Sava Insurance Group and

Dear Shareholders, Business Partners and Employees,

The flexibility and responsiveness to the needs and expectations of our clients that enabled the Sava Insurance Group to adapt its business to the challenging conditions at the onset of the pandemic also bore fruit in 2021. For yet another year, despite the still-challenging circumstances, we successfully and resolutely followed our mission and vision, pursuing the goals we had set for this strategic period.

Customer satisfaction and customer relations are central in our strategic plan and inform the business decisions we adopt based on it. The Sava Insurance Group companies provide a full range of financial services, from non-life, life, and supplementary pension insurance to asset management, and health and assistance services. Through the slogan "Among good people", we communicate their increasingly stronger collaboration and, more importantly, our customer-centric orientation as our overarching value and key advantage.

Record profit and a 15.8% return on equity

With operating revenue increasing to EUR 733 million, also owing to the growing contribution of the Group's non-insurance companies, the improving quality of our portfolio, favourable claims experience, cost containment and exceeding return on investment, the Group generated a record net profit of EUR 76 million in 2021, which is substantially higher than the previous year and far more

than we planned. As a result, we achieved a 15.8% return on equity, which is more than four percentage points above the plan.

Excellent results were achieved across all operating segments, which continue to build our business through customer centricity, digitalisation and the overhaul of our IT systems. In 2021, we continued to develop multi-channel communication, upgraded our portal and mobile solutions, strengthened our cooperation with banks, promoted internet sales, and introduced paperless business communication. We developed new micromobility, assistance and health products, adapted our bancassurance products for our partner banks' customers, and expanded the services we offer for small- and medium-sized enterprises. With the introduction of advanced technologies in various work processes, we continue to develop and integrate predictive analytics and artificial intelligence. Non-life insurance remains the strongest pillar of our Group, and with the full-year integration of Vita's business, life insurance further consolidated its position as the second-largest operating segment. Reinsurance activities were aimed at ensuring quality growth while taking into account the situation in individual markets and striving to further diversify the portfolio. Through growth in new premium contributions and favourable trends in financial markets, we generated excellent results in pensions and asset management, which is becoming an increasingly important

operating segment for us. Good results were reflected in all indicators, higher assets under management, revenue and profitability. In terms of investment management, despite the low interest rate environment and without compromising the level of security and the liquidity of assets intended to cover liabilities under insurance contracts, we achieved a good investment return of 1.8%, which is higher than the previous year's return and above the plan.

Exceptional growth in the share price

2021 was a very good year for Sava Re shares, which started 2021 at EUR 18.50 and ended it at EUR 27.90. In 2021, the share price rose by 51% and was far higher than the rise in the value of the European insurance index (SXIP), which gained 15% in the same period, and higher than the Ljubljana Stock Exchange Index SBITOP, which grew by 39%. We are pleased that the Sava Re share price reflects the ambitious plans of the Group and its excellent performance, and that the gap between the book value of the Sava Re share and its market price is now narrower.

The Group generated a record net profit of EUR 76 million in 2021.

In 2021, the share price rose by 51%.

the management board

In 2021, Sava Re paid out a dividend from the 2020 profit in the amount of EUR 0.85 per share, which was consistent with the recommendations of the Insurance Supervision Agency applicable at the time. Given that the Sava Insurance Group was also successful in 2021, the management and supervisory boards will propose that a dividend be also paid out in 2022. The proposed dividend per share of EUR 1.50 represents a 76.5% increase from the previous year's dividend, providing shareholders with a dividend yield of around 6%, in addition to a higher share price.

"A" credit ratings reaffirmed

Sava Re's capital soundness and solvency was reaffirmed last year with the "A" credit ratings by S&P Global Ratings and AM Best. The reaffirmed credit ratings reflect high capitalisation and liquidity, above-average operating performance of the Group over the last several years and effective risk management.

Providing for the community, employees and quality of life

Sustainable operations and social responsibility remain important aspects of the Group's business and will remain at the forefront over the course of the next strategic period as well. Last year, we adopted a sustainable investment policy, which highlights the problem of greenhouse gas emissions and efforts to reduce their impact on climate change. Thereby we self-imposed restrictions on investing in industries that do not comply with sustainability criteria, increasing the share of sustainable investments in our investment portfolio to 12% last year. We performed a substantive assessment of the insurance and reinsurance portfolio in terms of ESG criteria, developed guidelines for responsible underwriting in non-life insurance, and started integrating sustainability in the development of new products. In the middle of the year, we published disclosures on the Company's website regarding the integration of the sustainability aspect in investment processes, and we signed the United Nations Global Compact agreement and the United Nations Principles for Responsible Investment.

In line with its values and mission, the Sava Insurance Group continues to grow in its social responsibility and invests considerable effort in providing for a better quality of life. We increased the total resources committed to the environment. The Group is also aware of its responsibility to employees and has made it a fundamental goal of its sustainable development strategy to be recognised as a socially responsible and attractive employer in the region. Our customer centricity was thus complemented with our "Never Alone" project, which focuses on our employees, whose satisfaction and commitment constitute the drivers of our development.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank our shareholders, customers, employees and other stakeholders for their support and the trust they have placed in us. We will continue to invest our efforts in improving quality at all levels of our business while ensuring a high degree of financial strength and profitability of the Group. We know that only with the support of all our stakeholders can we realise our mission to ensure security and quality of life through commitment and constant progress, and our vision to build a customer-centric, modern, digital, community-minded and sustainability-oriented insurance group. Even the most daring story can come true "among good people".

Marko Jazbec Chairman of the Management Board of Sava Re d.d.

The Sava Insurance Group continues to grow in its social responsibility and invests considerable effort in providing for a better quality of life.

2.2 Significant events in 2021

MARCH

• On 5 March 2021, Sava Re received a letter from the Insurance Supervision Agency (the Agency) stating that, due to the uncertain situation regarding the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic and the associated uncer tain consequences for the economy and the insurance sector, the Agency expected insurance undertakings, reinsurance undertakings and pension companies to suspend dividend payments until 30 September 2021. Furthermore, the recommendation of the Agency set certain criteria for companies where, contrary to the recommendation, the management and supervisory boards were to propose the appropriation of the dis tributable profit prior to the above date, and required such companies to demonstrate compliance with the principle of prudence in their decisions. On 2 April 2021, Sava Re received another letter from the Agency amending the recommendation of 5 March 2021 re garding the payment of dividends and detailing the cri teria. To prove its ability to pay dividends in 2021, Sava Re compiled documents for the Agency to demonstrate its financial stability, solvency, liquidity and resilience to stress scenarios (including Covid-19 impacts). Based on the Agency's strictest criterion, the dividend was not to exceed the average dividend paid in 2017–2019, which was EUR 0.85 per share. On 9 September 2021, Sava Re received a letter from the Agency announcing that, based on half-yearly data on the performance of (re) insurance companies and pension companies and in view of the economic upturn in Slovenia and the euro area in the first half of 2021, it had decided not to extend the recommendation to suspend dividend payments (which

was valid until 30 September 2021). Notwithstanding the above, in this letter the Agency stated that it would continue to monitor the capital and dividend plans of its controlled entities closely and that it expected com panies to continue to pursue the principles of prudence

when declaring dividends.

2.3 Significant events after the reporting date

4• The Sava Insurance Group has examined the impact of the war in Ukraine on its operations, and it estimates that, due to its small volume of business with and low investment exposure to Russia and Ukraine, the changed circumstances will not have a material di rect impact on its business results. The Sava Insurance Group (through Sava Re) has written reinsurance con tracts with Russian and Ukrainian partners the annual premium volume of which accounts for only 0.5% of the Group's total planned operating revenue for 2022. All contracts contain so-called sanctions clauses. In the event of sanctions imposed by the European Un ion or the United Nations, such clauses limit the ob ligations of Sava Re under relevant contracts if such obligations are contrary to the applicable sanctions.

In addition, the reinsurance contracts written exclude coverage related to war. The Group's credit and cur rency exposure to Russia, Ukraine and Belarus as at 31 December 2021 accounted for just 0.24% of the Group's financial investments. Most of this expo sure arises from cash and cash equivalents, and rou ble-denominated investments, which are matched to liabilities denominated in the same currency. Only a small part, 0.04%, is invested in securities of Russian issuers, and so the credit risk is also negligible. Indirect impact of the financial markets movements is shown by the sensitivity analyses in the notes to the financial statements 17.6.4.1.1. Interest rates risk and 17.6.4.1.3. Equity risk.

2.5 Profile of the Sava Insurance Group5

5

Sava Re, the parent company of the Sava Insurance Group, transacts reinsurance business. The insurance part of the Group is composed of eight insurers based in Slovenia and in the countries of the Adriatic region: the composite insurer Zavarovalnica Sava (SVN); the non-life insurers Sava Neživotno Osiguranje (SRB), Sava Osiguruvanje (MKD), Illyria (RKS) and Sava Osiguranje (MNE); and the life insurers Vita (SVN), Sava Životno Osiguranje (SRB) and Illyria Life (RKS). In addition to these (re)insurers, the Group consists of:

  • Sava Pokojninska (SVN): a Slovenian pension company;
  • Sava Penzisko Društvo (MKD): a pension fund manager based in North Macedonia managing second- and third-pillar pension funds;
  • Sava Infond (SVN): a subsidiary managing investment funds;
  • TBS Team 24 (SVN): a company providing assistance services relating to motor, health and homeowners insurance;
  • DCB (SVN): an associate company carrying on hospital activities;
  • G2I (GBR): an associate company marketing on-line motor polices;
  • S Estate (RKS): a company based in Kosovo that owns some real property but is currently dormant.

The Group keeps expanding, diversifying into areas related to its existing business. We strengthen and refine our product range and have evolved into a comprehensive service provider:

Reinsurance: With over 40 years of experience in international reinsurance, Sava Re provides a full range of reinsurance coverages. Building a globally diversified portfolio, we now conduct business with more than 350 clients in over one hundred reinsurance markets worldwide. Our guiding principle is to build long-term relationships with our clients and partners that allow creating stability throughout all economic

Insurance, Slovenia: In Slovenia, insurance business is conducted by Zavarovalnica Sava and Vita. Zavarovalnica Sava was formed in 2016 by the merger of the Slovenian insurers Zavarovalnica Maribor and Zavarovalnica Tilia, and the Croatian insurers Velebit Osiguranje and Velebit Životno Osiguranje. Vita joined the Sava Insurance Group in 2020, which put the Sava Insurance Group in second place in Slovenia in terms

  • of market share.
  • Insurance, international: The Sava Insurance Group operates through subsidiaries and branches in the markets of Croatia, Serbia, Montenegro, North Macedonia and Kosovo. Motor third-party liability and motor casco account for a significant part of insurance business written in these markets, and there is a rising trend in property, health and other business. In the Croatian, Serbian and Kosovo markets, we are also present with life insurance companies or a branch.
  • Pensions: The Sava Insurance Group offers pension insurance in Slovenia and North Macedonia. In the Slovenian market, Sava Pokojninska offers a comprehensive range of supplementary pension insurance: it manages pension fund assets and distributes supplementary pension annuity payments. We have been present in North Macedonia since 2018 when we acquired the second largest pension company NLB Nov Penziski Fond, subsequently rebranded Sava Penzisko Društvo.
  • Asset management: Sava Infond manages assets in excess of EUR 500 million, serving over 80,000 investors. The company has been successfully putting capital to work for its clients for 28 years.
  • Assistance services: The TBS Team 24 assistance services supplement our core business in all the markets where we are present. We offer our clients motor, home and medical assistance, also adding other assistance services.

In 2021, we increased our ownership interest in Sava Osiguruvanje (MKD) and TBS Team 24 (SVN).

In July 2021, the company ZTSR was merged into the Diagnostic Centre Bled and struck off the register of companies. This merger had no impact on the result considered in the consolidated accounts of the Sava Insurance Group.

4 Report of the supervisory

The supervisory board of Sava Re d.d. (the Company or Sava Re) has prepared the following report in accordance with article 282 of the Slovenian Companies Act.

In 2021, the supervisory board monitored the Company's operations and oversaw its management in a responsible manner. It periodically examined reports on various and se lect aspects of the business, passed appropriate resolutions and monitored their implementation. Individual issues were addressed in more detail by the relevant supervisory board committees, and on the basis of their findings, the super visory board adopted appropriate resolutions and recom mendations.

The supervisory board operated within the scope of its powers and responsibilities under the law, the Company's articles of association and its rules of procedure.

COMPOSITION OF THE SUPERVISORY BOARD

In 2021, there were changes in the composition of the supervisory board. On 7 March 2021, the term of office of Davor Ivan Gjivoje Jr expired. On 8 March 2021, based on a resolution of the 36th general meeting of 16 June 2020, he started a new term of office. The terms of office of three members of the Sava Re supervisory board, Mateja Lovšin Herič, Keith William Morris and Andrej Kren, ex pired on 16 July 2021. In its session of 25 May 2021, the general meeting of shareholders elected Keith William Morris, Dr Matej Gomboši and Klemen Babnik as supervi sory board members for the next four-year term of office, all three starting on 17 July 2021. On 20 July 2021, the members of the supervisory board of Sava Re d.d. elected

from among themselves Davor Ivan Gjivoje Jr as the chair of the supervisory board and Keith William Morris as the deputy chair. Mateja Živec concluded her term of office on 31 December 2021 after resigning as a supervisory board member. In her place, the Sava Re workers' council ap pointed Edita Rituper for a term of office spanning from 1 January 2022 to 12 June 2023.

In 2021, the supervisory board comprised the following members:

-

• until 16 July 2021: Mateja Lovšin Herič, chair, Keith William Morris, deputy chair, Davor Ivan Gjivoje Jr, An drej Kren, Andrej Gorazd Kunstek and Mateja Živec; • from 17 July 2021: Davor Ivan Gjivoje Jr, chair, Keith William Morris, deputy chair, Klemen Babnik, Dr Matej Gomboši, Andrej Gorazd Kunstek and Mateja Živec.

The size and composition of the supervisory board allow for effective discussion and the adoption of sound resolutions based on the broad range of expertise and experience pro vided by its members.

OPERATION OF THE SUPERVISORY BOARD

In its operation and decision-making, the supervisory board is guided by the goals of both the Company and the Sava Insurance Group as a whole. During meetings, members express their opinions and positions, seeking to reconcile any differences.

The supervisory board notes that the reports prepared by the management board for the supervisory board's own use and that of its committees were appropriate for use as part

of a rigorous review of issues, and they comply with both the relevant laws and internal regulations. Meeting mate rials were provided in a timely manner, allowing members sufficient time to prepare themselves for the consideration of agenda items. The Company's professional staff assisted in carrying out meetings and organised other supporting activities.

The supervisory board met 14 times in 2021, in seven ses sions during the previous term of office until 16 July 2021 and in seven sessions during the term of office since 17 July 2021. All members attended all meetings convened during the two terms of office.

Discussions were also joined by the management board members and the supervisory board secretary, while other professional staff also assisted in certain agenda items. Most meetings were held as hybrid meetings, with both in-person and online attendance, amongst other reasons to ensure effective operation during times of Covid restrictions. But some meetings were held by electronic means only.

Over the course of the year, the supervisory board dis cussed relevant aspects of the operations and activities of the Company and the Sava Insurance Group within its powers under the law and the articles of association.

Below we outline the major issues to which the supervisory board members dedicated special attention in 2021:

Business plans of the Company and the Sava Insurance Group

In late 2021, the supervisory board considered and ap proved the "Business plan of the Sava Insurance Group and Sava Re d.d. for 2022".

Asset management

The supervisory board monitored asset management pe riodically and as part of reviewing the annual report and interim financial reports of the Company and the Group.

In August 2021, the supervisory board considered the findings of the feasibility analysis on outsourcing part of the asset management function and gave its consent to the management board's proposal to outsource the man agement of part of the Sava Re investment portfolio to its subsidiary Sava Infond.

Supervision of subsidiaries

In addition to overseeing the operations of Sava Re as the parent company of the Sava Insurance Group, the supervi sory board, to the extent permitted by law, actively moni tored the performance of the Group's subsidiaries.

Risk management system

Risk management

The supervisory board monitored risk management period ically and as part of reviewing the annual report and interim financial reports of the Company and the Group.

It took note of the risk report for the last quarter of 2020 and the first-, second- and third-quarter risk reports for 2021. In March, it took note of the "Joint Sava Insurance Group own risk and solvency assessment (ORSA) report for 2021." The report covered key information on the own risk and solvency assessment of Zavarovalnica Sava d.d., Zavarovalnica Vita d.d., Sava Re d.d. (the parent) and the Sava Insurance Group.

It was made familiar with the Solvency II capital adequa cy calculation as at 31 December 2020 and the solvency and financial condition reports of the Company and of the Group for 2020 (i.e. Company SFCR and Group SFCR).

In May 2021, the supervisory board took note of the risk committee's report on key findings of the review of the capital allocation model and the methodology for calculat ing economic profit.

Actuarial affairs

Compliance monitoring

In 2021, the supervisory board of Sava Re took note of the compliance function holder's 2020 annual report and the annual work plan for 2021. It also took note of the com pliance function holder's half-yearly report for the period from 1 January to 30 June 2021.

Internal audit

In 2021, the supervisory board oversaw the activities of the Company's internal audit department in accordance with its statutory powers. In addition, it considered the inter nal audit report for the period 31 October – 31 Decem ber 2020, and the annual report on internal auditing for 2020, including a quality assurance and improvement pro gramme of the Company's internal audit department, and it drew up an opinion on the annual report, which was pre sented to the general meeting of shareholders on 25 May 2021. It also considered quarterly internal audit reports for the periods ending on 31 March 2021, 30 June 2021, 30 September 2021. Furthermore, it monitored the quar terly reports of the internal audit department on internal auditing of the Sava Insurance Group (Group Internal Au dit). All reports prepared by the Company's internal audit department were presented by the department director.

The supervisory board considers the reports prepared by the internal audit to have been independent and objective, and that the internal auditor's recommendations and find ings are taken into account by the management board. It notes that internal audit reviews revealed no material ir regularities in the Company's operations. The supervisory board also notes that the internal audit department mon itors the development of the internal audit departments of Group subsidiaries on an ongoing basis, providing them with the required professional assistance. In addition, it also monitors the operations of these companies and found no major irregularities.

The nomination process, which was carried out with the expert support of the relevant committees, concluded with the supervisory board's drafting of an election resolu tion for the 37th session of the general meeting of share holders (Election of supervisory board members).

In autumn 2021, the Sava Re supervisory board, support ed by the relevant committees, undertook a nomination process for the reappointment of the chairman of the management board of Sava Re, and it unanimously voted to renew the mandate of the chairman of the management board. The new five-year term of the chairman of the management board of Sava Re starts on 13 May 2022.

Appointment of supervisory board committees

In its constitutive session in June 2021, the supervisory board again set up four committees, namely an audit com mittee, a risk committee, a nominations and remuneration committee, and a fit and proper committee, to support its operation in the new term of office.

Business report of the Sava Insurance Group and Sava Re

Sava Insurance Group and

Strengthening supervisory board best practices

In accordance with best practices, supervisory board members, upon taking office and then annually, complete questionnaires, including a statement that they have no conflicts of interest. These statements are posted on the Company's website. In 2021, all supervisory board mem bers declared themselves independent.

In accordance with good practice, the supervisory board an nually assesses its composition, operation and the work of its individual members and the supervisory board as a whole, in cluding cooperation with the management board. No self-as sessment was carried out in 2021 because the supervisory board entered a new term of office in the middle of the year.

Because of the change in the board's composition, how ever, the Company organised six in-depth induction ses sions for the new members of the supervisory board and its committees in the second half of 2021.

OPERATION OF SUPERVISORY BOARD COMMITTEES

AUDIT COMMITTEE

In accordance with statutory regulations, the Company's supervisory board has set up an audit committee for the more in-depth examination of accounting, financial and audit issues.

Terms of reference

The duties and powers of the audit committee of the su pervisory board are laid down by the Slovenian Companies Act, its rules of procedure and those of the supervisory board, and other autonomous legal acts (e.g. recommen dations for audit committees).

Composition in 2021

The term of office of each audit committee member is limited by the term of office of the supervisory board.

In 2021, the audit committee comprised the following members: • until 16 July 2021: Andrej Kren (chair), Mateja Lovšin

-

Herič and Ignac Dolenšek (external member); • from 17 July 2021: Dr Matej Gomboši (chair), Andrej Gorazd Kunstek, Katarina Sitar Šuštar (external mem ber) and Dragan Martinović (external member).

Specifics on the committee constitution in the new term of office

In contrast to past practice, when the audit committee of the Sava Re supervisory board operated in a three-mem ber composition, the supervisory board appointed a four-member audit committee in the new term of office, with two members being independent external experts. This is because the Company and most of the Group are preparing to operate under the new accounting standards, in particular IFRS 17, and since the terms of office of all three previous audit committee members expired, the continuity of the committee's work could not be ensured. After the expiry of the supervisory board's term of office (and those of its committees), the previous external mem ber of the audit committee ended his second consecutive term, which, according to the recommendations for audit committees, prevents him from serving another term as an independent external member.

Operation in 2021

The audit committee met 15 times in 2021, in 11 sessions during the previous term of office until 16 July 2021 and in four sessions during the term of office beginning on 17 July 2021. All members attended all meetings convened during the two terms of office.

The chief tasks carried out by the audit committee in 2021 are set forth below.

Overseeing the integrity of financial information

The audit committee monitored the integrity of financial information. The committee largely focused on oversee ing financial reporting processes. In this respect, it gave recommendations and suggestions regarding materials for supervisory board meetings to ensure compliance with relevant professional standards and observing appropriate reporting principles, such as completeness, transparency and consistency of reporting.

Monitoring the efficiency and effectiveness of internal controls and internal auditing

The audit committee monitored the efficiency and effec tiveness of internal controls and internal audit activities based on annual and quarterly internal audit reports, and it assessed the adequacy of the annual internal audit work plan. Furthermore, it monitored the quarterly reports of the internal audit department on internal auditing of the Sava Insurance Group (Group Internal Audit). The audit committee also reviewed the quality assurance and im provement programme of the internal audit department and the implementation of self-assessment for 2020. The audit committee carried out a separate meeting with the director of the internal audit department.

Monitoring the statutory audit of separate and consolidated financial statements

In 2021, the audit committee met with the selected ex ternal auditor several times, monitored the auditing of the separate and consolidated annual financial statements and, among other things, participated in determining au dit focus areas. Based on quarterly management board reports on non-audit services provided by audit firms, the audit committee assessed the independence of the auditor of the Company's annual accounts. It adopted a revised methodology for assessing the quality of external auditors and carried out a procedure of assessing the external au ditor of the 2020 annual report. Within the constraints of the Covid-19 pandemic, it followed closely the finalisation of the external audit for 2020.

In autumn 2021, the audit committee started the selec tion process for an external auditor for the financial years 2022–2024.

Performance of other tasks

In 2021, the audit committee also performed other tasks: for the supervisory board, it prepared the "Report on activities of the audit committee in 2020", including a self-assessment of the efficiency of its work. It took note of the periodic management board updates on the IFRS 17 implementation project and project of implementing a new IT system for asset management. Both projects were presented in supervisory board meetings, and the exter nal members of the audit committee were also invited to attend the relevant agenda point. The audit committee quarterly reviewed management board reports on corre spondence with the Insurance Supervision Agency, other market regulators and inspection authorities. It adopted the revised rules of procedure of the audit committee, submitting them to the supervisory board for approval. It discussed a draft policy on the independence of external auditors. It also confirmed its work plan for 2022.

The chair (as per current composition) of the audit com mittee regularly reported on the work and positions of the committee to the supervisory board, which also reviewed the meeting minutes of the committee.

The supervisory board is of the opinion that the audit committee thoroughly considered relevant issues within its terms of reference and offered the supervisory board professional assistance by providing opinions and preparing proposals.

The supervisory board further believes that the compo sition of the audit committee is appropriate and that the members have such professional and personal qualities as to maintain high quality and independence of operation.

Furthermore, the supervisory board is of the opinion that the audit committee was provided with appropriate sup port to carry out its work.

RISK COMMITTEE

The supervisory board believes that identifying and manag ing risk is an essential part of good governance; therefore, it set up a risk committee to monitor risk developments and offer advice and support to the supervisory board on risk-related issues.

Terms of reference

The risk committee performs tasks in accordance with the resolutions of the supervisory board, the Solvency II Di rective, its rules of procedure, the rules of procedure of the supervisory board, the Insurance Act and in line with the Corporate Governance Code for Listed Companies and other applicable risk management regulations.

  • from 17 July 2021: Keith William Morris (chair), Davor Ivan Gjivoje Jr., Dr Slaven Mićković (external member) and Dr Janez Komelj (external member).

Specifics on the committee constitution in the new term of office

In contrast to past practice, when the risk committee of the Sava Re supervisory board operated in a three-mem ber composition, the supervisory board – in view of the increasing complexity of risk management and to improve the committee's functioning – appointed a four-member risk committee in the new term of office, with two mem bers being independent external experts.

Operation in 2021

The risk committee met eight times in 2021, in five ses sions during the previous term of office until 16 July 2021 and in three sessions during the term of office since 17 July 2021. All members attended most of the sessions con vened during the terms of office. One member was justifi ably absent from one session but properly communicated his voting decisions regarding the proposed resolutions before the session to the chairman of the risk committee.

The supervisory board finds that, despite the still dif ficult and unpredictable epidemiological situation, the Sava Insurance Group generated a record net profit for 2021, which exceeded last year's profit and is better than planned. This assessment of the supervisory board is also based on the report of the independent auditor on the fi nancial statements of Sava Re d.d. and the Sava Insurance Group for 2021, and those of the key function holders of the Company's risk control system.

Sava Insurance Group and

While risks related to the epidemic seem to be dimin ishing, geopolitical risks are on the rise. Due to the small volume of business with and low investment exposure to Russia and Ukraine, the changed circumstances likely will not have a material impact on Group's business results; however, an indirect – and likely negative – impact on the Group's investment portfolio is expected in view of the trends in financial markets.

In 2022, the supervisory board will therefore pay special attention to monitoring the management of risks arising from business operations, considering the new and riskier geopolitical landscape. Apart from its day-to-day tasks, the supervisory board's main focus in 2022 will be on monitoring progress against the strategic and annual plans, and overseeing the designing of the strategic plan for the next five-year period.

The supervisory board will, within its means and defined powers, offer the management board its full support.

ANNUAL REPORT 2021

The Company's management board submitted the "Audit ed annual report of the Sava Insurance Group and Sava Re d.d. for 2021" for approval to the supervisory board. The audit committee of the supervisory board considered the unaudited and the audited annual reports of the Sava In surance Group and Sava Re d.d. for the year ended 31 De cember 2021, including the auditor's letter to the manage ment on the pre-audit conducted, the auditor's letter to the management on the audit, and the additional auditor's report to the audit committee on the audit of the financial statements as at 31 December 2021, prepared in accord ance with article 11 of Regulation (EU) no. 537/2014, with the committee's opinion thereon. In line with its powers,

the supervisory board examined the audited annual report in its meeting of 25 April 2022.

The supervisory board noted that the annual report for 2021 was clear and transparent, as well as compliant with the content and disclosure requirements under the Com panies Act, International Financial Reporting Standards and the Insurance Act, with its related implementing regu lations.

The supervisory board was also presented with the opinion of the auditor KPMG Slovenija, Podjetje za Revidiranje d.o.o., who audited the 2021 annual report of the Sava Insurance Group and Sava Re d.d. and carried out audit reviews in most of the Group's subsidiary companies. The supervisory board in its view has nothing to add to the pos itive opinion of the authorised auditor KPMG Slovenija, Podjetje za Revidiranje d.o.o., who finds that the consoli dated and separate financial statements provide, in all ma terial respects, a fair view of the financial position of the Sava Insurance Group and Sava Re d.d. as at 31 December 2021 and the profit or loss, other comprehensive income and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union.

Based on its review of the 2021 annual report, as well as based on the opinion of the external auditor and that of the audit committee, the supervisory board is of the opin ion that the annual report provides a true and fair view of the assets and liabilities, financial position, profit and loss, and cash flows of the Sava Insurance Group and Sava Re d.d.

The supervisory board hereby approves the "Audited an nual report of the Sava Insurance Group and Sava Re d.d. for 2021" as submitted by the management board.

DETERMINATION OF AND PROPOSAL FOR APPROPRIATION OF DISTRIBUTABLE PROFIT OF SAVA RE

The supervisory board reviewed the management board's proposal for the appropriation of the distributable profit as at 31 December 2021, subject to final approval by the gen eral meeting of shareholders of Sava Re. The supervisory board of Sava Re d.d. gives its consent to the management board's proposal to the general meeting regarding the ap propriation of the distributable profit as at 31 December 2021 of EUR 37,053,726.07: EUR 23,246,544.00 to be appropriated for dividends, and the remaining part of distributable profit of EUR 13,807,182.07 to be left unal located as retained earnings. Thus, the proposed gross divi dend per share is set at EUR 1.50.

5.1 Corporate governance policy

In December 2020, the Sava Re management board, with the consent of the Company's supervisory board, adopted the revised "Sava Insurance Group governance policy", and the revised "Corporate governance policy of Sava Re d.d." in August 2021. The documents set out the main subsidiary governance principles for the Sava Insurance Group, governance rules for Sava Re, taking into account the goals, mission, vision and values of the Sava Insurance Group. The policies represent a commitment for future action.

The corporate governance policy of Sava Re is available through the Ljubljana Stock Exchange Seonet information system and from the Company's website.

5.2 Statement of compliance with the Corporate Governance Code for Listed Companies

As a public limited company, Sava Re's reference code in 2021 was the Corporate Governance Code for Listed Companies adopted by the Ljubljana Stock Exchange, the Slovenian Directors' Association and the Managers' Association of Slovenia on 27 October 2016. It is available in Slovenian and English from the website of the Ljubljana Stock Exchange.

The management and the supervisory boards of Sava Re hereby state that Sava Re operates in compliance with the Code, with individual deviations that are disclosed and explained below.

5.2.1 Supervisory board

Recommendation 5.7: External assessment of the adequacy of the corporate governance statement

The Company has yet to ensure an external assessment of the adequacy of the corporate governance statement. The Company intends to carry out an external assessment of the corporate governance statement in the next strategy period.

Recommendation 13.1: Designing a training plan for the supervisory board and its committees, and determining a rough budget for related costs

When preparing the Company's financial plan, an annual training budget for the members of the supervisory board and its committees is set to ensure professional development and to maintain an appropriate level of competence for the roles. The Company does not have a pre-defined training plan for the members of the supervisory board and its committees. In order to maintain the level of knowledge and support the members of the supervisory board and its committees in keeping abreast of new developments, both in terms of general knowledge for the operation of the supervisory board and corporate governance as well as in terms of specialist knowledge required by individual members, the Company regularly monitors advertised external training courses and organises inhouse training courses tailored to the needs of the Company's supervisory board and its committees.

Recommendation 18.3: The term of office of an external member of a committee is not tied to the term of office of the supervisory board

In the Company, the terms of office of all committee members are tied to the term of office of the supervisory board. For practical reasons, because of the complexity of fit and proper assessment procedures upon the appointment of new committee members and upon their reappointment, the terms of office of the external committee members are tied to the terms of office of the supervisory board.

The operation of the supervisory board and its committees in 2021 is detailed in section 4 "Report of the supervisory board".

Sava Insurance Group

5.3.4 Management board

The management board runs the Company and repre sents it in public and legal matters. It is composed of at least two but no more than five members, of whom one is the chair. The chair and members of the management board are appointed by the supervisory board for a period of five years. Such appointments are renewable without limitations. The chairperson and all members of the man agement board are in regular employment on a full-time basis. The exact number of management board members and the areas for which they are responsible is laid down by the supervisory board in the "Act on the management board of Sava Re d.d."

The management board is composed in a manner to en sure responsible oversight and decision-making in the best interest of the Company. The management board's composition takes account of diversification of techni cal knowledge, experience and skills, and the way candi dates complement each other so as to form a homoge nous team and ensure sound and prudent conduct of the Company's business. In 2021 the Company sought to align the composition of the management board with the Company's policy on diversity of the management and supervisory boards.

The Company's policy on diversity of the management and supervisory boards is posted on the Company's web site.

In 2021, the gender balance on the management board was 25% women and 75% men. The implementation of the policy on diversity of the management board in 2021 is detailed below.

17

Terms of reference and operation of the management board

The management board operates in accordance with the applicable legislation, particularly the Slovenian Compa nies Act and the Insurance Act, as well as with the arti cles of association and the act on the management board and its rules of procedure. Terms of reference and opera tion of the management board are defined in more detail in the Rules of Procedure of the Management Board of Sava Re d.d.

Delimitation of competencies between the management and supervisory bodies is described in greater detail in the Corporate Governance Policy of Sava Re d.d., which is posted on the Company's website.

Remuneration, compensation and other benefits

Remuneration of the management board members con sists of a fixed and a variable component. The variable component of the salary of a management board mem ber is composed of (1) business-performance-based pay, (2) individual-performance-based pay linked to the an nual goals of each management board member and (3) board-performance-based pay linked to common goals of the management board. The variable component must not be determined so as to allow the rewarding of be haviour that encourages the exposure of the Company to uncontrolled risk. Remuneration, reimbursements and other benefits of management board members are set out in the employment contract made between the Company and each management board member. The methodology used to establish both the variable pay as well as the amount of the bonus of each management board member is adopted by the supervisory board. In its 36th session held on 16 June 2020, the general meeting took note of the remuneration policy for members of su pervisory and management bodies of the Sava Insurance Group.

The remuneration of management board members for 2021 is discussed in detail in section 17.10 "Related party disclosures" in the notes to the financial statements.

Share ownership

Management board members report any acquisition or disposal of Company shares to the Company and compe tent institutions, and Sava Re posts this information.

Details on POSR shares held by management board members as at 31 December 2021 are provided in section 3 "Shareholders and share trading".

5.4 Internal control and risk management systems relating to financial reporting18

18

Internal controls comprise a system of guidelines and processes designed and implemented by Sava Re at all levels to manage risks associated, among other things, with financial reporting. These controls work to guarantee the efficiency and effectiveness of operations, the reliability of financial reporting and compliance with applicable regulations and internal acts.

Apart from the Slovenian Companies Act (ZGD), Sava Re is governed by the Slovenian Insurance Act (ZZavar), which provides that insurance companies must put in place and maintain an appropriate internal control and risk management system. Relevant implementing regulations based on the Insurance Act are issued by the Insurance Supervision Agency and strictly complied with by the Company.

Financial controls are tightly connected to information technology controls, which are aimed among other things at restricting and controlling access to the network, information and applications, and controlling the completeness and accuracy of data entry and processing.

Internal controls applying to financial reporting on the consolidated basis are set out in the internal accounting rules and in the Sava Insurance Group Financial Control Rules. Internal controls include department meetings, process reviews, work instructions, regular checks of account balances, the four-eyes principle, controls embedded in systems, mentoring and training, and an internal tax manual. The calculation of technical provisions is based on the four-eyes principle, and it is carried out in

compliance with the "Rules on the valuation of technical provisions". In addition, for consolidation purposes, there are additional internal controls in place for the review of the consolidation processes for manual data entry and internal controls on items where adjustments are made to the Group, as well as controls on all the procedures carried out for the Group (additional postings, depreciation/amortisation). Members of the Group submit the financial information required for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements in reporting packages, prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and the parent's guidelines, within the time limits set out in the Company's financial calendar. In addition, Group members submit their separate financial statements, which constitutes an additional control measure. By unifying information systems and applications that support consolidation, planning and reporting, the exchange of financial data among Group companies is becoming ever more efficient. Whether necessary information system controls have been put in place and function adequately is verified, on an annual basis, by relevant experts as part of the regular annual auditing of financial statements.

In addition to the control systems mentioned above, Sava Re has put in place internal control systems for other vital work processes. Effective risk management requires that the Company ensures a functioning and established system of internal controls. The Company's systematic internal controls ensure the achievement of its objectives in terms of the efficiency and effectiveness of its

operations, the reliability, timeliness and transparency of internal and external reporting, and compliance with applicable laws, regulations and internal acts. All major business processes at Sava Re have been specified, including details on control points together with persons responsible for individual controls. Basic controls are carried out by reviewing documents received or by an automatic or manual control procedure of processed data.

Sava Re complies with all rules and regulations on handling confidential data and inside information, on allocation of investments and prohibition of trading based on inside information. In addition, it regularly controls employee dealings in financial instruments for own account.

Other entities authorised by Sava Re for the provision of individual services must do so in compliance with the law, implementing acts, contracts for services, internal rules and job instructions that are applicable at Sava Re.

The risk management department monitors improvements in the internal control environment and keeps track of internal controls in the internal control register, which is linked to the risk register. In accordance with the Insurance Act, Sava Re has set up an internal audit department that is responsible for assessing the adequacy and effectiveness of internal controls employed, and their reliability in the Company's pursuit of its goals while managing its risks. The internal audit department reports on its findings to the management board, the audit committee and the Company's supervisory board.

5.7 Governance of Sava Insurance Group members20

20

The parent company's management and supervisory bodies are the Sava Insurance Group bodies responsible for the proper governance and supervision of the entire Group and for setting up a governance framework appropriate to the structure, business and risks of the Sava Insurance Group as a whole and of its individual members.

The parent fully exercises its governance function by setting business strategy from the top down, taking into account both the Group as a whole as well as its individual members. For optimal capital allocation and resilience against unforeseen events, capital allocation and capital adequacy are managed on the Group level following the top-down principle. As part of its risk strategy, the Group sets the risk appetite both at the Group level as well as at the level of its members.

The Group has set up a systematic approach to risk management, including risk management at the level of individual companies, appropriate monitoring of the risks of individual companies by the parent company as well as risk management at the Group level. The latter takes into account any interaction between the risks of

individual Group companies, in particular risk concentration and other material risks associated with the operation of the Group.

Management or supervisory bodies of Sava Insurance Group subsidiaries individually pursue the same values and corporate governance policies as the parent company, unless otherwise required by law, the local regulator or based on the proportionality principle. Therefore, the management or supervisory bodies of each Sava Insurance Group subsidiary, as part of their responsibility for the governance of their company with regard to the implementation of Group policies, verify the need for any adjustments to local legislation as well as any other necessary adjustments and in accordance with the procedures set out in the Group policies, determine their adjustments to Group policies, making sure that the subsidiary complies with applicable laws and regulations as well as rules of sound and prudent operation.

Governance of the Sava Insurance Group is described in greater detail in the Corporate Governance Policy of Sava Re d.d. posted on the Company's website.

• The long-term objective is to achieve a return on equity of at least 12% at both the Group level and as a 3-year average. The internal calculation of the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) of the Sava Insurance Group, which includes the subordinated debt, totals 7.6%, with a cost of equity of 8.5%.

  • During the period 2020–2022, the solvency ratio at the Sava Insurance Group level will be between 180% and 220% (target capital range).
  • Non-life business in Slovenia will operate on a combined ratio that will not exceed 94%, and abroad it will not exceed 97%. The five-year average combined ratio of reinsurance business (total Group and non-Group business) will not exceed 93%.
  • With regard to life insurance in Slovenia, profitability (the ratio of the value of new policies to the present value of the expected premiums of such new policies) of the portfolio of new life policies will be at least 9%, and in Croatia and on other markets at least 5% and 7.5%, respectively.
  • The return on the Group's investment portfolio will average at least 1.5% over three years.

Key focus areas set out in the strategy Long-term strategic targets

Digital transformation & placing the customer at the centre

We are working to make it easier for policyholders to take out and manage insurance and to file claims, which also includes adapting our services to the needs and wishes of our clients. The new generation of digital customers is accustomed to fast and easy online shopping with as few clicks as possible. The Sava Insurance Group is adapting to this reality; we have therefore placed our core strategic focus on digital transformation and customer centricity.

IT overhaul

By upgrading our core systems, which includes replacing, upgrading and introducing new IT solutions, we will develop a modern and flexible IT system that will give us a competitive edge in the future..

Growth through acquisitions

In addition to effective organic growth during the strategic period, the Sava Insurance Group will continue its acquisition activities in the industries and markets where it is already present, and it will also look for growth opportunities in the insurance industry in other EU countries.

Operating revenue surpassed expectations across business segments. We were very successful in increasing operating revenue in life insurance, and even more successful in the pensions and asset management segment. We also achieved our targets in the non-life segment.

Net profit substantially exceeded the plan, mainly on account of more favourable claims experience in non-life insurance in Slovenia. Profit was also well above projections in the pensions and asset management, and reinsurance segments. As a result, the Group also exceeded the projected return on equity.

The net expense ratio achieved in 2021 was better than planned, which is attributable mainly to the life segment, and the pensions and asset management segment. The net incurred loss ratio was also better than planned with improvements in the reinsurance and non-life segments. The Group also succeeded in achieving better returns on the investment portfolio than expected in 2021.

Strategic objectives achieved in the Group's strategic focus areas

Digital transformation and placing the customer at the centre

In 2021, due to Covid-19 the Sava Insurance Group continued to upgrade and use remote digital solu tions, and optimise user experience, especially on its websites.

Key development activities continued with the in troduction of a multichannel solution in several Sava Insurance Group companies, with an emphasis on the management of multi-level processes and additional, integrated communication channels.

We introduced and upgraded the SavaNet portal to integrate the data of Zavarovalnica Sava and Sava Pokojninska; the portal is scheduled to be updated again in 2022 with data for Sava Infond.

The first paperless business communication process es were implemented in the Group and additional business communication processes will be integrated going forward. With the introduction of advanced technologies, we continue to develop and deploy ar tificial intelligence in various work processes.

By developing the use of additional sources of exter nal databases, we are looking to increase security and accelerate process implementation for our clients.

IT overhaul

As part of our IT overhaul projects for core insurance systems, we:

  • completed the replacement of the asset management solution for all target Group companies;
  • completed the introduction of a new insurance solution for FoS business;
  • continued with the implementation of the core insurance busi ness solution for the Croatian subsidiary of Zavarovalnica Sava;
  • launched the operational part of the project for implementing a reinsurance IT solution at Sava Re.

We completed the consolidation of the existing Zavarovalnica Sava data warehouses and started to develop and integrate addi tional content and solutions at other Group companies.

In terms of infrastructure, we ensured ongoing support to various development projects and upgraded supervisory-management processes while improving the efficiency of infrastructural sup port.

We also increased IT security by introducing 24/7 operational oversight (Security Operations Centre) in all target Group com panies.

Acquisitions-based growth

In 2021, the Sava Insurance Group pursued the strategic goal of growth through acquisitions. Acquisition activities continued in the private health segment, which the Group is developing through the company DCB, and in the road-side assistance seg ment, where the Sava Insurance Group has acquired an additional stake in TBS Team 24.

