15. Risk management
Niger Insurance Plc recognizes the need for fast and efficient service delivery. At the same time,
necessary attention is given to risk management. The company‟s approach is to minimize risk
complexity whilst improving efficiency in the workplace.
Insurance risk
Niger Insurance underwrites both General and Life insurance businesses. The nature of risks
involved are the likelihood that the insured event may occur and the uncertainty of the magnitude of
the resulting claim.
To mitigate against these risks, Niger Insurance Plc has produced and issued a company-wide
underwriting manual, covering acceptance criteria, pricing, accumulation control and levels of
authority. The manual serves as a guide to the underwriters in accepting risks on the basis of
prudence, professionalism, objectivity and risk discrimination. Besides, adequate Reinsurance
Treaty have been put in place and reviewed annually to take account of changing retention profile.
- Page 8 -
The company regularly trains and re-trains its underwriting staff to acquaint them with recent
developments in the risk bearing industry.
Besides, the company constantly reviews and controls risk quality and prudently applies policy
limits when the need arises. In addition, our Internal Control Unit monitors adherence to existing
guidelines via regular examination of the activities of various strategic business units.
Financial risks
Niger Insurance Plc is an active player in the economy. In the course of its operations, the
company uses various financial instruments including cash and its equivalents, bonds, equities and
trade debtors. Niger Insurance Plc is exposed to likely losses arising from market risk. Such risks
comprise fluctuations in interest rates, equity prices and rate of exchange of foreign currencies and
default in collection of receivables.
Niger Insurance Plc has developed a comprehensive financial management policy taking into
account the relevant regulatory investment guidelines. Appropriate manuals are provided detailing
administrative and accounting procedures. These manuals set out the framework for the investing
function and specify the conditions and benchmarks for the acceptable levels of exposure to credit,
currency and interest rate risks, etc.
Liquidity and credit risks
Liquidity or cashflow risk relate to the possibility that the company may encounter some difficulty
to mobilize funds to discharge its obligation to clients as and when the need arises.
Niger Insurance Plc‟s investment guidelines are formulated such that minimum levels of financial
assets are held in cash and cash equivalents with short maturity periods and easily convertible to
cash at short notice.
Credit risk refers to the likelihood that one party to a financial transaction may fail to fulfill its
obligation as and when due thereby causing the other party to a transaction to suffer financial loss.
Our company is exposed to credit risks through its investment in financial assets such as short-term
deposits, fixed interest securities and receivables.
Niger Insurance Plc‟s approach is to ensure that short-term deposits are placed with financial
institutions with high credit rating. Moreover, deposits are spread amongst high quality institutions
to avoid undue concentration on any one organization.
Credit risks associated with receivables are managed through a deliberate assessment of present and
potential clients to ensure their ratings meet with our set criteria for granting credit and making
necessary provision for doubtful and irrecoverable debts.
14. Auditors
Messrs Baker Tilly Nigeria (Chartered Accountants) have indicated their willingness to continue as
auditors in accordance with Section 357(2) of the Companies and Allied Matters Act Cap C20 LFN
2004. A resolution will be proposed to authorise the directors to fix their remuneration.
By Order of the Board

Documents Related To the Financial Results
All documents related to the financial results of Niger insurance plc are available on the Company's
website at www.nigerinsurance.com, in the section under Financial Reports.
Description of Niger insurance plc
Niger insurance plc is a composite insurance company with branch network & managers nationwide. It
underwrites life and general business insurance policies.
The Company‟s mission is “to be a customer-oriented provider of superior insurance services which can
be broadly classified into life and pensions; general business and special risk; and miscellaneous
insurance business.”
It is one of the leading insurance companies in Nigeria with over 400 staff.
Legal constitution
The company was established in 1962 as an affiliate of Yorkshire insurance company (U.K.) and was then
known as Yorkshire Insurance Company Nigeria Limited, with the registered office at 47, Marina, Lagos.
Following the implementation of the indigenization Act 1976, the Federal Ministry of Finance through
the National Insurance Corporation of Nigeria (NICON), wholly acquired the company and its name was
changed to „The Niger Insurance Company Limited. As a result of privatization policy of the Federal
government, the company‟s shares were sold to the public in 1989 and its name changed to Niger
Insurance Plc.
Business strategy of the company and overall performance
The group is registered and incorporated in Nigeria and is primarily engaged in the underwriting of life
and general insurance business. The company „s objectives is to become the insurance company of first
choice in Nigeria noted for transparency, efficiency and capacity in providing total financial solutions

- Page 10 -
Over the years, various strategies have been put in place to achieve the objectives such as networking by
expanding its distribution channels, products offering reappraisal, refocusing and managing the existing
talents to create value. The company also utilizes the development and deployment of electronic
platforms and facilities to all its regions and branches nationwide for quick and reliable service delivery.
The group has implemented the NAICOM directive on “NO PREMIUM, NO COVER” policy from the
1st of January, 2013. This policy aims to stimulate liquidity within the system by reducing the huge
receivables being carried on the statement of financial position of insurance companies. This will
positively impact the income statements of insurance companies by eliminating the large portion of
outstanding premium charge for the receivables and make available more cash which can be used to
generate more investment income.
Operating result, cashflow and financial condition
The entity„s critical performance measurement and indicators to evaluate the entity‟s performance against
stated objectives includes budgeting, ratio analysis and bench marking with industry average.
It is the company‟s plan to re-build and re-focus its investment portfolio by taking advantage of
opportunities in the fixed income securities for safe and guaranteed returns. The company is also
diversifying into oil and gas and telecommunications and other safe areas to grow its investment income.

of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the
financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
audit opinion.

NIGER INSURANCE PLC
COMPANY INFORMATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER, 2012
1. General information
(a) Reporting Entity
Niger Insurance Plc („the Company‟) underwrites life and non-life insurance risks, such as those associated
with death, disability, health, property and liability. The Company also issues a diversified portfolio of
investment contracts to provide its customers with asset management solutions for their savings and retirement
needs. The company was incorporated in 1962 as an affiliate of Yorkshire Insurance Company (UK) and was
then known as Yorkshire Insurance Nigeria Limited. Following the implementation of the indigenisation Act
of 1976, the Federal Ministry of Finance through the National Insurance Corporation of Nigeria (NICON)
wholly acquired the company and the company‟s name was changed to Niger Insurance Company Limited. As
a result of the privatisation policy of the Federal Government, the company‟s shares were sold to the public in
1989 and its name changed to Niger Insurance Plc.
The address of its registered office is 48/50 Odunlami Street, Lagos. The Company has a primary listing on
the Nigerian Stock Exchange.
Nature of entity’s operation and its principal activities
The principal activities of the company are the underwriting of life and general insurance businesses, payment
of claims and investments as described below: -
• Underwriting
The company underwrites both life and general insurance businesses. Under the life business, it
underwrites both group life and individual life businesses whilst its general business includes motor
vehicles, marine and aviation, fire, accident and sundry policies generally classified under miscellaneous
insurance policies. The company also handles deposits administration business, which is of a savings
nature in respect of which guaranteed interest is paid to the beneficiaries.
• Claims
The company pays claims incurred as part of its insurance business and which consist of the claims and
claim handling expenses.
• Investments
Niger Insurance Plc engages in investments of its funds in properties as well as in listed and unlisted
stocks, bonds, treasury bills and other money market instruments in line with the provisions of the
Insurance Act 2003.
2. Going concern
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. The Group has no
intention or need to reduce substantially its business operations. The Management believes that a going
concern assumption is appropriate for the group due to sufficient capital adequacy ratio and projected
liquidity, based on historical experience that short-term obligations will be refinanced in the normal course of
business. Liquidity ratio and continuous evaluation of current ratio of the group is carried out by the group to
ensure that there are no going concern threats to the operations of the group.
- Page 16 -
3. Basis of preparation
a) Statement of Compliance
The Group‟s first consolidated financial statements have been prepared in compliance with International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB)
and with the interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee
(IFRIC) as adopted by the Federal Republic of Nigeria, through the Financial Reporting Council Act No.
6 of 2011.
The transition balances as at 1 January, 2011 and the comparative figures as at 31 December, 2011 have
been restated accordingly. The accounting policies have been applied consistently to all periods presented
in these consolidated financial statements.
The Company‟s functional and presentation currency is the Nigerian naira.
b) Use of estimates and judgements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgements,
estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of
assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and
underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in
the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the
revision and the future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
c) Basis of measurement
The company prepares its financial statements under the historical cost convention as modified by
the fair value and revaluation of its investments and buildings.
4. Explanation of transition to IFRS
a) Implementation of IFRSs
These are the Group‟s first consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The Group publishes comparative information for the year in its
financial statements. The date of transition to IFRSs is effectively, 1 January, 2011, which represents the start
of the earliest period of comparative information presented. The opening balance sheet as at 1 January, 2011
has been restated accordingly. The accounting policies have been applied consistently to all periods presented
in these consolidated financial statements, and have been applied consistently by Group entities.
