| Disclosure of basis of preparation of financial statements [text block] | 1. BASIS OF PREPARATION (a) Basis of presentation The interim condensed financial information of the Company has been prepared in accordance with ‘International Accounting Standard 34 - Interim Financial Reporting ("IAS 34") as modified by SAMA for the accounting of Zakat and income tax’, which requires, adoption of all IFRSs as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) except for the application of International Accounting Standard (IAS) 12 - “Income Taxes” and IFRIC 21 - “Levies” so far as these relate to Zakat and income tax. As per the SAMA Circular no. 381000074519 dated April 11, 2017 and subsequent amendments through certain clarifications relating to the accounting for zakat and income tax (“SAMA Circular”), the Zakat and income tax are to be accrued on a quarterly basis through shareholders equity under retained earnings. The interim condensed financial information is prepared under the going concern basis and the historical cost convention, except for the measurement at fair value of available-for-sale investments and end-of-service indemnities. The Company’s interim condensed statement of financial position is not presented using a current/non-current classification. However, the following balances would generally be classified as current: cash and cash equivalents, short term deposits, premiums and reinsurers’ receivable - net, Premiums receivable-related parties, net, deferred excess of loss premiums, prepaid expenses and other assets, due from related parties, net, accrued income on statutory deposit, policyholders claims payable, accrued and other liabilities, reinsurers' balances payable, zakat and income tax. The following balances would generally be classified as non-current: investments, long term deposits, property and equipment, intangible assets, statutory deposit, reinsurers’ share of unearned premiums, reinsurers’ share of outstanding claims, reinsurers’ share of claims incurred but not reported, deferred policy acquisition costs, unearned premiums, unearned reinsurance commission, outstanding claims, claims incurred but not reported, additional premium reserves, other technical reserves, due to a related party, end-of-service indemnities, accrued commission income payable to SAMA. 2. BASIS OF PREPARATION (continued) (a) Basis of presentation (continued) As required by the Saudi Arabian Insurance Regulations, the Company maintains separate books of accounts for Insurance Operations and Shareholders’ Operations and presents the financial information accordingly. Assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses clearly attributable to either activity are recorded in the respective accounts. The basis of allocation of expenses from joint operations is determined and approved by the management and the Board of Directors, (refer Note 17). The interim condensed statements of financial position, income, comprehensive income and cash flows of the insurance operations and shareholders operations are presented on pages 28 to 37 of the interim condensed financial information have been provided as supplementary financial information and to comply with the requirements of the guidelines issued by SAMA implementing regulations. SAMA implementing regulations requires the clear segregation of the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of the insurance operations and the shareholders operations. Accordingly, the interim condensed statements of financial position, income, comprehensive income and cash flows prepared for the insurance operations and shareholders operations as referred to above, reflect only the assets, liabilities, income, expenses and comprehensive gains or losses of the respective operations. In preparing these Company-level financial information in compliance with IFRS, the balances and transactions of the insurance operations are amalgamated and combined with those of the shareholders’ operations. Interoperation balances, transactions and unrealised gains or losses, if any, are eliminated in full during amalgamation. The accounting policies adopted for the insurance operations and shareholders operations are uniform for like transactions and events in similar circumstances. The inclusion of separate information of the insurance operations with the financial information of the Company in the interim condensed statement of financial position, the statement of income, statement of comprehensive income, cash flows as well as certain relevant notes to the financial information represents additional supplementary information required as required by the implementing regulations. The interim condensed financial information do not include all of the information required for full annual financial information and should be read in conjunction with the annual financial information as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017. These interim condensed financial information are expressed in Saudi Arabian Riyals (SAR). (b) Critical accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions The preparation of interim financial information requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In preparing these interim condensed financial information, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty including the risk management policies were the same as those that applied to the annual financial information as at and for the year ended December 31, 2017. (c) Seasonality of operations There are no seasonal changes that may affect insurance operations of the Company. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Disclosure of summary of significant accounting policies, general comment [text block] | 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accounting policies, estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of this interim condensed financial information are consistent with those used in the preparation of the annual financial information for the year ended December 31, 2017 except as explained below: 3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) a) New International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Financial Reporting and Interpretations Committee’s interpretations (IFRIC) and amendments thereof, adopted by the Company The application of these new standards has no material impact on the Company’s interim condensed financial information. IFRS 15 – “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” applicable from 1 January 2018 presents a five-step model to determine when to recognize revenue, and at what amount. The application of this standard could have a significant impact on how and when revenue is recognized (except for contracts that are within the scope of the Standards on lease insurance contracts and financial instruments), with new estimates and judgments, and the possibility of revenue recognition being accelerated or deferred. Classification and Measurement of Share-based Payment Transactions (Amendments to IFRS 2) effective for annual period on or after January 1, 2018. Transfers of Investment Property (Amendments to IAS 40) effective for annual period on or after January 1, 2018. Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2014–2016 Cycle – various standards (Amendments to IFRS 1 and IAS 28) effective for annual period on or after January 1, 2018. IFRIC 22 Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration effective for annual period on or after January 1, 2018. b) Standards, interpretations and amendments to published standards that will be effective for the periods commencing after January 1, 2019 and have not been early adopted by the Company The standards and interpretations that are issued, but not yet effective, up to the date of issuance of the Company’s interim condensed financial information are disclosed below. The Company intends to adopt these standards, if applicable, when they become effective. The Company’s management decided not to choose the early adoption of the following new and amended standards and interpretations issued which will become effective for the period commencing after January 1, 2019; The implementation of IFRS 9 is expected to result in a significant portion of financial assets currently classified as available-for-sale being re-classified as at fair value through profit or loss or fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI). Credit allowances for financial assets carried at amortized cost and debt securities measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in OCI, are expected to increase due to the introduction of the expected credit loss methodology. The Company will avail of the exemptions available to insurers and is considering deferring the implementation of IFRS 9 until a later date, but no later than January 1, 2021. The impact of the adoption of IFRS 9 on the Company’s financial information will, to a large extent, have to take into account the interaction with the forthcoming insurance contracts standard. At the date of publication of these financial information, it was not practicable to quantify what the potential impact would be on the financial statements once IFRS 9 will be adopted. IFRS 16 – “Leases”, applicable for the period beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The new standard eliminates the current dual accounting model for lessees under IAS 17, which distinguishes between on-balance sheet finance leases and off-balance sheet operating leases. Instead, IFRS 16 proposes on-balance sheet accounting model. The management believes that the adoption of IFRS 16 will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial information. IFRS 17 ‘Insurance contracts’ was published on May 18, 2017 with the effective date of 1 January 2021. IFRS 17 provides comprehensive guidance on accounting for insurance contracts and investment contracts with discretionary participation features. For non-life and short-term life insurance contracts IFRS 17 introduces mandatory discounting of loss reserves as well as a risk adjustment for non-financial risk, for which confidence level equivalent disclosure will be required. Further, IFRS 17 will change the presentation of insurance contract revenue, as gross premium written will no longer be presented in profit or loss. At the date of publication of this financial information, it was not practicable to quantify what the potential impact would be on the financial information once IFRS 17 will be adopted. 3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) b) Standards, interpretations and amendments to published standards that will be effective for the periods commencing after January 1, 2019 and have not been early adopted by the Company (continued) IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments effective for annual period on or after January 1, 2019. Long-term Interests in Associates and Joint Ventures (Amendments to IAS 28) effective for annual period on or after January 1, 2019. Plan Amendments, Curtailment or Settlement (Amendments to IAS 19) effective for annual period on or after January 1, 2019. Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2015–2017 Cycle (Amendments to IFRS 3, IFRS 11, IAS 12 and IAS 23) effective for annual period on or after January 1, 2019. Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture (Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28) available for early adoption /effective date deferred indefinitely. 2. ASSETS AND LIABILITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT AND COMMENCEMENT OF ACTIVITIES The Company started its insurance operations on December 29, 2008. The Company’s shareholders approved on December 21, 2008 for the Company to enter into an agreement whereby it acquired the insurance portfolio and net assets of Gulf Union Insurance and Risk Management Company E.C. (“GUIRMC”), a related party, with effect from December 29, 2008 for a consideration of Saudi Riyals 65.7 million based on SAMA’s instructions. Under the initial instructions received from SAMA, the excess of the purchase consideration over the identifiable net assets acquired, which amounted to Saudi Riyals 47.1 million, was recorded as goodwill with a corresponding liability of the same amount. Any adjustment to such goodwill and settlement of related liability can only be made upon the receipt of final approval from SAMA. During December 2015, the Company received a letter from SAMA (the “Letter”), providing clarification on the payments to be made by the Company to GUIRMC, against the insurance portfolio and net assets transferred from GUIRMC to the Company. SAMA reduced the Company’s liability, initially recorded against the goodwill of Saudi Riyals 47.1 million, to 50% of the net profits made by the Company during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2010, amounting to Saudi Riyals 8.46 million. Accordingly, the Company reversed the remaining liability of Saudi Riyals 38.6 million against the initially recorded amount of goodwill. This resulted in a goodwill balance of Saudi Riyals 8.46 million, which was considered impaired by the Company at December 31, 2015 and has been charged to the statement of comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2015. Further, the Company had initially recorded a liability of Saudi Riyals 18.64 million, against the net assets transferred from GUIRMC in 2008. SAMA instructed the Company to reduce the said liability to Saudi Riyals 8.21 million, as certain of the assets transferred were not collected by the Company till December 31, 2015. Accordingly, the Company has adjusted the balance due to GUIRMC. SAMA has instructed the Company that the payments with respect to the goodwill amounting to Saudi Riyals 8.46 million and the balance due to GUIRMC against transfer of the net assets amounting to Saudi Riyals 8.21 million (Saudi Riyals 16.67 million in total) should only be made upon fulfilment of the following conditions: The Company has completed the rights-issue, as explained in Note 1, and the cash raised is held by the Company; All balances due from Gulf Union Insurance and Projects Management Holding Company B.S.C. (c.) (GUIPMC ) have been received by the Company in full and in cash. Also see Note 12(b) (ii); and The Company has obtained specific no objection from SAMA for the aforementioned payments to be made. Further, the Company also made certain adjustments, as of December 31, 2015, to the amounts receivable from GUIPMC based on SAMA's instructions which resulted in an increase in the balance from Saudi Riyals 22.29 million to Saudi Riyals 31.43 million. The net balance of Saudi Riyal 14.47 million (receivable of Saudi Riyals 31.43 million and payable of Saudi Riyals 16.67 million) is presented in supplementary information in note 17 under insurance operations’ assets. Also see Note 12 (b) (ii). | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
