If this situation continues, uncollectable debt will surge, which will undermine the asset soundness of banks, pushing up bad debt expenses and bringing down capital adequacy ratios. Woori Financial Group is at the crossroads of a pivotal moment when risk management takes on more importance than ever before. Woori Bank is aware that risk management must take by predicting growth rates in accordance with the industrial outlook, in order to induce its assets to grow in promising sectors. For assets in sectors that are growing too quickly such as in real estate leasing, Woori Bank took restrictive measures to pace that growth. As a result, asset soundness improved to an NPL ratio of 0.4 percent by the end of 2019.

Enhancing the Credit Evaluation Model Woori Bank operates two credit evaluation models: one for corporate borrowers and another for retail borrowers. The credit evaluation mod- els calculate the expected default rate of the borrower and evaluate their credit ratings. In 2019, Woori Bank enhanced both the retail and corporate models by incorporating the latest data and obtained the FSS approval. In order to reinforce the management of emerging risks, Woori Bank will widen its scope of monitored assets at overseas branches and in the IB Business Group. Woori Bank will conduct inspections on a regular basis and report findings to the management. Thresholds on transactions in derivatives will be managed more intensively and man- agement system of derivatives transaction counterparties will be en- hanced. For non-face-to-face loans, Woori Bank will analyze the inher- ent risks of borrowers and flexibly operate lending approval strategies.

Improving “PC-Off” Policies for Work-Life Balance The Banking industry has characteristically imposed a work environment that entailed overtime work into the night. To improve such conditions, Woori Bank introduced a work-life balance policy in 2013, which then became established as part of corporate culture at Woori Bank, as most offices and branches came to comply well with the policy. The so-called ‘PC-Off’ deadline is at 19:00 to ensure employees have time for leisure activities and family life and to help them return to work with greater efficiency and focus. In July 2019, Woori Bank took the initiative in striking the work-life balance of its employees by firmly establishing the 52-hour work week system and flexible work hours. Building a Healthy and Vibrant Work Culture Woori Bank offers annual medical check-ups and blood tests in order to continually and systemat- ically manage the health of its employees. If any symptoms are identified from the check-ups, the bank supports affected employees with its group accident insurance and the Bank’s medical fee sub- sidy plan to create a healthy and active work culture. In addition, Woori Bank also adopted the “Smart Health Check-Up Service” that is more convenient and allows for a faster application for check-ups. This service allows employees to check on their reservations, changes, and results in real-time via an app. It is built in a way that allows the health status and check-up results to be systematically cumu- lated and managed. Furthermore, its employees and their families are entitled to book and use the shared condominiums Woori Bank owns all over the country. These facilities are now made available to employees for much longer periods, allowing longer stays for more employees. These benefits help its employees refresh themselves and build a vibrant work culture.

For 121 long years, Woori Bank fulfilled its role to contribute to national development, driven by the pride of being the bank of Korean capital. Particularly in today’s world, where the emphasis is on the social roles and responsibilities of finance, the bank continues to practice sharing in order to prosper together with local communities to realize the three values of Humanity, Happiness and Hopefulness, and carry out diverse social contribution activities including support for small merchants and microfinance in order to fulfill responsibilities as a major financial institution. 2019 Performance Humanity: Humanity in Action with Local Communities Woori[we] Love Sharing Program: Woori Bank’s Signature CSR Program Since launching the Woori Bank Volunteer Corps in July 2007, Woori Bank has been engaged in a number of social contribution activities through its nationwide branch network. The Woori [We] Love Sharing Program is signature CSR program for all bank employees to take part in social con- tribution activities. It involves welfare facilities that have established sisterhood agreements with 34 regional business headquarters. The bank encourages employees to volunteer and provide sponsorship on a regular basis for the socially marginalized, including struggling youngsters, elderly citizens, and the disabled. Woori Bank also runs a social contribution campaign in the first and second half of the year, giving out awards to high-performing branches in the area of social contribution to encourage voluntary participation by employees. The donations for social welfare centers raised during the campaign period are used to support the underprivileged. In February 2019, as part of the Woori G-CSR Festival 2019, Woori Bank deployed a bank-wide social contri- bution campaign with the participation of subsidiaries and branches from 26 nations across the globe as well as domestic branches. From its global network, 317 employees in 22 subsidiaries and branches of Woori Financial Group from the US, China, Cambodia, Brazil and India took part, while domestically, 721 employees from 64 branches came together to help neighbors in need. Donations amounting to KRW 115.4 million were delivered to social welfare facilities to support the socially marginalized. “Blood Drive” with Greater Compassion Woori Bank has been conducting a ‘blood drive’ campaign since 2006. The campaign, carried out during July and August when the need for blood is greatest, is one of Woori Bank’s longest running social contribution activities where employees from branches nationwide voluntarily visit nearby blood donation centers to donate blood and receive donation certificates. In 2019, the bank re- ceived a total of 1,078 blood donation certificates after the blood donations from Woori Financial Group employees were delivered to the Catholic University Eunpyeong at St. Mary’s Hospital for patients fighting incurable illnesses, including leukemia and pediatric cancer. Woori Bank will continue the blood drive consistently, so that voluntary blood donations by its employees can help save lives. “Good Together” – A global CSR campaign launched by Woori Financial Group Blood Drive Campaign for underprivileged patients fighting incurable illnesses including leukemia and pediatric cancer WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 Woori Care Fund Project 5,760 employees KRW 395 million In 2019, an average of 5,760 employees voluntarily took part each month and raised a total of KRW 395 million Woori Bank 069 Sharing Daily Necessities for the Underprivileged Woori Bank continues to engage in the act of sharing with the underprivileged during traditional holidays and the winter season.

These kits went out to 2,300 house- holds in Seoul, including to elderly individuals living alone and to low-income families. For the Chu- seok holidays, KRW 100 million’s worth of meal kits consisting of essential staples such as seasonal fruit and meat were delivered to 120 facilities in Seoul that house children, the elderly, persons with disabilities and the homeless, in an effort to reach out to the socially marginalized who live within the blind spots of welfare assistance. Happiness: Pursuing Happiness through Sharing Woori People’s Culture of Donation: “Woori Care Fund” Woori Bank runs the “Woori Care Fund” where employees voluntarily donate a certain percentage of their monthly pay to help fund social initiatives. Woori Care Fund was launched in 2003 for CSR purposes with the voluntary participation of employees. As of 2019, an average of 5,760 employ- ees participated each month and raised a total of KRW 395 million. The Fund finances the “Woori Care Fund Public Competition Project” where outstanding social welfare programs are submitted by non-profit corporations and groups across the nation in the first and second half of the year to receive on-on-one matching donations from Woori Bank in a bid to support the socially marginal- ized. Woori Bank is now twelve years into the project since its start in 2009 and it has supported ex- cellent social welfare programs that target marginalized children and elderly citizens who fall with- in the blind spots of social welfare. This project does a great deal in supporting the independence of the socially vulnerable, and provides cultural support for the marginalized. In 2019, Woori Bank donated KRW 300 million to 20 social welfare organizations and 20 community children’s centers. In particular, the bank utilized leading donation platforms in Korea such as Happy Bean of Naver Co. and Together with Kakao of Daum Kakao Corp. to maximize customer donation in support of outstanding social welfare programs in the community.

Business Performance The volume of payments being settled via cards is increasing, driven by a growing membership pool, aligned business with Woori Bank and an aggressive entry into the simple payment market.

In addition, as part of the efforts to develop new businesses to diversify its revenue base, Woori Card has been operating installment, lease and credit loan businesses since 2016, while continuously expanding source of long-term income. As credit card merchant fees were lowered, its profits decreased by KRW 95.6 billion in 2019. However, Woori Card overachieved its initial target for net income (KRW 81.3 billion) with KRW 114.2 billion, thanks to financial asset ex- pansions, cost-cutting efforts and non-recurring factors relating to the BC Card litigation. Part 2. Business Management Rationalization Woori Card endeavors to systematically respond to the evolving business environment. Woori Card boosted focus on core functions and sped up decision-making processes by streamlining or- ganization through functional readjustments among departments. Driven by dedicated Big Data organization, Woori Card is also pressing ahead with ultra-personalized customer management by advancing marketing efforts to a whole new level, reinforcing the loyalty of active members and boosting the usage among inactive or dormant members. In addition, Woori Card established a new digital marketing organization to respond to the changes in the digital finance ecosystem such as the growth of simple payments. 2020 Plans Overall business conditions for the credit card industry are expected to only worsen in 2020. The pace of growth in the industry is predicted to slow amid contracted private consumption, a near-mature credit card business environment, ever-rising household debt, lower merchant fees and particularly because of universal recession triggered by COVID-19. Further threats are posed by fiercer competition from other industries such as ICT companies expanding their business in the payment and settlement market and online-only banks planning to launch credit card businesses. In order to meet such changes head on, Woori Card sets the business goal of 2020 as “Securing the Future Growth Engine through Innovation and Challenge”, under which the company has six business strategies: Raising Value alongside Customers; Securing Sources of Income; Accelerating Digital Innovation; Bolstering Risk/Compliance Monitoring; Expanding Group Synergy; and Firmly Establishing the Foundation for Future Growth. To this end, Woori Card plans to focus on boosting income by thoroughly managing the profitabil- ity of each business and efficiently controlling costs. In addition, Woori Card will expand profitable 2017 2018 2019 assets mainly through high-value members by reinforcing data analytics and advancing marketing efforts. Woori Card will also readjust portfolio to attract new members and improve cost structure. Woori Card will secure the foundation to continuously create income by aggressively boosting the efficiency of its business management: Woori Card will actively cut costs by raising company-wide business efficiency; deploy ultra-personalized marketing driven by a dedicated Big Data organiza- tion; and bolster asset soundness by thoroughly managing risk. Furthermore, in order to secure the engine of new growth, Woori Card will make the utmost effort to align with the global networks of Woori Bank and expand synergetic businesses with Group affiliates under Woori Financial Group.

WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 Woori Asset Trust 081 WOORI ASSET TRUST Woori Asset Trust is a comprehensive real estate financing company that Woori Financial Group newly acquired in 2019. On the basis of experience and customer trust cumulated over nearly 20 years, Woori Asset Trust pushes forward continued growth with over KRW 30 trillion in entrusted assets. Woori Asset Trust will provide the complete financial services for the Group to become the No.1 comprehensive real estate financing company with an excellent customer satisfaction track record by managing customer assets in a safe but highly profitable manner. 2019 Performance Since its incorporation into the Woori Financial Group as of December 30 2019, Woori Asset Trust has restructured its organization under the leadership of the current co-CEOs, aiming to invigo- rate synergetic effects created by the “business management sector” and the “business promo- tion sector”. Despite the industry-wide recession, market impact and financial strain on Woori Asset Trust were both limited as business has a low percentage of loan-type land trusts that are high-risk in nature. Woori Asset Trust was able to generate stable profits by gradually expanding its proportion of management-type land trusts backed by completion guarantees, based on its existing strength in collateral trust, agency business and other areas that are relatively less sensitive to fluctuations in the real estate market.

WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 WOORI ASSET MANAGEMENT AUM KRW 19.1 trillion Net Income KRW 8 billion 2019 Market Share 1.57% Woori Asset Management 083 Woori Asset Management is a comprehensive asset management company that carries out fund management, investment advisory business, discretionary investment and additional lines of business. On top of managing the three leading publicly offered bond funds – Woori High Plus Bond Fund, Woori High Plus Short Duration Blue Chip Bond Fund and Woori Short-Term Bond Fund – Woori Asset Management is entrusted to manage discretionary funds by multiple institutions including pension companies, insurers, banks and mutual aid associations. Woori Asset Management is also gaining substantial recognition with stock funds including index funds, small-mid high dividend funds and Samsung Group stock funds. 2019 Performance As of end of 2019, in net asset value (NAV) terms, Woori Asset Management is entrusted to man- age KRW 19.1 trillion, around the same level as was at the end 2018, and it realized a net income of KRW 8 billion. In terms of assets under management (AUM), market share was 1.57 percent, 2.3 percentage points down from the 1.80 percent at the end of 2018. Breakdown of key changes revealed that the AUM of stock funds grew by KRW 223.9 billion (up 17.4 percent y-o-y) and that of bond funds dropped by KRW 258.3 billion (down 1.8 percent q-o-q).

Since then, however, interest rates have rebounded and investors have withdrawn their money from bond funds. Publicly offered bond funds underperformed as they are short- er-lived than competing funds as a result of going after a “bank rate plus mark-up” yield. Private eq- uity bond funds, on the other hand, are performing solidly, under stable management that meets the needs of institutional beneficiaries. For stock bonds, Woori Asset Management adopted a new management method focused on re- sponsible investment and applied a Quant Model in pursuit of alpha. As a result, stock bonds are performing better, realizing a healthy yield well above the benchmark. The Global Investment Management Unit, established on October 21 2019, will boost competitive- ness by broadening the product line-up that meets the market needs. Woori Asset Management launched the Global EMP Asset Allocation Fund and is preparing a TDF (Target Date Fund) to raise its market share in retirement pensions. It also seeks to regain investors’ trust by pushing up yields on Chinese and Vietnamese funds. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsFinancial Review 084 Net Income KRW 8 billion YoY +33.3% Operating Income KRW 10.2 billion YoY +21% 2020 Plans Business goal for 2020 is reliable management with highest priority on customers’ yield. Under this goal, Woori Asset Management expects to increase net income by 19.5 percent to KRW 10.4 billion and add a face value amount of KRW 4.3 trillion to its AUM. Under this goal, Woori Asset Management is aggressively promoting specific tasks that include diversifying new sales channels, expanding new product line-ups, advancing a research-based management process and perfor- mance evaluation system, bolstering preemptive risk management and creating synergetic effects with Group affiliates. Woori Asset Management foresees an annual average growth rate of around 5 percent for con- ventional stock and bond funds. Previously, it managed to achieve market-level growth, mainly through bond funds. This type of growth, however, is no longer viable as interest rates remain low and the market share of bond funds has reached its maximum level. As such, Woori Asset Manage- ment aims to overcome somewhat limited recognition resulting from its focus on handling small and mid-cap stocks by expanding market share in the large-cap stock market to equip itself with a new engine for growth. In 2020, Woori Asset Management will also bolster synergetic effects with the holding company. Woori Asset Management will promote joint marketing efforts for key products including MMFs for individual investors and bond funds by reinforcing affiliated sales with Woori Bank. It will also provide “tailored” products to CIB and WM customers. In addition, Woori Asset Management plans to boost Group collaboration to prepare for the introduction of the trust-based retirement pension scheme and also develop new products by collaborating with IB. It also aims to fully step into the role of being a Solution Provider and develop solution products and TDF products that meet the needs of investors.

Woori Private Equity Asset Manage- ment is a first generation private equity fund management company in Korea that was established in October 2005. In July 2016, the company expanded its business scope by adding the management of hedge funds (“alternative invest- ment” henceforth) to its existing business of managing private equity funds (“PEF” henceforth), thereby contributing to Woori Financial Group’s scale-out in the IB sector as the private equity asset management company of the Group Woori Private Equity Asset Management will continue quantitative and qual- itative growth as a PEF management company that leads the industry by pre- senting the best investment value and realizing customer satisfaction. 2019 Performance In 2019, Woori Private Equity Asset Management achieved quantitative and qualitative growth by discovering and promoting various investment businesses under the goal of maximizing fund management performance and expanding the scope of its business. As the company was selected to undertake fiduciary management for KDB and Korea Growth Investment Corp, the PEF Depart- ment accordingly built two blind funds – one at the end of 2018 (Woori-Shinyoung Growth-Cap Private Equity Fund I, KRW 163 billion) and another in May 2019 (Woori-Q Corporate Restructuring Private Equity Fund, KRW 155.1 billion). It then went on to execute four investments in the excellent investees it discovered. The Asset Management Department ventured out of mainly investing in domestic SOC projects and expanded into the overseas development infrastructure, overseas real estate and innovative growth support funds, further boosting its profitability. Part 1. Successful Investment Executions by the PEF Department The PEF Department manages three funds as of end of 2019, with a total capital commitment of KRW 361.6 billion. In 2019, main focus was executing investments for the two existing blind funds. In particular, for the Woori-Shinyoung Growth-Cap Private Equity Fund I, which was developed as Woori Private Equity Asset Management and which became the fiduciary manager for KDB, it executed investments selectively in enterprises with technological prowess and growth potential. The department did so in various sectors that encompass advertising media, real estate platforms, security and anti-wiretapping device manufacturing, while generating outstanding investment performance by enhancing the value for investees. Furthermore, 60.3 percent of the total capital commitment was executed at the end of March 2020. Such remarkable records in carrying out in- vestments laid the foundation to foster more blind funds going forward.

In 2019, profitability was improved as the department successfully diversified its business by ex- panding overseas investments that display both stability and profitability, and the average rate of the management fees climbed 119.2 percent year-on-year. Moreover, as it ensures thorough man- agement of ex-ante and ex-post risks, not a single investment has incurred a loss since the launch Growth of Average Rate of Management Fees YoY +119.2% 2019 2018 of the business. 2020 Plans Woori Private Equity Asset Management will continue to grow in quantitative and qualitative terms in 2020, with the aim to leap towards becoming the industry-leading asset management company by offering the best investment value and customer satisfaction. The PEF Department will maximize return on investment by enhancing the values of investees that compose the portfolio of the two blind funds, while making more investments to generate the best results. In addition, it will secure position as a leading player that drives the domestic PEF market by pushing ahead to foster another blind fund of around KRW 300 billion in volume by attracting investments from major institutions. The Alternative Investment Department plans to broaden assets under management by discov- ering new businesses to invest in, including overseas infrastructure and real estate. The depart- ment will also produce stable investment performance with the existing business by thoroughly managing investment ex-post. The Alternative Investment Department also plans to foster a new fund amounting at around KRW 300 billion, which will bring accumulated commitments to KRW 1.5 trillion within 2020. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 WOORI GLOBAL ASSET MANAGEMENT Woori Global Asset Management 087 Woori Global Asset Management started off as Allianz Global Investors and grew into a global asset management company with approximately KRW 9 trillion in assets under its management at the end of 2019. Woori Global Asset Management became an affiliate of Woori Financial Group in December 2019. On top of its existing strength in stocks, bonds and overseas fund of funds, the company broadened its business scope into the alternative investment market by establishing the Global Investment Unit and Alternative Investment Unit to handle investments in infrastructure, real estate and acquisition financing.

Sustainable 2019 Performance Smart Investing Multilateral In 2003, Woori Global Asset Management launched the very first fund of funds in Korea, that was based on the sophisticated asset management methodologies of the German Allianz Group, that invested overseas. Since then, Woori Global Asset Management has been spearheading the market by taking the lead in launching a wide range of overseas investment products. In 2019, the company expanded product line-up in step with customer demand by launching USD-de- nominated overseas bond funds and unhedged funds, firmly entrenching its leadership position in overseas bond funds. Furthermore, it broadened strategic partnerships with reputable asset management companies overseas by launching the Woori G. Artisan Global Opportunities Fund in late 2019 with Artisan Partners - a US company with a stellar track record in global stock asset man- Responsible agement. Moreover, as the alternative investment market has recently been posting rapid growth, Woori Global Asset Management selected alternative investments as a new growth business and estab- lished the Global Investment Unit and Alternative Investment Unit. They focus on preemptively discovering investment opportunities in reliably profitable alternative investment assets, in Korea and abroad, from which they can expect value appreciation and consistent yields. To this end, the Global Investment Unit and Alternative Investment Unit reinforced operation systems and sourc- ing channels and also developed and launched products in the fields of domestic and overseas acquisition finance, real estate and infrastructure.

Overview After establishing Woori Financial Group, Inc. on January 11 2019, Woori Financial Group Inc. acquired two asset management companies (Woori Asset Management Corp. and Woori Global Asset Management Co., Ltd.) and a real estate trust company (Woori Asset Trust Co., Ltd.). In addition, Woori Card Co., Ltd. and Woori Investment Bank Co., Ltd., which were subsidiaries of Woori Bank, were incorporated as Group subsidiaries, widening the business portfolio and solidifying the Group system. Four percent of the shares in mutual ownership issued in the process of launching the holding company and incorporating subsidiaries were sold to Fubon Life Insurance – a Taiwanese major financial company. As such, despite harsh financial conditions, Woori Financial Group was able to complete the selling of shares, driven by thorough preparation and aggressive endeavors to attract investors, shedding any issues regarding share overhang and stabilizing the Group’s governance. Furthermore, Woori Financial Group purchased the Woori Financial Namsan Tower across the street from the main office building of Woori Bank. Some of the Group affiliates have relocated to the Tower, giving impetus to building the “Namsan Woori Financial Town.” In terms of financial performance, Woori Financial Group Inc. realized a net income of KRW 2.0038 trillion on a consolidated basis in 2019 (Net Income Attributable to Controlling Interests: KRW 1.8722 trillion). In 2019, the business environment in the financial industry was generally strained in general as the US-China trade conflicts continued, on, triggering a global recession and causing central banks in the US and other nations to lower interest rates, which also pushed down market rates. Nevertheless, Woori Financial Group realized strong performance with an improved profit structure by growing assets, mainly in reliably profitable corporate loans and expanding core deposits, while further enhancing asset soundness, that which was already one of the best in the industry. In terms of profitability, the decline in market rates and fiercer competition for deposits brought on by the new LDR rule pushed down NIM (0.10%p on the Group basis, 0.08%p on the Bank basis). Even so, a balanced growth of financially sound corporate loans and household loans bolstered interest- bearing assets, as net interest income climbed 4.3% over the previous year (2018 Woori Bank consolidated basis, same applied henceforward) to KRW 5.8937 trillion. Non-interest income dropped 1.3% y-o-y to KRW 1.0466 trillion, but net fees and commissions income, which is core non- interest income, stood at a solid KRW 1.1026 trillion, mainly driven by the asset management business. General and administrative expenses slightly movedinched upwards due to general expenses during the initial stage of establishing the holding company and wages for new subsidiaries. Going forward, however, the CI ratio will be robustly managed with efficient channels and business strategies. In asset quality, Woori Financial Group recorded an NPL ratio of 0.45% and delinquency ratio of 0.33% on the Group basis – the lowest level in the industry. This was possible as Woori Financial Group improved portfolio by boosting the share of financially sound assets and by proactively writing off bad debt and preemptively managing risk to restrain non-performing loans. In terms of capital adequacy, Woori Financial Group applies the standardized approach in calculating capital adequacy ratios, this being its first year as a holding company. At end-2019, BIS total capital ratio of the Group was 11.89%, which was above the regulatory requirement of 10.5%. Woori Financial Group is also strenuously actively striving to enhance capital adequacy by issuing capital securities and boosting high-quality assets. At present, review is underway for the approval of the internal ratings-based (IRB) approach. In October 2019, major subsidiary Woori Bank acquired the approval to switch to the IRB approach. The capital adequacy ratio is expected to be enhanced once Woori Financial Group Inc. acquires the said approval. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 091 Meanwhile, as the growth of the domestic financial market becomes stagnant, there is an increasing need to diversify the revenue base by making inroads into overseas markets. At the end of 2019, the Group owned a total of 474 global networks in 23 nations and is still aggressively actively venturing into other markets. Endeavors to boost global businesses with an aim to restructure domestic-centered revenue base led to a global business net income of KRW 224 billion, a 15.8% increase y-o-y, accounting for more than 10% of total profits. In step with the growth of digital finance in Southeast Asia, Woori Financial Group will further advance locally specialized mobile banking services and accelerate qualitative growth based on global risk management.

It seems that recovery will all depend on when the outbreak subsides, but concern of another global recession is looming as the World Health Organization has recently declared COVID-19 a pandemic. The Federal Reserve lowered its benchmark interest rate to 1.5%, subsequently, and many other nations are rolling out liquidity expansion policies, which are likely to take a toll on the profitability of banks. In addition, the creation of an innovate digital finance environment by open banking services or third-party online-only banks indicate that Woori Financial Group faces ever fiercer competition with not only other financial institutions but with ICT companies. Provided, Woori Financial Group plans to solidify existing business prowess by presenting customer-centric comprehensive financial solutions and spearhead changes and innovations in new areas such as digital finance, thereby proactively discovering new growth engines. Moreover, in the second year into the Group system, Woori Financial Group will continue to carry out strategic M&As with capital banks, savings banks and securities firms to expand non-banking lineup. Woori Financial Group will also create synergy by bolstering the competitiveness of newly incorporated subsidiaries and boosting collaboration among Group affiliates, in order to discover new business opportunities.

Meanwhile, corporate loans increased by KRW 3.2 trillion and household loans by KRW 6 trillion, with each asset category assuming a similar share out of total as the year before.

Credit card usage is increasing, driven by a growing membership pool, aligned business with Woori Bank and a bold entry into the simple payment market. Woori Card also continues to expand its financial assets (long-term card loan) based on high-value customers. In addition, as part of efforts to develop new businesses to diversify the revenue base, Woori Card has been operating installment, lease and credit loan businesses since 2016, while continuously expanding its sources of long-term income within the regulatory leverage ratio (600%) of credit card companies. Woori Investment Bank recorded total assets of KRW 3.4 trillion at end of 2019, which is KRW 0.7 trillion (or 26.7%) higher than the previous year. The growth was mainly attributable to continued increase of financially sound loan transaction partners and to affiliated business with Woori Bank, in accordance with the plan to expand the loan business. Consequently, loans in KRW surged by KRW 380.1 billion (or 46%) y-o-y. Woori Investment Bank also took on bonds management in full-swing, recording a KRW 487.3 billion (or 90.2%) growth y-o-y in public bonds and financial bonds. Woori Investment Bank will continue to roll out balanced asset growth strategies, taking into account risk management and profitability. As of end-2019, Woori Asset Trust has KRW 27.5 trillion in assets under management, which is KRW 3.9 trillion higher than the year before, in terms of the face value amount. Total assets stood at KRW 139.8 billion, recording a y-o-y growth of KRW 26 billion (or 23%). In 2019, real estate regulations were reinforced and the economy was in a downturn, which pushed up the volume of unsold new property developments. As a result, new order placements in the industry generally declined, as major companies with main lines of business in loan-type land trust downsized their businesses amid surging bad debt write-offs and widespread risks. On the other hand, as Woori Asset Trust focuses on non-loan type products, including management-type land trust, collateral trust and agency business, its new order placement and revenue increased in 2019. On top of its solid business foundation, Woori Asset Management plans to build the framework for full-fledged growth as a subsidiary of the Woori Financial Group Inc. by venturing into the business of management-type land trusts backed by completion guarantees. In the mid-to-long term, Woori Asset Management also aims to continue its growth trend by developing new businesses. As of end of 2019, in net asset value (NAV) terms, Woori Asset Management is entrusted to manage KRW 19.2 trillion, which is similar to the 2018 year-end level. With the interest rates falling since 2019, AUM in domestic bond funds increased, but as interest rates climbed since August, the competitiveness of bond-type products has weakened and AUM therein declined. As market volatility grows, Woori Asset Management will expand its new lineup of MMF, index and EMP products, thereby facilitating the inflow of funds from institutional investors and private equity. Woori Asset Management set the goal of boosting the AUM by KRW 4.3 trillion in its face value amount. To this end, Woori Asset Management is diversifying new sales channels, expanding its new product line-up, advancing research-based management processes and performance evaluation systems, bolstering preemptive risk management and creating synergetic effects with Group affiliates.

