CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

INTRODUCTION

The Group's capital raising initiatives resulted in the Group receiving a total of US$14 831 145 capital from three strategic foreign partners in June 2013. The net amount was used to recapitalise the banking subsidiary in order to contribute to the minimum capital requirements set by the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ). The increased capital will allow the Bank to underwrite more business, a prerequisite for the financial services sector to continue its key role of helping develop the economy.

GROUP RESULTS

Compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The financial statements are prepared in compliance with the provisions of the Companies Act (Chapter 24:03) and the Banking Act (Chapter 24:20).

Assessment of the Economic Environment

The Zimbabwean economy in the last two quarters of 2013 and replicated in the first quarter of 2014 has been characterised by slow economic growth primarily as a result of reduced operating margins and tight liquidity. The slow-down in the economic growth has led to increased default risk and the average banking sector non-performing loans have consequently risen to 15.92% as at 31 December 2013 as per the recent Monetary Policy Statement. Credit risk has become the critical area that banks and corporates have to deal with.

Commentary on operating results

The loss before taxation was US$3 951 865 during the period under review and this gave rise to an attributable loss of US$3 321 823. Total income for the period increased by 11% from a prior year of US$45 055 751 to US$ 50 135 302 which is split into interest income of US$33 181 704, fee and commission income of US$14 673 834, net foreign exchange gains of US$1 502 044 and non-interest income of US$777 720.

Operating expenses amounted to US$25 232 756 and these were 18% up from prior year and comprise largely of administration expenses, depreciation and staff related expenditure.

Impairment losses on loans and advances amounted to US$16 645 810 for the current period from a prior year of

US$3 985 062. The Board of Directors took a decision to write off loans and advances amounting to

US$12 230 408 during the year under review after recovery efforts had not yielded the anticipated results.

In February 2013, the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe and participating members of the Bankers Association of Zimbabwe (BAZ) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) which provided limits on bank charges and interest rates. The measures took effect from 1 February 2013 and the MoU was not renewed in December 2013. Whilst we recognise the need to keep fees and interest rates as low as possible, this MoU has had a pronounced effect on the Bank's profitability for the period under review, as the risk has not been reduced in line with the controlled returns.

Commentary on the Statement of financial position

The Group's total assets grew by 15% from US$226 533 682 as at 31 December 2012 to US$259 483 112 as at 31 December 2013. The assets comprised mainly of loans, advances and other accounts (US$181 316 271), investment securities held to maturity (US$4 685 471), investment in debentures (US$3 984 723), cash and short term funds (US$48 871 983), investment properties (US$4 385 300), non-current assets held for sale (US$2 303 300) and property and equipment (US$7 372 943). Gross loans and advances increased by 25% from US$152 417 375 as at 31 December 2012 to US$189 990 724 as at 31 December 2013. The Bank's liquidity ratio closed the period at 32.52% and this was above the statutory requirement of 30%.

Capital

The banking subsidiary's capital adequacy ratio at 31 December 2013 calculated in accordance with the guidelines of the RBZ was 17.28% (31 December 2012 - 15.50%). The minimum required by the RBZ is 12%.

The Group's shareholders' funds have increased by 40% from US$30 942 083 as at 31 December 2012 to

US$43 441 403 as at 31 December 2013 primarily as a result of the new capital injected into the Group.

Dividend

In view of the attributable loss position for the year, the need to retain cash in the business and to strengthen the statutory capital position for the banking subsidiary, the Board has proposed not to declare a dividend.

CORPORATE SOCIAL INVESTMENTS

The Group is committed to playing an active role in the communities it serves. Our community investments are channeled into education, the disadvantaged, vulnerable groups, protection of the environment, wild life conservation, the arts and various sporting disciplines.

CORPORATE DEVELOPMENTS

In line with our strategic thrust to offer service excellence to our valued high net worth individuals and businesses, we successfully launched the Mobile Banking, Internet Banking, Teller POS, Aptra Promote and EcoCash integration during the year under review.

