Macroeconomic environment

GREEK ECONOMY

In Q1 2023, real GDP expanded by 2.1% on an annual basis, according the Hellenic Statistical Authority, against 7.8% in Q1 2022, while contracted marginally on a quarterly basis (-0.1%). Solid private consumption growth, rising investment, as well as exports goods and services are expected to continue supporting economic growth in 2023. The Economic Sentiment Indicator (ESI) signals further strengthening of the economic activity, remaining in Greece consistently above the euro area average since May 2022, with their difference standing in June 2023 at almost 15 points (110.1 in Greece vs 95.3 in euro area).

In parallel, inflationary pressures are gradually receding. Inflation based on the Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) stood at 2.8% in June, remaining on a downward trajectory from its all-time high in September 2022 (12.1%).

The general government (GG) primary balance returned to positive territory for the first time after the outburst of the pandemic, standing at 0.1% of GDP and exceeding earlier estimates for a deficit of 1.6% of GDP (Ministry of Finance, 2023 State Budget). The better-than-initially expected performance of public finances is mainly attributed to the overperformance of tax revenues, combined with the strong economic recovery recorded over the past two years (8.4% in 2021; 5.9% in 2022). According to the latest available data published by ELSTAT (Quarterly Non-Financial Accounts of General Government, July 2023) in the first quarter of 2023 the primary balance was equal to Euro -3.3 bn compared to Euro -2.7 bn in the respective period of 2022. Furthermore, in 2022, Greece recorded the largest annual reduction in public debt as a percentage of GDP, among the European Union (EU-27) countries, by 23.3 percentage points, reaching 171.3% of GDP.

Since the beginning of 2023, Greece has successfully tapped the international debt capital markets, raising in total more than Euro 10 billion. Specifically, three new bond issuances were carried out, a ten-year in January, a five-year in March and a fifteen year in July, amounting to Euro 3.5 billion, Euro 2.5 billion and Euro 3.5 billion respectively, along with three re-openings of tenand twenty-year bonds in April and May, through which Euro 700 million were raised in total. The borrowing costs -which rose in 2022 worldwide, due to the elevated uncertainty and the adverse effects of inflation- retreated in the first months of 2023, whereas the fall accelerated after the national elections held in May. The spread of the 10-year Greek Government Bond (GGB), against the respective German GB, narrowed to 128 basis points (bps) on 30.6.2023, from 205 bps on 31.12.2022.

In January 2023 Fitch upgraded Greece's sovereign credit rating by one notch, from BB to BB+, with a stable outlook (one scale below the investment grade), whereas Moody's and S&P changed the country's outlook from stable to positive in March and April, respectively.

The unemployment rate stood at 11.2% on average in the first five months of 2023, from 12.4% in 2022. Employment continued to grow on an annual basis in the same time interval, albeit at a slower pace compared to the previous year (1.4% in January-May 2023, 5.4% in 2022).

Residential property prices continued to trend upwards in Q1 2023, following a steep increase in 2022 (11.7%). According to the latest available (provisional) data by the Bank of Greece, in the first quarter of the year, nominal house prices rose by 14.5% on an annual basis.

Greek banks recorded profits in the first quarter of 2023, albeit lower compared to the same quarter of 2022, mainly due to the decrease in net income from financial operations and other net income (Bank of Greece, Interim Monetary Policy Report, June 2023). The Total Capital Ratio (TCR) for the Greek banks, on a consolidated basis, stood at 16.5% in March 2023 from 17.4% in December 2022, whereas the corresponding Common Equity Tier 1 (CET 1) ratio reached 13.4% from 14.4% in December 2022.

In the first six months of 2023, the sum of the private sector's net deposit flows, in the domestic banking system, was positive (Euro 141 million). Credit expansion continued on an upward trajectory in the first few months of 2023, albeit at a slower pace compared to last year. The annual rate of change of total credit to the private sector stood at 2.8% in June 2023, against 6.3% in December. Specifically, the annual rate of change of credit to non-financial corporations stood at 5.8% in June 2023, whereas credit to households remains in negative territory.

THE PROSPECTS OF THE GREEK ECONOMY

Based on the latest forecasts (Ministry of Finance, European Commission, International Monetary Fund, Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development), GDP growth rate in Greece is estimated to exceed 2.2% in 2023. Economic growth is projected to be supported mainly by: (i) the increased contribution of investment, on the back of the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) absorption, the implementation of the Public Investment Budget (PIB) and the increased Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) flows, (ii) enhanced extroversion of Greek firms, as well as (iii) resilient private consumption, as inflationary pressures reside.

Solid economic growth, combined with the return to primary surpluses and the projected de-escalation of the public debt to GDP ratio (1.1% and 162.6% respectively according to the MoF 2023 Stability Programme), are expected to contribute to Greece regaining investment grade status, probably within the current year. The latter will be a significant milestone for the Greek economy as it is expected to further compress borrowing costs for the State, the banks, as well as the private sector.

Downside risks to the 2023 growth outlook are primarily related to: (i) the adverse effects of inflation on households' real disposable income, (ii) the monetary policy tightening and the rising borrowing costs, (iii) the RRF funds' absorption rate and the Plan's implementation and (iv) possible delays in reforms' implementation.

GLOBAL ECONOMY

In the first half of 2023, the global economy continued to face major challenges, such as the persistent inflationary pressures, the banking sector turmoil, the tightening of the monetary policy, the rising risk of geo-economic fragmentation and the geopolitical uncertainty provoked by the Russian invasion in Ukraine.

The major contributors to growth -the United States, China and the Euro area- decelerated significantly throughout 2022, after a rapid recovery in 2021, but there are signs of improvement in 2023. According to the latest available economic data, the global growth has stabilized. However, the pace of growth is not expected to be identical among countries, as it depends on i) the exposure to the geopolitical tensions, ii) the degree of dependency on Russian gas and the energy security, iii) the sustainability of the public finance and iv) the additional monetary policy tightening to tackle the persistent inflation. The combination of high inflation, especially core with slow growth, and excessive debt levels- could pose significant risks to the global economy.

The global GDP growth decelerated to 3.3% in 2022, while, according to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD, Economic Outlook, June 2023), it is expected to slow down mildly to 2.7% in 2023 and to 2.9% in 2024. The projected downward trend is attributed mainly to the simultaneous monetary policy tightening around the world to tackle the inflationary pressures.

In 2023, the global growth prospects remain modest, as the tightening of the monetary policy, which is necessary to tame persistent inflation, is expected to continue. The significant rise in borrowing costs has already raised the cost of living for the households, such as mortgage costs and monthly expenses, as well as corporate debt services in business sector.

Global headline inflation has been declining since mid-2022, mainly, as a result of the fall in fuel and energy commodity prices and the central banks' policies. According to the IMF (World Economic Outlook, April 2023), global inflation is estimated to fall from 8.7% in 2022 to 7.0% in 2023 and 4.9% in 2024, remaining above the pre-pandemic level.

The Federal Reserve System (FED) has raised the interest rates 10 times in a row since March 2022, to a range of 5% to 5.25%. However, in the meeting of June did not proceed to an increase. The Bank of England (BoE) was one of the first central banks, which started the interest rates hikes. In December 2021, raised rates to 5%, the highest level since 2008. Other major central banks, such as the European Central Bank (ECB), proceeded with consecutive interest rate increases in 2022 and 2023. At its meeting in June 2023, the ECB raised its basic interest rates by 25 basis points, and it is expected to raise them further due to the persistence of inflation. At the outset of 2023, central banks showed signs of reducing the growth in interest rates hikes, as inflation eases down from its peak. However, more steps are necessary, until the inflation returns to the target level.

More specifically, the uncertainties that could affect the global economy are the following:

First, the uncertain course of the War between Russia and Ukraine. The unforeseen duration of the Invasion and the reduction of gas and oil exports, as a result of the sanctions by the EU, has triggered a gradual reshaping of the energy map.

Second, the risk of global geo-economic fragmentation and the return of protection. The pandemic and energy crisis have further tested international relations and the rivalry between the US and China. Furthermore, governments have reinforced initiatives, such as the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and Chips Act in US, as well as the European response.

Third, China's economic growth. China's recovery continues to recede, although mildly, as uncertainties are rising due to real estate pressures and investments decline.

Fourth, fiscal and monetary policies should work together to shield households and businesses. Governments need to start withdrawing gradually the temporary, energy support measures until the end of the year. In parallel, as it is aforementioned, central banks may need to tighten more their monetary policy, in order to curb inflation. Inflation remains sticky, with the risk of higher wages and corporate profit margins to lead to second-round effects.

EURO AREA

According to the European Central Bank's macroeconomic projections (ECB, June 2023), the real GDP growth in Q1 2023, in the euro area, declined marginally by 0.1% q-o-q (+1.0% y-o-y) due to lower private consumption, reflecting weaker real wages amid high inflation and tightening financing conditions. In contrast, the contribution of net exports was positive owing to the drop in energy imports and lower consumption of energy.

GDP growth is estimated to increase from the second quarter of 2023 and to remain sound during the second half of the year, as the energy shock fades, and real wages recover to some extent. ECB's monetary policy is set to be tightening will increasingly but the dampening impact from tighter financing conditions is expected to be limited. Along with the gradual stricter fiscal stance, this will weigh mildly on economic growth, in the medium term. Overall, annual average real GDP growth is expected to slow down to 0.9% in 2023 from 3.5% in 2022 and then increase to 1.5% in 2024 and 1.6% in 2025.

On the inflation front, Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) is projected to decelerate to an average of 5.4% in 2023 from 8.4% in 2022 before falling gradually further to 3.0% in 2024 and 2.2% in 2025. Inflation seems to be more persistent than initially expected, despite abating energy prices and normalizing global supply chain bottlenecks. Core inflation, excluding energy and food, is projected to exceed headline inflation in the short term and to remain above it until early 2024, though following a gradual downward path from the second half of 2023.

In the short term, the labor market is estimated to remain tight and resilient, in accordance with the economic activity path. Employment growth was robust in the first quarter of 2023, increasing by 0.6% compared with the previous quarter, despite a marginal decline in real GDP.

The increase was mainly attributed to a strong increase in the labour force. The unemployment rate is projected to increase to 6.9% in 2023 from 6.7% in 2022, 6.8% in 2024 and 6.6% in 2025.

COUNTRIES WHERE THE GROUP OPERATES

Cyprus

Economic activity in Cyprus increased by 3.4% (annual change, seasonally adjusted figures) in the first quarter of 2023, recording the second highest growth rate among the EU Member States.

The European Commission (Spring 2023 Economic Forecast) estimates GDP growth rate to stand at 2.3% in 2023. The slowdown in economic activity is attributed to inflationary pressures, higher interest rates and the weakening growth prospects of Cyprus' trading partners. On the other hand, the implementation of the national Recovery and Resilience Plan (RRP) is expected to support economic activity, especially investment.

Annual harmonised inflation increased from 2.3% in 2021, to 8.1% in 2022, while according to the European Commission (Spring 2023 Economic Forecast), it is forecast to decelerate to 3.8% in 2023, as international energy prices retreat.

Public debt decreased significantly from 101.2% of GDP in 2021, to 86.5% in 2022, due to high nominal GDP growth and it is expected to fall to 80.4% in 2023 (European Commission, Spring 2023 Economic Forecast).

Romania

Romania's GDP increased by 2.8%, on an annual basis, in the first quarter of 2023 (seasonally adjusted figures). Domestic demand was the main driver of GDP growth, as private and public consumption increased by 6.2% and 3.9% respectively. Investment and imports increased by 9.4% and 1.3%, while exports decreased by 0.7%.

According to the European Commission (Spring 2023 Economic Forecast), GDP is expected to increase by 3.2% in 2023, from 4.7% in 2022. Private consumption and investment are expected to perform strongly, as the implementation of the Recovery and Resilience Plan (RRP) is expected to support investment activity. Net exports are forecast to have a negative contribution to GDP, despite the expected increase in exports.

Annual harmonised inflation stood at 12% in 2022, exceeding EU average (9.2%). Harmonised inflation peaked in November 2022 (14.6%) and decelerated since. The European Commission (Spring 2023 Economic Forecast) predicts that HICP inflation will stand at 9.7% in 2023, as the surge in energy prices in the past year has passed through into core inflation components, such as processed food and services.

Finally, the government debt-to-GDP ratio is estimated to decrease from 47.3% in 2022, to 45.6% in 2023 (European Commission, Spring 2023 Economic Forecast).

United Kingdom

GDP increased marginally, by 0.2% on an annual basis in the UK, in the first quarter of 2023. Τhe European Commission (Spring 2023 Economic Forecast) estimates that GDP is expected to decrease by 0.2% this year, as household real income continues to fall and consumption and external demand soften, while business investment remains weak.

The Bank of England raised its policy rate four times in the first half of 2023 to 5%. The decision was catalytically affected by the sharp rise in inflation, which stood at 8.7% on an annual basis, in May 2023. The Bank of England expects that inflation will decelerate significantly throughout the year.

Analysis of Group Financial Information

As at 30.6.2023, the Group's Total Assets decreased by Euro 5.1 billion or 6.5% compared to 31.12.2022, amounting to Euro 72.9 billion. The main driver of the decrease was the repayment of Euro 8 billion TLTRO funding in the first half of 2023, as result of the interest rate increases by the ECB since the third quarter of 2022, which resulted to changes in the funding mix strategy of the Group.

The balance of Due to Customers amounted to Euro 51.8 billion, increased by Euro 1.0 billion or 2.0% compared to 31.12.22.

The balance of Debt Securities in issue and other borrowed funds has remained stable compared to 31.12.2022 at Euro 2.9 billion. During the first half of 2023, the Group repaid Euro 500 million of Covered bonds and Euro 31.2 million of preferred Senior Notes, whilst it issued two new preferred Senior Notes under the EMTN programme of nominal value Euro 570 million.

The balance of loans and advances to Customers remained stable compared to 31.12.2022 at Euro 38.7 billion, resulting in a loan-to-deposit ratio of 75% (31.12.2022: 76%) 1 . Assets classified as held for sale decreased by Euro 0.9 million following the completion of the sale transactions for projects Hermes and Sky that included portfolios of NPE loans and real estate.

As at 30.6.2023, the balance of Investment securities stood at Euro 15.5 billion (31.12.2022: Euro 13.5 billion) representing an increase of 14.8%. The acquisition predominantly of higher yielding HQLA securities supports the Group's profitability and liquidity metrics which have improved further in the first half of the year.

As a result of the above movements, Cash and balances at central banks reduced to Euro 6.6 billion (31.12.2022: Euro 12.9 billion), which is mainly attributed to the repayments of the TLTRO funding. The Group's Total Equity amounted to Euro 7.0 billion as at 30.6.2023, increased by Euro 729 million compared to 31.12.2022, mainly following the Additional Tier 1 Capital issuance of Euro 400 million nominal value (with callable maturity of 5.5 years and yield of 11.875%) and Net profit/(loss) for the period after tax recognized for the six-month period of Euro 303 million. The Total Capital Adequacy Ratio of the Group stands at 17.8% increased by 165bps compared to 31.12.2022, allowing the Bank to operate well above its capital requirements

4 SEMI ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT

by 30.6.2023. It is noted that Group's capital ratios already include a provision of dividend according to its policy. Excluding the provision for dividend, capital ratios increase by c. 20 bps and the Total Capital ratio would stand at 18.0%.

Regarding the results of the period to 30.6.2023, the Group's net profits after income tax amounted to Euro 303 million (30.6.2022: Euro 239 million), mainly affected by the growth in net interest income for Euro 282 million compared to the same period last year. Below are the main drivers for the results of the first semester of 2023:

  • Net interest income stood at Euro 864 million (30.6.2022: Euro 582 million), presenting an increase of 48% versus the comparative period. The increase is mainly attributed to the increase in interest rates since the third quarter of 2022 that has strengthened the net interest margin of the banking book.
  • Net fee and commission income for the period was Euro 185 million (30.6.2022: Euro 204 million) showing a decrease of 9%, attributed mainly due to lost income following the sale of the merchant acquiring business on 30.6.2022.
  • Gains less losses on financial transactions for 2023 amounted to a profit of Euro 50 million (30.6.2022: gains of Euro 400 million), representing a decrease of 88%. Gains in the period are mainly due to foreign exchange differences and the sale of securities. For the corresponding period last year, the relevant profit was affected by i) the sale of the Bank's merchant acquiring business unit to Nexi S.P.A. that contributed to gains on disposal of Euro 298 million, and ii) gains of Euro 72 million from the trading profit of derivatives.
  • Operating expenses for the period amounted to Euro 502 million (30.6.2022: Euro 508 million) and are analyzed as follows: staff costs of Euro 191 million (30.6.2022: Euro 185 million), general and administrative expenses of Euro 208 million (30.6.2022: Euro 220 million), depreciation and amortization of Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) and intangible assets of Euro 82 million (30.6.2022: Euro 79 million) and other expenses that represent gains of Euro 18 million (30.6.2022: losses Euro 24 million). In the first half of 2023, the Group recognized also expenses of Euro 39 million in relation to a new Voluntary Separation Scheme (VSS) and a Targeted Separation Scheme.
  • Impairment losses and provisions to cover credit risk and related expenses amounted to Euro 202 million (30.6.2022: Euro 380 million), representing a 47% decrease compared to the six-month period of 2022, and includes impairment losses of Euro 46 million for the NPEs transactions for Projects Solar, Leasing, and Sky. The underlying cost of risk stood at Euro 120 million. By contrast, the impairment losses and provisions to cover credit risk for 2022 stood at Euro 380 million due to the initiation of the NPEs de-leveraging plan for Projects Hermes, Solar and Leasing, the impact of which amounted to Euro 246 million for the six-month period of 2022.

Taking into account the above, profits before income tax for the six-months of 2023 reached Euro 417 million (against Euro 331 million profit in 2022), whilst the income tax amounted to Euro 114 million, resulting in net profits of Euro 303 million.

Since the Group has committed to specific targets through the announcements of the updated strategic plan, the Management monitors the normalized gains/losses of the Group against the targets it has set, in order to monitor the implementation of the business plan. Following a revised methodology as of January 1, 2022, the Group monitors the Normalized Results.

The Normalized Results do not include results that are not related to the normal course of business activities or that are not repetitive in nature and therefore affect the results of the Group. Indicatively, the main income and expense items that are excluded for purposes of the normalized profit calculation are listed below:

  • Transformation costs;
  • Results due to divestment of non-core assets and results of transactions of Non-Performing Exposures;
  • Results with a short-term impact or arising from unexpected or exceptional events with a significant economic impact;
  • Initial (one-off) impact from the adoption of new or amended International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS);
  • Tax-related one-off expenses and gains/losses.

The normalized profits for first half of 2023 reached Euro 357 million against Euro 201 million in the comparative period of 2022. An analysis of the normalized profits is presented in the Appendix of the Βoard οf Directors' Management Report.

Risk Management

The Group has established a framework of thorough management of risks, based on best practices and regulatory requirements. This framework, based on the common European legislation and the current system of common banking rules, principles and standards, is improving continuously over time and is applied in the daily conduct of the Group's activities within and across borders, making the corporate governance of the Group effective.

Since November 2014, the Group falls under the responsibility of the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM) – the financial supervision system which involves the European Central Bank (ECB) and the Bank of Greece – and as a significant banking institution is directly supervised by the ECB. The SSM operates jointly with the European Banking Authority (EBA), the European Parliament, the Eurogroup, the European Commission and the European Systemic Risk Board (ESRB), within the scope of their respective competences.

The applicable banking regulatory framework in the European Union (EU), i.e., the Basel III capital framework, is effective as of January 1, 2014. The said framework entered into force through Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 on "prudential requirements for credit institutions and investment firms" (the "Capital Requirements Regulation" or the "CRR") published on June 27, 2013, in conjunction with Directive 2013/36/EU on "access to the activity of credit institutions and the prudential supervision of credit institutions and investment firms" (the "Capital Requirements Directive IV" or the "CRD IV") published on June 27, 2013 that has been transposed into the Greek legislative framework by Law 4261/2014. The framework was amended by Regulation (EU) No 2019/876 (CRR II) of May 20, 2019 and Directive (EU) 2019/878 (CRD V) of May 20, 2019. The latter has been transposed into the Greek legislative framework by Law 4799/2021.

The Group's approach constitutes a solid foundation for the continuous redefinition of the Risk Management Strategy through (a) the determination of the extent to which the Bank is willing to undertake risks (risk appetite), (b) the assessment of potential impacts of the development strategy activities on the definition of the risk appetite limits, so that the relevant decisions combine the anticipated profitability with the potential losses and (c) the development of appropriate procedures for the implementation of this strategy through a mechanism which allocates risk appetite responsibilities among the Group Units.

