Kwa niaba ya Bodi ya Wakurugenzi wa Benki ya CRDB, ninayofuraha kutoa ripoti ya Benki kwa mwaka ulioishia tarehe 31 Disemba 2009.
Mazingira ya BiasharaKwa ujumla mwaka 2009 ulikuwa na mazingira magumu sana ya biashara kutokana na mtikisiko wa uchumi duniani ulioanza mapema mwaka 2007. Mtikisiko huu ulianza kwa kuzikumba nchi zilizoendelea za Ulaya na Marekani. Mabenki mengi ya Ulaya yakiongozwa na ya Marekani yalishusha riba zao katika masoko ya fedha na mitaji, hata hivyo hali hii haikusaidia kuimarisha uchumi wa dunia.
Mdororo wa uchumi wa dunia, ulisababisha mataifa yaliyoendelea, kupunguza uagizaji wa bidhaa mbalimbali kutoka mataifa yanayoendelea ikiwemo Tanzania. Hali hii ilisababisha mazao ya biashara hususani pamba, kahawa, korosho na biashara ya utalii kuathiriwa sana.
Mwaka 2009 ulishuhudia changamoto nyingi katika uendeshaji wa biashara katika masoko ya fedha. Hali ilikuwa ya mkanganyiko na mparaganyiko mkubwa katika biashara ya kimataifa na kitaifa pia. Katika robo ya kwanza ya mwaka 2009, kulikuwa na mfumuko mkubwa wa bei, na thamani ya shilingi ilishuka.
Benki ililazimika kutumia mfumo mpya wa kibiashara ili kupunguza athari za mdororo wa uchumi duniani. Sambamba na hili, Benki iliweka mikakati mipya ili kutambua viashiria hatari katika mazingira halisi ya biashara. Kwa muktadha huu, mwaka 2009, Benki iliboresha taratibu na masharti katika utoaji mikopo kwa wateja wakubwa na wadogo ili kulinda mtaji wa biashara. Pia Benki iliweka mikakati mahsusi ya kupunguza gharama mbalimbali za uendeshaji na kuboresha usimamizi wa makusanyo ya ada mbalimbali. Pia Benki ilitumia fursa iliyotolewa na serikali mwezi Juni 2009 katika kuwadhamini wanunuzi wa kahawa na pamba, ili kulinda mtaji wa Benki usiathiriwe na mdororo wa uchumi duniani. Mkakati wa serikali wa kunusuru uchumi kutokana na athari za mdororo wa masoko ya fedha duniani ulitangazwa na Mh. Rais Jakaya Mrisho Kikwete.
MatokeoPamoja na mtikisiko ulioukumba uchumi wa dunia, Benki ya CRDB, ilifanya vizuri katika biashara yake, hata kuendelea kuwa benki bora nchini. Katika kipindi hiki, rasilimali za Benki ziliongezeka kwa asilimia 28, kutoka shilingi 1,450 bilioni mwishoni mwa mwezi Disemba 2008 mpaka ku�kia shilingi 1,855 bilioni mwaka 2009. Amana ziliongezeka kwa asilimia 27.3 mpaka ku�kia shilingi 1,621 bilioni mwishoni mwa mwezi Disemba 2009.
Taarifa ya Mwenyekiti
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 200910
Benki ilipata faida kabla ya kodi ya shilingi 62 bilioni ikilinganishwa na faida kabla ya kodi ya shilingi 60 bilioni katika mwaka wa 2008. Baada ya kodi, faida ilikuwa shilingi 46 bilioni ikiwa ni ongezeko la asilimia 15 ikilinganishwa na shilingi 40.5 bilioni zilizopatikana mwaka wa 2008.
Maendeleo ya BiasharaBenki imeendelea kutekeleza mikakati kwa lengo la kukuza biashara ya Benki kwa wateja wadogo na wakubwa kama ilivyokusudiwa kwenye mkakati wa biashara wa Benki. Mafanikio makubwa yaliyo�kiwa ni pamoja na kupanua njia za ku�kisha huduma kwa wateja kwa kufungua matawi mapya, kuongezeka asasi zinazoshirikiana na Benki, kuweka mashine mpya za kutolea fedha (ATMs) na kusambaza mashine za malipo (Point of Sale machines). Pia bidhaa na huduma za Benki zimeendelea kupitiwa na kuboreshwa ili kukidhi matakwa ya wateja.
Mwaka 2009, Benki ilipata mafanikio kwa kuorodheshwa katika Soko la Hisa la Dar es Salaam (DSE). Mchakato wa kuorodheshwa katika soko la hisa ulifuatia utekelezaji wa maazimio ya Mkutano Mkuu maalum wa wanahisa uliofanyika Disemba 6, 2008. Utekelezaji wa maazimio ya Mkutano Mkuu maalum wa wanahisa ulikwenda sambamba na gawio la hisa 1 ya bonasi kwa kila hisa 1, pia gawio la hisa stahili 1 kwa kila hisa 10, pia hisa kugawanywa katika mafungu manne sanjari na IPO. Benki iliorodheshwa rasmi katika soko la hisa tarehe Juni 17, 2009, kwa bei ya IPO ya shilingi 150 kwa hisa.
GawioBodi ya Wakurugenzi itapendekeza kwenye Mkutano Mkuu wa wanahisa gawio la shilingi 7 kwa hisa. Jumla ya gawio ni shilingi 15.2 bilioni, ikiwa ni ongezeko la mara tatu na nusu katika mwaka likilinganishwa na jumla ya gawio la shilingi 4.4 bilioni lililotolewa mwaka 2008. Bodi ya Wakurugenzi ilipitia sera ya gawio na kuweka ukomo wa chini wa asilimia 35 ya faida ya mwaka, hali mradi matakwa ya sheria yawe yamezingatiwa.
MatarajioPamoja na hali ya uchumi kuwa haitabiriki kwa kipindi cha mwaka 2010, Benki itaendelea kujizatiti katika kusimamia mfumo wake wa biashara, huku ikijikita katika kupata fursa mpya za kibiashara. Benki itaendelea kutumia viashiria vipya vya kubaini athari za kibiashara ili kulinda mtaji wa biashara kwa maslahi ya wateja na wanahisa.

Business DevelopmentDuring the year, the Bank continued to pursue strategies aimed at ensuring growth in retail and corporate banking business as envisaged in the Bank’s Business Strategy. Key milestones include expansion of service delivery channels by opening new branches, recruitment of new micro�nance partners, installation of new ATMs and Point of Sale machines. Also, products and services were repackaged and enhanced in line with changing customer demands. During the year, the Bank also achieved the milestone of getting its shares listed at the Dar es Salaam Stock Exchange (DSE). The process started with implementation of the resolutions made at the Extra-Ordinary Shareholders’ Meeting held on December 6, 2008, including o�er of bonus shares at a rate of 1 to1; a rights issue at a rate of 1 for each of 10 shares held; split of shares into 4; and an IPO (public o�er). The actual listing took place on 17 June 2009 at IPO price of Tshs. 150 per share.
DividendThe Board will recommend to the Annual General Meeting a dividend of Tshs. 7 per share. Total amount of dividend to be paid out is Tshs.15.2 billion, substantially higher than Tshs. 4.4 billion paid in 2008. This translate to increase of dividend by three and half times.
The Board has reviewed Dividend Policy in 2010 to the e�ect that annual dividend payment will at least be 35 percent of net pro�t earned, provided that business and regulatory requirements are met.
Prospects for 2010In 2010 and despite unpredictable economic conditions, CRDB Bank will remain focused on maintaining its core business model and developing opportunities for growth on a conservative and sustainable basis. This will be undertaken within a framework of prudent risk management to ensure capital and liquidity by protection and value creation for all our customers and shareholders.
Changes in the BoardI would like to report changes in the Board during the year. At the Annual General Meeting held on 20th June 2009, Ms. Joyce W. Luhanga, Dr. Sylvia S. Temu and Mr. Joseph C. Machange retired. Ms. Joyce W. Luhanga and Mr. Joseph C. Machange o�ered for re-election and were duly re-elected. Mr. Juma A. Abdulrahman was elected for the �rst time, I welcome him to the Board. Dr. Sylvia S. Temu served in the Board since 2004, I wish to recognize her valuable contributions to the Board and wish her well in her future endeavors.

Mwaka 2009 ulikuwa ni mwaka mgumu kibiashara katika masoko ya taasisi za kifedha za kitaifa na kimataifa. Mtikisiko wa kiuchumi duniani uliziathiri sana taasisi za fedha duniani kote. Benki ya CRDB pia iliathiriwa na mtikisiko wa masoko ya fedha na uchumi duniani. Benki ya CRDB ilijizatiti kupunguza athari mbaya za mtikisiko wa uchumi duniani katika biashara ili mahesabu na mizania (balance sheet) yake isivurugike.
Uwezo wa Benki katika kudhibiti athari za mtikisiko wa uchumi duniani, umedhihirisha kwamba Benki ya CRDB imejengwa katika misingi imara ya kanuni za kibenki. Pia uimara wa Benki katikati ya msukosuko wa uchumi duniani umedhihirisha ubora wa mpango mkakati wa Benki katika kuendesha na kusimamia utendaji kibiashara. Mpango mkakati wa Benki sanjari na mfumo wake unalenga kuendesha biashara katika mifumo tofauti tofauti kuhakikisha kwamba rasilimali za Benki zimewekezwa kwenye mikondo ya aina nyingi pamoja na kuwahudumia wateja reja reja (retail banking). Katika misingi hii tunao uwezo wa kuchukua tahadhari katika kudhibiti athari za mtikisiko katika mikopo, ukwasi (liquidity), ubora wa amana, kudhibiti hatari katika biashara na gharama za uendeshaji biashara bila kubadili msingi wa dira yetu.
Benki iliendelea kutekeleza mikakati yake kibiashara kwa kutumia teknolojia bora iliyopo katika soko. Kwa mantiki hii, mwaka 2009 katika robo ya kwanza, Benki iliboresha mfumo wake wa kuendesha shughuli zake na kuweka mfumo wa kisasa zaidi katika idara ya Hazina na ile ihusikanayo na biashara za kimataifa, yaani Trade Finance. Sambamba na maboresho haya, Benki iliboresha huduma za kibenki kwa njia ya simu za mkononi kwa kuweka mfumo mpya. Huduma hii ilipewa nembo ya ‘CRDB SimBanking’. Katika robo ya pili ya mwaka ubadilishaji wa mtambo mkuu wa kompyuta wa Benki wa ‘Bankmaster’ kwenda mfumo mpya wa kisasa zaidi wenye chapa ya “The Bank Fusion - Universal Banking” ulianza .
Katika mwaka 2009, Benki ilipata mafanikio makubwa ikiwa ni pamoja na kusogeza huduma zake karibu zaidi na wateja kwa kupanua mtandao wake kwa kasi zaidi. Mpaka mwishoni mwa mwaka 2009, matawi mapya 6 yalikuwa yamefunguliwa na matawi mengine 10 yalikuwa katika hatua mbalimbali za ujenzi. Aidha, matawi mawili ya Songea na Shinyanga yalifanyiwa ukarabati mkubwa, yakaboreshwa na kufanywa ya kisasa zaidi. Mashine za kutolea fedha (ATMs) 32 zikiwemo za Easy Deposit yaani zile ATM ambazo mteja anaweza kuweka fedha katika akaunti yake ziliongezwa katika mtandao wa Benki na kufanya jumla ya ATM zinazofanya kazi kuwa 132. Pia huduma za Micro�nance ziliendelea kuimarika ambapo asasi shiriki ziliongezeka kutoka 376 mwaka 2008 mpaka ku�kia 425 mwaka 2009. Hii inadhihirisha dhamira ya Benki kuwa�kia watu wengi zaidi ambao bado hawajawa na huduma za kibenki. Huduma za biashara kwa wateja wadogo na wa kati (SMEs) ziliendelea kuboreshwa katika matawi yote ya Benki. Mikopo iliyotolewa kwa wateja iliongezeka kwa asilimia 95 kutoka shilingi bilioni 60 mwaka 2008 hadi shilingi bilioni 118.1 mwishoni mwa mwaka 2009.