Achievement of strategic objectives by key business pillar

Insurance and pensions

As part of the client in the centre programme, compa nies successfully started implementing projects for mul ti-channel communication, support to the contact centre processes, and portal and mobile solutions.

In 2021, online non-life insurance sales grew even fast er, cooperation with banks was strengthened and new partnerships were formed with mobile operators, digital equipment retailers and other specialised partners. In non-EU companies we established the "request a quota tion" functionality, which also allows customers to send an inquiry for products that are not available online. In 2021, we launched two new non-life products, name ly micromobility insurance and assistance insurance for lightweight vehicles. Liability, assistance and accidents covers are linked to the driver and no longer to the ve hicle. New products with integrated assistance are also being developed for small and medium-sized enterprises.

Investment guarantees in life insurance products in non-EU companies continued to decline, whereas Slovenian companies have stopped offering such life insurance ar rangements altogether. Life products were supplemented with additional health coverage and assistance services (e-consultation with a doctor, home assistance), and a special emphasis was placed on the development of inde pendent health insurance products (specialist services). To accommodate the needs demonstrated by our banking partners, we adapted the existing bancassurance products and successfully established a partnership between our life insurer and NLB bank in Kosovo.

Despite the impact of the coronavirus and the challeng es faced by assistance services, the TBS Team 24 Group assistance service provider managed to adapt to the new situation. Due to changed travel patterns in 2021, when most people travelled with private vehicles, the Company strengthened its technical assistance service both within and outside the Sava Insurance Group.

Reinsurance

In 2021, activities were aimed at ensuring quality growth, taking into account the situation in individual markets and striving to further diversify the portfolio, by both geography and market. 2021 was largely shaped by the Covid-19 pandemic and significant adverse claims expe rience over the summer months (floods, hailstorms, wild fires and similar). In the wake of these developments, we saw the first signs that the market was hardening in the

mid-year renewals, with higher prices and stricter condi tions for reinsurance contracts (strict exclusion of com municable diseases, cyber risks and similar). Tighter con ditions resulting from numerous loss events in the global markets in past years, when results were relatively poor, became blatantly obvious in the 1 January 2022 renewals. The focus on profitability and low volatility of the portfo lio will continue in the forthcoming mid-year renewals.

Management of investments

The Group increased its share of real estate, infrastruc ture and sustainable investments in the portfolio in 2021. The share of sustainable investments (ESG investments) in the portfolio was 11.9% at the end of the year. The in vestment portfolio is composed of predominantly highly rated government and corporate bonds. The key goal of the Group's investment policy is to maintain low volatility and a high level of security of assets supporting obliga tions arising from insurance contracts, as well as to en sure high liquidity and risk diversification.

Asset management

Sava Infond substantially grew its asset management business in 2021 and performed very well. The strong growth in assets under management was partly the result of positive trends in capital markets.

CONTENTS

Sava Re, the parent of the Sava Insurance Group, transacts reinsurance business in over 100 countries worldwide24. The following section contains a description of the international non-life insurance market, as well as the most significant indicators of macro-economic environments and insurance markets where the Sava Insurance Group is present.

24 25

Global non-life reinsurance markets25

For the global reinsurance sector, 2021 was another tough year. The industry continued to suffer from higher frequency and -severity natural catastrophe losses fuelled by rapid urbanisation and climate change. In addition, 2021 is likely to be the fifth in a row in which the top 21 global reinsurers rated by S&P Global Ratings (S&P) exhaust their annual natural catastrophe budgets. The Covid-19 pandemic has further worsened industry losses, especially among these top reinsurers. As a result, S&P maintains a negative outlook on the global reinsurance sector. This outlook reflects their expectations of credit trends over the next 12 months, including the distribution of rating outlooks, existing sector-wide risks and emerging risks. As of 25 October 2021, S&P assigned outlooks on the top 21 global reinsurers as follows: 29% negative, 62% stable and 9% positive.

Despite the elevated losses, the industry's capital adequacy has been robust and remains redundant at the 'AA' confidence level, aided by capital raises and financial market recovery. However, the industry still faces secular challenges and market competition. Once a competitive advantage, capital now is viewed as a relatively cheap commodity because of the influx to the sector from non-traditional sources. The situation is further exacerbated by the low-yield environment in debt financing.

Many reinsurers have adopted a hybrid model, writing both reinsurance and specialty insurance to hedge against the challenges of the reinsurance sector. Indeed, an increasing number of the top 21 global reinsurers are expanding their insurance more than their reinsurance business, taking advantage of better pricing on the primary commercial side while aiming to reduce volatility. S&P believes reinsurance pricing momentum will firmly support premium rate increases, given the sector's recent underperformance, although the pace of rate increases may slow, in part due to ample capacity. Reinsurers also continue to push for higher premium rates wherever they can take them in non-life insurance lines, with terms and conditions remaining in sharp focus, especially for the exclusion of pandemic and silent cyber coverage. However, reinsurers are only price-takers in this insurance cycle since this time the primary market is leading pricing dynamics. While the recovery of economic and social activity has generated optimism, reinsurers remain cautious about reserve adequacy in view of liability loss trends for business written during the recent soft cycle, as well as given inflationary pressures, potential Covid-19 loss developments, climate change and the risks of investing in uncertain times. S&P expects reinsurance pricing to strengthen in response to 2021's elevated losses.

Despite these elevated losses, the industry has demonstrated financial resilience: a S&P analysis suggests that 13 of the top 21 global reinsurers would maintain a buffer at their current S&P capital adequacy level, even after a 1-in-100-year natural catastrophe loss.

Reinsurers' strategies, given the improving risk-adjusted pricing, have diverged, with some increasing their property catastrophe risk appetite and others maintaining a defensive stance.

• In Slovenia, most economic indicators suggest that the relatively favourable trends in the export-oriented part of the industry and in domestic consumption continued in the last quarter of last year; the worsening of the epidemic situation has had an impact especially on the confidence indicators of services. Manufacturing production increased significantly in November after stagnating in October. Trade in goods also picked up in October and November, after several months of pronounced monthly volatility. Trade and tourism-related activities also continued a relatively favourable trend in October, with sales slightly higher than in the same periods of 2019 and 2020, according to fiscal invoice validation data. Due to the low base in 2020, activity in most sectors was significantly higher year-on-year at the beginning of the last quarter and was above pre-epidemic levels. However, in particular tourism-related activities and construction still lag well behind these levels. After a downturn in October, sentiment in the export-oriented part of the economy improved by the end of the year but was on average lower than in the previous quarter.

• Labour market conditions remained favourable in the fourth quarter of last year. Employment, at its historic peak since measurement began, rose further in October. The highest year-on-year growth rates were recorded in the hospitality and construction sectors, largely driven by the employment of foreign workers, against a backdrop of low unemployment and a shortage of adequately skilled workers. The number of registered unemployed at the end of last year was notice-

ably lower than in the same periods of 2020 and 2019 and the lowest since November 2008. Given the high labour demand reflected in high vacancy rates, the number of long-term unemployed also fell last year, but is still slightly higher than before the epidemic.

  • Inflation rose further in December to 4.9% (average inflation in 2021: 1.4%). The main drivers of inflation were higher prices of energy, durable and semi-durable non-energy manufactured goods and food. The price increases are related to high commodity and energy prices in international markets and restraints in supply chains, which increasingly spill over into domestic consumer prices through import prices and prices of Slovenian manufacturers.
  • The general government deficit in the first 11 months of 2021 was lower than in the same period of 2020; preliminary data point to an increase in December 2021. The government budget deficit was EUR 2.2 billion in the first 11 months of last year, EUR 0.3 billion lower year on year, reflecting strong revenue growth and lower growth in expenditure. Revenue growth was driven by a recovery in economic activity, especially domestic consumption, and more favourable labour market conditions. This mainly resulted in stronger revenue from tax and social security contributions, but also from some non-tax revenue associated with extraordinary revenue, and EU funds. In the second half of last year, expenditure declined as a number of measures to mitigate the financial impacts of Covid-19 were being phased out.

Croatia also saw GDP grow by 15.8% in the third quarter last year. The biggest contributors to the high growth rate were tourism and service exports, which were 71.6% higher year on year. Significant recovery was observed in all cat egories of consumption, except for government spending, which in 2020 largely consisted in maintaining econom ic activity. Consumer spending increased by 16.0% in real terms, net investments in fixed capital by 7.6%, and exports of goods by 13.1%. Such development of total demand also led to a simultaneous increase in the value of imports of goods and services, the value of which was 13.9% higher in

real terms than in the third quarter of 2020. Overall, GDP was 10.7% higher in real terms in the first three quarters of last year than in 2020, which was also affected by a 52.0% increase in the value of exports of services, followed by a 10.9% increase in the value of personal consumption. The value of all categories of demand was higher than in 2019, except for export of services, which was still 14.6% lower. According to the estimates of the European Commission, such positive trends should continue this year and next.

In October and November last year, industrial output main tained stable and relatively high growth rates and grew by 6.7% in the first eleven months. Power generation, the manufacture of finished metal products, and production of food products had a significant impact on growth in indus trial output, which also represented a significant share of 38% in the production structure. On the other hand, the production of chemicals and chemical products, the extrac tion of crude oil and natural gas fell, as did the manufacture of apparel. The annual decline in these activities was about 10%. Industrial production was 2.6% higher than in the first eleven months of 2019. This means that growth recorded in aggregate demand also resulted in a slightly higher level of industrial output.

Most of last year was marked by high growth rates in retail. The cumulative growth rate for the first eleven months was 15.3% in nominal terms. Such developments in retail were most affected by the sale of motor fuels and lubricants, which were significantly affected by the increase in crude oil prices. Given the significant decline in retail in 2020, a par tial economic lockdown, the restriction of consumption, and significantly worse tourism results, it is important to note

that retail sales in the first eleven months of 2021 were 5.7% higher in real terms in line with calendar-adjusted indices than in the same period in 2019.

The construction sector also grew; the annual increase in the volume of construction work in October 2021 amounted to 6.1% according to calendar-adjusted indices, which is slightly lower than the annual rates of previous months. In the first ten months, year-on-year growth was 10.3%, which was significantly higher than in 2020 (3.8%). The first ten months of 2021 saw construction activity surge by 14.4% compared to the same period in 2019.

Compared to 2020, tourism also achieved high growth. A total of 69.6 million overnight stays were recorded in the first eleven months, of which foreign tourists contributed 62.5 million (89.8% of all overnight stays). Compared to the same period in the previous year, the number of overnight stays increased by 71.5%, whereas the growth in foreign tourist overnight stays (77.1%) was higher than that of domestic tourists (34.2%). However, the number of overnight stays in the first eleven months did not reach 2019 levels but remained 23% below the figure for that year.

2021 ended with the highest inflation rate (5.5%) since October 2008, and above the euro area average (5.0%). As in previous months, the annual rate of commodity price inflation (6.7%) was significantly higher than service price inflation (1.7%) in December, indicating that the rise in inflation relates to the supply side (difficulties in rebuilding global supply chains and production given as the result of the Covid-19 pandemic), and was most evident in higher prices for energy and food. Prices for 11 of the 12 basic groups of products/services in the consumer basket (excluding health) increased year on year, but only three

(food, alcoholic beverages and tobacco, and transport) exceeded the overall inflation rate of 5.5%, meaning that the high base of inflation growth is still limited to 2.9%, excluding energy and food. Average annual inflation in 2021 stood at 2.6% and was the highest since 2012 (3.4%).

The number of unemployed persons decreased on an annual basis from April onwards and was 30,800 (-19.7%) lower in November than a year ago. The number of unemployed persons was 2.7 thousand (-2.1%) than in November 2019, making November the first month of the year in which fewer unemployed people were registered than in 2019, before the Covid-19 crisis. According to the Seasonal Unemployment Survey (ILO methodology) published by Eurostat, the unemployment rate stood at 7.1% in November 2021, i.e. 0.2 p.p. lower than in the previous month and 1.4 p.p. lower than a year ago.

The 2021 insurance premiums are estimates because figures for the whole year 2021 have not yet been published.

In the third quarter of 2021, the Republic of Serbia's GDP continued to grow (7.7%), and a similar growth rate (7.1%) is expected by the National Bank of Serbia in the fourth quarter of 2021, mainly driven by the service sector and growth in industry and the construction business. Projected GDP growth for the coming years remains unchanged (ranging from 4% to 5%). According to the Statistical Office of the Republic of Serbia, real GDP growth in Serbia reached 7.5% in 2021.

Net inflows of foreign direct investment in 2021 amounted to EUR 3.9 billion. Foreign direct investments come mainly from the EU, with an increasing share of investment from Asian countries (especially China), and the United States, as well as non-EU European countries (Russia, Turkey, Switzerland).

The inflation rate in December 2021 was 7.9%, but expectations at the National Bank of Serbia and the International Monetary Fund show that rising inflation is due to the influence of temporary factors. Average inflation in 2021 was estimated at 3.0%.

The average net salary in January–October amounted to RSD 64,465 and was 8.9% higher year on year, which is attributable to rapid growth in salaries in the private sector.

According to the latest available figures, the debt ratio in November was 56.4% of GDP, and the National Bank of Serbia estimates that it will remain below 60% of GDP (Maastricht criteria) until the end of 2021. 33 Source: www.imf.org, Serbian

Real GDP in the third quarter of 2021 grew by 3% year on year. These results show that the domestic economy continued to recover regardless of the population's con tinued exposure to the Coronavirus, without any major negative effects of the fourth wave of Covid-19 during this period. According to the latest estimates for 2021, GDP growth in 2021 is expected to stand at 4.1%.

In November 2021 industrial output increased by 4.7% relative to the same month of the previous year. In No vember 2021, output grew in 18 of 27 industrial sectors, representing 61.7% of total industry. Industrial produc tion grew by 2.1% in the first eleven months of 2021 due to higher output in all sectors.

In the period January–November 2021, a total of 180,192 new employment relationships were recorded by the national employment agency. Compared to the same period in 2020, the total number of newly employed persons increased by 14.7%. This strong growth was partly the result of, among other things, the lower base effect from 2020, when the employment rate slowed due to negative effects of the pandemic. 41.6% of all newly em ployed persons have permanent employment contracts, while the others are on fixed-term contracts or are sea sonal workers. In November 2021, the total number of unemployed fell by 22.6% relative to November 2020.

The average inflation rate for 2021 was 3.2%, helped by domestic prices linked to commodity price developments on global exchanges as well as some factors specific to the pandemic and the easing of restrictive measures.

CONTENTS

In the period from January to November 2021, the budget of the Republic of Northern Macedonia recorded a deficit of MKD 30,026 million. This budget deficit is primarily financed through government borrowing on foreign markets, and to a lesser extent by borrowing on the domestic market and withdrawing government funds from the deposit account with the National Bank. The realised deficit for January–November 2021 represents 65.9% of the deficit resulting from the 2021 budget revision.

The foreign exchange market fully recovered in 2021. The achievements of the foreign exchange market are an important indicator of the movement of private transfers; consequently, they have a major impact on the size and direction of the current account balance. Given that this category constitutes one of the major channels exerting both foreign and domestic shocks to the domestic economy, the shock caused by the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 had a significant negative impact on this category. The effect is due to the reduced supply of foreign exchange in the context of strict measures to contain the spread of Covid-19, which was particularly pronounced in the second and third quarters of 2020 and which was observable through reduced cash remittances. Net purchases in the foreign exchange market increased by 57.5% in 2021 due to growth in the supply of foreign exchange, which brought about the return of total net purchases close to 2019 levels, indicating a significant recovery in private transfers. This was a result of recovering global economic activity during the year and the increased exposure of the population to the virus, which in turn supported the almost complete lifting of all restrictions on movement.

The Montenegrin Ministry of Finance projected economic growth for 2021. Growth for 2021 is estimated at 13.4%.

Following the end of the global recession (2012), the Mon tenegrin economy enjoyed a trend of steady growth that lasted until the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic (2020), when the country saw the greatest downturn in economic activity in recent history.

The domestic economy was hit by the Covid-19 pandemic, which resulted in a major decline in economic activity (the largest in Europe). The significant reduction in economic ac tivity also led to negative developments in the labour market, in the form of cuts in the workforce. The large contraction in the economy and the consequent lower budget revenue on the one hand, and the need to help the economy and cit izens weather the negative effects of the pandemic on the other, exacerbated budget deficits, driving them up to more than 10% and public debt to more than 100% of GDP by the end of 2020. The high deficit and level of public debt fur ther narrowed the fiscal space for investment in mainly cap ital projects that drive economic growth. This suggests that the pandemic greatly exacerbated the previously identified vulnerabilities of the Montenegrin economy, specifically an inadequate economic structure with a dominant service sec tor and an economic development model based largely on foreign investment. In addition, the economic environment is characterised by a strong dependence on foreign debt. New infrastructure should be put in place, and existing infrastruc ture should be improved as the most important precondition for long-term sustainable economic growth and the country's overall development.

The Government of Montenegro adopted a fiscal strategy for the period 2021–2024 aimed at stabilising the macroeconomic environment and its public finances in 2021 to create conditions for economic growth in 2022– 2024. Measures are planned in line with the adopted strategy to ensure further growth in budget revenue on the one hand and capital expenditure on the other. The structure of budgetary spending will therefore change in a way that supports the achievement of a larger share of the capital budget in total spending.

Kosovo's economy is estimated to have recovered in 2021 due to the easing of restrictive measures related to the pandemic. According to estimates of the Kosovo Agency of Statistics, real GDP increased by 12.1% by Septem ber 2021. Growth in economic activity is estimated to have continued in the fourth quarter of 2021, supported by growth in the export of both goods and services, an increase in the value of remittances, and an increase in foreign direct investment.

Consumer prices rose by 4.3% in the third quarter of 2021, driven mainly by temporary internal and exter nal factors attributable to the effects of post-pandemic recovery. The increased economic activity during the reporting period was accompanied by increased budget revenue. Budget revenue increased by 38.2% in the third quarter of 2021, while budget expenditure decreased by 8.3%, leaving Kosovo's budget with a primary surplus of EUR 132.5 million. Public debt continued its double-dig it annual growth of 23.4%, rising to EUR 1.66 billion, whereas in the third quarter of 2021 it reached 23.0% of GDP.

The financial system expanded rapidly during this period as the result of the positive functioning of the banking and pension sectors. However, the positive contribution of other sectors to this growth was limited by their low weight in the total assets of the financial system. Activ ity in the banking sector supported growth in loans and deposits, while the growth recorded in the pension sector was attributed to a significant positive return on invest ment and contributions received from payers. 42 Source: Central bank of the

8.1 Sava Insurance Group

46

The operations of the Sava Insurance Group are organised by these segments: reinsurance, non-life (insurance), life (insurance), pensions and asset management, and the "other" segment. The non-life and life segments are further broken down by geography into Slovenia and international.

The operating segments include the following companies46:

  • reinsurance: Sava Re (non-Group business);
  • non-life, Slovenia: Zavarovalnica Sava (the Slovenian part of non-life insurance business, including FOS business), Vita (non-life insurance business);
  • non-life, international: Zavarovalnica Sava (the Croatian part of non-life insurance business), Sava Neživotno Osiguranje (SRB), Illyria (RKS), Sava Osiguranje (MNE), Sava Osiguruvanje (MKD), Sava Car (MNE), Sava Agent (MNE), Sava Station (MKD);
  • life, Slovenia: Zavarovalnica Sava (the Slovenian part of life insurance business), Vita (life insurance business), ZS Svetovanje (SVN), Ornatus KC (SVN);
  • life, international: Zavarovalnica Sava (the Croatian part of life insurance business), Sava Životno Osiguranje (SRB), Illyria Life (RKS);
  • pensions and asset management: Sava Pokojninska (SVN), Sava Penzisko Društvo (MKD), Sava Infond (SVN);
  • other: TBS Team 24 (SVN), S Estate (RKS), DCB (SVN) and G2I (GBR) using the equity method. This segment also includes expenses on subordinate debt.

The following reallocations were made in the consolidated

income statement:

• The effects of reinsurance (retrocession) relating to business with subsidiaries are reallocated to the other segments (Sava Re as the parent company handles the reinsurance of most business of its subsidiaries): in the segment reporting information, reinsurance premiums accepted by the reinsurer from its subsidiaries are reallocated to the segments from where they have arisen. The same applies, by analogy, to reinsurance claims, commission income, the change in unearned premiums, claims provisions and deferred acquisition

- costs due to reinsurance.

• Operating expenses of the reinsurance segment are reduced by the portion of expenses attributable to the administration of the Sava Insurance Group. Sava Re operates as a virtual holding company; hence, a part of its expenses relates to the administration of the Group. Such expenses relating to the reinsurance segment are allocated to other segments based on each subsidiary's revenue. Operating expenses associated with reinsurance business within the Group are also reallocated to other segments. In this way, 66.7% of operating expenses were allocated to the segments in 2021 (2020: 68.4%). In addition, there were reallocations of operating expenses of the company TBS Team 24 associated with the companies conducting business in the Slovenian or international non-life segments from the "other" segment to these two segments.

  • Investment income and expenses are reallocated from the reinsurance segment to the non-life insurance and life insurance segments using the key for the apportionment of net technical provisions for the rolling year (average of past four quarters).
  • In 2020, other income included the extraordinary income relating to positive difference between the fair value of net assets acquired and the purchase price of the investment on the acquisition of Vita, which was taken from the reinsurance segment and allocated to the Slovenian life and non-life segments (EUR 9.9 million).

The following reclassifications were made in the consolidated statement of financial position:

  • Goodwill was attributed to the segment where it arose.
  • The balance of financial investments associated with the Group's reinsurance share of technical provisions is reallocated from the reinsurance segment to the non-life and life segments using the key for the apportionment of net technical provisions for the rolling year (average of past four quarters).
  • The reinsurers' share of technical provisions (reinsurers' share of unearned premiums, claims provisions and other provisions) and deferred acquisition expenses are reallocated to other segments in the same way as described in indent one of reallocations of income statement items.
  • Subordinated liabilities are shown in the "other" segment.

Vita (SVN) has been included in the consolidated financial statements since 31 May 2020.

46 From the first quarter of 2021 onwards, the Group presents Sava Infond in the pensions and asset management segment. In the 2020 annual report, Sava Infond was part of the "other" segment.

According to the prescribed income
statement scheme, exchange rate dif
ferences are shown within individual
business categories and not only under
net exchange rate differences, as is the
practice in other industries. Although
the Group follows a policy of asset and
liability currency matching, certain im
pacts on individual business categories
do not reflect their trends and results
appropriately. The table below therefore
offers an overview of the effect of ex
change differences on these categories;
these categories are then presented,
excluding the effect of exchange rate
differences.

Most of the net exchange differences of EUR 0.4 million relate to the reinsurance segment (2020: EUR 0.3 million).

8.1.1 Reinsurance

Income statement and statement of financial position by operating segment are presented in the notes to the financial statements, section 17.4.37 "Segment reporting". The reinsurance segment primarily reflects the developments in the portfolio that Sava Re writes outside Slovenia with non-Group companies.

Composition of the gross income statement; reinsurance business

The underwriting result, excluding the effect of exchange differences, was better than in 2020, mainly on account of lower claims incurred. The investment result in 2021 improved, mainly due to higher gains on the sale of and dividend income from financial investments.

Net premiums earned 103,729,231 99,243,228 104.5

Gross premiums written grew by 5.0%. Proportional reinsurance achieved growth of 11.2%, whereas non-proportional reinsurance business grew 1.5%. Premiums for past underwriting years were EUR 7.3 million higher in 2021, mainly for proportional reinsurance, whereas premiums for the current underwriting year were slightly lower (by 2.1% and EUR 2.0 million, respectively). After the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, we estimated that, due to the expected decline in the GDPs of the countries where we have clients, the premium volume for the financial year would be 10% below the target figure set when underwriting the business based on cedant figures. In 2021, we abandoned this assumption based on the economic situation and treated the premiums for the 2020 underwriting year the same way as for other underwriting years. We have seen similar responses from other reinsurers in international markets. The growth in premiums earned was in line with gross premium growth.

Unconsolidated premiums earned are presented in more detail in section 8.2 "Sava Re".

Gross claims paid 58,451,182 56,510,782 103.4
Net claims incurred 72,431,519 82,871,811 87.4

Gross claims paid rose by 3.4%, whereas net claims incurred fell by 12.6% (premiums earned increased by 4.5%). In 2021, higher gross claims paid were the result of storms and floods in western Europe (notably in Germany, Belgium and Austria) and China, as well as a fire loss in Suriname. Despite the high gross claims paid related to the floods in western Europe, their impact on net claims incurred was relatively low owing to reinsurance protection. Developments in past underwriting years had a positive effect on the movement of net claims incurred in 2021. The drop in relation to 2020 was also the result of the detrimental effect of Covid-19 in 2020.

The net incurred loss ratio relating to the reinsurance segment thus improved by 14.6 p.p. year on year to 69.0% (2020: 83.6%).

Acquisition costs (commissions) increased due to higher growth in proportional than in non-proportionate reinsurance characterised by considerably lower commission rates. The share of acquisition costs as a percentage of gross premiums written was 22.1% in 2021 (2020: 20.7%). The average value of the ratio was around 21% in the recent quarters.

Other operating expenses increased due to costs of services related to Group corporate governance, the introduction of international financial reporting standards IFRS 17 and IFRS 9, and the upgrade and introduction of new IT solutions and services associated with the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR).

Consequently, the net expense ratio was 2.1 p.p. higher than in the previous year.

8.1.2 Non-life

Income statement and statement of financial position items by operating segment are presented in the notes to the financial statements, section 17.4.37.

Profit or loss before tax for the non-life operating segment improved in 2021 by EUR 18.1 million relative to the previous year. The largest part of the improvement in the amount of EUR 14.2 million arose from the operations of the Slovenian part of the segment, while the rest of the improvement in the amount of EUR 3.9 million derived from the international non-life segment.

The underwriting result of Slovenian non-life business improved by EUR 13.8 million, largely due to lower net claims incurred from FoS business. The improvement in the non-Slovenian underwriting result of non-life insurers of EUR 3.3 million is chiefly attributable to the better results of the Croatian branch of Zavarovalnica Sava.

Net investment income from Slovenian non-life business grew by EUR 0.6 million in 2021, mainly due to higher income from alternative funds. Net investment income from non-Slovenian non-life insurers was EUR 0.3 million lower as the result of higher gains on the disposal of investments and interest income in 2020 compared to 2021.

The result of other income and expenses of the Slovenian non-life insurers declined by EUR 0.6 million because the result in the same period last year also included extraordinary income of EUR 0.9 million recognised due to the positive difference between the fair value of net assets acquired and the purchase price of the investment in Vita. The result of other income and expenses of foreign non-life insurers rose by EUR 0.9 million, reflecting higher "other income" and lower "other expenses" of the Serbian non-life insurer.

Gross non-life insurance premiums decreased slightly in 2021 due to the cancellation of FoS business, while net premiums earned remained at the previous year's level.

In 2021, gross motor insurance premiums written within non-life insurance business remained at the previous year's level. The EUR 8.2 million drop in gross premiums written in FoS business was offset by higher gross motor insurance premiums written in Slovenia, especially in personal lines due to an increase in the number of insurance policies sold. Gross motor insurance premiums outside Slovenia increased in all foreign markets, except in Croatia, where the drop in gross premiums written was due to portfolio cleaning.

The EUR 6.7 million drop in gross premiums written in ship insurance and the EUR 6.0 million drop in general liability business mainly relates to FoS business.

In 2021, gross premiums written in the property insurance segment increased by only EUR 0.3 million due to lower premiums from FoS business. Excluding FoS business, property insurance premiums written in Slovenia increased by EUR 4.2 million on account of both personal property business, where the number of insurance policies sold increased, as well as of commercial property, mainly due to the increase in premiums paid by major clients.

Net claims incurred declined mainly due to a smaller increase in claims provisions compared to last year, due mainly to the run-off and smaller inwards portfolio with most partners transacting FoS business with the insurance company.

In the international non-life segment, net claims incurred decreased mainly because the Croatian branch of Zavarovalnica Sava had to set up additional claims provisions for the payment of non-pecuniary damages in 2020 due to regulatory requirements, and in 2021 claims provisions

decreased due to the smaller volume of the portfolio. In addition, the Kosovo insurer reduced its claims provisions in 2021 due to the successful settlement of older insurance claims.

Gross claims paid from FoS business increased by EUR 6.2 million, whereas gross claims of Slovenian insurers decreased by EUR 4.2 million, mainly in motor insurance, due to a lower number of claims.

Gross claims paid by non-domestic insurers rose by EUR 4.0 million. The largest rise in claims was posted in property business, as some non-domestic insurers suffered major claims in this area.

Policy acquisition costs declined due to lower gross premiums written in FoS business. Other operating expenses increased by 3.3%, which was affected by the higher labour costs incurred by the Slovenian part of Zavarovalnica Sava and the full-year consolidation of Vita.

Gross expense ratio, non-life segment

The gross expense ratio of the non-life segment rose by 0.3 p.p., as the relative decrease in gross premiums written exceeded the relative decrease in the gross operating expenses. The gross expense ratio of the Slovenian non-life insurers increased slightly. This increase stems from FoS business, whereas the gross expense ratio of the non-life segment in Slovenia, excluding FoS business, decreased. The gross expense ratio of the non-Slovenian non-life insurers remained at the level of the previous year.

Net investment income

Net investment income of the investment portfolio of non-life insurance business totalled EUR 8.1 million in 2021, down by EUR 0.3 million from 2020, which is largely due to higher income from alternative investments. The investment return for the period was 1.1% (the higher average volume of the investment portfolio resulted in a lower return than in 2020).

On 31 May 2020, Vita was included in the Slovenian life segment, with life insurance representing the majority of its portfolio.

Income statement and statement of financial position by operating segment are presented in the notes to the financial statements, section 17.4.37 "Segment reporting". As evident from the income statement, the 2021 gross result of the Slovenian life segment declined by EUR 9.7 million year on year, which is chiefly the result of one-off income of EUR 9.0 million in 2020 recognised due to the positive difference between the fair value of net assets acquired and the purchase price of the investment in Vita.

As a result of the acquisition of Vita, gross premiums written of Slovenian life insurers increased by 40.0% compared to the previous year. In 2021, gross premiums written by the life insurance part of Zavarovalnica Sava in Slovenia dropped by 3.1% year on year. Despite favourable sales of new policies, the companies did not manage to write sufficient new business to fully offset premiums lost due to policy maturities, surrenders and deaths.

Non-Slovenian life insurers managed to increase gross premiums written by 2.8%. The Kosovo and Serbian insurers increased gross premiums written through their own sales network and enhanced cooperation with external sales channels, posting large growth in gross premiums written (Kosovo by 36.5%, Serbia by 19.7%). Lower overall growth was the result of lower gross premiums written at the Croatian branch of Zavarovalnica Sava due to lower sales through bank sales channels and the optimisation of the portfolio with the aim of improving operating profitability.

Gross life insurance premiums by class of business, including riders

The composition of gross life premiums written changed upon the acquisition of Vita, as it has a larger share of unit-linked policies in its portfolio, while the proportion of traditional insurance at Zavarovalnica Sava has been decreasing.

Gross claims paid in Slovenia declined year on year, even though Vita was part of the Group portfolio for a longer time, because maturity payments decreased by EUR 21.1 million in the Slovenian part of Zavarovalnica Sava. Maturity payments declined in traditional life insurance (EUR 32.4 million in 2021), down EUR 22.3 million year on year. Unit-linked life business, where policyholders bear the investment risk, paid out EUR 15.8 million in maturity benefits, up EUR 1.2 million from the previous year.

The reasons for the difference between net claims incurred, including the change in net other provisions, and unit-linked provisions of Slovenian com -

panies are the full-year inclusion of Vita and the movement in unit prices of unitlinked life funds. Fund unit prices move in line with developments in the financial markets, which were more favourable in 2021 than in the previous year (downturn in equity markets in April 2020). While this does not affect the result of unitlinked life insurance, it is reflected in the movement of provisions.

Gross claims paid by non-Slovenian insurers were lower than in the previous year, as the Croatian branch office made fewer maturity payments on life insurance policies.

Net claims incurred, including the change in other provisions and the change in the provision for unit-linked business in 2021, rose mainly reflecting the events of the previous year – the Croatian part of Zavarovalnica Sava saw more of credit life policy expire in 2020, and the volume of surrenders in creased as well, which reduced mathematical provisions and consequently reduced net claims incurred, including the change in other provisions and the change in the provision for unit-linked business.

Acquisition costs and other operating expenses were higher than in the previous year, mainly due to Vita's consolidation period.

Gross expense ratio, life segment

The gross expense ratio dropped by 2.1 p.p. year on year as the result of the inclusion of Vita, which, thanks to its specific sales model, operates on a lower gross expense ratio. Life insurance companies outside Slovenia saw a decline in the gross expense ratio of 1.1 p.p. as premiums in Serbia and Kosovo grew faster than expenses.

Net investment income

Net investment income of the life insurance investment portfolio declined by EUR 5.9 million compared to 2021, as Zavarovalnica Sava generated higher gains on the disposal of financial investments and higher interest income due to the full consolidation of Vita. As a result, net investment income also improved by 0.5 p.p.

The annuity part of this segment comprises the operations of Sava Pokojninska. This company's policyholders were the main contributors to gross premiums written, which were higher than those of the previous year. Some premiums were also contributed by policyholders who were members of other pension insurance providers and who, at retirement, chose to have their pension paid out by Sava Pokojninska (transfer of assets).

The increase in assets in annuity funds due to policyholders reaching retirement age is also reflected in annuity payouts, which is recorded under gross claims paid.

The change in other net technical provisions is the result of premiums paid in and claims paid out.

  • income of the Slovenian asset management company mainly relating to entry and exit charges, and management fees charged for managing mutual funds.

Other technical income and other income increased in all companies in this segment, with the largest increase at Sava Infond, which demonstrates their strong performance in 2021, when the value of assets under management increased significantly.

8 Review of operations of the Sava Insurance Group and

The liability funds of the Slovenian pension company generated a 3.4% return in 2021 (2020: -0.3%), and the mandatory and voluntary pension funds managed by the North Macedonian pension company achieved a return of 9.1% (2020: 3.3%); the Slovenian company for managing mutual funds achieved a high return of 15.9% on mutual funds (2020: 5.6%). The relatively poor net investment income generated in 2020 mostly reflected unfavourable developments in financial markets, whereas financial market trends in 2021 were very favourable.

EUR 2021 2020 Index
Operating expenses 11,362,609 9,595,326 118.4

Operating expenses rose reflecting growth in business volumes and increase in assets under management, with the rise in operating expenses lagging well behind growth in revenue, which boosted profitability in this operating segment.

Profit or loss before tax 5,644,703 1,961,393 287.8

The pensions and asset management segment improved its pre-tax profit by EUR 3.7 million in 2021 year on year. This pre-tax profit stems from growth in assets under management due to increasing inflows and positive developments in capital markets, as well as from improved cost efficiency of operations. All companies in this segment improved their results.

Net investment income

Income, expenses and net investment income relating to the investment portfolio (pensions and asset management segment)53

Net investment income of the investment portfolio of pension companies remained at the same level as in 2020. The investment return for the period was 1.4% (the higher average volume of the investment portfolio resulted in a lower return than in 2020).

8.1.5 Other

TBS Team 24 contributed EUR 1.1 million to the consolidated result of the segment in 2021 (2020: EUR 0.8 million), and the companies DCB and G2I contributed EUR 0.8 million (2020: EUR -0.4 million).

Interest expense on subordinated debt totalled EUR 2.9 million in 2021 (2020: EUR 2.9 million).

Gross premiums written sourced outside the Group grew by EUR 5.3 million. Premiums for past underwriting years grew by EUR 7.3 million in 2021, mainly for proportional reinsurance, while premiums for the current underwriting year were slightly lower (by 2.1% and EUR 2.0 million, respectively). After the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, we estimated that, due to the expected decline in the GDPs of the countries where we have clients, the pre mium volume for the financial year would be 10% below the target figure set when underwriting the business based on cedant figures. In 2021, we abandoned this assumption in view of the economic situa tion and treated premiums for the 2020 underwriting year the same as the premiums of other underwriting years. We have seen similar responses from other reinsurers in international markets.

Group gross premiums written decreased by EUR 6.9 million in 2021 as a result of the cancellation of FoS business due to deterio rating market conditions and stricter Company criteria.

Net claims incurred decreased by 12.7% compared to 2020. Gross claims paid increased in 2021 because of storm and flood events in western Europe (mainly in Germany, Belgium and Austria) and China as well as a fire loss in Suriname. Despite the high gross claims paid related to the floods in western Europe, their impact on net claims incurred was relatively low owing to reinsurance protection. Developments of past underwriting years also had a positive effect on the movement of claims incurred in 2021. The decrease compared with 2020 was also the result of the detrimental effects of Covid-19 and FoS business in 2020.

Sava Re's net incurred loss ratio was 65.3% in 2021, an improvement of 12.7 p.p. compared to the previous year.

acquisition costs as a percentage of gross premiums written increased by 2.7 p.p. year on year to 23.8%.

Other operating expenses of Sava Re comprise expenses relating to reinsurance business (51%) and expenses associated with the administration of the Group (49%). Only the former expenses are included in the calculations of the combined ratios of reinsurance business. Compared

to 2020, total other operating expenses rose by 12.2% due to higher costs of labour and services related to the Group's administration, the introduction of international financial reporting standards IFRS 17 and IFRS 9, the upgrade and introduction of new IT solutions and services linked to the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR), which aims to increase transparency related to sustainability features and investments for end consumers. Expenses by nature are shown in note 36 of the notes to the financial statements.

Reinsurance commission income grew primarily because of higher commission income that Sava Re received from its retrocessionaires participating in the reinsurance programmes of the Slovenian cedants.

Net investment income

In 2021, policy acquisition expenses (commissions) rose by 11.7%, reflecting higher commissions for the Slovenian part of the portfolio, which are higher when business performs better. We see favourable developments in old underwriting years and have high expectations for the results of more recent years. Consequently, the share of Operating expenses

Due to the prescribed income statement scheme, net investment income and return on investment also include exchange differences. The effect of exchange differences does not impact profit or loss, since the Company strives for maximum currency matching of investments and liabilities. For this reason, net investment income and return on investment are shown below, excluding foreign exchange differences. The total impact of exchange differences on the result is set out in the notes to the financial statement of the annual report, section 17.6.4.1.4 "Currency risk".

Net investment income of the investment portfolio is significantly higher because the Group companies did not pay any dividends in 2020 owing to the Covid-19 situation. This is also why income from investments in subsidiary companies were lower than in the previous year.

Compared to 2020, investment portfolio expenses, excluding exchange differences, dropped by EUR 3.5 million. Compared to 2020, the Company did not realise the expenses of subsidiary and associate companies (2020: EUR 2.6 million) or impairments of financial investments EUR 0.4 million).

9.1.1.2 Assets held for the benefit of policyholders who bear the investment risk

Life policies where the investment risk is born by policyholders are marketed by Zavarovalnica Sava and Vita. Most funds of these policyholders, i.e. EUR 517.4 million, were invested in financial investments, whereas EUR 14.7 million was held in cash. The EUR 111.4 million increase in assets compared to the previous year was due to inflows from life insurance policies and the appreciation of these investments thanks to favourable conditions in the capital markets.

9.1.1.3 Reinsurers' share of technical provisions

The reinsurers' share of technical provisions (9) increased by EUR 15.2 million or 35.6% compared to the previous year, which is wholly related to the reinsurance segment and is a result of the storm losses in western Europe reinsured against catastrophic events.

9.1.1.4 Investment contract assets

Investment contract assets (10) comprise liability fund assets relating to the group of life cycle funds managed by the Sava Pokojninska pension company for the benefit of policyholders and assets of the annuity fund the policies of which do not qualify as insurance contracts. As at 31 December 2021, investment contract assets totalled EUR 172.8 million, up 8.9% compared to 31 December 2020.

This increase in investment contract assets was mainly due to net flows of EUR 6.4 million (in 2021 inflows totalled EUR 15.2 million and outflows including entry and exit charges were EUR 8.8 million), net investment income of EUR 5.5 million generated in 2021 and EUR 2.1 million relating to appreciation of assets backing annuity policies.

Assets under the management of Sava Penzisko Društvo are not included in the Group's statement of financial position; these amounts are disclosed in section 8.1.4 "Pensions and asset management".

9.1.1.5 Receivables

Total receivables (11) were down 2.6%, or EUR 3.9 million, year on year. Receivables arising out of primary insurance operations decreased by EUR 6.7 million, owing mainly to the non-life segment and the withdrawal from FoS business. Receivables arising out of primary insurance operations over 90 days decreased (by EUR 7.2 million), whereas not-past-due receivables arising out of primary insurance operations increased.

Receivables arising out of reinsurance and co-insurance business increased by EUR 3.0 million, mainly notpast-due claims receivables. Receivables arising out of reinsurance and co-insurance business saw the largest increase (EUR 1.9 million) in Slovenian non-life business; receivables relating to the reinsurance segment grew by EUR 0.7 million, and in the international non-life segment by EUR 0.5 million.

CONTENTS

Gross provisions for the reinsurance segment rose by EUR 35 million due to adverse claims devel opment (described in more detail in section 8.1.1 "Reinsurance: Net claims incurred"). Unearned premiums were EUR 0.2 million lower, mainly on account of the dynamics of reinsurance underwrit ing (2020: increase of EUR 2.2 million).

Gross provisions for the non-life segment con tracted by EUR 7.8 million. Of which the growth in unearned premiums was EUR 3.5 million (2020: increase of EUR 0.3 million).

Gross mathematical provisions contracted by EUR 22.1 million, largely as a result of policy ma turities and a shift to unit-linked insurance.

The provision for bonuses, rebates and cancellations accounts for only a small proportion of provisions and remained flat compared to year-end 2020.

Other gross technical provisions include gross provisions for unexpired risks. These dropped by EUR 1.3 million from year-end 2020, which mainly relates to the Slovenian non-life segment (discon tinuation of FoS business) and, to a minor extent, to the reinsurance segment (a smaller volume of marine reinsurance business with results poorer than expected).

9.1.2.3 Technical provisions for the benefit of life insurance policyholders who bear the investment risk

Gross technical provisions for unit-linked life insurance (4) increased by EUR 114.6 million, which is due to portfolio growth, including single premium policies, movement in fund unit prices and the additional effect of the diversion of assets from guaranteed traditional life (policies with expired guaranteed periods) to unit-linked life business of Vita.

9.1.2.4 Investment contract liabilities

Investment contract liabilities (7) of Sava Pokojninska rose by EUR 14.1 million in line with investment contract assets, driven largely by new premium contributions, payouts, and changes in the unit prices of funds.

