No AK 093634 BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 6 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Board of Directors’ Management Report as at 31.12.2024 MACROECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT Greek Economy According to the latest available data published by ELSTAT, the Greek economy continued on an upward trajectory in the third quarter of 2024, with real GDP growing by 2.4% y-o-y and 0.3% q-o-q (Graph 1). In the first nine months of 2024 real GDP rose by 2.3% on an annual basis, on the back of rising private consumption (+1.8% y-o-y), investment (+2.2% y-o-y) and accumulated inventories. In contrast, public consumption declined by 4.2% y-o-y, due to the phasing out of the fiscal measures in response to the energy crisis. Net exports also subtracted 2.5 percentage points (pps) from real GDP growth in the first nine months of 2024, owing to strong imports’ growth (5.5% y-o-y), while exports fell marginally by 0.2% y-o-y. The growth momentum is expected to continue in the fourth quarter of 2024 as signalled by several indicators relevant to economic activity. The Economic Sentiment Indicator averaged to 106.4 in Q4 2024, remaining well above its long-term average and the respective euro area indicator (95). In addition, the Purchasing Managers’ Index averaged to 51.8 in the last quarter of 2024, remaining in expansionary territory, above the threshold of 50 for almost two years. Inflationary pressures are gradually receding (Graph 2). 2024, inflation based on the Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) averaged to 3.1% compared to 4.2% in 2023, as a result of the more moderate increase in food and industrial goods prices. In parallel, in January- December 2024 energy prices decreased by an average of 1.4% on an annual basis, against a fall of 13,4% in the same period of 2023, marking a marginal negative contribution to HICP growth. On the other hand, services continued to grow at a similar pace in 2024 (4.3%) compared to 2023 (4.5%), adding 2,1 p.p. on average to HICP increase. The General Government primary balance is estimated at 2.5% of GDP in 2024, from 2.1% in 2023, whereas it is anticipated to remain at that level in 2025 as well (2.4%) (Bank of Greece, Interim Monetary Report, December 2024).

Furthermore, the debt-to-GDP ratio has recorded the second steepest decrease among the European Union (EU-27) countries since 2019, after Cyprus, as it is estimated to have reached 154.2% in 2024, while it is expected to further decrease to 145.9% in 2025 (Graph 3). In 2024, Greece has successfully tapped the international debt capital markets raising a total of Euro 9.55 billion. This was achieved mainly through two syndicated issuances: a ten-year in February, and a thirty-year in May, amounting to Euro 4 billion and Euro 3 billion respectively. The coverage ratios were in both cases very high, as demand was almost tenfold compared to the value of the issuances. Additionally, eleven re-openings of existing bonds were carried out, through which a total of Euro 2.55 billion was raised. The spread of the 10-year Greek Government Bond (GB) against the respective German GB narrowed from 104 basis points (bps) on 2.1.2024, to 85 bps on 31.12.2024, remaining below Italy’s corresponding spread since May 2023 and approaching by the end of the year the spread between the French and the German 10-year GBs. In 2023, Greece achieved a significant milestone by regaining investment grade status after 13 years according to several rating agencies (S&P, Fitch, DBRS). Furthermore, as a result of continuous improvement in macroeconomic and fiscal figures, three rating agencies upgraded Greece’s outlook from stable, to positive in 2024 - S&P in April 2024, DBRS and Moody’s in September- whereas Scope raised Greece's credit rating in December to BBB, from BBB-, with stable outlook. This was the first upgrade within the investment grade range in more than 20 years, on the back of the improvement of public finances, the resilience of the banking sector, the strengthening of economic prospects and the implementation of structural reforms. The unemployment rate stood at 10.0% on average in 2024, compared to 11.1% in 2023. The increase in employment accelerated in 2024 (1.8% vis-à-vis 1.3% in 2023), whereas the number of unemployed persons declined at a milder pace (-8. 8% compared to -11.1%). Since June 2024, the unemployment rate stands below the 10% threshold (Graph 4). The recovery of the Greek real estate market continues, with both residential and prime commercial prices maintaining an upward trend in 2024. According to the latest reads, nominal residential property prices grew by 7.8% on an annual basis in the third quarter of the year and by 9.2% y-o-y on average in 9m 2024, whereas office and retail prices rose by 4.2% y-o-y and 7.8% y-o-y, respectively in H1 2024.

Since 2017 * , when real estate prices re-embarked on an upward trajectory, residential real estate prices have increased cumulatively by 71%, office prices by 32% and retail shops prices by 43%. In 2024, the private sector’s deposits in the domestic banking system increased by Euro 8.7 billion, against a total increase of Euro 5.8 billion in 2023. In addition, the sum of net credit flows to the private sector amounted to Euro 10.5 billion in the same period. The annual rate of change of total credit to the private sector stood at 8.9% in December 2024, with credit to non-financial corporations increasing by 13.8% and credit to households remaining in negative territory (-0.5%). The prospects of the Greek Economy According to the latest macroeconomic projections by the Bank of Greece and the European Central Bank (December 2024), real GDP growth is expected to hover at about 2.3% in 2024 and pick up to 2.5% in 2025, outpacing the euro area average (2024:0.7%; 2025: 1.1%) (Graph 1). Strong private consumption (2.1%) and investment (8.2%) growth are expected to underpin the 2025 growth outlook. In addition, the unemployment rate is expected to continue trending downwards in 2025. Despite the high level of uncertainty surrounding the economic outlook, the Greek economy is heading into 2025 amidst favorable conditions, including: (i) political stability prevailing in the country, (ii) investment grade status, (iii) commitment to fiscal discipline and (iv) increasing contribution of investment in the growth mix, as a result of the absorption of the Resilience and Recovery Facility funds, which suggest that the country is expected to maintain its strong growth dynamics, consistently outperforming the euro area average since 2021. On the other hand, external factors such as geopolitical tensions, political instability in major European countries and trading partners of Greece, such as France and Germany, a possible increase in trade protectionism following the US elections, as well as more persistent than expected inflation, constitute among the important sources of risk surrounding the prospects of the Greek economy in the coming years. Global Economy In 2024, the global economy has remained resilient despite the high uncertainty created by geopolitical tensions and the election results, primarily in United States of America (USA) and Europe. The de-escalation of inflation has underpinned consumer spending and led to interest rate cuts of central banks in most major economies. The recovery varies among countries, as USA and several emerging markets and developing economies recorded steady growth, in contrast to euro area. On the monetary policy front, the US Federal Reserve (Fed) after many months moved to the first rate cut by 50 basis points (bps) in September 2024 from its 23-year high (5.25% - 5.50%) and by 25 bps in the meetings of November and December 2024. The Fed began its gradual easing of policy after assessing the following signs: First, the de-escalation of inflation from 9.0% in June 2022, which was the highest level in 40 years, to 2.6% in August 2024. Second, the mild slowing of employment growth that could lead to a faster rise in unemployment rate from historically low levels in 2023. In parallel, the Bank of England (BoE), has held interest rates at 4.75% in December 2024, following two cuts in August and November 2024 by 25 bps each. According to the BoE, a gradual approach to monetary easing remains the most appropriate policy until the inflation has returned to the 2% target in the medium term. The European Central Bank (ECB) since June 2024 proceeded to four interest rate cuts by 100 bps cumulatively until the end of the year. As a result, the interest rates on the deposit facility, the main refinancing operations and the marginal lending facility have been decreased to 3.00%, 3.15% and 3.40% respectively. The deflationary process has started since 2023 and is expected to continue in 2025, until the inflation in the Eurozone reaches the target of 2%. Also, in 2024 other central banks in countries such as Switzerland, Canada, and Sweden cut key interest rates by 125bps to 175 bps (Graph 5). According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF, World Economic Outlook Update, January 2025), the growth of global economy is estimated at 3.2% in 2024 from 3.3% in 2023 and is projected at 3.3% in 2025 (Graph 6). Inflation pressures have continued to ease in most countries during 2024 led by further falls in energy, food and other goods prices. Global inflation is expected to decline further to 5.7% in 2024 from 6.7% in 2023 and 4.2% in 2025, with advanced economies returning to their inflation targets sooner than emerging markets and developing economies but remaining above the pre-pandemic levels (Graph 7). * Residential real estate prices: Q3 2017; Offices and Retail prices: H1 2017. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 9 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT In 2024, the USA economy recorded a better-than-expected performance despite the significant tightening of monetary policy. In specific, GDP growth is estimated to reach 2.8% in 2024 from 2.9% in 2023 (IMF, World Economic Outlook Update, January 2025), on account of stronger private consumption underpinned by real wage gains and nonresidential investment. Growth is projected to be at 2.7% in 2025. In China, despite persisting weakness in the real estate sector growth, the growth rate is projected to have slowed mildly to 4.8% in 2024 from 5.2% in 2023, mainly due to better-than-expected net exports. In 2025, China’s growth rate is projected to decelerate marginally to 4.6% (IMF, World Economic Outlook Update, January 2025). In relation with the above developments, significant challenges remain that could impact the global economy in 2025. Firstly, the geopolitical tensions which pose short-term risks as they remain elevated. An intensification of the evolving war conflicts in the Middle East or in Ukraine, could lead to market repricing of sovereign risk in the affected regions and disrupt global energy markets. While the global oil and gas markets appear adequately supplied at present, potential damage to energy infrastructure could lead to market disturbances and reassessment of the global economic outlook. In addition, further worsening of the ongoing geopolitical conflicts could create higher uncertainty that could hit the consumer confidence, investment activity and growth. Secondly, the risk of global geo-economic fragmentation and greater trade protectionism, especially by the largest economies, in case they impose higher tariffs and sanctions in trade agreements. The new government of USA possibly will affect further international relations and the rivalry between the USA and China. Trade policy uncertainty has risen sharply in recent months and increasing trade tensions might risk hampering international trade growth. Thirdly, the public debt-to-GDP ratios that are high in some advanced economies, as well as, in certain emerging markets and developing economies. Therefore, countries like USA and the euro area Member States, in order to ensure macroeconomic stability should implement the appropriate monetary policy to tackle inflationary pressures in combination with fiscal policies that create sufficient fiscal space for future spending. Fourthly, the repercussions of election outcome, particularly in USA, which could reshape the global political landscape. Also, the political instability in major European countries such as Germany and France, is expected to influence the European Union’s agenda in important fields, such as fiscal policy, trade policy and migration. Eurozone According to the ECB’s macroeconomic projections (December 2024), the main factors that played an important role in the euro area's mild recovery in 2024 after the stagnation of 2023 were the pick-up of private consumption, the strengthening of foreign demand and the gradual easing from past monetary policy tightening. The increase in households’ spending, owing to mild wage growth and de-escalating inflation, should support the recovery in the medium term. Except for that, the resilience of labour market with historically low levels of unemployment rates enhances the dynamics of growth. Investment activity is projected to gradually strengthen, mostly reflecting the fading effects of monetary policy tightening, the increasing business profits, the deployment of funds under the Next Generation EU programme and the improving export growth despite the euro area’s weak competitiveness. Real GDP growth is expected at 0.7% in 2024 from 0.5% in 2023 and is projected to strengthen at 1.1% in 2025 and 1.4% in 2026 (ECB Macroeconomic Projections, December 2024). Following the policy rate cuts since June 2024, the negative effects of the tight financing conditions on growth is estimated to fade in the next years. Based on the Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices (HICP), the euro area inflation rate is estimated at 2.4% in 2024 down from 5.4% in 2023 and is forecast to decline further to 2.1% in 2025, close to the ECB's target (ECB Macroeconomic Projections, December 2024). Furthermore, HICP inflation is expected to reach 1.9% in 2026 driven by the services component. The core inflation, which excludes the volatile prices of energy and food is expected to decline to 2.9% in 2024 from 4.9% in 2023, before declining further to 2.3% in 2025 and 1.9% in 2026. Finally, amid geopolitical and trade policy uncertainty, euro area business investment is projected to grow at a modest pace in 2025, while should be supported by a gradual improvement in domestic and foreign demand, solid unit profit growth and less tight financing conditions. In 2026 and 2027 more favourable financing conditions, the further deployment of Next Generation EU (NGEU) and the private funds to spur the BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 10 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT digital and green transitions will also contribute to the recovery in investment. In addition, housing investment is estimated to decline in 2024 reflecting weakness in housing demand in euro area. But on the back of a gradual decline in mortgage lending rates and rising household incomes, housing Investment is projected to recover with slow pace in the course of 2025 and increase further in 2026. Countries where the Group operates Cyprus Economic activity in Cyprus increased by 3.7% (annual change, seasonally adjusted figures) in the first nine months of 2024, recording the third highest growth rate among the EU Member States. The expansion of economic activity was supported by both private and public consumption, whilst the positive contribution of net exports offset the negative contribution of gross capital formation. The European Commission (Autumn 2024 Economic Forecast) estimates real GDP growth rate to stand at 3.6% in 2024 and 2.8% in 2025. Economic growth will be supported by domestic demand, with private consumption boosted by employment gains and strong tourism performance. The gradual easing of monetary policy and the ongoing disinflation process, combined with rising wages, will support real disposable income. Investment is expected to be boosted by existing and upcoming construction projects (in various sectors including tourism, education and health) as well as the implementation of Recovery and Resilience Plan (RRP). Annual harmonised inflation decelerated from 8.1% in 2022, to 3.9% in 2023, while according to the European Commission (Autumn 2024 Economic Forecast), it is forecast to continue to decelerate to 2.2% in 2024 and 2.1% in 2025, mainly due to the gradual easing of base effects in particular for food and the fall in energy prices. Public debt decreased significantly from 81% of GDP in 2022, to 73.6% in 2023 and it is expected to fall to 66.4% in 2024 and 61.4% in 2025 mainly due to primary surpluses and continued nominal GDP growth (European Commission, Autumn 2024 Economic Forecast). United Kingdom GDP increased slightly, on an annual basis, in the first nine months of 2024 (Q1: 0.3%; Q2: 0.7%; Q3: 0.9%). The European Commission (Autumn 2024 Economic Forecast) estimates that GDP will increase by 1% in 2024 and 1.4% in 2025. The Bank of England raised its policy rate five times in 2023, reaching 5.25% due to high inflation. However, in 2024 the Bank of England cut its policy rate twice to 4.75%. Inflation based on the Consumer Price Index (including owner occupiers’ housing costs-CPIH), averaged 6.8% in 2023, whereas, according to the European Commission (Autumn 2024 European Economic Forecast), it is expected to decelerate to 3.1% in 2024 and 2.4% in 2025. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 11 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT STRATEGIC PLAN The Group’s strategy aims on significant growth and value creation leveraging on the identity of its franchise, its distinctive positioning in highly specialized and profitable segments, its long-standing commitment to create shareholder value and its track record in delivering on its promises. Strategic Plan’s priority areas are profitability enhancement, balance sheet resilience preservation and capital generation and distribution. It builds upon the successful implementation of the Group’s transformation programme and plays to the unique strengths of the Group. Our strategy is based on six clearly defined strategic pillars covering all Group’s business units: a) Increase core revenues in retail banking, enhance productivity through automation and migrate core offering to digital channels, reducing Cost to Income ratio b) Adapt offering to attract a wider customer base across wealth management/private banking and other selected clients while investing in technology to modernize service model c) Reinforce position in wholesale lending, structured finance and investment banking and ensure adequate returns for capital while growing fees and continuing to refine operating model d) Safeguard profitability in international activities by accelerating lending momentum, also through digital channels, capitalizing on strengths in payments and wealth to grow fees, transform operations and increase productivity e) Continue to selectively grow lending book while maintaining strong levels of liquidity. Additionally, theGroup intends to further reduce its Group NPE ratio while improving the coverage ratio (within a condensed Cost of Risk ratio) f) Scale-up sustainable finance strategy to meet full market potential and deliver on firm ESG commitments. Incorporate ESG criteria in remuneration and risk-management framework and fully integrate sustainable finance strategy across business and operating model. The key financial priorities are summarized as per below: Profitability • Significant business profitability improvement across Business units; continuous balance sheet de-risking allows for capital re-allocation from NPA Unit to other businesses with significant profit generation potentials • Revenues increase on the back of a) strong NII performance, largely attributed to NII growth driven by volumes expansion and b) growing fees and commissions on the back of product penetration initiatives and recents partnerships announced (Generali, UniCredit). • Cost management limiting inflation impact, and execution of initiatives targeting OpEx reduction in selected areas Balance sheet • Diversified and resilient balance sheet • Structural NPE reduction through organic and inorganic levels, lowering NPE ratio and improving coverage while further de-escalating cost of risk • Diversified, granular and resilient deposit base • Optimize RWA allocation and liquidity towards non-commercial book expansion exploring selective real estate and investment securities opportunities Capital generation and distribution • Healthy capital generation on the back of strong returns • Maintain solid fully loaded capital ratios (FL CET1) across the period • Reward shareholders with gradual payouts increase at par with average European Banking levels ANALYSIS OF GROUP FINANCIAL INFORMATION As at 31.12.2024, the Group’s Total Assets decreased Euro 346 million (less than 1% decrease ) compared to 31.12.2023, amounting to Euro 72.1 billion. The completion of the sale transactions for AB Romania and project Skyline in 2024 are the main drivers for the reduction in Assets classified as held for sale of Euro 4.4 billion (and a reduction of Liabilities classified as held for sale of Euro 3.6 billion). As a result of the derecognition of the net assets in AB Romania and the Skyline subsidiary, the Group recognized as part of the sale consideration, three new associates at their fair value by holding participation in 9.9% of AB Romania, 9.9% of UniCredit Romania and 35% of Skyline, increasing the value of Investments in associates by Euro 470 million compared to 2023. Loans and advances to Customers increased by Euro 2.9 billion compared to 31.12.2023 at Euro 39.0 billion, resulting in a loan-to-deposit ratio of 77% (31.12.2023: 75%) * . The increase is mainly driven by the credit expansion in the second half of 2024 through net disbursements of Euro 3.2 billion, counterbalanced by the classification as Assets classified as held for sale of the loan portfolios of project Gaia II (which includes mainly non-performing collateralized retail loans) and a Cypriot portfolio of non-performing loans. As at 31.12.2024, the balance of Investment securities stood at Euro 17.6 billion (31.12.2023: Euro 16.0 billion) representing an increase of 10%. The acquisition predominantly of higher yielding HQLA securities supports the Group’s profitability and liquidity metrics. Due to Customers amounted to Euro 51.0 billion, increased by Euro 2.6 billion or 5% compared to 31.12.23, whilst debt Securities in issue and other borrowed funds increased by 10% compared to 31.12.2023 and reached Euro 3.2 billion. During the year, the Group issued a new preferred Senior Note of nominal value Euro 400 million, a new subordinated bond with a nominal amount of Euro 500 million and a credit linked note of Euro 88 million, whilst it repaid early subordinated debt issued in 2020 of nominal value Euro 369 million and senior notes issued on 1 November 2022 of nominal value Euro 400 million. In 2024, the Bank repaid Euro 5 billion of TLTRO funding and refinanced it with Euro 1.5 billion LTRO and euro MRO 1.1 billion funding from the ECB, as well as increasing its repo funding with other banks by Euro 2.2 billion, resulting in an overall decrease of its borrowings from other banks by Euro 388 million or 6%. 1 Τhe loan to deposit ratio is presented in the Appendix of the Βoard οf Directors’ Management Report. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 12 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Following the changes in its funding mix and the investment in securities, Cash and balances at central banks reduced by Euro 1.2 billion to reach Euro 3.0 billion (31.12.2023: Euro 4.2 billion), whilst amounts due from other financial institutions increased by Euro 724 million to reach Euro 2.3 billion (31.12.2023: 1.6 billion). The Group’s Total Equity amounted to Euro 8.2 billion as at 31.12.2024, increased by Euro 866 million compared to 31.12.2023. The main drivers of the increase in capital are the issue of new AT1 capital instruments for a nominal value of Euro 300 million and the results of the period, counterbalanced by the dividend coupon payment for the Additional Tier 1 instruments and the distribution of returns to ordinary shareholders in the form of Euro 61 million cash dividends and Euro 51 million in share buybacks (another Euro 10 million share buybacks were completed in early 2025 for a total distribution to shareholders of Euro 122 million). The Total Capital Adequacy Ratio of the Group stands at 21.9%, increased compared to 31.12.2023 (18.8%), allowing the Bank to operate well above its capital requirements. It is noted that Group’s capital ratios already incorporate the effect of dividends for 2024 results according to its distribution policy. Excluding the provision for dividends, capital ratios would increase by c. 97 bps and the Total Capital ratio would have stood at 22.9%. Regarding the results for the year ending 31.12.2024, the Group’s net profits after income tax amounted to Euro 654 million (31.12.2024: Euro 618 million). Below are the main drivers for the results of 2024: • Net interest income stood at Euro 1,645 million (31.12.2023: Euro 1,659 million), presenting a decrease of 1% versus the comparative period. The decrease in NII is mainly attributed to the higher volume of the deposit base and higher cost of term deposit as a result of higher interest rates on offer. This was partially offset by the expansion of the bond and securities portfolio following new investments. • Net fee and commission income for the period was Euro 420 million (31.12.2023: Euro 374 million) showing an increase of 12%, attributed mainly due to increased commissions for issuing corporate bond loans, increased fees from assets under management and mutual funds and higher advisory fees and security transaction fees. • Gain less losses on derecognition of financial transactions measured at amortised cost for the period were gains of Euro 31 million (31.12.2023: Euro 17 million loss) and relate mainly to the sale of government bonds. • Gains less losses on financial transactions for 2024 amounted to a profit of Euro 80 million (31.12.2023: gains of Euro 70 million), representing an increase of 14%. Gains are mainly due to the valuation of interest rate swap derivatives. The amount for 2024, includes also Euro 11 million losses due to the cash Tender Offer that took place in June 2024 on its EUR 500mn Tier 2 notes callable in February 2025, at a purchase price of 99.75%, which attracted 73.7% participation. • Other income for the period ended 31.12.2024 was Euro 40 million (31.12.2023: Euro 39 million). • Operating expenses for the period amounted to Euro 866 million (31.12.2023: Euro 815 million) and are analyzed as follows: ➢ staff costs of Euro 370 million (31.12.2023: Euro 333 million) increased by Euro 37 million mainly due to wage inflation and higher variable remuneration programs. ➢ general and administrative expenses of Euro 317 million (31.12.2023: Euro 325 million) decreased mainly as a result of no contributions required to resolution funds in 2024. ➢ depreciation and amortization of Euro 179 million (31.12.2023: Euro 157 million) increased due to IT additions in 2023 supporting digital transformation and changes in the estimated useful life of certain assets. • Impairment losses and provisions to cover credit risk amounted to Euro 360 million (31.12.2023: Euro 381 million), representing a 6% decrease compared to 2023, and include impairment losses of Euro 215 million for the new NPEs loan portfolios classified as held for sale (including the new transactions for Gaia II and Cyprus loans that were classified as held for sale in 2024, as well as loans that were classified as held for sale for the projects Hermes, Solar, Leasing and Gaia I in the previous year). By comparison, impairment losses to cover credit risk due to NPE transactions were Euro 162 million in 2023. The underlying cost of risk stood at Euro 144 million (31.12.2023: 218 million). * • Gains/ (Losses) on disposal of fixed assets and equity investments for 2024 amounted to gains of Euro 27 million (31.12.2023: Euro 3 million gain) and relate mainly to the gain of Euro 23 million from the disposal of real estate assets for project Skyline which was concluded in 2024. The comparative figure included a gain of Euro 8 million for real estate assets of project Sky which was concluded in 2023. • Provisions and transformation costs amounted to Euro 99 million in 2024 (31.12.2023: Euro 50 million). The amounts for 2024 include Euro 55 million for the cost of a Voluntary Separation Scheme (VSS) (respective figure for 2023 Euro 39 million) and the cost of Euro 25 million for the funding of school renovations announced by the government. Transformation costs amounted to Euro 14 million in 2024 (31.12.2023: Euro 4 million). • Income tax for the year ending 31.12.2024 amounted to Euro 219 million (31.12.2023: 226 million). • Net profit/(loss) after income tax from discontinued operations for Euro 57 million (31.12.2023: Euro 64 million) include the results of subsidiaries Alpha Life and Alpha Bank Romania, that are part of the sale transaction with UniCredit S.p.A., as well as the subsidiaries Alpha Leasing Romania and Alpha Insurance Brokers (Note 54 to the financial statements). A gain of Euro 7 millions relates to the conclusion of the sale of Alpha Bank Romania.