Kwa upande wa maendeleo ya bidhaa na huduma za Benki, mkazo ulikuwa katika kuzipitia upya bidhaa zetu ili kuzipa ubora ambao utakidhi mahitaji ya wateja kwa sasa. Benki ilizindua mpango maalum wa kujiwekea akiba kwa wanawake, kwa kupitia akaunti maalum ya Malkia. Kwa mara ya kwanza Benki ilianzisha Mkataba wa Huduma kwa Wateja (Customer Service Charter) na kutoa msisitizo kwa kila mfanyakazi wa Benki aishi na kufanya kazi kwa kuzingatia ahadi zilizo kwenye ‘Customer Service Charter’.
Benki ya CRDB ilifanikiwa kumaliza mwaka kwa faida, ambapo faida kabla ya kodi ilikuwa shilingi bilioni 62 ikilinganishwa na shilingi bilioni 60 kwa mwaka 2008. Faida iliyopatikana mwaka 2009 ilitokana na mpango mkakati wa Benki katika kudhibiti hatari (risks) zote katika biashara na masoko kwa ujumla. Benki iliongeza tengo la fedha (provisions) kukidhi hatari ya hasara inayoweza kutokana na mikopo na ku�kia shilingi bilioni 18.2 ikilinganishwa na shilingi bilioni 5.0 mwaka 2008. Kiasi hiki cha tengo kilikuwa sawa na asilimia 1.9 ya mikopo iliyotolewa ya jumla ya shilingi bilioni 950 ku�kia Disemba 2009. Jumla ya rasilimali ziliongezeka kutokana na ongezeko la amana pamoja na usimamizi bora wa madeni. Amana za wateja ziliongezeka kwa asilimia 27.3 mpaka shilingi bilioni 1,621, hii imedhihirisha imani kubwa waliyonayo wateja kwa Benki ya CRDB. Rasilimali ziliongezeka kwa asilimia 28 mpaka ku�ka shilingi bilioni 1,855 kutoka shilingi bilioni 1,449 mwaka 2008. Mikopo iliongezeka kwa asilimia 14 na ku�kia shilingi bilioni 950 ikilinganishwa na shilingi bilioni 837 mwaka 2008.
Mwaka 2010 unatarajiwa kuwa na changamoto nyingi zaidi. Hata hivyo kwa kuwa na teknolojia mpya iliyo bora tangu 2009, mazingira mazuri ya biashara, na timu imara ya wafanyakazi makini waliobobea katika taaluma ya kibenki, tuna uhakika wa kufanikiwa pamoja na changamoto zilizopo. Tumejizatiti kuendelea kutekeleza mikakati na kanuni endelevu za kibiashara, kutimiza malengo tuliojiwekea, kuwa wabunifu na kuendelea kuboresha huduma kwa wateja. Tutaendelea kuimarisha ufanisi kitaaluma na kutilia mkazo maadili mema ya utendaji kazi kwa wafanyakazi. Tutaendelea kudhibiti hatari (risks) kwa biashara zetu na kuendelea kufanya upembuzi yakinifu ili kupata maeneo muafaka kwa biashara, sanjari na kudhibiti gharama za uendeshaji. Mikakati yote hii ni katika kulinda mtaji wa biashara wa Benki, na kuzalisha faida na gawio zuri kwa wanahisa wetu.
Ni matumaini yangu kuwa Bodi ya Wakurugenzi, wanahisa na wafanyakazi wataunga mkono jitihada hizi zote. Napenda kuchukua fursa hii kuwashukuru wadau wote, pia wateja wetu, serikali na wasimamizi wa taasisi za kifedha (regulators) kwa imani yao kwetu na kwa mchango wao kwa mafanikio yote tuliyopata mwaka 2009.

The year 2009 was an exceptional year marked by the global �nancial crisis and challenges for markets and �nancial institutions everywhere in the world. While CRDB Bank was not immune from the e�ects of the crisis, our focus from early in the year was geared at anticipating and mitigating, to the extent possible, its adverse impact on the Bank’s �nancial performance and balance sheet. The Bank’s ability to wither the storm re�ects the strong foundations on which we have built our Bank. It also demonstrates the robustness of our business strategy and model which focuses on portfolio diversi�cation and retail banking. We were therefore able to respond to the crisis by taking precautionary and corrective measures with particular focus on loans, liquidity, asset quality, risk and cost management without changing our basic strategies.
The Bank continued to implement, among others, its key strategy of making sure that the operations are supported by the cutting edge technology available in the market. Pursuant to this the Bank completed in the �rst quarter of 2009 the overhaul and automation of processes in the Treasury and Trade Finance units, and upgrade of its SMS Banking to new platform and re-branding it ‘CRDB SimBanking’. This latter product enables customers to bank through their cellular phones. Moreover, implementation of a new Core Banking System - the Bank Fusion-Universal Banking (BFUB) was initiated in the second quarter of the year.
In the year under review, CRDB Bank achieved several milestones - and I would mention only a few here. First, in its e�orts to bring services closer to customers the Bank speeded up network expansion. As at the end of 2009, six new branches had been opened while another 10 were in various stages of construction. Moreover, 2 existing branches (Shinyanga and Songea) were refurbished and expanded; 32 ATMs, including Easy Deposit ATMs that accept cash deposits, were added to the network bringing the total operating ATMs to 132. The number of partnering Micro�nance Institutions (MFIs) rose from 376 in 2008 to 425 in 2009, demonstrating our commitment to serve the broader Tanzanian population that has never seen banking before. The specially-tailored SME programme was fully mainstreamed in all branches with its loan portfolio increasing by almost 95% from Tshs. 60 billion in 2008 to Tshs.118.1 billion at end of 2009.
In the area of product development focus was put on repackaging and enhancing features of existing products in line with changing customer demands. The Bank introduced a special saving plan account targeting, but not limited to, women with a brand name of “Malkia Account”. For the �rst time also, the Bank initiated a Customer Service Charter and sensitized all its sta� to live by the promise made therein to customers.
CRDB Bank was able to end the year on a positive pro�tability note, posting a pre- tax pro�t of Tshs. 62 billion compared to Tshs. 60 billion for 2008. The Bank’s pro�ts for 2009 were impacted by our conservative stance towards prevailing market and business risks. The Bank increased its
Managing Director’s Report
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 19
provisions to Tshs. 18.2 billion compared to Tshs. 5.0 billion in 2008 to adequately cover identi�ed loan risks. This decision will maintain our speci�c provisions against identi�ed problem loans at 1.9% of total outstanding loans and overdrafts of Tshs. 950 billion at December 2009.
Assets growth was accelerated with focus directed towards deposit accumulation and liability management. As a result, customer deposits increased by a solid 28% to Tshs. 1,621 billion, re�ecting our customers’ strong underlying con�dence in the Bank, while total assets growth reached Tshs. 1,855 billion from Tshs.1,449 billion recorded in 2008. The net loan portfolio grew by 14% to Tshs. 950 billion compared to Tshs. 837 billion in 2008.
In 2010, we still expect to face unprecedented challenges.

SHUGHULI ZA MWAKA
MAPITIO YA UCHUMI
Hali ya Uchumi Kwa zaidi ya miaka minne mfululizo uchumi wa Tanzania ulikua kwa wastani wa asilimia 7.2 kwa mwaka. Kutokana mgogoro wa kifedha duniani, ukuaji wa uchumi wa Tanzania ulipungua mpaka asilimia 5.6 kwa mwaka 2009. Mgogoro wa uchumi duniani ulipelekea kupungua kwa mahitaji na bei za mazao makuu ya biashara yauzwayo nchi za nje hasa pamba, kahawa na mazao ya bustani (horticulture). Zaidi ya hayo, mapato yatokanayo na biashara za utalii na usa�rishaji na pia uwekezaji toka nje uliathirika vibaya na hali hiyo. Kwa mwaka 2009, serikali iliandaa mpango wa kuchochea uchumi na kupunguza athari zitokanazo na mgogoro wa uchumi kwa taasisi za fedha na hasa benki za biashara. Matunda ya juhudi za serikali yalianza kuonekana mwishoni mwa mwaka 2009. Moja ya fundisho la mgogoro wa uchumi duniani ni kuwa uchumi wa nchi unatawaliwa na sekta za kilimo na madini na hii inalazimisha Benki na taasisi za kifedha kuandaa sera na mikakati ya kutoa mikopo na huduma nyingine za kifedha kwa sekta hizi.
Matarajio ya Ukuaji wa Uchumi kwa Mwaka 2010Uwekezaji wa kutoka nje, biashara na utalii kwa ujumla vinatarajiwa kuanza kukua katika kipindi cha mwaka 2010. Hata hivyo, ukuaji uliodorora wa uchumi wa dunia na mahitaji madogo kwa mazao ya kilimo vitaendelea kuathiri ukuaji wa uchumi wa Tanzania. Sekta za ujenzi, madini pamoja na huduma zinatarajiwa kufanya vizuri. Ukuaji katika sekta ya ujenzi unatarajiwa kutokana na misaada toka nje hasa katika ujenzi wa miundombinu ya barabara na nishati. Ukuaji katika sekta ya huduma unatarajiwa kuchangiwa zaidi na ukuaji wa mawasiliano ya simu, usa�rishaji na huduma za kifedha. Pato la taifa linatarajiwa kukua kwa kiwango cha asilimia 6.5 kwa mwaka 2010 ikilinganishwa na asilimia 5.6 kwa mwaka 2009.
Maendeleo Mengineyo ya Kiuchumi
Ujazi wa Fedha na Sarafu za NchiniKatika kipindi cha mwaka 2009, ongezeko la fedha nchini lilikuwa la wastani, kutokana na ukuaji mdogo wa mikopo iliyotolewa na mabenki kwa sekta binafsi. Kwa ujumla, wastani wa ukuaji wa mikopo kwa mwaka kwa sekta binafsi ulipungua kutoka asilimia 26 mwaka 2008 mpaka asilimia 17.5 kwa mwaka 2009. Ongezeko la ujazi wa fedha kwa tafsiri pana (M3) lili�kia asilimia 18.4 ukilinganisha na ongezeko la asilimia 25.9 mwaka 2008.
Hali ya Mfumuko wa BeiKiwango cha mfumuko wa bei kwa mwaka kimekuwa kikibadilika mwezi hadi mwezi hadi ku�kia Disemba 2009; lakini kwa wastani kilikuwa ni asilimia 12.5. Ongezeko la mfumuko wa bei lilichangiwa hasa na ongezeko la bei za vyakula. Licha ya mavuno ya kutosha mwaka 2009, bei za vyakula zilikuwa juu kutokana na gharama za usa�rishaji na miundombinu mibovu pamoja na uuzaji wa vyakula nchi jirani ambazo zilikuwa na uhaba wa chakula. Pamoja na athari
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 200922
zinazotokana na miundombinu na sera ya soko la vyakula kuendelea kuweko, mwenendo unaashiria kuimarika kwa bei za mafuta duniani ambako kutachangia kupungua kwa mfumuko wa bei mwaka 2010.
UTENDAJI WA BENKI YA CRDB MWAKA 2009
HUDUMA ZA KIBENKI KWA WATEJA WA REJAREJAMwaka 2009 ulikuwa wa kuimarisha ukuaji na uongezekaji wa huduma za kibenki na uwezo wa Benki kutoa huduma kwa wateja binafsi na wafanyabiashara wadogo wadogo. Ili kuboresha huduma kwa kundi hili la wateja, Benki ilitekeleza mikakati mingi ikiwemo ufunguzi wa matawi mapya, uingizaji sokoni huduma bunifu na mipango iliyowezesha Benki kujijenga zaidi kwenye soko kama Benki imara na endelevu. Benki imeendelea na mipango yake miwili mikubwa ya kuboresha huduma kwa wateja katika matawi pamoja na kuwaongezea wateja huduma bora zaidi za kiubunifu zikiambatana na njia mbadala za utoaji wa huduma ili kukidhi mahitaji yao (internet banking, SimBanking na POS). Mabadiliko ya kiteknolojia yameiwezesha Benki kupanua mtandao wake wa mawasiliano kwa matawi yote hivyo kuongeza tija katika kufanikisha miamala ya kibenki na kuziongezea uwezo mashine za kuweka na kutolea fedha (ATM).
Benki imeanza kukamilisha mabadiliko ya mfumo wake wa utoaji huduma wenye lengo la kujumuisha na kurahisisha utoaji wa huduma katika matawi na benki nzima kwa ujumla. Mifumo hii itaiwezesha Benki kutoa huduma bora zaidi na zenye tija. Benki inategemea kuzindua rasmi mfumo huu katika robo ya kwanza ya mwaka 2010.
Upanuzi wa Mtandao wa BenkiMwaka 2009, Benki iliendeleza jitihada zake za kupanua mtandao wake wa matawi (ya kawaida na yanayotembea) ili kufanikisha azma yake ya kuwa na tawi katika nusu ya wilaya zote za nchi i�kapo mwaka 2012. Kwa mwaka huu wa 2009 Benki ilifungua matawi 6 ambayo ni: Marangu, Zanzibar, Kibaha, Kariakoo, Nyanza na Mabibo. Maendeleo haya yanaifanya Benki kushikilia nafasi ya pili kwa ukubwa kwa kipimo cha matawi. Kampuni yetu tanzu ya Micro�nance pia imeongeza asasi shiriki na ku�kia 425 toka 376 mwaka 2008.
Biashara ya KadiBiashara ya kadi imeendelea kuleta manufaa kwa wateja wa aina zote na mwaka 2009 ulikuwa ni mwaka ulioshuhudia mabadiliko makubwa katika biashara ya kadi, lengo likiwa ni kuongeza mapato, kuimarisha usalama kwa watumiaji na kuongeza ushindani kwa mawakala wa Benki kwa kutoa huduma kwa urahisi zaidi. Kadi za Benki ya CRDB zimefanyiwa marekebisho na kuweza kukidhi viwango vya kimataifa kwa usalama thabiti wa kadi ‘EMV compliance’ na sasa inawapa wateja wake wa TemboCardVisa kadi ambazo ni salama zaidi. TemboCardVisa ni kadi pekee Tanzania iliyopata uthibitisho kamili wa ‘EMV compliance’.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 23
Kwa umakini mkubwa, Benki ililenga kuliteka soko la Zanzibar ambalo lina utajiri mkubwa wa biashara za utalii na burudani. Benki haikuwahi kuwa na mawakala wa biashara ya kadi visiwani humo kabla ya mwaka huu. Lakini kwa kipindi kifupi tu Benki imefanikiwa kupata mawakala zaidi ya 30. Biashara hii inatarajiwa kukua maradufu kutokana na ufunguzi wa tawi la Benki katika visiwa vya Zanzibar.
TemboCard za TRA na TANAPA ambazo ni kadi maalum kuhudumia wateja wa TANAPA na TRA ziliboreshwa ili kufanya kazi katika mfumo wa kisasa zaidi unaounganishwa moja kwa moja na mtandao wa Benki. Uboreshaji huu unawawezesha wateja wetu kupata taarifa za kila muamala upitao kwenye akaunti zao, papo kwa papo (online).
Hadi ku�kia mwishoni wa mwaka 2009, Benki ilikuwa na zaidi ya kadi 605,936 sokoni, na zaidi ya vituo 502 vya wafanyabiashara wanaopokea malipo kwa kutumia vifaa vya POS.
Biashara ya Wateja Wadogo na wa KatiMikakati iliyofanywa mwaka 2009 kwa wateja wadogo na wa kati ilisababisha ongezeko la wateja na biashara kwa Benki kwenye mikopo na amana na kuingiza mapato zaidi. Biashara ya huduma kwa wateja wadogo na wa kati imeendelea kukua kila mwaka kama ilivyojionyesha kwenye ongezeko la mikopo na amana kutoka kwenye kundi hili. Katika mikopo yenye thamani ya shilingi 99.8 bilioni iliyotolewa kwa sekta hii ni shilingi 40 billioni tu ambazo hazijarejeshwa (ambazo muda wa kurejeshwa hauja�ka). Hii inamaanisha kuwa mikopo hii imekuwa ikirejeshwa katika muda muafaka. Mwaka 2009, zaidi ya mikopo 1,156 yenye wastani wa shilingi 50 milioni kwa kila mkopo ilitolewa. Hili ni ongezeko la shilingi 20 milioni ikilinganishwa na wastani wa shilingi 30 milioni kwa mwaka uliopita. Riba na mapato mengine yatokanayo na mikopo yali�kia zaidi ya shilingi 6.75 bilioni kwa mwaka 2009. Hadi mwisho wa mwaka 2009, mikopo iliyo hatarini ilikuwa asilimia 1.58.
Mwaka 2009, Benki pia ilianzisha mfumo maalum wa kutoa mikopo kwa kununua korosho katika maghala mkoani Lindi. Hadi mwishoni mwa mwaka zaidi ya shilingi 7 bilioni zilikuwa zimetolewa kama mikopo kwa vyama vya wakulima mkoani humo. Mikopo yote pamoja na riba stahili ilirudishwa katika muda muafaka. Biashara hii ya kufadhili mauzo ya zao la korosho inatarajiwa kuongezeka sana kutokana na ukweli kuwa mfumo huu umeanza kufahamika kwa wadau wengi wa sekta hiyo.
Huduma za Wateja Wadogo Wadogo (Micro�nance)Kwa mwaka 2009, huduma kwa wateja wenye shughuli ndogo ndogo zilizotolewa na Kampuni Tanzu ya CRDB Micro�nance Company zilishuhudia ukuaji mkubwa na kusambaa kwake kwenye mikoa 23 kati ya mikoa 26 ya Tanzania na kuzi�kia wilaya 112 kati ya wilaya zote 136 za nchi hii kupitia asasi washirika 425 wanaowezesha utoaji wa huduma za kifedha kwa wajasiriamali
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 200924
571,476 wadogo wadogo. Machache ya mafanikio yaliyopatikana ni yafuatayo:
• Ukopeshaji wa wanachama wa SACCOS wenye kujishughulisha na kilimo cha kisasa cha zabibu kwa kutumia mfumo wa umwagiliaji wa maji ya kunyunyiza (Drip Irrigation) wilayani Chamwino (Dodoma).
• Utekelezaji wa mpango unaolenga kufadhili kilimo katika vituo mbali mbali vya uongezaji thamani (value chain) kutoka hatua ya kulima hadi sokoni.
• Uboreshaji wa ufanisi wa asasi washirika kwa kuwasaidia kutekeleza programu ya kompyuta yenye kurahisisha uendeshaji wa masuala ya kifedha (CRDB Finance solution software). Suluhisho hili limeshapelekwa kwa zaidi ya asasi washirika 70 na kwa kiasi kikubwa umesaidia kudhibiti hatari na hivyo kuboresha utendaji.
• Uanzishwaji wa bidhaa rejareja za Bima.
• Kuanzishwa kwa kitengo cha huduma za kulipia za ushauri wa masuala ya utoaji huduma kwa wateja wadogo wadogo (Micro�nance Consultancy Unit).
HUDUMA KWA WATEJA WAKUBWAKatika mwaka 2009, mikopo kwa wateja wakubwa ilitawaliwa na ukuaji mdogo na uchaguzi wa maeneo au sekta za kuongezea mikopo na kuzingatia umuhimu wa kuendelea kufanya biashara na baadhi ya wateja waliopata misaada toka serikalini ili kuchochea mchango wao katika uchumi. Katika mwaka huu, Benki ilitekeleza mikakati iliyolenga kupunguza utoaji wa mikopo kwa sekta za pamba na kahawa ambazo zilipata hasara kubwa msimu wa 2008/2009. Wateja wetu wengi wakubwa hususani wakulima walijulishwa juu ya mwenendo wa kidunia (kimasoko) na umuhimu wa kuwa makini wanapotafuta mikopo ya kuendeleza shughuli zao.
Licha ya mtizamo wa kiha�dhina kuhusu mikopo, katika mwaka 2009 Benki iliendelea kutoa mikopo kwa sekta nyingine za uchumi na kuendelea kufadhili biashara za kimataifa kwa wateja wake katika tasnia mbalimbali za uchumi. Mojawapo ya mafanikio ya kujivunia ni juhudi za maa�sa biashara wa kimataifa na timu za maa�sa uhusiano wetu zilizopelekea kupata biashara na kutoa huduma kwa wateja muhimu katika sekta mbalimbali za uchumi.
Jumla ya mikopo ya Benki ilikua kwa asilimia 13.4 kutoka shilingi 836.8 bilioni mwishoni mwa mwezi Disemba, 2008 mpaka shilingi 949.5 bilioni mwezi Disemba 2009. Katika jumla hii mikopo kwa wateja wakubwa ilikua kwa asilimia 87.
Katika mwaka wa 2009 wafanyakazi wa kitengo cha Benki kinachohudumia wateja wa mashirika na taasisi kilifanikiwa kukusanya amana kutoka katika taasisi mbalimbali za kiserikali na zisizo za kiserikali kwa kutumia mtandao wetu wa kibenki nchini kote. Sehemu kubwa ya amana ya Benki ambazo zilikua kutoka shilingi 1.2 trilioni mnamo tarehe 31 Disemba, 2008 mpaka shilingi 1.6 trilioni tarehe 31 Disemba 2009 ilitokana na kundi hili la wateja.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 25
MIKOPOMikopo sa� (pungufu tengo la mikopo chechefu na riba ambayo haijalipwa) ilikua kwa asilimia 13 kutoka shilingi bilioni 837 ilipo�ka tarehe 31 Disemba 2008 mpaka shilingi bilioni 949 ilipo�ka 31 Disemba 2009. Sekta ya kilimo iliendelea kuchukua sehemu kubwa ya mikopo kwa kuwa na asilimia 26 ya mikopo yote, ikifuatiwa na biashara (asilimia 17). Mgao wa mikopo kisekta ulikuwa kama ifuatavyo:

