CIM FINANCE. INTEGRATED REPORT 2022 | 127 EXPLANATORY NOTES 30 SEPTEMBER 2022 2. A CCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.7 Significant accounting policies (Cont’d) (q) Impairment of financial assets (Cont’d) Expected Credit losses are computed as unbiased, probability weighted amounts which are determined by evaluating a range of reasonably possible outcomes, the time value of money, and considering all reasonable and supportable information including that which is forward-looking. It also incorporates how defaulted loans are expected to be recovered, including the probability that the loans will cure and the value of collateral or the amount that might be received for selling the asset. The Group and the Company considered various methodologies including pooling, statistical, structural and reduced form. Taking into consideration, the large quantum of data, statistical regression model has been adopted for determining how the characteristic of an obligor affect its estimated PD. It also allows the analysis of macro-economic variable on the PD. The maximum period for which the credit losses are determined is the contractual life of a financial instrument unless the Company has the legal right to call it earlier. Provisions for ECLs for undrawn lease commitments are assessed as have been included within lease receivable. The mechanics of the ECL method are summarised below: • Stage 1 The 12mECL is calculated as the portion of LTECLs that represent the ECLs that result from default events on a financial instrument that are possiblewithin the 12months after the reporting date. The Group and the Company calculate the 12mECL allowance based on the expectation of a default occurring in the 12months following the reporting date. These expected 12-month default probabilities are applied to a forecast EAD and multiplied by the expected LGD and discounted by an approximation to the original EIR. • Stage 2 When a loan has shown a significant increase in credit risk since origination, the Group and the Company record an allowance for the LTECLs. The mechanics are similar to those explained above, including the use of multiple scenarios, but PDs and LGDs are estimated over the lifetime of the instrument. The expected cash shortfalls are discounted by an approximation to the original EIR. • Stage 3 For loans considered credit-impaired, the Group and the Company recognise the lifetime expected credit losses for these loans. The method is similar to that for Stage 2 assets, with the PD set at 100%. • Undrawn commitments When estimating LTECLs for undrawn commitments, the Group and the Company estimate the expected portion of the commitment that will be drawn down over its expected life. The ECL is then based on the present value of the expected shortfalls in cash flows if the facility is drawn down. The expected cash shortfalls are discounted at an approximation to the expected EIR on the loan.