More information is presented in the section Real Estate Owned Assets (REOs) Management. • Τhe significant changes in debt securities in issue and additional Tier 1 instruments performed during the year are presented in the Liquidity Risk section. RISK MANAGEMENT The Group has established a framework for the thorough management of risks, based on best practices and regulatory requirements. This framework, based on the common European legislation and the current system of common banking rules, principles and standards, is improving continuously over time and is applied in the daily conduct of the Group’s activities within and across borders, making the corporate governance of the Group effective. Since November 2014, the Group falls under the responsibility of the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM) – the financial supervision system which involves the European Central Bank (ECB) and the Bank of Greece – and as a significant banking institution is directly supervised by the ECB. The SSM operates jointly with the European Banking Authority (EBA), the European Parliament, the Eurogroup, the European Commission and the European Systemic Risk Board (ESRB), within the scope of their respective competences. The applicable banking regulatory framework in the European Union (EU), i.e., the Basel III capital framework, is effective as of 1st January, 2014. The said framework entered into force through Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 on “prudential requirements for credit institutions and investment firms” (the “Capital Requirements Regulation” or the “CRR”) published on 27 June, 2013, in conjunction with Directive 2013/36/EU on “access to the activity of credit institutions and the prudential supervision of credit institutions and investment firms” (the “Capital Requirements Directive IV” or the “CRD IV”) published on 27 June, 2013 that has been transposed into the Greek legislative framework by Law 4261/2014. The framework was amended by Regulation (EU) No 2019/876 (CRR II) of 20 May, 2019 and Directive (EU) 2019/878 (CRD V) of 20 May, 2019. The latter has been transposed into the Greek legislative framework by Law 4799/2021. The adoption of the Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR ΙΙΙ) in accordance with European Regulation 2024/1623, introduces a series of significant changes to the regulatory framework established under CRR ΙΙ, particularly in the context of standardized approaches to credit risk, market risk, operational risk and CVA risk. These modifications aim to enhance the resilience of financial institutions while ensuring greater consistency and comparability across jurisdictions. The transition from CRR ΙΙ to CRR ΙΙΙ reflects the European Union’s commitment to implementing the final Basel III reforms (Basel IV). CRR 3 aims to: • Enhance the risk sensitivity of prudential frameworks. • Improve the comparability and transparency of financial institutions’ risk profiles. • Promote a more resilient banking system capable of withstanding economic shocks. The CRR III is applicable from January 1, 2025, except for certain articles mostly related to European Banking Authority (EBA) mandates, which took effect earlier (July 2024), and the market risk component, whose implementation has been postponed by one year. Regarding CRD VI, European Union (EU) member states have 18 months to incorporate the Directive into their national legislation, after which CRD VI will take effect the next year, on January 1, 2026. On specific areas of the regulatory package, it is worth noting that in the market risk section, the European Commission (EC) has activated the delegated act under Article 461a of CRR 3 to delay the implementation of the new FRTB (Fundamental Review of the Trading Book) framework until January 2026 as a capital requirement. At the date of preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements, minor impact is anticipated from its application in 2025. The fully loaded CET 1 impact is estimated at 30 bps. For the implementation of the aforementioned regulatory package, the EBA has around 140 mandates from CRR III and CRD VI to develop Level 2 and Level 3 legislation (RTS, ITS, and guidelines) to facilitate the application of the regulations. Of particular importance is the EBA's final report on the Implementing Technical Standards (ITS) for entity disclosures, which were approved by the Commission and published in the OJEU as a Regulation at the end of December, and which include changes to the Pillar 3 framework. These changes encompass new and revised disclosure requirements for the output floor, crypto-assets (transitional treatment to be replaced by a definitive one before mid-2025, including review by the BCBS), credit valuation adjustment (CVA) risk, credit risk, market risk, and operational risk, as well as minor modifications to the leverage ratio. These ITS are applicable from January 1, 2025. Moreover, the EBA has already published several consultations in 2024 regarding credit risk (off-balance-sheet items, default definition, etc.), market risk, operational risk, sustainability, and reporting and disclosures, for which the final text is still pending publication. The Group’s determines and reviews its risk-taking strategy by (a) the determination of the extent to which the Group is willing to undertake risks (risk appetite), (b) the assessment of potential impacts of the development strategy activities on the definition of the risk appetite limits, so that the relevant decisions combine the anticipated profitability with the potential losses and (c) the development of appropriate procedures for the implementation of this strategy through a mechanism which allocates risk appetite responsibilities among the Group Units. Specifically, the Group, taking into account the nature, the scale and the complexity of its activities, as well as the risk profile, develops a risk management strategy based on the following three lines of defense: • 1 st line of defense Units (process owners) have the primary responsibility to own and manage risks associated with day-to-day operational activities. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 15 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • 2 nd line of defense Units, comprising the areas of Chief Risk Control Officer, the Chief Credit Officer, as well as the Risk Models & Data Validation Business Area. These are independent from each other and from the other lines of defense. These areas report to the Chief Risk Officer, who reports to the Risk Management Committee of the Group. Their function is complementary to controlling banking business of the first line of defense in order to ensure the objectivity in the decision-making process, to measure the effectiveness of these decisions in terms of risk undertaking, to design and execute on the risk control strategy and to comply with the applicable legislative and institutional framework, by monitoring the internal regulations and ethical standards as well as to display and evaluate the total exposure of the Bank and the Group to risk, based on the established guidelines. The Risk Model and Data Validation Business Area, operates as second line of defense to comply with Risk Data Aggregation and Risk Reporting (RDARR) regulatory guidelines. • The Internal Audit constitutes the third line of defense. The Internal Audit is an independent function, reporting to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, and audits the activities of the Bank and the Group, including the activities of the Risk Management Unit. Credit Risk Credit Risk arises from the potential failure of debtors’ or counterparties to meet all or part of their payment obligations to the Group. The primary objective of the Group’s strategy for credit risk management, in order to maximize the risk-adjusted return, is the continuous, timely and systematic monitoring of the loan portfolio and the maintenance of credit exposures within the framework of acceptable overall risk undertaking limits. At the same time, the conduct of daily business within a clearly defined framework of granting credit, supported by specific credit criteria, is ensured. Τhe Group’s credit risk management framework is being developed based on a series of credit policy procedures as well as systems and models for measuring, monitoring and controlling credit risk. These models are subject to an ongoing review process in order to ensure full compliance with the current institutional and regulatory framework and their adaptation to the respective economic conditions and to the nature and extent of the Group’s business. Under this perspective and in order to further strengthen and improve the credit risk management framework during 2024, the following actions were implemented: • Incorporation of the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) risk assessment in the credit approval process of business lending, at obligor, transaction and overall level per transaction. • Incorporation of the Reputational Risk Assessment of Obligors/Potential Wholesale Banking Obligors in the credit approval process, as defined in the Reputational Risk Management Policy. • Update of the Credit Policy Manuals for Retail Banking (Housing and Consumer Lending, Small Business Banking) and Wholesale Banking, taking into account the regulatory guidelines on credit risk management issues and the Group’s business strategy. • Update of the Group Credit Risk Control Framework in order to ensure compliance with Credit Risk Policies at Bank and Group level. • Enhancement of credit risk models, where needed, to keep them up-to-date and expand applicability, including but not limited to Climate Risk. • Update of the Group Credit Risk Models Validation Framework in line with the recent regulatory guidelines and best practices, including qualitative and quantitative validation of significant increase in credit risk (SICR) criteria. • Update of the Credit Rating System User’s Manual in order to capture the new ESG implementations in Credit Rating Systems (ABRS & CreditLens). • Ongoing validation of the Risk Models in order to ensure their accuracy, reliability, stability and predictive power • Benchmarking key risk indicators with the use of EBA risk dashboard. • Development of a Risk Data Aggregation and Risk Reporting Validation Framework that provides guidance for the assessment - as a second line of defence - of the accuracy, completeness and consistency of the procedures and controls across the whole range of the directives of Basel Committee on Banking Supervision's (BCBS239) and of ECB for all types of risk. • Update of the Concentration Risk and Credit Threshold Policy regarding the maximum acceptable credit limits for large business groups and the enhancement of the Sector Rating Methodology. • Update of the Credit Risk Early Warning Policy regarding the classification of the business early warning triggers into Material or Non- Material, the enrichment of business early warning triggers as well as the incorporation of the new term "Operating Risk". • Update of the Loan Collateral Policy regarding the enrichment of methods of real estate property individual valuations with sustainability and ESG factors. • Update of the Credit Risk Model Management Policy regarding the review of the the overrides/non systemic ratings list of values. • Update of the Retail Banking Arrears and Forbearance Policy regarding the addition of new products and changes to the existing Retail Banking debt settlement products. • Periodic conduct of stress test exercises as a tool for assessing the impact of various macroeconomic scenarios on the business strategy formulation, the business decision-taking and the Group’s capital position. The stress tests are conducted in accordance with the requirements of the regulatory framework and constitute a key component of the Group’s credit risk management strategy. Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) Risks The Group adopts a proactive approach to the management of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) risks, with particular emphasis on risks arising from climate and environmental change, which is a key component of its Risk Management Strategy. The Group, acknowledging the relevance and potential impact of the risks stemming from climate, environmental and social related factors, and especially climate change, and as part of its plan and in alignment with the respective external guidelines, has elaborated further on the ESG incorporation into the risk identification and materiality assessment processes and in the overall risk management framework, and is committed to monitor, assess, and manage these risks going forward and further enhance its policies and procedures, where deemed necessary. Leveraging on the work already performed in previous years the Bank has proceeded with targeted enhancements during 2024 in accordance Group’s ESG plan commitments. More specifically, the following activities have been performed: i. The Group has enhanced its credit policy to incorporate the ESG obligor, transaction and overall per transaction (combination of obligor and transaction) assessment, into its credit approval process. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 16 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT ii. The Group has developed a Reputational Risk Policy which defines the main principles, processes and governance structure for effectively managing the reputational risk exposures. The Policy also addresses reputational risk stemming from ESG factors. iii. The Bank has updated its Risk Inventory that it maintains and evaluates (ICAAP Report) to provide a comprehensive overview of - enhancements and progress achieved in climate and environmental-related risks in the Bank's Risk Registry. iv. The Group has enhanced its materiality assessment of climate and ESG risks incorporating time horizons (short/ 2025-medium/2030-long time/2050) and identifying the sectors that are most vulnerable to climate and environmental related risks. In addition, with respect to nature-related factors, the Bank has examined the “inside-out” and “outside-in” impact by utilizing the UNEP FI and ENCORE tool. In alignment with the guidance across different sources [e.g. ECB, European Banking Authority (EBA), European Commission], the Bank considers Climate and Environmental risks as a theme, i.e. as a transversal risk, incorporating such factors as drivers of existing financial and non-financial risk categories in its risk management framework. More specifically, the outcome of the materiality assessment for each risk category is outlined as follows: A. Climate related risks: ▪ Credit risk: ➢ Transition risk: considered to be materially affected, both in the Non-Financial Corporate (NFC) portfolio and the Retail portfolio secured by Real Estate in the medium and long-term horizons. - The assessment for the NFC portfolio examines the Bank’s performing exposures within the ESG Sensitive Perimeter distributed to total average transition risk score for all time horizons (short-, medium- and long-term). The determination of activities/sectors more sensitive to transition risk was based on the following factors (i) Climate Policy Relevant Sectors (CPRS) perimeter, (ii) Sensitive sectors to transition risk according to Net Zero Banking Alliance (NZBA) and Long-Term Strategy for Greece for 2050 (LTS), (iii) Examination of the emission intensities at sector level and forward-looking Probability of Defaults (PDs) based on the short-term disorderly transition scenario that ECB published as part of the 2022 ECB climate stress test exercise and (iv) Exclusion of: a) RES loans,b) dedicated-purpose sustainable loans that are aligned with EU Taxonomy (and substantially contribute to Climate Change Mitigation (CCM) objective) and c) other loans that are sustainable according to the Bank's Sustainable Finance Framework, provided that they are linked to and affect Climate Change Mitigation (CCM) objective. - The assessment for the retail portfolio secured by Real Estate is based on the EPC (Energy Performance Certificate) distribution of the real estate assets and the minimum EPC requirements set in the “Report on the proposal for a Directive by the European Parliament and the Council concerning the recast of energy performance standards for non-residential buildings”. ➢ Physical risk: It is, also, considered to be materially affected in the medium and long-term horizons, leveraging on the vulnerability assessment outcome per sector and region. ▪ Operational risk: seems to be materially affected by transition and physical risks in the medium and long-term horizons as examined in terms of the Bank’s Own used Real Estate Properties. ➢ Regarding Legal/Litigation risk, and specifically Greenwashing Risk seems also be materially affected by C&E risks in medium and long-term horizons, taking into consideration : i) the EBA guideline on Green Mortgages and EBA’s report “Greenwashing monitoring and supervision” and the relevant EBA report on Green Loans & Mortgages, ii) the limited current number of exposures and anticipated increased exposures in the future and the iii) the greenwashing risk related scenario: “Fine imposed to the Bank due to Greenwashing”. ▪ Market / Liquidity risk: currently assessed as immaterial to both transition and physical risks across time horizons. ▪ Reputational risk: materially affected by C&E risks in the medium and long-term time horizons. The assessment has taken into consideration potential consequences in the reputation of the institution due to either Greenwashing Risk, or the risk associated with clients with a delayed response to transition risk, i.e. laggards to transition risk. ▪ Business & Strategic risk: ➢ Transition risk: considered to be materially affected by transition risk over the medium- and long-term horizons. The assessment examines the Gross Interest and Fees & Commissions Income of the Bank’s performing portfolio within the ESG Sensitive Perimeter, following the same approach as credit risk. ➢ Physical risk: considered to be materially affected by physical risks over the medium and long-term horizons. B. Nature related risks: ▪ Credit risk: materially affected by nature-related risks (and more specifically by biodiversity) over long-term horizon. ▪ Operational risk: materially affected by nature-related factors in the medium- and long-term horizons. ▪ Market/ Liquidity risk: immaterially affected by nature-related risks across time horizons. ▪ Reputational risk: materially affected by nature-related factors in the medium and long-term horizon. ▪ Business & Strategic risk: materially affected by nature-related risks (and more specifically by biodiversity) over long-term horizon. C. Social related risks: ▪ Credit risk: no material risks arise from the downstream portfolio due to the processes and controls applied by the institution, despite the fact that certain part of the NFC portfolio impacts social factors. ▪ Operational risk: considered material in the short-medium and long-term. Specifically, the social topics considered as material are (a) for own workforce: the training & skills development, and (b) for consumers and end users: privacy, access to (quality) information and responsible marketing practices. D. Governance risks: ▪ Corruption and Bribery governance topic is considered material in the short-, medium- and long-term. v. The Bank designed and implemented a dedicated internal report including ESG metrics for loans and advances, which is presented on a quarterly basis to the Group Sustainability Committee and the RMC (Risk Management Committee),, and through the RMC, to the Board members. vi. ESG-related considerations have been integrated into the Group's Remuneration Policy, aligning executive compensation with environmental and sustainability goals. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 17 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT vii. A dedicated questionnaire was implemented to assess the Group's risk culture awareness, helping to evaluate internal perceptions and practices. viii. The Bank delivered several internal ESG trainings regarding the ESG Overall Assessment of obligors including ESG Obligor Assessment, Transcaction Assessment and Reputational Risk Assessment. ix. The Bank has centralised data related to the CPRS sector and Physical Risk assessment on obligor and real estate level, ensuring both credit assessment and reporting needs are efficiently met. x. The Bank has set up a process for greenwashing assessment in its wholesale loan portfolio in order to safeguard green loan tagging. More information about Climate and ESG Materiality assessment methodology and other ESG related enhancements is presented in the 2024 Sustainability Statement. To address the C&E risks, in 2024 the Bank has deployed a comprehensive strategic plan by carrying out the following key actions: a) Identified, assessed, and prioritized the ESG issues related to its activities that may impact the Group’s operations and/or its Stakeholders. Under this scope, a Double Materiality Analysis (DMA) was performed by leveraging the UNEP FI Principles for Responsible Banking (PRB) Tool, the RSCA inherent risk assessment and outcome from the Compliance Risk Assessments to identify the material Impacts, Risks and Opportunities (IROs) and connect these with the relevant European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) topics, subtopics or sub- subtopics under Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). ,. b) Enhanced the regular monitoring of ESG Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) in order to cover all material C&E risks (transition & physical for credit risk in NFCs and Collaterals, operational losses due to physical risk, social and governance risks, reputational risk due to ESG considerations, business & strategic risk through the monitoring of income reliance from sectors sensitive to transition risk). c) Developed science-based financed emissions targets for material carbon-intensive sectors covering both lending and investment portfolios, in alignment with the Paris Agreement on climate change and net zero emissions by 2050. Moreover, the Group has already incorporated in its Risk Appetite Framework (RAF) a set of quantitative indicators and qualitative commitments regarding Climate and ESG risks. Specifically: • The Group integrated climate risks into its overall risk management framework. • In terms of quantitative indicators, the Group has enhanced Climate & Environment indicators designed to cover all material C&E risks which are included in its Risk and Capital Strategy (RCS). The material indicators have been upgraded to Tier II status, with appropriate limits set for more effective monitoring and management. • Enhanced credit assessment process is in place according to the "Climate related, Environmental, Social and Governance Risk Management Policy on Group’s Business Lending" incorporating additional dimensions of climate related and governance risks. • The Bank expanded its Exclusion List (i.e. the activities that it does not finance) to encompass additional activities with environmental and social impact, according to the United Nations “Universal Declaration of Human Rights”. • The Group has enhanced its due diligence process with respect to the assessment of its Customers’ ESG/climate risk profile, through the improvement of collection of relevant information. • The Group integrated information on the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) of relevant real estate properties within its credit decision making process as well as each collateral valuation subject to EPC eligibility. The Bank has developed climate risk-specific methodologies to estimate the impact of transition on credit risk across different time horizons (short, medium and long term) by making use of leading global macroeconomic and sectoral models. Additional characteristics such as buildings’ energy efficiency, geographic and counterparty level characteristics are also incorporated in the estimation to further account for heterogeneity of impacts inherent in climate risks. These are examined as stand-alone climate scenarios and used under both the Economic and Normative perspective. Where applicable these scenarios are also applied on operational risk and business & strategic risks considering the relevant risk materiality assessment that has been performed. • Furthermore, the Bank has developed climate risk-specific methodologies to estimate the impact of physical risk (chronic and acute risks – specifically flood and wildfire) on credit risk across different time horizons (short, medium and long term) by making use of leading global macroeconomic and sectoral models, as well natural catastrophe models for Greece. Additional characteristics such as geographic and counterparty level characteristics are also incorporated in the estimation to further account for heterogeneity of impacts inherent in climate risks. These are examined as stand-alone climate scenarios and used under both the Economic and Normative perspective. Where applicable these scenarios are also applied on operational risk and business & strategic risks considering the relevant risk materiality assessment that has been performed. • In addition, regarding the Climate risk impact, the Bank has expanded its climate risk-specific methodologies to estimate the impact of climate scenarios on operational risk and business & strategic risks under Normative perspective apart from the impact quantification on economic perspective estimated in previous year. • The regular monitoring of ESG Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) were upgraded to Tier II status with limits set for more effective monitoring. If any of these limits are breached, the Bank will follow the same escalation process as with all non-C&E KPIs. In order to assess the impact of climate risk on the calculation of Expected Credit Loss (ECL), detailed information on the ESG profile of the obligor and the collateral (e.g. location of collateral as well as information on EPCs) is being collected. The information has been incorporated into the respective data systems and methodological approaches are examined in the models for calculating the ECL. More specifically, the following are in progress: • Data collections regarding ESG related information of the obligor through the use of the inter-banking ESG platform were ongoing on 2024. • Further enhancement and recalibration of the Bank’s ESG scorecards leveraging the data above. • The models assessing environmental, governance and social risks are validated in line with the updated Group Credit Risk Models Validation Framework. • Identifying enhancements or additions to the current set of models used for risk parameter estimation and prediction, in order to integrate ESG risks. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 18 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The Group continues to develop and implement its ambitious ESG Workplan, aiming to enhance the sustainability of its business model and to ensure long-term value creation for its Shareholders. Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk refers to the risk arising from an entity's inability to meet its short-term financial obligations due to a mismatch between its cash inflows and outflows or due to challenges in converting assets into cash without incurring significant losses. There are two main types of liquidity risk: 1. Funding Liquidity Risk Funding liquidity risk refers to the risk that an organization will not have sufficient cash inflows to cover its cash outflows. This can happen due to several factors, including but not limited to: • Unexpected Cash Outflows: Sudden and large cash demands that were not anticipated, such as emergency expenses, debt repayments, or withdrawal of funds by depositors or investors. • Mismatch in Timing: The timing of cash inflows may not align with the timing of cash outflows leading to periods where the organization faces cash shortages. • Credit Issues: Difficulty in securing short-term borrowing or rolling over existing debt due to creditworthiness concerns or unfavorable market conditions. 2. Market Liquidity Risk Market liquidity risk pertains to the risk that an organization will not be able to quickly sell assets or investments at their current market value due to changes in market conditions. This type of liquidity risk can arise from: • Market Volatility: Significant fluctuations in market prices, which can make it difficult to sell assets without incurring a loss. • Market Depth: The depth of the market, or the volume of transactions that can be conducted without impacting the asset's price, can influence the ease of liquidating assets. In thin markets, large sales can drive down prices significantly. • Regulatory and Economic Changes: Shifts in regulations or broader economic conditions can impact market liquidity, making it more challenging to convert assets into cash quickly and at minimal loss. In essence, liquidity risk embodies the challenges an organization might face in maintaining adequate cash flow to meet its obligations and the difficulties in managing and liquidating assets efficiently in changing market environments. Effective liquidity management is crucial to mitigate these risks and ensure financial stability and operational continuity. In 2024, customer deposits on Group Level increased by Euro 2.6 billion representing a 5% rise compared to 31.12.2023. The liquidity buffer, comprising cash and deposits with the Central Banks, government and corporate bonds (both eligible and non-eligible as collateral by the Central Banks), and other liquid items, stood at Euro 17.5 billion at the solo level and Euro 20.1 billion at the Group level as of 31.12.2024. The Bank’s financing from the Eurosystem was Euro 2.6 billion at year-end, reduced from Euro 5 billion on 31.12.2023. During year 2024 the following issuances and repayments of bonds have been performed: ▪ In February 2024, Alpha Bank successfully placed a Euro 400 million, senior preferred bond with a coupon of 5.00%. The bond has a 6.25-year tenor and is callable at year 5.25. ▪ In June 2024, Alpha Bank placed a Euro 500 million Subordinated Tier II bond with a coupon of 6%, featuring a 10.25-year tenor and callable at year 5.25. ▪ In June 2024 , Alpha Services and Holdings S.A. invited holders of its outstanding € 500 million Dated Subordinated Fixed Rate Reset Tier 2 Notes to tender their Notes for cash at a price of 99.75 per cent. As at 13.6.2024, a principal amount of € 369 million of the Notes were validly tendered, while a principal amount of € 131 million remained outstanding. ▪ In September 2024, Alpha Bank placed a Euro 300 million Additional Tier I bond with a coupon of 7.5%. The bond has a perpetual maturity and is callable at year 6. ▪ In November 2024, Alpha Bank exercised the early redemption option on its Euro 400 million Senior Preferred bond, which carried a coupon of 7% and was set to mature in November 2025. ▪ Ιn December 2024 under the Alpha Bank-Credit Linked Note Issuance Programme, the Group issued a new credit linked bond with a nominal amount of € 87,6 million and maturity date 30.6.2039, callable on 23.1.2029 and with a floating coupon of Euribor 3M In June 2024, Alpha Bank was upgraded to Baa3 by Moody’s with a positive outlook. In September 2024, it was upgraded to BB+ by S&P Global Ratings and to BB with a positive outlook by Fitch. During 2024, the European Central Bank reduced its deposit facility rate by 100 basis points, from 4% to 3%. Similarly, the Main Refinancing Operations (MRO) rate was reduced by 135 basis points, from 4.50% to 3.15%, arrowing the spread between the deposit facility and MRO rates from 50 basis points to 15 basis points. To monitor liquidity risk, liquidity stress tests are conducted on a regular basis in order to assess potential outflows, contractual or contingent, and their impact on the liquidity buffer. The purpose of this process is to confirm whether the existing liquidity buffer is adequate to cover the Bank’s needs. These stress tests are carried out in accordance with the approved Liquidity Risk Policy of the Group. It is noted that according to these stress tests the Group remains solvent across all scenarios. Moreover, following the submission of the 2024 ILAAP report the Contingency Funding Plan was reviewed and updated as part of its annual review cycle. The Contingency Funding Plan complements the Recovery Plan and is designed to support the efficient management of an emerging liquidity crisis. Its primary purpose is to enable timely remedial actions to mitigate any reduction in the liquidity buffer. Interest Rate and Credit Spread Risk in the Banking Book BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 19 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Interest Rate Risk in the Banking Book (IRRBB) refers to the risk that a change in base interest rates, such as the Euro swap curve, will impact the Bank’s Net Interest Income and the Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities (Economic Value of Equity). Credit Spread Risk in the Banking Book (CSRBB) is the risk arising from changes of the market price for credit risk, for liquidity and for potentially other characteristics of credit-risky instruments, which is not captured by another existing prudential framework such as IRRBB or by expected credit/(jump-to-) default risk. CSRBB captures the risk of an instrument’s changing spread while assuming the same level of creditworthiness. Alpha Bank closely monitors the interest rate risk of the banking book and has adopted a strategic and holistic approach to manage the overall interest rate and credit spread risk. The change in the Net Interest Income and the change in the Economic Value of Equity, which result from a change in base interest rates, are calculated for internal and prudential stress scenarios on a monthly basis. The Bank has established appropriate limits at its Risk Appetite Framework to monitor its IRRBB exposure. Additionally, the Credit Spread Risk of the Banking Book (CSRBB), which is calculated based on pre-defined scenario developed by the Bank, is monitored on a quarterly basis. The relevant IRRBB stress tests scenarios results, along with the limit usage, are presented to the Assets-Liabilities Management Committee and to the Risk Management Committee of the Board of Directors. In 2024, the Bank continued the execution of its hedging strategy to manage the interest rate exposure within its risk appetite. The Bank remains within the ΔEVE (Economic Value of Equity) to Tier 1 and the ΔΝΙΙ to Tier 1 Risk Appettite Framework limits across all different interest rate stress scenarios. Market, Foreign Currency and Counterparty Risk The Group has developed a control environment, applying policies and procedures, in accordance with the regulatory framework and international best practices, Market risk is the risk of losses arising from unfavorable changes in the price or volatility of products with underlying interest rates, foreign exchange rates, stock exchange indices, equity prices and commodities. The valuations of bond and derivative positions are monitored on an ongoing basis. Stress tests are conducted on a regular basis in order to assess the impact for each scenario on profit and loss and capital adequacy, in the markets where the Group operates. A detailed risk framework for the monitoring of trading limits, investment limits and counterparty limits has been designed and implemented. This framework involves regularly monitoring trigger events that could signal increased volatility in certain markets. For the mitigation of the interest rate and foreign currency risk of the banking portfolio, hedging strategies are applied using derivatives. During the year, the trading book market risk, as measured by Value at Risk, fluctuated between Euro 0.5 million and Euro 1.8 million. Value at Risk is the maximum loss that could take place in one day with 99% Confidence level. Value at Risk captures foreign currency risk, interest rate risk, price risk and commodity risk in the trading book. With respect to sovereign yields, the 10-year German Government Bond yield increased by 34 basis points (bps) and the 10-year Greek Government Bond yield increased by 16.5 bps and the 10-year Italian Government Bond yield decreased by 18 bps. Non-Financial Risks Non-Financial Risk is defined as the risk of financial or qualitative negative effects resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, IT systems, people (intentionally or unintentionally) and external events. Non-Financial Risk includes Legal Risk, Information & Communication Technology (ICT) Risk, Fraud Risk, Conduct Risk, Compliance Risk, Model Risk, Outsourcing Risk, Data Risk, Human Capital Risk, Physical Damage Risk, Execution Risk and Reputational Risk. The Group has developed the Non-Financial Risk Management Framework which is compliant with the qualitative and quantitative regulatory requirements of the Standardized Approach as defined by the Capital Requirement Directive (CRD). The effective implementation of the Non- Financial Risk Management Framework is monitored by the Group’s competent Non-Financial Risk and Internal Control Committees. The Group Non-Financial Risk Management Framework’s main components aim to manage the Non-Financial risk exposures effectively and proactively. In particular: • Non-Financial Risk Events: management of Non-Financial risk events occurring across the Group • Risk Assessments and Scenario Analysis: various Non-Financial risk assessments are performed (e.g. Risk & Control Self-Assessment, Outsourcing Risk Assessment) and Scenarios are developed to proactively identify and mitigate potential Non-Financial risk exposures. • Indicators: Key Risk Indicators have been developed to Group Entities (both at Risk Appetite Framework and operational level) to monitor the Non-Financial risk exposures • Risk Transfer: The partial transfer of certain types of Non-Financial Risk through the purchase and activation of certain Insurance Policies • Mitigating Actions: Corrective actions are developed and monitored to mitigate the Non-Financial risk exposures • Reporting: Internal and regulatory reports are generated and disseminated to various stakeholders across the Group • Capital Requirements: calculation of capital requirements for Non-Financial risk (under Pillar I and II). In 2024, the following developments occurred: • Redesign of the Outsourcing Risk Assessment Process, including the Outsourcing Risk Questionnaire in order to meet business needs and regulatory requirements. • Insurance Coverage enhancements: Reinsurance structure for the renewal of the insurance contracts has been completed. • Non-Financial Risk Management - New Target Operating Model: The Group introduced a new Operating Model regarding Non-Financial risk management. The new Operating Model aims to further strengthen the existing governance structure, to promote further risk control culture and awareness as well as to increase the effectiveness of the Non-Financial risk management procedures. The new Operating Model introduces the role of Non-Financial Risk Partner across the first Line of Defense Units, who will have an enhanced role in managing the Operational Risk within his/ her Unit. The expected benefits of the new model are the following: minimize of operational risk losses, proactive risk management, effective control performance, enhanced risk culture, facilitation of decision making. • Risk Awareness and Training: a series of risk awareness and training sessions were held regarding Non-Financial risk management. • RAF Indicators Update: the Risk Appetite Indicators regarding Non-Financial Risks are updated and enhanced in order to introduce: o Forward-looking Indicators o More risk sensitive and linked to Pillar II Capital Indicators BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 20 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT o Indicators for all Non-Financial Risk subcategories (Reputational Risk, Legal Risk, Outsourcing Risk, etc.) • Non-Financial Risk Policies Updates: A number of new Policies were developed, and existing ones were updated. o New Policies: Non-Financial Risk Events related to Credit Risk Management Policy, Reputational Risk Committee Charter, Procedures Manual for the Management of Non-Financial Risk Events, Non-Financial Risk Profile, Non-Financial Risks Data Quality Checks, NFR Partners Roles and Responsibilities, Insurance Policies Backtesting Process, COREP Report – Generation Process and Data Quality Controls, Data Quality Issues Identification Process, Incident Management Workflow User Manual. o Update of existing Policies: Non-Financial Risk Management Policy, Non-Financial Risk Scenario Analysis Policy, RCSA Manual, Key Risk Indicators Policy, Loss Events’ Management Manual, Group Non-Financial Risk Events Management Committees, Major PSD Incidents Reporting Procedures Manual, Group Bankers Blanket Bond (BBB) – Cyber Edge Committee, Third Party Lawsuits’ Management Procedures Manual, Reputational Risk Management Policy, Non-Financial Risks & Internal Control Committee, Fraud Risk Management Policy, Non-Financial Risks Control Validation Framework. NON-PERFORMING EXPOSURES (NPEs) MANAGEMENT The Group has set as a key priority the effective management of NPEs, as this will lead not only to the improvement of the Group’s financial strength but also to the restoration of liquidity in the real economy, households and productive business sectors, contributing to the development of the Greek economy in general. EPerforming Exposures Strategy, Recovery and Monitoring unit (the "NSRM") is responsible for the remedial management of the NP-The Non portfolio of the Group, setting the strategic principles and actively monitoring the performance of the NPE reduction plan. The NSRM unit acts as a single point of reference between the Bank and cooperating Servicers, and, among other, is responsible for: ▪ Formulating the NPE recovery strategies ▪ Monitoring the execution of NPE remedial strategies in accordance with the Bank’s policies ▪ Managing the relationship with external Servicers and monitors their performance ▪ Developing business analytics tools and overseeing the NPE performance evolution ▪ Ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements and relevant Service Level Agreements (SLAs) As a result of the dedicated effort towards achieving the NPE target, total NPEs in 31.12.2024 decreased by c. 0.7 billion compared to 31.12.2023 and therefore NPE ratio * reduced to 3.8% as at 31.12.2024. The organic reduction effort focused on long-term restructuring solutions, while the overperformance result in the curing effort led to surpassing the 2024 target. Targeted campaigns and new product offerings also contributed to the positive results of the organic deleveraging in 2024, an effort that will continue throughout 2025. Furthermore, portfolio sales remain pivotal in accelerating the NPE deleveraging of the Group. The Group within 2024 classified the following NPE perimeters as Assets Held For Sale: • A NPE portfolio (Project GAIA I). • A NPE portfolio (Project GAIA II). • A Cypriot NPE portfolio (Project ACAC) More information on above are provided in the section “Significant Ecents”. The macro challenges are expected to continue throughout 2025 – albeit less intense – the Bank intends to capitalize on the proactive management framework, leveraging knowledge and experience, upon the most sensitive parts of our loan portfolio. This, along with the improved internal data analysis and the enhanced servicing practices (through CEPAL), will allow: • to successfully defend the strong credit standing of our loan book, • to further reduce the NPEs inflows, and • to achieve the ambitious NPEs deleveraging targets REAL ESTATE OWNED ASSETS (REOs) MANAGEMENT In addition to the efficient and effective management of its NPEs, the Group has captured within its strategic priorities the successful management of REOs through the subsidiary Αlpha Real Estate Services S.A. with the aim to: • Monitor the repossession procedure (asset onboarding). • Coordinate the asset management operations through the Group’s Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs). • Supervise and coordinate asset management and development. • Supervise and coordinate repossessed asset commercialization, in accordance with the applicable Group policy. • Set and monitor the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for the collaborating asset management agencies (internal units and external collaborators). In early 2024, an update of the existing Bank's and Group's Asset Management and Valuation Accounting Policy was carried out, aiming to outline guidelines and procedures for a more effective administration, operation and maintenance of real estate assets. Real Estate Management and Appraisal Policy addresses acquisition, leasing, valuation and overall strategies and assigns responsibilities to the related units. Additionally, a website was created to facilitate a more effective promotion of non-own-used properties and REOs. Through the website as a main point of first contact with interested parties, Alpha Real Estate Services S.A., during 2024, has managed to dispose assets representing a book value of approximately Euro 22 million in Greece and Euro 39 million in Cyprus and SEE (excluding sales of Project Skyline), achieving the targeted sale prices. This demand was mainly driven by inflation which traditionally favor less liquid assets. * NPE ratio is presented in the in the Appendix of the Βoard οf Directors’ Management Report. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 21 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The forecasts indicate that the strong interest in the real estate market will continue in 2025, however we acknowledge that the legal framework for real estate assets sales (transfer of ownership) remains challenging, albeit improving in recent years with advancements such as real estate cadastre penetration and the e-property platform from AADE which facilitates the sales execution. At the end of 2024, Alpha Bank, through its 100% subsidiary Alpha Group Investments Limited, has completed the sale of a 65% equity stake in Skyline Real Estate Single Member S.A. (“Skyline”) to P&E Investments Axiopoiisis kai Anaptyxis Akiniton Société Anonyme (“P&E”), an investment vehicle controlled by Dimand S.A., Premia Properties REIC and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) (the “Transaction”). The completion of the Transaction marks the conclusion of the largest open market real estate portfolio transaction in Greece in recent years. The transcaction perimeter consists of a portfolio of assets of multiple types, including offices, commercial real estate, residential and industrial or logistics assets. The portfolio will be either redeveloped and repositioned for rental use or sold directly to the market. The perimeter includes approximately Euro 0.2 billion in repossessed assets contributing to Alpha Bank, post project Skyline, having one of the lowest stock of such assets within the Greek banking system. In the context of the Transaction, Alpha Real Estate Services SA (“ARES”), the listed real estate servicer, entered into an initial 7-year Asset Management Services Agreement with Skyline. Benefiting from its long and successful track record, ARES will offer property and facility management, as well as agency, technical and project management services. Furthermore, the Group has completed the sale of its remaining properties in Bulgaria and, as a result, will terminate its presence in the country. The fundamentals of the Greek economy coupled with the technical characteristics of the domestic market continue to support a favorable trajectory for real estate assets over the medium term. CAPITAL ADEQUACY The scope of the Group’s Capital Strategy pertains to maintaining a strong capital adequacy both from an economic and from a regulatory perspective. It aims at monitoring and adjusting the Group’s capital levels, taking into consideration the capital markets’ demand and supply, in an effort to achieve the optimal balance between economic and regulatory considerations. The Group’s Risk and Capital Strategy sets specific risk limits, based on the risk appetite, and monitors deviations therefrom. The objectives of the Group’s capital management policy are to ensure that the Group has sufficient capital to cover the risks of its business, to support its strategy and to comply with the regulatory framework at all times. 1. Supervisory review and evaluation process (SREP) According to the Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP) 2023 decision, communicated by the European Central Bank (ECB), for 2024 Alpha Services and Holdings S.A. is required to meet on a consolidated basis an Overall Capital Requirement (OCR) on the Total Capital ratio of at least 14.69% [the OCR includes the Capital Conservation Buffer (CCB) of 2.50%, the Other Systemically Important Institutions (O-SII) buffer of 1% and the applicable Countercyclical Capital Buffer (CCyB) of 0.19%, mainly stemming from the contribution of the subsidiaries, for which further information can be found in the Note Capital Adequacy of the financial statements]. The OCR consists of the minimum threshold of the Total Equity Ratio (8%), in accordance with Article 92 (1) of the Capital Requirements Regulation (“CRR”), and the additional supervisory requirements for Pillar II (P2R), in accordance with Article 16 (2) (a) of Regulation 1024/2013/EU, which amount to 3.0%, as well as the combined security requirements (i.e., CCB, O-SII, CCyB), in accordance with Article 128 (6) of Directive 2013/36/EU. The minimum ratio should be kept on an ongoing basis, considering the CRR/CRD IV Transitional Provisions. On December 2024 Alpha Services and Holdings S.A. received the SREP decision 2024 regarding the Capital Requirements for the year 2025. The additional supervisory requirements for Pillar II (P2R) remains unchanged to 3.0%. The Bank of Greece has set the O-SII buffer at 1 % for 2024, and the Countercyclical Capital Buffer at 0% for Greece, for the year 2024. In addition, under Executive Committee Act 235/1/07.10.2024 the Bank of Greece has decided to set the countercyclical capital buffer rate for Greece at 0.25%, applicable from 1 October 2025. The target rate for the positive neutral rate of the countercyclical capital buffer in Greece at 0.5%. The capital adequacy requirements set by the SSM/ECB are used by the Group as the basis for its capital management. The Group seeks to maintain sufficient capital to ensure that these requirements are met. In response to COVID-19 pandemic and to encourage banks to grant new loans, the European Commission decided to revise the existing regulatory framework by bringing forward regulations that would normally come into effect with the CRR 2/CRD V framework. As a result, on 22nd June, 2020 the EU published Regulation (EU) No 2020/873 in its Official Journal, which included amendments in relation to the capital requirements set by Regulations (EU) No 575/2013 and 876/2019. The revised Regulation includes, inter alia, article 473a which introduces provisions aiming to mitigate the negative impact on the regulatory capital of the banks from the increase in the expected credit loss resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic. This article extends to another two years the ability to add back to the regulatory capital the expected credit losses recognized in 2020 and afterwards relating to performing financial instruments. This transition period was effective until the end of 2024. 2. IFRS 9 Capital Impact Regarding the International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) 9, the Group makes use of Article 473a of Regulation (EU) No 2395/2017 of the European Parliament and of the Council, amended by Regulation (EU) No 873/2020, and applies the transitional provisions for the calculation of Capital Adequacy on both solo and consolidated basis. The Group is adequately capitalized to meet the needs arising from the application of the Standard, and the impact from the initial implementation of the Standard has been fully incorporated in the ratios since January 2023. On June 22, 2020 as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic the EU adopted Regulation No 2020/873 of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Regulations (EU) No 575/2013 and (EU) 2019/876. The Bank has adopted art 473a of the Regulation (EU) 2020/873. The purpose of the regulation is to mitigate the negative impact on the regulatory capital of the Bank from the increase in the expected credit loss BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 22 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT as a result from the Covid-19 pandemic. This article extents to another two year period the ability to add-back to the regulatory capital the expected credit losses recognized in 2020 and afterwards relating to performing financial instruments. This transition period is effective until the end of 2024. More specific, the weighting factors were set at 1.00 for the first two years (2020 and 2021), 0.75 in 2022, 0.5 in 2023 and 0.25 in 2024. 3. Capital Adequacy Ratios On 31.12.2024, the consolidated Common Equity Tier (CET) 1 capital stood at Euro 4.9 billion, while the Risk Weighted Assets (RWAs) amounted to Euro 30.3 billion, resulting in a CET 1 ratio of 16.3%, up by 1.90% versus 31.12.2023. 4. Shareholder Remuneration Policy Alpha Services and Holdings has updated its shareholder remuneration policy following the restoration of profitability. The policy document has been approved by the Board of Directors (BoD) on the Meeting of 12.12.2024. The Policy sets the framework (legal, accounting, regulatory) under which the Bank may proceed to a dividend distribution and is reviewed at least annually in the context of ICAAP and/or as often as necessary in order to reflect amendments in all applicable laws and regulations. Alpha Services and Holdings applied and received on 05.06.2024 the approval for the distribution of Euro 122 million to its shareholders (20% of Group's net profit for financial year 2023). Following the approval of the Annual General Meeting which took place on 24.7.2024 the Bank proceeded with the Distribution to its shareholders. Based on the above and in view of the capital accretive Business Plan for 2024-2026, the Bank aims to apply up to a 43% dividend pay out ratio on FY2024 reported profits and 50% for the following two years (2025 and 2026 results). In this context, from 2025 onwards the Bank is committed to accelerate DTC amortization for prudential purposes by voluntarily deducting it from capital ahead of the scheduled timeline. This action will improve Bank’s capital quality and increase its strategic options for capital deployment. The acceleration of DTC will be set equal to 29% of planned dividends. 5. EU-Wide Stress Test 2025 On July 5, 2024, the European Banking Authority (EBA) published for informal consultation its draft methodology, templates, and guidance for the 2025 EU-wide stress test. This step marks the beginning of the dialogue with the banking industry and builds upon the methodology used in the 2023 exercise, with improvements reflecting new insights and regulatory changes. On January 20, 2025, The EBA launched the 2025 EU-wide stress test and released the macroeconomic scenarios. The EBA expects to publish the results of the exercise at the beginning of August 2025. The 2025 EU-wide stress test will assess the resilience of the European banking sector in the current uncertain and changing macroeconomic environment under a baseline and adverse scenario during a three-year time horizon, from 2025 to 2027. The adverse scenario is based on a narrative of hypothetical worsening of geopolitical tensions, with large, negative, and persistent trade and confidence shocks having strong adverse effects on private consumption and investments, both domestically and globally. The worsening of economic prospects is associated with a sustained drop in EU GDP by 6.3% cumulatively, in the period 2025-2027. At the end of the horizon, unemployment in the EU is projected to be 6.1 percentage points (ppts) above its baseline level. Inflation shifts upwards to 5.0% and 3.5% respectively in 2025 and 2026, before falling back to 1.9% in 2027. As in the 2023 EU-wide stress test, this year’s scenario includes information on the growth of Gross Value Added (GVA) in 16 sectors of economic activity. Such break-down will help better assess EU banks’ performance depending on their business model and sectoral exposures. Some important changes are introduced, notably the integration of the Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR3) that is implemented on January 1, 2025. It also considers the Commission’s announcement to postpone the application date of the fundamental review of the trading book (FRTB). Other enhancements include the centralization of net interest income (NII) projections and advancements in the market risk methodology to increase risk sensitivity. For the purpose of the EU-wide 2025 Stress Test, the Bank is part of an EBA sample of 64 banks – thereof 51 from countries which are members of the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM) – covering roughly 75% of total banking sector assets in the EU and Norway. The expanded geographical reach and incorporation of proportionality features aim to boost efficiency while ensuring the relevance and transparency of the results. 6. Deferred Tax Assets (DTAS) The Deferred Tax Assets (DTAs) which are included in the Group’s capital base as at 31.12.2024 stand at Euro 4.8 billion. According to article 5 of Law 4303/17.10.2014, as amended by article 4 of Law 4340/1.11.2015, on the “Recapitalization of financial institutions and other provisions of the Ministry of Finance” and Laws 4549/2018 and 4722/2020 and, most recently, by Law 4831/2021, DTAs that have been recognized and are due to the debit difference arising from the Private Sector Involvement (PSI) and the accumulated provisions and other general losses due to credit risk, which were accounted until 30.06.2015, are converted into final and settled claims against the Greek State. The above mentioned are set into force in case the accounting result for the period after taxes is a loss, according to the audited and approved by the Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders financial statements. In accordance with article 39 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council on “prudential requirements for credit institutions and investment firms” (the “Capital Requirements Regulation – CRR”), which amended Regulation (EU) No 648/2012, a risk weight of 100% will be applied to the abovementioned DTAs that may be converted into tax credit, instead of being deducted from the Regulatory Equity Capital. On 31.12.2024, the amount of DTAs, which is eligible for the scope of the aforementioned Law, is the same for the Bank and the Group and is included in the Common Equity Tier 1, stands at Euro 2.4 billion and constitutes 49.2% of the Group’s Common Equity Tier 1 and 8% of the respective Weighted Assets. Any change in the above framework that will result in the non-recognition of DTAs as a tax credit will have an adverse effect on the Bank’s and the Group’s capital adequacy. 7. Capital Requirements under Pillar I The approaches adopted for the calculation of the capital requirements under Pillar I are determined by the policy of the Group in conjunction with factors such as the nature and type of risks the Group undertakes, the level and complexity of the Group’s business and other factors such as the degree of readiness of the information and software systems. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 23 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Capital Requirements for Credit Risk are calculated using the Standardized Approach (STA). The advanced method is used for the valuation of financial collaterals. For the Operational Risk capital requirements, the Group follows the STA. As regards Market Risk, the Bank uses for the significant exposures a Value at Risk (VaR) model developed at Bank level and approved by the Bank of Greece. Additionally, STA is used to calculate Market Risk for the remaining non-significant exposures by the financial institutions of the Group at solo level as also on Group level. 8. Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP) and Internal Liquidity Adequacy Assessment Process (ILAAP) The ICAAP and ILAAP are an integral part of the Internal Control System (ICS) of the Group. They are aligned with best practices and the general principles and requirements set by the regulatory framework, including the guidelines provided by the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM) and/or the European Banking Authority (EBA). These guidelines allow for: • The identification, analysis, monitoring and the overall assessment of risks to capital and liquidity. • The improvement of various systems/procedures/policies related to the assessment and management of risks. • The estimation of the Internal Capital required for the coverage of all risks and the determination, the management and the monitoring of the liquidity buffer. • Capital and liquidity planning, taking also into consideration the Group’s risk appetite and the approved business plan. ICAAP and ILAAP are integrated into the business decision-making and risk management processes of the Group, contributing to its continuity by ensuring its capital and liquidity adequacy from different but complementary perspectives (e.g. the economic perspective and the normative perspective), while both perspectives mutually inform each other and are integrated into all material business activities and decisions. The Board of Directors has the overall responsibility of the ICAAP/ILAAP implementation with a clear and transparent assignment of responsibilities to the Risk Management Committee and to Senior Management Members. The Board of Directors, following the Risk Management Committee endorsement, approves the results of the ICAAP and the ILAAP and signs the Group’s Capital Adequacy Statement (CAS) and the Liquidity Adequacy Statement (LAS). The related reports are updated at least annually or on a more frequent basis if material changes occur and are submitted to the SSM of the European Central Bank (ECB). The ICAAP and ILAAP Reports are assessed yearly by the ECB as part of the Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP). 9. Regulatory Liquidity On one hand, the deposits’ increase and the new issuance of Εuro 300 million and, on the other hand, the credit expansion and the TLTRO repayment are the main drivers for the regulatory liquidity ratios’ evolution. As of 31 st of December 2024, the Group’s Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) stands at 199.8% and Group Net Stable Funding ratio (NSFR) is estimated at 125.3% % respectively. It is also noticed that HQLA (High Quality Liquid Assets) to total Deposits ratio was further improved compared to previous quarter and stands at 32.5%. 10. MREL The Minimum Requirement for own funds and Eligible Liabilities (MREL) constitutes a buffer that the Bank has to maintain in order to absorb losses in the event of resolution. The minimum levels of MREL are determined by the Single Resolution Board (SRB) on an annual basis. On 22 April 2024, Alpha Bank S.A. received a communication letter from the European Single Resolution Board (SRB) including its decision for the minimum requirements for own funds and eligible liabilities (MREL). The requirements are based on the Recovery and Resolution Directive (“BRRD2”), which was incorporated into the Greek Law 4799/2021 on 18.5.2021. At the same time, by the same decision, the Resolution Authority defined the single point of entry (SPE) resolution strategy. The letter also sets out the intermediate MREL targets to be met from 1 January 2024 up to 31 December 2024, i.e. 18.81% (excluding CBR) of TREA and 5.91% of LRE. Following the Decision of SRB on 20 December 2024, Alpha Bank received the binding Minimum Requirement of Own Funds and Eligible Liabilities (MREL), according to which the Bank needs to meet from 30 June 2025 on a consolidated basis an MREL requirement of 23.57% * of Total Risk Exposure Amount (TREA) and 5.91% of Leverage Exposure (LRE). The Decision also sets out that the binding target of AB SA also reflect the MCC † allowance. The said MREL requirements expressed as a percentage of TREA do not include the Combined Buffer Requirement (CBR), equal to 3.69% as of 31.12.2024. In Europe, the Single Resolution Board (SRB) published a new package containing Minimum Bail-in Data Templates (MBDT) and released its 2024 MREL policy. This policy allows adjustments in calibrating the Market Confidence Charge (MCC) and monitoring eligibility, among other changes. Meanwhile, the EBA published two consultations, one on the resolution plan reporting framework and another on independent evaluators. The EBA also released a monitoring report on AT1, T2, and TLAC/MREL instruments, suggesting that capital instruments (AT1 and T2) should have a prudential valuation reflecting their loss absorption capacity. It recommended using the carrying amount instead of the nominal for prudential matters and left open the possibility of extending this treatment to MREL-eligible instruments for resolution, a decision for the European resolution authority. Furthermore, the Resolution Authority has decided that Alpha Bank S.A. is not subject to requirement for subordinated MREL . The MREL requirements, including the multi-year transitional period, are subject to annual review / approval from SRB.On 31 December 2024, the Bank’s MREL ratio stood at 29.04%, which is well above the interim non-binding target of 22.50% of the Total Risk Exposure Amount (TREA) (effective 01.01.2024, including CBR). The ratio includes the profit of the financial reporting period that ended on 31 December 2024 post a provision for dividend payout. REGULATORY ENVIROMENT FOR ANTI-MONEY LAUNDY AND FINANCIAL SECTORS’ DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION * Without CBR ** Market Confidence Charge BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 24 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Developments in the context of the financial sector's digital transformation A new AML/CFT Regulatory “Package” has been adopted by the European Council and has been published in the EU's Official Journal on 19 June 2024. The EU “Package” consists of four pieces of legislation: • The EU “single rulebook” Regulation (“AMLR”) • The 6th Anti-Money Laundering Directive (“AMLD”) • The Regulation establishing the European Anti-Money Laundering Authority (“AMLA”) • The revised Transfer of Funds Regulation (“TFR”) The AMLR contains several new provisions including the extension of the scope of obliged entities, the organizational obligations of the obliged entities in terms of internal policies, procedures, controls and regular risk assessments in order to implement the risk-based approach against ML/FT cases. Additionally, harmonised and much tighter Customer Due Diligence measures are introduced, while compliance with targeted Financial Sanctions is becoming a priority goal under the new EU AML/CTF regime. The provisions on beneficial ownership transparency state detailed rules for identifying the Beneficial Owners, while new rules are introduced allowing obliged entities to establish partnerships for sharing of information necessary for compliance with AML/ CTF regulations, including the reporting of suspicious activities. The AMLD6 provisions cover the delegation of additional powers to Supervisory Authorities and detailed rules on the responsibilities and powers of the Financial Intelligence Groups, as well as their direct access to financial, administrative and law enforcement information, including tax information. The AMLR and AMLD6 are to start applying in July 2027. The AML/CFT Package also establish a new European AML supervisory authority, the Anti Money Laundering Agency (AMLA), based in Frankfurt that will commence its operations on July 1, 2025. AMLA's most important responsibility is the direct supervision of Selected Obliged Entities (SOEs) while through its oversight of National Competent Authorities (NCAs), AMLA indirectly supervises Non-Selected Obliged Entities, ensuring that NCAs proper AML/CTF practices. Moreover, AMLA aims to harmonize supervisory practices across the EU by developing common guidelines, standards, and methodologies. AMLA will adopt more detailed rules supplementing the AMLR by issuing regulatory technical standards. The FTR - Regulation (EU) 2023/1113 on information accompanying transfers of funds and certain crypto-assets is a recast of the Regulation (EU) 2015/847 (issued together with the Crypto-asset Regulation - MiCAR) and is applicable since 30 December 2024. The Bank has incorporated the FTR provisions, as well as the main principles of the AMRD6 and the AMLR in its updated AML Group Policy and is progressing for the prompt and effective endorsement of all required provisions of the “Package”. Regulation in the context of the financial sector's digital transformation In 2024, the European authorities maintained their focus on digitalization and on the strengthening of the pan-European payments market, in line with the digital strategy defined by the European Commission (EC) in 2020. The EU approved the first AI Regulation, imposing obligations employing a risk-based approach. AI systems are classified under one of the following risk categories: unacceptable risk, high risk, transparency risk and minimal risk. General-purpose AI models, including generative AI, are classified under the systemic risk category if they fulfill specific criteria. High-risk applications, like credit scoring and insurance, will be regulated from August 2026. General-purpose AI obligations start in August 2025. As part of our Digital Transformation, we have set up a dedicated team to oversee the development and deployment of Artificial Intelligence (AI) models, to ensure their effectiveness and compliance with quality standards, including data quality assessment, model development, human oversight, and post-market monitoring. The EC also consulted on AI's impact on financial services and regulations. In addition, discussions about the European Commission's proposal for the new Financial Data Access Regulation (FIDA) are ongoing. The regulation sets requirements for financial institutions to facilitate data sharing with authorized third parties regarding savings, credit, and investment products. In the Payments space, important legislative initiatives under negotiation include the new Payment Services Regulation (PSR) and Directive (PSD3), which will update the requirements for payment services in the EU, introduce significant changes in fraud prevention, and account access services (open banking). The Instant Payments Regulation, effective April 2024, aims to ensure instant payments are fully available by the end of 2025 across all EU and EEA countries. The “Payments Package” promoted by the European Commission constitutes an opportunity to establish a seamless pan-European payments experience for both consumers and merchants. In Greece, we are aligning with this direction through the efforts of Alpha Bank and the domestic banking system. We have introduced IRIS payments, a Peer to Peer (P2P) and Peer to Business (P2B) service built on instant payments. Additionally, we are working on enhancing customer experience, strengthening our fraud and risk management framework, and increasing user adoption. Moreover, the European project for a potential issuance of a digital euro — a central bank digital currency (CBDC) for retail use — progressed last year. The European Commission's proposal to establish the legal framework for the potential digital euro, outlining its main features and distribution model, is under negotiation in the European Council and Parliament. The ECB continues with the preparation phase to lay the project's foundations and determine several elements of the design. As Alpha Bank, we participate in this process through the Hellenic Bank Association and the European Banking Federation. This phase will conclude in 2025, after which the ECB Governing Council will decide whether to proceed to the second preparation phase, paving the way for potential issuance. Markets in Cryptoassets Regulation (MiCA), has been fully implemented in Europe, setting obligations for crypto-asset issuers and service providers. ESMA and EBA finalized MiCA's second-level regulation. The ESAs are developing regulations for DORA, effective in 2025, to ensure financial sector resilience. Internationally, the Basel Committee issued a consultation on principles for third-party risk management TRANSFORMATION Transformation Program In 2024, the Group continued the successful Transformation journey. In the area of Wholesale Banking, following the successful assessment of the existing service model, the design of the new target operating model of Wholesale Banking is already in progress and is expected to radically change the way Wholesale Banking operates with significant anticipated benefits for customers. In addition, increasing the sales time of Relationship Managers by relieving them from time-consuming administrative tasks remains a priority which will be achieved through new credit tools in full swing ("SME Workflow" / "Corporate Workflow" / "Swimlanes - Digital credit papers DCPs") enhancing the level of automation in an effective way. Most of the improvements and new tools have already been completed or are expected to be completed within 2025 based on existing plan. With regard to new digital products and BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 25 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT services offered via digital channels, the first phase of the project for issuing letters of guarantee "eLG" was completed, while Business service packages, “My Business Benefit” was launched during 2024. Within the scope of its Wealth Management Services Transformation, the Bank has decided to create a unified wealth ecosystem to support the ambition of all customer segments, expanding the Services offered and covering all functions across the wealth value chain through all channels, thereby strengthening the Bank’s position as leader in the wealth management sector. In this context, in 2024, the Bank set forth several actions to revamp its system infrastructure and redesign its operating model in wealth management. The implementation is to begin in 2025 and will bring significant benefits to customers such as faster service, simplified onboarding processes, improved digital services and at the same time will optimize internal processes and create further efficiencies to Relationship Managers (RMs). Finally, the Bank continued the automation, simplification, and centralization of processes that are taking place in the Branches, with the main goal of enhancing customer experience and operational efficiency. Digital Transformation and Innovation Activities The Group, understanding the constantly evolving banking needs of its customers, continues to dynamically execute its Strategic Plan which emphasizes on the design and implementation of digital solutions aiming to enhance the customer's banking experience. Following the initial setup of the Digital Factory in 2023, the improvement of its operations was set as a goal, leading to the delivery of significant digital products and services, which are presented in more detail below and nd to expand further in 2024, reaching 15 agile working groups (squads) in order to support major projects of the Digital Strategy such as the Mobile App for Individual Customers. These working groups are supported by User Experience (UX) and Customer Experience (CX) experts, so that the digital services offered are more user-friendly increasing customers’ satisfaction. The Bank also strengthened the utilization and use of Advanced Analytics, integrating specific Artificial Intelligence tools for processing Big Data and Unstructured Data. In this manner, the utilization of data and information expands decision-making processes and functions, thereby enhancing operational efficiency and facilitating more precise and informed business decisions. In addition, the Digital Sales teams continue to successfully achieve the digital penetration goals, particularly in the consumer lending segment. Digital Banking The year 2024 was marked by strategic decisions and investments for the Group, focusing on enhancing human resources, developing innovative digital services and upgrading technological infrastructure. Over the course of the year, new digital products were developed that meet customer needs and expand their choices. Through the digital channels, both individuals and businesses gained access to enhanced services designed with a focus on ease of use and real time support. The contribution of digital channels remained crucial reaching the percentage of 98% of total transaction volumes. This performance highlights the continued trust that the Group’s customers place in the digital platforms. Specifically, transactions conducted via e- Banking presented significant growth, with the number of transactions increasing by 16% and their value rising by 12% compared to 2023. • e-Banking for Retail customers E-Banking for retail customers recorded substantial growth, with transaction volumes increasing by 22% and transaction values rising by 11% compared to 2023. A 7% increase compared to 2023 was also observed in customer preference for e-Banking registration, with 1 in 3 customers (38%) choosing to complete their registration online. Additionally, noteworthy is the ratio of customers who prefer using the myAlpha Mobile app, with 4 out of 5 e-Banking users using the mobile app on a monthly basis. In 2024, significant new products and solutions were made available to the retail customers via the digital channels. Specifically, the ability to open a privileged account via the myAlpha Mobile App and myAlpha Web for retail users was introduced, alongside with the ability to close a current account via e-Banking, provided significant convenience to the clientele. At the same time, the myAlpha Quick Loan became available through the Skroutz.gr marketplace, offering our customers even greater flexibility in their online shopping experience. Furthermore, the option to block an e-Banking subscription via myAlpha Web for retail users in case of suspected fraud was introduced, as well as the ability for freelancers and sole proprietors to initiate their banking relationship with Alpha Bank (open a current account and obtain e- Banking Business codes) through myAlpha Web for retail users. In 2024, the automation of certificate issuance continued, with three of them being offered instantly through e-Banking, while as of December, customers obtain the myAlpha Cyber Security new product solution, for maximum protection of their online transactions and personal data. Understanding the importance of customer education and continuous support to create a comprehensive digital banking experience and develop valuable relationships, the e-Banking Walkthrough team’s activity continued dynamically throughout 2024. Through this initiative, specialized staff provides daily personalized training via video calls, helping individual customers familiarize themselves with using e-Banking and ensuring the security of their digital transactions. • e-Banking for Business customers In 2024, the use of e-Banking for Businesses increased significantly, both in volume and value of transactions, with over 60% of new corporate clients choosing Alpha Bank's digital channels to start their banking relationship with us. In year 2024, myAlpha Web for Business users was enriched with new features that facilitate and improve the experience of corporate customers.

Two new transaction packages for businesses, myBusiness Benefit Standard and myBusiness Benefit Advanced, were introduced via e-Banking, offering significant financial benefits to businesses and allowing the choice of additional packages for simple import transactions with the new Imports and Imports Plus packages. For better and more immediate service, the myAlpha Randez-vous service was added to the myAlpha Web for business users platform, allowing its use without additional authentication, saving valuable time. To alleviate branch congestion from daily tasks such as updating contact information, corporate users can also update their business contact details, such as the business mobile phone and email, via the myAlpha Web for Businesses platform. To further strengthen transaction security in business e-Banking, the Bank has implemented additional measures to ensure the protection of corporate data and transactions. As of 2024, the 6-digit myAlpha Code is required for all transactions to third parties, as well as upon logging into myAlpha Web for Business users.

More specifically: • The replacement of the ATM fleet with state-of-the-art machines, completed at the end of 2023, offered significant benefits such as faster transactions, reduced waiting times, improved user experience, and advanced security mechanisms. • Emphasizing accessibility for all our customers, the voice guidance service for visually impaired users saw an 12% increase in usage compared to 2023. • A new system was integrated into the ATM network offering online fault monitoring and dispute resolution, aiming for faster problem detection and resolution and, consequently, increased network availability.

To increase the Bank’s velocity and ensure UX consistency between all the digital assets of the bank the UX/UI team has designed a new, re- usable Digital Guideline system. Customer Experience (CX) In 2024 communication was performed with more than 28 thousand Individuals and Business customers to identify customer satisfaction drivers as well as improvement points across segments along with their Net Promoter Score (NPS) evaluation. Digital and Call Center user data were analyzed using NLP (Natural Language Processing) by the Advanced Analytics team to identify the critical issues. All issues have been sorted horizontally across the Bank with the processing of more than 30 thousand user cases. As a result, a series of improvement and close of the loop actions were identified and designed, and Design thinking workshops were organized between channels and Customer Departments. In addition, we completed in May 2024, the Front-Line Survey of Wholesale Employees, with 80% participation and critical input for the customer experience of Commercial Banking sector. NPS (Net Promoter Score) is more than a metric for the Bank and for this reason we embarked in Q2 2024 into a strategic project with the support and active participation of all Business Areas in the creation of a new NPS System and governance. This will put CX metrics and insights in the center of the Bank’s decisions and in the focus of management, along with all key customer journeys that are needed to be re-designed in order to improve the NPS.

Several pilot projects leveraging generative AI (genAI) technologies were completed and the new AA platform was successfully deployed , migrating all critical AA models (150+ data flows) and laying the foundation for the deployment of the more advanced genAI use cases. We implemented a pilot digital assistant (chatbot) for our employees, which utilizes genAI to answer our colleagues' questions in natural language form by searching and summarizing in a few seconds information from documents like bank policies, internal processes and user manuals. We are planning for the full rollout of the digital assistant to the entire document base within 2025 expecting efficiency gains in employee productivity. The Bank has made significant strides in leveraging Generative AI technologies to enhance the productivity and efficiency of its employees.

Innovation Innovation constitutes a core element of Alpha Bank’s DNA and corporate values. It is what has historically guided the bank to deliver pioneering products and services that make a positive and lasting difference in the lives of our customers. Recognizing the need to manage innovation in a systematic manner, the Bank established in 2024, the Digital Strategy and Innovation unit, under the Chief Digital Officer, along with the associated innovation governance framework and a mandate to explore, test/experiment and deploy value-creation ideas beyond traditional banking leveraging digital technologies and partnerships with members of the FinTech ecosystem (in Greece and internationally) In this context, the new unit scouted and assessed more than 60 startups/scaleups during the year for potential collaboration, with 6 of them already having, either concluded or in-progress pilot tests. Indicative examples include 1. A successful internal pilot with a Spanish startup (3 rd place winner of Alpha Bank's international innovation competition, FinQuest 2022) offering a mobile app to educate, inspire and mobilize bank employees to complete daily challenges and adopt responsible daily practices in line with the ESG framework and goals of the bank. During the 3-month pilot, 2,026 actions were completed, resulting in 194K tons of water saved, a reduction in CO2 emissions by 667kg, and an energy saving of 1200 kWh. This initiative received the Gold award in the "CSR Apps" category at the Hellenic Responsible Business Awards 2024 and will be rolled out to all staff in 2025 2.

A successful pilot for Alpha Bank’s first digital assistant in alpha.gr in collaboration with a Greek AI startup. The assistant successfully addresses customer queries both in Greek and English, using a combination of three AI technologies: Natural Language Processing, Natural Language Understanding, and Generative AI.

The transition of AlphaBank London to the MyAlpha mobile app will unlock new capabilities and conveniences for cross-border banking as it will support all the functionality planned for the launch of AlphaBlue according to the subsidiary's new business plan. ➢ Alpha Bank Cyprus Alpha Bank Cyprus in alignment with its strategic commitment to elevate and accelerate transformation across the Bank, in 2024, has achieved significant advancements in its customer facing digital platform, Alpha 360, as well as implementing internal automations combined with processes improvements.

Athens, March 6, 2024 THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER DIMITRIS C. TSITSIRAGOS ID No A 00808440 VASSILIOS E. PSALTIS ID. No ΑΙ 666591 BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 37 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Sustainability Statement FY 2024 GENERAL INFORMATION [BP-1] General basis for preparation of sustainability statements The Sustainability Statement has been prepared on a consolidated basis, similar with the basis of preparation for the financial statements. The Statement covers information for Alpha Services and Holdings Group (hereinafter the “Group”), including material impacts, risks and opportunities pertaining to its own operations and downstream value chain. Specifically, the information of the sustainability statement is extended to include information connected with the Group through the offering of financial products/services to its Customers related to the material impact on climate change. The Group monitors especially the carbon-related data of its Customers, enhancing its business model, aligning its strategy and incorporating actions, to holistically promote sustainable practices, enhance transparency, and mitigate reputational, financial, and regulatory risks, while fostering long-term value creation for all stakeholders. The list of all entities included in the present Sustainability Statement can be found on the ‘Νοte 44 Group Consolidated Companies’ of the Financial Statement. The largest subsidiary of the Group is Alpha Bank S.A. (denoted hereinafter as “Alpha Bank” or the “Bank”). The Group is in the process of continuously improving the level of availability of information, methodologies used and alignment of actions and targets currently implemented from the Bank and all its subsidiaries, as well as improving its monitoring and management approach regarding its joint ventures and associates. No subsidiary undertakings included in the consolidation are exempted from consolidated or individual sustainability reporting, and no information is omitted corresponding to intellectual property, know-how or innovation. Furthermore, no exemption has been used for disclosures linked to developments in the course of negotiations. The Sustainability Statement has received an Independent Limited Assurance in accordance with ISAE 3000 (Revised). [BP-2] Disclosures in relation to specific circumstances Time horizons It is noted that any reference in the Sustainability Statement to short, medium and long-term horizons are aligned with the definitions of ESRS (“short-term” time horizon refers to 2025, “mid-term” to 2026-2030, and “long-term” to the future time period after 2030). Value chain estimations and relevant uncertainty Where relevant and applicable, the Group has utilized methods to estimate value chain data. This was the case for the estimation of Scope 3 emissions and their disaggregation per subsidiary, economic activity and source type, as disclosed in [E1-6] Gross Scopes 1,2,3 and Total GHG emissions. More specifically, indirect sources used for the calculation of some Scope 3 emissions categories were: • For Alpha Bank S.A. DEFRA 2024 Conversion Factor (Business Travel-land/Cars by size/Medium/CNG) was used. • For Alpha Bank London Ltd, the equivalent carbon footprint factor from DEFRA Guide (2024), as well as the PCAF’s European building emission factor database, were deployed. • For Alpha Bank Cyprus, DEFRA 2024 (Business Travel-land» + «WTT- pass vehs and travel- land.), as well as PCAF’s European building emission factor database, were deployed. Adhering to the PCAF Standard guidance, the Group prioritized obligors' actual emissions and activity data in order to calculate financed emissions. In cases where actual emissions were not publicly available/easily retrievable, proxies have been developed as a means to estimate emissions, resulting in lower data quality. These proxies were calculated using activity proxies rather than proxies based on financial data. It is noted that regarding quantitative metrics and monetary amounts that are under disclosure, no case of high level of measurement uncertainty has been identified and overall, the uncertainty level of methodologies and estimations used is acceptable. However, the Group continuously aims to increase transparency and accuracy to its sustainability reporting and to improve data quality. Therefore, where primary data is available, the Group prioritizes the utilization of this data over estimations and assess and improves its methodologies for measurements. Changes in preparation or presentation of sustainability information In comparison to the previous reporting period, no metrics previously used have been replaced. Furthermore, no comparative figures are included in the present Sustainability Statement, as this is the first Sustainability Statement according to ESRS standards.

The list of the material IROs addressed by the administrative, management and supervisory bodies are presented under [SBM-3] Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model. [GOV-3] Integration of sustainability-related performance in incentive schemes As per the 2024 Remuneration Policy of the BoD Members a Combined Bonus Plan (CBP) has been established which explicitly incorporates ESG criteria for Material Risk Takers including SLT and directors. This includes short and long-term performance metrics, which may vary annually and are always approved by the BoD. In terms of short-term metrics and as part of the criteria for the payment of variable remuneration, specific ESG-related metrics are included that concern actions and initiatives that the Alpha Bank S.A. may be developing. In terms of long-term performance metrics, the CBP includes KPIs, such as sustainable finance disbursement targets, and female participation at middle management level and above. These metrics are linked to the material impacts, risks and opportunities identified through our due diligence processes. As such, ESG criteria are incorporated in long-term incentive remuneration and are weighted at 20%. Specific GHG targets have not been included yet in the variable remuneration framework, given that the Target setting for the first four sectors was announced in November 2024.

