Interim Management Report

As at 30 June 2016, Banco Popular Portugal, S.A., reported shareholders' equity of 772,189 thousand euros on an individual basis (773,307 thousand euros on a consolidated basis after the integration of Popular Factoring, S.A.) - including the capital increase of 37 million euros to 513 million euros - managed over 10.5 billion euros of total assets, including customer funds in the amount of 5.7 billion euros. At the end of the first half of 2016, Banco Popular's net assets exceeded 9.5 billion euros both on an individual and on a consolidated basis. In this period, net profit on an individual basis amounted to 9.8 million euros and on a consolidated basis it exceeded 10.9 million euros.

The bank's activity was supported by a network of 165 branches and a team of 1,159 staff.

Banco Popular Portugal (Bank) offers a full range of products and services, together with the following companies that are also related with Banco Popular Español (BPE), the group to which it belongs:

  • Popular Gestão de Activos, S.A., wholly owned by BPE, is a Fund Management Company that manages, among others, the securities and real estate investment funds commercialised by Banco Popular Portugal;

  • Eurovida - Companhia de Seguros de Vida, S.A., is an insurance company that provides life and capitalisation insurance, and is 84.1% held by BPE and 15.9% held by Banco Popular Portugal;

  • Popular Seguros - Companhia de Seguros, S.A., is wholly owned by Eurovida, and trades in non-life insurance products.

  • Popular Factoring S.A. – On 31 December 2015, Popular Factoring, S.A., handed the Bank of Portugal a merger project with Banco Popular Portugal, S.A. The planned acquisition of the Qualifying Holding, owned by Banco Popular Español, S.A. (sole shareholder of Banco Popular Portugal, S.A.), took place in April 2016, following the approval of the Bank of Portugal, by means of a share capital increase of Banco Popular Portugal, S.A., fully subscribed by its sole shareholder, Banco Popular Español, S.A., through contributions in kind substantiated by the Qualifying Holding.

As at 30 June 2016, the Bank fully owned Popular Factoring, S.A., after acquiring the qualifying holding from Banco Popular Español, S.A., (which amounted to 99.83%) and compulsorily purchasing the remaining shares.

Popular Factoring, S.A. (henceforth 'consolidated company') is presented in the Bank's consolidated accounts under the full consolidation method.

Macroeconomic scenario

According to Statistics Portugal, gross domestic product (GDP) grew by 0.9% between January and March 2016, when compared with the same period last year. This year-on-year growth was lower than in the previous quarter (1.3% growth) due to a slowdown in exports of goods and services and a lower contribution of domestic demand via the slowdown in investment. Net external demand contributed negatively to the year-on-year GDP change, which was coupled with a deceleration of imports of goods and services that together contributed to reduce the openness of the economy.

The several components of domestic demand behaved differently. Private consumption increased by 2.9% year on year mostly due to the purchase of durable goods. It was also boosted by the increase of disposable income and the demand of consumer loans, thus favourably contributing to the total amount. Conversely, regarding the investment component (-0.6% year on year) there was a decrease in gross fixed capital formation (GFCF) by -2.2% mostly associated with the construction sector but also extended to machinery, equipment, and transports.

The year-on-year growth trend of exports slowed down in the first quarter of 2016 (2.2% after 2.8% in the previous quarter), reflecting the deceleration of both exports of goods and services. Tourism was the exception since it increased substantially in the first quarter.

In the first quarter of 2016, the year-on-year growth trend of imports, mostly of goods, decelerated (4.6% compared with 5.3% in the same period last year).

Regarding the unemployment rate, according to Statistics Portugal it eased off to 12.4% in March 2016, with a downward trend both when compared with the same period last year and on a monthly basis. Inflation levels remained low with a year-on-year change in the harmonized index of consumer prices by 0.4% at the end of the first quarter of 2016.

Portuguese GDP growth in the first quarter was lower than that of the Euro Zone, whose economy grew by 1.7% when compared with the same period last year. However, in the previous quarters and over the year, the recovery rhythm of the economic activity has been similar to the Euro Zone average.

The projections of the Bank of Portugal point to a continuous gradual economic recovery process throughout the year. After a 1.5% GDP growth in 2015, a slight deceleration to 1.3% is expected in 2016, followed by 1.6% and 1.5% increases (revised downwards) for 2017 and

2018 respectively. Exports and investment are expected to post more robust growth in the years after 2016, given that both domestic demand and private and public consumption will have a slower rhythm when compared with 2016, which is compatible with the deleveraging of both private economic agents and the State. The prevalence of historically low interest rates and the monetary policy in terms of the Euro Zone, together with the existence of positive domestic primary balances, the need to achieve the goals defined for public finances, and lastly the growth of international trade and of the main economies whose demand is targeted at the Portuguese economy will be important factors for the confirmation of these projections and the recovery.

The projected growth for the Portuguese economy is, however, compatible with a progressive reduction in the unemployment rate and the inflation rate is expected to have an upward trend until 2018.

Commercial strategy

In the first half of 2016, Banco Popular strengthened its strategic positioning in the corporate segment, which resulted in an increased market share. This growth in the corporate market was coupled with the strengthening of the Bank's positioning regarding private customers, with the development of several initiatives and solutions that have contributed to approximate the Bank and its customers.

Regarding the private customer segment, there was an increase of around 12.8 thousand new customers in the first half of 2016. This growth, in line with 2015, has mostly resulted from the excellent response of the market to the Bank's offer in terms of residential mortgage loans, as well as the member-get-member strategy or via corporate customers.

In the scope of partnerships, we would like to highlight the launch of a new car loan together with Cofidis, the agreement signed with Remax/Melon named 'Casa de Sonho' (Dream House), and the agreement signed with DECO that offers an exclusive residential mortgage loan to DECO members (Banco Popular's home loan was considered the right choice for consumers by DECO). By promoting several initiatives, we have also strengthened our relationship with Médis and TAP, namely through the Victoria loyalty programme.

In the Corporate segment, the market further recognized Banco Popular has a SME-targeted bank, which allowed the Bank to raise 4.1 thousand new customers. In spite of the fierce competition and the still slight recovery of the national economy, Banco Popular has managed to increase the volume of loans granted, with a corresponding increase in terms of market share and customer loyalty.

Customer care, operational swiftness, and diversified offer are still key factors for the high satisfaction levels that Corporate customers feel towards Banco Popular. Banco Popular's strategy will maintain the transversal support to every sector in the economy and thus will

8

keep on providing almost every financing arrangement that a company or a sole trader may need in their activity. Accordingly, credit growth exceeded 336.5 million euros in the first half of 2016.

Aware of the need to provide our customers with the best solutions and the best possible experience, we have implemented several improvements in the digital channels, which guarantee better usability, greater offer, and more information, always with added security. Also concerning digital channels, we would like to highlight Banco Popular's App, which is increasingly being downloaded (both iOS and Android versions), and on which Banco Popular has been focusing its attention, not only by including more and more useful information, but also continuously improving its functionalities.

In terms of Brand and Communication, Banco Popular has maintained the strategy initiated in 2015 based on an always on approach and an integrated 360º campaign, trying to be present in the main media and conveying values that characterize its relationship with its customers: Proximity, Flexibility, and Swiftness.

However, a vital aspect continues to be carrying out several sectoral communication initiatives, focusing on important topics in the areas of Tourism, Agriculture, and Industry, trying to obtain from some of the main business people that operate in these sectors answers or solutions to the many challenges that our economy faces.

The proximity to the corporate world and its customers has led Banco Popular to maintain its marketing strategy, participating in important national trade fairs and conferences, and to sponsor various programmes, sharing its market experience as an Iberian Bank that already counts on 90 years in the market.

Income and profitability

The income statement is summarised in Table 1 with reference to the first half of 2016 and the same period in 2015, pursuant to regulations issued by the Bank of Portugal, namely as regards the international accounting standards, including the restatement of 2015 individual accounts. Table 1a also shows the consolidated income statement for the first half of 2016 resulting from the full acquisition of Popular Factoring, S.A., after having handed the merger project to the Bank of Portugal at the end of 2015 with a view to integrate the factoring activity in the Bank.

Net interest income

In the first half of 2016, net interest income without loan fees and commissions stood at 58.7 million euros, 1,744 thousand euros less, or -2.9%, when compared with the same period in 2015. This result was derived mostly from a drop by over 11% in interest and similar income and the decrease by over 22% in interest and similar charges. The Bank maintained its policy of reducing the cost of its liabilities initiated in prior years, which resulted in savings of 10.2 million euros in interest and similar charges. This decrease was divided into around 10.4 million euros due to the favourable price effect and around 0.2 million euros due to unfavourable volume and maturity effects.

As far as total investment is concerned, there was a decrease by almost 12 million euros in terms of interest and similar income, more than 10.2 million of which due to loans granted and 2.6 million due to the decrease in the financial asset portfolio.

The volume and maturity effects of investments contributed positively with around 5.4 million euros to net interest income, which was however insufficient to offset the strong unfavourable price effect in the amount of 17.4 million euros, of which 16.7 million euros are due to loans granted (see Table 2).

The necessary combination of the two components of net interest income confirms however the careful management of interest rates in a historically unfavourable scenario.

Regarding average balances and rates, and according to Table 3, average assets at the end of the first half of 2016 were supported by customer funds (around 55%) and deposits from banks (around 34%). Loans and advances to customers is still the main component of assets, representing around 71% of total average assets. In the first half of 2016, compared with the same period last year, there was an important and balanced increase, on average, both of loans granted and of customer funds by around 445 million euros.

Taking into consideration the evolution of the average interest rates of loans and deposits, we would like to stress that average assets stood at 8.7 Billion euros, with an overall profitability of 2.19%, which, when compared with the average cost of total resources allocated to the financing of assets (0.83%), has enabled an annual net interest income of 1.36%. However, we have to highlight the decrease by 13 basis points in net interest income when compared with the same period last year.

The policy of reducing the cost of liabilities, already implemented since mid-2014, has led this past year to a 51 basis points reduction in the annual average rate of customer funds, which stood at 0.89% at the end of the first half of the year, which compares with 1.40% in the same period last year (Table 3a). On the other hand, the average annual rate of loans granted dropped by 54 basis points, from 2.90% to 2.36%. Due to this combined effect, customer spread decreased by 3 basis points to 1.47%.

Individual net interest income stood at 66.5 million euros at the end of the first half of 2016, which represents a -1.6% change when compared with the same period last year, i.e., around 1 million euros less. This rate of change was less negative due to the year-on-year increase by around 695 thousand euros in fees and commissions associated with the loans granted. On a consolidated basis, we would like to highlight the positive effect the merger with Popular Factoring had on net interest income by around 2,908 thousand euros, which allowed the consolidated net interest income to stand at 69.4 million euros at the end of the first half of 2016.

Banking income

In 2016, net fees and commissions charged to customers for the sale of products and services totalled 18.5 million euros, which corresponds to an increase by 3% when compared with the same period last year, i.e. around 531 thousand euros.

Complementing that information, Table 4 shows the main items that have contributed to the change in net fees and commissions in the past year. We would like to highlight the positive contribution of fees and commissions related with insurance brokerage (+53.3%), structuring financial operations (+34.5%), account management (+13.6%), and other net fees and commissions (+39.1%). The negative performance of some items, namely the decrease by 4.3% in fees related with collection and payment handling, -7.9% in terms of asset management fees, and -33.4% in fees related with guarantees and sureties, has contributed to weaken overall growth.

Regarding the remaining items of the banking product, we would like to highlight the significant increase by almost 18 million euros in terms of financial transactions, due to the timely sale of some financial assets in the portfolio with a view to realize gains in a market context of relevant losses in the profitability levels of certain asset segments.