9.1.2.5 Other liabilities

Other liabilities (11) rose by EUR 22.6 million due to other accrued costs (expenses) and deferred revenue in Slovenian non-life business (a high-value insurance policy was taken out in 2021, effective in 2022).

9.1.3 Financing sources and their maturity

As at 31 December 2021, the Sava Insurance Group held EUR 504.1 million in equity and EUR 74.9 million in sub ordinated liabilities. In October 2019, the parent compa ny issued subordinated bonds with a scheduled maturity in 2039 and an early recall option for 7 November 2029. The bond is admitted to trading on the regulated market of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange. As at 31 December 2021, the market price of the bond was 103.532% and the market value EUR 78,065,096 (31 December 2020: the market price 100.353%, the market value EUR 75,680,846).

9.1.4 Cash flow

In 2021, the Sava Insurance Group generated an operating cash flow of EUR 121.0 million (2020: EUR 62.5 million). Net cash from operating activities was positively impacted by the inclusion of Vita in the consolidated financial state ments and fewer policy maturities at Zavarovalnica Sava.

In the same period, the Sava Insurance Group recorded neg ative net investment cash flow of EUR 97.0 million (2020: EUR 79.7 million) due to the purchase of securities as the result of higher cash flow and the purchase of property and equipment assets (office building of a subsidiary). Excluding the receipts and disbursements relating to the investments of life insurance policyholders who bear the investment risk, the negative net cash flow would have totalled EUR 54.5 million.

The Group posted net cash used in financing activities in the amount of EUR 18.8 million (2020: EUR 6.0 million). In June 2021, Sava Re paid out dividends in the amount of EUR 13.2 million (2020: EUR 0 million) and paid inter est on subordinated debt in the amount of EUR 2.9 million (2020: EUR 2.9 million).

The closing balance of cash and cash equivalents increased by EUR 5.2 million. The net cash flow for 2021 was EUR 28.4 million above the year-on-year figure.

Compared to the previous year, the investment portfolio grew by EUR 64.9 million. The increase was largely due to dividend income from subsidiaries (EUR 50.4 million). Other growth drivers were positive cash flow from the core reinsurance business (EUR 17.8 million) and net exchange gains (EUR 3.7 million). The negative effects include the payment of interest on Sava Re's subordinated bond issued (EUR 2.9 million) and the negative fair value reserve (EUR 2.4 million).

The largest share of the investment portfolio as at 31 December 2021 were financial investments in subsidiary and associate companies, which accounted for 47.1% (31 December 2020: 51.2%). Their share in the composition of the investment portfolio decreased by 4.1 p.p. Fixed-rate financial investments accounted for 45.4% and increased by 3.9% compared to the previous year end, mainly due to dividends from subsidiaries. There was an increase in alternative investments, specifically infrastructure

and real-estate funds, which totalled EUR 19.0 million, accounting for 2.8% of the investment portfolio as at 31 December 2021. Owing to the time lag between the commitment and the actual investing, the uncalled commitment relating to infrastructure and real-estate funds is disclosed off the balance sheet (amounting to EUR 8.5 million as at 31 December 2021). The lower balance of loans granted is linked to the maturity of loans granted to subsidiaries.

9.2.1.2 Reinsurers' share of technical provisions

The reinsurers' share of technical provisions (9) increased by 51.8%, or EUR 16.6 million, compared to year-end

Technical provisions (3), the second-largest item on the liabilities side, increased by 11.4%, or EUR 33.9 million, compared to 31 December 2020. This is largely due to the growth in the gross claims provision (16.4% or EUR 39.3 million), which increased in the non-Group business portfolio by EUR 35.9 million due to portfolio growth and major loss events over the recent years. The claims provision in the Group's portfolio increased by EUR 3.4 million, chiefly on account of claims from FoS business. The movement in technical provisions is discussed in detail in note 24 of the notes to the financial statements.

9.2.2.4 Liabilities from operating activities

Liabilities from operating activities (9) as at year-end 2021 decreased by 2.5%, or EUR 1.2 million, from 31 December 2020. Liabilities from insurance business decreased by EUR 1.0 million due to lower commission liabilities. Liabilities from reinsurance and co-insurance business increased by EUR 1.8 million as a result of higher liabilities for premiums. Tax liabilities increased by EUR 0.4 million (loss in 2020, profit in 2021).

9.2.3 Other investments of Sava Re in the insurance industry

9.2.4 Financing sources and their maturity

As at 31 December 2021, Sava Re held EUR 371.2 million in equity capital and EUR 74.9 million in subordinated liabilities. In October 2019, it issued subordinated bonds with a scheduled maturity date of 2039 and with an early recall option for 7 November 2029. The bond is admitted to trading on the regulated market of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange. As at 31 December 2021, the market price of the bond was 103.532% and the market value EUR 78,065,096 (31 December 2020: the market price 100.353%, the market value EUR 75,680,846).

9.2.5 Cash flow

In 2021, the Company had a positive cash flow from operating activities in the amount of EUR 26.5 million (2020: EUR 33.3 million). Net cash from financing activities declined, reflecting lower net premiums and higher net claims.

In the same period, Sava Re recorded negative net investment cash flow of EUR 8.7 million (2020: EUR 56.2 million). Net cash used decreased because of dividends received from subsidiaries in 2021. 2020 was impacted by the acquisition of Vita.

In June 2021, Sava Re paid out dividends in the amount of EUR 13.2 million (2020: EUR 0 million) and paid interest on subordinated debt in the amount of EUR 2.9 million (2020: EUR 2.9 million), which resulted in net cash used in financing activities.

The closing balance of cash and cash equivalents at yearend 2021 showed an increase of EUR 1.7 million. The net cash flow for the first half of 2021 was EUR 27.6 million above the year-on-year figure.

10.4.1 Types and scope of training

We are aware that professional development of each employee is a prerequisite for the development and attainment of goals at the individual level as well as at the level of each company and the entire Sava Insurance Group. We offer our employees interesting work in culturally diverse international environments. We are creating a working environment that supports their professional and personal development.

In the Sava Insurance Group we build employee's knowledge and competences through numerous external and in-house training programmes. We encourage them to pursue additional training and education in their respective areas of expertise. Our employees took part in group and individual training programmes in leadership skills, communication, efficient sales, innovation, teamwork, change acceptance and management, and time management.

We encourage employees in all companies to reintegrate into formal education. Companies enable and encourage employees to obtain and retain licenses required for sales personnel and other professional staff.

At Sava Re we recognise the importance of professional training and involve our employees in the process based on the requirements of individual positions. We encourage all employees to participate, taking into account their personal and career development needs.

We are aware of the importance of intergenerational cooperation and the added value of the work environment that fosters cooperation between young talents and experienced employees. New employees take part in a tailored induction programme, which allows them to promptly and effectively integrate into the work process. They are assigned a mentor and a leader who offer them professional support in preparing for more complex and responsible work. Performance is regularly reviewed at the end of the induction period.

We developed leadership competencies of future leaders and those who recently took up a managerial position using the DNLA test, and thus obtained structured feedback. A group of leaders and high-potential staff took part in a leadership development programme that lasted several days. Leaders also received peer-to-peer coaching in various leadership skills required in leading and managing individuals and teams.

We are aware that our employees have a great deal of expertise, and it is therefore important that we continue to promote knowledge sharing and transfer of good practices through internal seminars, despite the ongoing epidemic. Most in-house seminars in 2021 were delivered in a customised format of short videoconferences. In addition to professional content, we prepared online training sessions on change management for all participants of internal seminars.

We organised two international strategic conferences, getting together employees from the entire Sava Insurance Group to exchange experiences, analyse current challenges, share best practices and prepare improvements that contribute to more efficient operations. Both conferences were held in hybrid form, live and via video conference. Cybersecurity was in focus at the spring conference, whereas the autumn conference addressed digital transformation in human resources management, leadership and customer centricity.

The number of training attendees in the Sava Insurance Group was roughly the same in 2021 as the previous year, but the number of training hours was substantially higher, It rose by 21.6% in 2021, which could be attributed to the training programmes being adapted to the epidemic situation.

In 2021, the number of internal and external training hours in the Sava Insurance Group increased compared to the previous year. The number of internal training hours was even higher than it was before the outbreak of the Covid-19 epidemic, which indicates that we have successfully adapted our training programmes to location-independent online delivery.

Sava Re has recorded a substantial increase in the number of internal training hours, which was 81.3% higher than the previous year.

On average, the percentage of training hours in both the Sava Insurance Group and Sava Re was higher for men than for women.

10.4.2 Succession planning

Group companies adopted a procedure for succession planning for members of management bodies. The supervisory boards of Group companies monitor the situation regarding each member of the management body. Annual performance appraisal interviews with these members also cover the issue of succession planning.

We encourage all companies to include all key executives in their processes for determining the foreseen successors and potential successors.

At Sava Re, we have set up a process designed to identify potential substitutes and successors for members of the management board and for directors directly reporting to the management board.

In annual interviews, all management board members and all directors directly reporting to the management board identify potential substitutes in case of unforeseen lengthy absence and identify potential successors in case of the termination of the employee's position.

All management board members and directors directly reporting to the management board have designated their foreseen substitutes for key areas of their responsibility for cases of unforeseen longer absences. Most of them also identified a potential successor within the company or Group. We believe that in the case of an unforeseen departure of an individual member of the management board or of a director the position could, at least temporarily, be filled by identified potential replacements or successors. In the short term, a single director could run two related organisational units.

We are aware how important our key professional and promising employees are, and through training we prepare them for more demanding tasks and posts associated with greater responsibilities. The scope of the training programmes that we organise and conduct demonstrates how committed we are to nurturing professional development and progress of all our employees.

The process of identifying and developing potential successors will be further encouraged and developed. 77 GRI 404-01.

10.5 Management and motivation79

79

At the Sava Insurance Group, we foster an environment in which our employees develop and realise their potential. We recognise and reward good performance. We invest in the development of leadership and cooperation competencies. We encourage employee motivation and commitment to achieving common goals. We revamp and adapt our processes in order to provide for effective work organisation and engagement of employees in various projects.

10.5.1 Leader development

In each company, leaders are the key employees who have a significant impact in building a positive work climate, employee commitment, satisfaction and loyalty. It is therefore of utmost importance that we educate them and build their leadership competencies in order to develop a modern organisational culture.

At Sava Re, we have established a process of the analysis and development of leadership competencies for existing leaders, new leaders, and other key and potential members of senior management. We evaluated the competencies of a team of new leaders and potential successors at managerial positions, and prepared personal development plans based on obtained results and feedback. They built their leadership and cooperation skills at tailored, handson workshops, in which they tested leadership theory through teamwork and role play.

We also organised another peer-to-peer coaching and a final, live group workshop in 2021, at which the leaders discussed topics such as: employee commitment, workplace health activities for leaders, challenges and opportunities in the post-Covid period, and coaching on leaderships skills.

10.5.2 Measuring organisational climate

In 2021, we measured the organisational climate, and employee satisfaction and commitment in non-Slovenian companies using the SiOK methodology. The participating companies were: Sava Neživotno Osiguranje (Serbia), Sava Životno Osiguranje (Serbia) Sava Osiguruvanje (North Macedonia), Sava Penzisko Društvo (North Macedonia), Sava Osiguranje (Montenegro), and Illyria Life (Kosovo).

Altogether 617 employees responded, which is 70% of those invited to participate. Top-rated categories of the organisational climate were attitude to quality, innovation and initiative, and loyalty to the organisation. Rewarding, career development, professional qualification and learning were rated the lowest by employees. Employees were most satisfied with their supervisors, working hours and leadership, and least satisfied with opportunities for promotion and salaries.

The commitment analysis identified 52.8% of committed employees at companies outside the EU, 35.6% of non-committed employees, and 11.7% of actively non-committed employees.

Each company received an analysis of results, based on which we defined further steps and activities that will additionally contribute to an even better organisational climate and strengthen employee commitment.

10.5.3 Never Alone project

The employment market is very competitive, and every company aspires to attract staff with relevant skills and competencies that will help shape the company's future. In the Sava Insurance Group, we are aware of how important an attractive brand is for the employer, as it allows us to communicate with prospective employees and maintain good relations with existing ones, thus increasing their loyalty and satisfaction. With this in mind, we continued in 2021 to perform many of the activities designed for the Never Alone project. The project involves an analysis of the current situation, for which we measured the climate, and employee satisfaction and commitment in non-Slovenian companies, and provided an in-depth analysis of the human resources function across companies. We developed the visual identity of the employer brand for the Sava Insurance Group and an individual Group company and started to use it in practice. We also embarked on the overhaul or establishment of a new communication infrastructure for our employees, which encompasses a new intranet site for the Sava Insurance Group, Sava Re and Zavarovalnica Sava.

10.5.4 Employee benefits

In the Sava Insurance Group, we provide for employee satisfaction also through various financial (e.g. supplementary pension insurance and personal accident insurance) and non-financial incentives (e.g. flexible working hours, the possibility of homeworking, recreation, lease of holiday facilities, fruit in the office), which individual companies offer to their employees. In 2021, we organised many social events and meetings for our employees on various occasions.

Sava Re offers employees supplementary pension insurance, personal accident insurance, accident insurance for family members and business travel insurance. We organised numerous events aimed at bringing people together and events that aim to contribute to a better world and the environment in which we live (e.g. an online New Year's party, Heart for the World activities, online show for children and gift giving, a small gift for new parents, a summer picnic, health day activities, Women's Day, Online Coffee). Most of these events were held online.

10.5.5 Annual performance appraisal interviews80

In the Sava Insurance Group, we are aware of the importance of monitoring our employees' progress and providing them with feedback through regular annual performance appraisal interviews. Group companies that recognise the added value of employee satisfaction and commitment use them as an important leadership tool. Most companies conduct annual performance appraisal interviews at least for employees up to the upper-management level.

80 81

We encourage our employees to pursue the goals that relate to the Company's strategy, which in effect implies that each employee contributes to the attainment of common goals. We regularly review employee progress, which allows us to promptly evaluate performance and coordinate our efforts in the process towards achieving our goals.

In 2021, Sava Re focused on setting quality goals and conducted hands-on workshops in which we examined examples of good practices. In addition to management by objectives, the emphasis was on monitoring satisfaction factors based on which we are going to introduce improvements and various activities aimed at fostering a positive workplace climate. As part of annual performance appraisal interviews, employees and supervisors also discuss past and required education programmes, training and other plans.

In 2021, the Sava Insurance Group conducted interviews with 1,464 employees, which accounts for half of its total workforce. All Sava Re employees took part in annual performance appraisal interviews.

10.5.6 Health and safety at work81

Across the Sava Insurance Group, companies take all necessary occupational safety and health, and fire safety measures, as required by law and internal acts. Our companies promptly refer their employees to pre-recruitment and periodical work-related medical examinations as well as to new and periodic training in occupational safety and health, and fire safety.

Our goal is to ensure that our people feel safe in and outside their workplace, and concern for occupational safety and health is therefore one of the priorities of the Sava Insurance Group, which involves all employees, the management, the human resources department, the accredited occupational health provider and the relevant external professional service. Every year, Group companies carry out various health promotion measures in line with their organisational capacities. We encourage them to organise various health-related activities, from lectures to physical recreation.

CONTENTS

In 2021, we carried out all statutory occupational health and safety, and fire protection measures. Additional attention was paid to new and improved health promotion measures and to ongoing preventative measures and workplace adjustments aimed at protecting employees from infection with the Covid-19 virus.

Sava Re also prepared an accomplished and upgraded health promotion programme in 2021. Once again, we organised a health day for our employees, offering them a choice between five health-related activities that we adapted to the current epidemic situation. They were offered an extra day off for health promotion purposes, which they could use for one of three organised events or one of two days dedicated to a sports activity of their choice. The events were very popular with employees this year as well. Health day was attended by 109, or 76.8% of all employees.

When the epidemiological situation was worsening and most employees were working from home, we organised various stress relief activities for them. Employees met at talk meetings, took part in BURST walking workouts and relaxed through PMR – progressive muscle relaxation. We also continued with yoga practice for our employees, which took place both online and in person. In the summer months we resumed weekly fruit supply to the company headquarters, providing healthy snacks for our employees.

10.5.6.1 Prevention of bullying, harassment, and violence in the workplace

Sava Insurance Group companies take measures to prevent bullying and harassment in the workplace in accordance with local legislation.

Sava Re has adopted the "Rules on prevention and elimination of workplace violence", which provide a detailed description of procedures and mechanisms aimed at preventing and dealing with violence. The rules are available to all employees and serve to help them if they feel threatened by such conduct. Employees can also turn to trusted persons within the company, who are there to offer support and advice.

As in the previous year, there were no reports of harassment, bullying or other form of violence in the workplace in 2021. We promote a culture of open and respectful relationships on which we build a positive organisational climate. We promote employee interaction and organise various formal and informal meetings to this end, while encouraging them to communicate with each other.

10.5.6.2 Protection of health and safety at work during the Covid-19 epidemic

For yet another year, we were forced to work in novel health-related conditions brought about by the Covid-19 epidemic. In the Sava Insurance Group, we therefore continued to pay special attention and concern to the wellbeing, health and safety of our employees in order to ensure business continuity. Previously established crisis management teams that operate in our companies continued to meet and adopt necessary safety measures while ensuring adequate and timely communication with employees.

In different periods, our staff continued to work, mainly or partly, from home, which enabled us to ensure a safe workplace for all employees and business continuity for all Group companies. Our employees soon adapted to working from home and encountered no major problems as they moved their work equipment and communication to online platforms.

At Sava Re we recognised the potential of new work models and allowed our employees to occasionally work from home also after the crisis period. We continued to pursue the approved crisis management plan and entrusted the crisis management team with taking the necessary actions. The team met on a weekly basis and kept employees informed of any changes in the working conditions, public life and adopted internal measures.

At Sava Re we provided our employees with self-test kits, offered them the option of antibody testing at the competent laboratory, and provided quality disposable face masks and disinfectants. Before scheduled meetings with more than ten persons, we referred our employees to quick antigen testing to reduce the risk of transmission. We ensured that our premises were regularly ventilated, and limited visits and live meetings.

Employees at the Sava Insurance Group can join representative labour bodies in their respective companies. Any major changes are promptly communicated to employee representatives, as prescribed by law.

Employees are regularly informed of developments in Group companies through the Sava Insurance Group intranet portal.

Two representative labour bodies in Sava Re act as links between employees and the Company's management. These are the trade union and the workers' council. Their representatives represent all organisational units and participate in the drafting of internal acts of the Company and their amendments. In the past year, they took part in drafting the amendments to the "Rules on organisation of work and job systemisation" and the "Rules on working time".

Employees are informed of the Company's activities at staff meetings, which as a rule take place on a quarterly basis. The management board presents business results, goals and plans for the current period and the development strategy of the Company and the Group.

At Sava Re we keep our employees informed also through our intranet portal Savan, the Never Alone communication project, and other internal media and tools.

Below we describe the risk and capital management systems and the significant risks to which the Sava Insurance Group is exposed. These areas will be presented in more detail also in the solvency and financial condition report of Sava Re as at 31 December 2021 with auditor assurance, which will be posted on the Company's website on 26 April 2022, and in the solvency and financial condition report of the Sava Insurance Group as at 31 December 2021 with auditor assurance, which will be published on the Sava Re website on 19 May 2022.

11.1 Risk management system

The Sava Insurance Group management is aware that risk management is key to achieving operational and strategic objectives and to ensuring the long-term solvency of the Group. Therefore, the Group is continuously upgrading its risk management system at both the Group company and Group levels.

In recent years, the Sava Insurance Group has expanded its services with the integration of non-insurance companies. The risk management system is therefore based on Solvency II requirements, but additionally takes into account the legal specifics of non-insurance companies. The risk management system in these companies is adapted according to the business activities of each of them and the scope of these activities and risks to which a company is exposed.

The Group companies' risk culture and awareness of the risks to which they are exposed is essential to the security and financial soundness of the companies and the Group as a whole. To establish good risk management practices, the Group promotes a risk management culture with appropriately defined remuneration for employees, employee training, and relevant internal information flow at the individual company and Group levels.

The Sava Insurance Group has implemented a risk strategy that defines the Group's risk appetite and policies that cover the entire framework of risk management, own risk and solvency assessments, and risk management for each risk category. Based on the Group's risk strategy and policies, individual Group companies set up their own risk strategies and policies, taking into account their specificities and local legislation. The adequacy of policies underpinning the risk management system is examined annually. The risk strategy is prepared in line and simultaneously with the strategic plan.

The risk management system at the individual company and Group levels is subject to continuous improvement. Particular attention is paid to:

  • clearly-expressed risk appetite in the framework of the risk strategy and on this basis also operational limits;
  • development of own risk assessment models and upgrading of the own risk and solvency assessment (hereinafter: ORSA),
  • integration of the ORSA and risk strategy in the framework of business planning and shaping of the business strategy,
  • integration of risk management processes into business processes,
  • systematic upgrading of the internal control environment, adjustment of processes to new activities, monitoring of the occurrence of untoward events,
  • establishment of adequate risk management standards in all Group companies depending on the scope, nature and complexity of business transactions and related risks.

11.1.1 Risk management organisation

Systematic risk management includes an appropriate organisational structure and a clear delineation of respon sibilities.

The efficient functioning of the risk management system is primarily the responsibility of the Sava Re management board and the management board of each individual sub sidiary. To ensure efficient risk management, the Group uses a three lines of defence model, which clearly segre gates responsibilities and tasks among the lines:

  • The first line of defence constitutes all organisational units with operational responsibilities (development, sales, marketing and insurance management, provision of insurance services, financial operations, accounting, controlling, human resources and others).
  • The second line of defence consists of three key func tions (the risk management function, actuarial func tion, compliance function) and the risk management committee, if set up in the company.
  • The third line of defence consists of the internal audit function.

The Group's risk management system has been set up based on the top down principle, taking into account the specificities of each individual company.

The management board of each company plays a key role and bears ultimate responsibility for the effectiveness of established risk management processes and their align ment with the Group's standards and the applicable legis lation. In this regard, the management board is primarily responsible for:

• setting the risk strategy and approval of risk tolerance

• adopting policies relating to the risk management sys -

• implementing effective risk management processes in

  • limits and operational limits,
  • tem,
  • the Company,
  • input for risk-based decision making.

• monitoring operations in terms of risk and providing

The supervisory board of each individual company ap proves the risk strategy, risk management policies and the appointment of key function holders in the risk man agement system. In addition, the supervisory board anal yses periodic reports relating to risk management. A risk committee has been set up within the supervisory board of the parent company to provide relevant expertise and support in the risk management process in the Company and in the Group.

The first line of defence of each individual Group com pany involves all company employees responsible for en suring that operational tasks are performed in a manner that reduces or eliminates risks. Additionally, risk owners are responsible for individual risks listed in the risk regis ter. Line managers are responsible for ensuring that the operational performance of the processes for which they are responsible are conducted in a manner that reduces or eliminates risks, and that the frameworks laid down in the risk strategy are observed. The first line of defence is also responsible for monitoring and measuring risks, the preparation of data for regular reporting on individual areas of risk, and the identification of new risks.

Each Group company has set up the following three key functions as part of the second line of defence: the actu arial function, risk management function, and compliance function. In addition, the Group's large members have in place a risk management committee. The members of the risk management committee and key function holders are appointed by the management board; key function holder appointments additionally require the consent of the supervisory board. Each individual company ensures the independence of the key functions, which are organ ised as management support services and report directly to the management board. Their roles and responsibilities are defined in the policy of each key function or in the risk management policy that defines the risk manage ment function.

The risk management function of each individual compa ny is mainly responsible for setting up effective risk man agement processes and for the coordination of risk man agement processes already in place at the company or Group level. It is involved in all stages of the processes of identification, assessment, monitoring, management and reporting of risks. It is also involved in the preparation of the risk strategy and the setting of risk tolerance limits. The risk management function regularly reports to the risk management committee (if set up), the management and the supervisory boards, the risk committee (Sava Re) and the Group's risk management function holder, and works in cooperation with the risk management function on an ongoing basis. Furthermore, it offers support to the management board in decision-making (including in rela tion to the strategic decisions such as corporate business strategy, mergers and acquisitions, and major projects and investments).

CONTENTS

The main tasks of the actuarial function in the risk management system comprise expressing an opinion on the underwriting policy, expressing an opinion on the adequacy of reinsurance arrange ments, and independent verification and challeng ing of technical provision calculations, including assumptions, methods and expert judgment areas. The actuarial function of each individual company works in cooperation with the Group's actuarial function.

The main duties of the compliance function relat ing to the risk management system are: identifi cation, management and reporting of any instanc es of non-compliance with regulations, including monitoring of the legal environment, analysis of existing processes regarding their compliance with internal and external rules, and any changes in regulations.

Apart from the key functions, the second line of defence at Sava Re also consists of a risk man agement committee that addresses risks at the Company and Sava Insurance Group levels. Such a committee also operates in some (larger) subsid iaries. The committee includes the key represent atives of the first line of defence and the man agement board with regard to the company's risk profile. The holders of other key functions of the risk management system are also invited to attend meetings of the committee. The committee is pri marily responsible for monitoring the risk profiles of the Group and individual companies, analysing risk reports and issuing recommendations to the management board.

The third line of defence consists of the internal audit function. Employees of the Sava Re internal audit department also perform the internal audit function for other Slovenian subsidiaries under outsourcing arrangements, while other subsidiar ies have their own internal audit departments. The internal audit function operates at the individual company and Group levels and is completely in dependent from the business operations and other functions. In 2021, Group Internal Auditing was introduced in the entire Sava Insurance Group, including in non-EU based Group companies. In the context of the risk management system, the internal audit function holders are responsible for the independent analysis, verification, and assess ment of the performance and effectiveness of internal control and risk management systems.

Good practices from Sava Re's risk management model and the organisation of risk management are also transferred to other Group companies.

11.1.2 Components of the risk management system

Risk management is integrated into all stages of business management and is composed of the fol lowing key elements:

  • risk strategy,
  • risk management processes within the first and second lines of defence, and
  • the ORSA process.

11.1.2.1 Risk strategy

The Group seeks to operate in compliance with its busi ness strategy and meet the key strategic objectives while maintaining an adequate capital level. With this in mind the management board, with the consent of the Sava Re supervisory board, approved the Sava Insurance Group risk strategy for 2020–2022 in 2020, taking into ac count its risk-bearing capacity. Each individual Group company drafts its own risk strategy by taking into ac count the Group's risk strategy. The Group document sets:

  • the company's risk appetite,
  • key indicators, and
  • risk tolerance limits.

The key areas on which risk appetite is based are:

  • the solvency ratio,
  • the profitability of operating segments,
  • the volatility of operating results by operating seg ment, and
  • liquidity indicators.

Each individual Group company sets its own risk strategy, risk tolerance limits and operational limits based on the Group's risk appetite. Risk tolerance limits are limits set for individual risk categories included in individual compa nies' risk profiles, determining approved deviations from planned values. These limits are set based on the results of the sensitivity analysis, stress tests and scenarios, and professional judgment.

Individual Group companies set operational limits, such as (re)insurance underwriting limits and investment lim its, in order to ensure that the activities of the first line of defence are carried out in accordance with the set risk appetite. In addition, each Group company ensures that it has in place well-defined and established escalation paths and management actions in the case of any breach of operational limits.

For periodic monitoring of compliance with the risk strat egy, individual Group companies define a minimum set of risk measures for each risk category to allow for moni toring of the Group's and each Group company's current risk profile and capital position. These risk measures are regularly monitored at the Group and individual company levels.

11.1.2.2 Risk management processes

Risk management processes are inherently connected with and incorporated into the basic processes conducted at the individual company and Group levels. All organisa tional units are involved in risk management processes.

The chief risk management processes are:

  • risk identification,
  • risk assessment (measuring),
  • risk monitoring,
  • management), and
  • risk reporting.

• determining appropriate risk control measures (risk

Risk identification

Risk management processes are incorporated into all three lines of defence of the risk management process. The roles of individual lines of defence are defined in the risk management policy. Risk management processes are also integrated into the decision-making system. All im portant and strategic business decisions are also evaluat ed in terms of risk.

In the process of risk identification, each individual Group company identifies the risks to which it is exposed. The key risks compiled in each company's risk register, con stituting the company's risk profile, are reviewed on a regular basis and new risks are added if so required. Risk identification at the Group level is conducted in the same way.

CONTENTS

Risk identification in individual Group companies and at Group level is both a top-down and a bottom-up process. The top-down risk identification process is conducted by the risk management function, the risk management committee and the management board of each Group company. Such identification of new and emerging risks is based on monitoring of the legal and business envi ronment, market developments and trends, and expert knowledge. This approach is mainly used with strategic risks, such as reputational risk and regulatory risk.

Bottom-up risk identification takes place in individu al organisational units and with risk owners (first line of defence). A Group company's risk thus identified is cat egorised and incorporated into the relevant monitoring, measuring, managing and reporting processes.

Risk identification is performed on an ongoing basis, es pecially as part of business planning and any major pro jects and business initiatives such as launching of a new product, investment in a new class of assets, acquisitions and other.

Risk assessment (measurement)

The Group has in place regular risk assessment (meas urement) processes for all the risks to which individual companies or the Group are exposed. Both qualitative and quantitative methods are used to measure risk. A modelling department has been set up on the Sava Insur ance Group level, which develops quantitative models for Group-wide risk assessment.

Risks are thus measured:

  • using the Solvency II standard formula,
  • by calculating the overall solvency needs within the own risk and solvency assessment (ORSA),
  • by conducting and analysing stress tests and scenarios, • through qualitative risk assessment in the risk register, • using various risk measures allowing simplified meas-
  • urement and monitoring of the current risk profile.

Risk monitoring

Risk monitoring is conducted at several levels: at the lev el of individual organisational units and risk owners, risk management departments, the risk management com mittee, the management board, the supervisory board's risk committee (Sava Re) and at the supervisory board level of each Group company. In addition, each Group company's risk profile is monitored at the Group level in terms of impact on the Group's risk profile. A standard set of risk measures is defined for risk monitoring, and Group companies follow it on a regular basis. Both risks and risk management measures are subject to monitoring and control. Adverse events and appropriate corrective measures to prevent the recurrence of an individual event are also monitored.

Risk management

The management board of each Group company is re sponsible for risk management and the use of various risk management techniques and actions. In its decisions, the management board takes into account the cost benefit aspect of actions as well as recommendations, if any, is sued by the risk management committee and key func tions.

Whenever the need arises to adopt a new risk control measure, the relevant company conducts an analysis of the measure in terms of economic and financial viability. Elimination or mitigation of individual risks must be more cost effective than mitigation of the potential impact should the risk materialise, taking into full account the probability of such an event and all its implications.

In practice, it is already in the business planning process that a Group company examines the impact of the busi ness strategy on its capital position, both with regard to the regulator as well as with regard to the own risk and solvency assessment. If during the financial year, deci sions are taken that have a significant impact on the risk profile but have not been assessed in terms of risk during the business planning process, the relevant company as sesses the impact of such decisions on its risk profile and capital adequacy, and verifies compliance with the risk appetite. If a business decision could have a significant impact also on the Group's risk profile, such impact on the Group's risk profile and capital adequacy is also as sessed. If any business decision fails to comply with the risk appetite or any risk tolerance limit is exceeded, the company is required to document such deviation and take relevant action to resolve the situation.

Risk reporting

Periodic risk reporting has been set up at the large Group companies and at the Group level. Risk owners report on each risk category to the risk management function, including a predetermined set of significant risk meas ures and qualitative information. Based on this, the risk management function in cooperation with risk managers prepares a risk report covering each individual compa ny's entire risk profile. The report is first discussed by the company's risk management committee (if the company has one), followed by the management board, risk com mittee (Sava Re) and the company's supervisory board. Finally, a company's risk management function submits the report to the Group's risk management function.

11.1.2.3 Own risk and solvency assessment

In addition to these risk management processes, EUbased Group (re)insurance companies and the Group also perform an ORSA, which is defined in the own risk and solvency assessment policy. ORSA is a process that includes the identification of the differences between a company's or the Group's risk profile and the assump tions of the standard formula, the own assessment of solvency needs, capital adequacy projections, stress tests and scenarios, and the establishment of the link between the risk profile and capital management. In ORSA, all material risks, whether quantifiable or not, are assessed that may have an impact on the operations of the Group or a Group company from either an economic or a regu latory perspective. The 2022 ORSA also includes climate change risk considered and assessed qualitatively, and two climate scenarios.

As a rule, the ORSA process is conducted annually; an ad hoc ORSA is performed in the event of a significant change in the risk profile. EU-based Group insurers and the Group report to the regulator on the ORSA (at least) on an annual basis. Every year, ORSA is more closely in tegrated with other processes, in particular with risk and capital management and business planning. The Group's risk management committee and company management boards are actively involved in the ORSA throughout the process. Employees from different departments take part in the process, as we wish to obtain as complete and up dated a picture of a company's risk profile as possible.

The primary objective of the ORSA is to better under stand own risk profile and the standard formula, and to analyse the impact of the changes in the risk profile on capital adequacy over the next three years. ORSA is an integral part of the decision-making process conducted to ensure that the key decisions and the business strate gy are adopted with consideration of risks and associated capital requirements. Based on ORSA results we also check the compliance of the business strategy with the risk strategy. This establishes the link between the busi ness strategy, the risks taken in the short, medium and longer term, and the capital requirements arising from those risks and capital management.

11.2 Capital management

The capital management policy lays down objectives and key activities related to capital management. Capital management is inseparable from the risk strategy, which defines the risk appetite.

The Group's capital management objectives are:

  • solvency, in the range of the optimal long-term capi talisation as defined in its risk strategy;
  • adequate degree of financing flexibility;
  • ability to achieve adequate profitability for operating segments that tie up capital;
  • ability to achieve an adequate return on equity or ade quate dividend yields for shareholders.

The Group manages its capital to ensure that each Group company has available, on an ongoing basis, sufficient funds to meet its obligations and regulatory capital re quirements. The composition of own funds held to ensure capital adequacy must comply with regulatory require ments and ensure an optimal balance between debt and equity capital. The amount of own funds of each Group company and the Group must be sufficient, at all times, to meet the statutory solvency capital requirement, as well as to satisfy the requirements of its target credit rating and other objectives of any Group member or the Group.

An important input element of capital management and business planning is the Group's risk strategy, including the risk appetite set out therein. The Group's risk strat egy defines levels of capital adequacy. These levels serve as the basis for determining the capital adequacy of each

Group company.

The Group risk strategy in conjunction with capital ade quacy is defined so as to meet regulatory requirements and the requirements of rating agencies, and to ensure that the parent company has sufficient excess capital to cover any potential capital needs of subsidiaries in the event of a major stress scenario materialising in any of them. To this end, excess of eligible own funds is deter mined over the statutorily required.

As provided by the risk strategy, all Group subsidiaries must have, on an ongoing basis, a sufficient amount of capital available to meet solvency requirements. In addi tion, Group subsidiaries subject to the Solvency II regime must have sufficient capital to absorb small to medium fluctuations in the SCR and own funds, which may result from the standard formula methodology and the possi bility of small and medium stresses and stress scenarios materialising.

11.3 Material risks of the Sava Insurance Group

The Sava Insurance Group and Group members are ex posed to the following risks:

  • Underwriting risks arising from (re)insurance con tracts. These are associated with the risks covered under (re)insurance contracts and with directly related activities.
  • Market risk related to volatile prices of financial in struments, market prices of other assets and participa tions in other companies.
  • Credit risk arising from non-performance and changes in the credit rating of securities issuers related to the investment portfolio of Group companies, and of rein surers, intermediaries and other business partners who have outstanding liabilities to the Group companies.
  • Operational risk associated with inadequate or inef ficient internal processes, people and computer sys tems, or from external events.
  • Liquidity risks related to loss resulting from insuffi cient liquid assets when liabilities become due or in creased costs of realisation of less liquid assets.
  • Strategic risk associated with achieving the Company's strategic plans, and reputational risk, including any implications.

Individual risks are described in detail in the notes to the financial statements of the Sava Insurance Group and Sava Re (section 17.6 "Risk management").

The aim of internal auditing is to provide assurance and advice to the management board in order to add value as well as improve the effectiveness and efficiency of opera tions. Internal auditing supports the Company in achiev ing its goals through systematic and methodical assess ment of the effectiveness and efficiency of governance, risk management and internal control systems, and by providing recommendations for their improvement.

Internal auditing in the Company is carried out by an independent organisational unit, the internal audit de partment (IAD), which reports to the management board and is functionally and organisationally separate from other units of the Company. This ensures the autonomy and independence of its operation.

In accordance with the Slovenian Insurance Act and un der an outsourcing contract, Sava Re d.d. conducts the key function of internal auditing for the companies Za varovalnica Sava d.d., Sava Pokojninska Družba d.d. and Sava Infond, Družba za Upravljanje, d.o.o. for an indefi nite period. In January 2021, in compliance with the Slo venian Insurance Act, Sava Re concluded an outsourcing agreement with Vita, Življenjska Zavarovalnica, d.d. on 22 January 2021, under which the latter transferred the performance of the key function of internal auditing to Sava Re for an indefinite period.

In 2021, Sava Re's internal audit conducted audits and performed other tasks in accordance with its annual plan. A total of 37 internal audit engagements were per formed; 34 of these had been planned.

Based on all the tests carried out and methods employed in individual audit areas, the IAD considers that the inter nal controls at Sava Re are adequate and that their relia bility is good. Moreover, it believes that the governance of Sava Re has proved appropriate and is being improved on an ongoing basis to achieve major business goals, and that risks are well managed with the efficiency and econ omy of operations in mind. However, there remains room for improving the operation of the system. The audit engagements revealed individual irregularities and weak nesses, to which the IAD drew attention, recommending these be remedied to improve control procedures, corpo rate governance and risk management. This is to increase the efficiency of internal controls and regularity of oper ations.

Periodic IAD reviews were also focused on establishing the probability of fraud as well as any exposure and vul nerability to IT risks. Control systems have been set up in audited areas and are operating to prevent fraud.

The IAD reports quarterly to the management board, the audit committee and the supervisory board on completed auditing engagements, the effectiveness and efficiency of control systems, corporate governance, risk man agement, identified breaches and irregularities, and the status of recommendations. In addition, it prepared an annual report on its activities in 2021, which is part of the materials for the general meeting of shareholders.

The external quality assessment of the internal audit at Sava Re d.d. (carried out once every five years) was con ducted by Deloitte Revizija d.o.o. in 2019. The assess ment of the IAD's operations confirmed compliance of the internal audit with the International Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing, Code of Ethics of Internal Auditors and the Code of Internal Auditing Principles.

While strengthening the IAD in 2021, we further inten sified the implementation of the new software to support the comprehensive internal auditing process, also at the Sava Insurance Group internal audit level. In 2021, Group Internal Auditing was introduced in the entire Sava In surance Group, including in non-EU based Group com panies. The IAD regularly monitors the development and quality of the internal audit departments in subsidiaries, providing them the necessary professional assistance, and in 2022 this will be further refined through the develop ment of the Group Internal Audit.

ANNUAL REPORT 2021

In 2020, we started implementing our IT strategy for 2020–2022. As part of this, we improved the manage ment of IT development requests, IT architecture, inter nal controls and risks, and improved the controlling of IT costs and capital investments. We continued the practice of conducting IT self-audits, the findings of which direct us to those areas requiring upgrades and improvements.

Despite the rise in the operational risk related to IT staff ing perceived in the broader business environment, the Sava Insurance Group has a low staff turnover rate and fully manages replacing departures with new employees. In 2021, we completed a large set of IT training for our staff and started to focus on more specialised knowledge related to the introduction of new technologies and ap proaches to IT support for the delivery of strategic goals.

The development of business applications was combined with the maintenance of existing solutions in accordance with the business and regulatory requirements of the companies. We further upgraded IT processes for the managing of changes in software and IT project devel opment. We completed the implementation of the new core IT solution for asset management in all target com panies of the Sava Insurance Group, and we continued working on the project to replace the core IT solution for insurance business and started a similar project for rein surance business. In several companies, we are expanding our customer-relations solutions to include more chan nels (e.g. call centres and customer portals).

Regarding business intelligence, we provided ongoing support to operations, upgraded existing solutions, and continued to develop data and reporting solutions for the IFRS 17 project. After careful consideration of the dif ferent technology options, we launched a new specialised technology platform to support data analytics over the next 5-year period and carried out a technical consolida tion of existing data warehouses.

The infrastructure staff provided support to business op erations. System software and hardware infrastructure was upgraded in accordance with the business plan, the amortisation cycle, requirements to support day-to-day business, and planned IT development projects. We up graded our network software, increased the security of endpoint workstations and equipment, and improved monitoring of critical IT services.

To strengthen information security, we increased the number of indicators, sensors and controls in the 24/7 security operations centre. A major upgrade includes the purchase of an endpoint threat detection and response system to enhance endpoint security, which we built into the basic process and gradually began to use.

Regarding business continuity, we carried out the planned preventive and control tasks. As part of manag ing the Covid-19 situation, operational tasks were carried out routinely, with IT security upgrades taking into ac count the increased homeworking.

14.1 Sustainable development strategy of the Sava Insurance Group

91 Merila ESG: ESG (angl. Environmental, Social, Governance) je družbeno odgovorno ravnanje, za katero na splošno velja, da mora izpolnjevati tri merila: okoljevarstveno in družbeno merilo ter merilo odgovornega upravljanja podjetja.

In its strategic plan for the period 2017–2019, the Sava Insurance Group already incorporated sustainable development as one of its key pursuits and made a commitment to make it an integral part of its business operations. As sustainable development remains one of our priorities in the next strategic period 2020–2022, we have prepared and adopted a sustainable development strategy in cooperation with all Group subsidiaries.

14.1.1 Sustainable development strategy 2020–2022

The Sava Insurance Group's objectives and its sustainable development strategy are rooted in its values, mission and vision. The Group's goal for the strategy period is for its stakeholders to recognise it as:

  • a socially responsible insurance and reinsurance company, and a socially responsible and trustworthy partner,
  • a socially responsible asset and equity manager,
  • a socially responsible and attractive employer,
  • an organisation that is socially responsible to the wider community.

Highlights of the strategy period:

Focus on the United Nations sustainable development goals of "good health and well-being" and embedding them into our insurance products and services, to ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for

Interests and expectations of the relevant interested parties and stakeholders, as communicated to us through ongoing dialogue with individual stakeholder groups. The sustainable development strategy is thus based on building quality long-term relationships with all stakeholders, with customers and their satisfaction

  • all at all ages;
  • at the centre;
  • the Group;
  • development goals;
  • social and environmental responsibility.

