(1) Some indicators are presented according t o management criteria o f the Group, which concepts are described and detailed at the glossary and at "Alternative Performance M easures" chapter, being reconciled with the accounting values published in the consolidated financial statements. From 31M ay 2019, financial statements of the Group reflect the consolidation of Euro Bank S.A., the entity acquired by Bank M illennium S.A..

In 2018, the impact was also negative, in the amonut o f 29.4 million euros, mainly related t o restructuring costs, recognized as staff costs in the activity in Portugal. In the profitability and efficiency indicators o f 2019, the specific items included in the net operating revenues, o f non material amount, related t o costs with the acquisition, merger and integration o f Euro Bank S.A., recognized in the Polish subsidiary are also not considered.
(4) A s o f 31December 2019 and 31December 2018, ratios include the positive cumulative net income o f each period. Ratios as o f 31December 2019 are estimated and non-audited.
(5) Of which, in Poland: 8,615 employees as at 31December 2019 (corresponding t o 8,464 FTE - Full-time equivalent) and 6,270 employees as at 31December 2018 (corresponding to 6,132 FTE - Full-time equivalent).
In the context of the entry into force, on 1 January 2018, of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and the consequent impact on the structure of the Millennium bcp financial statements compared to prior periods, some indicators were defined according to management criteria aiming to help the comparability with financial information then presented. Following the guidelines on Alternative Performance Measures published by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), the relevant indicators that allow a full understanding of the evolution of the Group's economic and financial position are detailed at the end of this document, being reconciled with the accounting values published in the consolidated financial statements.
The Group has ceased to apply IAS 29 – Financial reporting in hyperinflationary economies to the financial statements of Banco Millennium Atlântico with effect from 1 January 2019, since Angola no longer meets the requirements to be considered a hyperinflationary economy. From the beginning of 2019, the financial statements of Banco Millennium Atlântico considered for the purpose of integration into the Group's accounts started to consider the amortization of the impact arising from the updating of the balance sheet value of non-monetary assets and liabilities until the end of their lifespan.
On 1 January 2019, the IFRS 16 - Leases entered into force, replacing IAS 17 - Leases and establishing the new requirements regarding the scope, classification, recognition and measurement of leases. The Group applied the principles set out in this standard retrospectively with the impacts of the transition being recognized on 1 January 2019. In what concerns the income statement, the adoption of IFRS 16 led to changes in amortizations and depreciations, other administrative costs and net interest income, but on a net basis, the amounts recorded are not material.
In May 2019, Bank Millennium, SA, a subsidiary owned 50.1% by Banco Comercial Português, S.A., has completed the acquisition of 99.787% stake in Euro Bank S.A. from SG Financial Services Holdings, a subsidiary fully held by Société Générale, S.A.. On the settlement date of the transaction, the acquisition method set out in IFRS 3 - Business Combinations establishes that the acquired assets and the liabilities assumed shall be recognized based on their fair value at the acquisition date. It should be noted that, at this stage, the settlement process is not yet concluded and may result in additional adjustments to the purchase price. In accordance with IFRS 3, the effective settlement will be completed no later than one year from the control acquisition date which occurred on 31 May 2019. From this date, financial statements of the Group reflect the consolidation of Euro Bank S.A..
In 2019, the consolidated net income of Millennium bcp achieved 302.0 million euros. Excluding specific items, net income totalled 369.1 million euros, showing an increase of 11.7% compared to the 330.5 million euros posted in 2018.
The net income of 2019 includes the negative impact of 66.4 million euros considered as specific items, related to restructuring costs and compensation for temporary salary cuts recognized in the activity in Portugal and the costs related to acquisition, merger and integration of Euro Bank S.A., recognized by the Polish subsidiary. In 2018, the also negative impact of specific items, totalled 29.4 million euros, related to restructuring costs and the ongoing digital transformation project, both in the activity in Portugal.
In the activity in Portugal*, net income of 2019 achieved 144.8 million euros, showing an increase of 25.4% compared to 115.5 million euros accounted in 2018, strongly influenced by the significant decrease in provisioning needs, especially in credit, also benefiting, albeit less significantly, from the increase in net trading income. This favorable evolution of net income in the activity in Portugal was offset by the increase in operating costs and fiscal impact essentially associated with the interest rate scenario.
* Not considering income arising from operations accounted as discontinued operations, amounting to 13.4 million euros in 2019 and a negative amount of 1.3 million euros in 2018.
In the international activity, net income totalled 143.8 million euros in 2019. Excluding specific items, related to the previously mentioned acquisition, merger and integration of Euro Bank S.A., core net income of international activity grew 15.3%, from 443.1 million euros in 2018 to 510.8 million euros in 2019, benefiting from a very positive evolution in core income, mostly in net interest income, which largely surpassed the increase in operating costs.