Half Year 2016

The item Other operating results had a negative performance of over 54 million euros, which is explained by the sale in the first half of 2015 of the business unit in charge of managing real estate assets, which allowed the Bank to realize capital gains of over 48.6 million euros at the time. This fact explains the decrease in banking product by over 42.8 million euros (- 32.1%), which stood at around 90.4 million euros at the end of the first half of 2016 on an individual basis. On a consolidated basis, however, we would like to highlight the increase by 2.2 million euros when compared with individual figures due to the aforementioned merger with the factoring activity.

Operating income

In the first half of 2016, the Bank maintained the measures that have been implemented in previous years regarding its cost policy. As at 30 June 2016, operating expenses totalled 52.5 million euros on a consolidated basis and 51.7 million euros on an individual basis, which represents a decrease by over 4 million euros, i.e., -7,4% when compared with the same period last year.

From Table 5, we can see that personnel expenses on an individual basis amounted to 24.8 million euros, which corresponds to a decrease by 17.1%, when compared with the same period last year. This decrease is due to the aforementioned sale of the business unit in charge of managing real estate assets and credit exposures of customers associated with the real estate sector.

Administrative overheads totalled around 25.7 million euros on a consolidated basis and 25.5 million euros on an individual basis, which corresponds to a 4.6% increase, or around 1.1 million euros, when compared with the same period last year. Since cost control is visible in every item, this increase is due only to the costs associated with the management of real estate assets and credit exposures of costumers associated with the real estate sector that were not entirely offset by the remaining savings.

In terms of allocations for depreciation of fixed assets we have witnessed a positive performance (-134 thousand euros, or -9.2%) to around 1.3 million euros.

The weight of personnel expenses in operating costs stood at 48%, which compares with 55% at the end of the first half of 2015. In the first half of 2016, operating income amounted to 38.8 million euros, i.e. around 49.9% less than in the same period last year. This was mostly due to the negative performance of other operating results, where, in the first half of 2015, there were capital gains from the sale of the aforementioned business unit (around 48.6 million euros).

Net Income

Net income for the first half of 2016 stood at around 9.8 million euros, which compares with 32 million euros in the same period last year. This unfavourable performance was mostly due to the item Other operating results, because of the aforementioned capital gains in the first half of 2015, and occurred in spite of the positive performance of other items, namely fees and commissions, financial transaction results, personnel costs, and provisions.

Investments and assets

Total assets

As at 30 June 2016, Banco Popular's net assets amounted to around 9,569 million euros, 1,384 million euros more than in the same period last year, which corresponds to an increase by 16.9%.

Adjustments made to the size of the financial asset portfolio, the increase of customer loans and the decrease of funding from central banks as a counterpart of the funding from the parent company, and the inherent management of resources have contributed to this evolution.

Banco Popular also manages other customer funds applied in investment, savings and retirement instruments, which amounted to 934 million euros at the end of the first half of 2016, representing a 4.9% decrease when compared with the same period last year, mostly due to investment funds.

Therefore, total assets managed by the Bank amounted to 10,503 million euros at the end of the first half of 2016, which represents a 14.6% increase when compared with the same period last year.

Customer funds

As at 30 June 2016, the total amount of on- and off-balance sheet customer funds amounted to 5,757 million euros, 11.6% more when compared with the previous year. Table 6 shows the performance of total customer funds in the first halves of 2016 and 2015.

On-balance sheet funds, mostly via deposits from customers, totalled approximately 4,823 million euros, which corresponds to an increase by 15.5% when compared with the same period last year, i.e. an overall growth that exceeded 646 million euros both in terms of demand accounts and time deposits.

Demand accounts posted significant growth of over 406 million euros, or almost 40%, rising from 1,028 million euros to 1,434 million euros, while time deposits grew by 8%, i.e., around 250 million euros.

Off-balance sheet funds - which include investment fund applications, retirement plans, funds raised through investment insurance products, and assets managed through private banking - decreased by 4.9%, dropping from around 982 million euros at the end of the first half of 2015 to around 934 million euros as at 30 June 2016. The performance of this component was due to a decrease in investment and capitalization insurance and investment funds by over 63 million euros since portfolio management grew by 10.3%.

As at 30 June 2016, Banco Popular Portugal was the depositary of 12 investment funds managed by Popular Gestão de Activos, whose total portfolio amounted then to over 197 million euros. Table 7 shows the assets contained in each of the investment funds managed with reference to the end of the first halves of 2016 and 2015.

Lending operations

Loans and advances to customers amounted to around 6,311 million euros at the end of the first half of 2016, representing 66% of total assets, or 62.3% if we consider total net loans. Loans and advances to corporate customers and the public sector totalled around 3,490 million euros (excluding other securitized loans and overdue loans), which corresponds to around 63% of total lending operations. Loans and advances to private customers represented 37% of total lending, having increased by 5.9%, which corresponds to 113.8 million euros more, totalling over 2,045 million euros.

The increase by almost 323 million euros in terms of loans granted, which represents 6.2% more when compared with the same period last year, was mostly due to the increase by around 209 million euros, or 6.4%, in loans granted to corporate customers and by 122 million euros, or 7.9%, in terms of mortgage loans, since the remaining types of consumer loans have decreased.

The amount of past-due loans totalled around 32.7 million euros, i.e. 9%.

The 419 million euro change in terms of total net loans profited from the decrease in loan impairment by around 25.7 million euros, thus representing a 7.9% increase when compared wit the same period last year and exceeding the 6.7% change in terms of gross loans.

On an individual basis, the amount of past-due loans and interest totalled approximately 396.7 million euros at the end of the first half of 2016, 9% or 396.7 million euros more, when compared with the same period last year. This category of loans represented 6.29% of total loans. Taking into consideration only loans that have been non-performing for more than 90 days this indicator stood at 6.13%.

Total non-performing loans on an individual basis amounted to over 912 million euros at the end of the first half of 2016, which represents around 14.45% of total loans and has showed an improving trend of 9% since the end of the first half of 2015. On a consolidated basis its weight on total loans decreased to 14.37%.

Main risks and uncertainties

In the second half of 2016, and in spite of a slight recovery trend of the economic situation of the country, there are still many challenges ahead and therefore we need to take into consideration a series of situations that may originate certain risks to the development of Banco Popular's activity, namely those that may restrain the fulfilment of the goals defined in the Budget and in the Financing and Capital Plan.

At this point, we would like to identify the main risks that may have an impact on the activity of the Bank during the second half of 2016 and that may lead future results to be materially different from those expected, namely:

Half Year 2016

• In Portugal, and despite some positive signs, there are still some risks and uncertainties tied with the still frail socio-economical conditions and the uncertain political scenario that is dependant upon the discussion of the General Government Budget for 2017.

• In Europe, we would like to highlight that the European Central Bank has maintained an accommodative monetary policy by keeping the reference interest rate at low levels for a long period of time, and enforced a policy on refinancing lines to support the economy, while strengthening the construction of the Banking Union in the sense of maintaining financial stability and trust in the euro and the economies that comprise it.

• Future regulatory developments that may introduce additional challenges for the banking sector on the short term.

Risks associated with the Bank's activity:

Despite the several control mechanisms and the measures implemented to mitigate them, the Bank is exposed to specific risks in its activity, namely:

• Credit and Concentration Risk – This is the main risk that the Bank is exposed to; we cannot exclude the possibility of a decline in the quality of its assets.

• Market Risk – The Bank's trading portfolio is not very significant, thus we do not expect any relevant impact via this type of risk during the second half of 2016.

• Liquidity Risk – In the past few years, the Bank has significantly reduced its liquidity dependence on the parent company. However, in a possible crisis scenario, it might be more difficult to obtain funding via the financial markets; the impossibility of resorting to this financing source would imply an almost exclusive funding by the parent company.

• Interest Rate Risk – Although not expected, a significant change in interest rates might have a positive impact on net interest income.

• Exchange Rate Risk - The global currency position tends to be null and therefore any impact on the Bank's earnings as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates is immaterial.

• Operational Risk - According to the latest self-assessment exercise regarding operational risks inherent to each area in the Bank, residual risk is concentrated mostly in a low-risk category. Quantitatively, losses due to operational risk in the first half of the year compare very favourably with the same period last year and we expect a similar behaviour in the second half of the year.

• Reputational and Compliance Risk – These are risks to which the Bank is also exposed, although the internal governance system has reduced the probability of occurrence of events with impact on the results.

• Other Risks – The Bank is also exposed to other risks (for example, technological risk, real estate risk or the risk inherent to the application of its strategy). However, we do not

20

anticipate that these risks shall have a significant influence on the Bank's activity and its results during the second half of the year.

Notes to the Financial Statements

NOTES TO THE INDIVIDUAL AND CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 30 June 2016 AND 2015

(€ thousand)

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 Activity

The Bank - then named BNC-Banco Nacional de Crédito Imobiliário - was founded on 2 July 1991, following the authorization given by Decree order No. 155/91, of 26 April, issued by the Ministry for Finances. On 12 September 2005, the name of the Bank was changed to Banco Popular Portugal, S.A.

The Bank is authorized to operate pursuant to the rules and regulations currently applicable to banks in Portugal and its corporate purpose is raising funds from third parties in the form of deposits or other, which it applies, together with its own funds, in granting loans or in other assets, also providing additional banking services in the country and abroad.

The accounts of the Bank are consolidated at the parent company, Banco Popular Español, S.A., ('BPE') whose Head Office is located in Madrid, Spain, at 34 Calle Velázquez.

BPE accounts are available at its respective Head Office as well on its webpage (www.bancopopular.es).

The Bank is not a listed company.

1.2 Bank structure

As a result of the restructuring process initiated in previous years, during 2011, the Bank ceased to hold any equity stake in any subsidiary and ceased to reclassify 'Class D Notes' issued by Navigator Mortgage Finance Nº 1 Plc ('Navigator') into the available-for-sale asset portfolio.

Based on the assumption that the investment in Navigator and its potential impact on the financial statements were considered immaterial, and pursuant to IAS 1 revised, the Bank decided not to prepare consolidated financial statements from 2011 onwards, since that information is not materially relevant for effects of the presentation of the Bank's financial information nor does it influence the decision of the readers of those statements.

As at 30 June 2016 and 2015, the Bank detained only one equity stake in the associated company Eurovida – Companhia de Seguros de Vida, S.A. (see Notes 20 and 25).

On 31 December 2015, Popular Factoring, S.A., handed the Bank of Portugal a merger project with Banco Popular Portugal, S.A. The planned acquisition of the Qualifying Holding, owned by Banco Popular Español, S.A. (sole shareholder of Banco Popular Portugal, S.A.), took place in April 2016, following the approval of the Bank of Portugal, by means of a share capital increase of Banco Popular

Portugal, S.A., fully subscribed by its sole shareholder, Banco Popular Español, S.A., through contributions in kind substantiated by the Qualifying Holding.

As at 30 June 2016, the Bank fully owned Popular Factoring, S.A., after acquiring the qualifying holding from Banco Popular Español, S.A., (which amounted to 99.83%) and compulsorily purchasing the remaining shares.

Popular Factoring, S.A. (henceforth 'consolidated company') is presented in the Bank's consolidated accounts under the full consolidation method.

In the first half of 2016, Banco Popular Portugal, S.A., sold its card business, but this operation shall only come into force on 30 September.

2. Summary of the Main Accounting Principles

The main accounting principles and valuation criteria adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are stated below. These principles were consistently applied to every year presented, except when otherwise stated.

2.1 Bases of preparation

Individual financial statements

Pursuant to article 2 of Notice No. 5/2015 issued by the Bank of Portugal on 7 December, starting on 1 January 2016, the entities that are under the supervision of the Bank of Portugal shall prepare their individual financial statements according to the International Accounting Standards (IAS) as adopted at each moment by the Regulation of the European Union and respecting the conceptual framework for the preparation and presentation of financial statements on which those standards are based, as was formerly required for consolidated financial statements when applicable.