The net interest income amounted to KRW 5,894 billion, net fees and commissions income to KRW 1,103 billion and operating income after credit loss expenses and general and administrative expenses to KRW 2,800 billion. Pursuant to the conversion into a holding company structure, net income attributable to non-controlling interests of KRW 165 billion is reflective of dividends to hybrid securities.

The main reason for the fall in net income can be attributed to the accounting loss of KRW 508.8 billion in relation to the transfer of shares from seven subsidiaries, including Woori Card, to the holding company. Meanwhile, the operating income of 2019 was KRW 2.592 trillion, up KRW 170 billion y-o-y. The decline in market rates and fiercer competition for deposits with the implementation of the new LDR rule pushed down NIM 0.08%p. Even so, net interest income was up KRW 176 billion from 2018 to KRW 5.317 trillion, on the back of the growth of interest-bearing assets. Non-interest income increased KRW 38 billion y-o-y to KRW 887 billion, with net fees and commissions income climbing KRW 61 billion and net gain on available-for- sale (AFS) financial assets (gains on sales of loans in KRW) jumping KRW 40 billion, while securities income maintained the level of the last year. FX, derivatives and other operating income altogether recorded a decline of KRW 65 billion y-o-y. Net interest income was up 3.4% y-o-y, non-interest income 4.4% y-o-y, and continued efforts to raise cost efficiency contained the growth of general and administrative expenses to just KRW 10 billion, or 0.3%, y-o-y to KRW 3.494 trillion. Consequently, the operating income of 2019 posted a y-o-y growth of 7%. Impairment losses due to credit loss was KRW 118 billion, up KRW 33 billion from the year before. This is mainly due to the decline in the reversal of massive allowance for credit loss relating to Kumho Tire and STX Group in 2018, despite the sustained decrease in ordinary bad debt expenses driven by efforts to improve asset soundness. Woori Bank has been managing asset soundness and bad debt expenses by boosting the share of financially sound loans, continuously monitoring and preemptively managing industries of interest including shipbuilding, construction and shipping and stringently managing risks. Driven by these endeavors, its NPL ratio in 2019 improved to the lowest-ever level of 0.4%. In 2020, as economic uncertainties are expected to continue at home and abroad, the business environment is anticipated to be rough. However, based on robust asset soundness, Woori Bank will strive to generate stable profits through its meticulous management of risks and customer-centric innovation. 3) Woori Card Category Credit Card Payment Volume Operating Revenue Net Income (Unit: KRW in millions) 2019 (7th Term) 2018 (6th Term) 2017 (5th Term) 82,649,489 1,368,140 114,196 76,357,503 1,386,707 1,386,707 73,833,473 1,755,810 92,734 Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsFinancial ReviewManagement’s Discussion and Analysis 096 As credit card merchant fees were lowered, profits were down by KRW 95.6 billion in 2019. However, Woori Card overachieved initial target for net income with KRW 114.2 billion, thanks to financial asset expansion, cost-cutting efforts and non-recurring factors relating to the BC Card litigation. Overall business conditions for the credit card industry are expected to continue worsen in 2020, amid contracted private consumption due to slow growth, a near-mature credit card business environment, rising household debt and lower merchant fees. More threats are posed by fiercer competition from other industries such as ICT companies expanding their businesses in the payment and settlement market and online-only banks planning to launch credit card businesses. Woori Card, however, plans to focus on boosting its revenue by thoroughly managing the profitability of each business and efficiently controlling costs. In addition, Woori Card will expand profitable assets mainly through high-value members by reinforcing data analytics and advancing marketing efforts. Woori Card will also readjust portfolio to attract new members and improve cost structure. Woori Card will secure the foundation to continuously create income by boldly boosting the efficiency of business management. Woori Card will actively cut costs by raising company-wide business efficiency and bolster asset soundness by thoroughly managing risk. Furthermore, in order to secure the engine of new growth, Woori Card will make utmost efforts to align with the global networks of Woori Bank and expand synergetic businesses with Group affiliates under Woori Financial Group Inc. 4) Woori Investment Bank (Unit: KRW in millions) Category Operating Revenue Operating Expenses Operating Income Net Income before Income Tax Expense Net Income Total Comprehensive Income Note 1) Based on K-IFRS separate financial statements 2019 (48th Term) 2018 (47th Term) 2017 (46th Term) 201,329 145,790 55,539 53,945 54,981 53,719 202,168 170,086 32,081 31,732 32,388 32,369 183,595 161,446 22,149 21,890 20,637 20,824 In 2019, Woori Investment Bank recorded an operating income of KRW 55.5 billion, 73.1% (or KRW 23.5 billion) higher than the year before. Although an increase in loans pushed up interest income, FX trading income declined y-o-y, bringing down operating revenue 0.4% (or KRW 800 million) from the previous year to KRW 201.3 billion. In terms of operating expenses, the growth of deposits mainly led to higher interest expenses. General and administrative expenses climbed from KRW 26.1 billion in 2018 to KRW 31.2 billion in 2019, as the workforce expanded during that period. The net income after non-operating income (expense) and income tax expenses amounted to KRW 55 billion, up 69.8% (or KRW 22.6 billion) from KRW 32.4 billion in 2018. Increases in deferred tax assets led to income tax benefits of KRW 700 million and KRW 1 billion in 2018 and 2019, respectively. Woori Investment Bank is developing and implementing vigorous growth plans with an aim to become a competitive non-banking subsidiary of the Group as well as a core subsidiary in charge of financial investments. 5) Woori Asset Trust Category Operating Revenue Operating Expenses Operating Income (Loss) Net Income from Continuing Operations before Income Tax Expense(Loss) Net Income(Loss) Total Comprehensive Income(Loss) (Unit: KRW in millions) 2019 2018 2017 75,191 34,037 41,154 40,876 30,980 30,443 63,666 22,649 41,016 41,202 31,495 31,120 53,848 18,592 35,257 35,224 27,010 27,218 Note) 2017, 2018: Based on K-IFRS separate financial statements, 2019: Based on K-IFRS consolidated financial statements and controlling interest Woori Asset Trust observed an increase of 18% (or KRW 11.5 billion) y-o-y in operating revenue, which reached KRW 75.2 billion in 2019. Despite the negative outlook on the domestic real estate market, operating revenue increased 22% (or KRW 7.4 billion) in land trusts and other trust businesses, while interest income jumped 45% (or KRW 1.4 billion) thanks to increased lending to trust accounts driven by expansion in loan-type land trusts. Dividends also increased by 1,186% (or KRW 2.4 billion) due to the liquidation of Saengbo 4th Real Estate Investment Trust Company. Operating expenses moved up 50% y-o-y (or KRW 11.4 billion) to KRW 34 billion. General and administrative expenses including payroll increased by 42% (or KRW 7.5 billion) as the sales organization was realigned and reinforced with a larger workforce. Meanwhile, lending to trust accounts also increased due to expansion in loan-type land trusts, increasing loan write-offs by 749% (KRW 3.5 billion). WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 097 Woori Asset Trust had one of the highest ROAs in the industry in 2019, at 25.2%. Real estate trust revenue is generally leveling off as trust fees continue to fall and three new securities firms have entered the market and are fueling competition. Woori Asset Trust plans to gradually expand its presence in the market for management-type land trusts backed by a completion guarantee, which has a lower risk relative to loan-type land trusts and higher fees compared to other trust products. In addition, Woori Asset Trust will pursue mutually beneficial success with Group affiliates. As such, the revenue and profitability of Woori Asset Trust is expected to grow. 6) Woori Asset Management (Unit: KRW in millions) Category Operating Revenue Operating Expenses Operating Income (Loss) Net Income from Continuing Operations before Income Tax Expense Net Income (Loss) Total Comprehensive Income (Loss) Note) Based on K-IFRS separate financial statements 2019 2018 2017 24,990 14,754 10,236 10,236 8,001 8,822 23,999 15,584 8,415 8,415 5,991 5,743 28,110 17,837 10,273 10,273 7,110 7,258 Woori Asset Management recorded an operating revenue of KRW 25 billion in 2019, up 4% (or KRW 1 billion) y-o-y. With bond rates declining, AUM of publicly offered bond funds increased, pushing up investment trust fees. However, as interest rates climbed in the second half of the year, AUM curved downwards and discretionary funds were partially withdrawn, pushing down fees on discretionary investments. All in all, net fees and commissions income remained similar to those of the previous year, but the management of inherent funds boosted gains on valuation and sales of securities by 107% (or KRW 1.1 billion) y-o-y. Operating expenses decreased by KRW 830 million (or 5.3%) y-o-y to KRW 14.7 billion. Losses on valuation and sales of securities declined by KRW 1.1 billion over the previous year, while general and administrative expenses went up KRW 230 million as the workforce expanded. Net income after non-operating income and income tax expenses reached KRW 8 billion, which is 36% (or KRW 2.1 billion) higher than the KRW 5.9 billion of 2018. The growth in net income drove up income tax expenses by 16% (or KRW 380 million) y-o-y. The ROA of Woori Asset Management was a solid 7.41% as of 2019. Although revenue in the management industry in general is plateauing as management fees decline and deregulation spurs specialized PE management companies that fuel competition, Woori Asset Management expects its AUM to grow, based on synergetic effects created with Group affiliates.

Woori Financial Group Inc. is lowering its substandard or below ratio from 0.52% in Q1 to 0.47% in Q2, 0.46% in Q3 and 0.45% in Q4. Not only the substandard or below ratio but the actual amount of such loans is also declining.

As such, Woori Bank is fully prepared to cover for additional losses should they be incurred. Corporate loans extended by Woori Bank was KRW 120 trillion in 2018 with a substandard and below ratio of 0.75%. In 2019, the numbers were KRW 123 trillion and 0.57%, respectively. As such, Woori Bank has been cutting its substandard and below ratio drastically by boosting the share of financially sound assets and by proactively writing off bad debt and preemptively managing risk to restrain non-performing loans. Household loans recorded a total of KRW 113 trillion and a substandard and below ratio of 0.25% in 2018. In 2019, total household loans amounted to KRW 120 trillion and the substandard and below ratio declined slightly to 0.23% (based on NPL criteria of FSS). As sufficient provisions have been set aside for substandard or below loans to borrowers undergoing debt restructuring through work-out or rehabilitation procedures, additional losses are unlikely to be incurred. These companies are proactively pursuing to normalize their business and if unsuccessful, they are contemplating on closing their business through asset disposition. Woori Bank is also vigilantly monitoring risk signals from other possible NPLs, thereby preemptively responding to economic uncertainties at home and abroad. Woori Card has seen its delinquency ratio decline consistently from 1.82% in 2017 to 1.78% in 2018 and 1.61% in 2019. By fine-tuning risk management, bolstering competencies to recover loans and constantly removing bad debt, Woori Card has been maintaining its delinquency ratio at a healthy level. Woori Investment Bank has been striving to improve asset soundness since 2013. Bad loans that correspond to the numerator when calculating the ratio of asset soundness were reduced by recovery, sale or write-off, while financially sound assets that correspond to the denominator were boosted, resulting in improved asset soundness ratio overall. Furthermore, risk management has been reinforced in order to prevent non-performing assets. Consequently, the ratio of new non-performing assets has dropped significantly since 2013. Woori Investment Bank is also boosting both preemptive and ex-post risk management. Loans of Woori Asset Trust, including lending to trust accounts, increased y-o-y by 68% (or KRW 30.1 billion), driven by the growth in loan-type land trusts. However, substandard and below ratio ones, including lending to trust accounts also increased 25.65% (or KRW 22.2 billion), due to the strained real estate market in Korea. Woori Asset Management is bolstering preemptive risk management and internal controls inspection competencies as the core comprehensive asset management company of the Group. To this end, Woori Asset Management is selecting and managing the investment universe of domestic stocks and bonds more meticulously, while building a risk management system based on credit ratings of overseas bonds and establishing an internal controls system on new products. Woori Asset Management also bolstered inspection on overseas/alternative investment processing procedures. (4) Capital Adequacy 1) Woori Financial Group, Inc.

Additional Tier 1 Capital was KRW 3.466 trillion, up KRW 318 billion y-o-y, which was driven by the issuance of new hybrid securities taking into account the redemption (exercise of call option) of previously issued ones. Going forward, Woori Bank will continuously reduce the volume of its hybrid securities, considering the cost of issuance. Tier 2 Capital amounted to KRW 3.527 trillion, down KRW 301 billion from the previous year. The decline follows a reduction in the volume of subordinated bonds recognized as equity, but the reduction was minimized through the issuance of new subordinated bonds. Total BIS Capital was KRW 24.314 trillion, which was KRW 63 billion higher than the year before. In 2019, risk-weighted assets increased KRW 2.919 trillion (or 1.9%) y-o-y to KRW 157.89 trillion. This rate of increase is smaller than that of total assets on a consolidated basis (2.3%) and is reflective of the vigorous efforts to improve capital adequacy by boosting the share of financially sound assets and reducing potential non-performing assets. Common Equity Tier 1 ratio, Tier 1 capital ratio and BIS capital adequacy ratio in 2019 fell by 0.18%p, 0.01%p and 0.25%p, respectively, from the year before to 10.97%, 13.17% and 15.40%. This is because the dividends of Woori Bank, as the major subsidiary of the Group, were increased y-o-y to secure sufficient funding for the dividends of the holding company in the initial days of its incorporation. Woori Bank will enhance its capital adequacy by continuing to realize profits, paying out adequate levels of dividends and expanding capital. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 101 Woori Card had an adjusted capital ratio (ACR) of 18.33% at end-2019, which was above what is required by the Management Guidance (8% or above) as per Supervisory Regulations on Specialized Credit Financial Business. Woori Investment Bank had a strong BIS capital adequacy ratio of 12.86% at end-2019 (requirement by the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act: 8%). Woori Investment Bank is expected to see its BIS capital adequacy ratio fall with the growth of its assets under management. However, even after reflecting the asset expansion plan for 2020 under the business management plan, the ratio is set to maintain a stable level above 12%. In addition, the Total BIS Capital in December 2019 consisted of KRW 327.1 billion in Tier 1 Capital and KRW 11.1 billion in Additional Tier 1 Capital. With such a high Tier 1 percentage, there is great potential for asset expansion or recapitalization through an Additional Tier 1, if needed. Woori Asset Trust had an equity capital of KRW 94.4 billion, which was 944.3% of the KRW 10 billion in minimum equity required of the company by the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act and the Enforcement Decree thereof. The net operating capital ratio was 1,398%, up 440%p y-o-y, which was the largest gain among 11 existing trust companies last year.

C. Business Rationalization (1) Alteration and Reorganization of Business Groups 1) Woori Financial Group, Inc. New organization established to boost competitiveness in IT (Feb. 2019) ① The ICT Planning Division was established to function as the IT control tower of Woori Financial Group Inc. The ICT Planning Group was organized in February 2019 to oversee strategies in the areas of ICT planning, digital strategies and information security. This organization enabled a preemptive response to the financial innovation driven by fintech and the fourth industrial revolution, while bolstering the expertise and competitiveness in ICT. New organizations established to reinforce innovative growth and fintech support (May 2019) ② In May 2019, the Future Finance Department and the Digital Innovation Department were established: the former with an aim to systematically support companies with innovative growth potential and build a long-term sustainable growth system for the Group; and the latter targeting the efficient discovery and nurturing of fintech companies. Woori Financial Group has since been carrying out such efforts to secure future growth engines at the Group level and to provide systematic and intensive support to companies with innovative growth potential. Reorganization to bolster Group collaboration and synergy (Jul. 2019) ③ In July 2019, Woori Financial Group, Inc. implemented a system of Main Business Units, under which the four growth engines of asset management, global business, CIB and digital business that previously operated at each affiliate level were integrated at the Group level for systematic management. Based on the system of collaboration among Group affiliates, responsible management and efficient decision making are expected to maximize synergy. Furthermore, Woori Financial Group now has a foundation for a collaborative system that can prepare for the expansion of business portfolio. Reorganization including units (Feb. 2020) ④ Units were established in Feb. 2020 to systematically manage businesses carried out by the Group and to reinforce responsible management. Woori Financial Group also newly established a consumer protection organization as part of innovative measures to gain customer trust. In the second year into the holding company system, Woori Financial Group will further solidify structure as a comprehensive financial group by systematically managing major businesses. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsFinancial ReviewManagement’s Discussion and Analysis 102 2) Woori Bank In order to reinforce a swift decision making system in step with changes in the business environment, Woori Bank reorganized its operations to center on group leaders. Also, in order to establish a customer-centered asset management business culture, Woori Bank established an integrated bank-wide asset management strategy and ensured that the role of each group was reflected in their names. Woori Bank also newly established a dedicated organization to bolster expertise and increase the independence of customer protection. The previous “unit-group-division” system was reorganized to a “group-division” structure, thereby bolstering a system of autonomous responsible management and swift decision making that allows a timely response to changes in the financial environment. In addition, the “WM Group” was renamed “Asset Management Group” to reflect bank-wide asset management strategies into the name and to entrench a business culture of customer-centric asset management. Furthermore, the “Consumer Protection Group” was newly established in order to promote the rights and interests of financial consumers, while the previous “Consumer & Brand Group” was reorganized into the “Consumer Protection Group” and the “Public Relations and Brand Group”. The “Consumer Protection Group” has been separated as an independent organization directly under the CEO to function as the control tower of consumer protection that oversees all the groups of Woori Bank. 3) Woori Card Woori Card endeavors to aggressively and systematically respond to the changing business environment. Woori Card boosted focus on core functions and speeded up decision-making by streamlining organization through functional readjustments among departments. With new and dedicated Big Data organization, Woori Card is also pressing ahead with customer management by advancing marketing efforts to a higher level based on in-depth customer analysis, reinforcing the loyalty of active members and boosting usage among inactive or dormant members. In addition, Woori Card is building digital competencies with newly established and expanded digital marketing organization in order to respond to the ever-growing simple payment market and digital finance ecosystem. 4) Woori Investment Bank Woori Investment Bank restructured its organization with an aim to diversify the revenue base and reinforce risk management by newly establishing the CIB Unit, under which CIB, DCM and venture finance organizations were realigned to maximize synergy creation among Group affiliates. Woori Investment Bank is also pressing ahead to raise work efficiency by exchanging the site and workforce with Woori Bank. In addition, the FICC Finance Department was newly established to head the bonds management and arrangements and a department in charge of ex-post management of loans was created to bolster risk management. 5) Woori Asset Trust Woori Asset Trust restructured its organization under the leadership of co-CEOs, aiming to invigorate synergetic effects created by the business management sector and the business promotion sector. The Business Planning Department was newly established to build a growth engine for promoting new business by reinforcing capacity in strategic planning and financial management. Furthermore, a Risk Management Officer and a Compliance Officer were appointed to executive positions (with new, dedicated subordinate organizations) to bolster internal and external risk management as well as internal controls. Woori Asset Trust also realigned itself to improve the entrustment review system to take on trust businesses more selectively. In addition, efforts are being made to be reapproved as a REITs asset management company within the year. 6) Woori Asset Management The Global Investment Management Unit is building a line-up of global fund products that continue to attract the interests of domestic investors including lifecycle funds, Global EMP Asset Allocation Fund and global bond balanced funds. (2) Voluntary Early Retirement Program and Other Matters Since 2005, Woori Bank has implemented an Outplacement Services Program that serves as amended and upgraded ERP program. The Outplacement Services Program (supporting individuals who are exiting the business) aims to resolve the bottleneck in promotions and improve the bank’s human resource structure while allowing employees to find new opportunities during the second chapter of their lives. In particular, the bank operates a support center and various programs for employees who plan to change jobs to provide systematic support for a new career or post-retirement life.

Woori Bank also checks for excessive shortages of liquid assets through periodic stress testing.

As such, Woori Bank establishes and manages bank-wide measures to preemptively mitigate and efficiently manage liquidity risks. 3) Woori Card Woori Card performs funding based on the principles of diversifying sourcing channels, maintaining an adequate maturity structure and securing liquidity, in order to maintain a stable funding structure.

Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsFinancial ReviewManagement’s Discussion and Analysis 116 (2) Credit Risk Credit risk represents ‘the potential financial losses that the Bank may incur when the counterparty becomes insolvent or rejects transactions within the period provided in the contract.’ The goal of credit risk management is to maintain the bank’s credit risk exposure to a permissible degree and to optimize its rate of return considering such credit risks. (a) Management of Credit Risk Woori Financial Group Inc. measures credit risk by taking into account the possibility of non-performance of contract obligations by a customer or counterparty, a counterparty’s exposure to insolvency and the rate of loss upon insolvency. For assets subject to credit risk management, internal capital is measured and utilized as a management indicator by accounting for risk and expected/unexpected loss. The Group allocates ceilings of internal capital to each subsidiary. Based on the allocated ceiling of the internal capital, each subsidiary then considers its business characteristics and annual financial goals to set and manage detailed ceilings for each business segment. Furthermore, loans are prevented from failing to perform and credit concentration risk is adequately controlled by monitoring large-scale exposures and credit portfolio. The Group Risk Management Committee and Risk Management Council meet on a monthly or quarterly basis to check and adequately manage credit risks of the Group and subsidiaries including the BIS ratio, liquidity and other management indicators, current status of exposure, compliance with ceilings, delinquency ratio and fluctuations in allowances. (b) Maximum Exposure Maximum exposure of financial assets to credit risk indicates the uncertainty of maximum volatility in the net value of the financial assets due to volatility in a particular risk factor, before considering the book value of collateral after allowances or other credit enhancement. Provided, the maximum exposure to credit risk of derivatives is the on-balance sheet fair value amount, that of payment guarantee is the maximum amount payable upon claims by the principal debtor pursuant to the guarantee contract, and that of loan agreement is undrawn commitment. (3) Market Risk Market risks refer to potential losses that can be incurred from trading positions of a financial institution according to changes in market factors, such as interest rates, stock prices, and exchange rates. Market risks arise from changes in interest rates and exchange rates on unsettled financial instruments. Thus, all contracts are exposed to a certain level of volatility according to interest rates, credit spread, exchange rates, and equity securities prices. (a) Market Risk Management Market risk management refers to the entire process of identifying the sources of risks by risk factor on the trading and non-trading sectors, measuring the scale of market risks, and assessing the adequacy of the scale of market risks being taken, in order to make decisions to avert, take or mitigate risks and carry out such decisions. Woori Financial Group Inc. uses both a standard approach and an internal model (Woori Bank) to measure market risks and the Risk Management Committee allocates the market risk capital. The risk management departments of the Group and subsidiaries manage detailed ceilings including risk limit and loss limit of trading positions. The result of risk management is reported regularly to the Risk Management Committee. (b) Analysis of Market Risk Sensitivity Woori Financial Group Inc. performs separate market risk sensitivity analyses for trading and non-trading segments. For the trading segment, Group-wide market risk is managed by the standard method of the FSS, while Woori Bank measures Value at Risk (VaR) to manage and measure market risk in order to predict the market risk of its trading positions and the maximum loss expected. Based on statistical methods, VaR estimates potential losses in the portfolio that may be incurred by unfavorable volatility in the market at a certain time in the present or future. VaR indicates the estimated maximum loss at a 99 percent confidence level. Therefore, statistically speaking, it is possible (1% probability) that the actual loss turns out to be larger than what was estimated by VaR. The actual losses incurred are monitored on a regular basis for the purpose of reviewing the feasibility of assumptions, variables and factors used when calculating VaR. This approach, however, does not prevent losses in excess of the limit when there is greater market volatility. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 117 For the non-trading segment, Woori Bank manages and measures risk by utilizing simulations on net interest income (NII) and net present value (NPV) to calculate changes in the NII and the economic value of equity (EVE). NII is a revenue-centered indicator that shows short-term changes in revenue caused by short-term changes in the interest rate and is calculated by deducting the cost of servicing interest-burdened liabilities from the revenues generated by interest-bearing assets. NPV is an indicator of risk from an economic value point of view caused by interest rate volatility and is measured by deducting the present value of liabilities from that of assets. Meanwhile, changes in the NII indicates changes due to interest rate volatility within a certain period (i.e., one year). Changes in the EVE indicates changes that can take place as interest rate volatility impacts the present value of assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items. Subsidiaries other than Woori Bank measures and manages risk by calculating interest rate Earnings at Risk (EaR) and interest rate VaR. Interest rate EaR refers to the estimated maximum changes to earnings manifested by the largest reduction in the NII that can be caused in a certain period (i.e., one year) by unfavorable volatility in the interest rate. Interest rate VaR refers to the estimated maximum loss that shows the maximum possible reduction in net asset value at a certain time in the present or future that can be caused by unfavorable volatility in the interest rate. (4) Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk refers to the risk of failing to perform the payment obligation at maturity on financial liabilities that consolidated companies bear. Liquidity risk management is aimed at preventing potential losses arising from a shortage of funds by effectively managing liquidity crunches caused by disparities in the maturity of assets and liabilities or unexpected outflow of funds. Products relevant to liquidity risk that recognized as financial liabilities on the consolidated financial statements are subject to liquidity risk management. In managing liquidity risk, Woori Financial Group Inc. groups assets and liabilities according to a different ALM chart of accounts, then determines the maturity gaps and gap ratios from cash flow statements by time group (time to maturity or contract periods). Based on the outcomes, Woori Financial Group maintains the gap ratios within predetermined target ratios (limits). (5) Operational Risk Woori Financial Group defines operational risks as the potential risk of loss that could result from inadequate internal processes, personnel and systematic factors, as well as external factors. To reinforce competitiveness, reduce the amount of risk capital, enhance operational risk management competencies and prevent any unexpected incidents, Woori Bank has established an operational risk management system developed under Basel II. The objectiveness of operational risk management system has been tested internally and by an independent third party. The advanced measurement approach was submitted to and obtained approval from the FSS. (6) Capital Management Woori Financial Group Inc. complies with the capital adequacy standards put forth by financial supervisory bodies that are based on Basel III of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision under the Bank for International Settlements. These standards were introduced in Korea at the end of December, 2013. The capital adequacy ratio is calculated by dividing total capital by total risk-weighted assets, based on consolidated financial statements.

