INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF NIC ASIA BANK LIMITED

Report on the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of NIC ASIA Bank Limited and its subsidiaries (referred to as the "Group"), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 32 Ashad 2082 (16 July 2025), and the consolidated statement of profit or loss, consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of cash flows, consolidated statement of changes in equity for the year 1 Shrawan 2081 to 32 Ashad 2082 (16 July 2025) and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 32 Ashad 2082 (16 July 2025), its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Nepal Financial Reporting Standards (NFRSs).

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Nepal Standards on Auditing (NSAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with ICAN's Handbook of Code of Ethics for professional accountants, together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of financial statements in Nepal, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAN's Handbook of Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

a) Information Technology (IT) systems and controls impacting financial reporting in relation to the Bank

Key Audit Matter

The Bank's IT environment is complex and comprises a large number of independent and interdependent IT systems used in its operations to process and record a high volume of transactions across numerous locations.

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

In assessing integrity of the IT systems relevant to financial reporting, our team gained an understanding of the Bank's IT infrastructure and systems supporting its financial reporting process for the evaluation and testing of general IT controls and application controls.

We gathered a comprehensive understanding of the IT applications landscape implemented at the Bank. It was followed by process understanding, mapping applications to the same, and understanding the financial risks posed by people, processes, and technology.

We also assessed the operating effectiveness of controls over granting, removal and periodical review of access rights. We further tested the segregation of duties, including preventive controls to ensure that access to change applications, the operating system, or databases in the production environment was granted only to authorized personnel.

Other areas that were assessed under the IT control environment were whether requests for access to systems were appropriately logged, reviewed and authorized. Entity-level controls related to policy and procedure were also part of our audit.

Where deficiencies were identified, we tested compensating controls or performed alternate procedures.

b) Identification and provisioning for non-performing assets ('NPAs') in relation to the Bank

Total Loans and Advances (Net of Provision) as at32228,3263219,407
(Refer to Notes 3.4,4.64.7

Key Audit Matter

The Guidance Note on Interest Income Recognition 2025, NFRS-9 Expected Credit Loss Related Guidelines 2024, Unified Directives issued by NRB, and provision of NFRSs, along with carve-outs issued by ICAN, prescribe the prudential norms for Income Recognition, Identification, Classification, and Provisioning of Non-Performing Loans and Advances.

The Bank is also required to apply its judgement to determine the identification and provision required against NPAs by applying quantitative as well as qualitative factors.

The risk of NPAs being identified is affected by factors such as stress and liquidity concerns in certain sectors.

The provisioning for identified NPAs is estimated based on ageing and classification of NPAs, recovery estimates, the value of security and other qualitative factors and is subject to the minimum provisioning norms specified by NRB. Further, in line with NFRS-9 (along with the carve-out issued by ICAN) and the Expected Credit Loss (ECL) Related Guidelines, 2024, issued by NRB, impairment is recognized at the higher of the provision as per NRB norms or the impairment loss computed under NFRS-9 ECL requirements.

As at 32 Ashad 2082, the total provision requirement as per NRB norms amounted to NPR 19,407 million while the impairment allowance determined under the NFRS-9 ECL model stood at NPR 14,598 million. In accordance with applicable requirements, the Bank has recognized the higher of the two amounts, i.e., NPR 19,407 million in Expected Credit Loss Related Guidelines, 2024 issued by NRB.

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

Our key procedures included, but were not limited to, the following:

a) Approval of new lending facilities against the Bank's credit policies and the performance of annual loan assessments.

b) Controls over the monitoring of credit quality which amongst other things included; the monitoring of overdue reports, drawing power limits, pending security creation.

c) Identification and classification of NPAs in line with NRB's Directives, the impairment requirement as per NFRS-9 and Expected Credit Loss Related Guidelines, 2024 issued by NRB.

d) Assessment of adequacy of NPA provisions being the higher of NRB norms and the impairment requirement as per NFRS-9 and Expected Credit Loss Related Guidelines, 2024 issued by NRB.

e) To test the identification of loans with default events and other triggers, we selected a sample of performing loans and independently assessed whether there was a need to classify such loans as NPAs.