Specifically, the Group, taking into account the nature, the scale and the complexity of its activities, as well as the risk profile, develops a risk management strategy based on the following three lines of defense, which are the key factors for its efficient operation:

  • 1 st line of defense Units (process owners) have the primary responsibility to own and manage risks associated with day-today operational activities.
  • The Risk Management, Monitoring and Control as well as the Compliance Units, which are independent from each other as well as from the first line of defense. They constitute the second line of defense and their function is complementary to conducting banking business of the first line of defense in order to ensure the objectivity in the decision-making process, to measure the effectiveness of these decisions in terms of risk undertaking and to comply with the applicable legislative and institutional framework, by monitoring the internal regulations and ethical standards as well as to display and evaluate the total exposure of the Bank and the Group to risk, based on the established guidelines.
  • The Internal Audit constitutes the third line of defense. The Internal Audit is an independent function, reporting to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, and audits the activities of the Bank and the Group, including the activities of the Risk Management Unit.

CREDIT RISK

Credit Risk arises from the potential failure of debtors' or counterparties to meet all or part of their payment obligations to the Group.

The primary objective of the Group's strategy for credit risk management, in order to achieve the maximization of the riskadjusted return, is the continuous, timely and systematic monitoring of the loan portfolio and the maintenance of credit exposures within the framework of acceptable overall risk undertaking limits. At the same time, the conduct of daily business within a clearly defined framework of granting credit, supported by specific credit criteria, is ensured.

Τhe Group's credit risk management framework is being developed based on a series of credit policy procedures as well as systems and models for measuring, monitoring and controlling credit risk. These models are subject to an ongoing review process in order to ensure full compliance with the current institutional and regulatory framework and their adaptation to the respective economic conditions and to the nature and extent of the Group's business.

Under this perspective and in order to further strengthen and improve the credit risk management framework during the first semester of 2023, the following actions were implemented:

  • Update of the Credit Policy Manuals for Wholesale Banking and Retail Banking, taking into account the regulatory guidelines on credit risk management issues and the Group's business strategy.
  • Update of the Group Credit Control Framework in order to ensure compliance with Credit Risk Policies at Bank and Group level.
  • Ongoing validation of the Risk Models in order to ensure their accuracy, reliability, stability and predictive capacity.
  • Update of the Retail Banking Arrears and Forbearance Policy in order to incorporate the current business practice.
  • Update of the "Concentration Risk and Credit Threshold Policy" regarding the maximum acceptable credit limits for large business groups.
  • Update of the Group's Loan Collateral Policy regarding the process of annual revaluations of collaterals covering loan exposures.
  • Periodic conduct of stress test exercises as a tool for assessing the impact of various macroeconomic scenarios on the business strategy formulation, the business decision-taking and the Group's capital position. The stress tests are conducted in accordance with the requirements of the regulatory framework and constitute a key component of the Group's credit risk management strategy.

Additionally, the following actions are in progress in order to enhance and develop the internal system of credit risk management:

  • Continuous upgrade of databases for performing statistical tests in the Group's credit risk rating models.
  • Upgrade and automation of the aforementioned process in relation to the Wholesale and Retail banking lending by using specialized statistical software.
  • Reinforcing the completeness and quality control mechanism of crucial fields of the Wholesale and the Retail Credit for monitoring, measuring and controlling credit risk.
  • Implementation of a project with regard to the transition from the existing Credit Rating Systems to a single Credit Risk Rating Platform provided by Moody's.
  • Continuous monitoring and servicing of credit risk data needs in the context of loan sales and securitization transactions.
  • Continuous upgrade of Credit Risk Datamarts in terms of data quality, bug fixing, new fields and algorithms creation/introduction.
  • Continuous strengthening of the control and monitoring mechanism of new financing for all the Retail Banking and Wholesale Banking portfolios and in particular of the automatic decision-making mechanism for Retail Banking (THALIS).

ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE (ESG) RISKS

The Group adopts an approach to the management of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) risks with particular emphasis on risks arising from climate change, which is a key component of its Risk Management Strategy. Following the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures ("TCFD"), the Bank assesses current and upcoming environmental policies, legal requirements and regulatory guidelines relating to climate and the environment, in order to record and efficiently manage any transitional risks related to its activities. In this context, the Group has developed a comprehensive action plan, submitted to the European Central Bank (ECB) in May 2021, in which it presented how the climate risk assessment would be incorporated in its operations and in the risk management process. This plan is still in place and will be completed by the end of 2023.

As part of this plan and in alignment with the ECB expectations, in 2022 and the first semester of 2023:

  • The Bank has initiated a project which is expected to be completed by the end of 2023 for the enhancement of the credit policy in order to incorporate the ESG obligor and transaction level assessment into its credit process.
  • The Bank updated its Risk Inventory in order to include the dimension of climate-related risks in its Risk Registry. The main climate-risk transmission channels in the area of risk management include a) the transition risk (and b) the physical risk.
  • The Bank conducted a materiality assessment analysis to identify the sectors that are most sensitive to climate-related risks. In alignment with the guidance across different sources [e.g., ECB, European Banking Authority (EBA), European Commission],

the Bank considers Climate and Environmental risks as a theme, i.e., as a transversal risk, incorporating such factors as drivers of existing financial and non-financial risk categories in its risk management framework.

More specifically, according to the outcome of the materiality assessment:

  • Credit risk: It is materially affected by transition risks, both in the Non-Financial Corporate (NFC) portfolio and the Retail portfolio secured by Real Estate. It is, also, considered to be materially affected by some individual physical risk factors.
  • Operational risk: based on historical data, operational risk is immaterial to ESG-related events. The Bank will closely monitor ESG-related risks, as there are potentially material ESG factors that can lead to operational risk in the future.
  • Market risk: is currently immaterial to both transition and physical risks. The Bank, going forward, will frequently conduct materiality analysis to re-assess the materiality of ESG factors and climate-related events.
  • Liquidity risk: there is no material effect from climate related and other ESG factors. The Bank will conduct a detailed materiality assessment on a regular basis, involving the analysis of the assets included in the Bank's liquidity buffers (leveraging the materiality assessment for market risk), as well as an analysis of its funding profile.
  • Reputational risk: a separate evaluation is not required as it arises because of other risk types (i.e., a second-order impact). The materiality assessment of these types is sufficient to cover one-off (acute) events with reputational repercussions and longer-term brand value impacts in the context of Strategic risk. Therefore, reputational risk is considered to be materially affected by ESG factors.
  • The Business & Strategic risk: It is currently materially affected by ESG factors, as it materializes through several drivers (e.g., the Bank's inability to properly execute its strategy, changes in the customers' demand of various Bank's products, etc.), while, also, it is observed that 67% of the gross interest income and fees/ commissions income of the Bank's performing NFC portfolio is derived from sectors more sensitive to transition risk.
  • Based on the outcome of the materiality assessment exercise, for obligors falling within the ESG-sensitive perimeter, obligor- level assessment questionnaires have been developed, aiming at collecting data and assessing the borrowers in terms of ESG criteria.
  • In parallel, the Bank is participating in the interbank initiative to develop a common ESG obligor assessment questionnaire in order to facilitate borrowers requesting a new funding. The common questionnaire has been finalized upon being agreed with consensus by all systemic Banks. Currently, the Banks are establishing the specifications for the implementation of the interbank initiative on the common platform.
  • The Bank is in the process of finalizing the transaction level questionnaire. The development of the transaction level assessment criteria has been completed, minor finetuning is expected in order to take into account certain special business areas e.g., shipping portfolio, project finance, etc. System development of the transaction assessment prototype as well as the interplay between obligor and transaction assessment will be completed in the second semester of 2023.
  • The Bank is working on additional issues such as the enhancement of the exclusion list, the collateral policy, the ESG related terms in loan agreements etc.

Moreover, the Group has already incorporated in its Risk Appetite Framework (RAF) a set of qualitative commitments regarding climate risks.

Specifically:

  • The Group is committed to integrating climate risks into its overall risk management framework.
  • In this context, the Group has further enhanced its the quantitative Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) relating to Climate and Environmental Risks within its RAF.
  • The Group is introducing a process to comprehensively assess its Customers' ESG/climate risk profile, via the ESG obligor assessment process, which is expected to be in place by the end of 2023. In this context, the Bank will take initiatives to request its Customers to clearly define and communicate their commitments and to develop and execute effective strategies to mitigate climate risks.
  • The Group aims to finance its counterparties' green/sustainable transition both in the short-and in the long-term
  • The Group, to the extent possible, has started collecting Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) from its Customers in order to monitor the energy performance class of its real estate-secured exposures.
  • The Group already applies an exclusion list, in line with the Environmental and Social Exclusion List developed by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), for the avoidance of the financing, directly or indirectly, of specific activities considered as harmful to the environment and to society, i.e. thermal coal mining or coal-fired electricity generation capacity, upstream oil exploration, upstream oil development projects, except in rare and exceptional circumstances where the proceeds of the project exclusively target the reduction of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions or flaring from existing producing fields.

In order to assess the impact of climate risk on the calculation of Expected Credit Loss (ECL), detailed information on the location of collateral as well as information on EPCs is being collected. The information will be incorporated into the respective data systems and methodological approaches will be developed in order to adapt the models for calculating the ECL. More specifically, the following are in progress:

  • Finalization of new scorecards, simplified and advanced (full-blown), for environmental risks, providing differentiation by industry and depending on the size of the company (e.g., turnover) as well as scorecards for governance and social risks.
  • Development of a validation methodology for the new models that assess environmental, governance and social risks and integration of the former into the Credit Risk Models Validation Framework.
  • Identifying ESG-related data needs, leveraging the data that will be collected for the borrower's assessment and supplementing it with additional information, where needed. In this context, the Bank is in the process of implementing a specific database (data warehouse) that will host all ESG related data, either from Bank's systems or from third party systems (e.g., Teiresias) or algorithmically. Additionally, the ESG treasury data (Bonds and stocks) requirements from different business stakeholders have been identified.
  • In parallel, specialized ESG projects are in progress by the Group's Subsidiaries, with common timelines and milestones like those of the Bank.
  • The Bank is conducting workshops with various data providers in order to introduce climate change scenarios to foster consideration of uncertainty and prepare a response for future climate and societal conditions.

These actions are part of a Group wide program that is aligned with the ECB expectations i.e. institutions by the end of 2023 at the latest, to manage climate and environmental risks with an institution-wide approach and by the end of 2024 at the latest, to be fully aligned with all supervisory expectations, including having in place a sound integration of climate and environmental risks in their stress testing framework and ICAAP.

Moreover, as part of the initiative to incorporate sustainability criteria in its lending operations, the Group has developed a Sustainable Finance Framework, which defines criteria in line with the International Capital Markets Association (ICMA) principles and the EU Taxonomy Regulation, which will be incorporated into the credit policies of the financial Institutions' Subsidiaries until 2023. The Framework will be audited by an independent third party, to ensure the proper implementation of the aforementioned principles.

The Group continues to develop and implement its ambitious ESG Workplan, aiming to enhance the sustainability of its business model and to ensure long-term value creation for its Shareholders.

LIQUIDITY RISK

Liquidity risk derives from the possibility of cash outflows not being fully covered by cash inflows (funding liquidity risk) as well as from the possibility of failure to timely address changes in market conditions that affect the ability to liquidate assets quickly and with minimal loss in value (market liquidity risk).

During the first semester of 2023, customer deposits increased by Euro 1 billion, representing an increase of 2% compared to 31.12.2022. It is noted that in the same period time deposits increased by Euro 4.4 billion.

During the first semester of 2023, the Subsidiaries continued to have increased liquidity. Their liquidity buffer, comprising Cash and Deposits on Central Banks, government bonds both eligible and non-eligible as collateral by the Central Bank, bonds issued by financial institutions, subordinated notes both eligible and non-eligible as collateral by the Central Bank etc., on 30.6.2023 stood at the level of Euro 1.83 billion for Cyprus and of Euro 0.55 billion for Romania.

The decision of the European Central Bank (ECB) (on 7.4.2020 and on 22.4.2020) to accept Greek sovereign debt instruments as collateral in the Euro system credit operations, even though they do not meet the minimum ECB rating requirements, was sustained through the first semester of 2023. The ECB recognizes, through this decision, the recent progress achieved by the Greek economy and pursues a common treatment of states in the Eurozone.

The Board of Directors of the European Central Bank from the second half of 2022 onwards decided on a series of increases in its intervention interest rates in order to ensure a timely return of inflation to the medium-term target of 2%. In addition, in October 2022, it decided to modify the terms of TLTRO III, in order to be in compliance with the normalization process of monetary policy, strengthening the transmission of its relevant decisions to the interbank market and, by extension, to the economy. As a result, a downward trend on inflation is expected, contributing to the redemption of price stability over the medium term. In this context, the Bank's financing from the Euro system stood at Euro 5 billion on 30.6.2023.

Alpha Bank successfully placed at 01.02.2023 a €0.4 bn, Additional Tier 1 bond with a coupon of 11.875%. The Additional Tier 1 bond has a perpetual maturity and is callable at year 5.5. Additionally, on 21.06.2023 Alpha Bank has concluded a Euro 500 million Senior Preferred Bond issuance. The Senior Preferred Bond has a 6-year maturity and is callable in year 5, with a coupon of 6.875% and a yield of 7%.

The interbank financing (short-, medium- to long-term) and the Early Warning Indicators of the Bank, and of the Group's Subsidiaries are monitored and analyzed on a daily basis, in order to draft relevant reports and capture daily variations. It is noted that during the first semester of 2023 no limit breach was realized.

Taking into consideration the Greek economy and the new economic environment due to the Covid-19 pandemic, liquidity stress tests are conducted on a regular basis in order to assess potential outflows (contractual or contingent). The purpose of this process is to confirm whether the existing liquidity buffer is adequate to cover the Bank's needs. These stress tests are carried out in accordance with the approved Liquidity Risk Policy of the Group. It is noted that, according to these stress tests, during the first semester of 2023, the Liquidity Buffer remained adequate to cover all the Bank's needs.

During the first semester of 2023, the Contingency Funding Plan was updated to incorporate an increased liquidity buffer. The Contingency Funding Plan is complementary to the Recovery Plan. Its purpose is to facilitate efficient management in the beginning of a possible liquidity crisis in order to take remedial actions, in a timely manner, to mitigate a reduction in the liquidity buffer.

Finally, in the context of the review of the Internal Liquidity Adequacy Assessment Process, the Bank updated the liquidity stress test scenarios.

INTEREST RATE RISK IN THE BANKING BOOK

Interest Rate Risk in the Banking Book (IRRBB) is the risk that examines how a change in base interest rates (i.e., Euro swap curve) will affect the Net Interest Income of the Bank and the Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities (Economic Value of Equity).

The change in the Net Interest Income and the change in the Economic Value of Equity, which results from a change in base interest rates, are calculated for internal and prudential stress scenarios on a regular basis. The relevant IRRBB stress tests scenarios results are presented to the Assets-Liabilities Management Committee and to the Risk Management Committee of the Board of Directors.

The Bank closely monitors the interest rate risk of the banking book and has adopted a strategic and holistic approach to manage the overall IR gap risk. The Bank is well within the ΔEVE (Economic Value of Equity) / Tier 1 limits across all different interest rate stress scenarios. With a floating rate performing loan portfolio (c. 90%) and a low concentration/well diversified deposit base, interest rate increases have significantly benefited the balance sheet's profitability. The bond portfolio's modified duration is currently at 3 years (vs. 3.7 in the beginning of the year) closely mirroring the Weighted Average Life (WAL) (2.9 years) of the Bank's Non maturing Deposits.

During the first semester of 2023, interest rate hikes by central banks have continued, as a return of inflation to the low 2% levels that monetary authorities want remain. The European Central Bank increased the key interest rates during the first semester of the year by 150 basis points, resulting in the level of 3.5% on deposit rate facility and on 4% on the main refinancing rate on 30.6.2023. ECB president, Christine Lagarde, sent a stern message, saying inflation — which was running at 6.1 % in May — would stay higher than expected for longer and therefore "still has ground to cover." Other central banks made

similar increases, with interest rates set by the Swiss central bank (SNB) at 1.75%, the Norwegian central bank at 3.75% and the Bank of England (BoE) at 5%. For the U.S., with Fed rates ranging from 5%-5.25%, markets predict the rate to reach 5.6% at the end of the year despite a slowdown in the consumer price index to 4% in May. A problem for the Fed is core inflation — which excludes energy and food prices —reaching levels above 5% in the US.

It is estimated that higher interest rates will lead to an increase in interest income resulting in an improvement in the Net Interest Margin depending on the degree of repricing of the cost of customer deposits.

At the end of 2022, new Guidelines were issued with regard to the monitoring of the IRRBB applicable as of 30.6.2023, based on IRRBB Bank Policy & Methodologies were updated. Until the end of the year, Credit Spread Risk of the Banking Book (CSRBB) will be introduced and applied. The CSRBB captures the risk of an instrument's changing spread, while assuming the same level of creditworthiness.

Furthermore, during the first semester of 2023, no IRRBB limit breach was realized for the Bank and its Subsidiaries, while new limits were defined in terms of Net Interest Income and Economic Value of Equity. Additionally, the new regulatory ΔNII limit was introduced.

The systems used for IRRBB analysis are Sendero Data Management and Risk Manager. However, the Bank is in the process to select a new system in order to provide better support to regulatory reports and KRIs, Dynamic Gap, DV01 by time bucket and Fair Value Gap. Moreover, it enhanced the Earning at Risk calculation, on Solo and Group Level.

MARKET, FOREIGN CURRENCY AND COUNTERPARTY RISK

The Group has developed a strong control environment, applying policies and procedures, in accordance with the regulatory framework and international best practices, in order to meet business needs involving market and counterparty risk, while limiting adverse impacts on results and equity. The framework of methodologies and systems for the effective management of those risks is evolving on a continuous basis, in accordance with the changing circumstances in the markets and in order to meet customer requirements.

Market risk is the risk of losses arising from unfavorable changes in the price or volatility of products with underlying interest rates, foreign exchange rates, stock exchange indices, equity prices and commodities. The valuations of bond and derivative positions are monitored on an ongoing basis. Stress tests are conducted on a regular basis in order to assess the impact for each scenario on profit and loss and capital adequacy, in the markets where the Group operates.

A detailed structure for trading limits, investment limits and counterparty limits has been adopted and implemented. This structure involves regularly monitoring trigger events that could signal increased volatility in certain markets. The limits above are monitored on an ongoing basis and any limit breaches identified are reported officially.

For the mitigation of the interest rate and foreign currency risk of the banking portfolio, hedging strategies are applied using derivatives and hedge effectiveness is tested on a regular basis.

During the first semester, the trading book market risk, as measured by Value at Risk, fluctuated between Euro 0.5 million and Euro 1 million. Value at Risk is the maximum loss that could take place in one day with 99% Confidence level. Value at Risk captures foreign currency risk, interest rate risk, price risk and commodity risk in the trading book.

The Sovereign yields decreased: the 10-year German Government Bond yield by 18 basis points (bps), the 10-year Greek Government Bond yield by 92 bps, while the 10-year Italian Government Bond yield by 63 bps.

During the period there was an increase in Investment securities measured at amortized cost (book value) of approximately Euro 1.8 billion. The key driver was the increase in sovereign bonds by Euro 1.3 billion, out of which Greek Government Bonds increased by approximately Euro 0.7 billion.

OPERATIONAL RISK

Operational Risk is defined as the risk of financial or qualitative negative effects resulting from inadequate or internal processes not implemented effectively, IT systems, people (intentionally or unintentionally) and external events. Operational Risk includes legal risk.

In the context of its capital calculation process for Operational Risk, the Group implements the Standardized Approach and meets all the qualitative criteria required by this Approach.

12 SEMI ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT

The Group has implemented a new operational risk Governance Risk Compliance (GRC) platform, which became operational in the second quarter of 2022. Further to loss event monitoring, that was supported by the previous system, the platform that replaced it has enhanced functionality in the areas of Operational Risk Assessments (i.e., RCSAs), Key Risk Indicators (KRIs) monitoring, Operational Risk mitigation plans and is also used by the Cybersecurity and Information Security Division and the Group Data Protection Officer.

The development of KRIs as a control monitoring mechanism has continued and the operational risk events monitoring processes have been further strengthened.

In line with the Group's established Operational Risk Framework, the Risk and Control Self-Assessment (RCSA) procedure is been implemented across the Group, according to the 2023 plan. The RCSA procedure aims to identify and assess potential operational risks and to implement action plans for their remediation.

The evolution of Operational Risk Events, the RCSA results and all other Operational Risk-related issues are systematically monitored by the Group's competent Operational Risk and Internal Control Committees, which have increased responsibilities to review the relevant information and to ensure that appropriate measures for the mitigation of Operational Risk are adopted.

IBOR REFORM

The London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), one of the main and most important interest rate benchmarks used in global financial markets ceased to exist or lost its representativeness since January 1, 2022. In line with the announcements of the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), the end of 2021 brought to a close the first major phase of LIBOR cessation with 24 of the 35 LIBOR settings ceasing. The continuation of some USD LIBOR settings through June 30, 2023, wasintended only to support the transition of legacy products.

