FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021 TOGETHER WITH INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Board of Directors of Aksigorta A.Ş.

Report on the audit of the financial statements

Our opinion

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Aksigorta A.Ş. ("the Company") as at 31 December 2021, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS").

What we have audited

The Company's financial statements comprise:

  • the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2021;
  • the statement of income for the year then ended;
  • the statement of comprehensive income for the year then ended;
  • the statement of changes in equity for the year then ended;
  • the statement of cash flows for the year then ended; and
  • the notes to the financial statements, which include a summary of significant accounting policies.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing ("ISAs"). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Independence

We are independent of the Company in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants' Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants ("IESBA Code") and "Independence Audit by-Law" published by the Public Oversight Accounting and Auditing Standards Authority ("POA") and independent auditing requirements referred to in Article 400 of the Turkish Commercial Code ("TCC") (collectively referred to as "Turkish Local Independence Rules"). We have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with IESBA Code and Turkish Local Independence Rules.

Our audit approach

As part of designing our audit, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material misstatement in the financial statements. In particular, we considered where management made subjective judgements; for example, in respect of significant accounting estimates that involved making assumptions and considering future events that are inherently uncertain. As in all of our audits, we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including among other matters, consideration of whether there was evidence of bias that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.

We tailored the scope of our audit in order to perform sufficient work to enable us to provide an opinion on the financial statements as a whole, taking into account the structure of the Company, the accounting processes and controls, and industry in which the Company operates.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Key How our audit addressed the key audit
audit matter matter
Estimation of incurred but not reportedclaims provision
As explained in Notes 2.16 and 17 to theaccompanying financial statements, the Companyhas gross insurance liabilities ofTL 8,721 million representing 74% of theCompany's total equity and liabilities as of31 December 2021. Concerning the estimation ofprovision for incurred but not reported claimswhich amounted to gross TL 1,987 million as of 31December 2021, the Company uses actuarialmethods. The choice of selected methods anddevelopment factors for each accident year foreach class of business depends on the bestestimate of the Company. We tested the design and operational effectivenessof the key controls implemented by the Company'smanagement in relation to the ultimate claimsused in the calculation of the provision forincurred but not reported claims. We performedreconciliation of the data used in the calculation ofincurred but not reported claims for selectedbranches with the accompanying financialstatements. Our actuaries have assessed theestimated loss ratios and expected damagedevelopments trends together with the selectedactuarial techniques considering past damageexperiences and sector developments. In addition,for selected branches, we made an estimation of

and the significant actuarial judgments and We checked the adequacy and accuracy of the

in the financial statements. statements related to such provision.

Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the financial statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with IFRS, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.
  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
  • Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The Company maintains its books of account and prepares its statutory financial statements in Turkish Lira ("TL") in accordance with the Insurance Law numbered 5684 and the regulations issued for insurance and reinsurance companies by the Ministry of Treasury and Finance which is also the functional currency of the Company. These financial statements are based on the statutory records, with adjustments and reclassifications, for the purpose of fair presentation in accordance with IFRS.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the use of estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgements in the process of applying the Company's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to financial statements are disclosed Note 3.

2.2 Adoption of New and Revised Standards (Continued)

i) Standards, amendments and interpretations applicable as at December 31, 2021:

The company has evaluated the effects of the standards and amendments mentioned below on the financial statements and has come to the opinion that the amendments do not have a significant effect on the financial statements for the accounting period of 1 January - 31 December 2021.

  • Amendments to IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 Interest Rate Benchmark Reform Phase 2; effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2021. The Phase 2 amendments address issues that arise from the implementation of the reforms, including the replacement of one benchmark with an alternative one. The Phase 2 amendments provide additional temporary reliefs from applying specific IAS 39 and IFRS 9 hedge accounting requirements to hedging relationships directly affected by IBOR reform.
  • Amendments to IFRS 4 Insurance Contracts deferral of IFRS 9; effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023. These amendments defer the date of application of IFRS 17 by two years to 1 January 2023 and change the fixed date of the temporary exemption in IFRS 4 from applying IFRS 9, Financial instrument until 1 January 2023.

ii) Standards, amendments and interpretations that are issued but not effective as at December 31, 2021:

The company has evaluated the changes in the standards mentioned below that have been published but not yet effective and has started working on the TFRS 17 standard and its effects. The company management concluded that except for the TFRS 17 standard, the amendments below will not have a significant impact on the financial statements.