OUTLOOK AND STRATEGY

The Group has since dollarisation secured lines of credit amounting to US$57 million and these have allowed the Bank to underwrite more lending business for the benefit of our clients. Subsequent to year end, the Bank secured a US$10 million line of credit from a European Development Financial Institution (Proparco) and the Bank will continue to scout for more international lines of credit. The Group continues to pursue market opportunities which take advantage of strong liquidity, without exacerbating credit risk.

DIRECTORATE

Ms L Majonga, Mr B Ndachena, Mr F Zimuto and Mr J de la Fargue resigned as directors of NMBZ Holdings Limited and NMB Bank Limited with effect from 20 November 2013. Mr L Chinyamutangira and Mr F S Mangozho resigned from the NMB Bank Limited Board with effect from 20 November 2013. Mr B Ndachena, Mr F Zimuto, Mr L Chinyamutangira and Mr F S Mangozho remain employees of the Group. I would like to thank them all for their invaluable contribution to the respective Boards over the years.

Subsequent to year end, Mr B Zwinkels, Ms M Svova, Mr B Chikwanha, Mr C Ndiaye and Mr D Malik were appointed to the Board with effect from 31 January 2014. I would like to welcome the new board members and wish them a fruitful tenure on the Board.

APPRECIATION

I would like to express my profound gratitude and appreciation to our valued clients, shareholders and the Regulatory Authorities for their unwavering support during the period under review. I would also like to thank my fellow Board members, management and staff for their steadfast commitment and dedication in the face of an increasingly difficult operating environment.

The Group controls an investee if it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the investee. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date on which control commences until date when control ceases. The financial results of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. All intra-group balances, transactions, income and expenses; profits and losses resulting from intra-group transactions that are recognised in assets and liabilities are eliminated in full. When the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary, and any related non-controlling interest and other components of equity. Any resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss. Any interest retained in the former subsidiary is measured at fair value when control is lost.

An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence, as evidenced by the Group holding directly or indirectly 20% or more of the voting power of the investee, representation on the Board and direct involvement with the policy making processes of the investee. The investment in associates is accounted for using the equity method.

   2.3    Comparative financial information 

The consolidated financial statements comprise consolidated statements of financial position, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows. The comparative consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows are for twelve months.

   2.4     Use of estimates and judgements 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.

In the process of applying the Group's accounting policies, management has made the following judgements which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements:

2.4.1 Deferred tax

Provision for deferred taxation is made using the liability method in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Temporary differences arising out of the initial recognition of assets or liabilities and temporary differences on initial recognition of business combinations that affect neither accounting nor taxable profit are not recognised. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

In determining the amounts used for taxation purposes the directors referred to applicable effective exchange rates at the date of acquisition of assets or incurring of liabilities. The Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (ZIMRA), announced methods to account for the deferred tax arising on assets purchased in ZWD. These methods require the preparer to first estimate the equivalent USD value of those assets at the time of purchase. Since the measurement of transactions in Zimbabwe dollars in the prior periods is affected by several economic variables such as mode of payment and hyperinflation, this is an area where the directors have had to apply their judgement and acknowledge there could be significant variations in the results achieved depending on assumptions made.

2.4.2 Land and buildings

The properties were valued by professional valuers. The valuers applied the rental yield method and comparable market evidence to assess fair value of land and buildings. The determined fair value of land and buildings is most sensitive to the estimated yield as well as the long term vacancy rate. In addition, the property market is currently not stable due to liquidity constraints and hence comparable values are also not stable.

2.4.3 Investment properties

Investment properties were valued by professional valuers. The professional valuers considered comparable market evidence of recent sale transactions and those transactions where firm offers had been made but awaiting acceptance. In addition, the property market is currently not stable due to liquidity constraints and hence comparable values are also not stable.

The directors exercised their judgment in determining the residual values of the other property and equipment which have been determined as nil.

