beneficial outcomes for our customers, employees, and shareholders.

The year 2016 was filled with surprises and changes. The recurrence of black swan events in the financial markets, including Brexit, interest rate increases by the U.S. Federal Reserve, and the election of Donald Trump, have had a meaningful impact on the market. Despite these events, Cathay SITE turned in an outstanding performance. While the overall assets under management of the investment trust industry declined by 3.64%, the total assets under management of Cathay SITE was US$14.54 billion, remaining the highest in the domestic industry. In particular, we had total mutual fund assets under management of US$4.08 billion, increasing our ranking to No. 2 in the investment trust industry.
Because of the increasing fluctuations in the global market, where price changes are difficult to predict, investors must not only choose the right stocks, but they must also correctly account for short-term volatility and learn to use effective hedging strategies in an uncertain market. In the rapidly changing financial market, Cathay SITE issued 10 funds in 2016, nine of which were exchange traded funds (ETFs) that provide long or short directional trading, and that track indexes in the four major investment markets: Japan, China, the United States, and Taiwan. These funds serve as flexible long-short investment options that are suitable for a rapidly changing market. Cathay SITE anticipated the changes in the investment market and was able to launch ETF products that meet investor needs in a timely manner. Supported by our investors, these products improved our fund operations rather than negatively affecting them.

Message from the Chairman
Chairman Jeff Chang
2017 is perhaps a year that will be filled with positive news, such as a global economic recovery, interest rate increases by the United States, low oil prices, and a stable Chinese economy following structural adjustments. We can therefore optimistically prepare for the arrival of an economic recovery. However, asset management is a globally competitive industry. Regardless of what is ahead of us, good or bad, we will continue to maintain our competitive attitude, uphold the core values of Cathay Financial Holdings - "Integrity, Accountability and Innovation," while servicing our investors, and endeavoring to deliver outstanding performance by providing diverse products that meet the needs of investors.
In the future, Cathay SITE will strive toward its goal of becoming a global asset management company by continuing to improve its product line and develop innovative financial products to secure its existing equity/bond and active/passive products, strengthen operating performance, and fulfill customer needs through flexible and diverse services. Furthermore, we will continue to expand our organization, extend our global presence, and maximize benefits for the Cathay Group and our shareholders. We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude for the longstanding support and assistance of our customers. We value the trust each of our customers bestows on us. In return, we will make every effort to continuously improve our performance and corporate value, pursue excellence, improve our services, and continue advancing forward at a steady pace.

Company Profile
Cathay Securities Investment Trust ("CSIT") was established in February 2000 and is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cathay Financial Holdings. We have paid-in capital of US$46 million, 265 employees and a business network composed of our Taipei Head Office and Hsinchu, Taichung and Kaohsiung Branches. We also entered into a joint venture, CDBS Cathay Asset Management, in China with China Development Bank Securities, a subsidiary of China Development Bank. As of the end of 2016, total assets under management of Cathay SITE was US$14.54 billion, the highest in the domestic SITE industry. In light of the growth of the ETF market and consistent with our effort to provide products that meet the requirements of both long and short trading operations, since 2015 Cathay SITE has launched a series of ETF products and had issued 10 ETFs as of the end of 2016. We track the index performance of the Japanese, Chinese, U.S., and Taiwan markets, and also provide ETF options, including traditional, leveraged, and inverse ETFs. In addition to long-term investments, different types of strategic trading can be performed in response to short-term changes in the financial market. Cathay SITE’s ETF products have been popularized among investors since they were launched, and this has contributed to the increased comprehensiveness of Cathay SITE’s product lines and assets under management in 2016.
We have a team of 82 research professionals, including portfolio managers, with an average of 13 years of investment research-related experience. We have won more than 40 domestic and foreign fund awards since 2005.
Cathay SITE has always held onto the business philosophy of "striving toward positive development and solid foundation" adopting the most prudent, responsible attitude to render excellent services with utmost sincerity. In the future, we will continue to remain committed to robust management to serve our investors.