  • Amendment to IFRS 16, 'Leases' Covid-19 related rent concessions Extension of the Practical expedient; as of March 2021, this amendment extended till June 2022 and effective from 1 April 2021.As a result of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, rent concessions have been granted to lessees. Such concessions might take a variety of forms, including payment holidays and deferral of lease payments. On 28 May 2020, the IASB published an amendment to IFRS 16 that provides an optional practical expedient for lessees from assessing whether a rent concession related to COVID-19 is a lease modification. Lessees can elect to account for such rent concessions in the same way as they would if they were not lease modifications. In many cases, this will result in accounting for the concession as variable lease payments in the period(s) in which the event or condition that triggers the reduced payment occurs.
  • IFRS 17, 'Insurance contracts'; effective from annual periods beginning on or after January 1,2023. This standard replaces IFRS 4, which currently permits a wide variety of practices in accounting for insurance contracts. IFRS 17 will fundamentally change the accounting by all entities that issue insurance contracts and investment contracts with discretionary participation features.
  • Amendments to IAS 1, Presentation of financial statements' on classification of liabilities; effective date deferred until accounting periods starting not earlier than 1 January 2024. These narrow-scope amendments to IAS 1, 'Presentation of financial statements', clarify that liabilities are classified as either current or non-current, depending on the rights that exist at the end of the reporting period. Classification is unaffected by the expectations of the entity or events after the reporting date (for example, the receipt of a waiver or a breach of covenant). The amendment also clarifies what IAS 1 means when it refers to the 'settlement' of a liability.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT DECEMBER 31, 2021 (Amounts expressed in Turkish Lira ("TL") unless otherwise indicated.)

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

2.2 Adoption of New and Revised Standards (Continued)

  • A number of narrow-scope amendments to IFRS 3, IAS 16, IAS 37 and some annual improvements on IFRS 1, IFRS 9, IAS 41 and IFRS 16; effective from Annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022.
    • o Amendments to IFRS 3, 'Business combinations' update a reference in IFRS 3 to the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting without changing the accounting requirements for business combinations. .
    • o Amendments to IAS 16, 'Property, plant and equipment' prohibit a company from deducting from the cost of property, plant and equipment amounts received from selling items produced while the company is preparing the asset for its intended use. Instead, a company will recognise such sales proceeds and related cost in profit or loss.
    • o Amendments to IAS 37, 'Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets' specify which costs a company includes when assessing whether a contract will be loss-making.

Annual improvements make minor amendments to IFRS 1, 'First-time Adoption of IFRS', IFRS 9, 'Financial instruments', IAS 41, 'Agriculture' and the Illustrative Examples accompanying IFRS 16, 'Leases'.

  • Narrow scope amendments to IAS 1, Practice statement 2 and IAS 8; effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023. The amendments aim to improve accounting policy disclosures and to help users of the financial statements to distinguish between changes in accounting estimates and changes in accounting policies.
  • ●Amendment to IAS 12 - Deferred tax related to assets and liabilities arising from a single transaction; from annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023. These amendments require companies to recognise deferred tax on transactions that, on initial recognition give rise to equal amounts of taxable and deductible temporary differences.

2.3 Consolidation

The Company has no subsidiaries or joint ventures within the scope of consolidation in accordance with "IFRS 10- Consolidated Financial Statements" as of December 31, 2021 (December 31, 2020: None).

2.4 Segment Reporting

Reporting segments are determined to conform to the reporting made to the Company's chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker is responsible for making decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance. Details related to the segment reporting are disclosed in the Note 5.

2.5 Foreign currency translation

The functional currency of the Company is TL. 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 the period end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the income statement.

(Amounts expressed in Turkish Lira ("TL") unless otherwise indicated.)

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

2.5 Foreign currency translation (Continued)

Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated to Turkish Lira at the rates prevailing on the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.

Changes in the fair value of monetary securities denominated in foreign currency classified as available for sale are analysed between translation differences resulting from changes in the amortised cost of the security and other changes in the carrying amount of the security. Translation differences related to changes in amortised cost are recognised in profit or loss, and other changes in carrying amount are recognised in equity.

Foreign exchange differences arising from the translation of non monetary financial assets and liabilities are considered as part of the fair value changes and those differences are accounted for in the accounts in which the fair value changes are accounted for.

