 BSD Circular No. 02 of 2012
September 13, 2012

The Presidents / Chief Executives
All Banks Incorporated in Pakistan.

Dear Sirs/ Madam,

Prudential Returns Regarding Details of Related Parties Exposures and Transactions

In addition to the risks that banks generally carry on their books, they are also exposed to risks arising out of their relationship with associated undertakings. One of the Core Principles of Effective Banking Supervision issued by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision also necessitates consolidated supervision of banks, covering all risks, whether they are carried on their own books or on the books of associates. It is, therefore, imperative to monitor and assess the risks posed by such relationships.   

Accordingly, the State Bank is introducing the following returns/statements:

A. Details of related parties;

B. Details of exposures to and from related parties;

C. Details of related party dealings and transactions;

D. Details of equity exposures;

E. Details of capital adequacy of subsidiaries; and

F. Latest available financial statements of subsidiaries and associates (as defined in the IAS-28)

The formats of these returns (A to E above) are attached herewith. All banks incorporated in Pakistan are advised to submit these returns/statements on half-yearly basis, effective from half year ending June 30, 2012 and onward. These returns should reach this department within 45 days of the close of each half-year ending June 30 and December 31. However, banks may submit the returns for half-year ending June 30, 2012 within 45 days from the date of this circular.

Please acknowledge receipt.

Enclosure: As above.


Yours faithfully,


(Lubna Farooq Malik)
Director