2.4.4 RBZ Bond

The RBZ Bond was valued at cost as there is currently no market information to facilitate the application of fair value principles. There is currently no active market for these bonds.

2.4.5 Impairment losses on loans and advances

The Group reviews all loans and advances at each reporting date to assess whether an impairment loss should be recorded in profit or loss. In particular, judgement by management is required in the estimation of the amount and timing of future cash flows when determining the impairment loss. In estimating these cash flows, the Group makes judgements about the borrower's financial situation and the net realisable value of collateral. These estimates are based on assumptions about a number of factors and actual results may differ, resulting in future changes to the allowance. Loans and advances that have been assessed individually and found not to be impaired and all individually insignificant loans and advances are then assessed collectively, in groups of assets with similar risk characteristics, to determine whether provision should be made due to incurred loss events for which there is objective evidence but whose effects are not yet evident. The collective assessment takes account of data from the loan portfolio (such as credit quality, levels of arrears, credit utilisation, loan to collateral ratios etc.), concentrations of risks and economic data.

The impairment loss on loans and advances is disclosed in more detail under note 8 and note 17.3 below.

2.4.6 Going concern

The Directors have assessed the ability of the Group to continue operating as a going concern and believe that the preparation of these consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis is still appropriate.

   3.      ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these abridged financial statements are set out in Note 2 and 3. These policies have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated.

   3.1    Financial instruments 

3.1.1Classification

Financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit and loss include financial assets and liabilities held for trading i.e. those that the Group principally holds for the purpose of short-term profit taking as well as those that were, upon initial recognition, designated by the entity as financial assets or liabilities at fair value through profit and loss.

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market other than those classified as held-for-trading and the Group upon initial recognition designates as at fair value through profit or loss and those the Group upon initial recognition designates as available-for-sale.

Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity that the Group has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity.

Financial assets available-for-sale are non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available-for- sale or are not classified as loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments or financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.

3.1.2 Recognition

The Group recognises financial assets at fair value through profit and loss and available for sale assets on the date it commits to purchase the assets. From this date any gains and losses arising from changes in fair value of the assets are recognised in the income statement and other comprehensive income respectively.

Held-to-maturity investments and loans and receivables are recognised at cost which is the fair value of the consideration given on the day that they are transferred to the Group.

3.1.3 Measurement

Financial assets and liabilities are measured initially at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through profit and loss and available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value, except that any instrument that does not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured is stated at cost, less impairment losses.

Held-to-maturity investments and loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost less impairment losses. Amortised cost is calculated using the effective interest rate method. Premiums and discounts, including initial transaction costs, are included in the carrying amount of the related instrument and amortised based on the effective interest rate of the instrument.

   3.1.4   Fair value measurement principles 

The fair value of financial instruments is based on their quoted market price at the reporting date without any deduction for transaction costs. If a quoted market price is not available, the fair value of the instrument is estimated using pricing models or discounted cash flow techniques.

Where discounted cash flow techniques are used, estimated future cash flows are based on management's best estimates and the discount rate is a market related rate at the reporting date for an instrument with similar terms and conditions. Where pricing models are used, inputs are based on market related measures at the reporting date.

   3.2      Investment properties 

Investment properties are stated at fair value. Gains and losses arising from a change in fair value of investment properties are recognized in the income statement. The fair value is determined at the end of each reporting period, by a registered professional valuer.

3.3 Share - based payments

The Group issues share options to certain employees in terms of the Employee Share Option Scheme. Share options are measured at fair value at the date of grant. The fair value determined at the date of grant of the options is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group's estimate of shares that will eventually vest. Fair value is measured using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The expected life used in the model has been adjusted, based on management's best estimate, for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions and other behavioural considerations.

3.4 Property and equipment

International Accounting Standard 16 (IAS 16) stipulates that the residual value and the useful life of an asset must be reviewed at least each financial year-end. If the residual value of an asset increases by an amount equal to or greater than the asset's carrying amount, then the depreciation of the asset ceases. Depreciation will resume only when the residual value decreases to an amount below the asset's carrying amount.

