3. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE
3.1   This condensed interim financial information (here-in-after referred to as "financial information") has been prepared in
      accordance with the accounting and reporting standards as applicable in Pakistan for interim financial reporting. The
      accounting and reporting standards as applicable in Pakistan for interim financial reporting comprise of:
        -   International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB)
            as are notified under the Companies Act, 2017;
        -   Islamic Financial Accounting Standards (IFAS) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Pakistan as are
            notified under the Companies Act, 2017;
        -   Provisions of and directives issued under the Banking Companies Ordinance, 1962 and the Companies Act, 2017;
            and
        -   Directives issued by the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) and the Securities Exchange Commission of Pakistan
            (SECP).
      Whenever the requirements of the Banking Companies Ordinance, 1962, the Companies Act, 2017 or the directives
      issued by the SBP and the SECP differ with the requirements of IFRS or IFAS, the requirements of the Banking
      Companies Ordinance, 1962, the Companies Act, 2017 and the said directives, shall prevail.
                                                                                    8                                                              Meezan Bank Limited
                                                                                                                            Unconsolidated Financial Information
3.2.1     The financial risk management objectives and policies adopted by the Bank are consistent with those disclosed in the unconsolidated financial statements for
          the year ended December 31, 2023.
3.2.2     The significant accounting policies and methods of computation adopted in the preparation of this condensed interim financial information are consistent with
          those applied in the preparation of the audited annual financial statements of the Bank for the year ended December 31, 2023 except as mentioned below:
3.2.2.1 Adoption of new forms for the preparation of condensed interim financial information
          The SBP, vide its BPRD Circular No. 02 dated February 09, 2023 and BPRD Circular No. 07 dated April 13, 2023, issued the revised forms for the preparation
          of the annual / interim financial information of the banks which are applicable for quarterly / half yearly periods beginning on or after January 01, 2024
          (previously January 01, 2023). The implementation of the revised forms has resulted in certain changes to the presentation and disclosures of various
          elements of the condensed interim financial information. Right of use assets and corresponding lease liability are now presented separately on the face of
          Statement of financial position. Previously they were presented under Property and Equipment (previously titled Fixed Assets) and Other Liabilites
          respectively. As a result of the this change, the Property and Equipment of the Bank decreased by Rs 19,549 million and Rs 19,572 million as of March 31,
          2024 and December 31, 2023 respectively. Further, Other liabilities of the Bank decreased by Rs 22,581 million and Rs 22,094 as of March 31, 2024 and
          December 31, 2023 respectively.
          The Bank has adopted the above changes in the presentation and made additional disclosures to the extent applicable to its operations and corresponding
          figures have been rearranged / reclassified to correspond to current year’s presentation (Note 40).
3.2.2.2   Amendments to approved accounting standards that are effective in the current period
          There are certain new and amended standards that became effective during the period (enumerated in note 3.6 to the annual financial statement of the Bank).
          However, such standards did not have any significant effect on this condensed interim unconsolidated financial information except IFRS 9 (Financial
          Instruments), the impact of which is disclosed under Note 3.3:
          IFRS 9 brings fundamental changes to the accounting for financial assets and to certain aspects of accounting for financial liabilities. To determine appropriate
          classification and measurement category, IFRS 9 requires all financial assets, except equity instruments to be assessed based on combination of the entity's
          business model for managing the assets and the instruments' contractual cash flow characteristics. The adoption of IFRS 9 has also fundamentally changed
          the impairment method of financial assets with a forward-looking Expected Credit Losses (ECL) approach.
3.3.1     Classification
          Under IFRS 9, existing categories of financial assets: Held for trading (HFT), Available for Sale (AFS) and Held to maturity (HTM) have been replaced by:
          Under IFRS 9, the accounting for financial liabilities remains largely the same as before adoption of IFRS 9 and thus all financial liabilities are being carried at
          Amortized cost. Financial liabilities can also be designated at FVTPL where gains or losses arising from entity's own credit rating risk relating to are required to
          be presented in other comprehensive income with no reclassification to profit or loss account. The Bank does not have any financial liability measured at
          FVTPL
The Bank determines its business model at the level that best reflects how it manages groups of financial assets to achieve its business objective.
