Credit quality - Consumer loans

Challenging debt collection, forward flow agreement reduces downside risk

Coverage1 and loan loss ratio2 Comments

  • The implementation of Debt register has increased NPL throughout 2019 resulting in higher loss in Q4
  • We expect the Debt Register to continue producing an increase in NPL for the short term, but in turn, we expect it to have a positive impact on losses in the long-term
  • Easybank's forward- flow agreement reduces downside risk as nonperforming loans are on an ongoing basis sold to Kredinor to a predefined price. Option to extend the forward flow agreement with Kredinor throughout 2023 with same conditions as the initial agreement from July 2017
  • IFRS9 was implemented January 1st 2020

Loans past due

IFRS9 implementation

  • The bank has during 2019 worked on the implementation of the accounting standard IFRS 9, which will be implemented as of January 1 st 2020.
  • The transition will result in increased loan loss provisions of MNOK 128. The equity impact will be MNOK 103,7, corresponding to a CET1 impact of 3,9% when fully implemented.
  • The bank will gradually phase in the effect on regulatory core equity using the transition rules, which allows for a 30% impact in 2020, 50% impact in 2021, 75% impact in 2022, and 100% impact effective January 1st 2023
