The amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate.
Impairment losses of Loans at Available for Sale are defined to be the difference between the fair value of loans that exhibit indicators of impairment and original cost.
The maximum credit risk exposure for loans including undrawn credit facilities amounts to EUR 8,812 million in 2008 (2007: EUR 10,164 million), (excluding the group companies).
The total amount of subordinated loans in this item, as at 31 December 2008, amounts to EUR 2 million (2007: EUR 135 million). An amount of EUR 0 million (2007: EUR 6 million) of subordinated loans is included with respect to group companies.
EUR 38 million (2007: EUR 59 million) of loans to the public sector at Available for Sale is guaranteed by the State of the Netherlands.
If NIBC had fair valued the Loans classified as Amortised Cost, then the balance sheet amount would decrease at the balance sheet date by EUR 380 million (2007: EUR 10 million). This decrease reflects both changes due to interest rates and credit spreads.
As a policy, NIBC does not provide loans to its executives.
EUR 76 million relates to the impact of the IAS 39 implementation. This reflects the reclassification of the impairments related to the Available for Sale Loans to the Loans category at Amortised Cost. The total amount of Loans in the Available for Sale category net of impairments has been reclassified to the Loans category at Amortised Cost, as at 1 July 2008.
For the impact of the implementation of IASB amendments ‘IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurements’ on the Income Statement and on Shareholders’ equity see notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 2008 of NIBC.

Subordinated assets included in Interest bearing securities amount to EUR 19 million (2007: EUR 151 million).
Interest bearing securities do not include assets issued and bought by NIBC for market making purposes. Any such assets are eliminated from the Balance Sheet.
Interest income from interest bearing securities and other fixed-income instruments is recognised in Interest and similar income at the effective interest rate. Fair value movements (excluding interest) are recognised in Net trading income.
The portion of fair value changes in 2008 included in the balance sheet amount (designated as Fair Value through Profit or Loss) as at 31 December 2008 relating to the movement in credit spreads amounts to EUR 21 million credit, being a reduction in the carrying value of the assets (2007: EUR 9 million credit).
For interest bearing securities at Amortised Cost the maximum credit exposure including unused Debt investments at Amortised Cost amounts to EUR 825 million (2007: nil). The other interest bearing securities are reported at fair value which represents the maximum credit exposure for these assets.
If NIBC had fair valued the interest bearing securities classified as Amortised Cost, then the balance sheet amount would decrease at the balance sheet date by EUR 168 million (2007: nil). This decrease reflects both changes due to interest rates and credit spreads.
No impairments were recorded in 2008 and 2007 on Interest bearing securities at Amortised Cost.
As at 1 July 2008, debt investments from the Available for Sale and Held for Trading category were reclassified to debt investments at Amortised Costs.

Fair value hedges of interest rate risk
The interest rate risk of financial assets with a fixed interest rate classified as Available for Sale or as Amortised Cost are hedged with interest rate swaps under which NIBC pays a fixed rate and receives floating rates. Fair value hedge accounting is applied to these so-called hedge relationships.
Interest rate swaps under which NIBC pays a floating rate and receives a fixed rate, are used in fair value hedges of fixed interest rate liabilities (as far as not Held for Trading purposes or designated as Fair Value through Profit or Loss).
The following table discloses the fair value of the swaps designated in fair value hedging relationships.

The fair value of this balance sheet item does not materially deviate from its face value due to the short-term nature of the related assets.
The recovery period for the deferred tax assets is estimated at 3.5 years.
Tax losses of EUR 3 million (2007: EUR 5 million) have not been tax recognised because it is not probable that these losses can be utilised. These unrecognised tax losses have no expiry date.

If NIBC had not reclassified financial assets during the current period, fair value losses recognised for year 2008 in profit or loss, and losses recognised in the revaluation reserve in Shareholders’ equity would have amounted to EUR 117 million after tax and EUR 220 million after tax respectively. Impairment charges would have amounted to nil for these assets that were classified out of Available for Sale into Loans and Receivables. In addition, NIBC would have recognised interest income out of Available for Sale assets for the amount of EUR 8 million. For more information see note 46 of the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Information on NIBC’s solvency ratios is include in the Risk Management section of this Annual Report.

Commitments and contingent assets and liabilities |
|
|
21 |
At any time, NIBC has outstanding commitments to extend credit. Outstanding offers for loan commitments have a commitment period that does not extend beyond the normal underwriting and settlement period of one to three months. Commitments extended to customers related to mortgages at fixed interest rates or fixed spreads are hedged with interest rate swaps recorded at fair value. These commitments are designated upon initial recognition as Fair Value through Profit or Loss.
NIBC provides financial guarantees and letters of credit to guarantee the performance of customers to third parties. These agreements have fixed limits and generally extend for a period up to five years. Expirations are not concentrated in any period.
The contractual amounts of commitments (excluding mortgages commitments, which are measured at Fair Value through Profit or Loss) and contingent liabilities are set out in the following table by category. In the table, it is assumed that amounts are fully advanced. The amounts for guarantees and letters of credit represent the maximum accounting loss that would be recognised at the balance sheet date if counterparties failed completely to perform as contracted.

The item includes EUR 1,000 million (2007: EUR 1,000 million) in respect of guarantees to group companies.
These commitments and contingent liabilities have off-balance sheet credit risk because only commitment and origination fees and accruals for probable losses are recognised in the Balance Sheet until the commitments are fulfilled or expire. Many of the contingent liabilities and commitments will expire without being advanced in whole or in part. Therefore, the amounts do not represent expected future cash flows.
Details of concentrations of credit risk including concentrations of credit risk arising from commitments and contingent liabilities as well as NIBC’s policies for collateral for loans are set out in the Risk Management paragraph.
