Except as described in the accompanying prospectus under “Description of the Securities—Description of Debt Securities—Global Securities,” the global notes will not be exchangeable for Notes in definitive registered form, and will not be issued in definitive registered form.

See “Underwriting—Delivery of the Notes.”
S-4
RISK FACTOR
Prior to making an investment decision, prospective purchasers of the Notes should carefully consider, along with the other matters set out in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, the following factor.
If the Mexican Peso Depreciates Against the U.S. Dollar, the Effective U.S. Dollar Yield on the Notes Will Decrease Below the Interest Rate on the Notes, and the Amount Payable at Maturity May Be Less Than Your Investment, Resulting in a Loss to You
Exchange rates between the U.S. Dollar and the Mexican peso have varied significantly from year to year and period to period. Historical peso/U.S. Dollar exchange rates are presented under “Exchange Rates” in this prospectus supplement. Mexican governmental policies or actions or political or economic developments in Mexico or elsewhere could lead to significant and sudden changes in the exchange rate between the peso and the U.S. Dollar. If the Mexican peso depreciates against the U.S. Dollar, the effective yield on the Notes measured in U.S. Dollars will decrease below the interest rate on the Notes and the amount payable on the Notes at maturity in Mexican pesos may be less than your U.S. Dollar investment, resulting in a loss to you. Depreciation of the Mexican peso against the U.S. Dollar may also adversely affect the market value of the Notes.
S-5
USE OF PROCEEDS
We will use the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes for our general operations, including repayment of our maturing debt and other obligations.
S-6
EXCHANGE RATES
Since December 22, 1994, Mexico has maintained a floating exchange rate policy, withBanco de México (Mexico’s central bank) intervening in the foreign exchange market from time to time to minimize volatility and ensure an orderly market. There can be no assurance that the government will maintain its current policies with regard to the peso or that the peso will not further depreciate or appreciate significantly in the future.
The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the high, low, average and period-end noon buying rate in New York City for cable transfers in pesos published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, expressed in pesos per U.S. Dollar. The rates have not been restated in constant currency units and therefore represent nominal historical figures.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, we had net income of (Won)139.1 billion compared to net income of (Won)166.5 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
The principal factors for the decrease in net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2006 included:
| • | | a decrease in gain on disposal of available-for-sale securities to (Won)68.4 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from (Won)184.4 billion in the same period of 2006; the (Won)68.4 billion gain in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 reflected principally the sale of our equity interest in SK Networks and the (Won)184.4 billion gain in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 reflected principally the sale of our equity interest in Korea Exchange Bank; |
| • | | an increase in net foreign exchange trading losses to (Won)314.3 billion in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from (Won)44.4 billion in the same period of 2006, primarily due to losses on Euro-denominated liability transactions resulting from the appreciation of the Euro against the Won and losses on Dollar-denominated asset transactions resulting from the depreciation of the Dollar against the Won; and |
| • | | an increase in provision for acceptance and guarantee losses to (Won)117.9 billion in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from (Won)48.2 billion in the same period of 2006, primarily due to an increase in guarantees. |
The above factors were partially offset by (1) net gain on derivative instruments of (Won)291.7 billion in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to net loss on derivative instruments of (Won)6.6 billion in the same period of 2006, (2) reversals of (Won)62.3 billion of acceptance and guarantee loss provisions in the nine months ended September 30, 2007, and (3) an increase in net interest income to (Won)199.7 billion in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from (Won)164.1 billion in the same period of 2006.
As of September 30, 2007, our total assets increased by 25.8% to (Won)21,942.1 billion from (Won)17,448.5 billion as of December 31, 2006, primarily due to a 27.7% increase in loans to (Won)19,215.2 billion as of September 30, 2007 from (Won)15,050.5 billion as of December 31, 2006.
As of September 30, 2007, our total liabilities increased by 34.2% to (Won)17,025.9 billion from (Won)12,688.5 billion as of December 31, 2006. The increase in liabilities was primarily due to a 37.7% increase in debentures to (Won)13,787.1 billion as of September 30, 2007 from (Won)10,011.8 billion as of December 31, 2006.
S-10
The increase in assets and liabilities was primarily due to an increase in the volume of loans and debt, respectively. The appreciation of the Won against the Dollar for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the same period of 2006 partially offset the effect of the increase in the volume of loans and debt, as a majority of our assets and liabilities consisted of foreign currency loans and debt, respectively.
As of September 30, 2007, our total shareholders’ equity increased by 3.3% to (Won)4,916.1 billion from (Won)4,759.9 billion as of December 31, 2006 primarily due to an increase in retained earnings by (Won)122.2 billion.
As of September 30, 2007, our capital adequacy ratio was 9.87%, a decrease from 11.88% as of December 31, 2006, primarily as a result of an increase in guarantees.
The following table sets forth our capital base and capital adequacy ratios reported as of September 30, 2007:

| • | | a decrease in gain on disposal of available-for-sale securities to (Won)55.6 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from (Won)184.4 billion in the same period of 2006; the (Won)55.6 billion gain in the six months ended June 30, 2007 reflected principally the sale of our equity interest in SK Networks and the (Won)184.4 billion gain in the six months ended June 30, 2006 reflected principally the sale of our equity interest in Korea Exchange Bank; |
| • | | an increase in net foreign exchange trading losses to (Won)110.7 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from (Won)44.8 billion in the same period of 2006, primarily due to losses on Euro-denominated liability transactions resulting from the appreciation of the Euro against the Won and losses on Dollar-denominated asset transactions resulting from the depreciation of the Dollar against the Won; and |
S-12
| • | | an increase in provision for acceptance and guarantee losses to (Won)84.0 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from (Won)28.2 billion in the same period of 2006, primarily due to an increase in guarantees. |
The above factors were partially offset by (1) net gain on derivative instruments of (Won)99.3 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to net loss on derivative instruments of (Won)28.3 billion in the same period of 2006 and (2) an increase in net interest income to (Won)139.5 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2007 from (Won)102.8 billion in the same period of 2006.
As of June 30, 2007, our total assets increased by 13.7% to (Won)19,831.8 billion from (Won)17,448.5 billion as of December 31, 2006, primarily due to a 15.5% increase in loans to (Won)17,379.7 billion as of June 30, 2007 from (Won)15,050.5 billion as of December 31, 2006.
As of June 30, 2007, our total liabilities increased by 17.9% to (Won)14,961.3 billion from (Won)12,688.5 billion as of December 31, 2006. The increase in liabilities was primarily due to a 21.7% increase in debentures to (Won)12,182.3 billion as of June 30, 2007 from (Won)10,011.8 billion as of December 31, 2006.
The increase in assets and liabilities was primarily due to an increase in the volume of loans and debt, respectively. The appreciation of the Won against the Dollar for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the same period of 2006 partially offset the effect of the increase in the volume of loans and debt, as a majority of our assets and liabilities consisted of foreign currency loans and debt, respectively.
As of June 30, 2007, our total shareholders’ equity increased by 2.3% to (Won)4,870.5 billion from (Won)4,759.9 billion as of December 31, 2006 primarily due to an increase in retained earnings by (Won)71.7 billion.

THE EXPORT-IMPORT BANK OF KOREA
NOTES TO NON-CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2007
1. General:
The Export-Import Bank of Korea (the “Bank”) was established in 1976 as a special financial institution under the Export-Import Bank of Korea Act (the “EXIM Bank Act”) to engage in facilitating export and import transactions, overseas investments and overseas resources development through the extension of loans and other financial facilities. The Bank has eleven domestic branches, four overseas subsidiaries and twelve overseas offices as of June 30, 2007.
The Bank has (Won)4,000,000 million of authorized capital and as of June 30, 2007, its paid-in capital is (Won)3,305,755 million through several capital increases. The Bank is owned by the Government of the Republic of Korea (the “Government”), the Bank of Korea (“BOK”) and Korea Development Bank with 60.11%, 35.24% and 4.65% shareholding, respectively, as of June 30, 2007.
The Bank, as an agent of the Government, has managed The Economic Development Cooperation Fund and the Inter-Korean Cooperation Fund (the “Funds”) since June 1987 and March 1991, respectively. The Funds are managed under separate accounts from the Bank’s own accounts and not included in the accompanying non-consolidated financial statements. The related management commissions are received from the Government.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Basis of Non-consolidated Financial Statement Presentation
The Bank maintains its official accounting records in Korean Won and prepares statutory non-consolidated financial statements in the Korean language (Hangul) in conformity with the accounting principles and banking accounting standards generally accepted in the Republic of Korea. Certain accounting principles and banking accounting standards applied by the Bank that conform with financial accounting standards and accounting principles in the Republic of Korea may not conform with generally accepted accounting principles and banking accounting practices in other countries. Accordingly, these non-consolidated financial statements are intended for use by those who are informed about Korean accounting principles and practices. The accompanying financial statements have been condensed, restructured and translated into English (with certain expanded descriptions) from the Korean language non-consolidated financial statements. Certain information included in the Korean language financial statements, but not required for a fair presentation of the Bank’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows, is not presented in the accompanying financial statements.
The significant accounting policies followed by the Bank in preparing the accompanying financial statements are summarized below.