The Group took all the necessary steps in order to comply with the above regulations. A detailed action plan was drafted and the internal Working Group, representing several workstreams, identified dependencies on LIBORs and implemented the necessary amendments.

The Group informed its Customers of the LIBOR transition well in advance by uploading on its website all the relevant information. Furthermore, dedicated correspondence was sent to Customers with direct exposure to the new alternative interest rates.

Furthermore, the Group concluded the transition of the remaining USD LIBOR settings which continued to exist up to June 30, 2023.

With regard to new industry developments, on April 3, 2023, the FCA announced its decision to require LIBOR's administrator, IBA, to continue to publish the 1-, 3- and 6-month US dollar LIBOR settings under a 'synthetic' methodology until end-September 2024 for use in legacy contracts only. For sterling LIBOR, FCA intends to continue to require IBA to publish the 3-month synthetic sterling LIBOR setting until end-March 2024, after which it will cease permanently.

Furthermore, the Euro Risk Free Rates Working Group in order to facilitate the establishment of a fallback rate in an event that a benchmark materially changes or ceases to exist, has recommended as a fallback rate for EURIBOR a forward-looking term rate for a variety of asset classes. In particular, on November 2022 EMMI launched EFTERM, a forward looking €STR-based term benchmark calculated for five settings, known as "tenors": one week, and one, three, six and twelve months.

The Group continues to monitor all relevant market developments, taking all necessary actions to ensure compliance where required and to support its Customers.

Management of Non-Performing Exposures (NPEs) and Real Estate Owned Assets (REOs)

NPEs MANAGEMENT

The Group has set as a key priority the effective management of NPEs, as this will lead not only to the improvement of the Group's financial strength but also to the restoration of liquidity in the real economy, households and productive business sectors, contributing to the development of the Greek economy in general.

13 SEMI ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The Group proceeded with an NPEs reduction effort during H1 2023, achieving a further reduction of NPEs ratio to 7.6% on 30.6.2023. The total NPEs reduction within H1 2023 amounted to Euro 0.1 billion and this was the result of a dedicated effort towards achieving the NPEs reduction target. The organic reduction and particularly long-term restructuring solutions in conjunction with early indications of a decelerating trend in loan defaults constitute a major component for reaching the 2023 target. Furthermore, portfolio sales remain critical in safeguarding the implementation of the submitted plan. In the first half of 2023 the Bank completed the disposal of a mixed pool of secured Non-Performing Loans to Greek Large Corporate Entities and Small-Medium Sized Enterprises with a total Gross Book Value of approximately €0.65 billion (Project Hermes) as also the sale of a Cypriot NPEs portfolio of a total Gross Book Value and Real Estate properties of Euro 2.3 billion (Project Sky) In 2023, the macro headwinds – mainly reflected through energy inflation and ascending interest rates – reduced the real income and increased loan installments, both developments putting enormous stress on the financially-vulnerable segments of

the population. The Group, having a good command of its Customers, managed to address these challenges successfully through:

  • the launch of new targeted campaigns;
  • the rollout of the management proactive actions framework;
  • the introduction of new restructuring solutions.

These actions led to:

  • a significant number of Retail (RTL) viable modification both at the Performing Exposures (PEs) and NPEs fronts during H1 2023;
  • the shrinkage of RTL inflows, during the first half of the year improving both default and cure rates, maintaining a robust performance on its entire loan book.

In 2023, the macro challenges are expected to be present – albeit less intense – so the Bank intends to capitalize on the management proactive actions framework, leveraging our knowledge and experience, upon the most sensitive parts of our loan portfolio. This, along with the improved internal data analysis and the enhanced servicing practices (CEPAL), will allow us:

  • to successfully defend the strong credit standing of our loan book;
  • to achieve our ambitious NPEs deleveraging targets, coming exclusively from the organic activity.

REOs MANAGEMENT

In addition to the efficient and effective management of its NPEs, during the last few years the Group has captured within its strategic priorities the successful management of REOs as well. In this context, the Group during 2023 continued its strategy as follows:

Ongoing implementation of a management strategy for REOs through the Subsidiary Αlpha Astika Akinita S.A. with the aim to:

  • Monitor the repossession procedure (asset onboarding).
  • Coordinate the asset management operations through the Group's Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs).
  • Supervise and coordinate asset management and development.
  • Supervise and coordinate repossessed asset commercialization, in accordance with the applicable Group policy.
  • Set and monitor the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for the collaborating asset management agencies (internal units and external collaborators).

With regard to the commercialization of REOs, a website has been created. Through the website as a main point of first contact with interested parties, Alpha Astika Akinita S.A. during the first half of 2023 has managed to dispose assets representing a book value of approximately Euro 20 million in Greece and Euro 5 million in Cyprus (excluding Project Sky). The sale prices achieved have outperformed the targeted sale prices by approximately 7% because of the increased demand for real estate assets. This demand has been driven mainly by inflationary adjustments which traditionally favor less liquid assets. Our projections are that for the second half of 2023 the sale activity will continue at the same pace.

On 6.2.2023, Alpha Services and Holdings S.A. announced the definitive agreement with the consortium comprised of Dimand S.A. and Premia Properties REIC for the formation of an equity partnership in real estate investment through the sale of a Euro 438 million real estate portfolio (Project Skyline). The transaction, which is the largest real estate portfolio transaction in Greece in recent years, comprises 573 assets of multiple types, including offices, commercial real estate, residential and industrial/logistics assets, with a gross area of approximately 500,000 sq.m. and is estimated to be completed in the third quarter of 2023. Alpha Astika Akinita S.A., the listed real estate company of the Group, through an exclusive agreement, will offer property and facility management of the Skyline portfolio and the Alpha Bank Group will remain as a tenant for certain

assets, while the rest of the portfolio will either be redeveloped and repositioned for rental use or sold directly to the market. Through the Skyline transaction, the Group will accomplish the liquidation of 475 repossessed assets. The size of the transaction and the quality of its participants confirm the positive prospects of the Greek real estate market and the quality of the Group's real estate portfolio.

On 16.6.2023, Alpha International Holdings S.M.S.A. completed the disposal of a portfolio of Cypriot Non-Performing Loans and Real Estate properties in Cyprus (Project Sky). Apart from the loan perimeter, the transaction comprises c. 1,300 RE asset with a value of Euro 110 million. The REs are mainly residential assets located in the districts of Paphos, Limassol and Larnaka with a covered area of approximately 93,000 sq.m.

Capital Adequacy

The scope of the Group's Capital Strategy pertains to maintaining a strong capital adequacy both from an economic and from a regulatory perspective. It aims at monitoring and adjusting the Group's capital levels, taking into consideration the capital markets' demand and supply, in an effort to achieve the optimal balance between economic and regulatory considerations. The Group's Risk and Capital Strategy sets specific risk limits, based on the risk appetite, and monitors deviations therefrom. The objectives of the Group's capital management policy are to ensure that the Group has sufficient capital to cover the risks of its business, to support its strategy and to comply with the regulatory framework at all times.

1. Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP)

According to the Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP) 2022 decision, communicated by the European Central Bank (ECB), for 2023 Alpha Services and Holdings S.A. is required to meet on a consolidated basis an Overall Capital Requirement (OCR) on the Total Capital ratio of at least 14.25% [the OCR includes the Capital Conservation Buffer (CCB) of 2.50%, and the Other Systemically Important Institutions (O-SII) buffer of 1%. The OCR of 14.25% does not include the applicable Countercyclical Capital Buffer (CCyB) that stems from the contribution of the Subsidiaries for which further information can be found in Note 27 for Capital Adequacy].

The OCR consists of the minimum threshold of the Total Equity Ratio (8%), in accordance with Article 92 (1) of the CRR, and the additional supervisory requirements for Pillar II (P2R), in accordance with Article 16 (2) (a) of Regulation 1024/2013/EU, which amount to 3.0%, as well as the combined security requirements (i.e., CCB, O-SII, CCyB), in accordance with Article 128 (6) of Directive 2013/36/EU. The minimum ratio should be kept on an ongoing basis, considering the CRR/CRD IV Transitional Provisions.

The Bank of Greece has set the O-SII buffer at 1 % for 2023, increased by 0.25% compared to 2022 and the Countercyclical Capital Buffer at 0% for Greece, for the second quarter of 2023.

The capital adequacy requirements set by the SSM/ECB are used by the Group as the basis for its capital management. The Group seeks to maintain sufficient capital to ensure that these requirements are met.

In response to COVID-19 pandemic and to encourage banks to grant new loans, the European Commission decided to revise the existing regulatory framework by bringing forward regulations that would normally come into effect with the CRR 2/CRD V framework.

As a result, in June 22, 2020 the EU published Regulation (EU) No 2020/873 in its Official Journal, which included amendments in relation to the capital requirements set by Regulations (EU) No 575/2013 and 876/2019. The revised Regulation includes, inter alia, article 473a which introduces provisions aiming to mitigate the negative impact on the regulatory capital of the banks from the increase in the expected credit loss as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. This article extends to another two years the ability to add back to the regulatory capital the expected credit losses recognized in 2020 and afterwards relating to performing financial instruments. This transition period is effective until the end of 2024.

2. IFRS 9 Capital Impact

Regarding the International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) 9, the Group makes use of Article 473a of Regulation (EU) No 2395/2017 of the European Parliament and of the Council, amended by Regulation (EU) No 873/2020, and applies the transitional provisions for the calculation of Capital Adequacy on a solo and on a consolidated basis. The Group is adequately capitalized to meet the needs arising from the application of the Standard, and the impact from the initial implementation of the Standard has been fully incorporated in the ratios since January 2023.

3. Capital Adequacy Ratios

On 30.6.2023, the consolidated Common Equity Tier (CET) 1 capital stood at Euro 4.4 billion, while the Risk Weighted Assets (RWAs) amounted to Euro 32.5 billion, resulting in a CET 1 ratio of 13.5%, up by 0.25% versus 31.12.2022.

In the context of the scheduled NPEs transactions, the Bank has completed the Hermes and Sky transactions. According to the Business plan, the capital adequacy ratios are expected to be further enhanced due to the completion of the rest scheduled transactions (e.g., Skyline).

In addition to the scheduled transactions that were concluded during the H1 2023, it is noted that the Shipping Synthetic Securitization (Project "Compass") was successfully completed, validating the strategy to utilize alternative sources of capital enhancement.

On 8.2.2023 Alpha Services and Holdings S.A. completed the issuance of its Euro 400 million Perpetual Fixed Rate Reset Additional Tier 1 Notes (the "AT1 Notes"). The AT1 Notes, which are non-call 5.5 notes, are issued with a yield of 11.875%. Dividend payment is on a semi-annual basis and is subject to the approval of The Board of Directors (BoD). The issuance increased the Group's Total Capital Adequacy ratio by 117 basis points.

Dividend Policy

Alpha Services and Holdings has updated its dividend distribution policy following the restoration of profitability and in view of the capital accretive Business Plan that may allow to proceed with distribution. Alpha Services and Holdings envisages to proceed to a dividend distribution in 2024 based on 2023 profitability subject to regulatory approvals.

The policy document has been approved by the Board of Directors (BoD) on the Meeting of 8.5.2023. The Policy sets the framework (legal, accounting, regulatory) under which the Bank may proceed to a dividend distribution and is reviewed at least annually in the context of ICAAP and/or as often as necessary in order to reflect amendments in all applicable laws and regulations. According to the Dividend Policy, Alpha Services and Holdings has accumulated in H1 2023 a provision of dividend of c. 60 mn.

EU-Wide Stress Test 2023

The EU-wide Stress Test is a biannual exercise and is conducted by EBA for the largest European banks and by ECB for the banks which are not included in the first group. The EU-wide Stress Test 2023 includes additional 26 banks that have been added to the stress test sample compared to the 2021 exercise and further proportionality has been introduced into the methodology. Alpha Bank is part of the EBA sample for the 2023 Stress Test exercise.

The 2023 EU-wide stress test uses a constrained bottom-up approach with some top-down elements. Focus is on the assessment of the impact of adverse shocks on banks' solvency. Banks are required to estimate the evolution of a common set of risks (credit, market, counterparty, and operational risk) under a baseline and an adverse scenario.

The Stress Test is conducted based on a static balance sheet approach under a baseline and an adverse macro scenario with a 3-year forecasting horizon (2023-2025).

Alpha Services and Holdings successfully concluded the 2023 EU-wide Stress Test and the results were published by EBA on 28.7.2023.

The results of Alpha Services and Holdings (IFRS 9 - fully loaded basis) are presented in the following table:

Stress Test Results
31.12.2022 31.12.2025 31.12.2025
Starting
Point
Baseline Adverse
CET1 fully loaded (%) 11.9% 14.1% 8.9%
Tier I fully loaded (%) 11.9% 14.1% 8.9%
Total Capital fully loaded (%) 14.9% 16.9% 11.7%

Table 1 – Stress test results (Actual)

It is noted that the Stress Test methodology does not incorporate the Bank's H1 2023 capital strengthening actions. These include, among others, NPE deleveraging through the "Sky" and "Hermes" transactions, the shipping synthetic securitization, Αdditional Τier 1 issuance and organic capital accretion. The CET 1, Tier I and Total capital ratios of December 2022 pro-forma for the above actions are enhanced by c. 1.3%, 2.5% and 2.6% respectively.

In the base scenario there is a capital accretion with an increase in the Common Equity Tier I (FL) by 2.2 pp in the 3 years horizon including also a dividend pay-out of 30 %.

Since the previous EU ST 2021, Alpha Services and Holdings has transformed itself, significantly strengthening its balance sheet, decisively reducing its NPEs, restoring its organic profitability and successfully building a track record in the capital markets through the issuance of capital and MREL instruments while also further enhancing capital and liquidity buffers. The capital depletion in the Common Equity Tier I (IFRS9-fully loaded basis) over the three years horizon in the adverse scenario (ignoring any post year-end events) was 3.1 pp compared to 4.6 pp for the EU Average.

4. Deferred Tax Assets (DTAs)

The Deferred Tax Assets (DTAs) which are included in the Group's capital base as at 30.6.2023 stood at Euro 5.1 billion. According to article 5 of Law 4303/17.10.2014, as amended by article 4 of Law 4340/1.11.2015, on the "Recapitalization of financial institutions and other provisions of the Ministry of Finance" and Laws 4549/2018 and 4722/2020 and, most recently, by Law 4831/2021, DTAs that have been recognized and are due to the debit difference arising from the Private Sector Involvement (PSI) and the accumulated provisions and other general losses due to credit risk, which were accounted until 30.6.2015, are converted into final and settled claims against the Greek State. The above mentioned are set into force in case the accounting result for the period after taxes is a loss, according to the audited and approved by the Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders financial statements.

In accordance with article 39 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council on "prudential requirements for credit institutions and investment firms" (the "Capital Requirements Regulation – CRR"), which amended Regulation (EU) No 648/2012, a risk weight of 100% will be applied to the abovementioned DTAs that may be converted into tax credit, instead of being deducted from the Regulatory Equity Capital.

On 30.6.2023, the amount of DTAs, which is eligible for the scope of the aforementioned Law, is common for the Bank and the Group and is included in the Common Equity Tier 1, stands at Euro 2.7 billion and constitutes 60.7% of the Group's Common Equity Tier 1 and 8.2% of the respective Weighted Assets.

Any change in the above framework that will result in the non-recognition of DTAs as a tax credit will have an adverse effect on the Bank's and the Group's capital adequacy.

5. Capital Requirements under Pillar I

The approaches adopted for the calculation of the capital requirements under Pillar I are determined by the policy of the Group in conjunction with factors such as the nature and type of risks the Group undertakes, the level and complexity of the Group's business and other factors such as the degree of readiness of the information and software systems.

Capital Requirements for Credit Risk are calculated using the Standardized Approach (STA). The advanced method is used for the valuation of financial collaterals. For the Operational Risk capital requirements, the Group follows the STA. As regards Market Risk, the Bank uses for the significant exposures a Value at Risk (VaR) model developed at Bank level and approved by the Bank of Greece. Additionally, STA is used to calculate Market Risk for the remaining non-significant exposures by the financial institutions of the Group at solo level as also on Group level.

6. Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP) and Internal Liquidity Adequacy Assessment Process (ILAAP)

The ICAAP and ILAAP are an integral part of the Internal Control System (ICS) of the Group. They are aligned with best practices and the general principles and requirements set by the regulatory framework, including the guidelines provided by the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM) and/or the European Banking Authority (EBA). These guidelines allow for:

  • The identification, analysis, monitoring and the overall assessment of risks to capital and liquidity.
  • The improvement of various systems/procedures/policies related to the assessment and management of risks.
  • The estimation of the Internal Capital required for the coverage of all risks and the determination, the management and the monitoring of the liquidity buffer.
  • Capital and liquidity planning, taking also into consideration the Group's risk appetite and the approved business plan.

ICAAP and ILAAP are integrated into the business decision-making and risk management processes of the Group, contributing to its continuity by ensuring its capital and liquidity adequacy from different but complementary perspectives (e.g. the economic perspective and the normative perspective), while both perspectives mutually inform each other and are integrated into all material business activities and decisions.

The Board of Directors has the overall responsibility of the ICAAP/ILAAP implementation with a clear and transparent assignment of responsibilities to the Risk Management Committee and to Senior Management Members. The Board of Directors, following the Risk Management Committee endorsement, approves the results of the ICAAP and the ILAAP and signs the Group's Capital Adequacy Statement (CAS) and the Liquidity Adequacy Statement (LAS).

The related reports are updated at least annually or on a more frequent basis if material changes occur and are submitted to the SSM of the European Central Bank (ECB). The ICAAP and ILAAP Reports are assessed yearly by the ECB as part of the Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP).

7. Regulatory Liquidity

The Group's NPE deleveraging, coupled with the customer deposits increase, the restored market access and the issuances of Euro 2.9 billion, improved the Group's funding mix. As of June 30, 2023, the Group's Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) stands at 176% and Group Net Stable Funding ratio (NSFR) stood at 127% respectively. It is also noticed that HQLA to total Deposits ratio was further improved compared to previous quarter and stands at 30% while Loans to Deposits stands at 75%.

8. MREL

The Minimum Requirement for own funds and Eligible Liabilities (MREL) constitutes a buffer that the Bank has to maintain in order to absorb losses in the event of resolution. The minimum levels of MREL are determined by the Single Resolution Board (SRB) on an annual basis.

As per the latest official SRB decision on 21 March 2023, as of January 1, 2023, the Bank shall comply, on a consolidated basis, with an intermediate MREL target equal to 19.92% of the Total Risk Exposure Amount (TREA) and 5.91% of the Leverage Exposure (LRE).

As of January 1, 2026, the consolidated MREL will become "fully loaded" and will be set at 23. 60% of the TREA and 5.91% of the LRE. The final MREL ratio expressed as a percentage of TREA does not include the Combined Buffer Requirement (CBR), which stands at 3.6% effective 01 January 2023.

Following four Senior Preferred Bond issuances in 2021 and 2022 amounting to EUR 1.7 billion in total, Alpha Bank further placed one Minimum Requirement for own funds and Eligible Liabilities (MREL) Senior preferred bond issuance during 2023. In June 2023 a Euro 0.5 billion senior preferred bond was issued, with a 6.875% coupon rate, a yield of 7% and a six-year maturity, while it is callable in the fifth year.

On June 30, 2023, the Bank's MREL ratio on a consolidated basis stood at 24.34%, which is well above the interim non-binding target of 19.92% of the Total Risk Exposure Amount (TREA) (effective 01.01.2023). The said ratio includes the profit of the financial reporting period that ended on June 30, 2023 post a provision for dividend payout. Excluding the provision for dividend, the MREL ratio increases by c. 20 bps and stands at 24.54%.

Transformation

TRANSFORMATION PLAN

Alpha Bank has initiated its ambitious transformation journey from 2020 ("Transformation program", "the alpha blueprint" or "the Plan") aiming to achieve significant performance enhancement and enable the Group to deliver its strategic goals in an accelerated manner. The Plan addresses the entire Bank through seven (7) thematic areas2 , engaging more than 200 people and with strong top management commitment in delivering the vision of the Group.

Through this transformation journey the Bank re-defined the way it operates and delivers change. The Plan enabled the Bank to raise the level of ambition focusing on "what matters", with targeted and prioritized initiatives going "beyond its normal delivery capacity". As a result, different capabilities have joined forces to deliver this ambitious initiative, removing legacy silos between different units and prioritizing resources based on what drives impact.

In Retail Banking, the Bank is now starting to capitalize on the recently established segment-based operating model. Specifically, we continue to strengthen the personalized service for our priority customers through dedicated relationship managers and targeted product bundles. More than 280.000 priority customers are already allocated to more than 300 trained Customer Service officers. In addition, the Bank reinforced the use of digital channels, with more than 95% of branch transactions already available and executed digitally, leading to the achievement of capacity savings of more than 300 FTEs (Full Time Employees) from the Branch Network. Furthermore, the Bank has transcended from the manual underwriting of all credit decisions to the automatic credit approvals in a significant portion of the new requests, both in Mortgage and Consumer segments. Approximately 55% of unsecured consumer credit and 35% of mortgage credit are performed through the automatic credit decisioning platform of the Bank, minimizing the time to receive the decision on a credit application.