Foreign currency assets and liabilities are converted by using period end exchange rates of Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey's bid rates. For the conversion of liabilities the exchange rate stated at the contract is used.

The Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey exchange rates used in the conversion is as follows:

December 31, 2021 December 31, 2020
USD/TL EUR/TL USD/TL EUR/TL
Bid Rates 13.3290 15.0867 7.3405 9.0079
Ask Rates 13.3731 15.1365 7.3647 9.0376

2.6 Tangible Assets

All property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Since lands have infinite life, they are not depreciated. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the tangible assets. For assets that are not ready for use or sale, such assets are depreciated, on the same basis used for other fixed assets, when they are ready to use.

Estimated useful life, residual value, and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis. If there are indicators of impairment on tangible assets, a review is made in order to determine possible impairment and as a result of the review, if an asset's carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount, the asset's carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount by accounting for a provision for impairment. Gains and losses on disposals of property and equipment are included in other operational income and expenses accounts.

Assets acquired under finance lease are depreciated as the same basis as tangible assets or, where shorter, the term of the relevant lease.

Gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of tangible assets is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized to profit or loss.

(Amounts expressed in Turkish Lira ("TL") unless otherwise indicated.)

2.6 Tangible Assets (Continued)

Depreciation periods for tangible assets are presented in the table below:

Useful Life
Properties 50 years
Furniture and fixtures 10 years
Motor vehicles 5 years
Leasehold Improvements 5 years

Right of Use Asset

Right-of-use asset is accounted for initially using the cost method and is measured at its cost adjusted for the re-measurement of the lease liability and less any accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. The Company applies the depreciation provisions in the TAS 16 Tangible Fixed Assets standard while depreciating the right of use asset.

Lease Liability

On adaption of IFRS 16, the Company recognized lease liabilities in relation to leases which had previously been classified as "operating leases" under the principle of IAS 17 Leases. These liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the lessee's incremental borrowing rate as of the starting date of the lease agreements. The weighted average lessee's incremental borrowing rate applied to the lease liabilities on December 31, 2021 was 20% for local currency liabilities (December 31, 2020: 20%).

2.7 Investment properties

The buildings and lands of the Company held for the purpose of receiving rent or an increase in value or both instead of being used in the operations of the Company or being sold within the normal business course are classified as investment properties. The investment properties are carried at acquisition cost by deducting the accumulated depreciation. Investment properties are amortized by the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. If there are indicators of impairment on investment properties, a review is made in order to determine possible impairment and as a result of this review, if the property's carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount, the property's carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount by accounting for an impairment provision. The recoverable amount is the higher of the future cash inflows from the existing use of the investment property and the fair value of the property after cost of sale.

Investment properties are derecognized when either they have been disposed of or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from its disposal. Any gains or losses on the retirement or disposal of an investment property are recognized in profit or loss in the period of retirement or disposal (Note 8).

2.8 Intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired

Intangible assets acquired are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization is charged on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Estimated useful life and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.

2.8 Intangible assets (Continued)

Computer software

Acquired computer software licenses are capitalized on the basis of the costs incurred from the date of acquisition to the date to bring the specific software in use. These costs are amortized over their estimated useful lives (1 to 10 years). Costs associated with developing or maintaining computer software programs are recognized as expense as incurred. Costs that are directly associated with the development of identifiable and unique software products that are controlled by the Company and will probably provide more economic benefits than costs in one year are recognized as intangible assets. Costs include software development employee costs and an appropriate portion of relevant overheads. Computer software development costs recognized as assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives.

5 years

2.9 Financial assets

The Company classifies and accounts for its financial assets as, "Available-for-sale financial assets", "Held to maturity financial assets", "Held for trading" and "Loans and receivables (Premium receivables)". Premium receivables are the receivables arising from insurance agreements and they are classified as financial assets in financial statements.

Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized on the "settlement date". The classification of these financial assets depends on the purpose for which they were acquired and the Company's management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.

Loans and receivables (Premium receivables)

Loans and receivables are financial assets which are generated by providing money or service to the debtor. Loans and receivables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at cost. Fees and other charges paid related to assets obtained as guarantee for the above mentioned receivables are not deemed as transaction costs and they are recognized as expense in the income statement.