   3.5    Intangible assets 

Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. Subsequently, the assets are measured at cost less accumulated armotisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

   8.       IMPAIRMENT LOSSES ON LOANS AND ADVANCES 

Impairment losses are applied to write off loans and advances in part or in whole when they are considered partly or wholly irrecoverable. The aggregate impairment losses which are made during the year are dealt with as per paragraph 8.3.

   8.1   Specific provisions 

Specific provisions are made where the repayment of identified loans and advances is in doubt and reflect estimates of the loss. Loans and advances are written off against specific provisions once the probability of recovering any significant amounts becomes remote

   8.2    Portfolio provisions 

The portfolio provision relates to the inherent risk of losses which, although not separately identified, is known to be present in any loan portfolio.

8.3 Regulatory Guidelines and International Financial Reporting Standards Requirements

The Banking Regulations 2000 gives guidance on provisioning for doubtful debts and stipulates certain minimum percentages to be applied to the respective categories of the loan book.

International Accounting Standard 39, Financial Instruments Recognition and Measurement (IAS 39), prescribes the provisioning for impairment losses based on the actual loan losses incurred in the past applied to the sectoral analysis of book debts and the discounting of expected cash flows on specific problem accounts.

The two prescriptions are likely to give different results. The Group has taken the view that where the IAS 39 charge is less than the amount provided for in the Banking Regulations, the difference is recognized directly in equity as a transfer from retained earnings to a regulatory reserve and where it is more, the full amount will be charged to the profit or loss.

   8.4    Non-performing loans 

Interest on loans and advances is accrued to income until such time as reasonable doubt exists about its collectability, thereafter and until all or part of the loan is written off, interest continues to accrue on customers' accounts, but is not included in income. Such suspended interest is deducted from loans and advances in the statement of financial position. This policy meets the requirements of the Banking Regulations 2000 issued by the RBZ.

   9.      EARNINGS PER SHARE 

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit for the year attributable to ordinary equity holders of NMBZ Holdings Limited by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.

Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to ordinary equity holders of NMBZ Holdings Limited adjusted for the after tax effect of: (a) any dividends or other items related to dilutive potential ordinary shares deducted in arriving at profit or loss attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent entity; (b) any interest recognised in the period related to dilute potential ordinary shares; (c) any other changes in income or expense that would result from the conversion of the dilutive potential ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be issued on the conversion of all the dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares.

The Company received US$14 831 145 capital from Nederlandse Financierings-Maatschappij Voor Ontiwikkelingslanden N.V. (FMO), Norwegian Investment Fund for Developing Countries (Norfund) and AfricInvest Financial Sector Holdings (AfricInvest) who were allocated 34 571 429 shares each (total of 103 714 287) for individually investing US$4 943 715. This amount, net of share issue expenses, was used to recapitalise the Bank in order to contribute towards the minimum capital requirements set by the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe of US$100 million by 31 December 2020.

NMBZ Holdings Limited (NMBZ) entered into a share buy-back agreement with Norfund, FMO and AfricInvest, where these three strategic investors have a right on their own discretion at any time after the 5(th) anniversary but before the 9(th) anniversary of its first subscription date, to request NMBZ to buy back all or part of its NMBZ shares at a price to be determined using the agreed terms as entailed in the share buy-back agreement. It is a condition precedent that at any point when the share buy-back is being considered, the proceeds used to finance the buy-back should come from the distributable reserves which are over and above the minimum regulatory capital requirements. Further, no buy-back option can be exercised by any investor after the 9(th) anniversary of the effective date.

The share buy-back agreement creates a potential obligation for NMBZ Holdings Limited to purchase its own instruments. The shares issued gave rise to a financial liability and are classified as redeemable ordinary shares.