These ensure the accuracy, reliability, and integrity of our sustainability data and disclosures. This approach leverages the same rigorous processes applied to financial reporting, ensuring consistency and high standards across both areas. The risk management and internal control processes cover all aspects of sustainability reporting, including data collection, processing, and disclosure. This includes risk identification, risk assessment, control activities, information and communication, and monitoring. The Reporting Center of Excellence (RCOE) is critical component in this process serving as the focal point and internal control mechanism for data reporting. For the purposes of the CSRD Sustainability Statement in particular, the Steering Committee acts as the first control frontier with the participation of Directors of the key departments, including Governance and Sustainability, Climate and ESG Risk, Internal Audit, Legal, Accounting, Group Data Protection, Human Resources. The Group Sustainability Committee Functions as the second level approval, followed by the Group Sustainability Committee, the CGSNC and the Audit Committee. The Group’s risk assessment approach is based on the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision's standard 239 (BCBS 239) and the Principles of Risk Data Aggregation and Risk Reporting (RDARR). RDARR processes are independently validated within the Group, by the second line of defense. The Data Governance and Quality Business Area owns the risk assessment process by overseeing the proper implementation of the Data Governance Framework across the Group, ensuring the valuation, and monitoring of data quality. In that context the use of proxies is continuously minimized, as referenced in [BP-2] Disclosures in relation to specific circumstances. Through the framework, a well-structured operating model, with roles and responsibilities concerning data quality, is defined. In addition, the Data Quality Policy provides guidance for data quality monitoring and remediation actions performed by data stewards and overseen by the Data Governance and Quality Business Area. The Finance and Risk Reporting Framework defines the responsibilities of the report owners and producers (the respective business areas within the Group), ensuring consistency and timeliness of reporting. Applied to the entire process, end-user Computing Developed Applications are governed by the End-User Computing Policy, foreseeing the criteria for risk assessment and respective controls, ensuring data integrity across the reporting landscape. As part of the Risk Appetite Framework, four Key Risk Indicators (KRIs) have been defined in order to measure data quality risk – covering data ownership, reliability, accuracy and timeliness. In addition, the Risk Management Committee oversees the Climate Risk Action Plan, ensuring the effective oversight of the management of climate and environmental risks. Based on the aforementioned process, Non-Financial Risks (NFRs), including Sustainability Reporting risks are identified through various methods, spanning across Risk and Control Self-Assessments (RCSA), scenario analysis, internal and external loss data reviews, regulatory and audit findings, key risk indicators (KRIs), third-party risk assessments, and employee or customer surveys. Once identified, these risks are prioritized using risk scoring and heat maps, materiality assessments, alignment with risk appetite thresholds, and evaluations of interdependencies or concentration risks. Mitigation strategies include strengthening internal controls, implementing policies and training, transferring risk through insurance or outsourcing, and establishing robust business continuity and incident response plans. Continuous monitoring through regulatory compliance tools, stress testing, assurance reviews, and independent internal audits helps validate the effectiveness of these measures. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 44 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Once the reporting by the relevant Business Area has been reviewed internally, in line with the aforementioned process, the Governance and Sustainability Business Area confirms the data and ensures it is properly incorporated into the report. An external auditor is also engaged to assess the reliability of the data prepared. In the case of risks being identified, the Group employs several mitigation strategies, including strengthening internal controls, implementing further policies and training. To bolster the effectiveness of mitigation measures, the Group ensures monitoring through regulatory compliance tools, stress testing, assurance reviews, and internal audits. The Risk Management Committee, the Corporate Governance, Sustainability and Nominations Committee and the Audit Committee also collaborate as necessary to promote effective mitigation. It should be noted that there were no relevant sustainability reporting risks identified in 2024. The Audit Committee and the Risk Management Committee provide oversight of certain areas of risk management, and their repercussions on the Internal Control System. The Risk Management Committee is regularly informed about the quality of the sustainability reporting and convenes at least once a month, inviting, as appropriate, any Member of the Group’s Management or Executive to attend its meetings. The Chief Risk Officer (CRO) is a regular attendee of the Committee meetings and has unhindered access to the Committee Chair and Members. The Data Governance and Quality Committee, Risk Committee and the Board of Directors are periodically updated on data quality issues and on the implementation of the Data Governance and the development of the Quality Framework.

To meet those purposes Alpha Bank offers solutions such as “Alpha Photovoltaiko” for financing green energy and co- financed loans with EU, such as RRF Loans and “Invest EU”. Refer to [E1-3] Actions and resources in relation to climate change policies for further details. The Group has also developed the Sustainable Finance Framework (SFF). The Framework was developed in 2022 in accordance with market best practices requirements reflected in the principles established by the International Capital Market Association and the Loan Market Association. The Framework also incorporates the EU Taxonomy Regulation on economic activities that significantly contribute to climate mitigation or climate adaptation. The Group follows a multi-step assessment process at the Customer and transaction level. The Framework defines in detail the criteria and process to classify financial products and services as sustainable covering both dedicated and general-purpose financing. The ESG performance of the Customer is first assessed against qualitative and quantitative factors and the transaction or potential projects are screened against the Framework’s eligible theme categories and criteria. The transactions that are identified to meet the relevant sustainability criteria outlined in the Framework are classified as sustainable financing. The Group has put in place the SFF governance model to ensure a robust decision-making process encompassing all relevant Divisions and lines of defense. An external review of the Framework was conducted by an independent third party to validate the environmental and social credentials for positive contribution to the UN SDGs and to demonstrate its credibility as a tool for capital allocation decisions. The Framework identifies eligible activities for sustainable financing grouped into the following themes: TABLE 5 ELIGIBLE ACTIVITIES FOR SUSTAINABLE FINANCING Green eligible activities for sustainable financing Social eligible activities for sustainable financing BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 46 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Energy Efficiency Economic Inclusion Renewable Energy Access to Essential Services Sustainable Transport Affordable Basic Infrastructure Resource efficiency and pollution control Affordable Housing Green Buildings In 2024 the operationalization of the Sustainable Finance Framework (SFF) towards the support the Group’s commitment to sustainable lending activities led to Euro 1.809 billion of new financing being classified in alignment with the Sustainable Finance Framework’s criteria. Main challenges and critical solutions The rapidly evolving EU regulatory landscape (i.e. Paris Agreement, and EU Taxonomy, Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive -CSRD and its transposition into the Greek law 1 , the Greek National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP) 2 , SFDR, ECB Disclosure Requirements) is putting pressure to all industries to adapt and comply rigorously to the new requirements. Balancing economic growth objectives with climate risk mitigation, decarbonizing operations and financed emissions to align with global net-zero targets and supporting clients in high-emission industries to transit to sustainable business models without significant financial risk are key challenges for the financial sector. In addition, promoting workplace DE&I as well as bridging the financial inclusion gap for underserved communities always remain challenging. To navigate through these challenges, the dedicated Sustainability strategy has been developed by the Group to integrate further sustainability into its core business model and core strategy for the short-term time horizon (2024-2026). The Sustainability strategy is aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) and reflects the Bank’s approach to address Climate change, Biodiversity, and Circularity aspects, related mainly to its portfolio, and own operations, to deliver positive outcomes for its Own Workforce, and Consumers and End-Users, as well as to ensure responsible Business Conduct. The Sustainability strategy has been reinforced further with the adoption of a robust Sustainable Finance Framework from the Bank, as a critical solution to enhance Green and Social Finance, such as renewable energy investments, decarbonization of operations, Climate risk management and Financial Inclusion. The Sustainability strategy and the Sustainable Finance Framework is reviewed and updated regularly, in line with the long-term goals set. Furthermore, Alpha Bank S.A. continuously focuses on the improvement of internal processes and mechanisms for ensuring transparency in all its sustainability disclosures.

Interests and views of key stakeholders in relationship with strategy and business model The Group prioritizes transparency and collaboration in shaping the future of the sustainability strategy, and identification of its material impacts, risks and opportunities. Stakeholder engagement in relation to the double materiality assessment process is analyzed in paragraph [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities. Furthermore, through stakeholder engagement activities, interest and views of stakeholders are captured throughout the Group’s internal due diligence process are the following: Investors: Have shown up high interest to add Net-Zero Targets into their portfolios and increase the overall transparency. They also have high expectations in diversity and inclusion and in the corporate governance. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 48 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Regulatory Authorities: Following their appetite to comply with the National Laws and EU Regulations, they are also expecting to serve climate change mitigation purpose. Customers: The expectations focused mainly on access finance and especially Sustainable Finance and data privacy. Employees: They are expecting higher standards in diversity and inclusion as well as health safety and wellbeing. They are also adding business ethics into their views. Society: Similarly to Employees, their expectations are mainly in diversity and inclusion, health safety and wellbeing, business ethics and culture and heritage as well. Engagements with Stakeholders have emphasized the importance of a clear and ambitious climate strategy, expecting the Group to take a leadership role in advancing the transition to a low-carbon economy. Shareholders in particular, have called for sustainability to be fully integrated into the Group’s strategic framework and remuneration policies, ensuring that climate considerations drive decision-making and accountability across all levels. Additionally, there is a strong focus on transparency, with expectations for detailed reporting that tracks measurable progress and demonstrates our impact in addressing climate challenges. These expectations are taking into account and actively inform the Group’s strategy, business model and management of material impacts, risks and opportunities. In response to the aforementioned expectations, the Group has taken concrete steps to deliver on its climate and ESG ambitions. As the first Greek bank to join the UN-convened Net-Zero Banking Alliance (NZBA), it is committed to achieving net-zero emissions across the portfolios by 2050. To meet this goal, science-based targets for key high-emission sectors have been developed, applying the International Energy Agency's (IEA) Net Zero by 2050 scenario. These targets enabled by a comprehensive sustainability strategy and the SFF. Furthermore, significant resources are deployed in order to enhance financing renewable energy, circular economy initiatives, and clean technologies, reinforcing the Group’s commitment to driving meaningful and measurable impact. The Group forms international alliances to achieve its goals by being signatory of the international initiative of the UNEP FI, and joining the United Nations Global Compact in 2024, underscoring the commitments to sustainable and responsible business practices and to support the transition to a sustainable economic model. In addition, recognizing the profound impact of plastic pollution on our planet and future generations, Alpha Bank S.A. has also signed the Finance Statement on Plastic Pollution introduced by the UNEP FI and other leading organizations. Further evidencing to its stakeholders its commitment to management of impacts, risks and opportunities related to sustainability matters, the Group is subject to continuous assessments by international indices and rating agencies (ESG ISS Quality Score, Climate Change CDP, Bloomberg Gender Equality Index, and others). Alpha Bank S.A. received an “A” rating from MSCI ESG Ratings in 2024, while remained a constituent of the FTSE4Good Emerging Index, which includes listed companies in emerging markets with a positive financial, environmental, and social performance. It is mentioned that no amendments to its business model and strategy occurred particularly in 2024, following the double materiality assessment process. The strategy is aligned with the views and expectations of the Group stakeholders, however, the Group will consider the possibility of taking further actions and plan in the future time horizon. Updates from the stakeholder engagement output are being shared with the BoD members and its Committees, on a regular basis through designated meetings. The BoD and its Committees are informed about the integration of the views and interests of the stakeholders on sustainability-related impacts into the strategic planning process, and decision-making. Recognizing its Employees as internal Stakeholders, the Group ensures effective communication with them by establishing the role of Human Resources Business Partners, who serve as the first point of contact for Employees, and by facilitating visits by Human Resources Unit Executives to Units and Branches of Alpha Bank. Employee feedback is instrumental in shaping the policies and practices and therefore the Group utilizes internal campaigns, training, and inclusion in decision-making processes to ensure its Employees are empowered and aligned with its sustainability goals. The Group is also committed to meaningful community engagement by investing in community development projects, hosting forums to discuss community needs and integrate community feedback into its operational and sustainability strategies by offering banking services that can support local environment and social goals. As per the sources leveraged for the purposes of the Double Materiality Analysis, within 2025 a tool is expected to be launched for the submission of Employee queries. Collective bargaining and trade union rights have been established under national and international regulations. In addition, for the Group there four (4) active employee associations, and one of them is recognized as the responsible representation body in labor-related bargaining with the Management.

[SBM-3] Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model Material impacts, risks and opportunities The Group performed a double materiality assessment in 2024 for identifying its material impacts, risks and opportunities, taking into consideration its business operations, and its value chain, drawing also from international best practices. The results of the Materiality Analysis conducted in 2024 are presented in the following table: BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 50 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT TABLE 8 MATERIALITY ANALYSIS RESULTS MATERIAL Impacts, Risks and Opportunities (IROs) VALUE CHAIN SEGMENTS AND AFFECTED STAKEHOLDERS IMPACT Actual Impact Potential Impact RISK Current Financial Effect Anticipated Financial Effect OPPORTUNITY Current Financial Effect Anticipated Financial Effect 2025 2026- 2030 >2030 2025 2026- 2030 >2030 2025 2026- 2030 >2030 Negative impact to Climate Stability √ √ √ √ Climate Transition Risk √ √ Climate Change Mitigation √ √ √ √ ACROSS THE VALUE CHAIN Material negative impact to climate stability though GHG emissions created indirectly by the Group’s products/services and business relationships, energy consumption in own operations, and associated transition risks and opportunities for the Group Climate Physical Risk √ √ Climate Change Adaptation √ DOWNSTREAM Climate physical risks and adaptation opportunities through Group’s products/services and business relationships with Customers Negative impact to Biodiversity and Ecosystems √ √ √ √ Nature Related Risk (Habitats and Species) √ Protection and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystems √ DOWNSTREAM Material negative impact to Habitats (which affects the status of Biodiversity and Ecosystems), created indirectly though the Group’s products/services and business relationships, and associated transition risks and opportunities for the Group Negative impact to Resource Security √ √ √ √ Transition to a circular economy √ DOWNSTREAM Material negative impact to Resource Security (which affects the development of a Circular Economy), though the Group’s products/services and business relationships and transition opportunities for the Group Contribution to Livelihood of own workforce √ √ √ √ OWN OPERATIONS Material positive impact to own workforce through provision of secure employment, social dialogue and freedom of association Contribution to Equality and Justice of own workforce √ √ OWN OPERATIONS Material positive impact to own workforce through improvement of diversity Staffing and training issues √ √ √ OWN OPERATIONS Material inherent risk through insufficient/ inadequate training and skills development of own workforce Access to Housing √ √ √ √ DOWNSTREAM Material positive impact to Customers and broader society/economy through the Group’s products/services and business relationships Access to Finance √ √ √ √ - Disclosure and data protection issues √ √ √ DOWNSTREAM Material inherent risk through data privacy issues relating to Customers BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 51 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT - Unsuitable promotion practices (from information disclosure perspective) - Inadequate disclosure of product terms √ √ √ DOWNSTREAM Material inherent risk through incomplete/ incorrect information for Customers - Product suitability issues -Unsuitable promotion/ sales practices -Fiduciary breaches √ √ √ DOWNSTREAM Material inherent risk through the Group’s products/services and business relationships with Customers Contribution to Healthy Economies √ √ √ √ DOWNSTREAM Material positive impact to Customers and broader society/economy through the Group’s products/services and business relationships Contribution to Transparency and the Rule of Law √ √ √ √ ACROSS THE VALUE CHAIN Material positive impact to stakeholders across the value chain through initiatives that foster an ethical corporate culture AML/CFT √ √ √ ACROSS THE VALUE CHAIN Material inherent risk through AML issues across the value chain BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 52 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Impacts Material impacts of the Group for the short-term, mid-term and long-term time horizon are concentrated to its own operations, and downstream value chain affecting the natural environment and its Employees and Customers in all areas where the Group has main presence. This is a result from the inherent nature of the Group’s products/services, business model as well as its strategy, which are related to its own operations, portfolio and its business relationships. More specifically, material impacts concentrated in the downstream value chain include: • Climate Stability: Actual and potential negative impact to climate stability in the short-, mid- and long-term time horizon though GHG emissions created mainly through the financing activities of sectors, contributing negatively to climate stability. • Biodiversity and Ecosystems: Actual and potential negative impact to Habitats in the short-, mid- and long-term time horizon mainly through the financing activities of sectors, contributing negatively to habitats, and the preservation of good condition of ecosystems. • Resource use and circular economy: Actual and potential negative impact to Resource security in the short-, mid- and long-term time horizon mainly through the financing activities of sectors, contributing negatively to the preservation of natural resources. • Access to Housing: Actual and potential positive impact to accessibility to Housing in the short-, mid- and long-term time horizon mainly through the offering of products/services to Customers, that support affordable housing. • Access to Finance: Actual and potential positive impact to accessibility to Finance in the short-, mid- and long-term time horizon mainly through the offering of products/services to Customers, that support the financial inclusion. • Contribution to Healthy Economies: Actual and potential positive impact to Customers, including small and medium enterprises in the short-, mid- and long-term time horizon mainly through the offering of products/services, that contribute to the creation of healthy economies. Furthermore, material impacts have also been identified in its own operations, due to the operation of its facilities and the utilization of human capital. These material impacts include: • Climate Stability: Actual and potential negative impact to climate stability in the short-, mid- and long-term time horizon due to the energy consumption in its facilities, contributing negatively to climate stability. • Contribution to Livelihood of own workforce: Actual and potential negative impact to its own workforce in the short-, mid- and long-term time horizon through provision of secure employment, social dialogue and freedom of association. • Contribution to Equality and Justice of own workforce: Potential positive impact to its own workforce in the mid- and long-term time horizon through the Group’s plan for improvement of diversity. • Contribution to Transparency and the Rule of Law: Actual and potential positive impact to all its stakeholders, in the short-, mid- and long-term time horizon through initiatives that foster ethical corporate culture. Regarding impacts related to the upstream activities, (supply chain and the natural environment), no material impacts have been identifying, given their overall low materiality across the entire value chain and the Group’s activities and business model. Risks The Group has identified material risks to the following sustainability matters: • Climate Transition and Physical risk: The Group has identified risks related to climate change as material in the medium- and long- term time horizon. o More specifically, in the medium- and long-term horizons the anticipated financial effect of climate change mitigation (transition risk) is found to be material on an inherent level basis, considering the percentage of the Group’s exposures towards sectors sensitive to transition risk over the total Group Assets. These risks impact both the creditworthiness of counterparties and the recovery value of such exposures, e.g., non-compliance with climate-related regulations, increased cost of raw materials / energy needs, failing to keep up with the pace of technological change, and shift in consumer preferences. Taking into consideration the above, climate transition risks are primarily related to the downstream portfolio of the Group. o Additionally, the anticipated financial effect of climate change adaptation (physical risks) is also considered material in the medium and long-term horizons on an inherent level basis. This consideration is due to the relatively high anticipated occurrence of certain physical risk factors (e.g., wildfires in regional analyses and floods in sectoral analyses). These risks impact affect clients’ ability to meet financial obligations and reduce the value of their properties or premises due to physical risk events within sectors or geographies vulnerable to physical risk. For instance, there may be lower collateral valuations in real estate portfolios as a result of increased flood risk. Taking into consideration the above, climate physical risks are primarily related to the downstream portfolio of the Group. • Nature Related Risk (Habitats and Species): The Group has identified risks related to biodiversity and ecosystems as material in the long term, considering the significant impact of biodiversity-related risks on the creditworthiness of its obligors, leading to credit losses for the Bank. For example, companies unable to comply with biodiversity-related regulations, now and more increasingly in the future, may face fines, litigation, or operational restrictions, reducing their financial stability, while companies reliant on ecosystem services, such as agriculture, forestry, fisheries, etc. may face reduced productivity or higher operational costs due to biodiversity loss, affecting their ability to meet financial obligations. Biodiversity and Ecosystems risks are primarily related to the downstream portfolio of the Bank. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 53 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • Staffing and training issues: The anticipated financial effect from risks related to the Bank’s own workforce, particularly inadequate “training and skills development” is assessed as material in the short-, medium-, and long-term. Such risks can reduce productivity and cause operational disruptions, as Employees may lack the skills needed to adapt to evolving technologies and processes. Furthermore, insufficient training and development may decrease employee engagement, heighten dissatisfaction, and drive higher turnover rates. Similarly, prolonged working hours can lead to employee burnout, exacerbating dissatisfaction, reducing productivity, and further contributing to higher attrition within the Bank. Own workforce risks are related to the Bank’s own operations. • Disclosure and data protection issues, Fiduciary breaches, Unsuitable promotion practices (from information disclosure perspective), Inadequate disclosure of product terms, Product suitability issues, Unsuitable promotion/ sales practices: The anticipated financial effect from risks related to consumers and end-users, in particular “Privacy”, “Access to quality information” and “Responsible marketing practices” is considered material in the short-, medium- and long-term. Although the financial impact of these risks is not quantified directly in monetary terms, the rapid technological progress and development in cybersecurity, which can lead to data breaches, highlights the importance of closely monitoring and adapting to the evolving environment. Failure to do so could expose the Bank to substantial financial losses due to fines, legal fees, and compensation costs, as well as damage to the Bank's reputation. In addition, inadequate access to quality information and irresponsible marketing practices can erode consumer trust and also lead to regulatory penalties, further impacting the Bank's financial stability. Although consumers and end-users’ risks affect the Bank’s clients, the root cause for risk manifestation lies on the Bank’s own operations (most typically due to potential failures of internal controls established to prevent such risks). • Corruption and bribery: The anticipated financial effect of risks related to corruption and bribery is assessed as material in the short- , medium-, and long-term due to possible reputational damage and material penalties imposed by regulatory authorities. This outcome is driven by the AML/CFT risks associated with this topic, which have a financial effect deemed material, as these risks directly impact the institution’s financial stability, reputation, and regulatory compliance. Failure to prevent financial crimes like money laundering and terrorist financing can result in significant financial penalties and legal consequences. Additionally, it can damage the Bank’s reputation, erode customer trust, and hinder the ability to attract and retain clients, ultimately affecting long- term growth and profitability. Corruption and bribery risks are material through AML issues across the value chain. Opportunities The Group has identified material opportunities to the following ESRS topics: • Climate Change: The Group identified opportunities related to climate change mitigation as material in the current year as well as in the short-, medium- and long-term while climate change adaptation is considered material in the long-term. EU Taxonomy aligned loans with a substantial contribution to the Climate Change Mitigation and Climate Change Adaptation environmental objectives, sustainability-linked loans and other relevant sustainable loans based on the Group’s SFF are considered. • Biodiversity and Ecosystems/ Circular Economy: The Group identified opportunities related to biodiversity and ecosystems/ circular economy as material in the long-term. EU Taxonomy aligned loans with a substantial contribution to the protection and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystems and transition to a circular economy environmental objectives and other relevant sustainable loans based on the Group’s SFF are considered. The opportunities described above (through sustainable financings) are primarily related to the downstream value chain of the Group. Connection of material impacts with strategy and business model The Group’s ESG strategy focuses on its impact generation, addressing both the direct and indirect effects of its operations and financial activities on various Stakeholders and the environment. Amidst global efforts to address challenges, the Group aligns its objectives with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), aiming for a lower-carbon future and leveraging digital innovations to empower Customers. Through concrete targets, the Group demonstrates its commitment to sustainability. The Group continued to implement the ESG Workplan, which aims to integrate sustainability and climate risk criteria in the decision-making processes, including strategy, risk management, lending, and operations. This resulted in increased portfolio of green loans and investments, supporting projects that contribute to renewable energy and sustainable economy. To this end, the Group developed the SFF in 2022, operationalizing it in 2023. The Framework was developed in accordance with market best practices requirements reflected in the principles established by the International Capital Market Association and the Loan Market Association. The Framework also incorporates the EU Taxonomy Regulation on economic activities that significantly contribute to climate mitigation or climate adaptation. The Group follows a multi-step assessment process at the Customer and transaction level. The Framework defines in detail the criteria and process to classify financial products and services as sustainable covering both dedicated and general-purpose financing. The ESG performance of the Customer is first assessed against qualitative and quantitative factors and the transaction or potential projects are screened against the Framework’s eligible theme categories and criteria. The transactions that are identified to meet the relevant sustainability criteria outlined in the Framework are classified as sustainable financing. The Group has put in place the SFF governance model to ensure a robust decision-making process encompassing all relevant Divisions and lines of defense. An external review of the Framework was conducted by an independent third party to validate the environmental and social credentials for positive contribution to the UN SDGs and to demonstrate its credibility as a tool for capital allocation decisions. The Group recognizes that its impacts on the natural environment and people are closely and significantly related to its financial products and services. Alpha Services and Holdings Group offers access to financial services through a wide range of high-quality financial products and services, including retail banking, banking for medium-size and large enterprises, asset management and private banking, insurance products, BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 54 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT investment banking, brokerage and real estate Management. The Group’s most significant entity, Alpha Bank, a leading financial institution in Southeastern Europe, has the ambition not only to cause no significant harm to the environment and society via its activities but also to contribute to the transition of the Greek economy to a sustainable model, through the development of sustainable finance and associated products to support investments in green projects. The downstream segment of the value chain (portfolio) is particularly significant due to the inherently higher materiality of impacts created through the Group’s products and services offered to its clients (lending portfolios) and through its investment activities (own investments portfolio). Nevertheless, material impacts are assessed across the entire value chain. Refer to [SBM-3] Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model for more information. Current financial effects of material risks Regarding the current financial effects of the material risks the Group has identified the following: i. Climate Change: For 2024, the operational risk losses related to climate risk are very limited below Euro 1 million, which are considered not material. ii. Biodiversity and Ecosystems: For 2024, there are no operational risk losses related to biodiversity and ecosystems-related risks. Therefore, the current financial effect from biodiversity and ecosystems -related risks is considered not material. iii. Own Workforce: For 2024, the operational risk losses related to employee practices are very limited below Euro 1 million. Therefore, the current financial effect is considered not material. iv. Consumers and end-users: For 2024, the operational risk losses related to data privacy issues, inappropriate marketing practices and inadequate access to quality information are very limited below Euro 2.5 million. Therefore, the current financial effect is considered not material. v. Business conduct: For 2024, the operational risk losses related to corruption and bribery and AML/CFT-related issues are very limited below Euro 1 million. Therefore, the current financial effect is considered not material. Since climate change and biodiversity and ecosystems topics are not material in the short-term, no material adjustments within the next annual reporting period to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities reported in the related financial statements are expected. Social and governance risks are effectively managed and mitigated, resulting in limited residual risk and thus no material adjustments in the Bank’s balance sheet or PandL are expected. Current financial effects of material opportunities Regarding the current financial effects of the material opportunities the Group has identified the following: vi. Climate Change: For 2024, the Bank has identified climate change mitigation-related opportunities above Euro 2 billion (in terms of green (climate change mitigation related) loans balances), which are considered material based on the applicable materiality threshold of Euro 1 billion. For climate change adaptation, the Group has not identified any relevant opportunities for 2024 and therefore they are considered not material. vii. Biodiversity and Ecosystems/ Circular economy: For 2024, the Group has not identified biodiversity and ecosystems and circular economy related opportunities and therefore they are considered not material. The Group anticipates significant growth of sustainable financings over the next year, which is expected to result in substantial adjustments to the gross carrying amounts of assets reflected in the financial statements for the next annual reporting period. Anticipated financial effects of material risks • Climate Change: The Group, in order to estimate the anticipated financial effect for climate risk, it examines the anticipated financial effect separately for transition and physical risks. More specifically, to evaluate the anticipated financial effect for transition risk, the Group leverages on the outcome of the materiality assessment performed that takes into consideration the following dimensions: o The identification of the sensitive to transition risk perimeter by taking into consideration several factors such as the CPRS perimeter, the NZBA and LTS for Greece for 2050, emission intensities and forward-looking PDs, as well as exclusion of sustainable loans related to climate change mitigation objective. o The transition risk score derived from the qualitative materiality assessment for transition risk (climate change mitigation) sub-types (market, technology, reputation, policy and legal) as proposed by the TCFD, that identifies the climate-related transition risks that materially affect each sector lying within the transition risk sensitive perimeter and under different time horizons. This score is considered as a proxy for the likelihood of occurrence of an anticipated financial effect for the Group. o After recognizing the sectors lying within the sensitive perimeter that have High, Medium, or Low likelihood of occurrence, the Group proceeded with the calculation of the percentage of the Group’s exposures within the Sensitive perimeter over Total Group Assets categorized under High, Medium and Low likelihood of occurrence, across the different time horizons and set thresholds for materiality. Climate change mitigation is identified as a material sub-topic in the medium and long-term, since the percentage of the exposures over the Group Total Assets corresponding to High and Medium likelihood of occurrence categories exceed the respective thresholds. The following BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 55 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT table gives an overview of the Group’s exposures per likelihood of occurrence score. More details regarding the anticipated financial effect from physical risk are presented under [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities. TABLE 9 EXPOSURES PER LIKELIHOOD OF OCCURRENCE Anticipated Financial Effect – Transition Risk (Exposures in Euro million) Likelihood of Occurrence Short-Term (2025) Medium-Term (2026-2030) Long-Term (>2030) High 0 5,039 5,039 Medium 847 4,670 4,670 Low 9,113 251 251 In addition, to evaluate the anticipated financial effect for physical risk, the Group leverages on the outcome of the materiality assessment performed that takes into consideration the following dimensions: o The vulnerability assessment outcome per sector and region. The Group has laid down a methodology based on sensitivity and exposure analysis (when separately assessed) to derive vulnerability to physical risk factors. Vulnerability analysis is performed to identify potential significant hazards per subsector covered by the analysis for Business portfolio, as well as across the different geographic regions where real estate properties used as collateral extend. The vulnerability assessment outcome is considered as a proxy for the likelihood of occurrence of an anticipated financial effect for the Group. o After recognizing the sectors and regions that have High, Medium, or Low likelihood of occurrence, the Group proceeded with the calculation of the percentage of the Group’s exposures over Total Group Assets categorized under High, Medium and Low likelihood of occurrence across the different time horizons and set thresholds for materiality (the materiality threshold has been set on Group’s 'exposures over Group Total Assets’ under High Likelihood of Occurrence). The following table gives an overview of the Group’s exposures per likelihood of occurrence score for Both Chronic and Acute physical risks. It is noted that the Group also assesses the likelihood of occurrence of Chronic and Acute risks separately. Climate change adaptation is identified as a material topic in the medium and long-term considering that for some physical risk factors (e.g., wildfire in case of the regional analysis and floods in case of sectoral analysis) the anticipated occurrence is relatively high. The following table gives an overview of the Group’s exposures per likelihood of occurrence score. More details regarding the anticipated financial effect from physical risk are presented under [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities. TABLE 10 EXPOSURES PER LIKELIHOOD OF OCCURRENCE SCORE FOR BOTH CHRONIC AND ACUTE PHYSICAL RISKS Anticipated Financial Effect – Physical Risk – Both Chronic and Acute (Exposures in Euro million) Likelihood of Occurrence Short-Term (2025) Medium-Term (2026-2030) Long-Term (>2030) High 281 1,175 1,251 Medium 16,750 18,373 13,168 Low 3,416 899 6,028 • Biodiversity and Ecosystems: The Group has utilized the UNEP FI Portfolio Impact Analysis tool in order to examine the materiality of the anticipated financial effect for nature-related risks, assessing the negative impact of the environmental pillar in six different areas: Waterbodies, Air, Soil, Resource Intensity, Waste and Biodiversity (the latter consisting of the Species and Habitat categories) within its portfolio per sector. The assessment considered the relevant impact topics and “key sectors”, which are the sectors that have a direct impact on these environmental areas, as defined by the UNEP FI tool. Moreover, for sectors with a key negative impact on each environmental topic, a risk assessment was performed using a literature review to estimate the likelihood of occurrence of the respective nature-related risks, covering short-, medium-, and long-term horizons. This assessment was carried out within the context of transitioning to stricter regulatory requirements. To evaluate the anticipated magnitude of financial effect for the Biodiversity and Ecosystems-related ESRS topic, the Group calculated the proportion of exposures assigned to each likelihood category (high, medium, low) as a percentage of the Group's Total Assets. Biodiversity and Ecosystems is identified as a material topic in the long-term since the percentage of the exposures over the Group Total Assets corresponding to High and Medium likelihood of occurrence categories exceed the respective thresholds. The following table gives an overview of the Group’s exposures per likelihood of occurrence score. More details regarding the anticipated financial effect from biodiversity and ecosystems related risk are presented under [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities. TABLE 11 ANTICIPATED FINANCIAL EFFECT – BIODIVERSITY AND ECOSYSTEMS RISK Anticipated Financial Effect – Biodiversity and Ecosystems Risk (Exposures in Euro million) Likelihood of Occurrence Short-Term (2025) Medium-Term (2026-2030) Long-Term (>2030) BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 56 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT High 0 1,367 8,125 Medium 0 7,470 2,077 Low 10,255 1,418 53 • Social Risks: To evaluate the anticipated financial effect of social risks, the Group conducted a mapping of the respective ESRS sub- topics with the risk types identified within the Operational Risk Taxonomy framework and the corresponding inherent risk assessment outcomes derived from the RCSA. o Own Workforce: The anticipated financial effect from risks related to the Group’s own workforce, in particular “inadequate training” and “skills development”, are assessed as material in the short-, medium- and long-term. Although these risks are challenging to quantify, they are considered material due to their potential financial effects to the Group. They can adversely affect the Group’s human capital by diminishing operational efficiency and contributing to elevated attrition rates stemming from employee dissatisfaction. o Consumers and end-users: The anticipated financial effect from risks related to consumers and end-users, in particular “Privacy”, “Access to quality information” and “Responsible marketing practices” is considered material in the short-, medium- and long-term. Although the financial effect of these risks is not quantified directly in monetary terms, taking into consideration rapid technological progress and development in the area of cybersecurity which can lead to data breaches, highlight the importance of closely monitoring and adapting to the evolving environment otherwise it could be exposed to substantial financial losses due to fines, legal fees, and compensation costs, as well as reputational damage. • Governance Risks: To evaluate the anticipated financial effect of governance risks, the Group conducted a mapping of the respective ESRS sub-topics with the risk types identified within the Compliance Risk Assessment and the corresponding inherent risk assessment outcomes. o Corruption and bribery: The anticipated financial effect of risks related to corruption and bribery is assessed as material in the short-, medium-, and long-term due to possible reputational damage and material penalties imposed by regulatory authorities. This outcome is driven by the AML/CFT risks associated with this topic, which are challenging to quantify, but they are considered material since they directly impact the institution’s financial stability, reputation, and regulatory compliance. Anticipated financial effects of material opportunities • Climate change: For the short-term horizon the Group considers climate change mitigation related opportunities material, taking into consideration the fact that sustainable financings towards climate change mitigation are, already, material (exceeding the respective threshold) and the growth of sustainable financings in the following year, that according to Business Plan is estimated at c. Euro 939 million, mainly stemming from Energy and Real Estate sectors in the Business portfolio (with some small amounts being also located in Accommodation and Travel Agencies, Agriculture, Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals, Construction, Wholesale Trade and Other sectors), while a small amount comes from Households (c. Euro 80 million). For the medium- and long-term horizons, although the financial effect of these opportunities is not easily quantified directly in monetary terms, the Group considers climate change mitigation material in both horizons and climate change adaptation in the long-term based on the Group's expectations for the growth of climate-related sustainable financings in the future. • Biodiversity and Ecosystems/ Circular Economy: Although the financial effect of these opportunities is not easily quantified directly in monetary terms, the Group considers biodiversity and ecosystems and circular economy related opportunities material in the long-term horizon based on the Group's expectations for those sustainable financings in the future. Resilience of strategy and business model towards addressing impacts risks and advancing opportunities Group's strategy and business model demonstrate significant resilience in relation to climate change through a well-structured approach to managing climate impacts and risks. The Group's comprehensive framework integrates these risks into its overall risk management processes, addressing both physical risks, such as those arising from extreme weather events, and transition risks associated with the shift to a low- carbon economy. A detailed materiality assessment has been conducted to evaluate the potential impacts of climate risks on financial performance, operations, and key stakeholders. This approach aligns closely with global objectives, including the Paris Agreement, and is supported by the Group’s commitment to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 through science-based targets. Climate Change risks More specifically, Alpha Bank’s resilience analysis is based on the following factors in order to identify sectors sensitive to transition risk: i) Climate Policy Relevant Sectors (CPRS) perimeter, ii) Net Zero Banking Alliance (NZBA) and Long-Term Strategy for Greece for 2050 (LTS), iii) The dimensions of emission intensities at sector level and forward-looking Probability of Defaults (PDs) based on the ECB short- term disorderly transition scenario, iv) Exclusion of: a. RES loans, b. dedicated-purpose sustainable loans that are aligned with EU Taxonomy (and substantially contribute to Climate Change Mitigation (CCM) objective), and c. other loans that are sustainable according to the Bank's SFF, provided that they are linked to and affect Climate Change Mitigation (CCM) objective. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 57 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT To further examine the impact under different time horizons, the Group has conducted a qualitative materiality assessment for transition risk sub-types (market, technology, reputation, policy and legal), as proposed by the TCFD. This analysis identifies the climate-related transition risks that materially affect each sector lying within the transition risk sensitive perimeter and under different time horizons. Regarding physical risk, the Group performs a materiality assessment based on IPCC AR5 RCP 8.5 for 2025, 2030 and 2050 horizons. More specifically, the Group utilizes the vulnerability analysis to identify potential significant hazards per subsector as well as across the different geographic regions where real estate properties used as collateral extend. Biodiversity and ecosystems risks The Group has performed a resilience analysis to assess biodiversity and ecosystem risks within its portfolio. The Group utilizes the UNEP FI Portfolio Impact Analysis Tool to examine the key negative impact of sectors (at NACE code level) of its Non-Financial Corporate portfolio and a literature review to estimate the likelihood of occurrence of the respective nature-related risks, covering short-, medium-, and long-term horizons. The analysis and management of biodiversity and ecosystem-related risks has been improved by conducting dependency analyses using the ENCORE tool. For further information related to the materiality assessment methodology for nature-related risks under [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities. Changes to the material impacts, risks and opportunities compared to the previous reporting period Since 2024 is the first year the Sustainability Statement under the ESRS, there are no prior reporting periods to reference. Specification of impacts, risks and opportunities covered by ESRS Disclosure Requirements Material impacts, risks and opportunities related to Climate stability, Biodiversity and Circularity, are covered by ESRS E1 Climate Change, ESRS E4 Biodiversity and ecosystems and E5 Resource Use and Circular Economy. Moreover, material impacts and risks related to Livelihood, Equality and Justice of Employees, are covered by ESRS S1 Own Workforce. Material impacts, and risks related to Access to Housing and Finance of Customers, are covered by ESRS S4 Consumers and end-users. However, the impact related to Contribution to Healthy Economies, is not covered by an ESRS topical standard, therefore, additional entity- specific disclosures have been included. Finally, material impacts, and risks related to the Contribution to Transparency and the Rule of Law are covered by ESRS G1 Business Conduct. [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities The Group’s double materiality assessment conducted in 2024 aimed to encompass both the impact and financial materiality perspectives, along with the interconnections between them, in accordance with the double materiality assessment process of the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS). The methodology followed aims to capture impacts across the entire Value Chain (VC) by examining each segment separately. For impact materiality, assumptions made concerned the perimeter of the Group’s subsidiaries for the double materiality assessment and the utilization of Alpha Bank S.A. suppliers’ data as representative of the Group. Regarding downstream value chain, the offering of products and services for the short-term, mid-term and long-term time horizon, static exposures and mix of portfolio. For financial materiality, the methodology followed concerned Alpha Bank S.A., considering that it is the largest subsidiary of the Group in both terms of portfolio size and operations. Process to identify, assess, prioritize and monitor impacts informed by due diligence Impact Materiality Phase 1: Design the Impact Materiality Assessment Approach Understand the Context (Internal and External) In this phase, an overview of the Bank’s activities and business relationships has been developed, along with the context in which these occur and identifies its key affected stakeholders: BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 58 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT a) Entity perimeter definition: The Group conducted a scoping exercise as a basis for identifying entities to include in the perimeter of the impact materiality assessment. 112 “micro” entities were excluded (relative business activity with the other Group entities, very small size and negligible impact), as well as due to the fact that no activities of different nature have been identified. Among the rest 26 entities of the Group, 5 holding and special purpose entities were excluded from the subsequent analysis; the impacts of holding and special purpose entities were captured through the activities of other entities’ activities, resulting in a perimeter of 21 entities. b) Business activities and relationships/ affected stakeholders' categorization (value chain mapping): Own Operations: Activity mapping was performed based on the economic activity description, sector (NACE), and location of operations. The impact materiality process focused on these 21 entities operating in Greece, Cyprus, Romania, UK and performing the following Group activities: Asset Management, Banks, Financing companies, Insurance, Investment Banking, Provision of Information technology services and consulting, and Real Estate and Hotel. Downstream Value Chain: For downstream activities, the results of the most recent PRB portfolio analysis for Alpha Bank S.A. and Alpha Bank Cyprus were leveraged. For the rest entities, data were requested and collected related to their products and services (where applicable). Alpha Supporting Services S.A. and Alpha Finance A.E.P.E.Y. were excluded, due to the nature of their activities as they already trigger impacts at own operations (no downstream/portfolio relevance). It is also noted that, that Alpha Real Estate Services L.L.C. and Alpha International Holdings M.S.A. could not provide data, however due to similar activities and locations of operation to the other Group entities in scope, it was reasonably to assume that no additional impacts could be created. Upstream Value Chain: The mapping for upstream activities included collecting information for major suppliers based on spending for purchased goods and services per NACE of suppliers. Alpha Bank S.A. major supply categories were identified, and confirmation was provided by the other Group entities on similar supply chain activities. It is noted that due to unavailability of data, certain Group entities could not provide data. Nevertheless, due to similar activities and locations of operation to the other Group entities in scope, it was reasonable to assume that no additional impacts could be created. The understanding of business relationships and affected stakeholders was achieved through the review on existing stakeholder mapping. Through this review, the Bank has identified its key affected stakeholders. c) Other contextual information: research was conducted on country/sector level sustainability-related priorities and Alpha Bank S.A.'s external sustainability commitments. The aforementioned contextual information has been utilized as sources for potential impacts, risks and opportunities in the future time horizons (please refer to Phases 2, 3). Time horizons were selected for actual impacts (2024) and potential impacts (short term: 2025, mid-term: 2026-2030, long-term: >2030). Stakeholders were engaged effectively in the subsequent phases of the double materiality assessment, through leveraging existing stakeholder engagement output in 2024 and performing dedicated meetings with stakeholder representatives. Phase 2: Identify Actual and Potential Impacts a) Impact identification - actual impacts Own operations: The basis for the identification of material impacts created by the Group’s own operations has been the Group’s prior year material impacts (2023 1 ) and impacts emerging from ESG Standards Review and Peer Review. Specifically, to ensure completeness, the Bank further examined whether the identified impacts accurately reflect the actual impacts created to people and the environment 2 . Downstream: Impacts have been identified by using UNEP FI Portfolio impact Analysis Tools (i.e. Investment Portfolio Impact Analysis Tool, Consumer Banking and Institutional Banking Identification Modules and Real Estate Impact Analysis Tool, for the 1 Source: Alpha Services and Holdings Sustainability Report 2023 2 Main Group activities include Asset Management, Banks, Financing companies, Insurance, Investment Banking, Provision of Information technology services and consulting, Real Estate and Hotel. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 59 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT respective portfolios) and specifically by using sector-impact associations (as per the UNEP FI Sector-Impact Map), in accordance with the UNEP FI Impact Protocol. Upstream: Similarly to the downstream segment, impact identification has been based on the implementation of the UNEP FI Sector- Impact Map. Specifically, to capture impacts generated in the upstream segment of the VC, the Sector-Impact Map has been utilized for selected NACE sectors, which were determined based on the Bank’s supplier spending. b) Impact identification - potential impacts Potential impacts have been identified through inherent analysis of shifts and transitions in the materiality of sustainability impact topics across different time horizons. This analysis is based on desktop research on policies, regulations, sectoral trends, macroeconomic conditions of sustainability themes, academic and scientific evidence, and other relevant sources. The analysis focused on how the main sectors of the Group’s portfolio prioritize the identified actual impacts in future time horizons. The results served as a proxy for the identification of the material impacts for the Group. Furthermore, regarding downstream impacts, portfolio mix, and exposures were assumed to be the same for the future time horizons. Phases 3 and 4: Assess and Prioritize Impacts a) Impact assessment and prioritization - actual impacts b) Own operations: For own operations, an overall “severity” scoring for negative impacts, and an overall “significance” scoring for positive impacts, based on the results of the identification phase. The impacts have been evaluated and verified through consultation and stakeholder engagement with HR and Compliance, and Governance and Sustainability- ESG Strategy. Downstream and upstream: The materiality of actual impacts connected to the Group through its products and services and suppliers, for downstream and upstream, respectively, has been assessed based on significance (positive) and severity (negative). The significance (or severity for negative) of an impact has been evaluated from the viewpoint of the affected people or the environment. To this end, it has been determined by the characteristics (criteria) of scope, scale and irremediability (for negative impacts only), taking into consideration monetary figures related to portfolio and supply chain. Subsequently, based on a top-down approach, significance and severity have been aggregated at the Group level, per impact and have been prioritized based on quantitative thresholds 1 . c) Impact assessment and prioritization - potential impacts Regarding potential impacts, an inherent analysis (without considering mitigation actions or changes in the current portfolio) of sustainability impact topics was conducted. The scoring methodology was applied as an aggregated conclusion of materiality per impact topic across three-time horizons. Additionally, the likelihood criterion was based on desktop research and has been incorporated into the analysis. It is noted that for own operations, the potential impacts have been evaluated and verified through consultation and stakeholder engagement with HR and Compliance, and Governance and Sustainability- ESG Strategy. Generally, the whole impact materiality assessment process of the Group, informed by the due diligence process, included consultation with subject matter experts, as an additional source for impact identification, assessment and prioritization. Phase 5: Report on the Process and Outcome To map the material UNEP FI topics with the respective ESRS topics, sub-topics and sub-sub topics, the UNEP FI’s Topics Mapping from the UNEP FI Interoperability Guide has been leveraged. The reporting phase included the preparation of narratives for the description of the processes to identify and assess material impacts for inclusion in the sustainability statement, along with the respective outcomes. Process to identify, assess, prioritize and monitor risks and opportunities that have financial effects Risks Current Financial Effect In order to assess the magnitude of the current financial effect of its material risks, the Bank has evaluated if any P and L impacts (operational risk losses) have been recognized during the current financial year. 1 As per IG 1, par. 27, “ESRS 1 sets criteria for the materiality assessment but not specific thresholds to determine when a matter or information is material or not. Therefore, the assessment requires the exercise of judgement. The undertaking needs to set thresholds based on ESRS 1 criteria as well as its own specific facts and circumstances.” BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 60 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Anticipated Financial Effect Climate Change (ESRS E1): The key dimensions considered by the Bank in order to assess the anticipated financial effect of climate change mitigation are described in [SBM-3] Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model. Further information related to the materiality assessment methodology for climate risks is provided under [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities. Nature-Related risks (ESRS E2-E3): As already mentioned in [SBM-3] Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model and above, the Bank in order to assess the materiality assessment of nature-related risks and identify sectors with key negative impact leverages on UNEP FI Portfolio Impact Analysis Tool, while for sectors with a key negative impact, a risk assessment was performed using a literature review. As per the financial assessment materiality that ESRS E2 (Pollution) and ESRS E3 (Water and Marine Resources) are not material. Further information related to the materiality assessment methodology for nature-related risks, is provided under [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities. Social Risks related to workers in the value chain and affected communities (ESRS S2-S3): The financial assessment materiality concludes that ESRS S2 (Workers in the Value Chain) and ESRS S3 (Affected Communities) are not material. The impact analysis conducted did not identify any significant impacts related to these topics, nor does the Bank have dependencies on such aspects. Additionally, the Group’s policies and processes ensure compliance with minimum regulatory requirements. Social Risks related to Own workforce and Consumers and end-users (ESRS S1 and S4): • As described under [SBM-3] Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model, the Bank proceeded with a mapping of the respective ESRS sub-topics with the risk types identified within the Operational Risk Taxonomy framework and the corresponding inherent risk assessment outcomes derived from the RCSA, to evaluate the anticipated financial effect of social risks, • ESRS sub-sub-topics that are assessed as having a High or Medium High inherent risk are deemed material. For ESRS sub- sub-topics and associated operational risks that encompass multiple RCSA risk events, a conservative approach has been utilized, taking into account the highest observed risk assessment outcome. It is noted that the inherent risk assessment considers which is the impact for the Bank in case the risk is manifested within the next year (short-term) without additional mitigation actions going forward. It is assumed that the same conclusions are, also, applicable in the medium- and long-term horizons. Qualitative overlays have, also, been performed as applicable. Governance Risks: • As described under [SBM-3] Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model, the Group proceeded with a mapping of the respective ESRS sub-topics with the risk types identified within the Compliance Risk Assessment and the corresponding inherent risk assessment outcomes, to evaluate the anticipated financial effect of governance risks. • ESRS sub-sub-topics that are assessed as having a High or Medium High inherent risk are deemed material. Further information related to the double materiality assessment methodology for Governance risks, is provided under [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities. Alpha Services and Holdings Group acknowledges the importance of improving disclosures for its subsidiaries in other countries. As disclosed in the last Sustainability Report (2023), the Group aims to standardize its materiality assessments and enhance transparency across all regions of operation. Therefore, for entities or subsidiaries not explicitly covered in the present Sustainability Statement, Alpha Bank confirms that efforts are underway to extend these frameworks and assessments. Reasons for this stem from varying stages of implementation of standardized materiality assessments and data collection processes across regions such as local regulatory requirements, operational structures, and resource availability. Opportunities Current Financial Effect In order to assess the magnitude of the current financial effect, the Bank has evaluated if any material ESG related opportunities (EU Taxonomy aligned and other sustainable financings according to the Bank’s SFF) have been recognized during the current financial year. Anticipated Financial Effect BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 61 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT In the short-term horizon, the Group identifies material opportunities by leveraging the projected growth of sustainable financing, as outlined in its SFF and reflected in the first year of its Business Plan. For the medium- and long-term horizons, the materiality assessment is based on the Group’s expectations for the growth of sustainable financing in the future. This is supported by the anticipated increase in relevant risks where applicable (e.g., physical risks are expected to intensify over time, leading to a rise in adaptation-related financings). Regarding the monitoring process, the Group integrated climate risks into its overall risk management framework. More specifically, the Group has already incorporated in its Risk Appetite Framework (RAF) a set of quantitative indicators and qualitative commitments regarding climate risks. In terms of quantitative indicators, the Bank has defined several C&E indicators designed to improve the sustainability of the portfolio and mitigate potential exposure to risk and are incorporated in Risk Appetite Framework as supporting elements. Additionally, limits have been established in part of the existing C&E indicators. The indicators cover the area of business planning and green financing, collateral vulnerability to physical and transition risk, financial activity vulnerability to physical risk and sustainable investing. In 2024 the Group has updated its Risk Inventory to provide a comprehensive overview of the enhancements and progress achieved in climate-related risks in the its Risk Registry, by incorporating additional limits. Description of how connections of impacts and dependencies with risks and opportunities that may arise from those impacts and dependencies have been considered The relationship between risks/opportunities and impacts/dependencies is not considered simple/ one-dimensional. Instead, risks and opportunities may arise from a combination of underlying factors, including impacts, dependencies, and other external factors such as regulatory requirements and the associated obligations of the Group . Generally, risks and opportunities related to climate change mitigation and biodiversity and ecosystems are primarily linked to impacts in the downstream portfolio and the transition efforts of clients aimed at minimizing these negative effects. In contrast, risks associated with climate change adaptation are predominantly tied to dependencies and damages from extreme physical events. The training and skills development related risks are primarily linked to the Bank's dependency on human capital. Privacy risks are mainly connected with external factors, including regulatory changes such as GDPR and cyber threats, which can undermine trust and reputation and potentially result in significant financial losses. Risks related to access to quality information and responsible marketing practices are primarily linked to external factors such as evolving regulatory requirements, industry standards, and societal expectations. Failure to provide accurate, transparent, and accessible information or to adhere to responsible marketing practices could damage the Group’s reputation, erode customer trust, and potentially result in regulatory penalties or financial losses. Business conduct-related risks are linked to both impacts and dependencies and are strongly influenced by strict compliance requirements. Failure to meet these obligations adequately could result in significant financial impacts for the Group. Decision-making process and the related internal control procedures The process was based on existing methodologies and capabilities, such as the ESG Risk Materiality Assessment for financial materiality, as well as widely adopted tools for impact materiality like the UNEP FI Portfolio Impact Analysis Tool. Various alternative methodological assumptions were carefully assessed and discussed to conclude to the more appropriate methodology to be followed for double materiality assessment purposes. A close collaboration between Divisions of the Group (Governance and Sustainability Division and the Climate, ESG, and Enterprise Risk Management Division, Human Resources, Compliance and Finance) was ensured to derive the final double materiality assessment outcome. Oversight and frequent input from senior personnel, along with regular Steering Committee meetings, were key to safeguarding the soundness of the analysis. The meetings involved the participation of the Heads of the Divisions involved (e.g. Governance and Sustainability Division, Climate, ESG, and Enterprise Risk Management Division, Internal Audit, Data Privacy, HRBP and International Support, etc.). Governance and Sustainability Division was responsible for impact materiality assessment and opportunities assessment in the context of financial materiality. Climate, ESG, and Enterprise Risk Management Division was the primary responsible for the financial materiality assessment of risks. Additionally, an external consultant provided support by contributing to high-level design principles and assisting with or reviewing and challenging quantitative and qualitative analyses and key assumptions, review and benchmark of analyses against relevant market practices, providing recommendations to the working group as needed. The materiality assessment, along with the calculations and assumptions was subsequently reviewed and thoroughly examined at both the working group level (involving all process stakeholders) and the Steering Committee level. Integration of risk and impact assessment into the Group’s overall risk management process The Group adopts a proactive approach to the management of ESG risks. Emphasis is placed on risks arising from climate change, which is a key component of its Risk Management Strategy. Following the recommendations of the TCFD, the Group assesses current and upcoming environmental policies, legal requirements and regulatory guidelines relating to climate and the environment, in order to record and efficiently manage any transitional risks related to its activities. The Group has developed a comprehensive action plan, submitted to the European Central Bank (ECB) in May 2021, in which it presented how the climate risk assessment would be incorporated in its operations and in the risk management process. The implementation of the plan began in June 2021, continued throughout 2022 and was enhanced, taking into consideration the feedback provided by the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM) in the context of the Climate Stress Test, conducted in January 2022, and the Thematic Review of Climate-related and Environmental Risk Strategies, Governance and Risk Management Frameworks, conducted in June 2022. Leveraging on the work already performed in 2022 the Group has proceeded with targeted implementations during 2023 in accordance with Group’s ESG plan commitments, which will continue to be applicable in 2024. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 62 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The Group, acknowledging the relevance and potential impact of the risks stemming from climate and environmental related factors, and especially climate change, and as part of its plan and in alignment with the respective external guidelines, has elaborated further on the ESG incorporation into the risk identification and materiality assessment processes and in the overall risk management framework, and is committed to monitoring, assessing, and managing these risks going forward. More specifically, the following activities have been performed: • The Group has enhanced its credit policy to incorporate the ESG obligor, transaction and overall, per transaction (combination of obligor and transaction) assessment, into its credit approval process. • The Group has updated its Risk Inventory to provide a comprehensive overview of the enhancements and progress achieved in climate and environmental-related risks in the Risk Registry. The main climate-risk transmission channels in the area of risk management include transition risk (e.g. the risk of any negative financial impact on the institution, stemming from the current or from prospective impacts of the transition to an environmentally-sustainable economy on its counterparties or its invested assets), physical risk (e.g. the risk of any negative financial impact on the institution, stemming from the current or prospective impacts of the physical effects of environmental factors on its counterparties or its invested assets) and other social and environmental risk aspects. p.133 Pillar III Disclosures June 30, 2024 • The Group has updated its Materiality Assessment of ESG risks identifying the sectors that are most vulnerable to climate and environmental related risks. In alignment with the guidance across different sources (e.g. ECB, European Banking Authority (EBA), European Commission), the Group considers Climate and Environmental risks as a theme, i.e., as a transversal risk, incorporating such factors as drivers of existing financial and non-financial risk categories in its risk management framework The abovementioned ESG Risk Materiality assessment process has been leveraged for the financial materiality assessment of risks in the context of CSRD. Therefore, the foundations of the approach followed are common, while some differentiations are applied in the methodology followed in order to accommodate the specificities of each assessment. Furthermore, Risk and Control Self-Assessment (RCSA) and Compliance Risk Assessments, which are considered integral part of the Bank’s Risk Management Framework, have been leveraged for the financial materiality assessment of social and governance risks. More information regarding the identification and mitigation of risks associated with other environmental and social factors is provided under [E1-2] Policies related to climate change mitigation and adaptation. Description of how the process to identify, assess and manage opportunities is integrated into the undertaking’s overall management process where applicable Alpha Services and Holdings Group uses its Sustainable Finance Framework and EU Taxonomy to identify ESG-related opportunities. These frameworks provide a structured approach to classify and identify sustainable finance opportunities, ensuring that the Group’s opportunity management practices are aligned with its overall management strategy. More specifically, the Sustainable Finance Framework (“SFF” or “the framework”) can be defined as a guide that sets out a series of approaches and procedures required for classifying financing as sustainable. Specifically, the framework stipulates the decision and classification process, that the Group implements, to categorize its financial products or services as sustainable (i.e., green, or social). The main purpose of the framework is to enable the identification and categorization of sustainable activities and to lay out the criteria to characterize specific loans as sustainable. The Group’s actions focus on the increase in Sustainable Financings and the reduction of financings that may have a negative impact on the environment and people’s health and wellbeing. In addition, policies and procedures are developed to reduce the operational environmental footprint and to strengthen the commitments associated with this objective. The Group’s strategic plan aims to address the risks and utilize new business opportunities to increase its positive effect on society and the environment, while effectively generating value for its stakeholders. In this respect, strategic commitments and targets are being updated with the ultimate objective to effectively manage any ESG related issues and improve environmental and social impacts. With the operationalization of the framework, information on lending transactions is being processed and stored internally along with any relevant documentation, analyzed, and monitored by relevant areas of the Group. The Bank is expected to regularly report its performance against its strategic plan and specifically its progress in meeting the sustainable financing target. The Bank intends to disclose information in relation to the financings which are characterized as sustainable and to the extent possible, a breakdown of the use of proceeds by eligible themes, in scope business areas, geographical location and refinancing versus new financing. Reporting information will be made publicly available on an annual basis through its Sustainability Report or dedicated Sustainable Finance report. Integration into Overall Management Process: The process to identify, assess, and manage impacts, risks, and opportunities is fully integrated into Alpha Bank’s overall risk management process. This integration allows the Bank to evaluate our overall risk profile comprehensively, ensuring that all potential and actual impacts and risks are identified, assessed, and managed effectively. Description of how process to identify, assess and manage impacts, risks and opportunities has changed compared to prior reporting period BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 63 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT As part of our preparation for CSRD reporting, the Group has conducted a double materiality assessment (DMA) in conformance with the ESRS standards. This marks a significant change from the previous materiality assessment methodology. Specifically: Transition to Double Materiality: Previously, the Bank assessed and prioritized ESG issues related to its activities that could impact the Group’s operations and/or its stakeholders through an impact materiality analysis process, in accordance with GRI Standards (2021) for materiality analysis (impact-based). This year, the Group has adopted a double materiality approach to capture both the inside-out impacts of its operations on the environment and society, as well as the outside-in risks and opportunities that various ESG matters could generate for the Bank’s business. Due Diligence: A more detailed exercise was performed in the content of the CSRD requirements, regarding thorough investigation of its business activities and operations across geographical areas, business relationships, as well as policies, processes and actions in place for achieving its strategic targets and long-term goals. Last Modification Date: The process was last modified in 2024 to incorporate these enhancements and to align with the double materiality principles outlined in the ESRS. Future Revision Dates: Future revisions of the materiality assessment have not been planned yet however all three short, medium, and long- term time horizons shall be considered. Climate-related impacts, risks and opportunities Impact Impact materiality analysis identified that climate-related impact was deemed material as a result of the Group’s activity in the following sectors (table includes the top 10 contributing sectors, as a result of the Group’s Banking sector activity): TABLE 12 TOP CONTRIBUTING SECTORS FOR CLIMATE-RELATED IMPACT a/a Sectors 1 50 Water transport 2 35 Electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply 3 68 Real estate activities 4 41 Construction of buildings 5 24 Manufacture of basic metals 6 19 Manufacture of coke and refined petroleum products 7 42 Civil engineering 8 51 Air transport 9 49 Land transport and transport via pipelines 10 20 Manufacture of chemicals and chemical products Risks Climate risks: Definition and Identification Climate-related risks are the financial risks posed by the exposure of institutions to counterparties that may potentially contribute to or be affected by climate change. This could, for example, take the form of physical damage caused by extreme weather events or a decline in the asset value of a counterparty that operates in carbon-intensive sectors subject to taxation on CO 2 . • Physical: Physical risks are the risks of any negative financial impact on the institution stemming from the current or prospective impacts of the physical effects of environmental factors on its counterparties or invested assets. They are typically defined as risks which arise from the physical effects of climate change and environmental degradation and can be categorized as following: o Acute: which arise from particular/extreme events, especially weather-related events such as droughts, storms, floods, fires or heatwaves, or other environmental hazards that may damage production facilities and disrupt value chains. o Chronic: which arise from longer-term trends (progressive shifts in climate and weather patterns or a gradual loss of ecosystem services), such as temperature changes, rising sea levels, reduced water availability, biodiversity loss and changes in land and soil productivity. • Transition: Transition risks are the risks of any negative financial impact on the institution stemming from the current or prospective impacts of the transition to an environmentally sustainable economy on its counterparties or invested assets, including: o climate and environment related policy changes, for example, as a result of energy efficiency requirements, carbon-pricing mechanisms that increase the price of fossil fuels, or policies to encourage a sustainable use of environmental resources; o technological changes, for example, if a technology with a less damaging impact on the climate or the environment replaces a technology that is more damaging, hence making it obsolete or uncompetitive; o behavioral changes, for example, if the choices of consumers and investors shift towards products and services that are more sustainable; or if it becomes more difficult to attract and retain Customers, Employees, business partners and investors when a counterparty has a reputation for damaging the climate and the environment. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 64 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • Liability: Liability risk in the context of ESG factors relates to the risk stemming from people or businesses seeking compensation for losses they may have incurred due to ESG factors, e.g., when institutions’ counterparties are held accountable for the negative impact, they have on ESG factors through their activities. 1 In alignment with the relevant external guidance across different sources 2 , The Grouphas incorporated ESG factors as drivers of existing financial and non-financial risk categories (e.g. credit risk, operational risk, market risk, liquidity risk etc.) in its risk management framework. The table below provides an indicative illustration of the way existing risk types could be affected by Climate and Environmental drivers: TABLE 13 INDICATIVE IMPACT OF CLIMATE RELATED RISK DRIVERS Indicative impact of Climate related risk drivers Risk Type Transition Physical Credit risk - Impact on the credit risk parameters (PD, LGD, EAD) as a result of transition risk events, affecting the creditworthiness of counterparties (e.g. increased PD of companies sensitive to transition risk factors, impact on collateral values from physical risk related events and from disorderly transition to low- carbon economy). - Impact on the credit risk parameters (PD, LGD, EAD) as a result of physical risk events, within sectors or geographies vulnerable to physical risk (e.g. through lower collateral valuations in real estate portfolios as a result of increased flood risk). Market risk - Volatility and reduction in values and risk returns of financial assets (e.g. corporate/sovereign bonds, equity) from climate-related factors (e.g. from transition risk drivers leading to repricing of securities and derivatives). - Volatility and reduction in values and risk returns of financial assets (e.g. corporate/sovereign bonds, equity) from climate-related factors (e.g. from physical events leading to repricing of securities and/or derivatives). Liquidity risk - Volatility and reduction in values and risk returns of financial assets (e.g. corporate/sovereign bonds, equity) from climate-related factors (e.g. from transition risk drivers leading to repricing of securities and derivatives), which may reduce the value of high-quality liquid assets, thereby affecting the liquidity buffer. - Impact through Bank’s ability to raise funds or liquidate assets, e.g.: o The ability to access stable sources of funding is reduced. o Climate-related asset classes/instruments are prioritized over other traditional asset classes/instruments. o Deposits and credit lines are drawn down by counterparties. - Volatility and reduction in values and risk returns of financial assets (e.g. corporate/sovereign bonds, equity) from climate-related factors (e.g. from physical events leading to repricing of securities and derivatives), which may reduce the value of high-quality liquid assets, thereby affecting the liquidity buffer. - Impact through Bank’s ability to raise funds or liquidate assets, e.g.: o The ability to access stable sources of funding is reduced. o Climate-related asset classes/instruments are prioritized over other traditional asset classes/instruments. o Deposits and credit lines are drawn down by counterparties. Operational risk - The Bank may incur fines due to lack of consideration on compliance with environmental standards or as a result of the greenwashing, leading to conduct risk. - The Bank’s operations may be disrupted due to physical risk events, (e.g. extreme weather event) leading to damages to physical assets or critical infrastructure that is essential for providing services to Customers (e.g. property, branches, energy supply, data centers etc.). Business and Strategic risk - Failure to account for rising ESG factors, having as key drivers the potential shift in consumer preferences, behavioral/ demand patterns, market sentiment and the potential change in the competitive landscape, leading to misalignment of business model to market - Failure to account for the occurrence of extended physical risk events (chronic and/or acute) impacting financed activities /sectors more vulnerable to such risks and consequently the Bank’s business model- 1 Liability risks are sometimes considered either physical or transition risks. They could, however, also be considered a separate risk category as they may not only arise from 2 Some indicative regulatory and other references are: i) In the 2020 ECB Guide on climate-related and environmental risks: “Institutions are expected to incorporate climate related and environmental risks as drivers of existing risk categories into their risk management framework.” and “Climate-related and environmental risks may, in fact, be drivers of several different risk categories and subcategories of existing risk categories simultaneously.” ii) In the 2021 EBA Report on management and supervision of ESG risks for credit institutions and investment firms: “The EBA recommends that institutions manage ESG risks as drivers of financial risks, in a manner consistent with the risk appetite, and as reflected in both the ICAAP and ILAAP frameworks.” In the 2021 European commission final study, “Development of tools and mechanisms for the integration of environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors into the EU banking prudential framework and into banks' business strategies and investment policies”: “The majority of banks mentioned that this requires a clear mapping of ESG risks as drivers of existing risk types, rather than treatment as a stand-alone risk type”, “Most banks that include ESG risks in their RAF fall under the second category, meaning they consider ESG risk as a transversal risk driver.” and “Participants acknowledged the impact ESG risks can have on financial and non- financial risks, as opposed to considering ESG risk as a standalone risk type.” In the Climate Financial Risk Forum Guide 2020, “Risk Management Chapter”: “Good practice is to treat climate risk as a cross-cutting risk type that manifests through most of the established principal / standalone risk types.” BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 65 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT practices (e.g. not being able to finance the environmental transition). Reputational risk - Impact on the Bank’s public perception and reputation and consequently in its valuation, considering also changing market and consumer sentiment, due to its association with activities and counterparties linked to adverse environmental impacts (e.g. financing of companies with significant polluting activities, investments in sectors with high GHG emissions etc.). - Continually rising stakeholder expectations in the area of climate risk (e.g. Bank’s commitments regarding the mitigation of climate risk) could lead to reputational risk, if the Bank does not deliver fully on its position. Materiality Assessment Methodology and Results Current Financial Effect As already mentioned in [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities, to assess the magnitude of the current financial effect, the Bank has evaluated if any material climate related operational risk losses (referring to both climate change mitigation and climate change adaption) have been recognized during the current financial year. For 2024, the Bank has not identified any material losses from climate-related risks. Therefore, the current financial effect from those risks is considered not material. Anticipated Financial Effect – Transition risk Time Horizons For financial materiality purposes, Alpha Bank S.A. defines the reference time horizons in alignment with CSRD guidance as follows: Transition risks have been estimated in different time horizons, in alignment with ESRS recommendations: (a) for the short-term time horizon: 1 st year (2025); (b) for the medium-term time horizon: from the 2 nd year and up to 5 years (2026-2030); and (c) for the long-term time horizon: more than 5 years (>2030). These horizons were chosen to also align with scientific pathways that limit warming to 1.5°C. This requires halving global GHG emissions by 2030 and approaching zero by 2050. These time horizons are also in line with the Greek Climate Law that has set a target for net zero by 2050, and an interim target of reducing GHG emissions by 55% in 2030 compared to 1990 emissions. Materiality Assessment As already mentioned in [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities, the Bank has recognized the sectors that are sensitive to transition risk (climate change mitigation), by taking into consideration several factors (e.g., CPRS perimeters, NZBA/ LTS 2050, emission intensities, etc.). In addition to the above, the Bank conducted a top-down qualitative materiality assessment for transition risk sub-types (market, technology, reputation, policy and legal) as proposed by the TCFD, in order to identify the climate-related transition risks that materially affect each sector. Each transition risk sub-type is comprised of risk drivers, such as: • Policy and legal: policy developments (carbon pricing mechanisms, reporting obligations, policy mandates) that attempt to constrain actions that contribute to the adverse effects of climate change or policy developments that seek to promote adaptation to climate change, as well as climate-related litigation claims. • Market: all shifts in supply and demand for certain commodities, products, and services. Capital markets are well-versed in identifying and assessing market risks. However, climate change will have unique implications in the supply and demand of certain commodities, products, and services. • Reputation: all risks tied to changing customer or community perceptions of an organization’s contribution to or detraction from the transition to a lower-carbon economy. • Technology: all risks associated with technological improvements or innovations that support the transition to a lower-carbon, energy-efficient economic system. Financial risks may arise if no new investments are made in new technologies that contribute to climate-related adaptation and risk mitigation. To estimate the likelihood of the transition risks, in alignment with the net zero scenario, more recent literature scenarios, strategic plans and roadmaps were used, to qualitatively estimate the probability of occurrence of each transition risk driver: • IEA, 2021, Net Zero by 2050 “A roadmap for the global energy sector” • Ministry of Energy and Environment, 2023, National Plan for Energy and Climate (Draft version) • Ministry of Energy and Environment, 2019, National Plan for Energy and Climate • National Inventory of Greece Report 2023 BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 66 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • UN Environment Program, Sectoral Risk Briefings: Insights for Financial Institutions, 2024 • Ministry of Energy and Environment, 2024, National Plan for Energy and Climate • UNEP FI – Climate Risks in the Power Generation Sector, 2024 • UNEP FI – Climate Risks in the Metals and Mining Sector, 2024 • UNEP FI – Climate Risks in the Transportation Sector, 2024 • UNEP FI – Climate Risks in the Industrials Sector, 2023 • European Cement Association, 2021 • Science-based decarbonization pathways for the European Aluminum Industry – European Aluminum • European Commission – Reducing emissions from the shipping sector Following the assessment for transition risk sub-types, a Total Average transition risk score per sector and for all the time horizons is calculated. Likelihood of occurrence As outlined in [SBM-3] Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model, the Bank undertook a qualitative materiality assessment for transition risk sub-types to identify the climate-related transition risks that materially impact each sector within the transition risk-sensitive perimeter across different time horizons. The scale of the transition risk is defined by combining the outcome of the Likelihood and the Impact analysis which are performed at sector level: • Likelihood: the probability of occurrence within a provided time horizon • Impact analysis: the extent to which the impact, if occurred, would affect the business Following the assessment for transition risk sub-types, a Total Average transition risk score per sector and for all the time horizons is calculated. This score is considered as a proxy for the likelihood of occurrence of an anticipated financial effect for the Bank. Anticipated Magnitude of Financial Effect In order to evaluate the potential magnitude of financial effects for transition risk, the Bank has calculated the percentage of the Bank’s exposures lying within the Sensitive perimeter over Total Group Assets categorized under High, Medium and Low likelihood of occurrence categories across the different time horizons. The following materiality thresholds (that should apply simultaneously) are considered, in order to characterize climate change mitigation risk as material: • at least 5% of exposures within the Sensitive perimeter over Group Total Assets under High likelihood of occurrence, and • at least 10% of exposures within the Sensitive perimeter over Group Total Assets under a combination of High and Medium likelihood of occurrence. The results of the materiality assessment performed are illustrated in the table below: TABLE 14 ANTICIPATED FINANCIAL EFFECT – CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION Anticipated Financial Effect – Risks Short-Term (2025) Medium-Term (2026-2030) Long-Term (>2030) Climate change mitigation Not material Material Material As shown on the table above, in the medium- and long-term horizons the anticipated financial effect is found to be material on an inherent level basis, considering that the percentage of the Bank’s exposures towards sectors sensitive to transition risk over the total Group Assets exceeds the established materiality threshold. In the short-term horizon, the anticipated financial effect is found to be below the established materiality threshold and, therefore, considered not material. Anticipated Financial Effect – Physical risk As already mentioned in [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities, the Group performs a vulnerability assessment (at both sectoral and regional level) to identify potential significant hazards per sector covered by the analysis for Business portfolio, as well as across the different geographic regions where real estate properties used as collateral are located. Sectoral analysis - Vulnerability analysis of Business Portfolio on Physical climate risk Sensitivity Analysis Regarding the sectoral analysis conducted at NACE code level, the sensitivity analysis is focused on the sensitivity of the top 20 subsectors, for the 16 climate hazards [Changing temperature (air, freshwater, marine water), Changing wind patterns, Changing precipitation patterns and types (rain, hail, snow/ice), Sea level rise, Soil and coastal erosion, Soil degradation, Coldwaves/frost, Wildfire, Cyclone, hurricane, typhoon, storm and tornado, Heavy precipitation (rain, hail, snow/ice) , Landslide and subsidence]. The sensitivity is assessed for each sub-sector per climate hazard using a 3-level score of ‘High’, ‘Medium’ or ‘Low’: BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 67 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • High sensitivity: the climate hazard may have a significant impact • Medium sensitivity: the climate hazard may have a moderate impact • Low sensitivity: the climate hazard has no (or an insignificant) impact The sensitivity has been assessed in three different time-horizons in alignment with the ESRS recommendations: (a) for the short-term time horizon: one year (2025); (b) for the medium-term time horizon: from the 2nd year and up to 5 years (2026-2030); and (c) for the long-term time horizon: more than 5 years (>2030). These horizons were chosen due to their alignment with scientific pathways and in line with the Energy and Climate National Plan and the Greek Climate Law. Exposure Analysis The analysis resulted in the assessment of the exposure to future climate risks in country level using the maximum value in the geographic unit under assessment (country or climate zone) for the three-time horizons (2025, 2026-2030, >2030). For the estimation of exposure to existing climate conditions, available historical data are used for the specific geographical regions falling under the scope of the current analysis. For the estimation of exposure to future conditions, climate simulation models and climate projections were considered for the adverse scenario of evolution of greenhouse gas emissions RCP8.5, with horizons of 2030 and 2050. RCP8.5 projects the reasonable worst-case scenario and is widely used for climate risk assessment and stress-testing. RCP8.5 was specifically selected as a high-end baseline scenario and was not intended to be portrayed as the most likely “business as usual” no-policy outcome. It is important to note that climate variables’ values and impacts will only strongly differ with other scenarios in the long-term (2070-2100), while being close to others up to 2050. Different time horizons have been defined by means of 30-year or 20-year timeframes following literature best practices 1 The assessment of the exposure level provides a detailed analysis of physical climate risks at a corporate level. This is based on a common clear and defined system for all climate parameters, accepted by the scientific community, that takes into account changes in climate parameters in different chronological periods and corresponds to percentage changes in corresponding exposure categories. Inputs are composed of experiments under the CORDEX initiative, which combines global and regional climate models with a horizontal spatial resolution of 11 km 2 . For the current conditions, the timeframe climate (1981-2010) was considered, whereas two different timeframes (2030 and 2050) were used for the analysis of future conditions. For each climate risk, indicators are provided to measure exposure, based on the climate scenarios of the evolution of GHG gas emissions (RCP 8.5, which is considered a high-emission scenario), as determined by the IPCC and the scientific community. The analysis focuses on a subset of selected climate physical risks, which are considered the most relevant to the structural characteristics of real estate properties in Greece, based on relevant literature. The selected climate physical risks are divided into chronic and acute risks based on TCFD and EU taxonomy classification: • Chronic: sea level rise, soil erosion • Acute: wildfire, cyclone/ hurricane/ typhoon/ storm/ tornado, floods. These climate risks have been analyzed using the following climate indicators. Where datasets were not available, dynamic maps and variables were used to estimate the local exposure. An example of this is the sea level rise indicator, for which some locations are not covered. In this case, the external source of NASA - IPCC AR 6 Sea Level Projection Tool 3 is used, in order to complete the exposure assessment. For the flood risk, the retention of the worst-case scenario for either pluvial or fluvial floods in each NUTS 3 region, alternating between the two indicators each time, is ensured.