The Company accounts for a provision for its receivables based on evaluations and estimations of the management. The mentioned provision is deducted from "Premium receivables" on the statement of financial position. The Company sets its estimations in accordance with the risk policies and the principle of prudence by considering the structure of current receivable portfolio, financial structure of policyholders and intermediaries, non-financial data and economical conditions.

Available-for-sale financial assets

Investments other than "financial assets at fair value through profit or loss", and "loans and receivables" are described as available-for-sale financial assets.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

2.9 Financial assets (Continued)

Available-for-sale financial assets (Continued)

Available-for-sale financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value after their recognition. It is considered that the fair value cannot be reliably measured if the price that provides a basis for fair value is not set in active market conditions and "amortized cost value" that is calculated using the effective interest method is used as fair value. Equity securities classified as available-for-sale are carried at fair values if they have quoted market prices in active markets and/or if their fair value can be reliably measured. The equity securities that do not have a quoted market price in an active market, and if their fair value cannot be reliably measured are carried at cost less the provision for impairment.

"Unrealized gains and losses" arising from the change in the fair value of available-for-sale financial assets is accounted for under "Valuation of Financial Assets" account in the shareholders' equity and not reflected in the income statement until the financial asset is sold, disposed or derecognized. The unrealized gains and losses arising from the change in the fair value is removed from shareholders' equity and recognized in the income statement when the financial assets mature or are derecognized. The Company assesses at each statement of financial position date whether there is objective evidence that an available-for-sale financial asset is impaired. In the case of equity investments classified as available-for-sale financial assets, such as, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered as impairment. If any objective evidence for impairment exists for available-for-sale financial assets, the difference between the acquisition cost and current fair value is deducted from shareholders' equity and recognized in the income statement. The impairment losses on available-for-sale equity instruments previously recognized in the profit or loss cannot be reversed through profit or loss.

Held to maturity financial assets

Held-to-maturity financial assets are intended to be held until their maturities and including ability to funding, provided the circumstances to be held to maturity, with fixed or determinable payments and with fixed maturity, and apart from loans and receivables, when recognized, not recognized as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and not available for sale financial assets. These financial assets, initially recognized at the acquisition cost and is considered fair value. The fair value of held-to-maturity financial assets is determined on transaction cost of these financial assets or market price of similar financial instruments. Held-to-maturity financial assets are carried at amortized cost. Contribution income related to held-to-maturity financial assets is reflected in the income statement.

The Company does not allocate any impairment on short-term market fluctuations, provided that there is no risk of collection of the securities representing the borrowings classified as held-to-maturity financial assets. If there is a risk of collection, the amount of the impairment is the difference between the book value of the financial asset and the value of the cash flows expected from the financial asset, if any, amortized based on the original effective rate of return.

Financial assets held for trading

Financial assets held for trading are valued at their fair values and gain/loss arising is recorded in profit or loss. Interest income earned on trading securities and the difference between their acquisition costs and fair values are recorded as interest income in the statement of income. In case of sales of such securities before their maturity, the gains/losses on such sales are recorded under trading income/losses.

(Amounts expressed in Turkish Lira ("TL") unless otherwise indicated.)

2.10 Reclassification of financial assets

Financial assets other than loans and receivables are permitted to be reclassified out of the held-fortrading 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.

2.16 Insurance and investment contracts

Insurance contracts are contracts under which, in exchange for a premium, the insurer assumes the obligation to compensate a loss caused by the materialization of the danger (risk) having the consequence of harming the interest, measurable by money, of the concerned person or make payment or to fulfill other performances linked to the lifetime of one or several persons or upon the occurrence of some events in the course of their life.

The insurer can take out reinsurance, under conditions as it thinks appropriate, in respect of the interest it had covered.

Insurance contracts are accounted when the insurance risk is transferred and classified as an insurance contract as of the maturity date and/or amortization of the all contractual rights and liabilities.

The main contracts produced by the Company are mainly in non-life branches such as motor own damage, motor third party liability, fire, marine, personal accident, engineering, health and agriculture insurance agreements.

The fire insurance agreements are classified as industrial and individual. The policyholder is insured for the physical losses and claims due to the risks such as fire, earthquake, bursting, flood. The policyholder is insured for losses caused by the complete or partial interruption of the operations as a result of an event covered by the insurance contract with loss of profit coverage. Casualty insurance contracts (Liability, Personal Accident and Motor) have two main purposes. These contracts protect the insured against the risk of damage of assets and against the risk of causing harm to third parties.