Comparative information at 31 December, 2011 is restated to take account of the requirements of all standards
including IAS 32 – Financial instruments: Presentation, IAS 39 – Financial instruments: Recognition and
Measurement and IFRSs 7 – Financial Instruments: Disclosure effective 1 July, 2009.
The most significant IFRSs impact for the Group originated from the implementation of IAS 39 – Financial
instruments: Recognition and measurement which requires the valuation of financial assets and liabilities at
fair values and impairment of financial assets to only be accounted if there is objective evidence that a loss
event has occurred after initial recognition but before the balance sheet date, IAS 27 – Consolidated and
separate financial statements and SIC 12 – Consolidated, Special purpose entities which requires the
consolidation of the Group‟s interest in the staff share Investments Trust and IAS 1 Presentation of financial
statements and the change in recognition and measurement for life contracts from fund accounting method to
annual accounting method.
- Page 17 -
The effect of the company‟s transition to IFRS is summarised as follows: -
i) Transition election;
ii) Explanation of material adjustments to cash and cash equivalents as at 1 January, 2011 and 31 December,
2011;
iii) Recognition of equity and comprehensive income as previously reported under Nigerian GAAP to IFRS;
iv) Adjustment to the statement of cash flows.
b) Transition election:
In preparing these financial statements in accordance with IFRS 1, the company has applied the mandatory
exceptions from full retrospective application of IFRS. The optional exemptions from full retrospective
application selected by the company are summarised below.
4.1. Transition elections
The IFRS 1 applicable exemptions and exceptions applied in the conversion from Nigerian GAAP to IFRS are
as follows:
Fair value or revaluation as deemed cost (IAS 16 and IAS 38)
An entity may elect to measure an item of property, plant and equipment, investment property or intangible
assets at the date of transition to IFRS at its fair value and use that fair value as its deemed cost at that date, or
may elect to use a previous GAAP revaluation of these assets at, or before, the date of transition to IFRS as
deemed cost at the date of the revaluation.
The Group has property, plant and equipment and the Company has elected to revalue its property plant and
equipment for the financial year ending 1 January, 2011 and the revalued amount represents the deemed cost
in the company‟s opening IFRS statement of financial position under IFRS.
4.1.1 Business combinations
The retrospective application of IFRS 3, (business combination) would require the restatement of all business
combination that occurred prior to the transition date. IFRS 1 provided an option not to apply IFRS 3
retrospectively to acquisition that occurred before the transition date.
The Company elected not to retrospectively apply IFRS 3, Business Combinations, to business combinations
that occurred prior to its Transition Date and such business combinations have not been restated.
4.1.2 Fair value of revaluation as deemed cost (IAS 16 and IAS 38)
An entity may elect to measure an item of property, plant and equipment, investment property or intangible
assets at the date of transition to IFRS at its fair value and use that fair value as its deemed cost at that date; or
may elect to use a previous GAAP revaluation of these assets at, or before, the date of transition to IFRS as
deemed cost at the date of the revaluation.
The Group has property, plant and equipment and the Company has elected to revalue its property plant and
equipment for the financial year ended 1 January, 2011 and the revalued amount represents the deemed cost in
the company‟s opening IFRS statement of financial position under IFRS.
4.1.3 Investments in subsidiaries, jointly controlled entities and associates (IAS 27)
Where a first-time adopter measures its investment in subsidiaries, jointly controlled entities and associates at
cost, it shall measure that investment in its separate opening IFRS statement of financial position either at cost
determined in accordance with IAS 27 or at deemed cost. The deemed cost for the first-time adopter shall be
the investment‟s fair value (determined in accordance with IAS 39) at the entity‟s date of transition to IFRS in
its separate financial statements or previous GAAP carrying amount at that date.
- Page 18 -
The entity has adopted to measure its investments in its subsidiary in its separate opening IFRS statement of
financial position at cost determined in accordance with IAS 27.
4.1.4 Designation of previously recognised financial instruments (IAS 39)
IAS 39 permits a financial asset to be designated on initial recognition as available for sale or a financial
instrument (provided it meets certain criteria) to be designated as a financial asset or financial liability at fair
value through profit or loss. An entity is permitted to designate, at the date of transition to IFRSs, any
financial asset or financial liability as at fair value through profit or loss provided the asset or liability meets
the criteria in IAS 39 at that date.
Niger Insurance has designated its financial assets or financial liability as either, held to maturity, loans and
recoverable, available for sale, held for trading, fair value through profit and loss for those that meets the
criteria in IAS 39.
4.1.5 De-recognition of financial assets and financial liabilities
An entity is required to avoid retrospective application of de-recognition requirements in IAS 39 for
transactions entered into before 1 January, 2011.
4.2 Explanation of material adjustments to NGAAP as at 1 January, 2011 and 31 December, 2011
A quantitative explanation of how the transition to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) has
affected the reported financial position, financial performance and cash flows of the Group and the Parent is
provided in note 36. The note includes reconciliations of equity and profit or loss for comparative periods
reported under Nigerian GAAP (previously GAAP) to those reported for this period under IFRS.
5. New Standards and Amendments
(a) New standards and amendments issued but not effective for the financial year beginning 1 January,
2012 and not early adopted are as follows:-
New Standards
(i) IFRS 9- Financial instruments
IFRS 9 requires financial assets to be classified into two measurement categories: those measured at
fair value and those measured at amortised cost. The determination is 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. For financial liabilities, the standard retains
most of the IAS 39 requirements. The main change is that, in cases where the fair value options is taken
for financial liabilities, the part of a fair value change due to an entity‟s own credit risk is recorded in
other comprehensive income rather than the income statement, unless this creates a qualitative
mismatch. The adoption of the first phase of IFRS 9 will have an effect on the classification and
measurement of the Company‟s financial assets, we will now have two main categories of financial
assets i.e. fair value and amortised cost (as opposed to the four categories prescribed by IAS 39 – fair
value through profit and loss, loans and receivables, held to maturity and available for sale financial
assets) but will potentially have no impact on classification and measurements of financial liabilities.
The Group intends to adopt IFRS 9 not later than the accounting period beginning 1 January, 2015.
(ii) IFRS 10- Consolidated financial statements
IFRS 10 introduces a single control to determine whether an investee should be consolidated. As a
result, a company may need to change its consolidation conclusion in respect of its investees, which
may lead to changes in the current accounting for these investees. The Group intends to adopt IFRS 10
not later than the accounting period beginning 1 January, 2013.
- Page 19 -
(iii) IFRS 12- Disclosures of interests in other entities
This standard brings together into a single standard all the disclosure requirements about an entity‟s
interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and unconsolidated structured entities. IFRS 12
requires the disclosure of information about the nature, risks and financial effects of these interest. The
Group intends to adopt IFRS 12 not later than the accounting period beginning 1 January, 2013.
(iv) IFRS 13 – Fair value measurement
IFRS 13 provides a single source of guidance on how fair value is measured, and replaces the fair value
measurement guideline that is currently dispersed throughout IFRS. The Group is currently reviewing
its methodologies in determining fair values in line with this standard. The Group intends to adopt
IFRS 13 not later than the accounting period beginning 1 January, 2013.
Amendments
(v) IAS 27 as amended
IAS 27 as amended, is limited to accounting for investment in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates
in separate financial statements. The Group is yet to assess IAS 27‟s full impact and intends to adopt it
not later than the accounting period beginning 1 January, 2013.
The adoption of IFRS 10,12,13, and IAS 27 as amended has no material effect on the Company‟s accounting
policies.
(vi) Annual improvements 2011
These annual improvements, address six issues in the 2009- 2012 reporting cycle. It includes changes
to:
IFRS 1, „First time adoption‟
IAS 1, „Financial statement presentation‟
IAS 16, „Property plant and equipment‟
IAS 32, „Financial instruments, presentation‟
IAS 34, „Interim financial reporting‟
(b) The IASB and the IFRIC have published the following standards and interpretations, which were not
yet effective. The standards, amendments and interpretation are not expected to be relevant to the
group‟s operations:
IFRS II Joints arrangements 1 January, 2013
IAS 19 Amendment to IAS 19 employee benefit 1 January, 2013
IAS 28 Investments in associate and JV 1 January, 2013
IFRIC 20 Costing in the production phase of a surface mine 1 January, 2013
6. Assets and liabilities of subsidiaries
IFRS 1 allows the Group and the subsidiaries to adopt different dates for strategic or regulatory reasons. This
exemption allows a subsidiary to measure its assets and liabilities either at the carrying amounts included in its
parents consolidated IFRS financial statements or on the basis of IFRS 1 as applied to its statutory financial
statements at its own date of financial statements, these carrying amounts are adjusted, where relevant, to
exclude consolidation and acquisition adjustments. Goodwill on acquisition of associates is included in the
amount of the investment. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity is recognised in the income statement.
- Page 20 -
7. Summary of significant accounting policies
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are as set out below.
These policies have been applied consistently to all years presented, unless otherwise stated.