Interest Income Recognition
The Bank applies the accrual basis in recognizing interest income related to deposits, loans and securities, except for non-secured uncollectible receivables. Interest on loans, whose principal or interest is past due at the balance sheet date, is generally not accrued, with the exception of interest on certain loans secured by guarantee of governments or government agencies, or collateralized by bank deposits. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, previously accrued interest is generally reversed
S-27
THE EXPORT-IMPORT BANK OF KOREA
NOTES TO NON-CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2007
and deducted from current interest income; and future interest income is recognized on cash basis in accordance with the accounting standards of the banking industry. As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the accrued interest income not recognized in the accompanying financial statements based on the above criteria, amounted to (Won)48,664 million and (Won)16,373 million, respectively.
Classification of Securities
At acquisition, the Bank classifies securities into one of the following categories: trading, available-for-sale, held-to-maturity and securities using the equity method, depending on marketability, acquisition purpose and ability to hold. Debt and equity securities that are bought and held for the purpose of selling them in the near term and actively traded over-the-counter are classified as trading securities. Debt securities with fixed and determinable payments and fixed maturity that an enterprise has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity securities. Securities that should be valuated with the equity method are classified as securities using the equity method. Debt and equity securities not classified as the above are categorized as available-for-sale securities.
If the objective and ability to hold securities of the Bank change, available-for-sale securities can be reclassified as held-to-maturity securities and vice-versa. However, if the Bank sells held-to-maturity securities or requires the issuer to redeem the securities early in the current year and the proceeding two years, or if it reclassifies held-to-maturity securities as available-for-sale securities, all debt securities that are owned or purchased cannot be classified as held-to-maturity securities. On the other hand, trading securities cannot be re-categorized as available-for-sale or held-to-maturity securities and the other categories cannot be reclassified as trading securities. Nevertheless, trading securities can be reclassified as available-for-sale securities only when the fair value of the trading securities cannot be readily determinable.
Valuation of Securities
(1) Valuation of Trading Securities
Trading equity and debt securities are initially recognized at acquisition cost plus incidental expenses determined by the individual method. When the face value of trading debt securities differs from its acquisition cost, the effective interest method is applied to amortize the difference over the remaining term of the securities. After initial recognition, trading securities are valued at fair value if the fair value of trading securities differs from its acquisition cost. The carrying value is adjusted to the fair value and the resulting valuation gain or loss is charged to current operations.
(2) Valuation of Held-to-maturity Securities
Held-to-maturity securities are initially recognized at acquisition cost plus incidental expenses, determined by the individual method. When the face value of held-to-maturity securities differs from its acquisition cost, the effective interest method is applied to amortize the difference over
S-28
THE EXPORT-IMPORT BANK OF KOREA
NOTES TO NON-CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2007
the remaining term of the securities. If collectible value is below the amortized cost and the pervasive evidence of impairment exists, the carrying value is adjusted to collectible value and the resulting valuation loss is charged to current operations.
(3) Valuation of Available-for-sale Securities
Available-for-sale securities are initially recognized at acquisition cost plus incidental expenses, determined by the individual method. The effective interest method is applied to amortize the difference between the face value and the acquisition cost over the remaining term of the debt security. After initial recognition, available-for-sale securities are stated at fair value, with the net unrealized gain or loss presented as gain or loss on valuation of available-for-sale securities in accumulated other comprehensive income. Accumulated other comprehensive income of securities are charged to current operations in a lump sum at the time of disposal or impairment recognition. Non-marketable equity securities are stated at acquisition cost on the financial statements if the fair value of the securities is not reliably determinable.
If the fair value of equity securities (net asset fair value in case of non-marketable equity securities stated at acquisition cost) is below the acquisition cost and the pervasive evidence of impairment exists, the carrying value is adjusted to fair value and the resulting valuation loss is charged to current operations. If the collectible value of debt securities is below the amortized cost and the pervasive evidence of impairment exists, the carrying value is adjusted to collectible value and the resulting valuation loss is charged to current operations. With respect to impaired securities, any unrealized valuation gain or loss of securities previously included in the accumulated other comprehensive income is reversed.
(4) Valuation of Securities Using the Equity Method
Equity securities held for investment in companies in which the Bank is able to exercise significant influence over the investees are accounted for using the equity method. The Bank’s share in net income or net loss of investees is included in current operations. Changes in the retained earnings of investee are reflected in the retained earnings. Changes in the capital surplus, capital adjustments or accumulated other comprehensive income of investee are reflected as gain or loss on valuation of securities accounted for using the equity method in accumulated other comprehensive income.
(5) Recovery of Loss on Impairment of Available-for-Sale Securities and Held-to-Maturity Securities
If the reasons for impairment losses on available-for-sale securities no longer exist, the recovery is recorded in current operations under operating revenue up to amount of the previously recognized impairment loss as reversal of impairment loss on available-for-sale securities and any excess is included in accumulated other comprehensive income as gain on valuation of available-for-sale securities. However, if the increases in the fair value of the impaired securities are not regarded as the recovery of the impairment, the increases in the fair value are recorded as gain on valuation of available-for-sale securities in accumulated other comprehensive income. For non-marketable
S-29
THE EXPORT-IMPORT BANK OF KOREA
NOTES TO NON-CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2007
equity securities, which were impaired based on the net asset fair value, the recovery is recorded up to their acquisition cost.
(6) Reclassification of Securities
When held-to-maturity securities are reclassified to available-for-sale securities, those securities are accounted for at fair value on the reclassification date and the difference between the fair value and book value is reported in accumulated other comprehensive income as gain or loss on valuation of available-for-sale securities. When available-for-sale securities are reclassified to held-to-maturity securities, gain or loss on valuation of available-for-sale securities, which had been recorded until the reclassification date, continue to be included in accumulated other comprehensive income and be amortized using the effective interest rate method and the amortized amount is charged to interest income until maturity. The difference between the fair value at the reclassification date and face value of the reclassified securities to held-to-maturity securities is amortized using effective interest rate method and the amortized amount is charged to interest income. In addition, when certain trading securities lose their marketability, such securities are reclassified as available-for-sale securities at fair market value as of reclassification date.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The Supervisory Regulation of Banking Business (the “Supervisory Regulation”) legislated by the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) requires the Bank to classify all credits into five categories as normal, precautionary, substandard, doubtful, or estimated loss based on borrowers’ repayment capability using Forward Looking Criteria (the “FLC”) as well as past due period and status of any bankruptcy proceedings. The Supervisory Regulation also requires the Bank to provide the minimum rate of loan loss provision for each category balance using the prescribed minimum percentages. Based on the standards, the Bank generates the credit ratings considering the borrowers’ industry risk, individual credit risk and financial risk based on the FLC as follows:
| | | | |
Classification | | Credit ratings | | Provision rates |
Normal | | P1~ P6 | | 0.70% or more |
Precautionary | | SM | | 15% or more |
Substandard | | S | | 40% or more |
Doubtful | | D | | 90% or more |
Estimated loss | | F | | 100% |
Provisions are applied to all loans excluding call loans and inter-bank loans, which are classified as ‘normal’.
Loans classified as normal have been subdivided into domestic loans and overseas loans. The former was again subdivided into small and medium-sized business loans and big enterprise loans. The allowance was assessed based on the rate of basic provision and default risk by maturity (the variation of accumulated average bankruptcy rates for periods assessed by domestic credit rating agencies). The rate of basic allowance for small and medium-sized business loans was computed using the historical
S-30
THE EXPORT-IMPORT BANK OF KOREA
NOTES TO NON-CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2007
loss experience rate based on the loss experience for the past seven years. However, the domestic banks’ average provision rate for normal loans is applied to the allowance for big enterprise loans due to the lack of statistical significance of the difference between the historical loss experience rate and actual rate of losses on credits. The allowance for overseas normal loans is assessed based on the sovereign credit ratings and type of borrowers (public or private). The provisions are the differences between the discounted value of the sovereign loans and the present value of the risk-free loan with the same conditions. The applied rate for private business is one grade lower than the rate for the public business with the same credit risk. In addition, the Bank provided additional allowance for the top 5 businesses loan and for the 5 sovereign loans in terms of its balance whose credit ratings are lower than C1 in regards with sovereignty considering the credit centralization risk in terms of borrowers’ sovereignty and business.
Pursuant to the Supervisory Regulation of Banking Business, the Bank has provided the allowance for possible losses on acceptances and guarantees to unconfirmed acceptances and guarantees and unused credit line of loan commitments based on the credit classification and minimum rate of loss provision prescribed by the Financial Supervisory Service and the cash conversion factor of the respective exposures.
Restructuring of Loans
The equity interest in the debtors, net of real estates and/or other assets received as full or partial satisfaction of the Bank’s loans, collected through reorganization proceedings, court mediation or debt restructuring agreements of parties concerned, is recorded at fair value at the time of the restructuring. In cases where the fair value of the assets received are less than the book value of the loan (book value before allowances), the Bank offsets first the book value against allowances for loans and then recognizes provisions for loans. Impairment losses for loans that were restructured in a troubled debt restructuring involving a modification of terms are computed by the difference between the present value of future cash flows under debt restructuring agreements discounted at effective interest rates at the time when loans are originated and the book value before allowances for loans. If the amount of allowances already established is less than the impairment losses under the workout plans, the Bank establishes additional allowances for the difference. Otherwise, the Bank reverses the allowances for loan losses.
Valuation of Receivables and Payables at Present Value
Receivables and payables incurred through long-term installment transactions, long-term borrowing and lending transactions, and other similar transactions are stated at the present value of expected future cash flows, unless the difference between nominal value and present value is immaterial. Present value discount or premium is amortized using the effective interest rate method and credited or charged to interest income or interest expense.