UTENDAJI WA HAZINA YA BENKIKitengo cha Hazina cha Benki kina majukumu ya kusimamia gharama za fedha, ukwasi na hatari zitokanazo na shughuli za uwekezaji wa hazina ya Benki pamoja na biashara na mauzo ya fedha za ndani na nje. Idara hii ina vitengo vya soko la fedha, kubadili fedha za kigeni na mauzo. Kwa mwaka 2009, licha ya kushuka kwa riba kutokana na athari za msukosuko wa kifedha duniani Benki ilionyesha mafanikio ya kuridhisha katika mapato yake yanayotokana na kitengo cha Hazina kwa kuwekeza rasilimali kwenye fedha za kigeni.
Mapato ya biashara ya fedha za kigeni yali�kia shillingi bilioni 15.2 mwaka 2009 ikilinganishwa na shilingi bilioni 13 mwaka 2008 ikiwa ni sawa na ongezeko la asilimia 17. Mapato kutoka biashara ya fedha za ndani yali�kia shilingi bilioni 28.5 mwaka 2009 ikilinganishwa na shilingi bilioni 23 mwaka 2008 ikiwa ni ongezeko la asilimia 24. Mafanikio haya yali�kiwa katika kipindi cha mabadiliko ya soko la fedha la nje na kushuka kwa viwango vya riba katika soko la fedha nchini. Viwango vya mapato ya hawala na amana za serikali zilikuwa kwa asilimia 7.76 katika mwaka 2009 ikilinganishwa na asilimia 8.93 kwa mwaka 2008.
UDHIBITI WA HATARI YA HASARAKwa asili ya biashara za kibenki, udhibiti wa hatari ni kitu cha muhimu sana. Mwaka 2007 Benki ilianzisha kitengo maalumu kwa ajili ya kupunguza hasara zinazoweza kutokea na mwaka 2009 ulikuwa ni mwaka wake wa tatu wa ufanyaji kazi. Katika hali ya mgogoro wa kiuchumi, uchunguzi wa makini umekuwa ukifanyika katika kusimamia hatari katika utendaji, taratibu na utekelezaji wa sera mikakati ya biashara.
Mfumo mkuu mpya wa Teknohama ambao Benki imenunua kwa ajili ya shughuli za kibenki na biashara ya kifedha umekuwa imara na umepunguza hatari za utendaji kwa kutahadharisha uwezekano wa kutokea kwa hatari kwa muda muafaka. Kwa kuwa mabenki mengi yamekuwa yakiathirika na udanganyifu na wizi wa fedha na hasara zinazosababishwa na mambo mengine, kitengo cha udhibiti wa hatari ya hasara kilianzisha kiungo maalumu kilichoitwa ‘piga mbiu’ (whistle blowing) kwa ajili ya kutoa taarifa za wizi au uhalifu mwingine. Kiungo hiki kinaweza ku�kiwa na watu wote yaani wafanyakazi wa Benki na wateja wa Benki na inapatikana katika tovuti ya ndani ya Benki yaani intranet na tovuti ya Benki ya CRDB (www.crdbbank.com).
RASILIMALI WATUKu�kia Disemba 31, 2009, Benki ilikuwa na jumla ya wafanyakazi 1,311 kati yao 806 (62%) wakiwa wanaume na 505 (38%) wakiwa ni wanawake. Katika ngazi ya menejimenti asilimia 24.8 ni wanawake. Ongezeko la wafanyakazi kwa mwaka 2009 lilikuwa asilimia 5 ukilinganisha na asilimia 7.4 katika kipindi cha mwaka 2008. Ongezeka hili liliendana na ukuaji wa Benki na mtandao wake kwa ujumla.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 27
Mwaka 2009, Benki iliajiri jumla ya wafanyakazi 136 ambao kati yao 96 (71%) ni wanaume na 40 (29%) wanawake. Wafanyakazi wengi walioajiriwa walikuwa ni wapya katika kazi (katika ngazi za ua�sa na uhasibu fedha). Benki huwapandisha wafanyakazi wake vyeo pale tu kunapokuwa na nafasi ya kufanya hivyo. Mwaka uliopita uajiri wa wafanyakazi katika ngazi ya juu ulikuwa ni mdogo sana.
Benki inatoa na itaendelea kutoa fursa sawa kwa watu wote katika ajira na itahakikisha kwamba mfanyakazi mwenye bidii na uwezo anateuliwa kushika nafasi yoyote bila ubaguzi wa aina yoyote kama vile jinsia, kabila, dini au ulemavu ambao hauzuii mtu kutimiza wajibu wake.
TEKNOHAMABenki ya CRDB hutumia teknolojia ya mawasiliano ya kompyuta kama zana ya kiushindani katika soko na pia kuongeza ufanisi na tija katika shughuli zake. Miundombinu ya kompyuta katika Benki ni ya uhakika na imetengenezwa kuweza kumudu ongezeko la wateja pamoja na la miamala. Benki imetumia teknohama hii katika kuboresha shughuli za kibenki, kubuni bidhaa na huduma mpya na hatimaye kuongeza thamani ya huduma/bidhaa zitolewazo kwa wateja.
Katika mwaka 2009, Benki ilijikita katika mradi wa kubadilisha mfumo wake mkuu wa kompyuta ambapo utabadilishwa kwa kuingiza mfumo mpya unaojulikana kama Universal Banking – Bank Fusion (UB). Mradi utakapokuwa umekamilika, Benki itakuwa na uwezo mkubwa katika kutoa huduma na kwa namna ambayo ni rahisi na kwa gharama nafuu.
Aidha Benki iliboresha mfumo wa kompyuta unaotumiwa na kitengo cha Biashara ya Kimataifa ujulikanao kama TI Plus. Sambamba na hilo, Benki ilitekeleza mfumo wa kusimamia shughuli za Idara ya Hazina ujulikanao kama Opics. Mifumo yote miwili inatarajiwa kuleta ufanisi mkubwa kwa Benki katika biashara za kimataifa na huduma kwa wateja.
Katika juhudi za kuboresha huduma na kuleta ufanisi, katika kipindi cha mwaka 2009 Benki ilianza kutekeleza mradi wa kufanyia Makao Makuu shughuli za kibenki zilizokuwa zikifanyika matawini (centralization of back o�ce operations) ili kuongeza ufanisi. Hii pia ililazimu ununuzi wa mfumo maalum wa kompyuta ujulikanao kama ‘Back O�ce Centralization System’ ili kumudu shughuli hizo. Mradi huu unategemewa kumalizika katika kipindi cha robo ya pili ya mwaka 2010. Katika mwendelezo wa kuboresha miundombinu yake, Benki imeboresha mfumo wake wa mawasiliano ambao ulikuwepo katika kipindi kisichopungua miaka minane (8) kwa kuongeza uwezo wake mara sita zaidi ya zamani. Hii itaongeza ufanisi katika mawasiliano na kupunguza gharama za mawasiliano kwa Benki.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 200928
Kitengo cha Teknohama kilifanya kazi bila kuchoka kuhakikisha kwamba wakati wote mifumo ya kompyuta na mawasiliano inapatikana na kwa ufanisi saa 24, siku 365 za mwaka. Hili lilienda sambamba na kuhakikisha kwamba rasilimali za Benki za teknohama zinatunzwa na kupewa usalama unaostahili wakati wote. Kwa miaka ijayo, inategemewa kuanzishwa kwa timu za wataalamu wa IT za kutoa huduma katika kila kanda.
MASOKOMwaka 2009 umeendelea kuwa mwaka wa mafanikio katika juhudi za Benki kutoa huduma bora, za kiubunifu na zenye kukidhi mahitaji ya wateja wake. Mikakati mipya ya masoko imechangia ukuaji mkubwa wa Benki. Akaunti ya Malkia, ambayo ni ya kwanza kabisa nchini kwa ajili ya wanawake ilianzishwa mwishoni mwa mwezi April, 2009. Hii ni akaunti iliyobuniwa mahsusi kukidhi mahitaji ya kibenki ya wanawake, Malkia Akaunti ni mpango maalum wa uhifadhi wa fedha kwa muda maalum na kiwango maalum ambacho mteja anachagua kuweka. Akaunti hii ilipokelewa kwa kishindo sokoni na iliongoza kwa kujikusanyia amana kwa haraka zaidi ya akaunti zote zilizowahi kuanzishwa katika kipindi cha miaka mitano iliyopita.
Mwishoni mwa mwaka Benki ilianzisha huduma za kibenki kwa njia za simu za mkononi ya ‘SimBanking’. Hii ni huduma bora na ya kisasa zaidi nchini. SimBanking ni huduma inayowapa wateja fursa ya kupata taarifa za akaunti zao mahali popote walipo na kwa muda wautakao. Huduma hii ni ya kiwango cha juu zaidi ya ile ya zamani ambayo ilihusisha huduma hizo kupitia ujumbe mfupi wa maandishi (CRDBSMS Banking).
Kupitia ‘SimBanking’ wateja huweza kupata salio la akaunti zao, taarifa fupi ya akaunti, maelezo kuhusu miamala, kufanya malipo ya ankara mbalimbali kama vile MultiChoice, TANESCO, DAWASCO, ada mbalimbali, kuhamisha fedha kwenda akaunti binafsi na kutuma fedha kwa akaunti ya mteja mwingine.
Mwaka 2009, Benki ilishiriki katika makongamano na maonesho mbalimbali ya kibiashara kama maonesho ya wakulima kitaifa (Nane Nane) yaliyofanyika Dodoma, Arusha na Kahama; maonesho ya utalii ya “Karibu” yaliyofanyika mjini Arusha pamoja na maonesho ya siku ya wafanyakazi duniani yaliyofanyika mjini Musoma. Benki pia iliandaa makongamano kwa ajili ya wakulima wa kahawa na pamba katika miji ya Mbeya na Shinyanga.
Mwaka 2009, Benki iliendesha kampeni za kimasoko kwa ajili ya uuzwaji wa hisa na Benki kusajiliwa rasmi kwenye Soko la Hisa la Dar es Salaam ambazo zilifanikiwa vyema na kuleta kiasi kikubwa cha maombi ya manunuzi ya hisa zaidi ya hisa zilizotolewa kwa mauzo.
Benki pia ilifanya mabadiliko makubwa katika tovuti yake (www.crdbbank.com) na kuifanya iwe ya kisasa, yenye kasi, tija na urahisi wa kutumiwa na wateja kwa mawasiliano na Benki. Tovuti hii mpya imesheheni taarifa mbalimbali kwa wateja ikiwemo sehemu maalum kwa ajili ya wawekezaji na wanahisa.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 29
Kwa ujumla, muonekano wa kimasoko wa Benki ulikua sana kutokana na mbinu yetu ya kujali ubora wa kazi na kuwa makini na aina ya matangazo na kampeni za kimasoko tunazoziendesha. Pia kiwango chetu cha kutoa huduma zinazokidhi mahitaji ya wateja kimekuwa zaidi. Ubunifu na mikakati mipya ya masoko itaendelezwa mwaka 2010. Benki itaendelea kuimarisha na kuanzisha huduma na bidhaa ili kukidhi mahitaji ya wateja.
Ufadhili na Misaada kwa JamiiBenki ya CRDB inaamini kwamba haiwezi kujihesabu ni yenye mafanikio bila kurudisha fadhila kwa kutoa sehemu ya faida kwa jamii inayoizunguka. Katika mwaka 2009, Benki ilitumia zaidi ya Shilingi 250 milioni kusaidia jamii zinazoishi katika mazingira magumu na zinazokabiliwa na changamoto mbalimbali. Misaada hii ilielekezwa kwenye maeneo lengwa ikiwa ni pamoja na elimu, afya na mazingira.

