V. OFFSETTING FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
VI. INTEREST INCOME AND EXPENSE Interest income and expense are recognized in the income statement on an accrual basis. When the Bank management estimates and judges that the collection becomes doubtful, then the interest income is not recognized until the collection is made and any accruals and income recognized in relation to these receivables are reversed.