7.1 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand and at bank, unrestricted balances held with Central Bank, call
deposits and short term highly liquid financial assets (including money market funds) with original maturities
of less than three months, which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in their fair value, and are used by
the company in the management of its short-term commitments.
7.2 Financial assets
i. Recognition
Financial assets are initially recognized at fair value, which includes transaction costs. Subsequent to initial
measurement, financial instruments are measured either at fair value or amortised cost, depending on their
classification.
ii. Classification
The Group classifies its financial assets into the following categories: available for sale, held to maturity
loans and receivables, and financial asset at fair value through profit and loss. The classification is
determined by management at initial recognition depending on the purpose for which the investments
were acquired.
a) Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale investments are financial assets that are intended to be held for an indefinite period of time,
which may be sold in response to needs for liquidity or changes in interest rates, exchange rates or equity
prices or that are not classified as loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments or financial assets at fair
value through profit and loss. Unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of available-
for-sale financial assets are recognised in other comprehensive income while the investment is held and are
subsequently transferred to the income statement upon sale or de-recognition of the investment.
Interest income, calculated using the effective interest method, is recognised in the income statement.
Dividends received on available-for-sale instruments are recognised in income statement when the Company‟s
right to receive payment has been established.
b) Held-to-maturity financial assets
Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and
fixed maturities that the Company‟s management has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity.
Where the company sells more than an insignificant amount of held-to-maturity assets, the entire category
would be tainted and reclassified as available-for-sale assets and the difference between amortised cost and
fair value will be accounted for in equity.
- Page 21 -
Interest on held-to-maturity investments are included in the income statement and are reported as „Interest and
similar income‟. Held-to-maturity investments are carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest
method. An impairment is reported as a deduction from the carrying value of the investment and recognised in
the income statement as „Net gains/(losses) on investment securities‟.
c) Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not
quoted in an active market other than those that the Company intends to sell in the short term or that it has
designated as at fair value through profit and loss or available for sale.
Loans and receivables consist primarily of Staff loans and advances (which are managed in accordance with a
documented policy and information is provided internally on this basis), Agents and Brokers loans and loans
receivable from related parties which arise in the ordinary course of business. Loans and receivables are
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses.
d) Financial assets fair value through profit and loss
Financial assets designated as „at fair value through profit and loss‟ at inception are those that are:
Held in internal funds to match insurance and investment contracts liabilities, that are linked to the changes in
fair value of these assets. The designation of these assets to be at fair value through profit and loss eliminates
or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency (sometimes referred to as „an accounting
mismatch‟) that would otherwise arise from measuring assets or liabilities or recognising the gains and losses
on them on different bases.
Information about these financial assets is provided internally on a fair value basis by the Company‟s key
management personnel. The Company‟s investment strategy is to invest in equity and debt securities and to
evaluate them with reference to their fair values. Assets that are part of these portfolios are designated upon
initial recognition at fair value through profit and loss .The fair values of quoted investments in active markets
are based on current bid prices. The fair values of unlisted securities, and unquoted investments for which
there is no active market, are established using valuation techniques corroborated by independent third parties.
These may include reference to the current fair value of other instruments that are substantially the same.
Interest earned and dividends received while holding trading assets at fair value through profit or loss are
included in net trading income. The group as at 31 December, 2012 do not have any financial assets
classified as fair value through profit and loss.
iii. Measurements of financial assets
The best evidence of the fair value of a financial assets on initial recognition is the transaction price, i.e. the
fair value of the consideration paid or received, unless the fair value is evidenced by comparison with other
observable current market transactions in the same instrument, without modification or repackaging, or based
on discounted cash flow models.
Subsequent to initial recognition, the fair values of financial instruments are based on quoted market prices or
dealer price quotations for financial instruments traded in active markets. If the market for a financial asset is
not active or the instrument is an unlisted instrument, the fair value is determined by using applicable
valuation techniques. These include the use of recent arm‟s length transactions, discounted cash flow analyses,
pricing models and valuation techniques commonly used by market participants.
- Page 22 -
Where discounted cash flow analyses are used, estimated cash flows are based on management‟s best
estimates and the discount rate is a market-related rate at the balance sheet date from a financial asset with
similar terms and conditions.
Where pricing models are used, inputs are based on observable market indicators at the balance sheet date and
profits or losses are only recognised to the extent that they relate to changes in factors that market participants
will consider in setting a price.
iv. Reclassification of financial assets
Financial assets other than loans and receivables are reclassified out of the held for-trading category only in
rare circumstances arising from a single event that is unusual and highly unlikely to recur in the near-term. In
addition, the Company may choose to reclassify financial assets that would meet the definition of loans and
receivables out of the held-for-trading or available-for-
sale categories if the Company has the intention and ability to hold these financial assets for the foreseeable
future or until maturity at the date of reclassification.
Reclassifications are made at fair value at the reclassification date. Fair value becomes the new cost or
amortised cost as applicable, and no reversals of fair value gains or losses recorded before reclassification
date are subsequently made. Effective interest rates for financial assets reclassified to loans and receivables
and held-to-maturity categories are determined at the reclassification date. Further increases in estimates of
cash flows adjust effective interest rates prospectively.
v. Impairment of financial assets
(a) Financial assets carried at amortised cost
The Group assesses at the end of the reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial
asset or group of financial assets is impaired.
A financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is
objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that have occurred after the initial
recognition of the asset (a „loss event‟) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future
cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. Objective evidence
that a financial asset or group of assets is impaired includes observable data that comes to the attention of the
Group about the following events:
Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or debtor;
A breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in payments;
It becoming probable that the issuer or debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation;
The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties; or observable
data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flow 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, including:– adverse changes in the payment status of issuers or
debtors in the Group; or national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on the assets in the
Group.
The Group first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that
are individually significant. If the Group determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an
individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, it includes the asset in a group of financial
assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses them for impairment. Assets that are
individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is or continues to be recognised are
not included in a collective assessment of impairment.
- Page 23 -
If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred on loans and receivables or held-to-
maturity investments carried at amortised cost, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between
the asset‟s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit
losses that have been incurred) discounted at the financial asset‟s original effective interest rate. The carrying
amount of the asset is reduced, and the amount of the loss is recognised in the income statement. If a held-to-
maturity investment or a loan has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss
is the current effective interest rate determined under contract. As is practically expedient, the Company may
measure impairment on the basis of an instrument‟s fair value using an observable market price.
For the purpose of a collective evaluation of impairment, financial assets are grouped on the basis of similar
credit risk characteristics. Those characteristics are relevant to the estimation of future cash flows for groups
of such assets by being indicative of the issuer‟s ability to pay all amounts due under the contractual terms of
the debt instrument being evaluated.
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, the previously recognised impairment
loss is reversed by adjusting the assets. The amount of the reversal is recognised in the income statement.
(b) Assets classified as available for sale
The Group assesses at each date of the statement of financial position whether there is objective evidence that
a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. In the case of equity investments classified as
available for sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is an
objective evidence of impairment resulting in the recognition of an impairment loss. In this respect, a decline
of 10% or more is regarded as significant, and a period of 1 year or longer is considered to be prolonged. If
any such quantitative evidence exists for available-for-sale financial assets, the asset is considered for
impairment, taking qualitative evidence into account. The cumulative loss – measured as the difference
between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on those financial assets
previously recognised in profit or loss – is removed from equity and recognised in the income statement.
Impairment losses recognised in the income statement on equity instruments are not reversed through the
income statement. If in a subsequent period the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available for sale
increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was
recognised in profit or loss, the impairment loss is reversed through the income statement.
vi. Offsetting financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount 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 settle on
a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
vii. Derecognition of financial instruments
The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire,
or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which
substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred, or has assumed an
obligation to pay those cash flows to one or more recipients, subject to certain criteria.
Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the Group is recognized as a separate
asset or liability. The Company derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are
discharged, cancelled or expired.
- Page 24 -
7.3 Trade receivables
Trade receivables are receivable arising from insurance contract, these include amounts due from agents,
brokers and insurance contract holders.
They are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost less provision for
impairment. A provision for impairment is made when there is an objective evidence (such as the probability
of solvency or significant financial difficulties of the debtors) that the Group will not be able to collect all the
amount due under the original terms of the invoice. Allowance is made based on an impairment model which
consider the loss given default for each debtor, probability of default for the sectors in which the debtor
belongs and emergence period which serves as an impairment trigger based on the age of the debt. Impaired
debts are derecognised when they are assessed as uncollectible. 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, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed to the extent that the
carrying value of the asset does not exceed its amortised cost at the reversed date. Any subsequent reversal of
an impairment loss is recognised in the income statement.
7.4 Reinsurance assets
Contracts entered into by the Group with reinsurers under which the Group is compensated for losses on one
or more contracts issued by the Group and that meet the classification requirements for insurance contracts in
accounting policy 7.13 are classified as reinsurance contracts held. Contracts that do not meet these
classification requirements are classified as financial assets. Insurance contracts entered into by the Group
under which the contract holder is another insurer (inwards reinsurance) are included with insurance contracts.