Valuation and Depreciation of Tangible Assets
Tangible assets are stated at acquisition cost or production cost including the incidental expenses and capital expenditures, except for assets revalued upward in accordance with the Asset Revaluation
S-31
THE EXPORT-IMPORT BANK OF KOREA
NOTES TO NON-CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2007
Law of Korea. Routine maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Expenditures that result in the enhancement of the value or extension of the useful lives of the facilities involved are capitalized as additions to tangible assets.
Depreciation is computed using the declining-balance method (straight-line method for buildings purchased since January 1, 1995 and leasehold improvements) based on the estimated useful lives of the assets as prescribed by the Corporate Income Tax Law of Korea as follows:
| | |
| | Years |
Buildings | | 10~60 |
Vehicles | | 4 |
Furniture and fixtures | | 4~20 |
Valuation and Amortization of Intangible Assets
Intangible assets included in other assets are recorded at the production cost or purchase cost, plus incidental expenses and capital expenditures, and deducted by purchase discount, if any. Expenditures incurred in conjunction with the development of new products or technology and others, in which the elements of costs can be individually identified and future economic benefits expected, are capitalized as development costs under intangible assets. Intangible assets are amortized using the reasonable amortization method over the reasonable useful life under 5 years for development costs and other intangible assets.
Recognition of Asset Impairment
When the book value of assets (other than securities and assets valued at present value) exceeds the collective value of the assets due to obsolescence, physical damage or a sharp decrease in market value and the difference is material, the book value are adjusted to collective value in the balance sheet and the resulting impairment loss is charged to current operations. If the collective value of the assets increases in subsequent years, the increase in value is credited to operations as gain until the collective value equals the book value of assets that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized. The Bank assessed the collective value based on expected selling price or appraisal value.
Amortization of Discount (Premium) on Debentures
Discount or premium on debentures issued is amortized over the period from issuance to maturity using the effective interest rate method. Amortization of discount or premium is recognized as interest expense or interest income on the debentures.
Contingent Liabilities
A possible obligation that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Bank is recognized as contingent liabilities when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits required and the amount of the obligation can be measured with
S-32
THE EXPORT-IMPORT BANK OF KOREA
NOTES TO NON-CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2007
sufficient reliability. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the amount of the liabilities is the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation. In addition, as some or all expenditures required to settle a provision are expected to be reimbursed by another party, the reimbursement is recognized as separate assets in the balance sheet and related income may be offset against expense in the income statement.
Accrued Severance Benefits
Employees and directors with more than one year of employment are entitled to receive a lump-sum payment upon termination of their employment with the Bank, based on their length of employment and rate of pay at the time of termination. The Bank had deposited the partial amount of future estimated severance benefits in National Pension Fund in accordance with the former National Pension Law. These are recorded as contra accounts of accrued severance benefits of the Bank.
Accounting for Financial Derivative Instruments
The Bank accounts for financial derivative instruments pursuant to the Interpretations on Financial Accounting Standards 53-70 on accounting for financial derivative instruments. Financial derivative instruments are classified as used for trading activities or for hedging activities according to their transaction purpose. All derivative instruments are accounted for at fair value with the valuation gain or loss recorded as an asset or a liability. If the derivative instrument is not part of a transaction qualifying as a hedge, the adjustment to fair value is reflected in current operations.
The accounting for derivative transactions that are part of a qualified hedge based both on the purpose of the transaction and on meeting the specified criteria for hedge accounting differs depending on whether the transaction is a fair value hedge or a cash flow hedge. Fair value hedge accounting is applied to a derivative instrument designated as hedging the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset or a liability or a firm commitment (hedged item) that is attributable to a particular risk. The gain or loss both on the hedging derivative instruments and on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk is reflected in current operations. Cash flow hedge accounting is applied to a derivative instrument designated as hedging the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows of an asset or a liability or a forecasted transaction that is attributable to a particular risk. The effective portion of gain or loss on a derivative instrument designated as a cash flow hedge is recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income and the ineffective portion is recorded in current operations. The effective portion of gain or loss recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income is reclassified to current earnings in the same period during which the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense is the amount currently payable for the period added to or deducted from the changes in deferred income taxes. However, deferred income tax assets are recognized only if the future tax benefits from accumulated temporary differences and any tax loss carryforwards are realizable. The difference between the amount currently payable for the period and income tax expense is accounted for as deferred income tax assets or liabilities, which will be charged or credited to income tax expense in the period each temporary difference reverses in the future. Deferred income tax

NOTES TO NON-CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2007
assets or liabilities are calculated based on the expected tax rate to be applied at the reversal period of the related assets or liabilities. Tax payable and deferred income tax assets or liabilities with regards to certain items are charged or credited directly to related components of shareholders’ equity.
Accounting for Foreign Currency Transactions and Translation
The Bank maintains its accounts in Korean Won. Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded in Korean Won based on the prevailing rate of exchange on the transaction date. The Korean Won equivalent of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated in these financial statements based on the basic rate ((Won)926.80 and (Won)929.60 to USD 1.00 at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively) announced by Seoul Money Brokerage Service, Ltd. or cross rates for other currencies other than U.S. Dollars at the balance sheet dates. Translation gains and losses are credited or charged to operations. Financial statements of overseas branches are translated based on the basic rate at the balances sheet dates.
Discontinued Operation
A discontinued operation refers to a component of the Bank that is capable of being distinguished operationally for financial reporting purposes and is capable of being identified as a major line of business or geographical area of operations, and that the Bank, pursuant to a single plan of discontinuance, substantially disposes in its entirety, such as by selling it in a single transaction; sells off its assets and settles its liabilities individually or in small groups; or terminates it through abandonment. The income (loss) from continuing operation and discontinued operation was not distinguished and separately presented as there was no discontinued operation in the prior year and current period.
Application of the Statement of Korea Accounting Standards
The Korea Accounting Standard Board (KASB) under the Korea Accounting Institute (KAI) issued the Statements of Korea Accounting Standards (SKAS) for achieving a set of Korean accounting standards that should be internationally acceptable and comparable based on SKAS Act 92. The Bank adopted SKAS No.1 (Accounting Changes and Error Corrections) through SKAS No.20 (Related Party Disclosures) (excluding SKAS No.11 and No.14) as of or before December 31, 2006, and SKAS No.11 (Discontinued Operation) and SKAS No.21 (Preparation and Presentation of Financial Statements) through SKAS No.25 (Consolidated Financial Statements) have been adopted since January 1, 2007.

In addition, the Bank has reclassified the components of the cash flows; such as, changes in available-for-sale securities, held-to-maturity securities and loans that were presented under cash flows from investing activities are currently presented under cash flows from operating activities.

With earlier adoption of amended SKAS No.2 (Interim Financial Reporting), the Bank presented the statements of cash flows and changes in shareholders’ equity for year-to-date period of the current fiscal year.
Earning Per Share
Earning per share is not computed because the capital of the Bank does not stem from stock issuance.
Reclassification
Certain accounts of the prior period were reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation for comparative purposes; however, reclassifications had no effect on the previously reported prior period net income or shareholders’ equity of the Bank.

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES
The following is a description of some of the terms of the Notes we are offering. Since it is only a summary, we urge you to read the fiscal agency agreement described below and the form of global notes before deciding whether to invest in the Notes. We have filed a copy of these documents with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as exhibits to the registration statement no. 333-136378.
The general terms of our Notes are described in the accompanying prospectus. The description in this prospectus supplement further adds to that description or, to the extent inconsistent with that description, replaces it.
Governed by Fiscal Agency Agreement
We will issue the Notes under the fiscal agency agreement, dated as of August 1, 1991, between us and The Bank of New York (formerly JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.), as fiscal agent, as amended or supplemented from time to time (the “Fiscal Agency Agreement”). The fiscal agent will maintain a register for the Notes.
Payment of Principal and Interest
The Notes are initially limited to MXN 1,200,000,000 aggregate principal amount and will mature on January 28, 2013 (the “Maturity Date”). The Notes will bear interest for each Interest Period (as defined below) at a rate equal to the TIIE Rate (as defined below) plus 0.30% per annum, payable monthly in arrears on the 28th day of each month (each an “Interest Payment Date”), beginning on February 28, 2008. Interest on the Notes will accrue from January 28, 2008. If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a business day (as defined below), then payment will not be made on such date but will be made on the next succeeding day that is a business day, with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date (as the case may be), and no interest shall be payable in respect of such delay. The term “business day” as used herein means a day other than a Saturday, a Sunday, or any other day on which banking institutions in Mexico City, The City of New York, London or Seoul are authorized or required by law or executive order to remain closed.
We will pay interest to the person who is registered as the owner of a Note at the close of business on the fifteenth day (whether or not a business day) preceding such Interest Payment Date. Interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. We will make principal and interest payments on the Notes through an agent in London, England that we will maintain for these purposes. Initially that agent will be The Bank of New York. We may change the paying agent without prior notice to the holders of the Notes.