The performance of international activity, in 2019, was determined by the lower contribution of the Polish operation, affected by the impact resulting from the costs associated with the integration of Euro Bank S.A.. The integration of Euro Bank S.A. led, on the one hand, to a higher level of operating costs, and, on the other hand, to the increase in loan impairments as a result of additional impairments at the time of the initial recognition of the loan portfolio of the operation, acquired in May 2019. Additionally, the contribution of the Bank Millennium Group was also influenced by an extraordinary provision booked for claims related to mortgage loans granted in Swiss francs. The appropriation of the results of Banco Millennium Atlântico, in 2019, also proved to be lower than the amount determined in the previous year, influenced, both by the increased risk coverage by impairment and provisions, and the impact associated with the end of the application of IAS 29.
At the same time, the gain of 13.5 million euros, resulting from the sale of the Planfipsa Group in February 2019, reflected as discontinued operations, contributed positively to the good performance showed by the Group.
In the evolution of the consolidated net income of the Group, we should highlight the growth of net interest income and of net trading income on the one hand, and the reduction of loans impairment on the other, despite the increase in operating costs and the income tax impact caused by low rates scenario in 2019.
Net interest income showed a favorable evolution, by increasing 8.8% compared to the 1,423.6 million euros recorded in 2018, reaching 1,548.5 million euros in 2019. This evolution was determined by the good performance of the international activity, namely by the dynamics of the Polish operation, partially offset by the performance of the activity in Portugal.
In the activity in Portugal, net interest income totalled 789.2 million euros in 2019, that compares to 803.3 million euros recorded in the previous year. Although the evolution of net interest income in the activity in Portugal benefited from the reduction in the cost of funding, this positive effect was not enough to offset the decrease resulting from the lower yield generated by the securities portfolio and by the loan portfolio.
In the international activity, net interest income showed a very favorable behavior, increasing 22.4% compared to the 620.3 million euros recorded in 2018, achieving 759.3 million euros in 2019. This evolution was mainly driven by the Polish subsidiary, where growth in net interest income resulted, on the one hand, from the strong organic growth, and on the other, from the integration of the commercial business of Euro Bank S.A..
In 2019, net interest margin of the Group remained in line with the rate obtained in the previous year, standing at 2.2%. Net interest margin in Portugal, although under pressure due to the negative interest rates, remained at 1.7% at the end of the year, reflecting only a slight decrease compared to the 1.8% posted in the previous year. In the international activity, net interest rate increased from 3.1% in 2018 to 3.2% in 2019, benefiting from the effect of the acquisition of Euro Bank S.A. from May 2019.

Dividends from equity instruments, which comprise dividends received from investments classified as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income and as financial assets held for trading, together with equity accounted earnings, totalled 43.8 million euros in 2019, compared to 89.8 million euros in the previous year, conditioned by the lower contribution of equity accounted earnings from both the activity in Portugal and the international activity.
In the activity in Portugal, the evolution of equity accounted earnings, from 55.1 million euros in 2018 to 40.5 million euros in 2019, was determined by the 6.9 million euros reduction from the results generated by the participation in Millennium Ageas, essentially reflecting the negative impact from the scenario of lower interest rates recognized in June. The results generated by stake held in SIBS and Unicre also contributed to the decrease, since together showed a reduction of 6.2 million euros in the same period.
The evolution of equity accounted earnings in the international activity was due to the lower appropriation of the results generated by Banco Millennium Atlântico, that stood at 2.5 million euros compared to 34.1 million euros posted in the previous year. This reduction was justified both by the impact of increased risk coverage by impairment and provisions in the results of Banco Millennium Atlântico and by the effect associated with the end of the application of IAS 29, with effect from 1 January 2019.
In 2019, net commissions achieved 703.5 million euros, showing a growth of 2.8% compared to 684.0 million euros recorded in the previous year, benefiting from the good performance of both the activity in Portugal and the international activity.
In consolidated terms, it is worth noting the favorable evolution of banking-related commissions, which increased 5.9% from the 564.7 million euros recorded in 2018, reaching 597.8 million euros in 2019.
This increase reflected the performance observed both in the activity in Portugal and in the international activity, with growth rates of 5.0% and 8.3%, respectively.
In the activity in Portugal, net commissions reached 483.2 million euros in 2019, representing an increase of 1.7% compared to the 475.2 million euros recorded in 2018, determined by the favorable behavior of banking commissions, which grew by 20.4 million euros. In the same period, market related commissions decreased by 12.4 million euros, influenced by the impact of the actual market context in this type of commissions.