The impact on the individual financial statements of the Bank on 1 January 2016 arising from the application of the IAS mostly resulted in a decrease in the provisions for customer loans and guarantees, arising from the recognition of impairment losses according to IAS 39 that replaced the former framework provided by Notice No. 3/95 issued by the Bank of Portugal and now revoked. This originated, excluding the associated tax effect, an increase of the share capital by 46 847 thousand euros.

As a consequence of the same Notice and from the correction of the deferred taxes estimates, the amounts set out in the 2015 restatement differ from those published in the previous year.

Furthermore, the amount of taxes that result from positive equity changes in consequence of the revocation of the 3/95 Notice and transition to imparity (according to the 5/95 Notice) were accounted as current year earnings in the first half of 2016. During this fiscal year these taxes will be reflected as retained earnings. This impact, materially non-relevant, would have led to a decrease of €1.993 thousands in retained earnings (considering a tax rate – IRC – of 22.5%) and an improvement in current year earnings of €665 should they had been accounted until June 2016.

Consolidated financial statements

The consolidated financial statements were prepared based on the accounting records of Banco Popular Portugal, SA and Popular Factoring, SA and were processed according to the Reporting Standards Financial and International Accounting Standards / International Financial Reporting Standards (IAS / IFRS) adopted by the European Union as established by Regulation (EC) No 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 July, transposed into national law through the Notice of Banco de Portugal No 1/2005 of 21 February.

2.2 Segmental reporting

As of 1 January 2009, the Bank adopted IFRS 8 – Operating Segments for effects of disclosing financial information analysed by operating segments (see Note 5).

An operational segment in a business is a group of assets and operations used to provide products or services, subject to risks and benefits that are different from those seen in other segments.

The Bank determines and presents operational segments based on in-house produced management information.

2.3 Equity stakes in associated companies

Associated companies are those in which the Bank has, directly or indirectly, a significant influence over its management and financial policy but does not hold control over the company. It is assumed that the Bank has a significant influence when it holds the power to control over 20% of the voting rights of the associate. Even when voting rights are lower than 20%, the Bank may have significant influence through the participation in management bodies or the composition of the Executive Boards of Directors.

In the Bank's individual financial statements, associated companies are booked at historical cost. The dividends from associated companies are booked in the Bank's individual income on the date they are attributed or received.

In case of objective evidence of impairment, the loss by impairment is recognised in the income statement.

2.4 Foreign currency transactions

a) Functional currency and presentation currency

The financial statements are presented in euros, which is both the functional and presentation currency of the Bank.

b) Transactions and Balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using indicative exchange rates prevailing on the dates of transactions. Gains and losses resulting from the conversion of foreign currency transactions, deriving from their extinction and conversion into monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies at the exchange rate at the end of each period, are recognised in the income statement, except when they are part of cash flow hedges or net investment in foreign currency, which are deferred in equity.

Conversion differences in non-monetary items, such as equity instruments measured at fair value with changes recognised in net income, are booked as gains and losses at fair value. For non-monetary items, such as equity instruments, classified as available for sale, conversion differences are booked in equity, in the fair value reserve.

2.5 Derivative financial instruments

Derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on trade date and subsequently remeasured at fair value. Fair values are based on quoted market prices, including recent market transactions and evaluation models, namely: discounted cash flow models and option valuation models Derivatives are considered assets when their fair value is positive and liabilities when their fair value is negative.

Certain derivatives embedded in other financial instruments – such as debt instruments whose profitability is indexed to share or share index price – are treated as separate derivatives when their economic characteristics and risks are not closely related to those of the host contract and the host contract is not carried at fair value through profit or loss. These embedded derivatives are measured at fair value and subsequent changes are recognised in the income statement.

The Bank holds: (i) trading derivatives, measured at fair value – gains and losses arising from changes in their fair value are immediately included in the income statement, and (ii) fair value derivatives accounted for in conformity with Note 3.1 a).

2.6 Recognition of interest and similar income and interest and similar charges

Interest income and charges are recognised in the income statement for all instruments measured at amortized cost in accordance with the pro rata temporis accrual method.

Once a financial asset or group of financial assets has been written down as a result of an impairment loss, interest income should be recognised using the rate of interest used to discount the future cash flows for the purpose of measuring the impairment loss.

2.7 Fees and commissions

Fees and commissions are generally recognised using the accrual method when the service has been provided. Revenue from credit line fees, which are expected to originate a loan, is differed (together with any cost directly related) and recognised as an adjustment at the effective interest rate. Fees and commissions on trades, or participation in third party trades - such as purchasing stock or purchasing or selling a business - are recognised as earned when the service has been provided. Portfolio and other management advisory fees are recognised based on the applicable service contracts – usually recognised proportionally to the time elapsed. Asset management fees related to investment funds are recognised rateably over the period the service is provided.

2.8 Financial assets

Financial assets are recognised in the Balance Sheet on trade date - the date on which the Bank commits to purchase or sell the asset. Financial assets are initially recognised at fair value plus direct transaction costs, except for financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss for which transaction cost are directly recognised in the income statement. Financial assets are derecognised when (i) the rights to receive cash flows from these assets have expired, (ii) the Bank has substantially transferred all risks and rewards of ownership, or (iii) notwithstanding the fact that the Bank may have

retained part, but not substantially all, of the risks and benefits associated with holding them, control over the assets was transferred.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount booked in the income statement when, and only when, the Bank has a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and intends to settle them on a net basis.

The Bank classifies its financial assets into the following categories: at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments, and available-for-sale financial assets. Management determines the classification of the financial instruments at initial recognition.

a) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

This category has two sub-categories: Financial assets held for trading, and those designated at fair value through profit or loss. A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term or if so designated by Management. Derivative financial assets are also categorised as held for trading unless they qualify for hedge accounting.

The fair value option is only used for financial assets and liabilities in one of the following circumstances:

  • There is a significant reduction in the measurement inconsistencies that would arise if the related derivatives were treated as held for trading and the underlying financial instruments were carried at amortised cost, such as loans and advances to customers or banks and debt securities;
  • Certain investments, such as equity investments, that are managed and evaluated on a fair value basis in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy and reported to management on that basis; and
  • Financial instruments, such as holdings of debt securities, with one or more embedded derivatives that significantly modify cash flows, are carried at fair value through profit and loss.

These assets are assessed daily or at each reporting date based on fair value. In the case of bonds and other fixed-income securities the balance sheet contains the amount of unpaid accrued interest.

Gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are included directly in the income statement, which also includes interest revenue and dividends on traded assets and liabilities at fair value. Revenue from interest on financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is carried in net interest income.

Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the derivatives that are managed together with designated financial assets and liabilities are included in item 'Income from assets and liabilities at fair value through profit and loss'.

b) Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables includes loans to customers and banks, leasing operations, factoring operations, participation in syndicated loans and securitised loans (commercial paper and corporate bonds) that are not traded in an active market and for which there is no selling intention.

Loans and securitised loans traded in an active market are classified as available-for-sale financial assets.

Loans and receivables are initially recognised at fair value. In general, fair value at inception corresponds to transaction value and includes fees, commissions or other credit-related costs and revenues.

Subsequently, loans and receivables are valued at amortised cost based on the effective interest rate method and subject to impairment tests.

Interest, fees, commissions and other credit-related costs and revenues are recognised on an accrual basis over the period of the transactions regardless of the moment when they are charged or actually paid. Fees on loan commitments are recognised on a deferred and linear basis during the lifetime of the commitment.

The Bank classifies as non-performing loans instalments of principal or interest after, at most, thirty days of their due date. In case of litigation, all principal instalments are considered non-performing (current and past due).

Factoring

Credit to customers includes advances within factoring operations with recourse and the amount of the invoices granted without recourse, whose intention is not a short run sale, and is recorded on the date the accounts receivable are assigned by the seller of the product or service that issues the invoice.

Accounts receivables assigned by the issuer of the invoices or other commercial credits for recourse or non-recourse factoring are registered on assets under the item Loans and advances to customers. As a counterpart it changes the item other liabilities.

When invoices are taken with recourse but cash advances on those respective contracts have not been made yet, they are registered in off-balance sheet accounts on the amount of the invoices that have been received. The off-balance sheet account is rectified as the cash advances are made.

Commitments arising from credit lines to factoring customers that have not been utilized yet are registered in off-balance sheet accounts.

Guarantees granted and irrevocable commitments

Liabilities for guarantees granted and irrevocable commitments are registered in off-balance sheet accounts by the value at risk and interest flows, commissions or other revenues recorded in the income statement during the lifetime of the operations. These operations are subject to impairment tests.

c) Held-to-maturity investments

This item includes non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and defined maturities that the Bank has the intention and ability to hold to maturity.

These assets are initially recognised at fair value, minus possible commissions included in the effective rate, plus all direct incremental costs. They are subsequently valued at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method and subject to impairment tests. If during a subsequent period the amount of the loss of impairment decreases, and that decrease may be objectively tied to an event that happened after the impairment was recognised, this is reversed through the income statement.

d) Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that: (i) the Bank intends to keep for an undetermined period of time, (ii) are recognised as available for sale at inception, or (ii) are not categorized into any of the other categories described above.

This item includes:

  • Fixed-income securities that have not been classified in the trading book or the credit portfolio, or held-to-maturity investments;
  • Available-for-sale variable-yield securities; and
  • Available-for-sale financial asset funds and supplementary funds.

Available-for-sale assets are recognised at fair value, except for equity instruments that are not listed on any active market and whose fair value may not be reliably measured or estimated, in which case they are recognised at cost value.

Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of available-for-sale financial assets are directly recognised in equity in item Fair value revaluation reserves, except for impairment losses and foreign exchange gains and losses of monetary assets, until the asset is sold, when the gain or loss previously recognised in equity is carried in the income statement.

Interest from bonds and other fixed-income securities and the differences between acquisition cost and the nominal value (premium or discount) are registered in the income statement using the effective rate method.

Revenue from variable-income securities (dividends in the case of shares) are booked in the income statement on the date they are attributed or received. According to this criterion, interim dividends are recorded as profit in the exercise their distribution is decided.

In case of objective impairment evidence – resulting from a significant and prolonged decline in the fair value of the security or from financial problems on the part of the issuer – the cumulative loss on the fair-value revaluation reserve is removed from equity and recognised in the income statement.

Impairment losses on fixed-income securities may be reversed on the income statement if there is a positive change in the security's fair value as a result of an event that occurred after the initial impairment recognition. Impairment losses on variable-income securities may not be reversed. In the case of impaired securities, subsequent negative fair-value changes are always recognised in the income statement.

Exchange rate fluctuations of non-monetary assets (equity instruments) classified in the available-forsale portfolio are registered in fair-value reserves. Exchange rate fluctuations in the other securities are booked in the income statement.

2.9 Impairment of financial assets

a) Assets carried at amortised cost

The Bank assesses on each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset, or group of financial assets, is impaired. A financial asset, or group of financial assets, is impaired and impairment losses are incurred if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset and that event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset, or group of financial assets, that can be reliably estimated. Objective evidence that an asset, or group of assets, is impaired includes observable data that the Bank is aware of, regarding the following loss events:

  • (i) significant financial stress of the borrower;
  • (ii) a breach of contract, such as a default in principal and/or interest payments;
  • (iii) concessions granted to the borrower, for reasons relating to the borrower's financial difficulty, that the lender would not have otherwise considered;
  • (iv) probability that the borrower will go into bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation;
  • (v) disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties;
  • (vi) information indicating that there will be a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a group of financial assets since the initial recognition of those assets, although that decrease cannot yet be identified with the Bank's assets, including:
  • adverse changes in the group of financial assets' condition and/or payment capacity;
  • national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on the assets in the portfolio.