          The Bank's business model is not assessed on an instrument-by-instrument basis, but at a higher level of aggregated portfolios and is based on observable
          factors such as:
               - the objectives for the portfolio, in particular, whether management's strategy focuses on earning contractual revenue, maintaining a particular yield
                 profile, matching the duration of the financial assets to the duration of the liabilities that are funding those assets or realizing cash flows through the sale
                 of the assets;
               - How the performance of the business model and the financial assets held within that business model are evaluated and reported to the entity's key
                 management personnel;
               - The risks that affect the performance of the business model (and the financial assets held within that business model) and, in particular, the way those
                 risks are managed; and
               - The expected frequency, value and timing of sales are also important aspects of the Bank’s assessment. However, information about sales activity is
                 not considered in isolation, but as part of an overall assessment of how the Bank's stated objective for managing the financial assets is achieved and
                 how cash flows are realized.
          The business model assessment is based on reasonably expected scenarios without taking 'worst case' or 'stress case’ scenarios into account. If cash flows
          after initial recognition are realised in a way that is different from the Bank's original expectations, the Bank does not change the classification of the remaining
          financial assets held in that business model, but incorporates such information when assessing newly originated or newly purchased financial assets going
          forward.
                                                                                      9                                                                           Meezan Bank Limited
                                                                                                                                     Unconsolidated Financial Information
Eventually, the financial assets fall under either of the following three business models:
                  i) Hold to Collect (HTC) Business Model: Holding assets in order to collect contractual cash flows
                 ii) Hold to Collect and Sell (HTC&S) Business Model: Collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets
                iii) Other Business Models: Resulting in classification of financial assets as FVTPL
3.3.1.2 Assessments whether contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and profit (SPPI)
          As a second step of its classification process the Bank assesses the contractual terms of financial assets to identify whether they meet the SPPI test.
          ‘Principal’ for the purpose of this test is defined as the fair value of the financial asset at initial recognition and may change over the life of the financial asset
          (for example, if there are repayments of principal or amortisation of the premium/discount). The most significant elements of profit within a financing
          arrangement are typically the consideration for the time value of money and credit risk. To make the SPPI assessment, the Bank applies judgement and
          considers relevant factors such as the currency in which the financial asset is denominated, and the period for which the profit rate is set. In contrast,
          contractual terms that introduce a more than de minimise exposure to risks or volatility in the contractual cash flows that are unrelated to a basic financing
          arrangement do not give rise to contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and profit on the amount outstanding. In such cases, the financial
          asset is required to be measured at FVTPL.
          -        the assets are held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and
          -        the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and profit on the principal
                   amount outstanding.
          The Bank’s business model for these financial assets can still be HTC even when sales of these financial assets occur. However, if more than an infrequent
          number of sales or sale(s) of significant value are/is made, the Bank assess whether and how the sales are consistent with the HTC objective. This
          assessment include the reason(s) for the sales, the expected frequency of sales, and whether the assets that are sold are held for an extended period of time
          relative to their contractual maturities.
Aforementioned financial assets are measured at FVOCI only if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:
          -        the asset are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and
          -        the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and profit on the principal
                   amount outstanding.
Aforementioned financial assets if held for trading purposes are classified as measured at FVTPL.
          In addition, on initial recognition, the Bank may irrevocably designate a financial asset that otherwise meets the requirements to be measured at amortised
          cost or at FVOCI as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise.
          The application of these policies also resulted in reclassifications and consequent remeasurements of certain amount of investments in GoP ijarah sukuk held
          under Available for Sale portfolio as of December 31, 2023 based on business model. Moreover, the Bank's investment in Sub-ordinated sukuk issued by
          other Banks under Available for Sale portfolio as of December 31, 2023 have been reclassified as FVTPL since they do not pass the SPPI criteria due to
          equity conversion features embedded in the terms of these sukuk. The following table reconciles their carrying amounts as reported on December 31, 2023 to
          the carrying amounts under IFRS 9 on transition to IFRS 9 on January 01, 2023:

          IFRS 9 has eliminated impairment assessment requirements for investments in equity instruments. Accordingly the Bank has reversed impairment of Rs 2,562

          remeasurements.

          Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the entity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Regular way purchases
          and sales of financial assets are recognized on trade date, the date on which the Bank purchase or sell the asset. Other financial assets and liabilities like
          Islamic financing and related assets, due from financial institutions, deposits etc. are recognized when funds are transferred to the customers’ account or
          financial institutions or as per underlying Shariah mode. However, for cases, where funds are transferred on deferred payment basis, recognition is done when
          underlying asset is purchased. The Bank will recognize due to customer and financial institution balances when these funds reach the Bank.
