The financial and operating performance of the First six months of 2021 was, as anticipated, marked by the impact of the disruption brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. Although economic recovery has been gaining momentum this process continues to be hindered by the ripple effects of the past events.
The Group's strategy has been aligned to the new economic reality and financial projections have been careflect our progress towards recovery. We are pleased to note, that daff of the year, the key components of this revitalised strategy have translated into a positive outcome in the Group's performance.
The Group was successful in resolving a few recovering legacy cases, which were delayed by a slowdown in the various legal jurisdictions during the course of the Group is reaping the benefits of the de-risking process which was implemented throughout the last two years, as no other material as non-performing during this period. This has allowed the Group to progress on a key strategic objective, that of decreasing the size of its non-preforming the asset quality ratios.
The interest revenue generation potential remains impacted by the current low interest rate environment. This creates an opportunity for the future once central banks determine that the recovery is safe and conditions are ripe to start considering monetary policies. The pick-up in overall business volumes and improving valuations are the increase in non-interest income.
Throughout the period in review, the Group's capital position remained strong with a total capital ratio of 18.4%. This allows the Bank to benefit from improving business conditions and capture incremental revenue streams of business of buitable risk-adjusted returns.
For the first half of the year, the Group reported USD1 million reflects the Group's focus and its successful adaptation to the challenging conditions experienced over the past months.

FIMBank Group reported a profit before tax of USD2.3 million for the six months ending 30 June 2021. These results show the Group on its way to recovery, following the impact of the Group's performance, which had caused the Group to withstand a loss before tax of USD15.2 million in the prior year period.
The Group's net operating revenues decreased by 16% from USD19.2 million. Net interest income dropped by 23% to USD12.7 million, as central banks continue to maintain low interest rate policies, designed to counter the COVID-19 pandemic impact, especially in the U.S. and the Eurozone, which impact the Group's principal currencies. In addition, interest and risk-free instruments, which are held by the Group to preserve adequate levels of liquidity, remain negative. Net fees and commission rose by 18% to USD5.8 million, as the Group recorded new transactions and business volumes picked up. Results from trading assets and other financial instruments improved significantly to reach a net gain of USD1.7 million, compared to a net loss of USD3.4 million in H1 2020. Effects from foreign exchange rate movements and other operating income were essentially flat year on year. The Group received USD1.1 million of dividends from its investment in an unlisted sub-fund, compared to USD0.2 million in same period last year.
Operating expenses for the six months under review stood at USD20.8 million, up by 12% from same period last year.
Driven by an improving credit environment, the Group released USD0.9 million of net provision for the year. Compared to net impairment losses of USD15.9 million in the prior year period, which was subjected to a number of COVID-19 related impairment events. On the performing Stage 2 exposures, USD2.3 million of provisions were released, on the basis of lower expected credit losses and improving macro-economic indicators. In comparment charge of USD 0.6 million as at June 2020. The low number of impairment events facilitated the Group to increase its Stage 3 provisions by only USD1.0 million for the period under review, a drop of USD13.5 million from prior year period. Write-offs at USD1.5 million were flat year on year and recoveries at USD1.0 million were USD0.6 million higher than same period last year.
Provisions for tax for all group entities for the ending 30 June 2021.3 million. During the same period last year, the Group provided for USD1.4 million of tax and wrote-off USD2.8 million of deferred taxes due to the impact of the recoverability of tax losses which had a finite expiry.
At 30 June 2021, total consolidated assets at USD1.86 billion marginally increased by USD21 million (1%) from end-2020. There has been a shift in the asset mix, in particular in treasury balances with the Central Bank of Malta dropped by USD114 million whilst treasury bills and deposits with banks increased by USD68 million respectively. Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income rose by USD14 million. As the pandemic pushed through the Group continued to maintain a level of liquidity significantly above the regulatory minima, as a safety measure against potential shocks which could have resulted from the global disruption caused by the commercial side, trading assets increased by USD26 million, whereas loans to customers shrank by USD9 million.
