Commissions from bank activity

Revenue from commissions and fees is generally recognized at the time of the service.

Interest

Income from interest is recognized on the accrual basis, based on the effective interest rates and it is recognized in the statement of profit or loss under “Net investment income”.

Dividends

Dividends are recognized as revenue when the right to the dividend is acquired and they are recognized under “Net investment income”.