The Group is in possession of land with a fair value of US$2 225 300 at year end. The Group entered into a sale agreement for a portion of the land in 2012, however the execution and finalisation of the sale under this contract has been pending throughout 2013, due to unexpected delays in obtaining certain regulatory approvals. The disposal process is now expected to be completed within the next twelve months after the reporting date. The disposal will improve the Group's cashflows. The fair value adjustment on recognition as non-current asset held for sale is included under non-interest income (note 5).

The carrying cost less accumulated depreciation of the land and buildings had revaluations not been performed would be $3 419 586 as at 31 December 2013 (2012 - $3 471 179).

The fair value of the Bank's investment properties as at 31 December 2013 has been arrived at on the basis of valuations carried out by independent professional valuers. The valuation which conforms to International Valuation Standards, was in terms of the policy as set out in the accounting policies section and was derived with reference to market information close to the date of the valuation.

The values were arrived at by applying yield rates of 9.5% on rental levels of between US$6 - US$8 per square metre. The properties are leased out under operating lease to various tenants.

The Bank has no restrictions on the realisability of all investment properties and no contractual obligations to purchase, construct or develop the investment properties or for repairs, maintenance and enhancements.

Rental income amounting to US$47 618 (2012 - US$12 408) was received and no operating expenses were incurred on the investment properties in the current year due to the net leasing arrangement on the properties.

    g.      CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND RISK MANAGEMENT 
   1.    RESPONSIBILITY 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the directors. This responsibility includes the setting up of internal control and risk management processes, which are monitored independently. The information contained in these financial statements has been prepared on the going concern basis and is in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act (Chapter 24:03), the Banking Act (Chapter 24:20) and International Financial Reporting Standards.

   2.    CORPORATE GOVERNANCE 

The Bank adheres to principles of corporate governance derived from the King III Report, the United Kingdom Combined Code and RBZ corporate governance guidelines. The Bank is cognisant of its duty to conduct business with due care and in good faith in order to safeguard all stakeholders' interests.

   3.    BOARD OF DIRECTORS 

Board appointments are made to ensure a variety of skills and expertise on the Board. Non-executive directors are of such calibre as to provide independence to the Board. The Chairman of the Board is an independent non-executive director. The Board is supported by mandatory committees in executing its responsibilities. The Board meets at least quarterly to assess risk, review performance and provide guidance to management on both operational and policy issues.

The Board conducts an annual peer based evaluation on the effectiveness of its activities. The process involves the members evaluating each other collectively as a board and individually as members. The evaluation, as prescribed by the RBZ, takes into account the structure of the board, effectiveness of committees, strategic leadership, corporate social responsibility, attendance and participation of members and weaknesses noted. Remedial plans are invoked to address identified weaknesses with a view to continually improve the performance and effectiveness of the Board and its members.

   4.     RISK MANAGEMENT 

The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Bank's risk management framework. The Board has established the Board Asset and Liability Management Committee (ALCO) and Board Risk Committee, which are responsible for defining the Bank's risk universe, developing policies and monitoring implementation. The Bank strengthened its risk management function by appointing a Chief Risk Officer in September 2013 with overall responsibility over all risks in the Bank. The Bank has complied with Basel II implementation timelines set by the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe.

Risk management is linked logically from the level of individual transactions to the Bank level. Risk management activities broadly take place simultaneously at the following different hierarchy levels:

a) Strategic Level: This involves risk management functions performed by senior management and the board of directors. It includes the definition of risk, ascertaining the Bank's risk appetite, formulating strategy and policy for managing risk and establishes adequate systems and controls to ensure overall risk remains within acceptable levels and is adequately compensated.

b) Macro Level: It encompasses risk management within a business area or across business lines. These risk management functions are performed by middle management.

c) Micro Level: This involves "On-the-line" risk management where risks are actually created. These are the risk management activities performed by individuals who assume risk on behalf of the organization such as Treasury Front Office, Corporate Banking, Retail banking etc. The risk management in these areas is confined to operational procedures set by management.

