Total assets are the sum of all current and non-current assets and must equal the sum of total liabilities and stockholders’ equity combined. The final amount of all cash and cash equivalents, financial assets held for trading, derivative financial assets, investments securities (those available for sale and held to maturity), assets pledged as collateral, loans and advances to banks and customers, restricted deposits and other assets, investment in subsidiaries, property and equipment, intangible assets and assets classified as held for sale as they are presented on the balance sheet.

Loans and advances to customers accounts for major proportion of the total assets, followed by cash and cash equivalents. Intangible assets accounts for least proportion of the total assets.