ESG criteria91, which we are gradually and systematically integrating into the decision-making processes in

Adoption of key performance indicators and systematic measurement of progress towards sustainable

Corporate actions and further promotion of corporate

All business lines and subsidiaries appointed their sustainable development owners responsible for the implementation of the sustainable development strategy and coordination of the tasks agreed, and appointed working groups and project teams to monitor, align and implement legislation. We also carried out the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) implementation project.

14.1.2 Strategy implementation in 2021

The Group's business in 2021 was still very much affected by the Covid-19 epidemic, and this had an impact also on the implementation of our sustainable development strategy, which focused primarily on the health and safety of all employees, ongoing communication with our customers, and unhindered dialogue with all other stakeholders of the Group.

In implementing the sustainability strategy and integrating the ESG criteria into our business processes, we paid special attention to:

  • customer relationship management, which is at the centre of our processes, and business digitisation, which is the foundation on which we build a quality relationship with all stakeholders (responsibility to consumers);
  • product development and underwriting;
  • investment process;

In 2021, the Sava Insurance Group could therefore highlight in particular the following:

  1. In line with Regulation (EU) 2019/2088 (SFDR – Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation) we integrated the ESG criteria into the investment process and the development of financial products; we published the relevant disclosures on our websites and took regulatory requirements into account also in pre-contractual disclosures for financial products.

    1. On 30 June 2021, we posted the "Sustainability investment policy of the Sava Insurance Group" on our website.
    1. We joined the UN Global Compact and UN PRI.
    1. We performed a substantive assessment of the portfolio in terms of the ESG criteria and developed the guidelines for responsible insurance and reinsurance underwriting, which were adopted in January 2022.
    1. We launched the "Never Alone" project aimed at developing the employer brand.
    1. Stakeholder involvement, identification of interests and expectations of all interested parties, and an ongoing dialogue in new circumstances: since December 2021, we have been communicating the increasingly stronger collaboration among Group companies with a new campaign under the slogan "Among good people", emphasising the customer-centric orientation as our overarching value and key advantage.
    1. We carried out the "Heart for the World" project, a corporate volunteer campaign, the aim of which is to evolve from a series of one-off events into a yearround activity.

The activities performed are described in more detail below.

14.1.2.1 Customer in the centre and digitisation of operations92

In 2021, the Covid-19 situation continued and further accelerated the introduction of new communication channels that support remote operations and the uninterrupted provision of services to our customers. The introduction of video identification, remote signing and remote property damage surveying enabled customers to take out insurance policies, report claims, and communicate seamlessly with companies.

Operational performance indicators are integrated in the processes, which allows us to optimise operations, accelerate the use of digital channels, and deliver high quality services.

In 2021, we continued to introduce new solutions to facilitate our services for our customers:

• The introduction of a remote signing provided customers with uninterrupted insurance cover during the Covid-19 pandemic when our sales points were closed, and made insurance services available during the lockdown period. This solution implements the client in the centre guideline, making the services we offer to our customers fast, accessible and easy. All GDPR requirements were included in the process.

• Introduction of video-based customer identification in support of processes that require appropriate and reliable identification in accordance with the law, especially in life insurance and in investment services

  • transactions.

• Introduction of remote property damage surveying ensures better accessibility, speed, and ease of reporting claims in situations of restricted mobility. Customers document claims digitally, which makes it faster to process – it reduces the time that appraisers need to reach the place of the loss; the introduction of a multi-channel platform allows us to consolidate all interactions with the customer. The aim is to provide an integrated approach to customer service and ensure central information on customers' activities with the Company. The solution includes a new chat room that also serves to record interactions with the customer.

14.1.2.2 Product development and underwriting93

Environmental (increasing burden on the environment related to population growth, pollution from waste and other ecological problems), climate (greenhouse gas emissions) and social changes (introduction of new technologies, changes in legislation, demographic trends, population migration) are shaping a new landscape for the development of new products and underwriting. This gives rise to:

  • new opportunities in the development of innovative products and services and
  • new, unknown risks and consequently the creation of new underwriting criteria (such as climate change and weather-related natural disasters).

With this in mind and in accordance with the strategy, we focus on:

Development of non-life and accident insurance products: with the development of new products a system is gradually being established in which sustainable development is also assessed according to predetermined criteria. This is formally supported by corresponding questionnaires and rules. The questionnaire aims to determine whether our offer has a direct or indirect impact on our customers' attitude towards the environment or more responsible social behaviour.

Development of financial products: the adoption of the taxonomy (Regulation (EU) 2020/852) and SFDR (Regulation (EU) 2019/2088) regulations aligned the criteria for the entire European market and clearly defined the sustainability of financial products so as to prevent greenwashing. The competent departments within the insurance group keep track of regulations and promptly implement them (relevant disclosures, adoption of relevant policies, and similar).

  • Insurance and reinsurance underwriting: a system of the ESG criteria is being established in underwriting (insurance and reinsurance, especially facultative) by introducing an exclusion and conditional exclusion list. Related activities performed in 2021:
  • In the framework of reinsurance underwriting guidelines, we prepared baseline rules for the reinsurance business, especially facultative, for the identification and recording of exposed ESG transactions in non-Group reinsurance activities.
  • In treaty reinsurance we focused on seeking sustainability opportunities and on market developments concerning sustainable reinsurance programmes being developed.
  • We prepared the "Sava Insurance Group guidelines for responsible underwriting of environmental, social, and governance risks in non-life insurance", and continue to upgrade the measurement methodology and establishment of key performance indicators (KPIs).

Given the increasingly complex decision-making process in respect of ESG criteria, an ESG data collection system is being set up along with relevant information support for monitoring the effects of introducing ESG criteria and reporting in accordance with regulations.

14.1.2.3 Investment process94

The 2020–2022 strategic period is marked by the implementation of Regulation (EU) 2019/2088 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 November 2019 laying down harmonised rules for financial market participants and financial advisers on transparency with regard to the integration of sustainability risks and the consideration of adverse impacts of sustainability in their processes and the provision of sustainability-related information with respect to financial products. The regulation imposes additional disclosure requirements on financial market participants regarding investment policy or the integration of the sustainability aspect into their investment decisions, as well as disclosure regarding the consideration of sustainability in individual financial products.

The management board of Sava Re adopted the "Sustainability investment policy of the Sava Insurance Group", which was published on its website on 30 June 2021. Its purpose is to regulate the Group's approach by taking into account the environmental, social, and governance factors, and to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations governing investments. The policy defines how environmental, social, and governance aspects are integrated into investment decision-making, excluding derivatives and existing illiquid investments. Integration of these aspects into the Group's investment decision-making is based on the monitoring and assessment of the main adverse impacts, monitoring, and evaluation of the intensity of greenhouse gas emissions, and exclusions.

The process is presented in more detail in section 14.3.2 "ESG guidelines".

14.1.2.4 Sourcing process95

Group companies coordinated purchasing policy and made it more uniform, which involves strategic guidelines and principles governing a transparent procurement process. The inclusion of an anti-corruption clause in all purchase contracts has been agreed. Sustainability goals of the purchasing process are:

• the establishment and maintenance of partnerships with suppliers (which are our existing or potential policyholders); therefore, we prefer to locate suppliers

  • from the local environment,
  • by local suppliers.

• the definition of additional criteria for the selection of suppliers that take into account environmental and social aspects, and the definition of criteria to be met

The purchasing process is described in more detail in section 14.3.4 "Relations with suppliers and the purchasing policy".

14.1.2.5 Cyber security96 The Covid-19 pandemic continued to shape the way we organise work in 2021 as well (hybrid work arrangements, combining working from home with office work). To meet these requirements, we made additional adjustments to certain technical measures aimed at enhancing the security of information systems, which have become more exposed with new work arrangements. We achieved this by introducing additional methods for the detection of anomalies and suspicious patterns in the SIEM system, and by tightening certain policies and technical controls in this system. We continuously upgrade the technical and organisational capacities for the protection of final stations, which are exposed in the remote work regime.

In 2021 we organised additional programmes to train our employees in how to respond in case of a cyberattack, and we continued to raise awareness of the threats associated with social engineering techniques.

At the operational level, the capacities were upgraded with a 24/7 Security Operations Centre (SOC), which continuously monitors the Company's cyberspace, including the activities of employees working from home. In addition, several measures were taken to strengthen the existing IT infrastructure; additional control points were integrated, and additional security systems were installed.

Security capacity upgrades for the 2022 and 2023 were also outlined.

In parallel with homeworking, the Microsoft Teams tool for team collaboration also became increasingly used by our employees and external providers, which reduced the need for physical meetings. As many of our projects involve foreign partners, this measure substantially reduced our environmental impact from transport.

The needs and interests of stakeholders are meet and monitored via a web of mutual relations at strategic and operational levels. Trust and mutual understanding with individual groups is thus strengthened on the basis of fair and balanced communications and inclusion.

The Sava Insurance Group thus strives to establish various forms of cooperation with stakeholders, and the year of the Covid-19 pandemic also brought new challenges in this area, since traditional forms of communication were no longer workable in these changed circumstances. New technologies and digitisation of operations thus took advantage of this renewed momentum, and accelerated new solutions, remote communication, and implementation of all processes.

In those circumstances, it was particularly important to identify the needs of stakeholders for information or content. To this end, we conducted, already in 2020, an online survey in all countries where we are present but Montenegro, where the epidemiological situation was extremely difficult and it was feared that the survey could have a disturbing or negative impact on stakeholders.

The survey demonstrated that our stakeholders recognise the following business aspects or topics as the most important:

  • Sales network
  • Customer satisfaction
  • Compliance
  • Products that are transparent and easy to understand
  • Motivated, innovative and happy employees

Below, we list those stakeholders believed to have a significant impact on each legal entity in the Group and vice versa; what is more, these stakeholders also actively contribute in adding value to our business operations.

Economic performance defined by the strategic goals in all areas and reported more extensively in the financial part of the report is the key performance indicator for the operations of the Sava Insurance Group. This is achieved through timely risk identification and management. We believe that both financial and non-financial risks have an impact on the economic performance of the company.

As evident from the table, the distributed economic value of the Sava Insurance Group in 2021 totalled EUR 679.9 million. It consists of net claims incurred and other insurance expenses, expenses for financial assets, other expenses, operating expenses, dividend payouts, tax expenses, community investments in the form of prevention, donations and sponsorships, payments, benefits and bonuses to employees.

We also contribute to general well-being by supporting culture and education programmes, professional associations, underprivileged groups and charities.

By investing in prevention programmes, we reduce risks that have a significant economic and social impact on the insurance industry.

Despite the uncertainty that came with the global crisis triggered by the pandemic, the Group increased its total environmental expenditure by 3%.

14.3.2 ESG investment guidelines100

Two significant events are worth pointing out in 2021, namely the entering into force of the SFDR Regulation and the adoption of said "Sustainability investment policy of the Sava Insurance Group", with which we undertook to integrate the principles of the UN Global Compact and UN PRI in investment decision-making processes.

The Sava Insurance Group makes investments in compliance with ESG principles (ESG – environmental, social, governance) through negative screening. When choosing investments, we favour those that comply with the ESG principles, the principles of sustainable developments, responsible investment and similar. Return on investment is an important but not sole criterion, as risk analysis also takes account of the sustainability criterion, which is important in investment decisions, in line with the mentioned sustainability investment policy. In building our investment portfolio we avoid investing in securities that might have harmful effects of any kind either on people or the environment, or that in any way deviate from the ESG principles. Part of our funds are invested in debt securities issued by international organisations such as the EBRD, the World Bank and the European Investment Bank, as we believe that these organisations invest in environment-friendly projects and promote development in accordance with their environmental and social policies. We also invest in securities issued to fund green, environmental projects (so-called green bonds) and sustainable bonds (sustainability bonds), which are intended to finance green and social sustainability objectives of issuers and are issued primarily by governments and local authorities.

100 GRI 103-01, 103-02, 103-03, 203-01.

From year-end 2020, investments in green and sustainability bonds of EUR 82.4 million increased by EUR 39.2 million to EUR 121.6 million at year-end 2021. In the years 2020 and 2021, the outbreak of the pandemic significantly accelerated the issuance of sustainability bonds and their supply, which had a favourable effect on the range of ESG bonds available for investment. Common to all the investments shown in the table below is the fact that the funds collected are used to finance projects and investments meeting certain criteria, such as the ESG Standards.

We do not make investments in nuclear energy, net fishing, production or trade in illegal products or services, or in products and services that may (potentially) be harmful to people or the environment. In addition, we no longer invest in military industries, the tobacco industry, adult entertainment or gambling.

The companies that became part of the Sava Insurance Group in 2020 have adopted the guidelines set out above and will take them into account in investment management in the future; however, they are subject to a transitional period, during which they must adjust their processes and investment portfolios.

Compliance with sustainability criteria is particularly emphasised in infrastructure investments, real estate funds, and other alternative investments, since non-compliance with the ESG guidelines constitutes (as a rule) an exclusion criterion when deciding on investments in funds and direct projects. Currently, all alternative investments in the portfolios of the Sava Insurance Group in the form of alternative funds comply with at least one industry sustainability standard (UN PRI – United Nations Principles of Responsible Investments, GRESB – Global ESG Benchmark for Real Estate, TCFD – Task Force on Climate-related Fi-100GRI 103-01, 103-02, 103-03, financing of direct projects.

nancial Disclosures) and are report on in accordance with these standards. Rarely, where this is not the case, we have agreed on exclusion of investments that do not meet our internal ESG criteria. In many cases, these are funds with a favourable impact on the environment and society, as they are focused specifically, e.g. on renewable energy projects, the construction of infrastructure that supports the transition to renewable energy sources, and investments in energy savings. As regards energy savings and the socalled energy entrepreneurship, we have been active in the domestic environment for several years now through the

Real estate investments in our portfolios integrate ambitious environmental, social, and governance commitments. The most important goals are a drastic reduction in the consumption of energy and water, a decrease of greenhouse gas emissions, and efficient processing of waste. The managers of these funds have various certificates, including LEED, BREEAM, WELL and HQE. As part of the social goals, the funds also strive to strengthen local communities and cities, and the construction of residential real estate takes account of the fact that these buildings are surrounded by green areas for social gatherings and promote healthy living, that real estate users have guaranteed access to social and educational institutions and actively participate in sustainable mobility projects.

Over the next years, we plan to continue investing in renewable energy sources, energy efficiency projects and sustainable real property. Moreover, we intend to include ESG bonds in the portfolio as much as possible. Under the new legislation entering into force in 2021, we will also comply with the uniform rules regarding the transparency of the integration of sustainability risks into processes and take due account of impacts harmful to sustainability when making investment decisions.

14.3.3 Risks and opportunities arising from climate change101

Climate change is a serious threat to society, the economy and in particular to the business of insurance and reinsurance companies. Global temperatures are now about 1° C above pre-industrial levels, and without appropriate mitigation strategies put in place, global warming could reach 3° C or more by the end of this century.

The Group started monitoring climate risk, including physical and transition risks. Physical risks are risks102 resulting from the physical effects of climate change and include acute physical risks (weather events with negative impact on the company's business) and chronic physical risks, which arise from long-term effects of climate change. Transition risks are those that arise from the transition to a low-carbon and climate-resilient economy. Such risks involve risk of new rules, requirements, and policies (e.g. as a result of new legislation), legal risks (litigation due to inadequate adjustment of operations and failure in preventing environmental impact), technology risk (upon transition to the new technology that facilitates more climate-neutral business operations), market risks (e.g. changes in consumers' preferences for more sustainable products) and reputation risk (the company's reputation may be impaired due to bad practices and environmental impact). Qualitative assessments of climate risk were first integrated in 2021 in the Group's own risk and solvency assessment (hereinafter: ORSA) and were accompanied by a qualitative analysis of climate change scenarios.

Given its activity, physical risks are extremely important for the Sava Insurance Group, and the harmful effects of global warming on natural and human systems are already visible today. Without further international climate action the average global temperature will continue to rise, and with it also the unpredictability of damage associated with the risk of natural disasters. This will result in higher underwriting risk and the need to change business strategies.

In 2021 the international reinsurance markets saw a spate of world-wide natural disaster events. The most important ones were floods in western Europe (Bernd), storms in Austria (Volker), storms in the Czech Republic, hurricane Ida in the USA, floods in China (Henan), and wildfires in Greece and Turkey. Sava Re's share in three of these events exceeded EUR 1 million, and the Bernd flood, at EUR 20.7 million represents the largest gross loss in the history of Sava Re operations.

Zavarovalnica Sava recorded 2 natural catastrophe loss events in excess of EUR 1 million. The number of such loss events was higher than in 2020.

Other subsidiaries did not record major differences in loss events due to extreme weather in 2021.

Group companies are exposed to transition risk associated with the shift to more sustainable business operations, and the Group manages this risk through regular monitoring of sustainability-related legislative changes and promptly adapts its business also by offering more sustainable products and by actively learning about its customers' new needs.

The Group made a commitment to adopt a greenhouse gas emissions reduction policy in 2022.

103 GRI 102-9, 103-1, 103-2, 103-3, 204-1, 308-1.

Investing in sustainable development and prevention (renewable resources, awareness raising) are the factors that have an important impact on the scope and scale of losses due to natural disasters, whereas our main efforts remain focused on limiting exposure to the industries and sectors that play a big part in adding to environmental burdens.

14.3.4 Relations with suppliers and the purchasing policy103

The Sava Insurance Group companies coordinated and unified the purchasing policy, which provides strategic guidelines and principles governing a transparent procurement process. Internal acts prescribe the inclusion of an anti-corruption clause in all purchase contracts.104 When ordering, taking over and paying for goods, the principle of four eyes is applied, which ensures a high degree of individual control over the business purchasing process. Sava Re assesses the risk inherent in purchasing on a quarterly basis.105 The procurement procedure rules have an appended questionnaire on the sustainability of the company106, which is intended for suppliers whose bids are collected through tenders (the value of goods exceeds EUR 50,000). A completed questionnaire is an important factor in the selection of a supplier and the first step towards promoting sustainability in partnerships as part of the procurement process. The general purchasing conditions, which as a rule constitute an integral part of every purchase, also emphasise the concern for the sustainable development of the Company. The internal acts governing the business purchasing process in all Group companies are updated with mechanisms monitoring suppliers' sustainability.

Group companies' suppliers are mainly providers of consulting services, IT maintenance, office supplies, small tools, computer hardware and software, and company cars.

All Group companies are required to partner with local suppliers by the very nature of the business and the need to establish long-term partnerships in their own communities. The local market of any Group member is the entire territory of the country in which it is registered107.

Although some of the purchases are made outside their home country, they are limited (mainly to the goods and services that cannot be sourced in their home country or are offered at non-competitive prices), and in case of producers or service providers from other countries business relationships are established through local agents or representatives. Frequently, looking for suppliers in foreign markets is not reasonable, because companies can make purchases under better conditions and with less risk with domestic suppliers. Domestic supply in Zavarovalnica Sava, as the largest subsidiary in the Group, makes up 97% of its purchases.

One of the objectives of the Group's purchasing policy is the collaboration of companies in joint purchasing. This most often involves companies registered in the same country. All or a major part of Group companies take part in the purchasing or development of information solutions. The objective of joint purchasing is: optimisation of the purchasing process, cost savings, and reduced risk in purchased goods. Collaborative purchasing also facilitates the sharing of expertise, experience, and good practice between Group companies.

CONTENTS

The Sava Insurance Group ensures competitiveness and transparency of the selection procedure in relationships with its suppliers by sending requests for proposals to several providers and increasing competencies and responsibilities for decision making regarding the selection of suppliers, depending on the level of the estimated value of the goods. Special attention is paid to the development of quality criteria, mutual cooperation, creation of synergy, and price competitiveness (rebate scales and similar), all of which are considered an appropriate basis on which to assess suppliers.

In terms of procurement, the Company/Group also takes into account a number of other internal acts defining procedures and other instructions. These include: the Group fleet management policy; the rules on procurement, use and maintenance of company vehicles; the rules on the use of information technology assets. In 2021, the Rules on the Purchasing Process of Sava Re d.d. were revised, and the Sava Insurance Group Purchasing Policy was revised in early 2022.

Sava Re and all Group companies settle their procurement-related liabilities within agreed deadlines.

14.3.5 Financial assistance received from government108

The Group has examined Covid-19-related impacts on government assistance received. State aid totalling EUR 93,213 went to four companies and included exemption from contribution payments, quarantine and isolation subsidies, crisis allowance, and sick leave due to force majeure (five companies in 2020 received a total of EUR 234,468 in state aid).

14.3.5.1 Definition of other government incentives

In 2021, Sava Re was again granted a partial 30% exemption from the payment of employer's contributions for employees who reached the age of 60, and the exemption from the payment of the employer's share of social security contributions on employment contracts concluded for an indefinite period. These refunds totalled EUR 12,600 (2020: EUR 11,126).

Sava Re also set up a collective voluntary supplementary pension insurance scheme funded by the employer and has a contract in place on the accession to the pension company's pension scheme, registered in the pension scheme register at the Financial Administration of the Republic of Slovenia. Based on these contracts, the Company pays a voluntary supplementary pension insurance premium for those employees who have joined the pension scheme and is thus entitled to a reduced income tax base for the amount of the voluntary supplementary pension insurance premium paid in the tax year for its employees to the pension scheme provider. The total value of this tax relief amounted to EUR 193,899 (2020: EUR 182,754).

Subsidiaries exercise incentives or reliefs in accordance with local legislation (employment of the disabled, inclusion of employees in the pension schemes, etc.).

14.3.6 Tax109

In line with its sustainable development strategy the Sava Insurance Group invests its efforts in being recognised by its stakeholders as a socially responsible and community-minded organisation. This extends to its tax philosophy. Taxes provide for public and health services, and education. They provide for security as well as construction and maintenance of public infrastructure. Taxes are a tool for progress and development, and forge relations between the wider community and enterprises.

As a socially responsible organisation the Sava Insurance Group:

  • operates fairly and transparently,
  • calculates and pays all incurred tax liabilities in accordance with international tax standards and national legislation in the countries in which it operates,
  • regulates transfer pricing in accordance with international standards (including OECD guidelines) and national legislations,
  • cooperates with tax authorities in an open and transparent manner.

Taxation will be integrated into the sustainable development strategy in 2022, when we will also prepare the Group's policy for this area.

14.4.1 Responsibility to employees110

The Sava Insurance Group is aware of its responsibility to employees and has made it a fundamental goal of its sustainable development strategy for the Group to be recognised by its stakeholders as a socially responsible and attractive employer in the region.

In 2021, we launched a Group-level employee-centred project, the employer brand called "Never Alone". It shows our commitment to being both an employee- and customer-centric organisation. We wish to gain deeper insight into the needs of our employees, which will guide us in preparing activities for increasing staff satisfaction and commitment. The project stresses the importance of continuous internal communication, positive workplace climate, loyalty, and team spirit among employees. Special attention is also paid to managing and building good relationships between employees and their managers. To this end, we developed a single visual identity that was introduced in all Group companies.

The Group attaches significant importance to the health of employees and an honest and respectful attitude towards them. We invest many efforts in creating a positive and creative atmosphere in our daily routine, which stems from our strategic policies.

In 2021, we paid special attention to the health and safety of our employees. We work and communicate with them using a four-stage plan, which is activated in the

event of a state of emergency declared at the government or company level. We keep them informed of the measures currently in force in the company and announce the current stage of the plan on a weekly basis. We adhere to this plan in all Group companies, thus taking care to ensure the Company's smooth operation and, most importantly, employees are informed in advance of these rules, measures, and instructions in force at the currently announced stage and can take appropriate action in any situation.

With the epidemic still ongoing and prompting ever new measures imposed by the competent institutions, we pay special attention to ongoing communication with our employees via email, intranet and regular virtual meetings of organisational units. Our employee satisfaction survey showed that our employees want to be kept up do date; they appreciate ongoing communication and useful information.

The provision of information was supported with a new internal website Covid-19 Info Point, where all the information that employees need – daily notices, instructions for handling various situations, instructions for safe work from home, frequently asked questions and answers, prescribed forms, telephone numbers of leaders, lists of participants in the crisis headquarters and similar – was collected in one place. The Covid-19 Info Point also serves as an archive of internal communication and public notifications published in advertising campaigns, on the blog, in social media, on our websites, etc.

We are aware that we can achieve our goals only with competent, qualified, experienced and motivated employees. In the Sava Insurance Group, we promote development and transfer of knowledge and skills. We create synergies by sharing knowledge and good practices between professional services and companies in the Group. In order to achieve this, we organise expert meetings for representatives of all companies at events or professional conferences, which serve as an opportunity to exchange knowledge and skills and allows us to inform each other about results and plans. In 2021, we held organised virtual meetings with which we additionally connected and improved mutual relations.

In the Sava Insurance Group, we build and promote the culture of innovation. Companies have established formal and informal systems for collecting innovative proposals.

Zavarovalnica Sava introduced a new method of collecting innovative proposals or initiatives for improvement called "ImproveSava", and organised innovation days, which also welcomed employees from other Group companies. All employees can submit, by completing an online form, proposals for improvements or innovations, express their approval or report an inconsistency, deficiency or error. Proposals or reports may relate to business processes, insurance products, compliance of business operations, risks and internal controls, as well as employees and internal relationships.

14.4.1.1 Employee benefits111

The Sava Insurance Group offers numerous benefits to our employees. All companies offer additional benefits to their employees, within their means, including preventive healthcare, teambuilding, and a motivating and positive working atmosphere, good work-life balance, and general wellbeing in the workplace. We provide a flexible working environment and working hours, as well as financial assistance in the event of personal distress of our employees.

In 2021, Sava Re organised numerous virtual meetings, such as virtual training courses, virtual coffee, virtual relaxation using the progressive muscle relaxation technique and Burst walking workouts, which allowed each employee to walk alone while enjoying the company of their co-workers via the MS Teams web app. In the summer, we organised a teambuilding event and a live picnic, taking into account all necessary safety and health-related measures. We had a new year's party as well, and although the circumstances pushed it online we enjoyed the delicacies delivered to our home addresses. We organised a show for our employees' children in December and sent them presents by post.

Every year Sava Re organises at least four events dedicated to health and recreation, with sports activities or workshops and lectures. In 2021, we organised a stress management and relaxation workshop, a cooking class with chef Štefelin, breathing exercises with Manca Izmajlova, and two health days to be spent as they wished. Employees had the option to go hiking, running, cycling or skiing.

111 GRI 103-01, 103-02, 201-03.

Other Group companies offer similar activities as well as other benefits, within their means.

All Slovenia-based companies pay voluntary supplementary pension insurance premiums for their employees: The North Macedonian insurers Sava Osiguruvanje and Sava Penzisko Društvo also pay into the voluntary pension scheme on behalf of their employees.

Companies offer additional discounts to their employees for health and other insurance as well as a collective accident insurance scheme.

The Sava Insurance Group is aware how important the work-life balance is for its employees. To this end we introduced a procedure that allows them to work from home in ordinary and extraordinary circumstances.

Zavarovalnica Sava is the recipient of the full Family-Friendly Company certificate and offers its employees paid leave for easing children into kindergarten, or taking them to school on the first school day (first to third grade of elementary school) and similar benefits. Sava Re does not hold the certificate, but it provides paid leave to employees introducing their children to kindergarten or accompanying them to school on the first day of school.

14.4.2 Responsibility to consumers112

In 2020 we started and in 2021 continued to set up a catalogue of key performance indicators at the Group level, which will enable continuous monitoring of customer satisfaction.

Due to the pandemic in 2021, a great deal of effort was invested in accelerating achievement of the already set strategic goals:

  • ensuring the continuity of services for our customers using new technological solutions (see section 14.1.2.1 "Customer in the Centre of all Processes and the digitisation of operations"),
  • while ensuring maximum security (see section 14.1.2.3 "Cyber security").

To manage the process of providing services all companies have in place rules, protocols or instructions that have a pivotal role in ensuring quality and in turn customer satisfaction: for underwriting, claims settlement, instigation of recourse proceedings and complaints resolution, describing the procedures for providing information about insurance products or services where the local legislation so requires.

112 GRI 103-01, 103-02, 103-03.

Companies offer their customers excellent products and services, and this is reflected in the awards and commendations, among which we would like to point out: • Sava Infond: For the fourth consecutive year, Sava Infond received the title "best fund management company for three-year performance" (Moje Finance magazine). Aleš Grbić received the title of best asset manager in Slovenia for the second year in a row. Five Infond funds received the best fund award in their category and seven funds received five stars for excellence in management.

  • Sava Penzisko Društvo (MKD): At the IPE Awards ceremony 2021 the company was shortlisted in the "best pension fund in Central and Eastern Europe" category, which means that it was recognised as one of the four best pension funds in the wider CEE region.
  • Sava Pokojninska Družba: In 2021, Sava Pokojninska Družba received all five stars for five-year performance (2016–2020) in Moje Finance magazine's competition for the best performing guaranteed supplementary pension fund.

14.4.2.1 The Sava Insurance Group with a new slogan "Among good people"

Customer satisfaction and customer relations are at the centre of every business decision in the Sava Insurance Group. Our activities are therefore directed at offering the best user experience, and these efforts are also the main focus of our strategic plan. Group growth and an expanded range of insurance products and services required new positioning. Today, the companies under the wing of the Sava Insurance Group offer comprehensive insurance coverage (non-life, life and supplementary health insurance, and other insurance services), supplementary pension insurance, asset management, and assistance services. The promise we made to our clients in 2016 under the slogan "Never Alone" thus grew another dimension.

In December 2021, the Sava Insurance Group made its first public appearance with its new comprehensive campaign. With a number of companies under our wing and under the "Among good people", slogan we communicate their increasingly stronger collaboration, and in the first place our customer-centric orientation as our overarching value and key advantage:

• The Group that works from the people and for the

• This interaction with people, from the people and for the people, is the key message of the campaign with which we position ourselves in the insurance industry. Our story emphasises what distinguishes the Sava Insurance Group from its counterparts – its closeness to the people. This is expressed already in the Group's

  • people.
  • umbrella slogan "Among good people".
  • Good people make good stories.

• The slogan also communicates that with cooperation of employees from each of its companies the Sava Insurance Group tackles every challenge, every test and every situation together, while forging truly authentic relationships. Relationships that are based on what we all need – the awareness that we are heard, understood, and treated not only as clients, but as people

with their own stories. In television, radio, printed and digital media we emphasise that when people come together, listen to each other and help each other we can overcome any challenge or obstacle that stands in the way of realising our full potential. This touching story of small good deeds by good people was underlined with a unique creative touch – watercolours inspired by the course of the river that lent its name to the Group, the Sava.

  • The story of the Sava Insurance Group is the story of us all.
  • While successfully overcoming the challenges thrown at us and connecting its companies, the Sava Insurance Group also successfully pursued its mission. With its commitment and continuous progress it ensures security while building a modern, digital, customer-centric, community-minded and sustainability-oriented insurance group, demonstrating that any, even the most daring story, can come true in the company of good people.

14.4.3 Client communication and information113

Important milestones in communicating information to clients consisted in Regulation (EU) 2019/2088 on sustainability-related disclosures in the financial services sector (SFDR) and Regulation (EU) 2020/852 known as Taxonomy Regulation, which regulates the sustainability assessment of investments using a science-based approach to preventing greenwashing. To ensure the transition to a carbon-neutral economy by 2050 and the implementation of sustainable investment measures, we need to earn the trust of companies and investors by defining straightforward tools and guidelines adopted based on science-based evidence and experience in the market.

The SFDR regulation stipulates that financial market participants and financial advisers who have financial products in their offer must publish written policies on the integration of sustainability risks and ensure the transparency of such integration. In accordance with the regulation, the providers of financial services in the Sava Insurance Group (Zavarovalnica Sava and Vita, Življenjska Zavarovalnica, Sava Pokojninska Družba) provide information on the adverse impacts of their investment decisions on sustainability in pre-contractual disclosures for their financial products. In 2021, the Group thus adopted the already mentioned "Sustainability investment policy of the Sava Insurance Group".

113 GRI 103-01, 103-02, 417-01.

In line with adopted regulations the sustainability factors of an insurance product should be presented in a transparent manner to enable insurance distributors to provide the relevant information to their customers or potential customers. The impact assessment underpinning subsequent legislative initiatives demonstrated the need to clarify that sustainability factors should be taken into account by insurance intermediaries and insurance undertakings distributing insurance-based investment products as part of their duties toward their customers and potential customers.

The product approval process must identify for each insurance product the target market and the group of compatible customers. The target market must be identified at a sufficiently granular level, taking into account the characteristics, risk profile, complexity and nature of the insurance product, as well as its sustainability factors.

The Directive (EU) 2016/97 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 January 2016 on the distribution of insurance products (hereinafter: the IDD directive), which was implemented with the amendment to the ZZavar-1a in early 2019, was thus supplemented with the Commission Delegated Regulation 2021/1257 of 21 April 2021, which regulates the integration of sustainability factors, risks, and preferences into the product oversight and governance requirements for insurance undertakings and insurance distributors and into the rules on the conduct of business and investment advice for insurance-based investment products.

In addition to the already established communication channels, Sava Insurance Group members are successfully adapting to paperless operations through the introduction of renewed self-service points (customer portals), and apart from the collection of data on the distribution of insurance products also the processes of collecting statements and consents based on electronic business are being introduced to enable the customer to easily and transparently monitor and independently archive the received business communication with the companies.

All subsidiaries post information on their products on their websites.

When advertising, customers are properly informed of the products. Product information is always available on official websites together with statutory notifications and related news. In the event of mass losses, Zavarovalnica Sava publishes a notice and provides instructions for policyholders, setting forth the right course of action.

The Covid-19 pandemic also notably affected customer information activities, as it required certain adjustments to the new circumstances: minimum physical contact and contents adapted to the health protection requirements.

Dialogue with customers and relevant activities are described in more detail in section 14.2 "Stakeholder engagement".

14.4.4 Compliance114

The Sava Insurance Group is obligated to comply with extensive legal and regulatory requirements as well as voluntary obligations. More than 2,500 employees working in Group companies are obliged to abide by these rules. The compliance function ensures that this commitment is implemented in practice by creating rules, raising awareness, monitoring compliance with the rules, and by upholding integrity.

14.4.4.1 Organisation of the compliance function

Like the Sava Insurance Group, the compliance function is also decentralised. Each company has its key compliance function holder, and these are overseen by the Sava Insurance Group compliance function holder. Roles, responsibilities and minimum standards are defined by the "Sava Insurance Group compliance policy". Function holders in each company are responsible for: monitoring the legal situation, providing recommendations for the adoption of relevant measures, identifying and assessing compliance risk, adopting measures to prevent violation of the rules, providing advice to employees, and monitoring existing processes and potential compliance incidents. The Group level function holder provides recommendations to function holders in subsidiaries, and assists and monitors them in fulfilling their obligations.

114 GRI 419.

14.4.4.2 Exchange of information within the Sava Insurance Group

To ensure compliance across the Group and continuous improvement of the compliance system, all compliance function holders meet once a year.

External experts are also invited as speakers, and together they discuss topics such as: comprehensive overview of the compliance management system; international standards and good practices with an emphasis on the role of compliance function holders and providers; characteristic compliance risk areas; how to perform compliance reviews and meet other duties of the compliance function holder; EU whistleblower protection directive and its effects on the Company's business, other relevant EU and local regulations, and similar.

In the reporting period, a system was set up for reporting on legislative changes in countries where Sava Insurance Group companies have their registered office. Each month, compliance function holders in all subsidiaries outside Slovenia report to the Group-level function holder on new or amended regulations that affect the business operations of the relevant company. The List contains: the name of the regulation; a brief description of essential changes that affect the company's business; a list of processes affected by these changes; the time limit for the implementation of changes; the persons responsible for the implementation and estimated costs, where relevant.

The established reporting system at the Group level facilitates the respective business function holders in managing risks associated with changes to business processes that were introduced due to amended legal regulations.

In 2022, the compliance function will continue to provide guidance and oversight in the implementation of EU sustainability regulations, including: regulation on sustainability-related disclosures in the financial services sector (SFRD); directive on non-financial reporting (NFRD) and the EU taxonomy regulation.

14.4.4.3 Outsourced transactions

The Sava Insurance Group companies may outsource a function or activity that is critical or important for the company's business, in order for this function or activity to be performed better and/or more efficiently. This entails certain risks, such as dependence on external service providers and similar. Group companies are therefore very careful when outsourcing, taking into account all legal requirements as well as recommendations by local regulators. The outsourcing policy of the Sava Insurance Group sets out the minimum outsourcing standards for contracts concluded within and outside the Group.

14.4.5 Complaint resolution

When handling complaints submitted by policyholders (and other beneficiaries of insurance contracts), individual companies that are insurance or pension companies follow the rules and procedures for resolving complaints that comply with local laws and guidelines of the European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA), and the asset management company complies with the guidelines of the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) in addition to the applicable laws and regulations in this field.

In accordance with the Sava Insurance Group governance rules, complaints addressed at Sava Re but relating to subsidiaries' operations are recorded at Sava Re. After complaints have been examined, they are submitted to subsidiaries for resolution. The office of the management board and compliance at Sava Re maintains an internal online register of such complaints. A total of 6 complaints were recorded in 2021.

All subsidiaries also have in place internal rules, prescribed procedures, and instructions for monitoring and handling complaints in accordance with applicable laws.

14.4.6 Fair business practices115

The values and principles of ethical conduct are defined in the "Code of ethics of the Sava Insurance Group" (hereinafter: the "Code of Ethics"), which was adopted also by the Group's subsidiaries. The general principles of the Code of Ethics represent the basic values of the Sava Insurance Group, which are binding on all our employees and include: fairness and compliance of business operations, transparency, managing conflicts of interest, prevention of money-laundering and financing of terrorism, and prevention of restriction of competition. Employees who are aware of violations of the Code or other binding rules must report them to the compliance function holder. No violations of the Code of Ethics were observed in 2021.

In the conduct of their business the Group's insurance companies comply with the provisions of the adopted Insurance Code to ensure business development, a professional underwriting process and business conduct. The (re)insurance companies' operations are grounded in compliance with market principles, market competition based on loyalty and integrity, and insurance economics and business ethics, with the aim of providing customers high-quality (re)insurance protection.

Sava Re has also signed the Slovenian Corporate Integrity Guidelines, committing the Group to creating a work environment grounded in a culture of corporate integrity, zero tolerance for illegal and unethical conduct of its employees, compliance with legislation, rules and values as well as in the highest ethical standards.

Sava Re uses as its reference code the 2016 Slovenian Corporate Governance Code for Listed Companies, which was updated in 2021 and came into effect on 1 January 2022.

At the end of 2017, Sava Re also adopted a policy on the diversity of the management and supervisory boards of Sava Re, which governs and preserves, inter alia, the gender- and age-balance of all board members.116 Sava Re has integrated respect for human rights in its operations in accordance with the applicable legislation and follows the proposal for the national action plan on business and human rights of the Republic of Slovenia. The Company has adopted the rules on prevention and elimination of violence, bullying, harassment and other forms of psychosocial risks in the workplace, including a protocol for recognising and resolving such risks.117 In 2021, the Company recorded no such cases.

Sava Re follows the principles and guidelines of the rules on the management of conflicts of interest. The rules aim to mitigate the effects of conflicts of interest and manage conflicts of interest that may arise in the performance of the duties and tasks of individuals in the Company, by establishing and implementing procedures and measures to be applied when a conflict of interest arises.118

Fraud prevention and detection systems are in place in all Group companies.

In this regard, the Sava Insurance Group continuously updates its system and procedures, in particular by raising awareness, building knowledge, and standards of ethical conduct.

In accordance with the provisions of the Slovenian Corporate Integrity Guidelines, the Sava Insurance Group purchasing policy and internal rules of the Slovenia-based Group members, all contracts establishing legal relations must include an anti-corruption clause, general terms and conditions of business cooperation as well as provisions regarding confidential data and protection of personal data.

The Sava Re "Rules on the management of conflicts of interest" prescribe the procedures and rules relating to receiving gifts, entertainment and hospitality. A detailed and transparent gift policy reduces the risk of unfounded allegations and the spread of distrust regarding employee integrity in the discharge of their duties.

The Sava Insurance Group did not record any corruption cases in 2021.120

14.4.8 Protection of personal data121

The Sava Insurance Group is aware of the growing importance of ensuring the protection of privacy and personal data for customer and employee satisfaction, as well as the wider social implications of irresponsible management of personal data. In line with its commitments to high ethical standards, it will continue to focus its attention on this field in close connection with the provision of cyber security.

In 2021, Sava Re established a support function for privacy and personal data protection to facilitate the harmonisation and standardisation of privacy protection across the Group. It adopted an umbrella "Privacy and personal data protection policy", which first and foremost gives more weight to authorised data protection officers and integrates privacy as an important concern into all relevant business and support processes. It launched the optimisation and digitisation of personal data management, revised and updated certain internal acts, and strengthened cooperation between relevant stakeholders.

In 2022, Sava Re will continue with activities aimed at the sustainable management of the privacy of employees, customers and the Group's business partners, with an emphasis on the trends in the development of artificial intelligence and modern technologies. Due to the expected adoption of new legislation in the Republic of Slovenia in 2022 the personal data protection activities will probably also focus on adjusting to these changes.

The Sava Insurance Group companies have in place internal acts that prescribe the procedures and measures for the protection of personal data. The data is adequately protected through technical and organisational measures designed to ensure their confidentiality, integrity and availability. The companies subject to these measures also appointed data protection officers (DPOs) responsible for providing advice regarding and supervision over personal data protection. The companies strive to ensure open, transparent and straightforward communication with individuals whose data they process.

14.4.9 Contributions to political parties122

In line with the adopted "Code of ethics" and the rules on sponsorship and donations, Sava Re does not finance political parties, nor does any of its subsidiaries.

The Sava Insurance Group has committed to social responsibility in its mission statement and values. The Group promotes quality of life and building relationships with care, integrity and respect. We are active in relation to our natural and social environment.

The Sava Insurance Group members forge strong ties with the community they serve, seeking to establish long-term partnerships. They support their communities through projects with which they help institutions financially or with volunteer work and are actively involved in social activities and actions.

Having already developed an extensive business network, Group companies can more easily recognise the needs and potentials of local communities.

Based on the scope of giving back to the community, including donations, sponsorships and preventive means, Slovenia-based insurance companies (including the Croatian branch office) account for approximately 92% of all Group funds.

Certain members of our Group are the co-founders of the Network for Social Responsibility of Slovenia, members of the Institute for the Development of Social Responsibility and members of the Partnership for National Strategy and Social Responsibility.123

14.5.1 Sponsorships and donations by substance124

The Sava Insurance Group promotes social responsibility and strengthens its visibility as a sustainability partner; it operates ethically and gives back to the community, primarily with financial and other assistance in the pro-

motion of healthy life and well-being for all at all ages by supporting sports activities, investing in educational, development and training programmes, humanitarian projects, ecology and health, paying special attention to underprivileged groups. We also support the efforts that drive the growth and development of the economy, especially startups that develop innovative solutions.