Reinsurance assets consist of short-term balances due from reinsurers, as well as longer term receivables that
are dependent on the expected claims and benefits arising under the related reinsured insurance contracts.
Amounts recoverable from or due to reinsurers are measured consistently with the amounts associated with the
reinsured insurance contracts and in compliance with the terms of each reinsurance contract. Reinsurance
liabilities are primarily premiums payable for reinsurance contracts and are recognised as an expense when
due. The Group has the right to set-off re-insurance payables against amount due from re-insurance and
brokers in line with the agreed arrangement between both parties.
The Group assesses its reinsurance assets for impairment on a quarterly basis. If there is objective evidence
that the insurance asset is impaired, the Group reduces the carrying amount of the reinsurance asset to its
recoverable amount and recognises that impairment loss in the income statement. The Group gathers the
objective evidence that a reinsurance asset is impaired using the same process adopted for financial assets held
at amortised cost. The impairment loss is calculated using the incurred loss model for these financial assets.
These processes are described in accounting policy 7.2.
7.5. Deferred acquisition costs (DAC)
Commissions and other acquisition costs that are related to securing new contracts and renewing existing
contracts are capitalised as Deferred Acquisition Costs (DAC). All other costs are recognised as expenses
when incurred. The DAC is subsequently amortised over the life of the contracts in line with premium revenue
using assumptions consistent with those used in calculating future policy benefit liabilities.
7.6 Other receivables and prepayment
Other receivables and prepayment are recognised when due and at amortised cost less provision for
impairment. These include receivables from suppliers, rent receivables and prepayment and other receivable
other than those classified as trade receivable and loans and receivables.
If there is objective evidence that the receivable is impaired, the Group reduces the carrying amount of the
other receivable and prepayment accordingly and recognises that impairment loss in the income statement.
The Group gathers the objective evidence that an item of other receivable and prepayment is impaired using
- Page 25 -
the same methodology adopted for financial assets held at amortised cost. The impairment loss is calculated
under the same method used for these financial assets. These processes are described in accounting policy
7.2.
7.7 Investment in subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all entities over which the group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies
generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one half of the voting rights. The existence and effect of
potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the
group controls another entity.
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the group. They are de-
consolidated from the date on which control ceases.
The group uses the purchase method of accounting to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries. The cost of
an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities
incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition. Identifiable
assets acquired, liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially
at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any minority interest. The excess of the
cost of acquisition over the fair value of the group‟s share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as
goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the
difference is recognised directly in the income statement.
Intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains on intra-group transactions are eliminated. Unrealised
losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred.
7.8 Investment properties
Property held for long-term rental yields and(or) capital appreciation that is not occupied by the companies in
the Group is classified as investment property.
Investment property comprises freehold land and buildings. It is carried at fair values, adjusted if necessary,
for any difference in the nature, location or condition of the specific asset. If this information is not available,
the Group uses alternative valuation methods such as discounted cash flow projections or recent prices in less
active markets. Gains/losses in the fair value of investment properties are recognised in the income statement.
These valuations are reviewed annually by an independent valuation expert. investment property under
construction that is being developed for continuing use as investment property are measured at cost.
Property located on land that is held under an operating lease is classified as investment property as long as it
is held for long-term rental yields and is not occupied by the companies in the consolidated Group. The initial
cost of the property shall be the fair value (where available), when not available the initial cost shall be used.
The property is carried at fair value after initial recognition.
If an investment property becomes owner-occupied, it is reclassified as property, plant and equipment, and its
fair value at the date of reclassification becomes its cost for subsequent accounting purposes.
If an item of property, plant and equipment becomes an investment property because its use has changed, any
difference arising between the carrying amount and the fair value of this item at the date of transfer is
recognised in other comprehensive income as a revaluation of property, plant and equipment. However, if a
fair value gain reverses a previous impairment loss, the gain is recognised in the income statement. Upon the
disposal of such investment property any surplus previously recorded in equity is transferred to retained
earnings net of associated tax; the transfer is not made through profit or loss.
- Page 26 -
Properties could have dual purposes whereby part of the property is used for own use activities. The portion of a dual use
property is classified as an investment property only if it could be sold or leased out separately under a finance lease or if
the portion occupied by the owner is immaterial to the total lettable space. The group consider 10% of the lettable space
occupied by the owner as insignificant.
7.9 Deferred tax asset
Deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against
which the asset can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that
it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.
7.10 Intangible assets
Computer software
Software acquired by the company is stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.
Expenditure on internally developed software is recognised as an asset when the Company is able to demonstrate its
intention and ability to complete the development and use the software in a manner that will generate future economic
benefits, and can reliably measure the costs to complete the development. The capitalised costs of internally developed
software include all costs directly attributable to developing the software, and are amortised over its useful life.
Internally developed software is stated at capitalised cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment.
Subsequent expenditure on the software is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in
the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure is expensed as incurred.
Amortisation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life of the software, from the
date that it is available for use. The estimated useful life of software is 3 years. This is reassessed annually.
7.11 Property, Plant and Equipment
(i) Recognition and measurement
Items of property, plant and equipment comprise mainly outlets and offices occupied by the Group. They are carried at
cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the
acquisition of the asset.
Properties are measured at fair value less accumulated depreciation on leasehold land and building and impairment losses
recognised after the date of the revaluation. Valuation are performed on periodic basis to ensure that the fair value of the
assets does not differ materially from its carrying amount. Any revaluation surplus is recorded in other comprehensive
income and subsequently asset revaluation reserve in equity except to the extent that it reverses a revaluation deficit
earlier recognised on the same property in the income statement, in which case, the increase is recognised in the income
statement.
A revaluation deficit is recognised in the income statement, except to the extent that it reverses an existing surplus on the
same property in which case it is recognised in the other comprehensive income and subsequently in the asset revaluation
reserve in equity.
(ii) Subsequent costs
The cost of replacing part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in the carrying amount of the item if
it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Company and its cost can be
measured reliably. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognised in profit or loss
as incurred.
(iii) Depreciation
Depreciation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item
of property, plant and equipment. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives.
Depreciation begins when an asset is available for use and ceases at the earlier of the date that the asset is derecognised or
classified as held for sale in accordance with IFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations.
- Page 27 -
Land is not depreciated, depreciation on the building and other items of property, plant and equipment is
calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost or re-valued amounts over their estimated useful
lives.
The depreciation rates used for the current and comparative period are as follows:
Leasehold building In equal instalments over the period of the lease
Freehold buildings 1% of cost/valuation
Furniture, fittings and equipment 12 ½% on cost
Motor vehicles 20% on cost
Computer hardware 33⅓ % on cost
The assets‟ residual values and useful lives are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted, if
appropriate. An asset‟s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset‟s
carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
(iv) De-recognition
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised on disposal or when no future economic benefits are
expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the
difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss
in the year the asset is derecognised.
7.11.1 Impairment of non-financial assets
The carrying amounts of the Company‟s non-financial assets other than deferred tax assets are reviewed at
each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists,
then the asset‟s recoverable amount is estimated.
An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its
recoverable amount. A cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable asset group that generates cash flows
that are largely independent from other assets and groups. Impairment losses are recognised in the income
statement. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the
carrying amount of any intangible asset allocated to the units and then to reduce the carrying amount of the
other assets in the unit (group of units) on a pro rata basis.
The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value
less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present
value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the
risks specific to the asset.
Impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the
loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the
estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the
asset‟s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of
- Page 28 -
depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised. Reversals of impairment losses are
recognised in profit or loss.
7.12 Statutory deposit
Statutory deposit represents 10% of the paid up capital of the company deposited with the Central bank of
Nigeria (CBN) pursuant to Section 10(3) of the Insurance Act, 2003.
7.13 Insurance contracts
7.13.1 Classification of insurance contracts
The group classifies insurance contracts into life and non-life insurance contracts.
The Group issues contracts that transfer insurance risk or financial risk or both. Insurance contracts are those
contracts that transfer significant insurance risk. Such contracts may also transfer financial risk. As a general
guideline, the Group defines as significant insurance risk, the possibility of having to pay benefits on the
occurrence of an insured event that is at least 10% more than the benefits payable if the insured event did not
occur.
a) Life insurance contracts
These contracts insure events associated with human life (for example, death or survival) over a long duration.
b) General business insurance contracts
These contracts are accident and casualty and property insurance contracts
Accident and casualty insurance contracts protect the Group‟s customers against the risk of causing harm to
third parties as a result of their legitimate activities. Damages covered include both contractual and non-
contractual events. The typical protection offered is designed for employers who become legally liable to pay
compensation to injured employees (employers‟ liability) and for individual and business customers who
become liable to pay compensation to a third party for bodily harm or property damage (public liability).