Marine insurance contracts contain insurance of transportation (vessels, or vehicles on land or air) and water vehicles (the payment for the claims occurred in sea, river and island vehicles). Engineering insurance contracts are subdivided into two groups. The contracts covering permanently installed risks for an indefinite period, and the contracts covering temporary, non-recurring risks. The first group consists of insurance protection against sudden and unforeseen damages or losses of the machines, mechanical equipment, plants and electronic equipments. The second group provides installation and construction insurance of which coverage is naturally limited with the guarantee period of installation and construction. Liability insurance contracts provide claims due to the air crafts, water crafts and land vehicles liability. Furthermore, the Company has major production of the animal life and publicly supported agriculture insurances which are included in general loss insurance contracts. Health insurance contracts are the contracts that pay benefits an insured who becomes ill or injured, provided that documentation is offered to confirm the illness or injury.

Unearned Premium Reserve

An unearned premium reserve is calculated on a daily basis for all policies in force as of the balance sheet date for unearned portions of premiums written, except for marine premiums. During the calculation of unearned portion of premiums written on a daily basis, it is supposed that the policies start at 12:00 noon and finish at 12:00 noon again. In accordance with the Regulation on Technical Reserves, unearned premium reserve and the reinsurers' share of the unearned premium reserve for policies issued after January 1, 2008, are calculated and accounted as the deferred portion of the accrued premiums related to the policies in force and ceded premiums to reinsurers without deducting commissions or any other deduction, on a daily and gross basis. The Company has continued to deduct the commissions from the premiums for the calculation of unearned premium reserve regarding the policies issued before January 1,2008. For marine policies with an uncertain end date, unearned premium reserve is calculated as 50% of the premiums written in the last three months.

2.16 Insurance and investment contracts (Continued)

Deferred Commission Expense and Income

Unearned portion of commissions paid to agencies for the written premiums and commissions received from reinsurers for the ceded premiums are recorded as in deferred acquisition costs on the statement of financial position, and as expenses for the acquisition of insurance contracts on a net basis in the income statement.

Liability Adequacy Test

At each end of the reporting period, liability adequacy tests are performed to ensure the adequacy of the contract liabilities net of related DAC assets. In performing these tests, current best estimates of future contractual cash flows and claims handling and administration expenses, 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). Long-term insurance contracts with fixed terms are measured based on assumptions set out at the inception of the contract. When the liability adequacy test requires the adoption of new best estimate assumptions, such assumptions (without margins for adverse deviation) are used for the subsequent measurement of these liabilities. Any DAC written off as a result of this test cannot subsequently be reinstated. At each statement of financial position date, liability adequacy tests are performed to ensure the adequacy of the contract liabilities. In performing these tests, current best estimates of future cash flows are used. The adequacy of the unearned premium liability is assessed by considering the portion of the estimated value of claims and expenses, likely to arise after the end of the reporting period from existing contracts, that exceeds the provision for unearned premiums after deduction of any acquisition costs. Any deficiency is immediately charged to profit or loss. The assessment, whether a deficiency exists is made at the Company level since all insurance products are regarded as being managed together and there are no constraints on the ability to use assets held in relation to each line of business to meet any of the associated liabilities. For the purpose of calculating the additional provisions, the Company takes into account the investment return expected to be earned by investments held. The Company accounts additional reserves for the branches that the combined loss ratio calculated is higher than 100%.

Outstanding claims provision

Claims are charged to income as incurred based on the estimated liability for compensation owed to contract holders or third parties damaged by the contract holders. They include settlement costs and arise from events that have occurred up to the statement of financial position date even if they have not yet been reported to the Company. Outstanding claims are estimated using the input of assessments for individual cases reported and statistical analyses. The expected ultimate cost of claims is also affected by external factors such as court decisions.

Claims are payable on a claims-occurrence basis. The Company is liable for all insured events that occurred during the term of the contract, even if the loss is discovered after the end of the contract term. There are several variables that affect the amount and timing of cash flows from these contracts. These mainly relate to the inherent risks of the business activities carried out by individual contract holders and the risk management procedures they adopted.