Giving back to the community through sponsorship and donations is governed by rules. Sava Re's rules are published on its website. The value of sponsorships and donations in 2021 was up 10%, with the bulk of funds allocated to sports (81%).

14.5.2 Preventive action projects125

Preventive projects have a significant impact on the insurance industry as they reduce the likelihood of loss events and raise awareness with the general public of the importance of protecting property and health. To this end the insurance companies create special funds for such projects in line with the local legislation.

Such funds are available at Zavarovalnica Sava in Slovenia, Sava Neživotno Osiguranje in the Republic of Serbia, and Sava Osiguranje in Montenegro.

Zavarovalnica Sava invests in prevention, mainly in order to prevent fire hazards and increase road safety. At the local and national level, Zavarovalnica Sava supports fire-fighting activities, while its long-standing cooperation with the national automobile association AMZS is crucial for better road safety. Two key projects resulting from this collaboration are the Best Driver project aimed at young drivers, raising awareness of the importance of road safety and the acquisition of practical experience, and the 365 Days to Go! project that reminds motorists in the vicinity of schools and kindergartens that schoolchildren are on the road all year round, not just at the start of the school year when this issue is most often discussed.

125 GRI 203-02, 413-01.

The bulk of prevention funds in Serbia are allocated to fire protection.

Montenegrin companies also allocate most of these funds to road safety, and Sava Osiguranje (MNE), the owner of the subsidiary Sava Car, has set up a network of ten vehicle inspection centres.

Similarly, the subsidiary Sava Station in North Macedonia also has two vehicle inspection centres.

A comprehensive offer of vehicle inspection and registration compliant with strict technical standards, including sale of motor policies after vehicle inspection provided through our subsidiaries, contributes to better road safety.

Since 2019 Zavarovalnica Sava has been developing its Loneliness initiative, which tackles the problem of emotional distress and suicide, and raises awareness of the importance of mental health and problems that arise when mental health is disturbed. With the initiative they communicate their belief that companies with call centres have the power and responsibility to help people in distress, and invite such companies to join them.

The initiative has won several prestigious awards:

  • Netko, a symbol of online excellence award (Slovenian Chamber of Commerce and register.si) for the best social responsibility website and best project in 2020 in Slovenia,
  • Prizma Award (Public Relations Society of Slovenia) special award for excellence in communication,
  • second place in the socially responsible projects category at WEBSSI competition Web Champions,
  • silver prize in the social good category and silver prize in the digital communications category at the Slovenian Advertising Festival (SOF) (Slovenian Advertising Chamber).

14.5.3 Corporate volunteerism – Heart for the World126 initiative

The Sava Insurance Group supports corporate volunteerism. Its major volunteer project in past was the Sava Insurance Group Day, when employees went outdoors for clean-up actions or helped the elderly and with local community projects while enjoying each other's company. The event was scheduled to be implemented for the tenth time in 2020 but was cancelled on the recommendation of the medical experts due to the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, so we redesigned it in 2021 to adapt to the new circumstances.

As Covid-19 restrictions prohibited socialising in larger groups, we asked the Sava Insurance Group employees to tackle environmental and social challenges at home or with their families. Our employees documented their activities with photographs and wrote down their thoughts, poems and similar. Their contributions were presented in a digital exhibition and the best ideas were rewarded. At the same time, we organised lectures on pressing sustainability issues such as waste management and greenhouse gas emissions.

At Christmas, Save Re employees in cooperation with Slovenian Philanthropy invited the elderly residents of two nursery homes for a Christmas coffee. As we could not do it in person, we asked our employees to send them good wishes, which we delivered with an enormous Christmas card.

Conforming to the epidemiological circum stances and recommended preventative measures our companies organised other ac tivities as well, including the traditional blood drives, and park and riverbank clean-ups.

Volunteerism thus became a months-long activity that we aspire to turn into an ongoing, year-round effort by all employees, a propo sition for all employees to always act respon sibly, both with people and the environment. With this in mind, we gave the Sava Insurance Group Day a new name in 2021 and called it the Heart for the World initiative.

14.5.4 Commitments to external initiatives127

In the Sava Insurance Group, we participate in initiatives promoting ethical conduct and en vironmentally, socially and economically sus tainable business practice.

Concern for the natural environment, environmental issues, climate change and related weather phenomena have a profound impact on the global insurance industry. Environmental problems bring new and unexpected risks in the insurance sector. The Group is aware this requires urgent action in daily operations, both in practice and in strategic terms.

14.6.1 Waste disposal policy130

Sava Re has a waste separation system in place which is undergoing ongoing improvements. The Company also strives to reduce waste. We cannot yet measure the volume of waste by type, as waste is collected for the entire building, which accommodates a number of other legal entities. As 2021 was still marked by Covid-19 and hybrid working arrangements, the amount of waste generated and paper used could not be compared to the previous years.

Zavarovalnica Sava separates municipal waste by categories defined by regulations as waste collected by public waste collection services. Such waste is collected by the public service provider in a manner defined by state regulations and relevant municipal regulations for each branch office. The entities required to collect and report on municipal waste are therefore public utility companies.

Other waste generated by Zavarovalnica Sava through its activity is collected by registered waste treatment operators or collectors.The Sava Insurance Group generated the following waste in 2021.

the volume of waste:

In the future, the Company expects that the digitalisation of processes or the transition to paperless operation will lead to even bigger savings or a reduction in the volume of waste paper.

Slovenia-based companies separate waste according to instructions of local utility companies and relevant regulations.

Non-EU based companies have an electronic waste disposal service provider, whereas waste separation and removal are provided by public utility companies.

14.6.2 Energy consumption131

Energy consumption and energy efficiency is both an environmental and economic concern.

In 2020, the energy audit was performed in Sava Re and a report was drafted with proposals for improving its energy efficiency. On the basis of the findings of the energy audit and the calculation of its carbon footprint, an action plan to improve the Company's carbon footprint was adopted consisting of the following measures: homeworking, the performance of manual energy accounting, training of employees on efficient energy use, measures relating to the fleet and business travel.

Sava Re is gradually updating its fleet with plug-in hybrids and is preparing to build a charging point infrastructure that will service hybrid and electric company vehicles.

The action plan served as the basis for the adoption of the rules governing homeworking and the establishment of regular monitoring of energy consumption.

The Sava Insurance Group remains committed to sustainability also in investing and maintenance of investments. The rationale behind maintaining or replacing investments is always assessed also in terms of energy efficiency.

131 GRI 302-01.

A more significant investment in reducing energy consumption was the arrangement of new business premises for the Kosovo subsidiary Illyria in Pristina, which integrated modern, energy-efficient solutions in the final design. The renovation of Illyria Life business premises will also contribute to energy savings for our other subsidiary in Kosovo, Illyria Life, with new lighting fixtures and a cooling and ventilation system.

Several measures are being implemented also in property and fleet management.

Zavarovalnica Sava adopted several property management resolutions in the process of revamping larger business premises for its activity, which was to improve their energy-efficiency with building automation and systems for their efficient technical management (CNS, energy management). Our property management is thus gradually being upgraded with a central control system that is integrated in renovations and newly acquired larger locations. The central control system is the basis of energy management, as it provides insight into consumption patterns and therefore facilitates reduced consumption and improved energy efficiency.

As part of fleet management, Zavarovalnica Sava considers carbon dioxide emission values when purchasing new vehicles and takes care to regularly and adequately service its vehicles with tried and tested suppliers. In addition, it has established internal reporting that provides oversight of the use of company vehicles. In the event of any discrepancies, measures are taken to normalise fuel consumption (notification of users).

Fleet management has in place an app/IT tool for central control over fuel consumption in company vehicles and the subsequent adoption of relevant measures.

Zavarovalnica Sava also works with electric car-sharing service providers who offer such arrangements to employees, thus limiting their negative environmental impact.

Sava Re employees invite nursing home residents to a virtual Christmas coffee, sending them good thoughts and wishes.

14.6.3 Emissions – carbon footprint of the Sava Insurance Group for 2021132

The calculation of the carbon footprint for 2021 includes 16 companies of the Sava Insurance Group:

  • 2. Zavarovalnica Sava (SVN) 10 sites
  • 3. Sava Osiguranje, Croatian part
  • 4. Sava Infond (SVN)

  • 13. Sava Car (MNE)
  • 14. Sava Agent (MNE)
  • 15. Sava Osiguruvanje (MKD)
  • 16. Sava Penzisko Društvo (MKD)

Calculation of the carbon footprint took into account direct emissions from fossil fuels used for the heating of offices and fuel combustion in company-owned vehicles, and indirect emissions from power consumption, district heat production and business travel using vehicles not owned by companies. Calculation of the carbon footprint for 2021 included a larger number of companies that collected energy consumption and transportation data for

the first time. The Group-level pilot carbon footprint calculation below is therefore an assessment of its environmental impact, and the accuracy of the calculation will be systematically improved in the coming years.

The estimated carbon footprint of the Group in 2021 is 3,649 tonnes of CO2 equivalent (t CO2 equivalent). This means 1.51 t of CO2 equivalent per employee or 78 kg CO2 equivalent per square metre of office space.

The largest source of greenhouse gas emissions in 2021 was electricity consumption (55%), followed by business travel (24%) and heating (21%); it should be noted, however, that two companies use electricity for heating.

Sava Re and Sava Pokojninska calculated their carbon footprint already in 2019 and were joined in 2020 by Zavarovalnica Sava, Sava Infond and Sava Penzisko Društvo. Their total carbon footprint in 2021 was 7% higher than the previous year, when travel restrictions were in place and many employees worked from home. Average emissions from electricity consumption per employee in these companies increased by 5%, as well as average emissions per square metre from heating of business premises. The biggest contribution to the higher carbon footprint in 2021 was the 15% increase in emissions from business travel.

14.7.1.1 Sava Insurance Group's activities for responsible underwriting of environmental, social and governance risks

Aware of the impact of environmental risks, the Sava Insurance Group has focused also on adopting acts that will contribute to responsible underwriting of environmental, social and governance risks in (non-life) insurance business – hereinafter "ESG-risks".

To achieve this goal the Group adopted the guidelines ("Sava Insurance Group's guidelines for responsible underwriting of environmental, social and governance risks in non-life insurance business" – hereinafter: the Guidelines), designed to ensure that the Group companies act responsibly and in accordance with environmental, social and governance values when underwriting.

Grounded in established international experience the Guidelines define several key potential risk categories (e.g. risks related to mining, coal-fired power stations, extraction of oil and natural gas, construction of large hydroelectric power plants and dams, certain negative impacts of nuclear energy, tobacco production, fishing and animal husbandry, and healthcare), which guide insurance companies in assessing which ESG risks in particular to take into account when underwriting policyholders.

They are classified by their level of risk (not applicable, potential risk, potentially increased risk, etc.) and activity, e.g. mining, which allows an insurance company to assess whether underwriting represents a higher or lower level of risk. In other words, in case of increased risk, an insurance company is alerted to give it special consideration when underwriting a policy.

Along with the system of authorisations, which are to be introduced by an insurance company into its own underwriting processes based on the Guidelines (underwriting and ESG risk assessment), we will gradually develop a system of reporting on the relevant underwriting activities as well as on the measures that an insurance company has adopted or plans to adopt, with regard to the adoption of additional policies, rules, questionnaires and similar. These measures will facilitate both the policyholders and an insurance company in raising underwriting standards for these risks.

In addition to the Sava Insurance Group insurance companies, which will use the Guidelines in primary insurance business, the Guidelines also apply to Sava Re, which will ensure compliance with the Guidelines as well as observe them in individual reinsurance arrangements.

14.7.2 Investment

2020 saw the adoption of Regulation (EU) 2020/852 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the establishment of a framework to facilitate sustainable investment. The Regulation establishes the criteria for determining whether an economic activity qualifies as environmentally sustainable for the purposes of establishing the degree to which an investment is environmentally sustainable. Two Commission delegated regulations were adopted in 2021, namely Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2139 and (EU) 2021/2178, supplementing Regulation (EU) 2020/852 with detailed regulatory technical standards.

The Sava Insurance Group carefully monitors the development and implementation of sustainability-related regulations and policies, and sustainability policy will play an important part in investment decision making. With this in mind, the "Sustainability investment policy of the Sava Insurance Group" was adopted in 2021, and the tables below show the estimated data on compliance of the Group's investments with taxonomy, and exposure of the Group's portfolio to investments on the list of excluded sectors, which are specified in the sustainability investment policy.

14.7.2.1 Data methodology and assessment of compliance of investments with taxonomy

Investments of national and supranational issuers and central banks are excluded from the data shown, and types of investments cover all bonds and equities. Mutual, infrastructure and real estate funds are excluded. A large

majority of the Sava Insurance Group alternative funds comply with the sustainability policy criteria. Also excluded from the data shown are companies with 500 employees or fewer, because they are not subject to sustainability reporting.

The Sava Insurance Group does not use derivative financial

instruments.

Exposure to national and supranational issuers and central banks totals EUR 759,704,436.

The estimated data on compliance of investments with taxonomy are provided by Bloomberg services, and data coverage is ensured for 65.6% of the bond and equity investment portfolio of the Sava Insurance Group. This part of the portfolio is 37.4% taxonomy-aligned, and the total bond and equity investment portfolio is 24.5% taxonomy-aligned. At 21.4% the percentage of taxonomy-aligned investments is the highest in life, and the lowest in guaranteed funds. The data represent the assessed taxonomy compliance.

14.7.2.2 Compliance of bond and equity investments with the "Sustainability investment policy of the Sava Insurance Group"

In 2021, the Sava Insurance Group adopted the sustainability investment policy with a list of exclusions identifying the industries in which the Sava Insurance Group would no longer invest, and reduced its existing exposure to such investments. The sustainability investment policy defines in more detail the sectors and thresholds (as a percentage of revenue). Exposure to such investments is presented using the data provided by Moody's ESG Solutions (Vigeo Eiris) and criteria defined in the sustainability investment policy.

The first strategic period since the adoption of the first sustainable development strategy of the Sava Insurance Group expires in 2022.

Lessons learned from the outbreak of the 2020 pandemic and new experience will need to be evaluated and used as guidance and the basis for strategic decisions on sustainable development. We have also seen major shifts in regulations governing this area, and these will have a strong impact on our future development. There will be increased disclosure requirements and information will be harmonised for all market entities.

Our key guidelines and objectives for 2022 will be:

  1. Integration of adopted regulations into our business operations and the establishment of an adequate reporting system

This refers mainly to SFDR, CSRD, and taxonomy regulation with the relevant technical standards, which will require obtaining and compiling relevant reporting data.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) and Regulation (EU) No 537/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 April 2014 on specific requirements regarding statutory audit of public -interest entities (OJ L 158, 27.5.2014, p. 77 -112 - Regulation EU No 537/2014). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Separate and Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company and the Group in accordance with

International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) (IESBA Code) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements in Slovenia and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the IESBA Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do

not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

We have determined the following key audit matters:

IBNR provisions for non -life insurance

Significant complexity is also associated with estimating IBNR provisions. Several actuarial methods are available for calculating IBNR provisions, which need to be tailored to specific circumstances, based on the Management Board's judgment, in particular in respect of whether and to what extent past loss patterns can be applied in predicting claims reported in the future.

In view of the above -mentioned factors, measurement of the above -mentioned insurance contract liabilities represent s an area of significant audit risk which require d our increased attention. As such we considered it to be our key audit matter.

For IBNR provisions for non -life insurance

  • Assessing whether key data used in developing assumptions for IBNR provisions is appropriate (such as claim occurrence date, claim reporting date, claim payment date and amount of paid claim) by tracing them to the underlying Company's and the Group's evidence;
  • Challenging the key assumptions used in the IBNR provisions calculation. Specifically, among other things, we assessed whether development factors used by the Company and the Group based on our analysis of development factors in the past are appropriate;
  • Assessing the quality of the IBNR provision estimates based on the comparison of the provision amounts recognized in the past with actual paid claims (run off test);

For all above mentioned provisions

Assessing the Company's and the Group's disclosures in respect of above -mentioned provisions against the requirements of the relevant financial reporting standards.

Mathematical provisions for life insurance and technical provisions for the benefit of life insurance policyholders who bear the investment risk

Determination of the adequacy of mathematical provision s for life insurance and technical provisions for the benefit of life insurance policyholders who bear the investment risk is associated with significant estimation uncertainty as it involves complex models and actuarial analysis. In case inappropriate models, input data or assumptions are used in the underlying calculations, or in case such models, data or assumptions are inappropriately applied, there is a risk that insufficiency in the recognized amounts of the provisions is not identified.

At each reporting date, the Group is required to perform a liability adequacy test (hereinafter, "LAT") with an aim to determine whether the recognized technical provisions (mainly mathematical provisions for life insurance and technical provisions for the benefit of life insurance policyholders who bear the investment risk ) are sufficient. The test is based on the comparison of the Management Board's current estimate of the present value of future cash flows arising from the in -force insurance contracts with the stated amounts of the related provisions. In case the LAT shows that the amounts of technical provisions are insufficient in light of the estimated future cash flows, the entire deficiency is recognized in the profit or loss.

-

The Group's key assumptions used in the cash flow model include those in respect of expected expenses, mortality, morbidity and lapse rates and also the pattern of the policyholders' option exercise , investment yields and discount rates. Relatively insignificant changes in these assumptions can have a significant effect on the amounts of the related estimates due to the long -term nature of the obligations.

• Evaluating the methods and models used in measuring mathematical provision for life insurance, technical provisions for the benefit of life insurance policyholders who bear the investment risk and IBNR provisions against relevant regulatory and financial reporting requirements;

For mathematical provis ions for life insurance and technical provisions for the benefit of life insurance policyholders who bear the investment risk

  • Challenging the Group's current estimates of future cash flows used for LAT purposes by means of:
  • assessing whether key data used in developing LAT assumptions is appropriate (such as historical discount and inflation rate s, investment portfolio per reporting date, historical changes in policy status, data on expenses and incurred additional accident riders claims) by tracing them to the underlying Group evidence as well as, where applicable, external market data sources;
  • challenging the key assumptions used in the LAT. Specifically, among other things, we assessed whether the assumptions of mortality, morbidity, lapse rates and expenses as well as the pattern of the policyholders' option exercise were properly set based on the Group's experience studies and, where relevant, expected future changes, and whether the investment yields and discount rates used were in line with observable market rates;
  • assessing reasonableness of the movements in mathematical provisions for life insurance and technical provisions for the benefit of life insurance policyholders who bear the investment risk for the year, starting from the opening value and developing our independent expectation for the closing balance considering the items which should result in an increase in the provisions (such as premiums, technical interest rate, profit sharing, yield rate) and those which result in its decrease (claims, expense loadings, risk premium);

• Evaluating the accuracy and completeness of the Company's disclosures regarding the key assumptions and judgements applied while assessing the recoverable amounts of the investments in subsidiaries.

Other Information

Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the "Business Report of the Sava Insurance Group and Sava Re " and "Appendices" included in the Annual Report but does not include the separate and consolidated financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. Other information was obtained prior to the date of this auditors' report, except for the Report of the Supervisory Board, which will be available after that date.

Our opinion on the separate and consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the separate and consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

With respect to the Business Report, we considered whether it includes the disclosures required by the Company's Act dated 4 May 2006 (official gazette of Republic of Slovenia No. 42/2006 with amendments - hereafter referred to as "the applicable legal requirements"). Based solely on the work required to be undertaken in the course of the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements and the procedures above, in our opinion, in all material respects:

  • the information given in the Business Report for the financial year for which the separate and consolidated financial statements are prepared, is consistent with the separate and consolidated financial statements; and
  • the Business Report has been prepared in accordance with the applicable legal requirements.

In addition, in light of the knowledge and understanding of the entity and its environment in which it operates, obtained in the course of our audit, we are required to report if we have identified material misstatements in other information that we obtained prior to the date of this auditors' report. We have nothing to report in this respect.

Impairment of financial investments in subsidiaries (separate financial statements)

Financial investments in subsidiaries as at 31 December 202 1: EUR 304,554,991 (31 December 2020: EUR 304,072,412), related impairment loss recognized in 202 1 : nil (2020 : EUR 2,003,035).

We refer to the separate financial statements: Note 17.4.13 (accounting policies), Note 17.7.6 (financial disclosures).

asset management and supporting businesses. In the separate financial statements, these investments are carried at cost less impairment losses, if any. As at each reporting date, Management Board assesses whether indications exist that their carrying amounts might not be recoverable. Indications of impairment may include, among other things, significant operating losses, negative shareholders' equity or financial performance otherwise below the planned levels.

Once impairment indicators are identified for an investment, the Management Board estimates its recoverable amount, being the higher of its fair value less costs to sell or the value -in -use, using internal model.

Our response
Our procedures, performed with the support
from our own valuation specialists, included,

The determination of the recoverable amounts, performed primarily on the basis of discounted cash flow models, involves significant Management Board judgment and estimates in respect of the model assumptions such as growth rates, discount rates and forecasted net operating profit .

Based on the above -mentioned circumstances, satisfying ourselves in respect of the impairment of investments in subsidiaries required our increased attention in the audit and was considered by us to be a key audit matter.

among others:

  • Testing design and implementation of selected controls within the process of testing investments in subsidiaries for impairment, such as those over projections and all inputs used in valuation model.
  • Challenging the Company's identification of impairment indicators and consequently the requirement to perform related impairment tests, based on our understanding of the current market conditions and by independently assessing the investees' financial performance, based, among other things, on the analysis of their financial performance against past forecasts;
  • For the investments with impairment indicators, evaluating assumptions and judgements applied by the Company to determine their recoverable amounts. Our assessment covered, among others:
  • challenging the discount rate used in the model, which we estimated independently by reference to publicly available external sources;
  • evaluating the reasonableness of the Management Board's impairment model assumptions, such as, growth rate and forecasted net operating profit. This included, but was not limited to, inspecting the subsidiaries' financial statements, approved budgets, making corroborating inquiries of the Company's directors regarding the subsidiaries' financial performance, analysing their actual performance against past forecasts, as well as inspecting external evidence in support of the GDP growth and other macroeconomic variables ;

statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

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 communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our

independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied .

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors' 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.

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements

We were appointed by the shareholders of the Company on the shareholders meeting dated 21 May 2019 to audit the Company's and the Group's respective separate and consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 202 1 . Our total uninterrupted period of engagement is three years.

We confirm that:

  • our audit opinion is consistent with the additional report presented to the Audit Committee of the Company dated 20 April 2022;
  • we have not provided any prohibited non audit services (NASs) referred in Article 5 of Regulation (EU) No 537/2014. We als o remained independent of the Company and the Group in conducting the audit.

For the period to which our statutory audit relates, in addition to the audit and services, which are disclosed in the Management Report or in the separate and consolidated financial statements, we have not provided any other services to the Company or the Group.

Independent auditor's report on the compliance of the electronic financial statements with the delegated regulation 2019/815 on a single electronic reporting format

We have conducted an engagement to provide reasonable assurance as to whether the audited consolidated financial statements of the Group, for the financial year ended 31 December 2021 ('Audited Consolidated Financial Statements') have been prepared in accordance with requirements of the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU)

2019/815 of 17 December 2018 on supplementing the Directive 2004/109/EC of the European Parliament and the Council with regard to regulatory technical standards for establishing a single electronic reporting format applicable for the year 2021 ("Delegated Regulation").

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Separate and Consolidated Financial Statements

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

In preparing the separate and consolidated financial statements, management is

responsible for assessing the Company's and the Group'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 the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

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

Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Separate and Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the separate and consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' 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 and Regulation (EU) No 537/2014 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 separate and consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs and Regulation (EU) No 537/2014, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the separate and consolidated 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 and the Group'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 and the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors' report to the related disclosures in the separate and consolidated 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 auditors' report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company or the Group to cease to continue as a going concern;
  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the separate and consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the separate and consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
  • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial

Opinion

Based on the procedures performed and the evidence obtained, the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group for the financial year ended 31 December 2021 are in our opinion prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the requirements of the Delegated Regulation.

free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the preparation of the electronic Audited Consolidated Financial Statements in compliance with requirements of the Delegated Regulation.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on whether the audited financial statements are prepared in accordance with requirements of the Delegated Regulation. We conducted our assurance engagement in accordance with the International Standard on Assurance Engagements 3000 - Assurance Engagements other than Audits or Reviews of Historical Financial Information (ISAE 3000) issued by the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board. This standard requires that we plan and perform the engagement to obtain reasonable assurance on whether the opinion is appropriate. We have acted in accordance with the independence and ethical requirements of the EU Regulation 537/2014

and the International Code of Ethics for Accounting Professionals issued by the International Ethics Standards Board for Accounting Professionals. The Code is based on the fundamental principles of integrity, objectivity, professional competence and due care, confidentiality and professional conduct. Our company operates in accordance with the International Standards on Quality Control ( (ISQC 1) and maintains a comprehensive quality management system, including documented policies and procedures regarding compliance with ethical requirements, professional standards and applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

Summary of Work Performed

Within the scope of our work, we performed the following audit procedures:

  • identified and assessed the risks of material non-compliance of the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements with the requirements of the Delegated
  • Regulation, whether due to error or fraud; - obtained an understanding of internal control relevant to the engagement in order to provide reasonable assurance for designing procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control;
  • assessed whether the Audited Separate and Consolidated Financial Statements hereof comply with the requirements of the

Delegated Regulation applicable as of the reporting date;

  • obtained reasonable assurance that the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the issuer are presented in a correct XHTML electronic format.
  • obtained reasonable assurance that the values and disclosures in the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements in XHTML format are correctly marked and in Inline XBRL (iXBRL) technology and that their machine reading provides complete and accurate information contained in the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements.

We believe that the evidence obtained provides a sufficient and appropriate basis for our opinion.

The table "Ten largest shareholders and the list of holders of qualified holdings pursuant to the Takeovers Act as at 31 December 2021" (section 3.2 "General information on the share") is followed by an additional note on the share of voting rights in Sava Re (section 3.2 "General information on the share").

It is the responsibility of the Company's management board to prepare the annual report and authorise it for issue to the supervisory board. The audited annual report is then approved by the Company's supervisory board. If the annual report is not approved by the supervisory board, or if the management and supervisory boards leave the decision about its approval (authorisation for issue) to the general meeting of shareholders, the general meeting also decides on the approval (authorisation for issue) of the annual report.

The general meeting has the power to amend the annual report after it has been approved by the Company's management board; however, it must be re-audited by the external auditor within two weeks after its approval by the general meeting.

17.3 Consolidation principles

The parent company prepared both separate and consoli dated financial statements as at 31 December 2021.

The consolidated financial statements include Sava Re as the parent and all its subsidiaries, i.e. companies in which Sava Re holds, directly or indirectly, more than half of the voting rights and has the power to control their fi nancial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from their activities.

The consolidated financial statements of the Sava Insur ance Group include all companies directly or indirectly controlled by Sava Re, which controls a company if and only if it has all the following elements:

  • power over the company (directs the relevant activi ties that significantly affect the company's returns),
  • exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its in volvement with the company, and
  • the ability to use its power over the company to affect the amount of its returns.

The Group's consolidated financial statements also in clude associate companies in which the members of the Sava Insurance Group (parent and subsidiaries) hold, directly or indirectly, between 20% and 50% of all vot ing rights. If they hold less than 20%, they can still have significant influence, provided such influence can be demonstrated.

All subsidiaries in the Sava Insurance Group are fully con solidated. Interests in associates and joint ventures are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method.

The financial year of the Group is the same as the calen dar year.

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated as of the date of ob taining control and are deconsolidated as of the date that such control is lost.

Subsidiaries that manage pension funds and management companies that manage the funds' assets are consolidat ed without the funds as under law such fund assets are separate from the assets of the company that manages them. Accordingly, these funds are not included in the consolidated financial statements.

At the time of an entity's first consolidation, its assets and liabilities are measured at fair value. Goodwill is measured as the excess of the fair value of the consid eration effectively transferred over the net amount of the acquirer's (controlling company's) interest in the fair value of the acquired identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities. Subsequently, goodwill is measured at cost less any impairment losses.

When acquiring a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary (when the Group already holds a controlling interest), the carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their rela tive interests in the subsidiary. The Group recognises any difference between the amount by which the non-con trolling interests are adjusted, and the fair value of the consideration paid directly in equity, and attributes it to the owners of the parent. The difference between cost and the carrying amount of the non-controlling interest is accounted for in equity under capital reserves.

Profits earned and losses made by subsidiaries are includ ed in the Group's income statement. Intra-Group trans actions (receivables and liabilities, expenses and income between the consolidated companies) have been elimi nated.

All companies within the Group apply uniform account ing policies. If the accounting policies of a subsidiary dif fer from the accounting policies applied by the Group, appropriate adjustments are made to the financial state ments of such subsidiary prior to the compilation of the consolidated financial statements to ensure compliance with the accounting policies of the Group.

17.4 Significant accounting policies

Significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the consolidated and separate financial statements are set out below. In 2021, the Group applied the same ac counting policies as in 2020. As for the implementation of IFRS 9, the Group applied the temporary exemption until the adoption of IFRS 17 "Insurance contracts". For more information, see section 17.5 "Standards and inter pretations issued but not yet effective, and new standards and interpretations".

17.4.1 Statement of compliance

The consolidated and separate financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Fi nancial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) issued by the In ternational Accounting Standards Board (IASB), and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee's (IFRIC), as adopted by the European Union. They have also been prepared in ac cordance with applicable Slovenian legislation (the Com panies Act, ZGD-1). The "Sava Insurance Group financial control rules" lay down accounting policies that must be followed by subsidiaries when reporting for consolidation purposes. The "Rules on accounting and accounting pol icies of Sava Re d.d." set down in detail the accounting policies of the Company.

Interested parties can obtain information on the financial condition and results of operations of the Sava Insurance Group by consulting the annual report. Annual reports are available on Sava Re's website and at its registered office.

In selecting and applying accounting policies, as well as in preparing the financial statements, the management board of the parent company aims at providing under standable, relevant, reliable and comparable accounting information.

The financial statements have been prepared based on the going-concern assumption.

The Company's management board approved the audited financial statements on 21 April 2022.

17.4.2 Measurement bases

The financial statements have been prepared on the his toric cost basis, except for financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss, and available-for-sale financial assets, which are measured at fair value. Assets of policyholders who bear the investment risk are also measured at fair value.

17.4.3 Presentation currency, translation of transactions and items

The financial statements are presented in euros (EUR) without cents. The euro is the functional and presenta tion currency of the Group companies. Due to rounding, figures in tables may not add up to the totals.

Assets and liabilities as at 31 December 2021 denom inated in foreign currencies have been translated into euros using the mid-rates of the European Central Bank (hereinafter: "ECB") as at 31 December 2021. Amounts in the income statements have been translated using the average exchange rate. As at 31 December 2020 and 31 December 2021, they were translated using the then applicable mid-rates of the ECB. Foreign exchange differences arising on settlement of transactions and on translation of monetary assets and liabilities are recog nised in the income statement. Exchange rate differenc es associated with non-monetary items, such as equity securities carried at fair value through profit or loss, are also recognised in the income statement, while exchange rate differences associated with equity securities classi fied as available for sale are recognised in the fair value reserve. Since equity items in the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2021 are translated using the exchange rates of the ECB on that day and since interim movements are translated using the average exchange rates of the ECB, any differences arising therefrom are disclosed in the equity item translation reserve.

17.4.4 Use of major accounting estimates, sources of uncertainty

Assumptions and other sources of uncertainty relate to es timates that require management to make complex, sub jective and comprehensive judgements. Areas that involve significant management judgement are presented below.

  • The need for impairment of goodwill is assessed using the accounting policy under section 17.4.7 "Goodwill" and note 1.
  • Criteria for impairment of investments in subsidiaries and associates are determined using the accounting policy under section 17.4.13 "Financial investments in subsidiaries and associates" and under note 6.
  • Deferred tax assets are recognised if Group entities plan to realise a profit in their medium-term projec tions. For details, see section 17.4.11 "Deferred tax as sets and liabilities" and note 4.
  • Receivables are impaired based on the accounting pol icy set out in section 17.4.17 "Receivables". Any recog nised impairment loss is shown in note 11.
  • Financial investments: Classification, recognition, measurement and derecognition, investment impair ment and fair value measurement, are made based on the accounting policy set out in section 17.4.14 "Finan cial investments and assets held for the benefit of poli cyholders who bear the investment risk". Movement in investments and their classification are shown in note 7, whereas the associated income and expenses, and im pairment losses are shown in note 32.
  • Technical provisions calculation and liability adequa cy tests pertaining to insurance contracts are shown in sections 17.4.24–26. Movements in these provisions are shown in note 24.

• Estimates are used for recognising technical items be cause reinsurance accounts relating to accepted rein surance business are not received in time. Estimates relate to amounts in reinsurance contracts, which, ac cording to contractual due dates, have already accrued, although the Company has yet to receive reinsurance accounts. These items include: premiums, claims, com missions, unearned premiums, claims provisions and

deferred acquisition costs.

17.4.5 Cash flow statement

The cash flow statement has been prepared using the indirect method. The cash flow statement has been pre pared as the sum of all cash flows of all Group companies less any inter-Group cash flows. Cash flows from oper ating activities have been prepared based on data from the 2021 statement of financial position and income statement, with appropriate adjustments for items that do not constitute cash flows. Cash flows from financing activities are shown based on actual disbursements. Items relating to changes in net operating assets are shown in net amounts.

17.4.6 Intangible assets

Intangible assets, except goodwill, are stated at cost, in cluding any expenses directly attributable to preparing them for their intended use, less accumulated amortisa tion and any impairment losses. Amortisation is calcu lated for each item separately, on a straight-line basis, except for goodwill, which is not amortised. Intangible assets are first amortised upon their availability for use.

Intangible assets include computer software, licences pertaining to computer software (with useful life assumed to be five years). In case of recognition of a specific in tangible asset with a longer useful life (customer list or contractual customer relationships), the useful life is de fined in a separate valuation report.

For material intangible assets (e.g. customer lists), the Company and the Group assess the need for impairment at least annually. If any indication of impairment exists, the recoverable amount is examined. The recoverable amount is the net value in use estimated using future cash flows. The value in use is generally determined in a separate valuation report.

If the recoverable amount exceeds or is equal to the car rying amount, the asset is not impaired. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset ex ceeds its recoverable amount.

17.4.7 Goodwill

Goodwill arises on the acquisition of subsidiaries. In ac quisitions, goodwill relates to the excess of the cost of the business combination over the acquirer's interest in the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contin gent liabilities of the acquired company. If the excess is negative (badwill), it is recognised directly in the income statement. The recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit so calculated is compared against its carrying amount, including goodwill belonging to such unit. The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and value in use.

Method of calculating value in use

Value in use for each cash-generating unit is calculated using the discounted cash flow method (DCF method). The budget projections of the CGUs and their estimate of the long-term results achievable are used as a starting point. Value in use is determined by reference to free cash flows discounted at an appropriate discount rate.

The discount rate is determined as the cost of equity (COE), using the capital asset pricing model (CAPM). It is based on the interest rate on risk-free securities, equity premium, and insurance business prospects applying the beta factor. Added is a country risk premium and a size premium.

The elements of the discount rate have been taken from the following sources:

  • The risk-free rate of return is based on the yield to maturity of 30-year German government bonds (source: Bloomberg).
  • The equity risk premium has been taken from the pub lication of KPMG Netherlands "Equity market risk premium," Research Summary, November 2020.
  • Tax rates included in the discount rate calculation are the applicable tax rates in individual countries where companies operate.
  • Beta for individual industries has been calculated with reference to comparable companies of the same in dustry of MSCI Small Cap Europe (source: Bloomb erg).

• The country risk premiums have been calculated as the difference between the yield to maturity of German long-term government bonds and a comparable local

  • bond issued (source: Bloomberg).
  • December 2019.

• Size premium: CRSP Deciles Study, Duff & Phelps,

The bases for the testing of value in use are prepared in several phases: In phase one, the Company prepares three- or five-year projections of performance results for each company as part of the regular planning process unified Group-wide. These strategic plans are approved by the parent company and confirmed by the relevant governance body. For insurance and pension companies, it is additionally assessed whether the capital required for an insurance company to operate under local regulations would be fully engaged.

Premium growth and profitability was planned for foreign insurance companies in three- and five-year projections in view of the low insurance penetration rates. Insurance penetration is expected to increase markedly due to the expected convergence of their countries' macroeconomic indicators towards levels common in western European countries. Western Balkan markets, which have a rela tively low penetration rate, are expected to see a faster growth in gross premiums than in expected GDP.

The profitability of pension companies is expected to grow, driven by increased contributions to pension funds as the result of demographic trends and at relatively fixed operating costs.

To estimate the residual value used in the calculation of the estimated value of equity, the calculation considers normalised cash flow in the last year of the forecast made using the Gordon growth model. Subsidiaries have been valued using a long-term growth rate (g) ranging from 0–2% to calculate the residual value. For Slovenia-based companies, other than the pension company, this growth rate is based on the average risk-free rate of return total ling 0%; for other markets, including the Slovenian pen sion company, it totals 2% and is based on the expected long-term industry growth rate.

A cash-generating unit consists of an individual company. Movement in goodwill is discussed in detail in note 1 of section 17.7 "Notes to the financial statements – state ment of financial position".

Goodwill of associate companies is included in their re spective carrying amount. Any impairment losses on their goodwill are treated as impairment losses on investments in associate companies.

Section 17.7 "Notes to the financial statements – state ment of financial position", note 1, sets out the main as sumptions for cash flow projections with a calculation of value in use.

17.4.8 Property, plant and equipment

Items of property, plant and equipment are initially rec ognised at cost, including cost directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. Subsequently, the cost model is applied: assets are carried at cost, less accumulated de preciation and any impairment losses.

Items of property, plant and equipment are first depre ciated upon their availability for use. Amortisation is cal culated for each item separately, on a straight-line basis. Depreciation rates are determined so as to allow the cost of property, plant and equipment assets to be allocated over their estimated useful lives.

Depreciation rates of property, plant and equipment assets

Depreciation group Rate
Land 0.0%
Buildings 1.3–2.0%
Transportation means 15.5–20.0%
Computer equipment 33.33%
Office and other furniture 10.0–12.5%
Other equipment 6.7–20.0%

An assessment is made annually to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indi cation exists, an estimate of the recoverable amount of the asset is made. The recoverable amount is the higher of the value in use and fair value less costs to sell. If the recoverable amount exceeds or is equal to the carrying amount, the asset is not impaired. Value in use is assessed in terms of a cash-generating unit, with a company as a whole constituting a cash-generating unit.

Gains and losses on the disposal of items of property, plant and equipment, calculated as the difference be tween sales proceeds and carrying amounts, are included in profit or loss. The costs of property, plant and equip ment maintenance and repairs are recognised in profit or loss as incurred. Investments in property, plant and equipment assets that increase future economic benefits are recognised in their carrying amount.

17.4.9 Right-of-use assets

Right-of-use assets are recorded when a contract con tains a lease that conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

Right-of-use assets are recognised at the present value of future lease payments, in accordance with IFRS 16, and lease liabilities are recognised. Right-of-use assets are amortised through value adjustments in the amount equalling depreciation calculated based on the lease term. Lease liability is increased by interest expense calculated on the lease liability and decreased by lease payments made. Right-of-use assets and lease liability are recog nised in net amount, excluding taxes. Group companies recognise payments for short-term and low-value leases as an expense.

As of 1 January 2019, the Group companies recognise right-of-use assets relating to long-term leases (more than one year) and not relating to low-value assets (ac quisition cost below EUR 5,000), and lease liabilities. The value of the right-of-use asset comprises the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability, initial di rect costs incurred by the lessee, and an estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset. All lease contracts have been re viewed, examining the right to control the use of an iden tified asset for a definite period. The lease term is either set in the contract or estimated, if the lease contract is entered into for an indefinite period or has an extension option. The right-of-use assets are calculated as dis counted future cash flows of the lease payments over the lease term. Lease liability is also recognised. The applied discount rate consists of the incremental borrowing rate and takes into account the company's credit rating and lease term, and country risk for Group companies outside Slovenia. Upon the occurrence of a significant event that has an impact on the lease, the lease term and the value of the asset are reassessed.

The cost model is applied, where the right-of-use asset is measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and ad justed for any remeasurement of the lease liability using a revised discount rate. Upon the initial application of the standard the Group companies used the modified ap proach.

17.4.10 Non-current assets held for sale

A non-current asset is classified as held for sale if its car rying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. For this to be the case, its sale must be highly probable, and it must be available for immediate sale in its present condi tion. There must be a commitment to sell the asset and the sale should be completed within one year. Such assets are measured at the lower of the assets' carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell and are not depreciated.

17.4.11 Deferred tax assets and liabilities

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are amounts of income taxes expected to be recoverable or payable, respectively, in future periods depending on taxable temporary differ ences. Temporary differences are differences between the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the state ment of financial position and its tax base.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are established for tem porary non-deductible impairments of portfolio invest ments. Deferred tax assets are additionally established for impairment losses on receivables, unused tax losses and for provisions for employees.

Deferred tax liabilities arise from catastrophe equalisation reserves transferred from technical provisions to profit reserves (as at 1 January 2007), which were tax-deduct -

ible when set aside (prior to 1 January 2007), and from fair value adjustments and newly recognised intangible assets (customer lists or contractual customer relation ships) on acquisition of a new company.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are established also for the part of value adjustments recorded under fair value reserve. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are also ac counted for actuarial gains or losses arising on the calcu lation of provisions for severance pay upon retirement. This is because actuarial gains and losses, and the related deferred tax assets or liabilities, affect comprehensive income.

A Group company sets off deferred tax assets and liabil ities, provided that the criteria have been satisfied. The Group does not set off deferred tax assets and liabilities in its consolidated financial statements.

A deferred tax asset is recognised for unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differ ences can be utilised. In 2020, such deferred tax assets were recognised.

In 2020, deferred tax assets and liabilities were account ed for using tax rates that the management believes will be used to tax the differences. The tax rate applicable for most Group companies (Slovenia) is 19% (2019: 19%), and 9–18% for other companies (Croatia 18%, Serbia 15%, Kosovo and North Macedonia 10%, Montenegro 9%).

17.4.12 Investment property

Investment property comprises assets not used directly for carrying out business activities but held to earn rent or to realise capital gains at disposal. Investment property is accounted for using the cost model and straight-line depreciation. Investment property is depreciated at the rate of 1.3–2.0%. The basis for calculating the deprecia tion rate is the estimated useful life. All leases where the Group companies act as lessors are cancellable operating leases. Lease payments (rentals) received are recognised as income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. A cash-generating unit consists of an individual property. An assessment is made annually as to whether there is an indication of impairment of investment property. If any such indication exists, an estimate of the recovera ble amount of the asset is made. The recoverable amount is the higher of the value in use and the net selling price less costs to sell. If the recoverable amount exceeds or is equal to the carrying amount, the asset is not impaired.