The term “TIIE Rate” as used herein means the Tasa de Interés Interbancaria de Equilibrio (Interbank Equilibrium Interest Rate) for Mexican Pesos for a period of 28 days (the “Designated Maturity”) which is published in the Diario Oficial de la Federación (Official Gazette of the Federation) on the Interest Determination Date (as defined below). The rate may be replicated as set forth under the heading “TIIE” for the Designated Maturity or its equivalent as published by the Banco de México on its internet website page, http:/www.Banxico.org.mx/, or on the Reuters Screen MEX06 Page across from the caption “TIIE” for the Designated Maturity or its equivalent, in either case as of 2:00 p.m., Mexico City time, on the day that is one Mexico City Banking Day preceding the Interest
S-81
Determination Date. In the event of any discrepancy between the rate published in the Diario Oficial de la Federación and the rate published by the Banco de México on its internet website page or on the Reuters Screen MEX06 Page on the day that is one Mexico City Banking Day preceding the Interest Determination Date, the rate published in the Diario Oficial de la Federación will govern. If the rate is not published in the Diario Oficial de la Federación by 11:00 a.m. Mexico City time on the Interest Determination Date, then the rate for the relevant Interest Period will be determined as if the parties had specified MXN-TIIE-Reference Banks Rate (as defined below) as the applicable rate.
For the avoidance of doubt, if the rate is not published in the Diario Oficial de la Federación, rates replicated by the Banco de México on its internet website page or on Reuters Screen MEX06 Page shall not be valid.
“MXN-TIIE-Reference Banks Rate” means the rate for the relevant Interest Period determined on the basis of mid-market cost of funds of the Reference Banks for Mexican Pesos for a period of the Designated Maturity commencing on the relevant Interest Determination Date and in a representative amount at approximately 11:00 a.m., Mexico City time. The Calculation Agent (as defined below) will request the principal Mexico City office of each of the Reference Banks to provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two quotations are provided, the rate for that Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of the quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided, the rate for the relevant Interest Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion using such publicly available source or sources as it may consider appropriate and in accordance with standard market practice.
“Reference Banks” means the four leading banks in the Mexican interbank market, as determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion.
“Interest Determination Date” means the first day of the relevant Interest Period.
“Interest Period” refers to the period from and including January 28, 2008 to but excluding the first Interest Payment Date and each successive period from and including an Interest Payment Date to but excluding the next Interest Payment Date.
“Mexico City Banking Day” means a day on which commercial banks are open for business, including dealing in United States dollars, in Mexico City, Mexico.
“Reuters Screen” shall mean, when used in connection with any designated page, the display page so designated on the Reuters Money Market Rate Services or such other services or service as may be nominated as the information vendor for the purpose of displaying the specific page on that service or such other page as may replace that page on that service or such other service, in all cases for the purposes of displaying comparable rates in succession thereto.
The Bank of New York, acting through its London office, will serve as the “Calculation Agent” for the Notes. In the absence of willful default, bad faith or manifest error, the Calculation Agent’s determination of the TIIE Rate and its calculation of the applicable interest rate for each Interest Period will be final and binding. The Calculation Agent will make available the interest rates for current and
S-82
preceding Interest Periods by delivery of such notice through such medium as is available to participants in Euroclear and Clearstream, or any successor thereof, and in accordance with such applicable rules and procedures as long as the Notes are held in global form. In the event that the Notes are held in certificated form, the interest rates for current and preceding Interest Periods will be published in the manner described below under “—Notices”. We have the right to replace the Calculation Agent with the office of another leading commercial bank or investment bank in London or New York. If the appointed office of the Calculation Agent is unable or unwilling to continue to act as the Calculation Agent or fails to determine the interest rate for any Interest Period, we have a duty to appoint the office of such other leading commercial bank or investment bank in London or New York as may be approved in writing by the fiscal agent.
Payment Currency
Payment of principal, interest, additional amounts and any other amounts due in respect of the Notes will be made in Mexican pesos.
If, at the time any payment of principal, interest, additional amounts and any other amounts in respect of the Notes is due (each a “Required Payment”), the Mexican peso is no longer (i) used by the government of Mexico for the payment of public and private debts or (ii) used for settlement of transactions by public institutions in Mexico or within the international banking community or (iii) expected to be available, as a result of circumstances beyond our control, we shall be entitled to satisfy our obligations in respect of such Required Payment by making such Required Payment in U.S. Dollars (the “Alternative Payment Amount”), on the basis of the USD/MXN bid-spot foreign exchange rate, expressed as the number of U.S. Dollars (or part thereof) as at 12:30 p.m. (New York time) on the second business day prior to the relevant date of payment, for which one Mexican peso could be purchased as quoted on Reuters screen <MXN=D2> (or its successor page for the purpose of displaying such rates) or, if such rate is not available on such second business day, on the basis of the rate most recently available prior to such second business day. Any payment made under such circumstances in U.S. Dollars will constitute valid payment and will not constitute a default in respect of the Notes. Our communications, opinions and decisions given, expressed, made or obtained by us hereunder shall be in our sole discretion and shall (in the absence of manifest error, willful default or bad faith) be conclusive for all purposes and binding on us, the fiscal agent, the paying agents and the holders of the Notes. By acceptance thereof, purchasers of the Notes will be deemed to have acknowledged and agreed to, and to have waived any and all actual or potential conflicts of interest that may arise as a result of, the calculation of the Alternative Payment Amount by us.
Denomination
The Notes will be issued in minimum denominations of MXN 1,000,000 principal amount and integral multiples of MXN 1,000,000 in excess thereof.
Redemption
We may not redeem the Notes prior to maturity. At maturity, we will redeem the Notes at par.
S-83
Form and Registration
We will issue the Notes in the form of one or more fully registered global notes, registered in the name of a nominee of, and deposited with the common depositary for, Euroclear and Clearstream. Except as described in the accompanying prospectus under “Description of the Securities—Description of Debt Securities—Global Securities,” the global notes will not be exchangeable for Notes in definitive registered form, and will not be issued in definitive registered form. Financial institutions, acting as direct and indirect participants in Euroclear and Clearstream (including Indeval), will represent your beneficial interests in the global notes. These financial institutions will record the ownership and transfer of your beneficial interests through book-entry accounts. Ownership of beneficial interests in the Notes will be limited to persons who are participants in Euroclear and Clearstream and persons who hold interests through such participants. Any secondary market trading of book-entry interests in the Notes will take place through Euroclear and Clearstream participants. See “Clearance and Settlement—Transfers Within and Between Euroclear and Clearstream.”
The fiscal agent will not charge you any fees for the Notes, other than reasonable fees for the replacement of lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed Notes. However, you may incur fees for the maintenance and operation of the book-entry accounts with the clearing systems in which your beneficial interests are held.
Copies of the Fiscal Agency Agreement are available for inspection during normal business hours by the Noteholders at the office for the time being of The Bank of New York at 101 Barclays Street, 4 East, New York, NY 10286.
Notices
While the Notes are represented by the global note deposited with the common depositary for Euroclear and Clearstream, notices to holders may be given by delivery to Euroclear and Clearstream, and such notices will be deemed to be given on the date of delivery to Euroclear and Clearstream. The fiscal agent will also mail notices by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to each registered holder’s last known address as it appears in the security register that the fiscal agent maintains. The fiscal agent will only mail these notices to the registered holder of the Notes. You will not receive notices regarding the Notes directly from us unless we reissue the Notes to you in fully certificated form.
Neither the failure to give any notice to a particular holder, nor any defect in a notice given to a particular holder, will affect the sufficiency of any notice given to another holder.
S-84
CLEARANCE AND SETTLEMENT
We have obtained the information in this section from sources we believe to be reliable, including Euroclear and Clearstream. We accept responsibility only for accurately extracting information from such sources. Euroclear and Clearstream are under no obligation to perform or continue to perform the procedures described below, and they may modify or discontinue them at any time. Neither we nor the registrar will be responsible for Euroclear’s or Clearstream’s performance of their obligations under their rules and procedures, nor will we or the registrar be responsible for the performance by direct or indirect participants of their obligations under their rules and procedures.
Introduction
Euroclear and Clearstream
Euroclear and Clearstream hold securities for their participants and facilitate the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between their participants through electronic book-entry changes in their accounts. Euroclear and Clearstream provide various services to their participants, including the safekeeping, administration, clearance and settlement and lending and borrowing of internationally traded securities. Participants in Euroclear and Clearstream are financial institutions such as underwriters, securities brokers and dealers, banks and trust companies. Some of the underwriters participating in this offering are participants in Euroclear or Clearstream. Other banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies have indirect access to Euroclear or Clearstream by clearing through or maintaining a custodial relationship with a Euroclear or Clearstream participant.
Ownership of Notes through Euroclear and Clearstream
We will issue the Notes in the form of one or more fully registered global notes, registered in the name of a nominee of, and deposited with the common depositary for, Euroclear and Clearstream. Beneficial interests in the Notes can only be held in the form of book-entry interests through Euroclear/ Clearstream participants in such systems, or indirectly through organizations that are Euroclear/ Clearstream participants in such systems. Owners of book-entry interests in the Notes will receive payments relating to their Notes in Mexican pesos.
We and the fiscal agent generally will treat the registered holder of the Notes, initially The Bank of New York Depository (Nominees) Limited, as the absolute owner of the Notes for all purposes. Once we and the fiscal agent make payments to the registered holder, we and the fiscal agent will no longer be liable on the Notes for the amounts so paid. Accordingly, if you own a beneficial interest in the global notes, you must rely on the procedures of the institutions through which you hold your interests in the Notes, including Euroclear, Clearstream and their respective Euroclear/Clearstream participants, to exercise any of the rights granted to holders of Notes.