Property insurance contracts mainly compensate the Group‟s customers for damage suffered to their properties
or for the value of property lost. Customers who undertake commercial activities on their premises could also
receive compensation for the loss of earnings caused by the inability to use the insured properties in their
business activities (business interruption cover).
Non-life insurance contracts protect the Group‟s customers from the consequences of events (such as death or
disability) that would affect the ability of the customer or his/her dependants to maintain their current level of
income. Guaranteed benefits paid on occurrence of the specified insurance event are either fixed or linked to
the extent of the economic loss suffered by the policyholder. There are no maturity or surrender benefits.
7.13.2 Recognition and measurement of insurance contracts
a) Insurance contract liabilities
Technical reserves
These are computed in compliance with the provisions of Section 20, 21 and 22 of the Insurance Act 2003 as
follows: -
i) General business
Reserves for unearned premium
In compliance with Section 20 (1) (a) of Insurance Act 2003, the reserve for unearned premium is calculated
on a time apportionment basis in respect of the risks accepted during the year.
- Page 29 -
Reserves for outstanding claims
The premium for unexpired risk represents the net liabilities on policies in force as computed by the actuaries
at the time of the actuarial valuation.
The reserve for outstanding claims is maintained at the total amount of outstanding claims incurred and
reported plus claims incurred but not reported (“IBNR”) as at the balance sheet date. The IBNR is based on
the liability adequacy test.
Reserves for unexpired risk
A provision for additional unexpired risk reserve (AURR) is recognised for an underwriting year where it is
envisaged that the estimated cost of claims and expenses would exceed the unearned premium reserve (UPR).
ii) Life business
General reserve fund
This is made up of net liabilities on policies in force as computed by the actuaries at the time of the actuarial
valuation.
iii) Liability adequacy test
At the end of each reporting period, liability adequacy tests are performed to ensure the adequacy of the
contract liabilities net of related Deferred Acquisition Cost (DAC) assets. In performing these tests, current
best estimates of future contractual cash flows and claims handling and administration expenses, as well as
investment income from the assets backing such liabilities, are used. Any deficiency is immediately charged to
profit or loss initially by writing off DAC and by subsequently establishing a provision for losses arising from
liability adequacy tests (the unexpired risk provision).
b) Insurance contract revenue and expenses
i. Premium
General business
In the non-life insurance business, the company offers fire, general accident, workmen compensation, marine
and aviation, engineering all risk, credit and goods in transit policies or insurance undertaking services.
Gross written premiums comprise the premiums on insurance contracts entered into during the year,
irrespective of whether they relate in whole or in part to a later accounting period. Premiums are disclosed
gross of commission to intermediaries. Premiums written include adjustments to premiums written in prior
accounting periods.
Premiums on reinsurance inward are included in gross written premiums and accounted for as if the
reinsurance was considered direct business, taking into account the product classification of the reinsured
business.
Outward reinsurance premiums are accounted for in the same accounting period as the premiums
for the related direct insurance or reinsurance business assumed. The earned portion of premiums received is
recognized as revenue. Premiums are earned from the date of attachment of risk, over the
indemnity period, based on the pattern of risk underwritten. Outward reinsurance premiums are recognized as
an expense in accordance with the pattern of indemnity received.
- Page 30 -
Life business
Premiums are recognised as revenue when they become payable by the contract holders. Premium are shown
before deduction of commission.
ii) Salvages
Some non-life insurance contracts permit the Group to sell (usually damaged) property acquired in the process
of settling a claim. The Group may also have the right to pursue third parties for payment of some or all costs
of damages to its clients property (i.e. subrogation right).
Salvage recoveries are used to reduce the claim expense when the claim is settled.
iii) Subrogation
Subrogation is the right for an insurer to pursue a third party that caused an insurance loss to the insured. This
is done as a means of recovering the amount of the claim paid to the insured for the loss. A receivable for
subrogation is recognised in other assets when the liability is settled and the company has the right to receive
future cash flow from the third party.
iv) Claims
Claims and other benefits are recorded as an expense when they are incurred for both life and non-life
business.
7.14 Investment contracts liabilities
Investment contracts are those that transfer financial risk with no significant insurance risk. Investment
contracts can be classified into interest linked and un-utilized fund. Interest linked investment contracts are
measured at amortised cost while unutilised funds are measured at fair value.
Investment contracts with guaranteed returns (interest linked) and other business of a savings nature are
recognised as liabilities. Interest accruing to the life assured from investment of the savings is recognised in
the income statement in the year it is earned while interest paid and due to depositors is recognised as an
expense. The net result of the deposit administration revenue account is transferred to the income statement of
the group.
7.15 Borrowings
Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are
subsequently stated at amortised cost, any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the
redemption value is recognised in the income statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective
interest method.
Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction cost of the loan to the extent that
it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw
down occurs. To the extent that there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be
drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a pre-payment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the
facility to which it relates.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the group has an unconditional right to defer settlement
of the liabilities for at least 12 month after the date of the statement of financial position.
- Page 31 -
7.15.1 Borrowing costs.
Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction and production of a qualifying
asset are capitalised as part of the cost of the asset over the period up to the time such asset is substantially
ready for its intended use. Other borrowing cost are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are
incurred. When the carrying amount or the expected ultimate cost of the qualifying asset exceeds its
recoverable amount or net realisable value, the carrying amount is written down or written off. Investment
income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying
assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.
7.16 Trade payables
Trade payable are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective
interest method. The fair value of a non-interest bearing liability is its discounted repayment amount. If the
due date of the liability is less than one year discounting is omitted.
7.17 Provisions and other payables
i. Provisions
A provision is recognized only if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive
obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be
required to settle the obligation. The provision is measured at the best estimate of the expenditure required to
settle the obligation at the reporting date.
Provisions are normally made for restructuring costs and legal claims.
ii. Restructuring
A provision for restructuring is recognised when the company has approved a detailed and formal
restructuring plan and the restructuring plan has either commenced or been formally communicated.
iii. Onerous Contracts
A provision for onerous contracts is recognised when the expected benefits to be derived by the company from
a contract are lower than unavoidable costs of meeting obligations under the contract. The provision is
measured at the present value of the lower of expected costs of terminating the contract and the expected costs
of continuing the contract. Before a provision is established, the company recognises any impairment loss on
the assets associated with that contract.
v) Deferred income
Deferred income represent a proportion of commission received on reinsurance contracts which are booked
during a financial year and are deferred to the extent that they are recoverable out of future revenue margins.
It is calculated by applying to the reinsurance commission income the ratio of prepaid reinsurance to
reinsurance cost.
7.18 Income tax expense
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognised in the income
statement except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity, in which case it is
recognised in equity or in other comprehensive income.
- Page 32 -
Current income tax is the estimated income tax payable on taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted
or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous
years.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised where the carrying amount of an asset or liability differs from
its tax base. Deferred taxes are recognized using the balance sheet liability method, providing for temporary
differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the
amounts used for taxation purposes (tax bases of the assets or liability). The amount of deferred tax provided
is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities
using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Additional income taxes that arise from the distribution of dividends are recognised at the same time as the
liability to pay the related dividend is recognised.
7.19 Share capital
Shares are classified as equity when there is no obligation to transfer cash or other assets.
7.20 Share premium reserve
Share premium reserve represent surplus on the per value price of share issued. Incremental costs directly
attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity (short premium reserve) as a deduction.
7.21 Contingency reserve
a) General business
In compliance with Section 21(2) of Insurance Act 2003, the contingency reserve is credited with the greater
of 3% of total premiums, or 20% of the net profits. This shall accumulate until it reaches the amount of
greater of minimum paid-up capital or 50 percent of net premium.
b) Life business
In compliance with Section 22(1) (b) of Insurance Act 2003, the contingency reserve is credited with the
higher of 1% of gross premiums or 10% of net profit.
7.22 Asset revaluation reserve
The reserve represents revaluation surplus on the Group revalued items of property, Plant and Equipment, the
surplus is recognised net of tax through the statement of other comprehensive income.
7.23 Fair value reserve
Fair value reserve represent fair value gain on available for sale financial asset that do not reserve any
previous loss on such asset. The fair value gain is recognised net of tax through the other comprehensive
income statement.
7.24 Contingent liabilities and assets
i) Contingent liabilities
A contingent liability is disclosed, unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic
benefits is remote. Where the company is jointly and severally liable for an obligation, the part of the
obligation that is expected to be met by other parties is treated as a contingent liability. The entity recognises a
- Page 33 -
provision for the part of the obligation for which an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is
probable, except in the extremely rare circumstances where no reliable estimate can be made. Contingent
liabilities are assessed continually to determine whether an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits
has become probable. If it becomes probable that an outflow of future economic benefits will be required for
an item previously dealt with as a contingent liability, a provision is recognised in the financial statements of
the period in which the change in probability occurs except in the extremely rare circumstances where no
reliable estimate can be made.
ii) Contingent assets
Contingent assets arising from unplanned or other unexpected events giving rise to the possibility of an inflow
of economic benefits are disclosed in the financial statements. Contingent assets are assessed continually to
ensure that developments are appropriately reflected in the financial statements. If it has become virtually
certain that an inflow of economic benefits will arise, the asset and the related income are recognised in the
financial statements of the period in which the change occurs. If an inflow of economic benefits has become
probable, an entity discloses the contingent asset.
