NON-CURRENT ASSETS HELD FOR SALE AND ASSOCIATED LIABILITIES

Accounting principles Where a decision is made to sell non-current assets and it is highly probable that the sale will occur within 12 months, these assets are shown separately on the balance sheet on the “Non-current assets held for sale” line. Any liabilities associated with these assets are also shown separately on the balance sheet on the “Liabilities associated with non-current assets held for sale” line. Once classified in this category, non-current assets are no longer depreciated/amortized and are measured at the lowest of their carrying amount or fair value less sales costs. Financial instruments continue to be measured in accordance with IFRS 9. A non-current asset (or group of assets) is held for sale when its carrying amount is recovered by its sale. The asset (or group of assets) must be immediately available for sale and it must be highly likely that the sale will be completed within the next twelve months.

At December 31, 2018, “Non-current assets held for sale” and “Liabilities associated with non-current assets held for sale” related to the assets and liabilities of BPCE International’s African subsidiaries and the assets and liabilities of subsidiary Banco Primus. In fiscal year 2019, BPCE International’s subsidiaries in Sub-Saharan Africa were sold (see Note 1.3). Furthermore, lacking the approval of the Portuguese authorities, Groupe BPCE elected to no longer use IFRS 5 classification for the assets and liabilities of subsidiary Banco Primus. Lastly, at June 30, 2019 Groupe BPCE had considered that its investment in Fidor
