51. Fair value hierarchy
2022 Annual Report
Accounting policies:
Depending on the classification of financial assets and liabilities to a specific level of the hierarchy, different methods of fair value measurement are used.
Level 1: Prices quoted on active markets
Financial assets and liabilities whose fair value is stated directly at prices quoted (not adjusted) on active markets for identical assets and liabilities. In this category, the Group classifies financial and equity instruments for which there is an active market and for which the fair value is determined with reference to the market value, which is a bid price:
- debt securities valued using fixing from the Bondspot platform or Bloomberg or Reuters information services;
- debt and equity securities which are traded on regulated markets, including in the Biuro Maklerskie PKO BP portfolio;
- derivative instruments, which are traded on a regulated
Level 2: Valuation techniques based on observable market data
Financial assets and liabilities whose fair value is determined using valuation models where all significant entry data are observable on the market directly (as prices) or indirectly (based on prices). In this category, the Group classifies financial instruments for which there is no active market:
| Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value | Valuation method (technique) | Observable inputs |
|---|---|---|
| DERETIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS – CIRS, IRS, FRA | The discounted future cash flows model based on the yield curves. | Yield curves are built based on market rates, market data of the money market, market transactions of FRA, IRS, OIS, basis swap. |
| DERETIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS – CURRENCY OPTIONS, INTEREST RATE OPTIONS, EQUITY OPTIONS, FX FORWARD, FX SWAP TRANSACTIONS | Valuation models specific for particular type of a currency option, interest rate option and Equity option.
The model of discounted future cash flows based on yield curves for FX forward and FX swap transactions. |
Yield curves built based on money market rates, market rate of swap points, volatility levels for specific currency pairs, NBP fixing exchange rates. |
| MUNICIPAL BONDS IN PLN | Yield curve and risk margin model. | Yield curves are built based on market rates, money market data, IRS transactions market. |
| CORPORATE BONDS | Yield curve and risk margin model. | Yield curves are built based on market rates, money market data, IRS transactions market. |
| COMMODITY SWAP TRANSACTIONS | Commodity price curve model. | Commodity price and yield curves are built based on money market rates, market rates of SWAP points. |
| LIABILITIES IN RESPECT OF INSURANCE PRODUCTS MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE | A provision for life insurance in which the deposit risk is borne by the policyholder, in insurance with the insurance capital fund, is set up for each active policy individually, at the end of the reporting period. The provision is equal to the individual balance of the fund as at the date at which the provisions are created, and is equal to the number of units accumulated under the individual fund balance multiplied by the price as at the date of valuation. | Number of fund units, unit price |
Level 3: Other valuation techniques
Financial assets and liabilities whose fair value is determined using valuation models for which input data is not based on observable market data (unobservable input data). In this category, the Group classified financial instruments, which are valued using internal valuation models.
The fair value of equity and debt securities classified as financial assets is determined by the organizational units of the Head Office responsible for them, including the Treasury Products Department and the Brokerage House. In their internal regulations, these units specify the detailed measurement methods, including determination of the data sources used for measurement purposes and the method of performing the calculation.
The Credit Risk Department develops the assumptions of the fair value model for financial assets arising from loans and advances granted or other financing agreements being the substitute of loans. The Assets and Liabilities Management Committee approves the fair value model for loan exposures.