In the international activity, net commissions grew 5.5% compared to 208.8 million euros recorded in 2018, reaching 220.3 million euros in 2019, mainly due to the performance of the Polish subsidiary, influenced by the impact of the acquisition of Euro Bank S.A., but also, albeit on a smaller scale, due to the greater contribution of subsidiaries in Mozambique and Switzerland.
In 2019, net trading income amounted to 143.3 million euros, showing a very considerable growth of 82.5% compared to the 78.5 million euros recorded in 2018, which reflects both the performance of the activity in Portugal, and the international activity, in this case, specifically of Poland and Mozambique.
The growth of net trading income, in the activity in Portugal, was boosted by the gains recognized with the sale of Portuguese public debt securities that amounted to 69.4 million euros in 2019, compared to 14.9 million euros recorded in the previous year. It should also be noted that, despite the pace of NPE reduction during 2019, the level of costs incurred with sales of this type of exposures was lower than the one recognized in the previous year, as it totalled 29.1 million euros, compared to the 49.4 million euros accounted in 2018.
In the international activity, net trading income was mainly influenced by the evolution of the Polish subsidiary, boosted by the gain, in the amount of 10.5 million euros, recognized from the revaluation of PSP - Polish Payment Standard shares following the agreement for the entry of Mastercard in the capital of that entity. In the operation in Mozambique, net trading income was also higher than in the previous year, mainly from gains generated by foreign exchange operations.
Other net operating income, which, among others, includes the costs associated with mandatory contributions as well as with the resolution and the deposit guarantee funds, totalled a negative amount of 100.7 million euros in 2019*, that compares to an also negative amount of 89.5 million euros recorded in the previous year, due to the performance shown by the international activity, despite the improvement in the activity in Portugal compared to the previous year.
In the activity in Portugal, other net operating income showed a favourable evolution from the negative 32.3 million euros recognized in 2018 to an also negative amount of 30.2 million euros in 2019, with an emphasis, with a positive effect, the increase in results from the sale of other assets and the lower losses recognized with the sale of investment properties and, with a negative effect, the reduction in gains associated with the sale of financial holdings and noncurrent assets held for sale. Costs incurred with the mandatory contributions totalled 66.6 million euros in 2019, remaining in line with the amount recorded in 2018.
In the international activity, other net operating income, including the abovementioned specific items, stood at a negative amount of 70.5 million euros in 2019, compared to the also negative amount of 57.2 million euros recorded in 2018, penalized by the increase in mandatory contributions supported by the Polish subsidiary, which stood at 15.2 million euros above the amount accounted in the previous year.
*In 2019, included 0.8 million euros of costs related to acquisition, merger and integration of Euro Bank S.A., recognized by the Polish subsidiary and considered specific items.

Operating costs, excluding the effect of specific items* , totalled 1,103.1 million euros in 2019, recording an increase of 10.6% compared to 997.8 million euros accounted in the previous year. This evolution results, mostly, from the increase in the international activity, but also, albeit in a smaller scale, from the activity in Portugal.
In the activity in Portugal, operating costs, not considering the effect of the specific items abovementioned, totalled 634.2 million euros in 2019, standing 3.7% above the 611.8 million euros accounted in the previous year, mainly reflecting the increase in staff costs. The entry into force on 1 January 2019 of IFRS 16 - Leases largely justified the offsetting changes in other administrative costs, which decreased by 22.2 million euros from 2018, and depreciations, which grew 32.6 million euros in the same period.
In the international activity, operating costs, excluding the effect of specific items, stood at 468.9 million euros in 2019, showing an increase of 21.5% compared to the 386.0 million euros recorded in the previous year, that mainly reflects the performance of the Polish subsidiary, justified at the same time by the impact resulting from the consolidation of Euro Bank S.A. and by the organic growth of the subsidiary itself, boosted by the greater dynamism of prices and wages in the Polish economy.
* Negative impact of 66.4 million euros in 2019, of which 40.1 million euros related to restructuring costs and compensation for temporary salary cuts, both recognized as staff costs in the activity in Portugal and 26.3 million euros related to acquisition, merger and integration of Euro Bank S.A., recognized by the Polish subsidiary, mainly as other administrative costs. In 2018, there was also a negative impact of 29.4 million euros, mainly related to restructuring costs, recognized as staff costs in the activity in Portugal.
Staff costs, not considering the effect of specific items, recognized almost entirely in the domestic activity, totalled 628.1 million euros in 2019, reflecting an increase of 11.0% compared to 566.1 million euros in 2018, mainly due to the evolution in the international activity. In the activity in Portugal, staff costs were also higher than those recorded in the previous year.
