Regulations relating to Banks

Chapter II : Financial, Risk-based and other related Returns and Instructions, Directives and Interpretations relating to the completion thereof

8. Calculation of averages

 

(1) Whenever relevant or required, unless specifically otherwise stated, the average daily balance for a month in respect of any liability or asset item, or any other balance or prescribed magnitude, identified in the prescribed forms, shall be calculated by totalling the amounts thereof for each day of the month and by dividing such total by the number of calendar days in the particular month to which the statement relates.

 

(2) The balance to be used in respect of any day on which the reporting bank is not open for business shall be the total of the relevant liability or asset item, balance or magnitude as at the close of business on the preceding business day.

 

(3) When a bank is unable to calculate an average daily balance for a month, as envisaged in subregulation (1), the bank concerned may apply to the Registrar for approval to use, in respect of a particular item, the month-end figure for the reporting month and the relevant figures for the preceding two month-ends to calculate an average balance. (A bank shall indicate, in its application to the Registrar, the approximate average difference between the month-end figure and the average daily balance for the particular item and by which date it expects to be able to calculate an average daily balance for the month, as envisaged in subregulation (1)).
