| Auditors report [line items] | |
| Disclosures of auditors report [text block] | We have reviewed the accompanying interim statement of financial position of CHUBB Arabia Cooperative Insurance Company, a Saudi Joint Stock Company (the “Company”) as at 31 March 2019, and the related interim statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the three-month period then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes. |
| Contents of auditors report [abstract] | |
| Nature of auditors opinion | Unmodified opinion |
| Basis of opinion | We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, “Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity”, as endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing as endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion. |
| Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for financial statements | Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these interim condensed financial statements in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, “Interim Financial Reporting” (“IAS 34”) as modified by the Saudi Arabian Monetary Authority (“SAMA”) for the accounting of zakat and income tax. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these interim condensed financial statements based on our review. |
| Auditors responsibilities for audit of financial statements | Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim condensed financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects in accordance with IAS 34 as modified by SAMA for the accounting of zakat and income tax. |

| Disclosure of general information about reporting entity [text block] | We have reviewed the accompanying interim statement of financial position of CHUBB Arabia Cooperative Insurance Company, a Saudi Joint Stock Company (the “Company”) as at 31 March 2019, and the related interim statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the three-month period then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes. Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these interim condensed financial statements in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, “Interim Financial Reporting” (“IAS 34”) as modified by the Saudi Arabian Monetary Authority (“SAMA”) for the accounting of zakat and income tax. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these interim condensed financial statements based on our review. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Disclosure of basis of preparation of financial statements [text block] | These interim condensed financial information for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 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”), zakat and income tax are to be accrued on a quarterly basis through shareholders equity under retained earnings. ii. These interim financial statements is prepared under the going concern basis and the historical cost convention, except for the measurement at fair value of investments in held for trading and investments available for sale. The Company’s interim statement of financial position is presented in order of liquidity and is not presented using a current/non-current classification. Except for property and equipment, right of use asset, intangible assets, statutory deposit, statutory deposit commission payable, end-of-service indemnities and engineering related unearned premiums, unearned reinsurance commission, deferred policy acquisition cost, outstanding claims, claims incurred but not reported and technical reserves, all other assets and liabilities are short-term nature, unless, stated otherwise. iii. As required by the Saudi Arabian Insurance Regulations, the Company maintains separate books of accounts for Insurance Operations and Shareholders’ Operations. Accordingly, assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses clearly attributable to either activity are recorded in the respective accounts. Similarly, in the past, the Company’s interim condensed and annual financial statements presented separately the statement of financial position, statements of income, comprehensive income and cash flows for the insurance operations and shareholders operations. The basis of allocation of expenses from joint operations is determined and approved by the management and the Board of Directors. iv. The interim statement of financial position, interim statements of income, comprehensive income and cash flows of the insurance operations and shareholders operations which are presented on pages 31 to 36 of the financial statements have been provided only 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 statements of financial position, statement of income and statements of comprehensive income 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. vi. The interim condensed financial statements do not include all the information, and disclosures required in the annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual financial statements as at 31 December 2018. The interim condensed financial statements include all adjustments comprising mainly of normal recurring accruals considered necessary by the Company’s management to present a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows. vii. These interim condensed financial statements are expressed in Saudi Arabian Riyals (SR). | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Disclosure of accounting framework used in preparation of financial statements [text block] | The Company has applied, for the first time, IFRS 16 Leases that requires restatement of previous financial statements unless modified retrospective approach is adopted. As required by IAS 34, the nature and effect of these changes are disclosed below. Several other amendments and interpretations apply for the first time in 2019, however do not have an impact on the interim condensed financial statements of the Company. The date of initial application of IFRS 16 for the Company is 1 January 2019. The Company has opted to apply IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective approach. Hence, restatement of the comparative information is not required. IFRS 16 – Leases, applicable for the period beginning on or after 1 January 2019 supersedes IAS 17 Leases, IFRIC 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease, SIC-15 Operating Leases-Incentives and SIC-27 Evaluating the Substance of Transactions Involving the Legal Form of a Lease. The standard sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases and requires lessees to account for all leases under a single on-balance sheet model except for short term leases and leases of low value assets. Impact of the new definition of a lease The Company adopted IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective method of adoption with the date of initial application of 1 January 2019. Under this method, the standard is applied retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognised at the date of initial application. The Company elected to use the transition practical expedient allowing the standard to be applied only to contracts that were previously identified as leases applying IAS 17 and IFRIC 4 at the date of initial application. The Company also elected to use the recognition exemptions for lease contracts that, at the commencement date, have a lease term of 12 months or less and do not contain a purchase option (‘short-term leases’), and lease contracts for which the underlying asset is of low value (‘low-value assets’). The change in definition of a lease mainly relates to the concept of control. IFRS 16 determines whether a contract contains a lease on the basis of whether the customer has the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The effect of adoption IFRS 16 as at 1 January 2019 (increase/(decrease)) is as follows:
The application of IFRS 16 to leases previously classified as operating leases under IAS 17 resulted in the recognition of right-of-use assets and leases liabilities. It resulted in a decrease in other expense and an increase in depreciation and amortisation expense and in interest expense. Nature of the effect of adoption of IFRS 16 The Company has lease contracts mainly for rented properties. Before the adoption of IFRS 16, the Company classified each of its leases (as lessee) at the inception date as either a finance lease or an operating lease. A lease was classified as a finance lease if it transferred substantially all of the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the leased asset to the Company, otherwise it was classified as an operating lease. In an operating lease, the leased property was not capitalised and the lease payments were recognised as rent expense in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Any prepaid rent and accrued rent were recognised under prepayments and accrued and other liabilities, respectively. Upon adoption of IFRS 16, the Company applied a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The standard provides specific transition requirements and practical expedients, which has been applied by the Company. In case of leases previously accounted for as operating leases, the Company recognised right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for those leases previously classified as operating leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The right-of-use assets for most leases were recognised based on the carrying amount as if the standard had always been applied, apart from the use of incremental borrowing rate at the date of initial application. The right-of-use asset was recognised based on the amount equal to the lease liabilities, adjusted for any related prepaid and accrued lease payments previously recognised. Lease liabilities were recognised based on the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the incremental borrowing rate at the date of initial application. Set out below are the new accounting policies of the Company upon adoption of IFRS 16, which have been applied from the date of initial application: Right-of-use assets The Company recognises right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Unless the Company is reasonably certain to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the recognised right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of its estimated useful life and the lease term. Right-of-use assets are subject to impairment. Lease liabilities At the commencement date of the lease, the Company recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Company and payments of penalties for terminating a lease, if the lease term reflects the Company exercising the option to terminate. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as expense in the period on which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs. In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses the incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date if the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the in-substance fixed lease payments or a change in the assessment to purchase the underlying asset. Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets The Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases of rented properties (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases of office equipment that are considered of low value (i.e., below SR 18,750). Lease payments on short term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Significant judgement in determining the lease term of contracts with renewal options The Company determines the lease term as the non-cancellable term of the lease, together with any periods covered by an option to extend the lease if it is reasonably certain to be exercised, or any periods covered by an option to terminate the lease, if it is reasonably certain not to be exercised. Amounts to be recognised in the interim condensed statement of financial position and interim condensed statement of income mainly relate to the carrying amounts of the Company’s right-of-use assets and lease liabilities along with the related movements during the period ended 31 March 2019 are set out below:
The Company has also adopted the following amendments and revisions to existing standards, which were issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB):
The adoption of the relevant new and amended standards and interpretations applicable to the Company did not have any significant impact on these interim condensed financial statements except for the application of IFRS 16 which is detailed above. Standards issued but not yet effective Standards issued but not yet effective up to the date of issuance of the Company’s interim condensed financial statements are listed below. The listing is of standards and interpretations issued, which the Company reasonably expects to be applicable at a future date. The Company intends to adopt these standards when they become effective.