OPERATING ACTIVITIES
ECONOMIC REVIEW
General Economic PerformanceOver the past four years Tanzania’s economy performed fairly well, recording an average GDP growth rate of 7.2% per annum. Following the Global Financial Crisis, real GDP growth decreased sharply to 5.6% in 2009. The Global Financial Crisis translated in a decrease in demand and prices for the Tanzania’s principal exports crops, in particular cotton, co�ee and horticultural products. Additionally, earnings from tourism, transportation as well as in�ows from foreign investments were adversely a�ected by the crisis. Despite the economic stimulus package put in place by the Government in mid-2009 with an objective of mitigating the e�ects of the crisis on �nancial institutions, and particularly commercial banks, the fruits of the package begun to be noticed only towards the end of the year 2009. Among the lessons learnt from the crisis is the continued domination of the economy by agriculture and mining sectors, calling for banks and other �nancial institutions to set policies and credit packages that will support e�ective �nancing in the sectors.
Economic Performance Expectations in 2010 and BeyondGeneral economic conditions suggest that foreign investment, trade and tourism will slowly pick up in 2010. Nevertheless, sluggish recovery of the global economy and low demand for agricultural commodities will keep on hindering Tanzania’s economic performance. The construction, mining and services sectors are foreseen to perform well. Growth in construction industry will largely be driven by donor-funded infrastructure mainly in roads and energy sub-sectors whereas services will chie�y be driven by telecommunications, transportation and �nancial services. It is therefore anticipated that economic growth will to a great extent pick up from 5.6% attained in 2009 to about 6.5% in 2010.
Other Developments in the Economy
Developments in Financial and Monetary AggregatesDuring the year 2009 growth in monetary aggregates remained moderate following relatively slow growth of banks’ credit to the private sector. The change in money supply occurred mostly in non-transferable deposits, mainly savings and �xed or time deposits, which accounted for 54.7% of the total change in both broad money supply and extended broad money supply. Generally, annual growth rate of credit to the private sector decelerated from 26% in 2008 to only 17.5% in 2009.
Headline In�ation DevelopmentsThe annual headline in�ation rate kept on �uctuating on month to month basis during the year to December 2009 but on average it stood at 12.5%. The rise was chie�y attributed to an increase in prices of food items. Inspite of a reasonable harvest in 2009, food prices stood high because
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 31
of inelastic demand, structural rigidities and increased exports to the neighbouring countries which experienced food shortages. In addition to the structural rigidities a�ecting food prices, going forward trends suggest that stabilization of oil prices worldwide forecast to average at US$ 75 per barrel will contribute to deterioration in in�ation during 2010.
RETAIL BANKINGFor the Bank‘s Retail Banking, 2009 was a year of sustained growth and enhancement of the Bank’s services and capabilities. Key highlights for the year were the opening of new branches, the launching of innovative segmented o�erings and other initiatives that will enable CRDB Bank to build further on its position as a progressive, secure and stable bank. The Bank continued with its two pronged strategy of improving customer service in the Bank’s branches as well as o�ering esteemed customers convenient and innovative alternative delivery channels that meets their needs. With changes in technology, the Bank was able to upgrade its communication infrastructure across all branches thereby increasing e�ciency in transaction processing by reducing system downtime and increasing ATM up time. The Bank started implementing system based changes that are geared towards centralizing back o�ce transactions and upgrading its core banking system. These two systems will enable the Bank to further improve its services and enhance its growth momentum when fully implemented by the second quarter of year 2010.
Distribution NetworkIn 2009, the Bank progressed in its quest to increase its network of branches (traditional and mobile) to ful�l its ambition of having branches in half of the country’s districts by year 2012. The Bank opened 6 branches in the year under review namely, Marangu, Zanzibar, Kibaha, Kariakoo, Nyanza and Mabibo. The increase has made the Bank the second largest bank in terms of branch network. The Micro�nance subsidiary also increased its network of partner MFIs to 425 from 376 in 2008.
Card BusinessThe Bank’s card business continued to o�er value to our customer base and 2009 was a year of great changes for the Bank’s card business in terms of increasing revenue, strengthening security of card business, and improving quality of merchants recruitment to o�er enhanced convenience to our card customers. CRDB Bank moved to be EMV compliant and the Bank is now o�ering new TemboCardVisa chip cards. TemboCardVisa is the only card in Tanzania to be certi�ed as fully EMV compliant.
The Bank aggressively targeted the Zanzibar tourism and entertainment industry. The Bank’s merchant business was non existent in Zanzibar prior to this year. Within the year, the Bank was able to acquire over 30 merchants. The opening of the new branch in Zanzibar will pave way for a more successful card business operation in Zanzibar.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 200932
The special cards designed for users that transact with TRA (TemboCard TRA) or TANAPA (TemboCard TANAPA) have been transformed from o�ine to online mode. The transition to the online platforms enables customers to be immediately online once a transaction is initiated. As at the end of the year, the Bank had 605,936 cards in the market, both TemboCard normal and TemboCardVisa as well as 502 POS at merchant outlets.
SME businessThe initiatives taken in 2009 in the SME segment resulted into a broadening of the Bank’s client base, both in terms of lending as well as deposits and more diversi�ed risk pro�le with higher returns. The SME loan portfolio doubled both in number and value during the period under review. Out of Tshs. 99.8 billion disbursed during the year, the outstanding balance at end of the year was Tshs. 40 billion.
During year 2009, 1,156 loans were approved with an average limit of Tshs. 50 million per loan. The average loan size increased by Tshs. 20 million from an average size of Tshs. 30 million last year. Interest income and other commission earned amounted to Tshs. 6.75 billion during 2009. At the end of year 2009 Portfolio at Risk (PAR) was 1.58%.
During the year, the SME unit for the �rst time was involved in �nancing under the warehouse receipt system for cashewnuts in Lindi region. Up to the end of December 2009 a total amount of Tshs. 7 billion was disbursed to �nance Agricultural Marketing Cooporative (AMCOS) in that Region to trade in cashew nuts under the warehouse receipt system. At the end of December 2009, all loans had been repaid to the Bank. This line of business is expected to increase in 2010 as the warehouse receipt system has become acceptable to more stakeholders.
Micro�nance OperationsIn year 2009, CRDB Micro�nance Services Company Ltd exhibited a tremendous growth evidenced by expansion of its presence to 23 of Tanzania’s 26 regions and its network coverage to 112 of the country’s total 136 districts through partnerships with 425 a�liate micro�nance institutions enabling provision of �nancial services to 571,476 microentrepreneurs. Amongst the notable milestones achieved were the following:
• Financing drip irrigation for SACCOS members engaged in modern grape cultivation in Chamwino district (Dodoma). This technology will enable e�cient use of underground water.
• Implementation of a programme aimed at financing agriculture at various stages of value chain from cultivation to marketing.
• Enhancing the partner MFIs efficiency by helping them automate the activities: CRDB Micro�nance MIS solution was rolled out to over 70 partner institutions.
• Introduction of micro insurance products.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 33
• Commercialization and sharing of the Bank’s vast experience in Microfinance through consultancy services:- the Bank’s Micro�nance Subsidiary Company established a Consultancy Services Unit to serve the growing market demand.
CORPORATE BANKINGCorporate lending in 2009 was mainly characterized by sluggish growth and cherry-picking of segments or sub-sectors for any additional �nancing taking account of the fact that some sectors received support from the Government with a view to stimulate their contribution to economic growth. It is in this context that there was relatively less concentration on lending to crops like cotton and co�ee that had su�ered profound losses during the previous season. Our Corporate customers, mostly farmers, were therefore made aware of the global trends, markets and the need to be prudent in seeking �nance.
Despite such conservative approach in lending, in 2009 the Bank continued to extend loans and other credit and trade �nancing facilities to its corporate customers in all sectors across the economy. Among many deals, we were exceedingly pleased with our trade �nance together with well informed Corporate Relationship Management teams whose e�ort made it possible to acquire business and deliver services to key customers in the utility sectors. The Bank’s total portfolio grew from TShs. 836.8 billion at end of December, 2008 to TShs. 949.5 billion in December 2009. Out of this portfolio corporate lending accounted for 87%.
During the year under review the Bank’s institutional clients’ team through the countrywide branch network mobilized deposits from various government, non-government and quasi-government institutions all over the country. A sizeable portion of the growth of the Bank’s deposits which grew from TShs. 1.2 trillion at the end of year 2008 to TShs. 1.6 trillion as at 31st December, 2009 was attributable to this segment of customers.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 200934
LENDINGThe net loan portfolio rose by 13% from Tshs. 837 billion as at 31 December 2008 to Tshs 949 billion at 31 December 2009. The agricultural sector continued to dominate, accounting for over 26 % of the portfolio, followed by trade and commerce 17%.