          Amortized Cost
          Financial assets and liabilities under Amortized Cost cateogy are initially recognized at fair value adjusted for directly attributable transaction cost. They are
          subsequently measured at Amortized Cost. An expected credit loss allowance (ECL) is recognized for financial assets in profit or loss. Rental / profit income /
          expense on these assets / liabilities are recognized in profit or loss account. On derecognition of these financial assets and liabilities, capital gain / loss will be
          recognized in profit or loss account.
Bank's revenue recongition policy is consisent with the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023
3.3.1.5 Derecognition
          Financial assets
          The Bank derecognises a financial asset when:
              - the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire; or
              - it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which either:
                 - substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred; or
                 - the Bank neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and it does not retain control of the financial asset.
          The Bank enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognised in its statement of financial position, but retains either all or substantially all of the
          risks and rewards of the transferred assets. In these cases, the transferred assets are not derecognised (Note 3.3.1.6).
          Financial liabilities
          The Bank derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled, or expire. The Bank also derecognises a financial
          liability when its terms are modified and the cash flows of the modified liability are substantially different, in which case a new financial liability based on the
          modified terms is recognised at fair value.
          On derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount extinguished and the consideration paid (including any non-cash assets
          transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognised in profit or loss.
3.3.1.6 Modification
          The Bank sometimes renegotiates or otherwise modifies the contractual cash flows of financing to customers. When the contractual cash flows of a financial
          asset are renegotiated or otherwise modified and the renegotiation or modification does not result in the derecognition of that financial asset in accordance
          with IFRS 9, the Bank recalculate the gross carrying amount of the financial asset and shall recognise a modification gain or loss in profit or loss. The gross
          carrying amount of the financial asset shall be recalculated as the present value of the renegotiated or modified contractual cash flows that are discounted at
          the financial asset’s original effective profit rate (or credit-adjusted effective profit rate for purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets). Any costs or
          fees incurred adjust the carrying amount of the modified financial asset and are amortised over the remaining term of the modified financial asset.
                                                                               11                                                             Meezan Bank Limited
                                                                                                                       Unconsolidated Financial Information
        -       An unbiased and probability-weighted amount that is determined by evaluating a range of possible outcomes;
        -       The time value of money; and
        -       Reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and
                forecasts of future economic conditions.
        The ECL allowance is based on the credit losses expected to arise over the life of the asset (the lifetime expected credit loss or LTECL), unless there has
        been no significant increase in credit risk since origination, in which case, the allowance is based on the 12 months’ expected credit loss (12mECL) as outlined
        below.
        The 12mECL is the portion of LTECLs that represent the ECLs that result from default events on a financial instrument that are possible within the 12 months
        after the reporting date. Both LTECLs and 12mECLs are calculated at individual customer level.
        The Bank has established a policy to perform an assessment, at the end of each reporting period, of whether a financial instrument’s credit risk has increased
        significantly since initial recognition, by considering the change in the risk of default occurring over the remaining life of the financial instrument. The Bank
        considers an exposure to have significantly increased in credit risk when there is considerable deterioration in the internal rating grade for subject customer.
        The Bank also applies a secondary qualitative method for triggering a significant increase in credit risk for an asset, such as moving a customer/facility to the
        watch list, or the account becoming forborne. Regardless of the change in credit grades, generally, the Bank considers that there has been a significant
        increase in credit risk when contractual payments are more than 60 days past due. However, for certain portfolios, the Bank has rebutted 60 DPD presumption
        based on behavioural analysis of its borrowers. When estimating ECLs on a collective basis for a group of similar assets , the Bank applies the similar
        principles for assessing whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition.
Based on the above process, the Bank groups its financial instruments into Stage 1, Stage 2,Stage 3 and POCI, as described below:
        Stage 1:                        When financial instruments are first recognised, the Bank recognises an allowance based on 12mECLs. Stage 1 financial
                                        instruments also include facilities where the credit risk has improved and they have been reclassified from Stage 2. The
                                        12mECL is calculated as the portion of LTECLs that represent the ECLs that result from default events on a financial
                                        instrument that are possible within the 12 months after the reporting date. The Bank calculates the 12mECL allowance based
                                        on the expectation of a default occurring in the 12 months following the reporting date. These expected 12-month default
                                        probabilities are applied to a forecast EAD and multiplied by the expected LGD and discounted by an approximation to the
                                        original EIR. This calculation is made for all the scenarios.
        Stage 2:                        When a financial instrument has shown a significant increase in credit risk since origination, the Bank records an allowance for
                                        the LTECLs. Stage 2 also include facilities, where the credit risk has improved and the instrument has been reclassified from
                                        Stage 3. The mechanics are similar to those explained above, including the use of multiple scenarios, but PDs are applied over
                                        the lifetime of the instrument. The expected cash shortfalls are discounted by an approximation to the original EIR.
