| Disclosure of general information about reporting entity [text block] | Wataniya Insurance Company (the “Company”) is a Saudi Joint Stock Company incorporated in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia under Commercial Registration No. 4030200981 dated 1 Jumada II 1431H (corresponding to May 15, 2010) and Industry’s Resolution number 158/K dated Jumad-ul-Awal 12, 1431H (corresponding to April 26, 2010). The Registered Office address of the Company is Juffali Building, Madina Road, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.The Company is licensed to conduct insurance business in Saudi Arabia under Cooperative insurance principles in accordance with Royal Decree No M/53 dated 21 Shawwal 1430H (corresponding to October 10, 2009) pursuant to Council of Ministers’ Resolution No. 330 dated Shawwal 16,1430H (corresponding to October 5, 2009). The Company was listed on the Saudi Arabian stock market (Tadawul) on September 6, 2010.

| Disclosure of basis of preparation of financial statements [text block] | (a)Statement of compliance The interim condensed financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with ‘International Accounting Standard 34 - Interim Financial Reporting ("IAS 34") as endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and other standards and pronouncement issued by Saudi Organization for Certified Public Accountants (“SOCPA”). The financial statements of the Company as at and for the three-months period ended March 31, 2019 were prepared in compliance with IAS 34 as modified by Saudi Arabian Monetary Authority ("SAMA") for the accounting of zakat and income tax’ (relating to application of IAS 12 - “Income Taxes” and IFRIC 21 - “Levies” so far as these relate to zakat and income tax). Beginning, period ended June 30, 2019, the Company updated its accounting policy to account for zakat and income taxes in the statement of income based on the instructions issued by SAMA in July 2019. This aligns with requirements of the IFRS that are endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and other pronouncements and standards endorsed by SOCPA. Accordingly, the Company changed its accounting treatment for zakat and income tax by retrospectively adjusting the impact in line with International Accounting Standard 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors. Accordingly, the comparative for March 31, 2019 have been restated. The interim condensed financial statements are prepared under the going concern basis and the historical cost convention, except for the measurement of investments at their fair value. The Company’s interim statement of financial position is presented in order of liquidity. Except for property and equipment, statutory deposit, end-of-service indemnities and warranty 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 of short-term nature, unless, stated otherwise.As required by the Saudi Arabian Insurance Regulations (the Implementation Regulations), the Company maintains separate books of accounts for “Insurance Operations” and “Shareholders’ Operations”. Accordingly, assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses clearly attributable to either operation, are recorded in the respective accounts. The interim condensed financial statements may not be considered indicative of the expected results for the full year.These interim condensed financial statements are expressed in Saudi Arabian Riyals (SAR) and are rounded off to the nearest thousands. The interim condensed financial information does not include all of the information required for full annual financial information and should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statement as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019.(b) Critical accounting judgments, estimates and assumptionsThe preparation of interim condensed financial statements 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, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organisation (“WHO”) declared the Coronavirus (“COVID-19”) outbreak as a pandemic in recognition of its rapid spread across the globe. This outbreak has also affected the GCC region including the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Governments all over the world took steps to contain the spread of the virus. Saudi Arabia in particular has implemented closure of borders, released social distancing guidelines and enforced country wide lockdowns and curfews. This necessitated the Company’s management to revisit its significant judgments in applying the Company's accounting policies and the methods of computation and the key sources of estimation applied to the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019. Whilst it is challenging now, to predict the full extent and duration of its business and economic impact, the Company’s management carried out an preliminary assessment on the overall Company’s operations and business aspects including factors like dealing with customers and service providers, claims processing, collections protocol, travel restrictions, oil prices, etc., concluded that, as of the issuance date of these interim condensed financial statements, no significant changes are required to the judgements and key estimates. However, in view of the current uncertainty, any future change in the assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that could require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected in the future periods. As the situation is rapidly evolving and the future remains uncertain, the management will continue to assess the impact based on prospective developments.(c) Seasonality of operations There are no seasonal changes that may affect insurance of the Company. | 2 |
| Disclosure of new standards and amendments in standards [text block] | The accounting policies used in the preparation of these interim condensed financial statements are consistent with those used in the preparation of the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 except as explained below:New IFRS, International Financial Reporting and Interpretations Committee’s interpretations (IFRIC) and amendments thereof, adopted by the CompanyThe following new standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions to existing standards, which were issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) have been effective from January 1, 2020, as applicable:Amendments to IAS 39 and IFRS 7: Interest Rate Benchmark ReformThe amendments to and IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement provide a number of reliefs, which apply to all hedging relationships that are directly affected by interest rate benchmark reform. A hedging relationship is affected if the reform gives rise to uncertainties about the timing and or amount of benchmark-based cash flows of the hedged item or the hedging instrument. These amendments had no impact on the interim condensed financial statements of the Company as it does not have any interest rate hedge relationships.Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8: Definition of MaterialThe amendments provide a new definition of material that states “information is material if omitting, misstating or obscuring it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of general purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements, which provide financial information about a specific reporting entity.” The amendments clarify that materiality will depend on the nature or magnitude of information, either individually or in combination with other information, in the context of the financial statements. A misstatement of information is material if it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions made by the primary users. These amendments had no impact on the interim condensed financial statements of, nor is there expected to be any future impact to the Company.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.New IFRS, International Financial Reporting and Interpretations Committee’s interpretations (IFRIC) and amendments thereof, adopted by the Company (continued)Amendments to IFRS 3: Definition of a businessThe amendment to IFRS 3 clarifies that to be considered a business, an integrated set of activities and assets must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create output. Furthermore, it clarified that a business can exist without including all of the inputs and processes needed to create outputs. These amendments had no impact on the interim condensed financial statements of the Company but may impact future periods should the Company enter into any business combinations.Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting issued on March 29, 2018The Conceptual Framework is not a standard, and none of the concepts contained therein override the concepts or requirements in any standard. The purpose of the Conceptual Framework is to assist the IASB in developing standards, to help preparers develop consistent accounting policies where there is no applicable standard in place and to assist all parties to understand and interpret the standards. The revised Conceptual Framework includes some new concepts, provides updated definitions and recognition criteria for assets and liabilities and clarifies some important concepts. These amendments had no impact on the interim condensed financial statements of the Company.Zakat and income taxAs mentioned under note 2, the basis of preparation of the financial statements was changed period beginning June 30, 2019, as a result of the issuance of instructions from SAMA dated 17 July 2019. Previously, zakat and income tax were recognized in the statement of changes in equity as per the SAMA circular no 381000074519 dated April 11, 2017 (the ‘Old instructions’). With the latest instructions issued by SAMA dated 17 July 2019, the zakat and income tax is recognized in the statement of income. This change was already reflected in the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2019. However, since the change was made beginning period ended June 30, 2019, the interim financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2019, were already issued and prepared using Old instructions. Accordingly, for the purposes of the interim condensed financial statements of the Company for the period ended March 31, 2020, the comparatives for March 31, 2019, have been restated to give effect to the latest instructions. The Company has accounted for this change in the accounting for zakat and income tax retrospectively (see note 3) and the effects of the above change are disclosed in note 3 to the interim condensed financial statements. The change has resulted in reduction of reported income of the Company for the period ended March 31, 2019 by SR 2.2 million. The change has had no impact on the statements of changes shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the period ended March 31, 2019.As at and for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019:AccountPrimary statement impactedAs previously reported as at and for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019Effect ofrestatementAs restated as at and for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019Zakat and income taxInterim statement of income-(1,482)(1,482)Income tax chargeInterim statement of income-(742)(742)Net income for the periodInterim statement of income; and Interim statement of comprehensive income7,137(2,224)4,913Earnings per share for the period (expressed in SR per share)Interim statement of income0.36(0.11)0.25Zakat Interim statement of changes in shareholders’ equity(1,482)1,482-Income tax chargeInterim statement of changes in shareholders’ equity(742)742-Total comprehensive income for the periodInterim statement of comprehensive income; and Interim statement of changes in shareholders’ equity 6,966(2,224)4,742The financial impact of adoption of accounting policy for deferred tax is not material to the interim condensed financial statements, therefore prior period amounts for such impact have not been restated. As required under IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, the balances as of January 1, 2019 were not presented in the statement of financial position as change in the accounting policy has not resulted in restatement of the amounts relating to year ended December 31, 2018.Standards issued but not yet effectiveStandards and interpretation 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 are effectiveStandard/InterpretationDescriptionEffective from periods beginning on or after the following dateIFRS 17Insurance Contracts See note belowIFRS 9Financial InstrumentsSee note belowIFRS 9 – Financial InstrumentsThis standard was published on July 24, 2014 and has replaced IAS 39. The new standard addresses the following items related to financial instruments:a) Classification and measurementIFRS 9 uses a single approach to determine whether a financial asset is measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income or fair value through profit or loss. A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if both:i. the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; andii. the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding (“SPPI”).The financial asset is measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and realized gains or losses would be recycled through profit or loss upon sale, if both conditions are met:i. the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and for sale; andii. the contractual terms of cash flows are SPPI.Assets not meeting either of these categories are measured at fair value through profit or loss. Additionally, at initial recognition, an entity can use the option to designate a financial asset at fair value through profit or loss if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch.For equity instruments that are not held for trading, an entity can also make an irrevocable election to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value of the instruments (including realized gains and losses on disposal), dividends being recognized in statement of income.Additionally, for financial liabilities that are designated as at fair value through profit or loss, the amount of change in the fair value of the financial liability that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability is recognized in other comprehensive income, unless the recognition of the effects of changes in the liability’s credit risk in other comprehensive income would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in statement of income.b) ImpairmentThe impairment model under IFRS 9 reflects expected credit losses, as opposed to incurred credit losses under IAS 39. Under the IFRS 9 approach, it is no longer necessary for a credit event to have occurred before credit losses are recognized. Instead, an entity always accounts for expected credit losses and changes in those expected credit losses. The amount of expected credit losses is updated at each reporting date to reflect changes in credit risk since initial recognition.c) Hedge accountingIFRS 9 introduces new requirements for hedge accounting that align hedge accounting more closely with Risk Management. The requirements establish a more principles-based approach to the general hedge accounting model. The amendments apply to all hedge accounting with the exception of portfolio fair value hedges of interest rate risk (commonly referred to as “fair value macro hedges”). For these, an entity may continue to apply the hedge accounting requirements currently in IAS 39. This exception was granted largely because the IASB is addressing macro hedge accounting as a separate project.Effective dateThe published effective date of IFRS 9 was January 1, 2018. However, amendments to IFRS 4 – Insurance Contracts: Applying IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments with IFRS 4 – Insurance Contracts, published on September 12, 2016, changes the existing IFRS 4 to allow entities issuing insurance contracts within the scope of IFRS 4 to mitigate certain effects of applying IFRS 9 before the IASB’s new insurance contract standard (IFRS 17 – Insurance Contracts) becomes effective. The amendments introduce two alternative options:1.Apply a temporary exemption from implementing IFRS 9 until the earlier of:a)the effective date of a new insurance contract standard; orb)annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2021. The IASB is proposing to extend the effective date of IFRS 17 and the IFRS 9 temporary exemption in IFRS 4 to January 1, 2022. Additional disclosures related to financial assets are required during the deferral period. This option is only available to entities whose activities are predominately connected with insurance and have not applied IFRS 9 previously; or2.Adopt IFRS 9 but, for designated financial assets, remove from profit or loss the effects of some of the accounting mismatches that may occur before the new insurance contract standard is implemented. During the interim period, additional disclosures are required.The Company has performed a detailed assessment beginning January 1, 2018: (1) The carrying amount of the Company’s liabilities arising from contracts within the scope of IFRS 4 (including deposit components or embedded derivatives unbundled from insurance contracts) were compared to the total carrying amount of all its liabilities; and (2) the total carrying amount of the Company’s liabilities connected with insurance were compared to the total carrying amount of all its liabilities. Based on these assessments the Company determined that it is eligible for the temporary exemption. Consequently, the Company has decided to defer the implementation of IFRS 9 until the effective date of the new insurance contracts standard. Disclosures related to financial assets required during the deferral period are included in the Company’s financial statements.Impact assessmentOverall, the Company expects some impact of applying the impairment requirements of IFRS 9 on the financial statements of the Company. However, the impact of the same is not expected to be significant. At present it is not possible to provide reasonable estimate of the effects of application of this new standard as the Company is yet to perform a detailed review. WATANIYA INSURANCE COMPANY (A Saudi Joint Stock Company)Notes to the Interim Condensed Financial Statements (continued)March 31, 2020(All amounts in Saudi Riyals thousands unless otherwise stated)3 Significant accounting policies (continued)Standards issued but not yet effective (continued) IFRS 17 – Insurance ContractsOverviewThis standard has been published on May 18, 2017, it establishes the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of insurance contracts and supersedes IFRS 4 – Insurance contracts.The new standard applies to insurance contracts issued, to all reinsurance contracts and to investment contracts with discretionary participating features provided the entity also issues insurance contracts. It requires to separate the following components from insurance contracts:i.embedded derivatives, if they meet certain specified criteria;ii.distinct investment components; andiii.any promise to transfer distinct goods or non-insurance services.These components should be accounted for separately in accordance with the related standards (IFRS 9 and IFRS 15). MeasurementIn contrast to the requirements in IFRS 4, which permitted insurers to continue to use the accounting policies for measurement purposes that existed prior to January 2015, IFRS 17 provides the following different measurement models:1)The General Measurement Model (GMM) is based on the following “building blocks”:a)the fulfilment cash flows (FCF), which comprises:probability-weighted estimates of future cash flows;an adjustment to reflect the time value of money (i.e. discounting) and the financial risks associated with those future cash flows;and a risk adjustment for non-financial risk.b)the Contractual Service Margin (CSM). The CSM represents the unearned profit for a group of insurance contracts and will be recognized as the entity provides services in the future. The CSM cannot be negative at inception; any net negative amount of the fulfilment cash flows at inception will be recorded in profit or loss immediately.At the end of each subsequent reporting period the carrying amount of a group of insurance contracts is remeasured to be the sum of:the liability for remaining coverage, which comprises the FCF related to future services and the CSM of the group at that date;and the liability for incurred claims, which is measured as the FCF related to past services allocated to the group at that date.The CSM is adjusted subsequently for changes in cash flows related to future services but the CSM cannot be negative, so changes in future cash flows that are greater than the remaining CSM are recognized in profit or loss. Interest is also accreted on the CSM at rates locked in at initial recognition of a contract (i.e. discount rate used at inception to determine the present value of the estimated cash flows). Moreover, the CSM will be released into profit or loss based on coverage units, reflecting the quantity of the benefits provided and the expected coverage duration of the remaining contracts in the group WATANIYA INSURANCE COMPANY (A Saudi Joint Stock Company)Notes to the Interim Condensed Financial Statements (continued)March 31, 2020(All amounts in Saudi Riyals thousands unless otherwise stated)3 Significant