TREASURY OPERATIONSCRDB Bank treasury function focuses on optimizing cost of funds, managing liquidity and risks related to treasury operations, trading and sales. The Department has three functional units including money market, foreign exchange and sales. During 2009, treasury operations of the Bank showed a marked improvement in the market share of foreign exchange business despite depressed interest rates on foreign currency denominated assets arising from the spill-over e�ects of the global �nancial crisis. Treasury foreign exchange operations posted an income of Tshs. 15.2 billion compared with Tshs.13 billion realized in 2008, an increase of 17%. Domestic money market operations generated Tshs. 28.5 billion against Tshs. 23 billion in 2008, an increase of about 24%. These achievements were achieved amidst extreme forex market volatility and declining interest rates in the money market. The weighted average Treasury bill yield was 7.76% in 2009 compared with 8.93% in 2008. The shilling depreciated by an average of 2.59% during the year.
RISK MANAGEMENTGiven the nature of the banking business, management of risk is of utmost importance. Bank introduced specialized department to deal with risk management in 2007. With the global �nancial crisis, a greater scrutiny has been placed on bank’s management of risk in terms of practices, procedure and e�ectiveness. The new systems that the Bank has acquired for core banking, treasury and trade �nance have very robust applications that reduce operational risk by timely highlighting risks. As more and more local banks have been a�ected by frauds and other aspects of losses, the unit started a whistle blowing link that can be accessed by both sta� and customers. The link is on intranet as well as internet on the Bank’s website (www.crdbbank.com).
INFORMATION COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY (ICT)CRDB Bank leverages information technology as a strategic tool to gain competitive advantage and improve productivity and e�ciency of the organization. Our platforms are designed to service scale and are now capable of handling increased customer accounts and transaction volumes. We have used technology to deliver process improvements, innovation and to create new products and add value to our o�erings.
During the year under review the Bank had started a project of overhauling its core Banking System to a new relational database system branded Universal Banking – Bank Fusion. This will enable the Bank to deliver various products in a more �exible and a cost-e�ective way.
The Bank has also automated its international trade functions by introduction of a trade �nancial system called TI Plus and its treasury operations by introducing treasury management system called Opics. Both these systems will enable the Bank to increase e�ciency and handle large volumes, while providing customers convenient access to the related services.

In its e�ort to increase operational e�ciency the Bank also started in 2009 to implement process rationalization by centralizing its branch back o�ce operations entailing acquisition of back o�ce centralization system. This project is expected to be completed by the third quarter of 2010.
In tandem with this, the Bank also upgraded its communication system from the old system which had been in place for more than eight years. The new system has increased capacity six times more than the previous one. This will enable the Bank to reduce system down time and costs.
ICT Support team also worked tirelessly to maintain high level of system availability and service 24x7, 365 days. This has been managed alongside an ongoing Information Technology (ICT) projects to ensure that the Bank’s ICT assets are properly secured and maintained. These will be further developed in the coming years by introduction of Zonal Support Teams.
PEOPLEAs at 31st December 2009, the Bank had 1,311 employees out of whom 806 (62%) were males and 505 (38%) females. At management level about 24.8% were female. The annual growth in sta�ng was 5% as compared with 7.4% in the year 2008. This is in keeping with the overall growth of the Bank and its outlets.
In the year 2009, the Bank recruited 136 employees of which 96 (71%) were males and 40 (29%) were females. Most of the recruits were entry level hires (i.e. Bank O�cer Trainees and Bank Teller Trainees). The Bank promotes from within whenever possible, hence, during the period the recruitment of senior sta� was relatively low.
The Bank is an equal opportunity employer. It gives equal access to employment opportunities and ensures that the best available person is appointed to any given position free from discrimination of any kind and without regard to factors like gender, marital status, tribe, religion and disability which does not impair ability to discharge duties. MARKETING2009 continued to be a year of great achievements in o�ering innovative solutions to meet customer needs. New marketing programmes have contributed to solid business growth. Signi�cantly, a �rst women designated account in the country, Malkia Account was launched at the end of April 2009. This is an account designed to meet women’s savings plans especially those with unique �nancial needs, without a�ecting their spending behaviors. Malkia account has become the fastest growing account in terms of volumes of deposits compared to all other accounts launched in the past �ve years.

Towards the end of the year, the Bank launched the most advanced mobile phone based product in the country, branded CRDB SimBanking. CRDB SimBanking is a service that allows customers to access their accounts from wherever they are, whenever they wish. The service is a second generation variant of mobile banking services through their cellular phones. Customers can access their account balances, get a mini statement, get transaction details, pay utility bills, school fees and other �xed term payments like MultiChoice, transfer funds between own accounts as well as to third parties.
In 2009, the department spearheaded the Bank’s participation in various forums and trade exhibitions, including the Peasant’s Day (“Nane Nane”) exhibitions in Dodoma, Arusha and Kahama; Karibu Tourism Fair in Arusha as well as National May Day exhibitions in Musoma. The Bank also conducted Co�ee Forum in Mbeya and Cotton Forum in Shinyanga for its borrowing customers.
During the year, the Bank conducted marketing campaigns to support the rights issue, IPO and listing of the Bank’s shares at the Dar es Salaam Stock Exchange (DSE) which were all a success with massive oversubscription.
The Bank also revamped its website (www.crdbbank.com). The new website is state of the art with an e�cient, user friendly customer interface that allows customers to interact with the Bank in general or with speci�c business units. The new website has more information for customers and other stakeholders including a special section for investors and shareholders.
Further innovations and new marketing programmes will take place in 2010. The Bank will continue to enhance and develop the Bank’s services and products so that customers receive the level of sevice and assistance that they demand.
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)The Bank is steadfast in its belief that it can not prosper and consider itself successful without sharing the fruits of its success with the community within which it operates. In 2009, the Bank donated over Tshs. 250 million to support disadvantaged communities and other noble causes. The support which were given out were in areas that the Bank had earmarked to receive support, namely, education, health and the environment.

Matokeo ya KifedhaBenki ilipata faida kabla ya kodi na tengo kwa ajili ya mikopo mibaya ya Sh. 80 bilioni mwaka 2009 ikilinganishwa na Sh. 65 bilioni mwaka 2008 ambalo ni ongezeko la asilimia 23. Hata hivyo, Benki iliongeza jumla ya Sh.18 bilioni kwa ajili ya tengo la mikopo mibaya mwaka 2009 ikilinganishwa na tengo la Sh. 5 bilioni mwaka 2008 kutokana na kushuka kwa urudishwaji wa mikopo kulikosababishwa na mdororo wa uchumi duniani. Kwa bahati, Serikali iliingilia kati na kutoa ruzuku ya kunusuru ambapo benki ilipata jumla ya Sh. 8.9 bilioni kwa ajili ya hasara iliyotokea kwa wanunuzi wa pamba, na zaidi ya Sh. 9.3 bilioni zilizotolewa mwezi Februari 2010. Benki ilipata faida kabla ya kodi ya Sh. 62 bilioni mwaka 2009 ikilinganishwa na Sh. 60 bilioni mwaka jana ambalo ni ongezeko la asilimia 3.

Shughuli na Wenye UhusianoIlipo�ka tarehe 31 Disemba 2009 wajumbe wa Bodi Bw. Ally H. Laay, Bi. Joyce N. Nyanza na Dk. Charles S. Kimei walikuwa na salio la mikopo kama inavyoonyeshwa kwenye mabano: Bw. Ally H. Laay (Sh. 12 Milioni), Bi. Joyce N. Nyanza (Sh. 59 milioni) na Dk Kimei (Sh. 43 milioni).
Ustawi wa WafanyakaziIlipo�ka Disemba 2009 Benki ilikuwa na wafanyakazi 1,311 kati yao wanaume walikuwa 806 (asilimia 62) na 505 (asilimia 38) wanawake. Ongezeko la wafanyakazi kwa mwaka lilikuwa asilimia 5 ukilinganisha na asilimia 7.4 ya mwaka 2008. Hii inaendana na ukuaji wa Benki kwa ujumla na ongezeko la vituo vyake vya biashara. Kwa upande wa menejimenti wanawake ni asilimia 24.8.
Benki hujali usawa katika kutoa nafasi za ajira na inahakikisha yule mwenye uwezo ndiye anayepewa nafasi bila ya kuwepo ubaguzi unaoangalia jinsia, ndoa, kabila, dini au ulemavu ambao haumkwamishi kumudu kazi aliyoiomba.
Mwaka 2009 Benki iliajiri wafanyakazi 136, kati yao 96 (asilimia 71) walikuwa wanaume na 40 (asilimia 29) wanawake. Wengi wa walioajiriwa walikuwa wa ngazi za mwanzo (a�sa benki mwanafunzi na mhasibu fedha mwanafunzi). Itokeapo fursa ya cheo cha juu Benki huijaza kutumia wafanyakazi wa ndani (kwa kuwapandisha vyeo) kadri inavyowezekana, hivyo katika kipindi hiki wafanyakazi wachache wa vyeo vya juu waliajiriwa.
Mwaka 2009, Benki pia iliweka mkazo katika uelewa wa wafanyakazi wake juu ya masuala ya VVU/UKIMWI kwa kuhakikisha wanapata taarifa muhimu za jinsi ya kujikinga na elimu jumla ya janga hili. Benki pia iliingiza programu za masuala ya VVU katika mafunzo ya mwanzo kwa wafanyakazi wapya na mafunzo mengineyo. Wahamasishaji rika kuhusu janga la UKIMWI toka idara zote za Benki, walipata mafunzo maalum ili kukabiliana na janga la UKIMWI. Na wafanyakazi wote wameendelea kuhimizwa ili wapime afya zao kwa hiari.
MasokoBenki ilitumia mikakati mbalimbali ili kuendeleza na kuongeza uelewa wa wateja kuhusu bidhaa na huduma za Benki, ili pia kuimarisha chapa ya kampuni na kuongeza uelewa wa wateja juu ya vituo mbalimbali vya kutolea huduma za Benki.
Benki ilifanya ta�ti mbalimbali ili kubaini maeneo yanayofaa zaidi kwa ajili ya biashara, hususani kwa kufungua matawi au kusimika ATM.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 200946
Benki ilishiriki katika makongamano mbalimbali na maonesho ya biashara, ikiwa ni pamoja na Sikukuu ya Wakulima yaani Nane Nane iliyofanyika Dodoma, Arusha na Kahama, maonesho ya utalii yaliyofanyika Arusha, na katika Sikukuu ya Wafanyakazi (Mei Mosi) iliyofanyika Musoma. Benki pia iliandaa makongamano ya kahawa na pamba yaliyofanyika kule Mbeya na Shinyanga kwa ajili ya wateja. Matukio haya yalitumika kama majukwaa ya kujitangaza, kujenga chapa ya Benki, kutafuta biashara na kukutana na wadau wa kibiashara.
Katika mwaka huo, kampeni maalum ziliendeshwa na Benki ili kuufahamisha umma kuhusu uuzwaji wa hisa za Benki katika Soko la Hisa la Dar es Salaam (DSE) na kwamba Benki ya CRDB imeorodheshwa katika Soko la Hisa la Dar es Salaam. Pia kampeni maalum kwa ajili ya kutangaza bidhaa mpya yaani akaunti ya Malkia na huduma za kibenki kwa simu ya mkononi yaani SimBanking. Pia kampeni maalum zilifanyika kutangaza Akaunti ya Wanafunzi (Akaunti ya Scholar) na Akaunti ya Watoto (Akaunti ya Juniour Jumbo).
Benki ilifanyia maboresho na marekebisho tovuti yake (www.crdbbank.com), ili kumuwezesha mteja kuwasiliana moja kwa moja na Benki au idara husika anayotaka kuwasiliana nayo.
Mahusiano na Jamii (CSR)Benki ilitenga zaidi ya Sh. 250 milioni ili kusaidia maendeleo na ustawi wa jamii hususani katika elimu, afya na mazingira. Mchango wa Benki ulikuwa katika maeneo kama: kudhamini shindano la hisabati kule Dodoma na Tanga, ujenzi wa vyumba vya madarasa katika shule ya Sekondari Mtunduru mkoani Singida, michango kwa Mamlaka ya Elimu Tanzania (TEA) na kwa Mfuko wa Elimu wa Waziri Mkuu. MEWATA, PPF na UWT zilipata jumla ya Sh. 50 milioni ili kufanikisha mikutano na makaongamano kwa ajili ya wanachama wao. Katika makongamano na mikutano hii Benki ilipata fursa ya kutangaza bidhaa zake, huduma zake na pia kuimarisha chapa yake.
Vifaa mbalimbali vilitolewa kwa Chama cha Madaktari wa Meno Tanzania na Hospitali ya wilaya ya Mbinga – wodi ya wanawake ilipewa vitanda na magodoro, thamani ya vifaa vilivyotolewa sanjari na vitanda na magodoro ni Sh. 20 milioni.
WakaguziMkutano Mkuu wa Mwaka uliofanyika tarehe 20 Juni 2009 uliiteua kampuni ya Deloite &Touche kuwa wakaguzi katika kipindi cha taarifa hii ya mwaka.
ShukuraniBodi inapenda kuishukuru menejimenti pamoja na wafanyakazi wote ambao katika hali ngumu iliyowakabili wameonyesha ujasiri wa kipekee, heshima, mshikamano na utendaji bora katika
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 47
mwaka huu. Bodi pia inapenda kuwashukuru wateja, wanahisa na wajumbe wa Bodi za Ushauri za Benki kwa uaminifu, imani na kutuunga mkono katika kipindi hiki, kwani bila hayo hatunge�kia mafanikio tuliyopata.