        Stage 3:                        For financial instruments considered credit-impaired, the Bank recognises the lifetime expected credit losses for these
                                        instruments. The Bank uses a PD of 100% and LGD as computed for each portfolio or as prescribed by the SBP under the
                                        prudential regulations which ever is higher.
        POCI:                           Purchased or originated credit impaired (POCI) assets are financial assets that are credit impaired on initial recognition. POCI
                                        assets are recorded at fair value at original recognition and profit / rental is subsequently recognised based on a credit-adjusted
                                        EIR. ECLs are only recognised or released to the extent that there is a subsequent change in the expected credit losses.
        Undrawn financing               When estimating LTECLs for undrawn financings commitments, the Bank estimates the expected portion of the financings
        commitments                     commitment that will be drawn down over its expected life. The ECL is then based on the present value of the expected
                                        shortfalls in cash flows if the financings is drawn down, based on a probability-weighting of the three scenarios. The expected
                                        cash shortfalls are discounted at an approximation to the expected EIR on the financings.
                                        For revolving facilities that include both a financings and an undrawn commitment, ECLs are calculated and presented together
                                        with the financings. For financings commitments and letters of credit, the ECL is recognised within Provisions.
        Guarantee and letters of        The Bank estimates ECLs based on the present value of the expected payments to reimburse the holder for a credit loss that it
        credit contracts                incurs. The shortfalls are discounted by the risk-adjusted discount rate relevant to the exposure. The calculation is made using
                                        a probability-weighting of the three scenarios. The ECLs related to guarantee and letter of credit contracts are recognised
                                        within Other liabilities.
        For receivables on account of refundable security deposits; settlement of transactions (including those originated from Alternative Distribution Channels);
        services rendered to customers (including related parties) etc., the Bank applies the simplified approach permitted by IFRS 9, which requires expected lifetime
        losses to be recognized from the initial recognition of the these receivables.
                                                                                 12                                                             Meezan Bank Limited
                                                                                                                         Unconsolidated Financial Information
The Bank calculates ECLs based on a three probability-weighted scenarios to measure the expected cash
        The mechanics of the ECL calculations are outlined below and the key elements are, as follows:
        PD      The Probability of Default is an estimate of the likelihood of default over a given time horizon. A default may only happen at a certain time over the
                assessed period, if the facility has not been previously derecognised and is still in the portfolio. PD is estimated based on transitioning among credit
                states. Credit states are defined by rating classes and are based on the Bank’s internal risk ratings (i.e. from 1 to 12). Through the yearly review of the
                non-consumer portfolio, the Bank has drawn a yearly transition matrix of ratings to compute a count based PD over the one year horizon for the past 7
                years. PDs for Non rated portfolios are calculated based on Days Past Due (DPD) bucket level for each segment separately. Where practical, they also
                build on information from External Rating Agencies. PDs are then adjusted for IFRS 9 ECL calculations to incorporate forward looking information.
        EAD The Exposure at Default is an estimate of the exposure at a future default date, taking into account expected changes in the exposure after the
            reporting date, including repayments of principal and profit, whether scheduled by contract or otherwise, expected drawdowns on committed facilities,
            and accrued interest from missed payments. The maximum period for which the credit losses are determined is the contractual life of a financial
            instrument unless the Bank has the legal right to call it earlier. The Bank’s product offering includes a variety of corporate and retail facilities, in which
            the Bank has the right to cancel and/or reduce the facilities with one day’s notice. However, in case of revolving facilities, the Bank does not limit its
            exposure to credit losses to the contractual notice period, but, instead calculates ECL over a period that reflects the Bank’s expectations of the
            customer behaviour, its likelihood of default and the Bank’s future risk mitigation procedures, which could include reducing or cancelling the facilities.
        LGD The Loss Given Default is an estimate of the loss arising in the case where a default occurs at a given time. It is based on the difference between the
            contractual cash flows due and those that the lender would expect to receive, including from the realisation of any collateral. It is usually expressed as a
            percentage of the EAD.
        The discount rate used to discount the ECLs is based on the effective profit rate that is expected to be charged over the expected period of exposure to the
        facilities. In the absence of computation of the effective profit rate (at reporting date), the Bank uses an approximation e.g. contractual rate (at reporting date).
        When estimating the ECLs, the Bank considers three scenarios (a base case, an upside, a downside). Each of these is associated with different PDs. When
        relevant, the assessment of multiple scenarios also incorporates how defaulted financing are expected to be recovered, including the probability that the loans
        will cure and the value of collateral or the amount that might be received for selling the asset.