accounting policies (continued)Standards issued but not yet effective (continued) IFRS 17 – Insurance Contracts (continued)2)The Variable Fee Approach (VFA):VFA is a mandatory model for measuring contracts with direct participation features (also referred to as ‘direct participating contracts’). This assessment of whether the contract meets these criteria is made at inception of the contract and not reassessed subsequently. For these contracts, the CSM is also adjusted for in addition to adjustment under general model:i.changes in the entity’s share of the fair value of underlying items;ii.changes in the effect of the time value of money and financial risks not relating to the underlying items.In addition, a simplified Premium Allocation Approach (PAA) is permitted for the measurement of the liability for the remaining coverage if it provides a measurement that is not materially different from the general model or if the coverage period for each contract in the group is one year or less. With the PAA, the liability for remaining coverage corresponds to premiums received at initial recognition less insurance acquisition cash flows. The general model remains applicable for the measurement of incurred claims. However, the entity is not required to adjust future cash flows for the time value of money and the effect of financial risk if those cash flows are expected to be paid/received in one year or less from the date the claims are incurred.Effective dateThe IASB issued an Exposure Draft Amendments to IFRS 17 during June 2019 and received comments from various stakeholders. The IASB is currently re-deliberating issues raised by stakeholders. For any proposed amendments to IFRS 17, the IASB will follow its normal due process for standard-setting. The effective date of IFRS 17 and the deferral of the IFRS 9 temporary exemption in IFRS 4, is currently January 1, 2021. Under the current exposure draft, it is proposed to amend the IFRS 17 effective date to reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. This is a deferral of 2 years compared to the previous date of January 1, 2021. Earlier application is permitted if both IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers and IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments have also been applied. The Company intend to apply the standard on its effective date.TransitionRetrospective application is required. However, if full retrospective application for a group of insurance contracts is impracticable, then the entity is required to choose either a modified retrospective approach or a fair value approach.Presentation and DisclosuresThe Company expects that the new standard will result in a change to the accounting policies for insurance contracts together with amendments to presentation and disclosures. Impact assessmentThe Company is currently assessing the impact of the application and implementation of IFRS 17. As of the date of the publication of these interim condensed financial statements, the financial impact of adopting the standard is yet to be fully assessed by the Company. The Company has undertaken a Gap Analysis and the key Gaps are as follows: Impact areaSummary of impactFinancial impactNot yet fully assessed by the Company.Data impactThe Company believes that the data impact is not likely to be significant as a major proportion of the Company’s business would qualify for measurement under the premium allocation approach.IT systemsWith respect to IT-systems, the Company has short listed a vendor to provide the necessary technical support to ensure an effective implementation of IFRS 17. The current accounting chart of accounts is under review for amendments to comply with IFRS 17 requirements. In addition, new disclosures will need to be developed.Process impactThe process impact is under evaluation, but no significant process changes are anticipated. However, should the Company shift its focus to majority long term business, the process impact would be significant.Impact on reinsurance arrangementsThe Company’s reinsurance arrangements under the proportional treaties currently are under testing to determine the suitable measurement approach.Impact on policies & control’s frameworksThe has hired an external consultant to modify their current policies control framework, to be more compliant towards the requirements of IFRS 17.Human resources The Company intends to recruit suitably qualified personnel who have a comprehensive understanding of the IFRS 17. The Company also intends to provide adequate training to existing staff.The Company has started with their implementation process and have set up a proper team, supervised by a steering committee. | 3 |

This option is only available to entities whose activities are predominately connected with insurance and have not applied IFRS 9 previously; or2.Adopt IFRS 9 but, for designated financial assets, remove from profit or loss the effects of some of the accounting mismatches that may occur before the new insurance contract standard is implemented. During the interim period, additional disclosures are required.The Company has performed a detailed assessment beginning January 1, 2018: (1) The carrying amount of the Company’s liabilities arising from contracts within the scope of IFRS 4 (including deposit components or embedded derivatives unbundled from insurance contracts) were compared to the total carrying amount of all its liabilities; and (2) the total carrying amount of the Company’s liabilities connected with insurance were compared to the total carrying amount of all its liabilities. Based on these assessments the Company determined that it is eligible for the temporary exemption. Consequently, the Company has decided to defer the implementation of IFRS 9 until the effective date of the new insurance contracts standard. Disclosures related to financial assets required during the deferral period are included in the Company’s financial statements.Impact assessmentOverall, the Company expects some impact of applying the impairment requirements of IFRS 9 on the financial statements of the Company. However, the impact of the same is not expected to be significant. At present it is not possible to provide reasonable estimate of the effects of application of this new standard as the Company is yet to perform a detailed review. WATANIYA INSURANCE COMPANY (A Saudi Joint Stock Company)Notes to the Interim Condensed Financial Statements (continued)March 31, 2020(All amounts in Saudi Riyals thousands unless otherwise stated)3 Significant accounting policies (continued)Standards issued but not yet effective (continued) IFRS 17 – Insurance ContractsOverviewThis standard has been published on May 18, 2017, it establishes the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of insurance contracts and supersedes IFRS 4 – Insurance contracts.The new standard applies to insurance contracts issued, to all reinsurance contracts and to investment contracts with discretionary participating features provided the entity also issues insurance contracts. It requires to separate the following components from insurance contracts:i.embedded derivatives, if they meet