ii) Financial liabilities
The Group’s financial liabilities are classified as other financial liabilities at amortised cost. They include: investment
contract liabilities, trade and other payables.
Subsequent to initial recognition, financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value while
other financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost. In accordance with IAS 39, all financial assets and liabilities
(including derivative financial instruments) have to be recognized in the financial statements and measured in accordance
with their assigned categories. The table below represents the Group’s classification of all its financial assets and liabilities:

iii) Fair value measurement
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date in the principal or in its absence, the most advantageous market
to which the Group has access at that date. The fair value of a liability reflects its non performance risk.
When available, the compnay measures the fair value of an instrument using the quoted price in an active market for that
instrument. A market is regarded as active if transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and
volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
If there is no quoted price in an active market, then the Group uses valuation techniques that maximize the use of relevant
observable inputs and minimise the use of unobservable inputs. The chosen valuation technique incorporates all of the
factors that market participants would take into account in pricing a transaction. Valuation techniques include using

The following explains how applying the new classification requirements of IFRS 9 led to changes in classification of
certain financial assets held by the Group and Company as shown in the table above:
(i) Designation of equity instruments at FVOCI
The Group has elected to irrevocably designate its portfolio of equity securities at FVOCI as permitted
under IFRS 9. These securities were previously classified as held for trading. The changes in fair value of such
securities will no longer be reclassified to profit or loss when they are disposed of.
(ii) Reclassification from retired categories with no change in measurementIn addition to the above, the following debt
instruments have been reclassified to new categories under IFRS 9, as their previous categories under IAS 39 were
‘retired’, with no changes to their measurement basis:
(i) Those previously classified as available for sale and now classified as measured at FVOCI; and
(ii) Those previously classified as held to maturity and now classified as measured at amortised cost.
iii) Those previously classified as loans and receivables and now classified as measured at amortised
cost.

3.3 Other receivables and prepayments
Other receivables are measured at amortised cost less accumulated impairment losses while prepayment are carried at
cost less accumulated impairment losses.
3.4 Reinsurance assets and reinsurance liabilities
Reinsurance assets represent balances due from reinsurance contracts. Reinsurance liabilities are primarily premiums
payable for reinsurance contracts and are recognised as an expense when due. The details of recognition and measurement
of reinsurance contracts assets and liabilities have been set out under note 3.18 (e).
3.5 Deferred acquisition cost
Acquisition costs comprise insurance commissions, brokerage and other related expenses arising from the generation
and conclusion of insurance contracts. The proportion of acquisition costs that correspond to the unearned premiums
are deferred as an asset and recognized in the subsequent period. They are recognised on a basis consistent with the
related provisions for unearned premiums.
3.6 Investment property
Investment property comprises investment in land or buildings held primarily to earn rental income or capital appreciation
or both. Investment property is initially recognized at cost including transaction costs. The carrying amount includes the
cost of replacing part of an existing investment property at the time that cost is incurred if the recognition criteria are
met; and excludes cost of day to day servicing of an investment property. Investment property is subsequently measured
at fair value with any change therein recognised in profit or loss. Fair values are determined individually, on a basis
appropriate to the purpose for which the property is intended and with regard to recent market transactions for similar
properties in the same location.
Fair values are reviewed annually by independent valuer, registered with the Financial Reporting Council (FRC) of
Nigeria as well as holding a recognized and relevant professional qualification and with relevant experience in the
location and category of investment property being valued.

Accounting classification, measurement basis and fair values
Measurement basis
The fair value for financial assets and liabilities that are not carried at fair value were determined respectively as
follows:
(i) Financial assets:
The fair value for these financial assets is based on market prices from financial market dealer price
quotations. Where this information is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for
securities with similar credit, maturity and yield characteristics.
(ii) Cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other receivables, reinsurance assets and statutory deposits:
The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other receivables, reinsurance assets and
statutory deposits are a reasonable approximation of their fair value as they are all short term in nature.
(iii) Investment contract liabilities, trade payables and other payables:
The carrying amount of investment contract liabilities, trade payables and other payables are a reasonable
approximation of their fair value as they are all short term in nature.