The Bank assesses initially whether objective evidence of impairment exists for financial assets that are individually significant, and individually or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. If the Bank determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, it includes that asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk and collectively assesses them for impairment.

If there is objective evidence of an impairment loss on loans and receivables, or held-to-maturity investments, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future impairment losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced and the amount of the loss is recognised in the provisions account. The Bank may also determine impairment losses through the instrument's fair value at observable market prices.

When analysing impairment in a portfolio, the Bank estimates the probability of an operation or a customer to default during the estimated period between impairment occurs and the loss is identified.

For the purpose of a collective evaluation of impairment, financial assets are grouped on the basis of similar risk characteristics (i.e., based on the Bank's classification process that takes into account asset type, geographical location, collateral type, past due status and other relevant factors). These characteristics are relevant to estimate future cash flows for groups of financial assets by being indicative of the counterpart's ability to pay all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the assets being evaluated.

Future cash flows in a group of financial assets that are collectively evaluated for impairment are estimated on the basis of the contractual cash flows of the assets in the group and historical loss experience for assets with credit risk characteristics similar to those in the group. Historical loss experience is adjusted based on current observable data to reflect the effects of current conditions that did not affect the period on which the historical loss experience is based and to remove the effects of conditions in the historical period that do not currently exist.

If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and that decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised (e.g., improvement in a

debtor's credit rating), the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through the provisions account. The amount of the reversal is recognised directly in the income statement.

Loans to customers whose terms have been renegotiated are no longer considered past due and are treated as new loan contracts. Restructuring procedures include: extended payment conditions, approved management plans, payment change and deferral. Restructuring practices and policies are based on criteria that, from the point of view of the Bank's management, indicate that payment has a high probability of occurring.

b) Assets carried at fair value

The Bank assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset, or group of financial assets, is impaired. In the case of equity securities classified as availablefor-sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered in determining whether the securities are impaired. If any such evidence exists for available-for-sale financial assets, the cumulative loss - measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, minus any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in the income statement - is removed from equity and recognised in the income statement.

Impairment losses on equity instruments that have been recognised in the income statement are not reversible. If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available for sale increases and growth can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised, the impairment loss is reversed through the income statement.

2.10 Intangible assets

- Software

Acquired computer software licences are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and bring to use the specific software. These costs are amortised over their estimated useful lives.

Costs associated with software development and maintenance are recognised as expenses when incurred. Costs directly associated with developing unique and identifiable software, controlled by the Bank and where it is probable that they will generate future economic benefits, are recognised as intangible assets.

Costs associated with software development recognised as assets are amortized during its useful life using the straight-line method.

2.11 Intangible assets

The Bank's property is comprised essentially of offices and branches. All tangible assets are stated at historical cost minus depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the assets.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Bank and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Land is not depreciated. Depreciation of other tangible assets is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Estimated useful life (years)
Freehold buildings 50
Adaptation works in leasehold property 10, or during the lease period if lower than 10 years
Furniture, fixtures and fittings 5 to 8
Computers and similar equipment 3 to 4
Transport equipment 4
Other tangible assets 4 to 10

Tangible assets subject to depreciation are submitted to impairment tests whenever events or changes in certain circumstances indicate their carrying amount may no longer be recovered. An asset's carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset's carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher between the value in use and the asset's fair value, minus sale costs.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the income statement.

2.12 Tangible assets held for sale

Assets acquired in exchange for loans (real estate property, equipment and other assets) are booked in item Tangible assets held for sale at the amount stated in the agreement that regulates the asset's delivery, which corresponds to the lower of the outstanding amount of the debt or the asset's evaluation at the time of its delivery.

The Bank's policy for this type of assets is to sell them as soon as possible.

These assets are periodically assessed and impairment losses are recognised whenever the result of that appraisal is lower than the asset's book value (see Note 29).

Potential realized gains on these assets are not recorded in the Balance Sheet.

2.13 Leases

a) As lessee

Leases entered by the Bank are essentially related to transport equipment, where there are contracts classified as financial leases and others as operating leases.

Payments made on operating leases are recognised in the income statement.

When an operating lease is terminated before the end of the lease period, any payment required by the lessor, by way of compensation, is recognised as an expense in the period the operation is terminated.

Financial leases are capitalised at the inception of the lease in the respective item of tangible or intangible assets, as a counterpart to the item Other liabilities, at the lower of (i) the fair value of the leased asset and (ii) the present value of the minimum lease payments. Incremental costs paid for leases are added to the recognised asset. Tangible assets are depreciated pursuant to Note 2.11. Rents are comprised of (i) financial cost charged to expenses and (ii) financial depreciation of premium that is deducted from the item Other liabilities. Financial charges are recognised as expenses over the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic interest rate on the remaining balance of the liability

for each period. However, when there is no reasonable certainty that the Bank will obtain possession of the asset at the end of the lease, the asset must be totally depreciated during the smaller of the lease period or its useful life.

b) As lessor

Assets held under a financial lease are recognised as an expense in the period to which they relate by the current amount of the payments to be made. The difference between the gross amount receivable and the current balance receivable is recognised as receivable financial income.

Interest included in the rents charged to customers is registered as income, while principal depreciation, also included in the rents, is deducted from the overall amount initially lent. Recognition of the financial result reflects a constant periodical return rate over the remaining net investment of the lessor.

2.14 Provisions

Provisions for other risks and charges

Provisions for restructuring costs and legal expenses are recognised whenever: the Bank has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events; it is more likely than not that an outflow of resources will be required to settle that obligation; and the amount can be reliably estimated.

Loan impairment and Provisions for specific and general credit risks

Pursuant to article 2 of Notice No. 5/2015 issued by the Bank of Portugal on 7 December, starting on 1 January 2016, the entities that are under the supervision of the Bank of Portugal shall prepare their individual financial statements according to the International Accounting Standards (IAS) as adopted at each moment by the Regulation of the European Union and respecting the conceptual framework for the preparation and presentation of financial statements on which those standards are based, as was formerly required for consolidated financial statements when applicable.

In accordance with No. 7 of the aforementioned legislation, Notice No. 3/95 issued by the Bank or Portugal was revoked and therefore the Bank prepared its respective financial statements in terms of recognition, classification and measurement of loans granted and other accounts receivable, and determination of impairment entirely pursuant to the reference criteria and principles disclosed by the Bank of Portugal in the Circular Letter No. 02/2014/DSP of 26 February.

2.15 Employee benefits

a) Pension liabilities and other post-retirement benefits

In compliance with the Collective Bargaining Agreement (ACT) for the banking sector, the Bank has established a Pension Fund designed to cover retirement benefits on account of age, including disability, and survivor's benefits, set up for the entire work force, calculated based on projected salaries of staff in active employment. The pension fund is supported by the contributions made, based on the amounts determined by periodic actuarial calculations. A defined benefit plan is a pension plan that generally defines an amount of pension benefit that an employee will receive on retirement, usually dependent on one or more factors such as age, years of service and compensation.

Every year the Bank determines the amount of liabilities for past services using actuarial calculations based on the Project Unit Credit method for liabilities for past services in the case of old age and the

Unique Successive Premium to calculate disability and survivor's benefits. The actuarial assumptions (financial and demographic) are based on expectation at the balance sheet date for the growth in salaries and pensions and are based on mortality tables adapted to the Bank's population. The discount rate is determined based on market rates for high quality corporate bonds, with periods to maturity similar to those for settlement of pension liabilities. The assumptions are mutually compatible. The amount of liabilities includes, besides retirement pensions, post-employment medical care (SAMS) and post-retirement death benefits.

Until 31 December 2012, the Bank recognized the net accumulated amount (after 1 January 2004) of actuarial gains and losses resulting from changes in the financial and actuarial assumptions and differences between the financial and actuarial assumptions used and the actual amounts in the item Other Assets or Other Liabilities - Actuarial Gains/Losses.

Accumulated actuarial gains or losses that did not exceed 10% of the highest of the current value of liabilities for past services or the value of the pension funds were included in the 'corridor'. Actuarial gains/losses in excess of the corridor were recognised against results over the average remaining period of service of the employees covered by the plan.

As at 1 January 2013 the Bank changed its accounting policy of recognising financial and actuarial gains and losses for pension plans and other defined benefit post-employment benefits pursuant to IAS 19 Revised. Financial and actuarial gains and losses are now recognised in the period they occur directly in equity in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

Increases in past service liabilities resulting from early retirement are fully recognised as expenses in the income statement for the year in which they occur.

Increases in past service liabilities resulting from changes in the conditions of Pension Plans are fully recognised as expenses in the case of acquired benefits or depreciated during the period that remains until those benefits are acquired. The balance of the increases in liabilities not yet recognised as expenses are registered in the item Other Assets.

Past service liabilities (post-employment benefits) are covered by a pension fund. The amount of the pension funds corresponds to the fair value of its assets at the balance sheet date.

The financing regime by the pension fund is established in Notice No. 4/2005 issued by the Bank of Portugal, which determines the compulsory fully financing pension liabilities and a minimum level of 95% financing of past service liabilities for staff in active employment.

In the Bank's financial statements, the amount of past service liabilities for retirement pensions, minus the amount of the pension fund, is stated in item Other Liabilities.

The Bank's income statement includes the following expenses related to retirement and survivor pensions:

  • Current service cost;
  • Interest expense on the total outstanding liabilities;
  • Expected revenue of the pension fund;
  • Expenses with increases in early retirement liabilities;
  • 'Multiprotecção' life insurance premium (see Note 37);
  • Management fee paid to the fund management company.

On the transition date, the Bank adopted the possibility permitted by IFRS 1 of not recalculating deferred actuarial gains and losses from the beginning of the plans (normally known as the reset

option). Thus, deferred actuarial gains and losses recognised in the Bank's accounts as at 31 December 2003 were fully reversed in retained earnings on the transition date – 1 January 2004.

b) Seniority bonuses

In compliance with the Collective Bargaining Agreement (ACT) for the banking sector in Portugal, the Bank has committed to attribute to active staff that complete fifteen, twenty-five and thirty years of good and effective service, a seniority bonus equal, respectively, to one, two or three months of their effective monthly salary on the year of the attribution.

Every year the Bank determines the amount of liabilities for seniority bonuses using actuarial calculations based on the Project Unit Credit method for liabilities for past services. The actuarial assumptions (financial and demographic) are based on expectation at the balance sheet date for the growth in salaries and pensions and are based on mortality tables adapted to the Bank's population. The discount rate is determined based on market rates for high quality corporate bonds, with periods to maturity similar to those for settlement of pension liabilities. The assumptions are mutually compatible.

Liabilities for seniority bonuses are recognised in the item Other Liabilities.

The Bank's income statement includes the following expenses regarding seniority bonus liabilities:

  • cost of current service (cost of one year);
  • interest expenses;
  • actuarial gains/losses, changes in assumptions or changes in the conditions of the benefits.

2.16 Deferred taxes

Deferred taxes are recognised using the balance sheet debt method, based on temporary differences arising from the differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred income tax is determined using the effective tax rate on profits at the balance sheet date that is expected to apply when the deferred tax asset is realised or the deferred tax liability is settled.

Deferred income tax is recognised when it is probable that in the future there is enough tax on profits so that it can be used.

Taxes on profits based on the application of legal rates for each jurisdiction are recognised as expenses in the period when the profit is originated. The tax effects of reportable tax losses are recognised as an asset when it is likely that the future profitable profit is enough for the reportable tax loss to be utilized.

Deferred tax related to fair value revaluation of an available-for-sale asset, which is charged or credited directly in equity, is also credited or charged in equity and subsequently recognised in the income statement together with deferred gains or losses.