Matters Concerning Overseas Subsidiaries As the growth of domestic financial market remains stagnant, Woori Bank, which is the major subsidiary of Woori Financial Group Inc., has been building a global business base by expanding regional networks in Southeast Asia – a region of promising growth potential in terms of NIM, branch and financial inclusivity and economic growth rate. Woori Bank is expanding localization endeavors through M&As with local banks (Indonesia, the Philippines, Cambodia) and the conversion of existing branches into local subsidiaries (Vietnam), while seeking to diversify through entry into new businesses such as savings banks and non-banking finance by considering market characteristics. In addition, other than entering existing business segments, Woori Bank is also striving to continue pioneering into new markets by conducting various market surveys in order to discover new business. As of end of December 2019, Woori Financial Group Inc. has global networks reaching 474. Woori Financial Group Inc. will continue to pursue global business with its strategy to expand its customer and growth base by boosting the share of financially sound assets, reinforcing business competencies through various business models and raising global digital banking competency. Furthermore, Woori Financial Group is in the process of building a Group-wide system to support and manage global business by nurturing a pool of global professional reviewers and building a better organized risk management system. Through these endeavors, Woori Financial Group is also seeking to grow both quantitatively and qualitatively.

Korea BTL Infrastructure Fund Korea BTL Infrastructure Fund (“the Company”) is a collective investment vehicle as defined by the Act on Public-Private Partnerships in Infrastruc- ture and an investment company as per the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act. The major shareholder, Woori Bank, has commit- ted to invest a total of KRW 1.3 trillion in the Company under a purchase agreement valid until June 4th, 2036 (extendible for up to six years). As of end of December 2019, funds under management of the Company are fully financed by equity capital and the major shareholder, Woori Bank, has been executing equity investment through capital call since the incorporation of the Company. The Company currently invests in or extends loans to project concessionaires, concentrating on highly stable projects whose principal and interest of investment are either paid or compensated by the government. Invested projects include one BTO project, 43 BTL projects and 2 government cost compensation projects. Maintaining this ten- dency, investments will be made gradually with the outstanding commitment under the purchase agreement. The Company is maintaining a robust return on investment (ROI) (as of Dec 2019, capital is KRW 811.7 billion, ROI is 4.79% [internal rate of return since incorporation, assuming recovery of investment principal at end-2019]). Most invested assets are BTL projects whose principal and interest are tied to the yield on five-year government bonds and as such, ROI is likely to fluctuate with the bond yield. At the end of December 2018, ROI based on the same assumption was 4.95%, indicating a small decline over the year in 2019, owing to the decline in the yield of five–year government bonds. Currently, the Company is both making and redeeming investments. Following the recovery schedules for each invested project, the princi- pals of investment will be recovered quarterly over the duration of the fund, once the investment is complete. Depending on whether new investments will be executed by the Company, either a capital increase of the Company or a redemption on investment by shareholders will be carried out systematically.

Report on the Separate Financial Statements Audit Opinion We have audited the separate financial statements of Woori Financial Group (the “Company”), which comprise the separate statement of financial position as of December 31, 2019, and the separate statement of comprehensive income, separate statement of changes in equity and separate statement of cash flows, for the period from January 11, 2019 (date of incorporation) to December 31, 2019, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. In our opinion, the accompanying separate financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2019, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the period from January 11, 2019 (date of incorporation) to December 31, 2019 in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards (“K-IFRS”). Basis for Audit Opinion We conducted our audits in accordance with the Korean Standards on Auditing (“KSAs”). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements, including those related to independence, that are relevant to our audit of the separate financial statements in the Republic of Korea as required by prevailing audit regulations. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Key Audit Matters The key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the separate financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the separate financial statements as a whole, and in forming our audit opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 121 Impairment Losses of Subsidiary Investment Equities in compliance with K-IFRS 1036 ‘Impairment of Assets’ Key audit matter description As described in notes 2 and 9, the company accounts for its investment in subsidiaries by selecting the cost method in accordance with K-IFRS 1027 and assessing their potential for impairment. If there is any indication of objective impairment, the difference between the recoverable amount and the carrying amount of the subsidiary investment shares is recognized as impairment losses, and the recoverable amount is measured by calculating the estimated future cash flows based on the previous financial and operating plan data. The measure of recoverable amount of subsidiary investment shares uses discount rate, growth rate and expected economic indicators, and significant management judgment is involved in determining their adequacy. Given the high level of estimation and judgement of management, the audit of impairment assessment of subsidiary investment shares involves complex and subjective judgment by experts. Therefore, we selected the impairment loss assessment of subsidiaries' investment shares as the key audit matter. How the scope of our audit responded to the key audit matter Our audit procedures related to the assumptions and unobservable inputs used by management for the estimate of the recoverable amount included the following: - The effectiveness of the design and operation of internal controls related to the impairment assessment process, including the use of external experts by the company’s management, has been tested. - We verified the process of determining the rationale of the input variables used and the discount rate, growth rate, and expected economic indicators by using the shareholder cash flow discount method by engaging a fair value valuation specialist. - The recoverable amount was recalculated by considering the discount rate and future cash flows deemed appropriate with the fair value valuation specialist. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsSeparate Financial StatementsFinancial Review 122 Responsibilities of Management and the Those Charged with Governance for the Separate Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation of the accompanying separate financial statements in accordance with K-IFRS, and for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of separate financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the separate financial statements, management of the Company is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Separate Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the separate financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with KSAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these separate financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with KSAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also: - - - - - Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the separate financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. Conclude on the appropriateness of the management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the separate financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the separate financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the separate financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 123 We communicate with those charged with governance of the Company regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide those charged with governance of the Company with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements, including those related to independence, and to communicate with them all matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the separate financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor’s report is Tae Jin Jo. March 16, 2020 Notice to Readers This report is effective as of March 16, 2020 the auditors’ report date. Certain subsequent events or circumstances may have occurred between the auditors’ report date and the time the auditors’ report is read.

Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsSeparate Financial StatementsFinancial Review 130 - 2 - 2. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (1) Basis of presentation The Company’s separate financial statements are prepared in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards (“K-IFRS”). Significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the financial statements are described below. The Company is preparing its financial statements in accordance with the K-IFRS, and the separate financial statements are prepared in accordance with K-IFRS 1027 “Separate Financial Statements”. The financial statements of the parent, associate or joint venture represent the investment assets in a manner that is based on direct equity investments, not based on the reported performance and net assets of the investee. The financial statements are prepared at the end of each reporting period on the historical cost basis, except for certain non-current assets and financial assets that are either revalued or measured in fair value. Historical cost is generally measured at the fair value of consideration given to acquire assets. The financial statements of the company were approved with adjustments as of March 3, 2020 after the initial approval for the issuance as of February 7, 2020, and are planned to be finalized at the shareholder’s meeting on March 25, 2020. 1.1 It is believed that the following issued and revised standards that have been newly applied during the current term will not have a significant impact on the company. - - - - - - K-IFRS 2123 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments (Issued) K-IFRS 1109 Financial Instruments (Revised) K-IFRS 1028 Investment in Associates and Joint Ventures (Revised) K-IFRS 1019 Employee Benefits (Revised) K-IFRS 1115 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Revised) Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2015-2017 Cycle The annual improvements include partial amendments of K-IFRS 1012 ‘Income Tax,’ K-IFRS 1023 ‘Borrowing Cost,’ K-IFRS 1103 ‘Business Combination’ and K-IFRS 1111 ‘Joint Arrangements.’ 1.2 The details of K-IFRSs that have been issued and published as of the date of issue approval of the financial statements but have not yet reached the effective date, and which the Company has not applied at an earlier date are as follows: - - - Revised Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting Revised K-IFRS 1103 ‘Business Combinations’ Revised K-IFRS 1001 ‘Financial Statements Presentation’ and K-IFRS 1008 ‘Accounting policies, changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’ It is believed that the above revised standards will not have a significant impact on the company. (2) Investments in subsidiaries and Associates in separate financial statements The Company selects and processes the cost method in accordance with K-IFRS 1027 for investments in subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities, except for those classified as held for sale in accordance with K-IFRS 1105 ‘Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations’. Dividends received from subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities are recognized as dividend income when the right to receive dividends is established. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 3 - 131 (3) Revenue recognition 3.1 Revenue from contracts with customers The Company recognizes revenue when the Company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good or service to a customer. When a performance obligation is satisfied, the Company shall recognize as a revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to that performance obligation. The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties. 3.2 Revenues from sources other than contracts with customers Interest income on financial assets measured at FVTOCI and financial assets at amortized costs is measured using the effective interest method. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of debt securities (or group of financial assets) and of allocating the interest income over the expected life of the asset. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash flows to the instrument's initial total carrying amount over the expected period, or shorter if appropriate. Future cash flows include commissions and cost of reward points (limited to the primary component of effective interest rate) and other premiums or discounts that are paid or received between the contractual parties, and future cash flows exclude expected credit loss when calculating the effective interest rate. All contractual terms of a financial instrument are considered when estimating future cash flows. For purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, interest revenue is recognized by applying the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortized cost of the financial asset from initial recognition. Even if the financial asset is no longer impaired in the subsequent periods due to credit improvement, the basis of interest revenue calculation is not changed from amortized cost to unamortized cost of the financial assets. (4) Accounting for foreign currencies The Company’s separate financial statements are presented in Korean Won, which is the functional currency of the Company. At the end of each reporting period, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency at its prevailing exchange rates at the date. (5) Cash and cash equivalents The Company is classifying cash on hand, demand deposits, interest-earning deposits with original maturities of up to three months on acquisition date, and highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value as cash and cash equivalents. (6) Financial assets and financial liabilities The Company’s accounting policies in accordance with the newly adopted K-IFRS 1109 are as follows: 6.1 Financial assets A regular way purchase or sale of financial assets is recognized or derecognized on the trade or settlement date. A regular way purchase or sale is a purchase or sale of a financial asset under a contract whose term requires delivery of the asset within the time frame established generally by regulation or convention in the marketplace concerned. On initial recognition, financial assets are classified into financial assets at FVTPL, financial assets at FVTOCI, and financial assets at amortized cost. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsSeparate Financial StatementsFinancial Review 132 - 4 - 6.1.1 Business model The Company evaluates the way business is being managed, and the purpose of the business model for managing a financial asset best reflects the way information is provided to the management at its portfolio level. Such information considers the following: - The accounting policies and purpose specified for the portfolio, and the actual operation of such policies. This includes strategy of the management focusing on the receipt of contractual interest revenue, maintaining a certain level of interest income, matching the duration of financial assets and the duration of corresponding liabilities to obtain the asset, and outflow or realization of expected cash flows from disposal of assets. - The way the performance of a financial asset held under the business model is evaluated, and the way such evaluation is being reported to the management - The risk affecting the performance of the business model (and financial assets held under the business model), and the way such risk is being managed - The compensation plan for the management (e.g. whether the management is being compensated based on the fair value of assets or based on contractual cash flows received) - Frequency, amount, timing and reason for sale of financial assets in the past and forecast of future sale activities 6.1.2 Contractual cash flows The principal is defined to be the fair value of a financial asset at initial recognition. Interest is not only composed of consideration for the time value of money, consideration for the credit risk related to remaining principal at a certain period of time, and consideration for other cost (e.g. liquidity risk and cost of operation) and fundamental risk associated with lending, but also profit. When evaluating whether contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interests, the Company considers the contractual terms of the financial instrument. When a financial asset contains contractual conditions that modify the timing and amount of contractual cash flows, it is required to determine whether contractual cash flows that arise during the remaining life of the financial instrument due to such contractual condition are solely payments of principal and interest. The Company considers the following elements when evaluating the above: - Conditions that lead to modification of timing or amount of cash flows - Contractual terms that adjust contractual nominal interest, including floating rate features - Early payment features and maturity extension features - Contractual terms that limit the Company’s claim on cash flows arising from certain assets (e.g. non- recourse feature) 6.1.2.1 Financial assets at FVTPL The Company is classifying those financial assets that are not classified as either financial assets at amortized cost or financial assets at FVTOCI, and those designated to be measured at FVTPL, as financial assets at FVTPL. Financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fair value, and related profit or loss is recognized in net income. Transaction costs related to acquisition at initial recognition is recognized in net income immediately upon its occurrence. It is possible to designate a financial asset as financial asset at FVTPL if at initial recognition: (a) it is possible to remove or significantly reduce recognition or measurement mismatch that may otherwise have occurred if not for its designation as financial asset at FVTPL; (b) the financial asset forms part of the Company’s financial instrument group (A group composed of a combination of financial asset or liability), is measured at fair value and is being evaluated for its performance, and such information is provided internally; and (c) the financial asset is part of a contract that contains one or more of embedded derivatives, and is a hybrid contract in which designation as financial asset at FVTPL is allowed under K- IFRS 1109 ‘Financial Instruments’. However, the designation is irrevocable. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 5 - 133 Financial assets at FVTOCI 6.1.2.2 When financial assets are held under a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and when contractual cash flows from such financial assets are solely payments of principal and interest, the financial assets are classified as financial assets at FVTOCI. Also, for investments in equity instruments that are not held for short-term trade, an irrevocable election is available at initial recognition to present subsequent changes in fair value as other comprehensive income. At initial recognition, financial assets at FVTOCI is measured at its fair value plus any direct transaction cost and is subsequently measured in fair value. However, for equity instruments that do not have a quotation in an active market and in which fair value cannot be measured reliably, they are measured at cost. The changes in fair value except for profit or loss items such as impairment losses (reversals), interest revenue calculated by using effective interest method, and foreign exchange gain or loss, and related income tax effects are recognized as other comprehensive income until the asset’s disposal. Upon derecognition, the accumulated other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to net income for FVTOCI (debt instrument), and reclassified within the equity for FVTOCI (equity instruments) 6.1.2.3 Financial assets at amortized cost When financial assets are held under a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows, and when contractual cash flows from such financial assets are solely payments of principal and interest, the financial assets are classified as financial assets at amortized cost. At initial recognition, financial assets at amortized cost are recognized at fair value plus any direct transaction cost. Financial assets at amortized cost is presented at amortized cost using effective interest method, less any loss allowance. 6.2 Financial liabilities At initial recognition, financial liabilities are classified into either financial liabilities at FVTPL or financial liabilities at amortized cost. Financial liabilities are usually classified as financial liabilities at FVTPL when they are acquired with a purpose to repurchase them within a short period of time, when they are part of a certain financial instrument portfolio that is actually and recently being managed with a purpose of short-term profit and joint management by the Company at initial recognition, and when they are derivatives that do not qualify as hedging instruments. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value plus direct transaction cost at initial recognition and are subsequently measured at fair value. Profit or loss arising from financial liabilities at FVTPL is recognized in net income when occurred. It is possible to designate a financial liability as financial liability at FVTPL if at initial recognition: (a) it is possible to remove or significantly reduce recognition or measurement mismatch that may otherwise have occurred if not for its designation as financial liability at FVTPL; (b) the financial liability forms part of the Company’s financial instrument group (a group composed of a combination of financial asset or liability) according to the Company’s documented risk management or investment strategy, is measured at fair value and is being evaluated for its performance, and such information is provided internally; and (c) the financial liability is part of a contract that contains one or more of embedded derivatives, and is a hybrid contract in which designation as financial liability at FVTPL is allowed under K-IFRS 1109 ‘Financial Instruments’. Financial liabilities designated as at FVTPL are initially recognized at fair value, with any direct transaction cost recognized in profit or loss, and are subsequently measured at fair value. Any profit or loss from financial liabilities at FVTPL are recognized in profit or loss. Financial liabilities not classified as financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at amortized cost. The Company is classifying liabilities such as borrowings etc. as financial liabilities at amortized cost. 6.3 Reclassification Financial assets are not reclassified after initial recognition unless the Company modifies the business model used to manage financial assets. When the Company modifies the business model used to manage financial assets, all affected financial assets are reclassified on the first day of the first reporting period after the modification. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsSeparate Financial StatementsFinancial Review 134 6.4 Derecognition - 6 - Financial assets are derecognized when contractual rights to cash flows from the financial assets are expired, or when substantially all of risk and reward for holding financial assets is transferred to another entity as a result of a sale of financial assets. If the Company does not have and does not transfer substantially all of the risk and reward of holding financial assets with control of the transferred financial assets retained, the Company recognizes financial assets to the extent of its continuing involvement. If the Company holds substantially all the risk and reward of holding a financial asset, it continues to recognize that asset and proceeds are accounted for as collateralized borrowings. When a financial asset is fully derecognized, the difference between the book value and the sum of proceeds and accumulated other comprehensive income is recognized as profit or loss in case of FVTOCI (debt instruments), and as retained earnings for FVTOCI (equity instruments). In cases when a financial asset is not fully derecognized, the Company allocates the book value into amounts retained in the books and removed from the books, based on the relative fair value of each portion at the date of sale, and based on the degree of continuing involvement. For the derecognized portion of the financial assets, the difference between its book value and the sum of proceeds and the portion of accumulated other comprehensive income attributable to that portion will be recognized in profit or loss in case of debt instruments and recognized in retained earnings in case of equity instruments. The accumulated other comprehensive income is distributed to the portion of book value retained in the books, and to the portion of book value removed from the books. The Company derecognizes financial liabilities only when, the Company’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or have expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid and payable is recognized in profit or loss. When the Company exchanges with the existing lender one debt instrument into another one with the substantially different terms, such exchange is accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability. Similarly, the Company accounts for substantial modification of terms of an existing liability or part of it as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new liability. It is assumed that the terms are substantially different if the discounted present value of the cash flows under the new terms, including any fees paid net of any fees received and discounted using the original effective rate is at least 10 percent different from the discounted present value of the remaining cash flows of the original financial liability. 6.5 Fair value of financial instruments Financial assets at FVTPL and financial assets at FVTOCI are measured and presented in financial statements at their fair values, and all derivatives are also subject to fair value measurement. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to exchange an asset or paid to transfer a liability in a recent transaction between independent parties that are reasonable and willing. Fair value is the transaction price of identical financial assets or financial liabilities generated in an active market. An active market is a market where trade volume is sufficient and objective price information is available due to the fact that bid and ask price differences are small. When trade volume of a financial instrument is low, when transaction prices within the market show large differences among them, or when it cannot be concluded that a financial instrument is being traded within an active market due to disclosures being extremely limited, fair value is measured using valuation techniques based on alternative market information or using internal valuation techniques based on general and observable information obtained from objective sources. Market information includes maturity and characteristics, duration, similar yield curve, and variability measurement of financial instruments of similar nature. Fair value amount contains unique assumptions on each entity (the Company concluded that it is using assumptions applied in valuing financial instruments in the market, or risk-adjusted assumptions in case marketability does not exist). WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 7 - 135 The market approach and income approach, which are valuation techniques used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments, both require significant judgment. Market approach measures fair value using either a recent transaction price that includes the financial instrument, or observable information on comparable firm or assets. Income approach measures fair value through discounting future cash flows with a discount rate reflecting market expectations, and revenue, operating income, depreciation, capital expenditures, income tax, working capital and estimated residual value of financial investments are being considered when deriving future cash flows. Valuation techniques such as the above include estimates based on the financial instruments’ complexity and usefulness of observable information in the market. 6.5.1 Expected credit losses on financial assets The Company recognizes loss allowance on expected credit losses for the following assets: - Financial assets at amortized cost - Debt instruments measured at FVTOCI - Contract assets as defined by K-IFRS 1115 Expected credit losses are weighted-average value of a range of possible results, considering the time value of money, and are measured by incorporating information on past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions that are available without undue cost or effort at the reporting date. The methods to measure expected credit losses are classified into following three categories in accordance with K-IFRS: - General approach: Financial assets that does not belong to below two models and unused loan commitments - Simplified approach: When financial assets are either trade receivables, contract assets or lease receivables - Credit impairment model: Purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets a) Measurement of expected credit losses on financial asset at amortized cost The expected credit losses on financial assets at amortized cost is measured by the difference between the contractual cash flows during the period and the present value of expected cash flows. Expected cash inflows are computed for individually significant financial assets in order to calculate expected credit losses. When financial assets that are not individually significant, they are included in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and expected credit losses of the group are calculated collectively. Expected credit losses are deducted through loss allowance account, and when the financial asset is determined to be uncollectible, the loss allowance is written off from the books along with the related financial asset. When loan receivable previously written off is subsequently collected, the related loss allowance is increased and changes in loss allowance are recognized in profit or loss. b) Measurement of expected credit losses on financial asset at FVTOCI The measurement method of expected credit loss is identical to financial asset at amortized cost, but changes in the allowance is recognized in other comprehensive income. When financial assets at FVTOCI is disposed or repaid, the related allowance is reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income. (7) Offsetting financial instruments Financial assets and liabilities are presented as a net amount in the statements of financial position when the Company has an enforceable legal right and an intention to settle on a net basis or to realize an asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsSeparate Financial StatementsFinancial Review 136 - 8 - (8) Premises and equipment Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. The cost of an item of premises and equipment is expenditures directly attributable to their purchase or construction, which includes any cost directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. It also includes the initial estimate of costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located. Subsequent costs are recognized in the carrying amount of an asset or as a separate asset (if appropriate) if it is probable that future economic benefit associated with the assets will flow into the Company and the cost of an asset can be measured reliably. Routine maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. While land is not depreciated, for all other premises and equipment, depreciation is charged to net income on a straight-line basis by applying the following estimated economic useful lives on the amount of cost or revalued amount less residual value. Leasehold Improvement Properties for business purpose Right-of-use asset Useful life 5 years 5 years Lease period The Company reassesses the depreciation method, the estimated useful lives and residual values of premises and equipment at the end of each reporting period. If changes in the estimates are deemed appropriate, the changes are accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate. When there is an indicator of impairment and the carrying amount of a premises and equipment item exceeds the estimated recoverable amount, the carrying amount of such asset is reduced to the recoverable amount. (9) Intangible assets and goodwill The Company is recognizing intangible assets measured at the manufacturing cost or acquisition cost plus additional incidental expenses less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. The Company’s intangible asset are amortized over the following economic lives using the straight-line method. The estimated useful life and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period. If changes in the estimates are deemed appropriate, the changes are accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate. Software Development cost Useful life 5 years or period of use 5 years In addition, when an indicator that intangible assets are impaired is noted, and the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the asset, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount immediately. (10) Impairment of non-monetary assets Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives or intangible assets that are not yet available for use are tested for impairment annually, regardless of whether or not there is any indication of impairment. All other assets are tested for impairment by estimating the recoverable amount when there is an objective indication that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recoverable amount is the higher of value in use or net fair value, less costs to sell. If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount and such impairment loss is recognized immediately in net income. (11) Provisions The Company recognizes provision if (a) it has present or contractual obligations as a result of the past event, (b) it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and (c) the amount of the obligation is reliably estimated. Provision is not recognized for the future operating losses. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 9 - 137 Where the Company is required to restore a leased property that is used as an office to an agreed condition after the contractual term expires, the present value of expected amounts to be used to dispose, decommission or repair the facilities is recognized as an asset retirement obligation. Where there are a number of similar obligations, the probability that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the obligations as a whole. Although the likelihood of outflow for any one item may be small, if it is probable that some outflow of resources will be needed to settle the obligations as a whole, a provision is recognized. (12) Equity instruments issued by the Company The Company classifies a financial instrument that it issues as a financial liability or an equity instrument in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement. A financial liability is a contractual obligation to deliver cash or another financial asset to another entity. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. In case of hybrid securities that have the unconditional right to avoid contractual obligations, such as to deliver cash or other financial assets related to financial instruments, they are classifies as equity instruments and presented as part of equity. If the Company reacquires its own equity instruments, the consideration paid including the direct transaction costs (net of income tax expense) are presented as a deduction from total equity until such instruments are retired or reissued. When these instruments are reissued, the consideration received (net of direct transaction costs) is included in the shareholder’s equity. (13) Employee benefits and pensions The Company recognizes the undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the services rendered by the employees. Also, the Company recognizes expenses and liabilities in the case of accumulating compensated absences when the employees render services that entitle their right to future compensated absences. Similarly, the Company recognizes expenses and liabilities for customary profit distribution or bonuses when the employees render services, even though the Company does not have legal obligation to do so because it can be construed as constructive obligation. The Company is operating defined benefit plans. For defined benefit plans, the defined benefit liability is calculated through an actuarial assessment using the projected unit credit method every end of the reporting period, conducted by professional actuaries. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the return on plan assets (excluding interest), and the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling (if applicable) is reflected immediately in the separate statement of financial position with a charge or credit recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement recognized in the statement of comprehensive income is not reclassified to profit or loss in the subsequent periods. Past service cost is recognized in profit or loss in the period of a plan amendment. Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate at the beginning of the period to the net defined benefit liability or asset. Defined benefit costs are composed of service cost (including current service cost and past service cost, as well as gains and losses on curtailments and settlements), net interest expense (income) and remeasurement. The Company presents the service cost and net interest expense (income) components in profit or loss, and the remeasurement component in other comprehensive income. Curtailment gains and losses are accounted for as past service costs. The retirement benefit obligation recognized in the separate statement of financial position represents the actual deficit or surplus in the Company’s defined benefit plans. Any surplus resulting from this calculation is recognized as an asset limited to the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plans or reductions in future contributions to the plans. Liabilities for termination benefits are recognized at the earlier of either 1) the date when the Company is no longer able to cancel its proposal for termination benefits or 2) the date when the Company has recognized the cost of restructuring that accompanies the payment of termination benefits. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsSeparate Financial StatementsFinancial Review 138 - 10 - (14) Share-based payments For cash-settled share-based payment transactions that provide cash in return for the goods or services received, the Company measures the goods or services received, and the corresponding liability at the fair value and recognizes as employee benefit expenses and liabilities during the vesting period. The fair value of the liability is remeasured at the end of each reporting period and the settlement date until the liability is settled, and changes in fair value are recognized as employee benefits. (15) Income taxes Income tax expense is composed of current tax and deferred tax. That is, income tax expense is composed of taxes payable or refundable during the period and deferred taxes calculated by applying asset-liability method to taxable and deductible temporary differences arising from operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Temporary differences are the differences between the carrying values of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their tax bases. Deferred income tax benefit or expense is recognized for the change in deferred tax assets or liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured as of the reporting date using the enacted or substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or asset realized. Deferred tax assets, including the carryforwards of unused tax losses, are recognized to the extent it is probable that the deferred tax assets will be realized. The Company, as a consolidation group for its wholly-owned subsidiaries applies consolidated tax return approach, in which the Company and its subsidiaries are consolidated into a single tax base and tax amount. The Company determined whether temporary differences are realizable by considering the Company and each subsidiary’s future taxable income. For the changes in deferred income tax asset (liability), the Company recognized income tax expense (benefit), excluding the amounts that are directly adjusted from equity. Also, as the Company became the consolidation entity for tax filings and tax returns, it recognized the total amount of income tax payables as liabilities and individual tax amounts to be received from each of its wholly-owned subsidiaries as receivables. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset if, and only if, the Company has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities, and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority or when the entity intends to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis with different taxable entities. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax assets or liabilities are not recognized if they arise from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. Current and deferred taxes are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity or when it arises from business combination. The tax uncertainty arises from the compensation claim filed by the Company, and refund litigation for the amount of tax levied by the tax authority due to differences in tax law analysis. In response, the Company paid taxes in accordance with K-IFRS 2123 due to the tax authority’s claim, but recognized as a corporate tax asset if it is highly probable of a refund in the future. (16) Earnings per share (“EPS”) Basic EPS is a calculation of net income per each common stock. It is calculated by dividing net income attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is calculated by adjusting the earnings and number of shares for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 11 - 139 (17) Leases 17.1 Definition of lease The Company determines whether the contract is, or contains, a lease at the date of initial application. A contract is or contains a lease if the right to control the use of an identified asset is transferred in exchange for the consideration received for a period of time. For a contract that contains a lease component, as a practical expedient, the company may elect, by class of underlying asset, not to separate non-lease components from lease components, and instead account for each lease component and any associated non- lease components as a single lease component. IFRS Interpretations Committee published its interpretation of ‘Lease Period and Lease Improvement Useful Life’ as of December 16, 2019. The Interpretation Committee discussed a question about how to determine the lease term for cancellable or renewable leases and according to the interpretation, the lease term will depend on both the termination penalties in the contract and the broader economics of the contract. Agenda decisions issued by the Interpretations Committee do not have an application date, but are expected to be implemented as soon as possible. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the agenda decision and does not expect a material impact to the financial statement. 17.2 Lessee At the commencement date, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. For initial recognition, a right-of-use asset is measured at a cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses, adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. If a right-of-use asset satisfies the definition of an investment property, it can be presented as an investment property. A right-of- use asset as an investment property is initially measured at a cost and subsequently measured at fair value, in line with the Company’s accounting policy on the investment property. At the commencement date, a lease liability is measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if the rate can be readily determined. If the rate cannot be readily determined, the Company’s incremental borrowing rate can be used. Generally, the Company uses incremental borrowing rate as a discount rate. A lease liability is subsequently measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest rate on the lease liability and reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made. A lease liability is remeasured when future lease payments change, depending on the changes in an index or a rate, change in amounts expected to be payable due to residual value guarantees, assessment of whether the Company is reasonably certain to exercise the purchase option and extension option, the Company is not reasonably certain to exercise the termination options. A Company’s judgment is used when determining the lease term for some contracts that contain extension options. The assessment on whether the Company is reasonably certain to exercise the extension option could affect the lease term, and therefore, the lease liability and the right-of-use asset could be significantly affected. The Company chose not to recognize the right-of-use asset and the lease liability for the short-term leases and some leases for which the underlying asset is of low value (e.g. IT facilities). The Company recognizes the lease payments associated with those leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. 17.3 Lessor The Company classifies its leases as either an operating lease or a finance lease, and has different accounting treatments for the two types of lease. According to the Standards, if a lessor subleases an asset, the head lease and sublease must be accounted for as separate contracts, and the sublease is classified by reference to the assets arising from its head lease. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsSeparate Financial StatementsFinancial Review 140 - 12 - 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS The significant accounting estimates and assumptions are continuously being evaluated based on numerous factors including historical experiences and expectations of future events considered to be reasonably possible. Actual results can differ from those estimates based on such definitions. The accounting estimates and assumptions that contain significant risk of materially changing current book values of assets and liabilities in the next accounting periods are as follows: (1) Income taxes The Company has recognized current and deferred taxes based on best estimates of expected future income tax effect arising from the Company’s operations until the end of the current reporting period. However, actual tax payment may not be identical to the related assets and/or liabilities already recognized, and these differences may affect current taxes and deferred tax assets/liabilities at the time when income tax effects are finalized. Deferred tax assets relating to tax losses carried forward and deductible temporary differences are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the tax losses carried forward and the deductible temporary differences can be utilized. In this case the Company’s evaluation considers various factors such as estimated future taxable profit based on forecasted operating results, which are based on historical financial performance. The Company is reviewing the book value of deferred tax assets every end of the reporting period and in the event that the possibility of earning future taxable income changes, the deferred tax assets are adjusted up to taxable income sufficient to use deductible temporary differences. (2) Valuation of financial instruments Financial assets at FVTPL and FVTOCI are recognized in the separate financial statements at fair value. All derivatives are measured at fair value. Valuation techniques are required in order to determine fair values of financial instruments where observable market prices do not exist. Financial instruments that are not actively traded and have low price transparency will have less objective fair value and require broad judgment in liquidity, concentration, uncertainty in market factors and assumption in price determination and other risks. As described in Note 2, (6.5), ‘Fair value of financial instruments’, when valuation techniques are used to determine the fair value of a financial instrument, various general and internally developed techniques are used, and various types of assumptions and variables are incorporated during the process. (3) Impairment of financial instruments KIFRS 1109 requires entities to measure loss allowance equal to 12-month expected credit losses or lifetime expected credit losses after classifying financial assets into one of the three stages, which depends on the degree of increase in credit risk after their initial recognition. Stage 1 Credit risk has not significantly increased since initial recognition(*) Allowance for expected credit losses Expected 12-month credit losses: Expected credit losses due to possible defaults on financial instruments within a 12-month period from the end of reporting period. Stage 2 Credit risk has significantly increased since initial recognition Stage 3 Credit has been impaired Expected lifetime credit losses: Expected credit losses from all possible defaults during the expected lifetime of the financial instruments. (*) Credit risk may be considered to not have been significantly increased when credit risk is low at the end of reporting period. The Company has estimated the allowance for credit losses based on reasonable and supportable information that was available without undue cost or effort at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 13 - 141 (4) Defined benefit plan The Company operates a defined benefit pension plan. Defined benefit obligation is calculated at every end of the reporting period by performing actuarial valuation, and estimation of assumptions such as discount rate, expected wage growth rate and mortality rate is required to perform such actuarial valuation. The defined benefit plan, due to its long-term nature, contains significant uncertainties in its estimates. (5) Impairment of non-monetary assets At the end of each reporting period, the company assesses the existence of impairment indications for all non- monetary assets. An intangible asset with indefinite useful life is tested for impairment annually or in the event of signs of impairment, and other non-monetary assets are tested for impairment when there are indications that the carrying amount will be not recoverable. To calculate value in use, management estimates future expected cash flows from the asset or cash-generating unit and selects an appropriate discount rate to calculate the present value of this future cash flow. 4. RISK MANAGEMENT The Company is exposed to various risks that may arise from its operating activities and credit risk, market risk and liquidity risk are the main types of risks. In order to manage such risks, the Risk Management Committee analyzes, assesses, and establishes risk management standards, including policies, guidelines, management systems and decision-making to ensure sound management of the Group. The Risk Management Committee, Chief Risk Officer (“CRO”) and the Risk Management Department are operated as risk management organizations. The board of directors operates the Risk Management Committee, composed of nonexecutive directors for professional risk management. The Risk Management Committee performs as the top decision-making body for risk management by establishing fundamental risk management policies that are consistent with the Group’s management strategy and by determining the Group’s acceptable level of risk. CRO assists the Risk Management Committee and operates the Group Risk Management Council, which is composed of the risk management officers of the subsidiaries, to periodically check and improve the external environment and the Group’s risk burden. The Risk Management Department which is independently structured, controls the risk management matter of the Group and reports key risks and assists decision-making. (1) Credit risk Credit risk represents the possibility of financial losses incurred when the counterparty fails to fulfill its contractual obligations. The goals of credit risk management are to maintain the Company’s credit risk exposure to a permissible degree and to optimize its rate of return considering such credit risk. 1.1 Credit risk management The Company measures expected loss on assets subject to credit risk management and uses it as a management indicator. 1.2 Maximum exposure to credit risk The maximum exposure to credit risk for financial instruments is as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions): Loans and other financial assets at amortized cost Banks Corporates Financial assets at FVTPL Derivatives Total December 31, 2019 1,228,918 40,285 1,269,203 9,434 1,278,637 Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsSeparate Financial StatementsFinancial Review 142 - 14 - a) Credit risk exposure by geographical areas The following tables analyze credit risk exposure by geographical areas (Unit: Korean Won in millions): Loans and other financial assets at amortized cost Financial assets at FVTPL Total b) Credit risk exposure by industries December 31, 2019 Korea 1,269,203 9,434 1,278,637 The following tables analyze credit risk exposure by industries, which are finance and insurance and others in accordance with the Korea Standard Industrial Classification Code (Unit: Korean Won in millions): Loans and other financial assets at amortized cost Financial assets at FVPTL Total 1.3 Credit risk exposure December 31, 2019 Finance and insurance 1,267,228 9,434 1,276,662 Others 1,975 - 1,975 Total 1,269,203 9,434 1,278,637 The credit soundness for financial assets is as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions): December 31, 2019 Stage 1 Stage 2 Above appropriate credit rating (*1) Less than a limited credit rating (*3) Above appropriat e credit rating (*2) Less than a limited credit rating (*3) Allowance for loan losses Total, net Collateral value of impaired asset Stage 3 Total Loans and other financial assets at amortized cost Banks Corporates General corporates Total 1,269,466 1,229,181 40,285 40,285 1,269,466 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 1,269,466 1,229,181 40,285 40,285 1,269,466 (263) (263) - - (263) 1,269,203 1,228,918 40,285 40,285 1,269,203 - - - - - (*1) Credit grade of corporates are AAA ~ BBB.

WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 15 - 143 (2) Market risk Market risk is the possible risk of loss arising from trading and non-trading activities in the volatility of market factors such as interest rates, stock prices, and foreign exchange rates. The Company’s major market risk is interest rate risk. The Company estimates and manages risks related to changes in interest rate due to the difference in the maturities of interest-bearing assets and liabilities and discrepancies in the terms of interest rates. Cash flows (both principal and interest), interest-bearing assets and liabilities, presented by each repricing date, are as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions): Within 3 months 4 to 6 months December 31, 2019 10 to 12 months 7 to 9 months 1 to 5 years Over 5 years Total Asset: Loans and other financial assets at amortized cost Liability: Debentures (3) Liquidity risk 445,070 733,330 - - - - 1,178,400 5,486 5,486 5,486 5,487 87,780 1,049,863 1,159,588 Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Company may encounter difficulties in meeting obligations from its financial liabilities. 3.1 Liquidity risk management Liquidity risk management is to prevent potential cash shortages as a result of mismatching the assets and liabilities or unexpected cash outflows. The financial liabilities in the statement of financial position that are relevant to liquidity risk are incorporated within the scope of risk management. The Company manages liquidity risk by identifying the maturity gap and such gap ratio through various cash flows analysis (i.e. based on remaining maturity and contract period, etc.). 3.2 Maturity analysis of non-derivative financial liabilities a) Cash flows of principals and interests by remaining contractual maturities of non-derivative financial liabilities are as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions): Within 3 months 5,486 335. 6,131 11,952 4 to 6 months 5,486 335 2,043 7,864 December 31, 2019 7 to 9 months 10 to 12 months 1 to 5 years 5,486 335 - 5,821 5,487 336 183 6,006 87,780 249 820 88,849 Over 5 years 1,049,863 - Total 1,159,588 1,590 - 1,049,863 9,177 1,170,355 Debentures Lease liabilities Other financial liabilities Total Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsSeparate Financial StatementsFinancial Review 144 - 16 - b) Cash flows of principals and interests by expected maturities of non-derivative financial liabilities are as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions): December 31, 2019 Within 3 months 5,486 335. 4 to 6 months 5,486 335 7 to 9 months 5,486 335 6,131 11,952 2,043 7,864 - 5,821 10 to 12 months 1 to 5 years 5,487 336 183 6,006 87,780 249 820 88,849 Over 5 years 1,049,863 - Total 1,159,588 1,590 - 1,049,863 9,177 1,170,355 Debentures Lease liabilities Other financial liabilities Total (4) Capital management The Company complies with the standard of capital adequacy provided by financial regulatory authorities. The capital adequacy standard is based on Basel published by Basel III Committee on Banking Supervision in Bank for International Settlement in 2010 and was implemented in Korea in December 2013. The capital adequacy ratio is calculated by dividing own capital by asset (weighted with a risk premium – risk weighted assets) based on the consolidated financial statements of the company. According to the above regulations, the Company is required to meet the following new minimum requirements: Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 7.0%, a Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.5% and a minimum total capital ratio of 10.5% as of December 31, 2019, respectively.

THE FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (1) The fair value hierarchy The fair value hierarchy is determined by the levels of judgment involved in estimating fair values of financial assets and liabilities. The specific financial instruments characteristics and market condition such as volume of transactions and transparency are reflected to the market observable inputs. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value of its financial assets and financial liabilities. Fair value is measured based on the perspective of a market participant. As such, even when market assumptions are not readily available, the Company’s own assumptions reflect those that market participants would use for measuring the assets or liabilities at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is described in the one of the following three levels used to classify fair value measurements: • • • Level 1— When fair value of a financial instrument is measured using its fair value at the quoted price in the active market, the fair value of such financial instruments is classified as Level 1. The types of financial instruments generally included in Level 1 are publicly traded equity securities, derivatives, and debt securities issued by governmental bodies. Level 2— When fair value of a financial instrument is measured using valuation techniques, the fair value is classified as Level 2 when all major elements are market observable inputs. The types of financial instruments generally included in Level 2 are most of the debt securities both in local and foreign currencies and regular OTC derivatives such as swaps, forwards, options, etc. Level 3— When fair value of a financial instrument is measured using valuation techniques, the fair value is classified as Level 3 when one or more major elements are inputs that are not observable in the market. The types of financial instruments generally included in Level 3 are non-public securities, complex structured debt securities, and complex OTC derivatives. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to a fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and consideration of inherent factors of the asset or liability. (2) Fair value hierarchy of financial assets measured at fair value are as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions): Financial assets: Financial assets at FVTPL: Derivative assets December 31, 2019 Fair value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total - - 9,434 9,434 Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsSeparate Financial StatementsFinancial Review 148 - 20 - Financial assets measured at FVTPL are recognized at fair value. Fair value refers to the price that will be paid at the measurement date as the assets are sold or the liabilities transferred in a normal transaction between market participants. The fair values of financial instruments are measured using quoted market price in active markets. In case there is no active market for financial instruments, the Company determines the fair value using valuation methods. Valuation methods and input variables for financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value are given as follows: Derivatives Valuation methods The fair value is measured considering the price and volatility of the underlying asset using the Binomial Tree, a commonly used technique in the market Input variables Price of underlying asset, volatility, risk-free market return, corporate bond yield rate Level 3 financial asset valuation techniques measured at fair value that are significant but unobservable inputs variables are as follows: Fair value valuation technique Optional pricing model etc. Type Stock- related Derivative assets Significant but not observable input variables Range Price and volatility of underlying asset 12.58% ~15.38 % Correlation between unobservable inputs and fair value The higher the price and volatility of the underlying asset, the greater the change in fair value The fair value of financial assets classified as level 3 uses external valuation figures. (3) Changes in financial assets measured at fair value classified into Level 3 are as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions): For the period from January 11, 2019(date of incorporation) to December 31, 2019 Net Income (*) Other comprehensive income Purchases/ issuances Disposals/ settlements Transfer to or out of Level 3 Ending Beginning - 9,434 - - - - 9,434 Financial assets: Financial assets at FVTPL Derivatives assets (*) The gain amounting to 9,434 million Won for the period from January 11, 2019 (date of incorporation) to December 31, 2019, which is from financial assets that the company holds as at the end of the periods, has been recognized in net gain on financial instruments at FVTPL in the separate statement of comprehensive income. (4) The results of a sensitivity analysis on the rational fluctuation in the unobservable inputs used for measuring Level 3 financial instruments are as follows. The sensitivity analysis of the financial instruments has been performed by classifying favorable and unfavorable changes based on how changes in unobservable inputs would lead to the fluctuations of financial instruments’ value. When the fair value of a financial instrument is affected by more than one unobservable input, the below table reflects the most favorable or the most unfavorable circumstances. The sensitivity analysis was performed for level 3 financial instruments whose fair value changes are recognized in profit or loss and includes stock- related derivatives. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 21 - 149 The following table shows the sensitivity analysis to disclose the effect of reasonably possible volatility on the fair value of Level 3 financial instruments (Unit: Korean Won in millions): Financial assets: Financial assets at FVTPL Derivative assets (*) As of December 31, 2019 Net income (loss) Favorable Unfavorable 943 (943) (*) Fair value changes of equity related derivatives assets and liabilities are calculated by increasing or decreasing historical volatility of the stock price and correlation, which are major unobservable variables, by 10%, respectively. (5) Fair value and carrying amount of financial assets and liabilities that are recorded at amortized cost are as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions): Financial assets: Loans and other financial assets at amortized cost (*) Financial liabilities: Debentures Other financial liabilities (*) December 31, 2019 Fair value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Book value - - - - 1,269,203 1,269,203 1,269,203 951,387 - - 10,745 951,387 10,745 947,679 10,745 (*) For loans, other financial assets and liabilities at amortized cost classified as Level 3, the carrying amount was disclosed at fair value considering the carrying amount as an approximation of fair value. The fair values of financial instruments are measured using quoted market price in active markets. In case there is no active market for financial instruments, the company determines the fair value using valuation methods. For the disclosed items in which book value is considered to be the approximate value of fair value, valuation techniques and input variables are not disclosed. Valuation techniques for the fair value of financial assets and liabilities that are recorded at amortized cost are as follows.: Debentures Valuation methods The fair value is measured by discounting the projected cash flows of debt products by applying the market discount rate that is reflecting credit rating of the Company.

Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsSeparate Financial StatementsFinancial Review 154 - 26 - 14. NET DEFINED BENEFIT LIABILITY The characteristics of the Company’s defined benefit retirement pension plans are as follows: Employees and directors with one or more years of service are entitled to receive a payment upon termination of their employment, based on their length of service and rate of pay at the time of termination. The assets of the plans are measured at their fair value at the end of reporting date. The plan liabilities are measured using actuarial assumptions (projected unit credit method which considers the increase of projected earnings) that give the best estimate of the future cash flows that will arise under the plan liabilities. The Company is exposed to various risks through defined benefit retirement pension plan, and the most significant risks are as follows: Volatility of asset The defined benefit obligation was estimated with a discount rate calculated based on blue chip corporate bonds earnings. A deficit may occur if the rate of return on plan assets falls short of the discount rate. Decrease in profitability of blue chip bonds A decrease in profitability of blue chip bonds will be partially offset by some increase in the value of debt securities that the employee benefit plan owns but will bring an increase in the defined benefit obligation. Risk of inflation Most defined benefit obligations are related to inflation rate; the higher the inflation rate is, the higher the level of liabilities. Therefore, deficit occurs in the defined benefit retirement pension plans if an inflation rate increases.

Report on the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements Audit Opinion We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Woori Financial Group and its subsidiaries (the “Group”), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows, for the years then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards (“K-IFRS”). Basis for Audit Opinion We conducted our audits in accordance with the Korean Standards on Auditing (“KSAs”). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the ethical requirements, including those related to independence, that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated financial statements in the Republic of Korea as required by prevailing audit regulations. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Key Audit Matters The key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our audit opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 169 Allowance for credit loss in accordance with K-IFRS 1109 ‘Financial Instruments’ Key audit matter description As described in notes 2, 3, 4 and 10, the Group estimates and records an allowance for loans based on expected credit losses. In order to estimate expected credit losses, the Group segregated its portfolio in retail, corporate and credit card loans. Loans measured at amortized cost are KRW 272,607,264 million, with loan loss allowances of KRW 1,575,020 million, as of December 31, 2019. Both the individual and collective impairment methodologies must consider historical losses adjusted for forward looking information and include multiple scenarios for macroeconomic factors. The allowance for certain loans is measured, at least in part, based on the valuation of collaterals which must take into account an expectation of when and for how much the collateral will be sold. There was a significant amount of judgment required by management when determining the appropriateness of the forward looking and macroeconomic information used in the calculation of the expected losses in its loan portfolio. Given the level of subjectivity and judgment, auditing the estimated allowance for loan losses involved especially complex and subjective judgment. How the scope of our audit responded to the key audit matter Our audit procedures related to the assumptions and unobservable inputs used by management for the estimate of impaired loans included the following: • We tested the design and operating effectiveness of controls over the appropriateness of the cash-flows estimated to be collected in individually significant loans, including the estimates of collateral values. • We tested the design and operating effectiveness of the controls over the appropriateness of the models used to determine the calculation of the allowance for loan losses for collectively assessed loans and most importantly the determination of the relevant model and assumptions to incorporate forward looking and macro-economic information. • We used our credit specialists to assist us in challenging the reasonableness of the methodologies and inputs used in the calculation of the allowance for loan losses for collectively assessed loans, most importantly in determining the appropriateness of forward looking and macro-economic scenarios used by management. • We reperformed the client's estimates of future operating cash flows from borrowers with significant loans outstanding to determine the available cash flows to repay the loans. In addition, we challenged these estimates by searching for contradictory evidence available at the balance sheet date. • We selected samples of loans subject to individual assessments and performed the following:  Verified the appropriateness of the process of calculating future cash flows from borrowers with significant loans outstanding to determine the available cash flows to repay the loans.  With assistance of our appraisal specialists and using property auctions price information sources independently from the Group, we evaluated the reasonableness of cash flow estimates based on the future sale of collateral. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 170 Responsibilities of Management and the Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in accordance with K-IFRS, and for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management of the Group is responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Those Charged with Governance is responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with KSAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with KSAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also: • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. • Conclude on the appropriateness of the management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern. • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We are solely responsible for our audit opinion. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 171 We communicate with the those Charged with Governance of the Group regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide the those Charged with Governance of the Group with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements, including those related to independence, and to communicate with them all matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. From the matters communicated with those Charged with Governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter. As described in the Note 43, Woori Financial Group Inc. was established on January 11, 2019 as a comprehensive transfer with shareholders of Woori Bank, Woori Finance Research Institute Co., Ltd., Woori FIS Co., Ltd., Woori Fund Service Co., Ltd., Woori Credit Information Co., Ltd., and Woori Private Equity Asset Management Co., Ltd.

(5) The financial support that the Group provides to consolidated structured entities is as follows: - Structured entity for asset securitization The structured entity which is established for the purpose of securitization of project financing loans, corporate bonds, and other financial assets. The Group is involved with the structured entity through provision of credit facility over asset-backed commercial papers issued by the entity, originating loans directly to the structured entity, or purchasing 100% of the subordinated debts issued by the structured entity. - Structured entity for the investments in securities The structured entity is established for the purpose of investments in securities. The Group acquires beneficiary certificates through its contribution of funding to the structured entity by the Group, and it is exposed to the risk that it may not be able to recover its fund depending on the result of investment performance of asset managers of the structured entity. - Money trust under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act The Group provides with financial guarantee of principal and interest or solely principal to some of its trust products. Due to the financial guarantees, the Group may be obliged when the principal and interest or principal of the trust product sold is short of the guaranteed amount depending on the result of investment performance of the trust product. As of December 31, 2019, the Group provides 2,241,640 million Won of credit facilities for the structured entities mentioned above. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 7 - 185 (6) The Group has entered into various agreements with structured entities such as asset securitization, structured finance, investment fund, and monetary trust. The characteristics and the nature of risks related to unconsolidated structured entities over which the Group does not have control in accordance with K- IFRS 1110 are as follows: The ownership interests on unconsolidated structured entities that the Group hold are classified into asset securitization vehicles, structured finance, investment fund and real-estate trust, based on the nature and the purpose of the structured entities. Unconsolidated structured entities classified as ‘asset securitization vehicles’ are entities that issue asset- backed securities, pay the principal and interest or distributes dividends on asset-backed securities through borrowings or profits from the management, operation and sale of securitized assets. The Group transfers related risks by the purchase commitments of asset-backed securities or issuance of asset-backed securities through credit grants, and the structured entities recognize related interest or fee revenue. There are entities that provide additional funding and conditional debt acquisition commitments before the Group’s financial support, but the Group is still exposed to losses arising from the purchase of financial assets issued by the structured entities when it fails to renew the securities. Unconsolidated structured entities classified as ‘structured financing’ include real estate project financing investment vehicle, social overhead capital companies, and special purpose vehicles for ship (aircraft) financing. Each entity is incorporated as a separate company with a limited purpose in order to efficiently pursue business goals. ‘Structured financing’ is a financing method for large-scale risky business, with investments made based on feasibility of the specific business or project, instead of credit of business owner or physical collaterals. The investors receive profits from the operation of the business. The Group recognizes interest revenue, profit or loss from assessment or transactions of financial instruments, or dividend income. With regard to uncertainties involving structured financing, there are entities that provide financial support such as additional fund, guarantees and prioritized credit grants prior to the Group’s intervention, but the Group is exposed to possible losses due to loss of principal from reduction in investment value or irrecoverable loans arising from failure to collect scheduled cash flows and cessation of projects. Unconsolidated structured entities classified as ‘investment funds’ include investment trusts and private equity funds. An investment trust orders the investment and operation of funds to the trust manager in accordance with trust contract with profits distributed to the investors. Private equity funds finances money required to acquire equity securities to enable direction of management and/or improvement of ownership structure, with profit distributed to the investors. The Group recognizes pro rata amount of valuation gain or loss on investment and dividend income as an investor and may be exposed to losses due to reduction in investment value. ‘Real estate trust’ is to be entrusted the underlying property for the purpose of managing, disposing, operating or developing from the consignor who owns the property and distributes the proceeds achieved through the trust to the beneficiary. When the consignee does not fulfill his or her important obligations in the trust contract or it is, in fact, difficult to run the business, the Group may be exposed to the threat of compensating the loss. The total assets of the unconsolidated structured entity held by the Group, the carrying amount of the items recognized in the financial statements, the maximum loss exposure, and the losses from the unconsolidated structured entity are as follows. The maximum loss exposure includes the amount of investment recognized in the financial statements and the amount that is likely to be confirmed in the future when satisfies certain conditions by contracts such as purchase arrangements, credit offerings.