Indeval
Holders of the Notes may own beneficial interests in the global notes through the facilities of S.D. Indeval Institución para el Depósito de Valores, S.A. de C.V. (“Indeval”) in Mexico, which is a participant in each of Clearstream and Euroclear. Indeval is a privately owned securities depositary that is authorized and acts as a clearinghouse, depositary and central custodian for securities in Mexico. As such, Indeval provides settlement and transfer services and is the registration agent for Mexican securities transactions, eliminating the need for physical transfer of securities. Holders who own beneficial interests in the Notes through Indeval may be required to certify as to their residency in accordance with the procedures of Indeval.
S-85
Transfers Within and Between Euroclear and Clearstream
Trading Between Euroclear and/or Clearstream Participants
Participants in Euroclear and Clearstream will transfer interests in the Notes among themselves according to the rules and operating procedures of Euroclear and Clearstream.
S-86
UNITED STATES TAX CONSIDERATIONS
Stated interest on the Notes will be treated as qualified stated interest for U.S. federal income tax purposes. For a discussion of certain U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to you if you invest in the Notes, see “Taxation—United States Tax Considerations” in the accompanying prospectus.
S-87
UNDERWRITING
Relationship with the Underwriter
We and the underwriter named below (the “Underwriter”) have entered into a Terms Agreement dated January 22, 2008 (the “Terms Agreement”) with respect to the Notes relating to the Underwriting Agreement—Standard Terms (together with the Terms Agreement, the “Underwriting Agreement”) filed as an exhibit to the registration statement. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Underwriting Agreement, we have agreed to sell to the Underwriter, and the Underwriter has agreed to purchase, the following principal amount of the Notes set out opposite its name below:
| | |
Name of Underwriter | | |
Merrill Lynch International | | MXN 1,200,000,000 |
| | |
Under the terms and conditions of the Underwriting Agreement, if the Underwriter takes any of the Notes, then the Underwriter is obligated to take and pay for all of the Notes.
The Underwriter initially proposes to offer the Notes directly to the public at the offering price described on the cover page. After the initial offering of the Notes, the Underwriter may from time to time vary the offering price and other selling terms.
The Notes are a new class of securities with no established trading market. The Notes are expected to be offered to the public in the United Kingdom pursuant to an exemption under applicable rules of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, as amended (the “FSMA”). An application will be filed to list the Notes on the International Quotation System (Sistema Internacional de Cotizaciones) of the Mexican Stock Exchange and, upon obtaining such listing, the Notes may be purchased by certain institutional investors in Mexico pursuant to the provisions of the Mexican securities market law.
We have agreed to indemnify the Underwriter against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to contribute to payments which the Underwriter may be required to make in respect of any such liabilities.
In connection with this issue, Merrill Lynch International (or any person acting on its behalf) may overallot or effect transactions with a view to supporting the market price of the Notes at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail. However, there is no assurance that Merrill Lynch International (or any person acting on its behalf) will undertake stabilization action. Any stabilization action may begin on or after the date on which adequate public disclosure of the terms of the offer of the Notes is made and, if begun, may be ended at any time, but it must end no later than the earlier of 30 days after the closing date and 60 days after the date of the allotment of the Notes. Any stabilization action or over-allotment shall be conducted in accordance with all applicable laws and rules.
The amount of net proceeds is MXN 1,197,600,000 after deducting underwriting discounts but not estimated expenses. Expenses associated with this offering, to be paid by us, are estimated to be approximately MXN 1,500,000. The Underwriter has agreed to pay certain of our expenses incurred in connection with the offering of the Notes.
In the ordinary course of their respective businesses, the Underwriter and its affiliates have engaged, and may in the future engage, in commercial banking and/or investment banking transactions
S-88
and other related services with us and our affiliates for which the Underwriter and/or its affiliates have received or may receive customary fees and reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses.
Delivery of the Notes
We expect to make delivery of the Notes, against payment on or about January 28, 2008, which we expect will be the fourth business day following the date of this prospectus supplement. Under Rule 15c6-l promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, U.S. purchasers are generally required to settle trades in the secondary market in three business days, unless they and the other parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, if you wish to trade in the Notes on the date of this prospectus supplement, because the Notes will initially settle in T+4, you may be required to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of your trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers in other countries should consult with their own advisors.
Foreign Selling Restrictions
The Underwriter has agreed to the following selling restrictions in connection with the offering with respect to the following jurisdictions:
Korea
The Underwriter has represented and agreed that (i) it has not offered, sold or delivered and will not offer, sell or deliver, directly or indirectly, any Notes in Korea or to, or for the account or benefit of, any resident of Korea, except as permitted by applicable Korean laws and regulations; and (ii) any securities dealer to whom it sells Notes will agree that it will not offer any Notes, directly or indirectly, in Korea or to any resident of Korea, except as permitted by applicable Korean laws and regulations, or to any dealer who does not so represent and agree.
Mexico
The Notes have not been registered in the Mexican National Securities Registry (Registro Nacional de Valores), and therefore they are not the subject of a public offer in Mexico. Intermediation of the Notes in Mexico is subject to the restrictions of the Mexican securities market law. Any investor of Mexican nationality that purchases these Notes will do so under its own responsibility.
United Kingdom
The Underwriter has represented and agreed that (i) it has only communicated or caused to be communicated and will only communicate or cause to be communicated any invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of Section 21 of the FSMA) received by it in connection with the issue or sale of any of the Notes in circumstances in which section 21(1) of the FSMA does not apply to us; and (ii) it has complied, and will comply with, all applicable provisions of the FSMA with respect to anything done by it in relation to the Notes, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom.

| • | | it has not issued or had in its possession for the purposes of issue, and will not issue or have in its possession for the purposes of issue, whether in Hong Kong or elsewhere, any advertisement, invitation or document relating to the Notes, which is directed at, or the contents of which are likely to be accessed or read by, the public of Hong Kong (except if permitted to do so under the securities laws of Hong Kong) other than with respect to Notes which are or are intended to be disposed of only to persons outside Hong Kong or only to “professional investors” as defined in the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Cap. 571) of Hong Kong and any rules made under that Ordinance. |

The Underwriter has represented and agreed that this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus have not been and will not be registered as a prospectus with the Monetary Authority of Singapore under the Securities and Futures Act (Chapter 289 of Singapore) (the “SFA”).

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN
KOREAN GAAP AND U.S. GAAP
The financial statements of corporations in the Republic of Korea are prepared in accordance with the relevant laws and regulations of the Republic of Korea and in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in Korea (“Korean GAAP”), as established by the Korean Securities and Futures Commission (the “FSC”) and, effective 27th July, 2000, the Korea Accounting Standards Board. In many respects the recognition and measurement of transactions under Korean GAAP is similar to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). However, there are differences, some of which are summarized below. Also, the form and content of financial statements presented under Korean GAAP differ from that required by U.S. GAAP.
The summary below does not identify all recognition, measurement, classification, presentation or disclosure differences that would affect the manner in which transactions or events are presented in the financial statements and footnotes. This summary is not an exhaustive list of all differences between Korean and U.S. GAAP. In making an investment decision, investors must rely upon their own examination of us, the terms of the offering and our financial information. Potential investors should consult their own professional advisors for an understanding of the differences between Korean GAAP and U.S. GAAP, and how these differences might affect the financial information herein. Additionally, no attempt has been made to identify all disclosure, presentation or classification differences that would affect the manner in which transactions and events are presented in the financial statements or notes thereto. Further, no attempt has been made to identify future differences between Korean GAAP and U.S. GAAP as a result of prescribed changes in accounting standards. Regulatory bodies that promulgate Korean GAAP and U.S. GAAP have significant ongoing projects that could affect future comparisons such as this one. Finally, no attempt has been made to identify all future differences between Korean GAAP and U.S. GAAP that may affect our financial information as a result of transactions or events that may occur in the future.
Consolidation
Under Korean GAAP, financial statements are prepared on a non-consolidated basis and also on a consolidated basis for entities with subsidiaries or controlled companies. Certain large business groups are required by the Government to prepare combined financial statements. Under U.S. GAAP, the primary financial statements are prepared on a consolidated basis. In limited cases, non-consolidated financial information for the parent company only and combined financial statements may be presented as supplementary information.
Under Korean GAAP, when consolidated financial statements are presented, investments in subsidiaries and substantially controlled entities must be consolidated. Substantial control is deemed to exist when the investor is the largest shareholder owning more than 30% of the investee’s outstanding voting shares. Beginning in 2000, other “substantial control” criteria were added; for example, the ability to appoint more than 50% of the board of directors. Companies with prior year’s total assets of less than (Won)7 billion or newly established companies with initial capital of less than (Won)7 billion need not be consolidated. However, companies excluded from consolidation should be accounted for under the equity method if the change in their net equity is significant. Prior to 2000, subsidiaries whose activities were dissimilar from those of the parent were also excluded from the parent’s consolidated financial statements. Subsidiaries whose activities are dissimilar from those of the parent must now be included in the parent’s consolidated financial statements. U.S. GAAP generally requires consolidation
S-92
of all majority-owned subsidiaries with certain exceptions related to control by other than a majority interest or an inability to exercise operating control over the subsidiary. In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 46 (“FIN 46”), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities—an interpretation of ARB No. 51,” which was replaced by a revision to FIN 46 (“FIN 6R”) in December 2003. FIN 46R has broadened the approach to consolidation and requires companies to make additional considerations when assessing consolidation requirements. See below for discussion of FIN 46R impacts.
