 as an asset and if it is negative, it is recorded as a liability. Unless there is evidence to the contrary, it is understood that on the date of arrangement the fair value of the derivatives is equal to the transaction price. Changes in the fair value of derivatives after the date of arrangement are recognized in the heading “Gains (losses) on financial assets and liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss, net” in the consolidated income statement.
Specifically, the fair value of the standard financial derivatives included in the held for trading portfolios is equal to their daily quoted price. If, under exceptional circumstances, their quoted price cannot be established on a given date, these derivatives are measured using methods similar to those used to measure over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives.
The fair value of OTC derivatives is equal to the sum of the future cash flows arising from the instruments discounted at the measurement date (“present value” or “theoretical value”). These derivatives are measured using methods recognized by the financial markets, including the net present value method and option price calculation models.
Financial derivatives that have equity instruments as their underlying, whose fair value cannot be determined in a sufficiently objective manner and are settled by delivery of those instruments, are measured at cost, although the amortized cost criteria is not used when accounting for these instruments.
Financial derivatives designated as hedging items are included in the heading of the balance sheet “Derivatives - Hedge accounting”. These financial derivatives are valued at fair value.
See Note 2.2.1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, which contains a summary of our significant accounting policies with respect to these instruments.
Goodwill in consolidation
Pursuant to IFRS 3, if the difference on the date of a business combination between the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of all the non-controlling interests and the fair value of equity interest previously held in the acquired entity, on one hand, and the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, on the other hand, is positive, it is recorded as goodwill on the asset side of the balance sheet. Goodwill represents the advance payment made by the entity for future economic benefits, from assets that have not been individually identified nor separately recognized in a business combination.
Goodwill is allocated to one or more cash-generating units (CGUs), that will benefit from the synergies arising from business combinations. CGUs represent the smallest identifiable groups of assets that generate cash flows for the Group.
Goodwill is not amortized and is subject periodically to an impairment