In the activity in Portugal, staff costs stood at 371.3 million euros in 2019, growing 3.3% compared to 359.3 million euros in 2018. These figures do not consider the impact of specific items, which amounted to 40.1 million euros in 2019 related to restructuring costs and compensation for the temporary salary cuts. In 2018, specific items totalled 26.7 million euros, related to restructuring costs including, among others, costs accounted with early retirements.
The growth in staff costs in the activity in Portugal reflects, partially, the increase in the number of employees, from 7,095 at the end of December 2018 to 7,204 employees on 31 December 2019, showing the impact of the internalization of outsourcers and the reinforcement of the necessary skills for the implementation of the ongoing digital transformation project.
In the international activity, not considering the impact, in this case insignificant, of the specific items, staf costs stood at 256.8 million euros in 2019, increasing 24.2% compared to the 206.8 million euros recognized in the previous year, mainly due to the performance of the Polish subsidiary, conditioned by the growth in the number of employees that increased from 6,270 (6,132 FTE - full-time equivalent) on 31 December 2018 to 8,615 employees (8,464 FTE - full-time equivalent) at the end of 2019. This increase was mainly due to the inclusion of 2,425 employees, coming from Euro Bank S.A., in May 2019.
The total number of employees in the international activity increased from 8,972 as at 31 December 2018 to 11,381 employees at the end of 2019.
Other administrative costs showed a drop of 6.3% compared to the 374.0 million euros recorded in 2018, totalling 350.4 million euros in 2019. This evolution reflects the impact of the entry into force on 1 January 2019, of IFRS 16 - Leases, both in activity in Portugal and in the international activity and does not consider the effect of specific items, in the amount of 26.0 million euros, related to costs incurred with the acquisition, merger and integration of Euro Bank S.A., recognized by the Polish subsidiary in 2019 and 2.7 million euros associated with the ongoing digital transformation project recognized in 2018 in the activity in Portugal.
In the activity in Portugal, other administrative costs stood at 194.0 million euros in 2019, down 10.3% compared to the 216.2 million euros (excluding specific items) accounted in the previous year, mostly explained by the aforementioned impact of IFRS 16 - Leases. The resizing of distribution network, which went from 546 on 31 December 2018 to 505 at the end of 2019, together with the disciplined management of recurrent costs that has been followed, allowed savings in items such as advertising, legal expenses and communications, among others with less expression, despite the increase essentially in costs associated with the strengthening of control functions.
In the international activity other administrative costs, not considering the impact of specific items in the amount of 26.0 million euros, directly related to the acquisition, merger and integration of Euro Bank S.A., stood at 156.5 million euros in 2019, slightly below the 157.9 million euros posted in the previous year, benefiting largely from the favorable impact of the entry into force of IFRS 16 - Leases. Excluding this impact, other administrative costs were higher than in the previous year, both at the subsidiary in Mozambique and at the Polish subsidiary, the latter essencially reflecting the impact of the acquisition of Euro Bank S.A.. The acquisition of Euro Bank S.A. also influenced the number of branches of the international activity, which increased from 555 at the end of 2018 to 1,031 on 31 December 2019, with the organic growth of the subsidiary in Poland being responsible for the increase of 10 branches and the subsidiary in Mozambique registering an additional 7 branches compared to the end of 2018.
Depreciations, excluding specific items recognized by Bank Millennium, S.A. in the scope of the acquisition of Euro Bank S.A., which in this case are not significant, totalled 124.6 million euros in 2019, more than doubling compared to the 57.7 million euros recorded in the previous year. This evolution was enhanced by the impact of the entry into force, on 1 January 2019, of IFRS 16 - Leases, both in the activity in Portugal and in the international activity.
In the activity in Portugal, depreciations amounted to 68.9 million euros in 2019, which compares to 36.4 million euros recorded in 2018, mainly reflecting the impact of IFRS 16 - Leases. Excluding this impact, the growth in depreciations was determined by the increase in investment related to software and IT equipment, reflecting the commitment of the Bank to technological innovation and the ongoing digital transformation. On the contrary, depreciations related to real estate fell, compared to the previous year.
In the international activity, depreciations totalled 55.7 million euros in 2019, with the increase of 34.3 million euros compared to the 21.4 million euros recognized in 2018, being mostly justified by the impact of IFRS 16 - Leases. Excluding this impact, the main increases in depreciations in the international activity, compared to the previous year, are also justified by the commitment of international operations to digital transformation and technological innovation, both in the Polish subsidiary and in the subsidiary in Mozambique. It should be noted that the evolution observed in the Polish subsidiary also reflects the impact of the acquisition of Euro Bank S.A..