BASIS OF PREPARATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (1) Basis of presentation The Group’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards (“K-IFRS”) The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019 are stated below, and the accounting policies applied are identical to ones used in the preparation of Woori Bank’s previous period consolidated financial statements, except for the effects of adopting new standards or interpretations as explained below. The consolidated financial statements, as described in following paragraphs of accounting policy, are prepared at the end of each reporting period in historical cost basis, except for certain non-current assets and financial assets that are either revalued or measured in fair value. Historical cost is generally measured at the fair value of consideration given to acquire assets. The consolidated financial statements of the Group were approved for the issuance on March 3, 2020 by the Board of Directors, and the final approval will be made in the annual general shareholders’ meeting on March 25, 2020. 1) The standards and interpretations that are newly adopted by the Group during the current period, and the changes in accounting policies thereof are as follows: ① K-IFRS 1109 ‘Financial Instruments,’ K-IFRS 1107 ‘Financial Instruments: Disclosure’ amendments The Group has adopted the amendments of K-IFRS 1109 and 1107 for the first time in the current year. The amendments mainly deal with the addition of temporary exceptions from applying specific hedge accounting requirements while the uncertainty arises from interest rate benchmark reform. The amendment requires that for the purpose of determining whether a forecast transaction (or a component thereof) is highly probable, an entity shall assume that the interest rate benchmark on which the hedged cash flows (contractually or non-contractually specified) are based is not altered as a result of interest rate benchmark reform. When applying the prospective assessment, the amendment further requires that an entity shall assume that the hedged risk or the interest rate benchmark on which the hedged item or the hedging instrument is based is not altered as a result of the reform. Additionally, for a hedge of a non-contractually specified benchmark component of interest rate risk, an entity shall apply the requirement that the risk component shall be separately identifiable only at the inception of the hedging relationship. Meanwhile, an entity shall prospectively cease applying the temporary exceptions to a hedged item at the earlier of: (a)when the uncertainty arising from interest rate benchmark reform is no longer present with respect to the timing and the amount of the interest rate benchmark-based cash flows of the hedged item; and (b)when the hedging relationship that the hedged item is part of is discontinued. Note 26 sets out details of the hedge accounting applied by the Group. These amendments will be effective from January 1, 2020 but the Group has applied such amendments in current year as the early adoption is permitted. ② K-IFRS 1116 Leases The Group initially applied K-IFRS 1116 on January 1, 2019. K-IFRS 1116 introduces an accounting model for the single lessee and as a result, the Group, as a lessee, recognizes right-of-use assets which represent a lessee’s right to use an underlying asset and lease liabilities which represent an obligation to make lease payments. An accounting model for the lessor is similar to the previous accounting policy. The Group recognized the cumulative effects due to the initial application of K-IFRS 1116 on January 1, 2019, which is the date of initial application. Therefore, the comparative financial information applies K- IFRS 1017 and K-IFRS 2104 as reported previously, and was not restated. The details of the changes to the accounting policy are described below. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 11 - 189 i) Definition of lease Previously, the Group determined whether an arrangement is, or contains, a lease on the arrangement date by applying K-IFRS 2104 ‘Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease’ which focused on ‘risks and consideration’. The Group has started to determine whether the contract is, or contains, a lease, based on the new definition of a lease. Under K-IFRS 1116, a contract determines whether a lease includes control of the use of an underlying asset that is identified in exchange for consideration. On the date of initial application for K-IFRS 1116, the Group elected to apply a practical expedient which does not require the Group to reassess whether the contract is a lease. The Group applied K-IFRS 1116 only to the contracts that were previously identified as a lease and did not reassess the contracts that were not identified as a lease in line with K-IFRS 1017 and K-IFRS 2104. Therefore, the definition of lease under K-IFRS 1116 is only applicable to contracts that are entered into or modified after January 1, 2019. For the agreed or revalued date of the contract that contains a lease component, the Group allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of the relative stand-alone price of the lease and non-lease components. The Group elected not to recognize right-to-use assets and lease liabilities for certain leases of low-value assets (e.g. IT facilities) and short-term leases (less than one year). The Group will recognize the related lease payments as expenses equally over the lease period. IFRS Interpretations Committee published its interpretation of ‘Lease Period and Lease Improvement Useful Life’ as of December 16, 2019. The Interpretation Committee discussed a question about how to determine the lease term for cancellable or renewable leases and according to the interpretation, the lease term will depend on both the termination penalties in the contract and the broader economics of the contract. Agenda decisions issued by the Interpretations Committee do not have an application date, but are expected to be implemented as soon as possible. The Group is currently assessing the impact of the agenda decision and does not expect a material impact to the financial statements. ii) Lessee The Group leases various assets, including buildings, vehicles and IT equipment. Previously, the Group classified its leases either as operating leases or as finance leases based on whether the lease substantially transfers the risk and reward of owning the underlying assets. According to K-IFRS 1116, the Group recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for most of its leases, which means most of its leases are presented in the statement of financial position. For the right-of-use assets that do not satisfy the definition of an investment property, the Group presents those assets as the same item as the item that the corresponding underlying asset would have been presented for. Right-of-use assets that meet the definition of investment properties would be presented as investment properties. The Group presents lease liability as other financial liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position. iii) Regulation on lease terms On the date of initial application, a lease classified as an operating lease in accordance with K-IFRS 1017 is measured at present value of the remaining lease payments discounted at the incremental borrowing rate of the subsidiary as of January 1, 2019. However, the Group chose an exception that does not apply the lessee’s recognition, measurement and presentation on low value asset leases. The right-of-use asset is measured as follows: - The same amount as lease liability (pre-paid or incurred (unpaid) lease payments are adjusted). The Group applies this method to all leases. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 190 - 12 - When the Group applies K-IFRS 1116 to the leases classified as operating leases in accordance with K- IFRS 1017, following practical expedients are used: - Opening direct costs are excluded from the measurement of the right-of-use asset at the date of initial application. - An entity should apply K-IFRS 1037 ‘Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets’ right before the date of initial application to determine whether a lease is a loss-bearing contract and therefore conduct an impairment review. - The right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are not recognized for short-term leases (residual term less than a year) - If the contract includes a lease extension or exit option, use hindsight to determine the lease term. iv) Impacts to the financial statements a) Impacts at date of initial application At the date of initial application of K-IFRS 1116, the Group additionally recognized the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, and the impacts as of January 1, 2019 are as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions): Right-of-use assets presented as premises and equipment(*) Lease liability(*) January 1, 2019 435,791 377,030 (*) The differences have occurred due to prepaid, unpaid lease payment, transfer, etc. and there is no effect on retained earnings. When measuring lease liabilities for leases that were previously classified as operating lease, the Group used its incremental borrowing rate as of January 1, 2019 as the discount rate. The applied weighted-average incremental borrowing rate is 2.0~5.6%. Operating leases as of December 31, 2018 - Application of exemption rule for low value assets leases - Application of exemption rule for leases with remaining terms are less than 12 months at the time of transition Operating lease agreement after subtraction of exemption rule applied items as of December 31, 2018 Amount discounted with incremental borrowing rate at the date of initial application(January 1, 2019) Lease liabilities recognized at the date of initial application(January 1, 2019) January 1, 2019 398,147 (616) (187) 397,344 377,030 377,030 b) Impacts during the transition The Group recognized depreciation expenses and interest expenses instead of the operating lease expenses for the leases in line with K-IFRS 1116. The Group recognized depreciation expenses of 229,727 million Won and interest expenses of 9,086 million Won for the lease for the year ended December 31, 2019. ③ It is believed that the following issued, revised standards will not have a significant impact on the Group. - K-IFRS 2123 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments (Issued) - K-IFRS 1109 Financial Instrument (Revised) - K-IFRS 1028 Investment in Associates and Joint Ventures (Revised) - K-IFRS 1019 Employee Benefits (Revised) - K-IFRS 1115 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Revised) - Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2015-2017 Cycle The annual improvements include partial amendments of K-IFRS 1012 ‘Income Tax,’ K-IFRS 1023 ‘Borrowing Cost,’ K-IFRS 1103 ‘Business Combination’ and K-IFRS 1111 ‘Joint Arrangements’. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 13 - 191 2) - - - The details of K-IFRSs that have been issued and published as of the date of issue approval of financial statements but have not yet reached the effective date, and which the Group has not applied at an earlier date are as follows: Revised Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting Revised K-IFRS 1103 ‘Business Combinations’ Revised K-IFRS 1001 ‘Financial Statements Presentation’ and K-IFRS 1008 ‘Change and Error of Accounting Policy and Accounting Estimates’ It will be applied to period beginning on or after January 1, 2020. It is believed that revised standards listed above, will not have a significant impact on the company 3) The standards and interpretations that are newly adopted by the Group during the previous period, and the changes in accounting policies thereof are as follows: - Adoption of K-IFRS 1109 – Financial instruments The Group initially applied K-IFRS 1109 and related amendments made to other standards during the previous period, with January 1, 2018 as the date of initial application. K-IFRS 1109 introduces new rules on: 1) classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities, 2) impairment of financial assets, and 3) hedge accounting. Additionally, the Group adopted consequential amendments to K-IFRS 1037 Financial Instruments: Disclosures that were applied to the disclosures for 2018. a) Classification and measurement of financial assets All financial assets included in the scope of K-IFRS 1109 are subsequently measured at amortized cost or fair value based on the Group’s business model for the management of financial assets and the nature of the contractual cash flows of the financial assets. Debt instruments that are held within a business model whose objective is to collect the contractual cash flows, and that have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding are generally measured at amortized cost at the end of subsequent accounting periods (Financial assets at amortized cost). Debt instruments that are held within a business model whose objective is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and that have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding are generally measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVTOCI”)). All other debt instruments and equity instruments are measured at their fair value at the end of subsequent accounting periods, and any change in the fair value is recognized as profit or loss (Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”)). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Group may make the following irrevocable choice or designation at the time of initial recognition of a financial asset. The Group may make an irrevocable election to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument within the scope of this standard that is neither held for trading nor is a contingent consideration recognized by an acquirer in a business combination to which K-IFRS 1103 applies. At initial recognition, financial assets at amortized cost or FVTOCI may be irrevocably designated as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss mandatorily measured at fair value if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency. As of the date of initial application of K-IFRS 1109, there are no debt instruments classified either as financial assets at amortized cost or FVTOCI that are designated as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 192 - 14 - When debt instruments measured at FVTOCI are derecognized, the cumulative gain or loss recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment. On the other hand, for equity instruments designated as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, cumulative gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income are subsequently reclassified to retained earnings. Debt instruments measured subsequently at amortized cost or at FVTOCI are subject to impairment. The classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities in accordance with K-IFRS 1109 and K- IFRS 1039 as of January 1, 2018 are as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions): Classification in accordance with K-IFRS 1039 Classification in accordance with K-IFRS 1109 Amount in accordance with K-IFRS 1039 Reclassificat -ion Remeasure- ment(*2) Amount in accordance with K-IFRS 1109 Deposit Loans and receivables Deposit Financial assets at Loan and other financial assets at amortized cost Financial assets at FVTPL FVTPL Debt securities Financial assets at Financial assets at FVTPL FVTPL(*1) Equity securities Financial assets at Financial assets at Derivative assets Financial assets at Financial assets at FVTPL FVTPL(*1) Equity securities FVTPL AFS financial assets Equity securities AFS financial assets FVTPL(*1) Financial assets at FVTPL(*1) Financial assets at FVTOCI Debt securities AFS financial Financial assets at Debt securities AFS financial Financial assets at assets FVTPL Debt securities AFS financial assets assets FVTOCI Securities at amortized cost Debt securities HTM financial Securities at Loans Loans assets Loans and receivables Loans and receivables Derivative assets (Designated for hedging) Other financial Derivative assets (Designated for hedging) Loans and assets receivables amortized cost Financial assets at FVTPL (*1) Loan and other financial assets at amortized cost Derivative assets (Designated for hedging) Loan and other financial assets at amortized cost Total financial assets 8,870,835 25,972 2,654,027 47,304 - - - - 3,115,775 (2,137) 1,273,498 1,219 850,207 46,855 12,874,209 308,181 16,749,296 - - - - - 279,032 918 253,014,491 59,272 6,772,088 306,941,042 - - - - - - - - - - - - - 8,870,835 25,972 2,654,027 47,304 3,113,638 1,274,717 850,207 46,855 12,874,209 14,119 322,300 - 50 16,749,296 280,000 - 253,014,491 - 59,272 - 14,169 6,772,088 306,955,211 WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 15 - 193 Deposit due to customers Deposit due to customers Borrowings Debentures Debentures Equity-linked securities Derivatives liabilities Derivatives liabilities (Designated for hedging) Other financial liabilities Provision for financial guarantee Classification in Classification in accordance with K-IFRS 1039 Financial liabilities accordance with K-IFRS 1109 Financial liabilities at at FVTPL FVTPL Financial liabilities at amortized cost Financial liabilities at amortized cost Financial liabilities Financial liabilities at amortized cost Financial liabilities at amortized cost Financial liabilities at at FVTPL FVTPL Financial liabilities at amortized cost Financial liabilities Financial liabilities at amortized cost Financial liabilities at at FVTPL FVTPL Financial liabilities Financial liabilities at at FVTPL Derivatives liabilities (Designated for hedging) Financial liabilities at amortized cost Provision FVTPL Derivatives liabilities (Designated for hedging) Financial liabilities at amortized cost Financial liabilities at amortized cost Total financial liabilities Amount in accordance with K-IFRS 1039 Reclassifica- tion Remeasure- ment(*2) Amount in accordance with K-IFRS 1109 25,964 234,695,084 14,784,706 91,739 27,869,651 160,057 3,150,149 67,754 13,892,461 71,697 294,809,262 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 25,964 234,695,084 14,784,706 91,739 27,869,651 160,057 3,150,149 67,754 13,892,461 71,697 294,809,262 (*1) Under K-IFRS 1039, the embedded derivatives out of hybrid financial instruments were accounted for as derivative assets or liabilities if the criteria for separation of the embedded derivatives were met; and the host contracts in those instruments were recorded as available-for-sale financial assets or loans and receivables respectively. However, since K-IFRS 1109 requires financial instruments to be accounted for based on the terms of the entire financial instrument, hybrid financial assets are revalued and classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. (*2) The remeasurement effect due to expected credit losses is not included (The remeasurement effect of expected credit losses is as follows: b) Impairment of financial assets). At the date of the initial application of K-IFRS 1109, there were no financial assets or liabilities measured at FVTPL that were reclassified to FVTOCI or amortized cost category. The financial assets at FVTPL or FVTOCI that are reclassified to the amortized cost measurement category as of the date of initial application of K-IFRS 1109, and the related valuation gain or loss and fair value of the financial assets as of December 31, 2018 had it not been reclassified, are as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions): Account subject Category before the adoption of K-IFRS 1109 Amount of valuation gain/loss had it not been reclassified Fair value Debt securities(*) AFS financial assets 2 257,665 (*) Those financial assets that are removed from the books as of December 31, 2018 are not presented in the table above. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 194 - 16 - b) Impairment of financial assets The impairment model under K-IFRS 1109 reflects expected credit losses, as opposed to incurred credit losses under K-IFRS 1039. Under the impairment approach in K-IFRS 1109, it is no longer necessary for a credit event to have occurred before credit losses are recognized. Instead, the Group accounts for expected credit losses and changes in those expected credit losses. The amount of expected credit losses should be updated at each reporting date to reflect changes in credit risk since initial recognition. The Group is required to recognize the expected credit losses for financial instruments measured at amortized cost or FVTOCI (debt instrument), and unused loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts that are subject to the impairment provisions of K-IFRS 1109. In particular, K-IFRS 1109 requires the Group to measure the loss allowance for a financial instrument at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses (ECL) if the credit risk on that financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition, or if the financial instrument is a purchased or originated credit-impaired financial asset. If the credit risk of a financial instruments does not increase significantly after initial recognition (excluding “purchased or originated credit-impaired loans” - for financial assets already impaired at initial recognition), the Group measures the loss allowance on the financial instruments at the amount equivalent to the expected 12-month credit loss. Management assessed the impairment of the Group's financial assets, lending arrangements and financial guarantees at the date of initial application by using reasonable and supportive measures that can be used without undue cost or effort in determining the credit risk of the financial instruments at initial recognition in accordance with K-IFRS 1109 and in comparing above credit risk with the credit risk at the date of initial application. As of January 1, 2018, the results of the assessment are as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions): Classification in accordance with K-IFRS 1039 Classification in accordance with K-IFRS 1109 Loss allowance in accordance with K-IFRS 1039(A) Loss allowance in accordance with K-IFRS 1109 (B) Increases (B-A) HTM securities HTM financial Loans and receivables Loans and other financial assets at amortized cost AFS financial assets assets Loans and receivables Financial assets at FVTOCI Securities at amortized cost Loans and other financial assets at amortized cost Deposit Debt securities AFS securities Loans and other financial assets Payment guarantee Loan commitment Total c) Classification and measurement of financial liabilities 2,458 3,092 634 - - 4,236 5,078 4,236 5,078 1,827,785 2,076,873 249,088 183,247 192,924 9,677 66,115 2,079,605 104,985 2,387,188 38,870 307,583 One of the major changes related to the classification and measurement of financial liabilities as a result of the adoption of K-IFRS 1109 is the accounting for change in the fair value of financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss due to the changes in issuer’s own credit risk. The Group recognizes the effect of changes in the credit risk of financial liabilities designated as at FVTOCI in other comprehensive income, except for cases where it creates or enlarges accounting mismatch of the profit or loss. Changes in fair value due to credit risk of financial liabilities are not subsequently reclassified to profit or loss, but are reclassified as retained earnings when financial liabilities are derecognized. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 17 - 195 In accordance with K-IFRS 1039, the entire of changes in fair value of financial liabilities designated as at FVTPL are recognized in profit or loss. As of January 1, 2018, the Group designated 251,796 million Korean Won of FVTPL out of 294,813,795 million of financial liabilities to be measured at FVTPL, and recognized 133 million Korean Won as accumulated other comprehensive loss in relation to the changes in own credit risk of financial liabilities. d) Hedge accounting The new hedge accounting model maintains three types of hedge accounting. However, it introduced more flexibility in the types of transactions that are eligible for hedge accounting and expanded the types of hedging instruments and non-financial hedge items that qualify for hedge accounting. The standard related to the evaluation of hedge accounting has been amended as a whole, where it is now replaced by the principle of "economic relationship" between the hedged item and the hedging instrument. Retrospective assessment of the hedging effectiveness is no longer required. Additional disclosure requirements have been introduced in relation to the Group's risk management activities. In accordance with the transitional provisions of K-IFRS 1109 on hedge accounting, the Group adopted the hedge accounting provisions of K-IFRS 1109 prospectively from January 1, 2018. As of the date of initial application, the Group concluded that the hedging relationship in accordance with K-IFRS 1039 is appropriate for hedge accounting under K-IFRS 1109, thus the hedging relationship is considered to exist continually. Since the major conditions for hedging instruments and the hedged items are consistent, all hedging relationships are consistent within the effectiveness assessment requirements of K-IFRS 1109. The Group has not designated a hedging relationship in accordance with K-IFRS 1109 in which the hedge relationship would not have met the requirements for hedge accounting under K-IFRS 1039. e) Effect on equity as a result of adoption of K-IFRS 1109 The effect on equity due to the adoption of K-IFRS 1109 as of January 1, 2018 is as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions): - Impact on accumulated other comprehensive loss due to financial assets at FVTOCI, etc. Balance as of December 31, 2017 (prior to K-IFRS 1109) Adjustments Reclassification of available-for-sale financial assets to financial assets at FVTPL Recognition of expected credit losses of debt securities at FVTOCI Reclassification of available for sale financial assets(equity securities) to financial assets at FVTOCI Effect on changes in credit risk of financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss designated as upon initial recognition Others Income tax effect Balance as of January 1, 2018 (based on K-IFRS 1109) Amount (89,724) (392,176) (152,124) 4,293 (397,508) (133) 3,500 149,796 (481,900) Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 196 - 18 - - Retained earnings impact Balance as of December 31, 2017 (prior to K-IFRS 1109) Adjustments Reclassification of available-for-sale financial assets to financial assets at FVTPL Recognition of expected credit losses of debt instruments at FVTOCI Reclassification of available-for-sale financial assets(equity securities) to financial assets at FVTOCI Effect on revaluation of financial assets at amortized cost from loan and receivables or AFS financial assets Recognition of expected credit losses of financial assets at amortized cost which were previously loan and receivables Effect on provision for guarantees and unused loan commitments on liabilities Effect on changes in credit risk of financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss designated as upon initial recognition Others Income tax effect Balance as of January 1, 2018 (based on K-IFRS 1109) (2) Basis of consolidated financial statement presentation Amount 15,620,006 177,091 152,124 (4,293) 397,508 282 (240,683) (48,548) 133 (4,950) (74,482) 15,797,097 The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Group and the entities (including structured entities) controlled by the Group (and its subsidiaries, which is the “Group”). Control is achieved where the Group 1) has the power over the investee, 2) is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and 3) has the ability to use its power to affect its returns. The Group reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above. When the Group has less than a majority of the voting rights of an investee, it has power over the investee when the voting rights are sufficient to give it the practical ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee unilaterally. The Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether or not the Group's voting rights in an investee are sufficient to give it power, including: • The relative size of the Group's holding of voting rights and dispersion of holdings of the other vote holders; • Potential voting rights held by the Group, other vote holders or other parties; • Rights arising from other contractual arrangements; • Any additional facts and circumstances that indicate that the Group has, or does not have, the current ability to direct the relevant activities at the time that decisions need to be made, including voting patterns at previous shareholders' meetings. Income and expenses of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the date the Group gains control until the date when the Group ceases to control the subsidiary. The carrying amount of the non-controlling interest after the acquisition is the amount initially recognized plus the amount of proportionate interest of the non-controlling interest in the changes in equity since the acquisition. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owner of the Group and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Group’s accounting policies. All intra-group transactions and, related assets and liabilities, income and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 19 - 197 Non-controlling interest of a subsidiary are separately identified from the equity of the Group. Non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the entity's net assets in the event of liquidation may be initially measured either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests' proportionate share of the recognized amounts of the acquiree's identifiable net assets. The choice of measurement basis is made on a transaction-by-transaction basis. Other types of non-controlling interests are measured at fair value. The carrying amount of the non-controlling interest after the acquisition is the amount initially recognized with the amount entitled to the proportionate interest of the non-controlling interest when there are changes in equity since the acquisition. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owner of the Group and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. Changes in the Group’s ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Group losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the Group’s interests and the non- controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity and attributed to the owner of the parent company. When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, a gain or loss on disposal is calculated as the difference between (i) the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any retained interest and (ii) the previous carrying amount of the assets (including goodwill), and liabilities of the subsidiary and any non- controlling interests. When assets of the subsidiary are carried at revalued amounts or fair values and the related cumulative gain or loss has been recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity, the amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the relevant assets (i.e. reclassified to profit or loss or transferred directly to retained earnings). The fair value of any investment retained in the former subsidiary at the date when control is lost is recognized as the fair value on initial recognition for subsequent accounting under K-IFRS 1109 Financial Instruments or, when applicable, the cost on initial recognition of an investment in an associate or a joint venture. (3) Business combinations Acquisitions of subsidiaries and businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured as the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred by the Group in exchange for control of the acquiree, liabilities assumed by the Group for the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Group. Acquisition-related costs are generally recognized in profit or loss as incurred. At the acquisition date, the acquiree’s identifiable acquires assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities that meet the condition for recognition under K-IFRS 1103 are recognized at their fair value, except for the followings: • deferred tax assets or liabilities and assets or liabilities related to employee benefit arrangements are • recognized and measured in accordance with K-IFRS 1012 Income Taxes and K-IFRS 1019 Employee Benefits, respectively; liabilities or equity instruments related to share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree or share- based payment arrangements of the Group entered into to replace share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree are measured in accordance with K-IFRS 1102 Share-based Payment at the acquisition date; and • non-current assets (or disposal groups) that are classified as held for sale are measured in accordance with K-IFRS 1105 ‘Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations’ Any excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the fair value of the Group’s previously held equity interest (if any) in the acquiree over the net of identifiable assets and liabilities assumed of the acquiree at the acquisition date is recognized as goodwill. If, after reassessment, the Group’s interest in the fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets exceeds the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any), the excess is recognized immediately in net income as a bargain purchase gain. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 198 - 20 - When the consideration transferred by the Group in a business combination includes assets or liabilities resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement, the contingent consideration is measured at its acquisition-date fair value and included as part of the consideration transferred in a business combination. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration that qualify as measurement period adjustments are adjusted retrospectively, with corresponding adjustments against goodwill. Measurement period adjustments are adjustments that arise from additional information obtained during the ‘measurement period’ (which cannot exceed one year from the acquisition date) about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date. The subsequent accounting for changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration that do not qualify as measurement period adjustments depends on how the contingent consideration is classified. Contingent consideration that is classified as equity is not remeasured at subsequent reporting dates and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration other than the above is remeasured at subsequent reporting dates as appropriate, with the corresponding gain or loss being recognized in profit or loss. When a business combination is achieved in stages, the Group's previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured at fair value at the acquisition date (i.e., the date when the Group obtains control) and the resulting gain or loss, if any, is recognized in net income(or other comprehensive income, if applicable). Amounts arising from changes in value of interests in the acquiree prior to the acquisition date that have previously been recognized in other comprehensive income are recognized, identical to the treatment assuming interests are sold directly. In case where i) a common entity ultimately controls over all participating entities, or businesses, in a business combination transaction, prior to and after the transaction continuously, and ii) the control is not temporary, the transaction meets the definition of “business combination under common control” and it is deemed that the transaction only results in the changes in legal substance, and not economic substance, from the perspective of the ultimate controlling party. Thus, in such transactions, the acquirer recognizes the assets and liabilities of the acquiree in its financial statements at the book values as recognized in the ultimate controlling party’s consolidated financial statements, and the difference between the book value of consideration transferred to and the book value of net assets transferred in is recognized as equity. If the initial accounting for a business combination is not completed by the end of the reporting period in which the business combination occurred, the Group reports in consolidated financial statements the provisional amount of items that have not been accounted for. If there is new information about the facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date during the measurement period (see above), the Group retrospectively adjusts the provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date or recognizes additional assets and liabilities to reflect the information that would have affected the measurement of the amount recognized at the acquisition date if it had already known at the acquisition date. (4) Investments in joint ventures and associates An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence, and that is not a subsidiary or a joint venture. Significant influence is the power to participate in making decision on the financial and operating policy of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to net assets relating to the arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. The net income of current period and the assets and liabilities of the joint ventures and associates are incorporated in these consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accounting, except when the investment is classified as held for sale, in which case it is accounted for in accordance with K-IFRS 1105 Non- current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations. Under the equity method, an investment in the joint ventures and associates is initially recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Group's share of the net assets of the joint ventures and associates and any impairment. When the Group's share of losses of the joint ventures and associates exceeds the Group's interest in the associate, the Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. Additional losses are recognized only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the joint ventures and associates. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 21 - 199 Investment in joint ventures and associates are accounted for and applied with the equity method from the time the investee becomes an associate or a joint venture. Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group's share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the joint ventures and associates recognized at the date of acquisition is recognized as goodwill, which is included within the carrying amount of the investment. Any excess of the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over the cost of acquisition exists after the review, it is recognized immediately in net income. The requirements of K-IFRS 1028 - Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures to determine whether there has been a loss event are applied to identify whether it is necessary to recognize any impairment loss with respect to the Group’s investment in the joint ventures and associates. When necessary, the entire carrying amount of the investment (including goodwill) is tested for impairment in accordance with K-IFRS 1036 - Impairment of Assets as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount (higher of value in use and fair value less costs to sell) with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss recognized is not allocated to any asset (including goodwill), which forms part of the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of that impairment loss is recognized in accordance with K-IFRS 1036 to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases. The Group ceases to use the equity method from the time it fails meet the definition of an associate or a joint venture. Upon a loss of significant influence over the joint ventures and associates, the Group discontinues the use of the equity method and measures at fair value of any investment that the Group retains in the former joint ventures and associates from the date when the Group loses significant influence. The fair value of the investment is regarded as its fair value on initial recognition as a financial asset in accordance with K-IFRS 1109 Financial Instruments; Recognition and Measurement. The Group recognized differences between the carrying amount and fair value in net income and it is included in determination of the gain or loss on disposal of joint ventures and associates. The Group accounts for all amounts recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that joint ventures and associates on the same basis as would be required if the joint ventures and associates had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. Therefore, if a gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income by an associate or a joint venture would be reclassified to net income on the disposal of the related assets or liabilities, the Group reclassifies the gain or loss from equity to net income as a reclassification adjustment. When the Group’s ownership of interest in an associate or a joint venture decreases but the Group continues to maintain significant influence over an associate or a joint venture, the Group reclassifies to profit or loss the proportion of the gain or loss that had previously been recognized in other comprehensive income relating to that decrease in ownership interest if the gain or loss would be reclassified to profit or loss on the disposal of the related assets or liabilities. Meanwhile, if interest on associate or joint venture meets the definition of non- current asset held for sale, it is accounted for in accordance with K-IFRS 1105. The Group continues to use the equity method when an investment in an associate becomes an investment in a joint venture or an investment in a joint venture becomes an investment in an associate. There is no remeasurement to fair value upon such changes in ownership interests. When a subsidiary transacts with an associate or a joint venture of the Group, profits and losses resulting from the transactions with the associate or joint venture are recognized in the Group's consolidated financial statements only to the extent of interests in the associate or joint venture that are not related to the Group. The Group applies K-IFRS 1109 ‘Financial Instruments’, including the impairment requirements, to its long- term investment interests in associates and joint ventures that form part of its net investment without applying the equity method. In addition, when applying K-IFRS 1109 to long-term investments, the Group does not consider adjustments to the carrying amount required by K-IFRS 1028. Examples of such adjustments include an impairment assessment or an adjustment to the carrying amount of the long-term investment interest resulting from the allocation of losses to the investee in accordance with K-IFRS 1028. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 200 - 22 - (5) Investment in Joint operation A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. When the Group operates as a joint operator, it recognizes in relation to its interest in a joint operation: - its assets, including its share of any assets held jointly; - its liabilities, including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly; - its revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation; - its share of the revenue from the sale of the output by the joint operation; - its expenses, including its share of any expenses incurred jointly. The Group accounts for the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses relating to its interest in a joint operation in accordance with the K-IFRSs applicable to the particular assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. When the Group enters into a transaction with a joint operation in which it is a joint operator, such as a sale or contribution of assets, it is conducting the transaction with the other parties to the joint operation and, as such, the Group recognizes gains and losses resulting from such a transaction only to the extent of the other parties’ interests in the joint operation. When the Group enters into a transaction with a joint operation in which it is a joint operator, such as a purchase of assets, it does not recognize proportional share of profit or loss until the asset is sold to a third party. (6) Revenue recognition K-IFRS 1115 requires the recognition of revenues based on transaction price allocated to the performance obligation when or as the Group performs that obligation to the customer. Since revenues other than those from contracts with customers, such as interest revenue and loan origination fee (cost), are measured through effective interest rate method. 1) Revenues from contracts with customers The Group recognizes revenue when the Group satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good or service to a customer. When a performance obligation is satisfied, the Group shall recognizes as a revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to that performance obligation. The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Group is recognizing revenue by major sources as shown below: ① Fees and commission received for brokerage The fees and commission received for agency are the amount of consideration or fee expected to be entitled to receive in return for providing goods or services to the other parties with the Group acting as an agency, such as in the case of sales of bancassurance and beneficiary certificates. The majority of these fees and commission received for brokerage are from the business activities relevant to Banking segment. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 23 - 201 ② Fees and commission received related to credit The fees and commission received related to credit mainly include the lending fees received from the loan activity and the fees received in the L/C transactions. Except for the fees and commission accounted for in calculating the effective interest rate, it is generally recognized when the performance obligation has been performed. The majority of these fees and commission received related to credit are from the business activities relevant to Banking, Credit card and Investment banking segment. ③ Fees and commission received for electronic finance The fees and commission received for electronic finance include fees received in return for providing various kinds of electronic financial services through firm-banking and CMS. These fees are recognized as revenue immediately upon the completion of services. The majority of these fees and commission received for electronic finance are from the business activities relevant to Banking and Investment banking segment. ④ Fees and commission received on foreign exchange handling The fees and commission received on foreign exchange handling consist of various fees incurred when transferring foreign currency. The point of processing the customer's request is the time when performance obligation is satisfied, and revenue is immediately recognized when fees and commission are received after requests are processed. The business activities relevant to these fees and commission received on foreign exchange handling are substantially attributable to Banking segment. ⑤ Fees and commission received on foreign exchange The fees and commission received on foreign exchange consist of fees related to the issuance of various certificates, such as exchange, import and export performance certificates, purchase certificates, etc. The point of processing the customer's request is the time when performance obligation is satisfied, and revenue is immediately recognized when fees and commission are received after requests are processed. The business activities relevant to these fees and commission received on foreign exchange are substantially attributable to Banking segment. ⑥ Fees and commission received for guarantee The fees and commission received for guarantee include the fees received for the various warranties. The activities related to the warranty consist mainly of performance obligations satisfied over time and fees and commission are recognized over the guarantee period. The business activities relevant to these fees and commission received for guarantee are substantially attributable to Banking segment. ⑦ Fees and commission received on credit card The fees and commission received on credit card consist mainly of merchant account fees and annual fees. The Group recognizes merchant account fees by multiplying agreed commission rate to the amount paid by using the credit card. The annual fees are performance obligation satisfied over time and are recognized over agreed periods after the annual fees are paid in advance. The business activities relevant to these fees and commission received on credit card are substantially attributable to Credit cards segment. ⑧ Fees and commission received on securities business The fees and commission received on securities business consist mainly of fees and commission for the sale of beneficiary certificates, and these fees are recognized when the beneficiary certificates are sold to customers. The business activities relevant to these fees and commission received on securities business are substantially attributable to Banking and Investment banking segment. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 202 - 24 - ⑨ Fees and commission from trust management The fees and commission from trust management consist of fees and commission received in return for the operation and management services for entrusted assets. These operation and management services are performance obligations satisfied over time, and revenue is recognized over the service period. Among the fees and commission from trust management, variable considerations such as profit commission that are affected by the value of entrusted assets and base return of the future periods are recognized as revenue when limitations to the estimates are lifted. The majority of these fees and commission received for brokerage are from the business activities relevant to Banking segment. ⑩ Fees and commission received on credit Information The fees and commission received on credit Information are composed of the fees and commission received by performing credit investigation and proxy collection services. Credit investigation fees and commission are the amount received in return for verifying the information requested by the customer and are recognized as revenue at the time the verification is completed. Proxy collection service fees are recognized by multiplying the applicable rate to the collected amount at the time when collection services are completed. The majority of these fees and commission received for brokerage are from the business activities relevant to other segment. ⑪ Other fees Other fees are usually fees related to remittances, but include fees related to various other services provided to customers by the Group. These fees are recognized when transactions occur at the customers' request and services are provided, at the same time when commission are received. These other fees occur across all operating segments. 2) Revenues from sources other than contracts with customers ① Interest income Interest income on financial assets measured at FVTOCI and financial assets at amortized costs is measured using the effective interest method. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a debt instrument and of allocating the interest income over the expected life of the asset. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash flows to the instrument's initial unamortized cost over the expected period, or shorter if appropriate. Future cash flows include commissions and cost of reward points(limited to the primary component of effective interest rate) and other premiums or discounts that are paid or received between the contractual parties when calculating the effective interest rate, but does not include expected credit losses. All contractual terms of a financial instrument are considered when estimating future cash flows. For purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, interest revenue is recognized by applying the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortized cost of the financial asset from initial recognition. Even if the financial asset is no longer impaired in the subsequent periods due to credit improvement, the basis of interest revenue calculation is not changed from amortized cost to unamortized cost of the financial assets. ② Loan origination fees and costs The commission fees earned on loans, which is part of the effective interest of loans, is accounted for as deferred origination fees. Incremental costs related to the origination of loans are accounted for as deferred origination fees and is being added or deducted to/from interest income on loans using effective interest rate method. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 25 - 203 (7) Accounting for foreign currencies The Group’s consolidated financial statements are presented in Korean Won, which is the functional currency of the Group. At the end of each reporting period, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency at its prevailing exchange rates at the date. The effective portion of the changes in fair value of a derivative that qualifies as a cash flow hedge and the foreign exchange differences on monetary items that form part of net investment in foreign operations are recognized in equity. Assets and liabilities of the foreign operations subject to consolidation are translated into Korean Won at foreign exchange rates at the end of the reporting period. Except for situations in which it is required to use exchange rates at the date of transaction due to significant changes in exchange rates during the period, items that belong to profit or loss shall be measured by average exchange rate, with foreign exchange differences recognized as other comprehensive income and added to equity (allocated to non-controlling interests, if appropriate). When foreign operations are disposed, the controlling interest’s share of accumulated foreign exchange differences related to such foreign operations will be reclassified to profit or loss, while non-controlling interest’s corresponding share will not be reclassified. Adjustments to fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities, and goodwill arising from the acquisition of foreign operations will be treated as assets and liabilities of the corresponding foreign operation, and is translated using foreign exchange rates at the end of the period. The foreign exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income. (8) Cash and cash equivalents The Group is classifying cash on hand, demand deposits, interest-earning deposits with original maturities of up to three months on acquisition date, and highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value as cash and cash equivalents. (9) Financial assets and financial liabilities 1) Financial assets A regular way purchase or sale of financial assets is recognized or derecognized on the trade or settlement date. A regular way purchase or sale is a purchase or sale of a financial asset under a contract whose term requires delivery of the asset within the time frame established generally by regulation or convention in the marketplace concerned. On initial recognition, financial assets are classified into financial assets at FVTPL, financial assets at FVTOCI, and financial assets at amortized cost according to its business model and contractual cash flows. a) Business model The Group evaluates the way business is being managed, and the purpose of the business model for managing a financial asset best reflects the way information is provided to the management at its portfolio level. Such information considers the following: - The accounting policies and purpose specified for the portfolio, the actual operation of such policies. This includes strategy of the management focusing on the receipt of contractual interest revenue, maintaining a certain level of interest income, matching the duration of financial assets and the duration of corresponding liabilities to obtain the asset, and outflow or realization of expected cash flows from disposal of assets - The way the performance of a financial asset held under the business model is evaluated, and the way such evaluation is being reported to the management - The risk affecting the performance of the business model (and financial assets held under the business model), and the way such risk is being managed - The compensation plan for the management (e.g. whether the management is being compensated based on the fair value of assets or based on contractual cash flows received) - Frequency, amount, timing and reason for sale of financial assets in the past, and forecast of future sale activities. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 204 - 26 - b) Contractual cash flows The principal is defined to be the fair value of a financial assets at initial recognition. Interest is not only composed of consideration for the time value of money, consideration for the credit risk related to remaining principal at a certain period of time, and consideration for other cost (e.g. liquidity risk and cost of operation) and fundamental risk associated with lending, but also profit. When evaluating whether contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interests, the Group considers the contractual terms of the financial instrument. When a financial asset contains contractual conditions that modify the timing and amount of contractual cash flows, it is required to determine whether contractual cash flows that arise during the remaining life of the financial instrument due to such contractual condition are solely payments of principal and interest. The Group considers the following elements when evaluating the above: - Conditions that lead to modification of timing or amount of cash flows - Contractual terms that adjust contractual nominal interest, including floating rate features - Early payment features and maturity extension features - Contractual terms that limit the Group’s claim on cash flows arising from certain assets (e.g. non-recourse feature) ① Financial assets at FVTPL The Group is classifying those financial assets that are not classified as either financial assets at amortized cost or financial assets at FVTOCI, and those designated to be measured at FVTPL, as financial assets at FVTPL. Financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fair value, and related profit or loss is recognized in net income. Transaction costs related to acquisition at initial recognition is recognized in net income immediately upon its occurrence. It is possible to designate a financial asset as financial asset at FVTPL if at initial recognition: (a) it is possible to remove or significantly reduce recognition or measurement mismatch that may otherwise have occurred if not for its designation as financial asset at FVTPL; (b) the financial asset forms part of the Group’s financial instrument group (a group composed of a combination of financial asset or liability), is measured at fair value and is being evaluated for its performance, and such information is provided internally; and (c) the financial asset is part of a contract that contains one or more of embedded derivatives, and is a hybrid contract in which designation as financial asset at FVTPL is allowed under K-IFRS 1109 ‘Financial Instruments’. However, the designation is irrevocable. ② Financial assets at FVTOCI When financial assets are held under a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and when contractual cash flows from such financial assets are solely payments of principal and interest, the financial assets are classified as financial assets at FVTOCI. Also, for investments in equity instruments that are not held for short-term trade, an irrevocable election is available at initial recognition to present subsequent changes in fair value as other comprehensive income. At initial recognition, financial assets at FVTOCI is measured at its fair value plus any direct transaction cost, and is subsequently measured in fair value. However, for equity instruments that do not have a quotation in an active market and in which fair value cannot be measured reliably, they are measured at cost. The income tax effects related to the changes in fair value except for profit or loss items such as impairment losses (reversals), interest revenue calculated by using effective interest method, and foreign exchange gain or loss about debt instrument are recognized as other comprehensive income until the asset’s disposal. Upon derecognition, the accumulated other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to net income for FVTOCI (debt instrument), and reclassified within the equity for FVTOCI (equity instruments). WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 27 - 205 ③ Financial assets at amortized cost When financial assets are held under a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows, and when contractual cash flows from such financial assets are solely payments of principal and interest, the financial assets are classified as financial assets at amortized cost. At initial recognition, financial assets at amortized cost are recognized at fair value plus any direct transaction cost. Financial assets at amortized cost is presented at amortized cost using effective interest method, less any loss allowance. 2) Financial liabilities At initial recognition, financial liabilities are classified into either financial liabilities at FVTPL or financial liabilities at amortized cost. Financial liabilities are usually classified as financial liabilities at FVTPL when they are acquired with a purpose to repurchase them within a short period of time, when they are part of a certain financial instrument portfolio that is actually and recently being managed with a purpose of short-term profit and joint management by the Group at initial recognition, and when they are derivatives that do not qualify as hedging instruments. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value plus direct transaction cost at initial recognition, and are subsequently measured at fair value. Profit or loss arising from financial liabilities at FVTPL is recognized in net income when occurred. It is possible to designate a financial liability as financial liability at FVTPL if at initial recognition: (a) it is possible to remove or significantly reduce recognition or measurement mismatch that may otherwise have occurred if not for its designation as financial liability at FVTPL; (b) the financial asset forms part of the Group’s financial instrument group (a group composed of a combination of financial asset or liability) according to the Group’s documented risk management or investment strategy, is measured at fair value and is being evaluated for its performance, and such information is provided internally; and (c) the financial liability is part of a contract that contains one or more of embedded derivatives, and is a hybrid contract in which designation as financial liability at FVTPL is allowed under K-IFRS 1109 ‘Financial Instruments’. Financial liabilities designated as at FVTPL are initially recognized at fair value, with any direct transaction cost recognized in profit or loss, and are subsequently measured at fair value. Any profit or loss from financial liabilities at FVTPL are recognized in profit or loss. Financial liabilities not classified as financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at amortized cost. The Group is classifying liabilities such as deposits due to customers, borrowings and debentures as financial liabilities at amortized cost. 3) Reclassification Financial assets are not reclassified after initial recognition unless the Group modifies the business model used to manage financial assets. When the Group modifies the business model used to manage financial assets, all affected financial assets are reclassified on the first day of the first reporting period after the modification. 4) Derecognition Financial assets are derecognized when contractual rights to cash flows from the financial assets are expired, or when substantially all of risk and reward for holding financial assets is transferred to another entity as a result of a sale of financial assets. If the Group does not have and does not transfer substantially all of the risk and reward of holding financial assets with control of the transferred financial assets retained, the Group recognizes financial assets to the extent of its continuing involvement. If the Group holds substantially all the risk and reward of holding a financial asset, it continues to recognize that asset and proceeds are accounted for as collateralized borrowings. When a financial asset is fully derecognized, the difference between the book value and the sum of proceeds and accumulated other comprehensive income is recognized as profit or loss in case of FVTOCI (debt instruments), and as retained earnings for FVTOCI (equity instruments). Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 206 - 28 - In case when a financial asset is not fully derecognized, the Group allocates the book value into amounts retained in the books and removed from the books, based on the relative fair value of each portion at the date of sale, and based on the degree of continuing involvement. For the derecognized portion of the financial assets, the difference between its book value and the sum of proceeds and the portion of accumulated other comprehensive income attributable to that portion will be recognized in profit or loss in case of debt instruments and recognized in retained earnings in case of equity instruments. The accumulated other comprehensive income is distributed to the portion of book value retained in the books, and to the portion of book value removed from the books. The Group derecognizes financial liabilities when, and only when, the Group’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or have expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid and payable is recognized in profit or loss. When the Group exchanges with the existing lender one debt instrument into another one with the substantially different terms, such exchange is accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability. Similarly, the Group accounts for substantial modification of terms of an existing liability or part of it as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new liability. It is assumed that the terms are substantially different if the discounted present value of the cash flows under the new terms, including any fees paid net of any fees received and discounted using the original effective rate is at least 10 percent different from the discounted present value of the remaining cash flows of the original financial liability 5) Fair value of financial instruments Financial assets at FVTPL and financial assets at FVTOCI are measured and presented in consolidated financial statements at their fair values, and all derivatives are also subject to fair value measurement. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to exchange an asset or paid to transfer a liability in a recent transaction between independent parties that are reasonable and willing. Fair value is the transaction price of identical financial assets or financial liabilities generated in an active market. An active market is a market where trade volume is sufficient and objective price information is available due to the fact that bid and ask price differences are small. When trade volume of a financial instrument is low, when transaction prices within the market show large differences among them, or when it cannot be concluded that a financial instrument is being traded within an active market due to disclosures being extremely shallow, fair value is measured using valuation techniques based on alternative market information or using internal valuation techniques based on general and observable information obtained from objective sources. Market information includes maturity and characteristics, duration, similar yield curve, and variability measurement of financial instruments of similar nature. Fair value amount contains unique assumptions on each entity (the Group concluded that it is using assumptions applied in valuing financial instruments in the market, or risk-adjusted assumptions in case marketability does not exist). The market approach and income approach, which are valuation techniques used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments, both require significant judgment. Market approach measures fair value using either a recent transaction price that includes the financial instrument, or observable information on comparable firm or assets. Income approach measures fair value through discounting future cash flows with a discount rate reflecting market expectations, and revenue, operating income, depreciation, capital expenditures, income tax, working capital and estimated residual value of financial investments are being considered when deriving future cash flows. Valuation techniques such as the above include estimates based on the financial instruments’ complexity and usefulness of observable information in the market. The valuation techniques used in the evaluation of financial instruments are explained below. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 29 - 207 a) Financial assets at FVTPL and Financial assets at FVTOCI The fair value of equity securities included in financial assets at FVTPL and financial assets at FVTOCI category is recognized in the statement of financial position at its available market price. Debt securities traded in the over-the-counter market are generally recognized at an amount computed by an independent appraiser. When the Group uses the fair value determined by independent appraisers, the Group usually obtains three values from three different appraisers for each financial instrument, and selects the minimum amount without making additional adjustments. For equity securities without marketability, the Group uses the amount determined by the independent appraiser. The Group verifies the prices obtained from appraisers in various ways, including the evaluation of independent appraisers’ competency, indirect verification through comparison between appraisers’ price and other available market information, and reperformed by employees who have knowledge of valuation models and assumptions that appraisers used. b) Derivatives The Group’s transactions involving derivatives such as futures and exchange traded options are measured at market value. For exchange traded derivatives classified as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, the fair value is estimated using internal valuation techniques. If there are no publicly available market prices because they are traded over-the-counter, fair value is measured through internal valuation techniques. When using internal valuation techniques to derive fair value, the types of derivatives, base interest rate or characteristics of prices, or stock market indices are considered. When variables used in the internal valuation techniques are not observable information in the market, such variables may contain significant estimates. c) Adjustment of valuation amount The Group is exposed to credit risk when a counterparty to a derivative contract does not perform its contractual obligation, and the exposure amount is equal to the amount of derivative asset recognized in the statement of financial position. When the Group earns income through valuation of derivatives, such income is recognized as derivative asset in the statement of financial position. Some of the derivatives are traded in the market, but most of the derivatives are measured at estimated fair value derived from internal valuation models that use observable information in the market. As such, in order to estimate the fair value there should be an adjustment made to incorporate counterparty’s credit risk, and credit risk adjustment is being considered when valuing derivative assets such as over-the counter derivatives. The amount of financial liabilities is also adjusted by the Group’s own credit risk when valuing them. The amount of adjustment is derived from counterparty’s probability of default and loss given default. This adjustment considers contractual matters that are designed to reduce the Group’s exposure to each counterparty’s credit risk. When derivatives are under master netting arrangement, the exposure used in the computation of credit risk adjustment is a net amount after adding/deducting cash collateral received (or paid) from loss(or gain) position derivatives with the same counterparty. 6) Expected credit losses on financial assets The Group recognizes loss allowance on expected credit losses for the following assets: - Financial assets at amortized cost - Debt instruments measured at FVTOCI - Contract assets as defined by K-IFRS 1115 Expected credit losses are weighted-average value of a range of possible results, considering the time value of money, and are measured by incorporating information on current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions that are available without undue cost or effort. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 208 - 30 - The methods to measure expected credit losses are classified into following three categories in accordance with K-IFRS: - General approach: Financial assets that does not belong to below two models and unused loan commitments - Simplified approach: When financial assets are either trade receivables, contract assets or lease receivables - Credit impairment model: Purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets The measurement of loss allowance under general approach is differentiated depending on whether the credit risk has increased significantly after initial recognition. That is, loss allowance is measured based on 12-month expected credit loss when the credit risk has not increased significantly after initial recognition, while loss allowance is measured at lifetime expected credit loss when credit risk has increased significantly. Lifetime is the expected remaining life of the financial instrument up to the maturity date of the contract. The measurement of loss allowance under simplified approach is always based on lifetime expected credit loss, and loss allowance under credit impairment model is measured as the cumulative change in lifetime expected credit loss since initial recognition. a) Measurement of expected credit losses on financial asset at amortized cost The expected credit losses on financial assets at amortized cost is measured by the difference between the contractual cash flows during the period and the present value of expected cash flows. Expected cash inflows are computed for individually significant financial assets in order to calculate expected credit losses. When financial assets that are not individually significant, they are included in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and expected credit losses of the group are calculated collectively. Expected credit losses are deducted through loss allowance account, and when the financial asset is determined to be uncollectible, the loss allowance is written off from the books along with the related financial asset. When loan receivable previously written off is subsequently collected, the related loss allowance is increased and changes in loss allowance are recognized in profit or loss. b) Measurement of expected credit losses on financial asset at FVTOCI The measurement method of expected credit loss is identical to financial asset at amortized cost, but changes in the loss allowance is recognized in other comprehensive income. When financial assets at FVTOCI is disposed or repaid, the related loss allowance is reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income. (10) Offsetting financial instruments Financial assets and liabilities are presented as a net amount in the statements of financial position when the Group has an enforceable legal right and an intention to settle on a net basis or to realize an asset and settle the liability simultaneously. (11) Investment properties The Group classifies a property held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation as an investment property. Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs, less subsequent depreciation and impairment. Subsequent costs are included in the carrying amount of the asset or recognized as a separate asset if it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the assets will flow into the Group and the cost of an asset can be measured reliably, and the book value of a portion of an asset that are replaced by a subsequent expenditure is removed from the books. Routine maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 31 - 209 While land is not depreciated, all other investment properties are depreciated based on the depreciation method and useful lives of premises and equipment. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, and when it is deemed appropriate to change them, the effect of any change is accounted for as a change in accounting estimates. An investment property is derecognized from the consolidated financial statements on disposal or when it is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected even from its disposal. The gain or loss on the derecognition of an investment property is calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the property and is recognized in profit or loss in the period of the derecognition. (12) Premises and equipment Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. The cost of an item of premises and equipment is expenditure directly attributable to their purchase or construction, which includes any cost directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. It also includes the initial estimate of costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located. Subsequent costs are recognized in the carrying amount of an asset or as a separate asset (if appropriate) if it is probable that future economic benefit associated with the assets will flow into the Group and the cost of an asset can be measured reliably. Routine maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. While land is not depreciated, for all other premises and equipment, depreciation is charged to net income on a straight-line basis by applying the following estimated economic useful lives on the amount of cost or revalued amount less residual value. Buildings used for business purpose Structures in leased office Properties for business purpose Right-of-use assets Useful life 35 to 57 years 4 to 5 years 4 to 5 years Useful lives of the same kind or similar other premises and equipment The Group reassesses the depreciation method, the estimated useful lives and residual values of premises and equipment at the end of each reporting period. If changes in the estimates are deemed appropriate, the changes are accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate. When there is an indicator of impairment and the carrying amount of a premises and equipment item exceeds the estimated recoverable amount, the carrying amount of such asset is reduced to the recoverable amount. (13) Intangible assets and goodwill The Group is recognizing intangible assets measured at the manufacturing cost or acquisition cost plus additional incidental expenses less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. The Group’s intangible asset are amortized over the following economic lives using the straight-line method. The estimated useful life and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period. If changes in the estimates are deemed appropriate, the changes are accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate. Industrial property rights Development costs Software and others Useful life 10 years 5 years 4 to 10 years In addition, when an indicator that intangible assets are impaired is noted, and the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the asset, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 210 - 32 - Goodwill acquired in a business combination is included in intangible assets. Goodwill is not amortized, but is subject to an impairment test at the cash-generating unit level every year, and whenever there is an indicator that goodwill is impaired. Goodwill resulting from an acquisition of a business is carried at cost as established at the date of acquisition of the business less accumulated impairment losses, if any. Goodwill is allocated to each of the Group’s cash-generating unit (or groups of cash-generating units) that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit on a pro rata basis based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss for goodwill is recognized directly in profit or loss. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods. (14) Impairment of non-monetary assets Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives or intangible assets that are not yet available for use are tested for impairment annually, regardless of whether or not there is any indication of impairment. All other assets are tested for impairment by estimating the recoverable amount when there is an objective indication that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recoverable amount is the higher of value in use or net fair value, less costs to sell. If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount and such impairment loss is recognized immediately in net income. (15) Leases As the Group applied IFRS 16 using the revised retrospective method, the comparative financial information has not been prepared. The Group also applied K-IFRS 1017 and 2104. The accounting policies in accordance with K-IFRS 1017 and 2104 are separately disclosed. 1) Accounting policy applied as of January 1, 2019. The Group determines whether the agreement is a lease or includes a lease at the time of the agreement. In exchange for consideration in the contract, if the control over the use of the identified asset is transferred for a period of time, the contract is a lease or includes a lease. In determining whether a contract transfers control of the use of the identified asset, the Group uses the definition of a lease in IFRS 16. This accounting policy applies to contracts entered into as of January 1, 2019. ① The Group as a lessee The Group recognizes the right-of-use asset and the lease liability at the commencement date of the lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which comprises the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability, lease payments made at or before the commencement date(less any lease incentives received), initial direct costs, and an estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset, restoring the site on which it is located. The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated on a straight-line basis from the commencement of the lease to the end of the lease term. However, if the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the lessee by the end of the lease term or if the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the lessee will exercise a purchase option, the lessee depreciates the right-of-use asset same as a fixed asset from the commencement date to the end of the useful life of the underlying asset. The right-of-use asset may be reduced by an impairment of the underlying asset or adjusted by remeasurement of the lease liability. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that cannot be readily determined, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate. The Group generally uses the incremental borrowing rate. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 33 - 211 The lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following: - - Fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) Variable lease payments that depend on an index(or a rate), initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date Amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees The exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option, lease payments of the extended period if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise extension option, and payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising an option to terminate the lease - - The lease liability is subsequently increased be the interest expense recognized for the lease liability and decreased by reflecting the payment of the lease payments. The lease liability is remeasured if the future lease payments change depending on changes in the index(or a rate), changes in the expected amount to be paid under the residual value guarantee, and changes in the assessment of whether the purchase or extension option is reasonably certain to be exercised or not to exercise the terminate option. When remeasuring a lease liability, the related right-of-use asset is adjusted and if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset decreases to zero, the remeasurement amount is recognized in profit or loss. The Group applies its judgment when determining the lease term for some lease contracts that include the extension option. The assessment of whether the Group is reasonably certain to exercise the option significantly affects the lease term and therefore has a significant impact on the amount of lease liabilities and the right-of-use asset. In the statement of financial position, the Group classified the right-of-use assets that do not meet the definition of investment property as ‘premises and equipment’ and the lease liabilities as ‘other financial liabilities.’ The Group has chosen a practical expedient that does not recognize the right-of-use asset and lease liabilities for short-term leases with a lease term less than 12 months and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value. The Group recognizes the lease payments associated with those leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. ② The Group as a lessor At the date of the agreement or the effective date of the modification containing the lease element, the Group allocates the consideration of the contract to each lease element on the basis of its relative stand- alone price. As a lessor, the Group classifies its leases as either an operating lease or a finance lease at the commencement date. The Group subsequently judges whether the lease transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset. A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset, otherwise a lease is classified as an operating lease. If the agreement contains both lease and non-lease elements, the Group applies K-IFRS 1115 to allocate the consideration of the contract. The Group applies the derecognition and impairment provisions of K-IFRS 1109 to its net investment in the lease. The Group also carries out regular review of the unguaranteed residual value used to calculate total lease investment. The Group recognizes lease payments from operating lease as income on a straight-line basis. The accounting policy that the Group has applied as a lessor is not different from K-IFRS 1116. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 212 - 34 - 2) Accounting policy applied until January 1, 2019 The Group classifies a lease as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset to the lessee, and all lease contracts other than finance leases are classified as operating leases. ① The Group as a lessee In case of finance leases, the lesser amount of the present value of the minimum lease payments at the commencement date of the lease term or the fair value of the leased asset are recognized as financial lease assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position. Lease payments are allocated as interest expense and repayment of the lease liability so that the same period interest rate is calculated for the balance of the liability. Adjustment to the lease payments are accounted for as expenses during the period. The operating lease payments are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis if there is no other systematic basis that is more representative of the pattern in which benefit from the use of underlying asset. Adjustment lease payments from the operating leases are accounted for as expenses during the period in which they are incurred. ② The Group as a lessor The Group recognizes a finance lease receivable equal to the present value of the minimum lease and the non-guaranteed residual value, which is the net investment of the finance lease. The accounting for recognizing interest income by reporting period is carried out on a financial lease receivable after the commencement date of the lease term by applying a method in which a certain interest rate of the Group’s net investment in the lease is calculated. The Group recognizes income from lease payments of operating lease on a straight line basis over the lease term, and the direct costs of the lease incurred during the negotiation and contract phase of the operating lease is added to the carrying value of the lease asset and recognized as an expense over the lease term on a straight-line basis. Operating lease assets are included in other assets and are depreciated over their economic useful life. (16) Derivative instruments Derivative instruments are classified as forwards, futures, options and swaps, depending on the types of transactions and are classified at the point of transaction as either trading or hedging based on its purpose. Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value at the date of contract and are subsequently measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognized in net income immediately unless the derivative is designated or effective as a hedging instrument. If derivatives have been designated as hedging instruments and if it is effective, the point of recognition of gain or loss depends on the characteristics of hedging relationship. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 35 - 213 Derivatives that have positive (+) fair values are recognized as financial assets and those that have negative (-) fair values are recognized as financial liabilities. Derivatives are not offset in the consolidated financial statements unless they have legally enforceable right to set off or are intended to set off. 1) Embedded derivatives Embedded derivatives are components of a hybrid financial instrument that includes a non-derivative host contract. It has an effect of modifying part of cash flows of the hybrid financial instrument similar to an independent derivative. Embedded derivatives that are part of a hybrid contract of which the host contract is a financial asset within the scope of K-IFRS 1109 is not separated. The classification is done by considering the hybrid contract as a whole, and subsequent measurement is either at amortized cost or fair value. If embedded derivatives are part of a hybrid contract of which the host contract is not a financial asset within the scope of K-IFRS 1109 (e.g. financial liability), then these are treated as separate derivatives if embedded derivatives meet the definition of a derivative, characteristics & risk of the embedded derivatives are not closely related to that of host contract, and if the host contract is not measured at FVTPL. 2) Hedge accounting The Group is applying K-IFRS 1109 in regard to hedge accounting. The Group is designating certain derivatives as hedging instrument against fair value changes in relation to the interest rate risk, foreign currency translation and interest rate risk, and foreign currency translation risk. The Group is documenting the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items at the commencement of hedging in accordance with their purpose and strategy. Also, the Group documents at the commencement and subsequent dates whether the hedging instrument effectively counters the changes in fair value of hedged items. A hedging instrument is effective only when it meets all the following criteria: ㆍ When there is an economic relationship between the hedged items and hedging instruments. ㆍ When the effect of credit risk is not stronger than the change in value due to the economic relationship between the hedged items and hedging instruments. ㆍ When the hedge ratio of hedging relationship is equal to the proportion of the number of items that the group actually hedges and the number of hedging instruments that the Group actually uses to hedge the number of hedged items. When a hedging relationship no longer meets the hedging effectiveness requirements related to hedge ratio, but when the purpose of risk management on designated hedging relationship is still maintained, the hedge ratio of the hedging relationship is adjusted so that hedging relationship may meet the requirements again (Hedge ratio readjustment). The Group has designated derivatives as hedging instrument except for the portion on foreign currency basis spread. The fair value change due to foreign currency basis spread is recognized in other comprehensive income and is accumulated in equity. If the hedged item is related to transactions, the accumulated other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss when the hedged item affects the profit or loss. However, when non-monetary items are subsequently recognized due to hedged items, the accumulated equity is removed from the equity directly, and is included in the initial book value of the recognized non-monetary items. Such transfers does not affect other comprehensive income. But if part or all of accumulated equity is not expected to be recovered in the future periods, the amount not expected to be recovered is immediately reclassified to profit or loss. If the hedged item is time-related, then the foreign currency basis spread on the day the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument that is related to the hedged item is reclassified to profit or loss over the term of the hedge. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 214 3) Fair value hedge - 36 - Gain or loss arising from valid hedging instrument is recognized in profit or loss. However, when the hedging instrument mitigates risks on equity instruments designated as financial assets at FVTOCI, related gain or loss is recognized in other comprehensive income. The book value of hedged items that are not measured in fair value is adjusted by the changes in fair value arising from the hedged risk, with resulting gain or loss reflected in net income. In case of debt instruments measured at FVTOCI, book value is an amount that is already adjusted to fair value and thus gain or loss arising from the hedged risk is recognized in profit or loss instead of other comprehensive income without adjustments in book value. When the hedged item is equity instruments measured at FVTOCI, the gain or loss arising from hedged risk is retained at other comprehensive income in order to match the gain or loss with hedging instruments. When gains or losses arising from the hedged risk are recognized in profit or loss of the current term, they are recognized as items related to the hedged items. Hedge accounting ceases to apply only when hedging relationship (or part of it) does not meet the requirements of hedge accounting (even after hedging relationship readjustment, if applicable). This treatment holds in case of lapse, disposal, expiry and exercise of hedging instruments, and this cease of treatment applies prospectively. The fair value adjustments made to book value of hedged item due to hedged risk is amortized from the date of discontinuance of hedge accounting and is recognized in profit or loss. 4) Cash flow hedge The Group recognizes the effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives and other valid hedging instruments that are designated and qualified as cash flow hedges in other comprehensive income to the extent of cumulative fair value changes of the hedged item from the starting date of hedge accounting and it is cumulated in the cash flow hedge reserve. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in net income. Amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity are reclassified to net income when the hedged item affects net income. However, when non-monetary assets or liabilities are subsequently recognized due to expected transactions involving hedged items, the valuation gain or loss accumulated in the equity as other comprehensive income is removed from the equity and included in the initial book value of the recognized non-monetary assets or liabilities. Such transfers does not affect other comprehensive income. Also, if the cash flow hedge reserve is loss and accumulated other comprehensive income is a loss and part or all of the losses are not expected to be recovered in the future periods, the said amount is immediately reclassified to profit or loss. Hedge accounting ceases to apply only when hedging relationship (or part of it) does not meet the requirements of hedge accounting (even after hedging relationship readjustment, if applicable). This treatment holds in case of lapse, disposal, expiry and exercise of hedging instruments, and this cease of treatment applies prospectively. At the point of cessation of cash flow hedge, the valuation gain or loss recognized as accumulated other comprehensive income continues to be recognized as equity, and is reclassified to profit or loss when the expected transaction is ultimately recognized as profit or loss. However, when transactions are no longer expected to occur, the valuation gain or loss of hedging instrument recognized as accumulated other comprehensive income is immediately reclassified to profit or loss. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 37 - 215 (17) Assets (or disposal group) held for sale The Group classifies a non-current asset (or disposal group) as held for sale if its carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. Non-current assets (and disposal groups) classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their previous carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. (18) Provisions Provisions are recognized if it has present or contractual obligations as a result of the past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation is reliably estimated. A provision is not recognized for the future operating losses. The Group recognizes provisions related to the payment guarantees, loan commitment and litigations. Under the terms of lease agreement, the cost incurred by the Group to recover the leased asset to its original state are recognized as provisions at the commencement of the lease or during a specific period in which the obligation is incurred as a result of the using the asset. The provisions are measured as the best estimate of the expenditure required to recover the asset, which is regularly reviewed and sated to the new situation. Where there are a number of similar obligations, the probability that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the obligations as a whole. Although the likelihood of outflow for any one item may be small, if it is probable that some outflow of resources will be needed to settle the obligations as a whole, a provision is recognized. At the end of each reporting period, the remaining provision balance is reviewed an assessed to determine if the current best estimate is being recognized. (19) Equity instruments issued by the Group 1) Capital and compound financial instruments The Group classifies a financial instrument that it issues as a financial liability or an equity instrument in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement. A financial liability is a contractual obligation to deliver cash or another financial asset to another entity. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. The compound financial instruments are financial instruments where it is neither a financial liability nor an equity instrument because it was designed to contain both equity and debt elements. If the Group reacquires its own equity instruments, the consideration paid including the direct transaction costs (net of tax expense) are presented as a deduction from total equity until such instruments are retired or reissued. When these instruments are reissued, the consideration received (net of direct transaction costs) is included in the shareholder’s equity. 2) Hybrid securities The Group classifies hybrid securities that have the unconditional right to avoid contractual obligations, such as to deliver cash or other financial assets in relation to financial instruments into equity instruments and presents as part of equity. Meanwhile, hybrid securities issued by subsidiaries of the group are classified as non-controlling interests according to the criteria, and the distribution paid is treated as net profit attributable to non-controlling interests in the consolidated comprehensive income statement. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 216 - 38 - (20) Financial guarantee contracts A financial guarantee contract is a contract where the issuer must pay a certain amount of money in order to compensate losses suffered by the creditor when debtor defaults on a debt instrument in accordance with original or modified contractual terms. A financial guarantee is initially measured at fair value and is subsequently measured at the higher of the amounts below unless it is designated to be measured at FVTPL or when it arises from disposal of an asset. - Loss allowance in accordance with K-IFRS 1109 - Initial book value less accumulated profit measured in accordance with K-IFRS 1115 (21) Employee benefits and pensions The Group recognizes the undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the services rendered by the employees. Also, the Group recognizes expenses and liabilities in the case of accumulating compensated absences when the employees render services that entitle their right to future compensated absences. Similarly, the Group recognizes expenses and liabilities for customary profit distribution or bonuses when the employees render services, even though the Group does not have legal obligation to do so because it can be construed as constructive obligation. The Group is operating defined contribution plans and defined benefit plans. Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognized as an expense when employees have rendered services entitling them to receive the benefits. For defined benefit plans, the defined benefit liability is calculated through an actuarial assessment using the projected unit credit method every end of the reporting period, conducted by a professional actuaries. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the return on plan assets (excluding the amount included in net interest from net defined benefit liability (asset)), and the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling is reflected immediately in the separate statement of financial position with a charge or credit recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income is not reclassified to profit or loss in the subsequent periods. Past service cost is recognized in profit or loss in the period of a plan amendment. Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate at the beginning of the period to the net defined benefit liability or asset. Defined benefit costs are composed of service cost (including current service cost and past service cost, as well as gains and losses on settlements), net interest expense (income) and remeasurement. The Group presents the service cost and net interest expense (income) components in profit or loss, and the remeasurement component in other comprehensive income. Curtailment gains and losses are accounted for as past service costs. The retirement benefit obligation recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position represents the actual deficit or surplus in the Group’s defined benefit plans. Any surplus resulting from this calculation is recognized as an asset limited to the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plans or reductions in future contributions to the plans. Liabilities for termination benefits are recognized at the earlier of either the date when the Group is no longer able to cancel its proposal for termination benefits or the date when the Group has recognized the cost of restructuring that accompanies the payment of termination benefits. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 39 - 217 (22) Income taxes Income tax expense is composed of current tax and deferred tax. That is, income tax expense is composed of taxes payable or refundable during the period and deferred taxes calculated by applying asset-liability method to taxable and deductible temporary differences arising from operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Temporary differences are the differences between the carrying values of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their tax bases. Deferred income tax benefit or expense is recognized for the change in deferred tax assets or liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured as of the reporting date using the enacted or substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or asset is realized. Deferred tax assets, including the carryforwards of unused tax losses, are recognized to the extent it is probable that the deferred tax assets will be realized. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset if, and only if, the Group has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities, and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority or when the entity intends to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis with different taxable entities. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred liabilities are not recognized if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax assets or liabilities are not recognized if they arise from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. Current and deferred taxes are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity or when it arises from business combination. The tax uncertainty arises from the compensation claim filed by the Group, and refund litigation for the amount of tax levied by the tax authority due to differences in tax law analysis. In response, the Group paid taxes in accordance with K-IFRS 2123 due to the tax authority’s claim, but recognized as a corporate tax asset if it is highly probable of a refund in the future. (23) Criteria of calculating earnings per share (“EPS”) Basic EPS is a calculation of net income per each common stock. It is calculated by dividing net income attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is calculated by adjusting the earnings and number of shares for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares. (24) Share-based payment For cash-settled share-based payment transactions that provide cash in return for the goods or services received, the Group measures the goods or services received, and the corresponding liability at the fair value and recognizes as employee benefit expenses and liabilities during the vesting period. The fair value of the liability is remeasured at the end of each reporting period and the settlement date until the liability is settled, and changes in fair value are recognized as employee benefits. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 218 - 40 - 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS The significant accounting estimates and assumptions are continuously being evaluated based on numerous factors including historical experiences and expectations of future events considered to be reasonably possible. Actual results can differ from those estimates based on such definitions. The accounting estimates and assumptions that contain significant risk of materially changing current book values of assets and liabilities in the next accounting periods are as follows: (1) Income taxes The Group has recognized current and deferred taxes based on best estimates of expected future income tax effect arising from the Group’s operations until the end of the current reporting period. However, actual tax payment may not be identical to the related assets and/or liabilities already recognized, and these differences may affect current taxes and deferred tax assets/liabilities at the time when income tax effects are finalized. Deferred tax assets relating to tax losses carried forward and deductible temporary differences are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the tax losses carried forward and the deductible temporary differences can be utilized. In this case the Group’s evaluation considers various factors such as estimated future taxable profit based on forecasted operating results, which are based on historical financial performance. The Group is reviewing the book value of deferred tax assets every end of the reporting period and in the event that the possibility of earning future taxable income changes, the deferred tax assets are adjusted up to taxable income sufficient to use deductible temporary differences. (2) Valuation of financial instruments Financial assets at FVTPL and FVTOCI are recognized in the consolidated financial statements at fair value. All derivatives are measured at fair value. Valuation techniques are required in order to determine fair values of financial instruments where observable market prices do not exist. Financial instruments that are not actively traded and have low price transparency will have less objective fair value and require broad judgment in liquidity, concentration, uncertainty in market factors and assumption in price determination and other risks. As described in Note 2-(9)-5), ‘Fair value of financial instruments’, when valuation techniques are used to determine the fair value of a financial instrument, various general and internally developed techniques are used, and various types of assumptions and variables are incorporated during the process. (3) Impairment of financial instruments K-IFRS 1109 requires entities to measure loss allowance equal to 12-month expected credit losses or lifetime expected credit losses after classifying financial assets into one of the three stages, which depends on the degree of increase in credit risk after their initial recognition. Stage 1 Allowance for expected credit losses Credit risk has not significantly increased since initial recognition (*) Expected 12-month credit losses: Expected credit losses due to possible defaults on financial instruments within a 12-month period from the year-end. Stage 3 Stage 2 Credit risk has significantly increased since initial recognition Expected lifetime credit losses: Expected credit losses from all possible defaults during the expected lifetime of the financial instruments. Credit has been impaired (*) Credit risk may be considered not to have been significantly increased when credit risk is low at year-end. The Group has estimated the allowance for credit losses based on reasonable and supportable information that was available without undue cost or effort at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. Probability of default (PD) and Loss given default (LGD) for each category of financial asset is being calculated by considering factors such as debtor type, credit rating and portfolio. The estimates are regularly being reviewed in order to reduce discrepancies with actual losses. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 41 - 219 In measuring the expected credit losses, the Group is using reasonable and supportable macroeconomic indicators such as economic growth rates, interest rates, market index rates, etc., in order to forecast future economic conditions. The Group is conducting the following procedures to estimate and apply future economic forecast information. - Development of prediction models by analyzing the correlation between default rates of corporate and retail exposures per year and macroeconomic indicators - Calculation of predicted default rate incorporating future economic forecasts by applying estimated macroeconomic indicators provided by verified institutions such as Bank of Korea and National Assembly Budget Office to the prediction model developed. At the end of every reporting period, the Group evaluates whether credit risk reflecting forward-looking information has significantly been increased since the date of initial recognition. When evaluating whether credit risk has significantly been increased, the changes in the probability of default over the financial instrument’s remaining life is used instead of changes in the amount of expected credit losses. The Group performs the above evaluation with distinctions made to corporate and retail exposures, and indicators of significant increase in credit risk are as follows: Corporate Exposures Asset quality level ‘Precautionary’ or lower More than 30 days past due ‘Warning’ level in early warning system Debtor experiencing financial difficulties (Capital impairment, Adverse opinion or Disclaimer of opinion by external auditors) Significant decrease in credit rating (*) Retail Exposures Asset quality level ‘Precautionary’ or lower More than 30 days past due Significant decrease in credit rating(*) (*) Determining whether there has been a significant decrease in the credit rating of corporate and retail exposures applies only to credit ratings that are measured through 12-month expected credit loss. The Woori Bank, which is an important subsidiary of the Group, has applied the above indicators of significant decrease in credit rating since initial recognition as follows, and the estimation method is regularly being monitored. Corporate Retail Credit rating AAA ~ A+ A- ~ BBB BBB- ~ BB+ BB ~ BB- 1 ~ 3 4 ~ 5 6 ~ 10 Significant increased indicator of the credit rating More than or equal to 4 steps More than or equal to 3 steps More than or equal to 2 steps More than or equal to 1 step More than or equal to 3 steps More than or equal to 2 steps More than or equal to 1 step The Group sees no significant increase in credit risk after initial recognition for debt securities, etc. with a credit rating of A + or higher, which are deemed to have low credit risk at the end of the reporting period The Group concludes that credit is impaired when financial assets are under conditions stated below: - When principal of loan is overdue for 90 days or longer due to significant deterioration in credit - For loans overdue for less than 90 days, when it is determined that not even a portion of the loan will be recovered unless claim actions such as disposal of collaterals are taken - When other objective indicators of impairment has been noted for the financial asset. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 220 - 42 - The Group determines which loan is subject to write-off in accordance with internal guidelines, and writes off loan receivables when it is determined that the loans are practically irrecoverable. For example, loans are practically irrecoverable when application is made for rehabilitation under the Debtor Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Act and loans are confirmed as irrecoverable by the court’s decision to waive debtor’s obligation, or when it is impossible to recover the loan amount through legal means such as auctioning of debtor’s assets or through any other means of recovery available. Notwithstanding the write-off, the Group may still exercise its right of collection after the asset has been written off in accordance with its collection policies. (4) Defined benefit plan The Group operates a defined benefit pension plan. Defined benefit obligation is calculated at every end of the reporting period by performing actuarial valuation, and estimation of assumptions such as discount rate, expected wage growth rate and mortality rate is required to perform such actuarial valuation. The defined benefit plan, due to its long-term nature, contains significant uncertainties in its estimates. 4. RISK MANAGEMENT The Group’s operating activity is exposed to various financial risks. The Group is required to analyze and assess the level of complex risks, and determine the permissible level of risks and manage such risks. The Group’s risk management procedures have been established to improve the quality of assets for holding or investment purposes by making decisions as how to avoid or mitigate risks through the identification of the source of the potential risks and their impact. The Group has established an approach to manage the acceptable level of risks and reduce the excessive risks in financial instruments in order to maximize the profit given risks present, for which the Group has implemented processes for risk identification, assessment, control, and monitoring and reporting. The risk is managed by the risk management department in accordance with the Group’s risk management policy. The Risk Management Committee makes decisions on the risk strategies such as the allocation of risk capital and the establishment of acceptable level of risk. (1) Credit risk Credit risk represents the possibility of financial losses incurred when the counterparty fails to fulfill its contractual obligations. The goal of credit risk management is to maintain the Group’s credit risk exposure to a permissible degree and to optimize its rate of return considering such credit risk. 1) Credit risk management The Group considers the probability of failure in performing the obligation of its counterparties, credit exposure to the counterparty, the related default risk and the rate of default loss. The Group uses the credit rating model to assess the possibility of counterparty’s default risk; and when assessing the obligor’s credit grade, the Group utilizes credit grades derived using statistical methods. In order to manage credit risk limit, the Group establishes the appropriate credit line per obligor, company or industry. It monitors obligor’s credit line, total exposures and loan portfolios when approving the loan. The Group mitigates credit risk resulting from the obligor’s credit condition by using financial and physical collateral, guarantees, netting agreements and credit derivatives. The Group has adopted the entrapment method to mitigate its credit risk. Credit risk mitigation is reflected in qualifying financial collateral, trade receivables, guarantees, residential and commercial real estate and other collaterals. The Group regularly performs a revaluation of collateral reflecting such credit risk mitigation. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 43 - 221 2) Maximum exposure to credit risk The Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk shows the uncertainties related to the maximum possible variation of financial assets’ net value as a result of changes in the specific risk factors, prior to the consideration of collaterals that are recorded at net book value after allowances and other credit enhancements.

Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 226 (2) Market risk - 48 - Market risk is the possible risk of loss arising from trading position and non-trading position as a result of the volatility of market factors such as interest rates, stock prices and foreign exchange rates. 1) Market risk management Market risk management refers to the process of making and implementing decisions for the avoidance, acceptance or mitigation of risks by identifying the underlying source of the risks and measuring its level, and evaluating the appropriateness of the level of accepted market risks. a) Trading activities The Group uses both a standard-based and an internal model-based approach to measure market risk. The standard-based approach is used to calculate individual market risk of owned capital while the internal model-based approach is used to calculate general capital market risk and managing internal risk. The Value at Risk (VaR) methodology is used to manage and measure market risk. Woori Bank, a subsidiary of the Group, uses the internal model approved by the Financial Supervisory Service to measure the VaR using the Historical Simulation Method based on a 99% confidence level and a 10-day retention period, and calculates the required capital risk for calculating the BIS ratio. For internal management purposes, limit management is performed on a daily basis measuring VaR based on a 99% confidence and 1 day retention period. In addition, Woori Bank perform a daily verification that compares VaR measurement and profit and loss to verify the suitability of the model. The minimum, maximum and average VaR of the Group for the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and the VaR of the Group as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, are as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions): Risk factor Interest rate Stock price Foreign currencies Commodity price Diversification Total VaR(*) December 31, 2019 5,052 3,730 5,028 - (6,233) 7,577 For the year ended December 31, 2019 Average Maximum Minimum 1,176 5,725 1,146 5,935 4,395 6,469 - 32 (2,339) (9,229) 4,378 8,932 3,406 3,203 5,033 1 (5,127) 6,516 December 31, 2018 3,107 2,353 4,972 - (4,445) 5,987 For the year ended December 31, 2018 Average Maximum Minimum 1,730 1,138 3,439 - (1,815) 4,492 3,702 2,669 4,678 3 (4,869) 6,183 5,528 5,081 6,136 24 (8,155) 8,614 (*) VaR (Value at Risk): Retention period of 1 day, Maximum expected losses under 99% level of confidence. b) Non-trading activities For non-trading sectors of the bank, consolidated trusts and subsidiaries of the Bank, the risk is managed and measured by △NII(change in Net Interest Income) and △EVE(change in Economic Value of Equity) through NII(Net Interest Income) and NPV(Net Present Value) simulation, and for the remaining subsidiaries, the risk is managed and measured with interest rate EaR(Earning at Risk, maximum of the expected change for profit or loss) and interest rate VaR that are in accordance with BIS Framework. NII is primarily an indicator of changes in profit from short-term changes in interest rates and is measured by deducting the interest expenses on the liability from the interest income from the asset. NPV is primarily an indicator of the risk of an economic value perspective resulting from unfavorable changes in interest rates and is measured by subtracting the present value of the liability from the present value of the asset. △NII represents a change in net interest income that may occur over a certain period (e.g., 1 year) due to unfavorable changes in interest rates, and △EVE indicates the economic value changes in equity capital that could be caused by changes in interest rates affecting the present value of asset, liabilities, and others. The interest rate EaR represents the maximum amount of decrease in net interest income that could result from unfavorable changes in interest rate over a certain period (e.g., 1 year), and the interest rate VaR represents the maximum expected loss that indicates how much net asset value can decrease at present or in the future due to unfavorable changes in interest rates.

