Following are the indicators of the soundness of the financial position of the Company as at 31st December 2020. Total assets of the Company stood at RO. 105.37 Million as at 31st December '20. Shareholders' equity amounted to RO. 30.46 Million as at 31st December '20. The schedule below demonstrates the details of investment portfolio of the Company for the years 2018 to 2020. 2020 2019 2018 Description RO. % RO. % RO. % Fixed income Investments 59,757,414 90.23 53,521,407 85.40 51,575,543 80.44 3,600,534 5.44 6,154,678 9.82 9,418,456 14.69 2,142,352 3.24 2,215,979 3.54 2,289,432 3.57 Investment in Equities Investment in Immovable properties Immovable properties (Self occupied) Total 719,149 1.09 776,634 1.24 834,291 1.30 66,219,449 100 62,668,698 100 64,117,722 100 In line with our strategies of stability, conservativeness, sustainability and consistent reward to shareholders, we have gradually reduced our exposure from the equity investments and increased our exposure in fixed income instruments. From the above table, one can observe that the Company's investments in equities are divested and invested in fixed income securities. Fixed income investments increased from RO 51.57 1 a million in 2018 to RO 59.78 million in 2020, with an increase of 15.86%. Meanwhile, the Company's equity investments decreased from RO 9.42 million in 2018 to RO 3.60 million in 2020, with a decrease of 61.77%. It is worth mentioning that, the increase in fixed income Investments was increased despite cash dividend distribution of RO 6 million, during the last two years. Moreover, the immovable properties have been accounted based on cost less depreciation method and the combined market value is around RO. 8.15 Million, having an appreciation of about RO. 5/- Million, which has not been recognized in the accounts. Thirdly: - Performance of Investments Operations: - In compliance with the Capital Market Authority's investment guidelines, the Company's funds invested in well-diversified classes of assets and high-quality liquid investments based on the operational liquidity requirements. During 2020, the MSM30 Index decreased by 8.10 %. Accordingly, the equity investment's performance of the Company has also affected negatively. Notwithstanding the lackluster performance of MSM30 Index, the Company's overall investment portfolio was able to achieve reasonable results as detailed in the table: - Description 2020 2019 2018 2,059,796 878,415 Net Interest Income 2,752,034 2,462,222 Dividend Income 596,328 463,220 Profit on sale of investments 101,553 562,903 Other income 116,961 477,205 Rental income 249,185 277,558 Change in market value of FVTPL investments (1,076,832) (1,246,062) 546,201 598,277 302,032 (2,086,530) Impairment on AFS investments (266,952) (1,707,932) (848,190) Net Investment Income 2,472,277 1,289,114 1,450,002 The table below elaborates on the performance of COMPANY and improvement over the years.
