Note 13 Valuation hierarchy for financial instruments at fair value
Level 1 Financial instruments traded in active markets are classified as level 1. A market is deemed to be active if the market prices are easily and regularly available from a stock exchange, broker, industry group, pricing service or regulatory authority, and these prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions at arm’s length. The market price used for financial assets is the applicable purchase price, while the applicable sales price is used for financial liabilities. Instruments included in level 1 comprise some treasury certificates.
Level 2 The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation methods. These valuation methods maximise the use of observable data where available and, as far as possible, are not based on the group’s own estimates. If all the material data required to determine the fair value of an instrument are observable data, the instrument is included in level 2. Instruments included in level 2 comprise loans to customers, equity instruments on the OTC list, other certificates and bonds, financial derivatives and all financial liabilities valued at fair value.
Level 3 If one or more data items are not based on observable market information, the instrument is included in level 3. Non-listed equity instruments, certain equity instruments on the OTC list and loans to customers valued at fair value are classified at level 3.