The financial liabilities that are relevant to liquidity risk are incorporated within the scope of risk management. Derivatives instruments are excluded from those financial liabilities as they reflect expected cash flows for a pre-determined period. Assets and liabilities are grouped by account under Asset Liability Management (“ALM”) in accordance with the characteristics of the account. The Group manages liquidity risk by identifying the maturity gap and such gap ratio through various cash flows analysis (i.e. based on remaining maturity and contract period, etc.), while maintaining the gap ratio at or below the target limit. 2) Maturity analysis of non-derivative financial liabilities a) Cash flows of principals and interests by remaining contractual maturities of non-derivative financial liabilities are as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions): Financial liabilities at FVTPL Deposits due to customers Borrowings Debentures Lease liabilities Other financial liabilities Total Financial liabilities at FVTPL Deposits due to customers Borrowings Debentures Other financial liabilities Total Within 3 months 4 to 6 months December 31, 2019 10 to 12 months 7 to 9 months 1 to 5 years Over 5 years Total 115,156 - 166,474,535 36,697,168 8,596,202 2,948,384 2,378,211 2,894,577 46,072 42,549 60,981 11,242,367 188,852,543 42,643,659 - 24,634,859 2,162,846 3,330,658 37,420 119,633 30,285,416 - 31,233,844 1,880,424 2,466,142 35,210 10,344 35,625,964 - 6,590,119 3,682,214 19,211,409 232,985 71,561 29,788,288 - 115,156 1,877,594 267,508,119 520,936 19,791,006 2,537,391 32,818,388 40,698 434,934 14,165,526 2,660,640 7,637,259 334,833,129 Within 3 months 4 to 6 months December 31, 2018 10 to 12 months 7 to 9 Months 1 to 5 years Over 5 years Total 191,825 - 145,187,689 33,825,662 2,846,294 6,373,835 2,416,483 2,153,916 14,240,022 44,572 168,147,287 39,133,011 - 22,186,833 1,874,069 2,201,070 169,996 26,431,968 - 42,046,740 1,607,985 2,584,230 1,201 46,240,156 - 7,098,907 3,156,128 18,955,400 90,615 29,301,050 - 191,825 1,870,334 252,216,165 16,500,328 642,017 30,714,176 2,403,077 2,288,560 16,834,966 7,203,988 316,457,460 WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 53 - 231 b) Cash flows of principals and interests by expected maturities of non-derivative financial liabilities are as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions): Financial liabilities at FVTPL Deposits due to customers Borrowings Debentures Lease liabilities Other financial liabilities Total Financial liabilities at FVTPL Deposits due to customers Borrowings Debentures Other financial liabilities Total Within 3 months 115,156 175,309,271 8,596,202 2,378,211 46,072 11,242,367 197,687,279 Within 3 months 191,825 163,787,990 6,373,835 2,153,916 14,240,022 186,747,588 4 to 6 months December 31, 2019 10 to 12 months 7 to 9 months 1 to 5 years - - 38,219,793 23,649,424 2,162,846 3,330,658 37,420 119,633 44,166,284 29,299,981 2,948,384 2,894,577 42,549 60,981 - 24,102,750 1,880,424 2,466,142 35,210 10,344 28,494,870 - 5,547,232 3,682,214 19,211,409 232,985 71,561 28,745,401 4 to 6 months December 31, 2018 10 to 12 months 7 to 9 months 1 to 5 years - - 38,126,886 20,993,436 1,874,069 2,201,070 169,996 43,434,235 25,238,571 2,846,294 2,416,483 44,572 - 23,262,092 1,607,985 2,584,230 1,201 27,455,508 - 5,230,533 3,156,128 18,955,400 90,615 27,432,676 Over 5 years - 150,233 520,936 2,537,391 40,698 2,660,640 5,909,898 Over 5 years - 17,649 642,017 2,403,077 2,288,560 5,351,303 Total 115,156 266,978,703 19,791,006 32,818,388 434,934 14,165,526 334,303,713 Total 191,825 251,418,586 16,500,328 30,714,176 16,834,966 315,659,881 3) Maturity analysis of derivative financial liabilities Derivatives held for trading purpose are not managed in accordance with their contractual maturity, since the Group holds such financial instruments with the purpose of disposing or redemption before their maturity.