Report of The DirectorsFor the year ended 31st December 2009
The Directors are pleased to present their report and the audited consolidated and separate �nancial statements of the CRDB Bank Plc for the year ended 31 December 2009.

During the year, 2 branches were refurbished, 6 new branches opened and 32 ATMs installed making the total of operating ATMs to be 132.

Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 49

Other IncomeOther income includes fee based income, pro�t on disposal of properties and equipment, and amortization of grants income all of which contributed to 20% of the Bank's total operating income.
Micro�nance BusinessThe number of partnering Micro�nance Institutions (MFIs) under the micro�nance programme, increased by 49 from 376 in 2008 to 425 in 2009.

In year 2009, total loans amounting to Tshs. 14 billion were approved to 25 partner MFIs for farm mechanization including purchasing of power tillers and tractors to support farmers in modernized irrigation schemes for grape production, paddy and other crops. The warehousing receipt systems which assisted to secure better prices for cereals, cashew nuts, sugarcane and tea were also �nanced through the micro�nance arrangement.
Small and Medium Enterprises (SME)The SME loan portfolio doubled both in number of borrowers and in value during 2009. During the year 1,156 loans were approved with a total value of Tshs. 118 billion. Average loan size increased from Tshs. 30 million in 2008 to Tshs. 50 million.

Information Communication Technology (ICT)The Bank started implementation of a new core banking system (the Bank Fusion – Universal Banking from Misys). In tandem with this the Bank also acquired a Trade Finance System and Mobile (Cell phone) banking system trading under the brand name CRDB SimBanking.
Future DevelopmentsThe year 2009 was the second year in implementation of the Bank's Strategic Business plan for 2008-2012. In this plan the Bank continues to focus on retail banking by o�ering quality products and services through enhanced network expansion, better use of e-banking delivery channels, and enhancements to the Bank's technological platform. The Bank will continue to o�er customized banking services to corporate and institutional customers as well as take measures to improve risk management. The challenge ahead is building capacity and infrastructure for provision of services to all segments of customers.
Financial ResultsThe Bank recorded a pro�t before tax and provision for loan losses of Tshs. 80 billion in 2009 compared to Tshs. 65 billion in 2008 representing an increase of 23% on the previous year result. However, the Bank increased its provisions for loan losses by Tshs. 18 billion during 2009 compared with Tshs. 5 billion in 2008 due to deterioration of loan portfolio performance on account of the global �nancial crisis. In tandem, the Government intervened and provided a rescue package of which a total of Tshs. 8.9 billion was received during the year in respect of losses incurred by cotton buyers, and with a further Tshs. 9.3 billion received in February 2010. The Bank realized a pre tax pro�t of Tshs. 62 billion in year 2009 compared to Tshs. 60 billion last year marking an increase of 3%.
SolvencyThe state of a�airs of the Group as at 31 December 2009 is set out on page 68 of the �nancial statements. The Directors consider the Group to be solvent within the meaning ascribed by the Tanzania Companies Act 2002 and Banking and Financial Institution Act, 2006.