Total consolidated liabilities as at 30 June 2021.62 billion, a marginal increase of 1% over the USD1.60 billion reported at end-2020. Amount due to customers and debt securities in issue dropped by USD95 million respectively. Whereas anount due to banks rose by USD130 million.
As at financial reporting date the Group had USD231 million of total equity (31 December 2020: USD23 million drop related mainly to a downward valuation of financial assets held at fair value through OCl recorded in the fair value reserve.
At the end of the June 2021, the Group's CET1 and CAR ratios were both at 18.4% (31 December 2020: 18.5%), 87 basis points above the regulatory requirement which includes the impact of an additional capital charge under the SREP Pillar II requirement set by MFSA.
Meanwhile, the world continues to cope with the pandemic impact. With improving vacination rates, countries appear to be on their way towards finding a new norm in a post-pandemic world, still marked by the COVD-19 virus. While we expect a gradual economic recovery, given the deep damage inflicted on the fabric of the recovery is unlikely to be 'V-shaped'.
Following Malta's positive assessment by MoneyVal, the recent decision Task Force to 'qreylist' the jurisdiction was unexpected. In preparation for such an outcomed its attention on measures designed to mitigate the subsequent risks and potential impact. The primary areas of concern were and contingency action plans were prepared. A prolongation of the 'greylisting' status could however lead to longer term implications. Although thus not had any significant impact, it may be too early to assess all potential repercussions. The Group will therefore continue to monitor developments, while remaining well prepared to execute action plans in a timely manner.
During the rest of 2021, the Group will continue to focus on its key objectives, as set out in the long-range plan, which encapsulates the corporate strategy designed to achieve performance in a sustainable and resilient manner with the goal of delivering long-term value. The focus on the banking fundamentals will remain alongside the utilisation of apital, on the principles of risk-adjusted returns. We will continue to effectively manage our cost base while prioritising investment in order to improve corporate, risk management and compliance functions. The Bank will be giving priority to simplifying a range of operational and business designs, with the objective of removing complexity on various levels across the organisation to deploy lasting improvements. Building on the recovery success of the first half of the year, the Bank will pursue further decreases in the non-performing asset portfolio.
With its highly skilled talent pool across multiple dictions, continued investments in IT infrastructure and the support of a solid shareholder base, FIMBank is well-positioned to continue progressing towards the achievement of its strategic objectives in a steady, sustainable manner. During these complex times, the Bank will endeavour to remain close to all of its partners around the world and will strive to maintain high customer service levels.

For the six months ended 30 June 2021
FIMBank p.l.c. ("the Bank") is a credit institution domiciled in Malta with its registered address at Mercury Tower, The Exchange Financial and Business Centre, Elia Zammit Street, St. Julian's, STJ3155, Malta. The CondensedInterim Financial Statements of the Bank as at and for the six months ended 30 June 2021 include the Bank and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the "Group" and individually as "Group Entities").
The financial statements of the Group as at, and for the year ended, 31 December 2020 are available upon request from the Bank's registered office and are available for viewing on its website at www.fimbank.com.
The Condensed Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as adopted by the EU. The Condensed Interim Financial Statements do not include all the information required for the Annual Reports and Financial Statements and therim Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report and Financial Statements 2020 of FIMBank p.l.c.
On 11 March 2020, the World Health Organisation declared that the novel Coronavirus ("COVID-19") could be characterized as a pandemic. The impact of the outbreak has been widespread across the globe and has distressed many countries including those markets where the Group operates. Although the finance has been significantly impacted by the pandemic and although there is still a high degree of uncertainty and risk associated with the plobal economic forecasts, the Board of Directors confirm that, at the time of approving these Condensed Interim Financial Statements, the Group is capable of continuing to operate as a going concern for the foreseeable future.
In preparing these Financial Statements, consideration has also been given to the Public Statement ESMA 32-63-1041, issued by the European Securities and Markets Authority on 28 October 2020, which promotes transparency and consistent of European requirements for information provided in the annual financial reports of listed companies under the current circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Condensed Interim Financial Statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 12 Auqust 2021.