Risk management is premised on four (4) mutually reinforcing pillars, namely:

   a)        adequate board and senior management oversight; 
   b)       adequate strategy, policies, procedures and limits; 
   c)        adequate risk identification, measurement, monitoring and information systems; and 
   d)       comprehensive internal controls and independent reviews. 

4.1 Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that a financial contract will not be honoured according to the original set of terms. The risk arises when borrowers or counterparties to a financial instrument fail to meet their contractual obligations. The Bank reviewed its credit risk management structures aimed at enhancing credit risk and asset quality. The Bank's general credit strategies centre on sound credit granting process, diligent credit monitoring and strong loan collection and recovery. There is a separation between loan collection and recovery. There is a separation between loan granting and credit monitoring to ensure independence and effective management of the loan portfolio. The Board has put in place sanctioning committees with specific credit approval limits. The Credit Management department does the initial review of all applications before recommending them to the Executive Credit Committee and finally the Board Credit Committee depending on the loan amount. The Bank has in place a Board Loans Review Committee responsible for reviewing the quality of the loan book.

The Bank is in the process of implementing a Credit Management System and this will entail an automated end to end management of credit from the loan origination to recoveries. The system should be in place by the first half of 2014.

Management of credit risk is the responsibility of Credit Management, Credit Monitoring, Credit Administration and Recoveries departments with the following responsibilities:

Credit Management

   --   Responsible for evaluating & approving credit proposals from the business units. 
   --   Together with business units, has primary responsibility on the quality of the loan book. 
   --   Reviewing credit policy for approval by the Board Credit Committee. 

-- Reviewing business unit level credit portfolios to ascertain changes in the credit quality of individual customers or other counterparties as well as the overall portfolio and detect unusual developments.

-- Approve initial customer internal credit grades or recommend to the Credit Committees for approval.

   --   Setting the credit risk appetite parameters. 
   --   Ensure the bank adheres to limits, mandates and its credit policy. 

-- Ensure adherence to facility covenants and conditions of sanction e.g. annual audits, gearing levels, management accounts.

   --   Manage trends in asset and portfolio composition, quality and growth and non-performing loans. 

-- Manage concentration risk both in terms of single borrowers or group as well as sector concentrations and the review of such limits.

Credit Monitoring and Financial Modelling

   --   Independent Credit Risk Management. 
   --   Independent on-going monitoring of individual credit and portfolios. 

-- Triggers remedial actions to protect the interests of the Bank, if appropriate (e.g. in relation to deteriorated credits).

   --   Monitors the on-going development and enhancement of credit risk management across the Bank. 
   --   Reviews the Internal Credit Rating System. 
   --   On-going championing of the Basel II methodologies across the Bank. 

-- Ensures consistency in the rating processes and performs independent review of credit grades to ensure they conform to the rating standards.

-- Confirm the appropriateness of the credit risk strategy and policy or recommends necessary revisions in response to changes/trends identified.

Credit Administration

   --   Prepares and keeps custody of all facility letters. 
   --   Security registration. 
   --   Safe custody of security documents. 
   --   Ensures all conditions of sanction are fulfilled before allowing drawdown or limit marking. 
   --   Review of credit files for documentation compliance e.g. call reports, management accounts. 

Recoveries

The recoveries unit is responsible for all collections and ensures that the Bank maximizes recoveries from Non-Performing Loans(NPLs).

   4.2   Market risk 

This is the exposure of the Bank's on and off balance sheet positions to adverse movement in market prices resulting in a loss in earnings and capital. The market prices will range from money market (interest rate risk), foreign exchange and equity markets in which the Bank operates. The Bank has in place a Management Asset and Liability Committee (ALCO) which monitors market risk and recommends the appropriate levels to which the bank should be exposed at any time. Net Interest Margin is the primary measure of interest rate risk, supported by periodic stress tests to assess the Bank's ability to withstand stressed market conditions. On foreign exchange risk, the Bank monitors currency mismatches and make adjustments depending on exchange rate movement forecast. The mismatches are also contained within 10% of the Bank's capital position.