certain specified criteria;ii.distinct investment components; andiii.any promise to transfer distinct goods or non-insurance services.These components should be accounted for separately in accordance with the related standards (IFRS 9 and IFRS 15). MeasurementIn contrast to the requirements in IFRS 4, which permitted insurers to continue to use the accounting policies for measurement purposes that existed prior to January 2015, IFRS 17 provides the following different measurement models:1)The General Measurement Model (GMM) is based on the following “building blocks”:a)the fulfilment cash flows (FCF), which comprises:probability-weighted estimates of future cash flows;an adjustment to reflect the time value of money (i.e. discounting) and the financial risks associated with those future cash flows;and a risk adjustment for non-financial risk.b)the Contractual Service Margin (CSM). The CSM represents the unearned profit for a group of insurance contracts and will be recognized as the entity provides services in the future. The CSM cannot be negative at inception; any net negative amount of the fulfilment cash flows at inception will be recorded in profit or loss immediately.At the end of each subsequent reporting period the carrying amount of a group of insurance contracts is remeasured to be the sum of:the liability for remaining coverage, which comprises the FCF related to future services and the CSM of the group at that date;and the liability for incurred claims, which is measured as the FCF related to past services allocated to the group at that date.The CSM is adjusted subsequently for changes in cash flows related to future services but the CSM cannot be negative, so changes in future cash flows that are greater than the remaining CSM are recognized in profit or loss. Interest is also accreted on the CSM at rates locked in at initial recognition of a contract (i.e. discount rate used at inception to determine the present value of the estimated cash flows). Moreover, the CSM will be released into profit or loss based on coverage units, reflecting the quantity of the benefits provided and the expected coverage duration of the remaining contracts in the group WATANIYA INSURANCE COMPANY (A Saudi Joint Stock Company)Notes to the Interim Condensed Financial Statements (continued)March 31, 2020(All amounts in Saudi Riyals thousands unless otherwise stated)3 Significant accounting policies (continued)Standards issued but not yet effective (continued) IFRS 17 – Insurance Contracts (continued)2)The Variable Fee Approach (VFA):VFA is a mandatory model for measuring contracts with direct participation features (also referred to as ‘direct participating contracts’). This assessment of whether the contract meets these criteria is made at inception of the contract and not reassessed subsequently. For these contracts, the CSM is also adjusted for in addition to adjustment under general model:i.changes in the entity’s share of the fair value of underlying items;ii.changes in the effect of the time value of money and financial risks not relating to the underlying items.In addition, a simplified Premium Allocation Approach (PAA) is permitted for the measurement of the liability for the remaining coverage if it provides a measurement that is not materially different from the general model or if the coverage period for each contract in the group is one year or less. With the PAA, the liability for remaining coverage corresponds to premiums received at initial recognition less insurance acquisition cash flows. The general model remains applicable for the measurement of incurred claims. However, the entity is not required to adjust future cash flows for the time value of money and the effect of financial risk if those cash flows are expected to be paid/received in one year or less from the date the claims are incurred.Effective dateThe IASB issued an Exposure Draft Amendments to IFRS 17 during June 2019 and received comments from various stakeholders. The IASB is currently re-deliberating issues raised by stakeholders. For any proposed amendments to IFRS 17, the IASB will follow its normal due process for standard-setting. The effective date of IFRS 17 and the deferral of the IFRS 9 temporary exemption in IFRS 4, is currently January 1, 2021. Under the current exposure draft, it is proposed to amend the IFRS 17 effective date to reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. This is a deferral of 2 years compared to the previous date of January 1, 2021. Earlier application is permitted if both IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers and IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments have also been applied. The Company intend to apply the standard on its effective date.TransitionRetrospective application is required. However, if full retrospective application for a group of insurance contracts is impracticable, then the entity is required to choose either a modified retrospective approach or a fair value approach.Presentation and DisclosuresThe Company expects that the new standard will result in a change to the accounting policies for insurance contracts together with amendments to presentation and disclosures. Impact assessmentThe Company is currently assessing the impact of the application and implementation of IFRS 17. As of the date of the publication of these interim condensed financial statements, the financial impact of adopting the standard is yet to be fully assessed by the Company. The Company has undertaken a Gap Analysis and the key Gaps are as follows: Impact areaSummary of impactFinancial impactNot yet fully assessed by the Company.Data impactThe Company believes that the data impact is not likely to be significant as a major proportion of the Company’s business would qualify for measurement under the premium allocation approach.IT systemsWith respect to IT-systems, the Company has short listed a vendor to provide the necessary technical support to ensure an effective implementation of IFRS 17. The current accounting chart of accounts is under review for amendments to comply with IFRS 17 requirements. In addition, new disclosures will need to be developed.Process impactThe process impact is under evaluation, but no significant process changes are anticipated. However, should the Company shift its focus to majority long term business, the process impact would be significant.Impact on reinsurance arrangementsThe Company’s reinsurance arrangements under the proportional treaties currently are under testing to determine the suitable measurement approach.Impact on policies & control’s frameworksThe has hired an external consultant to modify their current policies control framework, to be more compliant towards the requirements of IFRS 17.Human resources The Company intends to recruit suitably qualified personnel who have a comprehensive understanding of the IFRS 17. The Company also intends to provide adequate training to existing staff.The Company has started with their implementation process and have set up a proper team, supervised by a steering committee. | 3 |