The preparation of the Condensed Interim 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.
In preparing these condensed interim financial statements made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation were the same as those applied to the financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2020.
In prepaing these Financial Statements, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Group's Accounting Policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty are still being impacted by the volatility resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Such impact on specific areas of significant judgement is separately disclosed in Notes 18 and 19 of these Financial Statements.
The accounting policies applied in these Condensed Interim Financial Statements are the same as those applied in the Group's Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2020.
A number of new standards and amendments to standards are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 January 2022 and earlier application is permitted. However, the Group has not early adopted any of the forthcoming new or amended standards in preparing these Condensed Interim Financial Statements.
The following amendments to standards were effective from 1 January 2021 but did not have a material effect on the Group's financial statements.
(i) Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16: Interest Rate Benchmark Reform Phase 2.
A fundamental reform of major interest rate beng undertaken globally to replace and reform interbank offered rates ('IBOR') with alternative nearly risk-free rates (RFR), referred to as 'IBOR reform'.
The Group is following three major milestones:
The Group will use risk-free rates as calculated by external trusted providers. All new risk-free rates will have forward-looking term rates and if not available backward-looking term rates. EURIBOR, which also has forward looking nature, may continue to be used in new and legacy contracts, as long as the ECB will only publish backward-looking term rates for €STR (Euro short-term rate).
The Group has engaged external consultan impact assessment and provide strategic recommendations and best practice solutions on the implementation of this reform. The Group has appointed an IBOR Conversion Steering Committee to manage its transition to alternative rates, which is being led by the treasury function. The IBOR Conversion team is addressing any queries or issues clients may encounter in response to these developments. The team is also dedicated to ensures are appropriately and smoothly transitioned, and that fallback language is updated in anticipation of all deadlines, where necessary. From a commercial perspective, the Group will focus on developing and issuing new products and facilities based on alternative reference rates, while remediating existing IBOR-based transactions. The Group is therefore well prepared for the cessation of IBOR and is reasition process.
With respect to loans, whilst the absolute majority have floating rates linked to IBOR, these have before the end of 2021. At the present time, no fall-back provisions have been contracted for when BOR ceases to exist. The majority of the Bank's financial liabilities are linked to fixed rates of interest that do not depend on IBOR.
With respect to derivative instruments, the Bank holds such positions for risk management purposes only. The Bank did not designate any derivatives as hedging instruments in cash flow hedges.
The Group identified five significant reportable segments (trade finance, forfaiting, factoring, real estate and treasury) which are represented by different Group entities, For each of the entities, executive management reports on a monthly basis.
During the period under review there have been no changes to the classification or measurement of operating segments as a result of COVID-19. The financial position and performance of the different operating segments was impacted depending on the macro-economic environment of the respective business.

The Group has an established control framework with respect to the measurement of fair values. This framework includes reports to the Group's Chief Financial Officer and executive management having overseing all significant fair value measurements, including Level 3 fair values. Market risk and related exposure to fair value movement is also a key function of the Group's Assets-Liabilities Committee and all valuations of financial instruments are review and approval. Significant valuation issues are reported to the Group's Audit Committee.
The Group measures fair values of an asset or liability using fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements:
Level 1: inputs that are quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). This category includes assets or liabilities valued market prices in active markets for similar instruments; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are considered less than active; or other valuation techniques in which all significant inputs are directly or indirectly observable from market data.
Level 3: inputs that are unobservable. This category includes all assets or liabilities for which the valuation technique includes inputs not based on observable data and the unobservable inputs have a significant effect on the instrument's valuation. This category also includes assets or liabilities that are valued based on quoted prices for which significant unobservable adjustments or assumptions are required to reflect differences between the instruments.
Valuation techniques include net present value and discounted cash flow models, comparison to similar instruments for which market observable prices exist, and other valuation models. Assumptions and inputs used in valuation techniques include risk-free and benchmark interest rates, credit spremia used in estimating discount rates, bond and equity prices, foreign currency exchange rates, and expected price volatilities and correlations.
