Amortised cost is a type of recognition and measurement of financial assets under IFRS 9, primarily including debt securities, loans and deposits, receivables and cash and cash equivalents. These financial
assets are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently, they are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method less any impairment losses. Interest revenue from debt
securities measured at amortised cost is recognised in investment return in the consolidated income statement using the effective interest method.
Best estimate liabilities (BEL) represent the present value of best estimate future cash flows discounted at the IFRS 17 discount rates.
Comprehensive equity is defined as shareholders' equity plus net CSM.
Contractual service margin (CSM) is a component of the carrying amount of the asset or liability under IFRS 17 for a group of insurance contracts representing the unearned profit the Group will recognise as it
provides insurance contract services under the insurance contracts in the group. The balance is on discounted basis, presented after allowing for reinsurance unless otherwise stated. Please refer to note 2.3.6
to the FY22 consolidated financial information for details.
Deferred acquisition costs (DAC) are expenses of an insurer under IFRS 4 which are incurred in connection with the acquisition of new insurance contracts or the renewal of existing insurance contracts. They
include commissions and other variable sales inducements and the direct costs of issuing the policy, such as underwriting and other policy issue expenses. These costs are deferred and expensed to the
consolidated income statement on a systematic basis over the life of the policy.
EV Equity is the total of embedded value, goodwill and other intangible assets attributable to shareholders of the Company, after allowing for taxes.
Expected credit losses is a forward-looking model under IFRS 9, replacing the incurred loss model in IAS 39. The new impairment model applies to financial assets measured at amortised cost, debt securities
at fair value through other comprehensive income, trade receivables and lease receivables. It represents the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of a default occurring as the weights.
Please refer to note 11 to the FY22 consolidated financial information for details.
Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) represents a type of recognition and measurement of financial assets and liabilities under IFRS 9 where changes in fair value are recognised in other
comprehensive income. Please refer to note 2.5.1 to the FY22 consolidated financial information for details.
Fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) represents a type of recognition and measurement of financial assets under IFRS 9 where changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss as part of net investment
result. Please refer to note 2.5.1 to the FY22 consolidated financial information for details.
Free surplus is the excess of the market value of AIA's assets over the sum of the statutory liabilities, required capital and adjustment for certain assets not eligible for regulatory capital purposes.