2.17 Financial liabilities

The Bank classifies its financial liabilities into the following categories: held-for-trade financial liabilities, other financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss, deposits from central bank, deposits from other banks, customer deposits, securitised liabilities and other subordinated liabilities. Management determines the classification of the financial instruments at initial recognition.

a) Financial liabilities held for trading and at fair value through profit and loss

This item essentially includes deposits whose yield is indexed to stock portfolios or indexes and the negative fair value of derivative contracts. The evaluation of these liabilities is made based on fair value. The balance sheet value of deposits includes the amount in accrued interest not paid.

b) Central banks, other banks, and customer funds

After the initial recognition, deposits and other financial assets from customers, central banks and other banks are revalued at amortized cost based on the effective interest rate method.

c) Securitised liabilities, and other subordinated liabilities

These liabilities are initially recognised at fair value, which is the amount for which they were issued net of transaction costs incurred. These liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost and any difference between the net amount received on transaction and their redemption value is recognised in the income statement over the liability period using the effective interest rate method.

If the Bank acquires its own debt, this amount is removed from the balance sheet and the difference between the balance sheet amount of the liability and the amount spent to acquire it is recognised in the income statement.

2.18 Non-current assets held for sale

Non-current assets, or disposal groups, are classified as held for sale whenever their book value is recoverable through sale. This condition can only be met when the sale is highly probable and the asset is available for immediate sale in its current condition. The sale must be performed within one year from the date on which they are included in this item. An extension of the period during which the asset must be sold does not exclude that asset, or a disposal group, from being classified as held for sale if the delay is caused by an event or circumstances that the Bank cannot control and if the selling purpose is maintained. Immediately before the initial classification of the asset, or disposal group, as held for sale, the book value of non-current assets (or of every asset and liability in the group) is carried pursuant to the applicable IFRS. Subsequently these assets, or disposal group, will be remeasured at the lower between the initial carrying amount and the fair value minus selling costs.

2.19 Insurance and reinsurance brokerage

Banco Popular Portugal is authorized by the Authority for the Supervision of Insurances and Pension Funds to act as an insurance broker in the category of Associated Insurance Broker pursuant to paragraph 8(i) of Decree-law No. 144/2006 of 31 July, performing its brokerage activity in the area of life and non-life insurances.

In the scope of its insurance brokerage services, Banco Popular sells insurance contracts. As remuneration for the services rendered as an insurance broker, Banco Popular receives fees and commissions for insurance contracts and investment contracts, which are defined in agreements/protocols established between the Bank and the Insurance Companies.

The fees and commissions received for insurance brokerage services are recognized on an accrual basis, which means that those paid at a different moment from the period their refer to are booked as a receivable in item Other Assets (see Note 8).

3. Financial risk management

3.1 Strategy used for financial instruments

In view of its activity, the Bank raises funds essentially through customer deposits and monetary market operations.

Besides the activities of credit granting, the Bank also applies its funds in financial investments, particularly in the group of investments that currently comprise the Bank's portfolio.

The Bank's securities portfolio - including available-for-sale financial assets and trading portfolio amounted to around 1.4 billion euros in the first half of 2016, representing around 15% of the Bank's total net assets. The typology of these assets was broken down as follows: public Portuguese debt (15.6%), public Spanish debt (60.3%), banks (20.9%) and others (3.2%).

To hedge its investment against interest rate risk, the Bank carried out interest rate swap operations and monetary market operations, thus trying to control the variability of interest rate risk and the flows generated by these assets.

a) Fair value hedge accounting

Gains and losses resulting from the revaluation of hedge derivatives are recognised in the income statement. Gains and losses deriving from differences in terms of the fair value of hedged financial assets and liabilities, corresponding to the hedged risk, are also recognised in the income statement as a counterpart for the carrying value of the hedged assets and liabilities, in the case of operations at amortized cost, or by counterpart of the reserve for fair value revaluation in the case of available-forsale assets.

Efficacy tests for hedges are accordingly documented on a regular basis, ensuring the existence of proof during the lifetime of the hedged operations. If the hedge no longer meets the criteria demanded by hedge accounting, it shall be prospectively discontinued.

b) Cash flow hedge accounting

In a cash flow hedge, the effective part of the changes in fair value for the hedged derivative is recognised in reserves, and transferred to the income statement in the periods when the respective hedged item affects results. If it is foreseeable that the hedged operation will not take place, the amounts still stated in equity are immediately recognised in the income statement and the hedged instrument is transferred to the trading book.

The Bank is exposed to a certain cash flow risk as regards open positions in foreign currency. However, in view of the little materiality of the normally existing overall position, no hedge operations are carried out in this case.

3.2 Financial assets and liabilities at fair value

The Board of Directors considered that as at 30 June 2016, the fair value of assets and liabilities at amortised cost did not differ significantly from its book value.

In order to determine the fair value of a financial asset or liability, its market price is applied whenever there is an active market for it. In case there is no active market, which happens with some financial assets and liabilities, generally accepted valuation techniques based on market assumptions are employed.

The net income of financial assets and liabilities at fair value that have not been classified as hedging includes an amount of 41 858 thousand euros (June 2015: 990 thousand euros).

Consequently, the fair value change recognized in the income statement for the period is analysed as follows:

The table below classifies fair value assessment of the Bank's financial assets and liabilities based on a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs that were used in the assessment, according to the following levels:

  • Level 1: (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
  • Level 2: different inputs for market prices included in Level 1 that are observable for assets and liabilities either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from the prices);
  • Level 3: inputs for assets and liabilities that are not based on observable market data (nonobservable inputs).

3.3 Credit risk

The Bank is exposed to credit risk, which is the possible loss that arises when the Bank's counterparties fail to fulfil their obligations. In the case of lending, it implies the loss of principal, interest and commissions, regarding amount, period and other conditions set forth in the contracts. Concerning off-balance sheet risks, it derives from the non-compliance of the counterparts regarding their obligations with third parties, which implies that the Bank has to assume as its own certain obligations depending on the contracts.

The Bank structures the levels of credit risk it is exposed to by establishing pre-defined acceptable risk amounts regarding the borrower or group of borrowers and geographical or business activity segments.

Exposure to credit risk is managed through a regular analysis of the capacity of borrowers and potential borrowers of meeting payment obligations for principal and interest, and by changing these loan limits when appropriate. Exposure to credit risk is also managed in part by obtaining collaterals and personal or corporate guarantees.

- Collaterals

The Bank employs a series of policies and practices in order to mitigate credit risk. The most traditional one is securing collaterals at the moment funds are advanced. The Bank implements guidelines regarding the acceptability of specific classes of collaterals or mitigation of credit risk. The main types of collaterals for loans and receivables are:

  • Property mortgages;
  • Pledges of operations made within the Bank;
  • Pledges on assets such as premises, inventory and accounts receivable;
  • Pledges on financial instruments, such as securities and shares.

Long-term loans to corporate and private customers usually require a collateral; lower amounts and recurring personal loans generally require no collateral. Additionally, with the intention of minimising loss, at the time an impairment indicator for loans and receivables is identified the Bank tries to obtain additional collaterals from the relevant counterparties.

Collaterals held for financial assets, except for loans and advances, are determined by the nature of the instrument. Debt instruments, treasury bonds and other securities usually are not collateralised.

- Lending commitments

The main objective of these instruments is to ensure that funds are made available to customers as they require them. Loan extension commitments represent non-utilized parts of credit extension authorizations in the form of loans, guarantees or letters of credit. Regarding the credit risk associated with loan extension commitments, the Bank is potentially exposed to a loss in the amount of the total of non-utilized commitments. However, the probable loss amount is much lower than the sum of the nonutilized commitments since loan extension commitments are revocable and depend on a specific customer's credit worthiness. The Bank monitors the maturity of lending commitments since long term commitments usually present a greater credit risk than short-term commitments.

- Maximum exposure to credit risk

As at 30 June 2016 and 31 December 2015, maximum exposure to credit risk was as follows:

The table above shows the worst-case scenario in terms of the level of exposure to credit risk the Bank faced as at 30 June 2016 and 31 December 2015, without considering any collateral held or other credit enhancements. For on-balance sheet assets, the above stated exposure is based on their carrying amount on the balance sheet.

As seen in the table above, 65.7% of total maximum exposure results from loans and advances to customers (dec 2015: 68.0%).

The Bank's management trusts its capacity to control and maintain a minimal exposure to credit risk, which results mainly from its customer portfolio, based on the following assumptions:

  • 54.15% of the amount of loans and advances to customers has eligible collaterals;
  • 93.72% of customer loan portfolio is not past due.

- Concentration by activity segment of financial assets with credit risk

The tables below show the exposure of the Bank according to the assets' carrying amount (excluding accrued interest) broken down by activity segment.

3.4 Geographic breakdown of assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items

The Bank operates fully on the national market. Therefore, it is not relevant to perform an analysis by geographical sector, since there is no identifiable item within a specific economic environment that is subject to differentiated risks or benefits.

3.5 Market risk

Market Risk is the probability of negative impact on the Bank's earnings or capital due to adverse changes in the market prices of the instruments in the trading book, caused by the volatility of equity prices, interest rates, and foreign exchange rates.

As at 30 June 2016, the Bank's portfolio amounted to around 1.8 billion euros, of which only around 0.47 million euros were classified as financial assets held for trading.

- Risk-sensitivity analysis

In the scope of the stress test performed, Banco Popular carries out a sensitivity analysis to a 30% fluctuation in stock indexes. In case of devaluation within such order of magnitude, we can conclude that there is no need for additional capital.

We would also like to add that on that date, market risk represented only around 0.002% of total risk weighted assets (RWA) calculated pursuant to CRD IV/CRR.

3.6 Exchange rate risk

The national currency equivalent, in thousands of euros, of assets and liabilities at sight expressed in foreign currency is as follows:

- Risk-sensitivity analysis

The activity of Banco Popular Portugal regarding foreign currency consists in making transactions based on customer operations. In this framework, the overall foreign exchange position of the Bank is virtually non-existent.

Thus, as can be seen, whatever the impact of foreign currency prices on foreign exchange terms, it is financially immaterial for the Bank's income, which is why no risk-sensitivity analysis are carried out.

3.7 Interest rate risk

This risk assesses the impact on net interest income and equity as a result in fluctuation in market interest rates.

The interest rate risk of the balance sheet is measured using a repricing gap model applied to assets and liabilities that are susceptible to interest rate fluctuations pursuant to Instruction No. 19/2005 issued by the Bank of Portugal. Briefly, this model groups assets and liabilities that are sensitive to fluctuations at fixed time brackets (maturity dates or the first interest rate revision in case of indexation), from which one calculates the potential impact on the intermediation margin.

3.8 Liquidity risk

The Bank permanently follows the evolution of its liquidity, monitoring cash inflows and outflows at all times. Liquidity projections are prepared in order to allow for careful planning of short and mediumterm funding strategies.

The Bank's primary source of funding are deposits from customers, complemented by access to the capital markets via bond issues and to the interbank market, where we focus on operations with Banco Popular Group. Simultaneously the Bank has tried to ensure other sources of funding, carefully selected for each maturity depending on pricing, stability, speed of access, depth, and compliance with the pre-established risk management policies.

The liquidity management process, as performed by the Bank, includes:

  • The daily funding needs that are managed by monitoring future cash flows in order to guarantee that the requirements are met. This includes write-backs as loans mature or are granted to customers;
  • Maintaining a high-liquidity asset portfolio so that these can be easily converted into cash as a protection against any unexpected interruption in cash flows;
  • Monitoring liquidity ratios taking into account external and internal requirements;
  • Managing the concentration and profile of debt maturities resorting to the liquidity gap model.

Besides the obligations established by the Bank of Portugal under the terms of Instruction No. 13/2009, the Bank also resorts to the concept of liquidity gap, i.e., from the balance sheet of the Bank as at 30 June 2016, based on the maturities of assets and liabilities it is possible to ascertain the ratio between the referred to maturities (positive or negative) according to residual maturity deadlines called liquidity gaps. The Bank also calculates LCR (Liquidity Coverage Ratio), NSFR (Net Stable Funding Ratio), and ALMM (Additional Liquidity Monitoring Metrics), with the aim to monitor the evolution of liquidity and report it to the supervising authorities.