According to the current building energy efficiency regulation, our country is divided into four climate zones, as shown in the figure below. Climate data of the RCA4 results were retrieved at a horizontal resolution of ~11 km for the Greek domain. The domain consists of approximately 75 x 82 grid cells. NUTS 3 level results are an outcome of an aggregated approach, by taking the average of the corresponding grid-cell points belonging in this NUTS 3. For each indicator and each point of the grid, the value displayed is computed by averaging the projections of several climate models for a given combination of {geography x scenario x horizon} and corresponds as such to the “mean” value of the indicator for the given combination. The value displayed for each indicator and grid point is computed by averaging the projections specifically for the RCP 8.5 scenario and the horizons 2030 and 2050. Exposure fields are defined for each combination of indicator, RCP 8.5 scenario, time horizons 2030 and 2050, and climate type, based on predefined global thresholds derived from scientific literature for assessing exposure levels (low, medium, high). Regarding the definition of the thresholds, whenever possible, absolute thresholds across all climate types have been derived from recognized scale as presented in the following table. For instance, flooding thresholds defined are based on World Bank classification, while water stress thresholds directly derive from WRI classification.

Regional analysis - Vulnerability analysis of Real Estate properties on Physical climate risk It is worth noting that some of the loan exposures of the Bank may be covered by both the approach applied at NACE sector level (covered in previous section) and the approach described here. The previous approach examines the activity/sector of borrowers and their degree of vulnerability to physical risk, while this approach examines the vulnerability of real estate property collaterals that may exist and, to that extent, the potential vulnerability of loan exposures is linked to these collaterals. Therefore, the drivers or “transmission mechanisms” of physical risks are different between these two cases. To achieve a higher granularity level in the exposure analysis regarding real estate properties portfolio, a location-specific risk analysis has been conducted, using geospatial mapping and local geographical characteristics based on identified NUTS 3 levels. In this way, the Bank can assess materiality to different hazards in more detail in terms of location of collaterals. The final assessment outcome is presented in terms of High/Medium/Low exposure levels, using relevant hazard metrics averaged to provide the results resolution of location data of the Bank under the three time horizons (short – 2025 / medium –2026-2030 / long – >2030). For each NUTS 3 level region, a comprehensive grid of points is plotted on the map to ensure detailed coverage of each different prefecture. The physical risk level presented is an average derived from these specific locations (with averaging over several nearest neighbor grid points), for each NUTS 3 level, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of risks at a localized level. However, variations from the reported average risk level may occur when compared to the individual grid points within a NUTS 3 level region. Likelihood of occurrence Based on the Vulnerability assessment (at both sectoral and regional level) as described above, the vulnerability assessment outcome is considered as a proxy for the likelihood of occurrence of an anticipated financial effect for the Bank. 1 Using alternative soil moisture estimates in the McArthur Forest Fire Danger Index, 2017 2 Quantifying the Occurrence of Multi-Hazards Due to Climate Change, 2022 3 Flood Exposure and Poverty in 189 Countries 4 Sea Level Projection Tool, Nasa 5 Global and European sea level rise, 2024 6 Global Soil Erosion BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 69 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT For the regional analysis the factors taken into consideration are wildfire, flood, cyclone, sea level rise and soil erosion. For the sectoral analysis the factors that are considered are changing temperature, heat stress and permafrost thawing, changing wind patterns, changing precipitation patterns and types (rain, hail, snow/ice), sea level rise, water stress, soil and coastal erosion, soil degradation, heatwaves, cold waves/ frost, wildfire, cyclone, hurricane, typhoon, storm and tornado, droughts, Heavy precipitation (rain, hail, snow/ice), floods and landslide and subsidence. Potential Magnitude of Financial Effects Following the aforementioned vulnerability assessment, the Bank has identified sectors and regions categorized under High, Medium, and Low Likelihood of Occurrence. Subsequently, the Bank calculated the percentage of its exposures classified as High, Medium, or Low Likelihood of Occurrence over the Total Group Assets, considering regional and sectoral analyses over different time horizons. A materiality threshold has been set, taking into consideration Bank’s 'exposures over Group Total Assets’ lying under High Likelihood of Occurrence category (set at 10% of the Bank’s 'exposures over Group Total Assets’ under High Likelihood of Occurrence). The results of the materiality assessment performed are illustrated in the table below: TABLE 17 ANTICIPATED FINANCIAL EFFECT – RISKS (CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION) Anticipated Financial Effect - Risks Short-Term (2025) Medium-Term (2026-2030) Long-Term (>2030) Climate change adaptation Not material Material Material As shown on the table above, in the short-term horizon, the anticipated financial effect is found to be below the established materiality threshold (that is set at 10% of the Bank’s 'exposures over Group Total Assets’ under High Likelihood of Occurrence) and, therefore, it is considered not material. In the medium- and long-term horizons the anticipated financial effect is found to be material on an inherent level basis, considering that for some physical risk factors (e.g., wildfire in case of the regional analysis and floods in case of sectoral analysis) the anticipated occurrence is relatively high. Opportunities Current Financial Effect As mentioned under [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities, in order to assess the magnitude of the current financial effect, the Bank has evaluated if any material related opportunities related to climate change mitigation and climate change adaptation (EU Taxonomy aligned and other sustainable financings according to the Bank’s SFF) have been recognized during the current financial year. A threshold of Euro 1 billion has been set in order to consider an opportunity as material. For 2024, material climate change mitigation opportunities have been identified (exceeding the threshold of Euro 1 billion), while no climate change adaptation related opportunities were identified. Anticipated Financial Effect The materiality assessment performed by the Bank indicates that there is material opportunity for climate change mitigation in the short-, medium- and long-term. Regarding the short-term horizon the Bank expects increase of the sustainable financings towards climate change mitigation objective (thus they will continue, exceeding the relevant threshold) in the Business Plan horizon. Accordingly, in the medium and long-term horizon the expectation is that this type of financings will continue increasing. A threshold of Euro 1 billion has been set in order to consider an opportunity as material. Climate change adaptation is considered a material opportunity only in the long-term horizon, as physical risks are anticipated to intensify over time and therefore financings related to adaptation are expected to grow, surpassing the materiality threshold of Euro 1 billion. Regarding the short-term horizon the Bank does not expect material opportunities – that exceed the threshold of Euro 1 billion (i.e., sustainable financings towards climate change adaptation activities) in the Business Plan horizon. Accordingly, even in the medium -term horizon the Bank does not expect material opportunities – that exceed the threshold of Euro 1 billion. TABLE 18 ANTICIPATED FINANCIAL EFFECT – OPPORTUNITIES (CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION AND ADAPTATION) Anticipated Financial Effect - Opportunities Short-Term (2025) Medium-Term (2026-2030) Long-Term (>2030) Climate Change Mitigation Material Material Material Climate Change Adaptation Not material Not material Material For financial materiality purposes, Alpha Bank has defined the time horizons in alignment with CSRD guidance as follows: BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 70 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • Short-term horizon: Defined at 1 year ahead of the assessment; (aligned with the assumptions for the first year of budgeting and business planning process, as well as the regular stress testing scenarios for solvency and liquidity purposes). • Medium-term horizon: Defined from the 2 nd year and up to 5 years beyond the assessment (2026-2030). This horizon is closely aligned with the strategic planning horizon of Alpha Bank, representing the core timeframe within which the bank's strategic objectives, financial goals, and key sustainability initiatives are designed and implemented. • Long-term horizon: Defined as a minimum of 6 years beyond the assessment date, extending further as appropriate to align with the type of climate risk being assessed and the timeframe over which it can be reliably addressed. (>2030). The average maturity of the Bank’s NFC portfolio is approximately five years and therefore the majority of the Bank’s NFC portfolio (c. 63%) has a residual maturity equal or below five years, while the average maturity of the Bank’s real estate portfolio is c. 14 years, with the majority of the Bank’s real estate portfolio (c. 58%) having a residual maturity between one and 16 years. Identification of assets and business activities that are incompatible with or need significant efforts to be compatible with a transition to a climate-neutral economy The Group does not have any operational or financed locked-in emissions, or any other assets or activities that could jeopardize the achievement of its net zero target. Compatibility of climate scenarios with climate-related assumptions made in the financial statements As part of its financial materiality assessment, the Bank utilizes widely recognized science based decarbonization scenarios (e.g., IEA NZE) and other climate scenarios to evaluate the likelihood of transition risks, quantify the anticipated financial effects of climate risk, and derive the financial materiality outcome. In the context of its decarbonization strategy, the Bank has incorporated decarbonization targets in specific sectors (Cement, Power generation, Oil and Gas, Iron and Steel), leveraging on the IEA NZE scenario, which is closely aligned with the scenarios utilized for DMA purposes. In addition, the scenarios utilized in the context of the financial materiality assessment of climate physical risks reflect the resilience analysis performed by the Bank to estimate the impact of climate physical risks, in the context of ICAAP or other similar processes or one-off exercises. Pollution-related impacts, risks and opportunities Impact The process followed is described in [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities. The Impact materiality analysis has not identified any Pollution impact as material to the Group’s downstream activities. No material impacts to Pollution of water, soil and air have been concluded deriving from the Group’s products/services (downstream value chain), as the Group’s portfolio did not indicate material association with sectors contributing significantly to pollution. Furthermore, currently there is no projection of significant changes to the mix of portfolio indicating a material impact to Pollution for the future time horizons. Risks Current Financial Effect In order to assess the magnitude of the current financial effect, the Bank has evaluated if any material pollution-related operational risk losses have been recognized during the current financial year. For 2024, no pollution-related operational losses have been recognized. Anticipated Financial Effect The materiality assessment performed by the Bank indicates that pollution is not material in the short- (2025), medium-(2026-2030) and long- term (>2030), following the same methodology with biodiversity and ecosystems explicitly described under [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities. Likelihood of Occurrence The risk assessment methodology utilized in order to estimate the likelihood of occurrence is explicitly described under [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities. Anticipated Magnitude of Financial Effect Based on this methodology pollution is considered immaterial across time horizons, since the percentage of the exposures over the Group Total Assets does not exceed the respective thresholds.

For 2024, has not identified any losses from biodiversity and ecosystems-related risks. Therefore, the current financial impact from those risks is considered not material. Anticipated Financial Effects Impact Analysis As already mentioned in [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities, the materiality assessment performed by the Bank indicates that biodiversity and ecosystems topic is material in the long-term (>2030) horizon. More specifically, the Bank performed an analysis based on UNEP FI Portfolio Impact Analysis tool to assess the negative impact of the sectors (analyzed at the 4-digit NACE level) within its Non-Financial Corporate portfolio to UNEP FI impact topics. For the purposes of the analysis, the relevant impact topics are mapped with ESRS Topics/Sub-Topics and Sub-sub-topics (in the case of biodiversity and ecosystems to habitats and species). The Bank has adopted a conservative approach, assuming that if a sector significantly impacts either Species or Habitat, it consequently has a key negative impact on Biodiversity. As mentioned, the assessment considered relevant impact topics and "key sectors," which are the sectors directly affecting Biodiversity. Likelihood of Occurrence More specifically, and as described in [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities., for each environmental topic (including biodiversity and ecosystems) and for each sector was assigned a transition risk score across different time horizons (short-, medium-, long-term), taking into consideration key environmental regulations or policies which reflect the EU’s commitment to environmental protection and sustainable development. These factors may affect the financial performance and credit capabilities of companies in affected sectors that lag in the transition, posing a risk for the Bank relative to its exposure to these sectors. A three-level scale was adopted: • Low: There are no specific regulations or policies affecting this sector. • Medium: There are specific regulations or policies affecting this sector, but there is no defined or pressing time-horizon. • High: There are strict regulations and/or policies in place, with specific time-horizons. This score is considered as a proxy for the likelihood of occurrence of an anticipated financial effect. Anticipated Magnitude of Financial Effects As outlined under [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities, the Bank assessed the potential magnitude of financial effects of biodiversity and ecosystems by calculating the percentage of exposures corresponding to each likelihood of occurrence category (high, medium, low) relative to the Group Total Assets across different time horizons. The following materiality thresholds (that should apply simultaneously) are considered, in order to characterize Biodiversity and Ecosystems as material: • at least 5% of exposures (of key negative sectors as defined by UNEP FI per environmental topic) over Group Total Assets under High likelihood of occurrence, and • at least 10% of exposures (of key negative sectors as defined by UNEP FI per environmental topic) over Group Total Assets under a combination of High and Medium likelihood of occurrence. The results show that biodiversity and ecosystems topic is material, in the long term-horizon since the percentage of the exposures over the Group Total Assets exceed the respective thresholds. TABLE 24 ANTICIPATED FINANCIAL EFFECT – RISKS (BIODIVERSITY AND ECOSYSTEMS) Anticipated Financial Effect - Risks Short-Term (2025) Medium-Term (2026-2030) Long-Term (>2030) Biodiversity and Ecosystems Not material Not material Material BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 74 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT .Dependency Analysis The Bank proceeds with the dependency analysis, adhering to EBA’s Consultation paper on draft Guidelines for managing ESG risks, which states that “Large institutions should develop methods to identify natural capital dependencies, as part of analyses of nature-related or biodiversity risks.” More specifically, in addition to the previously described Impact analysis, the Bank evaluates the environmental dependencies of its business portfolio on natural and ecosystem services. For this purpose, the bank utilizes the ENCORE (Exploring Natural Capital Opportunities, Risks and Exposure) tool, which is designed to assist with evaluating nature-related risks by providing insights into the dependencies on natural resources. For each ecosystem service and economic activity combination, literature reviews were conducted using scientific journals, peer-reviewed papers, key document searches, and grey literature. Standardized search terms and targeted website searches, including leading sector companies and industry initiatives, were also utilized. Industry experts from various economic sectors reviewed the identified dependency links, resulting in a complete evaluation of which of the 25 ecosystem services are essential for the production of each of the 271 economic activities. As a result, a materiality rating was assigned for each identified dependency link between an economic activity and an ecosystem service. When no connection was established, the combination of the economic activity and ecosystem service was marked either as N/A (Not Applicable) or, in cases of insufficient data, as ND (No Data). The materiality rating varies based on the following: • the significance of the loss of functionality in the production process if the ecosystem service is disrupted, and • the significance of the financial loss due to the loss of functionality in the production process. In this context the Bank acknowledges the 25 ecosystem services set out in the ENCORE tool and assesses the economic sectors’ potential dependency on these ecosystem services, by using existing classifications of ecosystem services and economic sectors. At this stage, Alpha Bank applies a mapping of the ISIC sectors (sourced by the ENCORE tool), to the 4-digit NACE sectors classification which is used for monitoring its Non-Financial Corporate (NFC) portfolio. Dependency to an ecosystem service (such as Water purification, Soil quality regulation), is assessed in terms of materiality, by examining the exposures’ distribution to High and Very High scores. The analysis depicts that a significant percentage of its obligors are dependent on some ecosystem services including “Visual Amenity services”, “Recreation-related services”, “Water purification” and “Flood mitigation services”. Even though material dependencies to ecosystem services do not reflect material risks on their own, the analysis is well aligned to the materiality conclusions drawn by the Bank, in particular with respect to Physical Climate risk and Biodiversity risks (mentioned in impact analysis above). Opportunities Current Financial Effect As already mentioned in [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities, in order to assess the magnitude of the current financial effect, the Bank has evaluated if any material biodiversity and ecosystem related opportunities have been recognized during the current financial year. For 2024, no material biodiversity and ecosystem related opportunities were identified, since they do not exceed the threshold of Euro 1 billion that has been set. Anticipated Financial Effect The materiality assessment performed indicates that opportunities related to biodiversity and ecosystem are considered material in the long- term (>2030) horizon, since the Bank anticipates material opportunities towards protection and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystems activities that exceed the threshold of Euro 1 billion (i.e., sustainable financings). Regarding the short- and medium-term horizon the Bank does not expect material opportunities (i.e., material sustainable financings towards protection and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystems related activities) that exceed the threshold of Euro 1 billion based, also, on the Business Plan.

Similarly, the transition risk analysis that is performed for each environmental topic and for each sector is, also considered systemic, as it incorporates key environmental regulations or policies which reflect the EU’s commitment to environmental protection and sustainable development.

Anticipated Financial Effect The materiality assessment performed indicates that opportunities related to circular economy (i.e., material sustainable financings towards transition to circular economy related activities) are considered material in the long-term (>2030) horizon, while for the short- and medium- term horizon the Bank does not expect material opportunities, following the same methodology with biodiversity and ecosystems explicitly described under [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities. TABLE 28 ANTICIPATED FINANCIAL EFFECT – OPPORTUNITIES (CIRCULAR ECONOMY) Anticipated Financial Effect - Opportunities Short-Term (2025) Medium-Term (2026-2030) Long-Term (>2030) Circular Economy Not material Not material Material Business Conduct-related impacts, risks and opportunities The process to identify material impacts, risks and opportunities in relation to business conduct matters are the following: Impacts Please refer to [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities for more information. Risks Current Financial Effect In order to assess the magnitude of the current financial effect, the Bank has evaluated if any material business conduct related operational risk losses have been recognized during the current financial year. For 2024, no material business conduct related operational losses have been recognized. Anticipated Financial Effect To evaluate the anticipated financial effect of business conduct related risks, the Bank conducted a mapping of the respective ESRS sub-topics with the risk types identified within the Compliance Risk Assessment and the corresponding inherent risk assessment outcomes. A four-level scale (Low, Medium Low, Medium High, High) is utilized in the context of the Compliance Assessment. The following dimensions are considered to derive the inherent risk assessment outcome: • Impact: the potential effect on the entity’s objectives should the risk be manifested (Magnitude of financial effects). • Likelihood: the possibility that the risk will manifest over a pre-defined period of time (Likelihood of occurrence). ESRS sub-sub-topics that are assessed as having a High or Medium High inherent risk are deemed material. It is noted that the inherent risk assessment considers which is the impact for the Bank in case the risk is manifested within the next year (short-term) without additional mitigation actions going forward. It is assumed that the same conclusions are, also, applicable in the medium- and long-term horizons. The outcome of the above analysis is presented below: TABLE 29 ANTICIPATED FINANCIAL EFFECT – RISKS (CORRUPTION AND BRIBERY) Anticipated Financial Effect - Risks Short-Term (2025) Medium-Term (2026-2030) Long-Term (>2030) Corruption and Bribery Material Material Material As seen in the above table, business conduct and in particular corruption and bribery is considered material in the short-, medium- and long- term given that AML/CFT risk is assessed as High from an inherent risk perspective.