7.25 Revenue recognition
Revenue comprises the fair value for services, net of value-added tax, after eliminating revenue within the
Group Revenue is recognised as follows: -
a) Gross premium
Gross recurring premiums on life are recognised as revenue when payable by the policyholder. For single
premium business, revenue is recognised on the date on which the policy is effective.
Gross general insurance written premiums comprise the total premiums receivable for the whole period of
cover provided by contracts entered into during the accounting period. They are recognised on the date on
which the policy commences. Premiums include any adjustments arising in the accounting period for
premiums receivables in respect of business written in prior accounting periods. Rebates that form part of the
premium rate, such as no-claim rebates, are deducted from the gross premium; others are recognised as an
expense. Premiums collected by intermediaries, but not yet received, are assessed based on estimates from
underwriting or past experience and are included in premiums written.
Unearned premiums are those proportions of premiums written in a year that relate to periods of risk after the
reporting date. Unearned premiums are calculated on a daily pro-rata basis. The proportion attributable to
subsequent periods is deferred as a provision for unearned premiums.
b) Rendering of services: Revenue arising from asset management and other related services offered by the
Group are recognised in the accounting period in which the services are rendered. Fees consist primarily of
investment management fees arising from services rendered in conjunction with the issue and management of
investment contacts where the Group actively manages the consideration received from its customers to fund a
return that is based on the investment profile that the customer selected on origination of the instrument.
These services comprise the activity of trading financial assets and derivatives in order to reproduce the
contractual returns that the Group‟s customers expect to receive from their investments. Such activities
generate revenue that is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contractual reserves.
- Page 34 -
In all cases, these services comprise an indeterminate number of acts over the life of the individual contracts.
For practical purposes, the Group recognises these fees on a straight-line basis over the estimated life of the
contract. Certain upfront payments received for asset management services („front-end fees‟) are deferred and
amortised in proportion to the stage of completion of the service for which they were paid.
The Group charges its customers for asset management and other related services using the following different
approaches: Front-end fees are charged to the client on inception. This approach is used particularly for
single premium contracts. The consideration received as a liability and recognised over the life of the contract
on a straight-line basis: and Regular fees are charged to the customer periodically (monthly, quarterly or
annually) either directly or by making a deduction from invested funds. Regular charges billed in advance are
recognised on a straight-line basis over the billing period; fees charged at the end of the period are accrued as
a receivable that is offset against the financial liability when charged to the customer.
c) Fees and commission
Insurance and investment contract policyholders are charged for policy administration services, investment
management services, surrenders and other contract fees. These fees are recognised as revenue over the
period in which the related services are performed. If the fees are for services provided in future periods, then
they are deferred and recognised over those future periods.
Investment income
Interest income is recognised in the income statement as it accrues and is calculated by using the effective
interest rate method. Fees and commissions that are an integral part of the effective yield of the financial asset
or liability are recognised as an adjustment to the effective interest rate of the instrument.
Investment income also include dividends when the right to receive payment is established. For listed
securities, this is the date the security is listed as exdidivend.
Realized gains and losses
Realised gains and losses recorded in the income statement on investments include gain and losses on
financial assets and investment properties. Gains and losses on the sale of investments are calculated as the
difference between net sales proceeds and the original or amortised cost and are recorded on occurrence of the
sale transaction.
d) Dividend income
Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive income is established. Dividends are reflected as a
component of net trading income, net income on other financial instruments at fair value or other operating
income depending on the underlying classification of the equity instrument.
e) Interest
Interest income and expense for all interest bearing financial instruments, except for those classified at fair
value through profit or loss, are recognised within „interest income‟ and „interest expense‟ in the income
statement using the effective interest method. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts the
estimated future cash payments and receipts through the expected life of the financial asset or liability (or,
where appropriate, a shorter period) to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or liability. The effective
interest rate is calculated on initial recognition of the financial asset and liability and is not revised
subsequently.
- Page 35 -
The effective interest rate includes all fees paid or received, transaction costs, and discounts or premiums that
are an integral part of the effective interest rate. Transaction costs are incremental costs that are directly
attributable to the acquisition, issue or disposal of a financial asset or liability. Interest income and expense on
all trading assets and liabilities are considered to be incidental to the company‟s trading operations and are
presented together with all other changes in the fair value of trading assets and liabilities in net trading
income. Interest income and expense presented in the income statement include interest on financial assets and
liabilities at amortised cost on an effective interest rate basis.
Fair value changes on other financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value through profit or loss, are
presented in net income from other financial instruments and carried at fair value in the income statement.
f) Net trading income
Net trading income comprises gains less losses related to trading assets and liabilities, and includes all realised
and unrealised fair value changes, interests, dividends and foreign exchange differences.
g) Net income from other financial instruments at fair value
Net income from other financial instruments at fair value relates to non-qualifying financial assets and
liabilities designated as „at fair value through profit or loss‟ and includes all realised and unrealised fair value
changes, interest, dividends and foreign exchange differences.
h) Other operating revenues
This comprises revenue earned by the company during the year that is directly from insurance operation and
not accounted for under any other separate leads on the financial statements.
7.26 Benefit, claims and expenses recognition
Gross benefits and claims
Gross benefits and claims for life insurance contracts include the cost of all claims arising during the year,
including internal and external claims handling costs that are directly related to the processing and settlement
of claims. Changes in the gross valuation of insurance are also included.
Death claims and surrenders are recorded on the basis of notifications received. Maturities and annuity
payments are recorded when due. General insurance claims include all claims occurring during the year,
whether reported or not, related internal and external claims handling costs that are directly related to the
processing and settlement of claims, a reduction for the value of salvage and other recoveries, and any
adjustments to claims outstanding from previous years.
7.27 Reinsurance expenses
Reinsurance cost represents outward premium paid to reinsurance companies less the unexpired portion as at
the end of the accounting year.
7.28 Investment income and expenses
Investment income and expenses for all interest-bearing financial instruments including financial instrument
measured at fair value through profit or loss, are recognised within investment income and finance cost in the
income statement using the effective interest rate method. When a receivable is impaired, the Group reduces
the carrying amount to its recoverable amount, being the estimated future cash flow discounted at the original
effective interest rate of the instrument, and continues unwinding the discount as interest income.
- Page 36 -
7.29 Underwriting expenses
Underwriting expenses comprise acquisition costs and other underwriting expenses. Acquisition costs
comprise all direct and indirect costs arising from the writing of insurance contracts. Examples of these costs
includes, but are not limited to, commission expense, supervisory levy, supervising fees and other technical
expenses. Other underwriting expenses are those incurred in servicing existing policies/contract. These
expenses are charged in the income statement.
7.30 Deficits and surpluses on actuarial valuation
Actuarial valuation of the life fund is conducted every year to determine the net liabilities on the existing
policies and the adequacy of the assets representing the insurance fund as at the date of valuation. All deficits
arising therefrom are charged to the income statement while the surplus is appropriated to the shareholders
and credited to the income statement.
7.31 Management expenses
Management expenses are expenses other than claims, investment expenses, employee benefits, expenses for
marketing and administration and underwriting expenses. They include wages, professional fee, depreciation
expenses and other non-operating expenses. Other Operating expenses are accounted for on accrual basis and
recognised in the income statement upon utilization of the service or at the date of their origin.
7.32 Employees Benefit
Pension obligations:
The Group operates a defined contribution plan. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the
group pays fixed contributions to a separate entity. The group has no legal or constructive obligations to pay
further contributions if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to
employee service in the current and prior periods. For defined contribution plans, the group makes
contributions on behalf of qualifying employees to a mandatory scheme under the provisions of the Pension
Reforms Act of 2004. The group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid.
The contributions are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due. Prepaid contributions are
recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments is available.
7.33 Dividend on ordinary shares
Dividends on the Company‟s ordinary shares are recognised in equity in the period in which they are paid or,
if earlier, approved by the Company‟s shareholders.
Dividends for the year that are declared after the date of the statement of financial position are dealt with in
the subsequent events note.
7.34 Earnings per share
The Company presents basic earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by
dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average
number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or
loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for
the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
- Page 37 -
7.35 Hypothecation of assets
The company hypothecates its life and non-life business assets into those belonging to the policy holders,
other creditors and shareholders fund in accordance with section 26(i) of the Insurance Act/SC1.10E(3)
operational guideline.
7.36. Segment Reporting
A business segment is a group of assets and operations engaged in providing products or services that are
subject to risks and returns that are different from those of other business segments. A geographical segment is
engaged in providing products or services within a particular economic environment that are subject to risks
and returns that are different from those of segments operating in other economic environments. Segment
results, assets and liabilities include items directly attributable to segment as well as those that can be
allocated on a reasonable basis.