In Wholesale Banking, we have started reaping the benefits of our Transformation efforts. The Bank has already launched 18 digital products and services for business clients whilst more are on the pipeline for delivery within 2023, further reinforcing its digital footprint in the market. In parallel, c. 26.000 business clients have been trained and migrated on digital solutions resulting in 60% decrease in branch transactions from such clients. The changes made to our operating model enhancing the customer centric approach and commercial performance, are now paying dividends as a significant increase of Relationship Manager's commercial time and productivity has been achieved, attributed to the introduction of new tools and platforms revamping the way Wholesale RMs are operating. In addition, the Bank deployed a tailored approach in managing loss making customers which has been proved successful and led to more than Euro 8 million of economic value improvement.

Significant transformational impact has been achieved in relation to the efficiency of the Bank's operating platform.

Targeted initiatives have been implemented with significant impact in the areas of (a) FTEs efficiencies, (b) operating model efficiencies and optimizations, (c) cost base optimization, (d) performance and talent management.

With regards to FTE efficiencies, the transformation program has already achieved more than 20% productivity improvement in central functions as a result of processes optimizations, automations, centralizations and operating model improvements.

Operating model efficiencies have been realized through the consolidation and centralization of similar activities coupled with the significant increase in automation and process optimization. Over 20 such centralizations have taken place delivering a simplified and more efficient platform.

In addition, significant gains have started to materialize from the implementation of its new IT operating model, which target was to increase efficiency and speed of delivery, moving forward from legacy ways of working between IT and Business units.

The Bank has also focused on the optimization of its cost base. Targeted initiatives have resulted in a reduction of IT costs by over Euro 12 million3 as well G&A expenses by over Euro 23 mil.

Finally, with regards to performance and talent management, the Bank has achieved to minimize personnel turnover with less than 5% of talent been "lost", while nearly 100% of the Bank's employees are included in the new performance management framework. Both milestones are attributed to the implementation of the following key elements: (1) the rollout of a new performance management framework; (2) a new talent definition and management framework, including succession nomination; (3) a new Employee Value Proposition; (4) a new workforce planning methodology and tooling, as well as (5) a new talent development plan that promotes the retention of top talent in the Bank.

2 Transformation Plan's thematic areas are:(1) Retail, (2) Wholesale, (3) Growth and Innovation and improvement of customer experience (CX), (4) Lending, (5) Core Technology, (6) Efficiency and (7) People and culture 3 Refers both to Opex and Capex

Taking everything into consideration, the Bank has successfully completed the first phase of the transformation program ("Transformation 1.0") and has been progressing with full force with the second phase ("Transformation 2.0") which agenda constitutes four main Pillars:

  • a) Retail: Initiatives that are part of the second phase of the Plan will focus on supporting the migration of the core offering to digital, coupled with the automation and digitization of branch processes aiming to boost staff productivity.
  • b) Wealth: Targeted initiatives to enhance technology structure and business architecture of the Bank's wealth platform coupled with the development of a new offshore wealth management offering.
  • c) Wholesale: Wholesale transformation 2.0 will focus on re-designing certain elements of the operating model in Wholesale to improve customer service and increase RM efficiency/ productivity. In addition, the reinforcement of the non-lending offering of the Bank will be brought into the spotlight for the second phase of the Plan.
  • d) Cost Efficiency: The focus will be to increase efficiency in the Bank's central operations team, coupled with structural changes to Business Units operating model aiming to capture synergies and optimize the cost base.

Focusing on these four pillars, will enable the Bank to further deliver change in the entire organization and continue transforming the Bank's way of working in a way that leads to faster servicing for Bank Customers, less operational risk, as well as to the smooth operation of the Organization in its entirety.

DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION AND INNOVATION ACTIVITIES

Following its successful digital transformation program, Alpha Bank continues to focus on understanding its Customers' needs and developing digital solutions to improve their banking experience as part of the implementation of the Strategic Plan 2023- 2025.

During the first semester of 2023, the Bank continued to support daily transactional needs of Customers through digital channels (e-Banking for Retail and Business Users, ATMs, APSs), improving existing capabilities and progressing towards new ones, making digital networks the primary sales and services channels.

In the first half of 2023, Customers continued to choose the Bank's digital channels for their transactions, as evidenced by the fact that 96% of those transactions were carried out digitally, with only 4% being concluded at the Bank's Branch Network. In fact, both the number and the value of transactions via the digital channels increased by 12% and 13% respectively, compared to 30.6.2022. Registration of new customers for e-Banking continues, with 1 in 3 new customers completing their registration exclusively online via the myAlpha Mobile app.

During the year, even more functionalities, improvements, and new products, became available via myAlpha Web for Retail Users. The new transaction program myAlpha Benefit was added to the available online products at the beginning of 2023 and offers to Retail users the opportunity to reduce transactional costs for bill payments, transfers, and cash withdrawals from ATMs of other banks with a monthly fee of Euro 2 and savings of up to Euro 4.25/month.

Also, Retail Users now have the opportunity to apply for Certificates of deposits and loans without having to visit a Branch, while the way Customers' investment portfolios are displayed in the myAlpha Web for Gold and Private Retails users and myAlpha Mobile has been enhanced to provide additional information and an improved user experience. At the same time, to enhance the security of e-Banking usage, existing capabilities have been expanded, such as the management of connected devices via my Alpha Mobile. This allows customers to control and manage their connected devices to e-Banking in an instant, wherever they are.

In addition, the myAlpha Documents tool (MAD) was launched in March as part of e-Banking, enabling the Customer and the bank representative to exchange, manage, and sign banking documents, which are required to complete various Customer applications, entirely online without having to visit a Branch.

Customers' preference for myAlpha Mobile was clear during the first half of 2023, with the users of the app carrying out transactions via their mobile phone, outnumbering the ones executing them out via myAlpha Web. In fact, 8 out 10 Customers with active e-Banking subscriptions used myAlpha Mobile on a monthly basis, while the number and value of transactions via the application, increased by 33% and 27% respectively.

Similarly, myAlpha Web for Business Users was enriched with new features, such as Imports, where the users are now able to carry out Simple International Transfers in Euros or Foreign Currency, without currency conversion, up to the equivalent of €500.000. Moreover, they are provided with the option to choose between Sharing/Our expense types.

Furthermore, during the first semester of 2023, two types of Certificates were added to the myAlpha Web for Businesses environment. Specifically, users were given the ability to issue Account Balance Certificate and Certificate deposit account maintenance.

At the same time, with the aim of simplifying the daily transactions of corporate Customers and relieving the burden on the Branch Network from time-consuming tasks, in June 2023, the Multiple Deposit feature was made available on the myAlpha Web for Businesses. This feature allows Customers to prepare cash deposit transactions they intend to make into their company's account before the arrival of the legal representative (or authorized person) at the Branch, to complete the transaction.

In addition, an impressive number of new and existing Alpha Bank Customers continued to choose Alpha Bank to issue their Market Pass, Tourism Pass II and Dentist Pass, i.e. the financial support provided to citizens to offset the increased costs of households due to the significant increase in the consumer price index, the promotion of domestic tourism and the support of Greek households against the rising inflation, as well as the financial assistance for preventive dental care for children, which contributed to the increase in new e-Banking subscriptions compared to the first half of 2022.

At the same time, online sales of exclusively digital consumer loan myAlpha Quick Loan, which became available via myAlpha Mobile and myAlpha Web in early 2022, were significantly increased. Specifically, the vast majority of loan applications disbursed in the first half of 2023, were submitted via mobile phones, accounting for 58% of all consumer loans and 31% of the total volume (in Euro) disbursed by the Βank.

The percentage of the new online debit cards issued appears correspondingly high, reaching 35% of the total number of cards issued. Equally, the percentage of online term deposits for Retail Users (Alpha online Term Deposit and Alpha online Term Deposit with Bonus) has performed well, with 52% of the total number of new term deposits via the Bank's Digital Networks.

Regarding the remote registration of Customers, the Retail Onboarding service, which continue to offer prospective Customers the opportunity to open an account and to obtain a debit card as well as e-Banking credentials through their mobile phone without visiting the Branch Network the first semester of 2023, 20% of the total new accounts were opened with the Bank through this service and, specifically, via the myAlpha Mobile application.

Similarly, the Digital Business Onboarding service, which was launched in August 2020 and was further enhanced in February 2021, offers prospective corporate Customers the opportunity to obtain a current account and a subscription to Business e-Banking without visiting the Branch Network. During the first semester of 2023, up to 60% of the new business Customers chose to start their relationship with Alpha Bank through www.alpha.gr.

The digital wallets which Alpha Bank offers to its customers, continued their upward trend in 2023, recording more than a doubling of transactions processed through them by Alpha Bank's Customers, with percentages of more than 119% in transaction volume and 113% in value, relative to the corresponding half of 2022.

In the first half of 2023, in March to be precise, Alpha Bank was honored with an award as part of the "Product of the Year" event. More specifically, the Bank received the award in the Services Category for Bonus application, which provides easy access and personalized information about offers to redeem and collect Bonus points, and in particular for the new feature that has been offered since November 2021 via Bonus app, the Bonus e-coupons. The e-coupons are exclusive, discounted offers from selected partners that users can redeem in physical stores or in the program partners' e-shops.

As for the Bank's ATM network, the number of transactions increased by 1.5% compared to the first half of 2022. As part of the program to replace ATMs of older technology with newer ones, the share of new ATMs is now 85% compared to the first half of 2022, which was 73%.

At the same time, the voice guidance option has been extended to cardholders of other Greek banks participating in the DIAS system, allowing more citizens to make cash withdrawals and balance inquiries by simply connecting their headphones to the corresponding slot of the ALPHA ATMs BANK.

Regarding the network of Automated Payment Systems (APSs), in the end of the first semester of 2023, 97% of the Branch Network had installed at least one APS, via which deposit and payment transactions are carried out both in cash and by debiting an Alpha Bank card.

In 2023, the Bank continued improving the already available functionality of issuing Approved Electronic Signatures for its Customers and Staff, in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 (eIDAS), via myAlpha Web and myAlpha Mobile for Retail Users, but also via the myAlpha Web for Business Users platform, thus enabling the remote signing of documents by all its Customers and laying the foundations for a new era of remote service experience.

Alpha Bank actively continued to pursue the development of an open innovation ecosystem. Its fourth internal digital innovation competition (i3), open exclusively to Bank staff, launched in May 2023, aiming at soliciting innovative employee ideas to improve customer and employee experience through digital technology.

The form for the submission of proposals will remain open until July and after the evaluation of all proposals, the best will be announced and working groups will be formed. These groups will then join an accelerator program, where they will attend Workshops and mentoring sessions in order to further develop the original ideas and align them with the current needs of the Bank. The final proposals will be presented at an open event before a jury committee in order to award the best.

STRATEGIC PRIORITIES UNTIL THE END OF 2025

Alpha Bank, during an Investors' Day event held in June 7th 2023, unveiled its 2023-2025 strategy, laying the foundations for creating value and empowering growth, by leveraging on the identity of its franchise, its distinctive positioning in highly specialized and profitable segments, its long-standing commitment to create shareholder value and its track record in delivering on its promises.

The Strategy announced was based on 6 clearly defined pillars that will drive profitability across the Group's business units:

Corporate responsibility and sustainability

In addition to the information regarding the Group's activities in order to address the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) risks described in the previous dedicated section, further Group activities in the field of corporate responsibility and sustainability are described below.

As stated in its Corporate Responsibility Policy, the Group respects and defends the diversity of its Employees by promoting a culture that fosters diversity and inclusion and implements fair labor practices and policies with regard to its Employees, following well-established international guidelines. It ensures high-quality work conditions and opportunities for professional development on the basis of merit and equitable treatment, offers fair remuneration, provides Employees with continuous education and training, while securing health and safety in the workspace.

In addition, the Company applies the principles of Corporate Responsibility in the whole range of its activities and seeks the compliance of its Suppliers and Partners with the values and business principles that govern its operation.

The Group's activities are directly linked to society and its citizens. Therefore, the Group seeks to contribute to the building of a sustainable, inclusive and fair society, through the design and implementation of programs with significant social impact that create equal access to healthcare and education, foster arts and culture and contribute to the protection of the environment.

As part of the Group's increased impact on sustainability, the Group developed in the first half of 2023, a new Sustainability strategy which has been defined on the basis of the key areas on which the Group has material actual and potential impacts.

As part of its Sustainability strategy, Alpha Bank, in 2023, became the first Greek bank to join the UN-convened Net Zero Banking Alliance (NZBA), having formally committed to achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. This undertaking reflects the Bank's societal responsibility, as a leading financial institution in Greece, to help mitigate climate change and drive the transition to a net zero economy.

Additionally, in order to achieve its objectives, the Group has adopted concrete commitments supported by targets for each of the ESG pillars:

In order to support an environmentally sustainable economy and mitigate climate change, the Group has an ambitious plan, with the main objective being the increase in Sustainable Financings and the reduction of financings that may have a negative impact on the environment. Additionally, the Group has developed policies and procedures in order to reduce the operational environmental footprint with the overarching aim being net-zero emissions and any targets associated with this objective.

In order to foster healthy economies and societal progress, the Group is committed to ensuring a safe and inclusive work environment at all levels, while also safeguarding the society's access to finance as well as to healthcare services and cultural heritage.

In order to ensure robust and transparent governance, which is considered a prerequisite for the Group's license to operate in society as well as its institutional environment, the Group is committed to engaging with its Stakeholders frequently and providing them with transparent and material information, while, at the same time, safeguarding any internal risk controls and business ethics supported by a diverse Board of Directors with a majority of Independent Non- Executive Members.

Regarding the management of the Group's environmental and social footprint, it is noted that actions are being implemented that aim to create a culture that further improves the management of ESG related issues.

Since 2019, an environmental management system has been implemented, which is certified according to ISO 14001 and includes an annual report of CO2 emissions that stem from energy consumption (electricity, natural gas, oil consumption for heating and power generators), the car fleet, business trips, etc. The environmental performance is further assessed through the verification of Greenhouse Gas Emissions, by an independent third party, according to the international standard ISO 14064-1.

Moreover, the Group is taking action in order to maximize the positive effects it has on the Employees and the society at large. Employees and Customers are two of the most important categories of stakeholders for the Group, and for this reason it has adopted the respective policies, practices and corporate responsibility initiatives that promote a safe and open environment for all.

With regards to the governance of any ESG related issues, the Group has established an integrated structure, to ensure effective decision making and implementation at all levels, from the Board of Directors to the operational level.

The "Corporate Governance, Sustainability and Nominations Committee" acts as the ultimate liaison/responsible Board Committee with respect to all sustainability/ESG issues and promotes respective communications and feedback from all Board Committees.

At the executive level, the " Group Sustainability Committee " is responsible for steering and managing all ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) and Sustainability issues.

The Group's targets that have been set in the context of the newly developed Sustainability strategy, the environmental and social initiatives it implements as well as the Group's Governance are analytically presented in 2022 Sustainability Report.

The Group acts responsibly to actively contribute to the protection of the environment and to the conservation of natural resources and is committed to addressing the direct and indirect impacts of its activities on the environment. Additionally, through its participation in the UN Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI), undertaken by financial organizations around the world to promote sustainable development, and in the context of the six Principles for Responsible Banking, which were developed as an international initiative of the UNEP FI and the Bank signed in 2019, it has committed to aligning its operation therewith.

The Company is subject to continuous assessments by international analysts and rating agencies and its already strong ESG performance continues to improve. Moreover, it should be noted, that in the beginning of 2023, Alpha Services and Holdings S.A. managed to increase its ISS ESG rating by two points and received ISS's very significant PRIME STATUS which is only awarded to companies that exceed their sector's normal ESG performance and characteristics.

In January 2023, Alpha Services and Holdings was included for the fifth consecutive year in the Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index (GEI). This index constitutes the only source of investment and qualitative information on gender equality issues globally and it represents 418 companies from 11 sectors across 45 countries. Furthermore, based on the updated assessment of the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), significant progress has also been made in matters of environmental transparency. Specifically, following an evaluation by the CDP, the Bank presented an overall improved performance in 2022, receiving a "B" rating. Additionally, Alpha Services and Holdings is among the listed companies included in the ATHEX ESG Index, which commenced trading on August 2, 2021, aiming to help investors identify Greek companies that present a strong ESG performance.

Finally, Alpha Services and Holdings has achieved the top performance in the field of Corporate Governance in recent report of the sustainability stock index "Financial Times Stock Exchange4Good (FTSE4Good) Index Series", standing out globally as one of the banks that they score so high in that area. Alpha Services and Holdings achieved the highest score, both in the general category of Governance as well as in the individual categories of Corporate Governance, Anti-Corruption and Risk Management. At the same time, the Index confirmed the high score of the Group in the implementation of ESG criteria, categorizing it higher than the average of companies operating in the financial industry.

TRUE TRANSLATION FROM THE ORIGINAL IN GREEK INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REVIEW REPORT

To the Shareholders of "ALPHA SERVICES AND HOLDINGS S.A." Review Report on Condensed Interim Financial Statements Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying separate and consolidated condensed interim balance sheet of the Company and the Group of ALPHA SERVICES AND HOLDINGS S.A. as of 30 June 2023 and the related separate and consolidated condensed interim statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month period then ended, as well as the selected explanatory notes, which together comprise the condensed interim financial statements and which represent an integral part of the semiannual financial report provided by Law 3556/2007.

Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these condensed interim financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union and applicable to Interim Financial Reporting (International Accounting Standard "IAS" 34). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these condensed interim financial statements based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements (ISRE) 2410 "Review of interim financial information performed by the independent auditor of the entity". The review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, as transposed in Greek legislation, and consequently it does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed interim financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34.

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements

Our review has not revealed any material inconsistency or error in the Statement by the Members of the Board of Directors and in the information included in the Board of Directors' Semi-Annual Management Report provided by articles 5 and 5a of Law 3556/2007 when compared to the accompanying condensed interim financial statements.

GENERAL INFORMATION

The Alpha Services and Holding Group, (hereinafter the "Group"), which includes companies in Greece and abroad, offers the following services: corporate and retail banking, financial services, investment banking and brokerage services, insurance services, real estate management, hotel services.

On 16 April 2021, the demerger by way of hive-down of the banking business sector of Alpha Bank S.A. (the "Demerged") was completed and its core banking operations were contributed into a new company – credit institution which was registered under G.E.M.I. on the same date under the name "Alpha Bank S.A." (the "Beneficiary"). Specifically, Alpha Bank S.A substituted the Demerged as universal successor, in all of its assets and liabilities within the banking business sector transferred to it, as these are included in the Transformation balance sheet of 30.6.2020 and were formed until 16.4.2021, the completion date of the demerger.

The "Demerged" by assuming the 100% of the issued shares of Alpha Bank S.A., becomes the parent entity of the bank and its subsdiaries (Alpha Bank Group).

On 19.4.2021 the amendment of the Articles of Incorporation of the "Demerged" was approved, by virtue of the decision of the Ministry of Development and Investments number 45898/19.4.2021, and the banking license of the Demerged was revoked, while its corporate name changed to "Alpha Services and Holdings S.A."

As a result of the above it is noted that in the notes to the Financial Statements "Alpha Bank" (the "Demerged") and "Alpha Services and Holdings S.A." will be mentioned as "the Company", while "Alpha Bank S.A." after the demerger will be mentioned as "the Bank".

The Company's business scope is:

c. the provision of supporting accounting and tax services to affiliated companies and third parties as well as the elaboration of studies on strategic and financial management and

d. the issuance of securities for raising regulatory capital, which are expected to have the form of debit/credit titles. 100% of rights of the Financial Stability Fund was retained after the completion of the Demerger.

The corporate name and distinctive title of the Company were established as "Alpha Services and Holdings S.A." and "Alpha Services and Holdings" respectively. The Company has its registered office at 40 Stadiou Street, Athens and is listed in the General Commercial Register with registration number 223701000 (ex societe anonym registration number 6066/06/B/86/05).

The interim consolidated financial statements as at 30.6.2023 have been prepared based on the going concern basis. For the assessment of going concern assumption, the Board of Directors considered current economic developments and made estimates for the shaping, in the near future, of the economic environment in which it operates. In this context, the Board of Directors assessed the following areas which are considered important:

Developments in the macroeconomic environment

The growth momentum during the first quarter of 2023 reflects the resilience of the Greek economy in the face of adverse external developments, following the war in Ukraine, the energy crisis and inflationary pressures. According to the latest data from ELSTAT (June 2023) the real GDP in the first quarter of 2023 increased by 2.1% on an annual basis, at a rate twice that of the Eurozone (1%) and one of the ten highest among the countries of European Union (EU-27). Economic growth came primarily from private consumption, which rose 2.9% in the first quarter of the year, contributing 2.1 percentage points to the annual GDP growth rate.