| Disclosure of summary of significant accounting policies, general comment [text block] | The accounting policies used in the preparation of these interim condensed financial statements are consistent with those used in the preparation of the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 except as explained below:New IFRS, International Financial Reporting and Interpretations Committee’s interpretations (IFRIC) and amendments thereof, adopted by the CompanyThe following new standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions to existing standards, which were issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) have been effective from January 1, 2020, as applicable:Amendments to IAS 39 and IFRS 7: Interest Rate Benchmark ReformThe amendments to and IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement provide a number of reliefs, which apply to all hedging relationships that are directly affected by interest rate benchmark reform. A hedging relationship is affected if the reform gives rise to uncertainties about the timing and or amount of benchmark-based cash flows of the hedged item or the hedging instrument. These amendments had no impact on the interim condensed financial statements of the Company as it does not have any interest rate hedge relationships.Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8: Definition of MaterialThe amendments provide a new definition of material that states “information is material if omitting, misstating or obscuring it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of general purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements, which provide financial information about a specific reporting entity.” The amendments clarify that materiality will depend on the nature or magnitude of information, either individually or in combination with other information, in the context of the financial statements. A misstatement of information is material if it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions made by the primary users. These amendments had no impact on the interim condensed financial statements of, nor is there expected to be any future impact to the Company.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.New IFRS, International Financial Reporting and Interpretations Committee’s interpretations (IFRIC) and amendments thereof, adopted by the Company (continued)Amendments to IFRS 3: Definition of a businessThe amendment to IFRS 3 clarifies that to be considered a business, an integrated set of activities and assets must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create output. Furthermore, it clarified that a business can exist without including all of the inputs and processes needed to create outputs. These amendments had no impact on the interim condensed financial statements of the Company but may impact future periods should the Company enter into any business combinations.Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting issued on March 29, 2018The Conceptual Framework is not a standard, and none of the concepts contained therein override the concepts or requirements in any standard. The purpose of the Conceptual Framework is to assist the IASB in developing standards, to help preparers develop consistent accounting policies where there is no applicable standard in place and to assist all parties to understand and interpret the standards. The revised Conceptual Framework includes some new concepts, provides updated definitions and recognition criteria for assets and liabilities and clarifies some important concepts. These amendments had no impact on the interim condensed financial statements of the Company.Zakat and income taxAs mentioned under note 2, the basis of preparation of the financial statements was changed period beginning June 30, 2019, as a result of the issuance of instructions from SAMA dated 17 July 2019. Previously, zakat and income tax were recognized in the statement of changes in equity as per the SAMA circular no 381000074519 dated April 11, 2017 (the ‘Old instructions’). With the latest instructions issued by SAMA dated 17 July 2019, the zakat and income tax is recognized in the statement of income. This change was already reflected in the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2019. However, since the change was made beginning period ended June 30, 2019, the interim financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2019, were already issued and prepared using Old instructions. Accordingly, for the purposes of the interim condensed financial statements of the Company for the period ended March 31, 2020, the comparatives for March 31, 2019, have been restated to give effect to the latest instructions. The Company has accounted for this change in the accounting for zakat and income tax retrospectively (see note 3) and the effects of the above change are disclosed in note 3 to the interim condensed financial statements. The change has resulted in reduction of reported income of the Company for the period ended March 31, 2019 by SR 2.2 million. The change has had no impact on the statements of changes shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the period ended March 31, 2019.As at and for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019:AccountPrimary statement impactedAs previously reported as at and for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019Effect ofrestatementAs restated as at and for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019Zakat and income taxInterim statement of income-(1,482)(1,482)Income tax chargeInterim statement of income-(742)(742)Net income for the periodInterim statement of income; and Interim statement of comprehensive income7,137(2,224)4,913Earnings per share for the period (expressed in SR per share)Interim statement of income0.36(0.11)0.25Zakat Interim statement of changes in shareholders’ equity(1,482)1,482-Income tax chargeInterim statement of changes in shareholders’ equity(742)742-Total comprehensive income for the periodInterim statement of comprehensive income; and Interim statement of changes in shareholders’ equity 6,966(2,224)4,742The financial impact of adoption of accounting policy for deferred tax is not material to the interim condensed financial statements, therefore prior period amounts for such impact have not been restated. As required under IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, the balances as of January 1, 2019 were not presented in the statement of financial position as change in the accounting policy has not resulted in restatement of the amounts relating to year ended December 31, 2018.Standards issued but not yet effectiveStandards and interpretation 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 are effectiveStandard/InterpretationDescriptionEffective from periods beginning on or after the following dateIFRS 17Insurance Contracts See note belowIFRS 9Financial InstrumentsSee note belowIFRS 9 – Financial InstrumentsThis standard was published on July 24, 2014 and has replaced IAS 39. The new standard addresses the following items related to financial instruments:a) Classification and measurementIFRS 9 uses a single approach to determine whether a financial asset is measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income