Funding Structure

Aim to diversify channels and optimise cost

  • % of Retail funding on Total Funding further increased as a result of the newly introduced 3-, 4- and 5-yr maturities for Rendimax
  • In order to diversify its funding channels, the Group intends to raise funds in the debt capital markets, through ECB funding and other centralised (i.e. ABACO) or interbank channels, and also through the securitisation of eligible assets or the issuance of other debtinstruments
  • The establishment of the EMTN Programme (following the successful Senior issue) represents an important step in this direction