In general, the consolidation methods or procedures under Korean GAAP are conceptually similar to U.S. GAAP, however, there may be differences in application.
Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities
Under Korean GAAP there are no comprehensive standards or criteria for the consolidation of special-purpose companies. Special-purpose companies established under the Korea Asset Securitization Act for the purpose of holding certain financial assets and which are limited to passive activities are normally not consolidated in Korean GAAP financial statements if they do not otherwise meet the consolidation criteria under Korean GAAP.
Under U.S. GAAP, such special-purpose companies are generally consolidated if the sponsoring company has a controlling financial interest in the entity or if there is not sufficient third party equity at risk. On 17th January, 2003, FASB issued Interpretation No. 46—“Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,” which was replaced by a revision to FIN 46 (“FIN 46R”) in December 2003 and which addresses consolidation by business enterprises where equity investors do not bear the residual economic risks and rewards. The principle behind the new Interpretation is that if a company absorbs a majority of expected losses and/or receives a majority of expected residual returns in an entity, which is defined in the Interpretation as a variable interest entity, the entity should be included in the consolidated financial statements. Therefore, under U.S. GAAP, it is more likely that Korean special-purpose companies with nominal capital investments would be included in the consolidated financial statements.
Under Korean GAAP there are no comprehensive standards or criteria for the consolidation of variable interest entities. Such entities are normally not consolidated in Korean GAAP financial statements if they do not otherwise meet the consolidation criteria under Korean GAAP.
Business Combinations
Under Korean GAAP, business combinations involving other than commonly controlled entities are accounted for as either a purchase or a pooling of interests, depending on the specific circumstances. In a purchase combination, the difference between the purchase consideration and the fair value of the net assets acquired is accounted for as goodwill or as negative goodwill. Goodwill is amortized over its estimated economic life, not to exceed 20 years. Negative goodwill, which does not exceed the fair value of non-monetary assets acquired, is amortized over the weighted estimated average economic lives of non-monetary assets. Negative goodwill, which exceeds the fair value of non-monetary assets acquired, is credited to operations in the year of purchase. If shares are purchased after control of a subsidiary has been obtained, the difference between the acquisition cost and net assets acquired is credited or charged to capital surplus. Acquisitions are accounted for assuming such transactions occur as of the date of the audited or reviewed financial statements of the acquired company which are closest to the date of acquisition.
S-93
Effective 1st July, 2001, U.S. GAAP no longer permits pooling of interests and there are significant differences in the accounting for intangible assets including goodwill. (For more details relating to intangible assets, see “Intangible Assets.”) Also, companies that must comply with the accounting requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission are required to apply “push down” accounting for acquisitions in which substantially all of the outstanding common shares of the acquiree are acquired.
Securities
Under Korean GAAP, debt and equity securities bought and held for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as marketable securities and other securities are classified as investment securities.
Marketable securities and investment securities are initially carried at cost, using the weighted average or the moving average method. The following paragraphs describe the subsequent accounting for securities by the type of security.
Marketable securities are reported at fair value, and valuation gains or losses are reported in current operations.
Investments in equity securities with readily determinable fair values and investments in available-for-sale debt securities are reported at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a capital adjustment in shareholders’ equity until realized. Declines in the fair value which are anticipated not to be recoverable are recorded as impairment losses in current operations after eliminating any previously recorded capital adjustment for temporary changes. Subsequent recoveries or other future changes in fair value are recorded as a capital adjustment in shareholders’ equity.
Investments in equity securities that do not have readily determinable fair values are reported at cost, except for declines in our proportionate equity of the underlying book value of the investees which are anticipated not to be recoverable, which are recorded as impairment losses in current operations. Subsequent recoveries are also recorded in current operations up to the original cost of the investment.
Investments in debt securities which we have the intent and ability to hold to maturity are carried at cost, adjusted for the amortization or accretion of premiums or discounts. Premiums and discounts on held-to-maturity debt securities are amortized or accreted over the life of the debt securities using the effective interest method. Declines in the fair value of debt securities which are anticipated not to be recoverable are recorded as impairment losses in current operations. Subsequent recoveries are also recorded in current operations up to the amortized cost of the investment.
If our objectives change, a marketable security can be reclassified to investment securities, but only as of a balance sheet date. The difference between the fair value of the security as of the balance sheet date and the book value is recognized as gain or loss on valuation of marketable securities and credited or charged to current operations. Investment securities cannot be reclassified to marketable securities.
Starting from 2003, securities under Korean GAAP are classified into three categories, trading, available-for-sale and held-to-maturity similar to U.S. GAAP. In addition, all trading securities and available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities which will mature or be disposed of within a year are
S-94
reported as short-term investment securities. Other available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities are reported as long-term investment securities. Under revisions to Korean GAAP, available-for-sale equity securities, which do not have readily determinable fair value, are reported at estimated fair value unless the fair value cannot be reliably estimated, in which case they are stated at cost and a recovery gain from impairment is recorded, if certain conditions are met, up to the lesser of amortized cost of the held-to-maturity securities which would have been recorded if an impairment loss had not been recognized and the previously recorded impairment loss for available-for-sale securities.
Under U.S. GAAP, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 115 “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities” requires investments in all debt securities and equity securities with readily determinable fair value to be classified into three categories and accounted for as follows: (1) Debt securities that a company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are reported at amortized cost; (2) Debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings; and (3) Debt and equity securities not classified as either held-to-maturity securities or trading securities are classified as “available-for-sale securities” and reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income, a component of equity. For individual securities classified as either held-to-maturity or available-for-sale, if a decline in fair value below the cost is judged to be other than temporary, the cost basis of the individual securities is written down to fair value and the amount of write-down is included in earnings. An impairment write-down creates a new cost basis which is not changed for subsequent recoveries of fair value.
Under U.S. GAAP, transfers of securities between categories may be done whenever circumstances change, however, transfers into or from the trading category are rare and the sale or transfer of a held-to-maturity security shall be considered to be inconsistent with its original classification, resulting in a taint of our intent to hold other debt securities to maturity, with limited exceptions.
Equity Method for Investments in Affiliates
Under Korean GAAP, use of the equity method for more than 20% (15% for the banking institutions)-owned investments is required, except for companies with assets of less than (Won)7 billion where the effect of its change in net assets on the investor’s financial statements is not material. The excess of our investment account over the corresponding share of stockholders’ equity of an investee is amortized over a period not exceeding 20 years. Under Korean GAAP, an investor generally stops application of the equity method of accounting when the investment balance is reduced to zero due to negative equity of the investee. Unrealized profit or loss from the sales or disposal between the investor and the investee is eliminated to the extent of the investor’s corresponding share.
Under the revisions to Korean GAAP, SKAS No. 15 “The Equity Method of Accounting,” effective from the fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2004, the excess of our investment account over the corresponding share of stockholders’ equity of an investee is amortized as goodwill or negative goodwill. Goodwill is amortized over its estimated economic life, not to exceed 20 years. Negative goodwill, which does not exceed the fair value of non-monetary assets acquired, is amortized over the weighted estimated average economic lives of non-monetary assets. Negative goodwill, which exceeds the fair value of non-monetary assets acquired, is credited to operations in the year of purchase. Even though the investment balance is reduced to zero due to negative equity of the investee, if the investor has preferred stock of, or long-term accounts receivable (including loans receivable but
S-95
excluding trade accounts receivable and collectibles receivable through pleaded assets) from, the investee, additional loss is recognized in current operations. Unrealized profit or loss from the upstream or downstream transactions is eliminated to the extent of the investor’s corresponding proportional interest in the investee. However, if the investee is a consolidated subsidiary, all of the unrealized profit or loss from the downstream transactions is eliminated since the net assets and net income in the non-consolidated financial statements of the investor should generally be equal to those in its consolidated financial statements.
Under U.S. GAAP, an investor applies the equity method of accounting to investments where the investor exercises significant influence over the investee, typically for investments where 20-50% of the equity is owned. The excess of our investment account over the corresponding share of stockholders’ equity of an investee is not amortized under U.S. GAAP effective in 2002. When the investor has loans to and other securities of the investee or a commitment to fund ongoing operations of the investee, the investor is required to record losses in addition to its investment balance. Intercompany profits and losses are eliminated until realized by the investor as if an investee enterprise were consolidated, and accordingly, the elimination of the intercompany profit and losses is allocated proportionately between the investor and investee.
Other than the differences described above, in general, the equity method of accounting under Korean GAAP is conceptually similar to U.S. GAAP, however, there could be certain differences in application.
Derivative Instruments
Under Korean GAAP, all derivative instruments are recorded at fair value of rights and obligations arising from such derivative instruments as assets and liabilities, which are stated at fair value. The gains and losses that result from the change in the fair value of derivative instruments are reported in current earnings. Cash flow hedge accounting is applied to a derivative instrument designated as hedging the exposure to variability in expected future cash flow of an asset or a forecasted transaction that is attributable to a particular risk. The effective portion of gain or loss on a derivative instrument designated as a cash flow hedge is recorded as a capital adjustment and the ineffective portion is recorded in current operations. The effective portion of gain or loss recorded as a capital adjustment is reclassified to current earnings in the same period during which the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. If the hedged transaction results in the acquisition of an asset or the incurrence of a liability, the gain or loss in capital adjustment is added to or deducted from the asset or the liability.