The list of ESRS Disclosure Requirements complied with in preparing sustainability statement following the outcome of the double materiality assessment can be found under [IRO-2] Disclosure Requirements in ESRS covered by the undertaking’s sustainability statement. ENVIRONMENTAL INFORMATION Disclosures pursuant to Article 8 of Regulation 2020/852 (Taxonomy Regulation) Regulation (EU) 2020/852 (EU Taxonomy) was created to meet the need for a common system for the classification of environmentally sustainable economic activities. At the same time, it forms an integral part of the European Green Deal, as well as of the EU Action Plan on Sustainable Finance. The EU Taxonomy Regulation is effective since July 12th, 2020, and establishes the following six environmental objectives: 1. Climate change mitigation (CCM); 2. Climate change adaptation (CCA); 3. Sustainable use and protection of water and marine resources; 4. Transition to a circular economy; 5. Pollution prevention and control; and 6. Protection and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystems. The 1st Delegated Act (commonly known as the "Climate Delegated Act") concerning the technical criteria for economic activities with a significant contribution to the first two objectives, (i.e., the climate change mitigation and the climate change adaptation), was adopted on July 4th, 2021, and is effective as from January 1st, 2022. Ιn 2023, two new Delegated acts issued by the European Commission have been adopted: 1. The Delegated Act 2023/2485 which includes technical screening criteria of new activities for the substantial contribution to the first two environmental objectives (CCM and CCA), and 2. The Delegated Act 2023/2486 which includes technical screening criteria of new activities for the substantial contribution to the remaining four environmental objectives. According to the Regulation (EU) 2020/852 (EU Taxonomy), the term “eligible” is used for economic activities included in the abovementioned Delegated Acts. However, it should be noted that even if an economic activity is eligible, it does not mean it is also environmentally sustainable. The term "environmentally sustainable activity or investment" is associated with alignment, which requires greater analysis compared to eligibility. To be taxonomy-aligned an economic activity should comply with all the requirements listed in the respective technical criteria, should not do significant harm (DNSH) to other environmental objectives, and should be exercised in accordance with the minimum social safeguards. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 82 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Additionally, the Commission adopted Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178 of 6 July 2021 ("Disclosures Delegated Act"), which supplements Article 8 of the EU Taxonomy Regulation and outlines the required content and format for information disclosure by companies under Articles 19a or 29a of Directive 2013/34/EU. It also details the methodology for fulfilling the disclosure requirements related to environmentally sustainable economic activities. On July 15, 2022, a Complementary Climate Delegated Act (EU) 2022/1214 was published in the Official Journal of the EU, expanding the Taxonomy framework to include specific nuclear and gas energy activities under strict conditions (“Complementary Climate Delegated Act”). TABLE 31 SUMMARY OF KPIS TO BE DISCLOSED BY CREDIT INSTITUTIONS UNDER ARTICLE 8 TAXONOMY REGULATION * For credit institutions that do not meet the conditions of Article 94(1) of the CRR or the conditions set out in Article 325a(1) of the CRR Fees and commissions income from services other than lending and AuM Institutions shall disclose forward-looking information for this KPIs, including information in terms of targets, together with relevant explanations on the methodology applied. *** % of assets covered by the KPI over banks´ total assets based on the Turnover KPI of the counterparty based on the CapEx KPI of the counterparty, except for lending activities where for general lending Turnover KPI is used Implementation in business strategy, product design processes and engagement with clients and counterparties The Group seeks to increase its positive effect on society and the environment, utilizing new business opportunities and generating value for all stakeholders. Through its SFF, the Group supports lending activities as well as other funding instruments with clear environmental and social credentials in alignment with the EU Taxonomy regulation and with the principles established by the International Capital Market Association. Approach for Taxonomy eligibility and alignment assessment The information presented follows the requirements described in Article 7 and Article 10 of the Disclosures Delegated Act. The information relating to Taxonomy is prepared following the prudential approach and consolidation of Alpha Services and Holdings Group, in accordance with the applicable laws. The taxonomy eligibility assessment shows the proportion of the Group’s assets financed and invested in taxonomy-eligible economic activities as a proportion of total covered assets. The taxonomy alignment assessment, and specifically the GAR ratio, shows the proportion of the Group’s assets financing and invested in taxonomy-aligned economic activities as a proportion of total covered assets. The numerator covers the loans and advances, debt securities, equities and repossessed collaterals, financing taxonomy-aligned economic activities based on the Total environmentally sustainable assets Total environmentally sustainable assets* KPI KPI* % coverage (over total assets) % of assets excluded from the numerator of the GAR (Article 7(2) and (3) and Section 1.1.2. of Annex V) % of assets excluded from the denominator of the GAR (Article 7(1) and Section 1.2.4 of Annex V) Main KPI Green asset ratio (GAR) stock 914 1,512 1.7% 2.8% 77.2% 54% 23.8% Total environmentally sustainable assets* Total environmentally sustainable assets KPI KPI % coverage (over total assets) % of assets excluded from the numerator of the GAR (Article 7(2) and (3) and Section 1.1.2. of Annex V) % of assets excluded from the denominator of the GAR (Article 7(1) and Section 1.2.4 of Annex V) Additional KPIs GAR (flow) 195 463 11.1% 19.6% Trading book N/A N/A N/A N/A Financial guarantees 0 0 0% 0% Assets under management 0 0 0% 0% Fees and commissions income* N/A N/A N/A N/A BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 83 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT relevant turnover and CapEx KPIs. The following categories of exposures have been excluded from the calculation of the GAR ratio as necessary: • exposures to central governments, central banks, and supranational issuers (excluded from both the numerator and denominator of KPIs); • exposure in trading portfolio securities (excluded from both the numerator and denominator of KPIs); • exposures in derivatives excluded from the numerator of KPIs; • exposures to entities that are not obliged to publish sustainability information pursuant to Article 19a or Article 29a of Directive (EU) 2013/34 excluded from the numerator of KPIs; • On demand interbank loans excluded from the numerator of KPIs; • Cash and cash-related assets excluded from the numerator of KPIs; • Other categories of assets (e.g. Goodwill, commodities etc.) excluded from the numerator of KPIs; In addition, credit institutions shall disclose the percentage of their total assets that are excluded from the numerator and the denominator of GAR. TheGroup collected the reported information from the latest published taxonomy information and relevant KPIs for the counterparties in scope of Non-Financial Reporting Directive (NFRD). The counterparties that are not in scope of NFRD, and hence not required to report Taxonomy information, are not included in the assessment for taxonomy-eligibility and alignment. For specific purpose funding, which is defined as exposures that have the purpose of financing specific identified activities, (‘known use of proceeds’), project-specific KPIs are used in the assessment for taxonomy-eligibility and alignment. KPIs for off-balance sheet exposures include financial guarantees granted by the credit institution and assets under management for guarantee and investee non-financial undertakings. Other off-balance sheet exposures such as commitments are excluded from that calculation. According to Complementary Climate Delegated Act, credit institutions disclose their exposure to economic activities related to fossil gas and nuclear energy. Exposures relevant to taxonomy-aligned economic activities of nuclear energy and fossil fuel have been included in the numerator and denominator of their KPIs, and exposures relevant to taxonomy-non-eligible nuclear energy and fossil gas related activities are included in the denominator of their KPIs. Limitations in data and information The information for financial undertakings is limited as this is the second year of alignment reporting, and most of the financial undertakings have not yet published their 2024 annual reports. Non-financial undertakings have not published taxonomy information yet for 2024, thus the Taxonomy reporting of alignment for non-financial undertakings is based on data publicly available from 2023. Additionally, information on taxonomy-eligibility for the four environmental objectives implemented in 2024 is not possible due to the lack of data as information collected from latest publicly available taxonomy information by counterparties may not include the new economic activities incorporated in the Delegated Acts issued in 2023. In relation to mortgage lending to households, the technical screening criteria is also constrained due to the lack of complete datapoints for the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) labels of collaterals. In addition, the assessment of DNSH was not possible. For lending with purpose of financing vehicles, the assessment of DNSH criteria was not possible due to unavailability of relevant data, i.e. tires of the motor vehicle etc. Reporting of taxonomy-eligibility and taxonomy-alignment for off-balance sheet exposures is not possible due to the lack of complete datapoints. Additionally, reporting of flow for households is not possible due to the lack of complete datapoints. In view of the CSRD requirements and the continuous amendments on Taxonomy regulation, the Group closely monitors all relevant announcements to ensure transparency and completeness of the information required to be disclosed, both for the current year as well as for the upcoming years. Moreover, the gradual implementation of CSRD is expected to improve the reported Taxonomy KPIs, as it will increase the number of companies in scope of the new directive. ESRS E1 CLIMATE CHANGE [E1-1] Transition plan for climate change mitigation Alpha Services and Holdings Group recognized early the importance of aligning its efforts to supporting the transition to a sustainable economy. Since 2022 it has incorporated sustainable criteria in its lending processes through the issuing of a SFF, applied at Group level. The SFF incorporates environmental and social credentials in lending activities and stipulates the decision and classification process that the Group implements to classify its financial products and services as sustainable. Alpha Services and Holdings acknowledges the importance of the effective integration of its sustainable finance strategy throughout the Group activities and operations. Thus, the Group has built a wide-range SFF governance model which is based on a dynamic structure and aims to ensure an effective decision-making and execution process regarding sustainable financing. Alpha Bank joined in 2023 the UN-convened Net Zero Banking Alliance (NZBA), formally committing to net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. This undertaking reflects the Bank’s societal responsibility, as a leading financial institution in Greece, to help mitigate climate change and drive the transition to a net zero economy. As part of its commitment to environmental stewardship, the Group has developed a comprehensive strategy to achieve net zero emissions, focusing on the following key actions: BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 84 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • Reducing financed emissions: The Group sets climate targets at the sector level to decarbonize its lending and investment portfolio to net zero by 2050, effectively steering capital to support meeting the 2030 Paris Agreement goals and accelerating the real economy transition. • Reducing operational emissions: The Group implements energy-efficiency measures across all Branches, offices, and data centers to reduce its carbon footprint. This includes using electricity from renewable energy sources, optimizing energy consumption, and adopting sustainable practices in day-to-day Group operations. • Financing sustainable projects: The Group allocates capital to Green and Social investments, in line with its SFF, with emphasis on renewables, green buildings and clean transportation. Through sustainable financing, the Bank aims to accelerate the transition to an environmentally sustainable and resilient economy. • Engaging Customers: The Group supports its Customers transition to a low carbon economy, offering advice and flexible financing solutions while facilitating access to funding, via tools like the EU Resilience and Recovery Facility and the Hellenic Development Bank. • Zero financing: The Group is committed to zero financing to new investments in thermal coal mining, coal-fired electricity generation and upstream oil exploration - extraction through the exclusion list that determines specific activities, which are not allowed to be financed. • Foster partnerships: The Group works with different partners to improve its clients’ awareness and understanding of financing solutions and provide an effective ecosystem to enable the transition. • Collaboration and advocacy: The Group actively engages with its stakeholders, aiming to increase awareness and foster sustainable practices to the entire spectrum of financial and social activity. As part of the commitment to supporting the transition to a more sustainable economy, the Group decided to set ambitious goals. As such, the target for sustainable disbursements has been updated and the Group has planned to lend Euro 4.4 billion in sustainable disbursements during 2024-2026. • The main focus will be in the Power sector (solar, wind, grid upgrading, etc.), buildings (energy efficiency, upgrades, heat insulation, certification) and transportation (electric vehicles, alternative fuels). • It is anticipated that sustainability linked loans will be also a key part of the total sustainable lending, providing financial incentives for companies to meet Sustainability Performance Targets (SPTs) and accelerate their decarbonization. As shared within the ESRS 2, part of the Group’s strategy for climate change mitigation and adaptation is the publication within 2025 of a detailed transition plan, setting out planned actions to meet its 2030 emissions targets. To align with the NZBA overarching principles of setting and disclosing long-term and intermediate targets to support meeting a net zero by 2050 greenhouse gas emissions goal, the Group has announced a first-round of sector targets across its lending and investment portfolios. The process followed key steps: 1. Establishing an Emissions Baseline: The Group established an emissions baseline by completing a comprehensive measurement of its financed emissions for 2022, covering investment and lending portfolios, across all financed sectors. The asset class coverage included on-balance sheet exposures in Listed and Unlisted Equity, Corporate Bonds, Sovereign Bonds, Corporate Loans, Commercial Real Estate (CRE), Residential Real Estate (RRE), Motor-Vehicle Loans and Project Finance. SMEs were excluded from the initial perimeter for target setting. The baseline measurement relied on the GHG emissions of its borrowers or investee companies and followed the Global Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Accounting and Reporting Standard for the Financial Industry developed by the PCAF. 2. Focusing on Carbon-Intensive Sectors: As a second step, the target setting exercise focused on the financed emissions within the carbon-intensive sectors recommended by the NZBA. The sectors identified by the NZBA: agriculture, cement, coal, commercial and residential real estate, iron and steel, oil and gas, power generation and transport were mapped to internationally recognized sector classification codes applied by the Group. 3. Prioritizing Key Sectors for Target Setting: the Group prioritized setting targets for the Power Generation, Oil and Gas, Cement and Iron and Steel sectors, taking into consideration each sector’s materiality based on the financed emissions measurement, outstanding exposure, sectoral contribution to Greece’s emissions, the availability of credible sectoral target-setting guidance, data quality and availability, as well as the market practice. 4. Selecting the Value Chain: For each of the four priority sectors, the Group selected the parts of the sector’s value chain that are most material to the Group by exposure and financed emissions, and in which the Bank’s clients have the most control over their emissions. After accounting for the appropriate value chain, these sectors correspond to ~15% and ~54% of Bank’s outstanding exposure and financed emissions, respectively, of the sectors in scope for the NZBA. The targets are compatible with limiting global warming to 1.5C degrees because they employ the widely used, science-based International Energy Agency Net Zero Emissions by 2050 (IEA NZE) scenario as its benchmark pathway. Alpha Services and Holdings recognizes the important role of financial institutions in mobilizing capital towards environmentally sustainable activities and in supporting their clients’ transition to a low-carbon economy. The SFF serves as a key enabler to deliver the sustainable finance strategy of the Group by financing climate mitigation projects. Loyal to its commitment towards the support of an environmentally sustainable economy and to mitigate climate change, the Group has an ambitious plan, with the main decarbonization levers being the increase in Sustainable Financings and the reduction of financings that may have a negative impact on climate and the environment. Additionally, the Group has developed policies and procedures to reduce its operational environmental footprint with the overarching aim being net-zero emissions and setting targets associated with this objective. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 85 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Alpha Services and Holdings actively participates in the global effort to build a sustainable future for the economy and the planet. The Group’s strategy is to align all material elements of the loan and (on balance sheet) investment portfolio with a Science-Based 1.5C pathway, based on the International Energy Agency Net Zero Emissions (IEA NZE) Scenario, adapted to the Bank’s portfolio composition and national characteristics as they apply. The first set of sectors for which targets have been set are Power Generation, Oil and Gas, Iron and Steel and Cement. These sectors constitute over ~64% 1 , 2 of the Bank’s outstanding financed emissions, of the sectors in scope for the NZBA. The metrics selected for targets are Carbon Intensity metrics for all the above sectors, except for Oil and Gas for which absolute emissions have been used. The remaining material carbon-intensive sectors will be included in a subsequent round of target-setting within 2025 in accordance with the NZBA guidelines and in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement (containing global temperature rise to 1.5C and no more than 2C), as well as EU Law, Regulation and Policy (fit-for-55, EU Green Deal). Some sectors may be excluded from target setting due to either methodological limitations and/or due to their limited materiality to the Bank's portfolio. The Group underscores its dedication to sustainability through clear and measurable targets, in line with achieving Net-Zero emissions by 2050. This commitment reinforces its role as a leader in driving positive change both within the financial sector and across broader societal frameworks. To support the transition to an environmentally sustainable economy and address climate change, the Group has developed an ambitious strategy. Its primary focus is to increase sustainable financing while reducing financing that could negatively impact the environment. The Group channels its investments into key areas, including: • Environmental initiatives (Renewable Energy Sources, Waste Management); • Other Energy Projects and Distribution Networks; • Major Infrastructure Projects. As a financial institution, the Group does not have any significant CapEx / OpEx expenditure on climate purposes, as these expenditures constitute a small fraction compared to its lending and investing portfolio. Relevant KPIs for financial institutions as required by Article 8 of the EU Taxonomy Regulation consist of the Green Asset Ratio (GAR) calculated over the stock and flow of its balance sheet as listed in the table below: 1 Before exclusions on segments on value chain covered and SMEs 2 Excluding shipping financed emissions BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 86 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT As of year-end 2024, Alpha Bank's taxonomy eligibility ratio for CCM and CCA was 17.57% (turnover-based). GAR calculations include loans, advances, and securities linked to aligned activities, excluding exposures such as central government assets, trading securities, and non-NFRD entities. Challenges in alignment reporting remain due to data limitations, particularly for off-balance-sheet exposures and household flows. The Group is not excluded from the EU Paris Agreement on climate change and the National Net-Zero emissions target for 2050. The majority of the Bank's counterparties do not yet disclose information on their corresponding revenue split per sector of economic activity. To overcome this limitation, the NACE code of the counterparty's principal activity has been used to identify exposures towards companies excluded from EU Paris-aligned Benchmarks. The following NACE codes have been selected for this purpose: 0510, 0520, 0610, 0620, 1920, 3511, 3521, 3522, 3523, 4671, 4730, 1910, 0910, 4950. Regarding NACE sector D35, the exposures towards Renewable Energy Sources haven’t been considered in PAB exclusions. Non-performing status for exposures is fully aligned with the new Definition of Default regulatory guidelines and Stage 3 classification according to the IFRS9 accounting standard. Stage 2 exposures have been defined according to the IFRS9 accounting standard and exclude POCI loans. Exposures have been allocated to maturity buckets according to the remaining maturity of the relevant financial instrument. The contractual maturity has been used for term loans whereas the IFRS9 behavioral maturity has been used for revolving loans, open loans and credit cards. A perpetual maturity has been applied for equities (set to 21yrs for weighting calculation purposes). Average maturity has been calculated by weighing the maturity of each exposure by the gross carrying amount of the exposures. [E1.SBM-3] Material impacts, risks and opportunities related to Climate Change and their interaction with strategy and business model Climate related-risks Regarding climate-related risks, the Group performs materiality assessment separately for Transition and Physical Risks. In accordance with the scientific literature and regulatory guidance the Group acknowledges that transition risks are the risks of any negative financial impact on the institution, stemming from the current or prospective impacts of the transition to an environmentally sustainable economy on its counterparties or invested assets. The following transition risk sub-types are considered for the materiality assessment of transition risk: policy and legal, market, reputation and technology. Physical risks are the risks of any negative financial impact on the institution stemming from the current or prospective impacts of the physical effects of environmental factors on its counterparties or invested assets. They are categorized either as acute - if they arise from particular extreme events, or chronic - if they arise from progressive shifts in climate and weather patterns or a gradual loss of ecosystem services. Detailed information on the Group qualitative materiality assessment for transition and physical risk sub-types, is provided under [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities. Resilience analysis Transition Risks As described under [SBM-3] Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model, the Group has performed an assessment to identify sectors sensitive to transition risk, while for those sectors lying within the transition risk sensitive perimeter a risk assessment has been performed under different time horizons. The scale of the transition risk is defined by combining the outcome of the Likelihood (the probability of occurrence within a provided time horizon) and the Impact analysis (the extent to which the impact, if occurred, would affect the business). In order to estimate the likelihood of the transition risks more recent literature scenarios, strategic plans and roadmaps were used, to qualitatively estimate the probability of occurrence of each transition risk driver, as explicitly described under [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities. The analysis covers the Group’s Non-Financial Corporate portfolio. Physical Risks Regarding physical risk, the Group performs an assessment based on IPCC AR5 RCP 8.5 for 2025, 2030 and 2050 horizons. More specifically, as described under data point [SBM-3] Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model, the Bank has laid down a methodology based on sensitivity and exposure analysis to derive vulnerability to physical risk factors. Vulnerability analysis is performed to identify potential significant hazards per subsector covered by the analysis for Business portfolio, as well as across the different geographic regions where real estate properties used as collateral extend. Sensitivity Analysis BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 87 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The aim of the sensitivity analysis is to identify which climate hazards are relevant to the specific economic activity, which includes several types of assets, irrespective of its location. By 2050, most of the sectors are expected to be more resilient due to increased adaptation measures resulting in lower sensitivity compared to 2025 and 2030. Exposure Analysis The aim of the exposure analysis is to identify which hazards are relevant to the asset’s location, irrespective of the asset’s sector or type. Climate model projections can be used to understand how the level of exposure may change in the future. For the assessment of exposure to future conditions, climate projections for the hot-house scenario of IPCC AR5 RCP 8.5 with a horizon of 2025, 2030 and 2050 for the business portfolio on a country level, and horizons of 2030 and 2050 for the RE portfolio on a NUTS3 level, are taken into consideration. More details regarding the exposure analysis and the scenarios utilized, may be found under [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities. ICAAP climate scenarios In the context of the Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP Report) the Group, aligned with International best practices and has developed climate risk-specific methodologies to estimate the impact of transition on credit risk across different time horizons (medium and long term) by making use of leading global macroeconomic and sectoral models. Additional characteristics such as buildings’ energy efficiency, geographic and counterparty level characteristics are also incorporated in the estimation to further account for heterogeneity of impacts inherent in climate risks. These are examined as stand-alone climate scenarios and used under both the Economic and Normative perspective. Where applicable these scenarios are also applied on operational risk and business and strategic risks considering the relevant risk materiality assessment that has been performed. The resilience analysis has been performed by the Bank, with reference date 31.12.2024. For financial materiality purposes, the Group has defined the time horizons in alignment with CSRD guidance. More information is provided under section “Climate-related impacts, risks and opportunities”. The Group, in order to estimate the anticipated financial effect for transition risk, leverages on the outcome of the materiality assessment performed that takes into consideration the factors described under [SBM-3] Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model and [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities. The results of the materiality assessment performed are illustrated in the table below: TABLE 31 ANTICIPATED FINANCIAL EFFECT FOR TRANSITION RISK (CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION) Anticipated Financial Effect Short-Term (2025) Medium-Term (2026-2030) Long-Term (>2030) Climate change mitigation Not material Material Material As shown on the above table, the anticipated financial effect is found to be material on an inherent level basis in the medium- and long-term horizons, considering that the percentage of the Group’s exposures towards sectors sensitive to transition risk over the total Group Assets exceeds the established materiality threshold. In the short-term horizon, the anticipated financial effect is found to be below the established materiality threshold and, therefore, considered not material. Information on materiality thresholds used to characterize transition risk as material can be found under [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities. In addition, the Group, in order to estimate the anticipated financial effect for physical risk, leverages on the outcome of the materiality assessment performed that takes into consideration the vulnerability assessment outcome per sector and region and the Group’s exposures towards sectors and regions with High, Medium and Low vulnerability assessment outcomes. The vulnerability assessment outcome is considered as a proxy for the likelihood of occurrence. The results of the resilience analysis performed are illustrated in the table below: TABLE 32 ANTICIPATED FINANCIAL EFFECT FOR PHYSICAL RISK (CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION) Anticipated Financial Effect Short-Term (2025) Medium-Term (2026-2030) Long-Term (>2030) Climate change adaptation Not material Material Material BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 88 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT As shown on the table above, in the short-term horizon, the anticipated financial effect is found to be below the established materiality threshold and, therefore, it is considered not material. In the medium- and long-term horizons the anticipated financial effect is found to be material on an inherent level basis, considering that for some physical risk factors (e.g., wildfire in case of the regional analysis and floods in case of sectoral analysis) the anticipated occurrence is relatively high. Information on materiality thresholds used to characterize physical risk as material can be found under [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities. Alpha Services and Holdings Group actively participates in the global effort to build a sustainable future for the economy and the planet. In this context, the Bank joined the UN-convened Net Zero Banking Alliance (NZBA), committing to net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. This reflects the Group’s societal responsibility, as a leading financial institution in Greece, to help mitigate climate change and drive the transition to a Net-Zero economy. As part of its commitment to environmental stewardship, the Group focuses on reducing operational emissions, supporting its Retail and Wholesale Customers transition to a low carbon economy, increasing awareness and foster sustainable practices to the entire spectrum of financial and social activity. Further, the Group continues to implement the ESG Workplan, additional details which may be found under [SBM-3] Material impacts, risk and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model. This has resulted in increased portfolio of green loans and investments, supporting projects that contribute to renewable energy and sustainable economy. In line with the SFF, the Group allocates capital to Green and Social investments, with emphasis on the power generation sector, buildings and transportation. Through sustainable financing, the Group aims to support the development of low-carbon infrastructure and accelerate Greece’s transition to an environmentally sustainable and resilient economy. Taking the above into account, along with the lack of any significant risk impacting access to funding in the bond markets, the Group reflects the trust of its counterparties, borrowers, and investors in its ability to adapt its strategy and business model to address climate change over the short, medium, and long term. [E1-2] Policies related to climate change mitigation and adaptation The Group adopts a proactive approach to the management of ESG risks, with particular emphasis placed on risks arising from climate and environmental change, which is already a key component of its Risk Management. More specifically, it aims to: • Support Customers’ decarbonization and the alignment of their portfolio emissions with the objectives set in the Paris Agreement. • Invest in activities dealing with climate change and reduction of environmental effects from the Group’s operation. • Support the development of sustainable solutions for cities and communities. Environmental Risk Management Policy on Legal Entities Lending The Group is committed to sustainable finance, including the effective management of the Environmental dimension of its lending activities. To this direction, during the credit approval process, supplementary to the credit risk assessment, the strict compliance of the principles of an environmentally and socially responsible credit facility are also examined, as those are defined in the “Group Environmental and Social Risk Management Policy on Legal Entities Lending” which is in place since 2016. The main purpose of the E and S Risk Management Policy is to provide the appropriate guidance, roles, perimeter, conditions, credit rules and tools in order to identify, manage, avoid, minimize, offset the risks arising from the business operations of the clients-Legal Entities that may be connected with a damage to the environment, or with any direct threat of such a damage, having as a result a negative impact on the business operations and financial results of the Group as a whole. Key principles and requirements: • Definition of critical sectors that are connected with potential climate and ESG risks. In particular, definition of the Industry specific Exclusion List, i.e., a list of activities that the Group does not finance, and the Climate Policy Relevant Sectors’ List, which is a classification of economic activities in terms of transition risk assessment. • The applicable national and international laws and regulations on climate, environment, society and governance and relevant standards established with the Policy. • The definition and implementation of climate and ESG risks assessment and monitoring procedures including ESG assessment at obligor, transaction and overall level in accordance with the provisions of the relevant Credit Policy Manuals, the due diligence conduction, the guidelines on the performance standards of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), the screening guidelines of the performance standards as well as the national and EU laws and regulations. • Monitor and Control of the ESG Obligor’s/ Project’s performance. • Managing Obligor’s/ Project’s Non-Compliance with the Policy Rules and Standards. • Annual Reporting to stakeholders (EBRD). Among the main responsibilities of the Credit Risk Policy and Control Business Area are to: • Developing and updating the Policy in collaboration with the competent Units, taking into account the regulatory framework, the international best practices and any current developments. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 89 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • Monitoring the implementation of the Policy, conducting credit controls and notification of the Credit Risk Committee which is responsible for its approval, the General Manager – Chief Risk Officer (CRO), the Chief Risk Control Officer and Senior Management on the significant arising issues. • ESG in Loan Origination In 2024, the Group enhanced its credit assessment process according to the "Climate related, Environmental, Social and Governance Risk Management Policy on Group’s Business Lending", “Retail Banking Credit Policy Small Businesses” and “Wholesale Banking Credit Policy”, incorporating additional dimensions of climate related and governance risks. The main amendments concern ESG assessment, which is more holistic and is carried out at obligor, transaction and overall level per transaction. More specifically: • ESG assessment at obligor level is based on specific inter-banking client ESG questionnaires sectoral or cross sectoral,., completed by the Clients. The answered questionnaires are scored via internal rating models and the outcome of the assessment may be Low, Medium or High ESG risk. The Bank has rolled out a bottom-up process, at the obligor level, which is used to evaluate the performance of each obligor around ESG topics and better inform the credit origination processes in place. This process embeds a materiality assessment, through which the Bank concluded environmental and social topics for several economic sectors in its portfolio. Through the questionnaires climate-related information is captured (e.g., emissions data, energy consumption data etc.). • ESG assessment at transaction level concerns the activity for which the client is applying or has received financing based on the information provided during the preparation of the credit request. The outcome of this assessment may be "sustainable" or "non-sustainable” financing. Sustainable financings are further divided into aligned or not aligned with the EU Taxonomy. Νon- sustainable financings are rated and classified as Low, Medium, or High ESG risk. In case the transaction is non-sustainable Medium or High Risk and the request under consideration concerns new specific purpose financing of an investment nature (i.e. project financing), an ESG due diligence (i.e. on-site visit by specialized technical advisors) is carried out and a respective plan of corrective actions is drawn up with a specific implementation schedule on behalf of the customer, if needed. • ESG overall assessment which is a combination of the ESG assessment at obligor and transaction level and is captured per transaction. The outcome of this assessment may be Low, Medium or Increased ESG Impact. The Group has enhanced its due diligence process with respect to the assessment of its Customers’ ESG/climate risk profile, through the collection of relevant information. This effort aims to ensure obligors' compliance with the Group's Environmental and Social (E and S) requirements. The Group aims to finance its counterparties’ green/sustainable transition both in the short-and in the long-term. In this respect the Group collaborates with High-Risk Obligors to develop an action plan outlining a timeframe and appropriate mitigation measures, while in the case of new lending investment nature Medium and High-Risk transactions an on-site visit is conducted by specialists. Also, with the aim to mitigate reputational risks, the Group has designed a robust process that involves identifying and assessing the potential participation of its Obligors in controversial activities. Additionally, as a mitigating action to physical risk impact, the mandatory property insurance securing new financing that is provided to the Bank also includes the risk of flooding. Reputational Risk Policy The Group has developed the Reputational Risk Policy to effectively manage its reputational risk exposures, including reputational risk exposures stemming from ESG factors. In this context, the processes that may arise are presented below: By financing Obligors who are involved in Controversial Activities. This reputational risk exposure is assessed and is taken into account in the Credit Approval process. By initiating new activities, such as Bond Issuing, Investment Banking activities, Public Offerings, Outsourcing Arrangements, new Suppliers, new partners or step-ins, new investors or new services / fees charges to the Bank’s clientele. From existing activities, such as Obligors (regular review), existing Outsourcing Activities (annual review), existing Suppliers, etc. Sustainable Finance Framework The Sustainable Finance Framework (“SFF” or “the framework”) which is in place since 2023 can be defined as a guide that sets out a series of approaches and procedures required for classifying financing as sustainable. Specifically, the framework stipulates the decision and classification process, that the Group implements, to categorize its financial products or services as sustainable (i.e., green, or social). The main purpose of the framework is to enable the identification and categorization of sustainable activities and to lay out the criteria to characterize specific loans as sustainable. The SFF is published on the Group’s website. Remuneration Policy for the Members of the Board of Directors The Group integrates ESG-related considerations into its Remuneration Policy, reflecting its commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainability. Additionally, variable remuneration incorporates criteria linked with climate-related and environmental goals, in alignment with the actions and initiatives that the Group is developing, including: Financial objectives on Sustainable Finance lending volumes C&E Risk management framework implementation Objectives aiming to improvement the availability of client ESG data ESG (including C&E) Risk Training objectives Sustainable Finance Training objectives. The 2024 Remuneration Policy can be accessed on the Group’s website and will be in the 2024 Remuneration report. Exclusion list BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 90 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT As part of the abovementioned policies, the Group applies, maintains, and updates an exclusion list that determines specific activities, which are not allowed to be financed. This is applicable to all business lending obligors across all geographies and industry sectors. The criteria for exclusion span across various environmental and social matters. Specifically, the Group does not finance the following activities: • The production of or trade in any product or activity deemed illegal under host country (i.e. national) laws or regulations or international conventions and agreements or subject to international phase out or bans, such as PCBs, ozone depleting substances, trade in wildlife etc. • Production or trade in weapons and munitions. • Production or trade in alcoholic beverages (excluding beer and wine). • Production or trade in Tobacco, Gambling, Casinos and equivalent enterprises. The funding of these activities is permissible on a combined basis up to 5% of the total loan portfolio. • Production or trade in radioactive materials. This does not apply to the purchase of medical equipment, quality control (measurement) equipment and any equipment where the radioactive source is considered to be trivial and/or adequately shielded in accordance with international practices. • Forced evictions. • New investments in thermal coal mining or coal-fired electricity generation capacity. • Upstream oil exploration - extraction and production. • Upstream oil development projects, except in rare and exceptional circumstances where the proceeds of the project exclusively target the reduction of GHG emissions or flaring from existing producing fields. • Activities involving force-feeding of ducks and geese. • The keeping of animals for the primary purpose of fur production or any activities involving fur production. • The manufacture, placing on the market and use of asbestos fibers and of articles and mixtures containing these fibers added intentionally.

The Group will continue to consider funding for safety improvements of operating plants as well as for radioactive waste management and decommissioning of nuclear facilities. • Any activity involving degradation, conversion or destruction of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites. • Any activity involving significant degradation, conversion or destruction of the sites included in the Natura map. • Health technology activities relevant to human cloning for research or therapeutic purposes and genetically modified organisms/food. • Customers who are involved in violations of human rights, according to the United Nations’ “Universal Declaration of Human Rights”. As of January 1, 2024, the Group has expanded its Exclusion List to encompass additional activities with environmental impact, such as the conversion of natural forests into plantation, the wholesale and retail trade of thermal coal, the construction of new nuclear power plants. Monitoring Process The BoD supervises and approves the ESG objectives and commitments of the abovementioned policies, and it has the oversight of the Group risk management framework. Within this context, the BoD reviews the risk management strategy, delegates authorities to Committees and Senior Management for implementing the risk management strategy, reviews the overall risks assumed under the delegated authorities, provides guidelines, and ratifies the Group’s risk appetite. One of those committees is the Group Sustainability Committee (GSC) which was established in November 2021 to approve and oversee the sustainability strategy and to steer all related initiatives. The Committee takes cognizance of and decides upon Sustainability and ESG-related matters to ensure an internal governance framework that allows the Group to manage ESG risks and consider all sustainability topics. GSC membership includes six General Managers as permanent members and 8 additional members at the General Manager or senior executive level. During 2024, the committee met 8 times, highlighting Management’s commitment to enhancing the Group’s sustainability position. The Group Sustainability Committee’s agenda covered a range of topics, including progress of the Group’s ESG Action Plan, risk identification and materiality assessment of Climate Risk, the SFF operationalization, updated Policy documents, as well as key disclosures and regulatory submissions. The role of the Group ESG Coordinator was also established, to lead sustainability initiatives and steer operational teams on implementation. Implementation of climate-related policies In the context of ESG and Climate Risk Governance, Alpha Services and Holdings Group has implemented a comprehensive structure, addressing relevant decision making and implementation at all levels, from the BoD down to the operational level. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 91 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The BoD approves and oversees the implementation of the Group’s strategic objectives, risk strategy, ESG strategy and internal governance. The overall Organizational Structure for supervising and managing the implementation of the climate-related objectives, strategy, and policies, is presented in [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities and [SBM-2] Interests and views of stakeholders. With reference to the Climate, ESG Risk Policy for Group’s Business Lending, Credit Risk Policy and Control Division is responsible among others of monitoring the implementation of the Policy, conducting credit controls and notification of the Credit Risk Committee, the General Manager – Chief Risk Officer (CRO), the Chief Risk Control Officer and Senior Management on the significant arising issues; Informing third parties/stakeholders (European Bank for Reconstruction and Development - EBRD through the EBRD Office) on issues relevant to the Policy (financing of projects included in the Referral List) (Appendices 2 and 3); Communicating with the competent Group Units to ensure the proper comprehension of the principles and rules set out in this Policy. The Climate, ESG Risk Policy for Group’s Business Lending is established according to the regulatory framework, including but not limited to the Greek and EU legislation, the guidelines of the European Central Bank (ECB), of the European Banking Authority (EBA), as well as other international guidelines and best practices. Stakeholder engagement for policy setting and implementation Development of the Group’s policies has been largely informed and shaped by the climate-related interests of stakeholders across our entire value chain, as these were identified an assessed through direct and indirect engagement with a broad range of stakeholders. Policies with relevance to external stakeholders are publicly available while policies with internal use are available to the Group’s intranet. As previously mentioned, the Group has adopted policies to manage ESG risks, including climate change-related risks. However, policies are not particularly dedicated to a specific area, as they are defined in ESRS (i.e. climate change mitigation/adaptation, energy efficiency, renewable energy deployment).

BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 95 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Decarbonization lever: Reduction of operating footprint Upgrade lighting to LED lighting throughout the network 46 is a planned action that will be completed by 2028 and is expected to achieve carbon reduction of 117 tCO2e per annum. Replacement of the Bank’s fleet with electric and/or plug-in and hybrid vehicles has already achieved 70% fleet replacement and is aiming to achieve replacement of the entire fleet within the next few years, achieving 33% CO2 reduction. Limit operational emissions, enable the supply of low carbon liquids and gases, carbon, capture, utilization and storage technologies has achieved carbon reduction of 74 tCO2e compared against 2022. Decarbonization lever: Transition to renewable energy Procuring renewable electricity for all our buildings and branches has already been achieved at a 100% rate and will continue. Power generation and deployment of renewable energy technologies is an action that is expected be completed by 2030 and has already achieved reduction of 132 kgCO2e / MWh. Decarbonization lever: Decarbonization of the portfolio Providing zero finance to new investments in thermal coal mining, upstream oil exploration or coal-fire is an existing and continuing commitment for Alpha Bank. Alpha Bank has committed to employ green financing included in the Bank's Sustainable Finance Framework and use regular engagement with key sector clients on decarbonization opportunities. This commitment is spanning across different sectors: (a) with regard to power generation, Alpha Bank’s target is 132 kgCO2e/MWh, which represents a 41% reduction in physical intensity from 2022 to 2030, (b) in the oil and gas sector, Alpha Bank is aiming to achieve 26% reduction in absolute financed emissions from 2022 to 2030, (c) in the cement sector, the target is 584 kgCO2e/t Cementitious product, which represents a 15% reduction in physical intensity from 2022 to 2030, (d) in the iron and steel sector, Alpha Bank is not setting a quantitative target for its portfolio; it remains committed to support its clients in the sector to decarbonize and will aim for its emissions intensity to remain below the IEA NZE pathway to 2030. Resources for implementation of actions The ability to implement the actions depends on the availability and allocation of resources. Due to the nature of the Group’s business activities (i.e. related to the financial services and products), the Group does not require any significant operational OpEx and/or capital expenditures CapEx that relate to the implementation of its actions towards the achievement of policy objectives and targets. New requirements are routinely addressed in the broader context of its ongoing operational enhancements and are in any case considered material, determined in line with relevant due diligence standards. Sectoral exposure amounts of the Group disclosed in Pillar 3 are the most significant financial indicators, that relate to the Group material impacts through its portfolio. To implement the decarbonization targets set for key carbon intensive sectors the Bank is leveraging on its ability to regularly measure, monitor and assess its financed emissions and analyze them in comparison to the target baseline and the IEA NZE pathway to 2030. In addition, the Bank continuously engages with key clients on their level of progress and decarbonization commitments. The portfolio decarbonization lever and progress to net zero will also depend on external factors outside the Bank’s control, such as the policy landscape, the scale and pace of technological developments, and economic and geopolitical factors. Moreover, climate data, scenarios and methodologies continue to evolve, which may require changes in our methodology and target-setting approach over time. [E1-4] Targets related to climate change mitigation and adaptation The Group has established a set of KPIs for each of the environmental priority impact areas of its Strategy (Climate), to enable the measurement of the overall performance and make the necessary corrective actions to achieve the strategic commitments and management of its impacts, risks and opportunities related to climate change. One of the top commitments for the Group is to support Customers’ decarbonization and align their portfolio emissions with the Paris Agreement. In addition, the Group commits to accelerating portfolio alignment with the Objectives set in the Paris Agreement, through setting targets for sustainable lending. As part of this commitment the Group has set the target to lend Euro 4.4 billion in sustainable disbursements during 2024-2026. The main focus is in the Power sector (solar, wind, grid upgrading, etc.), buildings (energy efficiency, upgrades, heat insulation, certification) and transportation (electric vehicles, alternative fuels). 46 The average annual electricity reduction per Branch due to the lighting replacement has been estimated to be around 7.070MWh e . The conversion factor for emissions is 0.4996 tCO 2eq /MWh e . The estimated value corresponds to 33 Branches of Alpha Bank S.A.

However, the Bank is a member of NZBA and therefore is currently in the process of developing targets regarding Scope 1,2 for the mid-term (2026-2030) and long-term time horizon (>2030). Additionally, the Bank has set though GHG emission reduction targets for 2025 as disclosed in the table below: BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 97 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT TABLE 37 GHG EMISSION REDUCTION TARGETS RELATED TO OWN OPERATIONS Target description Target level Absolute / Relative Baseline value Baseline Year Target Year Scope Progress in 2024 KPIs Reduction of Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 20% until 2025, comparing to 2022 N/A Absolute 1,473 2022 2025 Own operations Alpha Bank S.A.(Greece) 1,776 Scope 1 GHG Emissions (tn CO2eq.)

More specifically, with reference to the selected, material-relevant NZBA carbon-intensive sectors the Group has deployed science-based International Energy Agency Net Zero Emissions by 2050 (IEA NZE) scenario as its benchmark pathway. Worth mentioning that the baseline measurement relied on the GHG emissions of its borrowers or investee companies and followed the Global Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Accounting and Reporting Standard for the Financial Industry developed by the PCAF. It is noted that the GHG emission targets have not been externally assured. As highlighted in [SBM-2] Interests and views of stakeholders, multiple stakeholder input has been taken into consideration in shaping each of Targets set by the Group. In response to these expectations, Alpha Services and Holdings Group has taken concrete steps to deliver on its climate ambitions. As the first Greek bank to join the UN-convened Net-Zero Banking Alliance (NZBA), it is committed to achieving net-zero emissions across the portfolios by 2050. It is noted that there are no changes in targets and corresponding metrics to report. Specific target in relation to the management of risks The Group has already incorporated in its Risk Appetite Framework (RAF) a set of quantitative indicators and qualitative commitments regarding climate risks. In terms of quantitative indicators, the Group has defined several C&E indicators designed to improve the sustainability of the portfolio and mitigate potential exposure to risk and are incorporated in Risk Appetite Framework as supporting elements. Additionally, limits have been established in part of the existing C&E indicators. The indicators cover the area of business planning and green financing, collateral vulnerability to physical and transition risk, financial activity vulnerability to physical risk and sustainable investing. In 2024, the Group updated its Risk Inventory to provide a comprehensive overview of the enhancements and progress achieved in climate-related risks in the Bank's Risk Registry, by incorporating additional limits. More specifically, the following Key Risk indicators with thresholds were introduced into the Risk Appetite Framework (‘RAF’), taking into consideration the materiality assessment outcome and its target setting exercise and commitments in specific sectors.

Change in % of exposure with 1.5ºC aligned climate targets for each priority sector Total reduction target for Scope 3 emissions has not been disclosed as a cumulative figure, as financed emission targets have only been set for the specific four sectors listed on Table 37. To define the first wave of sector portfolio decarbonization targets the Bank performed a comprehensive measurement of its financed emissions covering investment and lending portfolios, across all financed sectors. The measurement relied on the GHG emissions of our borrowers or investee companies and followed the Global Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Accounting and Reporting Standard for the Financial Industry developed by the PCAF. Asset classes covered included on-balance sheet exposures in listed and unlisted equity, corporate bonds, sovereign bonds, corporate loans, commercial real estate (CRE), residential real estate (RRE), motor vehicle loans and project finance. SMEs were excluded from the initial perimeter for target setting. The final decision on sector prioritization considered each sector’s materiality based on the financed emissions measurement, outstanding exposure, sectoral contribution to Greece’s emissions, the availability of credible sectoral target-setting guidance, data quality and availability, as well as the market practice. The GHG emission reduction targets represent gross targets, meaning that GHG removals, carbon credits or avoided emissions are not taken into account as a means of achieving the GHG emission reduction targets. Due to the level of data availability, GHG emission in 2022 were set as baseline, regarding the Bank’s portfolio related emissions. Another reason was that the Bank improved in 2022 the coverage and data quality of its financed emissions. The Group employs the widely used, science-based IEA NZE 2050 scenario as its benchmark pathway. The IEA NZE 2050 charts a pathway for the global energy sector to reach net zero CO2 emissions by 2050, consistent with holding the increase in the global average temperature to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. The Group uses the 2023 vintage of the IEA NZE 2050 scenario, which reflects the latest developments in technologies, markets, policies and investment vis-à-vis the net zero transition. Additional information on the climate analysis is provided in [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities. [E1-5] Energy consumption and mix The Group recognizes that energy consumption for own operations is generating emissions that are directly contributing to climate change, and therefore need to be mitigated. It is also recognized that achieving the net zero target means that the Group will need to minimize operational emissions and treat any residual emissions through carbon removals or other techniques. In 2023 Alpha Bank started developing the Energy Management System according to the ISO 50001:2018 requirements, while the certification process was completed in 2024. The Group is using the following consumption metrics to track and assess effectiveness towards reducing operational emissions. Table 39 Energy Consumption and mix Energy consumption and mix 2024 (1) Fuel consumption from coal and coal products (MWh) 0 (2) Fuel consumption from crude oil and petroleum products (MWh) 5,442 (3) Fuel consumption from natural gas (MWh) 5,448 (4) Fuel consumption from other fossil sources (MWh) 2.78 (5) Consumption of purchased or acquired electricity, heat, steam, and cooling from fossil sources (MWh) 11,328 (6) Total fossil energy consumption (MWh) (calculated as the sum of lines 1 to 5) 22,220 Share of fossil sources in total energy consumption (%) 33.0% (7) Consumption from nuclear sources (MWh) 2,194 Share of consumption from nuclear sources in total energy consumption (%) 3.3% (8) Fuel consumption from renewable sources, including biomass (also comprising industrial and municipal waste of biologic origin, biogas, renewable hydrogen, etc.) (MWh) 4 (9) Consumption of purchased or acquired electricity, heat, steam, and cooling from renewable sources (MWh) 42,903 (10) The consumption of self-generated non-fuel renewable energy (MWh) - (11) Total renewable energy consumption (MWh) (calculated as the sum of lines 8 to 10) 42,907 Share of renewable sources in total energy consumption (%) 63.7% Total energy consumption (MWh) (calculated as the sum of lines 6, 7 and 11) 67,321 Group (Alpha Bank) installed a pilot, small scale flat roof PV in one Branch, in Athens, Greece. The new system was installed in 2024 and is expected to be connected to the grid in early 2025. The system has a nominal power of approximately 10kWp, while it is expected to produce BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 99 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT annual more than 14.5MWh. The Group will identify the possibility to increase the installed power of PV systems, focusing on reducing the final emissions balance and the operational cost. Energy related calculations and methodologies Almost all data collected for Alpha Services and Holdings Group refer to the actual period January to September/October 2024. Consumption for 12-month period was derived for all data as following : - The annual electricity consumption was derived from the actual bills received. For the period that no actual was available, data from previous corresponding period were used. - For Alpha Bank London Ltd, primary data was found for the entire building and it is divided by 5 because Alpha Bank London Ltd occupies 1 of the 5 building floors. Alpha Bank S.A. has annual contract for purchasing electricity for its own operating premises (e.g. Branches, office buildings, warehouses, ATMs) and hence has purchased Guarantees of Origin for the total electricity consumption. This affects also subsidiaries operating to these premises – buildings. Energy intensity The energy intensity associated with activities in high climate impact sectors is 0.00164 MWh/Euro net revenue. The high climate impact sector used to calculate the intensity figure above is L68 (Real Estate activities). The cumulative energy consumption from the aforementioned entities is 29,939 MWh. The net revenue associated with real estate operations is Euro 18.3 million and is included in the Group’s financial statements by referring to the following lines: Interest and similar income, Fee and commission income, Dividend income, Gains less losses on derecognition of financial assets measured at amortized cost, Gains less losses on financial transactions, Other income. For the total Group net revenue please refer to [E1-6] Table 45. The above metrics have not been validated by an external body. [E1-6] Gross Scopes 1, 2, 3 and Total GHG emissions The measurement, continuous monitoring, and effective reporting of the carbon emissions is a key priority for the Group and constitute a critical and objective means for assessing its performance and effectiveness against its climate commitments. By the time of reporting, 2024 Gross Scopes 1, 2, 3 and Total GHG emissions have not been validated by an external body.