The table below presents the Bank's balance sheet (without accrued interest) at the end of June 2016 with the main classes grouped by maturity date:

3.9 Operational risk

Banco Popular Portugal interprets Operational Risk as defined in the Basel II Accord, i.e., as the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people and systems or from external events.

The management process is based on an analysis by functional area listing the risks inherent in the specific functions and tasks of each body in the structure.

Involving the whole organization, the management model is ensured by the following structures:

Executive Committee (CE) – top management structure that is the main responsible for management guidelines and policies, establishing and monitoring risk appetite and risk tolerance limits.

Risk Management (DGR) - integrates the unit exclusively dedicated to managing operational risk. It is in charge of boosting and coordinating the remaining structures towards the application of methodologies and employment of corporate tools to support the model.

Heads of Operational Risk (RRO) – corresponds to the basis of the organization, these are elements appointed by the hierarchies of each organic unit who have the role of facilitators and promoters of the operational risk management model.

In the process of operational risk management, they also play a key role in the auditing structures, internal control and security of the Bank.

3.10 Fiduciary activities

The Bank provides custody services, guarantees, corporate management services, investment management and third party advisory services. These activities demand the allocation of assets and purchasing and sale transactions regarding a wide range of financial instruments. These assets, which are kept in fiduciary capacity, are not included in these financial statements. As at 30 June 2016, the Bank held investment accounts in the amount of 5 615 124 thousand euros (dec 2015: 5116508 thousand euros) and managed estimated financial assets in the amount of 175 742 thousand euros (dec 2015: 179144 thousand euros).

3.11 Capital management and disclosures

The main objective of capital management at the Bank is meeting the minimum requirements defined by supervisory entities in terms of capital adequacy and ensuring that the strategic objectives of the Bank in terms of capital adequacy are met.

The definition of the strategy to adopt in terms of capital management is in the scope of the Bank's Board of Directors.

In prudential terms, the Bank is subject to the supervision of the Bank of Portugal, which issues the rules and regulations regarding this matter that guide the several institutions under their supervision. These rules and regulations determine a minimum ratio of total own funds in relation to the requirements of committed risks that the institutions must abide by.

As at 30 June 2016, Core Tier 1 ratio calculated pursuant to CRD IV/CRR stood at 13.8% (dec 2015: 12.0%) highly above the minimum amount required by the Bank of Portugal (7%).

4. Estimates and assumptions in the application of accounting policies

The Bank makes estimates and assumptions with impact on the reported amount of assets and liabilities in the following year. These estimates and assumptions are continuously assessed and conceived based on historical data and other factors, such as expectations regarding future events.

a) Impairment losses on loans

Every month, the Bank assesses its securities portfolio to evaluate potential impairment losses. In determining whether an impairment loss should be recorded in the income statement, the Bank analyses observable data that may be indicative of a measurable decrease in estimated cash flows both of the trading book and of specific individual cases within a trading book. This analysis may indicate, for example, an adverse event in the capacity of a customer to pay a loan or the worsening of macroeconomic conditions and related indicators. Management uses estimates based on historical data available for assets with similar credit risk and possible impairment losses. The methodology and assumptions used to calculate these estimates are revised regularly aiming at reducing any differences between estimated and actual losses.

b) Fair value of derivatives and unlisted financial assets

The fair value of derivatives and unlisted financial assets was determined based on evaluation methods and financial theories whose results depend on the assumptions that have been used.

c) Impairment of equity investments in the portfolio of Available-for-sale financial assets

The Bank determines that there is impairment of equity investments of available-for-sale assets when there has been a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value below its cost. The required quantification for the expressions 'significant' and 'prolonged' imply professional judgement. When making this judgement, the Bank assesses among other factors the normal volatility of share prices. As a complement, impairment should be recognised when there are events that show the deterioration of the viability of the investment, the performance of the industry and the sector, technological changes and operational and financial cash flows.

d) Retirement and survivor's pensions

Liabilities for retirement and survivor's pensions are estimated based on actuarial tables and assumptions on the growth of pensions and salaries. These assumptions are based on the Bank's expectations for the period when the liabilities are to be settled.

e) Deferred taxes

The recognition of a deferred tax asset assumes the existence of profit and a future tax base. Deferred tax assets and liabilities have been determined based on tax legislation currently in effect or on legislation already published for future application. Changes in the interpretation of tax legislation may influence the amount of deferred tax that has been recognised.

5. Segmental reporting

These amounts are similar to consolidated amounts given that the consolidated company does not book any amount in this item.

During the first half of 2016, the Bank received 11.0 thousand euros in dividends from financial assets held for trading (2015: 27.1 thousand euros). In 2016 and 2015 the Bank did not earn any income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.

The effect seen in the item Hedging derivatives at fair value results from fluctuations in the fair value of hedge instruments (interest rate swaps) and variations in the fair value of hedged assets, resulting from the hedged risk (interest rate). Since the hedging instrument is accounted for in the Available-forsale financial assets portfolio, that variation in fair value is carried from Fair value revaluation reserve to the income statement.

15. Income tax

Income tax for the first half of 2016 was calculated based on a nominal rate of 21% over the tax base (21% in 2015). Both in 2016 and 2015, besides the nominal rate, a municipal surcharge of 1.5% was also levied on taxable income, as well as a variable state surcharge that depended on the below indicated tiers:

- Less than 1.5 ME 0%
- Between 1.5 M€ and 7.5 M€ 3%
- Between 7.5 M€ and 35 M€ 5%
- Over 35 M $\epsilon$ 7%

In March 2016, Banco Popular Portugal, S.A., joined the Special Tax Framework for Groups of Companies (Regime Especial de Tributação para Grupos de Sociedades - RETGS), having appointed its sole shareholder, Banco Popular Español, S.A. (BPE), as the leading company in the tax group of companies it owns in Portugal with a stake of 75% or higher, taking the responsibility for the fulfilment of the obligations of the dominant company. The companies owned by BPE that comprise the aforementioned tax group are the following: Popular Factoring, S.A.; Popular Gestão de Activos, S.A.; Eurovida - Companhia de Seguros de Vida, S.A.; Popular Seguros - Companhia de Seguros, S.A.; and Consulteam - Consultores de Gestão, Lda.

As at 30 June 2016, tax expenses on net profit, as well as the tax burden, measured by the relation between income taxes and the profit for the year in the scope of RETGS may be summed up as follows:

30/06/16

As at 30 June 2016 and 2015, tax expenses on individual net profit (excluding RETGS) attributed to Banco Popular, S.A., as well as the tax burden, measured by the relation between income taxes and the profit for the year before those taxes may be summed up as follows:

The reconciliation between the nominal tax rate and the tax burden for 2016 and 2015, as well as the reconciliation between tax expense/income and the product of the individual accounting profit multiplied by the nominal tax rate, after deferred tax, is analysed as follows:

30/06/16 30/06/15

19. Financial assets and liabilities held for trading

The Bank uses the following derivatives:

Currency forward represents a contract between two parties for the exchange of currencies at a determined exchange rate established at the moment of the accomplishment of the contract (forward) for a determined future date. These operations have the purpose of hedging and managing currency risk, through the elimination of the uncertainty of the future value of certain exchange rate, which is immediately fixed by the forward operation.

Interest rate swap, which in conceptual terms can be perceived as an agreement between two parties who compromise to exchange (swap) interest rate differential between them for a specified amount and period of time, periodic payments of fixed rate for floating rate payments. It involves a single currency and consists in the exchange of fixed cash flows for variable ones or vice versa. This kind of instrument is aimed at hedging and managing the interest rate risk, regarding the income of a financial asset or the cost of a loan that a given entity intends to take in a determined future moment.

The fair value of derivative instruments held for trading is set out in the following table:

20. Investments in subsidiaries and associates

As at 30 June 2016, the Bank only held an equity stake in the associate company Eurovida - Companhia de Seguros de Vida, S.A., booked for 20 243 thousand euros, net of impairment, which was reclassified from non-current assets held for sale.

This reclassification results from the fact that IFRS 5 establishes the requirement that for an asset to be classified as non-current its sale should be completed within a year from the date of the reclassification, except as allowed in paragraph 9 of that standard, a situation that was not in effect at the end of December 2015.

The Bank has in its available-for-sale financial assets portfolio an investment of 1 362 thousand euros regarding subordinate bonds (Class D Notes) purchased in June 2002 associated with the securitisation of home loans, in the amount of 250 million euros named Navigator Mortgage Finance No. 1.

In the scope of that securitisation operation, assets were acquired by a loan securitisation fund named Navigator Mortgage Finance No. 1, which simultaneously issued securitisation units fully subscribed by Navigator Mortgage Finance No. 1 Plc, which also issued bonds with the following characteristics:

Nominal value Rating Interest rate

Class C Notes (Senior) 10 000 А A2 3 month Euribor+0.55%
Class D notes (Subordinate) 4 630 n.a. n.a. n.a.

Under the terms of the agreement that was signed the Bank did not assume any commitment regarding cash availabilities of the issuer, as well as liquidity lines, credits, guarantees, rights and residual profits, or any other risks, besides the Class D Notes.

  • Navigator Mortgage Finance No. 1 Fundo, a Portuguese loan securitization fund that purchased the loans;
  • Navigator, SGFTC, a loan securitisation fund manager that manages the fund;

On 31 December 2015, , the 5th Series (290 million) euros, the 6th Series (225 million euros) and the 7 th Series (300 million euros) were booked in the balance sheet. This last issuance was fully repurchased by the Bank.

These bonds are covered by a group of residential mortgage loans and other assets that have been segregated as autonomous equity in the Bank's accounts, therefore grating special credit privileges to the holders of these securities over any other creditors.

The amount of liabilities with pensions in the first half of 2016 is explained by the decrease in the discount rate from 2.40% to 1.88% that occurred on 30 June 2016. (see Note 37).

37. Retirement pensions

The Pension Plan of Banco Popular Portugal is a scheme of benefits that comprehends all the benefits foreseen in the Collective Bargaining Agreement that regulates the banking sector in Portugal

The fund assumes the liabilities with past services of former employees in the proportion of their time of service. As a counterpart, from the amount of liabilities we deduct the amount of liabilities with past services of current employees as regards the time of service rendered in other institutions in the banking sector. These liabilities for services rendered are calculated pursuant to IAS 19 Revised.

The Pension Plan of the executive members of the Board of Directors intends to ensure payment for old age pensions, disability pensions and survivor's pensions for the executive members of the Bank's Board of Directors.

With the publication of Decree-law No. 1-A/2011, of 3 January, the employees comprehended by the Collective Bargaining Agreement and in active life on 4 January 2011 started to be comprehended within the General Social Security Scheme ('Regime Geral da Segurança Social' - RGSS) as regards the benefits of old age pensions. Therefore, from that date on the benefits plan defined for employees comprehended in the Collective Bargaining Agreement as regards retirement pensions started to be funded by the Pension Fund and Social Security. However, the Pension Fund still has the responsibility, after 4 January 2011, to cover liabilities on death, disability and survivor's pensions, as

well as the old age complement in order to match the retirement of the participants in the Pension Fund to the amounts of the current pension plan.

According to guidelines derived from the Note issued on 26 January 2011 by the National Council of Financial Supervisors, the Bank has kept with reference to 31 December 2010 the recognition and measurement method for past services of active employees regarding the events transferred to the RGSS used in previous years.

