25. Impairment of non-financial assets

Estimates and judgments

At the end of each reporting period the Group assesses whether there are any indications of impairment of any non-financial non-current assets, right-of-use assets (or cash-generating units).

If any indications occur and annually in the case of intangible assets which are not amortized, as well as intangible assets not yet placed in service and goodwill, the Bank estimates the recoverable amount being the higher of the fair value less costs to sell or the value in use of a non-current asset (or a cash-generating unit), and, if the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the Group recognizes an impairment loss in the income statement. In order to estimate these amounts it is necessary to adopt assumptions concerning, among other things, the projected future cash flows that the Group may obtain from further use or sale of a given non-current asset (or a cash-generating unit). Adopting different assumptions concerning the valuation of future cash flows could affect the carrying amount of certain non-current assets.