It is noted that the figure for financed emissions in 2024, was calculated taking into account the restated data of an obligor with a significantly large carbon footprint, that affected in 2023 the calculation of financed emissions. The Group acknowledges that with the increase in demands for full carbon footprint measurements from its Customers in the coming years, the absolute values (absolute values in tnCO2e) of financed emissions may be materially affected in the coming years as well. GHG emissions calculation and methodologies used There are no significant changes compared to the previous year regarding the definition of what is considered upstream and downstream value chain. However, changes in the reported Scope 1, 2 GHG emissions compared to previous year (compared to “2023 Sustainability Report”, are attributed to the fact that certain subsidiaries were sold in 2024 (please refer to the Section: Assets Held for sale of the Financial Statements). Scope 1, 2 GHG emissions calculation and methodologies used The GHG emissions of 2024 have been estimated with the following assumptions: • Electricity consumptions, period: 1 calendar year, as given from bills issued from Feb 2024 – Jan 2025. • Water consumption: 1 calendar year, as given from bills issued from Nov 2023 – Oct 2024. • Conversion coefficients (kWh to tCO 2eq ): Both for location and market-based calculation the values of 2023 were used. • Refrigerants: emissions are attributed to the refrigerants’ losses of 2023. Scope 3 GHG emissions calculation and methodologies used Two specific approaches were used to calculate direct and indirect emissions: i) Activity-Data Based Approach: Emissions were calculated using the activity data related to the service or product (e.g. quantities, transport work, energy consumption), and ii) Spend-Based Approach: Emissions were derived from the economic value of the service or product, correlating with the costs incurred by the entity. This uses Input-Output tables for (EU-27), allocating national GHG emissions to economic sectors based on economic flows. iii) List of GHG emissions included in the inventory and exclusions and reporting boundaries The Group is currently at advanced state of a more detailed measurement of its Scope 3 financed emissions across asset classes and sectors, following the Global Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Accounting and Reporting Standard for the Financial Industry developed by the PCAF. The PCAF builds upon the GHG protocol guidance to calculate Scope 3, category 15 (see Table 15 Scope 3 Categories), emissions to provide asset class specific calculation approaches with guidance on financial or operational control approaches, attribution factors, emissions factors and data sourcing hierarchies. For the following categories of Scope 3, an explanation of calculation methods for estimating the GHG emissions is provided: BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 101 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Category 1: Purchased goods and services. The methodology used for the emissions calculation is based on spend-based method. Purchased goods include the following sub-categories: furniture, paper, toner, water and electronic equipment, and others. Τhe upstream emissions in this case are calculated by multiplying the activity data (quantities and/or expenditures) by emission factors from various sources such as: a) Environmentally- Extended Input Output (EEIO) models that provide sector-level data on emissions per turnover for Greece. Total emissions from services are estimated on the basis of procurement costs per type of service and emission factors derived from Environmentally-Extended Input Output (EEIO) models for Greece. Category 2: Capital goods. This category is not relevant for the Group. In 2024, the Group did not purchase significant capital goods (such as buildings or machinery) which could be incorporated into this category of Scope 3 emissions. The emissions associated with the purchase of other products, goods and services, which could be classified under this category, have been included under Category 1 Purchased goods and services. Category 3: Fuel-and-energy-related activities (not included in Scope 1 or 2). The methodology used for the emissions calculation is based on the average-data method. This category of scope 3 emissions comprises the GHG emissions associated with: (i) the extraction, production, and transportation of fuels consumed by the reporting Group; (ii) the extraction, production, and transportation of fuels consumed in the generation of electricity consumed by the reporting Group; and (iii) the transmission and distribution losses corresponding to the electricity consumed by the reporting Group. The upstream emissions of the fuels consumed in the reporting Group (subcategory i) are calculated by multiplying the activity data (quantities of fuel) with the emission factors provided DEFRA 2023 (WTT fuels). The upstream emissions of the fuels consumed for generating the electricity consumed by the reporting Alpha Bank S.A. (subcategory ii) are estimated as follows: Given that a significant part of the electricity consumed is covered by guarantees of origin, the upstream emissions of this part of electricity was estimated by multiplying the corresponding electricity consumption with the European average wind farm generation factor according to the study "CoM Default Emission Factors for the Member States of the European Union" (2017). For the subcategory "TD losses", which corresponds to emissions from losses in the electricity transmission and distribution network, the emission factor used was based on data from Carbon Footprint Ltd. For the subcategory “WTT losses” that corresponds to electricity production, the emission factor used was based on data from Carbon Footprint Ltd. It is noted that for companies which have an active contract with an electricity provider, taking provision for providing Gurantees of Origins from renewable energy sources, “WTT losses” has not been calculated. Fuels and electricity quantities used to calculate emissions are provided through bills or invoices. Category 4: Upstream transportation and distribution. The methodology used for the emissions calculation is based on spend-based method. This category includes emissions from transportation services provided from companies distributing materials to Group’s warehouses, as well as companies collecting and transporting materials and equipment between the various infrastructures of the Bank (e.g., due to the merge of units and branches). Relevant emissions are estimated based on the amount of money spent for this type of transportation activities and appropriate EEIO emission factors for land transport services sector. Expenses used to calculate emissions are provided through invoices issued by each transportation Alpha Bank S.A. Category 5: Waste generated in operations. The methodology used for the emissions calculation is based on spend-based method and average-data method. Scope 3 emissions from waste generated in operations include solid wastes produced by Employees and sent to landfill, as well as recycled materials. Activity data for solid wastes produced in Group’s premises are calculated based on specific assumptions (e.g. by using the indicator of solid wastes produced per employee in the tertiary sector provided by Eurostat and taking into account the number of Employees who were exempted from teleworking. Furthermore, for the recycled materials the expenses made for their transportation have been used as activity data, which has been derived from invoices. DEFRA emission factors per type of material wasted and treated are also used to calculate a weighted emission factor for solid wastes on the basis of a typical composition of the produced mixture (based on an EPA’s study). Category 6: Business Travel. The methodology used for the emissions calculation is based on actual data. Scope 3 emissions are derived from business travel comprises air, sea, and land transportation of Employees for business-related activities, as well as accommodation in hotels during these trips. All relevant information is provided by the collaborating travel agencies. Defra 2023 emission factors have been applied. Category 7: Employee commuting. The methodology used for the emissions calculation is based on the average-data method. Expert judgment taking into account the experience of other big companies in Greece is used to reflect the commuting habits of Employees concerning typical travel modes, the type of fuel used, annual working days for the reference year, as well as commuting distances to work per employee. Within this context, a total transport work by travel mode on an annual basis is calculated and multiplied by DEFRA’s conversion factors for all means of transport except for public means where national emission factors have been applied, also taking into account the avoided transport work due to the implementation of teleworking among the Employees of the Group. Category 8: Upstream leased assets. This category does not apply to Alpha Bank because emissions from the operation of leased office buildings are included under scopes 1 and 2. Category 9: Downstream transportation and distribution. GHG emissions from this category are considered relevant to the Bank. However, according to the data obtained, Group’s GHG emissions from this category are relevant low compared to other categories. Category 10: Processing of sold products. The Group, as a financial service provider, does not sell products, only services that do not need processing. As a result, emissions in this category are not relevant. Category 11: Use of sold products. THe Group offers only services to its clients and does not sell products that lead to emissions when used. Since we are a service, the use of our sold products does not have an impact and does not represent position in our carbon footprint. Category 12: End of life treatment of sold products. The Group offers only services to its clients and does not sell products that lead to emissions when disposed. Since we are a service, the end-of- life treatment of sold products does not represent a significant position in our carbon footprint. Category 13: Downstream leased assets. GHG emissions from this category are considered relevant to the Group. Alpha Leasing S.A. has a significant amount of emissions in this category due to its operation. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 102 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Category 14: Franchises. This category is not relevant as the Group has no Franchises. Category 15: Investments (Financed Emissions) In order to align its portfolio with the Paris Agreement climate objectives, the Group is carrying out a full measurement of its financed emissions, covering investment and lending products of its corporate portfolio across all the sectors it finances, based on the GHG emissions of its borrowers or investee companies. To measure its financed emissions, the Bank follows the Global Greenhouse Gas Accounting and Reporting Standard for the Financial Industry developed by the PCAF (version Nov. 2021). PCAF builds upon the GHG Protocol Corporate Value Chain (Scope 3) emissions – Investments (Category 15), to provide asset class specific calculation approaches. In this context, the asset class coverage includes Listed and Unlisted Equity, Corporate Bonds, Corporate Loans, Commercial Real Estate (CRE) and Project Finance. The Group is in the process to complete the exercise, including all asset classes (Mortgages, etc.,). Measuring FEs of all asset classes will be able to provide the weighted data quality score. For the purposes of the financed emissions measurement, the counterparty NACE sector allocation was identified and GHG financed emissions calculated for Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 emissions (in tons of CO2 equivalent), depending on availability of information. Financed emissions have been measured by using primary data (e.g., reported emissions) for the 32.9% of the portfolio (in terms of outstanding amount), whereas for the remainder of the portfolio (i.e., 67.1%), financed emissions have been estimated by using proxy data (e.g., EEIO). To the extent GHG emissions, activity or financial data were not available on behalf of the counterparties for 2023, the measurement for the financed emissions was based on data for 2022. Bank exposure to each counterparty corresponded to end of 2023 balances. Future disclosure of emissions by Customers will improve data quality but may also cause changes in financed emissions figures.

Guided by the European Banking Authority (EBA) guidelines and the European Central Bank (ECB) expectations, the organization integrates biodiversity considerations into its sustainability framework. Although specific feedback from shareholders regarding biodiversity considerations has not yet been received, the organization’s efforts in this area are primarily driven by legal and regulatory frameworks, reflecting its commitment to compliance and broader responsibility to environmental stewardship. In addition, for the purposes of the Double Materiality Analysis the Group leveraged its existing stakeholder engagement output (i.e. existing employee surveys, investor and client and market feedback, etc.) to identify potentially additional priority topics coming from its stakeholders. For further information around the Group’s overall stakeholder engagement process and involvement please refer to [SBM-2] Interests and views of stakeholders. [E4.SBM-3] Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model The Bank has not identified any actual and potential impacts on biodiversity and ecosystems either on their own operational sites or sites under their operational control, nor they have specified any activities negatively affecting biodiversity sensitive areas and affect threatened species. Specifically, there are no material negative impacts regarding land degradation, desertification or soil sealing and their portfolios of investment activities have all the required environmental terms and conditions. However, biodiversity has been defined as material only in relation to the Bank’s downstream value chain and the overall portfolio of investments. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 104 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT [E4-2] Policies related to biodiversity and ecosystems Key Environmental and Biodiversity Policies The Group adopts a proactive approach to the management of ESG risks, with particular emphasis placed on risks arising from climate and environmental change, which is already a key component of its Risk Management. Thus, it has set a series of key policies to manage material sustainability matters such as the Environmental Risk Management Policy on Legal Entities Lending and the ESG in Loan Origination. For further details about these policies as well as the monitoring process please refer to [E1-2] Policies related to climate change mitigation and adaptation. To further mitigate its impact on biodiversity, the Group maintains an exclusion list to determine which activities are prohibited from being financed. Specifically, the Bank prohibits financing towards: • Activities prohibited by host country legislation or international conventions relating to the protection of biodiversity resources or cultural heritage. • Drift net fishing in the marine environment using nets in excess of 2.5 km in length. • Conversion of natural forests into plantation. • Wholesale and retail trade of thermal coal. • Any activity involving significant degradation, conversion or destruction of the sites included in the Natura map As of January 1, 2024, the Group has expanded its Exclusion List to encompass additional activities with environmental impact, such as the conversion of natural forests into plantation. The Group’s exclusion policy to allocate zero financing to targeted activities harming species diversity, habitats and waterbodies pertains to the downstream scope of its value chain. The established commitments apply to all the Group’s operations, in every country where it operates. Implementation of biodiversity-related policies In the context of ESG and Climate Risk Governance, Alpha Services and Holdings Group has implemented a comprehensive structure, addressing relevant decision making and implementation at all levels. Further to that in E1 includes all third-party standards or initiatives the Group commits to regarding the policy implementation. More details for this structure please refer to [E1-2] Policies related to climate change mitigation and adaptation. Stakeholder engagement for policy setting and implementation Stakeholders' engagement plays an important role in introducing new policies. Thus, the feedback from Investors the Sustainable lending strategy, Sustainable Finance Framework, the Group introduced in order to reduce Bank’s overall environmental impact. In response to Regulators’ expectations, the Group implemented Climate Risk Management, ESG criteria in all lending and investment decisions, and Risk and Capital Strategy incorporating ESG criteria. Customer feedback also influenced the development of the Sustainable Finance Framework, Transition plans for clients, and ESG-related products and services. Therefore, there are relevant policies that are available on the ESG and Sustainability section of the Alpha Services and Holdings website in both Greek and English languages to address the different stakeholder groups: • Environmental Management System • Sustainable Finance Framework and External Review These policies are actively shared with affected stakeholders through direct communications and employee ESG awareness programs. Specifically, all Employees have access to the policies through ABiD on Intranet – internal Services and Holdings website. For stakeholders implementing policies, including investors, the Groupensures access through regular updates, sustainability reporting, and dedicated investor engagements. These methods include participation in conferences, briefings, and the publication of detailed frameworks, such as the SFF and the Climate-Related, Environmental, Social, and Governance Risk Management Policy, which outline the bank's commitments and operational integration of ESG standards. Relation of Policies with Biodiversity and Ecosystems matters The Group acknowledges that its current biodiversity and ecosystems-related policies are still under development to fully address the specific subject matters outlined in the DP. However, it is committed to progressively integrating these aspects into its operational and financing frameworks. Below is the current status and alignment of policies with the subject matters. a) Contribution to direct impact drivers on biodiversity loss: i. Climate Change: The Group’s policies address climate change indirectly through its focus on decarbonization and support for renewable energy and energy-efficient projects, but these measures do not currently target biodiversity impacts directly. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 105 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT ii. Land-Use Change: While land-use assessments are part of the ESG risk review for projects, the policies do not comprehensively address land artificialization, freshwater-use change, or sea-use change impacts. These gaps are recognized and planned for future iterations of the policies. iii. Direct Exploitation: The Group’s exclusion list explicitly prohibits financing activities such as deforestation and overfishing, but further integration of biodiversity-specific exploitation metrics into the due diligence process is still under development. iv. Invasive Alien Species: This is not explicitly addressed in current policies but could be included in future updates as part of the Group’s evolving biodiversity strategy. v. Pollution: Policies currently address pollution risks, particularly in industrial projects, through ESG due diligence, but direct links to biodiversity impacts are not yet systematically incorporated. b) Impacts on the State of Species: The Group does not currently have detailed mechanisms to assess impacts on species population sizes or extinction risks. Biodiversity considerations are indirectly addressed by excluding funding for activities in protected areas, but further development of species-specific impact monitoring is required. c) Impacts on the Extent and Condition of Ecosystems: Ecosystem impacts, including land degradation and soil sealing, are partially addressed through ESG risk reviews and exclusion of certain activities. However, a comprehensive ecosystem health monitoring framework is not yet in place. d) Impacts and Dependencies on Ecosystem Services: Dependencies on ecosystem services, such as carbon sequestration and water provision, are considered in project evaluations where relevant, but these are not yet systematically linked to biodiversity impacts across the portfolio. The Group applies, maintains and updates the exclusion list to determine specific activities, which are not allowed to be financed. The criteria for exclusion span across various environmental and social matters. The Group's exclusion list is in compliance with the EBRD Environmental and Social Exclusion List as well as with the EBRD Referral List. The exclusion list is part of the Climate related, Environmental, Social and Governance Risk Management Policy on Group’s Business Lending which incorporates activities related to biodiversity and ecosystems. Please refer to [E4-2] Policies related to biodiversity and ecosystems for more information on the exclusion list. In addition, following the ESG risk categorization at the obligor/project/lending transaction level and depending on the outcome (described in detail in the relevant Credit Policy Manuals), an ESG Due Diligence is carried out based on specific evaluation criteria, defined as “Performance Standards”, which reflect those of EBRD. One of the ESG evaluation criteria describes potential risks and impacts on biodiversity conservation and sustainable management of living natural resources. All obligors/projects of the Group are required to manage the ESG performance stemming from their business activity to this domain. When the outcome of the ESG assessment is non-sustainable Medium or High Risk financing and the request under consideration concerns a dedicated purpose investment nature new financing e.g. project finance (infrastructure, energy, etc.), construction / expansion / purchase of real estate including industrial premises, hotel and tourism units, a due diligence is carried out on the basis of which, if required, a corrective action plan is compiled which should be implemented in a specific timeframe by the client. In addition to all the policies described above, the Group has established an Environmental Management Policy since April 2019 that sets the framework for the Group’s Environmental Management, aiming at improving its environmental performance, its compliance with the institutional and regulatory framework on environmental issues and ensuring the effective use of natural resources. According to the Policy, an Environmental Management System (EMS)- certified with ISO14001- is developed according to international standards, setting the framework for the monitoring, management and improvement of the environmental impact of its activities. The EMS monitors the Bank's environmental performance related to its operations and assesses financed projects on the basis of environmental and social risks. Alpha Bank, through its Environmental Management System (EMS), indirectly addresses the impacts related to biodiversity and ecosystems, recognizing their importance for its business operation and model. Although there is no specific reference on biodiversity and ecosystems as separate entities, the EMS incorporates procedures for assessing and managing environmental and social risks that touch upon natural systems and the challenges they face. Material Dependencies: The Group recognizes its dependence on material resources derived from ecosystems. Through the EMS, it identifies and assesses the environmental aspects of its activities that interact with natural ecosystems, such as energy and water use, emissions, and resource management. The emphasis on efficient resource use directly correlates the recognition that the sustainability of business activities is inextricably linked to the health of natural systems. Physical Risks: The EMS includes the assessment of environmental impacts and risks arising from extreme weather events or other natural disasters (physical risks). The Group examines the impact of these phenomena on its operations and business model and takes measures to minimize them. Transition Risks: By integrating non-financial criteria into its credit assessments, the Groupproactively addresses the risks of transitioning to a more sustainable economy. By evaluating financed projects based on environmental and social standards, the Group reduces its exposure to businesses or sectors that may be negatively affected by regulatory changes, reputational issues, or economic challenges related to biodiversity loss or ecosystem degradation. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 106 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Opportunities: The Group recognizes the opportunities arising from promoting sustainability. It encourages green financing and offers products that help its Customers improve their environmental performance. In this way, The Group seeks to seeks to contribute to the growth of sustainable investments and services, while also contributing to ecosystem protection. Sustainable Land and Agriculture Practices In agriculture involving animals, Group prohibits financing activities such as force-feeding ducks and geese, fur factory farming, and any other activities deemed illegal under national or international laws or subject to phase-out bans. To mitigate specific sectoral risks—such as managed grazing, prevention of overgrazing, large-scale livestock farming, wastewater management, waste management, air emissions, animal feed, disease control, responsible use of antibiotics, and ensuring animal welfare—the Group conducts Environmental and Social risk due diligence through qualified personnel in accordance with required legislation. As of December 2024, agriculture represents only a small portion of the Group’s current loan portfolio. Sustainable Sea and Ocean Practices Furthermore, the Group prohibits financing drift net fishing activities using nets longer than 2.5 km to mitigate risks in fisheries and aquaculture. To address other sector-specific risks—including fish types, bycatch, organic waste management, petroleum management, wastewater and effluents, air emissions, solid waste management, plant-based feeds from sustainable agriculture, cultivation of native species in bag nets or closed-wall sea-pens, cultivation of non-native species in land-based tanks, risk prevention for local wild populations, stocking densities to minimize disease outbreaks, net loss prevention in fish protein yield, water management, discharges and effluents, soil erosion and sedimentation, and the use of fertilizers and chemicals—the Bank conducts Environmental and Social due diligence through technically qualified personnel in accordance with required legislation. Deforestation Practices Finally, to prevent environmental and social risks associated with forestry projects, the Group Credit Policy prohibits financing commercial logging operations in primary tropical moist forests, and the production or trade of wood or other forestry products unless sourced from sustainably managed forests. To address sector-specific risks such as water management, responsible use of fertilizers and pesticides, alternatives to chemical inputs, hazardous materials management, soil erosion, fire management, reforestation with native species, and promoting multi-age and multi- species forests over monocultures, the Group conducts environmental and social risk due diligence through qualified personnel in accordance with required legislation. As of December 2024, forestry constitutes only a small portion of it’s loan portfolio. [E4-3] Actions and resources related to biodiversity and ecosystems Biodiversity and Ecosystem related Actions To remain compliant with its exclusion policy, the Group retains a commitment to allocate zero finance to targeted activities harming species’ diversity, habitats and waterbodies. This action was achieved for the reporting year as no new financing volumes were allocated to any exclusionary categories. This expects to remain unchanged as the Bank commits to its target in the future and is expected to continue over the short-, medium, and long-term horizons. The Group’s aim of zero financing towards targeted activities harming species diversity, habitats and waterbodies, pertains to its downstream value chain. The established commitment applies to all Group’s operations, in every country where it operates and affects individuals, corporates and SMEs. This commitment took effect in FY23 and the target has been achieved for FY23 and FY24. Additionally, the implementation of this commitment contributes directly to Group’sbroader sustainability objectives, particularly aligning with SDG 15 “Life on Land.” It supports the Group’s strategy to minimize its environmental footprint and safeguard biodiversity by financing only those activities that meet strict environmental criteria as outlined in its Climate-Related and ESG Risk Management policies. Regarding geographies and stakeholder groups, this commitment applies comprehensively across all countries of operation, primarily affecting individuals, SMEs, and corporates in the Group’s downstream value chain. While the commitment has been implemented globally, a significant focus remains on the Greek market, given the regional impact of activities on local biodiversity and ecosystems. Further to that, starting in 2021 and continuing through 2026, the Bank has also set an additional action to collaborate with Reforest Action and subsequent promotion of impact investing to private banking Customers. Since 2021 as part of the 'Reforest Action' initiative, more than 60,786 trees have been financed for planting and specifically in 2024, nearly 4,648 trees have been financed for planting. The reforestation projects have been implemented in critical areas across Greece, including the Arona forest in Katerini, Thessaloniki forest, Pierian Mountains BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 107 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT forest, and Kastanolongos forest in Southern Evia. This effort has resulted in the storage of 697.2 thousand tons of CO2 and the creation of 14,052 natural shelters for wild animals according to the certificates the Group has received for the completion of each initiative. Regarding the operational and upstream value chain segments, the Group has not identified any material impacts related to biodiversity and ecosystems. The Group confirms that its own operational model, primarily centered on financial services, does not inherently or directly generate issues requiring remediation actions. However, in cases where harm has occurred due to external circumstances, such as natural disasters, Alpha Services and Holdings Group has historically supported affected communities through financial assistance and social programs. In response to the floods in Thessaly in 2023, Alpha Bank immediately implemented a comprehensive support plan for affected individuals and businesses. This included the suspension of loan repayments for impacted Customers, providing immediate financial relief to those who faced significant losses. Additionally, the Group allocated funds to support the restoration of essential infrastructure and collaborated with local authorities to address urgent community needs. These efforts directly contributed to the recovery of thousands of individuals and businesses in the region. Similarly, during the wildfires that struck the island of Rhodes in 2023, the Group distributed financial aid to local residents and businesses to help address urgent needs, such as rebuilding damaged properties and restoring livelihoods. Moreover, the Group supplied essential equipment and resources to emergency responders and participated in reforestation efforts to mitigate the long-term environmental and biodiversity impact of the fires. As such, while the nature of the Group’s services minimizes direct instances of material harm necessitating remedy, its frameworks and initiatives ensure that any identified impacts are effectively addressed in alignment with best practices and stakeholder expectations. Resources for implementation of actions It is important to mention that for the implementation of Bank’s action plan does not require significant operational expenditures (OpEx) and/or capital expenditures (CapEx). Thus, the Bank has not set any significant current or future financial and other resources allocated to the implementation of the action plan. Worth noting that no biodiversity offsets have been used in the actions. [E4-4] Targets related to biodiversity and ecosystems The Alpha Services and Holdings Group has identified through its Materiality Analysis the potential negative impacts on biodiversity and ecosystems through its financial products/services. In order to promote the local habitats and species the Group is committed and has set the target to zero financing to targeted activities harming species diversity, habitats and waterbodies. This represents an ongoing target that serves to mitigate any material impacts the Group has on biodiversity and ecosystems through the provision of its financial products and services. The Group ensures it will not finance transactions that impose environmental or social threat, through the incorporation of the “Climate related, Environmental, Social and Governance Risk Management Policy on Group’s Business Lending” in the existing Credit Risk Management Framework and the Group’s Credit Policy. This target was implemented in 2023, is absolute, with no permissible thresholds, and continues to be in effect from fiscal year 2023 onwards. Since the target took effect in FY23, it has been achieved in the fiscal years since as no new financing volumes have been allocated to such activities. Progress and compliance are tracked through regular monitoring of financing activities and the established credit risk management processes, along with the exclusion of harmful activities as per the Group’s expanded Exclusion List. The Group ’s target relating to biodiversity and ecosystems serves to mitigate its downstream material impacts and is applicable everywhere (i.e., in each country) the Group has its operations. The initial focus for the Group’s sustainable lending targets is its largest entity, Alpha Bank S.A., with the targets having been expanded across the Group for 2024. Moreover, this commitment aligns with the Group’s broader sustainability objectives under the SSF, which prioritizes financing that supports renewable energy, energy efficiency, and biodiversity preservation while systematically excluding harmful environmental practices. These actions reflect the Group’s alignment with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and its commitment as a member of the Net Zero Banking Alliance to mitigate biodiversity loss and achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. The Group's commitment to maintaining zero financing is an ongoing objective, evaluated annually. Consequently, the baseline value is anticipated to consistently remain at zero each year. Target setting process BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 108 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The Group set its sustainable lending targets for the purpose of aligning its portfolio with the Paris Agreement objectives and is in the process to develop more targets on material sustainability matters by actively leveraging its Materiality Analysis and SFF to identify areas of priority and impact. The finalization will consider both local and international sustainability contexts. To ensure the robustness of its existing target of Zero financing, Alpha Services and Holdings utilizes methodologies and frameworks provided by the organizations and initiatives it participates in or supports. As a signatory of the Net-Zero Banking Alliance (NZBA), the Group is aligning its long-term objectives with the net-zero pathways, using science-based scenarios to measure and track emissions reductions. Through the UN Principles for Responsible Banking (PRB), the Group has integrated the SDGs and Paris Agreement objectives into its business model. Further, the Group adheres to the Green Bond Principles (2021) and Green Loan Principles (2021) to classify and track sustainable financing activities, ensuring that these meet globally recognized sustainability standards. As part of its membership in the UN Environment Program Finance Initiative (UNEP FI), the Group applies best practices to assess risks and opportunities in its financing activities, particularly related to climate and biodiversity impacts. To enhance transparency and align with international policy goals, the Group incorporates guidance from the TCFD in its reporting and integrates climate-related risks into its decision-making processes. Furthermore, through its participation in the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), the Group ensures its sustainability targets address broader social and environmental considerations. The targets under development also align with Greece’s Recovery and Resilience Plan and other relevant EU and national policies. The methodologies incorporate both quantitative metrics (e.g., emissions reductions, biodiversity impacts) and qualitative indicators (e.g., governance improvements), ensuring progress is measurable, traceable, and aligned with the Bank's commitment to sustainable development. While more targets are included, Alpha Bank remains committed to maintaining transparency through regular updates in its Sustainability Report and other disclosures. Stakeholder Involvement in Target Setting Targets engagement to diverse stakeholders, including regulators, Customers, and community representatives takes place through structured dialogue and collaborative platforms, with the most recent example of the materiality assessment. By actively participating in initiatives like the UNEP FI, the bank ensures that its goals reflect broad societal priorities and address key sustainability challenges. For more details on the overall stakeholder engagement process please refer to [SBM-2] Interests and views of stakeholders. Target Progress The Group’s zero financing target for activities with an adverse impact on species diversity, habitats and waterbodies is an absolute target which is measured through two KPIs: 1) new financing volumes in Euro million (Zero volume) and 2) Operational sites owned, leased, managed in or adjacent to protected areas and areas of high biodiversity value outside protected areas. The target was achieved for FY23 and FY24 with no new financing volumes announced for either metric category. Target thresholds Alpha Services and Holdings Group has not identified nor used a specific methodology to identify any ecological thresholds and allocations of impacts for their target as this is described in the abovementioned paragraphs. The Group ensures compliance with the target of absolute zero financing on all activities included in Group’s exclusion list, through its robust credit risk management processes, which monitor all lending activities against the established criteria. As disclosed, this target is absolute, with no permissible thresholds. It is worth mentioning that Alpha Services and Holdings has laid the groundwork for integrating biodiversity considerations into its broader sustainability strategy through existing frameworks such as the SFF. Last but not least, existing governance structures, including the Corporate Governance, Sustainability, and Nominations Committee, ensure that biodiversity-related considerations remain integral to the Group’s sustainability agenda. Target Alignment with international and national policies and legislations Alpha Services and Holdings Group leverages the European Recovery and Resilience Facility (EU RRF). Specifically, under the framework of Greece’s National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP), the the Bank supports projects classified under the green transition pillar, which allocate significant resources to biodiversity protection. Through the RRF, the Group finances projects aimed at urban regeneration, protection of biodiversity, and enhancements in environmental infrastructure, including investments in Civil Protection Centers. These activities contribute to the preservation and sustainable management of ecosystems while fostering the Group's broader sustainability objectives. The RRF’s mandates for climate and biodiversity are fully integrated into the Group’s SFF, ensuring that biodiversity-related financings align with EU Taxonomy criteria and other relevant environmental standards. Targets reflected in Value Chain BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 109 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The Group recognizes the critical importance of biodiversity in its downstream value chain. Through its downstream value chain assessment, the Group has identified key biodiversity-related risks and opportunities, including dependencies on ecosystem services and the impacts of financed projects on habitats and ecosystems. The Group’s activities in sectors such as real estate, tourism, and infrastructure are analyzed using tools like UNEP FI's Portfolio Impact Analysis to identify and manage biodiversity impacts. The Group’s target relating to biodiversity and ecosystems serves to mitigate its downstream material impacts and is applicable everywhere (i.e. in each country) the Bank has its operations. The initial focus for the Group’s sustainable lending targets is its largest entity, Alpha Bank S.A., with the targets having been expanded across the Group for 2024. Finally, the Group has not used biodiversity offsets as part of its target-setting and their target pertains to avoidance on the mitigation hierarchy. Target effectiveness, ambitions and progress Alpha Services and Holdings Group tracks the effectiveness of its policies and targets in relation to material sustainability-related impacts, risks, and opportunities. This is implemented through: 1. structured approach: • governance frameworks as SFF and External Framework Review by ISS Corporate Solutions • periodic assessments as Self-Assessment and annual report for Principles for Responsible Banking • qualitative and quantitative indicators that are aligned with international standards such as the EU Taxonomy, the UNEP FI Principles for Responsible Banking, and Alpha Services and Holdings Group’s SFF. 2. mechanisms, not limited to: • Policy Effectiveness Tracking: Regular reviews of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) risks and integration into credit assessment processes to ensure that clients meet sustainability thresholds. • Defined Levels of Ambition: Commitment to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, operationalized through interim science-based reductions and sustainable financing expectations. • Qualitative and Quantitative Indicators: Metrics such as exposure to transition-sensitive sectors, greenhouse gas emissions metrics and biodiversity impacts indicators to evaluate progress and manage risks. • Baseline Assessments: Reference points for progress measurement, such as emissions intensity benchmarks and sectoral sustainability profiles. The Group implements a process of ESG risk categorization and due diligence during credit approvals.

ESRS E5 - RESOURCE USE AND CIRCULAR ECONOMY [Ε5-1] Policies related to resource use and circular economy Key Environmental and resource Use Policies BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 110 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The Alpha Services and Holdings Group adopts a proactive approach to the management of ESG risks, with particular emphasis placed on risks arising from climate and environmental change, which is already a key component of its Risk Management. Thus, the Group has set a series of key policies to manage material sustainability matters such as the Climate related, Environmental, Social and Governance Risk Management Policy on Group’s Business Lending and the ESG in Loan Origination. For further details about these policies as well as the monitoring process please refer to [E1-2] Policies related to climate change mitigation and adaptation. The Group’s exclusion policy pertains to the downstream scope of its value chain. The established commitments apply to all the Group’s operations, in every country where it operates. Implementation of resource use-related Policies In the context of ESG and Climate Risk Governance, Alpha Services and Holdings Group has implemented a comprehensive structure, addressing relevant decision making and implementation at all levels. For more details on this structure, you may refer to [E1-2] Policies related to climate change mitigation and adaptation. All third-party standards or initiatives the Group commits to regarding the policy implementation are listed also in E1 as referred above. Stakeholder Involvement in Policies In accordance with the Group’s Environmental Policy, it maintains ongoing communication with its shareholders, clients, partners, and government entities concerning sustainability matters. It consistently publishes reports detailing the outcomes of its environmental initiatives. After gathering feedback from Investors, the Group introduced the Sustainable lending strategy, SFF, and Reduction of the Group’s environmental impact. For more information on relevant stakeholder involvement in policies and how the aforementioned policies are made available to stakeholders, please refer to [E4-2] Policies related to biodiversity and ecosystems. In its financing activities, the Group actively promotes circular economy practices among its clients by integrating environmental and social criteria into credit assessments. Projects focusing on recycling, waste reduction, and the use of recycled materials are prioritized in the Group's SFF, which aligns with the EU Taxonomy for environmentally sustainable activities. The Group's exposure to circularity-related projects for the full FY 2024 amounted to Euro 1.83 million. Additionally, through the financial services, the Group encourages clients to transition away from reliance on virgin resources by adopting circular economy principles as ESG criteria are embedded throughout the financing process to ensure alignment with sustainability objectives at every stage of the credit lifecycle. To strengthen these efforts, the Group has established robust monitoring mechanisms, overseen by the Corporate Governance, Sustainability, and Nominations Committee, to assess and track the environmental impact of financed projects. The Group’s approach to sustainable sourcing and the use of renewable resources is firmly integrated into its business practices and aligned with international sustainability standards, including the EU Taxonomy for environmentally sustainable activities and its ISO 14001-certified Environmental Management System (EMS). In its financing activities and broader economic contributions, the Group prioritizes funding for projects and businesses that advance the use of renewable resources and sustainable practices. Financing is directed towards industries such as renewable energy, green buildings, and sustainable agriculture according to the SFF. [Ε5-2] Actions and resources related to resource use and circular economy Resource Use and Circular Economy key actions The Group has a negative impact to Resource Security (which affects the development of a Circular Economy) through the Group’s products/services and business relationships. As a result, the Group has developed a list of green and social activities that are eligible for sustainable financing which has been implemented for FY24 and will continue to be applied in the future. These activities include five distinct themes: Energy Efficiency, Renewable Energy, Sustainable Transport, Resource Efficiency and Pollution Control, and Green Buildings. Thus, the Group has committed to (re)finance: • Processes and infrastructure that facilitate recycling. Examples: waste management companies which incorporate recycling and sustainable waste management practices. • New technology to facilitate maximum use of waste. Examples: separation of materials or energy efficient recycling technology. • Treatment of bio-waste through anaerobic digestion in dedicated plants with the resulting production and utilization of biogas and digestate. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 111 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • Treatment of bio-waste through composting (aerobic digestion) in dedicated facilities with the resulting production and utilization of compost. • Companies/projects that substitute virgin raw materials with secondary (recycled) materials originating from materials and resources recovery. • Companies/projects that increase the capacity utilization of a product or asset during its useful life through sharing business models. Sharing is circular when it optimizes the utilization of the product or asset. • Repair activities and activities that facilitate reduction in material use. Examples: renting electric appliances instead of buying or community-based equipment sharing, etc. Alpha Services and Holdings Group is implementing sustainability into its operations and financing activities according to its SFF and in alignment with global sustainability goals, including the Paris Agreement, the EU Green Deal, and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The Group provides funding for projects that promote recycling, composting, and innovative waste-to-energy solutions, including the production of biogas and secondary materials with an established goal of achieving EUR 4.4 billion in sustainable financing disbursements by 2026. Regarding geographies and stakeholder groups, actions applicability please refer to the relevant section in [E4-3] Actions and resources related to biodiversity and ecosystems. To support remediation for communities impacted by material environmental harms, the Group has financed projects aimed at improving waste management infrastructure in regions with historically inadequate waste processing systems. The Epirus Region and Peloponnese Region PPP projects exemplify this commitment, directly reducing pollution, minimizing harmful environmental impacts, and improving public health outcomes. These efforts address the systemic harm caused by improper waste management, ensuring compliance with international environmental standards while benefiting local communities. The Epirus plant, operational since 2019, ensures at least 17,000 tonnes of recyclable materials are recovered annually, contributing to national recycling targets. The plant generates 10,800 kilowatt-hours of green energy every year, enough to power 3,000 households, while preventing the release of 12,000 tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Additionally, it produces 25,000 tonnes of compost annually, supporting sustainable agricultural practices and reducing reliance on chemical fertilizers. The Peloponnese plant, which is expected for completion in 2025, will prevent regional landfill waste, at least 65% of biodegradable materials will be utilized, 50,000 tons of liquid waste will be diverted from landfills, and green energy will be generated to serve the needs of 6,000 households, while avoiding release of 24,000 tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Resources for implementation of actions Alpha Services and Holdings Group acknowledges the importance of allocating appropriate financial and other resources to effectively implement its action plans. As a financial institution, the Group’s action towards circular economy as disclosed within this section in the abovementioned paragraphs involve lending – financing activity. Consequently, traditional classifications of operational expenditures (OpEx) and capital expenditures (CapEx) do not directly apply. Regarding the capital allocation for the implementation of Bank’s action plan please refer to the relevant section in [E4-3] Actions and resources related to biodiversity and ecosystems. [Ε5-3] Targets related to resource use and circular economy Resource Use and Circularity Targets The Group has identified through its Materiality Analysis the potential negative impacts on circularity (resources and waste) through its financial products/services. In order to promote the reduction of waste generation and promotion of the principles of the circular economy in alignment with SDG 12 “Responsible Consumption and Production” the Group monitors the financing provided in alignment with the Bank’s SFF Green pillar - Resource efficiency and pollution control theme which targets loans for recycling and reuse and circular economy. The Bank sets an overall target for new sustainable financings of EUR 4.4 billion for 2024-2026 which includes dedicated purpose financing to Companies/projects that substitute virgin raw materials with secondary (recycled) materials originating from materials and resources recovery, Companies/projects that increase the capacity utilization of a product or asset during its useful life through sharing business models and Repair activities and activities that facilitate reduction in material use. In addition, the Bank measures and monitors the financing eligible and aligned to the EU Taxonomy objective for the transition to a circular economy, in accordance with Article 8 of the EU Taxonomy. The Group’s target applies to its downstream value chain and is applicable everywhere (i.e., in each country) that there areoperations. The initial focus for the Group’s sustainable lending targets is its largest entity, Alpha Bank S.A., with the targets having been expanded across the Group for 2024. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 112 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT TABLE 47 TARGET - CIRCULARITY-RELATED SUSTAINABLE FINANCING Target description Target level Absolute/ Relative Baseline value Baseline year Target Year Scope Progress in 2024 KPIs Allocate Euro 4.4 billion to new Sustainable Financings by 2026 (SFF aligned loans and bonds) Euro 4.4 billion Absolute N/A 2024 2026 Banking sector, Downstream Alpha Bank S.A. • Euro 1.809 billion overall target Euro 1.831 million on Recycling and Reuse New financing volumes (in Euro million) Targets Assumptions, Methodologies, Scenarios, Data Collection and Alignment with International Policies The Bank is in the process to develop more targets on material sustainability matters for the organization and is actively leveraging its Materiality Analysis and SFF to identify areas of priority and impact. The finalization will consider both local and international sustainability contexts. To ensure the robustness of its existing target of Euro 4.4 billion towards new Sustainable Financings including circularity-focused projects by 2026, Alpha Bank utilizes methodologies and frameworks provided by the organizations and initiatives it participates in or supports. As a signatory of the Net-Zero Banking Alliance (NZBA), the Bank is aligning its long-term objectives with the net-zero pathways, using science- based scenarios to measure and track emissions reductions. Through the UN Principles for Responsible Banking (PRB), Alpha Bank has integrated the SDGs and Paris Agreement objectives into its business model. Further, Alpha Bank adheres to the Green Bond Principles (2021) and Green Loan Principles (2021) to classify and track sustainable financing activities, ensuring that these meet globally recognized sustainability standards. As part of its membership in the UN Environment Program Finance Initiative (UNEP FI), the Bank applies best practices to assess risks and opportunities in its financing activities, particularly related to circular economy and resource (re)use. To enhance transparency and align with international policy goals, the Group incorporates guidance from the TCFD in its reporting and integrates climate-related risks into its decision-making processes. Furthermore, through its participation in the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), the Group ensures its sustainability targets address broader social and environmental considerations. The targets under development will also align with Greece’s Recovery and Resilience Plan and other relevant EU and national policies. The methodologies will incorporate both quantitative metrics (e.g., total amount allocated to sustainable financing, total financing specifically to renewable energy projects, percentage reduction in financing activities that negatively impact the environment) and qualitative indicators (e.g., governance improvements, programs initiated to educate stakeholders, awards and recognitions received), ensuring progress is measurable, traceable, and aligned with the Group's commitment to sustainable development. Further engagement to diverse stakeholders, including regulators, Customers, and community representatives takes place through structured dialogues and collaborative platforms, with the most recent example of materiality assessment. More details on the stakeholders engagement process please refer to the relevant section in [SBM-2] Interests and views of stakeholders. By actively participating in initiatives like the UNEP- FI, the Group ensures that its goals reflect broad societal priorities and address key sustainability challenges. While more targets are included, Group remains committed to maintaining transparency through regular updates in its Sustainability Report and other disclosures. Progress against targets Since the existing commitment of 4.4 billion EUR towards new Sustainable Financings including circularity-focused projects by 2026 took effect in FY23, an additional KPI metric has been introduced to measure progress more effectively. The metric is an absolute number, EUR 1,831 million and no significant assumptions behind it are taken. The methodology used for this metric is based on the activities incorporating circular economy principles in alignment with the SFF and SDG 12. The first disclosure year was FY23 when the commitment took effect. Although no trend analysis the target is currently in line as initially planned for FY24 and ongoing until 2026. The Group has established voluntary targets, such as reaching a 4.4 billion sustainable disbursement goal for 2024–2026 and achieving net- zero emissions by 2050 under Net-Zero Banking Alliance, reflect the bank’s ambition to exceed compliance standards and align with global best practices. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 113 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The European Recovery and Resilience Facility (EU RRF) plays a critical role in Alpha Bank’s sustainability strategy. RRF loans are aligned with Greece’s Recovery and Resilience Plan, financing projects that enhance resource efficiency, promote circular economy principles, and accelerate the green energy transition. While compliance with RRF requirements is mandatory, Alpha Bank voluntarily extends these principles to its broader lending portfolio, further supporting the green transition of SMEs and other key sectors. The Group’s broader sustainability strategy integrates the Paris Agreement and the European Circular Economy Action Plan. Targets Applicability The Group acknowledges the importance of improving disclosures for its subsidiaries and entities in other countries. As disclosed in the 2023 Sustainability Report, the Group aims to standardize its materiality assessments and enhance transparency across all regions of operation. Therefore, for entities or subsidiaries not explicitly covered in the present Sustainability Statement, the Group confirms that efforts are underway to extend these frameworks and assessments. Reasons for this stem from varying stages of implementation of standardized materiality assessments and data collection processes across regions such as local regulatory requirements, operational structures, and resource availability [Ε5-6] Anticipated financial effects from material resource use and circular economy-related risks and opportunities Anticipated Financial effect of circular economy-related risks Please refer to [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities. Anticipated Financial effect of circular economy-related opportunities In order to assess the anticipated financial effect, the Group has evaluated if any material circular economy related opportunities (EU Taxonomy aligned and other sustainable financings according to the Group SFF) are anticipated in the short-, medium- and long-term. Please consult [IRO-1] Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities for information on opportunities related to circular economy across the three time horizons evaluated. SOCIAL INFORMATION ESRS S1 - OWN WORKFORCE [S1.SBM-3] Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model The Group's workforce includes only Employees who can be materially impacted by its operations in the scope of its disclosure. The comprehensive approach to sustainability ensures that all material impacts on the Group’s workforce are considered and disclosed in accordance with ESRS 2. The workforce comprises full-time and part-time Employees, both on permanent and fixed-term contracts. Additionally, the Group engages self-employed individuals and people provided by third-party undertakings primarily engaged in employment activities. These third-party workers include contractors and service providers, who support the Group's operations in areas such as maintenance, cleaning, and security, but data is not available for non-Employees. The Group ensures that there are no material negative impacts in the areas of its operation. The Group's operations are primarily within the EU, where stringent regulations and oversight mechanisms are in place to prevent issues such as child labor, forced labor, or/and compulsory labor. Additionally, the Group has robust policies and procedures (as referenced in the section [S1-1] Policies related to own workforce, and [S1-2] Processes for remediate negative impacts and channels for own workforce to raise concerns) to address and mitigate individual incidents, ensuring prompt and effective responses to minimize any adverse effects. Activities of the Group that result in material positive impacts on its own workforce include various initiatives aimed at improving the work environment and employee well-being. These activities positively affect all Employees, including full-time and part-time Employees. The Group runs several projects to ensure the well-being of its workforce as part of its strategy focuses on creating a safe, inclusive, and supportive work environment for all. Some of the key topics we have identified as per the Double Materiality Assessment include: Secure Employment: Implementing policies to ensure job security, offering long-term contracts, and minimizing layoffs through strategic workforce planning. The above affects all Employees, particularly those in roles susceptible to automation or restructuring. Social Dialogue: Establishing regular communication channels between management and Employees, creating forums for discussion, and involving Employees in decision-making processes (e.g., talk to us, establishment of the Alpha Way Communities of Change Workshop etc.). The above actions benefit all Employees, since it provides them with a “voice” in the organization. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 114 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Freedom of Association: Supporting the formation of employee unions, ensuring the right to collective bargaining, and respecting workers' rights to unionize. Diversity: Implementing diversity and inclusion programs, promoting gender equality, supporting underrepresented groups, and ensuring equal opportunities for all Employees, are some of the activities the Group promotes to help create a more supportive and inclusive work environment that enhances employee satisfaction and overall organizational performance. Training and Skills Development: Offering continuous learning opportunities, providing access to professional development courses, and supporting career advancement through mentorship programs and through learning and development tools for all Employees, equally (e.g., Udemy). As a result, Employees are enabled to seamlessly adapt to modern work practices and evolving job roles. For the purposes of the Financial Materiality Assessment the Group leveraged the RCSA inherent risk assessment outcome which identified Training and Skills Development as a material inherent risk. This is due to Group's dependency on human capital, the ever evolving regulatory and technological advancements, and therefore an increased need for continuous training of a large number of the Group Employees. However, no material opportunities with current and anticipated financial effects on the Group have been identified. It is noted that no operations at significant risk of incidents of forced labor or compulsory labor, either in terms of type of operations or in terms of countries or geographic areas with operations considered at risk, are in place. Furthermore, there are no operations at significant risk of incidents of child labor, as there are no countries or geographic areas with operations considered at significant risk of child labor incidents. Importantly, there are no risks of harm for the Group’s own workforce, as the Group has not identified any groups of Employees with particular characteristics, those working in particular contexts, or those undertaking particular activities who may be at greater risk of harm. This assessment ensures that the Group's own workforce remains safe and well-supported in their roles. Finally, no material risks or opportunities arising from impacts and dependencies on specific groups of people in the Group’s own workforce have been identified through the double materiality assessment. The Group’s entire own workforce, and especially women, young professionals and migrants, groups that usually face greater struggles in the workplace, remain safe and well-supported in their roles, with no specific Employee groups being at greater risk of harm or benefiting disproportionately from the Group's initiatives. Transitioning to greener operations may lead to changes in certain roles, with some becoming less relevant as the company adapts. To support the Employees through this shift, the Group is committed to offering reskilling and upskilling programs, helping individuals develop new skills, aligned to sustainable finance and green technologies. The introduction of new technologies for greener operations, may necessitate updated health and safety protocols, including additional training and respective equipment. Transition plans will also include policies that promote remote work and flexible hours to reduce commuting-related carbon emissions. This aims at improving work-life balance, but may also require relevant adjustments. By addressing these key areas, the Group aims to ensure a smooth transition, that minimizes negative impacts and maximizes positive outcomes for all Employees. [S1-1] Policies related to own workforce The Group is committed to maintaining a responsible and inclusive work environment. To manage potential material impacts that may occur, the following policies have been adopted: Corporate Responsibility Policy The Policy follows internationally acclaimed directives, principles, and initiatives to protect human rights, such as the Core Labor Conventions of the International Labor Organization (ILO) and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). With reference to own workforce, the Policy addresses the respect to human rights and renounces any form of child, forced or compulsory labor. At the same time, it recognizes the right to form trade unions and the right of collective bargaining, which are established under national and international regulations. It also promotes the respect towards the diversity of its workforce, fair renumeration and ensures the continuous training and education of the Employees, and lastly, promotes health and safety of Employees at the workplace, and work life balance. The aforementioned principles are endorsed across the Group, while the current policy refers to the Group’s subsidiaries in Greece and abroad where it holds a presence. The monitoring of the Policy is operated by the Marketing and Public Relations Business Area and there are considerations for updating it in the short-term time horizon. Code of Conduct and Ethics BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 115 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Alpha Services and Holdings Group has introduced a Code of Conduct and Ethics policy, which has been approved by the BoD through the Corporate Governance Sustainability and Nominations Committee. It describes the Group commitments and practices regarding its activities, its management and the rules of conduct that apply to its Executives and Employees in their interactions not only with each other, but also with transacting parties and Shareholders. The Group attaches great importance to matters of ethics and transparency and has in place clear rules and regulations, established through the Personnel Regulations and the Acts of the General Management, regarding matters such as the protection of personal data, the prohibition for Executives and Employees to accept gifts in the context of performing their official duties, as well as potential cases of conflict of interest while conducting transactions. The overall objectives of the policy are to uphold ethical business conduct, regulatory compliance, and corporate transparency across all operations of Alpha Services and Holdings Group. The Code of Conduct and Ethics establishes the foundation for integrity, accountability, and responsible corporate governance, ensuring alignment with the Group’s values and regulatory obligations. This policy is directly linked to the material impacts, risks, and opportunities identified through the Group’s double materiality assessment, such as ensuring ethical conduct, fair treatment, secure employment, social dialogue, and non-discrimination within Alpha Services and Holdings Group. The Code supports a corporate culture, where employees are protected, empowered, and encouraged to uphold ethical standards. The process for monitoring adherence to this policy includes structured compliance frameworks, periodic internal audits, oversight by the Corporate Governance Sustainability and Nominations Committee, and dedicated training programs. Additionally, whistleblowing mechanisms and grievance procedures enable employees to report unethical behavior or violations. The Alpha Services and Holdings Group respects and promotes human rights through the business policies it applies, its responsible supply chain operation and its relationships with the Customers. More details about the Code are provided under [G1-1] Business conduct policies and corporate culture. Diversity and Inclusion The Policy applies to the selection procedure for BoD Members and is also taken into consideration for the appointment of Alpha Bank S.A.’s Senior Management and Employees. The objectives of the Policy are to: • Support and promote diversity on the BoD and Employees. • Engage a broad set of qualities and competences when recruiting Members of the BoD and Employees, to achieve a variety of views and experiences and to facilitate independent opinions and sound decision-making within the BoD. • Aim at an appropriate representation of all genders within the BoD. • Ensure that the equal opportunities principle is respected, when selecting Members of the BoD. • Ensure equal treatment and opportunities for Employees of different genders. When setting diversity objectives, the Alpha Bank S.A. should consider diversity benchmarking results published by competent authorities, the EBA or other relevant international bodies or organizations. The monitoring process for the Diversity and Inclusion Policy is ensured through continuous oversight and evaluation by the Corporate Governance, Sustainability and Nominations Committee (CGSNC). This committee is responsible for assessing the implementation of the policy, reviewing gender representation and overall diversity at the Board of Directors, Senior Management, and Employee levels within Alpha Bank S.A. As part of the annual evaluation of the Board’s effectiveness, the committee analyzes its composition, taking into account diversity in skills, experience, and representation. If diversity objectives are not met, the committee investigates the underlying reasons and recommends corrective actions to ensure compliance with the principles of equal opportunity and inclusion. Additionally, the policy is periodically reassessed against diversity benchmarking results published by competent authorities such as the EBA or other relevant international organizations, ensuring its alignment with regulatory requirements and industry best practices. In accordance with corporate governance standards, the policy is reviewed every two years, with any necessary amendments submitted for approval to the BoD, ensuring its continuous adaptation to the evolving needs of Alpha Bank and the broader diversity and inclusion landscape. While the existing policy was initially established in 2021, it is expected to be updated in the short-term time horizon. Violence and Harassment Prevention The Group has a zero-tolerance approach to any form of harassment, including sexual harassment and domestic violence that could potentially affect the workplace environment. The violence and harassment policy, established in 2022, sets the framework for preventing and addressing workplace discrimination, violence, and harassment, ensuring a respectful and dignified environment. The policy applies to: BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 116 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • all Employees • contractors • interns • all related stakeholders It establishes clear mechanisms for reporting, investigating, and taking appropriate actions to and resolve incidents confidentially and impartially.