ALCO meets on a monthly basis and operates within the prudential guidelines and policies established by the Board ALCO. The Board ALCO is responsible for setting exposure thresholds and limits, and meets on a quarterly basis.

   4.3   Liquidity risk 

Liquidity risk is the risk of financial loss arising from the inability of the Bank to fund asset increases or meet obligations as they fall due without incurring unacceptable costs or losses. The Bank identifies this risk through maturity profiling of assets and liabilities and assessment of expected cash flows and the availability of collateral which could be used if additional funding is required.

The daily liquidity position is monitored and regular liquidity stress testing is conducted under a variety of scenarios covering both normal and more severe market conditions. All liquidity policies and procedures are subject to review and approval by the Board ALCO.

The key measure used by the Bank for managing liquidity risk is the ratio of net liquid assets to deposits to customers. The Bank also actively monitors its loans to deposit ratio against a set threshold in a bid to monitor and limit funding risk. Liquidity risk is monitored through a daily treasury strategy meeting. This is augmented by a monthly management ALCO and a quarterly Board ALCO.

   4.4   Operational risk 

This risk is inherent in all business activities and is the risk of loss arising from inadequate or failed internal processes, people, systems or from external events. The Bank utilises monthly key risk indicators to monitor operational risk in all units. Further to this, the Bank has an elaborate operational loss reporting system in which all incidents with a material impact on the well-being of the Bank are reported to risk management. The risk department conducts periodic risk assessments on all the units within the Bank aimed at identifying the top risks and ways to minimise their impact. There is a Board Risk Committee whose function is to ensure that this risk is minimized. The Risk Committee with the assistance of the Internal Audit function and the Risk Management department assesses the adequacy of the internal controls and makes the necessary recommendations to the Board.

   4.5      Legal and compliance risk 

Legal risk is risk from uncertainty due to legal actions or uncertainty in the applicability or interpretation of contracts, laws or regulations. Legal risk may entail such issues as contract formation, capacity and contract frustration. Compliance risk is the risk arising from non - compliance with laws and regulations. To manage this risk permanent relationships are maintained with firms of legal practitioners and access to legal advice is readily available to all departments. The Bank has an independent compliance function which is responsible for identifying and monitoring all compliance issues and ensures the Bank complies with all regulatory and statutory requirements.

   4.7       Reputational risk 

Reputation risk is the risk of loss of business as a result of negative publicity or negative perceptions by the market with regards to the way the Bank conducts its business. To manage this risk, the Bank strictly monitors customers' complaints, continuously train staff at all levels, conducts market surveys and periodic reviews of business practices through its internal audit department. The directors are satisfied with the risk management processes in the bank as these have contributed to the minimization of losses arising from risky exposures.

   4.8       Strategic risk 

This refers to current and prospective impact on a Bank's earnings and capital arising from adverse business decisions or implementing strategies that are not consistent with the internal and external environment. To manage this risk, the Bank always has a strategic plan that is adopted by the Board of directors. Further, attainment of strategic objectives by the various departments is monitored periodically at management level. Further, there is an ALCO, Finance and Strategy Committee at Board level responsible for monitoring overall progress towards attaining strategic objectives for the Bank.

The directors are satisfied with the risk management processes in the Bank as these have contributed to the minimisation of losses arising from risky exposures.

KEY

Level of Inherent Risk

Low - reflects a lower than average probability of an adverse impact on a banking institution's capital and earnings. Losses in a functional area with low inherent risk would have little negative impact on the banking institution's overall financial condition.

Moderate - could reasonably be expected to result in a loss which could be absorbed by a banking institution in the normal course of business.

High - reflects a higher than average probability of potential loss. High inherent risk could reasonably be expected to result in a significant and harmful loss to the banking institution.