f) Performed inquiries with the credit and risk departments to ascertain if there were indicators of stress or an occurrence of an event of default in a particular loan account or any product category that needed to be considered as NPA.

g) Held specific discussions with the management of the Bank on sectors where there is perceived credit risk and the steps taken to mitigate the risks in the identified sectors.

h) We tested the accuracy and completeness of the underlying data used in the ECL calculation.

i) Comparing the results of the ECL model against prudential provisioning requirements to ensure the higher of the two was recorded.

j) We assessed the incorporation of forward-looking information and management overlays into the ECL estimate.

Other Matters

As disclosed in Note 2 "Basis of preparation" of the consolidated financial statements, the financial statement of the subsidiary company - NIC ASIA Laghubitta Bittiya Sanstha Limited considered in the consolidated financial statements are certified by the management (not yet audited and approved by the regulatory body), and our opinion on the consolidated financial statements in so far as it relates to the amounts and disclosures included in respect of the subsidiary is based solely on such management certified financial statements.

We did not audit the financial statements of the subsidiary companies "NIC ASIA Capital Limited" and "NIC ASIA Laghubitta Bittiya Sanstha Limited", whose financial statements reflect total assets of NPR 22,396.96 million as at 32 Ashad 2082 (16 July 2025), total net profit after taxes, and net cash flows of NPR (332.18) million and NPR (11.3) million, respectively, for the year ended on 32 Ashad 2082 (16 July 2025). The financial statements have been audited by another auditor and the audit report of one of the subsidiary has been furnished to us by the management and our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, in so far as it relates to the amounts and disclosures included in respect of the subsidiary companies, is based solely on the report of another auditor.

Our opinion above on the consolidated financial statements, and our report on Other Legal and Regulatory requirements below, is not modified in respect of the above matters with respect to our reliance on the work done and the reports of the other auditors and the financial statements / financial information certified by the management.

Information other than the Consolidated Financial Statements and Auditor's Report thereon

The Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, including the report of the Board of Directors, but does not include the consolidated financial statements and our auditor's report which is expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditor's report.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with NFRS, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Bank or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Group's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibility for Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with NSAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with NSAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

* Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

* Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group's internal control.

* Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

* Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

* Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

* Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Report on the Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements

We have obtained information and explanations asked for, which, to the best of our knowledge and belief, were necessary for the purpose of our audit. In our opinion, the consolidated statement of financial position as at 32 Ashad 2082 (16 July 2025), the consolidated statement of profit or loss, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of cash flows, and the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year have been prepared in the format prescribed by the Nepal Rastra Bank Unified Directives No. 4 and in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act, 2063 and Section 59 of the Banks and Financial Institution Act, 2073 and are in agreement with the books of account maintained by the Bank, and proper books of account as required by law including relevant records relating to the preparation of the aforesaid financial statements have been kept by the Bank. In our opinion, the returns received from the branches were sufficient for the purpose of the audit though these statements were independently audited.

In our opinion, so far as appeared from our examination of the books, the Bank has maintained adequate capital funds and adequate provisions for possible impairment of assets in accordance with the directives of Nepal Rastra Bank.

To the best of our information and according to explanations given to us and so far appeared from our examination of the books of account of the Bank on a sample basis for the purpose of our audit, we have not come across cases where the Board of Directors or any employees of the Bank have acted contrary to the provisions of law relating to the accounts, or committed any misappropriation or caused loss or damage to the Bank and violated any directives of Nepal Rastra Bank or acted in a manner to jeopardize the interest and security of the Bank, its depositors and investors, except for the monetary fine imposed by Nepal Rastra Bank, through its letter to the Board of Directors of the Bank on 1 Poush 2082, on the former Chairman of the Board of Directors and the former Chief Executive Officer of the Bank (office bearer as on 32 Ashad 2082), pursuant to Section 100(2)(ga) of the Nepal Rastra Bank Act, 2058 (including the second amendment of 2073), for non-compliance with the provisions of the Banks and Financial Institutions Act 2073 and/or directives issued by NRB under it.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF NIC ASIA BANK LIMITED

Report on the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of NIC ASIA Bank Limited and its subsidiaries (referred to as the "Group"), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 32 Ashad 2082 (16 July 2025), and the consolidated statement of profit or loss, consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of cash flows, consolidated statement of changes in equity for the year 1 Shrawan 2081 to 32 Ashad 2082 (16 July 2025) and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 32 Ashad 2082 (16 July 2025), its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Nepal Financial Reporting Standards (NFRSs).