Investment registered an annual increase of 8.2% in the first quarter of 2023, maintaining its momentum and contributing to the change in GDP by 1.1 percentage points (pp). Regarding the analysis of investments by category, investments in housing and transport equipment increased at a strong rate, by 48.4% and 42% respectively, while investments in other non-residential constructions increased by 8.1% and other investments by 4.4%. The contribution of net exports was also positive (0.9 p.p.), with the annual increase in exports, and mainly goods, significantly exceeding the increase in imports. Specifically, exports of goods increased more strongly (10.6%) than the corresponding imports (3.2%), while exports of services increased milder (6.2%) than imports (12.7%). Also, public consumption had a positive contribution of 0.3 percentage points, which increased by 1.4% on an annual basis in the first quarter of the year, while, on the contrary, inventories had a negative contribution (-2.3 p.p. incl. statistical differences).

The Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) increased by an average of 9.3% in 2022, primarily due to rising global energy prices - given that Greece is a net energy importer - supply chain disruptions and shortages in raw materials. In the first half of 2023, the growth rate of the index has slowed down, gradually to 2.8% in June from 7.3% in January. The annual average growth rate forecasts according to the European Commission (European Economic Forecast , Spring, May 2023), is 4.2% while according to the Ministry of Finance (Stability Programme, April 2023) and based on the latest estimates of the Bank of Greece (Monetary Policy, June 2023) ) is expected at 4.5% and 4.3% respectively .

GDP growth is also expected to slowdown in 2023 compared to 2022, due to the adverse effects of inflationary pressures on the purchasing power of European citizens and thus on private consumption and exports of services. The implementation of investments under the Recovery and Resilience Fund (€ 7 billion) and the Public Investment Program (€ 8.3 billion) and the strong rise in Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), however, are estimated to maintain the rate of change of GDP in positive ground, in 2023. The European Commission (European Economic Forecast, Spring, May 2023) and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD Economic Outlook, June 2023) predict GDP growth of 2.4% and 2.2% respectively for 2023, while the Ministry of Finance (Stability Program, April 2023) of 2.3%. Finally, according to the Bank of Greece's Monetary Policy Report (June 2023), the Greek economy is projected to grow at a rate of 2.2% in 2023.

The main uncertainties are as follows:

-Geopolitical developments and inflationary pressures: The continuation and outcome of the war in Ukraine can undoubtedly affect the European economies, since the conflict in the territories of the European continent, as well as the energy dependence on Russia led to a sharp increase in energy prices in last year. It is noted, however, that concerns about Europe's energy sufficiency have eased. Both the high filling rate of natural gas storage tanks in Europe and the relatively mild weather conditions in the winter months have contributed to this, as well as the initiatives taken at European level to reduce natural gas consumption.

-The sharp increase in interest rates in the last year and consequently the cost of borrowing for households and businesses, which might have delayed the implementation of investment plans.

-Furthermore, there are risks arising from the speed of absorption of the funds of the Recovery and Resilience fund and the implementation of the program, as well as possible delays in the implementation of reforms.

-Finally, as stated in the Monetary Policy Report of the Bank of Greece (June 2023), additional risks for the prospects of the Greek economy are: (a) the delay and/or reversal of the implementation of reforms, with a negative impact on the productivity and competitiveness of the Greek economy and (b) the appearance of a new generation of Non-Performing Loans (NPLs), due to the increased cost of borrowing and the effects of the energy crisis, following the phasing out of fiscal support measures for businesses and households.

It is noted, however, that the main future challenges for the course of public finances in Greece are exogenous and common to the EU-27 member countries.

In conclusion, despite the volatile economic environment, as defined, among others, by the continuation of the war, the maintenance of inflationary pressures and the sharp increase in interest rates by the main central banks, the Greek economy is expected to remain resilient, reaching an average GDP growth rate of 2.6% in 2023-2026, according to the Ministry of Finance (Stability Programme 2023).

Liquidity

Regarding the liquidity levels of the Group, it is noted that there was no adverse change in terms of the Banks' ability to draw liquidity from the Eurosystem Mechanisms and from money markets (with or without collateral) nor restrictions on the use of the Group's cash reserves as a result of the war between Russia and Ukraine. The Board of Directors of the European Central Bank decided on a series of increases in its intervention interest rates, from the second half of 2022 onwards, in order to ensure a timely return of inflation to the medium-term target of 2%. Additionally in October 2022 it decided to modify the terms of TLTRO III, with the aim of being compatible with the wider monetary policy normalization process, by strengthening the transmission of its relevant decisions to the interbank market and, by extension, to the real economy. This is expected to put downward pressure on inflation, helping to restore price stability over the medium term. The Bank made use of the TLTRO III program of the European Central Bank and ensured long-term liquidity. In February, March and June 2023, in the context of optimizing the Group's liquidity management, and having sufficient reserves, the Bank decided to prepay €8 billion in total of the European Central Bank's TLTRO-III program, following the relevant modification of its terms. In this context, the total financing from the European Central Bank on 30.6.2023 amounts to € 5 billion (note 16). The Bank, continuing to implement the strategy of achieving the MREL targets in a sustainable manner, while improving its financial profile and diversifying its funding sources, issued in October and December 2022 senior bonds of € 400 million and € 450 million with a term of three and four years and six months respectively. The second issuance replaced the December 2021 issuance. Also significant liquidity was drawn from the issuance of AT1 bond referred below in the capital adequacy section. Finally, in June 2023 the Bank proceeded with the issuance of a senior preferred bond of an amount of € 500 million with a six-year term. In addition, the European Central Bank, in its

decisions in March, April and December 2020, accepted the securities of the Hellenic Republic as collateral for liquidity operations while deposits increased by € 1.2 billion. Term deposits increased by € 3.5 billion. As a result of the above, the liquidity ratios (liquidity coverage ratio and net stable funding ratio) exceed the supervisory limits that have been set. Moreover, considering the conditions that form the current economic environment, stress test exercises are carried out regularly (at least monthly) for liquidity purposes, in order to assess possible outflows (contractual or potential). The Group completes successfully the liquidity short term stress scenarios (idiosyncratic, systemic and combined), retaining a high liquidity buffer. As a result, based on the Group's plan as well on internal stress tests the Group has sufficient liquidity reserves to meet its needs.

Capital Adequacy

On 30.6.2023, the Common Equity Tier I of the Group stands at 13.5%, while the Total Capital Adequacy Ratio at 17.8% (as further described in note 27), significantly increased and well above capital requirements, mainly due to the strong profitability of the six-month period and the successful completion into the first half of 2023 of the scheduled transactions according to the Business Plan. The Bank in order to strengthen its capital proceeded on 4.3.2021 to the issuance of new Tier 2 bond amounting to € 500 million, with a 10.25-year maturity while, on 8.2.2023, Alpha Services and Holdings issued a perpetual Additional Tier I bond amounting to € 400 million. Taking into consideration the results of internal capital adequacy assessment process (ICAAP), the fact that Alpha Services and Holdings successfully concluded the EU-wide 2023 Stress Test as well as the actions that aim in the creation of internal capital through profitability, it is estimated that for the next 12 months the Total Capital Adequacy Ratio and the MREL ratio will remain higher than the required minimum levels.

Updated Strategic Plan up to 2025

According to the updated Strategic Plan for the period 2023-2025, the Group's Strategy is based on the following 6 pillars that will lead to an increase in the profitability of the Group as a whole:

  • Enhancing digital services and focusing on high value activities in retail banking
  • Reshaping the service model to increase market share in the Wealth Management sector
  • Maintaining of the leadership position in Wholesale Banking
  • Improving the profitability performance of the Group's international activities
  • Maintaining balance sheet resilience
  • Full adoption and utilization of ESG criteria as a catalyst for value creation

In the years 2023-2025, the Bank will focus on the following three financial priorities:

  • a) Increase in profitability
  • Significant improvement in profitability in all Business Units, and reallocation of funds due to further reduction of Non-Performing Exposures
  • Revenue boost supported by a strong performance in Net Interest Income:
  • Disciplined cost management, thereby limiting the impact of inflationary pressures and reducing operating expenses through specific actions
  • Improvement of the Group's Cost-to-Income Ratio, as a result of increasing revenues and reducing costs.
  • b) Balance sheet resilience
  • Diversified and resilient balance sheet, with liquid assets
  • Reduction (above €1 billion) of non-performing exposures, mainly through organic deleveraging, further reduction of the NPE ratio and improvement of the NPE coverage ratio as well as further de-escalation of the Credit Risk Cost
  • Broad, well-diversified and resilient deposit base
  • c) Creation and distribution of capital
  • Capital creation due to significant returns within 3 years
  • Achieve a higher Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio with full implementation of Basel III (FL CET1)
  • Resumption of dividend payment from 2023 earnings, subject to regulatory approval

Based on the above and taking into account:

  • the Group's capital adequacy ratio that is significantly higher than the required minimum levels, the MREL ratio that is higher than the mid-level, as well as the specific actions the Bank has planned to further strengthen the ratios,
  • the satisfactory liquidity of the Group,
  • the actions included in the update strategic plan up to 2025,
  • the fact that any impact on the Group's financial result from inflation and increase in base rates is expected to be positive as it is estimated that the higher performance of operating income, as a result of the balance sheet structure, will exceed the expected increases in operating expenses,
  • the expected positive growth rate of the Greek Economy despite the adverse effects caused by inflationary pressures mainly in terms of energy prices and additionally the implementation of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan, within the framework of the EU's "Next Generation EU" program, through which Greece is expected to receive a total of €30.5 billion by 2026,
  • that even though the prolonged duration as well as the form that the Russia and Ukraine war conflict will possibly take may adversely affect the macroeconomic environment, the Group has limited exposure to Russian and Ukrainian economy as well as significant buffers of capital adequacy and liquidity,
  • that the Group confirms its stability and resistance to external negative market factors based on:
    • the Bank's broad and well-diversified deposit base with private deposits accounting for 70% of its total deposits
    • the absence of concentrations in deposits as well as the existence of low average balances,
    • the supervisory liquidity ratios that stand on a consistent basis above the supervisory requirements. In particular, the liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) and the net stable funding ratio (NSFR) significantly increased and reached 176% and 127% respectively, mainly due to the increase of deposits, the repayment of TLTRO and the senior preferred issuance,
    • the maintenance of an investment portfolio, 86% of which consists of high-quality liquid assets and which, after the relevant interest rate risk hedges, presents a low repricing cycle,
    • the balanced interest rate risk profile on its banking book, responding successfully to interest rate shock scenarios (i.e. Economic Value of Equity/TIER I capital), with a balance sheet composition of predominantly floating rate loans against a low concentration, diversified deposit base,
    • as mentioned above, its strong capital adequacy and satisfactory liquidity,

the Board of Directors estimates that, at least for the next 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements, the conditions for the application of the going concern principle for the preparation of its consolidated financial statements are met.

1.1.2 Adoption of new standards and of amendments to standards

The following are the new standards and the amendments to standards applied from 1.1.2023:

International Financial Reporting Standard 17 "Insurance Contracts" and Amendment to International Financial Reporting Standard 17 "Insurance Contracts" (Regulation 2021/2036/19.11.2021).

On 18.5.2017 the International Accounting Standards Board issued IFRS 17 which replaces IFRS 4 "Insurance Contracts". In contrast to IFRS 4, the new standard introduces a consistent methodology for the measurement of insurance contracts. The key principles in IFRS 17 are the following:

An entity:

  • identifies as insurance contracts those contracts under which the entity accepts significant insurance risk from another party (the policyholder) by agreeing to compensate the policyholder if a specified uncertain future event adversely affects the policyholder;
  • separates specified embedded derivatives, distinct investment components and distinct performance obligations from the insurance contracts;
  • divides the contracts into groups that it will recognise and measure;
  • recognises and measures groups of insurance contracts at:
  • i. a risk-adjusted present value of the future cash flows (the fulfilment cash flows) that incorporates all of the available information about the fulfilment cash flows in a way that is consistent with observable market information; and
  • ii. an amount representing the unearned profit in the group of contracts (the contractual service margin);
  • recognises the profit from a group of insurance contracts over the period the entity provides insurance cover, and as the entity is released from risk. If a group of contracts is or becomes loss-making, an entity recognises the loss immediately;
  • presents separately insurance revenue, insurance service expenses and insurance finance income or expenses; and
  • discloses information to enable users of financial statements to assess the effect that contracts within the scope of IFRS 17 have on the financial position, financial performance and cash flows of an entity.

On 25.6.2020 the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to IFRS 17 which aimed to ease implementation of the standard and make it easier for entities to explain their financial performance. Additionally, with the amendment the effective date of the standard was postponed to 1.1.2023.

Finally, it is noted that under the Regulation of the European Union that adopted above standard, an entity may choose not to apply paragraph 22 of the standard, in accordance with which an entity shall not include contracts issued more than one year apart in the same group, to:

(a) groups of insurance contracts with direct participation features and groups of investment contracts with discretionary participation features and with cash flows that affect or are affected by cash flows to policyholders of other contracts; (b) groups of insurance contracts that are managed across generations of contracts and that meet the conditions laid down in Article 77b of Directive 2009/138/EC and have been approved by supervisory authorities for the application of the matching adjustment.

For the application of the new standard, a project was implemented in the subsidiary entity Alpha Life. As part of this project, management has assessed which contracts are in scope of IFRS 17. It was assessed whether the contracts expose the insurance company to significant insurance risk, thus included in scope of IFRS 17 as insurance contracts, whereas contracts not bearing significant insurance risk were reclassified retrospectively to investment contracts measured in accordance with IFRS9. Key decisions taken with regards to classification and measurement of insurance contracts are the following:

• Separating components from an insurance contract

The Group identified that insurance contracts within the standard (unit-linked) include an investment component, the amount of surrender value, that was not separated from the host insurance contract and was not recognized as distinct investment component.

• Level of aggregation

The Group has finalized the assessment of the level of aggregation of insurance contracts within IFRS 17 scope and the process of defining the level of aggregation, as well as the method for establishing the level of profitability of each contract. The same group includes contracts that are issued within a calendar year (annual cohort). The annual cohort of insurance contracts was determined based on the calendar year i.e. 1.1-31.12.

• Measurement

For the measurement of insurance contracts, the variable fee approach was used. More specifically, on initial recognition, the value of a group of insurance contracts issued corresponds to the sum of the following items:

a) fulfillment cash flows that include:

i) future cash flows estimated as at the effective date of the contract that are within the boundary of the insurance contract, ii) an adjustment to reflect the time value of money and the financial risks related to the future cash flows, to the extent that

the financial risks are not included in the estimates of the future cash flows, and

  • iii) a risk adjustment for non-financial risk.
  • b) the contractual service margin (unearned profit that will be recognized as insurance contract services are provided in the future).

• Contract boundary

Since insurance contracts do not offer additional coverage, the contract boundary was determined to be their contractual term.

• Fulfillment cash flows

The cash inflows and outflows taken into consideration in measurement are those that are directly related to the fulfillment of the contract, i.e., premiums, payments to a policyholder, insurance acquisition cash flows, administration costs etc.

Since the measurement is performed at the group of contracts level, costs that fall within the scope of IFRS 17, the allocation method of costs based on their nature, and the parameters and assumptions incorporated into the actuarial models were determined.

• Discount rate

The discount rate applied to the estimates of the future cash flows is the risk-free yield curve as determined by ΕΙΟPA.

• Risk adjustment for non-financial risk

Risks covered are insurance risk and other non-financial risks such as risk of early termination due to non-payment and expenses risk. The cost of capital method was used to derive the risk adjustment for non-financial risk. In addition, the Group has elected not to disaggregate the change in the risk adjustment for non-financial risk, i.e., include the entire change as part of the insurance service result.

• Contractual service margin

The contractual service margin is determined on initial recognition of a group of insurance contracts at an amount that, at that date, is equal with an opposite sign to the estimated future cash flows. Subsequently, the amount of contractual service margin is adjusted for changes in the Group's share of the fair value of assets, the effect of any new contracts, changes in the fulfilment cash flows and in the amount recognized as insurance revenue for services provided during the period. The carrying amount of a group of insurance contracts at the end of each reporting period shall be the sum of:

    1. The liability for remaining coverage (fulfillment cash flows related to future service allocated and the contractual service margin) and
    1. The liability for incurred claims (fulfillment cash flows related to past service).

In this context the coverage units were determined in order for the carrying amount of the Contractual Service Margin at the end of the reporting period to be equally allocated to each coverage unit provided in the period and expected to be provided in the future. The methodology for the determination of coverage units has been determined by considering for each contract the quantity of the benefits provided and the expected coverage duration, and in particular by taking into consideration the fund value.

The impact from the application of IFRS 17 on the financial statements of the Group is presented in note 32.

‣ Amendment to International Financial reporting Standard 17: "Insurance Contracts": Initial Application of IFRS 17 and IFRS 9 – Comparative information (Regulation 2022/1491/8.9.2022).

On 9.12.2021 the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to IFRS 17 according to which entities are permitted on initial application of IFRS 17 to classify financial assets in the comparative period in a way that aligns with how the entity would classify them on IFRS 9 transition. The amendment specifies how this option is applied depending on whether the entity applies IFRS 9 for the first time at the same time as IFRS 17 or whether it has already applied it in a previous period. The adoption of the above amendment had no impact on the financial statements of the Group.

‣ Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements": Disclosure of accounting policies (Regulation 2022/357/2.3.2022).

On 12.2.2021 the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to IAS 1 with which it clarified that:

  • An entity shall disclose material accounting policy information. Accounting policy information is material if, when considered together with other information included in an entity's financial statements, it can reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of financial statements make.
  • Accounting policy information that relates to immaterial transactions is immaterial and need not be disclosed. Accounting policy information may nevertheless be material because of the nature of the related transactions even if the amounts are immaterial. However, not all accounting policy information relating to material transactions and other events is itself material.
  • Accounting policy information is material if users of an entity's financial statements would need it to understand other material information in the financial statements.
  • Accounting policy information that focuses on how an entity has applied an accounting policy is more useful to users of financial statements than standardized information or information that only summarizes the requirements of IFRSs.
  • If an entity discloses immaterial accounting policy information, such information shall not obscure material accounting policy information.

The adoption of the above amendment had no impact on the financial statements of the Group.

‣ Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 8 "Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors": Definition of accounting estimates (Regulation 2022/357/2.3.2022).

On 12.2.2021 the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to IAS 8 with which:

  • Defined accounting estimates as monetary amounts in financial statements that are subject to measurement uncertainty.
  • Clarified that an accounting policy may require items in financial statements to be measured in a way that involves measurement uncertainty. In such a case, an entity develops an accounting estimate. Developing accounting estimates involves the use of judgements and assumptions.
  • An entity uses measurement techniques and inputs to develop an accounting estimate.
  • An entity may need to change an accounting estimate. By its nature, a change in an accounting estimate does not relate to prior periods and is not the correction of an error. A change in an input or a change in a measurement technique are

changes in accounting estimates unless they result from the correction of prior period errors.

The adoption of the above amendment had no impact on the financial statements of the Group.

‣ Amendment to International Accounting Standard 12 "Income Taxes": Deferred tax related to assets and liabilities arising from a single transaction (Regulation 2022/1392/11.8.2022)

On 7.5.2021 the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to IAS 12 with which it narrowed the scope of the recognition exception according to which, in specific circumstances, entities are exempt from recognising deferred tax when they recognise assets or liabilities for the first time. The amendment clarifies that the exception no longer applies to transactions that, on initial recognition, give rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences.

The adoption of the above amendment had no impact on the financial statements of the Group. In addition, the International Accounting Standards Board has issued the following standards and amendments to standards

which have not yet been adopted by the European Union and which have not been applied by the Group.

‣ Amendment to International Financial Reporting Standard 10 "Consolidated Financial Statements" and to International Accounting Standard 28 "Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures": Sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture.

Effective date: To be determined.

‣ International Financial Reporting Standard 14 "Regulatory deferral accounts"

Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2016

The above standard does not apply to the financial statements of the Group.

‣ Amendment to International Financial Reporting Standard 16 "Leases": Lease liability in a sale and leaseback

Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2024

The Group is examining the impact from the adoption of the above amendment on its financial statements.

‣ Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements": Classification of liabilities as current or non-current

Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2024

The above amendment will have no impact on the financial statements of the Group since in Group's balance sheet liabilities are not classified as current and non-current.

‣ Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements": Non-current liabilities with covenants

Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2024

The above amendment will have no impact on the financial statements of the Group since in Group's balance sheet liabilities are not classified as current and non-current.