In accordance with Decree-law No. 127/2011 of 31 December, Banco Popular Portugal transferred to Social Security the liabilities for pensions in payment on 31 December 2011, as well as the part of the assets contained in the pension fund that already covered such liabilities. The liabilities transferred amounted to 6.3 million euros and have already been fully paid (55% in December 2011 and 45% in March 2012).

This transference was booked in the income statement in the amount of 795 thousand euros due to the allocation of the proportional part of accumulated actuarial gains/losses and the actuarial gains/losses originated by the difference in actuarial assumptions used for the calculation of the transferred liabilities. In accordance with Decree-law No. 127/2011 of 31 December, this amount shall be deductible for effects of determining taxable profit, in equal parts, from the fiscal year started on 1 January 2012, regarding the average of the number of years of life expectancy of the pensioners whose responsibilities have been transferred. The respective deferred taxes have been on the amount recognised in the year's net income.

Until 31 December 2012, the Bank recognized the net accumulated amount (after 1 January 2004) of actuarial gains and losses resulting from changes in the financial and actuarial assumptions and differences between the financial and actuarial assumptions used and the actual amounts in the item 'Other Assets or Other Liabilities – Actuarial gains/losses'. Accumulated actuarial gains or losses that did not exceed 10% of the highest of the current value of liabilities for past services or the value of the pension funds were included in the 'corridor'. Actuarial gains/losses in excess of the corridor were recognised against results over the average remaining period of service of the employees covered by the plan.

As at 1 January 2013 Banco Popular changed its accounting policy of recognising financial and actuarial gains and losses for pension plans and other defined benefit post-employment benefits pursuant to IAS 19 Revised. Financial and actuarial gains and losses are now recognised in the period they occur directly in equity in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

On 30 June 2016, the number of participants in the fund was 1 107 (dec 2015: 1 111. On this date, there were 49 retired people and 24 pensioners, and the remaining employees were active.

Current amount of Liabilities

The liabilities assumed for retirement and survivor's pensions are as follows:

Past Services 30-06-16 31-12-15
Obligations at the beginning of the period 163 299 154 196
Service expenses 1 243 2 781
Interest expense 1 922 3 756
Pensions paid ( 783) ( 1 307)
Actuarial deviations 9 799 3 813
Obligations as at 30 June 175 480 163 239

Every year the Bank determines the amount of liabilities for past services using actuarial calculations based on the Project Unit Credit method for liabilities for past services in the case of old age and the Unique Successive Premium to calculate disability and survivor's benefits. The discount rate is determined based on market rates for high quality corporate bonds, with periods to maturity similar to those for settlement of pension liabilities.

In 2015, those showed a significant reduction with subsequent impact on actuarial gains and losses and on the obligations for services rendered.

Obligations for survival and disability, foreseen in the Collective Bargaining Agreement and insurable are covered by the subscription of a multi-protection life insurance policy for the population at stake, except for those whose urgency of disability or survival is considered unfit to insure.

This is an annual renewable temporary contract in which the Insurance company guarantees the Pension Fund of Banco Popular Portugal, S.A., in case of death or disability assessed at 66% or more according to the National Table for Disability, for any of the people comprehended within the insured group, the payment of the hired premiums.

This insurance contract was signed with Eurovida - Companhia de Seguros de Vida S.A., an insurance company that is an associate of Banco Popular Portugal, S.A.

Gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumption are recognised in other comprehensive income in Retained Earnings in the period they occur.

Sensitivity analysis to the Main Assumptions that contribute to the liabilities amount

Taking into consideration the most significant impacts on the amount of liabilities, we have performed a sensitivity analysis through a positive and negative fluctuation in the main assumptions that contribute to the amount of the liabilities, whose impact is analysed as follows:

Impact on current liabilities
Assumption
change
Assumption
increase
Assumption
decrease
Discount rate 0.25% Decrease by 6.0% Increase by 6.5%
Salaries and other benefits growth rate 0.25% Increase by 5.2% Decrease by 4.9%
Pensions growth rate 0.25% Increase by 2.7% Decrease by 2.6%
Increase by 1 year Decrease by 1
year
Average life expectancy Increase by 3.5% Decrease by 3.6%

The sensitivity analyses above are based on the change in a given assumption, keeping all other assumptions equal. In practice, that is very unlikely to occur given the correlations that exist between the several assumptions. When calculating the sensitivity of the amount of liabilities for significant actuarial assumptions we applied the same methods used to calculate the positions in the Balance Sheet.

The methodology used to perform the sensitivity analysis remained unchanged from the previous year.

Expected future cash flows

The future undiscounted cash flows of pension benefits are as follows:

Up to 1 year 1 to 3 years 3 to 5 years Over 5 years Total
Benefit (monthly) 150 183 223 3.674 4 2 3 0

These amounts are similar to consolidated amounts given that the consolidated company does not book any amount in this item. The consolidated company has subscribed with exceptions the Collective Bargaining Agreement for the Banking Sector (Acordo Colectivo de Trabalho Vertical - ACTV) and its employees are covered by the general social security scheme. The consolidated company has no liabilities on account of post-employment medical care due to the exception foreseen by Popular Factoring, S.A., paragraph (e) of the Bulletin of Work and Employment, 1st series, No. 31, of 22 August 1990, given that its employees are covered by the general social security scheme.

47. Measurement of portfolio impairment and respective disclosures (Circular Letter No. 02/2014/DSP issued by the Bank of Portugal)

Qualitative disclosures:

a) Credit risk management policy.

The Bank is exposed to credit risk, which is the possible loss that arises when the Bank's counterparts fail to fulfil their obligations. In the case of refundable financing it arises as a consequence of the nonrecovery of principal, interest and commissions, regarding amount, period and other conditions stipulated in the contracts. Concerning off-balance sheet risks, it derives from the non-compliance of the counterparts regarding their obligations with third parties, which implies that the Bank has to assume as its own certain obligations depending on the contracts.

The Bank structures the levels of credit risk it is exposed to by establishing pre-defined acceptable risk limits regarding the borrower or group of borrowers and geographical or business activity segments.

Exposure to credit risk is managed through a regular analysis of the capacity of borrowers and potential borrowers of meeting payment obligations for principal and interest, and by changing these credit limits when appropriate. Exposure to credit risk is also managed in part by obtaining collaterals and personal or corporate guarantees.

Collaterals

The Bank employs a series of policies and practices in order to mitigate credit risk. The most traditional one is securing collaterals at the moment funds are advanced. The Bank implements guidelines regarding the acceptability of specific classes of collaterals or mitigation of credit risk. The main types of collaterals for loans and receivables are the following:

  • Property mortgages;
  • Pledges of operations made within the Bank;
  • Pledges on assets such as premises, inventory and accounts receivable;
  • Pledges on financial instruments, such as securities and shares.

Long-term loans to corporate and private customers usually require a collateral; lower amounts and recurring personal loans generally require no collateral. Additionally, with the intention of minimising loss, at the time an impairment indicator for loans and receivables is identified the Bank tries to obtain additional collaterals from the relevant counterparties.

Collaterals held for financial assets, except for loans and advances, are determined by the nature of the instrument. Treasury bonds and other debt instruments usually are not collateralised.

Lending commitments

The main objective of these instruments is to ensure that funds are made available to customers as they require them. Loan extension commitments represent non-utilized parts of credit extension authorizations in the form of loans, guarantees or letters of credit. Regarding the credit risk associated with loan extension commitments, the Bank is potentially exposed to a loss in the amount of the total of non-utilized commitments. However, the probable loss amount is much lower than the sum of the non-utilized commitments since loan extension commitments are revocable and depend on a specific customer's credit worthiness. The Bank monitors the maturity of lending commitments since long-term commitments usually present a greater credit risk than short-term commitments.

Concentration Risk

Concentration risk is managed and monitored by Risk Management that also ensures that adequate policies and procedures are maintained and implemented to monitor and manage credit concentration risk. It is also in charge of monitoring delegated powers in terms of concentration risk and periodically presents reports on concentration risk to the Board of Directors.

The Bank has defined a structure of limits aimed at maintaining an exposure level in line with its risk profile and an adequate diversification of its loan portfolio.

The limits currently approved for credit concentration risk are the following:

i) Risk limit for a Group/Customer

Pursuant to the delegations attributed by BAPOP to the Bank, the maximum limit for total exposure with a Group/Customer is 10% of GBP's Tier I. The maximum limit for a Group/Customer, except bank and technical guarantees and transactions guaranteed with deposits is 5% of GBP's Tier I.

ii) Risk limit by transaction amount

The maximum amount for a lending transaction is defined.

In case of funding working capital or without a specific destination every risk with that characteristic shall be aggregated.

Regarding project finance and syndicated financing, BAPOP's participation shall not be higher than 25% of the total amount, in case the transaction is higher than the limit defined for this type of lending.

iii) Limit of participation in the Credit Risk Central (CRC)

The maximum limit for participation in the CRC with a Group/Customer shall be the following:

Group/Customer with risks of over € 500 million - Lower than 10% of CRC.

Group/Customer with risks of over € 250 million - Lower than 15% of CRC.

Group/Customer with risks of over € 100 million - Lower than 25% of CRC.

Group/Customer with risks of over € 20 million - Lower than 50% of CRC.

iv) Limit of risk concentration by activity sector

The maximum limits of concentration of total risk by activity sector are the following:

  • Construction and property development: 25%;
  • Manufacturing and mining industries: 15%;
  • Information and communication, education and other services: 5%;

Remaining sectors: 10% (Agriculture, forestry and fisheries; Energy and water supply; Wholesale and retail trade, repair of motor vehicles; Hotels and restaurants; Transport and storage; Banking and insurance; Administrative, professional sanitary and artistic activities).

v) Limit of risk concentration in large companies

There is a maximum limit of 30% of total risk for the Large Companies segment.

vi) Limit of risk concentration by product

There are also defined limits according to the type of product:

  • Transactions with mortgages on land;
  • Property development;
  • Loans to purchase securities.

vii) Assessment of mortgage collaterals

A set of limits is also defined according to the loan to value (LTV) of lending transactions with mortgage collaterals.

b) Loan write-off policy.

The loan write-off policy determines that write-offs may only be carried out when the loans simultaneously have been non-performing for 2 years and have an impairment level of 100%

c) Impairment reversion policy.

The analysis and subsequent determination of individual impairment of a customer that has shown impairment in previous periods may only result in a reversion in case it is related with the occurrence of an event after the initial recognition (e.g. improvement of the customer's rating or strengthening collaterals).

Additionally, there may be implicit reversions of impairment, resulting from new estimates of collective parameters or changes in the type of customer analysis (individual or collective).

The reversal amount may not be higher than the accumulated impairment amounts previously recorded.

d) Conversion of the debt into debtor's equity.

The Bank does not usually employ this type of solution and solely holds an exposure on an economic group that was subject to this type of loan restructuring. In this case, the loan is replaced by a position comprised of shares from a Restructuring Fund.

These positions are subject to impairment tests every six months from the moment those shares are included in the Restructuring Fund. For junior debt positions maintained in companies held by these Funds a 100% impairment is estimated regarding their respective exposure.

e) Description of restructuring measures applied and their respective associated risks, as well as control and monitoring mechanisms.

The Bank has defined a vast set of restructuring measures, which are negotiated by a large set of Agencies specialising in credit recovery. The most common measures are extending the maturity date of the loan or the inclusion of a grace period.

In terms of characteristics, these restructuring operations are divided into large groups: without overdue credit (with or without strengthening collaterals); and with overdue credit (with or without strengthening collaterals).

The Bank's decision-making body in terms of loan granting shall identify the restructuring operations that result from customers' financial difficulties. These are subsequently classified by the Bank's computer system. Costumers with lending operations that are undergoing a restructuring process are also subject to an internal definition of a loan restrictive classification. Agencies are thus forced to act on this policy, which may imply maintaining, reducing or extinguishing risks.