The objective of valuation techniques is to arive at a fair value measurement that reflects the price that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The Group uses widely recognised valuation models for determining the fair value of common and more simple financial instruments, like interest rate and currency swaps that use only observable little management judgement and estimation. Observable prices and model in the market for listed debt securities and exchange traded derivatives and simple over-the-counter derivatives like currency rate swaps. Availability of observable market prices and model inputs reduces the need for management judgement and estimation and, also reduces the uncertainty associated with determination of fair values. Availability of observable market prices and inputs varies depending on the products and is prone to changes based on specific events and general conditions in the financial markets.
For more complex instruments, the Group uses proprietary valuation models, which are usually developed from recognised valuation models. Some or all of the significant inputs into these models may not be observable in the market prices or rates or are estimated based on assumptions. Example of instruments involving significant unobservable inputs include certain overthe-counter structured derivatives and securities for which there is no active market. Valuation models that employ significant unobservable inputs require a higher degree of management and estimation in the determination of fair value. Management judgement and estimation are usually required for selection of the apropriate valuation model to be used, determination of expected future cash flows on the financial instrument being valued, determination of probability of counterparty default and prepayments and selection of appropriate discount rates.
Fair value estimates obtained from models are adjusted for any other factors, such as liquidity risk or model uncertainties, to the extent that the Group believes that a third-party market participant would take them into a transaction. Fair values reflect the credit risk of the instrument and include adjustments to take account of the Group entity and the counterparty where appropriate.

The below sets out information about significant unobservable inputs used at 30 June 2021 in measuring financial instruments categorised as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
The 'trading assets' portfolio represent forfaiting assets, that is the discounting of receivables generated from an a without recourse basis. The assets would be evidenced by a number of different debt instruments including bills of exchange, promissory notes, letters of credit and trade or project related syndicated and bi-lateral loan (financing) agreements.
The Group establishes fair value of its trading a valuation technique based on the discounted expected future principal and interest cash flows. The discount rate is an estimate based on current expected credit margin spreads and interest rates at the reporting date. Inputs to valuation technique reasonably represent market expectation and measures of risk-return factors in the financial instrument.
The Group uses the LIBOR yield curve as of each reporting date plus an adequate credit margin spread to discount the trading assets held. At 30 June 2021, the interest rates used range between 1.90% and 10.27% (31 December 2020: between 2.06% and 10.27%).
The effect of an estimated general increase of one percentage point in interest rate on trading assets at 30 June 2021 would reduce the Group's profit before tax by approximately USD3,924,212 (31 December 2020: USD1,115,543).
'Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss' mainly represent holdings in three funds as follows:
• an unlisted sub-fund of a local collective investment scheme regulated by the MFSA, which is independently run by an investment manager licensed and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority in London. The sub-fund invests in sustainable energy plants with returns generated throughout the life of each plant.
The fair value is measured by the Group based on periodical net asset valuations prepared by the scheme's independent administrator. The sub-fund's assets are marked to fair marked at observable traded prices where that is possible. Where there is no observable price, the assets are market practice. This may involve the use of models and forward projections. Inputs and assumptions used in these models may be subjective and could include a number of highly judgemental uncertainties including the projected valuations of the individual plants and the future potential income from each plant.
The effect of a ten-percentage point increase/decrease) in the net asset value of the sub-fund at 30 June 2021 would increase/(decrease) the Bank and Group equity by approximately USD1,782,395 (31 December 2020: USD1,851,723).
• an unlisted sub-fund of a local collective investment scheme regulated by the MFSA, which is independently run by an investment manager licensed and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority in UK. The sub-fund investments, with relativity complex structures and limited liquidity.
The fair value is measured by the Group based on periodical net asset valuations prepared by the scheme's independent administrator. The sub-fund's assets are marked to fair marked at observable traded prices where that is possible. Where there is no observable price, the assets value is determined in accordance with best market practice. This may involve the use of models and forward projections. Inputs and assumptions used in these models may be subjective and could include a number of highly judgemental uncertainties including the projected valuations of the individual assets and the future potential income from each asset.