‣ Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 7 "Statement of Cash Flows" and Amendment to the International Financial Reporting Standards 7 "Financial Instruments: Disclosures": Supplier Finance Arrangements

Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2024

On 25.5.2023, the International Accounting Standards Board amended IAS 7 and IFRS 7 for the purpose of providing disclosures regarding supplier finance arrangements. These are agreements that companies enter into with third party finance providers, who undertake to repay amounts the entities owe their suppliers. Then the entity will have to repay the third-party finance provider based on the terms of the agreement between them. The amendment of the IAS 7 required the provision of information regarding the terms of the agreements in question, the carrying amount of the relevant liability on the balance sheet, the non-cash changes in the liability balances, the amounts with which third party finance providers have already repaid

the suppliers and the range of payment due dates Also, IFRS 7 was amended to include access to such agreements with third finance providers in the liquidity risk disclosures.

The Group is examining the impact from the adoption of the above amendments on its financial statements.

‣ Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 12 "Income Taxes": International Tax Reform – Pillar Two Model Rules

Effective immediately and for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2023

On 23.5.2023, the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to the IAS. 12 in order to provide guidance regarding the treatment of the provisions imposed through the Pillar Two Model Rules of the International Tax Reform. In particular, according to the amendment, an entity:

  • Shall neither recognize nor disclose information regarding deferred tax assets and liabilities arising from Pillar Two income tax.

-It shall disclose that it has applied above exception.

-It shall disclose separately its current tax expense (income) related to Pillar Two income taxes.

-In periods in which Pillar Two legislation has been enacted (or substantially enacted) but not yet in effect, it shall disclose known or reasonably estimable information that help users of financial statements understand its exposure to Pillar Two income taxes.

The Group is examining the impact from the adoption of the above amendment on its financial statements.

Further analysis regarding the above standards that were issued before the publication date of the annual financial statements of 31.12.2022 is provided in note 1.1.2 of the annual financial statements as at 31.12.2022.

1.2 Significant accounting judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty

Significant accounting judgments

The Group, in the context of applying accounting policies, makes judgments and assessments which have a significant impact on the amounts recognized in the financial statements. Those judgements relate to the following:

Business Model Assessment

The Group, on the initial recognition of a debt financial asset, exercises judgment in order to determine the business model in which it would be classified, taking into account the way of evaluating its performance, the risks associated with it as well as the expected frequency and value of sales. Also, on a quarterly basis, it exercises judgment in order to reassess the business models, taking into account the sales that have been made as well as any changes in the management operating model of the assets. Based on this assessment, it decides whether it should define new business models or in rare circumstances proceed with the reclassification of financial assets to another business model.

Assessment of whether contractual cash flows of a debt financial instrument represent solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding (SPPI)

The Group, at initial recognition of a debt financial asset, assesses whether cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The assessment requires judgement mainly on:

  • Whether contractual terms that affect the performance of the instrument relate solely to credit risk, other basic lending risks and profit margin.
  • For loans in special purpose entities, whether there is a non-recourse feature. The assessment is based on specific index thresholds as well as on the evaluation of the adequacy of equity and of the collaterals that are not related to the asset being financed.
  • Whether in case of prepayment or extension the compensation received is considered fair.
  • Whether in loans with ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) criteria, the change in credit spread based on the satisfaction of those ESG criteria is borrower specific and whether it relates to the change in credit risk and/or change in profit margin.

The application of different judgments could affect the amount of financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss.

Significant judgements relating to the selection of methodologies and models for expected credit losses calculation

The Group, in the context of the application of its accounting policies for the measurement of the expected credit losses makes judgments in order to identify:

  • the criteria that indicate a significant increase in credit risk,
  • the selection of appropriate methodologies for expected credit loss estimation (expected credit loss calculation on an individual or on a collective basis),
  • the selection and development of appropriate models used to calculate the exposure at default (EAD) by financial instrument category, the probability of default (PD), the estimated expected credit loss at the time of default (LGD) as well as the selection of appropriate parameters and economic forecasts used in them,
  • the selection of appropriate macroeconomic parameters affecting the expected credit risk loss,
  • the selection of the parameters used in the models to determine the expected life and the date of initial recognition of revolving exposures,
  • the grouping of financial assets based on similar credit risk characteristics,
  • the methodology for the integration in the calculation of the expected credit losses of the management actions and the alternative ways of recovering the value of the loans.

Applying different judgments could significantly affect the financial instruments classified in stage 2 and/ or significantly differentiate expected credit loss calculations.

Income Tax (notes 10, 21)

The recognition of assets and liabilities for current and deferred tax is affected, inter alia, by the interpretation of the applicable tax legislation, the practical implementation of the relevant legislation and the settlement of disputes that might exist with tax authorities. When assessing the tax treatment of all significant transactions, the Group takes into account and evaluates all available data (Circulars of the Ministry of Finance, case law, administrative practices, etc.) and / or opinions received from internal and external legal advisers. Future tax audits and changes in tax legislation may result in the adjustment of the amount of assets and liabilities for current and deferred tax and in tax payments other than those recognized in the financial statements of the Group.

Classification of non-current assets held for sale (note 29)

The Group classifies non-current assets or disposal groups that are expected to be recovered principally through a sale transaction, along with the related liabilities, as held-for-sale when the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition and its sale is highly probable to be completed within one year. The assessment of whether the above criteria are met requires judgment mainly as to whether the sale is likely to be completed within one year from the classification of the non-current assets or disposal group as held for sale. In the context of this assessment in which any previous experience from corresponding transactions is also considered, the Group takes into account elements such as any requirement for approvals (both regulatory and those given by the General Meeting and the Committees of the Group), the existence of offers (binding or not) and the status of the signed agreements with investors as well as of any conditions included in them. In addition, current economic conditions are taken into account which may affect the time of completion of sales transactions. In the event that the sale is not completed within one year from the classification of the non-current assets or disposal group as held for sale, judgment is exercised in order to assess whether the cause of the delay is outside the Group's control as well as whether the Group continues to be committed to the program for their disposal and the sale is considered likely to occur.

Assessment of control of over special purpose entities

The Group in the context of its actions for liquidity and its strategies for management of loans proceeds with the securitization of assets through the establishment of special purpose entities whose activities are guided by contractual agreements. The Group makes judgments in order to assess whether it controls those companies taking into account the possibility to make decisions on their relative activities as well as the degree of its exposure to the variability of their returns.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

Key sources of estimation uncertainty used by the Group in the context of applying its accounting principles and relating to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period are presented below. Final amounts in the next periods may be significantly different from those recognised in these financial statements.

Fair value of assets and liabilities (notes 25, 29)

For assets and liabilities traded in active markets, the determination of their fair value is based on quoted, market prices. In all other cases the determination of fair value is based on valuation techniques that use observable market data to the greatest extent possible. In cases where there is no observable market data, the fair value is determined using data that are based on internal estimates and assumptions i.e. determination of expected cash flows, discount rates, prepayment probabilities or counterparty default. Fair value measurement of receivables arising from sale transactions is based on significant unobservable inputs such as the expected cash flows from the management of the underlying receivables portfolio and the business plan of the companies sold.

Estimates included in the calculation of expected credit losses of financial assets (notes 9, 26)

The measurement of expected credit losses requires the use of complex models and significant estimates of future economic conditions and credit behavior, taking into account the events that have occurred until reporting date. The significant estimates relate to:

  • the determination of the alternative macroeconomic scenarios and the cumulative probabilities associated with these scenarios,
  • the probability of default during a specific time period based on historical data, assumptions and estimates for the future,
  • the determination of the expected cash flows and the flows from the liquidation of collaterals for financial instruments,
  • the determination of the adjustments to the expected credit loss balance to incorporate recent developments and data that cannot be estimated through the models for the calculation of the parameters of expected credit loss and
  • the integration of loan portfolio sales scenarios taking into account on the one hand any factors that may hinder the realization of the sale and on the other hand the level of satisfaction of the conditions for the completion of the sale.

Impairment losses on investments in associates and joint ventures and on non - financial assets (note 8)

The Group, at each reporting date, assesses for impairment right-of-use assets, goodwill and other intangible assets, as well as its investments in associates and joint ventures and at least on an annual basis property, plant and equipment and investment property. Management estimates the recoverable amount of the assets, i.e. the higher between the fair value less costs to sell and value in use by performing an impairment exercise, which includes inputs and assumptions that are inherently uncertain. In cases where the sale of such items is imminent, the fair value derives from the estimated price of the transaction considering any other element that could impact the recoverable amount upon the completion of the transaction.

Employee defined benefit obligations

Defined benefit obligations are estimated based on actuarial valuations, which are mainly conducted on an annual basis, that incorporate assumptions regarding discount rates, future changes in salaries and pensions, as well as the return on any plan assets. Any change in these assumptions will affect the amount of obligations recognized.

Provisions

The amounts recognized by the Group in its financial statements as provisions are derived from the best estimate of the possible outflow required to settle the present obligation. This estimate is determined by Management after taking into account factors such as experience from relevant transactions, the degree of complexity of each case, the actions taken to settle it as well as expert reports when considered necessary. In case the amount recognized as a provision is affected by a variety of factors, its calculation is based on the weighting of all possible results. At each reporting date, provisions are revised to reflect current best estimates of the obligation.

Recoverability of deferred tax assets

The Group recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it is probable that it will have sufficient future taxable profit available, against which, deductible temporary differences and tax losses carried forward can be utilized.

The information stated in note 1.3 of annual financial statements of 31.12.2022 regarding the main categories of deferred tax assets recognized in the financial statements also applies as at 30.06.2023. Regarding the methodology applied for the recoverability assessment, what is stated in the aforementioned note of the annual financial statements is also applicable, taking also into consideration the elements that formed the result of the current period. In addition, it is noted that in the case of imminent transactions with third parties with a significant degree of complexity, the data included in the deferred tax assets recoverability exercise represent the best possible estimates of the Group, taking also into account the degree of implementation of each transaction. As the terms of the upcoming transactions become more specific, data are adjusted accordingly.

The estimates and judgments applied by the Group in making decisions and in preparing the financial statements are based on historical information and assumptions which at present are considered appropriate. The estimates and judgments are reviewed at each reporting period in order to take into account current conditions, and the effect of any changes is recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised.

Net interest income 863,733 581,604 440,092 300,536

Net interest income of the period increased compared to the corresponding period of 2022 mainly due to interest rates increase that has affected mainly the asset side of our balance sheet and specifically the loan and bond portfolios as well as the interest due from banks. The abovementioned increase was partially offset with the increased cost of funding due to changes in ECB rates, new bond issuances that took place in the fourth quarter of 2022 and the gradual increase in term deposit interest rates. In addition and following the NPE deleveraging through the NPE sales transaction and the growth in Performing Loans, the quality of the loan net interest income has been improved.

Net fee and commission income during the first half of 2023 has been decreased mainly as a result of the sale of merchant acquiring business of the Bank that took place on 30.6.2022. Moreover the H1 result was affected by the decrease of commissions from bond and syndicated loans, and was partially counterbalanced by increased fees from transactions and letter of guarantees.

In the first half of 2023, staff costs show an increase compared to the corresponding half of 2022 in wages and salaries, mainly due to the implementation of the Banks' Collective Labor Agreement from 1.12.2022 and salary income that took place in the forth quarter of 2022. Simultaneously, the decrease in 'Social security contributions' are due to the reduction of 0.5% in supplementary insurance contributions since 1.6.2022.

Taking into account the developments regarding the sale transactions of NPL portfolios which are included in the Business plan for the management of non-performing exposures (NPE Business Plan), as described in note 29 "Items of Assets Held for Sale", the calculation of expected credit losses incorporates a sale scenario with 100% probability, for the following portfolios:

  • Portfolio of non-performing wholesale loans ("Solar" and "Hermes" transactions) of which "Hermes" transaction was completed within May 2023
  • Portfolio of non-performing leases of Alpha Leasing S.A. ("Leasing" transaction).
  • Portfolio of non-performing exposures in Cyprus (Sky transaction) for which transaction was executed within June 2023.

* Certain figures of the previous period have been restated as described in note 32.

In the current period an additional charge of € 46.5 mn. was recognised for the above mentioned portfolios. Additionally, a sale scenario was applied for retail unsecured loans in the context of the Business Plan for the management of non-performing exposures up to 2025 (NPE Business Plan) and resulted to impairment losses for the period of € 11.1 mn. "Losses from modifications of contractual terms of loans and advances to customers" were affected by the cost of the initiative that the Bank announced on 11.4.2023 that from 2.5.2023 and for a period of 12 months will reward consistent mortgage loan customers with floating-rate mortgage loans (as well as with floating consumer loans collateralized with a mortgage) by introducing a cap to the base rate, in order to protect borrowers against future increases in reference rates. The introduction of the cap triggered a modification loss recognition of Euro 9 mn arising from those loans for which the cap was effective from 2.5.2023; the amount of modification loss will be amortised in interest income within a period of 12 months. In June 2023 the Bank proceeded to a new synthetic securitization transaction of wholesale loans named Compass for which expenses of € 2.4 mn. were recognised in the financial line "Commission expenses for credit protection".

The completion of project Sky was finalized in June of 2023, by which the Parent company, Alpha International Holdings, transferred the shares of its affiliate Sky CAC Ltd, to investors. In Sky CAC Ltd, prior to the sale, loans and real estate assets were transferred from other Cypriot companies of the Group. Upon the completion of the transaction a tax loss of € 65 mn. was recognised in the company books. The company did not calculate deferred tax asset of € 14 mn., due to the above tax loss because there are not enough tax profits expected in the future. The above mentioned amount of deffered tax asset, is presented in the line "non-recognition of deferred tax for tax losses carried forward " in the table above.

The nominal tax rate is the average tax rate resulting from the income tax, based on the nominal tax rate, and the pre-tax results, for the parent and for each of the Group's subsidiaries.

In the context of Stock Options Plan through which stock options rights were granted to management and personnel of the Company and the Group, in January 2023, 700,783 options rights vested and exercised from the beneficiaries, in accordance with Performance Incentive Program for the years of 2018, 2019 and 2020. As a result of the above, 700,783 ordinary, registered, voting shares with nominal value of € 0.29 were issued in January, the Share Capital of the Company increased by € 204 and the share premium by € 507.

b. Diluted

Diluted earnings/(losses) per share are calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period with the dilutive potential ordinary shares. The Company holds shares of this category, arising from a plan of awarding stock option rights to employees of the Company and other Group entities.

For the calculation of the diluted earnings per share, it is assumed that the option rights are exercised and that the related hypothetical inflows derive from the issuance of ordinary shares at the average market price of the year during which the options were outstanding. The difference between the number of options to be granted and the ordinary shares issued at the average market price for ordinary shares, is treated as issuance of ordinary shares without exchange.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

21. Contingent liabilities and commitments

a. Legal issues

There are certain legal claims against the Group, deriving from the ordinary course of business. In the context of managing the operational risk events and based on the applied accounting policies, the Group has established internal controls and processes to monitor all legal claims and similar actions by third parties in order to assess the probability of a negative outcome and the potential loss.

For cases where there is a significant probability of a negative outcome, and the result may be reliably estimated, the Group recognizes a provision that is included in the Balance Sheet under "Provisions". As of 30.6.2023 the amount of the provision stood at € 32,884 (31.12.2022: € 32,129).

For those cases, that according to their progress and the assessment of the legal department as of 30 June 2023, a negative outcome is not probable or the possible loss cannot be estimated reliably due to the complexity of the cases and their duration, the Group has not established a provision. As of 30.6.2023 the legal claims against the Group for the above cases amount to € 135,049 (31.12.2022: € 90,566) and € 134,190 (31.12.2022: € 470,563), respectively.

In December 2022, the European Council adopted the EU Directive 2022/2523 for a global minimum tax that is expected to be used by individual jurisdictions. The goal of the framework is to reduce the shifting of profit from one jurisdiction to another, in order to reduce global tax obligations in corporate structures. In March 2022, the OECD released detailed technical guidance on Pillar Two of the rules. As at the date of approval of the interim financial statements, none of the jurisdictions where the Group operates have enacted legislation to incorporate these tax changes into domestic law. Therefore, the Group is unable to determine the potential effect of any future changes to legislation. Alpha Services and Holdings is nonetheless taking every necessary action to assess the potential impact of those rules on the Group.

c. Off Balance Sheet commitments

The Group, as part of its normal course of business, enters into contractual commitments, that in the future may result in changes in its asset structure. These commitments are monitored in off balance sheet accounts and relate to letters of credit, letters of guarantee and liabilities from undrawn loan commitments as well as guarantees given for bonds issued and other guarantees to subsidiary companies.

Letters of credit are used to facilitate trading activities and relate to the financing of contractual agreements for the transfer of goods locally or abroad, through direct payment to the third party on behalf of the Group's customers. Letters of credit, as well as letters of guarantee, are commitments under specific terms and are issued by the Group for the purpose of ensuring that its customers will fulfill the terms of their contractual obligations.

In addition, contingent liabilities for the Group arise from undrawn loan commitments that can be utilized only if certain requirements are fulfilled by counterparties.

The outstanding balances are as follows:

30.6.2023 31.12.2022
Letters of credit 40,902 45,960
Letters of guarantee and other guarantees 5,005,016 4,605,197
Undrawn loan commitments 5,270,551 4,886,404

The Group measures the expected credit losses for all the undrawn loan commitments and letters of credit/letters of guarantee, which are included in the caption of Balance Sheet "Provisions". Expected credit losses of the aforementioned exposures as of 30.6.2023 amounts to € 39,700 (31.12.2022: € 40,783).

Alpha Bank S.A. has also committed to contribute to the share capital of the joint venture Alpha TANEO AKES up to the amount of € 49 (31.12.2022: € 19).

Therefore, the Bank exerts a significant influence on the special purpose company. As the Bank does not participate in its share capital and has no exposure to any of its equity instruments, the equity method is not applicable.
  • It also includes the special purpose company Aurora SME I DAC through which the Bank in December 2021 made a synthetic securitization transaction of small and medium and large business loans.

The above tables set out the fair values and carrying amounts of those financial assets that are not measured at fair value.

The fair value of loans and advances to customers measured at amortised cost is estimated using a model for discounting the contractual future cash flows until maturity. The components of the discount rate are the interbank market yield curve, the liquidity premium, the operational cost, the capital requirement, and the expected loss rate.

For the loans that for credit risk purposes are classified as impaired and are individually assessed for impairment, the model uses the expected future cash flows excluding expected credit losses. For the fair valuation of the impaired loans which are collectively assessed for impairment, estimates are made for principal repayment after considering the allowance for expected credit losses.

The discount rate of impaired loans is constituted of the interbank market yield curve, the liquidity premium, the operational cost, and the capital requirement. The fair value of debt securities classified as Loans and advances to customers and measured at amortized cost, is being calculated through the use of a model for discounting the contractual future cash flows considering their credit risk. The fair value of deposits is estimated based on the interbank market yield curve the operational cost and the liquidity premium until their maturity.

The fair value of investment and debt securities is calculated on the basis of market prices, where there is an active market. In other cases, the discounted cash flow method is applied, where all substantial variables are based either on observable data or on a combination of observable and unobservable market data.

The fair value of deposits is estimated based on the interbank market yield curve the operational cost and the liquidity premium until their maturity.

The fair value of liabilities from insurance contracts measured under IFRS 9, which is included in "Due to customers", is calculated using the Market Consistent Embedded Value (MCEV).

The fair value of the remaining financial assets and liabilities which are measured at amortised cost does not differ materially from their respective carrying amount.

* Certain figures of the previous period have been restated as described in note 32.

The above tables present the fair value hierarchy of financial instruments measured at fair value per fair value hierarchy level based on the significance of the data used for its determination. The valuation methodology of debt securities is approved by the Asset Liability Committee.

Level 1 includes securities which are traded in an active market and exchange-traded derivatives.

Level 2 includes securities whose fair value is calculated based on non-binding market prices provided by dealers-brokers or securities whose fair value is estimated based the income approach methodology with the use of interest rates and credit spreads which are observable in the market.

Level 3 includes securities the fair value of which is estimated using significant unobservable inputs

The fair value calculation methodology has not been amended as consequence of the Russia Ukraine war. It is noted that specifically for securities whose fair value is calculated based on market prices, bid prices are used and daily checks are performed with regards to their change in fair value.

The fair value of loans measured at fair value through profit or loss, is estimated based on the valuation methodology as described above in the disclosure of fair value for loans measured at amortized cost. Given that the data used for the calculation of fair value are non-observable, loans are classified at Level 3.

Shares which are traded in active market are included in Level 1. Shares, the fair value of which is computational, are classified to Level 2 or Level 3, depending on the extent of the contribution of unobservable data in the calculation of the fair value. The fair value of non-listed shares, as well as shares not traded in an active market is determined either based on the Group's share on the issuer's equity or by the multiples valuation method or the estimations made by the Group regarding the future

profitability of the issuer considering the expected growth rate of its operations, as well as the weighted average rate of capital return which is used as discount rate.

Income methodologies are used for the valuation of over-the-counter derivatives: discounted cash flow models, option calculation models, or other widely accepted economic valuation models.

The valuation methodology of the over-the-counter derivatives is approved by the Assets Liabilities Committee. Mid prices are considered as both long and short positions may be open. Valuations are checked on a daily basis with the respective prices of counterparty banks or central clearing houses in the context of the daily process of provision of collaterals and settlement of derivatives. If the non-observable inputs used for the determination of fair value are significant, then the above financial assets are classified as Level 3 or otherwise as Level 2.