Impairment for loan losses (net of recoveries) stood at 390.2 million euros in 2019, maintaining the favorable evolution of the recent years, showing a reduction of 16.0% compared to the 464.6 million euros posted in 2018, which resulted from the contribution of the activity in Portugal, which was partially offset by the increase in impairment for loan losses (net of recoveries) in the international activity.
In the activity in Portugal, the downward trend in impairment for loan losses, resulted in a 28.3% reduction compared to the 389.3 million euros accounted in 2018, totalling 279.2 million euros in 2019. In this evolution, it is worth noting the sharp pace of NPE reduction during the year.
In the international activity, loans impairment (net of recoveries) showed an increase of 47.2% from the 75.4 million euros recorded in 2018, standing at 111.0 million euros in 2019. This evolution was determined by the performance of the Polish subsidiary, affected by the impact of the acquisition of Euro Bank S.A., which includes the impairment for credit performing mandatorily booked upon the initial recognition of the acquired portfolio, as per the applicable accounting standard. On the other hand, the operation in Mozambique partially offset this impact, with a lower level of impairment compared to 2018.
The cost of risk of the Group, including the impact of the acquisition of Euro Bank S.A., stood at 72 basis points in 2019, compared to 92 base points in the previous year, confirming its trend of gradual decline.
In 2019, other impairment and provisions totalled 151.4 million euros, 11.0% higher than the 136.5 million euros recognized in 2018. This evolution results from two opposite effects, since the good performance of the activity in Portugal was completely absorbed by the higher provisioning needs in the international activity.
In the activity in Portugal, other impairment and provisions stood 30.0 million euros below the 121.9 million euros accounted in 2018, standing at 91.9 million euros in 2019, determined by the lower needs for provisions, mainly for guarantees and other commitments, despite the reinforcement of impairments for non-current assets held for sale, compared to the amounts recognized in 2018.
In the international activity, other impairment and provisions amounted to 59.6 million euros in 2019, showing an increase of 45.0 million euros compared to the 14.6 million euros recognized in 2018. The amount posted in 2019 includes the booking of an extraordinary provision to mortgage loans granted in Swiss francs, by the Polish subsidiary, in the amount of 51.9 million euros. In addition to this provision, the accounts of the Polish subsidiary were also penalized by the booking of a provision to cover the reimbursement of commissions charged to its customers, following a decision taken by the European Court of Justice. The evolution of other impairment and provisions was also influenced by the amount of impairment for the investment in Banco Millennium Atlântico, which had been recognized in 2018, following the application of IAS29.
Income tax (current and deferred) amounted to 239.3 million euros in 2019, which compares to 138.0 million euros obtained in the previous year.
The recognized taxes include, in 2019, current tax of 100.9 million euros (105.6 million euros in 2018) and deferred tax of 138.4 million euros (32.5 million euros in 2018).
The increase in deferred tax expense in 2019 versus 2018, resulted primarily from the write-off of deferred tax assets, due to the scenario of persistent low interest rates, and to the actuarial losses from the pension fund.
Total assets of the consolidated balance sheet of Millennium bcp stood at 81,643 million euros as at 31 December 2019, showing an 7.5% increase from 75,923 million euros recorded at the end of 2018, due to the performance of both the activity in Portugal, and mainly the international activity, namely in what respect the Polish subsidiary.
The growth in total assets of the operation in Poland, as compared to 31 December 2018, was necessarily influenced by the impact of the acquisition of Euro Bank S.A., which was mainly felt in the loan portfolio, although it also benefited from the organic growth of the business generated by Bank Millennium.
In the activity in Portugal, the main increases in total assets in 2019, compared to the end of 2018, were in cash at Central Banks. Other assets and loan portfolio also evolved favorably, showing, however, less expressive increases. In the same period there was a reduction in the securities portfolio, namely in public debt, and in the real estate properties received as payment portfolio.
Consolidated loans to customers (gross) of Millennium bcp, as defined in the glossary stood at 54,724 million euros as at 31 December 2019, up 7.2% from 51,032 million euros at the end of the previous year, determined by the evolution of international activity, which was driven by the impact of the acquisition of Euro Bank S.A. by the Polish subsidiary.
In the activity in Portugal, loans to customers (gross) stood at 36,715 million euros as at 31 December 2019, 1.3% below the 37,187 million euros at the end of 2018. It should be noted that this evolution was determined by the reduction of 1,551 million euros in NPE, which went from 4,797 million euros as at 31 December 2018, to 3,246 million euros at the end of 2019, reflecting the divestment strategy in this type of assets implemented by the Bank in recent years. On the contrary, the good performance of the performing loan portfolio, which grew by 1,078 million euros in the same period, should be noted.