Under SFAS No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended by SFAS No. 149 and SFAS No. 155, we are required to recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value through current operations. If the derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative will either be offset against the changes in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities or firm commitments through earnings, or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of the derivative’s changes in fair value will be immediately recognized in current earnings. Under U.S. GAAP, there are strict requirements to apply hedge accounting and there are detailed rules and case studies for derivative accounting.
S-96
In general, the accounting for derivatives under Korean GAAP is conceptually similar to U.S. GAAP, however, there could be certain significant differences in application.
Accounting for Transfers of Assets
Under Korean GAAP, transfers of assets, which are conducted in accordance with the Korean Asset Securitization Act, are recorded as sales. Gains or losses on sales are determined as the difference between the carrying amount of the assets sold and the net proceeds received, and recognition should be given to the potential cost of the recourse obligation.
Under U.S. GAAP, such transactions result in recording transferred assets as sold only if the transferor has surrendered control over the transferred assets and all the following are met:
| • | | transferred assets have been isolated from the transferor presumptively beyond the reach of the transferor and its creditors, even in bankruptcy or other receivership, |
| • | | each transferee (or, if the transferee is a qualifying special-purpose entity, each holder of its beneficial interests) has the right to pledge or exchange the assets (or beneficial interests) it received, and no condition both constrains the transferee (or holder) from taking advantage of its right to pledge or exchange and provides more than a trivial benefit to the transferor, and |
| • | | the transferor does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through either (1) an agreement that both entitles and obligates the transferor to repurchase or redeem them before their maturity or (2) the ability to unilaterally cause the holder to return specific assets, other than through a cleanup call. |
In addition, there are additional strict requirements that often result in the consolidation of the financial statements of the transferee special-purpose vehicle. Upon completion of a transfer of assets that satisfies the conditions to be accounted for as a sale, the transferor is required to recognize all assets obtained and liabilities incurred in the transaction, including assets or liabilities related to servicing.
Loans and Receivables
Under Korean GAAP, an allowance for bad debts is provided for estimated uncollectible accounts on a reasonable and objective basis, however, financial institutions frequently provide an allowance for bad debts in accordance with the minimum ratios set by Korean regulatory agencies, based on the classification of the relevant assets. Under Korean GAAP, when the interest rate and repayment period are changed unfavorably for the creditor by a court imposition such as commencement of reorganization or by mutual agreement and the difference between the nominal value and the present value is material, the difference is presented as bad debt expense. U.S. GAAP requires that impaired loans, including restructured loans, be measured based on comparison of the recorded loan balance to the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or, as a practical expedient, at the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Under Korean GAAP, property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, except for those assets that are stated at their appraised values in accordance with the Asset Revaluation Law of Korea. In
S-97
connection with the revaluation, a new basis for depreciation is established. The revaluation increment, net of a 3% asset revaluation tax, is first applied to offset any accumulated deficit and the remainder is credited to capital surplus. Asset revaluation is not permitted after 1st January, 2001. Impairment of long-lived assets are required to be charged to expense when incurred similar to U.S. GAAP as described below, except that if the recoverable value of the asset exceeds the adjusted book value of the asset in subsequent years, the recovery of previously recognized losses is recognized as a gain in subsequent periods until the recoverable value equals the book value of the assets which would have been recorded if the loss were not recognized (i.e., after recognition of foregone depreciation).
U.S. GAAP does not permit asset revaluation, unless the recorded amount of an asset is not recoverable, in which case a loss is recognized. U.S. GAAP requires entities to perform separate calculations for long-lived assets to be held and used in order to determine whether recognition of an impairment loss is required and, if so, to measure the impairment. For assets held for use, impairment exists if the sum of expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) expected to result from use and eventual disposition is less than the asset’s carrying value. Measurement of impairment is based on the fair value of the asset. An impairment loss creates a new book basis and subsequent recoveries of the fair value are not recognized. U.S. GAAP also requires long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be disposed of by sale to be reported at the lower of the carrying value or fair value less selling expense.
Under Korean GAAP, companies were not required to record a liability related to the future retirement of property, plant and equipment. Beginning in 2003, when the estimated cost of dismantling and removing an asset and restoring the site, after the termination of the asset’s useful life, meets the criteria for recognition of provisions, the present value of the estimated expenditure shall be included in the acquisition cost of the tangible asset. At the time of acquisition, the present value of the estimated expenditure is accounted for asset and liability, respectively. Such acquisition cost of asset is depreciated over its estimated useful lives and the difference between the present value and notional amounts of liability is amortized using the effective interest rate method over the period from the acquisition to termination of the assets. If such liability is newly imposed due to a change in law or contract, such cost is to be added to the acquisition cost of the tangible asset when the related liability is recorded. However, if such cost is incurred over the useful lives of the assets, it shall be charged to the current operations of the period in which it is incurred. Under U.S. GAAP, beginning in 2003, SFAS No. 143—“Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations” provides accounting and reporting standards for recognizing the cost associated with legal obligations related to the retirement of tangible long-lived assets. The fair value of asset retirement obligations is to be recognized in the period in which they are incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The corresponding amount is capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset and expensed over the asset’s useful life.
Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
Under Korean GAAP, a company records a liability provision for expenses matched with the related income in the current period if the expense is certain and if the amount of the expense is reasonable. If a decrease in net assets is certain and the loss can be reasonably estimated, a contingent loss is recognized in current operations. However, a contingency gain is not recognized in current operations until the contingent conditions are resolved.
S-98
Under the revisions to Korean GAAP (which is similar to U.S. GAAP), SKAS No. 17 “Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets,” effective from fiscal year beginning after December 31, 2004, a company recognizes a provision if, and only if:
| • | | a present obligation (legal or constructive) has arisen as a result of a past event (the obligating event); |
| • | | payment is probable, or more likely than not; and |
| • | | the amount can be estimated reliably. |
Also, the provisions are stated at present value, if the difference between nominal and present value is material.
Intangible Assets
Under Korean GAAP, intangible assets, including goodwill, are amortized over a reasonable period not to exceed 20 years unless the contractual right or legal right exceeds 20 years. Under U.S. GAAP, intangible assets are amortized over the useful life unless that life is indefinite. Intangible assets with indefinite useful life and goodwill are not amortized, however, they are tested for impairment at minimum on an annual basis.
Under Korean GAAP, bond issuance costs are offset against the proceeds of the bond and amortized using the effective interest method over the life of the debt instrument and stock issuance costs are recorded as a reduction of paid-in capital. Under U.S. GAAP, bond issuance costs are reflected as deferred charges in other assets and otherwise accounted for as under Korean GAAP and stock issuance costs are treated as a reduction of the proceeds.
Under Korean GAAP, certain development costs are capitalized only if the costs can be clearly identified and the future economic benefits are probable, and are amortized over the estimated useful lives (not to exceed 20 years) from the year the relevant asset is placed in use. Ordinary research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Organization costs related to establishing a new company can be capitalized. Starting in 2003, such organization costs are expensed as incurred. Under U.S. GAAP, all research and development costs and organization costs are expensed as incurred.
Accounting for Income Taxes
Under Korean GAAP, the income tax provision includes current and deferred income taxes which are provided based on temporary differences between the book and tax bases of assets or liabilities at future expected tax rates and net operating loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred taxes are not recognized for temporary differences related to unrealized gains and losses on investment securities that are reported in a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Deferred tax assets are adjusted based on the likelihood of realizability. Accounting for income taxes under Korean GAAP is similar to that required under U.S. GAAP, however, U.S. GAAP requires that a valuation allowance be recorded if it is “more likely than not” that such deferred tax assets will not be realized and deferred taxes are recognized for unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale investment securities and based on currently enacted tax rates.
Under Korean GAAP, deferred tax assets and liabilities are presented in the balance sheet as a single, net non-current number. Under U.S.GAAP, deferred tax assets and liabilities are separated into
S-99
their current and non-current portions based on the classification of the related asset or liability for financial reporting purposes.
Under the revisions to Korean GAAP, SKAS No. 16 “Accounting for Income Taxes,” effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2004, deferred taxes are recognized for temporary differences related to unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale equity securities that are reported in a separate component of stockholders’ equity (which is similar to U.S. GAAP). Also, deferred tax assets and liabilities are separated into their current and non-current portions based on the classification of the related asset or liability for financial reporting purposes.
Financing Costs
Under previous Korean GAAP effective until 2002, financing costs (including interest and foreign exchange gains/losses) incurred on borrowings to finance the purchase of investment securities, intangible assets, construction of property, plant and equipment and manufacture of inventories on a long-term basis are required to be capitalized. Starting from 2003, such financing costs may be either reflected in current operations or capitalized, however, an accounting method once adopted should be consistently applied and there are certain restrictions for the capitalisable foreign exchange gains/losses.
Under U.S. GAAP, only interest expense is to qualify for capitalisation and no foreign currency translation gain or loss on monetary asset and liabilities qualifies for capitalisation. In addition, qualifying assets for interest capitalisation are more limited than those under Korean GAAP.
Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees
Under Korean GAAP, a guarantor accounts for guarantees issued in accordance with loss contingencies. Also, Korean GAAP does not require extensive disclosures of guarantees.
Under U.S. GAAP, beginning for guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002, a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of certain guarantees, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 45. In addition, there is a disclosure requirement, including the maximum potential amount of future payments the guarantor could be required to make and the carrying value of the liability.