For Niger Insurance Plc, no geographical segment information is reported as the company‟s primary
geographical segment is Nigeria. Business segment is presented in respect of the Company‟s life and non-life
businesses and is based on the company‟s management and reporting structure.
7.37 Foreign Currency Translation
i. Transactions and balances:
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at
the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such
transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated
in foreign currencies are recognised in the income statement.
Translation differences on non-monetary items, such as equities held at fair value through profit or loss, are
reported as part of the fair value gain or loss. Translation differences on non-monetary items, such as equities
classified as available-for-sale financial assets, are included in the fair value reserve in equity.
7.38 Leases
i. Where the company is the lessee
Leases, in respect of which the company assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are
classified as finance leases. At the beginning of the lease term, the leased asset is measured at an amount equal
to the fair value of the leased asset less the present value of unguaranteed or partially guaranteed residual
value which would accrue to the lessor at the end of the term of the lease. Subsequent to initial recognition,
the asset is accounted for in accordance with the policy applicable to that asset.
Minimum lease payments made under finance leases are apportioned between the finance expense and the
reduction of outstanding liability. The finance expense is allocated to each period during the lease term so as
to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.
Contingent lease payments are accounted for by revising the minimum lease payments over the remaining
term of the lease when the lease adjustment is confirmed.
- Page 38 -
Other leases are classified as operating leases and are not recognised in the company‟s balance sheet.
Payments made under operating leases are recognised in the income statement on a straight line basis over the
term of the lease.
ii. When the company is the lessor
The Group does not lease out its fixed assets and as such are not lessors.

8. Risk and capital management framework
a. Government framework
The main objective of the company‟s risk management structure is to protect the company‟s shareholders from
the adverse effects of events that hinder the sustainable achievement of financial performance objective,
including failing to exploit opportunities. Key management recognises the critical importance of having
efficient and effective risk management systems in place.
The company has established a risk management function with clear terms of reference from the board of
directors, its committee and the associated executive management committees.
This is supplemented with a clear organisational structure with documented delegated authorities and
responsibilities from the board of directors to executive management committees and senior managers.
Lastly, a company policy framework which sets out the risk profiles for the company, risk management,
control and business conduct standards for the company‟s operations has been put in place. Each policy has a
member of senior management charged with overseeing compliance with the policy through the company.
The board of directors approves the company risk management policies and meets regularly to approve any
commercial, regulatory and organisational requirements of such policies. These policies define the company‟s
identification of risk and its interpretation, limit structure to ensure the appropriate quality and diversification
of assets, align underwriting and reinsurance strategy to the corporate goals and specify reporting
requirements.
b. Capital management objectives, policies and approach
The company has established the following capital management objectives, policies and approach to
managing the risks that affect its capital position.
▪ to maintain the required level of stability of the company thereby providing a degree of security to
policyholders
▪ to maintain the required level of stability of the company thereby providing a degree of security to
policyholders
▪ to allocate capital efficiently and support the development of business by ensuring that returns on
capital employed meet the requirements of its capital providers and of its shareholders.
▪ to retain financial flexibility by maintaining strong liquidity and access to a range of capital markets.
▪ to align the profile of assets and liabilities taking account of risks inherent in the business.
▪ to maintain financial strength to support new business growth and to satisfy the requirements of the
policyholders, regulators and stakeholders.
▪ to maintain strong credit ratings and healthy capital ratios in order to support its business objectives
and maximise shareholders value.
In reporting financial strength, capital and solvency are measured using the rules prescribed by the National
Insurance Commission. These regulatory capital tests are based upon required levels of solvency, capital and
a series of prudent assumptions in respect of the type of business written.
- Page 40 -
Agreement to capital management
The company seeks to optimise the structure and source of capital to ensure that it consistently maximises
returns to the shareholders and policyholders.
The company‟s approach to managing capital involves managing assets, liabilities and risks in a coordinated
way, assessing shortfall between reported and required capital levels on a regular basis and taking appropriate
action to influence the capital position of the company in the light of changes in economic conditions and risk
characteristics.‟
The primary source of capital used by the company is equity shareholders‟ funds and borrowings.
The company has had no significant changes in its policies and processes to its capital structure during the
past year from previous years.

The adjustments onto a regulatory basis represent assets inadmissible for regulatory reporting purposes.
NAICOM measures the financial strength of non-life insurers using a solvency margin model. It generally
expects non-life insurers to comply with this capital adequacy requirement.
Section 24 of the Insurance Act 2003 define solvency margin of a non-life insurer as the difference between
the admissible assets and liabilities and this shall not be less than 15% of the net premium income (Gross
Premium Income less Reinsurance Premium paid) of the minimum capital base (3 billion) whichever is
higher.
This test comprises insurers‟ capital against the risk profile. The regulator indicated that insurers should
produce a minimum solvency margin of 100%. During the year, the Group has consistently exceeded this
minimum. The regulator has the authority to request more extensive reporting and can place restrictions on
the Group‟s operations if the Group falls below this requirements.

Regulatory framework
Regulators are mainly interested in protecting the rights of policyholders and monitor them closely to ensure
that the company is satisfactorily managing affairs for their benefit. At the same time, regulators are also
interested in ensuring that the company maintains an appropriate solvency position to meet unforeseen
liabilities arising from economic shocks or natural disasters.
The operation of the company are subject to regulatory requirements within the jurisdictions in which it
operates. Such regulations not only prescribe approval and monitoring of activities, but also impose certain
restrictive provisions (e.g. capital adequacy) to minimise the risk of default and insolvency on the part of
insurance companies to meet unforeseen liabilities as these arise.
Insurance and financial risk
Insurance risk
The principal risk of the company faces under insurance contracts is that the actual claims and benefit
payments or the timing thereof, differ from expectations. This is influenced by the frequency of claims,
severity of claims, actual benefits paid and subsequent development of long-term claims. Therefore, the
objective of the company is to ensure that sufficient reserves are available to cover these liabilities.
- Page 42 -
The risk exposure is mitigated by diversification across a large portfolio of insurance contracts and
geographical areas. The variability of risks is also improved by careful selection and implementation of
underwriting strategy guidelines, as well as the use of reinsurance arrangements.
The company purchases reinsurance as part of its risk mitigation programme. Reinsurance ceded is placed on
both a proportional and non-proportional basis. The majority of proportional reinsurance is quota-share
reinsurance which is taken out to reduce the overall exposure of the company to certain classes of business.
Non-proportional insurance is primarily excess-of-loss reinsurance designed to mitigate the company‟s net
exposure to catastrophe losses. Retention limits for the excess-of-loss reinsurance vary by product line and
territory.
Amounts recoverable from reinsurers are estimated in a manner consistent with the outstanding claims
provision and are in accordance with the reinsurances contracts. Although the company has reinsurance
arrangements, it is not relieved of its direct obligations to its policyholders and thus a credit exposure exists
with respect to ceded insurance, to the extent that any reinsurer is unable to meet its obligations assumed
under such reinsurance agreements. The company‟s placement of reinsurance is diversified such that it is
neither dependent on a single reinsurer nor are the operations of the company substantially dependent upon
any single reinsurance contract.
Life insurance contract (including investment contract)
Life insurance contracts offered by the company include: whole life, term assurance and investment contract
liabilities (ICL). Whole life and term assurance are conventional regular premium products when lump sum
benefits are payable on death or permanent disability. ICL is an investment product which accepts deposit
from clients and other business of savings nature by agreeing to pay interest on those deposits for an agreed
period.
For contract for which death or disability is the insured risk, the significant factors that could increase the
overall frequency of claims are epidemics, widespread changes in lifestyles and natural disasters, resulting in
earlier or more claims than expected. For annuity contracts, the most significant factor is continued
improvement in medical science and social conditions that would increase longevity. For contacts with DPF,
the participating nature of these contracts results in a significant portion of the insurance risk being shared
with the insured party.
The company‟s underwriting strategy is designed to ensure that risks are well diversified in term of type of
risk and level of insured benefits. This is largely achieved through diversification across industry sectors and
geography, the use of medical screening in order to ensure that pricing takes account of current health
conditions and family medical history, regular review of actual claims experience and product pricing as well
as detailed claims‟ handling procedures. Underwriting limits are in place to enforce appropriate risk selection
criteria. Insurance contracts also entitle the company to pursue third parties for payment of some or all costs.
The company further enforces a policy of activity managing and promptly pursuing claims, in order to reduce
its exposure to unpredictable future developments that can negatively impact the company.
Key assumptions
Material judgement is required in determining the liabilities and in the choice of assumptions. Assumptions in
use are based on past experience, current internal data, external market indices and benchmarks which reflect
current observable market prices and other published information. Assumptions and prudent estimates are
determined at the date of valuation and no credit is taken for possible beneficial effects of voluntary
- Page 43 -
withdrawals. Assumptions are further evaluated on a continuous basis in order to ensure realistic and
reasonable valuations.