In the international activity, there was an increase of 30.1% in loans to customers (gross) compared to the 13,845 million euros as at 31 December 2018, reaching 18,009 million euros at the end of 2019, due to the performance of the Polish operation, which reflects not only the impact of the acquisition of Euro Bank S.A., but also the recurring activity of the subsidiary.
Consolidated loans to customers (gross) maintained a balanced level of diversification, with the relative weight of loans to individuals in the total portfolio slightly increasing, from 54.5% at the end of 2018 to 58.3% as at 31 December 2019. The weight of loans to companies stood at 41.7% at the end of 2019, compared to the 45.5% recorded as at 31 December 2018.
The quality of the credit portfolio has benefited from the focus on selectivity and monitoring of credit risk control processes and initiatives carried out by the commercial and credit recovery areas, in order to recover exposures in default, over the recent years.
The improvement in the quality of the loan portfolio can be seen through the favorable evolution of the respective indicators, highlighting the NPE ratio as a percentage of the total loan portfolio, which declined from 10.9% at the end of 2018 to 7.7% as at 31 December 2019, essentially reflecting the performance of the domestic loan portfolio, with NPE ratio showing a reduction from 12.9% to 8.8%.
At the same time, it should also be noted the generalized increase in the coverage by impairments, namely the reinforcement in the coverage of NPE by impairment, which, increased from 52.4% on 31 December 2018 to 58.2% at the end of 2019. In the activity in Portugal, the favorable evolution of this indicator was even more significant, as coverage of NPE by impairment stood at 57.8% as at 31 December 2019, compared to 49.7% at the end of the previous year.

Total customer funds, as at 31 December 2019, amounted to 81,675 million euros, showing a very favorable evolution, by increasing 10.3% from the 74,023 million euros obtained on the same date of the previous year. This increase, in the amount of 7,652 million euros, was possible thanks to the good performance of both the activity in Portugal and the international activity, which grew by 3,506 million euros and 4,146 million euros respectively. The evolution of total customer funds, in consolidated terms, reflects the good performance recorded in all items, with emphasis on the increase in balance sheet customer funds and more specifically in deposits and other resources from customers, which grew 5,599 million euros, compared to the amount posted on 31 December 2018.
In the activity in Portugal, total customer funds also benefited from the good evolution recorded in all items, reaching 56,767 million euros on 31 December 2019, which compares to 53,261 million euros recorded on the same date of the previous year, highlighting the increase of 1,724 million euros in deposits and other resources from customers in the same period.
In the international activity, total customer funds grew by 20.0% compared to 20,763 million euros recorded on 31 December 2018, reaching 24,909 million euros at the end of 2019. This evolution stemmed from the increase in deposits and other resources from customers of the Polish subsidiary, which resulted not only from the impact of the acquisition of Euro Bank S.A., but also from the current activity of the subsidiary itself.
On 31 December 2019, balance sheet customer funds represented 77% of total customer funds, with deposits and other resources from customers representing 74% of total customer funds.
The loans to deposits ratio, in accordance with the Bank of Portugal's Instruction no. 16/2004, stood at 86% on 31 December 2019, with the same ratio, considering on-balance sheet customers' funds, standing at 83%. Both ratios show values in line with those obtained on 31 December 2018 (87% and 85%, respectively).

The securities portfolio, as defined in the glossary, amounted to 15,671 million euros, on 31 December 2019, which compares to 16,380 million euros on the same date of the previous year, now representing 19.2% of total assets compared to 21.6% at the end of 2018. The performance of the Group's securities portfolio was determined by the reduction showed by the portfolio of the activity in Portugal, largely due to the sale of Portuguese sovereign debt securities.
The Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR), on a consolidated basis, stood at 216% at the end of December 2019, comfortably above the minimum requirement of 100%, supported by highly liquid asset portfolios in an amount compatible with the prudent management of the Group's short-term liquidity, remaining at identical coverage levels compared to the same date of the previous year (218%).
At the same time, the Group has a strong and stable financing base, characterized by the large share of customer deposits in the funding structure, collateralized financing and medium and long-term instruments, which enabled the stable financing ratio (Net Stable Funding Ratio or NSFR) as at 31 December 2019 to stand at 135% (133% as at 31 December 2018).
In 2019, net wholesale financing needs decreased by 2.3 billion euros in 2019 in consolidated terms, attributable to a decrease of 2.7 billion euros in the Portuguese operation and an increase of 393 million euros in Bank Millennium, in this case mainly as a result of the acquisition of Euro Bank S.A.. In Portugal, the change was due, by decreasing order of materiality, to the reductions in the commercial gap and investments in sovereign debt, cash flow from operations, sale of other assets and reduction of the corporate securities portfolio.