The Group companies measure the fair value of invest ment property using fair value models.

17.4.13 Financial investments in subsidiaries and associates

Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost, less any impairment losses. Subsidiaries are entities in which the Company holds more than 50% of voting rights and which the Company controls, i.e. has the power to con trol their financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from their activities. Subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements using the full con solidation method.

Associates are entities in which the Company holds be tween 20% and 50% of voting rights or over which the Company has significant influence. Associates are ac counted for using the equity method.

Impairment

Impairment testing in Group companies and associates is carried out at least on an annual basis. Pursuant to IAS 36, the controlling company, when reviewing whether there are indications that an asset may be impaired, con siders external (changes in market or legal environment, interest rates, elements of the discount rate, capitalisa tion) as well as internal sources of information (business volume, manner of use of asset, actual versus budgeted performance results, decline in expected cash flows and such like).

If impairment is necessary, an impairment test is carried out for each individual investment by calculating the re coverable amount of the cash-generating unit based on the value in use. Cash flow projections used in these cal -

culations are based on the business plans approved by the management for the period until and including 2025. The discount rate used is based on market rates adjusted to reflect company-specific risks. The recoverable amount of each cash-generating unit so calculated was compared to its carrying amount.

Main assumptions for cash flow projections with calculations of value in use Discounted cash flow projections are based on the Group companies' business plans covering a 5-year period (stra tegic business plans for individual companies for the peri od 2021–2025).

Growth in premiums earned by insurance companies re flects the growth expected in their insurance markets, as well as the characteristics of their portfolios (a small pro portion of non-motor business). In all their markets, in surance penetration is relatively low. However, insurance penetration is expected to increase due to the expected convergence of their countries' macroeconomic indica tors towards EU levels. Social inflation is also expected to rise, i.e. claims made against insurance companies are expected to become more frequent and higher. Costs are expected to lag slightly behind premiums owing to expected business process optimisation in subsidiaries. Business process optimisation will thus contribute to the growth in net profits.

Growth in pension companies' revenue is due to in creased contributions to pension funds as a result of demographic trends, at relatively fixed operating costs, which may lead to greater profitability.

The discount rate is determined as the cost of equity (COE), using the capital asset pricing model (CAPM). It is based on the risk-free interest rate and equity premi um, as well as prospects for the relevant business. Added is a country risk premium and a size premium.

Assessments as to whether there is any indication of im pairment of investments in subsidiaries are made using the same model as for goodwill. For more information on the assumptions, see section 17.4.7 "Goodwill" of the financial statements with notes.

17.4.14 Financial investments and assets held for the benefit of policyholders who bear the investment risk

17.4.14.1 Classification

Financial assets are classified into the following catego ries:

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Financial assets held for trading comprise instruments that have been acquired exclusively for the purpose of trading, i.e. realising gains in the short term. Financial assets designated as at fair value through profit or loss comprise subordinated financial assets, primarily because they provide the issuer with the option of early redemp tion, and assets held for the benefit of policyholders who bear the investment risk.

Financial statements of the Re with notes

15 Auditor'sreport

Held-to-maturity financial assets

Held-to-maturity financial assets are assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the Group companies have the intention and ability to hold to maturity. These are non-derivative financial assets not quoted in an active market.

Loans and receivables (deposits)

This category includes loans and bank deposits with fixed or determinable payments that are not traded in any ac tive market, and deposits with cedants. Under some re insurance contracts, part of the reinsurance premiums is retained by cedants as guarantee for payment of future claims, and generally released after one year. These de posits bear contractually agreed interest.

Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are assets that are in tended to be held for an indefinite period and are not classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss or as held to maturity financial assets.

17.4.14.2 Recognition, measurement and derecognition

Available-for-sale financial assets, held-to-maturity financial assets, and loans and receivables are initially measured at fair value plus any transaction costs. Finan cial assets at fair value through profit or loss are initially measured at fair value, with any transaction costs recog nised as investment expenses.

Acquisitions and disposals of securities, loans and depos its are recognised on the trade date.

Gains and losses arising from fair value revaluation of financial assets available for sale are recognised in the statement of other comprehensive income, and trans ferred to the income statement upon disposal or impair ment. Gains and losses arising from fair value revaluation of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognised directly in the income statement.

Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial assets expire or when the assets are transferred and the transfer qualifies for derecognition in accordance with IAS 39.

Loans and receivables (deposits) and held-to-maturity financial assets are measured at amortised cost.

17.4.14.3 Determination of fair values

All financial instruments are measured at fair value, ex cept for deposits, shares not quoted in any regulated market that constitute the non-material portion of the investment portfolio, loans (assuming that their carry ing amount is a reasonable approximation of fair value) and financial instruments held to maturity, which are measured at amortised cost. The fair value of investment property, and land and buildings used in business oper ations and the fair value of financial instruments meas ured at amortised cost are set out in note 29. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either (i) in the principal market for the asset or liability, or (ii) in the absence of a principal market, in

the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible to the Group. The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest. A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant's ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its high est and best use or by selling it to another market partic ipant that would use the asset in its highest and best use. Valuation techniques are used that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant ob servable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.

On the valuation date, the fair value of a financial invest ment is established by determining the price in the prin cipal market based on:

  • for stock exchanges: the quoted closing price on the stock exchange on the measurement date or on the last day of operation of the exchange on which the investment is quoted;
  • for the OTC market: the quoted CBBT closing bid price or, if unavailable, the Bloomberg BVAL bid price, where the price must not be older than 15 days.
  • the price is calculated based on an internal valuation model or yield curve valuation.

Financial statements of the Re with notes

15 Auditor'sreport

For the valuation the Company uses the closing price on the stock exchange or the published CBBT bid price for debt investments (according to the defined Bloomberg methodology) as the unadjusted quoted price, while the BVAL bid price calculated on the basis of the internal valuation model or the yield curve valuation do not repre sent unadjusted quoted prices.

The BVAL bid price (based on the defined Bloomberg methodology) represents a price that is not quoted but calculated based on directly and indirectly observable market inputs. When calculating the price using a valua tion model, the company shall first use the directly and indirectly observable market inputs. If these are not avail able, the company shall determine the price of a financial investment using a model with unobservable inputs, as defined from IFRS 13.86 to IFRS 13.90.

The BVAL score is the basis for assessing the quality of the BVAL price, with a higher score indicating a better price quality in the market.

Assets and liabilities measured or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements are measured and presented in accordance with the IFRS 13 fair-value hierarchy that categorises the inputs of valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels.

Assets and liabilities are classified in accordance with IFRS 13 based primarily on the availability of market in formation, which is determined by the relative levels of trading identical or similar instruments in the market, with a focus on information that represents actual market activity or binding quotations of brokers or dealers.

Investments measured or disclosed at fair value are present ed in accordance with the levels of fair value under IFRS 13, which categorises the inputs used to measure fair value into the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy: • Level 1: financial investments for which fair value is determined based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical financial assets that the Company can access at the measurement date. This level includes the prices of debt assets with CBBT prices and those BVAL prices that have a calculated BVAL score of 8 or higher, with 10 or more direct

• Level 2: financial investments whose fair value is de termined using inputs that are directly or indirectly observable, other than the quoted prices included within Level 1. Unobservable market inputs have no significant impact on the valuation. Pursuant to IFRS

  • observations.
  • 13.82, level 2 inputs may include:
  • markets that are not active,
  • for financial investments,
  • market-corroborated inputs.
  • quoted prices for similar financial investments in

  • quoted prices for identical or similar financial in vestments in markets that are not active,

  • inputs other than quoted prices that are observable

This level thus includes BVAL prices of debt invest ments with a calculated BVAL score of 8 or higher but with 9 or fewer direct observations and BVAL prices with a calculated BVAL score of 7 or lower. • Level 3: financial investments for which observable market inputs are not available. Fair value is thus deter -

mined based on valuation techniques using inputs that are not directly or indirectly observable in the market.

This level includes BVAL prices of debt investments with a BVAL score of 5 or lower. Unobservable market inputs may have a significant impact on the valuation.

The company classifies as level-3 investments its invest ments in alternative funds, such as real-estate funds, infrastructure funds, private debt funds, private equity funds and similar. There are no market prices available for such investments; therefore, valuation based on available market data is not possible.

In accordance with IFRS 13.97, the Company also clas sifies within the fair value hierarchy all financial invest ments that are not measured at fair value in the state ment of financial position but for which the Company discloses fair value (loans granted, deposits, deposits with cedants) and for which the Company assumes that their carrying amount is a reasonable approximation of fair val ue (in accordance with IFRS 7.29).

The policy of determining when transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are deemed to have occurred is disclosed and fully complied with. Policy on the timing of recognising transfers is the same for transfers into the levels as that for transfers out of the levels. Examples of policies include: (a) the date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer; (b) the beginning of the reporting period; (c) the end of the reporting pe riod. The Company reviews quarterly the categorisation of investments into the three levels of the fair value hi erarchy. To this end, it applies the rules for determining the fair value set out under note 29. If the categorisation conditions change, financial investments are reclassified into the relevant level.

17.4.14.4 Impairment losses on investments

A financial asset other than at fair value through profit or loss is impaired and an impairment loss incurred only if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset and if such events have an impact on future cash flows that can be reliably estimated. An assessment is made quarterly as to whether there is any objective evi dence that a financial asset is impaired (when preparing interim and annual reports).

17.4.14.4.1 Debt securities

Investments in debt securities (other than investments in debt securities at fair value through profit or loss) are impaired when any of the following conditions are met:

  • the issuer fails to make a coupon or principal payment, and/or it is likely that such liabilities will not be settled in full in accordance with the assessment of circum stances on the reporting date;
  • the issuer is subject to a bankruptcy, liquidation or compulsory settlement procedure.

If the first condition above is met, an impairment loss is recognised in the income statement in the amount of the difference between market value and cost of the debt security and the cost of such debt security.

If the second condition above is met, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss as the difference between the potential payment out of the bankruptcy or liquida tion estate and the cost of the investment. The potential payment out of the bankruptcy or liquidation estate is es timated based on information concerning the bankrupt cy, liquidation or compulsory settlement proceedings, or, if such information is not available, based on experience or estimates made by a credit rating or other financial institution.

In respect of debt securities, only impairment losses rec ognised pursuant to indent one above (first condition) may be reversed. An impairment loss is reversed when the issuer's liability is settled. Impairment losses are re versed through profit or loss.

17.4.14.4.2 Equity securities

Quoted shares and mutual fund investments

Equity investments (other than equity investments at fair value through profit or loss) are impaired when any of the following conditions is met:

  • their market price is more than 40% below cost; -
  • the market price of any share is below its cost contin uously for 1 year or continuously 3 years in the case of mutual funds;
  • that the asset needs to be impaired.

• the model based on which the Group assesses the need for impairment of unquoted securities indicates

Unquoted shares

Unquoted portfolio shares include shares not quoted in any regulated securities market and shares for which the Group can demonstrate that they do not have an active market and that the company carries at cost with regular impairment testing.

The cost model is used if an investment is considered non-material, either in relation to the issuer (share of equity) or in relation to the portfolio of the holder (share of the investment portfolio).

At the reporting date, it must be determined whether the purchase price paid for a share still represents its fair val ue (unless the relevant investment is considered non-ma terial). If the established fair value of an unquoted securi ty is less than its cost, an impairment loss is recognised. A company may use a valuation made by a business apprais er in order to verify the model and test for impairment.

An impairment loss is recognised in the amount of the difference between market price and cost of financial assets.

15 Auditor'sreport

17.4.14.4.3 Investments in unlisted alternative funds Alternative funds during the investment phase typically experience a J-curve effect. During this phase the fund incurs high management expenses and expenses related to the acquisition of investments, which may result in the fund value falling below the value of contributions. By adding investments, the size of the fund increases, while the proportion of expenses relative to the fund's total value decreases. The value of the fund gradually rises towards the value of contributions and then moves depending on the profitability of investments. As long as the alternative fund is in the investment phase and shows a drop in its fair value due to the described J curve effect, the fund is valued through the fair value reserve. As soon as the alternative fund is past the investment phase, the need for impairment is assessed as indicated in the fol lowing paragraph.

Investments in alternative funds beyond the investment phase are impaired when, as at the statement of financial position date:

  • the value of the investment in an alternative fund is more than 40% below cost or if
  • the market value of the investment in an individual alternative fund is below cost continuously for 5 years.

An impairment loss, being the difference between the fund value quoted by the manager of the alternative fund and the cost of the investment in the alternative fund, is recognised in profit or loss.

17.4.15 Reinsurers' share of technical provisions

The amount of the reinsurers' share of technical provi sions represents the proportion of gross technical provi sions and unearned premiums for transactions that the Group cedes to reinsurers and co-insurers outside the Sava Insurance Group. The amount is determined at the close of each accounting period in accordance with the provisions of co-insurance and reinsurance (retrocession) contracts and in line with movements in the portfolio, based on gross technical provisions for the business that is the subject of these contracts.

Assets are tested for impairment on the reporting date. Assets ceded to individual partners are tested individually. The impact of the reinsurance programme on risk is de scribed in section 17.6.3.1 "Non-life underwriting risk".

17.4.16 Investment contract assets and liabilities

Contracts of homogeneous groups are classified as in vestment contracts if they bear significant financial risk and are accounted for in accordance with IAS 39. In vestment contract assets and liabilities only include the investment contract assets and liabilities of the company Sava Pokojninska, which manages pension funds. Invest ment contract assets comprise the assets supporting the liability funds "Moji Skladi Življenjskega Cikla" for the transaction of voluntary supplementary pension business that are measured in accordance with IFRS 9. On ini tial recognition, investment contract assets are classified

as either assets at fair value through profit or loss or as held-to-maturity assets. For consolidation purposes, the amounts of assets and liabilities arising from investment contracts are adjusted in accordance with the guidance for financial investments set out in section 17.4.14 "Fi nancial investments and assets held for the benefit of policyholders who bear the investment risk". Classifica tion and valuation of assets is presented in detail in note 10. Investment contract liabilities are liabilities arising out of pension insurance business under group and individu al plans for voluntary supplementary pension insurance, for which the administrator maintains personal accounts for pension plan members. To support these liabilities, Sava Pokojninska sets aside long-term business provisions comprising liabilities for assets on policyholders' personal accounts (net contributions and return) and additional liabilities to cover the difference between the actual and guaranteed rate of return. Investment contract liabilities are presented in note 10.

Sava Pokojninska initially recognises investment proper ty assets in respect of pension fund business under in vestment contract assets using the cost model, plus any transaction costs. The following measurements are made using the fair value model due to regulatory requirements and the fact that these are pension fund assets. Apprais als are carried out at least once every three years by certified real estate appraisers licensed by the Slovenian Institute of Auditors. The amounts of investment proper ty in investment contract assets are not adjusted for con solidation purposes.

17.4.17 Receivables

Receivables consist mainly of premium receivables due from policyholders or insurers as well as receivables for claims and commissions due from reinsurers.

17.4.17.1 Recognition of receivables

Receivables are initially recognised based on policies is sued, invoices or other authentic documents (e.g. con firmed reinsurance or co-insurance accounts). In finan cial statements, receivables are reported in net amounts, i.e. net of any allowances made.

Receivables arising out of reinsurance business are recog nised when inwards premiums or claims and commissions relating to retrocession business are invoiced to cedants or reinsurers, respectively. For existing reinsurance con tracts for which no confirmed invoices have been re ceived from cedants or reinsurers, receivables are recog nised in line with policies outlined in sections 17.4.31 "Net premiums earned" and 17.4.32 "Net claims incurred". Receivables of the parent company arising out of reinsur ance contracts have not been specifically secured.

Recourse receivables are recognised as assets provided that, on the basis of a recourse claim, an appropriate legal basis exists (a final order of attachment, a written agree ment with or payments by the policyholder or debtor, or subrogation for credit risk insurance). In case of sub rogation, recourse receivables are recognised only after the debtor's existence has been verified and the debtor is contactable. Recognition of principal amounts to which recourse receivables relate decreases claims paid. Group companies recognise impairment losses on recourse re -

ceivables based on past experience. Recourse receivables are tested for impairment on a case-by-case basis.

The Group companies have pledged no receivables as security.

17.4.17.2 Impairment of receivables Receivables are classified into groups with similar credit risk in order to be assessed in terms of recoverability or impairment. All material items of receivables are subject to this assessment.

An allowance is created for receivables expected not to be collectible in full or in part. Such receivables are rec ognised as doubtful. If the Company recognises receiva bles from and liabilities to the same entity, receivables are subject to impairment even if older than one year.

In case of litigation, such receivables are recognised as disputable; allowances are established for such receiva bles and charged against operating expenses from revalu ation.

In addition to age, the method of accounting for allow ances takes into account the phase of the collection pro cedure, historical data on the percentage of write-offs made and the ratio of recoverability. Assumptions are reviewed at least annually.

17.4.17.3 Receivables write-offs Write-offs of receivables require appropriate supporting documents, such as a court decision, bankruptcy order or other document evidencing that the company has lost its legal title, or in cases where it is evident that collection is not meaningful due to excessive costs of the proceedings.

17.4.18 Deferred acquisition costs

Acquisition costs that are deferred include that part of operating expenses directly associated with policy under writing.

Deferred acquisition costs consist primarily of deferred commissions. These are invoiced commissions relating to the next financial year and are recognised based on (re)insurance accounts and estimated amounts obtained based on estimated commissions taking into account straight-line amortisation.

17.4.19 Other assets

Other assets consist of capitalised short-term accruals and deferrals, namely short-term deferred costs.

17.4.20 Cash and cash equivalents

The statement of financial position and cash flow item "cash and cash equivalents" comprises:

  • cash, including cash in hand, cash in bank accounts of commercial banks and other financial institutions, and overnight deposits, and
  • cash equivalents, including demand deposits and de posits with an original maturity of up to three months.

17.4.22 Shareholders' equity

Composition:

  • share capital comprises the par value of paid-up ordi nary shares, expressed in euros;
  • capital reserves comprise amounts paid up in excess of the par value of shares;
  • profit reserves comprise reserves provided for by the articles of association, legal reserves, reserves for own shares, catastrophe equalisation reserves and other profit reserves;
  • own shares;
  • fair value reserve;
  • retained earnings;
  • net profit or loss for the year;
  • translation reserve;
  • non-controlling interest.

Own shares were acquired in line with a share repurchase programme posted on the Company's website Sava Re shares (sava-re.si).).

Reserves provided for by the articles of association are used:

  • to cover the net loss that cannot be covered (in full) out of retained earnings and other profit reserves, or if these two sources of funds are insufficient to cover the net loss in full (an instrument of additional protec tion of tied-up capital);
  • to increase share capital;
  • to regulate the dividend policy.

Profit reserves also include catastrophe equalisation re serves set aside pursuant to the rules on technical provi sions and capital reserves as approved by appointed ac -

tuaries. These are tied-up reserves and their distribution cannot be decided in the general meeting.

Pursuant to the Companies Act, the Company's man agement board has the power to allocate up to half of the net profit to other reserves.

17.4.23 Subordinated liabilities

Subordinated liabilities represent a long-term liability of the Group in the form of a subordinated bond to be used for general corporate purposes of the Sava Insurance Group and for the optimisation of its capital structure valued at amortised cost. For more details see disclosure 23.

17.4.24 Classification of insurance contracts

The Group transacts traditional and unit-linked life busi ness, non-life business and reinsurance business, the ba sic purpose of which is the transfer of underwriting risk. Underwriting risk is considered significant, if an insured event results in payments for the Group of at least 5% of the claim payment. Accordingly, the Group classified all such contracts concluded as insurance contracts. Pro portional reinsurance contracts represent a risk that is identical to the underlying insurance policies, which are insurance contracts. Since non-proportional reinsurance contracts provide for the payment of significant addi tional pay-outs in case of loss events, they also qualify as insurance contracts.

17.4.25 Technical provisions

In the statement of financial position technical provisions are shown in gross amounts under liabilities. The share of technical provisions for the business ceded to non-Group reinsurers is shown in the statement of financial position under the asset item reinsurers' share of technical pro visions. Technical provisions must be set at an amount that provides reasonable assurance that liabilities from assumed (re)insurance contracts can be met. The main principles used in calculations are described below.

Unearned premiums are the portions of premiums writ ten pertaining to periods after the accounting period. Unearned premiums are calculated on a pro rata temporis basis at insurance policy level, except for decreasing term contracts (credit life). Since there is generally insufficient data available for accepted reinsurance business at the individual policy level, the fractional value method is used for calculating unearned premiums at the level of individ ual reinsurance accounts for periods for which premiums are written.

15 Auditor'sreport

Mathematical provisions for life insurance contracts represent the actuarial value of obligations arising from policyholders' guaranteed entitlements. In most cases, they are calculated using the net Zillmer method with the same parameters as those used for premium calculation, except for the discount rate applied, which was a techni cal interest rate of at least 1.25%. Other parameters are the same as those used in the premium calculation. Any calculated negative liabilities arising out of mathematical provisions are set to nil. The Zillmer method was used for amortising acquisition costs. The calculation of mathe matical provisions is based on the assumption that the full agent commission was paid upon the conclusion of the contract, while agents actually receive the commission within two to five years, depending on the policy term. The mathematical provision includes all deferred com missions. Deferred policy acquisition expenses are shown under assets, in the event of commission prepayments, or show the difference between the positive Zillmerised mathematical provision and the Zillmerised mathematical provision.

Provisions for outstanding claims (claims provision) are established in the amount of expected liabilities for in curred but not settled claims, including loss adjustment expenses. These comprise provisions both for reported claims, which are calculated based on case estimates, and claims incurred but not reported (IBNR), which are calculated using actuarial methods. Future liabilities are generally not discounted, with the exception of the part relating to annuities under certain liability insurance contracts. In such cases, the related provisions are estab lished based on the expected net present value of future liabilities.

Provisions for incurred but not reported claims are cal culated for the major part of the portfolios of primary insurers using methods based on paid claims triangles; the result is the total claims provision, and the IBNR pro vision is calculated as the difference between the result of the triangle method and the provision based on case reserves. In classes where the volume of business is not large enough for reliable results from the triangle meth ods, the calculation is made based on either (i) the prod uct of the expected number of subsequently reported claims and the average amount of subsequently reported claims or (ii) methods based on expected loss ratios. The consolidated IBNR provision also includes the IBNR pro vision for the proportion of business written outside the Group. For this part of the portfolio, technical categories based on reinsurance accounts are not readily available; therefore, it is necessary to estimate items that are re ceived untimely, including claims provisions, taking into account expected premiums and expected combined ra tios for each underwriting year, class of business and form of reinsurance as well as development triangles for under writing years by accounting quarters; the IBNR provision is then established at the amount of the claims provision thus estimated.

The provision for outstanding claims is thus established based on statistical data and using actuarial methods; therefore, its calculation also constitutes a liability ade quacy test.

The provision for bonuses, rebates and cancellations is intended for agreed and expected pay-outs due to good results of insurance contracts and expected payment due to cancellations in excess of unearned premiums.

Other technical provisions include the provision for un expired risks derived from a liability adequacy test for unearned premiums, as described below.

Unearned premiums are deferred premiums based on coverage periods. If based on such a calculation the pre mium is deemed to be inadequate, the unearned premi um is also inadequate. Group companies carry out liabil ity adequacy tests for unearned premiums at the level of homogeneous groups appropriate to portfolios. The calculation of the expected combined ratio in any ho mogeneous group is based on premiums earned, claims incurred, commission expenses and other operating ex penses. Where the expected combined ratio exceeds 100%, thus revealing a deficiency in unearned premiums, a corresponding provision for unexpired risks is set aside within other technical provisions.

17.4.26 Technical provisions for the benefit of life insurance policyholders who bear the investment risk

These are provisions for unit-linked life business. They comprise mathematical provisions, unearned premiums and provisions for outstanding claims. The bulk compris es mathematical provisions. Their value is the aggregate value of all units of funds under all policies, including all premiums not yet converted into units, plus the discre tionary bonuses of guaranteed funds managed by us. The value of funds is based on market value as at the state ment of financial position date.

17.4.27 Liability adequacy test (LAT)

Adequacy testing of provisions set aside based on insur ance contracts is conducted as at the financial statement date, separately for non-life and life business. The liability adequacy test for non-life business is described in section 17.4.25 "Technical provisions".

Liability adequacy testing for life business

The liability adequacy test for life policies is carried out as a minimum at each reporting date against a calculation of future cash flows using explicit and consistent assump tions of all factors – future premiums, mortality, morbid ity, investment returns, lapses, surrenders, guarantees, policyholder bonuses and expenses. For this purpose, the present value of future cash flows is used.

Discounting is based on the yield curve for euro area sovereign bonds at the statement of financial position date; but for EU Member States either the risk-free yield curve of government bonds at the statement of financial position date is used, including a loading for the invest ment mix, or a yield curve based on the investment mix and in case of reinvestments the Solvency II risk-free rate is used. Where reliable market data is available, as sumptions (such as the discount rate and investment return) are derived from observable market prices. As sumptions that cannot be reliably derived from market values are based on current estimates calculated by ref erence to the Group's own internal models (lapse rates, actual mortality and morbidity) and publicly available resources (demographic information published by the local statistical bureau). For mortality, higher rates are anticipated than are realised due to uncertainty.

Input assumptions are updated annually based on recent experience. Correlations between risk factors are not taken into account. The principal assumptions used are described below.

The liability adequacy test is performed on the policy and/or product level. If the test is performed at the poli cy level, the results are shown at the product-level, with products grouped by class of business. A company gen erally evaluates the test results separately for tradition al policies other than annuities, unit-linked policies and annuities. If insurance liabilities, including related assets, cannot be evaluated separately as part of traditional or unit-linked policies, the company may evaluate the test results together. The adequacy of liabilities is checked separately for each group of insurance products. In de termining any additional liabilities to be established the liability inadequacies of individual groups are not offset against surpluses arising on other groups. The net present value of future cash flows calculated using the assump tions described below is compared with the insurance liabilities, for each group separately. If this comparison shows that the carrying amount of the insurance liabilities is inadequate in the light of the estimated cash flows, the entire deficiency is recognised in profit or loss by estab lishing an additional provision.

Mortality is usually based on data supplied by the local statistical bureau or on the mortality of the portfolio and is amended by the Group based on a statistical investiga tion of its mortality experience. Assumptions for mortali ty and morbidity are adjusted by a margin for risk and are higher than actual.

Future contractual premiums are included and for most business also premium indexation is taken into considera tion. Estimates for lapses and surrenders are made based on experience. Actual persistency rates by product type and duration are regularly investigated, and assumptions updated accordingly. The actual persistency rates are ad justed by a margin for risk and uncertainty.

Estimates for future maintenance expenses included in the liability adequacy test are derived from experience. For future periods, cash flows for expenses have been increased by a factor equal to the estimated annual infla tion.

Yield and the discount rate are based on the same yield curve; a loading for market development is added when discounting.

The liability adequacy test takes into account expected future discretionary bonuses. Expected future discre tionary bonuses are aligned with the bonus methodology. The share of discretionary bonuses complies with internal rules and is treated as a discounted liability.

For most life policies estimates are made of the impact of changes in key variables that may have a material effect on the results of liability adequacy tests at the end of the year. Sensitivity analyses are prepared separately for tra ditional life business and investment-linked life business.

The base run is calculated using the same assumptions as for liability adequacy testing. Changes in variables represent reasonable possible changes which, had they occurred, would have led to significant changes in insurance liabilities at the statement of financial position date. The reasonable possible changes represent neither expected changes in variables nor worst-case scenarios. A change in key variables would affect the corresponding component of the result in the same proportion.

The analysis is prepared for the change in variables, with all other assumptions remaining unchanged, and ignores changes in the values of related assets. Sensitivity was calculated for an unfavourable direction of movement. The income statement and insurance liabilities (as shown in the LAT test) are mostly impacted by changes in the net investment income and operating expenses.

17.4.28 Other provisions

Employee benefits include severance pay upon retirement and jubilee benefits. Provisions for employee benefits are the net present value of the Group's future liabilities proportionate to the years of service in the Group (the projected unit credit method). Pursuant to IAS 19 "Employee benefits" actuarial gains and losses arising on re-measurement of net liabilities for severance pay upon retirement are recognised in other comprehensive income.

These provisions are calculated based on personal data of employees: date of birth, date of commencement of employment in the Group, anticipated retirement, and salary. For each Group company, the amounts of severance pay upon retirement and jubilee benefits are in accordance with local legislations, employment contracts and other applicable regulations. Expected pay-outs also include tax liabilities where payments exceed statutory non-taxable amounts.

The probability of an employee staying with the Group includes both the probability of death and the probability of termination of employment relationship. Assumptions relating to future increases in salaries, severance pay upon retirement and jubilee benefits, as well as those relating to employee turnover depend on developments in individual markets and individual Group companies. The same term structure of risk-free interest rates is used for discounting as that in the capital adequacy calculation under Solvency II.

17.4.29 Other financial liabilities

Other financial liabilities mainly include dividend payment obligations relating to previous years.

17.4.30 Liabilities from operating activities, lease liabilities and other liabilities

Liabilities are initially recognised at amounts recorded in the relevant documents. Subsequently, they are increased or decreased in line with documents, and reduced through payments. Liabilities from operating activities comprise liabilities for claims, for premiums from ceded retrocession business, for claims from accepted reinsurance business and for liabilities relating to retained deposits.

Since 1 January 2019 Group companies have been reporting lease liabilities as a separate item. Lease liability is initially recognised at the present value of lease payments that have not been paid on the date of recognition. The applied discount rate consists of the incremental borrowing rate and takes into account the company's credit rating and lease term, and country risk for the Group. Lease liability is measured at the commencement date by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability and reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made. If the lease changes after the initial measurement, the carrying amount is remeasured to reflect any modifications or reassessments using a revised discount rate.

Other liabilities include amounts due to employees, amounts due to clients, deferred reinsurance commissions, current income tax liabilities and other short-term liabilities (accrued expenses).

17.4.31 Net premiums earned

Group companies use the accrual basis method of accounting for insurance premiums earned. The following are disclosed separately: gross (re)insurance premiums, co-insurance and retrocession premiums, and unearned premiums. These items are used to calculate net premiums written in the income statement. Premiums earned are recognised based on confirmed (re)insurance accounts or (re)insurance contracts.

222 Financial statements of the Sava Insurance Groupand Sava 15 Auditor'sreport 18 Significant events after the reporting date 16 Financial statements CONTENTS 17 Notes to the financial

Estimates are made on the basis of amounts in reinsurance contracts, which, according to contractual due dates, have already accrued, although the Group has yet to receive reinsurance accounts. Net premiums earned are calculated based on invoiced gross reinsurance premiums less invoiced premiums retroceded, both adjusted for the movement in gross unearned premiums and the change in reinsurers' share of unearned premiums. Premiums earned are estimated based on individual reinsurance contracts.

The companies monitor premiums earned by insurance group and insurance class.

17.4.32 Net claims incurred

Claims and benefits incurred are accounted for on an accrual basis. Net claims incurred comprise gross claims payments, net of recourse receivables and reinsured claims, i.e. amounts invoiced to retrocessionaires. The amount of gross claims paid includes the change in the claims provision, taking into account estimated claims and provisions for outstanding claims. Estimates are made on the basis of amounts in reinsurance contracts, which, according to contractual due dates, have already accrued, although corresponding reinsurance accounts have not been received. Claims incurred are estimated based on estimated premiums and combined ratios for individual reinsurance contracts. These items are used to calculate net claims incurred in the income statement.

17.4.33 Investment income and expenses

Investment income and expenses are recorded separate ly by source of funds, i.e. in three separate registers: the non-life insurance investment register, the life insurance investment register and own funds investment register. Own fund investments support the Group's shareholders' funds, non-life insurance investments support technical provisions, and life insurance investments support mathe matical provisions.

Investment income includes:

  • dividend income (income from shares);
  • interest income;
  • net exchange gains;
  • income from changes in fair value and gains on dis posal of investments designated at fair value through profit or loss;
  • gains on disposal of investments of other investment categories, and
  • other income.

Investment expenses include:

  • interest expense;
  • net exchange losses;
  • expenses due to changes in fair value and losses on dis posal of investments designated at fair value through profit or loss;
  • losses on disposal of investments of other investment categories, and
  • other expenses.

These income and expenses are disclosed depending on whether the underlying investments are classified as in vestments held to maturity, at fair value through profit or loss, available for sale, loans and receivables, or deposits.

Interest income and expenses for investments classified as held to maturity or available for sale are recognised in the income statement using the effective interest rate method. Interest income and expenses for investments at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in the in come statement using the coupon interest rate. Dividend income is recognised in the income statement when pay out is authorised. Gains and losses on the disposal of in vestments represent the difference between the carrying amount of a financial asset and its sale price, or between its cost less impairment, if any, and the sale price in the case of investments available for sale.

Other technical income of the Group comprises income from commissions (reinsurance commissions less the change in deferred acquisition costs relating to reinsur ers) and is recognised based on confirmed reinsurance accounts and estimated commission income taking into account straight-line amortisation. These include other technical income such as income on the realisation of impaired receivables, revenue from other insurance busi ness (green card sales, claims handling as accommodation business), exchange gains and revenue from other ser vices. This income is recognised in the income statement when services are completed or invoices issued.

Other technical expenses of the Group comprise expens es for loss prevention activities and fire brigade charges, the contribution for covering claims of uninsured and unidentified vehicles and vessels, regulator fees, foreign exchange losses, operating expenses from revaluation and other expenses.

Other income comprises income from investment prop erty, income arising from property, plant and equipment assets, other income not directly attributable to insur ance business, and revenue from sales for non-insurance companies (including asset management revenue, such as revenue from entry and exit charges, and management fees) relating to revenue from contracts with custom ers recognised when control of the goods or services is transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration that is estimated to be an adequate for the sold goods or services. Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised at the fair value of the consid eration received or receivable, less any returns, bonuses, rebates and volume discounts. Revenue is recognised when the customer has taken control of the goods or has received the benefits from the services rendered. For sale of goods and services, revenue is recognised when goods are delivered to the customer, or the services are rendered and collectability of the related receivables is reasonably certain. Sales revenue does not include any charges paid upon purchase or sale, in line with IFRS 15. This revenue is included in the income statement under "other income" and is presented in the pensions or "oth er" segments. This revenue is not multi-year in nature, is recognised on an accrual basis in the financial year and presented under note 33.

Other expenses, which are made up of non-technical items, consist of allowances for other receivables, direct operating expenses arising from investment property, impairment losses on intangible fixed assets and other ex traordinary expenses. Other expenses are recognised in the income statement when the service is rendered.

17.4.36 Income tax expense

Income tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Current income tax is presented in the in come statement, except for the portion relating to the items presented in shareholders' equity; deferred tax is also presented in shareholders' equity. Current tax is payable on the taxable profit for the year using the tax rates enacted by the date of the statement of financial position, as well as on any adjustments to tax liabilities of prior periods. Deferred tax is recognised using the statement of financial position method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The deferred tax amount is based on the expected manner of recov ery or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using the tax rates effective on the date of the statement of financial position. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that fu ture taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

The Group income tax expense has been determined in accordance with the requirements of each member's lo cal legislation.

17.4.37 Information on operating segments

Operating segments as disclosed and monitored were determined based on the different activities carried out in the Group. Segments were formed through the aggre gation of operations of companies that generate revenue and expenses, including revenue and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, based on similar services provided by companies (features of insurance products, market networks, and the circumstance in which compa nies operate).

The operating segments are reinsurance (reinsurance business), non-life (non-life insurance business), life (life insurance business, broken down into Slovenia and in ternational), pensions and asset management (pension insurance business in Slovenia and North Macedonia, and fund management) and the "other" segment (assistance services associated with motor, home owners and health insurance business). Section 8.1 explains in more detail how the companies are included in operating segments.

Performance of these segments is monitored based on different indicators, with net profit calculated in accord ance with IFRSs a common performance indicator for all segments. The management board monitors performance by segment to the level of underwriting results, net in vestment income and other aggregated performance indicators, as well as the amounts of assets, equity and technical provisions on a quarterly basis.

17.5 Standards and interpretations issued but not yet effective, and new standards and interpretations

The accounting policies adopted by the Group companies in preparing their financial statements are consistent with those of the previous financial year, except for the following new or amended IFRSs adopted for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2021.

Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) but not yet effective

The following new standards and amendments to standards are effective for annual periods beginning on 1 January 2021 or later, and earlier application is permitted. The Group and the Company have not early adopted any of the new or amended standards and do not expect them to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group and the separate financial statements of the Company when they become effective:

  • Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current (amendments to IAS 1);
  • Property, Plant and Equipment: Proceeds before Intended Use (amendments to IAS 16);
  • reference to the conceptual framework (Amendments to IFRS 3);
  • Onerous contracts: Cost of fulfilling a contract (amendments to IAS 37);
  • Disclosure of Accounting Policies (amendments to IAS 1);

• Definition of Accounting Estimates (amendments to

• Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction (amendments to IAS 12); • Covid-19-Related Rent Concessions beyond 30 June

- IAS 8);

  • 2021 (amendment to IFRS 16);
  • Annual improvements 2018–2020.

Amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current

The amendments are effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023. Early application is permitted.

232 Sava Insurance Groupand Sava reporting date 16 Financial statements CONTENTS

The amendments clarify that the classification of liabilities as current or non-current shall be based solely on the entity's right to defer settlement at the end of the reporting period. The company's right to defer settlement for at least 12 months from the reporting date need not be unconditional but must have substance. The classification is not affected by management's intentions or expectations about whether and when the entity will exercise its right. The amendments also clarify the situations that are considered settlement of a liability.

The Group and the Company expect that the amendments, on the date when initially applied, will have no material impact on their financial statements.

Amendment to IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment – Proceeds before Intended Use

The amendments are effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022. Early application is permitted.

The amendments to IAS 16 require that the proceeds from selling items produced while bringing an item of property, plant and equipment to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended must be recognised, together with the cost of those items, in profit or loss and that the entity must measure the cost of those items applying the measurement requirements of IAS 2.

The amendments must be applied retrospectively, but only to items of property, plant and equipment that are brought to the location and condition necessary for them to be capable of operating in the manner intended on or after the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements in which the entity first applies the amendments. The cumulative effect of initially applying the amendments will be recognised as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other component of equity, as appropriate) at the beginning of that earliest period presented (if necessary).

The Group and the Company expect that the amendments, on the date when initially applied, will have no material impact on their financial statements because they have no such assets.

Amendment to IAS 37 Onerous Contracts – costs of disputing a contract

The amendments specify which costs are to be includ ed in determining the cost of fulfilling a contract for the purposes of assessing whether the contract is onerous. The amendments apply for annual reporting periods be ginning on or after 1 January 2022 to contracts existing at the date when the amendments are first applied. At the date of initial application, the cumulative effect of applying the amendments is recognised as an opening balance adjustment to retained earnings or other compo nents of equity, as appropriate. To the best of the Group's and the Company's knowledge, no such contracts were in force at 31 December 2021.

IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements – Definition of Materiality

In October 2018, the IASB amended its definition of materiality, and it is consistent in all IFRS standards and the core framework. The IASB recently issued amend ments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements and amendments to IFRS Guidance, which will become ef fective on 1 January 2023. In practice, it is a judgement of materiality that would assist the Company in provid ing useful disclosures about accounting policies. The key amendments to IAS 1 include:

  • requiring companies to disclose their material ac counting policies rather than their significant account ing policies;
  • clarifying that accounting policies related to immate rial transactions, other events or conditions are them selves immaterial and as such need not be disclosed; and

• clarifying that not all accounting policies that relate to material transactions, other events or conditions are themselves material to a company's financial state -

ments.

The Group and the Company expect that the amend ments, on the date when initially applied, will have no impact on their financial statements but will affect the scope of annual report disclosures.

IAS 8 Accounting Policies – Accounting Estimates

The Board has issued amendments to IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors to clarify how companies should distinguish changes in ac counting policies from changes in accounting estimates, with a primary focus on the definition of and clarifica tions on accounting estimates. The amendments are ef fective from 1 January 2023. The amendments introduce a new definition for accounting estimates: clarifying that they are monetary amounts in the financial statements that are subject to measurement uncertainty. Developing an accounting estimate includes both:

• selecting a measurement technique (estimation or

• choosing the inputs to be used when applying the cho -

  • valuation technique);
  • sen measurement technique.

The effects of changes in such inputs or measurement techniques are changes in accounting estimates. The definition of accounting policies remains unchanged.

The Group and the Company expects that the amend ments, on the date when initially applied, will have no material impact on their financial statements.

Amendments to IAS 12 – Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction

The amendments narrow the scope of the initial recog nition exemption to exclude transactions that give rise to equal and offsetting temporary differences, e.g. leases. The amendments are effective for annual reporting peri ods beginning on or after 1 January 2023. For leases, the associated deferred tax asset and liabilities will need to be recognised from the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented, with any cumulative effect recognised as an adjustment to retained earnings or other compo nents of equity at that date. For all other transactions, the amendments apply to transactions that occur after the beginning of the earliest period presented.

Under the amendments, the Group will recognise a sep arate deferred tax asset and a deferred tax liability. The adoption of these amendments will not affect retained earnings.

Amendment to IFRS 16 – Covid-19-Related Rent Concessions beyond 30 June 2021

The amendments apply for the period from 1 June 2020 or later (the amendments were extended to 1 April 2021). Earlier application is permitted, including in finan cial statements not authorised for issue at 28 May 2020. The amendments introduce an optional practical expedi ent that simplifies how a lessee accounts for rent conces sions that are a direct consequence of Covid-19. A lessee that applies the practical expedient is not required to assess whether eligible rent concessions are lease modifi cations, and accounts for them in accordance with other applicable guidance. The resulting accounting will depend on the details of the rent concession. For example, if the

concession is in the form of a one-off reduction in rent, it will be accounted for as a variable lease payment and be recognised in profit or loss. The practical expedient will only apply if:

  • the revised consideration is substantially the same or less than the original consideration;
  • the reduction in lease payments relates to payments due on or before 30 June 2021; and
  • no other substantive changes have been made to the terms of the lease.

The Board has extended the practical expedient by 12 months – i.e. permitting lessees to apply it to rent con cessions for which any reduction in lease payments af fects only payments originally due on or before 30 June 2022.

This practical expedient is not available for lessors.

A lessee applies the amendments retrospectively and recognises the cumulative effect of initially applying them in the opening retained earnings of the reporting period in which they are first applied.

