Attention: Dr. Teodosije Celenkovlc, Agent


Mr. Vladimir Lincerski, Deputy General Manager
we have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Udruzena Beogradska Banka -

income and changes in capital funds for the two years then ended, cash flows
for the year ended December 31, 1988 and changes in financial position for the
year ended December 31, 1987. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Agency’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements based on our audits.
we conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
s~andards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examinin@, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion. ,

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in


all material respects, the financial position of Udruzena Beogradska Banka -
New York Agency as of December 31, 1988 and 1987, and the results of its
operations for the two years then ended, its cash flows for the year ended
December 31, 1988 and its changes in financial position for the year ended
December 31, 1987 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

As mentioned.in Note l, the Agency has presented a statement of cash flows for
the year ended December 31, 1988 and a statement 0£ changes in ~inancial
position for the year esded December 31, 1987.

The financial statements referred to above have been prepared from the separate
records maintained by the New York Agency and may not necessarily be indicative
of the conditions that would have existed or the results of operations if the
Agency had been operated as an unaffiliated entity. Transactions and
relationships between the Agency and its Head Office are described in Notes 1

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1988 AND 1987

i. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SrGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING FOLIC£ES

Orqanization
The Udruzena Beogradska Banka - New York Agency (the "Agency") is licensed
under Article V of the Banking Laws of New York State. Udruzena Beogradska
Banka (the "Bank") is an associated bank with its Head Office in Belgrade,
Yugoslavia.

Allocation of Head Office Expenses

The allocation of Head Office expenses in the statements of income is


comprised of direct and indirect administrative expenses incurred by the
Head Office.

Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses


Loans are stated at the principal amount outstanding net of the allowance
for loan losses. Interest on loans is recognized on the accrual basis.

The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan
losses charged to expenses. Loans are charged against the allowance for
loan losses when management believes that the collectibility of the principal
is unlikely. The allowance is an amount that management believes will be
adequate to absorb losses inherent in existing loans and commitments to
extend credit, based on evaluations of their collectibility and prior loss
experience. ~

Premises and Equipment


Premises and equipment are .stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and
amortization. Depreciation of equipment is computed by the straight-line
method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improve-
ments are being amortized using the straight-lin~ method over the terms Of
the leases.

Statement of Cash Flows

The Agency has adopted cash flow reporting as called for in Statement o£
Financial Accounting Standards No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows ("FASB 95").
The balance sheet caption "cash and due from banks" is considered to be cash
and cash equivalents as defined in FASB 95.

Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into
United States dollars at exchange rates prevailing as of the balance sheet
date. The profit or loss resulting from the difference between contract
exchange rates and the market rates is included in the statements of income
in other income.

Income Taxes

The tax provision for the years ended December 31, 1988 and 1987 was
computed in accordance with the accounting standards o£ AS8 Opinion No. ii. ¯
Effective January I, 1990, the Bank must adopt the iscome tax accounting
standards set forth in FASB Statement No. 96, which supersedes Opinion
No. Ii. The Bank is in the process of evaluating the effects of the new
pronouncement on its financial statements, but expects these effects to be
immaterial.

The Bank is subject to U.S. federal, taxation on that portion of income which
is effectively connected with the operations in the United States.

2. TRANSACTIONS WITH HEAD OFFICE

The Agency, in accordance with Yugoslav banking regulations, accepts dollar


time deposit accounts and other interest-bearing accounts from Head Office
and redeposits dollars at Head Office, which Head Office relends to Yugoslav
entities. The obligations between Head Office and the Agency are generally
matched as to maturity with an interest differential.to the Agency to cover
administrative costs. Funds allocated as capital funds bear interest at 3%.