3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES Statement of compliance The �nancial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial
Reporting Standards.
Basis of preparation The consolidated �nancial statements have been prepared under the historical cost
convention, modi�ed to include the revaluation of certain non-current assets and �nancial instruments.
The preparation of �nancial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Bank’s accounting policies. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the year in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods a�ected.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 77
3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where
assumptions and estimates are signi�cant to the consolidated �nancial statements are disclosed in Note 4.
The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
Basis of consolidation
(a) Subsidiaries The consolidated �nancial statements incorporate the �nancial statements of the Bank
and its subsidiary (CRDB Micro�nance Services Company Limited) for the year ended 31 December 2009.
Subsidiaries are those companies in which the Bank either directly or indirectly has an interest of more than 50% of the voting rights or otherwise has power to exercise control over the operations of the entities. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which e�ective control is transferred to the group. Consolidated in ceases from the date of disposal or when the Bank e�ectively loses control.
Intra-company balances and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-company transactions are eliminated in preparing the consolidated �nancial statements.
The purchase method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries by the Group. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition. Identi�able assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any non-controlling interest. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of the identi�able net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the di�erence is recognised directly in the pro�t or loss for the period.
Investment in subsidiaries is accounted for at cost in the �nancial statements of the Bank.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 200978
3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
(b) Transactions with non-controlling interests The Group applies a policy of treating transactions with non-controlling interests as
transactions with parties external to the Group. Disposals to non-controlling interests result in gains and losses for the group and are recorded in the pro�t or loss for the year. Purchases from non-controlling interests result in goodwill, being the di�erence between any consideration paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying value of net assets of the subsidiary.
Foreign currency translation
(a) Functional and presentation currency Items included in these �nancial statements are measured using the currency of the
primary economic environment in which the Group operates (‘the functional currency’).
The �nancial statements are presented in Tanzania shillings (Tshs’000), which is the Group’s functional and presentation currency.
(b) Transactions and balances Foreign currency transactions are translated into Tanzania shillings using the exchange
rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are translated to Tanzania shillings using the rate of exchange prevailing at that date. The resultant exchange gains and losses are recognized in the income statement.
Financial instruments The Group initially recognizes loans and advances, deposits and debt securities issued on
the date that they are originated. All other �nancial assets and liabilities are initially recognized on the trade date at which the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
i. Financial assets The Group classi�es its �nancial assets in the following categories: �nancial assets at fair
value through pro�t or loss; loans and receivables; held-to-maturity investments; and available-for-sale �nancial assets. Management determines the classi�cation of its investments at initial recognition.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 79
3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
(a) Financial assets at fair value though pro�t or loss This category has two sub-categories: �nancial assets held for trading, and those
designated at fair value through pro�t or loss at inception. A �nancial asset is classi�ed as held for trading if it is acquired or incurred principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term or if it is part of a portfolio of identi�ed �nancial instruments that are managed together and for which there is evidence of a recent actual pattern of short-term pro�t-taking. Derivatives are also categorised as held for trading.
Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives that are managed in conjunction with designated �nancial assets or �nancial liabilities are included in ‘net income from �nancial instruments designated at fair value’.
The Group designates certain �nancial assets upon initial recognition as at fair value through pro�t or loss (fair value option). This designation cannot subsequently be changed. According to IAS 39, the fair value option is only applied when the following conditions are met:• the application of the fair value option reduces or eliminates an accounting
mismatch that would otherwise arise or• the financial assets are part of a portfolio of financial instruments which is risk
managed and reported to senior management on a fair value basis or• the financial assets consists of debt host and an embedded derivatives that must
be separated.
The fair value option is applied to investment funds that are part of a portfolio managed on a fair value basis, and structured instruments that include embedded derivatives. Financial assets for which the fair value option is applied are recognised in the consolidated statement of �nancial position as ‘Financial assets designated at fair value’. Fair value changes relating to �nancial assets designated at fair value through pro�t or loss are recognised in ‘Net gains on �nancial instruments designated at fair value through pro�t or loss’.
(b) Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative �nancial assets with �xed or determinable
payments that are not quoted in an active market, other than: (a) those that the entity intends to sell immediately or in the short term, which are classi�ed as held for trading, and those that the entity upon initial recognition designates as at fair value through
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 200980
3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
pro�t or loss; (b) those that the entity upon initial recognition designates as available for sale; or (c) those for which the holder may not recover substantially all of its initial investments, other than because of credit deterioration.
(c) Held-to-maturity �nancial assets Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative �nancial assets with �xed or
determinable payments and �xed maturities that the Group’s management has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. If the Group were to sell other than an insigni�cant amount of held-to-maturity assets, the entire category would be reclassi�ed as available for sale.
Government securities comprise treasury bills and treasury bonds, which are debt securities issued by the Government of Tanzania. Treasury bills and bonds are classi�ed as held to maturity and are stated at amortised cost.
(d) Available-for-sale �nancial assets Available-for-sale assets are �nancial assets that are not (a) �nancial assets at fair value
through pro�t or loss, (b) loans and receivables, or (c) �nancial assets held to maturity.
Available-for-sale investments are intended to be held for an inde�nite period of time, which may be sold in response to needs for liquidity or changes in interest rates, exchange rates or equity prices.
Regular-way purchases and sales of �nancial assets at fair value through pro�t or loss, held to maturity and available for sale are recognized on trade-date – the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset.
Financial assets are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs for all �nancial assets not carried at fair value through pro�t or loss. Financial assets carried at fair value through pro�t and loss are initially recognized at fair value, and transaction costs are expensed through pro�t or loss for the year.
Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash �ows from the �nancial assets have expired or where the group has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. Financial liabilities are derecognized when they are extinguished – that is, when the obligation is discharged, cancelled or expires.
Available-for-sale �nancial assets and �nancial assets at fair value through pro�t or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Loans and receivables and held-to-maturity investments are carried at amortized cost using the e�ective interest method.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 81
3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the ‘�nancial assets at fair value through pro�t or loss’ category are included in the pro�t or loss in the period in as they arise. Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of available-for-sale �nancial assets are recognized directly in equity, until the �nancial asset is derecognized or impaired. At this time, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized through other comprehensive income is reclassi�ed to pro�t or loss for the year. However, interest calculated using the e�ective interest method and foreign currency gains and losses on monetary assets classi�ed as available for sale are recognized in the pro�t or loss for the year. Dividends on available-for-sale equity instruments are recognized in the pro�t or loss for the year when the entity’s right to receive payment is established.
The fair values of quoted investments in active markets are based on current bid prices. If there is no active market for a �nancial asset, the Group establishes fair value using valuation techniques. These include the use of recent arm’s length transactions, discounted cash �ow analysis, and other valuation techniques commonly used by market participants.
Impairment of �nancial assets
(a) Assets carried at amortised cost The Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective
evidence that a �nancial asset or group of �nancial assets is impaired. A �nancial asset or a group of �nancial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a ‘loss event’) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash �ows of the �nancial asset or group of �nancial assets that can be reliably estimated.
The criteria that the Group uses to determine that there is objective evidence of an impairment loss include:
• Delinquency in contractual payments of principal or interest;• Cash flow difficulties experienced by the borrower (for example, equity ratio, net
income percentage of sales);• Breach of loan covenants or conditions; • Initiation of bankruptcy proceedings;• Deterioration of the borrower’s competitive position; and• Deterioration in the value of collateral.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 200982
3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
The estimated period between a loss occurring and its identi�cation is determined by management for each identi�ed portfolio. In general, the periods used vary between three months and 12 months; in exceptional cases, longer periods are warranted.
The Group �rst assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for �nancial assets that are individually signi�cant, and individually or collectively for �nancial assets that are not individually signi�cant.
If the Group determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed �nancial asset, whether signi�cant or not, it includes the asset in a group of �nancial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses them for impairment. Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is or continues to be recognised are not included in a collective assessment of impairment.
The amount of the loss is measured as the di�erence between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash �ows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the �nancial asset’s original e�ective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account and the amount of the loss is recognized in the income statement. If a loan or held-to-maturity investment has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current e�ective interest rate determined under the contract. As a practical expedient, the Group may measure impairment on the basis of an instrument’s fair value using an observable market price.
The calculation of the present value of the estimated future cash �ows of a collateralized �nancial asset re�ects the cash �ows that may result from foreclosure less costs for obtaining and selling the collateral, whether or not foreclosure is probable.
For the purposes of a collective evaluation of impairment, �nancial assets are grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics (i.e, on the basis of the Group’s grading process that considers asset type, industry, geographical location, collateral type, past-due status and other relevant factors).Those characteristics are relevant to the estimation of future cash �ows for groups of such assets by being indicative of the customer’s ability to pay all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the assets being evaluated.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 83
3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Future cash �ows in a group of �nancial assets that are collectively evaluated for impairment are estimated on the basis of the contractual cash �ows of the assets in the group and historical loss experience for assets with credit risk characteristics similar to those in the group. Historical loss experience is adjusted on the basis of current observable data to re�ect the e�ects of current conditions that did not a�ect the period on which the historical loss experience is based and to remove the e�ects of conditions in the historical period that do not currently exist.
Estimates of changes in future cash �ows for groups of assets should re�ect and be directionally consistent with changes in related observable data from period to period (for example, changes in unemployment rates, property prices, payment status, or other factors indicative of changes in the probability of losses in the group and their magnitude). The methodology and assumptions used for estimating future cash �ows are reviewed regularly by the Group to reduce any di�erences between loss estimates and actual loss experience.
When a loan is uncollectible, it is written o� against the related provision for loan impairment. Such loans are written o� after all the necessary procedures have been completed and the amount of loss has been determined.
If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized (such as an improvement in the customer’s credit rating), the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed by adjusting the allowance account. The amount of the reversal is recognised in the pro�t or loss in impairment charge for credit losses.
(b) Assets classi�ed as available for sale In the case of equity investments classi�ed as available for sale, a signi�cant or
prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered in determining whether the assets are impaired. If any such evidence exists for available-for-sale �nancial assets, the cumulative loss measured as the di�erence between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that �nancial asset previously recognized in pro�t or loss is removed from equity and reclassi�ed to pro�t or loss for the year.
Impairment losses recognized in the pro�t of loss for the year on equity instruments are not reversed through the income statement. If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of a debt instrument classi�ed as available for sale increases and the increase can be
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 200984
3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized in pro�t or loss, the impairment loss is reversed through the pro�t or loss for the year.
(c) Renegotiated loans Loans that are either subject to collective impairment assessment or individually
signi�cant and whose terms have been renegotiated are no longer considered to be past due but are treated as new loans. In subsequent years, the asset is considered to be past due and disclosed only if renegotiated.
ii. Financial liabilities and equity instruments
(a) Classi�cation as debt or equity Debt and equity instruments are classi�ed as either �nancial liabilities or as equity in
accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement.
(b) Equity instruments An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of
an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Group are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
(c) Financial guarantee contracts liabilities Financial guarantee contract liabilities are measured initially at their fair values and are
subsequently measured at the higher of the amount of the obligation under the contract, as determined in accordance with IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets; and the amount initially recognised less, where appropriate, cumulative amortisation recognised in accordance with the revenue recognition policies.
Financial liabilities Financial liabilities are classi�ed as either �nancial liabilities ‘at fair value through pro�t
and loss’ or ‘other �nancial liabilities’.
Other liabilities, borrowing and deposits are initially measured at fair value net of transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the e�ective interest method, with interest expense recognized on e�ective yield basis.
The e�ective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a �nancial asset or a �nancial liability and of allocating the interest income or interest expense over the relevant period. The e�ective interest rate is the rate that exactly
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 85
3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the �nancial instrument or, when appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount of the �nancial asset or �nancial liability. When calculating the e�ective interest rate, the Group estimates cash �ows considering all contractual terms of the �nancial instrument (for example, prepayment options) but does not consider future credit losses. The calculation includes all fees and points paid or received between parties to the contract that are an integral part of the e�ective interest rate, transaction costs and all other premiums or discounts.
O�setting �nancial instruments Financial assets and liabilities are o�set and the net amount reported in the statement of
�nancial position when there is a legally enforceable right to o�set the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Interest income and expense Interest income and expense for all interest bearing �nancial instruments are recognized in
the pro�t or loss for the year on accrual basis using the e�ective interest method. The e�ective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash payments and receipts through the expected life of the �nancial instruments (or, where appropriate, a shorter period) to the carrying amount of the �nancial instruments. The e�ective interest rate is established on initial recognition of the �nancial asset and liability and is not revised subsequently.
The calculation of the e�ective interest rate includes all fees and points paid or received transaction costs, and discounts or premiums that are an integral part of the e�ective interest rate. Transaction costs are incremental costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, issue or disposal of a �nancial asset or liability.
Once a �nancial asset or a group of similar �nancial assets has been written down as a result of an impairment loss, interest income is recognized using the rate of interest that was used to discount the future cash �ows for purposes of measuring the allowance for impairment.
Fee and commission income Fees and commissions are generally recognized on an accrual basis when the service has
been provided. Loan commitment fees for loans that are likely to be drawn down are deferred (together with related direct costs) and recognized as an adjustment to the e�ective interest rate on the loan. Loan syndication fees are recognized as revenue when
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 200986
3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
the syndication has been completed and the Group has retained no part of the loan package for itself or has retained a part at the same e�ective interest rate as the other participants. Commission and fees arising from negotiating or participating in the negotiation of, a transaction for a third party are recognized on completion of the underlying transaction.
Dividend income Dividends are recognized in the pro�t or loss for the year when the entity’s right to receive
payment is established.
Sale and repurchase agreements Securities sold subject to repurchase agreements (‘repos’) are reclassi�ed in the
consolidated �nancial statements as pledged assets when the transferee has the right by contract or custom to sell or repledge the collateral; the counterparty liability is included in amounts due to other Banks, deposits from Banks, other deposits or deposits due to customers, as appropriate. Securities purchased under agreements to resell (‘reverse repos’) are recorded as loans and advances to other Banks or customers, as appropriate. The di�erence between sale and repurchase price is treated as interest and accrued over the life of the agreements using the e�ective interest method. Securities lent to counterparties are also retained in the consolidated �nancial statements.
Income tax Income tax expense represents the sum of the current taxation and the deferred taxation.
Current taxation is provided on the basis of the results for the year, as shown in the �nancial statements, adjusted in accordance with tax legislation.
Deferred tax is provided, using the liability method, for all temporary di�erences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the �nancial statements. Currently enacted tax rates are used to determine deferred tax.
A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable pro�ts will be available against which the unused tax credits can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax bene�t will be realized.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 87
3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Property and equipment Following the change in accounting policy by the Group, motor vehicles are stated in the
statement of �nancial position at revalued amounts, being the fair value at the date or revaluation, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. The valuation was determined with reference to the market value of the motor vehicles.
Any revaluation increase arising on the revaluation of such motor vehicles is recognized in other comprehensive income, except to the extent that it reverses a revaluation decrease for the same asset previously recognized in the pro�t or loss, in which case the increase is credited to pro�t or loss to the extent of the decrease previously expensed. A decrease in the carrying amount arising on the revaluation of such motor vehicles is recognized in the pro�t or loss to the exceeds the balance, if any, held in revaluation reserve relating to a previous revaluation of that asset.
This change in policy has been adopted prospectively in line with IAS 16 requirements
Land and buildings comprise mainly branches and o�ces. All property and equipment is stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or are recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic bene�ts associated with the item will �ow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.
All other repairs and maintenance are charged to pro�t or loss for the year operating expenses during the �nancial period in which they are incurred. Depreciation of other assets is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
Bank buildings 20 yrs Computer equipment 5 yrs Motor vehicles 4 yrs O�ce equipment 5 yrs Furniture and �ttings 5 yrs Smart card equipments 8 yrs Mobile branch 4 yrs
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 200988
3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. Assets that are subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are dealt with through pro�t or loss for the year.
Revaluation reserve Assets classi�ed as held for sale, but extend the period to complete the sale beyond one
year are to be revalued and surplus is recognized through other comprehensive income and accumulate in revaluation surplus reserve in the statement of changes in equity.
Intangible assets Acquired computer software and related licenses are stated at cost less accumulated
amortization. Subsequent expenditure on software assets is capitalized only when it increases the future economic bene�ts embodied in the speci�c asset to which it relates. All other expenditure is expensed as incurred. Where software is not an integral part of the related hardware it is recognised as an intangible asset.
Amortization is recognized in pro�t or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the software, from the date that it is available for use. The estimate useful life of software is three to �ve years.
Impairment of tangible and intangible assets At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amount of its tangible
and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that these assets have su�ered an impairment loss.
If objective evidence on impairment losses exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account and the amount of the loss is recognised in the pro�t or loss.
In determining the recoverable amount, the Group considers the higher of the fair value of the asset less costs to sell, and value in use. In estimating value in use, the Group is cognisant of the estimated future cash �ow discounted to the present value using a pre-tax discount rate that is re�ective of the current market assessment of time value of money and the risks speci�c to the asset itself.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 89
3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Intangible assets with inde�nite useful life and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment annually, and when there is indication that the asset may be impaired.
Where impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized.
Statutory reserve IAS 39 requires the Group to recognise an impairment loss when there is objective evidence
that loans and receivables are impaired. However, Bank of Tanzania prudential guidelines require the Bank to set aside amounts for impairment losses on loans and advances in addition to those losses that have been recognised under IAS 39. Any such amounts set aside represent appropriations of retained earnings and not expenses in determining pro�t or loss for the year. These amounts are dealt with in the statutory reserve.
Retirement bene�ts obligations The Group’s contributions in respect of retirement bene�t costs are charged to the pro�t or
loss in the year to which they relate. The Group makes contributions to National Social Security Fund and Parastatal Pension Fund, statutory de�ned contribution pension schemes. The Group’s obligations under the schemes are limited to speci�c contributions legislated from time to time and are charged to the pro�t or loss for the year.
The Group operates a de�ned bene�t incentive scheme through an entity speci�cally established to manage the Fund namely CRDB Bank Group Endowment Scheme Trust. The scheme is generally funded through contributions by the Group. Actuarial valuation is conducted periodically and any gains or losses are dealt with through pro�t or loss.
This plan entitles all employees leaving the employment of the Group after working with it for at least ten years to certain bene�ts which are based on pre-determined formulae.
The liability recognised in the consolidated statement of �nancial position in respect of the de�ned bene�t incentive plan is the present value of the de�ned bene�t obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets, together with adjustments for unrecognised actuarial gains or losses and past service costs. The de�ned bene�t obligation is calculated annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The present value of the de�ned bene�t obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash out�ows using reasonable interest rates.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 200990
3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
The amounts recognised in pro�t or loss for the year is as shown on Note 40.
Leasehold land Payments to acquire leasehold interest in land are treated as prepaid operating lease
rentals and amortized on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.
Amortization of refurbishment costs Leased premises refurbishment represents costs incurred by the Group in refurbishment of
leased bank premises. The rate of amortization was changed during the year from three to �ve years from the year the costs are incurred.
Grants Grants related to assets are treated as deferred income and released to the pro�t or loss
over the expected useful lives of the assets concerned.
Grants towards improvement of Group’s processes are recognized to pro�t or loss over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs.
Cash and cash equivalents For the purpose of statement of cash �ow, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash, short
term liquid investments which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are within three months maturity from the date of acquisition, balances with Bank of Tanzania (excluding the Statutory Minimum Reserve) and balances with other bank’s with maturity of less than three months, less advances from other bank’s repayable within three months from the date of the advance.
Earnings per share The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) in the consolidated �nancial
statements. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the pro�t or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Bank by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the pro�t or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the e�ects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
Dividends Dividends are charged to equity in the period in which they are declared. Proposed
dividends are not accrued until rati�ed at the Annual General Meeting. Payment of dividends is subjected to withholding tax at the rate of 5% and are presented in the notes to the �nancial statements.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 91
3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Provisions for liabilities and charges Entitlements to annual leave are recognized when they accrue to employees. Provision is
made for the estimated liability in respect of annual leave accrued at the end of the reporting period end.
Contingent liabilities Letters of credits, acceptances and guarantees are generally written by the group to
support performance of the customer to third parties. The group will only be required to meet these obligations in the event of the customer’s default. These obligations are accounted for as o� balance sheet transactions and disclosed as contingent liabilities.

4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND KEY SOURCES OF UNCERTAINITIES
The group makes estimates and assumptions that a�ect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities within the next �nancial year. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Impairment losses on loan and advances The group reviews its loan portfolios to assess impairment regularly. In determining
whether an impairment loss should be recorded in the pro�t or loss, the group makes judgments as to whether there is any observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash �ows from a portfolio of loans, before a decrease can be identi�ed with an individual loan in that portfolio. This evidence may include observable data indicating that there has been an adverse change in the payment status of borrowers in a group, or national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on assets in the Group. Management uses estimates based on historical loss experience for assets with credit risk characteristics and objective evidence of impairment similar to those in the portfolio when scheduling its future cash �ows.
The methodology and assumptions used for estimating both the amount and timing of future cash �ows are reviewed regularly to reduce any di�erences between loss estimates and actual loss experience.