The Evaluation Committee for Reports and Complaints is responsible for reviewing all submitted cases and determining appropriate actions, with strict adherence to confidentiality principles and non-retaliation safeguards. Support and protection for victims are prioritized, and the Group commits to raising awareness through training and resources to prevent future occurrences. Any form of retaliation or malicious reporting is strictly prohibited, ensuring a safe reporting system and compliance with legal obligations. The policy against violence and harassment at the workplace, in accordance with Law 4808/2021, explicitly covers discrimination based on gender, race, color, ethnic or social origin, genetic characteristics, language, religion or beliefs, political opinions, disability or health status, age, or sexual orientation. The monitoring process for the Violence and Harassment Prevention Policy is structured in such a way so as to ensure its continuous implementation and effectiveness. The Corporate Governance, Sustainability, and Nominations Committee (CGSNC) is responsible for overseeing the enforcement of the policy, ensuring that incidents are managed in a manner consistent with legal and regulatory requirements. Additionally, awareness and training programs are regularly conducted to reinforce the Group’s zero-tolerance approach and to educate employees, contractors, and stakeholders on identifying and preventing workplace violence and harassment. Periodic internal reviews and audits ensure compliance with the policy, while benchmarking against industry best practices and legal standards provides a framework for continuous improvement. The policy undergoes a formal review process every two years, during which its effectiveness is reassessed, and updates are proposed to the Board of Directors as necessary. Any corrective actions required due to identified policy breaches or gaps are implemented to enhance workplace safety and maintain a respectful and inclusive environment. For further information, please refer to [S1-13] Training and skills development metrics below. Career Framework Alpha Services and Holdings Group is committed to providing structured growth opportunities, enhancing organizational effectiveness, and establishing itself as a preferred employer. To support these objectives, the Career Framework Policy establishes a comprehensive structure to define, evaluate, and manage roles within the Group, ensuring clarity, fairness, and alignment with strategic objectives. The policy categorizes roles based on job titles, career levels, and job families, creating a consistent framework for role assessment and career development. The policy integrates seamlessly with core human resources systems, including talent management, compensation, and workforce planning. It supports dual career paths, enabling Employees to advance either through managerial roles or as individual contributors, based on their expertise and aspirations. Role evaluations are conducted objectively, focusing on responsibilities, required competencies, and their impact on the organization, ensuring a transparent and equitable approach. Periodic reviews ensure the framework remains aligned with market standards and organizational needs. The Policy applies to all Employees of the Bank and the Group Companies, except for any specific requirements and adjustments to individual issues. These exceptions must be approved by the Executive Committee, adhere to the local, supervisory, and legislative provisions of the countries where the Group operates. Remuneration Policy for employees The Remuneration Policy of Alpha Bank establishes a structured framework for employee compensation, ensuring compliance with Greek laws, European Banking Authority (EBA) guidelines, and financial best practices. The policy aims to attract and retain skilled Employees, encourage long-term sustainable performance, and align compensation with the bank’s strategic objectives and risk management framework. It balances fixed and variable remuneration, where fixed pay includes base salary and mandatory benefits, while variable pay consists of performance-based bonuses, stock options, and deferred incentives. The policy ensures gender neutrality, equal pay, and diversity and inclusion. The governance of the policy is overseen by the BoD and the Remuneration Committee. Risk management mechanisms, such as malus (reduction) and clawback (recovery) clauses, prevent excessive risk-taking and ensure accountability. Performance evaluation is based on a mix of financial, non-financial, and risk-adjusted criteria, ensuring that compensation decisions support long-term corporate stability. The policy undergoes annual reviews to align with regulatory changes and market trends. Within this structured and comprehensive remuneration policy, Alpha Bank ensures sustainable growth while safeguarding the interests of its Employees, shareholders and stakeholders. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 117 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT An updated Remuneration policy for the Members of Alpha Bank S.A.’s BoD was published in 2024 incorporating criteria linked with climate- related and environmental goals. More information on the policy is provided in [E1-2] Policies related to climate change mitigation and adaptation. The policies adhere to the principles of the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) and the International Labor Organization (ILO) standards; comply with national labor laws and the European Union's directives on fair pay; align with the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights and the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises. Implementation of policies related to own workforce Depending on the focus of each policy, the HR Strategy, Rewards and Organizational Effectiveness area has developed and contributed to policies through consultation with employee representatives, diversity and inclusion experts, feedback from employee surveys; consultation with labor unions, employee representatives, and financial experts; and by receiving input from human rights organizations, employee representatives, and legal advisors. Those policies are communicated to all Employees through the Group’s Intranet, Employee handbooks, and training sessions. Oversight of policies related to own workforce The Group has designed and implemented several policies to mitigate potential negative impacts on its own workforce, due to material sustainability matters. The scope of the relevant policies includes the entirety of its workforce, so that equality and fairness are promoted at the same time. Employees at the highest managerial level are also subject to these policies and thus, can benefit from their implementation. The most senior level in the organization accountable for the implementation of these policies varies depending on the specific policy. For the Corporate Responsibility Policy, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) holds ultimate accountability, ensuring that the Group's sustainability commitments and ethical responsibilities are upheld. The Code of Conduct and Ethics is overseen by the Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), ensuring adherence to ethical standards and regulatory requirements. The Diversity and Inclusion Policy falls under the responsibility of the Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO), who ensures the promotion of equal opportunities and diversity across all levels of the Group. The Violence and Harassment Prevention Policy is monitored and enforced by the Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO) in coordination with the CGSNC, which ensures the policy's alignment with legal and ethical standards. The Career Framework Policy is under the responsibility of the Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO), who oversees career development, employee progression, and fair employment practices. Τhe Remuneration Policy is supervised by the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and the Remuneration Committee, ensuring alignment with regulatory frameworks and market standards while promoting equitable and sustainable compensation structures. These senior executives ensure that the policies are effectively implemented, reviewed, and updated, in accordance with evolving regulatory requirements, internal objectives, and sustainability commitments. Scope of policies Policies and Processes regarding diversity, inclusion, fair renumeration and human rights apply to all Group Employees, across all levels and departments, as well as to Employees that are primarily employed outside of Greece. This way the Group ensures that all Employees receive the same treatment, and no discriminations or favorable treatment are present. Specific groups of Employees, such as women or young professionals, are covered by the scope of those policies and remain protected in all aspects of their work life. For example, specific provisions are in place to ensure that women Employees are not negatively impacted in case of pregnancies. Also, young professionals, in the first steps of their career, are protected from exploitation, since the Group is complying with national law requirements on minimum wage and working hours, as well as with the banking sector collective agreement of OTOE, while also has adopted internal policies that ensure fair renumeration and career advancements based on performance and merit. In 2024, review and adjustment of compensation structures were also in place, to ensure fairness in renumeration, as well as to ensure that the renumeration reflects the new roles and responsibilities associated with greener operations. The implementation of the “Remote Working” policy, as well as flexible working arrangements, have become part of the Group’s culture and are targeted at reducing unnecessary employee transportations. Moreover, the Group has implemented strict anti-discrimination policies and provided training to prevent harassment and promote a respectful workplace. By adopting these policies and practices, the Group can manage the material impacts, risks, and opportunities related to their workforce, ensuring a smooth transition to more sustainable operations. As described in [G1-1] Business conduct policies and corporate culture in which the Code of Conduct and Ethics is described in more detail, the policy and the relevant trainings were updated within the reporting period. Additionally, there are no changes in job creation and upskilling opportunities for the workforce specifically in Group’s policies, and they are part of the Group's overall strategy, and the organization implements several programs regarding this matter. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 118 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Several programs and initiatives have been launched already and are part of the Group’s broader strategy. For example, the Alpha Bank S.A. provided a digital certification program for 1,500 network Employees as part of the upskilling efforts. Additionally, the Group launched the 'Leading for Impact' program, which focuses on upskilling and mentoring the senior leadership team. These initiatives were not part of a specific policy, but aligned with the Group’s overall strategic goals. The Group is committed to upholding human rights and ensuring fair treatment for all Employees. These commitments are reflected in the detailed description of Group's Code of Conduct and Ethics and policy against violence and harassment at the workplace as presented in section [S1-1] Policies related to own workforce. The Group's approach is always guided by the principles outlined in the Group’s Code of Conduct and Ethics and the Personnel Organization, in which employee rights are well documented and protected. The Code includes provisions regarding the Group’s commitment to: a. maintaining a culture of inclusion and acceptance for all Employees, b. recognizing that the organizations’ sustainable development is linked to its workplace and based on the health and well-being of its workforce and providing related benefits designed to ensure a secure workplace, c. promoting a working environment free from any kind of discrimination and violence, especially through the Policy on “Preventing and Combating Discrimination, Violence and Harassment at Work and the Management of Reports - Complaints on Incidents of Discrimination, Violence and Harassment" that has been adopted. The Code of Conduct and Ethics is in place to ensure that various labor rights, such as equal pay for equal work, right to freedom of association etc., are not only part of national law but also a standard the Group wants to uphold and honor as an organization, since they align with its values. The Group is deeply committed to fostering an environment where every voice is valued, and feedback is both encouraged and acted upon. Hence, it has several mechanisms in place to monitor compliance with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work and the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises, including trainings that align with the aforementioned and grievance mechanisms which are referenced in detail in the Grievance or Complaints Handling Mechanisms Related to Employee Matters section of the S1- Own workforce.

The most recent survey, held in June/July 2024, achieved an impressive 85% response rate, with 5,267 Employees participating across the Group. This high participation rate reflects the strong engagement and commitment of the Group’s own workforce. Furthermore, Employees submitted over 3,080 comments, demonstrating their trust in the survey, as a meaningful platform to share their thoughts and concerns. The survey findings are presented to the organization’s top management, with a detailed report outlining key insights and areas for improvement. In addition, managers are tasked with discussing the feedback with their teams, ensuring Employees’ input is acknowledged and specific opportunities for improvement are addressed. To maintain transparency, the overall survey results are shared with the entire workforce through an Intranet announcement, ensuring that all Employees are informed about the outcomes and the steps being taken to address them. An action plan is developed collaboratively, engaging senior leadership to provide solutions and ideas that address the key areas for improvement identified in the survey, ensuring that the actions taken are comprehensive, effective, and aligned with both employee expectations and leadership support. The Group has implemented several measures to provide and enable remedies for human rights impacts and ensures top-quality working conditions and opportunities for advancement, based on merit and equitable treatment.

To achieve this, the Group takes appropriate measures and makes reasonable adjustments to working conditions to support potentially affected Employees. It informs and sensitizes Employees through various means, including printed and electronic materials and trainings. This ensures that all Employees are aware of the policies and procedures regarding discrimination and harassment.

[S1-2] Processes for engaging with own workers and workers’ representatives about impacts Workforce Engagement at Group level The Alpha Services and Holdings Group has established comprehensive processes and implemented multiple initiatives for engaging with its workforce and workers’ representatives to address actual and potential impacts. These processes are part of the entire Group’s ongoing due diligence efforts to ensure that Employees’ perspectives and feedback, as key internal stakeholders, inform its decisions and activities effectively. Communication and Feedback Human Resources Outreach: The Human Resources (HR) function is primarily responsible for ensuring that employee engagement occurs and that the results of this engagement inform the bank’s approach. This responsibility is led by the Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO), who, along with other HR directors and managers, plays a pivotal role in this process. The CHRO and the HR leadership team regularly convene to discuss and address various employee matters and concerns raised, to develop and implement new policies and strategies within the Alpha Group and generally remain responsive and aligned with the needs and expectations of its workforce.

It must be noted that Alpha Services and Holdings Group takes several proactive steps to gain insight into the perspectives of women and people with disabilities within its workforce. The Group has established Diversity and Inclusion Programs that specifically address the needs and challenges faced by these groups, ensuring they feel valued and supported. Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) provide a platform to share their experiences and concerns, fostering a sense of community and enabling the bank to understand their unique perspectives. Labor Agreements and Employee Representation The bank respects the right to union membership and collective bargaining, engaging with worker representatives to discuss and negotiate on matters affecting the workforce.

Engagement with Unions: The Alpha Bank Group Employees Association also closely collaborates with HR. More specifically, monthly meeting discussions are held pertaining to topics of employee welfare, workplace policies, and other relevant issues. This cooperation provides a structured platform for dialogue and collaboration and ensures that employee voices are heard and considered in decision-making processes. As a result the above information evidences the general process in place for the Group to engage with its own workforce.

Specifically, the Policy for Violence and Harassment designates the individual responsible for receiving relevant reports. Furthermore, through the intranet, every employee can contact the Human Resources Business Area to discuss work-related concerns, as well as matters related to health, safety, and wellbeing, via specially designed channels (speak up, talk2us, relevant microsite).

All policies are uploaded to the intranet, where every employee can easily access them. The intranet serves as a centralized repository for all policy documents, ensuring that Employees have immediate access to the latest versions of all relevant policies. This includes detailed guidelines on how to report concerns, the procedures for handling reports, and the support available to Employees. By making these policies readily accessible, the Bank ensures that Employees are well-informed about the processes in place to address their concerns and needs. The Bank’s policy for Violence and Harassment explicitly prohibits any form of retaliation against Employees who report concerns. This policy outlines the procedures for reporting incidents, investigating complaints, and taking appropriate actions to resolve issues.

Financial resources are allocated to support initiatives such as sustainability projects, technology investments, and partnerships with external experts and organizations that enhance our ability to manage impacts effectively. Training and Capacity Building Recognizing the critical role of employee awareness and skill development in managing material impacts, ongoing training programs remain an ongoing priority for the organization. These programs are designed to equip Employees at all levels with the knowledge and competencies needed to understand and address material impacts. Training topics include environmental stewardship, human rights, ethical business practices, and compliance with relevant regulations. Additionally, targeted training is provided to Employees in key roles, ensuring they can apply best practices and innovative solutions in their respective areas of responsibility. By allocating dedicated resources and fostering a culture of continuous learning and improvement, Alpha Bank ensures that its approach to managing material impacts is both effective and aligned with the commitment to sustainability, transparency, and stakeholder accountability. This integrated approach enables the Group to mitigate risks, seize opportunities, and create long-term value for the organization and stakeholders. [S1-5] - Targets related to managing material negative impacts, advancing positive impacts, and managing material risks and opportunities The following targets are related to the policies referred above and contribute to their objectives. TABLE 48 TARGETS TIED TO OWN WORKFORCE Target description Target level Absolute / Relative Baseline value Baseline year Target Year Scope Progress in 2024 Maintain >40% of womens' representation in Managerial positions >40% Relative 40% 2022 2027 Own operations 42% Increase Youth employment by 20% 20% Relative 20% 2020 2027 Own operations 51% The targets are ongoing and the progress against them is reviewed annually. No milestones or interim targets are in place, as the completion period of the target is annual and will be monitored by 2027. To define the targets no scienced-based evidence related to own workforce has been defined. Target setting has been set through the engagement types, and consultation with internal stakeholders, including Employees and employee representation as per [SBM-2] Interests and views of stakeholders. The Group acknowledges the importance of addressing material sustainability matters such as Secure Employment, Social Dialogue, Freedom of Association, Training and Skills Development, and Diversity. However, the Group has not yet established specific targets regarding these particular sustainability topics, beyond those already disclosed in the MDR table referring to Diversity. While measurable targets have not been explicitly defined, the Group remains fully committed to promoting and improving practices related to these material sustainability topics. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 127 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT It is noted that Employees or Employees representative were not directly engaged in setting the abovementioned targets. The targets related to own workforce were set in collaboration of the GSD and HR Department. The tracking of performance against these targets and any improvements as a result of the current performance are also performed by the abovementioned responsible divisions. However, employee an employee representatives’ feedback is taken into account in all the above steps in order to achieve positive outcomes and response to the expectations of the own workforce. Our organization is committed to ensuring the effectiveness of our policies and actions concerning material sustainability-related impacts, risks, and opportunities. In alignment with this commitment, we actively track and evaluate our performance, even in the absence of formally established measurable outcome-oriented targets. Specifically: Processes for Tracking Effectiveness: Alpha Services and Holdings Group has implemented robust processes to monitor and assess the effectiveness of the sustainability initiatives. These processes include regular internal reviews, stakeholder engagement, and data-driven assessments to ensure that Group’s actions align with its overarching sustainability objectives. Defined Level of Ambition: While measurable targets are in development, the Group has established a clear qualitative level of ambition that serves as a guiding framework for its efforts. This ambition focuses on fostering positive environmental and social outcomes while mitigating associated risks. Indicators and Progress Measurement: To evaluate progress, the Group utilizes a combination of qualitative and quantitative indicators. These indicators are carefully selected to reflect the specific context and nature of the material sustainability-related impacts the Group addresses. Additionally, a base period is defined to measure progress consistently, allowing for meaningful comparisons over time. By adopting these practices, Alpha Group demonstrates its dedication to transparency, accountability, and continuous improvement in sustainability performance. This approach not only reinforces the commitment to responsible business conduct but also ensures that it remains adaptive and responsive to emerging sustainability challenges and opportunities. The Group’s efforts include the ongoing monitoring and evaluation of performance in these areas to ensure alignment with its sustainability values, the implementation of policies and initiatives aimed at fostering a positive and inclusive workplace culture, and active engagement with Employees and stakeholders to identify and address opportunities for progress. Alpha Services and Holdings Group is continuously working to enhance its approach to these matters by developing frameworks, processes, and methodologies that will enable the establishment of specific and outcome-oriented targets in the future. The aim is to ensure that any targets adopted meaningfully reflect the Group’s commitment to these critical sustainability topics and drive tangible improvements.

The types of consumers who are likely to be materially impacted by the Group’s products/services and business relationships are individuals (i.e. private clients), and corporate and SME Customers. More specifically, individuals are people who use the Group’s products/services for personal needs, such as in the instance of savings accounts, mortgages and credit cards. Corporate customers are large businesses that have more complex needs, such as loans for operations, expansion, cash flow management and investments. Further, SME customers are small and medium-sized enterprises that need banking services to support their operations and growth, including business loans. The positive impacts on them arise from the offering of products and services contributing to the access to products and services, i.e. Finance and Housing. Moreover, a broader socio-economic positive impact is created to Customers and broader society/economy through the Group’s products/services and business relationships, contributing to Healthy Economies. The Group does not engage in the sale of products and services that are inherently harmful to individuals. Due to the nature of the Group’s operations, it handles sensitive personal information, therefore there is an inherent risk of data breaches or misuse of personal information. Furthermore, consumers depend on precise information concerning financial products and services, including loan terms, interest rates, and fees. The Group offers its services and products to all consumers and end-users, without any form of discrimination and with respect to their freedom of expression. The Group ensures that all product-related information is transparent and readily accessible to prevent potential misuse or misunderstanding of its products and services. Customers may include certain groups that could be particularly susceptible to negative impacts resulting from marketing and sales strategies or privacy-related incidents, such as young and senior individuals and other financially vulnerable individuals (e.g., low-income borrowers). The Group ensures that no such material negative impacts to its Customers could occur, through its initiatives, processes and targeted products and services in place e.g. education loans, targeted credit products to other vulnerable groups, and others. Activities resulting in positive impacts to Customers The Group’s activities provide comprehensive and inclusive access to financial services through an extensive variety of high-quality financial products and services. These span across retail banking, corporate and business banking for medium-sized and large enterprises, financing services, asset management, insurance products, investment banking, brokerage, and real estate services in Greece, Cyprus, United Kingdom and Romania. Continuous improvements are made to enhance the Group’s services and products, ensuring ease of access for Customers.

Moreover, the Bank offers the program “Bonus Charity” to further enhance the socio-economic impact of the Bank. For the 16th consecutive year, the Program “Bonus Charity” allowed Alpha Bank Customers to support cooperating non-profit organizations. Through this Program, BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 133 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Customers supported their institution of choice in practice, by redeeming Bonus points and sending the corresponding amount to the relevant institution. This year, 1 new institute was added to the list of cooperating institutions. The Bonus Program subsided the points redeemed by holders and actively supported the institutions, depositing the amount corresponding to more than double the value of the points. In this way, the Bonus Program supported people in need and certified environmental organizations. For 2024, 5,840,000 Bonus points were redeemed through 946 charity transactions, and Euro 29,200 were donated to the 36 charities participating in the Program. During 2024, the Program was intensely promoted on social media, while the new Bonus app proved to be a very successful communication channel. The list of institutions participating in the “Bonus Charity” Program is available on the webpage of the Bank (www.alpha.gr/el/idiotes/bonus/bonus-stin-agapi), with the moto “You can also make a gift of joy by redeeming your Bonus points, choosing among 36 participating associations, and offer your help to those who need it!” Digital solutions to enhance the accessibility of products/services to Customers Innovation and digitalization necessitate a modern Branch Network, advanced digital networks and web-services, providing widespread, inclusive access to financial services. Key imperatives of the Bank’s digital strategy are the continuous improvement in product and service quality, a modern and responsible approach to the Customers’ banking needs as well as the Bank’s uninterrupted operation. Through digital initiatives such as e-banking and digital card wallets, the Group makes it easier and more secure for Customers to access its services and products. Among others, the solutions offered are: • The cards enrolled in wallets (Apple Pay, Google Pay, Garmin Pay, Xiaomi Pay) and the tokenized cards on file, which Alpha Bank was the first to offer to its Customers, maintained in 2024 the positive trend with the number of active digitized cards (tokens) exceeding 8.4 million.

More specifically, regarding myAlpha Rendez-vous by Alpha Bank S.A., it provides the ability to book an appointment and be serviced either through a video call, phone call, or physically at a branch. The Remote Customer Collaboration System (RCCS) consists of the myAlpha Rendez- vous tool offered by the alpha.gr made available to Customers since September 2022 and the Appointment booking widget within the e- Banking environment that was made available to users since May 2023 and continues to be improved and features are added to it. Since their start, the total number of appointments registered by both channels is more than 400,000 with more than 80% of them having been completed and only 20% of them having been cancelled for some reason by the customer himself or the Bank. It is worth noting that approximately 70,000 appointments have been registered through the Outbound Application tool, which is used by the Bank's Customer Service Department and the Branches to register the appointments of Customers who are unable to register their appointment themselves or do not have an email. This feature was added to myAlpha Web for Business in July 2024. All appointments registered through digital channels with more than 72% of them completed without problem, while only 24% of them have been cancelled, for some reason, by the customer himself or the bank. Physical solutions to enhance the accessibility of products/services to Customers Furthermore, the Group provides accessibility of its financial services to all consumers, including persons with disabilities and vulnerable groups by modernizing its physical facilities. In more detail these include: • For Customers with visual and hearing impairment: 1. Branch Services: o Assistance provided without the need for witnesses. 2. Bank Documents: o Documents available in Braille, with a processing time of 7 calendar days. 3. ATM Accessibility: BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 134 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT o Cash withdrawals and balance inquiries available at onsite and offsite ATMs with voice guidance, accessible to Alpha Bank Customers, as well as those from other Greek banks via the DIAS network. o All ATMs have embossed elements on the keyboard for accessibility while many ATMs feature sound commands and tactile indications on keyboards. o For security, customer information is not displayed on the screen during transactions. o Specific ATMs are placed at service points of interest in collaboration with associations for the blind (e.g., KEAT). 4. Customer Service: o Appointments or in-branch assistance available for Customers with hearing impairments. o Accessible video media with subtitles available on Alpha.gr. • For senior citizens and people with increased accessibility needs: o One-to-one educational video sessions provided by the dedicated “e-Banking walkthrough” team. o Modernized facilities of Branches that are accessible to Customers with mobility disabilities. The websites are available in both English and Greek, and this bilingual approach extends to its Customer Service Call Centre. Customers visiting the Branches can also receive assistance in English, and an English-language interface option is available at the Bank’s ATMs. The Branch Network and ATMs form the cornerstone of traditional banking services, and as such, they have been given heightened attention to ensure that all Customers can access financial services equitably in all countries and regions that the Group operates. Through the offering of these products/services, the Group delivers material positive impacts to its Customers. It is noted that no negative material widespread or systemic impact to consumers and end-users has been identified in contexts where the Group sells or provides its products or services or related to individual incidents and specific business relationships. Groups of Customers with particular characteristics, have been identified through the UNEP FI Consumer Banking Identification Module and are incorporated in the SFF. The SFF targets specific groups of Customers such as socioeconomically disadvantaged population, living in rural areas or isolated islands with limited or inadequate basic infrastructure, undereducated, long-term unemployed and working population vulnerable to losing their job due to the energy transition. Additionally, it focuses on elderly, youth, and other vulnerable groups, including persons with disabilities, or those in need of medical attention. Nο Customers have been identified through the double materiality assessment with particular characteristics or for particular products or services that may be at greater risk of harm. Material risks and opportunities related to Customers Material risks and opportunities for the Group generally derive from impacts, dependencies or other factors, such as exposure to climate hazards or changes in regulation that address systemic risks. Dependencies arise from a reliance on consumers, such as that relating to reputational damage. Other factors refer to systemic factors; for instance, regulatory changes in the financial services sector. From a risk perspective, in the context of the double materiality assessment performed in 2024, the Group concluded that regarding consumers and end-users, in particular “Privacy”, “Access to (quality) information” and “Responsible marketing practices” risks are considered material in the short-, medium- and long-term for the Group. These risks arise from issues such as disclosure and data protection issues, unsuitable promotion practices, fiduciary breaches, product suitability issues or inadequate disclosure of product terms. The root cause for the risk manifestation lies on the Bank’s own operations (most typically due to potential failures of internal controls established to prevent such risks), with risks deriving from external factors, including regulatory changes, in case of the Bank’s processes fail to respond which could potentially result in significant financial losses. Therefore, the risks related to privacy, access to (quality) information, and responsible marketing practices are not dependent with impacts of any particular group of Customers. It is noted that through the double materiality assessment process no material opportunities have been identified related to the consumers and end-users.

[S4-2] Processes for engaging with consumers and end-users about impacts The Group’s stakeholder engagement approach is founded on the principles of transparency, inclusivity, and accountability, ensuring that its sustainability efforts align with stakeholder expectations and values. Alpha Bank S.A. aims to maintain ongoing dialogue and collaboration with these stakeholders to understand and address their expectations, needs, concerns, and requests as much as possible. Recognizing the diversity among its stakeholders, the Bank has developed tailored engagement and communication strategies to meet the unique needs and preferences of its consumers and end-users.

For information on the types of communication and engagement with customers, please refer to [SBM-2] Interests and views of stakeholders. Operational responsibility for ensuring the accomplishment of engagement and outcomes The Head of Customer Service Division is the most senior role that has operational responsibility for ensuring that this engagement occurs. The Division’s primary objective is to ensure customer satisfaction and deliver high-quality products and services. To achieve this, the Division actively gathers input through customer surveys, relationship managers, and by analyzing data from the Bank’s digital platforms to understand BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 139 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT consumer behavior and preferences. The insights gathered from these engagement activities are used to inform the Bank’s policies, practices, and product development, ensuring that customer expectations and concerns are addressed effectively. Effectiveness of the Customer engagement The effectiveness of the engagement with consumers and/or end-users is evidenced by identifying specific matters through workshops, surveys with specific clients, and feedback received through the existing channels for consumers to raise concerns and integrating their expectations and needs in informing and initiating new initiatives, products and services. It is mentioned that no specific process with particular steps for engaging and for gaining insight into the perspectives with consumers and/or end-users who may be particularly vulnerable to impacts (for example, people with disabilities, children, etc.) and/or marginalized consumer groups is in place. The general approach for consumer engagement applies to all consumers of the Group’s products and services. Please refer to [GOV-1] The role of the administrative, management and supervisory bodies to see the relevant responsibilities on the organizational structure. [S4-3] Processes to remediate negative impacts and channels for consumers and end-users to raise concerns It is noted that no negative material impact to Customers has been identified through the double materiality assessment conducted in 2024. However, in the event of negative impacts to its Customers, the Bank has established specific mechanisms and processes for contributing to the remedy of them. Any actions that might have caused to the Customers, may be reported through the Whistleblowing mechanism, available on the website. The Whistleblowing Policy ensures that anonymity of the Whistleblower that utilizes the mechanism, will be properly protected in order to avoid any possible negative consequences, such as threats or attempts of retaliation, or discrimination or any other form of unfair treatment. Submitted reports are communicated only to predefined persons, the number of which is narrowed to those responsible for carrying the investigation and are entitled to act in discretion and confidentiality. By respecting the above would also result in protecting the identity of the reported persons. Please see the [G1-1] Business conduct policies and corporate culture. In addition, through the “Notification on the Processing of Personal Data” Group Companies where GDPR is applicable inform their Customers on how their personal data is processed by the organization or third parties on its behalf and on how to exercise their rights as per the GDPR. Available on their website and intranet, the "Notification on the Processing of Personal Data", also details the purpose, sources, recipients, storage duration, and contact information regarding Data Controller and Data Protection Officer. Furthermore, special privacy notices are provided to Natural Persons whenever necessary. Furthermore, a Support Centre has been established to address customer grievances. Under this mechanism, the Bank has a Customer Service Call Centre, Merchants Customer Service Call Centre, and direct lines for different business units/subsidiaries. The main call center directs to Alpha Bank S.A. with individual contact numbers listed for the Group’s services at Alpha Real Estate S.A., Generali, Alpha Leasing, AlphaTrade, and Alpha Mutual Funds. Complaints are managed by the Customer Service Division of Alpha Bank. It tracks and monitors issues raised and addressed via the implementation of a Contact Form on the Bank’s website and listed contact numbers. The Bank aims to revert to customer issues with a clear and substantiated reply in accordance with the applicable Regulatory and Legal provision. Additionally, the Customer Service Division employs a Quality Management System based on the ISO 9001 standard. Upon receiving a complaint, the Customer Service Division undergoes a 4-step process: 1) Acknowledgement of receipt of the case 2) Investigation with cooperation of the competent Units of the Bank 3) Resolution of the issue 4) Customer response If the customer disagrees with the proposed resolution or reply, they are provided with the option to decline the proposed resolution. In that event, the consumer may revert to the Hellenic Financial Ombudsman (the contact information of which is provided on the Group’s website). All the above information is provided on the Bank’s website, including the expected wait time and answers to Frequently Asked Questions. Customers are updated throughout the process using the contact details they provided (by SMS, phone, or letter). These processes have been implemented by the Bank without the participation of third-party mechanisms. The above processes refer to channels provided to Customers for raising their concerns, not only for the Bank’s activities, but as well for any activities provided to them from the Bank with cooperation of business partners (i.e. suppliers and other external parties). Currently, no particular assessment takes place for the effectiveness of the mechanisms and channels that the Group utilizes for its consumers to raise their concerns. However, Alpha Bank S.A. monitors and tracks the number of complaints submitted, independently of their nature. The number of complaints received from consumers and/or end-users during FY24 was 24,942. Customer usage of these channels as a means of providing feedback demonstrates that customers feel empowered to raise concerns and trust the mechanisms for resolution disclosed above. [S4-4] Taking action on material impacts on consumers and end-users, and approaches to managing material risks and pursuing material opportunities related to consumers and end-users, and effectiveness of those action BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 140 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The key actions that the Group performs to increase the positive impacts created to its Customers, are reflected through its SFF and refer to: • The development of Green and Sustainable financial products such as products for SME lending in emerging markets, Microfinance lending, Financing of construction, renovation and maintenance of houses destroyed or damaged by natural disasters, Adequate, safe and affordable housing for women, low-income and underserved population. • The integration of sustainability criteria into credit and loan approvals. The products are targeted especially to affected stakeholder groups, such as Females, Rural populations focusing on agricultural production and agricultural value chains, Excluded and/or marginalized populations, Financially, disadvantaged groups as referenced also in [S4-1] Policies related to customers. The SFF does not currently set a defined time horizon regarding the number of products aligned to it, but it has a long- term view. It currently applies in Greece for Alpha Bank S.A. with the aim to extend to the other Group companies over the next few years. Regarding the progress of the alignment, the SFF-aligned products are currently summarized in following categories: I. Dedicated-Purpose Social Loans: Fully directed loans toward projects or initiatives that align with the eligible social themes defined under Alpha Bank’s SFF. Examples include: • Affordable Housing Loans o Loans provided to low-income or vulnerable populations to enhance access to affordable and adequate housing. o Financing for social housing projects or housing cooperatives aimed at improving living conditions for marginalized groups. • Microfinance for Underserved Communities o Small-scale loans to individuals or micro-businesses owned by women, rural populations, or minority communities to enhance financial inclusion and economic empowerment. o These loans support small entrepreneurs in starting or expanding businesses in sectors such as agriculture, retail, and local services. • Loans for Education and Vocational Training o Financing for tuition fees or vocational training programs to improve employability, particularly for young individuals, disadvantaged communities, or those at risk of social exclusion. o Special education loans designed for students from low-income backgrounds. • Healthcare Infrastructure Loans o Loans to fund hospitals, clinics, or medical centers that provide essential health services to underserved populations. o Financing for mobile health units that reach rural or remote areas. • Sustainable Transport and Mobility Access Loans o Financing for projects that improve access to safe and affordable public transportation for low-income groups and people with disabilities. o Examples include funding for electric public transport systems in underserved areas or bike-sharing programs that promote inclusive mobility. • Loans for Social Enterprises and Nonprofits o Financing for social enterprises that address pressing societal needs, such as food insecurity, youth employment, or financial literacy programs. o Support for non-profit organizations developing community-based solutions for economic inclusion. II. Sustainability-Linked Loans: Loans that tie financing terms as interest rates to the achievement of predefined sustainability performance targets (SPTs). The Bank sets key performance indicators (KPIs) related to social-related goals; examples include: o Financial Inclusion for Banks and Microfinance Institutions o Workforce Diversity and Inclusion o Health and Well-Being o Education and Training for Employers o Digital Inclusion and Technology Access For ensuring that Responsible Marketing Practices and Access to Quality Information are in place, key actions include the existence of robust internal mechanisms for controls, processes that ensure ethical marketing communications, transparency, honesty, and compliance with regulatory standards. These processes ensure that for every advertising communication plan assessment is performed by the competent Divisions and, if required, by the Legal Services Units or by the Compliance Division, to ensure objectivity when providing information. This works to ensure that there is no negative ramification for Customers due to manipulation or misinformation as the above processes serve to mitigate any such outcome. Advertisements include all necessary details to inform the public. When space or time constraints prevent full disclosure (such as in TV or radio spots), the Bank provides its website (www.alpha.gr) or Call Center number for more information. These practices apply in Greece for Alpha Bank S.A., but similar practices are also established in other areas where the Group operates. In this respect, the Bank complies with the regulatory framework in force regarding transparency in providing information to contractual parties, precontractual information, advertising as well as the terms of contracts with its Customers. The above actions do not have a defined time horizon for completion, but govern continuously the Group operations. Regarding the progress of the actions, regular monitoring takes place to ensure that no incidents of non-compliance with regulatory framework and marketing practices have been occurred. Through continuous training programs for staff, the Bank prevents any potential negative impact, or realization of risk that concern Privacy - related incidents. The trainings improve the internal capacity building to enhance service quality and delivery, leading to increased customer satisfaction. Trainings are performed on an annual basis. This enhances the Group to serve its Customers effectively, ultimately contributing to stronger relationships with Customers and driving overall business success. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 141 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Regarding the identification and reaction to Cybersecurity and Information Security risks, employee awareness and training is a critical and continuous activity. In addition to the program for new employee induction to Group Cybersecurity and Information Security Framework principles, a sophisticated Cybersecurity Awareness Program is being structured at the beginning of each year and supported by an e-learning platform. During 2024, the annual Cyber Awareness Program was completed successfully, and new Cybersecurity and Information Security training modules were introduced. The main training objectives, the appropriate training strategy as well as the initial planning of the trainings are determined at this stage. Training content is updated regularly to maintain its relevancy and is adjusted to each role, within the Bank to achieve the necessary growth and development. The training program is reviewed during the year and may be modified according to new needs that may arise. The training plan includes specialized training and certifications for Managerial/Administration and Technical functions in Greece, and the other countries where the Group operates. Moreover, data protection training sessions are conducted throughout the year for all new Employees of the Bank. During 2024, the following sessions took place: • Control and Risk Culture: boosting awareness in data protection with specialized training sessions to appr. 420 Bank’s Branch Network Employees. • Data Protection Institutional Framework: training session with the participation of approximately 170 Group Employees in Greece that covered various data protection issues such as Artificial Intelligence, emerging regulatory obligations (e.g. DORA, NIS II) and third-party assessment. Data protection training sessions take place in Group Companies in Greece, Romania and Cyprus, where GDPR is applicable. The above actions are ongoing and thus, there is no timeframe of completion. The progress of these actions is regularly monitored to ensure that no severe incidents of non-compliance with regulatory framework takes place. For this reason, to support the implementation of the above, human resources are utilized and expected to continue to be utilized in the future time horizon such as through employee training and consulting services to empower Employees’ knowledge and skills for sustainable projects, and utilization of technological solutions, such as digital tools. Furthermore, it should be mentioned that the existing processes reassure not only that no material financial effects will affect the Bank but also that no material negative impacts will be created to its Customers. Due to the nature of the Group business activities (i.e. related to the financial services and products), the Group does not require any significant operational OpEx and/or capital expenditures CapEx that relate to the implementation of its actions towards the achievement of policy objectives and targets. New requirements are routinely addressed in the broader context of its ongoing operational enhancements and are in any case considered material. Actions to enable and provide remedy No negative material impact to consumers and end-users has been identified. However, the Group, through its policies, procedures and mechanisms has established certain actions that safeguard its consumers and ensure that negative impacts on them will be prevented and mitigated. These actions include the design of consumer-centric products that meet their needs, the existence of a robust Risk Management for credit assessment and prevention of fraudulent activities, the implementation of ethical business practices, and transparency of information, as well as building among its Employees a culture of corporate responsibility. Other customer-related initiatives In 2024, in collaboration with the largest recycling program in Greece, Alpha Bank S.A. supported Customers of the Bonus app with e-coupons for enhancing their accessibility to goods, while promoting recycling.

The collaboration between Bonus and “Green City”, actively supports recycling since it offers an extra benefit to Bonus Customers to recycle on a regular basis. More information can be found by visiting the website. In pursuit of its mission to increase Access to Finance, the Bank launched the myAlpha Documents service after the first half of 2023, in order to serve specific banking operations. To date, more than 3,000 requests from individuals and businesses have been served by utilizing the possibility of exchanging documents with the Bank's Branch Network and Central Services, with the majority of Customers who have used the service evaluating it positively. Most of the positive feedback focuses on the benefits of being able to exchange and sign files remotely 24/7, without requiring a store visit. The use of the service has saved more than 20,000 pages of documents that have been distributed digitally. Approach for identifying, taking actions and ensuring availability and effectiveness of processes to manage material impacts No negative material impact to Consumers and end-users has been identified. Cyber Risk Methodology BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 142 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The development and evolution of the Cyber Risk Methodology considers international standards and frameworks and is aligned with the Group Operational Risk Policy, while the assessments are further enhanced with information from data classification and Security evaluations (Penetration Tests, Vulnerability Assessments). The Cybersecurity and Information Security Business Area directly supports Business Areas and Group Subsidiaries in conducting Information Classification and Cybersecurity and Information Security Risk Assessments (CISRA) for applications that support critical business processes including cloud-based applications, as well as conducting the coordination and monitoring of the execution of improvements and remediation of deviations. Continuous and real time identification of Cybersecurity vulnerabilities for critical systems is performed via the deployment and configuration of dedicated software on the corresponding infrastructure. The Alpha Bank Computer Security Incident Response Team (AB CSIRT) is certified as a full member of the global Forum of Incident Response and Security Teams (FIRST) and the Financial Services Information Sharing and Analysis Centre (FS-ISAC) and cooperates with the National CSIRT and the National Cybersecurity Authority to ensure continuous information exchange and response to cyber threats. During 2024, the AB CSIRT has dedicated significant time and effort towards fostering growth across various and critical Threat Management domains. The Cyber Threat Intelligence Framework has been formalized and included within the Group Cybersecurity and Information Security Framework. Identity Management (IDM) Governance as well as operational framework adaptations were implemented as part of continuous improvement. The IDM Governance module was analyzed and designed to be the central repository for user access review and recertification status. Application owners gain advanced visibility allowing them to perform user access review effortlessly. The Cybersecurity and Information Security Business Area manages the multilayered security infrastructures and mechanisms for the protection of the services provided (defense in depth). In 2024, replacements, upgrades and major improvements of critical Cybersecurity infrastructures were performed, including new SIEM solution and a new MSSP Provider.