Adequacy of Risk Management Systems

Weak - risk management systems are inadequate or inappropriate given the size, complexity and risk profile of the banking institution. Institution's risk management systems are lacking in important ways and therefore a cause of more than normal supervisory attention. The internal control systems will be lacking in important aspects particularly as indicated by continued control exceptions or by the failure to adhere to written policies and procedures.

Acceptable - management of risk is largely effective but lacking to some modest degree. While the institution might be having some minor risk management weaknesses, these have been recognised and are being addressed. Management information systems are generally adequate.

Strong - management effectively identifies and controls all types of risk posed by the relevant functional areas or per inherent risk. The board and senior management are active participants in managing risk and ensure appropriate policies and limits are put in place. The policies comprehensively define the bank's risk tolerance, responsibilities and accountabilities are effectively communicated.

Overall Composite Risk

Low - would be assigned to low inherent risk areas. Moderate risk areas may be assigned a low composite risk where internal controls and risk management systems are strong and effectively mitigate much of the risk.

Moderate - risk management systems appropriately mitigates inherent risk. For a given low risk area, significant weaknesses in the risk management systems may result in a moderate composite risk assessment. On the other hand, a strong risk management system may reduce the risk so that any potential financial loss from the activity would have only a moderate negative impact on the financial condition of the organisation.

High - risk management systems do not significantly mitigate the high inherent risk. Thus, the activity could potentially result in a financial loss that would have a significant impact on the bank's overall condition.

Direction of Overall Composite Risk

Increasing - based on the current information, risk is expected to increase in the next 12 months.

Decreasing - based on current information, risk is expected to decrease in the next 12 months.

Stable - based on the current information, risk is expected to be stable in the next 12 months.

   4.9.2    External Credit Ratings 

The external credit ratings were given by Global Credit Rating (GCR), a credit rating agency accredited with the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe.

   Security class                                      2013                2012 
   Long term                                             BBB-               BBB- 
     5.        REGULATORY COMPLIANCE 

There were no instances of regulatory non-compliance in the period under review. The Bank remains committed to complying with and adhering to all regulatory requirements.

   6.         CAPITAL MANAGEMENT 

The primary objective of the Bank's capital management is to ensure that the Bank complies with the RBZ requirements. In implementing the current capital requirements, the RBZ requires the Banking subsidiary to maintain a prescribed ratio of total capital to total risk weighted assets.

Regulatory capital consists of Tier 1 capital, which comprises share capital, share premium, retained earnings (including current year profit), statutory reserve and other equity reserves.

The other component of regulatory capital is Tier 2 capital, which includes subordinated term debt, revaluation reserves and portfolio provisions.

Tier 3 capital relates to an allocation of capital to market and operational risk.

Various limits are applied to elements of the capital base. The core capital (Tier 1) shall comprise not less than 50% of the capital base and the regulatory reserves and portfolio provisions are limited to 1.25% of total risk weighted assets.

NMB BANK LIMITED

   7.      SEGMENT INFORMATION 

For management purposes, the Bank is organised into four operating segments based on products and services as follows:

Retail Banking Individual customers deposits and consumer loans, overdrafts, credit card facilities and funds transfer facilities. Corporate Banking - Loans and other credit facilities and

deposit and current accounts for corporate and          institutional customers.   Treasury 

Money market investment, securities trading, accepting and discounting of instruments and foreign currency trading. International Banking - Handles the Bank's foreign currency denominated banking business and manages relationships with correspondent banks.

Management monitors the operating results of its business units separately for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. Segment performance is evaluated based on operating profit or loss which in certain respects is measured differently from operating profit or loss in the financial statements. Income taxes are managed on a bank wide basis and are not allocated to operating segments.

Interest income is reported net as management primarily relies on net interest revenue as a performance measure, not the gross income and expense.

Transfer prices between operating segments are on arm's length basis in a manner similar to transactions with third parties.

No revenue from transactions with a single external customer or counterparty amounted to 10% or more of

the          Bank's total revenue in 2013 and 2012.