IFRS 17 – Insurance Contracts IFRS 17 - “Insurance Contracts”, applicable for the period beginning on or after 1 January 2022, and will supersede IFRS 4 “Insurance Contracts”. Earlier adoption permitted if both IFRS 15 'Revenue from Contracts with Customers' and IFRS 9 'Financial Instruments' have also been applied. The Company is currently in the process of performing an initial gap assessment and expects a material impact on measurement and disclosure of insurance and reinsurance that will affect both the statement of income and the statement of financial position. The Company has decided not to early adopt this new standard. IFRS 9 - Financial Instrument 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. Upon implementation of the revised standard IFRS 4 ‘Insurance Contracts’, more assets may be classified as at fair value through profit or loss under the fair value option. The Company has chosen to defer the implementation of IFRS 9 until 1 January 2021. Risk Management The Company’s activities expose it to variety of financial risks: market risk (including commission rate risk, currency risk, fair value interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The interim condensed financial statements do not include all financial risk management information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and therefore should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018. There have been no changes in the risk management department or in any risk management policies since the year end. Seasonality Due to the seasonality of the operations, results can vary on a quarterly basis. Use of estimates in the preparation of interim condensed financial statements The preparation of interim condensed 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 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 31 December 2018. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Disclosure of summary of significant accounting policies, general comment [text block] | STATUTORY DEPOSIT The statutory deposit represents 10% of the paid-up share capital, which is maintained in accordance with the Law on Supervision of Cooperative Insurance Companies in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. SAMA is entitled to the earnings of this statutory deposit and it cannot be withdrawn without its consent. In accordance with the instruction received from the Saudi Arabian Monetary Agency (SAMA) vide their circular dated March 1, 2016, the Company has disclosed the commission due on statutory deposit as at March 31, 2019 as an asset and a liability in these interim condensed financial statements. SHARE CAPITAL The authorised, issued and paid-up share capital is SR 200 million at March 31, 2019 consisting of 20 million shares (December 31, 2018: SR 200 million consisting of 20 million shares) of SR 10 each. CONTINGENCIES Legal proceedings The Company operates in the insurance industry and is subject to legal proceedings in the normal course of business relating to policyholders insurance claims. While it is not practicable to forecast or determine the final results of all pending or threatened legal proceedings, management does not believe that such proceedings (including litigations) will have a material impact on the Company’s results or financial position. ZAKAT AND INCOME TAX a) Zakat
The zakat charge relating to Saudi shareholders’ and principal elements of zakat base are as following:
The difference between the financial results and adjusted profit is mainly due to adjustments for certain costs based on relevant regulations. b) Income tax Charge for the period
Income tax has been provided for based on the estimated taxable profit at the rate of 20% per annum. The differences between the financial results and taxable income are mainly due to adjustments for certain costs/claims based on the relevant fiscal regulations. c) Movement in the provision for zakat and income tax during the period/year The movement in zakat and income tax provision is as follows:
The following is the shareholding percentage in the interim condensed financial statements as at the end of the period/year:
d) Zakat and income tax assessments In 2015, the General Authority of Zakat and Tax (“the GAZT”) raised final assessments for the years ended December 31, 2009 to 2012 and assessed additional income tax, zakat and withholding tax liability amounting to SR 13.79 million and delay fines of SR 4.4 million. The management has filed an appeal against these assessments. However, the Company has paid SR 14.9 million for income tax, withholding tax and delay fines and also furnished a bank guarantee of SR 3.3 million in favor of GAZT for zakat liability for above mentioned years. The Company has also received assessments for the years 2013 to 2015 where the GAZT had requested for an additional zakat and income tax liability and delay fine of SR 6.2 million. The management has filed an appeal against the assessment and submitted a bank guarantee amounting to SR 6.2 million to cover the additional income tax, zakat and delay fine liability. Zakat and income tax assessments have not been raised by the GAZT for the years 2016 or 2017. Zakat and income tax has been computed based on the Company's understanding and interpretation of the zakat and income tax regulations enforced in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The GAZT continues to issue circulars to clarify certain zakat and tax regulations which are usually enforced on all open years. The zakat regulations in Saudi Arabia are subject to different interpretations and new zakat regulations have been issued by the GAZT dated 1 Jumada II 1438H (corresponding to 28 February 2017). The zakat and income tax liability as computed by the Company could be different from zakat and tax liability as assessed by the GAZT for years for which assessments have not yet been raised by the GAZT. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