Regarding monitoring in terms of the loan impairment model, these transactions shall bear the restructuring brand for a two-year healing period pursuant to Instruction No. 32/2013 issued by the Bank of Portugal.

f) Description of the process of assessing and managing collaterals.

For situations in which it is admissible that credit recovery shall occur via foreclosure the amounts that shall be considered (market value of the most recent appraisal known with the application of a temporal haircut) are also defined by internal regulations.

Reappraisals of these collaterals are usually done within the time frames defined by Notices Nos.3/95 and 5/2006 issued by the Bank of Portugal. However, in the case of properties related with transactions done with customers with significant exposures (over 1 million euros), reappraisals are carried out more often.

Despite the pre-defined time frames, appraisals are carried out whenever they are considered relevant to monitor the value of the collateral.

The value of the properties considered as collaterals is adjusted to the current macroeconomic scenario through the application of haircuts, based on Management analysis and market practices.

Regarding financial collaterals and securities, we have defined the periodical monitoring of the lending operations collateralised with this type of assets, and these are regularly reported to Management. Assets used as collateral are indicated, as well as the overall hedging ratio. These amounts are considered in the scope of an individual impairment analysis.

g) Nature of main judgements, estimates and hypotheses used to determine impairment.

Losses due to impairment correspond to estimates based on judgements made by top management in view of the facts and circumstances on a given date. Consequently, future events and developments are expected, in some cases, to converge into a different result vis-à-vis the estimate amount.

In order to ensure the adequacy of the impairment model to the macroeconomic scenario, the Bank carries out monthly impairment reviews of its individually analysed customers, as well as reviewing every six months the parameters applied to the collective part of its credit portfolio.

In terms of the individual analysis, impairment depends on the disbursement capacity of the debtor and/or respective guarantors, or the collaterals the Bank has to guarantee the lending transactions, applying the reference criteria described in Circular Letter 02/2014/DSP issued by the Bank of Portugal.

As far as the collective part of the portfolio is concerned and especially the calculation of LGD estimates, these are calculated based on the history of effective recoveries, as well as on conservative assumptions, defined and approved by Management for future estimates.

h) Description of the methods employed to calculate impairment, including the way portfolios are segmented in order to reflect the different characteristics of the lending operations.

In compliance with the conceptual model on which impairment calculations are based, every month an analysis is carried out to the overall credit portfolio divided into seven main groups: (i) default loans, (ii) loans in arrears (30- 90 days), (iii) restructured loans, (iv) non-performing loans (with impairment signs), (v) healing loans, (vi) healed loans, and (vii) performing loans.

Definition of default

A loan is considered defaulted whenever it shows at least one of the following signs:

  • Loans in arrears for more than 90 days;
  • Customers in insolvency/bankruptcy situations or undergoing a special revitalisation process (PER); or
  • Bank guarantees called in by the beneficiary.

A customer's full exposure is considered defaulted whenever the sum of their transactions in arrears for more than 90 days exceeds 20% of total exposure.

Homogeneous segments result from the creation of transaction groups that have similar credit risks, taking into consideration the Bank's management model. In order to do so, we have defined as relevant segmentation factors some lending transactions characteristics, such as type of customer, materiality of the exposure, type of product and type of associated collateral.

The segmentation currently in force distinguishes between specific PD segmentation and specific LGD segmentation:

PD segmentation LGD segmentation
State and other public bodies
Banco Popular Group
Employees
Corporate Customers
Relevant Customers
Credit cards - Private individuals
Residential mortgage loans with LTV <=80%
Residential Mortgage Ioans Residential mortgage loans with LTV > 80%
Collateralised private individuals
Consumer credit Consumer credit
Non-Collateralised private individuals
Property development
Property construction Collateralised construction loans
Non-collateralised construction loans
Credit cards - Companies
Companies Collateralised companies
Non-collateralised companies

Probability of default (PD) represents the estimate based on the last 5 years of the Bank's history of the number of transactions with or without impairment signs that can default during a given period of time (emerging period). So that the history reflects the current economic conditions, the observations obtained are adjusted through the following risk weights that may be adjusted every six months according to the regular exercise of PD back testing:

Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5
Weight 10% 15% 15% 30% 30%

PD is also differentiated according to the classification of each loan: (i) default loans, (ii) loans in arrears (30- 90 days), (iii) restructured loans, (iv) non-performing loans (with impairment signs), (v) healing loans, (vi) healed loans, and (vii) performing loans.

i) Impairment signs by credit segment

The Bank considers that a loan shows impairment signs when one of the following events occurs.

  • Customers with at least 1 loan of a material amount in arrears for more than 30 days;
  • Customers in litigation;
  • Customers with at least 1 loan of a material amount restructured due to financial difficulties of the customer or perspective/request for restructuring;
  • Customers with at least 1 loan undergoing out of court procedures to regularise their situation (PERSI);
  • Customers with at least 1 loan of material amount in the banking system in arrears, premium and interest cancelled/annulled or in court, according to information made available by the Central for Credit Liabilities of the Bank of Portugal;
  • Customers with loan transactions written-off by BAPOP in the past 12 months;

  • Customers with banking guarantees made by the Bank which have been foreclosed within the past 24 months;

  • Costumers with pledges or assignments to the Bank in the past 24 months;
  • Customers with non-performing operations in other entities of Popular Group;
  • Any other signs that cause a higher probability of defaulting detected in the individual analysis.

j) Limits defined for individual analysis.

On each reporting date a set of customers is selected, who due to the materiality of their exposure to the Bank are considered significant. Those customers are subject to an individual analysis procedure in order to conclude whether there is evidence of impairment or to determine the amount of impairment.

Individual analyses are carried out on:

  • Default customers or customers showing impairment signs with total liabilities of over 750,000 euros;
  • Significant customer portfolio with no impairment signs and total liabilities of over 2,500,000.

At all times, between 25% and 30% of total on-balance sheet loans of BAPOP have to be individually analysed. In case the above-mentioned limits do not allow that percentage to be within that interval they may be adjusted.

Customer lending subject to individual analysis in which no objective evidence of impairment is identified shall be included in homogeneous risk segments in order to be considered for collective impairment.

k) Policy on internal risk levels, specifying the treatment given to a borrower classified as impaired.

Operations that are in arrears for more than 90 days, or in insolvency situations or undergoing a special revitalisation process (PER), or that require more specialised monitoring are regularly migrated to a set of Agencies.

The mission and objectives of that set of agencies are the rigorous analysis, monitoring and management of customers and risks, carried out by Specialised Managers distributed into 3 segments (Private individuals, Corporate, and Large Risks). From a comprehensive vision of the whole recovery process, we try to find and employ the most adequate solutions for a swift credit recovery.

l) General description of the calculation of the current amount of future cash flows when calculating impairment losses assessed individual and collectively.

According to the impairment model used by the Bank, when objective evidence of an event that originated a loss due to impairment is identified, the amount of that loss shall be determined as the difference between the amount on the balance sheet and the present amount of the estimated future cash flows (excluding losses due to events that have not occurred yet), discounted at the original effective interest rate.

Estimated future cash flows included in the calculation regard the contractual amount for the loans, adjusted by any amounts that the Bank expects not to recover and the time frame in which it is foreseeable that those shall be carried out. The time frame for the recovery of cash flows is a very significant variable for the calculation of impairment, since an impairment loss is always recognised, even in the cases in which total recovery of the contractual outstanding cash flows is expected to be

received but after the agreed dates. This situation shall not be verified in case the Bank receives compensation in full (for example, as interest or default interest) for the period in which the loan was overdue.

Estimating an amount and the moment future cash flows shall be recovered for a loan involves professional judgement. The best estimate for those, taking into consideration the guidelines defined on Circular Letter No. 02/2014/DSP, is based on reasonable assumptions and on observable data at the date impairment is assessed, on the capacity of a customer to pay or on the possibility of a foreclose on a collateral.

In the case of collective portfolios, a probability of default (PD) and a rate of loss given default (LGD) are applied to each homogeneous segment.

In the case of defaulted loans, PD is 100% and the balance is established at the moment each loan defaults.

LGD is an estimate of loss given default of a customer. For the calculation of this variable, a random sample of the Bank's history is used, based on a trust interval of 95% regarding every customer that has defaulted. Thus, the average loss is calculated for each segment based on every recovery discounted at the effective rate for the month in which that operation defaulted until maturity date/settlement, as well as possible future estimates for the cases in which operations have not been settled when the analysis is carried out.

Recovery of the loans included in the sample are checked on a case-by-case basis, including:

  • Historical recoveries via payments made by the debtor (recoveries since the date of default until the date of analysis);
  • Historical recoveries via foreclosure, deducted from expenses;
  • Estimates of recoveries after the reference dates used for the analysis;
  • Recoveries after write-off.
  • m) Description of the emerging period(s) used for the different segments and justification of their adequacy.

Emerging periods, which result from internal studies and the estimate of time management in the time frame between the event and default, are the following:

Past-due loans - 30 to 90 days 3
Restructured loans 12
Other signs of default 12
Healing 12
Performing and healed 12

n) Detailed description of the cost associated with credit risk, including disclosure of PD, EAD, LGD and healing rates.

For restructured or healing loans, average PD is determined for each month of the demarcation stage (24 or 12 months respectively); after that time curves are drawn and applied.

In the segments where those time curves do not show correlations that can be considered explanatory, the PD applied during the demarcation stage results from the weighted average by the total number of restructured or healing loans in each segment and in each month (without attributing different weights to moment PD was observed).

Additionally, from a conservative perspective, the minimum point of each curve may never be lower than the PD obtained for performing loans for the same period.

In the following tables, the main points of their respective curves applied to restructured or healing loans are shown as follows:

We would like to stress once more that the project that will allow the Bank to calculate LGD based on the whole portfolio and not simply on a sample is almost complete as mentioned in paragraph (l).

o) Conclusions of the sensitivity analysis to the amount of impairment and changes to the main assumptions

As at 31 December 2015, an increase by 10% in PD would imply an increase by 4 million euros in the total amount of impairment. A similar increase in LGD would imply an increase by 18.3 million euros.

An increase by 10% in both variables would imply a 22.7 million euro increase in the total amount of impairment.

p) Qualitative disclosures of Popular Factoring, S.A.

The impairment model used by Popular Factoring, S.A., in view of the specificity of its business and the fact that it had been an independent legal person until now, is not based on the same methodology that regulates Banco Popular, S.A., although it achieved results that are very close to those that Popular Factoring, S.A., has historically showed. In this scope, Banco Popular Portugal, S.A., after the merger project with that company, which is now under way, will homogenize data.

In this note, we present a brief description of the model that exists in the consolidated company and its main impact on the reference values of Banco Popular, S.A., which we consider of little significance. For this reason, in this interim report, the tables in the quantitative disclosures, in face of the size and complexity of the factoring business inside the consolidated portfolio, will be presented only when materially relevant.

The impairment of the credit portfolio of Popular Factoring, S.A., is calculated with reference to the bases, reasonability, results, and experience, given the reality of the company and the type of product that factoring represents. The company has a calculation model that intends to be reliable and timely, and corresponds to an impairment model.

The model developed by Popular Factoring, S.A., is based on three major areas: I-Seniority; II-Internal credit rating; and III-Subjective analysis.

Seniority is measured from the maturity date of two invoices granted. The greater the seniority, the larger the weight for the constitution of impairment.

The internal credit rating of the customers (the internal classification of the customer based on the notation defined by the company) contributes to calculate impairment, combined with the remaining available information on customers and adherents.

The model is based on an internal credit rating of its customers, whose classification varies from 1 (excellent risk) to 5 (high risk). This system is based on two aspects, incorporating the specific risk of the operation/customer portfolio and the company risk, obtained through the points that result from the analysis of the updated financial information on the companies. The higher the rating, the higher the impairment.

Finally, impairment is defined and calculated based on a subjective credit analysis.