or fair value through profit or loss. A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if both:i. the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; andii. the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding (“SPPI”).The financial asset is measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and realized gains or losses would be recycled through profit or loss upon sale, if both conditions are met:i. the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and for sale; andii. the contractual terms of cash flows are SPPI.Assets not meeting either of these categories are measured at fair value through profit or loss. Additionally, at initial recognition, an entity can use the option to designate a financial asset at fair value through profit or loss if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch.For equity instruments that are not held for trading, an entity can also make an irrevocable election to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value of the instruments (including realized gains and losses on disposal), dividends being recognized in statement of income.Additionally, for financial liabilities that are designated as at fair value through profit or loss, the amount of change in the fair value of the financial liability that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability is recognized in other comprehensive income, unless the recognition of the effects of changes in the liability’s credit risk in other comprehensive income would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in statement of income.b) ImpairmentThe impairment model under IFRS 9 reflects expected credit losses, as opposed to incurred credit losses under IAS 39. Under the IFRS 9 approach, it is no longer necessary for a credit event to have occurred before credit losses are recognized. Instead, an entity always accounts for expected credit losses and changes in those expected credit losses. The amount of expected credit losses is updated at each reporting date to reflect changes in credit risk since initial recognition.c) Hedge accountingIFRS 9 introduces new requirements for hedge accounting that align hedge accounting more closely with Risk Management. The requirements establish a more principles-based approach to the general hedge accounting model. The amendments apply to all hedge accounting with the exception of portfolio fair value hedges of interest rate risk (commonly referred to as “fair value macro hedges”). For these, an entity may continue to apply the hedge accounting requirements currently in IAS 39. This exception was granted largely because the IASB is addressing macro hedge accounting as a separate project.Effective dateThe published effective date of IFRS 9 was January 1, 2018. However, amendments to IFRS 4 – Insurance Contracts: Applying IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments with IFRS 4 – Insurance Contracts, published on September 12, 2016, changes the existing IFRS 4 to allow entities issuing insurance contracts within the scope of IFRS 4 to mitigate certain effects of applying IFRS 9 before the IASB’s new insurance contract standard (IFRS 17 – Insurance Contracts) becomes effective. The amendments introduce two alternative options:1.Apply a temporary exemption from implementing IFRS 9 until the earlier of:a)the effective date of a new insurance contract standard; orb)annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2021. The IASB is proposing to extend the effective date of IFRS 17 and the IFRS 9 temporary exemption in IFRS 4 to January 1, 2022. Additional disclosures related to financial assets are required during the deferral period. This option is only available to entities whose activities are predominately connected with insurance and have not applied IFRS 9 previously; or2.Adopt IFRS 9 but, for designated financial assets, remove from profit or loss the effects of some of the accounting mismatches that may occur before the new insurance contract standard is implemented. During the interim period, additional disclosures are required.The Company has performed a detailed assessment beginning January 1, 2018: (1) The carrying amount of the Company’s liabilities arising from contracts within the scope of IFRS 4 (including deposit components or embedded derivatives unbundled from insurance contracts) were compared to the total carrying amount of all its liabilities; and (2) the total carrying amount of the Company’s liabilities connected with insurance were compared to the total carrying amount of all its liabilities. Based on these assessments the Company determined that it is eligible for the temporary exemption. Consequently, the Company has decided to defer the implementation of IFRS 9 until the effective date of the new insurance contracts standard. Disclosures related to financial assets required during the deferral period are included in the Company’s financial statements.Impact assessmentOverall, the Company expects some impact of applying the impairment requirements of IFRS 9 on the financial statements of the Company. However, the impact of the same is not expected to be significant. At present it is not possible to provide reasonable estimate of the effects of application of this new standard as the Company is yet to perform a detailed review.

Zakat base has been computed based on the Company’s understanding of the zakat regulations enforced in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The zakat regulations in Saudi Arabia are subject to different interpretations, and the assessments to be raised by the General Authority of Zakat and Tax (“GAZT”) could be different from the declaration filed by the Company.11.2 Provision for zakat and income taxMarch 31, 2020(Unaudited)December 31, 2019 (Audited)Opening balance5,8537,305Charge for zakat1,2004,161Charge for income tax-1,184Payments of zakat (44)(4,784)Payments of income tax (131)(292)Reduction in tax recoverable-(185)Other charges- 7Tax paid in advance-(1,543)Closing balance6,8785,853Zakat is payable at 2.5% of higher of the approximate zakat base and adjusted net income attributable to Saudi shareholders.Provision for income tax is payable at 20% of the adjusted net income attributable to the foreign shareholders of the Company, less allowances for foreign shareholders’ share in the losses carry forwarded from previous year calculated in accordance with the guidelines provided in the income tax regulations. Income tax paid is recovered from foreign shareholders. No provision for income tax has been charged in these financial statements as the Company has incurred a taxable loss during the three-month period ended March 31, 2020.The shareholding percentage subject to zakat and income tax is as follows:March 31, 2020(Unaudited)December 31, 2019 (Audited)%%Zakat74.4474.44Income tax25.5625.5611.3Status of assessments The Company has filed its tax returns with GAZT from inception up to 2019. The Company’s tax and zakat position has been finalized up to the years ended December 31, 2012. The tax return for 2013 is deemed to be finalized as no queries has been received from the GAZT and the statutory time