2.16 Insurance and investment contracts (Continued)

Outstanding claims provision (Continued)

For the estimation of the ultimate liability arising from claims made under insurance contracts, the Company uses Bornhuetter Ferguson ("BF"), Chain-Ladder and Frequency and Severity methods. The method for MTPL is based on frequency and severity method, for the rest of the branches are selected by applying weighted average incurred ultimate results of Chain-Ladder method and incurred or average of paid and incurred ultimate results of Bornhuetter Ferguson method are used for the estimation of ultimate liabilities. It involves the analysis of historical claim development factors based on historical pattern and also loss ratio is considered in BF method.

The appropriate development factors are then applied to cumulative claims data for each accident year that is not yet fully developed to produce an estimated ultimate claim cost for each accident year. The choice of selected factors for each accident year of each class of business depends on the best estimate of the Company. Considering the uncertainty about the amount and timing of claims, the Company made the estimation of claims development considering starting from the year of 2003 and a tail factor is used for some branches for future developments. The Company performs the ultimate liability estimation for large claims separately which are determined as large claims by using certain statistical methods since these claims have different claim development patterns. Additionally, the ultimate liability calculations are performed on gross basis and the net amounts are determined according to historical ceding rates on each accident quarter or applicable reinsurance treaties are applied to ultimate losses for each branch. A provision is calculated and accounted for unallocated loss adjustment expenses ("ULAE") refer to general overhead expenses associated with the claims-handling process, and particularly the costs of investigating, handling, paying, and resolving claims. The estimation for ULAE is calculated using the rate of historical expenses to total claim amounts. The methods which were selected by the Company for each branch, the results of related calculations as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the methods to calculate net of reinsurance results and the limits which are used for the big claims eliminations are disclosed in Note 17.

The discount rate used in calculations as of December 31, 2021 is 14% (December 31, 2020: 5% and December 31, 2019: 5%). Reserve discount resulted in TL 577,696,099 decrease in the net outstanding claims provision in period January 1 -December 31, 2021.

2.20 Current and deferred income tax

The Company is subject to Turkish corporate taxes. Provision is recognized in the accompanying financial statements for the estimated charge based on the Company's results for the years and periods. Corporate tax is applied on taxable corporate income, which is calculated from the statutory accounting profit by adding back non-deductible expenses, and by deducting dividends received from resident companies, other exempt income and investment incentives utilized.

In accordance with the regulation numbered 7316, published in Official Gazette on April 22, 2021, "Law on the Amendment of Some Tax Acts and Some Other Laws", corporate tax rate for the year 2021, 2022 has increased from %22 to %25 and %23 respectively, Therefore, deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2021 are calculated with 23% tax rate for the temporary differences which will be realized in 2022, and with 20% tax for those which will be realized after 2022 and onwards (December 31, 2020: In accordance with the regulation numbered 7061, published in Official Gazette on December 5, 2017, "Law on the Amendment of Some Tax Acts and Some Other Laws", corporate tax rate for the years 2018, 2019 and 2020 has increased from 20% to 22%. Therefore, deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2020 are calculated with 22% tax rate for the temporary differences which will be realized in 2018, 2019 and 2020, and with 20% tax for those which will be realized after 2021 and onwards).

Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realized, or the deferred income tax liability is settled. Deferred income tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.

2.21 Employee benefits

The Company accounts for its liability related to employment termination and vacation benefits according to "Turkish Accounting Standards Regarding Employee Benefits" ("IAS 19") and classifies in statement of financial position under the account "Provision of Employment Termination Benefits".

The provision for employment termination benefits is calculated over present value of the possible liability in scope with the Labor Law by considering determined actuarial estimates.

2.22 Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation as a result of a past event, and it is probable that the Company will be required to settle that obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognized as provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the statement of financial position date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. If provision amount is measured by the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount will be equal to the present value of such cash flows.

When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, the receivable is recognized as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received, and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.

(Amounts expressed in Turkish Lira ("TL") unless otherwise indicated.)

3. Critical accounting estimates and judgements

Preparation of financial statements requires the use of estimations and assumptions which may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the statement of financial position date and reported amounts of income and expenses during the financial period. Accounting estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under current circumstances. Although the estimations and assumptions are based on the best knowledge of the management for existing events and operations, they may differ from the actual results.

The estimation of the ultimate liability for technical expenses that can be incurred for the existing insurance contracts is one of the most critical accounting estimates. Estimation of the insurance liabilities, by nature, includes the evaluation of several uncertainties.

