AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS
We have audited the annexed balance sheet of The United Insurance Company of Pakistan
Limited as at December 31, 2001 and the related revenue account, profit and loss account,
statement of changes in equity and cash flow statement, together with the notes forming part thereof,
for the year then ended and we state that we have obtained all the information and explanations
which, to the best of our knowledge and belief, were necessary for the purposes of our audit.
It is the responsibility of the Company's management to establish and maintain a system of internal
control, and prepare and present the above said statements in conformity with the approved accounting
standards and the requirements of the Insurance Ordinance 2000. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these statements based on our audit and we state that:
1) The amount under the head estimated liabilities in respect of claims whether due or intimated
includes gross claims related to various parties amounting to Rs. 21.686 million which have
remained outstanding for more than three years.
2) The balance carried forward under loans and accrued interest thereon upto December 31, 1993
have remained un-realized and no adequate securities are held by the Company in respect of
these loans. Under these circumstances we have not been able to ascertain the realizeability of the
amounts carried under these heads of Rs. 3.694 million and Rs.3.712 million respectively. In our
opinion adequate provision should be made in these accounts to cover the loss that could arise if
these receivables amounting to Rs. 7.406 million in the aggregate are not recovered. This
aggregate amount includes amount due from Fazal Sons Limited of Rs. 4.230 million in respect of
which suit has been filed as stated in Note 7.
3) The accrual for the interest amounting to Rs. 3.563 million on loans has not been made in these
accounts as the loans and interest accrued in previous years are not being recovered.
4) The amount under the head agents' balances and outstanding premium includes cash advances to
agents amounting to Rs. 23.050 million in respect of which we have not been furnished
confirmation. We have therefore, not been able to confirm the existence of these assets.
5) The balances carried forward under outstanding premium due from Government and Semi
Government Bodies include an amount of Rs. 0.956 million due from Synthetic Chemicals Limited
against which the High court of Sindh has decreed for an amount of Rs. 0.420 million with
proportionate cost. We have been unable to ascertain the correct status of the balance amount of
Rs. 0.536 million which, in our opinion, should be written off.
6) We have not been furnished title documents for some vehicles stated to be owned by the Company
in the absence of which we are unable to confirm the ownership and existence of these assets of the
Company. The title of some of the vehicles continue to be in the name of employees.
Except for the matters referred above and note No. 2.2, 2.6, 3.1, 7 respectively we state that we
conducted our audit in accordance with the auditing standards as applicable in Pakistan. These
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the above said statements are free of any material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the above said statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting policies and significant estimates made by management, as
well as, evaluating the overall presentation of the above said statements. We believe the our audit
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion and, after due verification, we report that:
1) In our opinion:
a) proper books of accounts have been kept by the Company as required by Companies
Ordinance, 1984.
b) i) the Balance Sheet, Consolidated, Fire, Marine, Motor & Miscellaneous Revenue
Accounts, Profit and Loss Account, Profit and Loss Appropriation Account together with
the Notes thereto have been drawn up in conformity with the provisions of the

in accordance with accounting policies consistently applied.
ii) the expenditure incurred during the year was for the purpose of the Company's
business; and.
iii) the business conducted, investments made and the expenditure incurred during the
year were in accordance with the objects of the Company.
c) we have verified the cash and bank balances and the securities relating to the Company's
loans and investments by actual inspection or by production of certificates, from the Ioanees,
custodians of investment and company's bankers;
d) in our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given
to us and subject to the eventual outcome of the matters stated in paragraphs No. 1 to 6 and
notes numbers referred above, the balance sheet, revenue account, profit and loss account,
statement of changes in equity and cash flow statement, together with the notes forming
part thereof confirm with the approved accounting standards as applicable in Pakistan, and
give the information required by the Insurance Ordinance, 2000, in the manner so required,
and respectively give a true and fair view of the state of the Company's affairs as at December
31,2001 and of the profit, changes in equity and its cash flows for the year then ended; and
e) we certify that all expenses of management, wherever incurred, whether directly or indirectly
and all charges incurred in respect of Fire, Marine and Accident & Miscellaneous Insurance
Business transacted in Pakistan have been fully debited to the respective Revenue Accounts as
expenses;
f) we certify that the Company has not paid to any person any commission in any form