limit of 5 years is over. The tax returns filed for the years from 2014 to 2017 are currently being reviewed by the GAZT. The Company has received the final assessment for 2018 for zakat and income tax, the assessment has raised additional tax and Zakat liability for SR 175 thousand. Management has accepted this assessment and has paid this amount in the current reporting period.In addition to above, the Company has also received an assessment for the 2018 withholding tax liability in which the GAZT has imposed additional taxes, including penalties, of SR 11.37 million. Management believes that the assessment raised is without merit and has appealed against this assessment. The Company’s initial appeal was rejected by the GAZT and has been escalated to the General Secretariat of Tax Committee (GSTC) online portal in order to assign the hearing session by the related Committee to discuss the Company's objection. However, management of the Company believes that there is a high probability to wave the majority of this assessment and hence no additional liability has been recorded against this assessment. | 11 |
| Description of accounting policy for fair value measurement [text block] | Fair values of financial instruments Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction takes place either:-in the accessible principal market for the asset or liability, or-in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantages accessible market for the asset or liability.The fair values of on-balance sheet financial instruments are not significantly different from their carrying amounts included in these interim condensed financial statements.Determination of fair value and fair value hierarchyThe Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments:Level 1: quoted prices in active markets for the same or identical instrument that an entity can access at the measurement date;Level 2: quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities or other valuation techniques for which all significant inputs are based on observable market data; andLevel 3: valuation techniques for which any significant input is not based on observable market data.As at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, all financial instruments which are fair valued are Level 3 instruments except for investment in sukuks and equity amounting to SR 31.51 million (December 31, 2019: SR 30.03 million) and SR 2.62 million (December 31, 2019:SR 3.02 million) which are Level 1 investments. The Company ascertains the Level 3 fair values based on a valuation technique which is primarily derived by net assets value of the respective investee at the period end. There are no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 during the period.Available-for-sale investment is carried at cost as its fair value cannot be measured reliably. | 17 |

Segment assets do not include cash and cash equivalents, premiums receivables, investments, due from reinsurers, prepaid expenses and other assets, property and equipment, statutory deposit and accrued income on statutory deposit. Accordingly, they are included in unallocated assets. Segment liabilities do not include policy holders claims payable, accrued and other liabilities, due to reinsurers, agents, brokers and third-party administrators, surplus distribution payable, zakat and income tax, and accrued income on statutory deposit. Accordingly, they are included in unallocated liabilities.These unallocated assets and liabilities are not reported to chief operating decision maker under related segments and are monitored on a centralized basis.The segment information provided to the Company’s Board of Directors for the reportable segments for the Company’s total assets and liabilities at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, its total revenues, expenses, and net income for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, are as follows:MarinePropertyMotorEngineeringAccident & liabilityExtended warrantyTerm lifeTotalFor the three-month period ended March 31,2020 (unaudited)RevenuesGross premiums written17,54765,302134,94335,27618,5187,11624,066 302,768Reinsurance premiums ceded (13,222)(59,436)(3,368)(33,789)(13,393)(7,116)(19,891) (150,215)Excess of loss expenses(1,389)(675)(1,350)(300)(90)-- (3,804)Net premiums written2,9365,191130,2251,1875,035-4,175148,749Change in unearnedpremiums, net(1,147)(3,304)(35,307)(455)(2,737)-(1,453)(44,403)Net premiums earned1,7891,88794,9187322,298-2,722104,346Reinsurance commissions 3,2124,2173744,5841,4044952,99717,283Other underwriting income229-413-351Total revenues5,0236,11395,2925,3203,7154955,722121,680Cost and expensesGross claims paid and loss adjustment expenses, net of recoveries2,2871,74768,7676553,4351,5868,66187,138Reinsurer’s share of claims paid(1,586)(1,629)(2,038)(572)(3,118)(1,586)(7,409)(17,938)Net claims paid70111866,72983317-1,25269,200Changes in outstanding claims, net100103,84874(40) -

Zakat base has been computed based on the Company’s understanding of the zakat regulations enforced in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The zakat regulations in Saudi Arabia are subject to different interpretations, and the assessments to be raised by the General Authority of Zakat and Tax (“GAZT”) could be different from the declaration filed by the Company.11.2 Provision for zakat and income taxMarch 31, 2020(Unaudited)December 31, 2019 (Audited)Opening balance5,8537,305Charge for zakat1,2004,161Charge for income tax-1,184Payments of zakat (44)(4,784)Payments of income tax (131)(292)Reduction in tax recoverable-(185)Other charges- 7Tax paid in advance-(1,543)Closing balance6,8785,853Zakat is payable at 2.5% of higher of the approximate zakat base and adjusted net income attributable to Saudi shareholders.Provision for income tax is payable at 20% of the adjusted net income attributable to the foreign shareholders of the Company, less allowances for foreign shareholders’ share in the losses carry forwarded from previous year calculated in accordance with the guidelines provided in the income tax regulations.

The tax returns filed for the years from 2014 to 2017 are currently being reviewed by the GAZT. The Company has received the final assessment for 2018 for zakat and income tax, the assessment has raised additional tax and Zakat liability for SR 175 thousand. Management has accepted this assessment and has paid this amount in the current reporting period.In addition to above, the Company has also received an assessment for the 2018 withholding tax liability in which the GAZT has imposed additional taxes, including penalties, of SR 11.37 million. Management believes that the assessment raised is without merit and has appealed against this assessment. The Company’s initial appeal was rejected by the GAZT and has been escalated to the General Secretariat of Tax Committee (GSTC) online portal in order to assign the hearing session by the related Committee to discuss the Company's objection. However, management of the Company believes that there is a high probability to wave the majority of this assessment and hence no additional liability has been recorded against this assessment. | 11 |