A financial guarantee represents an irrevocable undertaking that the Group should meet a customer’s obligations to third parties if the customer fails to do so. Under a loan commitment, the Group agrees to make funds available to a customer in the future. Commitments to lend include commercial standby facilities and credit lines, liquidity facilities to commercial paper conduits and utilized overdraft facilities. The maximum limit to be paid by the Group in accordance with guarantees and loan commitment only applies to principal amounts. There are contractual maturities for financial guarantees, such as guarantees for debentures issued or loans, unused loan commitments, and other guarantees, however, under the terms of the guarantees and unused loan commitments, funds should be paid upon demand from the counterparty.

The Group developed Advanced Measurement Approaches (“AMA”) to quantify required capital for operational risk. This system is used for reinforcement in foreign competitions, reducing the amount of risk capitals, managing the risk, and precaution for any unexpected occasions. This system has been tested by an independent third party and approved by the Financial Supervisory Service. 2) Operational risk measurement To quantify required capital for operational risk, the Group applies AMA using internal and external loss data, business environment and internal control factors, and scenario analysis. For the operational risk management for its subsidiaries, the Group adopted the Basic Indicator Approach. (6) Capital management The Group complies with the standard of capital adequacy provided by financial regulatory authorities. The capital adequacy standard is based on Basel published by Basel Ⅲ Committee on Banking Supervision in Bank for International Settlement in 2010 and was implemented in Korea in December 2013. The capital adequacy ratio is calculated by dividing own capital by asset (weighted with a risk premium – risk weighted assets) based on the consolidated financial statements of the Group. According to the above regulations, the Group is required to meet the following new minimum requirements: Tier 1 common capital ratio of 7.00%, a Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.5% and a minimum total capital ratio of 10.5% as of December 31, 2019.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (1) The fair value hierarchy The fair value hierarchy is determined by the levels of judgment involved in estimating fair values of financial assets and liabilities. The specific financial instruments characteristics and market condition such as volume of transactions and transparency are reflected to the market observable inputs. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The Group maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value of its financial assets and financial liabilities. Fair value is measured based on the perspective of a market participant. As such, even when market assumptions are not readily available, the Group’s own assumptions reflect those that market participants would use for measuring the assets or liabilities at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is described in the one of the following three levels used to classify fair value measurements: • • • Level 1—fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The types of financial assets or liabilities generally included in Level 1 are publicly traded equity securities, derivatives, and debt securities issued by governmental bodies. Level 2— fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). The types of financial assets or liabilities generally included in Level 2 are debt securities not traded in active markets and derivatives traded in OTC but not required significant judgment. Level 3— fair value measurements are those derived from valuation technique that include inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). The types of financial assets or liabilities generally included in Level 3 are non-public securities and derivatives and debt securities of which valuation techniques require significant judgments and subjectivity. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Group’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to a fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and consideration of inherent factors of the asset or liability.

Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 250 - 72 - Financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, financial assets at FVTOCI, and derivative assets (Designated for hedging) and liabilities (Designated for hedging) are recognized at fair value. Fair value is the amount 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. Financial instruments are measured at fair value using a quoted market price in active markets. If there is no active market for a financial instrument, the Group determines the fair value using valuation methods. Valuation methods and input variables for each type of financial instruments are as follows: ① Valuation methods and input variables for each type of financial instrument classified into level 2 in December 31, 2019 and 2018 are as follows: Loans Valuation methods The fair value is measured by discounting the projected cash flows of loan products by applying the market discount rate that has been applied to a proxy company that has similar credit rating to the debtor. Input variables Risk-free market rate, Credit spread Debt securities and Securities loaned Fair value is measured by discounting the future cash flows of debt securities applying the risk-free market rate. Risk-free market rate Credit spread Beneficiary certificates The beneficiary certificates classified as Level 2 are Base price MMF and are measured at base price. Derivatives The fair value is measured through option model (Closed Form), DCF Model, FDM, Monte Carlo Simulation and etc. Market rate, foreign exchange rate, stock prices and value of underlying assets, volatility, and etc. ② Valuation methods and input variables for each type of financial instrument classified into level 3 in December 31, 2019 and 2018 are as follows: Loans Debt securities Equity securities, capital contributions and Beneficiary certificates Valuation methods The fair value of Loans is measured by the Binomial tree given the values of underlying assets and volatility. The fair value is measured by discounting the projected cash flows of debt securities by applying the market discount rate that has been applied to a proxy company that has similar credit rating to the issuers of the securities. Among DCF (Discounted Cash Flow) Model, FCFE (Free Cash Flow to Equity) Model, Comparable Company Analysis, Dividend Discount Model, Risk- adjusted Rate of Return Method, and Net Asset Value Method, more than one method is used given the characteristic of the subject of fair value measurement. Input variables Values of underlying assets, Volatility Risk-free market rate, Credit spread Risk-free market rate, market risk premium, corporate Beta, etc. Derivatives Fair value is measured by models such as option model (Closed form), DCF model, FDM and Monte Carlo Simulation. Market rate, values of underlying assets such as foreign exchange rate and stock prices, volatility, etc. Equity-linked securities Fair value is measured by models such as option model (Closed form), DCF model, FDM and Monte Carlo Simulation. Values of underlying assets, market rate, dividend, volatility, correlation coefficient and foreign exchange rate, etc. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 73 - 251 Valuation methods of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value and classified into Level 3 and significant but unobservable inputs are as follows: Fair value measurement technique Binomial tree, DCF Type Loans Derivative assets Option valuation model and others Interest rate related Range Impact of changes in significant unobservable inputs on fair value measurement 14.50%~46.06% Variation of fair value as volatility of underlying asset increases. 0.90~0.98 Variation of fair value increases as correlation coefficient increases. 16.30%~41.20% Variation of fair value increases as volatility increases.

Equity-linked securities Monte Carlo Simulation and others Correlation coefficient Volatility of underlying asset Equity securities, capital contributions, debt securities, and beneficiary certificates External appraisal value and others Terminal growth rate Discount rate Volatility of real estate sale price Volatility of underlying assets 0.294~0.675 19.10%~25.30% Equity-linked securities’ variation of fair value increases if both volatility and correlation coefficient increase. However, when correlation coefficient decreases despite the increase in volatility, the variation of fair value of a compound financial instrument may decrease. Fair value increases as terminal growth rate increases. Fair value increases as discount rate decreases. Fair value increases as real estate sale price increases. 13.21%~52.48% Variation of fair value increases as 0.35%~19.21% 0.00%~ 9.15% 0.00 volatility of underlying assets increases Fair value of financial assets and liabilities classified into Level 3 is measured by the Group using its own valuation methods or using external specialists. Unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements are produced by the internal system of the Group and the appropriateness of inputs is reviewed regularly.

Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 254 - 76 - (4) Sensitivity analysis on the unobservable inputs used for measuring Level 3 financial instruments The sensitivity analysis of the financial instruments has been performed by classifying with favorable and unfavorable changes based on how changes in unobservable assumptions would have effects on the fluctuations of financial instruments’ value. When the fair value of a financial instrument is affected by more than one unobservable assumption, the below table reflects the most favorable or the most unfavorable changes which resulted from varying the assumptions individually. The sensitivity analysis was performed for two types of level 3 financial instruments: (1) interest rate related derivatives, currency related derivatives, equity related derivatives, equity-linked securities beneficiary certificates and loans of which fair value changes are recognized as net income; (2) equity securities of which fair value changes are recognized as other comprehensive income. Among the financial instruments that are classified as Level 3 amounting to 3,156,741 million Won and 2,566,715 million Won as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 respectively, investments of 2,194,320 million Won and 1,641,875 million Won that are considered to provide the best estimate of fair value are excluded from the sensitivity analysis.

Therefore, the total number of uncollected domestic exchange receivables or unpaid domestic exchange payable has been offset with part of unpaid domestic exchange payable or uncollected domestic exchange receivables and has been disclosed in loans at amortized cost and other financial assets and other financial liabilities of the Group’s statements of financial position respectively. The Group possesses the derivative assets, derivative liabilities, receivable spot exchange and payable spot exchange that do not satisfy the offsetting criteria of K-IFRS 1032, but provide the Group under the circumstances of the trading party’s defaults, insolvency or bankruptcy, with the right of offsetting. Items such as cash collateral cannot satisfy the offsetting criteria of K-IFRS 1032, but in accordance with the collateral arrangements and under the circumstances of the trading party’s default, insolvency or bankruptcy, the net amount of derivative assets and derivative liabilities, receivable spot exchange and payable spot exchange can be offset.

(*3) The Group has acquired VisionFund Cambodia to expand Cambodian retail sales, and recognized goodwill based on the economies of scale and acquired customer base. 2) Impairment test The recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is measured at larger amount among the fair value less costs to sell or the value to use. The net fair value is calculated by deducting costs of disposal from the amount received from the sale of the cash-generating unit in an arm’s length transaction between the parties with reasonable judgment and willingness to negotiate. In case of difficulty in measuring this amount, the sale amount of a similar cash- generating unit in the past market is calculated by reflecting the characteristics of the cash-generating unit. If reliable information related to fair value less costs to sell is not available, value in use is considered as recoverable amount. Value in use is the present value of future cash flows expected to be generated by the cash-generating unit. Future cash flows are estimated based on the latest financial budget approved by the management, with an estimated period of up to five years. The Group estimates cash flows based on an annual growth rate of up to 4.0% in relation to cash flows after the longest period. The main assumptions used to estimate cash flows are about the size of the market and the share of the group. The appropriate discount rate for discounting future cash flows is the pre-tax discount rate, including assumptions about risk-free interest rates, market risk premium, and systemic risk of cash-generating units. The impairment test, which compares the carrying amount and recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated, is conducted every year and every time an impairment sign occurs.

NET DEFINED BENEFIT LIABILITY(ASSET) The retirement benefits of the Group are based on the defined retirement benefit plans. Employees and directors with one or more years of service are entitled to receive a payment upon termination of their employment, based on their length of service and rate of salary at the time of termination. The assets of the plans are measured at their fair value at the end of reporting date. The plan liabilities are measured using the projected unit method, which takes account of projected earnings increases, using actuarial assumptions that give the best estimate of the future cash flows that will arise under the plan liabilities. The Group is exposed to various risks through defined benefit retirement pension plan, and the most significant risks are as follows: Volatility of asset The defined benefit obligation was estimated with an interest rate Decrease in profitability of blue A decrease in profitability of blue chip bonds will be offset by some calculated based on blue chip corporate bonds earnings. A deficit may occur if the rate of return of plan assets falls short of the interest rate. chip bonds Risk of inflation increase in the value of debt securities that the employee benefit plan owns but will bring an increase in the defined benefit obligation. Defined benefit obligations are related to inflation rate; the higher the inflation rate is, the higher the level of liabilities. Therefore, deficit occurs in the system if an inflation rate increases.

(2) Overview of the Group’s hedge accounting The hedging relationships the entity applies fair value hedge accounting and cash flow hedge accounting to are affected by interest rate which is related with Interest Rate Benchmark Reform. The interest rates to which the hedging relationships are exposed are USD 1M LIBOR, USD 3M LIBOR, USD 6M LIBOR, and 3M EURIBOR. The nominal amounts of hedging instruments related to 1M LIBOR, 3M LIBOR, 6M LIBOR and 3M EURIBOR are USD 400,000,000, USD 2,230,000,000, USD 500,000,000, and EUR 26,635,556, respectively. The entity pays close attention to discussions in the market and industry regarding the applicable alternative benchmark interest rates for the exposed interest rate. The entity judges related uncertainty is expected to be no longer present when the exposed interest rates are replaced by the applicable benchmark interest rates. 1) Fair value hedge As of the current period end, the Group has applied fair value hedge on fixed interest rate foreign currency denominated debentures amounting to 3,151,172 million Won. The purpose of the hedging is to avoid fair value volatility risk of fixed interest rate foreign currency denominated debentures derived from fluctuations of market interest rate, and as such the Group entered into interest rate swap agreements designated as hedging instruments. Pursuant to the interest rate swap agreement, by swapping the calculated difference between the fixed interest rate and floating interest rate applied to the nominal value, the fair value fluctuation risk is hedged as the foreign currency denominated debentures fixed interest rate terms are converted to floating interest rate. Pursuant to the interest rate swap agreement, hedge ratio is determined by matching the nominal value of hedged instrument to the face value of the hedged item. In this hedging relationship, only the market interest rate fluctuation, which is the most significant part of the fair value change of the hedged item, is designated as the hedged risk, and other risk factors including credit risk are not included in the hedged risk. Therefore, the ineffective portion of the hedge could arise from fluctuations in the timing of the cash flow of the hedged item, the change in the total amount and price of the hedged item, or significant credit risk fluctuation of either party of the hedging instrument. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 286 - 108 - The interest rate swap agreements and the hedged items are subject to fluctuations in the underlying market rate of interest and the Group expects the fair value of the interest rate swap contract and the value of the hedged item to generally change in the opposite direction. The fair value of the interest rate swap at the end of the reporting period is determined by discounting future cash flows estimated by using the yield curve at the end of the reporting period and the credit risk embedded in the contract and the average interest rate is determined based on the outstanding balance at the end of the reporting period. The variable interest rate applied to the interest rate swap is USD Libor 3M (6M) plus spread. In accordance with the terms of each interest rate swap contract designated as a hedging instrument, the Group receives interest at a fixed interest rate and pays interest at a variable interest rate. 2) Cash Flow Hedge As of the December, 31 2019, the Group has applied cash flow hedge on local currency denominated debentures amounting to 99,941 million Won, debentures on foreign currency amounting to 729,141 million Won and Borrowings in foreign currency amounting to 34,443 million Won. The Group’s hedging strategies are to ① Mitigate risks of cash flow fluctuation from variable interest rate debentures on local currency due to changes in market interest rate by entering into an interest rate swap contract and thereby designating it as hedging instrument; ② Mitigate the risks of cash flow fluctuation from principal and interest of variable-interest rate debentures denominated in foreign currency due to changes in foreign exchange rates and interest rates by entering into a currency swap contract and thereby designating it as hedging instrument; ③ Mitigate the risks of cash flow fluctuation from principal and interest of fixed- interest rate debentures denominated in foreign currency due to changes in foreign exchange rates by entering into a currency swap contract and thereby designating it as hedging instrument and ④ Mitigate the risks of cash flow fluctuation in variable-interest rate foreign currency borrowings resulting from changes in market interest rates and designate it as a hedging instrument through entering into currency swap contracts and interest rate swap contracts. This means exchanging a predetermined nominal amount as set forth in the interest rate swap contract adjusted by the differences between the fixed and variable interest rates, which results in the conversion of interest rates of debentures in local currency and borrowings in foreign currency from variable interest into fixed interest, eliminating the cash flow fluctuation risk. In addition, this also means a payment of predetermined principal amount as set forth in the currency swap adjusted by fixed interest rate, an exchange of an amount calculated by applying variable interest rate to USD or applying fixed interest rate to SGD, and an exchange of the principal denominated in KRW and principal denominated in foreign currency at maturity eliminating cash flow fluctuation risk on principal and interest. The hedge ratio is determined by matching the nominal amount of the hedging instrument to the face amount of the hedged item in accordance with interest rate swap and currency swap. Only interest rate and foreign exchange rate fluctuation risk, which is the most significant factor in the cash flow fluctuation of the hedged item, is addressed in this hedging relationship, and other risk factors such as credit risk are not subject to hedging. Thus, there could be hedge ineffectiveness arising from price margin set by the counterparty of hedging instruments and unilateral change in credit risk of any party in the transaction. The interest rate swap, currency swap contract and the hedged item are all affected by the changes in market interest rate and foreign exchange rates which are basic factors of the derivative. The Group expects that the value of interest rate swap contract, currency swap contract and the hedged item will generally fluctuate in opposite direction.

RESTRUCTURING OF THE GOVERNANCE STRUCTURE OF THE GROUP (1) Establishment of the Group On November 7, 2018, Woori Bank, a subsidiary of the parent company, obtained approval from the Financial Services Commission for the establishment of a holding company, and Woori Bank, held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders on December 28, 2018 to approve the comprehensive transfer of six companies’ shares of Woori Bank and its subsidiaries Woori Finance Management Research Institute, Woori FIS Co., Ltd., Woori Fund Services Inc., Woori Credit Information Co. and Woori Private Equity Asset Management Co. to establish the financial holding company. As a result, Woori Bank and its subsidiaries Woori Finance Research Institute Co., Ltd., Woori FIS Co., Ltd., Woori Fund Services Inc., Woori Credit Information Co., Ltd., and Woori Private Equity Asset Management Co., Ltd. were transferred as wholly-owned subsidiaries to the Group. The Group’s common stocks were listed on the Korea Exchange on February 13, 2019 and its American Depositary Shares (ADSs) are being traded underlying common stock on the New York Stock Exchange since the same date. (2) Accounting treatment of the Group From the perspective of the Group, the establishment of the parent company in a comprehensive share transfer of the controlling, subordinate or subsidiary to restructure the governance under the same control is a transaction that lacks commercial substance with no change in the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary, with no significant change in the existing owners’ absolute and relative interest in the Group net assets. Therefore, the Group accounted for the governance restructuring as it saw the consolidation entity continuing and presented the consolidated financial statements and notes in comparison. Consolidated financial statements in the comparative period are consolidated financial statements of Woori Bank and its subsidiaries (before the scheduled sale classification of five subsidiaries excluding Woori Bank) and consolidated financial statements in the first (current) period are consolidated financial statements of the parent and its subsidiaries, including Woori Bank. 44.

The main reasons for the business combination are to maximize synergy between the consolidated subsidiaries and to strengthen the non- bank business portfolio. The operating profit and net profit of Woori Asset Management Corp., reflected in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the five months after the acquisition date, are 2,365 million Won and 1,720 million Won, respectively, and the operating and net losses of Woori Global Asset Management Co., Ltd. are 1,751 million Won and 1,360 million Won, respectively. Assuming that the acquisition of Woori Asset Management Corp., Woori Global Asset Management Co., Ltd. and Woori Asset Trust Co., Ltd. was settled on January 1, 2019, the starting date of the annual reporting period, the operating and net profit of Woori Asset Management Corp. would be 10,572 and 7,976 million Won, respectively, the operating and net losses of Woori Global Asset Management Co., Ltd. would be 3,711 million and 2,774 million Won, respectively, and the operating and net profit of Woori Asset Trust Co., Ltd. would be 41,154 million and 30,981 million Won. WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2019 - 139 - 317 (2) Identifiable net assets Identified assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2019 are as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions): Assets Accounts Cash and cash equivalent Financial assets at FVTPL Financial assets at FVTOCI Financial assets at amortized cost Woori Asset Management Corp. 12,914 49,446 26,393 (*1) (*3) Premises and equipment Intangible assets (*2) Deferred tax assets Others Sub-total Financial liabilities Provision liabilities Deferred tax liabilities Others Liabilities Sub-total Fair value of net identifiable assets 16,739 1,610 6,667 1,547 63 115,379 5,129 221 1,085 159 6,594 108,785 Woori Global Asset Management Co., Ltd.

The contractual total of the financial assets at amortized cost of Woori Asset Management Corp. is 18,680 million Won, and the contractual cash flows that are not expected to be recovered as of the acquisition date are 1,941 million Won. Woori Global Asset Management Co., Ltd. has a contractual total of 25,613 million Won for financial assets measured at amortized cost. The contractual total of Woori Asset Trust Co., Ltd.'s financial assets at amortized cos are 72,686 million Won and will be recovered as of the acquisition date. Unexpected contractual cash flow is 10,894 million Won. (*2) The intangible assets of Woori Asset Management Corp. and Woori Asset Trust Co., Ltd. each include 6,456 million Won in customer relationships and 37,074 million Won in order backlog as a result of business combination and were valued at fair value through the Multi-Period Over-Return Act (MEEM) as they were judged separately identifiable intangible assets. A multi-term excess profit method is a method to estimate the future cash flows generated by each intangible asset and to discount the cash flows generated purely by that intangible asset to its present value by deducting the portion of the asset’s contribution to that cash flow generation. (*3) The Group has set 100% loan loss allowance for non-collected accrued income form operation Woori Asset Management Corp. In addition, although the fund investors have filed a lawsuit seeking compensation for damages, this financial effect was not reflected in the consolidated financial statements as of the end of the current term because the possibility of loss and extent of loss cannot be measured reliably at the end of the current term. If, within one year of the acquisition date, new information obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date requires the adjustment of the amounts recognized at the acquisition date, or the recognition of additional provisions existing at the acquisition date, the accounting for the business combination will be adjusted. Woori OverviewBusiness OperationsConsolidated Financial StatementsFinancial Review 318 (3) Goodwill - 140 - Recognized goodwill as a result of business combination are as follows (Unit: Korean Won in million): Woori Asset Management Corp. Woori Global Asset Management Co., Ltd. Woori Asset Trust Co., Ltd. Transfer price Fair value of net identifiable asset Non-controlling interest (*) Goodwill 122,450 108,785 29,371 43,036 33,000 30,970 - 2,030 224,150 122,532 40,162 141,780 (*) The non-controlling interest in Woori Asset Management Corp. and Woori Asset Trust Co., Ltd. acquired during the year ended December 31, 2019, was measured as the proportion of the non-controlling interest in the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. In the event of a business combination, the consideration transferred includes the premium paid to acquire Woori Asset Management Corp., Woori Global Asset Management Co., Ltd. and Woori Asset Trust Co., Ltd. which results in goodwill. In addition, the consideration paid for the business combination includes expected synergies, revenue growth, and the amount related to future market growth. However, these benefits through Woori Global Asset Management Co., Ltd. did not meet the identifiable intangible asset recognition requirements and were not recognized separately from goodwill. The Group also acquired a relationship with a customer of Woori Asset Management Corp. and order backlog of Woori Asset Trust Co., Ltd. as part of the acquisition. These relationships with customers were recognized separately from goodwill because they met the reparability criteria to meet the recognition requirements for intangible assets. (4) Business combination cost The Group incurred 2,634 million Won, including legal fees and due diligence fees, in relation to the business combination, and the amount was recognized as a fee expense in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income of the Group.