The Group and the Company have reviewed their leases but will not apply any concessions because the terms of the leases do not include any provision on force majeure. The impact is shown in note 3.

IFRS 17 "Insurance Contracts"

On 25 June 2020, the International Accounting Stand ards Board (Board) issued the final accounting standard for insurance contracts IFRS 17. During the finalisation of IFRS 17, the effective date was postponed for two years, from 1 January 2021 to 1 January 2023. The Board further decided to align the effective date for IFRS 9 with IFRS 17 for insurance companies. Due to the post ponement of the effective date for IFRS 17, the start of the comparative period was also postponed for two years, from 1 January 2020 to 1 January 2022. IFRS 4, which is currently still effective, must be applied un til IFRS 17 becomes effective. IFRS 4 allows the use of local accounting practices for insurance contracts in the consolidated balance sheet. With IFRS 17, the Board has introduced common accounting guidelines for insurance contracts for the first time. The Group and the Compa ny will apply IFRS 4 for reporting for the 2022 financial year. For the purpose of preparing comparative periods for 2022, the Group and the Company will apply IFRS 17. Data for comparative periods for 2022 will be pub lished in the financial year 2023.

IFRS 17 determines three models for measuring insur ance contracts:

• Insurance contracts are generally measured using the general measurement model (GMM), which is based on the prospective method. It is based on estimates of expected cash flows at fulfilment using current, explic it, unbiased assumptions that reflect the entity's point of view. Estimates of expected cash flows are adjusted for the time value of money and financial risks (dis counting) and for non-financial risks (risk adjustment). On initial recognition of insurance contracts, either a deferred gain (contractual service margin, CSM) is recognised systematically over the period of the con tract or a loss component is recognised immediately in the income statement. The general measurement model includes a number of exceptions and specific provisions relating to groups of investment contracts,

including discretionary participation features and rein surance contracts held by the entity.

  • The standard introduces two other measurement models, which are presented below.
    • For insurance contracts with a duration of cover of one year or less and for contracts with low cashflow variability at maturity, a simpler measurement model – the premium allocation approach (PAA) – can be applied. This simplified approach is similar to the method of calculating unearned premiums currently used to measure property and accident insurance over the duration of the cover. Under the previous approach, a provision was made for un expired risks in the event of a loss, whereas under IFRS 17, the loss component is determined using a modified general measurement model.
    • For direct participation contracts, such as life in surance, unit-linked and index-linked policies, and certain with-profits contracts, IFRS 17 specifies a mandatory measurement model – the variable fee approach (VFA). The approach is aligned with the general measurement model, with a significant dif ference in the calculation of the contractual service margin, as this approach takes into account the en tity's participation in the change in fair value of the underlying items.

The level of aggregation of insurance contracts (units of ac count) will be determined in accordance with the standard:

  • Portfolios consisting of contracts exposed to similar risks and managed together
  • Groups of contracts: on initial recognition of con tracts, the contracts in each contract portfolio are classified into groups of contracts according to:
    • policy year (annual cohorts)
    • profitability, specifically:
    • ∙ onerous contracts,
    • ∙ contracts with no significant possibility of be coming onerous subsequently, and
    • ∙ other contracts.

The most significant changes to the measurement of in surance contract liabilities will be:

  • the use of current, explicit, unbiased assumptions that reflect the entity's point of view to measure insurance contract liabilities,
  • taking into account the time value of money (dis counting),
  • introducing a non-financial risk adjustment to explic itly capture uncertainty in cash flows on the perfor mance of insurance contracts,
  • introduction of contractual service margins (CSM) for unearned future profit of a group of insurance companies, which are allocated over the duration of the contract,
  • separate measurement of insurance contracts and re insurance contracts held by the entity,
  • elimination of investment components from income and expenses,
  • separate presentation of the underwriting result with costs directly attributable to insurance contracts,
  • the introduction of the other comprehensive income

option for insurance liabilities, which reduces some vola tility in profit or loss for insurers where financial assets are measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income, in accordance with IFRS 9.

IFRS 17 implements a completely new concept of account ing for insurance contracts, which significantly changes the existing long-standing practices. Especially for longer-term contracts, the standard will have a significant effect on the income statement, and disclosures will be made on the cur rent and expected profitability by type of insurance con tract. Its implementation posed significant challenges for the Group and the Company, as it was necessary to make im portant adjustments to the actuarial models, to redefine the classification of insurance contracts from all the different aspects required by IFRS 17. It also fundamentally changes the way in which financial statements are prepared and the information they provide. Processes are changing signifi cantly, and their refinement and consistent implementation will be key to the timeliness of the financial statements. It was necessary to implement a completely new tool to sup port all the necessary calculations, in line with IFRS 17, to ensure quality input data from existing IT systems and to build an adequate database.

At Group level, a dedicated implementation task force was set up to implement IFRS 17 and has been active since 2018. In 2022, activities will continue to be carried out to complete the project, in particular validating new methodologies and guidelines for the valuation of insur ance contracts, setting up new processes to ensure time ly reporting, performing transition calculations and the impact of the transition, completing all necessary new disclosures, preparing comparable data for 2022, setting up new and adjusted indicators.

Given that the standard introduces the significant chang es described above and that the Group and the Company have not yet completed all IFRS reporting activities, it is not currently possible to quantify the impact on individu al items of the balance sheet and income statement.

Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) but not yet applied by the Group companies

IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments"

The final version of IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments" re flects all phases of the financial instruments project and replaces IAS 39 "Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement" and all previous versions of IFRS 9. The standard introduces new requirements for classification and measurement, impairment, and hedge accounting.

Due to the adoption of the new standard on insurance contracts, IFRS 17, insurance companies may defer the application of IFRS 9 until 1 January 2023. All the Group's insurance companies have taken advantage of the option to postpone application due to the application of IFRS 17 "Insurance Contracts".

17.6 Risk management136

136

The main risk categories that the Group is exposed to are:

  • insurance risks (non-life insurance risks, life insurance risks, health insurance risks),
  • financial risks (market risks, liquidity risks, credit risks, risk of failure to realise guaranteed returns),
  • insolvency risk,
  • operational risk and
  • strategic risk.

The following table shows a summary of risks in 2021.

Below is a review of risks in terms of the potential volatility of business results and the resulting impact on the financial statements of the Group and Sava Re. The potential impact in the case an extreme internal or external risk is realised and the impact of such on the Group's solvency position is set out in the "Sava Insurance Group's solvency and financial condition report" and in the "Sava Re's solvency and financial condition report".

Risk profile of Sava Insurance Group and Sava Re

Risks Risk described
in section
Insolvency risk The Group and the Company ensure an adequate level of excess capital. In accordance with
the Solvency II standard formula, capital adequacy of the Group and the Company remains
within the target capital range as defined in the risk strategy and well above regulatory
requirements.
17.6.2
Underwriting
risks
According to capital requirements, the Group's most important risks include non-life, life, and
health underwriting risks. Risks are adequately managed, but the exposure to non-life and life
insurance underwriting risks is slightly higher relative to the previous year. Sava Re is most
exposed to non-life underwriting risks, which remained at a level comparable to the previous
year.
17.6.3
Financial risks The Group and the Company ensure the appropriate management of financial risks. Exposure
to these risks is actively monitored and managed, and adequate diversification of the
investment portfolio and management of assets and liabilities are ensured. Compared to the
previous year, financial risks are at a comparable level, whereas exposure increased slightly
as a result of the increased value of the investment portfolio. The Group and the Company
maintain a sufficient level of highly liquid investments.
17.6.4
Operational
risks
The Group and the Company actively manage operational risks by continuously improving the
internal control environment and processes. Operational risks decreased slightly compared to
the previous year, as the Group took an effective approach to reducing risks associated with
Covid-19 and other risks, including cyber risks.
17.6.5
Strategic risks Due to an uncertain macroeconomic environment and the situation related to Covid-19,
strategic risks are an important risk category for the Group and Sava Re. These risks remain at
a level similar as the previous year, and both the Group and the Company are working to limit
the risks accordingly and to respond effectively and adapt to changes in the environment.

17.6.1 Impact of Covid-19 pandemic

Covid-19 has been present for a year and a half now, and is still being a source of many direct and indirect and direct uncertainties related to the attainment of business results and strategic goals of the Sava Insurance Group and Sava Re. Macroeconomic conditions and the situation on the financial markets resulted in a significant improvement in 2021, and the Group and the Company financially weath ered this period very well, without any major adverse ef fects of Covid-19 on business results. We are monitoring and analysing potential impacts and risks on a regular basis, with certain measures being adopted as necessary.

In 2021, we integrated the monitoring of Covid-19-related risks into the regular risk monitoring scheme and report ed on them in risk reports. The process of monitoring the effects of Covid-19 involved all Group companies. The monitoring was carried out in terms of impact of individual risks, current business performance, liquidity and capital adequacy. Theses analyses and reports were taken into consideration by the management when making decisions.

Both the Sava Insurance Group and Sava Re have demonstrated the resilience of the solvency status as related to market conditions over the entire period dom inated by Covid-19. The resilience of the Group's and the Company's solvency status was verified in the 2021 ORSA (which we submitted to the regulator in March 2021) against a stress scenario with high impacts on fi nancial investments based on the 2008–2009 financial crisis. Their capital adequacy and liquidity were further verified through the EIOPA stress test, which was re ported to the regulator in August 2021.

In the own risk and solvency assessment for 2022 (here inafter: ORSA 2022), the adequacy of the solvency status of the Company and the Group was also verified for the 2022–2024 period. The basis for conducting the 2022 ORSA is the business plan of Sava Re and the Sava Insurance Group for 2022 confirmed in December 2021, and financial projections for 2023 and 2024. The capital adequacy projections in the 2022 ORSA con firmed that, over the entire strategy period, the solvency position was compliant with both statutory provisions and Group/company internal rules, ensuring continuous and adequate liquidity. In ORSA 2022, we also focused on the implementation of stress scenarios and the analysis of their impacts. We implemented two scenarios with a higher impact, i.e. the inflation scenario and the EIOPA scenario, in which the EIOPA stress test shocks were applied. In both scenarios we also considered the poten tial impact on the insurance portfolios of the Company and the Group. The scenarios were implemented for 31 December 2022 (with consideration of financial pro jections), and they both confirmed the robustness of the Sava Insurance Group's and Sava Re's capital adequacy, which is significantly higher than the required regulatory amount, even if an individual scenario is realised.

Following the emergence of Covid-19, the Group took an active approach to minimise operational risks related to the epidemic, the adjusted method of operations in Group companies, and followed the business continui ty protocols. In 2020, a plan and the instructions were drafted to apply to changed circumstances or emergen cies such as a period of an epidemic or a pandemic. The instructions define four phases of conduct depending on the situation intended to reduce risks and plan work

activities under different circumstances. All Group com panies and thus all employees were acquainted with the plan. In accordance with the plan and consequently de pending on the current situation, Group companies or ganised their operations according to a hybrid format in 2021 as well (combining office work with working from home).

Employees receive weekly notifications on the epidemic situation, with updates from both the authorities and the Company. Despite the challenges brought about by the current circumstances, the Group managed to maintain regular and transparent communication with its employ ees, which enabled the Group to quickly react and adapt to change.

Following the required adaptation to the situation due to Covid-19 and the appropriate provision of support to employees and teleworking, we also adjusted some tech nical measures, with the aim of increasing the protection of the operation of information systems that have be come more exposed under the new system of working. We achieved this by introducing additional methods for detecting anomalies and suspicious patterns within the SIEM system, and by tightening certain policies and technical controls in this system. We also took the oppor tunity to integrate an advanced threat detection system on servers and final workstations and a system for more efficient system for security patch management on all types of information systems.

In 2021, the Sava Insurance Group continued with pro cesses adjusted to remote operations related to customer relations in both underwriting and claims settlement.

Realisation of the new annual life and pension insurance premiums in 2021 was higher than originally planned, while the aggravated business circumstances resulting from the measures did not significantly affect the un derwriting of new insurance policies, as most companies achieved the planned sales results. We did not detect a material increase in the mortality rate as a result of the pandemic. Nor did we record any significant increase in unpaid premiums, cancellations or surrenders in 2021. Working with clients, which was made more difficult due to the measures imposed, was largely addressed by mak ing increased use of digitalised business, which enabled clients to solve most matters remotely.

In the case of non-life insurance, we wrote less insurance premiums for the risk of cancellation related to travel and tourism in 2021. Concerning insurance of risk of trav el cancellation, we recorded a return of travel insurance premiums for insuring trips that were not realised due to Covid-19, as travel service providers did not offer their travel services throughout the year as a result of restric tions on such. Relative to the previous year, we saw more income from motor insurance in Zavarovalnica Sava and companies outside Slovenia.

With respect to non-life insurance claims, we recorded a lower number of liquidated claims from motor vehicle in surance, liability insurance, accident insurance, and travel cancellation insurance than planned. Companies outside Slovenia recorded larger claim volumes in motor vehicle insurance and accident insurance.

The Sava Insurance Group and Sava Re remain exposed with regard to business interruption coverages resulting from Covid-19. In 2020, incurred but not yet reported provisions were set aside for business interruption busi ness under (re)insurance contracts where grounds exist for covering claims for Covid-19 (insurance taken out in the Republic of Ireland based on the principle of the freedom to provide services in the EU, and reinsurance in the United Kingdom). These provisions relate to any ex penses and damages that may be incurred. Based on re ported claims, these provisions were used in 2021 to form provisions for reported but not yet paid claims. A legal regulatory risk remains in these markets that the inter pretations of the policy conditions could be unfavourable and additional claims will have to be paid.

After reviewing all lease contracts pursuant to IFRS 16 within the Group and the Company, we found that the contracts do not contain force majeure clauses, so they are treated as a lease modification, while the amounts are immaterial. We have examined the investment property assets owned by the Group and the Company and find that the Covid-19 epidemic had no impact on operations. The lessees do not operate in business sectors hit by the Covid-19 epidemic. We recorded no impairment losses or write-offs of receivables due to the effects of Covid-19 within the Group or the Company. We also examined the impact of circumstances related to Covid-19 on govern ment assistance received; however, the relevant amounts are immaterial.

The favourable effects of the measure taken by govern ments and associated economic stabilisation measures continued in 2021. The pandemic has changed our oper ations, negatively affecting supply chains, mainly in the industrial sector, but the impact on economic activity has been smaller than originally expected despite cer tain negative effects. Equity securities registered record growth in 2021, and credit spreads for debt securities risk remained at the previous year's level.

At the beginning of the pandemic, investment manage ment companies suffered a drop in the value of assets under management, which in turn led to lower revenue from management commissions. The quick rise in pric es of investments in securities that began in the second half of 2020 continued in 2021. In 2021, investment management companies recorded high growth in operat ing revenue and the value of assets under management, which can be explained by favourable developments in capital markets and negative interest rates.

Covid-19 had no significant impact on the liquidity of Group companies in 2021, as there were no major unfa vourable discrepancies between the realised and planned cash flow. Sava Re has a highly liquid portfolio of finan cial investments, which are used for the repayment of liabilities from insurance and other contracts. To ensure liquidity, Sava Re maintains a large share of its invest ment portfolio invested in government bonds, cash and demand deposits. The Group companies have adequate liquidity positions. In addition to their own sources of liquidity, they keep credit lines with Sava Re as a second ary source of liquidity.

Assessment of Covid-19-related risks and the goingconcern assumption

2021 was the second year of operations in changed circumstances due to Covid-19. We now understand the risks much better than at the beginning of the pandemic and we have determined that the risks within Sava Re and the Sava Insurance Group are well managed. We do not expect Covid-19 to have a significant negative impact on key risks in the future, as the Company took an active approach to managing these risks. The legal regulatory risk that the interpretation of policy conditions related to covering suspended operations would be unfavourable in some markets and that additional claims related to Covid- 19 would have to be paid remains open. The Group continuously identifies, monitors, analyses, and manages risks associated with Covid-19.

Covid-19-related uncertainties remain present in 2022, but we estimate that there will be no higher risks due to Covid-19 and, consequently, we do not expect any significant adverse effects on operations. Likewise, we do not expect the solvency of Sava Re and the Sava Insurance Group to be threatened in any way, as solvency ratios for both remain high and within reasonable expectations. We also believe that the liquidity risk within the Group is well-managed and do not expect a significant increase of this risk over the coming 12 months, so the going-concern assumption remains valid. Our assumption is based on the cash flow expected from the main activity and the composition of the investment portfolio that can provide adequate liquidity over a longer period of difficult circumstances.

17.6.2 Capital adequacy and capital management in the Sava Insurance Group and Sava Re

The Group and Sava Re use the standard formula for calculating their capital requirements under the Solvency II regime. The calculation of the solvency capital requirement (hereinafter: SCR) is carried out once a year completely, whereas eligible own funds supporting the Group's solvency requirements are valued on a quarterly basis. We also calculated SCR for internal purposes every quarter.

The capital requirements of the Company and the Group were met throughout 2021.

provide the capital adequacy calculation for Sava Re and the Group, both with auditor assurance and as at 31 December 2020.

Eligible own funds as at 31 December 2021 totalled EUR 601 million and were slightly higher than as at 31 December 2020 (EUR 567.8 million). Reasons for increased eligible own funds include the Group's profit, the appreciation of index- or unit-linked assets, and an increase in the value of portfolio investments. The Group SCR as at 31 December 2021 is higher than the SCR as at 31 December 2020. The main impact comes from the increase in market risks, which are amplified by the appreciation of investments in equity securities and investment funds. The Group remains most exposed to non-life underwriting risk. The Group's solvency ratio remained at the same level as at 31 December 2020. Accordingly, we assess the Group's insolvency risk as low.

Sava Re's eligible own funds as at 31 December 2021 totalled EUR 615.7 million and were slightly higher than as at 31 De cember 2020 (EUR 596 million). The increase in eligible own funds is mainly due to the strong profit of Save Re. The SCR of Save Re as at 31 December 2021 is similar to the SCR in the calculation as at 31 December 2020. Sava Re remains most exposed to market risk and non-life underwriting risk. Sava Re's solvency ratio is marginally higher than as at 31 December 2020. Accordingly, we assess Sava Re's insolvency risk as low.

At the Sava Insurance Group level, it is not only important to achieve regulatory capital adequacy, but to ensure that the lev el of capital meets the requirements of credit rating agencies for level "A" ratings, and that the Group remains solvent and is able to meet its obligations even if stress scenarios realise. To this end, the risk strategy of the Sava Insurance Group for 2020–2022, which defines the Group's risk appetite, defines the levels of required solvency ratios, as listed below.

The Group's solvency ratio as at 31 December 2021 indicates that the ratio is within the Group's optimal capital range, in accordance with the risk strategy.

17.6.3 Underwriting risks

Underwriting risk arises from the Group's (re)insurance activ ities, i.e. the underwriting of (re)insurance contracts, and per formance of (re)insurance contracts and transactions directly related to (re)insurance activities. It relates to the risks covered under (re)insurance contracts and associated processes, and arises from the uncertainty related to the occurrence, scope and timing of obligations.

Underwriting risk is generally divided into:

  • non-life underwriting risk,
  • life underwriting risk,
  • health underwriting risk (including accident (re)insurance).

The basic purpose of life, non-life and health insurance is the assumption of risk from policyholders. In addition to the risks directly assumed by the Group's primary insurance companies, the Group also assumes underwriting risk from cedants out side the Group through accepted reinsurance. Sava Re retains a portion of the assumed risks (from the Group and outside it) and retrocedes the portion that exceeds its capacity.

The Group and Sava Re are exposed to all three categories of risks. Accepted life reinsurance business of non-Group ced ants, including accident reinsurance business, is classified as health reinsurance risk. Due to their one-year duration and according to the nature of their coverage, this life reinsurance business is comparable to accepted accident reinsurance busi ness.

First, we present underwriting risks arising out of non-life busi ness. This is followed by risks arising out of life and health in surance business.

17.6.3.1 Non-life underwriting risk

Non-life underwriting risk is divided into:

  • Premium risk is the risk that premiums written are insufficient to meet the obligations arising from (re)insurance contracts. This risk depends on many factors, such as inadequate assessment of market developments, poor assessment of claims development, use of inadequate statistics, intentionally insufficient premiums for certain lines of business expected to be offset by other lines of business, or inadequate assessment of external macroeconomic factors that may change significantly during the term of a contract. These include:
    • underwriting process risk,
    • pricing risk and
    • risk of unexpected increase in claims.

Given the Group's portfolio structure, the largest contributors to premium risk include motor vehicle and property (re)insurance fire and other damage to property, including associated business interruption insurance). The Group's premium risk remained at a level similar to the previous year, which we assess as moderate. We further assess that this risk in Sava Re is also moderate.

Reserve risk is the risk that either technical provisions are insufficient to meet the obligations arising from (re)insurance contracts due to inadequate methods, inappropriate, incomplete and inaccurate data, inefficient procedures and controls or inadequate expert judgement, or misreporting, resulting in unreliable information about the financial position of the Company or the Group. These include:

  • the risk of data availability and accuracy, - the risk of adequacy of methods and assumptions

  • the risk of complex tools used in processes yielding

Like premium risk, most of the reserve risk originates from motor vehicle insurance and property business, for which technical provisions are also structurally the largest owing to the Group's traditional focus on such business. We assess the Group's reserve risk as similar to the previous year and moderate despite the high base, which is supported by control measures as described later in this section. We also assess the same

  • used,
  • the risk of a calculation error,
  • misleading results. risk for Sava Re as moderate.
  • Sava Re as moderate.

Catastrophe risk is the risk of an occurrence of a catastrophic event; such events are rare but their financial impact is too high to be covered merely by otherwise appropriate premiums and provisions. Catastrophe risk may materialise in the case of extreme events or a large number of catastrophic events in a short period. The risk also includes an excessive geographical accumulation of risks. The Group's portfolio is geographically relatively well diversified, with risks being slightly more concentrated in Slovenia, which is further addressed by means of the reinsurance programme. We assess the Group's disaster risk in 2021 as moderate and (given the volume of insurance portfolios) similar to the previous year. We also assess the same risk for

Lapse risk is the risk of loss or adverse change in the value of insurance liabilities resulting from changes in the level or volatility of lapse rates. The Group and the Company are not materially exposed to this type of risk. The risk of early termination of contracts in 2021 in Sava Re as well as in the Group is assessed as low and comparable to that in the previous year.

Recently, climate change risks have become a highly topical issue, which is why the Group and the Company pay more attention to them also by analysing long-term scenarios. Other underwriting risks, such as economic environment risk and policyholder behaviour risk, may be relevant, but their effect is already indirectly accounted for in the above non-life underwriting risk.

The Group's exposure to non-life underwriting risk, measured by the volume of consolidated net premiums earned by insurance class, is shown in the graph below.

Sava Insurance Group consolidated net non-life premiums earned138 by class of business (€m)

138

The breakdown of the Group's net non-life premiums earned did not change significantly in 2021.

The Group has more premiums in the Adria region, where the direct Group's subsidiaries operate; exposure to Slovenia is predominant. Diversification in 2021 remains similar to that of the previous year. Other exposures of Sava Re in other areas are relatively well diversified globally.

Because the Group as a whole has an adequate retrocession programme in place, it is not exposed to the risk of a sharp increase in net claims, not even in the case of catastrophic losses. A more likely scenario to which the Group is exposed to is the deterioration of the net combined ratio as a result of an increase in claims or expenses along with a decrease in premiums.

If the Group's net combined ratio were to change by 1 p.p. due to higher/lower underwriting risks, net profit before tax would decrease/increase by EUR 5.3 million (2020: EUR 5.2 million).

Sava Re's exposure to non-life underwriting risk, measured by the volume of consolidated net premiums earned by insurance class, is shown in the graph below.

Sava Re net non-life premiums earned by class of business139 (€m)

139

The breakdown of the Sava Re's net non-life (re)insurance premiums earned did not change significantly in 2021.

If Sava Re's net combined ratio changed due to higher/lower underwriting risks by 1 p.p., net profit before tax would change by EUR 1.7 million (2020: EUR 1.6 million). In 2021, an additional maximum net claim of EUR 5 million would have deteriorated the combined ratio by 3.0% (2020: 3.1%).

The Group and Sava Re manage non-life underwriting risks by:

• established underwriting processes, comprising procedures and an authorisation system for the underwriting of (re)insurance contracts with higher sums insured, and a process for the underwriting of (re) insurance contracts in accordance with internal underwriting guidelines for facultative underwriting for high

exposures;

  • underwriting limits;
  • geographical diversification;
  • an appropriate actuarial pricing policy applied in product design and controlling; and
  • an appropriate reinsurance programme.

The sections below explain risk management in greater detail by each non-life underwriting risk.

Premium risk

The Group seeks to mitigate underwriting process risk by restricting authorisations for mass underwriting, as well as by means of additional training of underwriters and agents, by providing understandable, clear and detailed instructions, and by defining appropriate underwriting limits that are consistent with the business strategy, the risk strategy and the reinsurance programme. In addition, we make special efforts to offer products to appropriate target clients (to prevent mis-selling and/or adverse selection), to accept reinsurance from trusted cedants, and to ensure that appropriate limits are in place for exposure concentration by geographical location and homogeneous risk groups, which maintain favourable risk diversification.

Another underwriting process risk is PML error, the inaccurate assessment of the Probable Maximum Loss (hereinafter: PML). In order to mitigate this risk, the Group has in place guidelines for PML assessment, requirements that PML assessments are a team exercise, and ensures that the reinsurance programme covers PML error. Most accepted non-life (re)insurance contracts are renewed annually. This allows insurers to amend the conditions and rates to take into account any deterioration in the underwriting results of entire classes of business, and for major policyholders in a timely manner. Where significant primary insurance risks are involved, adequately qualified underwriting experts of the parent company are involved. Additionally, in respect of risks exceeding the limits set out in the obligatory reinsurance treaties, it is vital that adequate facultative reinsurance cover is obtained to upgrade the basic reinsurance programme.

The net retention limit per risk is set at EUR 4 million for the majority of non-life classes of insurance and a combined limit of EUR 4 million is used for the classes fire and natural forces, other damage to property and miscellaneous financial loss; a net retention limit of EUR 2 million is set for motor liability and for marine. In principle, this caps any net claim arising out of any single loss event at a maximum of EUR 4 million.

The Group seeks to mitigate price risk before launching a product by making in-depth market analyses, staying informed (media, competitors, clients), monitoring applicable regulations and associated requirements, and monitoring historical claim trends (for the entire market) and forecasts. In respect of obligatory proportional reinsurance treaties, Sava Re follows the fortune of its ceding companies, while with non-proportional and facultative contracts, the decision on assuming a risk is on Sava Re. It follows from the foregoing that in order to manage this risk, it is essential to review the practices of existing and future ceding companies and to analyse developments in the relevant markets and in the relevant classes of insurance. Consequently, coverage may only be granted by taking into account internal underwriting guidelines, whereby, based on available information and the set prices, as well as other relevant contractual provisions, the results need to comply with the target combined ratios. The suitability of pricing is verified through modelling and other detailed profitability reviews.

The Group mitigates claims risk through in-depth assessments of underwriting process risk, by restricting the authorisations in the underwriting process, and by developing IT support that allows an accurate overview of claims accumulation. For accepted reinsurance, this risk, too, can be managed by means of special clauses in proportional reinsurance contracts, which limit the reinsurer's share of unexpected claims, and by not accepting unlimited layers under non-proportional contracts. Also central to reducing this risk is the annual testing of the appropriateness of reinsurance protection using a variety of stress tests and scenarios, and setting appropriate retentions. Retention levels and per risk reinsurance protection in 2021 remain similar to the previous year.

Reserve risk

The Group manages reserve risk by means of robust pro cesses and effective controls as regards the calculation of technical provisions in accordance with both IFRS and Solvency II regulations. In addition, it conducts annual backtesting of the appropriateness of technical provi sions, analysing any major reasons for their insufficiency. Insufficiency of technical provisions and may occur be cause of inaccurate actuarial estimates or an unexpect edly unfavourable loss development. It may be a result of new types of losses that have not been excluded in ced ants' insurance conditions and for which no claims pro visions have yet been established, which is common with liability insurance contracts, but can also occur due to changed court practices. All experience so gained is then used in the calculation of future technical provisions.

By documenting and understanding such a process, the Group can identify and describe potential risks, such as the:

  • risk of data availability and accuracy,
  • risk of adequacy of methods and assumptions used,
  • risk of a calculation error,
  • risk associated with supporting IT systems and tools.

Controls are put in place for the mitigation of each iden tified risk. These controls ensure data quality and miti gate the risks associated with the calculation of technical provisions. The design and operational effectiveness of controls are reviewed at least annually and whenever a significant change occurs in the process or methods and models used to calculate technical provisions.

Such controls include:

• reconciliation of technical provision items with ac -

• peer review of actuarial methods and assumptions, • changes to management controls relating to the IT

- counting records,

  • tools used in the process,
  • provisions.

• actuarial review and approval of the level of technical

The process by which technical provisions are calculated is subject to periodic approval. Where substantial chang es have been made to the process, the methodology or models used in the calculation of technical provisions, a validation is carried out in accordance with the reporting schedule.

Back-testing of the adequacy of technical provisions in 2021

Unearned premiums are established by Group members on a pro rata basis at the insurance policy level. In addition to unearned premiums, Group companies establish provisions for unexpired risks for those homogeneous risk groups where the combined ratio (loss ratio plus expense ratio) is expected to exceed 100%, as described in the notes to technical provisions.

The adequacy of the values of claims provisions or technical provisions is verified through a run-off analysis. This can only be applied to past years – the further back in

time, the more precise the results. Given that technical provisions are calculated using consistent actuarial methods, we can conclude, based on past discrepancies between originally estimated liabilities and subsequently established liabilities at individual dates of the statement of financial position, that the provisions as at 31 December 2021 are adequate. Due to the difference in posting claims provisions for accepted reinsurance and primary insurance business (discussed later in this section), the run-off analysis was made separately for primary insurance and reinsurance business; in the latter case, we only show the accepted business of cedants outside the Group

to show the adequacy of gross provisions at the Group level.

Group primary insurance companies record and analyse claims provision data by accident year. The table below shows an analysis of gross claims provisions established by the Group for liabilities under non-life primary insurance contracts. Amounts were translated from local currencies into euros using the exchange rate prevailing at the end of the year (provisions) or in the middle of the year (claims paid).

The cumulative gross redundancies for the accident years from 2016 to 2019 increased compared to amounts at the end of the preceding year, which were 40.7%, 30.9%, 20.2% and 12.3% of original estimates.

The Group cannot use triangles organised by accident year data for recording claims provisions in respect of accepted reinsurance business. This is because ceding companies report claims under proportional treaties broken down by underwriting year. As claims under one-year policies written during any one year may occur either in the year the policy is written or in the year after, data on losses for proportional reinsurance contracts is only broken down by underwriting year. Furthermore, some markets renew treaty business during the year, resulting

in additional discrepancies between the underwriting year and the accident year. Due to these specifics, the Group provides data on reinsurer's share by underwriting year. The estimated liabilities relate to claims that have already been incurred (reported and not reported) and the settlement of which is covered by the claims provision, and claims arising from accepted contracts that have not yet been incurred and the settlement of which is covered by unearned premiums less deferred commission.

The table below therefore shows originally estimated gross or net liabilities with claims provisions included at any year-end plus unearned premiums less deferred commission, which is compared to subsequent estimates of these liabilities.

Lapse risk

It is estimated that lapse risk is less important for the Group, as the vast majority of non-life insurance policies is written for one year and cannot be terminated early without the insurer's consent (except in case of premium default or if the subject-matter of the insurance policy is no longer owned by the policyholder or has been destroyed due to a loss event). The majority of accepted reinsurance contracts is also written for a period of one year. The risk associated with these contracts is also mitigated by nurturing good business relations with policy holder cedants and by closely analysing the market situation.

Catastrophe risk

The Group manages catastrophe risk by means of a well-designed underwriting process, by controlling risk

140

concentration for products covering larger complexes against natural disasters and fire, by geographical diversification, and by adequate retrocession protection against natural and man-made catastrophes. In managing these risks, due consideration is given to the fact that maximum net aggregate losses in any one year are affected by both the maximum net claim arising from a single catastrophe event and the frequency of such events.

An appropriate reinsurance programme is important for managing the underwriting risk to which the Group is exposed. Sava Re uses retrocession treaties to diversify risk appropriately. The reinsurance programme is set up to reduce exposure to potential single large losses or the effect of a large number of single losses arising from the same loss event. The Group considers its reinsurance programme (including proportional and non-proportion-

al reinsurance) to be appropriate in view of the risks to which it is exposed. Net retention limits set by the Group are only rarely applied. The Group also concludes co-insurance and reciprocal contracts with other reinsurers to further disperse risks.

The risk related to natural catastrophes is assessed as the largest risk among non-life underwriting risks of the Company and the Group. The Company has the highest exposure to natural disasters in Slovenia, whereas exposures elsewhere are relatively well-diversified globally.

The following table shows the Company's gross natural catastrophe exposures for the 10 countries with the highest exposure as at 31 December 2021.

140The balances as at 31 December 2020 are presented for comparison; they are not necessarily the highest exposures in the year.

Exposure to Slovenia is higher compared to the previous year due to higher exposure under quota share reinsurance business written with Zavarovalnica Sava.

At the Group level, the exposure to natural catastrophes is higher than shown above only in the regions where the Group companies underwrite property insurance; the

141

largest gross aggregate exposure to natural catastrophes is thus concentrated in Slovenia. The Group has in place a catastrophe reinsurance programme (detailed below), under which it covers a maximum of EUR 5 million per event, with the remainder ceded to reinsurers. The following table gives the gross aggregate exposures in Slovenia by peril.

Gross aggregate exposures in Slovenia by peril

EUR thousand141 2021 2020
Flood 12,469,313 11,957,377
Earthquake 13,298,175 10,278,567
Storm and hail 51,152,165 50,011,579

The Group's primary insurance business and separately accepted non-Group reinsurance business is protected against natural catastrophes based on non-proportional catastrophe excess-of-loss coverages for own account. Even prior to the operation of the non-proportional protection, the portfolio of earthquake (re)insurance business of the Group's cedants is protected by a quota share retrocession treaty. This means that if a major event occurs, the Group will suffer a loss equal, at most, to the amount of the priority of the catastrophe excess-of-loss cover plus a reinstatement premium; the priority of the catastrophe programme for Group business remained unchanged in 2021 at EUR 5 million, while the priority of the catastrophe programme for non-Group accepted reinsurance was reduced to EUR 4 million in 2021, resulting in reduced net exposure to a catastrophic event in this portfolio. If the Group makes additional use of the coverage, it is subject to provisions concerning rein-

statements, meaning that it would purchase protection for the remaining period of cover. This is a common instrument available in the international reinsurance market at a price that is usually lower than the original cover due to the shorter coverage period. To cap the aggregate amount of claims in a period, the Slovenian portfolio is further covered by an aggregate reinsurance cover. It ensures that the Group remains solvent even if several catastrophic events occur in a single year.

Apart from the abovementioned reduction in the priority of the catastrophe programme for accepted reinsurance of cedants outside the Group, the reinsurance programme was adjusted to the changes in accepted business (termination of FoS business) compared to the previous year, but it did not change significantly from the previous year. In this way, the Group maintains catastrophe risk at a level comparable to 2020.

Assessed risk exposure in 2021 compared to 2020

We estimate the Group's non-life underwriting risk as moderate and well managed, and it remains at a similar level to the previous year. Net non-life premiums written dropped by 0.8% in 2021.

According to our assessment, the likelihood that the non-life underwriting risk will seriously compromise the Group's or Sava Re's financial stability is estimated as low, while there are no significant differences between 2021 and 2020.

17.6.3.2 Life underwriting risk

The main life underwriting risks are:

  • biometric risks, which are divided into:
  • mortality risk,
  • longevity risk
  • disability-morbidity risk,
  • life expense risk,
  • revision risk,
  • lapse risk, being the risk of early termination of life insurance contracts, includes terminations due to surrenders, conversion to paid-up status and premium default,
  • life catastrophe risk.

141 The data compiled are as at 30 June of each year.

The Group is moderately exposed to life underwriting risk. The Group's main exposure to life underwriting risk is in the EU. The structure of net premiums earned from the Group's life insurance business is shown in the chart below.

Consolidated net premiums earned of the Sava Insurance Group by line of business (€m)

Sava Re's exposure to life underwriting risk is low. In 2021, net premiums earned from the reinsurance of traditional life insurance amounted to EUR 548 thousand (2020: EUR 515 thousand) and net premiums earned from unit-linked life insurance EUR 42 thousand (2020: EUR 50 thousand).

The Group's key exposures are to lapse risk, mortality risk and expense risk. Other risks related to the Group's life insurance business are lower and are therefore not discussed in detail herein.

Lapse risk is the risk of an increase or decrease in lapse rates (rate of early termination of contracts) due to surrenders, conversions to paid-up status, or premium default. Risk levels depend on the use of adequate statistics, identification of terminations for various reasons in an underwriting year, and economic situation, which, to a certain extent, affect the behaviour of policyholders. Risk levels also depend on competitive insurance products available in the market, and advice provided by insurance intermediaries and financial advisers.

The Group manages lapse risk mainly by means of quarterly monitoring of the number and percentage of policies lapsed, by restricting surrenders if an approval by the insurer is required, and by the systematic prevention of insurance rearrangements by intermediaries.

Mortality risk is the risk that the actual mortality of insured persons will turn out to be greater than projected in mortality tables used during premium pricing. Risk levels depend on the use of adequate statistics and identification of insured persons with an increased mortality risk due to health reasons or a risky lifestyle.

The procedures used to manage mortality risk are: consistent application of underwriting protocols, which specify in detail the deviation from normal mortality risk, regular monitoring of exposures and adequacy of mortality tables used, and appropriate reinsurance protection.

Life expense risk is the risk that the actual expenses incurred in servicing life insurance contracts turn out to be greater than projected in pricing. Risk levels depend on the use of adequate statistics, and an increase in the actual expenses incurred in servicing life insurance contracts.

Life-expense risk is managed by the Group by periodic monitoring of the expenses incurred in servicing life insurance contracts, monitoring the macroeconomic situation (e.g. inflation), and appropriately planning the servicing of expenses for the coming years.

Financial statements of the Re with notes

15 Auditor'sreport

Besides the above-specified ways in each type of life-in surance business, the Group also controls life under writing risks by regularly monitoring the life portfolio structure, exposure, premium payment patterns, lapse rates and expenses incurred in a specific period, as well as by analysing the appropriateness of the modelling of the expected mortality, morbidity, and lapse rates. The infor mation so obtained allows for timely action in the case of adverse developments in these indicators.

The Group additionally manages life underwriting risk by strictly following underwriting and risk assessment proce dures. These specify the criteria and terms of approving risk acceptance. At given premium rates, risk assumption depends on the age at entry and the requested sum in sured. The Group accepts risks if the insured's health, as a measure of risk quality, is in line with table data listing criteria for medical examinations. An additional factor in the assumption of risks is lifestyle, including leisure activ ities and occupation. The Group has in place an appropri ate reinsurance programme in order to limit the impact of underwriting risk (death and additional risks); covers are generally on a proportional basis. The retention of insurance companies does not exceed EUR 100,000.

There is no significant concentration of life underwriting risk at the Group level, as the portfolio is well-diversified in terms of the age of the insured persons, the remaining period of insurance, exposures (of sums insured and sums at risk), and premium payment schedule. The portfolio is also diversified in terms of the percentage of policies lapsed in a period, expenses and mortality, and morbidity rates by product.

Assessed risk exposure in 2021 compared to 2020

We estimate the Group's life underwriting risk as mod erate and well managed, remaining at a similar level to 2020.

17.6.3.3 Health underwriting risk

Health underwriting risk includes:

  • health underwriting risks pursued on a similar technical basis as non-life insurance (hereinafter: NSLT health

  • business);
  • ness).

• health underwriting risks pursued on a similar technical basis as life insurance (hereinafter: SLT health busi -

The Group is exposed to both types of health underwrit ing risk. The majority of the exposure relates to accident insurance, which is classified as NSLT health insurance, while the exposure to SLT health insurance is very small.

NSLT health underwriting risks are, inherently, very sim ilar to non-life underwriting risks and are therefore dis cussed in greater detail in section 17.6.3.1 Non-life un derwriting risk focusing on non-life business. The Group applies similar techniques to manage them, i.e. by means of a well-designed underwriting process, control of risk concentration for accident and health insurance prod ucts, and adequate reinsurance protection.

SLT health underwriting risks are by their nature very similar to life underwriting risks, and are therefore man aged by the Group using similar techniques. They are discussed in greater detail in section 17.6.3.2 "Life under writing risk".

Assessed risk exposure in 2021 compared to 2020

We consider the Group's and Sava Re's exposure to health underwriting risk in 2021 low and comparable to 2020.

17.6.4 Financial risks

In their financial operations, individual Group companies are exposed to financial risks arising from the investment portfolio and relating to market, liquidity, and credit risk as well as the risk of failure to realise guaranteed returns on life business.

The value of the investment portfolio includes the fol lowing balance sheet items: financial investments, invest ment property, investments in subsidiaries, cash and cash equivalents, and assets held for the benefit of policyhold ers who bear the investment risk.

As at 31 December 2021, the balance-sheet value of this investment portfolio stood at EUR 2,113.5 million (31 December 2021: EUR 1956.0 million).

Financial statements of the Re with notes

15 Auditor'sreport

In terms of risk, the investment portfolio portion focused on the assets held for the benefit of policyholders who bear the investment risk (hereinafter: KSNT) can be divided into:

• The investments of policyholders relating to the liabilities of unit-linked life business where policyholders fully bear the full investment risk. This part of the investment portfolio is invested in mutual funds selected by policyholders (matching of assets and liabilities). In accordance with the revaluation of investments in mutual funds based on market rates, mathematical provisions are also revalued, so these investments are excluded from the risk analysis, but the data is presented in the tables below showing the entire investment portfolio. The value of these investments was EUR 447.2 million at the end of 2021 (in 2021: EUR 325.4 million).

• Investments supporting the liabilities of unit-linked life business for which the insurer provides guaranteed unit values. For this part of the investment portfolio, the insurance company assumes the risk of achieving the guaranteed return and all market risks. The Com-

pany defines an investment policy for this investment portfolio part, which covers various types of investments included in a more detailed analysis of financial risks, as the insurance company assumes them in full.

This portion of the investments of assets of policyholders who assume investment risk from the point of view of the insurance company's financial risk exposure is shown in the table below, together with investments supporting non-life and traditional life insurance.

The value of Sava Re's financial investments exposed to market risk rose by EUR 55.4 million in 2021 compared to year-end 2020, as explained in section 9.2.1.1 "Investment portfolio" of the business report part.