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Nepal Standards on Auditing (NSAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with ICAN's Handbook of Code of Ethics for professional accountants, together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of financial statements in Nepal, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAN's Handbook of Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

a) Information Technology (IT) systems and controls impacting financial reporting in relation to the Bank

Key Audit Matter

The Bank's IT environment is complex and comprises a large number of independent and interdependent IT systems used in its operations to process and record a high volume of transactions across numerous locations.

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

In assessing integrity of the IT systems relevant to financial reporting, our team gained an understanding of the Bank's IT infrastructure and systems supporting its financial reporting process for the evaluation and testing of general IT controls and application controls.

We gathered a comprehensive understanding of the IT applications landscape implemented at the Bank. It was followed by process understanding, mapping applications to the same, and understanding the financial risks posed by people, processes, and technology.

We also assessed the operating effectiveness of controls over granting, removal and periodical review of access rights. We further tested the segregation of duties, including preventive controls to ensure that access to change applications, the operating system, or databases in the production environment was granted only to authorized personnel.

Other areas that were assessed under the IT control environment were whether requests for access to systems were appropriately logged, reviewed and authorized. Entity-level controls related to policy and procedure were also part of our audit.

Where deficiencies were identified, we tested compensating controls or performed alternate procedures.

b) Identification and provisioning for non-performing assets ('NPAs') in relation to the Bank

Total Loans and Advances (Net of Provision) as at32228,3263219,407
(Refer to Notes 3.4,4.64.7

Key Audit Matter

The Guidance Note on Interest Income Recognition 2025, NFRS-9 Expected Credit Loss Related Guidelines 2024, Unified Directives issued by NRB, and provision of NFRSs, along with carve-outs issued by ICAN, prescribe the prudential norms for Income Recognition, Identification, Classification, and Provisioning of Non-Performing Loans and Advances.

The Bank is also required to apply its judgement to determine the identification and provision required against NPAs by applying quantitative as well as qualitative factors.

The risk of NPAs being identified is affected by factors such as stress and liquidity concerns in certain sectors.

The provisioning for identified NPAs is estimated based on ageing and classification of NPAs, recovery estimates, the value of security and other qualitative factors and is subject to the minimum provisioning norms specified by NRB. Further, in line with NFRS-9 (along with the carve-out issued by ICAN) and the Expected Credit Loss (ECL) Related Guidelines, 2024, issued by NRB, impairment is recognized at the higher of the provision as per NRB norms or the impairment loss computed under NFRS-9 ECL requirements.

As at 32 Ashad 2082, the total provision requirement as per NRB norms amounted to NPR 19,407 million while the impairment allowance determined under the NFRS-9 ECL model stood at NPR 14,598 million. In accordance with applicable requirements, the Bank has recognized the higher of the two amounts, i.e., NPR 19,407 million in Expected Credit Loss Related Guidelines, 2024 issued by NRB.

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

Our key procedures included, but were not limited to, the following:

a) Approval of new lending facilities against the Bank's credit policies and the performance of annual loan assessments.

b) Controls over the monitoring of credit quality which amongst other things included; the monitoring of overdue reports, drawing power limits, pending security creation.

c) Identification and classification of NPAs in line with NRB's Directives, the impairment requirement as per NFRS-9 and Expected Credit Loss Related Guidelines, 2024 issued by NRB.

d) Assessment of adequacy of NPA provisions being the higher of NRB norms and the impairment requirement as per NFRS-9 and Expected Credit Loss Related Guidelines, 2024 issued by NRB.

e) To test the identification of loans with default events and other triggers, we selected a sample of performing loans and independently assessed whether there was a need to classify such loans as NPAs.