Held to maturity investments The group follows the guidance of IAS 39 in classifying non-derivative �nancial assets with
�xed or determinable payments and �xed maturity as held-to-maturity. This classi�cation requires signi�cant judgment. In making this judgment, the group evaluates its intention and ability to hold such investment to maturity. If the group fails to keep these investments to maturity other than for the speci�c circumstances – for example, selling an insigni�cant amount close to maturity – it will be required to reclassify the entire class as available for sale. The investments would therefore be measured at fair value not amortized cost.
Property, plant and equipment Critical estimates are made by the Directors in determining the useful lives of property,
plant and equipment as well as their residual values.
5. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of �nancial risks and those activities involve the
analysis, evaluation, acceptance and management of some degree of risk or combination of risks. Taking risk is core to the �nancial business, and the operational risks are an inevitable consequence of being in business. The Group’s aim is therefore to achieve an appropriate balance between risk and return and minimise potential adverse e�ects on the Group’s �nancial performance. The Group’s risk management policies are designed to identify and analyse these risks, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor the risks and adherence to limits by means of reliable and up-to-date information systems. The group regularly reviews its risk management policies and systems to re�ect changes in markets, products and emerging best practice.
The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group’s risk management framework. As part of it’s governance structure, the Board of Directors has embedded a comprehensive risk management framework for measuring, monitoring, controlling and mitigation of the Group’s risks. The policies are integrated in the overall management information systems of the group and supplemented by a management reporting structure.
Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to re�ect changes in market conditions, products and services o�ered, and emerging best practice. The Group, through its training and management standards and procedures, aims to develop a disciplined and constructive control environment, in which all employees / stakeholders understand their roles and obligations.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 93
5. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (Continued)
The Board’s Credit Committee, Governance and Risk Management Committee, and Audit Committee are responsible for monitoring compliance with the Group’s risk management policies and procedures, and review of the adequacy of risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the group. These committees are assisted in these functions by various management committees which undertake both regular and ad-hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the Board.
The most important type of risks are: • Credit risk • Liquidity risk • Market risk - Interest rate risk - Foreign exchange risk
The notes below provide detailed information on each of the above risks and the Group’s objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the Group’s management of capital.
Credit risk Credit risk refers to the risk that a counter party will default on its contractual obligations
resulting in �nancial loss to the group. It arises principally from lending, trade �nance and treasury activities. The amounts presented in the statements of �nancial position are net of impairment for doubtful debts, estimated by the Group’s management based on prior experience and their assessment of the current economic environment.
i. Management of credit risk The Board of Directors has delegated responsibility for the management of credit risk to its
Credit Committee which is responsible for oversight of the Group’s credit risk, including:• Formulating credit policies, covering risk acceptances criteria in target market, collateral
requirements, credit appraisal, risk grading and reporting, documentary and legal procedures, and compliance with regulatory and statutory requirements.
• Establishing the authorization structure for the approval of credit facilities. • Reviewing and assessing credit risk on all exposures in excess of approval limits of the
management prior to facilities being committed to customers. • Limiting concentrations of exposure to counterparties and industries (for loans and
advances).

5. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (Continued)
Credit risk (Continued) i. Management of credit risk (Continued)
• Developing and maintaining the group’s risk grading system in order to categorise exposures according to the degree of risk of �nancial loss faced and to focus management on the attendant risks. The risk grading system is used in determining where impairment provisions may be required against speci�c credit exposures. The current risk grading framework consists of several grades re�ecting varying degrees of risk of default and other credit risk mitigation. The responsibility for setting risk grades lies with the Committee and risk grades are subject to regular reviews by the Board.
• Reviewing reports on compliance with agreed exposure limits, including those for selected industries and product types.
Day to day management of the group’s credit risk is vested to Director of Credit who reports
to the Managing Director.
Regular audits of the credit processes and management are undertaken by Internal Audit.

Apart from the loans and advances to customers, all other credit exposures are neither past due nor impaired.
(a) Loans and advances that are neither past due nor impaired The Group classi�es loans and advances under this category for those exposures that
are up to date and in line with contractual agreements. Such loans would have demonstrated �nancial conditions, risk factors and capacity to repay that are acceptable. These exposures will normally be maintained largely within approved product programs and with no signs of impairment or distress. These exposures are categorized as normal accounts in line with the Bank of Tanzania (BOT) regulations.
(b) Past due but not impaired This category includes exposures that are over 30 days (31 - 90 days) past due, where
losses have been incurred but have not been identi�ed.
(c) Impaired loans and advances Impaired loans are loans for which the Group determines that it is probable that it will
be unable to collect all principal and interest due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement(s). These accounts under BOT guidelines are termed as non-performing loans.
iv. Allowances for impairment The Group establishes an allowance for impairment losses that represents its estimate of
incurred losses in its loan portfolio. These allowances are a speci�c loss component that relates to individual exposures and a collective loan loss allowance established for Groups of homogeneous assets in respect of losses that have been incurred but have not been identi�ed on loans subject to individual assessment for impairment.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 200996
5. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (Continued)
Write-o� policy The Group writes o� loans and advances net of any related allowances for impairment
losses, when the Board’s Credit Committee determines that the loans and advances are uncollectible and securities unrealizable. This determination is reached after considering information such as the occurrence of signi�cant changes in the borrower or issuer’s �nancial position such that the borrower or issuer can no longer pay the obligation, or that proceeds from sale of collateral will not be su�cient to pay back the entire exposure and after exhausting all other means including litigation. For smaller balance standardized loans, charge o� decisions are generally based on a product speci�c past due status.
Collateral generally is not held over deposits and balance due from banks and items in the course of collection from other banks, except when securities are held as part of reverse repurchase and securities borrowing activity.
vi. Collateral held The Group holds collateral against loans and advances to customers in the form of deposit
under lien, mortgage interests over property, registered securities over assets, and guarantees. Estimates of fair value are based on the value of collateral assessed at the time of borrowing, and refreshed after every three years. Security structures and legal covenants are also subjected to regular review to ensure they continue to ful�ll their intended purpose.
vii. Settlement risk The Group’s activities may give rise to risk at the time of settlement of transactions and
trades. Settlement risk is the risk of loss due to the failure of counter-party to honor its obligations to deliver cash, securities or other assets as contractually agreed. For certain types of transactions the group mitigates this risk by pre-arranging facilities with the customer. Settlement limits form part of the credit approval/limit monitoring process.
viii . Concentrations of risk The Group monitors concentration of risk by economic sector in line with set limits per
sector. An analysis of concentrations within the loan and advances to customers, and o� balance sheet items are provided in note 45.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 97
5. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (Continued)
Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter di�culty in meeting obligations from
�nancial liabilities. Assets and Liabilities Committee (ALCO), a management committee is tasked with the responsibility of ensuring that all foreseeable funding commitments and deposits withdrawals can be met when due, and that the group will not encounter di�culty in meeting obligations from its �nancial liabilities as they occur. ALCO relies substantially on the group’s Treasury Department to coordinate and ensure discipline across the group, certify su�cient liquidity under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the group’s reputation.
i. Liquidity and funding management The Group’s liquidity and funding policies require the following:
• The Group enters into lending contracts subject to availability of funds.• Projecting cash flows by major currency and considering the level of liquid assets
necessary in relation thereto.• Monitoring balance sheet liquidity ratios against internal and regulatory
requirements,• Maintaining an array of diverse range of funding sources with back –up facilities, • Monitoring depositor concentration in order to avoid undue reliance on large
individual depositors and ensure a satisfactory funding mix.• Investment in short term liquid instruments, which can easily be sold in the market
when the need arises. • Investments in property and equipment are properly budgeted and subjected to
prudential limits to minimize the Group’s exposure.• Maintaining liquidity contingency plans. These plans must identify early indicators
of stress conditions and describe actions to be taken in the event of di�culties arising from systemic or other crises while minimizing adverse long-term implications.
ii. Source of funding The Group major source of funding is from customer deposits. To this end, the group
maintains a diversi�ed and stable funding base comprising current/demand, savings and time deposits. The group borrows from the interbank market through transactions with other Banks for short term liquidity requirements.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 200998
5. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (Continued)
iii. Exposure to liquidity risk The key measure used by the Group for managing liquidity risk is the ratio of liquid
assets to demand liabilities. For this purpose liquid asset considered are cash and interbank deposits, investment in securities maturing within one year, clearing and Statutory Minimum Reserve (SMR) deposits. The Bank of Tanzania (BoT) requires that the Group maintains an SMR ratio of 10% of customers’ total deposits and borrowings from the general public in form of 50% of vault cash and SMR account held at BOT on daily basis. The Group’s maturing liabilities comprises all deposits, liabilities and o� –balance sheet items with maturity period of less than one year. The Group has a limit of loan to total deposit of 70% and liquidity trigger of 20% of top 10 deposits to total deposits and 50% of core deposit to total deposits.
The Group’s exposure to liquidity risk at the end of the reporting period is summarized in note 47.
Market risk The objective of market risk management process is to manage and control market risk
exposures in order to optimise return on investments while maintaining a market pro�le as a provider of financial products and services. Market risk is the risk that movement in market factors, including interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, will reduce income or value of portfolio.
Overall responsibility for management of market risk rests with ALCO. Market Risk Management Policies are in place to guide management of this risk and are subject to review and approval by the Board annually.
Market risk has been subdivided into interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk.
i. Interest rate risk The Group is exposed to the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate
due to changes in market interest rates. The maturities of asset and liabilities and the ability to replace at an acceptable cost as they mature are important factors in assessing the group’s exposure to changes in interest rates.
In addition to maintaining an appropriate mix between fixed and floating rates deposit base, interest rates on advances to customers are either pegged to the Bank’s base lending rate or Treasury bill rate. The base rate is adjusted from time to time to reflect the cost of deposits.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 99
5. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (Continued)
Interest rates on customer deposits are negotiated between the bank and the customer with the bank retaining the discretion to adjust the rates in line with changes in market trends. The interest rates, therefore, fluctuate depending on the movement in the market interest rates. The group also invests in treasury bills and bonds. The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk at end of the reporting period is summarized in note 48.
The Group has set a trigger on earnings at risk to net interest income at di�erent maturity bands based on assumptions developed from the past deposit trends and monitoring is done on monthly basis by ALCO.
ii. Foreign exchange risk The Group is exposed to the risk on earnings and capital arising from adverse
movement of foreign exchange rates. The Group participates in the foreign currency market as a market maker and a market user. The Board of Directors through Governance and Risk Management Committee sets limits on the level of exposure by currency and in total for both overnight and intra-day positions. Treasury department is responsible for management of foreign exchange risk including trading within limits and monitoring the exchange rates. The Group’s exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk at the end of the reporting period is summarized in note 49.
The Group carries out tests to determine exposure to market risk. As at 31 December 2009 stress test on interest rate risk indicated an exposure of Tshs 4.5 billion which is 4% of the Bank’s Core Capital while stress test on foreign exchange risk indicated an exposure of Tshs 813 million which is 0.7% of the Bank’s core Capital. The Group also participated in the capital market by buying /selling shares for trading purposes. However at the end of the year 2009, the Group had no exposure to equity investments and therefore no stress test was carried out. Generally, stress test results indicate that shocks will not lead to capital impairment. The Group has embarked on preparation for implementation of appropriate systems for measurement of market risk using more sophisticated models such as Value at Risk.
CAPITAL MANAGEMENT The Group’s objectives when managing capital, which is a broader concept than the
‘equity’ on the face of statements of �nancial position, are:
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009100
5. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (Continued)
• To comply with the capital requirements as set out under the Banking and Financial Institutions Act, 2006 which is monitored by the Bank of Tanzania, the regulator of the banking sector in Tanzania. The Act requires that:
(a) Every bank shall commence operations with and maintain at all times a minimum of core capital of not less than �ve billion Tanzania shillings or such higher amount as the Group may prescribe by order published in the Gazette;
(b) Every bank shall at all times maintain core capital of not less than 10% of its total risk-weighted assets and o� balance sheet exposure; and
(c) Every bank shall at all times maintain total capital of not less than 12% of its total risk weighted assets and o� balance sheet exposure.
• To safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern so that it can continue
to provide returns to shareholders and bene�ts to other stakeholders; and• To maintain a strong capital base to support the development of the group’s business.
Capital adequacy and regulatory capital are monitored daily by the Group’s management employing techniques based on the guidelines developed by the Basel Committee as implemented by the Bank of Tanzania for supervisory purposes. The required information is �led with the Bank of Tanzania on a monthly basis.
The Bank’s regulatory capital falls into two tiers:
(a) Tier 1 capital: Share capital, retained earnings and reserves created by appropriations of retained earnings.
(b) Tier 2 capital: Qualifying subordinated loan capital
The risk-weighted assets are measured by means of a hierarchy of four risk weights classified according to the nature of assets and reflecting an estimate of credit, market and other risks associated with each asset and counterparty, taking into account any eligible collateral or guarantees. A similar treatment is adopted for o�-balance sheet exposure, with some adjustments to reflect the more contingent nature of the potential losses.
The composition and the ratios of the Bank’s regulatory capital and the details of the risk weighted assets for the year ended 31st December 2009 are summarized in note 41. During the years ended 31st December 2008 and 31st December 2009, the Bank complied with all capital requirements to which they were supposed to.
Taarifa ya Mwaka [Annual ReportAnnual Report] 2009 101
5. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (Continued)
The increase of the regulatory capital in the year of 2009 is mainly due to the contribution of the current-year profit. The increase in risk weighted assets reflects the expansion of business in general.
6. SEGMENTAL REPORTING The following segment information has been prepared in accordance with the
“management approach” which requires presentation of segments on the basis of the internal reports about components of the entity which are regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision – Maker in order to allocate resources to a segment in order to assess its performance.
Reportable operating The following business segments represent the group’s organization structure as reflected
in the internal management reporting system. For management purposes, the Group is divided into the following three segments:
a) Corporate banking Includes services and products to corporate and high net worth individuals including
deposits, letters of credit letters of guarantee, lending and other products and dealing with �nancial institutions.
b) Retail banking Includes services and products to individuals including deposits and lending.
c) Treasury Includes treasury services, investment management services and asset management
activities related to dealing managing and custody of securities. This segment also includes all other cost centers and pro�t centers in the head o�ce in areas of technology services and support, currency exchange.