        The Bank's management has only considered cash, liquid Securities, gold, and Government of Pakistan guarantees as eligible collaterals in the LGD
        calculation. All of these collaterals have a 0% Haircut other than Equity securities where haircut of 15% is applied.
The customer is more than 90 days past due on its contractual payments.except incase of agriculture, project infrastructure and housing financing.
Further the following qualitative criteria has been determined for assessment of default
        -       The Bank considers that the obligor is unlikely to pay its credit obligations in full, without recourse by the Bank to actions such as realising security (if
                held).
        -       The Bank makes a charge-off or account-specific provision resulting from a perceived decline in credit quality subsequent to the Bank taking on the
                exposure.
        -       The Bank consents to a distressed restructuring of the credit obligation where this is likely to result in a diminished financial obligation caused by the
                material forgiveness, or postponement, of principal, interest or (where relevant) fees.
        -       The obligor has sought or has been placed in bankruptcy or similar protection where this would avoid or delay repayment of the credit obligation to the
                industry group.

21.     OTHER LIABILITIES
23.1 Guarantees:
         The Income Tax Department amended the deemed assessment orders of the Bank for prior years including the tax
         year 2022. The additions / disallowances were mainly due to allocation of expenses relating to dividends and capital
         gain, allowability of provision against loans and advances, provision against investments and provision against other
         assets. In the amended order for tax year 2015, additional issues with respect to the taxability of gain on bargain
         purchase and non-adjustment of loss pertaining to HSBC Bank Middle East – Pakistan Branches have also been
         raised. The Bank has obtained stay order from the High Court of Sindh against the demands raised through the
         amended order for the tax year 2015. Both the Bank and the department have filed appeals with the Appellate
         Authorities in respect of the aforementioned matters.
         The management of the Bank, in consultation with its tax advisors, is confident that the decision in respect of the above
         matters would be in Bank’s favour and accordingly no provision has been made in these unconsolidated financial
         statements with respect thereto. The additional tax liability in respect of gain on bargain purchase and non-adjustment
         of loss pertaining to HSBC Bank Middle East – Pakistan Branches is Rs 1,096 million and Rs 706 million respectively.
                                                                   32

32.1   Through Finance Act 2022, the effective tax rate on banking companies has been increased and consequently from the
       year 2022, tax rates has been enhanced to 49% (inclusive of 10% Super Tax) from 43% in 2021 (inclusive of 4% Super
       Tax). Accordingly, the Bank has recognised super tax charge of Rs 5,443 million (Q1 2023: Rs 1,141 million) in the current
       quarter based on taxable income for the quarter.
       The fair value of quoted securities other than those classified as Amortized cost, is based on quoted market price. Quoted
       securities classified as amortized cost are carried at cost. The fair value of unquoted equity securities, other than investments
       in associates and subsidiaries, is determined on the basis of an appropriate valuation model or alternatively break-up value of
       these investments as per their latest available audited financial statements.
       The fair value of unquoted debt securities, fixed term loans, other assets, other liabilities, fixed term deposits and borrowings
       cannot be calculated with sufficient reliability due to the absence of a current and active market for these assets and liabilities
       and reliable data regarding market rates for similar instruments.
       The Bank measures fair values using the following fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in
       making the measurements:
Level 1: Fair value measurements using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
       Level 2: Fair value measurements using inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the
       asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
       Level 3: Fair value measurements using input for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (i.e.
       unobservable inputs).
       Non-banking assets acquired in satisfactions of claims are carried at revalued amounts (level 3 measurement) determined by
       professional valuers based on their assessment of the market values.
                                                                     The valuation has been determined through closing rates of Pakistan Stock

       The Bank's policy is to recognise transfers into and out of the different fair value hierarchy levels at the date the event or
       change in circumstances that caused the transfer occurred.
       Fair value of Islamic financing and related assets, unquoted sukuk, other assets, other liabilities and fixed term deposits and
       other accounts and due to financial institutions cannot be calculated with sufficient reliability due to absence of current and
       active market for such assets and liabilities and reliable data regarding market rates for similar instruments. The provision for
       impairment of Islamic financing and related assets has been made in accordance with the Bank’s accounting policy as stated
       in note 6.3.2 to the 2023 annual financial statements..
       In the opinion of the management, the fair value of the remaining financial assets and liabilities are not significantly different
       from their carrying values since these assets and liabilities are short term in nature or in the case of financings and deposits
       are frequently repriced.