Appropriations of Retained Earnings
Under Korean GAAP, proposed appropriations of retained earnings at year-end, including dividends payable, are required to be reflected in the current year’s balance sheet, although the actual appropriations are approved by stockholders at their regular meeting to be held annually in the following year. Under U.S. GAAP, dividends are recorded as a liability as of the date of declaration by the board of directors. Starting from 2003, the revisions to Korean GAAP require that proposed appropriations of retained earnings at year-end be recorded when approved by stockholders.
Retirement and Severance Benefits
Under the Korean labor law, employees with more than one year of service are entitled to receive a lump sum payment upon voluntary or involuntary termination of their employment. The amount of the benefit is based on the terminated employee’s length of employment and rate of pay prior to
S-100
termination. Korean GAAP requires that a company record the vested benefit obligation at the balance sheet date assuming all employees were to terminate their employment as of that date. The change in the vested benefit obligation during the year is recorded as the current year’s severance expense.
U.S. GAAP requires employee benefits to be recorded in accordance with Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87, “Employers’ Accounting for Pensions,” No. 106, “Employers’ Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions,” No. 112, “Employers’ Accounting for Postemployment Benefits” and No. 132, “Employers’ Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits.” U.S. GAAP generally requires the use of actuarial methods for measuring annual employee benefit costs including the use of assumptions as to the rate of salary progression and discount rate, the amortization of prior service costs over the remaining service period of active employees and the immediate recognition of a liability when the accumulated benefit obligation exceeds the fair value of plan assets. U.S. GAAP also requires employers to recognize the obligation to provide postemployment benefits if the obligation is attributable to employees’ services already rendered, employees’ rights to those benefits accumulate or vest, payment of the benefits is probable, and the amount of the benefits can be reasonably estimated. Also, U.S. GAAP requires certain additional disclosures not required under Korean GAAP.
Under U.S. GAAP, for employee benefit plans with characteristics similar to Korean plans, if the vested benefit obligation is greater than the present value of the projected benefit obligation, a company may record a pension liability equal to the vested benefit obligation at the balance sheet date. Under these circumstances, the periodic pension expense is equal to the change in the vested benefit obligation during the year and there is no significant difference between Korean GAAP and U.S. GAAP.
Revenue Recognition
Under previous Korean GAAP, product revenues are recognized when goods are sold and delivered and service revenues are recognized on the percentage completion method. Under the revisions to Korean GAAP, starting from 2003, sales of goods are recognized as revenue when all of the following conditions have been met:
| • | | significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have been transferred to the buyer; |
| • | | neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold is retained; |
| • | | the amount of revenue, transaction costs and other related costs occurred or to occur can be measured reliably; and |
| • | | it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow into the company. |
Revenue arising from the use of the company’s assets by others that generates interest, royalties and dividends is recognized when the amount of revenue can be measured reliably and it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow into the company. Also, service revenues are recognized on the percentage completion method.
S-101
Under U.S. GAAP, revenue should be recognized when the earnings process is completed or virtually completed and the revenue is realized or realizable. The following criteria are the generally criteria required for product sales revenue recognition:
| • | | pervasive evidence that an arrangement exists; |
| • | | delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; |
| • | | the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and |
| • | | collectibility is reasonably assured. |
There may be differences in application of revenue recognition between Korean GAAP and U.S. GAAP in areas where the two GAAPs are conceptually similar.
Changes in Accounting Policy
Under Korean GAAP, the cumulative effect of certain accounting changes was charged or credited to beginning retained earnings and certain pro forma financial information was required to be disclosed. If information was not available to determine the impact on beginning retained earnings, the change could have been accounted for prospectively. For fiscal years beginning after 31st March, 2001, prior year financial statements are restated and the cumulative effect from retroactive application is adjusted through the opening balance of retained earnings in the earliest year presented. U.S. GAAP requires the recognition of the cumulative effect on prior years of most accounting changes in the year of the change or, in certain limited cases, retroactive restatement.
Prior Period Adjustments
Under Korean GAAP, prior period adjustments were reflected by restating the comparative information, although in practice, such adjustments were sometimes reflected as a charge to beginning retained earnings. Effective for calendar year 2002, with early adoption in 2001 allowed, all adjustments, except for fundamental errors, are reflected as non-operating income or expense in the current year’s financial statements. Fundamental errors will be accounted for by restating the comparative information.
Under U.S. GAAP prior period adjustments are generally limited to material errors in prior period financial statements and are reflected as a restatement of those financial statements.
Comprehensive Income
Under Korean GAAP, there is no requirement to present comprehensive income. Under U.S. GAAP, comprehensive income includes all changes in shareholders’ equity during an accounting period except those resulting from investments by or distributions to owners, including certain items not included in the current results of operations.
Statement of Cash Flows
Under Korean GAAP, cash flows from restricted deposits, key money deposits and intangible assets are reported as investing activities. Under U.S. GAAP, cash flows from cash flows from restricted deposits and key money deposits are reported as operating activities and cash flows from intangible assets are reported as operating or investing activities depending on their nature.
S-102
Additional Disclosures
Compared with Korean GAAP, U.S. GAAP requires additional footnote disclosure for income taxes, employee benefit plans, fair value of financial instruments, pro forma financial information and segments.
Additional Differences
U.S. GAAP provides for special industry practices for several industries which may differ from Korean GAAP. Examples of these industries are oil and gas producers, insurance, financial services, broadcasting, cable television, franchising, real estate, regulated operations and construction contractors. Also, companies registering securities in the United States must prepare financial statements in compliance with the accounting requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
Our management believes that the application of U.S. GAAP to our financial statements would have a material and significant impact upon the financial results and disclosure as reported under Korean GAAP. Potential investors should consult their own professional advisors for an understanding of the differences between Korean GAAP and U.S. GAAP and how those differences might affect the financial information included herein.
Korean Accounting and Disclosures Related to Banking Institutions
Banks in Korea are subject to accounting standards and disclosure requirements that differ in significant respects from those applicable to banks in other countries, including the United States. In particular, our financial statements are prepared in accordance with Korean GAAP and, where applicable, accounting and reporting guidelines prescribed by Korean bank regulatory authorities, which differ in certain material respects from U.S. GAAP as applied to banks. Below is a description of the significant differences between Korean GAAP and U.S. GAAP relating to banking institutions. In addition, there may be less publicly available information about Korean banks, than is regularly made available by financial institutions in other countries.
Allowance for Possible Loan Losses
Under previous Korean GAAP, the allowance for possible loan losses was generally determined based on regulations issued by Korean banking regulatory authorities. The Korean banking regulations with respect to loan classification and provisioning were, in certain material respects, less stringent than those applicable to banks in the United States. At the end of 1999, the FSC has changed its regulations concerning the method of classifying loans and provisioning for loan losses so as to fully reflect a borrower’s capacity to repay and not just solely past performance. We measure allowances for possible loan losses by the discounted cash flow method and loan loss experience ratio on a single loan and certain group of loans, and the percentage of loan loss allowance established by the FSC.
Under U.S. GAAP, the allowance for possible loan losses is determined by management utilizing judgment, historical experience, and an analysis of the specific terms and conditions of individual loans and guarantees. Under U.S. GAAP, the allowance for possible loan losses is required to be established at a level that is deemed adequate to provide for all known and inherent losses that existed at the balance sheet date. Loans are written off when they are deemed improbable of collection.
S-103
Pursuant to SFAS No. 114, as amended, a loan is deemed impaired when it is probable that a creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan. An impaired loan should be valued at the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or, as a practical alternative, at the loan’s observable market value or the fair value of the loan’s collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.
The method to provide allowances for loan losses under Korean GAAP is conceptually similar to one in U.S. GAAP, however, there may be differences in application. In addition, regulatory approval is required for Korean banking institutions to charge off loans, which generally allows loans to be written off in a later period than banking institutions in the United States.
Loan Fees and Origination Costs
Under previous Korean GAAP, all costs incurred in the origination of loans were charged to expense as incurred. Loan commitment, origination and other fees were recognized in income when received.
Under U.S. GAAP, loan origination fees are deferred and recognized over the life of the loan as additional interest income. Direct loan origination costs are deferred and recognized over the life of the loan as a reduction of interest income. Loan commitment fees are deferred and, if the commitment is exercised, recognized over the life of the loan as additional interest. If the loan commitment expires unexercised, the commitment fee is recognized in income.
Starting from 2003, the accounting treatment for loan origination fees and costs under Korean GAAP became similar to those under U.S. GAAP.
Recognition of Interest Income
Korean GAAP requires recognition of interest income on an accrual basis, except for non-secured uncollectible receivables. Interest on loans, whose principal or interest is past due at the balance sheet date, is generally not accrued, with the exception of interest on certain loans secured by guarantee of governments, government agencies and collateral of bank deposits. Previously accrued interest is generally reversed to income when a loan is placed on non-accrual status.
Under U.S. GAAP, interest is generally accounted for on an accrual basis. Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when they are 90 days past due. Previously accrued interest is generally reversed to income when a loan is placed on non-accrual status, unless both principal and interest are ultimately protected by sound collateral values and are in the process of collection. If the ultimate collectibility of a principal is in doubt, any payment received on a loan on which accrual of interest has been suspended is accounted for as a reduction of the principal balance to the extent necessary to eliminate such doubt.
