32.5 Fair value of financial assets and liabilities not carried at fair value
The following describes the methodologies & assumptions used to determine fair values for those financial instruments
which are not already recorded at fair value in the financial statements:
Assets for which fair value approximates carrying value
For financial assets and financial liabilities that have a short term maturity (less than three months) it is assumed
that the carrying amounts approximate their fair value. This assumption is also applied to demand deposits, and
savings accounts which do not have a specific maturity.
Fixed rate financial instruments
The fair value of fixed rate financial assets and liabilities carried at amortised cost are estimated by comparing
market interest rates when they were first recognised with current market rates for similar financial instruments.
The estimated fair value of fixed interest bearing deposits is based on discounted cash flows using prevailing
money–market interest rates for debts with similar credit risk and maturity. For quoted debt issued, the fair values
are determined based on quoted market prices. For notes issued where quoted market prices are not available, a
discounted cash flow model is used based on a current interest rate yield curve appropriate for the remaining term
to maturity and credit spreads. For other variable rate instruments, an adjustment is also made to reflect the change
in required credit spread since the instrument was first recognised.
S et out be low is a c ompariso n of the carrying amounts & fair values of the Bank’s financial instruments by classes,
that are not carried at fair value in the financial statements. This table does not include the fair values of non–
financial assets & non–financial liabilities.
