Bank Albilad has reported a reduction in its shareholders’ equity by SAR 80.6 million as a result of the application of IFRS 9 standard.
Saudi-based banks applied the IFRS 9 accounting standard as of January 1, 2018, that requires banks to set aside provisions for credit impairment on anticipation of customer default, not when actual default happens.
The standard has a direct impact on banks' solvency positions and shareholders' equity.