In addition, the Group calculates the credit valuation adjustment (CVA) in order to consider, the counterparty credit risk for the OTC derivatives. In particular, taking into consideration its own credit risk, the Group calculates the bilateral credit valuation adjustment (Bilateral CVA/BCVA) for the OTC derivatives held on a counterparty level according to netting and collateral agreements in force. BCVA is calculated across all counterparties with a material effect on the respective derivative fair values taking into consideration the default probability of both the counterparty and Group, the impact of the first time of default, the expected OTC derivative exposure, the loss given default of the counterparty and of Group and the specific characteristics of netting and collateral agreements in force.

Collaterals and derivatives exposure per counterparty simulate throughout the life of respective financial assets. Calculations performed depend largely on observable market data. Market quoted counterparty and Bank's CDS spreads are used in order to derive the respective probability of default, a market standard recovery rate is assumed for developed market counterparties, correlations between market data are considered and subsequently a series of simulations is performed to model the portfolio exposure over the life of the related instruments. In the absence of observable market data, the counterparty probability of default and loss given default are determined using the Group's internal models for credit rating and collateral valuation. BCVA model is validated from an independent division of the Group according to best practices. A breakdown of BCVA across counterparty sectors and credit quality (as defined for presentation purposes of the table " Loans by credit quality and IFRS 9 Stage") is given below:

Advances to customers measured at fair value through profit or loss measured at fair value through profit or loss includes earn out and contingent considerations for which the methodology followed is described below.

In relation to the valuation of the earn-out consideration (from the buyer to the Bank in the context of the disposal of the 80% of the equity shares of the former subsidiary) which is related to the estimated earnings before depreciation, tax, and interest (EBITDA) of Cepal Holdings for the next six years, the base scenario of the company's business plan was taken into consideration.

Based on this scenario (which is in line with the valuation of 20% of the Bank's investment in the company), the valuation of the earn-out consideration is zero.

In the context of the sale of Alpha Payment Services S.M.S.A. to Nexi S.p.A., the Bank reserves the right to repurchase in the fourth year after the completion of the transaction part of the shares that will correspond to a participation between 24% and 39% in the company for a fixed strike price.

According to the estimated figures of the company, the value of this option as of 30.6.2023 is zero.

The contingent consideration related to the sale of NPE portfolios is based on the estimated net recoveries of the underlying portfolio's under the base scenario of the Business Plan as agreed between the parties. The expected earn-out consideration, based on the above base case assumptions, have been further discounted to their present value based on their projected payment period.

b. Loans to customers measured at amortized cost

For credit risk disclosure purposes, the allowance for expected credit losses of loans measured at amortised cost also includes the fair value adjustment for the contractual balance of loans which were impaired at their acquisition or origination (POCI) since the Group, from credit risk perspective, monitors the respective adjustment as part of the allowance. These loans were recognized either in the context of acquisition of specific loans or companies (i.e., Emporiki Bank and Citibank's retail operations in Greece), or as a result of significant modification of the terms of the previous loan resulted to derecognition. Relevant adjustment has also been made at the carrying amount of loans before allowance for expected credit losses.

It is noted that the credit risk tables do not include the outstanding balances and allowance for expected credit losses of loans that have been classified as assets held for sale.

The total amount recognized by the Group to cover the credit risk arising from contracts with customers amounts to € 1,146,043 as of 30.6.2023 (31.12.2022: € 1,214,602), taking into account the expected credit risk losses of loans which are measured at amortized cost that amount to € 1,067,281 (31.12.2022: € 1,133,019), the expected credit risk losses of letters of guarantee, credit guarantees and undisbursed loan commitments that amount to € 39,700 (31.12.2022: € 40,783) and expected credit risk losses for receivables from customers that amount to € 39,062 (31.12.2022: € 40,800). The Group closely monitors the evolving energy crisis and the impact on inflation due to the Russia-Ukraine conflict as well as the rise in interest rates and assesses their impact on its business activity, financial position, and profitability. As the crisis evolves and the facts change, the Group may proceed to appropriate adjustments to its strategy, business plan and financing plan on a case-by-case basis and may also consider additional measures to limit the impact of the energy and inflationary crisis, if this is deemed necessary.

In the context of inflationary pressures and the increase in borrowing costs for households and businesses, as well as the general uncertainty that exists in the economic environment, the Group included in the ECL allowance on its balance sheet as at 30.6.2023 additional Post Model Adjustment (PMA) provisions for non-performing retail loans allocated to Stage 3 totaling to € 132.0 mn. (31.12.2022: € 168.2mn.).

The Group estimates allowance for expected credit losses based on the weighted probability of three alternative scenarios. More specifically, the Group makes forecasts for the possible evolution of macroeconomic variables that affect the level of allowance for expected credit losses of loan portfolios under a baseline and under two alternative macroeconomic scenarios (an upside and a downside one) and also assesses the cumulative probabilities associated with these scenarios.

The macroeconomic variables affecting the level of expected credit losses are the Gross Domestic product (hereinafter "GDP"), the unemployment rate, inflation, and forward-looking prices of residential and commercial real estates. Especially in Greece, the macroeconomic variables per year for the period 2023-2026, which affect both the estimation of the Probability of Default and the estimation of the Loss Given Default when calculating the expected credit loss as of 30.6.2023 are the following:

The baseline scenario is supported by a consistent economic description and constitutes the most likely scenario according to the current economic conditions and the Group's basic assessment of the course of the economy. The cumulative probabilities of the macroeconomic scenarios for the Greek economy indicate that the economy performs better or worse than forecasts of the baseline scenario and the alternative scenarios, i.e. the upside and downside scenario. For each one of the alternative scenarios, the allowance for expected credit losses is calculated and weighted against the probability of each scenario in order to calculate the weighted expected credit loss. The cumulative probability for the Bank assigned to the baseline scenario remained 60%, while cumulative probability assigned to the downside and upside scenario remained 20% for each of the scenario. For Cyprus, the cumulative probability assigned to the baseline scenario remained 70% and 15% for downside scenario and upside scenario. For Romania, the cumulative probability assigned remained 50% for baseline scenario, 40% for downside scenario and 10% for upside scenario.

Should the downside scenario be weighted with 100% probability, expected credit losses would have been higher by € 77.8mn. as of 30.6.2023 (31.12.2022: € 87.5 mn.).

In the event of a 100% probability of upside scenario expected credit losses would have been lower as of 30.6.2023 by € 79.0mn. (31.12.2022: € 85.8 mn.).

The following table provides more details around the impact per stage.

27. Capital Adequacy

The policy of the Group is to maintain strong capital ratios and capital buffers over requirements in order to secure that the business plan will be achieved and to ensure trust of depositors, shareholders, markets, and business partners. Share capital increases are conducted following resolutions of the General Meeting of Shareholders or the Board of Directors, in accordance with articles of incorporation or the relevant laws.

For the period that the Hellenic Financial Stability Fund (HFSF) participates in the Share Capital of the Bank, the purchase of treasury shares is not permitted without its consent, based on the relevant provisions of the Relationship Framework Agreement (RFA) signed between the Company and the HFSF.

The Capital Adequacy ratio compares the Group's regulatory capital with the risks that it undertakes (Risk Weighted Assets - RWAs). Regulatory capital includes Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital (share capital, reserves, minority interests), Additional Tier1 capital (hybrid securities) and Tier 2 capital (subordinated debt).

Alpha Bank S.A., as a systemic bank, and therefore its Parent company Alpha Services and Holdings S.A., is supervised by the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM) of the European Central Bank (ECB), to which reports are submitted every quarter. The supervision is conducted in accordance with the European Regulation 575/2013 (CRR) as amended, inter alia, by Regulation (EU) 876/2019 (CRR 2) and the relevant European Directive 2013/36 (CRD IV), as incorporated into the Greek Law through the Law 4261/2014 as amended, inter alia, by Directive (EU)2019/878 (CRD V) and incorporated by Law 4799/2021. For the calculation of capital adequacy ratio the above regulatory framework is followed. In addition:

  • Besides the 8% capital adequacy limit, there are applicable limits of 4.5% for CET 1 ratio and 6% for Tier 1 ratio, respectively.
  • The maintenance of capital buffers additional to the CET1 capital are required. In particular the Combined Buffer Requirement (CBR) consisting of:
    • o The Capital conservation buffer stands at 2.5%.
    • o the following capital buffers set by the Bank of Greece through its Executive Committee Acts:
      • countercyclical capital buffer, equal to "zero percent" (0%) for the H1 2023.
      • other Systemically Important Institutions (O-SII) buffer, which will gradually rise to "one percent" (1%) from 1.1.2019 to 1.1.2023. For 2023, the O-SII buffer stands at 1.00%.

These limits should be met on a consolidated basis.

The following table presents the capital adequacy ratios of the Group:

30.6.2023 31.12.2022
Common Equity Tier I Ratio 13.5% 13.2%
Tier I Ratio 14.7% 13.2%
Total Capital Adequacy Ratio* 17.8% 16.2%

The above capital ratios include period profits post a provision for dividend payout according to the dividend policy. Excluding the provision for dividend at H1 2023, capital ratios increase by c. 20bps and the Total Capital ratio would stand at 18.0%.

Taking into consideration the 2022 SREP decision, ECB notified Alpha Services and Holdings S.A., that for 2023 it is required to meet the minimum limit for consolidated Overall Capital Requirements (OCR), of at least 14.58% (OCR includes for Q2 2023 the CCB Capital Buffer of 2.5% the O-SII buffer of 1% and the CCyB of 0.08% which mainly derives from the contribution of subsidiaries).

The ΟCR consists of the minimum limit of the total Capital adequacy Ratio (8%), in accordance with art. 92(1) of the CRR, the additional regulatory requirements of Pillar2 (P2R) in accordance with article 16(2) (a) of the Council Regulation EU 1024/2013 (3%), as well as the combined buffers' requirements (e.g. CCB, OSII, CCyB), in accordance with Article 128 (6) of Directive 2013/36/EU. The minimum rate should be kept on an on-going basis, considering the CRR/CRD Transitional Provisions.

* Supervisory disclosures regarding capital adequacy and risk management in accordance with Regulation 575/2013 (Pillar III) will be published on the Bank's website.

Minimum requirements for own funds and eligible liabilities (MREL)

On 21 March 2023, Alpha Bank S.A. received a communication letter from the European Single Resolution Board including its decision for the minimum requirements for own funds and eligible liabilities (MREL). The requirements are based on the Recovery and Resolution Directive ("BRRD2"), which was incorporated into the Greek Law 4799/2021 on 18.5.2021. At the same time, by the same decision, the Resolution Authority defined the single point of entry (SPE) resolution strategy. According to the decision, from 1 January 2026 Alpha Bank S.A. is required to meet, on a consolidated basis, minimum MREL of 23.60% of the risk-weighted assets and 5.91% of the Leverage ratio. The letter also sets out the intermediate MREL targets to be met from 1 January 2023, i.e. 19.94% of the risk-weighted assets and 5.91% of the leverage ratio. The final MREL ratio, expressed as a percentage of risk-weighted assets, does not include the Combined Buffer Requirement (CBR). Furthermore, the Resolution Authority has decided that Alpha Bank S.A. is not subject to requirement for subordinated MREL. Minimum requirements for own funds and eligible liabilities (MREL), including the transition compliance period, are in line with the expectations of Alpha Bank S.A

As of 30 June 2023, Group's MREL ratio stood at 24.34%. The ratio includes the profit of the financial reporting period that ended on 30 June 2023 post a provision for dividend payout. Excluding the provision for dividend, the MREL ratio increases by c. 20 bps and stands at 24.54%. The final targeted MREL ratio is updated annually by the SRB.

Fair values of other assets classified as Held for sale are measured at each reporting period in accordance with the methods referred to in note 1.2.7 of the Group Annual Financial Statements for 2022, considering offers from the investors for the items included in the perimeter that is expected to be transferred in conjunction with Management decisions for the completion of the transactions. Fair vales in terms of fair value hierarchy are classified as Level 3, since they make use of data from market research, estimates and data which refer to financial assets of similar characteristics and therefore make use of significant nonobservable market input.

32. IFRS 17 adoption and restatement of financial statements

The new standard IFRS 17 was applied on 1.1.2023 retrospectively. The application of the new standard resulted in the following changes in the Group 's balance sheet:

  • − Liabilities from insurance contracts are no longer presented in caption "Provisions"
  • − Liabilities from insurance contracts that are measured in accordance with IFRS 17 are presented in the new caption "Liabilities from insurance contracts".
  • − Liabilities from insurance contracts that fall within the scope of IFRS 9 are included in caption "Due to customers". The liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
  • − Assets from reinsurance contracts are presented in the new caption "Reinsurance contract assets "
  • − Since all rights and obligations deriving from insurance contracts are recognized on a net basis, receivables from insurance contracts and deferred acquisition costs are no longer presented in "Other assets".

The following table presents the estimated impact on Balance Sheet from the transition to the new standard. Based on the table, the total positive impact on the Group 's equity as of 1.1.22 amounts to € 15.6 mn. (after tax) resulting from the change in measurement of insurance contracts, as well as from the (retrospective) reclassification of contracts not included within the scope of IFRS 17. The total negative impact on the Group 's equity as of 31.12.22, respectively, amounts to € 11.1mn. (after tax).

  • − Results from insurance contracts are no longer included in caption "Other income".
  • − For insurance contracts and reinsurance contracts included in scope of IFRS 17:
  • a) insurance revenue and insurance service expenses are presented separately in captions "insurance revenue" and "insurance expenses" respectively, whereas their total is presented in caption "Net Insurance income".
  • b) insurance finance income or expenses are separately presented in caption "Finance income/(expense) from insurance contracts ".
    • o For insurance contracts included in scope of IFRS 9, interest accreted based on the effective interest method is presented in caption "Interest expense and similar charges", whereas changes in the carrying amount of the liability due to the re estimation of expected cash flows are presented in caption "Gains less losses on financial transactions".

Furthermore the Group restated the presentation of the expenses related to credit cards transactions as well as expenses related to the issuance of credit cards from"General Administration expenses" to "Commission expenses"and items from "Other income" to "Gain less losses on financial transactions".

34. Strategic plan

Alpha Bank, during an Investors' Day event held in June 7th 2023, unveiled its 2023-2025 strategy, laying the foundations for creating value and empowering growth, by leveraging on the identity of its franchise, its distinctive positioning in highly specialized and profitable segments, its long-standing commitment to create shareholder value and its track record in delivering on its promises.

The Strategic Plan is focused on priority areas of enhancing profits, maintaining balance sheet resilience and capital generation and distribution, It builds upon successful implementation of transformation plan and plays to the unique strengths of Alpha Bank.

A resolute focus on improving profitability across all business units will elevate profits at the Group level, by growing earnings at an average annualized pace above 20% for the period up to 2025, Favorable dynamics around net interest income, further supported by macro tailwinds, will continue to drive revenues, while meticulous cost management will provide a buffer against inflationary pressures.

Clearly defined strategic pillars will drive profitability across the Group's business units:

  • a) Increase core revenues in retail banking, enhance productivity through automation and migrate core offering to digital channels, reducing Cost to Income ratio, aiming at RoCET1 of 23% by 2025
  • b) adapt offering to attract a wider customer base across private banking and other selected clients while investing in technology to modernize service model,
  • c) Reinforce position in wholesale lending and ensure adequate returns for capital while growing fees and continuing to refine operating model.
  • d) Improve profitability in International by accelerating lending momentum through digital channels, capitalizing on strengths in payments and wealth to grow fees, transform operations and increase productivity,
  • e) Continue to selectively grow lending book while maintaining strong levels of liquidity. The Bank intends to reach a Group NPE ratio of 4%, improving the coverage ratio to over 60% without impacting Cost of Risk and maintain a Loan-to-Deposit ratio below 80% across the duration of the plan,
  • f) Scale-up sustainable finance strategy to meet full market potential and deliver on firm ESG commitments. Targeting €3bn in sustainable disbursements over the next three years to commit to the NetZero Banking Alliance, aiming to align our portfolio with the Paris Objectives. Incorporate ESG criteria in remuneration and risk-management framework and fully integrate sustainable finance strategy across business and operating model.

In 2023-2025, the Bank will focus on the following three financial priorities:

Profitability

  • ‒ Significant business profitability improvement across Business units, and re-allocation of capital from NPA unit
  • ‒ Revenues increase on the back of strong NII performance, largely attributed to NII growth driven by volume expansion and favorable rates.
  • ‒ Cost management limiting inflation impact, and OpEx reduction through specific levers
  • ‒ Revenue's boost and costs reduction to improve the Group's cost-income ratio reaching 40% in 2025

Balance sheet

  • ‒ Structural NPE reduction (over €1bn) mainly through organic levers, lowering NPE ratio to c.4% and improving coverage to c.60%, while further de-escalating cost of risk
  • ‒ Diversified, granular and sticky deposit base (c.70% of insured deposits) growing at c.3% per year and shifting towards c.50% of term deposits

Capital generation and distribution

  • ‒ € 2.3bn of capital generation
  • ‒ Resulting fully loaded capital ratios significantly higher than management target of 13%

ACCOUNTING POLICIES APPLIED

1.1 Basis of presentation

The Company has prepared the condensed interim financial statements for the current period ended on 30.6.2023 in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as it has been adopted by the European Union. Interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31.12.2022.

The accounting policies applied by the Company in preparing the condensed interim financial statements are the same as those stated in the published financial statements for the year ended on 31.12.2022, taking also into account IFRS 17 and the amendments to standards which were issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), adopted by the European Union and applied on 1.1.2023, for which further analysis is provided in note 1.1.2.

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis. However, investment securities measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are measured at fair value.

-The interim financial statements are presented in Euro, rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise stated.

1.1.1 Going concern

The interim financial statements as at 30.6.2023 have been prepared based on the going concern basis. It is noted that since the activity of the Company is directly related to the activity of Alpha Bank that is its subsidiary, the assessment of the going concern principle of the Company is directly related to the going concern of the Bank and the Group. For the assessment of going concern assumption, the Board of Directors considered current economic developments and made estimates for the shaping, in the near future, of the economic environment in which it operates. In this context, the Board of Directors assessed the following areas which are considered important:

Developments in the macroeconomic environment

The growth momentum during the first quarter of 2023 reflects the resilience of the Greek economy in the face of adverse external developments, following the war in Ukraine, the energy crisis and inflationary pressures. According to the latest data from ELSTAT (June 2023) the real GDP in the first quarter of 2023 increased by 2.1% on an annual basis, at a rate twice that of the Eurozone (1%) and one of the ten highest among the countries of European Union (EU-27). Economic growth came primarily from private consumption, which rose 2.9% in the first quarter of the year, contributing 2.1 percentage points to the annual GDP growth rate.

Investment registered an annual increase of 8.2% in the first quarter of 2023, maintaining its momentum and contributing to the change in GDP by 1.1 percentage points (pp). Regarding the analysis of investments by category, investments in housing and transport equipment increased at a strong rate, by 48.4% and 42% respectively, while investments in other non-residential constructions increased by 8.1% and other investments by 4.4%. The contribution of net exports was also positive (0.9 p.p.), with the annual increase in exports, and mainly goods, significantly exceeding the increase in imports. Specifically, exports of goods increased more strongly (10.6%) than the corresponding imports (3.2%), while exports of services increased milder (6.2%) than imports (12.7%). Also, public consumption had a positive contribution of 0.3 percentage points, which increased by 1.4% on an annual basis in the first quarter of the year, while, on the contrary, inventories had a negative contribution (-2.3 p.p. incl. statistical differences).

The Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) increased by an average of 9.3% in 2022, primarily due to rising global energy prices - given that Greece is a net energy importer - supply chain disruptions and shortages in raw materials. In the first half of 2023, the growth rate of the index has slowed down, gradually to 2.8% in June from 7.3% in January.The annual average growth rate forecasts according to the European Commission (European Economic Forecast , Spring, May 2023), is 4.2% while according to the Ministry of Finance (Stability Programme, April 2023) and based on the latest estimates of the Bank of Greece (Monetary Policy, June 2023) ) is expected at 4.5% and 4.3% respectively.

GDP growth is also expected to slowdown in 2023 compared to 2022 due to the adverse effects of inflationary pressures on the purchasing power of European citizens and thus on private consumption and exports of services. The implementation of investments under the Recovery and Resilience Fund (€ 7 billion) and the Public Investment Program (€ 8.3 billion) and the strong rise in Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), however, are estimated to maintain the rate of change of GDP in positive ground, in 2023. The European Commission (European Economic Forecast, Spring, May 2023) and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD Economic Outlook, June 2023) predict GDP growth of

2.4% and 2.2% respectively for 2023, while the Ministry of Finance (Stability Program, April 2023) of 2.3%. Finally, according to the Bank of Greece's Monetary Policy Report (June 2023), the Greek economy is projected to grow at a rate of 2.2% in 2023.