The effect of a ten-percentage point increase/(decrease) in the net asset value of the sub-fund at 30 June 2021 would increase/(decrease) the Bank and Group equity by approximately USD177,262 (31 December 2020: USD181,502).

At each reporting date, the Bank carries out an impairment assessment to deter, the recoverable amounts of its investments in subsidiaries (at cost) in its separate financial statements are less than their carrying amount, therefore requiring an impairment loss.
The Group carried out an assessment to detect any indication of impairment that might have existed as at 30 June 2021. This assessment was performed as an update of the test carried out in December 2020 and was carried out on the underlying performance of each subsidiary during this period.
The assessment involved a retrospective analysis to the assumptions and projections used for the assessment carried out in December 2020. Where deviations are identified the Group updates the assumptions and projections to reflect the current conditions. Based on this assessment, it was determined that at recoverable amount of each subsidiary was higher than the carrying amount in the financial statements and therefore is no indication of an impairment loss (December 2020). USD9,314,000).
The key assumptions described above may change as economic, political and market conditions change. Whilst the recoverable amount is higher than the carrying anount, any significant adverse movement in a key assumption would lead to an impairment in subsidiary.
As disclosed in Note 12, the Group has carried out an assessment to detect any indication of impairment in subsidiaries that might have existed as at 30 June 2021. The same ased to determine any indication of indication of impairment on the goodwill recognised for India Factoring and Egypt Factors.
Based on this assessment, the recoverable amount was determined to be higher than the carrying amount of the cash generating unit. Hence, at reporting date the carrying amount of goodwill was deemed to be supported and there is no indication of an impairment loss (December 2020: USD2,687,000).
'Debt securities in issue' comprise of promissory notes. At 30 June 2021 and 31 December 2020 promissory notes in issue had a tenor of up to one year. The Group's effective interest rate ranges between 1.00% and 1.70% (31 December 2020: 1.00% and 1.75%).
'Contingent liabilities' comprise of guarantee obligations incurred on behalf of third parties. Guarantees issued to subsidiaries amount to USD36,188,802 (31 December 2020: USD42,749,228).

In light of the spread of COVID-19 across the globe, the Group has assessed the impact of the outbreak on the credit risk over the expected life of its financial assets.
In measuring expected credit losses ("ECL"), the Group relies on risk and modelling techniques provided by Moody's Analytics – a global firm specialising in areas of credit risk analysis, economic and regulatory capital calculation, economic research and other areas intrinsically linked to the ECL model.
The model used for this review period was based on three possible scenarios covering a wide range of possible outcomes. Each scenario assumed different epidemiological and economic circumstances, restrictive measures to combat the virus spread and different use of monetary and fiscal policies. Scenarios and assumptions vary from one country to another, with each country having different levels of:
The economic scenarios with COVID-19 impact for the top five geographies used as at 30 June 2021 included the following key indicators for the years 2022 to 2026.

To the Board of Directors of FIMBank p.l.c.
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed interim financial statements of FIMBank p.l.c. (the Bank') and of the Group of which the Bank is the parent (the Condensed Interim Financial Statements of financial position as at 30 June 2021, and the related condensed statements of profit or loss, other comprehensive in equity and cash flows for the period then ended and notes to the condensed interim financial statement is responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Condensed Interim Financial Statements in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as adopted by the EU. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these interim financial statements based on our review.
This report is made solely to the Board of Directors in accordance with the terms of our engagement and is released for publication in compliance with the requirements of Listing Rule 5.75.4 issued by the Listing Authority. Our review has been undertaken so that we might state to the Board of Directors those matters we are required to it in this report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Board of Directors for this report, or for the conclusions we have expressed.
We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review of interim financial statements consists of marily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that the accompanying Condensed Interim Financial Statements for the period ended 30 June 2021 are not prepared, in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as adopted by the EU.
The Principal authorised to sign on behalf of KPMG on the review resulting in this independent auditors' report is Noel Mizzi.
