purchasing transaction for its client and that client could not make the funds
available at the stipulated time, the security company is obligated to make payment
on the security transaction for its client.

ELUCIDATION

Intermediary and Security Trader

12. A security company carries out various security transactions on behalf of its
clients as an intermediary (broker) or on its own behalf as a security trader
(dealer).

page 3
Accounting of Securities Companies SFAS No. 42

Security transactions involves two dates which are important for accounting
purposes namely the trade date and the settlement date.

13. On the trade date the purchaser bears the risk or takes the benefit of the change in
the value of security purchased. On the settlement date, the seller must deliver the
securities and the purchaser must pay the price of the securities.

Security transaction

14. A security purchase and sale transaction, either on behalf of the client or on
its own behalf shall be recognized in the financial statements of the security
company at the time the commitment on the security transaction arises.

15. Under a security transaction in the regular market, risks, benefits and economic
potentials emerge on the trade date. The trade date constitutes the beginning of
the validity of the purchase and sale contract where the transacting parties have
agreed to the terms of the contract. To reflect the economic effects of the security
purchase and sale transaction, the security company must account for the change
in value in respect of the transaction.

16. In the event the security company purchases a security for its client, then such
transaction will result in a receivable from the client and a payable to the Clearing
and Underwriting Institution. On the settlement date, the security company will
receive payment from the client which will be used to pay and settle the liability to
the Clearing and Underwriting Institution. On the other hand, if the security
company sells securities for its client, the sale of the securities will result in a
receivable from the Clearing and Underwriting Institution and a liability to the
client. On the settlement date, the security company receives payment on the
receivable from the Clearing and Underwriting Institution which will subsequently
be used to settle and pay the liability to the client.

17. The purchase of securities on its own behalf shall be accounted for by recognizing
the portfolio of marketable securities and account payable. Sale of securities shall
be accounted for by recognizing account receivable and reducing the portfolio of
marketable securities and recognizing the profit or loss from the sale of the
securities.

18. If a security company cannot settle a security purchase transaction, such


transaction shall be recorded as fail to receive and presented on the balance
sheet as a liability. If a security company cannot settle a security sale
transaction, such transaction shall be recorded as fail to deliver and
presented on the balance sheet as an asset.

19. On the settlement date, the selling security company is obligated to deliver the
securities to the purchasing security company. If the seller cannot deliver the
securities, then the seller fails to deliver and the purchaser fails to receive.

page 4
Accounting of Securities Companies SFAS No. 42

Valuation of securities

20. Portfolio of securities purchased on its own behalf shall be valued based on
market prices. Unrealized profit or loss as a result of an increase or decrease
of the market price shall be reported in the current period profit and loss
statement.

21. Securities traded in the stock exchange have a high level of liquidity and are
subject to pretty fast price fluctuations. Therefore, valuation based on market
prices more reflects the value which can be realized. The market price is available
at the Stock Exchange and is published on a daily basis. In case a security is listed
in more than one stock exchange, the market price to be used is the latest price at
the main stock exchange where the security is traded.

22. If a security traded in the stock exchange is not liquid or the available market
price is not reliable, then the security shall be valued based on the fair value
determined by the management. If the market price of a listed security is not
available, the security shall be valued based on the lower between the
acquisition cost and fair value.

23. Although a security is listed at the stock exchange, it could happen that the market
price of the security is not available or is not reliable. This could happen because
the security is not actively traded. In such case the management must determine
the fair value of the security.

Securities Lending and Borrowing

24. Securities lending and borrowing transaction is usually carried out to prevent
failure to deliver. This usually happens in short selling namely selling securities
which are not in possession yet. For this purpose, the security company enter into

a securities lending and borrowing contract with another security company or with
the Clearing and Underwriting Institution. Under such transaction, the security
company borrowing the securities usually makes a guarantee deposit or deliver
other securities as guarantee or issue a standby letter of credit.

25. Securities lending and borrowing transaction with a deposit shall be


accounted for as a financing transaction. The borrowing security company
shall recognize the receivable in the amount of deposit surrendered and the
lending security company shall recognize the payable in the amount of
deposit received.

26. The security company which borrows the securities obtains a benefit from the
securities lending and borrowing transaction, as it will be able to fulfill its
obligation to deliver the securities at the time of settlement, whilst the security

page 5
Accounting of Securities Companies SFAS No. 42

company which lends the securities obtains a benefit from investing the deposit
received. In the event the securities are lent with other securities as guarantee or
through the issuance of a standby letter of credit, the security company will
receive a compensation (fee). The ownership of the securities lent and the
securities delivered as a guarantee does not change. Therefore, these securities
shall continue to be recognized as part of the portfolio of marketable securities by
the security company which lends the securities or by the security company which
delivers the securities as a guarantee.

Securities sale transaction with repo/securities purchase transaction with reverse


repo

27. A sale with repo transaction and a purchase with reverse repo transaction
constitute a financing transaction with securities as guarantee. The
accounting treatments of these transactions are as follows :

a. Securities sold with a repo shall be recognized as a liability and the


securities delivered shall continue to be recognized as part of the
portfolio of marketable securities. The difference between the sale price
and the purchase price shall be recognized as interest expense.

b. Securities purchased with a reverse repo shall be recognized as a


receivable and the securities received shall not be recognized as part of
the portfolio of marketable securities. The difference between the
purchase price and the resale price constitutes interest.

28. In a sale transaction with a repo, the security company sells the securities to
another party at a certain price and agrees to repurchase the securities within a
certain period of time at the same price plus a certain level of interest or at certain
higher price. On the other hand, in a security purchase transaction with a reverse

repo, the security company purchases securities at a certain price and agrees to
resell the securities at a certain price plus a certain level of interest, or at a certain
higher price. Under this transaction the securities ownership remains with the
seller and shall continue to be presented as part of the portfolio of marketable
securities.

of underwriting fees, selling fees and management fees.

32. A security company carries out the underwriting activities after receiving the
authority from the prospective issuer. On the allotment date, the securities are

36. In an underwriting with full commitment, the underwriting organizer and the
underwriter must purchase any under-subscribed securities. These securities shall

if the number of securities subscribed exceeds the number offered (over-
subscribed), the underwriting organizer and the underwriter must return the excess
of funds for the securities subscription. Any securities subscription which has not
