Accounting Treatment:

· Accounting treatment of designated at fair value investments is similar to that of held for trading investments.

· Any unrealized gains or losses arising from changes in fair value are reported in the Income Statement.
· Interest received on debt securities and dividends received on equity securities are reported in Income Statement.