From a funding structure perspective, the reduction in the liquidity needs of the operation in Portugal was carried out through decreases in the use to net funding from the ECB (2.4 billion euros, to 283 million euros) and money market instruments (1.25 billion euros, split between interbank market and repos, in this case to a zero balance) against a reinforcement totalling 850 million euros of its medium-term component eligible for MREL, already foreseen in the Group Liquidity Plan to 2019. Thus, in January BCP placed an issue of Additional Tier 1 worth 400 million euros and returned to the market in September with a new issue of 450 million euros of subordinated debt securities eligible as Tier 2, with the operation placed on a very diverse set of European institutional investors. Bank Millennium, in turn, issued 830 million zlotys subordinated bonds to strengthen its financial structure for the acquisition of Euro Bank S.A., also assuming long-term liabilities originating in that entity in the amount of 878 million zlotys. The overall amount of debt placed on the market by the Group amounts to 2.6 billion euros at the end of 2019. The medium-long-term funding component was further strengthened by an increase of 131 million euros of the balance of loan agreements, to 1.9 billion euros, split between Bank Millennium (89 million euros) and BCP (42 million euros).
The value of collateralized borrowings with the ECB remained at 4.0 billion euros, corresponding to the balance of targeted longer-term refinancing operations, called TLTRO, which will mature in 2020. Net debt with the ECB, which deducts from the value of the gross borrowings the liquidity deposited with the Bank of Portugal and other liquidity denominated in euros in excess of the minimum cash reserves, reached the lowest value since the Bank borrows from the central bank at 283 million euros, a reduction of 2.4 billion euros over the previous year. The evolution of the central bank's liquidity buffers held by the three main operations of the Group showed a favorable evolution throughout 2019, assuming in any case a very comfortable dimension in relation to total customer deposits, an indicator internally used by the Group to assess the resilience of the liquidity buffer to a scenario of financial stress.
In Portugal, the combined evolution of central bank liquidity investments and the portfolio of eligible assets with the ECB has substantially increased the Eurosystem's liquidity buffer by 2.5 billion euros, to16.8 billion euros.
Although Bank Millennium's liquidity buffer with the Central Bank of Poland was reduced by 1.1 billion euros at the end of May, to pay for the acquisition of Euro Bank S.A., the balance at the end of 2019 was similar to that observed one year earlier (5.1 billion euros).
Throughout 2019, Millennium bim maintained a strong liquidity position, with the central bank buffer increasing at year end by 79 million euros versus 2018, to a total of 800 million euros.
On a consolidated basis and considering the implementation of the 2020 Liquidity Plan issuance plan, future refinancing needs will remain at low materiality levels over the next five years, save for the reimbursement of a 1 billion euro covered bond issuance, which at maturity will release pledged collateral for discount with the ECB, thus having a minor loss of liquidity.

The estimated Core Equity Tier 1 ratio as at 31 December 2019 stood at 12.2% both phased-in and fully-implemented, +18 and +21 basis points, respectively, compared to the 12.1% phased-in ratio and 12.0% fully-implemented ratio recorded in the same date of 2018, above the minimum ratios defined on the scope of SREP (Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process) for the year 2019 (phased-in: CET1 9.625%, T1 11.125% and Total 13.125%).
The CET1 fully-implemented ratio favorable evolution was mainly determined by the organic generation of capital, despite the impacts of the acquisition of Euro Bank S.A. by Bank Millennium in Poland, that took place in May 2019 and the reduction of the pension fund's discount rate, in June and December 2019 (from 2.1% to 1.6% and from 1.6% to 1.4%, respectively), as a consequence of the decrease in interest rate. Additionally, the Tier 1 Ratio and the Total Ratio benefited from the Additional Tier 1 placement of 400 million euros by Banco Comercial Português, S.A., with the favorable evolution of the Total Ratio also being explained by the impact of the Tier 2 placement carried out by the Polish subsidiary in January 2019 and by Banco Comercial Português, S.A in September 2019, amounting to 830 million zlotys and 450 million euros, respectively.

In 2019, Millennium bcp continued to implement its Strategic Plan 2018-2021. Highlights during this period include, in chronological order:
New issue of medium term subordinated notes in the amount of 450 million euros, with a tenor of 10.5 years, with the option of early redemption by the Bank at the end of 5.5 year, and an annual interest rate of 3.871 per cent. during the first 5.5 years (corresponding to a spread of 4.231 per cent over the 5.5 year mid-swap rate), being part of the Millennium bcp's strategy of optimizing its capital structure and of reinforcing its presence in the international capital markets;
Long-term issuer rating was affirmed by S&P at BB and the outlook was revised to positive from stable on 10 October 2019;

According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in 2019 the world's economy should have slowed down significantly (from 3.6% to 2.9%) in result of disturbances in the external trade, the intensification of geopolitical tensions and the loss of vigour of some important emerging markets. For 2020, the IMF envisages a scenario of recovery of the global economic activity, which is nevertheless subject to downward risks related to, namely, the worsening of the international political landscape.