17.6.4.1.1 Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the Group or the Company will be exposure to losses resulting from fluctuations in interest rates. These can cause a decrease in investments or an increase in liabilities.

The major part of interest rate risk on the liabilities side affects the life insurance segment (mathematical provisions). Based on the prescribed methodology for the

calculation of technical provisions for the purposes of preparing financial statements, on the non-life business side only temporary and life annuities arising out of liability policies are interest-rate sensitive; however, any change in liabilities due to changes in the capitalised value of annuities as a result of a decline in interest rates is negligible and has therefore not been considered in those calculations.

Interest rate risk is measured through a sensitivity analysis, by observing the change in the value of investments in interest-rate sensitive assets or the value of mathematical provisions in case of a change in interest rate of 1 p.p. The interest-rate sensitive bond portfolio includes

government and corporate bonds, deposits, loans, bond mutual funds with a weight of 1 and mixed mutual funds with a weight of 0.5.

Interest rate risk of the Group

The total value of investments included in the interest risk calculation as at 31 December 2021 was EUR 1,422.5 million (31 December 2020: EUR 1,425.9 million). Of this, EUR 743.8 million (31 December 2020: EUR 689.9 million) relates to assets of non-life insurers (including Sava Re) and EUR 678.8 million (31 December 2020: EUR 735.9 million) to assets of life insurers.

The sensitivity analysis of the non-life segment as at 31 December 2021 showed that in the event of an interest rate increase of 1 p.p., the value of the interest rate sensitive investments would drop EUR 29.4 million (31 December 2020: EUR 26.7 million) or 4.0% (31 December 2019: 3.9%). The table below shows in greater detail how the value of investments changes in response to a change in interest rates and the impact on the financial statements, where the impact on equity is a result of available-for-sale and held-to-maturity investments,

loans and deposits, and the impact on profit or loss is a result of investments classified as at fair value through profit or loss.

15 Auditor'sreport

As at 31 December 2021, the value of the mathematical provisions included in the sensitivity analysis on the liabilities side amounted to EUR 443.6 million (31 December 2020: EUR 465.6 million). A sensitivity analysis for liabilities (mathematical provisions) showed that if the present value of mathematical provisions is calculated

using an interest rate that is 1 p.p. higher, the mathematical provisions in accordance with the LAT test would decrease by EUR 17.4 million, or 3.9%, (31 December 2020: EUR 16.5 million; 3.5%). By contrast, if the provision is calculated using a 1 p.p. lower interest rate, mathematical provisions in accordance with LAT test would

increase by EUR 20.4 million, or 4.6% (31 December 2019: EUR 20.5 million; 4.4%). The sensitivity analysis includes the results of the LAT test set out in section 17.4.27 "Liability adequacy test (LAT)".

The results of the sensitivity analysis on the assets and liabilities side show that assets are moderately less sensitive to changes in interest rates compared to 2020, whereas mathematical provisions are marginally more sensitive. In 2021, the Group also adjusted the maturity of assets and liabilities to reduce the net effect of interest rate changes on the Group's balance sheets. The difference between the average maturity of assets and liabilities separately for life and non-life business is presented below.

The average maturity of bonds and deposits of non-life business was 4.06 years at year-end 2021 (31 December 2020: 4.03 years), while the expected maturity of nonlife liabilities was 2.10 years (31 December 2020: 2.08 years).

The average maturity of bonds and deposits of life business was 5.43 years at year-end 2021 (31 December 2020: 5.60 years), and the expected maturity of life liabilities was 6.04 years (31 December 2020: 6.44 years). We estimate that interest rate risk did not change significantly in 2021 compared to the previous year. The value of interest-sensitive assets and interest-sensitive liabilities remained at similar levels, as did the difference between the maturities of assets and liabilities. Due to the low interest rate environment, the companies are primarily exposed to reinvestment risk, and this is particularly important for the life insurance segment, which must meet its commitments regarding guaranteed returns over a longer period.

Sava Re interest rate risk

Given that according to the prescribed methodology for the calculation of technical provisions, Sava Re does not have interest-rate sensitive technical provisions, changes in market interest rates are

only reflected in the value of the investment portfolio. The interest-rate sensitive investment portfolio includes government and corporate bonds, loans granted, bond and convertible mutual funds with a weight of 1, and mixed mutual funds with a weight of 0.5.

The sensitivity analysis showed that an increase in interest rates would lower the value of the investment portfolio included in the analysis by EUR 10.6 million (31 December 2020: EUR 9.0 million) or 3.7% (31 December 2020: 3.8%).

We estimate that the interest rate risk increased slightly due to a larger volume of interest-sensitive investments.

As at 31 December 2021, the value of the Group's investments exposed to property risk stood at EUR 30.1 million (31 December 2020: EUR 30.5 million) and decreased by EUR 0.3 million compared to the previous period.

As at 31 December 2021, the value of the Sava Re investments exposed to investment property risk stood at EUR 12.3 million (31 December 2020: EUR 12.0 million) and has increased by EUR 0.3 million compared to the previous period, mainly due to the recorded commitment of funds with real-estate fund managers.

Property risk was assessed by applying a 15% decrease to the value of investments. The result is shown in the tables below.

15 Auditor'sreport

In the case of such a shock, the value of the Group's investments exposed to investment property risk would decrease by EUR 4.5 million, while the value of investments of Sava Re exposed to investment property risk would decrease by EUR 1.8 million.

17.6.4.1.3 Equity risk

Equity risk is the risk that the value of investments will decrease due to fluctuations in equity markets. Assets exposed to the risk include shares, equity and mixed mutual funds (a stress test takes into account half of the value) and alternative funds (infrastructure).

Unlike the bond portfolio, which moves inversely to interest

rates, the value of equities and mutual funds changes linearly with stock prices. A 10% drop in the value of equity securities to assess the sensitivity of the Group's investments to equity risk would result in a decrease in the value of investments by EUR 9.8 million (31 December 2020: EUR 7.4 million). Thus, a 20% fall in equity prices would reduce the value of investments by EUR 19.7 million (31 December 2020: EUR 14.9 million). The Group shows the highest concentration of equity risk is to Slovenia-based issuers. The value of investments in Slovenian-issued equity securities at year-end 2021 stood at EUR 12.8 million, accounting for 13.0% of all assets sensitive to changes in equity securities (2020: EUR 18.4 million, 24.7%).

15 Auditor'sreport

The Sava Insurance Group's exposure to equity risk increased slightly in 2021 compared to year-end 2020 due to an increased exposure to mutual and alternative funds. We estimate that the risk increased somewhat in 2021.

Sava Re's assets exposed to equity risk include equities, equity and mutual funds, and infrastructure funds. Investments in subsidiaries are excluded from stress tests, as the Group and the Company assess their value in accordance with the policy described in section 17.4.13 "Financial investments in subsidiaries and associates".

As at 31 December 2021, investments exposed to the equity risk accounted for 3.6% of Sava Re's investment portfolio, 0.5 p.p. more compared to year-end 2020.

In order to assess the sensitivity of investments to equity risk, we assume a 10% drop in the value of all equity securities included in the stress test, which would result in a drop in the value of investments by EUR 2.5 million (31 December 2020: EUR 2.0 million). Thus, a 20% drop in equity prices would reduce the value of investments by EUR 5.0 million (31 December 2020: EUR 3.9 million).

Sava Re shows the highest concentration of equity risk to Slovenia-based issuers. The value of investments in equity securities of Slovenian issuers at year-end 2021 stood at EUR 6.7 million, representing 27.0% of assets sensitive to changes in equity securities (2020: EUR 9.2 million, 46.8%).

The Group's and Sava Re's equity risk in 2021 increased.

In 2021, Sava Re's financial investments in subsidiaries and associates included one major exposure, i.e. the investment in Zavarovalnica Sava, the value of which as at 31 December 2021 accounted for 38.1% (31 December 2020: 38.7) of the entire value of

financial investments in subsidiaries and associates. As at 31 December 2021, Sava Re's total exposure to the risk related to financial investments in subsidiaries and associates was EUR 324.1 million (31 December 2020: EUR 319.1 million).

The table below shows the value of investments in subsidiaries and associates taking into account the shock.

Sava Re's exposure to the risk related to financial investments in subsidiaries and associates was somewhat larger in 2021 than in 2020. Taking account of all the impacts,

we believe that the risk related to participations remained moderate due to their active management.

The Sava Insurance Group and Sava Re manage the risk relat ed to their financial investments in subsidiaries and associates through active management of the companies, comprising:

  • a governance system (management and supervision), and clear segregation of responsibilities at all levels;
  • risk management policy;
  • systematic risk management with a three-lines-of-de fence framework (detailed in section 11 "Risk manage ment");
  • the setting of business and risk management strategies from the top down, taking into account both the Group as a whole as well as its individual members;
  • a comprehensive system of monitoring operations, re porting on business results and risks at all levels.

17.6.4.1.4 Currency risk

Currency risk is the risk that changes in exchange rates will lower the value of foreign-denominated assets or increase liabilities denominated in foreign currencies.

The Sava Insurance Group manages currency risk through the efforts of each company to optimise asset-liability cur rency matching. As at 31 December 2021, the Sava Insur ance Group recorded 8.6% of liabilities nominated in a for eign currency (2020: 9.1%).

Based on the market situation, individual companies assess the ability of currency matching in the primary currency, and, if this is not possible, the transaction currency is used for matching.

The following table includes the currency mismatch for the Sava Insurance Group for the five currencies that account for the largest share of liabilities. The mismatch is shown by both the settlement currency and the transaction currency.

Sava Re is the Sava Insurance Group member with the largest exposure to currency risk.

As at 31 December 2021, the Company's liabilities denominated in foreign currencies accounted for 17.5% of its total liabilities. As the proportion of international business is rising (as is the number of different currencies), Sava Re has put in place a currency matching policy. It took measures for the matching of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies aimed at decreasing currency risk. The currency matching rules lays down the criteria as to when the Company is to start the currency mismatch by accounting currency142. Based on the market situation, the Company assesses the ability of currency matching in the primary currency, and if this is not possible, the transaction currency is to be used for matching.143 The currency matching policy of a company defines the conditions and method of matching. Currency matching of assets and liabilities using the accounting and transaction currency methodology is shown in the table "Transaction currency match".

Currency mismatch of assets and liabilities is monitored by individual accounting currency. The following table includes the currency mismatch for the five currencies that account for the largest share of liabilities.

142The accounting currency is the local currency used in the accounting documentation. Reinsurance contracts may be accounted for in various accounting currencies. Generally, this is the currency of liabilities and receivables due from cedants, and hence also the reinsurer.

143The transaction currency is the currency in which reinsurance contract transactions are processed.

In the management of currency risk (management aspect), Sava Re managed to directly match all substantially liquid currencies. Other currencies were matched based on their correlation with the euro or the US dollar. Since many accounting currencies are at least 90% correlated to the US dollar, the surplus of assets over liabilities in US dollars has been reduced to EUR 2.8 million (from EUR 12.7 million). This would further increase the currency matching percentage to 99.0% (2020: 98.4%).

The Company also uses a stochastic analysis to measure currency risk and to predict the average surplus funds as well as the 5th percentile of surplus funds after one year from the risk valuation date.

Based on exchange rates to which Sava Re has been exposed to over the past five years and the corresponding euro equivalent surpluses of assets and liabilities as at 31 December 2021, we made a stochastic analysis that projected that, assuming an unaltered currency structure, after one year the average surplus of assets over liabilities would be EUR 0.1 million (31 December 2020: EUR 0.3 million), but with a 5-percent probability that the deficit of assets exceeds EUR 0.3 million (31 December 2020: EUR 0.5 million).

Effect of exchange differences on the income statement

A currency mismatch also affects profit or loss through ac counting for exchange rate differences due to the impact of exchange rate changes on various statement of financial posi tion items.

When assets and liabilities are 100% matched in terms of for eign currencies, changes in exchange rates have no impact on profit or loss. This is because any change in the value of assets denominated in a foreign currency as a result of a change in the exchange rate is offset by the change in the value of lia bilities denominated in that currency. As Sava Re's assets and liabilities are not 100% currency matched, changes in ex change rates do affect profit or loss. The following table shows the impact of exchange differences.

Other Group companies whose local currency is the euro (companies based in Slovenia, Montenegro and Kosovo) have the majority of euro-denominated liabilities, while a process of currency matching is conducted with regard to liabilities denominated in currencies other than euro when the mate riality threshold is exceeded. Group companies whose local currency is not the euro (companies based in Croatia, Serbia and North Macedonia), transact most business in their re spective local currencies, while due to Group relations, they are to a minor extent subject to euro-related currency risk.

We estimate that currency risk at the Group level remained the same in 2021 compared to 2020 since Sava Re is taking measures to reduce exposure to currency risk, and it contin ues currency matching of assets and liabilities both directly based on accounting currencies and indirectly based on trans action currencies, and thus reduces exposure to currency risk.

17.6.4.2 Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that, owing to unexpected or unexpectedly high obligations, the Company will not be able to meet all its financial obligations.

Individual Group companies manage liquidity risk in line with the guidelines laid down in the Sava Re Group li quidity risk management policy. Each Group member carefully plans and monitors the realisation of cash flows (cash inflows and outflows), and in the case of liquidity problems, informs the parent company, which assesses the situation and provides the necessary funds to ensure liquidity.

Liquidity risk assumed by an individual Group company is also reduced by the regular measurement and mon itoring of selected liquidity indicators. An indicator of liquidity risk is the level of maturity matching of finan cial assets and liabilities.

Liquidity requirements are met by allocating funds to money market instruments in the percentage consist ent with the estimated normal current liquidity require ment. In this regard, each EU-based Group company

maintains a liquidity buffer of highly liquid assets ac counting for at least 15% of its investment portfolio. Highly liquid assets are intended to provide liquidity to meet any extraordinary liquidity requirements and are available on an ongoing basis. The other Group mem bers manage their short-term liquidity requirements through cash in bank accounts and short-term deposits.

The table below shows the value of financial investments and technical provisions covering life policies by year based on undiscounted cash flows, while the value of technical provisions covering non-life business is shown by year and expected maturity based on triangular de velopment. The Group companies cover the excess of li abilities over assets with a maturity of less than one year with assets available on call and through surplus cash flows arising out of current operations.

ANNUAL REPORT 2021

Financial statements of the Re with notes

15 Auditor'sreport

As at 31 December 2021, highly liquid investments of the Sava Insurance Group represented 37.5% (31 December 2020: 37.7%) of the entire investment portfolio, which demonstrates its high liquidity.

Sava Re manages liquidity risk by ensuring funds in the amount of the estimated liquidity requirement. This comprises estimated ordinary current liquidity needs and liquidity reserves, which are ensured through the allocation of funds in money market instruments and through setting minimum percentages of portfolios that must be invested in highly liquid assets readily available to provide liquidity in case of emergency.

Sava Re makes the normal current liquidity assessment based on the projected cash flow analysis in the period of up to one year included in the monthly and weekly plans, which take into account the planned investment maturity dynamics as well as other inflows and outflows from operating activities. To this end, historical data from previous monthly and weekly liquidity plans and projections regarding future operations are used. The liquidity reserve is then calculated on the basis of an assessment of the maximum weekly outflows based on historical data.

Exposure to liquidity risk is also measured by maturity-matching of assets and liabilities. The following table shows the value of financial investments by year based on undiscounted cash flows, while the value of technical provisions is shown by year and expected maturity based on triangular development.

Sava Re held EUR 160.2 million or 45.0% (31 December 2020: EUR 134.2 million; 46.0%) of highly liquid investments.

In terms of the Company's liquidity, matching of maturity of gross technical provisions and reserves with funds of the non-life insurance register is important. Sava Re's liabilities with up to 1 year's maturity at the end of 2021 exceeded short-term assets by EUR 16.4 million. Taking into consideration expected operating income and a high share of liquid investments, we estimate the Company's liquidity position as appropriate.

The average maturity of assets and liabilities also indicates the liquidity situation. The average maturity of bonds and deposits of the non-life insurance register was 3.81 years at year-end 2021 (31 December 2020: 3.97 years), while the expected maturity of liabilities was 2.84 years (31 December 2020: 2.82 years).

Based on the above, we estimate that liquidity risk is well managed at both the Group and individual company levels and did not increase significantly compared to yearend 2020.

Fixedrate investments with no credit rating available accounted for 8% of fixed-rate investments. Almost 45% of these investments included investments in cash and cash equivalents, while a significant part (15%) consists of investments in government bonds in Group company portfolios outside the EU and bond mutual funds (25%).

As regards management of credit risk, the objective pursued by the Company determines that the investments rated "A-" or better account for at least 45% of the entire investment portfolio value. As at 31 December 2021, investments rated "A" or better represented 68.1% of total investments exposed to credit risk (31 December 2020: 66.8%). The Company regularly monitors exposure to individual issuers and any changes in credit standing in order to be able to prepare for a timely response to any adverse developments in financial markets or increase in risk related to any issuer.

Sava Re mitigates credit risk with other investments through a high degree of diversification and by investing in liquid securities.

The investment portfolios of the Sava Insurance Group and Sava Re is reasonably diversified in accordance with local law and Group internal rules in order to avoid large concentration in a certain type of investment, large concentration with any counterparty or economic sector or other potential forms of concentration.

At the year end, the exposure of Sava Re to Slovenia-based issuers was EUR 63.1 million, representing 17.3% of financial investments (31 December 2020: EUR 65.2 million; 21.4%). Compared to 2020, the structural share of such investments increased by 4.1 p.p., chiefly due to the lower balance of cash and cash equivalents, and shares.

As at 31 December 2021, the Group's exposure to the ten largest issuers was EUR 481.7 million, representing 29.3% of financial investments (31 December 2020: EUR 451.7 million; 35.6%). The largest single issuer of securities to which the Group is exposed is the Republic of Slovenia.

As at 31 December 2021, Sava Re's exposure to the ten largest issuers was EUR 134.6 million, representing 36.9% of financial investments (31 December 2020: EUR 108.6 million; 35.6%). The largest single issuer of securities to which Sava Re is exposed is Germany. As at 31 December 2021, it totalled EUR 28.9 million or 7.9% of financial investments (31 December 2020: EUR 21.8 million; 7.2%).

We assess that in 2021, the Sava Insurance Group companies – by maintaining a large percentage of highly-rated investments, diversification of investments by industry and geography and reducing concentration – managed credit risk well, maintaining it on the same level as in 2020.

Counterparty default risk

The Group is also exposed to credit risk in relation to its reinsurance programme. As a rule, subsidiaries conclude reinsurance contracts directly with the parent company. Exceptionally, if so required by local regulations, they buy reinsurance from providers of assistance services and local reinsurers. In such cases, local reinsurers transfer the risks to Sava Re, thus reducing the effective credit risk exposure relating to reinsurers below the one correctly shown according to accounting rules.

The tables below show the receivables ageing analysis for the Group and Sava Re, including the above-mentioned receivables for reinsurers' shares in claims.

The Group assessed its receivables for impairment. Al lowances were established for receivables that needed to be impaired. Receivables are discussed in greater detail in note 11.

Reinsurance programmes are mostly placed with firstclass reinsurers with an appropriate credit rating (at least "A-" according to S&P Global Ratings for long-term business and at least "BBB+" for short-term business). Thus, nearly 80% of the Sava Insurance Group's credit risk exposure to reinsurers at the end of 2021 (2020: at least 80%) related to reinsurers rated "BBB" or better. When classifying reinsurers by credit rating group, we considered the credit rating of each individual reinsurer, also where the reinsurer is part of a group. Often such reinsurers are unrated subsidiaries, while the parent com - pany has a credit rating. We consider such a treatment conservative, as ordinarily a parent company takes action if a subsidiary gets into trouble.

As at 31 December 2021, the total exposure of the Sava Insurance Group to credit risk relating to reinsurers was EUR 65.5 million (31 December 2020: EUR 47.8 mil lion), of which EUR 57.7 million (31 December 2020: EUR 42.6 million) relates to the reinsurers' share of technical provisions and EUR 7.8 million (31 December 2020: EUR 5.2 million) to receivables for the reinsurers' and co-insurers' shares in claims. At 31 December 2021 the Group's total credit risk exposure relating to rein surers represented 2.5 % of total assets (31 December 2020: 1.9%).

Sava Re assessed its receivables for impairment. Allowances were established for receivables that needed to be impaired. Receivables are discussed in greater detail in note 11.

Reinsurance programmes are mostly placed with first-class reinsurers with an appropriate credit rating (at least "A-" according to Standard & Poor's for long-term business, and at least "BBB+" for short-term business). We consider this risk as low, particularly as the

investment portfolio is adequately diversified. See details in the following table. Thus, at least 80% of the credit risk exposure relating to reinsurers at the end of 2021 (2020: at least 80%) related to reinsurers rated "BBB" or better.

As at 31 December 2021, the total exposure of Sava Re to credit risk relating to reinsurers was EUR 53.1 million (31 December 2020: EUR 35.7 million). Of this, EUR 48.5 million (31 December 2020: EUR 31.9 million) relates to retroceded gross technical provisions (EUR 6.2 million to unearned premiums and EUR 42.3 million to provisions for outstanding claims) and EUR 4.6 million (31 December 2020: EUR 3.7 million) to receivables for reinsurers' shares in claims. The total credit risk exposure of Sava Re to retrocessionaires accounted for 6.4% of total assets in 2021 (31 December 2020: 4.7%).

17.6.4.4 Risk of failure to realise guaranteed returns

The Group is exposed to the risk of failing to achieve the guaranteed return, specifically with investment contracts and with traditional and unit-linked life insurance business.

The risk of failure to realise guaranteed returns also includes the risk of investment contracts relating to the long-term business funds of the voluntary supplementary pension insurance (VSPI) that Sava Pokojninska manages for the benefit of policyholders.

Investment contracts

The Group's investment contracts include a group of life cycle funds called MOJI Skladi Življenjskega Cikla (MY Life-Cycle Funds), relating to supplementary pension business of the company Sava Pokojninska in the accumulation phase. The company manages the group of longterm life-cycle funds MOJI Skladi Življenjskega Cikla, which comprise three funds: MOJ Dinamični Sklad (MY Dynamic Fund), MOJ Uravnoteženi Sklad (MY Balanced Fund), and MOJ Zajamčeni Sklad (MY Guaranteed Fund). Investment contract liabilities are not included in the consolidated technical provisions item, and are, therefore, not included in the presentation of underwriting risk. Investment contract assets are not included in the consolidated financial investments item, and are, therefore, not included in the presentation of investment portfolio risk. In addition, there is a risk of failing to achieve the guaranteed return associated with investment contract assets and liabilities for the long-term business fund with a guaranteed return (MGF).

The members of the supplementary pension insurance scheme thus bear the entire investment risk arising out of the two funds MDF and MBF, while with the MGF they

bear the investment risk above the guaranteed return. The guaranteed return of MGF is 60% of the average annual interest rate on government securities with a maturity of over one year. Liabilities relating to MGF comprise paid in premiums, guaranteed return and amounts in excess of the guaranteed return, provided the company achieved it. For each member, the fund administrator keeps a personal account with accumulating net contributions and assets to exceed the guaranteed return (provisions); for MGF, additionally the guaranteed return is maintained. Liabilities to the members of the MDF and MBF move in line with the value of investments. In years when the return in excess of guaranteed return is realised, liabilities to the members of the MGF for assets in excess of guaranteed levels of assets are increased; if, however, realised return is below the guaranteed level, this part of liabilities decreases until the provision is fully exhausted. The described control of guaranteed return is carried out at the level of individual members' accounts. In the event that individual provisions of any account are not sufficient to cover the guaranteed assets, the company is required to make provisions for the difference, which may exceed 20% of the capital. Any excess must be covered by the company's own funds.

The risk of failing to realise guaranteed returns is managed primarily through appropriate management of policyholder assets and liabilities, an appropriate investment strategy, an adequate level of the company's capital and provisioning. The Group tests its risk exposure arising out of guaranteed return through stress tests and scenarios as part of the own risk and solvency assessment. We estimate that the risk of additional payments made in order to achieve the guaranteed returns remained at the same level in 2021 compared to 2020.

The value of fund assets of the North Macedonian pen sion company Sava Penzisko Društvo (two funds, manda tory and voluntary) is not included in the statement of fi nancial position of the company as these are funds under management (similar treatment as for fund management companies). The role of the North Macedonian pension company is solely to manage the assets; the funds have no guaranteed return. Consequently, the company is not exposed to the risk to which investment contracts are exposed, i.e. failure to realise the guaranteed return.

Traditional and unit-linked life insurance contracts

The Group is exposed to the risk of failure to realise guaranteed returns for its traditional and unit-linked life insurance business with guaranteed returns (e.g. guar anteed fund unit value). Taking into account the realised book return on financial investments and the guaranteed return on the liabilities side in the period 2021, the ef fect of not achieving the guaranteed return was a loss of EUR 203.7 thousand (2020: EUR 249.2 thousand).

We assess that the risk of failure to realise guaranteed returns is high and remained on the 2020 level.

17.6.5 Operational risks

Operational risk is the risk of loss arising from inadequate or failed internal processes, personnel or systems, or from external events.

Operational risks are not among the Group's or Sava Re's most significant risks. Nevertheless, some of them are

material, particularly:

  • risk associated with the operation of the computer and communication system,
  • risk associated with supervision and reporting,
  • risk of personal data breach in companies inside and outside the EU,
  • risk of the IT system being hacked,
  • risk of inappropriate business decisions,
  • risk of incorrect data input and inadequate documen tation,
  • risks associated with clients, products and business practices,
  • risk of damage to physical assets due to natural disas ter or fire,
  • compliance risk (laws and regulations).

Significant Company and Group risks also include cyber risks. It is important for Group companies to lower this risk, as its realisation can lead to a complete interruption of business and extensive financial damage. This is why the Group regularly upgrades the management of and limits exposure to cyber risks.

To assess operational risks in Group companies and at the Group level, qualitative assessment of the probability and financial impact within the scope of the risk register is applied. Through regular risk assessments, the Group

companies obtain insight into the actual level of their exposure to such risks.

Group companies have established processes for identi fying, measuring, monitoring, managing and reporting on such risks for the effective management of operational risk. Operational risk management processes have also been set up at the Group level and are defined in the op erational risk management policy.

The main measures of operational risk management on the individual company and the Group level include:

  • maintaining an effective business processes manage ment system and system of internal controls,
  • awareness-raising and training of all employees on their role in the implementation of the internal control system and management of operational risks,
  • implementing appropriate policies as regards informa tion security,
  • having in place a business continuity plan for all critical processes (in order to minimise the risk of unprepar edness for incidents and external events and any re sulting business interruption),
  • having in place IT-supported processes and controls in the key areas of business of every Group company,
  • awareness-raising and training of all employees.

We estimate that the Company's and the Group's expo sure to operational risks in 2021 was moderate and de creased slightly compared to 2020 as they both adapted to the changed circumstances due to Covid-19 and limit ed the risks accordingly.

17.6.6 Strategic risks

Group companies and the Group are exposed to a variety of internal and external strategic risks that may have a negative impact on the income or capital adequacy.

The primary key strategic risks to which the Group and Sava Re were exposed in 2021 include:

  • risk of inadequate development strategy,
  • risks associated with strategic investments,
  • risk of inadequate strategic focus of the operations of companies,
  • risk of market and economic conditions and competi tion risk,
  • risk of legislative changes,
  • political risks,
  • reputation risk,
  • project risks.

Strategic risks are by nature very diverse, difficult to quantify and heavily dependent on various (including ex ternal) factors.

Group companies' and the Group's strategic risks are assessed qualitatively in the risk register by assessing the frequency and potential financial impact of each event. In addition, key strategic risks are evaluated in the EUbased Group (re)insurance companies, using qualitative analysis of various scenarios. Based on both analyses combined, an overview is obtained of the extent and change in the exposure to this type of risk.

Group companies mitigate individual strategic risks main ly through preventive measures, and individual companies have in place various processes that ensure that they can properly identify, measure, monitor, manage, control and report strategic risks, thus ensuring their effective man agement. In addition to the competent organisational units in Group companies, strategic risks are identified and managed by management bodies, risk management committees, risk management functions and the key functions of the risk management system. Strategic risks are additionally identified by the Group's risk manage ment committee. Strategic risks are also managed by continually monitoring the realisation of short- and longterm goals of Group companies, and by monitoring regulatory changes in the pipeline and market developments.

The Group is aware that its reputation is important in realising its business goals and in order to achieve its stra tegic plans in the long term. Group companies have taken steps aimed at mitigating reputation risk, such as setting up fit and proper procedures applicable to key employ ees, ensuring systematic operations of their respective compliance functions, having in place business continuity plans, developing stress tests and scenarios, and planning actions and responses in the case such risks materialise. Toward ensuring the Group's good reputation, each and every employee is responsible for improving the quality of services delivered and overall customer satisfaction.

We estimate that the Group's exposure to strategic risks in 2021 was moderate, and remains unchanged relative to 2020 due to the uncertain macroeconomic environment and the situation related to Covid-19.

The decrease in goodwill in 2020 arose from the impairment of Sava Pokojninska. Goodwill arisen on the acquisition of Sava Infond was partly allocated, based on the assessed value of contractual customer relationships, to contractual relationships with customers, which increased the balance of other intangible assets.

Other intangible assets in the Group comprise estimated values of customer lists (EUR 8.9 million) and contractual customer relationships (EUR 5.7 million).

Assets in progress relate to new IT solutions acquired, in particular to prepare for the implementation of the new accounting standard IFRS 17 and 9, and to support the core business of Zavarovalnica Sava and Sava Re.

There was no reduction in goodwill in 2021. The 2020 decline in the goodwill of Sava Pokojninska relates to impairment, whereas the decline in the goodwill in Sava Infond relates to a reclassification to other intangible assets.

Goodwill impairment testing

In the impairment testing of goodwill arising out of the acquired companies listed at the beginning of this section, the recoverable amount of each cash-generating

unit as at 31 December 2021 in all companies exceeded its carrying amount including goodwill belonging to the unit. The following assumptions were used to calculate the recoverable amount:

* Revenue = net premiums earned for insurance companies, operating revenue for other companies. ** Profit = net profit for all except TBS; after tax EBITDA for TBS.

Sensitivity analysis for estimation parameters

A sensitivity analysis was carried out for the difference between the estimated recoverable amount and the carrying amount for different long-term growth rates, discount rates and annual achievement of planned profit over all projection horizons. It was found that in no case of deviation (long-term growth rates change of 1 p.p., discount rates change of 1 p.p. or profit change of 10%) was the estimated recoverable amount lower than the carrying amount.

Sensitivity analysis for Covid business scenarios

In 2021, we did not perform sensitivity analyses for scenarios to assess Covid-19-related impacts on operations. This is because the Group performed well despite the ongoing pandemic. Operating revenue grew by 7.6% and net profit by 35.1%. The Group's net profit for 2021 also exceeded the pre-Covid profit of 2019. Improvements were also seen in net incurred loss ratios of the reinsurance company and the non-life insurers. Economic conditions have improved in all countries where the Group is present and economic growth is expected to continue in the coming years. Therefore, the Group companies do not expect any negative impacts from Covid in the future and have prepared their business plans for 2022–2024 accordingly.

The circumstances linked to Covid-19 also affected lease payments in some cases. IASB published a document on 10 April 2020, explaining the accounting impacts in ac cordance with IFRS 16. The Sava Insurance Group consid ered whether to treat changes in rent payments as lease modifications, or as a change from fixed to variable rent, and reviewed lease contracts and terms. The standard de fines lease modification as a change in the scope of a lease, or the consideration for a lease. If the rent is changed due to government measures, or due to partial or total forgive ness of lease payments, and this is specified in contracts, the change does not constitute a change in the scope of the lease, and fixed rent is changed into variable. The les see applies the clause from the standard under which the effect should be recognised as a gain or loss.

There are no limitations or requirements associated with leases on the Company or the Group.

When reviewing all lease contracts, the company deter mined these do not contain force majeure clauses, and consequently treated changes as lease modifications. The Sava Insurance Group made lease modifications in four companies; this had a EUR 217,434 effect on right-of-use assets (2020: EUR 203,521).

302 Sava Insurance Groupand Sava reporting date 16 Financial statements CONTENTS

In 2021, the Group generated income of EUR 1.3 million by leasing out its investment property (2020: EUR 1.2 mil lion). Maintenance costs associated with investment prop erty are either included in the rent or charged to the lessee. Costs covered by the Group in 2021 totalled EUR 85,238 (2020: EUR 122,638). We estimate that the Group will continue to lease its investment property in 2022 and over the next five-year period in a similar scope as in 2021 and generate a similar amount of lease income.

In 2021, the Group generated income of EUR 784,325 by leasing out its investment property (2020: EUR 783,238). Maintenance costs associated with investment property are either included in rent or charged to the lessees in a pro portionate amount. These recovered costs amounted to EUR 56,408 in 2021 (2020: EUR 72,555).

The investment properties are unencumbered by any third-party rights.

The fair values of investment property are resented in note 29 "Fair values of assets and liabilities".

We have examined the investment property assets owned by the Group and the Company and find that the Covid-19 epidemic had no impact on operations. The lessees do not operate in business sectors hit by the Covid-19 epidemic.

The Sava Insurance Group held 3.3% of financial investments constituting sub ordinated instruments for the issuer (31 December 2020: 1.4%). The total val ue of subordinated investments stood at EUR 47.9 million (31 December 2020: EUR 19.6 million).

Sava Re held 1.1% of financial investments that constitute subordinated instruments for the issuer (31 December 2020: 1.2%). The total value of subordinated invest ments stood at EUR 7.4 million (31 De cember 2020: EUR 7.6 million).

A portion of subordinated assets invested in banks is recognised as debt instruments in the category measured at amortised cost, while the other part is recognised in the cat egory measured through profit or loss.

We reviewed the Company's and Group's financial investments and determined that the impact of the Covid-19 epidemic did not materially decrease their fair value or create the need to impair the investments. The Company and Group hold a small portion of loans granted in their portfolio. The conditions and the ability to repay the loans given did not deteriorate in any of the cases due to the impact of the Cov id-19 epidemic, while minor effects were recorded at the Group level, mainly as extensions of repayment terms for loans given.

The pension company eliminates inter-company transactions of the joint balance sheet; therefore, liabilities to pension policyholders exceed investment contract liabilities. Internal transactions between the group of My-Lifecycle long-term business funds and the pension company were eliminated in the balance sheet. These include entry charges and management fees for the current month, which may be recognised upon conversion or when credited to personal accounts.

Liabilities in the balance sheet of the long-term liability fund of the voluntary supplementary pension insurance are mostly long-term. These are liabilities relating to the voluntary supplementary pension life liability fund for premiums paid, guaranteed return and the return in excess of guaranteed return (provisions).

The table shows income and expenses relating to investment contracts in 2021.

Profit or loss realised from investment contract assets is fully recognised in investment contract liabilities.

The weighted number of shares takes into account the annual average calculated on the basis of monthly averages of ordinary shares less the number of own shares. The weighted average number of shares outstanding in the financial period was 15,497,696 and the same as in 2020. The parent does not have potentially dilutive capital instruments, which is why basic earnings per share equal diluted earnings per share.

Retained earnings as at 31 December 2021 grew by EUR 26.4 million from 31 December 2020 (2020: decrease of EUR 11.0 million), reflecting the covering of a loss.

In 2021, the Company paid out EUR 13,173,042 in dividends. In 2020, it did not pay any dividends in line with the recommendation of the Slovenian Insurance Supervision Agency due to potential negative impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic on operations. For more information, see section 3.2 "General information on the share".

The distributable profit for 2021 totals EUR 37.1 million (2020: EUR 23.8 million).

The Group's gross technical provisions increased by 0.3%, or EUR 4.2 million, in 2021 (2020: EUR 299.4 million reflecting an acquisition):

  • Gross unearned premiums decreased by 1.7%, chiefly because most FoS business relating to non-life insurance was discontinued.
  • Gross claims provisions grew by 5.7%, which largely relates to the increase in accepted reinsurance business on account of catastrophic events in western Europe in 2021.
B

• Mathematical provisions (technical provisions for life business) declined by 4.7% because of maturing life insurance portfolios of the Slovenian insurers, slightly

offset by the growth seen in the other companies.

  • The provision for bonuses, rebates and cancellations is a small part of technical provisions; it mainly grew in Slovenian non-life insurance business.
  • The provision for unexpired risks (shown under the other gross technical provisions item) decreased by 16.7% as a result of the discontinuation of unprofitable business of the Slovenian members of the Group (FoS business, accepted marine reinsurance).

• The provision for the benefit of life insurance policyholders who bear the investment risk increased by 28.0%, mainly due to portfolio growth, but also noteworthy are the writing of single-premium policies and the increase in the value of assets, which exceeded payments for maturities, claims and surrenders.

Sava Re's gross technical provisions increased by 11.4%, or EUR 33.9 million, year on year. Unearned premiums decreased by EUR 4.6 million, mainly reflecting the decline experienced by Group's cedants (FoS business). The claims provision grew by 16.4%, or EUR 39.3 million with most of the increase (EUR 35.9 million) relating to the increase in the business of non-Group cedants attributable to natural catastrophic events in western Europe in 2021.

Financial statements of the Re with notes 15 Auditor'sreport

In 2021, the method of classifying financial assets into levels based on criteria for pricing in the principal mar ket was updated. If no CBBT price is available for a debt security in the OTC market, the BVAL price is used. An additional criterion to be applied is the BVAL score and the number of direct observations. The BVAL score is the basis for assessing the quality of the BVAL price, with a higher score indicating a better price quality in the market. The definition of an active market has also been updated: for quoted investments, a market is regarded as active if the investment is traded for at least half of the trading days.

As at 31 December 2021, a large proportion of the debt securities portfolio is valued at the CBBT bid price, which represents the unadjusted quoted price and thus meets the criteria for a tier 1 classification. Mutual funds and listed equity securities that meet the criteria of an ac tive market, as well as debt securities valued at BVAL bid prices that meet the relevant price quality criteria, are also classified into this level.

As at 31 December 2021, level 1 investments represented 78.1% (31 December 2020: 74.6%) of financial invest ments measured at fair value.

In 2021, the proportion of OTC market assets measured using closing CBBT bid prices increased compared to year-end 2020. As at 31 December 2021, level 1 invest ments represented 84.28% (31 December 2020: 77.8%) of financial investments measured at fair value.

Debt securities for which no CBBT bid price exists at the classification date, but a BVAL bid price of lower quality is available, are classified into Level 2. We classify into the same Level investments valued based on an internal model that uses directly and indirectly observable market inputs, such as the risk-free interest rate curve, yield of similar financial instruments, and credit and liquidity risk premiums. Equity securities valued using stock exchange prices that meet the criteria for a non-functioning mar ket are also classified into this Level.

The Company classifies into Level 3 unquoted shares valued at cost, loans granted valued at amortised cost and investments in alternative funds, such as real-estate funds, infrastructure funds, private debt funds, private equity funds and such like. There are no market prices available for such investments; therefore, valuation based on available market data is not possible.

The Sava Insurance Group classifies as level-3 invest ments its investments in alternative funds, such as re al-estate funds, infrastructure funds, private debt funds, private equity funds and similar. Alternative funds are valued by fund managers in the form of fund unit values or as the value of invested assets, being the best approx imation of fair value. Assets are valued based on material non-public information on assets invested in funds. The Company has only limited access to input data as used by fund managers, which is why the Group does not carry out own valuations nor is it possible for the Group to run sensitivity analyses.

In order to value fund assets, managers of such funds generally use methods that comply with International Private Equity and Venture Capital Valuation standards, such as discounting of cash flows and the multiples meth od.

Valuation techniques for all items described above are defined in accounting policies. The method for invest ment property is described in section 17.4.12 "Investment property", for financial investments in subsidiaries and associates in section 17.4.13 "Financial investments in subsidiaries and associates", and for financial investments in section 17.4.14 "Financial investments and assets held for the benefit of policyholders who bear the investment risk".

In 2021, the Group had a net investment income of EUR 67.7 million from the change in fair val ue of investments in mutual funds selected by policyholders classified in the FVTPL catego ry (31 December 2020: EUR 22.4 million);
  • investments supporting the liabilities of unitlinked life business for which the insurer provides guaranteed unit values. Income and expenses from these types of investments are treated as other non-life and life insurance in vestments. Interest income accounts for the largest share of the net investment income of these investments (31 December 2021: EUR 0.5 million; 31 December 2020: EUR 0.6 million) and gains on sales (31 December 2021: EUR 0.4 million; 31 December 2020; EUR 0.1 million).

In December 2016, claims were filed against the issuing banks of the cancelled subordinated financial instruments held by the Group. Guarantees issued mostly represent potential liabilities arising from investments in alternative funds. At the time of signing the subscription, which represents a commitment to make future payments into the alternative fund, the Company records the amount of the commitment under off-balance sheet items, which are then decreased at every capita call-up by the amount called up.

In order to mitigate the impact of the epidemic, the members of the supervisory board and the external members of supervisory board committees waived 30.0% of the remuneration they receive on account of their membership of the Company's bodies from March to May 2020. The example was followed by the members of the supervisory boards and external members of supervisory board committees of the other Slovenian members of the Sava Insurance Group who are remunerated for performing their roles.

Average gross salary in Group companies

The average gross salary of Group companies is calculated as the sum of all personnel costs of Group companies (income statement item "personnel costs") multiplied by the number of months in operation, which is then divided by the average number of all employees based on the number of hours worked of all Group companies.

• The Sava Insurance Group has examined the impact of the war in Ukraine on its operations and estimates that, due to its small volume of business with and low investment exposure to Russia and Ukraine, the changed circumstances will not have a material di rect impact on its business results. The Sava Insurance Group (through Sava Re) has written reinsurance con tracts with Russian and Ukrainian partners the annual premium volume of which accounts for only 0.5% of the Group's total planned operating revenue for 2022. All contracts contain so-called sanctions clauses. In the event of sanctions imposed by the European Un ion or the United Nations, such clauses limit the ob ligations of Sava Re under relevant contracts if such obligations are contrary to the applicable sanctions. In addition, the reinsurance contracts written exclude coverage related to war. The Group's credit and cur rency exposure to Russia, Ukraine and Belarus as at 31 December 2021 accounted for just 0.24% of the Group's financial investments. Most of this exposure arises from cash and cash equivalents, and rouble-de nominated investments, which are matched to liabili ties denominated in the same currency. Only a small part, 0.04%, is invested in securities of Russian issu ers, and so the credit risk is also negligible. The Group is aware of the potentially adverse indirect effects on the macroeconomic environment and, consequently, on the Group's operations, which cannot yet be prop erly assessed at this stage. Some potential indirect im pacts are presented in sensitivity analyses in the notes to the financial statements sections 17.6.4.1.1 "Interest rate risk" and 17.6.4.1.3 "Equity risk".