To Cathay Financial Holding Co., Ltd.
Independent Auditors’ ReportEnglish Translation of a Report Originally Issued in Chinese
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Cathay Financial Holding Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries as of 31 December 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years ended 31 December 2016 and 2015, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including the summary of significant accounting policies (together “the consolidated financial statements”).
In our opinion, based on our audits, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries as of 31 December 2016 and 2015, and their consolidated financial performance and cash flows for the years ended 31 December 2016 and 2015, in conformity with the requirements of the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Financial Holding Companies”, “Regulation Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and “International Financial Reporting Standards”, “International Accounting Standards”, “Interpretations developed by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee” as endorsed by Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the “Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statement by Certified Public Accountants” and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of Cathay Financial Holding Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries in accordance with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China (the “Norm”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Norm. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of 2016 consolidated financial statements. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Valuation of financial instruments - financial instrument investments for which no active market exists
Where the fair value of financial instrument investments for which no active market exists cannot be derived from an active market or a quoted price, it is determined using a valuation technique. The Company and its subsidiaries partially use internal model valuation for fair value, and the assumptions used in the valuation will impact the fair value of the reported financial instruments. Thus we conclude that the valuation of financial instruments- debt instrument investments for which no active market exists is a key audit matter of our audit.
Our audit procedures include but not limited to assessing and testing the effectiveness of internal controls related to financial instruments valuation, including how management decides and approves the valuation model and its assumptions, the controls related to the valuation model and change of assumptions, and how management reviews the valuation. We use internal valuation experts on a sampling basis to assist in reviewing the valuation techniques adopted by the Company and its subsidiaries, understanding and assessing the rationality of key valuation assumptions, performing independent valuation calculation, and determining whether the valuation differences are acceptable. Meanwhile, we review the disclosures of financial instruments valuations, including the fair value hierarchy of assets, to determine whether they complied with the related regulatory and accounting standards requirements.
Please refer to Notes 4, 5. (2) and 38. (2) for information about the Company and its subsidiaries’ financial instruments valuation.
Measurement of insurance liabilities
The measurement of the Company and its subsidiaries’ insurance liabilities is dependent on the calculations based on assumptions of current period or the assumptions established in the contracts to reflect the best estimates at that time. Nevertheless, these assumptions were set based on the relevant regulations and the professional judgements of internal specialists. With the high complexity, changes in assumptions adopted by the Company may affect the results when measuring the insurance liabilities. Therefore, we considered this a key audit matter.
Our audit procedures included, but not limited to, evaluating and testing the effectiveness of internal controls around insurance liabilities, including management’s decision and approval of the methods and assumptions used in setting aside various reserves and controls for changing the methods and assumptions; examining the data of calculating insurance liabilities; assessing the reasonableness of the Company and its subsidiaries’ actuarial judgements and actuarial assumptions used in the model with the assistance of our internal specialist performing audit procedures for insurance liabilities. We also considered whether the Company’s disclosures in the financial statements in relation to insurance liabilities are compliant with the relevant regulations and principles.
Please refer to Notes 4, 5. (2) and 22 for details of the Company and its subsidiaries’ insurance liabilities.
43
Investment properties measured at fair value
The Company and its subsidiaries’ investment properties are measured at fair value. Due to inaccessible market prices, the Company and its subsidiaries evaluate the fair value of investment properties based on external real estate appraisers firm’s valuation reports, which highly relied on the valuation approach chosen (including but not limited to income approach and market approach) and the assumptions. The approach chosen and the changes to the assumptions will impact the result of the investment properties valuation. Therefore, we determined investment properties measured at fair value as a key audit matter.
We conducted audit procedures for investment properties valuation, including but not limited to the following: evaluating the independence and qualification of external real estate appraisers, and enlisting the internal valuation specialist’s assistance to evaluate the external real estate appraisers firm’s valuation reports to understand the valuation approach adopted and ensure the reasonableness in the valuation approach adopted and key valuation assumptions so that we could verify whether the difference between the internal valuation specialist’s work and external valuation reports is acceptable.
Please refer to Notes 4, 5. (2) and 14 for information about the Company and its subsidiaries’ investment properties measured at fair value.
The Provision of Allowance for Loans
In accordance with IAS 39 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” and “Regulations Governing the Procedures for Banking Institutions to Evaluate Assets and Deal with Non-performing/Non-accrual Loans” of the ROC, the Company and its subsidiaries developed their own systems to perform both individual and collective assessments of impairment loss on loans and receivables . The systems assess the amount of an impairment loss based on parameters from historical experience or future cash flows on a case-by-case basis. The estimates of discount factors, including effective interest rate, incidence of impairment and recoverable rates, and the classification to assess whether there is any objective evidence that a loan is impaired, require professional judgment and uses of estimates and assumptions. Moreover, net of discounts and loans as of 31 December 2016 have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. Consequently, we regard this as key audit matters.
We assessed and tested the effectiveness of internal control relating to calculations of impairment, including the underlying data and systems with respect to impairment calculation. For loan loss provisions calculated on an individual basis, we tested the assumptions which were used to identify and quantify the impairments, including estimates of future cash flows, valuation of guarantee and estimates of recovery on default. For loan loss provisions calculated on a collective basis, we reviewed whether the models of impairment were approved by management and relied on our specialists to verify the effectiveness of those models. We also tested the appropriateness and accuracy of the inputs used in those models, such as recovery rates and historical loss rates. We reviewed whether management of the Company and its subsidiaries complied with the “Regulations Governing the Procedures for Banking Institutions to Evaluate Assets and Deal with Non-performing/Non-accrual Loans” of the ROC, including assessing appropriateness of the classification of loans and testing accuracy of impairment calculations.
Please refer to Notes 4, 5. (2) and 10 for information about the Company and its subsidiaries’ the provision of allowance for loans.
Assessment of goodwill impairment
IAS 36 requires entities to perform an impairment test annually. However the calculation made by management of the Company and its subsidiaries is complex and involves major subjective judgments and assumptions. Thus we conclude that assessment of goodwill impairment is a key audit matter of our audit.
Our audit procedures included but not limited to assessing the rationality of the Company and its subsidiaries’ financial forecasts and using internal experts to assist in assessing the rationality of the assumptions made by the Company and its subsidiaries’ management.
Please refer to Notes 4, 5. (2) and 16 for information about the Company and its subsidiaries’ goodwill impairment assessment.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Financial Holding Companies”, “Regulation Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and “International Financial Reporting Standards”, “International Accounting Standards”, “Interpretations developed by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee” as endorsed by Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the ability to continue as a going concern of the Company and its subsidiaries, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company and its subsidiaries or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance, including audit committee or supervisors, are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the Company and its subsidiaries.

2016 Financial Report
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
2. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the internal control of the Company and its subsidiaries.
3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
4. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability to continue as a going concern of the Company and its subsidiaries. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company and its subsidiaries to cease to continue as a going concern.
5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the accompanying notes, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
6. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company and its subsidiaries to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of 2016 consolidated financial statements and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