The main uncertainties are as follows:

-Geopolitical developments and inflationary pressures: The continuation and outcome of the war in Ukraine can undoubtedly affect the European economies, since the conflict in the territories of the European continent, as well as the energy dependence on Russia led to a sharp increase in energy prices in last year. It is noted, however, that concerns about Europe's energy sufficiency have eased. Both the high filling rate of natural gas storage tanks in Europe and the relatively mild weather conditions in the winter months have contributed to this, as well as the initiatives taken at European level to reduce natural gas consumption.

-The sharp increase in interest rates in the last year and consequently the cost of borrowing for households and businesses, which might have delayed the implementation of investment plans.

-Furthermore, there are risks arising from the speed of absorption of the funds of the Recovery and Resilience fund and the implementation of the program, as well as possible delays in the implementation of reforms.

-Finally, as stated in the Monetary Policy Report of the Bank of Greece (June 2023), additional risks for the prospects of the Greek economy are: (a) the delay and/or reversal of the implementation of reforms, with a negative impact on the productivity and competitiveness of the Greek economy and (b) the appearance of a new generation of Non-Performing Loans (NPLs), due to the increased cost of borrowing and the effects of the energy crisis, following the phasing out of fiscal support measures for businesses and households.

It is noted, however, that the main future challenges for the course of public finances in Greece are exogenous and common to the EU-27 member countries.

In conclusion, despite the volatile economic environment, as defined, among others, by the continuation of the war, the maintenance of inflationary pressures and the sharp increase in interest rates by the main central banks, the Greek economy is expected to remain resilient, reaching an average GDP growth rate of 2.6% in 2023-2026, according to the Ministry of Finance (Stability Programme 2023).

Liquidity

Regarding the liquidity levels of the Group, it is noted that there was no adverse change in terms of the Banks' ability to draw liquidity from the Eurosystem Mechanisms and from money markets (with or without collateral) nor restrictions on the use of the Group's cash reserves as a result of the war between Russia and Ukraine. The Board of Directors of the European Central Bank decided on a series of increases in its intervention interest rates, from the second half of 2022 onwards, in order to ensure a timely return of inflation to the medium-term target of 2%. Additionally in October 2022 it decided to modify the terms of TLTRO III, with the aim of being compatible with the wider monetary policy normalization process, by strengthening the transmission of its relevant decisions to the interbank market and, by extension, to the real economy. This is expected to put downward pressure on inflation, helping to restore price stability over the medium term. The Bank made use of the TLTRO III program of the European Central Bank and ensured long-term liquidity. In February, March and June 2023, in the context of optimizing the Group's liquidity management, and having sufficient reserves, the Bank decided to prepay €8 billion in total of the European Central Bank's TLTRO-III program, following the relevant modification of its terms. In this context, the total financing from the European Central Bank on 30.6.2023 amounts to € 5 billion. The Bank, continuing to implement the strategy of achieving the MREL targets in a sustainable manner, while improving its financial profile and diversifying its funding sources, issued in October and December 2022 senior bonds of € 400 million and € 450 million with a term of three and four years and six months respectively. The second issuance replaced the December 2021 issuance. Also significant liquidity was drawn from the issuance of AT1 bond referred below in the capital adequacy section. Finally, in June 2023 the Bank proceeded with the issuance of a senior preferred bond of an amount of € 500 million with a six-year term. In addition, the European Central Bank, in its decisions in March, April and December 2020, accepted the securities of the Hellenic Republic as collateral for liquidity operations while deposits increased by € 1.2 billion. Term deposits increased by € 3.5 billion. As a result of the above, the liquidity ratios (liquidity coverage ratio and net stable funding ratio) exceed the supervisory limits that have been set. Moreover, considering the conditions that form the current economic environment, stress test exercises are carried out regularly (at least monthly) for liquidity purposes, in order to assess possible outflows (contractual or potential). The Group completes successfully the liquidity short term stress scenarios (idiosyncratic, systemic and combined), retaining a high liquidity buffer. As a result, based on the Group's plan as well on internal stress tests the Group has sufficient liquidity reserves to meet its needs.

Capital Adequacy

On 30.6.2023, the Common Equity Tier I of the Group stands at 13.5%, while the Total Capital Adequacy Ratio at 17.8% significantly increased and well above capital requirements, mainly due to the strong profitability of the six-month period and the successful completion into the first half of 2023 of the scheduled transactions according to the Business Plan. These levels are significantly higher than the levels set by the European Central Bank. The Bank in order to strengthen its capital proceeded on 4.3.2021 to the issuance of new Tier 2 bond amounting to € 500 million, with a 10.25-year maturity while, on 8.2.2023, Alpha Services and Holdings issued a perpetual Additional Tier I bond amounting to € 400 million. Taking into consideration the results of internal capital adequacy assessment process (ICAAP), the fact that Alpha Services and Holdings successfully concluded the EU-wide 2023 Stress Test, as well as the actions that aim in the creation of internal capital through profitability, it is estimated that for the next 12 months the Total Capital Adequacy Ratio and the MREL ratio will remain higher than the required minimum levels.

Updated Strategic Plan up to 2025

According to the updated Strategic Plan for the period 2023-2025, the Group's Strategy is based on the following 6 pillars that will lead to an increase in the profitability of the Group as a whole:

  • Enhancing digital services and focusing on high value activities in retail banking
  • Reshaping the service model to increase market share in the Wealth Management sector
  • Maintaining of the leadership position in Wholesale Banking
  • Improving the profitability performance of the Group's international activities
  • Maintaining balance sheet resilience
  • Full adoption and utilization of ESG criteria as a catalyst for value creation

In the years 2023-2025, the Bank will focus on the following three financial priorities:

  • d) Increase in profitability
  • Significant improvement in profitability in all Business Units, and reallocation of funds due to further reduction of Non-Performing Exposures
  • Revenue boost supported by a strong performance in Net Interest Income:
  • Disciplined cost management, thereby limiting the impact of inflationary pressures and reducing operating expenses through specific actions
  • Improvement of the Group's Cost-to-Income Ratio, as a result of increasing revenues and reducing costs.
  • e) Balance sheet resilience
  • Diversified and resilient balance sheet, with liquid assets
  • Reduction (above €1 billion) of non-performing exposures, mainly through organic deleveraging, further reduction of the NPE ratio and improvement of the NPE coverage ratio as well as further de-escalation of the Credit Risk Cost
  • Broad, well-diversified and resilient deposit base
  • f) Creation and distribution of capital
  • Capital creation due to significant returns within 3 years
  • Achieve a higher Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio with full implementation of Basel III (FL CET1)
  • Resumption of dividend payment from 2023 earnings, subject to regulatory approval

Based on the above and taking into account:

  • the Group's capital adequacy ratio that is significantly higher than the required minimum levels, the MREL ratio that is higher than the mid-level, as well as the specific actions the Bank has planned to further strengthen the ratios,
  • the satisfactory liquidity of the Group,
  • the actions included in the update strategic plan up to 2025,
  • the fact that any impact on the Group's financial result from inflation and increase in base rates is expected to be positive as it is estimated that the higher performance of operating income, as a result of the balance sheet structure, will exceed the expected increases in operating expenses,
  • the expected positive growth rate of the Greek Economy despite the adverse effects caused by inflationary pressures mainly in terms of energy prices and additionally the implementation of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan, within the framework of the EU's "Next Generation EU" program, through which Greece is expected to receive a total of €30.5 billion by 2026,
  • that even though the prolonged duration as well as the form that the Russia and Ukraine war conflict will possibly take may adversely affect the macroeconomic environment, the Group has limited exposure to Russian and Ukrainian economy as well as significant buffers of capital adequacy and liquidity,
  • that the Group confirms its stability and resistance to external negative market factors based on:
    • the Bank's broad and well-diversified deposit base with private deposits accounting for 70% of its total deposits
    • the absence of concentrations in deposits as well as the existence of low average balances,
    • the supervisory liquidity ratios that stand on a consistent basis above the supervisory requirements. In particular, the liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) and the net stable funding ratio (NSFR) significantly increased and reached 176% and 127% respectively, mainly due to the increase of deposits, the repayment of TLTRO and the senior preferred issuance,
    • the maintenance of an investment portfolio, 86% of which consists of high-quality liquid assets and which, after the relevant interest rate risk hedges, presents a low repricing cycle,
    • the balanced interest rate risk profile on its banking book, responding successfully to interest rate shock scenarios (i.e. Economic Value of Equity/TIER I capital), with a balance sheet composition of predominantly floating rate loans against a low concentration, diversified deposit base,
    • as mentioned above, its strong capital adequacy and satisfactory liquidity,

the Board of Directors estimates that, at least for the next 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements, the conditions for the application of the going concern principle for the preparation of its financial statements are met.

1.1.2 Adoption of new standards and of amendments to standards

The following are the new standards and the amendments to standards applied from 1.1.2023:

International Financial Reporting Standard 17 "Insurance Contracts" and Amendment to International Financial Reporting Standard 17 "Insurance Contracts" (Regulation 2021/2036/19.11.2021).

On 18.5.2017 the International Accounting Standards Board issued IFRS 17 which replaces IFRS 4 "Insurance Contracts". In contrast to IFRS 4, the new standard introduces a consistent methodology for the measurement of insurance contracts. The key principles in IFRS 17 are the following:

An entity:

  • identifies as insurance contracts those contracts under which the entity accepts significant insurance risk from another party (the policyholder) by agreeing to compensate the policyholder if a specified uncertain future event adversely affects the policyholder;
  • separates specified embedded derivatives, distinct investment components and distinct performance obligations from the insurance contracts;
  • divides the contracts into groups that it will recognise and measure;
  • recognises and measures groups of insurance contracts at:
    • i. a risk-adjusted present value of the future cash flows (the fulfilment cash flows) that incorporates all of the available information about the fulfilment cash flows in a way that is consistent with observable market information; and ii. an amount representing the unearned profit in the group of contracts (the contractual service margin);
  • recognises the profit from a group of insurance contracts over the period the entity provides insurance cover, and as the entity is released from risk. If a group of contracts is or becomes loss-making, an entity recognises the loss immediately;
  • presents separately insurance revenue, insurance service expenses and insurance finance income or expenses; and

• discloses information to enable users of financial statements to assess the effect that contracts within the scope of IFRS 17 have on the financial position, financial performance and cash flows of an entity.

On 25.6.2020 the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to IFRS 17 which aimed to ease implementation of the standard and make it easier for entities to explain their financial performance. Additionally, with the amendment the effective date of the standard was postponed to 1.1.2023.

Finally, it is noted that under the Regulation of the European Union that adopted above standard, an entity may choose not to apply paragraph 22 of the standard, in accordance with which an entity shall not include contracts issued more than one year

apart in the same group, to:

(a) groups of insurance contracts with direct participation features and groups of investment contracts with discretionary participation features and with cash flows that affect or are affected by cash flows to policyholders of other contracts; (b) groups of insurance contracts that are managed across generations of contracts and that meet the conditions laid down in Article 77b of Directive 2009/138/EC and have been approved by supervisory authorities for the application of the matching adjustment.

IFRS 17 does not apply to the financial statements of the Company.

‣ Amendment to International Financial reporting Standard 17: "Insurance Contracts": Initial Application of IFRS 17 and IFRS 9 – Comparative information (Regulation 2022/1491/8.9.2022).

On 9.12.2021 the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to IFRS 17 according to which entities are permitted on initial application of IFRS 17 to classify financial assets in the comparative period in a way that aligns with how the entity would classify them on IFRS 9 transition. The amendment specifies how this option is applied depending on whether the entity applies IFRS 9 for the first time at the same time as IFRS 17 or whether it has already applied it in a previous period.

The above amendment does not apply to the financial statements of the Company.

‣ Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements": Disclosure of accounting policies (Regulation 2022/357/2.3.2022).

On 12.2.2021 the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to IAS 1 with which it clarified that:

  • An entity shall disclose material accounting policy information. Accounting policy information is material if, when considered together with other information included in an entity's financial statements, it can reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of financial statements make.
  • Accounting policy information that relates to immaterial transactions is immaterial and need not be disclosed. Accounting policy information may nevertheless be material because of the nature of the related transactions even if the amounts are immaterial. However, not all accounting policy information relating to material transactions and other events is itself material.
  • Accounting policy information is material if users of an entity's financial statements would need it to understand other material information in the financial statements.
  • Accounting policy information that focuses on how an entity has applied an accounting policy is more useful to users of financial statements than standardized information or information that only summarizes the requirements of IFRSs.
  • If an entity discloses immaterial accounting policy information, such information shall not obscure material accounting policy information.

The adoption of the above amendment had no impact on the financial statements of the Company.

‣ Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 8 "Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors": Definition of accounting estimates (Regulation 2022/357/2.3.2022).

On 12.2.2021 the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to IAS 8 with which:

  • Defined accounting estimates as monetary amounts in financial statements that are subject to measurement uncertainty.
  • Clarified that an accounting policy may require items in financial statements to be measured in a way that involves measurement uncertainty. In such a case, an entity develops an accounting estimate. Developing accounting estimates involves the use of judgements and assumptions.
  • An entity uses measurement techniques and inputs to develop an accounting estimate.

  • An entity may need to change an accounting estimate. By its nature, a change in an accounting estimate does not relate to prior periods and is not the correction of an error. A change in an input or a change in a measurement technique are changes in accounting estimates unless they result from the correction of prior period errors. The adoption of the above amendment had no impact on the financial statements of the Company.

‣ Amendment to International Accounting Standard 12 "Income Taxes": Deferred tax related to assets and liabilities arising from a single transaction (Regulation 2022/1392/11.8.2022)

On 7.5.2021 the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to IAS 12 with which it narrowed the scope of the recognition exception according to which, in specific circumstances, entities are exempt from recognising deferred tax when they recognise assets or liabilities for the first time. The amendment clarifies that the exception no longer applies to transactions that, on initial recognition, give rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences. The adoption of the above amendment had no impact on the financial statements of the Company.

In addition, the International Accounting Standards Board has issued the following standards and amendments to standards which have not yet been adopted by the European Union and which have not been early applied by the Company.

‣ Amendment to International Financial Reporting Standard 10 "Consolidated Financial Statements" and to International Accounting Standard 28 "Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures": Sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture.

Effective date: To be determined.

‣ International Financial Reporting Standard 14 "Regulatory deferral accounts"

Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2016

The above standard does not apply to the financial statements of the Company.

‣ Amendment to International Financial Reporting Standard 16 "Leases": Lease liability in a sale and leaseback Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2024

The Company is examining the impact from the adoption of the above amendment on its financial statements.

‣ Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements": Classification of liabilities as current or non-current

Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2024

The above amendment will have no impact on the financial statements of the Company since in its balance sheet liabilities are not classified as current and non-current.

‣ Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements": Non-current liabilities with covenants

Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2024

The above amendment will have no impact on the financial statements of the Company since in its balance sheet liabilities are not classified as current and non-current.

‣ Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 7 "Statement of Cash Flows" and Amendment to the International Financial Reporting Standards 7 "Financial Instruments: Disclosures": Supplier Finance Arrangements Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2024

On 25.5.2023, the International Accounting Standards Board amended IAS 7 and IFRS 7 for the purpose of providing disclosures regarding supplier finance arrangements. These are agreements that companies enter into with third party finance providers, who undertake to repay amounts the entities owe their suppliers. Then the entity will have to repay the third-party finance provider based on the terms of the agreement between them. The amendment of the IAS 7 required the provision of information regarding the terms of the agreements in question, the carrying amount of the relevant liability on the balance sheet, the non-cash changes in the liability balances, the amounts with which third party finance providers have already repaid the suppliers and the range of payment due dates Also, IFRS 7 was amended to include access to such agreements with third finance providers in the liquidity risk disclosures.

The Company is examining the impact from the adoption of the above amendments on its financial statements. ‣ Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 12 "Income Taxes": International Tax Reform – Pillar Two Model Rules

Effective immediately and for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2023

On 23.5.2023, the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to the IAS. 12 in order to provide guidance regarding the treatment of the provisions imposed through the Pillar Two Model Rules of the International Tax Reform. In particular, according to the amendment, an entity:

  • Shall neither recognize nor disclose information regarding deferred tax assets and liabilities arising from Pillar Two income tax.

  • It shall disclose that it has applied above exception.

-It shall disclose separately its current tax expense (income) related to Pillar Two income taxes.

-In periods in which Pillar Two legislation has been enacted (or substantially enacted) but not yet in effect, it shall disclose known or reasonably estimable information that help users of financial statements understand its exposure to Pillar Two income taxes.

The Company is examining the impact from the adoption of the above amendment on its financial statements.

Further analysis regarding the above standards that were issued before the publication date of the annual financial statements of 31.12.2022 is provided in note 1.1.2 of the annual financial statements as at 31.12.2022.

1.2 Significant accounting judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty

Significant accounting judgments

The Company, in the context of applying accounting policies, makes judgments and assessments which have a significant impact on the amounts recognized in the financial statements. Those judgements relate to the following:

Income Tax (note 16)

The recognition of assets and liabilities for current and deferred tax is affected, inter alia, by the interpretation of the applicable tax legislation, the practical implementation of the relevant legislation and the settlement of disputes that might exist with tax authorities. When assessing the tax treatment of all significant transactions, the Company takes into account and evaluates all available data (Circulars of the Ministry of Finance, case law, administrative practices, etc.) and / or opinions received from internal and external legal advisers. Future tax audits and changes in tax legislation may result in the adjustment of the amount of assets and liabilities for current and deferred tax and in tax payments other than those recognized in the financial statements of the Company.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

Key sources of estimation uncertainty used by the Company in the context of applying its accounting principles and relating to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period are presented below. Final amounts in the next periods may be significantly different from those recognised in these financial statements.

Impairment losses on investments in subsidiaries and on non - financial assets

The Company, at each reporting date, assesses for impairment its intangible assets and its investments in subsidiaries, and at least on an annual basis property, plant and equipment. Management estimates the recoverable amount of the assets, i.e. the higher between the fair value less costs to sell and value in use by performing an impairment exercise, which includes inputs and assumptions that are inherently uncertain. In cases where the sale of such items is imminent, the fair value derives from the estimated price of the transaction considering any other element that could impact the recoverable amount upon the completion of the transaction.

Revenue recognized from variable consideration in contracts with customers (note 3)

The Company under the contract of distribution of insurance products is entitled to a performance bonus on the achievement of a specified sales target in the future. As a result, this amount represents a variable consideration which, however, according to the Company's assessment, is not considered constrained since the successful achievement of the target is highly dependent on factors that are within its influence. Revenue is recognized as sales occur since it has been assessed that the best method for measuring progress towards satisfaction of the performance obligation is the appraisal of sales achieved. At the end of each reporting period, the Company updates its method for measuring progress of performance obligation, as well as its assessment of whether the estimate of variable consideration is not constrained.

The estimates and judgments applied by the Company in making decisions and in preparing the financial statements are based on historical information and assumptions which at present are considered appropriate. The estimates and judgments are reviewed at each reporting period in order to take into account current conditions, and the effect of any changes is recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised.

  • Balance Sheet resilience

  • Capital generation and distribution
    • ‒ € 2.3bn of capital generation on the back of strong returns and DTAs usage over 3 years

‒ Achieve a higher Common Equity Tier 1 ratio with full implementation of Basel III (FL CET1) against management's ` target of 13%.

As described in the accounting policies section, the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as adopted by the European Union, in accordance with Regulation 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union on 19 July 2002.

B. Normalized results after income tax

Normalization of profits includes a set of non-recurring adjustments to the reported results for items which may be related to the transformation performed by the Group or may not be related to the normal course of business operations or are non-recurring in nature and distort the reported earnings of the business.

The purpose of normalization is to eliminate such one-off results and provide historical information that enables reliable comparisons and forecasting.

The main areas of adjustments to the accounting results in order to derive the normalized results are mentioned below:

    1. Transformation related events
    2. a. Transformation Costs and related Expenses
    3. b. Expenses and Gains/Losses due to Non Core Assets' Divestiture
    4. c. Expenses/Gains/Losses as a result of NPE/NPA exposures transactions'
    1. Other non recurring related events
    2. a. Expenses/Losses due to non anticipated operational risk
    3. b. Expenses/Losses due to non anticipated legal disputes
    4. c. Expenses/Gains/Losses due to short term effect of non anticipated and extraordinary events with significant economic impact
    5. d. Non recurring human resources/social security related benefits/expenses
    6. e. Impairment expenses related to owned used assets and property obtained from auctions and other property held for sale
    7. f. Initial (one off) impact from the adoption of new or amended IFRS
    8. g. Tax related one off expenses and gains/losses
    1. Income Taxes Applied on the aforementioned transactions.

The main difference between the new normalized results policy compared to the old one, is that under the old practice, the entire captions "gains less losses on financial transactions" and "gains/(losses) on derecognition of financial assets measured at amortised cost" were excluded from the normalized results by default.