Within this scope, the Company has tested the financial assets, tangible and intangible assets for a possible impairment and no impairments were identified. The Company has also tested the assumptions for the measurement of insurance liabilities.

(Amounts expressed in Turkish Lira ("TL") unless otherwise indicated.)

4. Management of insurance and financial risk

Insurance risk

Insurance risk is the probability of risk exposure that is covered under any insurance contracts and the uncertainty of the magnitude of the claims in relation to the risk exposed. Due to the nature of insurance transactions, risks are incidental and hard to anticipate. Maximum risk that the Company bears is limited to the coverage amount specified in the insurance contract.

The Company has adopted central risk assessment policy and this policy is applied in relation to the Company's specified operations and limitations. On principle, in risk assessment, potential claims are measured based on the past experience, similar risk comparisons and risks in relation to production process. Location, geographical area, field of activity and fire and theft measures are also key issues used in the assessment of the insured risk.

The Company's gross insurance guarantees given to insurees are summarized as below:

December 31, 2021 December 31, 2020

Fair value of the financial assets

Fair value is the amount for which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability settled between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm's length transaction in accordance with market conditions.

The Company determines the estimated fair value of its financial instruments by using the current market information and appropriate valuation methods. Additionally, ability to estimate the market values through assessing the market information requires interpretation and judgment. As a result, the estimations presented herein cannot be an indicator of the amounts obtained by the Company in a current market transaction.

Fair Value Hierarchy

Fair value is the amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation, and is best evidenced by a quoted market price, if one exists. Fair value measurements are performed in accordance with the following fair value measurement hierarchy.

  • Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1),
  • Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices) (Level 2),
  • Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs) (Level 3).

(Amounts expressed in Turkish Lira ("TL") unless otherwise indicated.)

20. Provision for retirement benefit obligation (Continued)

Under the terms of Turkish Labor Law, the Company is required to pay employment termination benefits to each employee who has qualified for such payment. Also, employees are entitled to retirement pay provisions subsequent to the completion of their retirement period by gaining a right to receive retirement payments in accordance with the amended Article 60 of the applicable Social Insurance Law No: 506 and the related Decrees No: 2422 and 4447 issued on March 6,1981 and August 25, 1999, respectively. Some transitional provisions related to pre-retirement service term was excluded from the law since the related law was amended as of May 23, 2002.

Employee termination benefits provisions are legally not a subject of funding. The provision has been calculated by estimating the present value of the future probable obligation of the Company arising from the retirement of employees. IAS 19 ("Employee Benefits") requires actuarial valuation methods to be developed to estimate the enterprise's obligation under defined benefit plans. Accordingly, the following actuarial assumptions were used in the calculation of the total liability:

The principal assumption is that the maximum liability for each year of service will increase parallel with inflation. Thus, the discount rate applied represents the expected real rate after adjusting for the anticipated effects of future inflation. Consequently, in the accompanying financial statements as at December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the provision has been calculated by estimating the present value of the future probable obligation of the Company arising from the retirement of the employees. As of December 31, 2021, the provisions at the respective balance sheet dates have been calculated assuming an annual inflation rate of 12.10% (December 31, 2020: 15.40%) and a discount rate of 14% (December 31, 2020: 11.70%), resulting in a real interest rate of 4% (December 31, 2020: 4%). The anticipated rate of forfeitures is considered, and estimated rate of the Company's retirement pay is also taken into account.

However, during this estimation, the employee termination benefits mentioned in subparagraph 5 of paragraph 1 of article 14 of the Labor Law numbered 1475 to be made in accordance with other conditions excluding the ages stipulated in clauses (a) and (b) of subparagraph A of paragraph one of article 60 of the Law numbered 506 or due to termination of employees on their own will after having completed the insurance period required for retirement pension (15 years) and the number of premium payment days (3600 days) have been excluded from the payments to be incurred by the Company.

As the maximum liability is updated semi-annually, the maximum amount of TL 10,597 effective from January 1, 2022 has been taken into consideration in calculation of provision from employment termination benefits (As of January 1, 2021, the ceiling on severance pay is TL 7,639 per month). Movement of employee termination benefits provisions are presented in the statement below:

2021 2020
Opening balance, January 1 9,095,078 7,052,711