The evolution of the financial markets in 2019 was decisively influenced by the unexpected reversion of the trend of normalisation of the global monetary policy, especially in the USA, where the process of rising interest rates was more advanced. In effect, the decision by the Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank (ECB) to reduce their respective key rates and to reopen the programs of debt securities purchases led to a substantial appreciation of most of the asset classes, including equities, sovereign and corporate bonds and gold. In the foreign exchange front, it was observed a pattern of relative stability among the currencies of the developed countries alongside a generalized depreciation of emerging market currencies.
The weakening of global economic growth and the intensification of the accommodative stance of the monetary policy of the main central banks triggered a widespread movement of falling interest rates throughout 2019. In the euro area, the reduction of the ECB's deposit rate to even more negative values favoured the persistence of the whole Euribor curve below the zero level. In this respect, the introduction of a system of tiering in the remuneration of banks' deposits at the ECB proved to have only a moderate impact in upholding the Euro's short-term interest rates. In this environment, the good performance of Portugal's economy in terms of growth and fiscal consolidation led to a very expressive compression of its sovereign bonds' yields.
In the first nine months of 2019, the Portuguese economy grew 2.0%, which came above the expectations of a more moderate expansion pace amid the global economic slowdown, particularly in Germany. The evolution of the Portuguese economy benefited from the dynamism of private consumption, in an environment of improving labour market conditions, and from the acceleration of fixed investment, which was spurred by the construction sector. This favourable performance of the domestic demand contrasted with the deceleration of exports. The improvement of the economic situation together with the reduction of the funding costs of the Republic of Portugal have been contributing to strengthen the process of consolidation of the public finances. In 2019 the overall fiscal balance is likely to have been very close to zero and the public debt ratio, which in 2014 reached an historical high of 132.9% of GDP, should have retraced to values below 120% of GDP. However, in terms of the external accounts, the weakening of export growth probably translated into a negative current account balance, after six years of consecutive surpluses. For 2020, the European Commission (EC) forecasts a slight deceleration of the Portuguese GDP (from 2.0% to 1.7%), in a context of a stabilising domestic demand, following the elevated levels of growth witnessed in the previous years, and the significant uncertainty regarding the evolution of the world's economy.
In Poland, GDP grew 4.0% in 2019, bolstered by private consumption, which has been benefiting from fiscal stimulus measures and the improvement of the labour market, with real wages rising at an annual pace around 6%. In contrast, investment and exports have been denoting an increasing moderation. In 2020 as the effects of the fiscal policy fade and the labour market stabilises it is likely that GDP starts to show growth rates closer to 3%, according to the forecast of the EC. Notwithstanding the quite strong performance of economic activity, the Zloty depreciated in the year as a whole, reflecting the rise of the volatility levels in the international financial markets, particularly in the second half of the year.
The IMF forecasts a recovery of economic activity in Mozambique in 2020, stimulated by the on-going reconstruction process following the hurricanes that hit the country in March 2019 and also by the activity related to the exploration of gas. During 2019, the Metical stood relatively stable against the Euro, with its value oscillating around 70 Metical per Euro. In Angola, despite the important set of economic reforms that have been being implemented under the IMF's assistance program, the economic situation remained fragile. In this context, in 2019 the Kwanza depreciated against the major international currencies, having fallen 40% vis-a-vis the Euro.

The BCP Group prepares financial information in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) endorsed by European Union. As a complement to that information, the BCP Group uses a set of alternative performance measures that allow monitoring the evolution of its activity over the time. Following the guidelines on Alternative Performance Measures issued by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) on October 2015 (ESMA/2015/1415), the BCP Group presents some indicators related to the assessment of profitability and efficiency and the quality of the credit portfolio, among others, which are intended to facilitate comprehension of the evolution of the economic and financial position of the Group. The information presented in this context has not been audited and does not, under any circumstance, replace the financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS. It should also be noted that the definitions and concepts used by the BCP Group for the calculation of these indicators may differ from those used by other entities in the determination of other similar measures and may therefore not be directly comparable. In accordance with the abovementioned guidelines, alternative performance measures, which are detailed below, are presented together with additional information that reconciles the accounting figures presented in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS and financial information reflecting the management criteria adopted by the BCP Group. These indicators and their components are also described in more detail in the glossary.