Sensitivities
The analysis which follows is performed for reasonable possible movements in key assumptions with all other
assumptions held constant, showing the impact on gross and net liabilities, profit before tax and equity. The
correlation of assumptions will have a significant effect in determining the ultimate claims liabilities, but to
demonstrate the impact due to changes in assumptions, assumptions had to be changed on an individual basis.
It should be noted that movements in these assumptions are non-linear. Sensitivity information will also vary
according to the current economic assumptions, mainly due to the impact of changes to both the intrinsic cost
and time value of options and guarantees. When options and guarantees exist, they are the main reason for the
asymmetry of sensitivities.
Non-life insurance contract (which comprise general insurance)
The company principally issues the following types of general insurance contracts: fire, motor, casualty,
workman compensation, personal accident, marine and oil and gas. Risks under non-life insurance policies
usually cover twelve months duration.
For general insurance contracts, the most significant risk arise from climate changes, natural disasters and
terrorist activities. For longer tail claims that take some years to settle, there is also inflation risk..
The above risk exposure is mitigated by diversification across a large portfolio of insurance contracts and
geographical areas. The variability of risks is improved by careful selection and implementation of
underwriting strategies, which are designed to ensure that risks are diversified in terms of type of risk and
level of insured benefits. This is largely achieved through diversification across industry sectors and
geography. Furthermore, strict claim review policies to assess all new and ongoing claims, regular detailed
review of claims handling procedures and frequent investigation of possible fraudulent claims are all policies
and procedure put to reduce the risk exposure of the company. The company further enforces a policy of
activity managing and promptly pursuing claims, in order to reduce its exposure to unpredictable future
developments that can negatively impact the business. Inflation risk is mitigated by taking expected inflation
into account when estimating insurance contract liabilities.
The company has also limited its exposure by imposing maximum claim amounts on certain contracts as well
as the use of reinsurance arrangements in order to limit exposure to catastrophic events (e.g. insurance,
earthquakes and flood damage).
The purpose of these underwriting and reinsurance strategies is to limit exposure to catastrophes based on the
company‟s risk appetite as decided by management. The overall aim is currently to restrict the impact of a
single catastrophic event to approximately 50% of shareholders‟ equity on a gross basis and 10% on a net
basis. In the event of such a catastrophe, counterparty exposure to a single reinsurer is estimated not to exceed
2% of shareholders‟ equity. The Board may decided to increase or decrease the maximum tolerance based on
market conditions and other factors.
Mortality and morbidity rates
Assumptions are based on standard industry and tables based on assumptions by the Actuary, according to the
type of contract written. They reflect recent historical experience and are adjusted when appropriate to reflect
the company‟s own experiences. An appropriate, but not excessive, prudent allowance is made for expected
- Page 44 -
future improvements. Assumptions are differentiated by gender, underwriting class, contract type and
occupational hazard.
An increase in rate will lead to an increase in premium. A decrease in the number of claim settlements will
lead to decrease in the expenditure and subsequent increase in profits.
Longevity
Longevity assumptions are based on standard industry and tables based on assumptions by the Actuary,
according to the type of contract written. An appropriate but not excessive prudent allowance is made for
expected future improvements. Assumptions are differentiated by genders, underwriting class and contract
type.
A decrease in longevity will lead to a decrease in number of annually payment payments and subsequent
decrease in expenditure increase profits.
Investment return
One of the major variables in determining the underwriting liabilities is the weighted average rate of returns.
The estimations are based on current market returns as well as expectations about future economic and
financial changes.
Any increase in investment returns would lead to a reduction in expenditure and subsequent positive effects on
orgainsation financials
Expenses
Expenses assumptions reflect the projected costs of administration of in-force policies and associated
expenses. The current level of expenses is taken as an appropriate expenses base on adjustment for expected
expense and inflation appropriately.
A decrease in the level of expenses would result in a decrease in expenditure thereby increasing shareholder‟s
profits.
Lapse and surrender rates
Surrender refers to the voluntary termination of policies by policyholders while lapse refer to the termination
of policies due to non-payment of premiums. Lapses assumptions are determined using statistical measures
based on the company‟s internal data and appropriate policy conditions.
Discount rate
Underwriting liabilities are the discounted value of the expected benefits and future administration expenses
directly related to the contracts, less the discounted value of the expected theoretical premium that would be
required to meet the future cash outflows. The rates are based on the current industry risk rates, adjusted for
the company‟s own risk exposure.
- Page 45 -
Key assumptions
The principal assumption underlying the liability estimates is that the company‟s future claims development
will follow a similar pattern to past claims development experience. This includes assumptions in respect of
average claim costs, claim handling costs, claim inflation factors and claim numbers for each accident year.
Additional qualitative judgements are used to assess the extent to which past trends may not apply in the
future, for example; once-off occurrence, changes in market factors such as public attitude to claiming,
economic conditions, as well as internal factors such as portfolio mix, policy conditions and claims handling
procedures, judgement is further used to assess the extent to which external factors such as judicial decisions
and government legislation affect the estimates.
Other key circumstances affecting the reliability of assumptions include variation in interest rates, delays in
settlement and changes in foreign currency rates.
Sensitivities
The non-life insurance claim liabilities are sensitive to the key assumptions that follow. It has not been
possible to quantify the sensitivity of certain assumptions such as legislative changes or uncertainty in the
estimation process. Niger to disclose for 2012 and 2011 the impact of changes in assumptions, impact on
gross liabilities, impact on profit before tax and impact on equity of 10% increase in average claim cost,
average number of claims and average claim settlement period.
Financial risks
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss to the other party by
falling to discharge an obligation at the due date.
Credit risk is the risk of loss arising from the failure of a client or counterparty to fulfil its obligations to Niger
Insurance Plc. This Credit Risk Management framework being part of Enterprise Risk Management
framework has been prepared and approved to provide broad guidelines for management of credit risk in the
insurance company.
In addition to credit risks arising out of investments and transactions with clients, Niger actively assumes
credit risk through the writing of insurance business and the approval and issuance of loans. Credit risk can
arise when a client defaults on loan payments or settlement of premium payments and can also arise when its
own repayment capacity decreases.
Niger‟s strategy as insurance company does not entail the elimination of credit risk but rather to take on credit
risk in a well-controlled, planned and targeted manner pursuant to its business objectives its approach to
measuring credit risk is therefore designed to ensure that it is assessed accurately in all its forms, and that
relevant, timely and accurate credit risk information is available to the relevant decision makers at an
operational and strategic level at all times. At a strategic level, Niger manages its credit risk profile within the
constraints of its overall risk appetite and structured its portfolio so that it provides optimal returns for the
level of risk taken. Operationally, the insurance company credit risk management is governed by the overall
risk appetite framework and aims to ensure that the risk inherent to individual exposures or certain business
portfolios are appropriately managed through the economic cycle.
- Page 46 -
The organization is committed to:
a) Create, monitor and manage credit risk in a manner that complies with all applicable laws and
regulations;
b) Identify credit risk in each investment, loan or other activity of the insurance company;
c) Utilize appropriate, accurate and timely tools to measure credit risk;
d) Set acceptable risk parameters;
e) Maintain acceptable levels of credit risk for existing individual credit exposures;
f) Maintain acceptable levels of overall credit risk for Niger‟s portfolio; and
g) Coordinate credit risk management with the management of other risks inherent in Niger‟s business
activities.
Unsecured exposures to high risk obligors, transactions with speculative cash flows, loans in which the
insurance company will hold an inferior or subordinate position are some of the credit exposures that are
considered undesirable by the company.
Credit exposure
The company‟s maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of the statement of financial position at
31 December, 2012 and 2011 is the carrying amounts as presented in the note.
The credit risk analysis below is presented in line with how the company manages the risk. The company
manages its credit exposure based on the carrying value of the financial instruments.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with
financial instruments. In respect of catastrophic events there is also a liquidity risk associated with the timing
differences between gross cash out-flows and expected reinsurance recoveries.
This is the potential for loss to the company arising from either its inability to meet its obligations or to fund
increases in liabilities as they fall due without incurring unacceptable cost or losses. The liquidity risk
management framework which is a segment of ERM framework manual ensures that Niger is not unduly
exposed to Liquidity Risk and is in compliance with regulatory requirements and international best practice
with respect to Liquidity Risk Management.
Final authority and responsibility (outlined in the ERM framework) for all activities that expose Niger to
Liquidity Risk Management rests with the Board of Directors and the Board of Directors subsequently,
delegates this authority to the Board investment and Enterprise Risk Management Committee and the
Management Executive Committee (EXCO).
The key elements of the organisation‟s liquidity risk management process are:
▪ Definition of Niger‟s liquidity strategy
▪ Identification of liquidity risk
▪ Measurement of liquidity risk
▪ Controlling, monitoring and reporting liquidity risk.
The Board Investment and Enterprise Risk Management meet quarterly while management meet monthly to
review the liquidity position of the company.

Fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that
are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e.) or indirectly (i.e.) derived from prices; and
level 3:
Fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the assets or
liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