f) Performed inquiries with the credit and risk departments to ascertain if there were indicators of stress or an occurrence of an event of default in a particular loan account or any product category that needed to be considered as NPA.

g) Held specific discussions with the management of the Bank on sectors where there is perceived credit risk and the steps taken to mitigate the risks in the identified sectors.

h) We tested the accuracy and completeness of the underlying data used in the ECL calculation.

i) Comparing the results of the ECL model against prudential provisioning requirements to ensure the higher of the two was recorded.

j) We assessed the incorporation of forward-looking information and management overlays into the ECL estimate.

Other Matters

As disclosed in Note 2 "Basis of preparation" of the consolidated financial statements, the financial statement of the subsidiary company - NIC ASIA Laghubitta Bittiya Sanstha Limited considered in the consolidated financial statements are certified by the management (not yet audited and approved by the regulatory body), and our opinion on the consolidated financial statements in so far as it relates to the amounts and disclosures included in respect of the subsidiary is based solely on such management certified financial statements.

We did not audit the financial statements of the subsidiary companies "NIC ASIA Capital Limited" and "NIC ASIA Laghubitta Bittiya Sanstha Limited", whose financial statements reflect total assets of NPR 22,396.96 million as at 32 Ashad 2082 (16 July 2025), total net profit after taxes, and net cash flows of NPR (332.18) million and NPR (11.3) million, respectively, for the year ended on 32 Ashad 2082 (16 July 2025). The financial statements have been audited by another auditor and the audit report of one of the subsidiary has been furnished to us by the management and our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, in so far as it relates to the amounts and disclosures included in respect of the subsidiary companies, is based solely on the report of another auditor.

Our opinion above on the consolidated financial statements, and our report on Other Legal and Regulatory requirements below, is not modified in respect of the above matters with respect to our reliance on the work done and the reports of the other auditors and the financial statements / financial information certified by the management.

Information other than the Consolidated Financial Statements and Auditor's Report thereon

The Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, including the report of the Board of Directors, but does not include the consolidated financial statements and our auditor's report which is expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditor's report.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with NFRS, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Bank or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Group's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibility for Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with NSAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with NSAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

* Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

* Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group's internal control.

* Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

* Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

* Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

* Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Report on the Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements

We have obtained information and explanations asked for, which, to the best of our knowledge and belief, were necessary for the purpose of our audit. In our opinion, the consolidated statement of financial position as at 32 Ashad 2082 (16 July 2025), the consolidated statement of profit or loss, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of cash flows, and the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year have been prepared in the format prescribed by the Nepal Rastra Bank Unified Directives No. 4 and in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act, 2063 and Section 59 of the Banks and Financial Institution Act, 2073 and are in agreement with the books of account maintained by the Bank, and proper books of account as required by law including relevant records relating to the preparation of the aforesaid financial statements have been kept by the Bank. In our opinion, the returns received from the branches were sufficient for the purpose of the audit though these statements were independently audited.

In our opinion, so far as appeared from our examination of the books, the Bank has maintained adequate capital funds and adequate provisions for possible impairment of assets in accordance with the directives of Nepal Rastra Bank.

To the best of our information and according to explanations given to us and so far appeared from our examination of the books of account of the Bank on a sample basis for the purpose of our audit, we have not come across cases where the Board of Directors or any employees of the Bank have acted contrary to the provisions of law relating to the accounts, or committed any misappropriation or caused loss or damage to the Bank and violated any directives of Nepal Rastra Bank or acted in a manner to jeopardize the interest and security of the Bank, its depositors and investors, except for the monetary fine imposed by Nepal Rastra Bank, through its letter to the Board of Directors of the Bank on 1 Poush 2082, on the former Chairman of the Board of Directors and the former Chief Executive Officer of the Bank (office bearer as on 32 Ashad 2082), pursuant to Section 100(2)(ga) of the Nepal Rastra Bank Act, 2058 (including the second amendment of 2073), for non-compliance with the provisions of the Banks and Financial Institutions Act 2073 and/or directives issued by NRB under it.
