• Separately, following AQR and based on SSM’s request, the Group is reviewing certain accounting estimates relating to
provisions in light of the higher degree of conservatism applied in the AQR if required, any such changes in estimates would
be reflected in Q4 2014
• Further, while AQR and stress test did not show a capital shortfall, this review of accounting estimates (on a prospective basis)
may impact the Bank’s capital position going forward

Analysis of AQR aggregate adjustments
• Mainly due to the assessment of lower recovery on defaulted
assets. 90% of Corporates were assessed as “gone concern” – this
meant that the only source of recovery would be the realisation of
the collateral; this is contrary to the Bank’s methodology which
assumes recovery of the Corporate to normal trading operations
• Mainly due to AQR conservative assumptions, due to
methodology for recognition of provisions on performing assets
and the fact that the AQR methodology assumed a rate of
default based on the year 2013 which was an exceptionally bad
year for the Bank

Recent developments in the Cypriot banking system
Monthly change in banking system deposits (€bn)
• Monthly change in banking system deposits
remain at a manageable level since lifting of
domestic capital restrictions - but significant
system wide funding gap from the bail-in
remains; part of reduction of deposits utilised
to repay loans
• The bulk of the Cyprus banking system is now
under direct supervision of the SSM
• 4 banks participated in the ECB assessment
(BoC, CCB, Hellenic and RCB) – only Hellenic
failed the assessment but then confirmed plans
to raise capital

foreclosure) is still being discussed at Government and supranational
levels
Passing of Foreclosure law a key step in the recovery process
22

effect of the foreclosure bill on low-income groups as unconstitutional

Scope for significantly higher fees & commissions income
Collateral value recovery
New markets for IBS / Wealth
Success of “digital vision”
Downside / uncertain outcomes
– Further run on deposits following lifting of capital controls
– Asset quality & property price deterioration
– Lower pace / impact of legislative reform
– Russian geo-political instability and de-offshorisation
– Litigation
Mitigated by management actions

Key takeaways
27
• Leading financial institution in an economy that is on the road to economic recovery, as evidenced
by the Moody’s upgrade
• MoU implementation on track with 5th Troika review mission being another positive one
• CET1 ratio improved to 15.4% (transitional basis, 14.9% CET1 B3 FL) driven the successful €1
bn share capital increase through a private placement with international institutional investors and
existing investors
• Deposit base showing signs of stabilisation, with 3Q2014 deposit outflows in Cyprus reduced to
just 3%; early release of all blocked decree deposits
• ELA reduced through deleveraging actions and capital proceeds
• RRD up and running with signs that measures are yielding results, despite the lack of the
appropriate legal infrastructure
• Loan quality challenges remain; 90+ DPD remain high; imperative that the Bank is given the tools
to engage effectively with borrowers
• Election of a new Board with members bringing a wealth of banking and broader corporate
experience

Net Interest Income (€m)
Net Interest Margin (bp)
• 3Q2014 Net Interest Income (NII) at €244m
(compared to €279m for 2Q2014) on the back of
lower customer spread reflecting reduced lending
rates and lower interest income following the
repayment of €950m of a sovereign bond by the
Republic of Cyprus (Laiki recapitalisation bond)
in July 2014
• During 3Q2014 the Bank reduced its Base
lending rates in order to help the rejuvenation of
the domestic economy
• 3Q2014 Group Net Interest Margin (NIM) at
3.83% (compared to 4.26% for 2Q2014) due to
reduction of net interest income
• NII and NIM continue to be affected by the
competitive conditions in the domestic banking
market and by the high-though-declining reliance
on Eurosystem funding which is cheaper than the
cost of customer deposits

Average daily customer flows per month (€m) • Customer outflows significantly abated during
H2 2014 and the deposit base showed signs of
stabilisation
• Customer outflows during Q1 2014 reflect one
off items and seasonality factors such as
payments of taxes, dividends by international
companies and the impact from the release of
the 6m decree deposits as well as the
relaxation of restrictive measures
• Since May 2014, the Bank experienced
customer inflows every month (with the
exception of August) despite:
– The release of €1.2 bn of blocked
decree deposits in July and October
2014
– The full abolition of internal controls at
the beginning of June 2014
• Fresh funds balance1 increased to €1,538m.
The amount of fresh money is approximately
9.3% of total customer deposits
