The amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate.
Impairment losses of loans at available for sale are defined to be the difference between the fair value of loans that exhibit indicators of impairment and original cost.
The maximum credit risk exposure for loans including undrawn credit facilities amounts to EUR 7,710 million in 2009 (2008: EUR 8,812 million), excluding the group companies.
The total amount of subordinated loans in this item, as at 31 December 2009, amounts to EUR 123 million (2008: EUR 106 million), of which EUR 14 million (2008: EUR 38 million) has been guaranteed by the Dutch State. No subordinated loans are included with respect to group companies.
As per 31 December 2009, EUR 36 million (2008: EUR 38 million) is guaranteed by the Dutch State.
If NIBC had fair valued the loans classified as amortised cost, then the balance sheet amount would decrease at the balance sheet date by EUR 184 million (2008: EUR 380 million) excluding group companies. This decrease reflects both changes due to interest rates and credit spreads.
As a policy, NIBC does not provide loans to its executives.
On 1 July 2008, following the IAS 39 amendments, an amount of EUR 74 million of the impairments related to the available for sale loans were reclassified to the loans category at amortised cost. The total amount of loans in the available for sale category net of impairments has been reclassified to the loans category at amortised cost as at 1 July 2008.
For the impact of the reclassifications following International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) amendments ‘IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurements’ on the income statement and on shareholder’s equity see notes to the consolidated financial statements 2009 of NIBC.

Subordinated assets included in interest bearing securities amount to EUR 4 million (2008: EUR 19 million).
Interest bearing securities do not include assets issued and bought by NIBC for market-making purposes. Any such assets are eliminated from the balance sheet.
Interest income from interest bearing securities and other fixed-income instruments is recognised in interest and similar income at the effective interest rate. Fair value movements (excluding interest) are recognised in net trading income.
The portion of fair value changes in 2009 included in the balance sheet amount (designated at fair value through profit or loss) at 31 December 2009 relating to the movement in credit spreads amounts to EUR 1 million debit, being an increase in the carrying value of the asset (2008: EUR 21 million credit).
For the interest bearing securities at amortised cost, the maximum credit exposure amounts to EUR 597 million (2008: EUR 825 million). The other interest bearing securities are reported at fair value, which represents the maximum credit exposure for these assets.
If NIBC had fair valued the interest bearing securities classified as amortised cost, then the balance sheet amount would decrease at the balance sheet date by EUR 154 million (2008: EUR 168 million). This decrease reflects both changes due to interest rates and credit spreads.
In 2009, EUR 13 million were recorded as impairments on interest bearing assets as amortised cost. No impairments were recorded in 2008.
As at 1 July 2008 debt investments from the available for sale and held for trading category were reclassified to debt investments at amortised costs.
For the impact of the implementation of IASB amendments ‘IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurements’ on the income statement and on shareholder’s equity see notes to the consolidated financial statements 2009 of NIBC.

Fair value hedges of interest rate risk
The interest rate risk of financial assets with a fixed interest rate classified at available for sale or at amortised costs are hedged with interest rate swaps under which NIBC pays a fixed rate and receives floating rates. Fair value hedge accounting is applied to these so-called hedge relationships.
Interest rate swaps under which NIBC pays a floating rate and receives a fixed rate, are used in fair value hedges of fixed interest rate liabilities (as far as not held for trading purposes or designated at fair value through profit or loss).
The following table discloses the fair value of the swaps designated in fair value hedging relationships.

If NIBC had not reclassified financial assets in 2008, fair value losses recognised for the year 2009 in the income statement, and losses recognised in the revaluation reserve in shareholder’s equity would have amounted to a net of tax loss of EUR 23 million (2008: loss of EUR 117 million) and a net tax gain of EUR 10 million (2008: los of EUR 220 million) respectively. Impairment charges would have amounted to nil for these assets that were classified out of available for sale into loans and receivables. In addition NIBC would have recognised interest income out available for sale assets for the amount of EUR 3 million (2008: EUR 8 million). For more information see note 45 of the consolidated financial statements.
Information on NIBC’s solvency ratios is included in the risk management section of this annual report.
At 31 December 2009, retained earnings and net profit attributable to the parent shareholder includes unrealised fair value changes on residential mortgages (own book and securitised), on certain non-listed trading assets, on derivatives related to residential mortgages (own book and securitised) and to these non-listed trading assets, on associates designated at fair value through profit or loss and on liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss. With respect to unrealised fair value gains arising on these instruments, a legal reserve has been established of EUR 258 million (2008: EUR 225 million), that is included in other reserves. At the balance sheet date, for associates accounted for based on net equity method, no further legal reserve has been established for both 2009 and 2008. At the balance sheet date the legal reserve for currency translation differences are nil for both 2009 and 2008.
Including the revaluation and hedging reserves displayed in note 45 of the consolidated financial statements, total legal reserves at 31 December 2009 amount to EUR 293 million (2008: EUR 268 million).

Commitments and contingent assets & liabilities |
|
|
21 |
At any time NIBC has outstanding commitments to extend credit. Outstanding offers for loan commitments have a commitment period that does not extend beyond the normal underwriting and settlement period of one to three months. Commitments extended to customers related to mortgages at fixed interest rates or fixed spreads are hedged with interest rate swaps recorded at fair value. These commitments are designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss.
NIBC provides financial guarantees and letters of credit to guarantee the performance of customers to third parties. These agreements have fixed limits and generally extend for a period up to five years. Expirations are not concentrated in any period.
The contractual amounts of commitments (excluding mortgages commitments which are measured at fair value through profit or loss) and contingent liabilities are set out in the following table by category. In the table it is assumed that amounts are fully advanced. The amounts for guarantees and letters of credit represent the maximum accounting loss that would be recognised at the balance sheet date if counterparties failed completely to perform as contracted.

In 2009, the item includes EUR 1,000 million (2008: EUR 1,000 million) in respect of guarantees to group companies.
These commitments and contingent liabilities have off-balance sheet credit risk because only commitment and origination fees and accruals for probable losses are recognised in the balance sheet until the commitments are fulfilled or expire. Many of the contingent liabilities and commitments will expire without being advanced in whole or in part. Therefore, the amounts do not represent expected future cash flows.
Details of concentrations of credit risk including concentrations of credit risk arising from commitments and contingent liabilities as well as NIBC’s policies for collateral for loans are set out in note 54 of the consolidated financial statements.