It is noted that regarding Responsible Marketing Practices and Access to Quality Information, no specific measurable outcome-oriented target has been set. Regarding these sustainability matters minimum safeguards apply. The overarching goal of the Group is not to cause or contribute to significant harm of Customers through either its own operations or its business relationships.

The Code applies to all persons linked with Alpha Services and Holdings, Alpha Bank and its Subsidiaries through an employment contract and Board Members as well as individuals or legal entities connected to the Group or Group companies through a formal agreement e.g., contractors, consultants etc. In 2024, the Code of Conduct and Ethics was updated and enhanced to include a comprehensive description of the Group’s policies, to set out clear expectations regarding ethical behavior, a strong risk management culture, and compliance with the applicable regulatory and legislative framework. More information may be found in [S1-1] Policies related to own workforce regarding the policy update.

Worth mentioning that in 2024, the new Code of Conduct and Ethics was transposed into a theatrical play offering to the Bank Employees in Greece an immersive learning experience on the Code’s key messages. 47 The Compliance Function, in conjunction with other Divisions of the Bank, is responsible for managing the risk of non-compliance with the applicable regulatory framework, in its role as a second line of defense and as part of the Internal Control System. In particular, it identifies, assesses and manages the risk to which the Bank may become exposed in connection with the applicable regulatory framework. BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 149 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The Group conducts internal audits to monitor compliance with the regulatory framework and has put in place specialized control and reporting systems, working closely with the competent Regulatory Authorities to combat money laundering and financial crime. In order to ensure compliance with the Policies, the Compliance Function conducts periodic monitoring and control exercises, enabling the Bank to identify business conduct irregularities and breaches. Depending on the severity of the incidents identified through this periodic monitoring and control, the Audit Committee will be informed. Regarding the at-risk functions, these are considered to be these functions that interact directly with Customers, both natural persons and legal entities; those that operate as part of the Alpha Bank Branch Network fall mostly under this category. [G1-3] Prevention and detection of corruption and bribery Whistleblowing Framework A robust Whistleblowing Framework has been in place for several years, enabling Employees, Customers and Suppliers, or other stakeholders who become aware of serious irregularities, omissions or offences, to report them in a reliable and confidential manner. The Whistleblowing Framework is the main monitoring and reporting mechanism available to both internal and external stakeholders to report potential incidents and allegations as those relate to the entirety of the Policies described herein (i.e. the Policy on the Prevention of Conflicts of Interest, the Code of Conduct and Ethics, Anti-money Laundering, Counter-Terrorist Financing, and the Anti-Bribery and Corruption Policy). The Bank has set reporting channels which are available and easily accessible to all Personnel, Customers, Suppliers and other stakeholders. Reports can either be submitted via phone, or via a dedicated e-mail or by post, directly to the Chief of Compliance. The reports can be submitted on an anonymous or eponymous basis. In all cases, the identity and anonymity of the whistleblower is protected. All reports are submitted to the Whistleblowing Committee, and, upon request of the Whistleblower, the report may also be discussed, by means of a physical meeting, with a member and the secretary of the Committee. The Members of the Committee are the Chief of Compliance, Internal Audit, Legal and HR – as such, separate from the chain of management involved in the specific matter. When a report is submitted to the Whistleblowing Committee, a series of actions are undertaken to ensure it is treated appropriately. For one, the Whistleblowing Committee carefully examines the report’s content to determine the existence of irregularities, omissions or offenses. In the case where those are present, the Committee will then refer the report for further investigation to the Internal Audit Business Area or for any further necessary actions to the competent Unit(s) of the Group Alpha Bank S.A., if required. Once these procedures are complete, the findings are referred back to the Whistleblowing Committee which will determine whether the issue has been resolved satisfactorily and if there is need for further investigation and referral of identified violations to the Management of the Bank. The Chair of the Committee submits, on a quarterly basis, an activity report, to inform the Audit Committee of the reports received and handled during the reported period and is always informed of any significant events on a timely basis. The Whistleblowing Policy is accessible for all Personnel through the intranet section and to Customers, Third Parties and external stakeholders through Alpha Bank’s website.

The policy has been approved by the BoD and reviewed annually, or earlier if necessary. It applies at a Group level by laying down specialized procedures and installing appropriate IT systems. Key elements of the AML/CFT policy are: • The ML/TF risk assessment which includes identification of ML/TF risk factors and ML/TF Risk assessment taking into account the level of inherent risk as well as factors of risk mitigation. • The implementation of Customer Due Diligence measures, including the identification and verification of the Customer's identity, and the identity of the beneficial owner, the creation of a financial/transactional profile and the scrutiny of all transactions or activities, and continuous monitoring. • The Customer’s periodic review with respect to ML/TF risk. • The reporting of the suspicious/unusual transactions when necessary. • The compliance with sanctions and restrictive measures against countries, persons or entities.

The Policy covers conflict of interests’ cases, either potential or confirmed. The Bank’s Employees may seek advice from the Compliance Division, in terms of assessing a potential conflict of interests’ case, as well as providing instructions on the appropriate remediation measures.

The Policy is supplemented by the “Suitability and Nomination Process for the Members of the Board of Directors”, which provides for the specific process to be followed, mainly by the CGSNC, to which accountability is attributed in this Policy. The Policy complies with the legislative and regulatory framework in force, including the relevant Joint ESMA/EBA “Guidelines on the assessment of the suitability of members of the management body and key function holders” (hereinafter the “ESMA/EBA Guidelines”), the Bank of Greece Executive Committee Act 224/21.12.2023 and the Εuropean Central Bank (ECB) Guide to fit and proper assessments as well as with European best practices in corporate governance. The objectives of the Policy are to: • Set general principles that provide guidance to the CGSNC and its Chair on selecting, vetting and proposing candidates to the Board of Directors as well as on the replacement and renewal of the Members of the Board of Directors. • Set criteria, including diversity criteria, for the selection and suitability assessment of the Board of Directors candidates. • Set criteria for the assessment of the ongoing individual suitability of the Members of the Board of Directors as well as of the collective suitability of the Board of Directors. • Establish a transparent, effective and time-efficient suitability assessment and nomination process. • Set out the communication channel with the competent authorities (i.e. Bank of Greece, ECB). • Set out how the assessment is documented. The Policy and its implementation are monitored and reviewed annually by the CGSNC, approved by the Board of Directors and submitted for approval to the General Meeting of Shareholders. Any amendments thereto are approved by the Board of Directors and in case they are material they are submitted for approval to the General Meeting of Shareholders. The Policy and every material amendment thereto enters into force from the approval thereof by the General Meeting of Shareholders. Material are the amendments that provide for derogations or significantly change the content of the Suitability and Nomination Policy, in particular as to the applied general principles and criteria. In preparing, amending or reviewing the Policy, the CGSNC and the Board of Directors shall take into account recommendations or findings of other Board Committees and Functions such as Legal Services, Human Resources SUITABILITY AND NOMINATION POLICY FOR THE MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS F.7 BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 192 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT and/or Internal Control Functions. Internal Control Functions should provide effective input for the review of the Policy in accordance with their roles. Notably, the Compliance Unit should analyze how the Policy affects the Company’s compliance with legislation, regulations, internal policies and procedures, and should report all identified compliance risks and issues of non-compliance to the Board of Directors through the CGSNC. The CGSNC will propose candidates whom it deems suitable to become Members of the Board of Directors according to the criteria set out in the applicable regulatory framework and in this Policy. Suitability is determined in relation to the Policy’s criteria for candidates (fit and proper and general suitability) and current composition needs. For the purposes of this Policy, it is defined as the degree to which an individual is deemed to have good repute and to have, individually and collectively with the other Directors/Members, adequate knowledge, skills and experience to perform his/her duties with a clear understanding of the Company’s culture, values and overall strategy. Suitability also covers the honesty, integrity and independence of mind of each Member and his/her ability to commit sufficient time to perform his/her duties. Further to the above, where any Members of the Board of Directors do not fulfill the requirements set out, the competent authorities, in the framework of the Single Supervisory Mechanism, shall have the power to remove such Members from the Board of Directors. The CGSNC, within the aforementioned context, shall consider the suitability of the Members of the Board of Directors on a periodic basis, utilizing Board Review assessments and any other pertinent information available. In order to be considered as a suitable candidate by the Board of Directors and its CGSNC, the prospective nominee must: meet the fit and proper requirements, meet individual and collective suitability requirements, have no systematic conflict of interests with the Company, have no impediments according to the relevant legislation and be able to devote sufficient time to the Board of Directors. All nominees must submit a declaration that they meet the relevant requirements. The Suitability and Nomination Policy for the Members of the Board of Directors is posted on the Company’s website (https://www.alphaholdings.gr/en/Holdings/esg-and-sustainability/advocating- sound-governance-practices/management/codes-and-policies). The Company considers the high quality of its Non-Executive and Independent Non-Executive Members of the Board of Directors as a fundamental element of its culture and long-term performance, since good succession planning: • ensures a continuous process to identify suitable candidates who are ready to take over when Members leave the Board on various occasions; • achieves continuity to deliver strategic plans by aligning the Company’s human resources with business planning; • demonstrates a commitment to recruiting and promoting high-performing Members. The Policy and Process for the Succession Planning of Non-Executive and Independent Non-Executive Members of the Board of Directors is an internal document that sets out the framework for the succession planning of the POLICY AND PROCESS FOR THE SUCCESSION PLANNING OF NON- EXECUTIVE AND INDEPENDENT NON- EXECUTIVE MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS SUITABILITY AND NOMINATION POLICY FOR THE MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS F.8 BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 193 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT aforementioned Members and forms an integral part of the Company’s Suitability and Nomination Policy for the Members of the Board of Directors. It is in line with the Greek and the European regulatory requirements and best practice standards, including, among others, the Basel Committee Corporate Governance Principles for Banks, the ESMA/EBA Guidelines, as in force, the Bank of Greece Executive Committee Act No. 224/21.12.2023 on the assessment of suitability for the taking up of a post as a member of the Board of Directors and as a key function holder and the Hellenic Corporate Governance Code. The Policy is validated during a succession planning meeting that concludes with the identification of successors, after a thorough discussion and analysis which takes into account “Suitability and Nomination Policy for the Members of the Board of Directors” and the findings of the annual evaluation. The Policy aims at ensuring each time the smooth and efficient operation of the Board of Directors of the Company. In particular, the objectives of the Policy are to: • Ensure the implementation of the Company’s strategy regarding leadership; • Ensure organizational sustainability through leadership continuity; • Strengthen the confidence of Investors, Regulators, Employees and other Stakeholders in the Company’s ability to safeguard and promote organizational continuity; • Establish principles, processes and role clarity to support smooth leadership transitions; • Mitigate the risks that may arise from disorderly changes in the smooth operation of the Board; • Ensure diversity and appropriate gender representation within the Board; • Ensure that the principle of equal opportunities is respected when implementing the succession planning process; • Provide guidance to the Board and to the CGSNC on the succession planning process of the Company’s Non-Executive and Independent Non-Executive Members in order to ensure their smooth and proper succession based on the Company’s Suitability and Nomination Policy and Process for the Members of the Board of Directors as well as on the respective legal and regulatory framework; • Identify the competency requirements of key positions and assess potential candidates; • Identify and nominate suitable candidates to fill vacancies which occur. Succession planning does not constitute a process of automatic nomination of identified successors when actual vacancies occur. It is, however, a key input to the selection process. Succession plans may be activated under (a) Medium-term planning for the orderly replacement of current Non- Executive Members and/or Independent Non-Executive Members and (b) Contingency planning for sudden and unforeseen events. The Chair of the Board of Directors is actively involved in the succession planning, in collaboration with the Corporate Governance, Sustainability and Nominations Committee (the “CGSNC”) and the Human Resources Unit of the Company. The CGSNC may request the assistance of an external specialist consultant, in accordance with the resources available to the Company for this purpose. POLICY AND PROCESS FOR THE SUCCESSION PLANNING OF NON- EXECUTIVE AND INDEPENDENT NON- EXECUTIVE MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 194 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT With the support of the CGSNC, the Board of Directors annually assesses its effectiveness and that of its Committees. From time to time and at least once every three years, the Board of Directors may appoint external consultants to facilitate a more in-depth review of its effectiveness. The collective evaluation of the Members of the Board of Directors and its Committees, for the year 2024, was supported by an external firm expert in board effectiveness. Individual interviews with all Board Members and selected Executives were conducted, focusing on Strategy, Purpose and Role of the Board, Management and Board Succession, Board Culture, Operating Mechanisms and Board Committees. The Board Self-Evaluation, carried out through an online questionnaire completed by all Board Members and selected Executives, focused on a variety of topics concerning Strategy, Stakeholders, Board Dynamics, Diversity and Inclusion, Board Composition, Operating Mechanisms, Board Succession, Purpose and Sustainability, Talent Management, Relationship with the Executive Team, Digital Readiness, Disrupt and Challenge, as well as Agility. The survey captured dimensions most relevant for high-performing boards, highlighting collective strengths and development areas of the Board. Alpha Bank's key strengths included a robust and diverse board composition, an open and collegiate board environment, and improved board operations. The key recommendations were to revisit the balance and alignment between the Executive and Non-Executive Members, reviewing the approach to Alpha Bank’s strategy and spending more time on strategic discussions, as well as revisiting board operations to elevate the quality of board papers and presentations. The Individual Evaluation of the Members of the Board of Directors for the year 2024 was conducted by the Chair of the Board of Directors. Following the recent evaluation of the Board of Directors, an in-depth assessment of our collective suitability has been conducted. This assessment focuses on our collective knowledge, skills, and experience, in accordance with the ESMA/EBA Guidelines, with the valued support of the CGSNC. Each Board Member engaged in this process by completing an Individual Self-Assessment questionnaire, designed around the criteria specified in the ESMA/EBA Guidelines. The Chair of the Board of Directors has meticulously reviewed these self-assessments and has compiled the Collective Suitability Matrix, taking into account various critical aspects such as governance, risk management, compliance, audit, management, strategy, decision-making, basic theoretical knowledge, and past experience. Moreover, recognizing that the EBA Guidelines Matrix is a dynamic tool, new sections have been incorporated to reflect the evolving banking landscape and the needs arising from our Company’s Business Plan. Based on the approved Collective Suitability Matrix, it has been resolved that our Board would greatly benefit from the inclusion of new Members who possess extensive knowledge and experience in the Greek market, ESG, IT and Digital, and who are strategic thinkers. EVALUATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS ASSESSMENT OF THE BOARD MEMBERS’ COLLECTIVE SUITABILITY BASED ON THE ESMA/EBA GUIDELINES F.9 F.10 BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 195 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The Board of Directors, in accordance with its obligations under paragraph 1 of Article 4 of Law 4706/2020, assessed the implementation and effectiveness of the Company's Corporate Governance System with a reference date of December 31, 2024. The assessment, conducted with the support of external advisors, PricewaterhouseCoopers S.A., did not reveal any material weaknesses. The Independent Non-Executive Members of the Board of Directors should fulfill all the criteria for being Independent Non-Executive Members, in accordance with the Bank of Greece Executive Committee Act No. 224/21.12.2023, the relevant ESMA/EBA Guidelines, the CGSNC Charter, with Law 4706/2020 on Corporate Governance as well as with the Hellenic Corporate Governance Code of the Hellenic Corporate Governance Council. The fulfillment of the legal requirements as to the classification of a Member of the Board of Directors as an Ιndependent Μember is reviewed by the Board of Directors at least on an annual basis per fiscal year, and in any case prior to the publication of the Annual Financial Report which includes the relevant assertion. As part of our compliance requirements, the Independent Non-Executive Members are requested annually to complete and sign a Declaration affirming that they meet all criteria for being Independent Non-Executive Members. In addition, the Corporate Secretariat and Governance Policies Business Area has established a robust process to ensure these criteria are met. This includes obtaining copies of the Members’ criminal records on a quarterly basis. During 2024, in accordance with the internal process and procedures that involve, inter alia, a review by the competent Business Areas, relevant Declarations by the Independent Non-Executive Members, as well as assessment of all relevant information and data, the independence of the Board of Directors has been assessed internally, under the coordination of the Corporate Secretariat and Governance Policies Business Area. Our Board of Directors, with the support of the CGSNC, and taking into consideration the above, has reviewed the independence criteria and confirmed that the Independent Non-Executive Members, namely Dimitris C.

SHARES OWNED ON 31.12.2024 DESCRIPTION OF THE DIVERSITY POLICY APPLIED TO THE MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND EMPLOYEES BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 223 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT While the diversity of the Board of Directors is not a criterion for assessing the Members' individual suitability, it is a vital factor when selecting and evaluating Members of the Board. A diverse Board of Directors brings a broader range of experiences, knowledge, skills, and values, which enhances its overall functioning and effectively addresses the phenomenon of "groupthink." By fostering a more diverse Board, we can encourage independent opinions and constructive challenges during the decision-making process. The Policy applies not only to the selection procedures for the Board Members but also to the appointment of our Senior Management and Employees. The key objectives of this Policy are to support and promote diversity across all levels of our organization. We aim to engage a wide array of qualities and competencies when recruiting Board Members and Employees, ensuring a variety of views and experiences. This approach facilitates independent opinions and sound decision-making within the Board of Directors. Additionally, we are committed to ensuring appropriate gender representation within the Board of Directors and respecting the principle of equal opportunities during the selection process. This commitment extends to our Employees, guaranteeing equal treatment and opportunities for individuals of all genders. The objectives of our Policy are. first and foremost to support and promote diversity within our Board of Directors and Employees. This means engaging a broad set of qualities and competencies when recruiting. By doing so, we aim to achieve a variety of views and experiences, which we believe are crucial for facilitating independent opinions and sound decision-making within the Board. Moreover, we strive to ensure appropriate representation of all genders within the Board of Directors. This principle of equal opportunities is paramount when selecting Board Members. Similarly, we are dedicated to ensuring equal treatment and opportunities for Employees of different genders. Additionally, when setting diversity objectives, the Company considers diversity benchmarking results published by competent authorities, such as the European Banking Authority (EBA) or other relevant international bodies or organizations. This helps us align our goals with best practices and standards in the industry. Our Policy is approved by the Board of Directors and undergoes a review every two years by the Corporate Governance, Sustainability and Nominations Committee (CGSNC). The CGSNC may propose relevant amendments to the Board of Directors, as necessary. The Company embraces the benefits of having a diverse Board of Directors. It recognizes that diversity can help achieve maximum team performance and effectiveness, enhance innovation and creativity, and promote critical thinking and team cooperation within the Board. In this context, a diversified Board of Directors fosters constructive challenge and discussion on the basis of different points of view, while also contributing to the improvement of decision-making regarding strategies and risk-taking by encompassing a broader range of views, opinions, experience, perception, values and backgrounds, thus reducing the phenomena of “groupthink” and “herd behavior”. DESCRIPTION OF THE DIVERSITY POLICY APPLIED TO THE MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND EMPLOYEES BOARD OF DIRECTORS H.1 BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 224 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT A truly diversified Board of Directors allows and makes good use of differences in skills, regional and industry experience, background, abilities, qualifications, professional training, gender and other distinctions between the Members. Pursuant to the Suitability and Nomination Policy for the Members of the Board of Directors of the Company, all Board appointments, including the succession planning, are made in accordance with legal and regulatory requirements, ensuring an optimal balance, among others, of skills, experience, knowledge independence and high ethical standards, without any discriminations based on sex, race, color, ethnic or social origin, religion or belief, property, birth, disability, sexual orientation, gender, age, geographical provenance and/or educational and professional background. The above suitability and differentiation parameters should be taken into consideration in determining the best possible composition of the Board of Directors and, when possible, should be balanced appropriately. At least the following diversity aspects shall be taken into consideration for all Board appointments, without prejudice to the legislative and regulatory framework and to the Suitability and Nomination Policy for the Members of the Board of Directors of the Company: • Educational and professional background, skills and knowledge as well as experience in order to facilitate productive challenge and independent thinking, in accordance with the Suitability and Nomination Policy for the Members of the Board of Directors. • Gender: taking into consideration that different typical attitudes and behaviors can be observed in persons of different genders. • Age: considering that the time period in which a person has grown up influences his/her values, behavior and risk culture. • Geographical provenance: the region where a person has gained a cultural, educational or prior professional background. Diversity regarding geographical provenance ensures that the Board has a direct understanding of the culture, values, market specificities and legal framework present in the main business hubs that the Company is active in, and facilitates well-informed decision-making regarding the business strategy in those business and geographical areas. In reviewing the composition of the Board of Directors and in identifying suitable candidates for appointment, reappointment or during the succession planning, the CGSNC will: a. Consider the benefits of all aspects of diversity, including, but not limited to, those described above, in order to enable the Board of Directors to discharge its duties and responsibilities effectively. b. Consider candidates on the basis of merit and objective criteria pursuant to the strategic objectives of the Company, the legislative and regulatory requirements and with due consideration of diversity in the Board of Directors. According to the legal and regulatory framework, as described in the “Suitability and Nomination Policy for the Members of the Board of Directors”, the CGSNC assesses or re-assesses on an ongoing basis, and at least annually, on the basis of the “Suitability and Nomination Process for the Members of the Board of Directors”, the collective and individual suitability of the Members of the Board of Directors. As part of this annual evaluation of the effectiveness of the Board of Directors and its Committees, the CGSNC will consider the adequate balance of all aspects of suitability and diversity, including, but not limited to, those described above. The CGSNC will discuss and agree annually upon all measurable objectives for achieving diversity in the Board of Directors. In the event that any diversity objectives or targets have not been met, the CGSNC shall explain the relevant reasons and the measures to be taken, in order to ensure that the diversity objectives and targets will be met. BOARD OF DIRECTORS BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL MANAGEMENT REPORT AS AT 31.12.2024 225 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The CGSNC reviews and monitors regularly the effectiveness of the Policy and makes relevant recommendations to the Board of Directors. Furthermore, it reviews regularly the proportion of women who are employed by the Company as a whole, in senior management positions and in the Board of Directors. According to the Diversity Policy, the Board of Directors’ actual target is that the percentage of the less represented gender in the Board would reach at least 30% in the next three years, while always considering industry trends and best practices. In light of the above, the Board of Directors’ target has been achieved, i.e. at a percentage of 38.5%. All the candidates for the Board of Directors shall be assessed based on the same criteria, irrespective of gender, since the eligible Members for the Board of Directors must fulfill all the conditions set in relation to their qualifications. In this context, all genders shall have equal opportunities to be nominated under the condition that they fulfill all the other prerequisites in accordance with the Suitability and Nomination Policy for the Members of the Board of Directors of the Company. The Company shall not nominate Members of the Board of Directors with the sole purpose of increasing diversity to the detriment of the functioning and suitability of the Board of Directors collectively or at the expense of the suitability of individual Members of the Board of Directors.

No ΑΙ 666591 INFORMATION ARTICLE 10 OF LAW 4961/2022 "EMERGING INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES, STRENGTHENING DIGITAL GOVERNANCE, AND OTHER PROVISIONS" TRANSLATION FROM THE ORIGINAL IN THE GREEK LANGUAGE Independent Auditor’s Limited Assurance Report on Alpha Services and Holdings S.A.’s Sustainability Statement INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S LIMITED ASSURANCE REPORT To the Shareholders of Alpha Services and Holdings S.A. We have conducted a limited assurance engagement on the consolidated Sustainability Statement of Alpha Services and Holdings S.A. (henceforth the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (collectively the “Group”), included in section “FY24 Sustainability Statement” of the consolidated Board of Directors’ Management Report (the “Sustainability Statement”), for the period from 01/01/2024 to 31/12/2024. Limited assurance conclusion Based on the procedures we have performed, as described below in the “Scope of Work Performed” paragraph, and the evidence we have obtained, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that: • the Sustainability Statement has not been prepared in all material respects, in accordance with Article 154 of Law 4548/2018, as amended and in force by Law 5164/2024, based on which, Article 29(a) of EU Directive 2013/34 was transposed into Greek legislation, • the Sustainability Statement does not comply with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (hereinafter “ESRS”), in accordance with EU Regulation 2023/2772 of the Commission of 31 July 2023, and EU Directive 2022/2464 of the European Parliament and the Council of 14 December 2022, • the process carried out by the Group to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities (the “Process”), as set out in Note “Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities” of the Sustainability Statement, does not comply with the “Disclosure Requirement IRO-1- Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities” of ESRS 2 “General Disclosures”, • the disclosures included in section “Disclosures pursuant to Article 8 of Regulation 2020/852 (Taxonomy Regulation)” of the Sustainability Statement, do not comply with Article 8 of EU Regulation 2020/852. This assurance report does not extend to information in respect of earlier periods. Basis for conclusion We conducted a limited assurance engagement in accordance with International Standard on Assurance Engagements 3000 (Revised), “Assurance Engagements Other than Audits or Reviews of Historical Financial Information” (“ISAE 3000”). The procedures in a limited assurance engagement vary in nature and timing from, and are less in extent than for, a reasonable assurance engagement. Consequently, the level of assurance obtained in a limited assurance engagement is substantially lower than the assurance that would have been obtained had a reasonable assurance engagement been performed. Our responsibilities are further described in the “Auditor’s Responsibilities” section of our report. Deloitte Certified Public Accountants S.A. 3a Fragkokklisias & Granikou str. Marousi Athens GR 151-25 Greece Tel: +30 210 6781 100 www.deloitte.gr Professional Ethics and Quality Management We are independent of the Company, during the whole period of this engagement and we have complied with the requirements of the International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA Code), the ethical and independence requirements of Law 4449/2017 and EU Regulation 537/2014. Our audit firm applies the International Standard on Quality Management 1 (ISQM 1), “Quality Management for firms that perform audits or reviews of financial statements, or other assurance or related services engagements” and accordingly, maintains a comprehensive system of quality management, including documented policies and procedures regarding compliance and ethical requirements, professional standards and applicable legal and regulatory requirements. We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our conclusion. Management’s responsibilities regarding the Sustainability Statement Management of the Company is responsible for designing and implementing a process to identify the information reported in the Sustainability Statement, in accordance with ESRS, and for disclosing this Process in Note “Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities” of the Sustainability Statement. This responsibility includes: • Understanding the context in which the Company’s and the Group’s activities and business relationships take place and developing an understanding of its affected stakeholders. • The identification of the actual and potential impacts (both negative and positive) related to sustainability matters, as well as risks and opportunities that affect, or could reasonably be expected to affect, the Company’s and the Group’s financial position, financial performance, cash flows, access to finance or cost of capital over the short, medium, or long-term. • The assessment of the materiality of the identified impacts, risks and opportunities related to sustainability matters by selecting and applying appropriate thresholds, and • Making assumptions that are reasonable in the circumstances. Management of the Company is further responsible for the preparation of the Sustainability Statement, in accordance with Article 154 of Law 4548/2018, as amended and in force by Law 5164/2024, based on which, Article 29(a) of EU Directive 2013/34 was transposed into Greek legislation. In this context, Management’s responsibility includes: • Compliance of the Sustainability Statement with ESRS. • Preparing the disclosures in section “Disclosures pursuant to Article 8 of Regulation 2020/852 (Taxonomy Regulation)” of the Sustainability Statement, in compliance with Article 8 of EU Regulation 2020/852. • Designing implementing and maintaining such internal controls that management determines are necessary to enable the preparation of the Sustainability Statement is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and • The selection and application of appropriate sustainability reporting methods and making assumptions and estimates about individual sustainability disclosures that are reasonable in the circumstances. The Audit Committee of the Company is responsible for overseeing the sustainability reporting process of the Group. Inherent limitations in preparing the Sustainability Statement As discussed in Notes “Entity-Specific Information” and “CONTRIBUTION TO HEALTHY ECONOMIES” in the Sustainability Statement, sustainability information for which the applicable criteria are self-defined, the nature of this sustainability information, and absence of consistent external standards, allow for different, but acceptable, measurement methodologies to be adopted which may result in variances between entities. The adopted measurement methodologies may also impact the comparability of sustainability matters reported by different entities and from year to year within an entity as methodologies develop. In reporting forward-looking information in accordance with ESRS, Management of the Company is required to prepare the forward-looking information on the basis of disclosed assumptions about events that may occur in the future and possible future actions by the Company and the Group. The actual outcome is likely to be different since anticipated events frequently do not occur as expected. As discussed in Note “ESRS E1 CLIMATE CHANGE”, the sustainability information includes, among others, information based on climate-related scenarios, that is subject to inherent uncertainty regarding the likelihood, timing or effect of possible future physical and transitional climate-related impacts. Our work covered the subject matters listed in the section “Scope of Work Performed” for obtaining limited assurance and is based on the procedures included in the Program, as defined in this section of our report. Our work does not constitute an audit or review of historical financial information in accordance with the applicable International Standards on Auditing or International Standards on Review Engagements, and for this reason, we do not provide any other assurance beyond what is stated in the section “Scope of Work Performed”. Auditor’s responsibilities This limited assurance report has been prepared based on the provisions of Article 154C of Law 4548/2018 and Article 32A of Law 4449/2017. Our responsibility is to plan and perform the limited assurance engagement to obtain limited assurance about whether the Sustainability Statement is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error and to issue a limited assurance report that includes our conclusion. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material when, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the Sustainability Statement as a whole. As part of a limited assurance engagement in accordance with ISAE 3000, we exercise professional judgment and maintain our professional skepticism throughout the engagement. Our responsibilities in respect of the Sustainability Statement, in relation to the Process, include: • Performing risk assessment procedures, including obtaining an understanding of internal controls relevant to the engagement, to identify risks in the Process applied by the Group to identify the information reported in the Sustainability Statement does not address the applicable requirements of the ESRS, but not for the purpose of providing a conclusion on the effectiveness of the Process, including the outcome of the Process and • Designing and performing procedures to evaluate whether the Process to identify the information reported in the Sustainability Statement is consistent with the Company’s description of its Process as disclosed in Note “Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities”. In addition, we are responsible for: • Performing risk assessment procedures, including obtaining an understanding of internal control relevant to the engagement, to identify disclosures where material misstatements are likely to arise, whether due to fraud or error, but not for the purpose of providing a conclusion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal controls. • Designing and performing procedures responsive to disclosures in the consolidated Sustainability Statement, where material misstatements are likely to arise. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. Scope of the Work Performed Our work involves performing procedures and obtaining audit evidence to form a limited assurance conclusion and are limited to the procedures listed in the limited assurance program issued by the Hellenic Accounting and Auditing Supervisory Oversight Board according to its 262/22.01.2025 decision (hereinafter the “Program”), developed for the purpose of issuing of a limited assurance report on the Group’s Sustainability Statement. Our procedures were designed for the purpose of obtaining a limited level of assurance to support our conclusion but not for obtaining evidence that would be required to provide a reasonable level of assurance.

TRUE TRANSLATION FROM THE ORIGINAL IN GREEK INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT To the Shareholders of Alpha Services and Holdings S.A. Report on the Audit of the Separate and Consolidated Financial Statements Opinion We have audited the separate and consolidated financial statements of Alpha Services and Holdings S.A. (the Company), which comprise the separate and consolidated balance sheet as at 31 December 2024, and the separate and consolidated income statement, statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended and the notes to the financial statements, including material accounting policy information. In our opinion, the accompanying separate and consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Alpha Services and Holdings S.A. and its subsidiaries (the Group) as at 31 December 2024, their financial performance and their cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs), as endorsed by the European Union. Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) as they have been incorporated into the Greek legislation. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the “Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Separate and Consolidated Financial Statements” section of our report. We have been independent of the Company and the Group during the whole period of our appointment, in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code), as incorporated into the Greek legislation and the ethical requirements in Greece, relevant to the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements. We have fulfilled our ethical requirements in accordance with the applicable legislation and the abovementioned Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Key Audit Matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements of the current year. These matters and the assessed risks of material misstatements were addressed in the context of our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Deloitte Certified Public Accountants S.A. 3a Fragkokklisias & Granikou str. Marousi Athens GR 151-25 Greece Tel: +30 210 6781 100 www.deloitte.gr Key audit matters How our audit addressed the Key audit matters Allowance for expected credit losses (ECL) for loans at amortized cost Loans at amortized cost of the Group amounted to € 38,638 million for the Group as at 31 December 2024 (31.12.2023: € 35,916 million) and allowance for expected credit losses amounted to € 601 million, as at 31 December 2024 (31.12.2023: € 842 million). Measurement of ECL on loans at amortized cost is considered a key audit matter as the determination of assumptions used, involves critical management judgments and accounting estimates with high level of subjectivity, and complexity. The most significant management judgements and accounting estimates, relate to: • The criteria used for the staging assessment of loans at amortized cost (Significant Increase in Credit Risk –SICR and Unlikeness to Pay –UTP). • The determination of credit risk parameters, such as Loss Given Default (LGD), Probability of Default (PD) and the Exposure at Default (EAD) as well as the modelling assumptions and data used to build and run the credit risk models (the “models”). • Assumptions of expected future cash flows of individually assessed credit impaired exposures, including assessment approach, valuation of collaterals, and the time to liquidate the collaterals. • The forecast of each significant forward-looking information (growth rates, unemployment, inflation and real estate indices) used by management in the models, and the probability weightings used to estimate the impact of multiple economic scenarios. • The Identification and valuation of post model adjustments made by management to include any impact not captured by the models. Management has provided further information about accounting policies for determining the ECL on loans at amortized cost and management of credit risk in noted 1.2.13, 1.3, 11, 23 and 47.1 to the consolidated financial statements. Based on our risk assessment and following a risk-based approach, we have evaluated the impairment methodologies applied and assumptions made by management in relation to this key audit matter, and we performed, inter alia, the following audit procedures: • With the support of our financial risk modelling specialists where appropriate, we assessed the design and implementation of relevant internal controls over the ECL estimate including the controls around: - the incorporation of the model’s outcome within the relevant systems and the calculation of the ECL estimate - the significant assumptions used in the models - model monitoring and model validation - governance and review of post model adjustments - the determination of staging criteria and staging allocation - the selection of the significant forward-looking information used in the models - the selection of macro-economic scenarios and probability weightings. - accuracy and completeness of data used in models. For specific of the above controls we further tested whether they operated effectively. • We assessed the design and implementation of relevant controls over the ECL measurement of credit impaired exposures assessed on an individual basis, including controls around the determination of the appropriate approach, the valuation and time to liquidation of collaterals as well as the estimation of the expected future cash flows and for selected controls we further tested whether they operated effectively . • With the support of our financial risk modelling specialists we: - assessed the appropriateness of the Group’s IFRS9 impairment policies and methodologies; - assessed the appropriateness of the criteria used to allocate loans to stages in accordance with IFRS9. This included an evaluation of the criteria set by management for determining the Significant Increase in Credit Risk (SICR) or the Unlikeness to Pay (UTP) trigger and other criteria used for staging allocation. On a sample basis, assessed the timely identification of SICR, UTP and other criteria used for staging allocation; - inspected the model codes (development) and assessed the appropriateness of the significant credit risk parameters (i.e. Loss Given Default-LGD, Probability of Default –PD, Exposure at Default –EAD), used in the models; Key audit matters HOW OUR AUDIT ADDRESSED THE KEY AUDIT MATTERS Allowance for expected credit losses (ECL) for loans at amortized cost (continued) - assessed the validation reports prepared by management through reperformance of certain validation metrics; - on a sample basis tested the mathematical accuracy of the ECL estimate through recalculation; - assessed the reasonableness and appropriateness of the significant forward-looking information, used in the models by comparing them to external market sources. • We further performed substantive procedures to test the accuracy and completeness of critical data used in the models by agreeing a sample of ECL calculation data points to source systems or documentation. • On a sample basis we assessed whether, the approach used in the measurement of impairment for the individually assessed credit impaired exposures is appropriate, and we tested the reasonableness of significant assumptions used, including valuation of collaterals (where we also made use of our real estate specialists), time to liquidate collaterals, and the estimation of the discounted future cash flows. • We assessed the accuracy and completeness of post model adjustments, made by management in order to incorporate the impact of the uncertainty in the economic environment in specific loans, not captured by the models. In addition, we assessed any contradictory evidence and performed retrospective review. Given the complexity and granularity of the related disclosures, we assessed their completeness and accuracy in accordance with the provisions of the relevant accounting standards. Key audit matters How our audit addressed the Key audit matters Fair Value Measurement and Classification of Investments in UniCredit Romania and Alpha Bank Romania in the context of Project Unicorn In the context of Project Unicorn, on 4 November 2024, the Group completed the sale of its 90.1% stake holding in Alpha Bank Romania to UniCredit S.p.A. As an exchange the Group received an amount of € 254 million in cash and 9.9% stake holding in UniCredit Romania. As of 31.12.2024 the Group has recognized in «Investments in associates and joint ventures” the 9.9% of its stake holding in Alpha Bank Romania and the acquired 9.9% of its stake holding in UniCredit Romania at their fair value of € 58 million and € 272 million, respectively. Fair value measurement and classification of the investments in UniCredit Romania and Alpha Bank Romania is considered a key audit matter, as the accounting treatment involves high degree of management judgement and significant accounting estimates. The most significant management judgements and accounting estimates, relate to: • Methods, assumptions, terms and market data used for the determination of the fair value of the two investments in Romania as of the date of the sale. • Assessment of the “significant influence” exercised by the Group on the aforementioned entities in order for management to determine the classification at initial recognition and the accounting treatment of these investments, in accordance with the relevant provisions of IFRS. Management has provided further information in notes 1.2.1, 1.3, 25 and 52 to the consolidated financial statements. Based on our risk assessment and following a risk-based approach, we have evaluated the judgments and assumptions made by management in relation to this key audit matter, and we performed, inter alia, the following audit procedures: • We assessed the design and implementation of the relevant internal controls over the completion of sale to UniCredit S.p.a.of the 90.1% of the Group stake holding in Alpha Bank Romania in the context of “Unicorn project”, including internal controls over the review and approval process of the completion of the sale transaction as well as over the classification and measurement of the investments in Alpha Bank Romania and UniCredit Romania. • We obtained the fair value exercise of UniCredit Romania, performed in the context of Project Unicorn by a third party and with the assistance of our fair value specialists, we assessed the reasonableness of the assumptions used, and appropriateness of the fair value method applied. In addition, we tested the accuracy of the data included in the calculations. • We assessed whether, management has properly measured and classified Group Investments (9.9% stake holding in UniCredit Romania and its 9.9% stake holding in Alpha Bank Romania), and in specific whether the Group exercise significant influence on each investment, are in accordance with the provisions of the relevant IFRS. In addition, we tested the accuracy and completeness of the relevant accounting journal entries. Key audit matters How our audit addressed the Key audit matters Recoverability of Deferred Tax Asset (DTA) The Group has recognized deferred tax assets of € 4,815 million as at 31 December 2024, (€ 4,978 million as at 31 December 2023). The recognition and measurement of the deferred tax asset is considered a key audit matter as it involves a high degree of management judgment and significant accounting estimates. The most significant judgements and estimates made by management for assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets include: • Revenue and Cost forecasts for the preparation of the annual budget and the 3 year business plan taking into account the impact of the Group’s strategic plan. • Forward looking information and management projections used to extend the period covered under the business plan to the time when the deferred tax asset can be utilized for tax purposes. • Adjustments required for the conversion of accounting profits to taxable profits. Management has provided further information about the deferred tax asset in notes 1.2.15, 1.3, 17 and 29 to the consolidated financial statements. Based on our risk assessment, we evaluated the method used to determine the amount of deferred tax asset recognized and examined the budgets prepared and significant assumptions made by management relating to the future taxable profits. Our examination included, inter alia, the following audit procedures where we also made use of our tax specialists: • We assessed the design and implementation of the relevant internal controls over the preparation and approval of the annual budget and the 3year business plan as well as over the forward looking information, including the internal controls over the significant assumptions, inputs, calculation and methodologies used for this purpose. • We compared prior years’ budgets to actual results, to evaluate the forecasting ability of management. • We compared the significant assumptions used by management in the DTA exercise with the approved budget and the 3 year business plan for consistency and assessed their reasonability by evaluating the underlying business strategies. • We assessed whether significant assumptions used beyond the business plan period were reasonable in the context of the long - term economic outlook. • With the support of our tax specialists, we assessed the appropriateness of the adjustments made by management to convert the forecasted accounting profits into tax profits, considering the tax legislation currently in force. We evaluated the accuracy and completeness of the related disclosures in accordance with the provisions of the relevant accounting standards. Information Technology General Controls and controls over financial reporting The Company’s and the Group’s financial reporting processes are highly dependent on Information Technology (“IT”) systems supporting automated accounting and reconciliation procedures, thus leading to a complex IT environment, pervasive in nature and in which a significant number of transactions are processed daily, across numerous locations. This is a key audit matter since it is important that controls over access security, cyber risks, system change control and datacenter and network operations, are designed and operate effectively to ensure complete and accurate financial records and information. Management has provided further information about General Information Technology Controls under the header “Internal Control System” in Section C of the Corporate Governance Statement. Based on our risk assessment, we have tested the design and operating effectiveness of General Information Technology Controls (GITCs) relevant for financial reporting. Our assessment included the evaluation of user access and the change management process over applications, operating systems and databases, as well as the evaluation of datacenter and network IT operations. In summary, our key audit activities included, among others, testing of: • User access provisioning and de provisioning process. • Privileged access to applications, operating systems and databases. • Periodic review of user access rights in Information Systems. • Change management process over applications, operating systems and databases (i.e. user request, user acceptance testing and final approval for promotion to production). • Datacenter and network operations. Other Information Management is responsible for the other information. The other information, included in the Annual Report prepared in accordance with Law 3556/2007, comprises the Board of Directors’ Management Report, referred to in the section “Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements” and the Statement by the Members of the Board of Directors, but does not include the separate and consolidated financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the separate and consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we will not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the separate and consolidated financial statements, or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement in this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the separate and consolidated financial statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the separate and consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRSs, as endorsed by the European Union, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of separate and consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the separate and consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s and the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company and the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. The Audit Committee (article 44 of Law 4449/2017) of the Company is responsible for overseeing the Company’s and Group’s financial reporting process. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the separate and consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs, as these have been incorporated into Greek legislation, will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these separate and consolidated financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, as these have been incorporated into Greek legislation, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the separate and consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s and Group’s internal control. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. • Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s and Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the separate and consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company and the Group to cease to continue as a going concern. • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the separate and consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the separate and consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. • Plan and perform the group audit to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business units within the Group as a basis for forming an opinion on consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and review of the audit work performed for the purposes of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence and communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to impair our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards applied. From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements of the current year and are therefore the key audit matters.

It is also noted that: • During the second quarter of the current year the accounting treatment of the AT1 interest was re-evaluated and as it was estimated that the payment of said interest constitutes in essence distribution of profits relevant income tax will be recognized in profit or loss at the time of interest payment. This treatment was applied retrospectively for the August 2023 and February 2024 payments of the instrument issued by the Bank (note 2). • During the third quarter of the current year, the terms of the agreements governing derivatives cleared in Central Counterparties through Clearing Members were reassessed and it was estimated that the IAS 32 offsetting criteria are met for derivative assets and liabilities arising from those agreements as well as for the related cash collateral exchanged. The change in the presentation of those financial instruments in order to be presented net in the balance sheet was applied retrospectively (note 2). The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for specific financial instruments measured at fair value either through profit or loss or through other comprehensive income. The financial statements are presented in Euro, rounded to the nearest million, unless otherwise indicated. Any differences between the amounts presented in the primary financial statements and the relevant amounts presented in the accompanying notes are due to rounding. 1.1.1 Going concern The financial statements as at 31.12.2024 have been prepared based on the going concern principle. For the application of this principle, the Board of Directors considered current economic developments and made estimates for the formation, in the near future, of the economic environment in which it operates. In this context, the Board of Directors assessed the following areas which are considered important during its assessment: Developments in the macroeconomic environment The macroeconomic environment is characterized by uncertainty, which is mainly caused by the following: • Geopolitical developments and inflationary pressures, and in particular the continuation and outcome of the war in Ukraine and the tensions in the Middle East and the Red Sea. Despite the recent ceasefire in Gaza, a possible re-escalation of the conflict between Israel and Iran could trigger a new energy crisis and consequently inflationary pressures, especially if Iranian oil facilities are affected. • The risks for the Greek economy arising from possible natural disasters or any impacts of climate change, such as the extreme weather events that have affected various regions of the country in recent years. • Political instability in major European countries and important trading partners of Greece such as France and Germany, as well as the effects of USA policy with the possible increase in trade protectionism, which are likely to have a negative impact on the external sector of the Greek economy in the coming years. However, despite the fact that the economic environment is characterized by uncertainty, the Greek economy is expected to remain resilient, achieving high GDP growth rates (between 2% and 2.5%) in the two years 2024-2025, supported by the continued strengthening of employment, tourism performance, the gradual normalization of inflationary pressures, the implementation of investments both within the framework of the Recovery and Resilience Fund and the Public Investment Program, as well as the expected increase in Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and exports. Liquidity The Group's liquidity levels are particularly satisfactory, as evidenced by the liquidity ratios (liquidity coverage ratio and net stable liquidity ratio) which remain at high levels and significantly exceed the regulatory limits set (note 47.3), the stress tests for liquidity purposes conducted internally, which demonstrate that the Bank remains viable in all scenarios, as well as the annual update of the Recovery Plan, completed in September 2024, which showed that the Bank is able to respond even to particularly adverse liquidity crisis scenarios. Finally, in 2024, the credit rating agency Moody's upgraded, among other things, the Bank's long-term senior debt rating to Investment Grade, confirming its potential to achieve higher sustainable profitability, while improving the resilience of its balance sheet. Capital Adequacy The Group, due to the strong profitability of the year and the successful completion of the planned bond issues, maintains a strong capital base from both a financial and regulatory perspective, while the MREL ratio provides an adequate buffer against the interim MREL requirements that must be met from 30.6.2025 (note 48). Strategic Plan Taking into account the actions taken in the context of the implementation of the Group's strategic plan as well as the fact that so far the goals that had been set have been achieved, a significant improvement in profitability and qualitative structure of the balance sheet is expected, as CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 254 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT well as the creation of capital, which ensure the availability of the required resources for the continuation of the Group's activities and its further development. Based on the above, the Board of Directors estimates that these financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. 1.1.2 Adoption of new standards and of amendments to existing standards The following are the new standards and the amendments to standards applied from 1.1.2024: Amendment to International Financial Reporting Standard 16 “Leases”: Lease liability in a sale and leaseback (Regulation 2023/2579/20.11.2023) On 22 September 2022, the International Accounting Standards Board amended IFRS 16 in order to clarify that, in a sale and leaseback transaction, the seller-lessee shall determine “lease payments” or “revised lease payments” in a way that he would not recognize any amount of the gain or loss that relates to the right of use retained. In addition, in case of partial or full termination of a lease, the seller-lessee is not prevented from recognizing in profit or loss any gain or loss resulting from this termination. The adoption of the above amendment had no impact on the financial statements of the Group. Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements”: Classification of liabilities as current or non- current (Regulation 2023/2822/19.12.2023) On 23.1.2020, the International Accounting Standards Board issued amendments to IAS 1 relating to the classification of liabilities as current or non-current. More specifically: • The amendments specify that the conditions which exist at the end of the reporting period are those which will be used to determine if the liability must be classified as current or non-current. • The amendments clarify that management expectations about events after the balance sheet date must not be taken into account. • The amendments clarify the situations that are considered settlement of a liability. The adoption of the above amendment had no impact on the financial statements of the Group since in it’s balance sheet liabilities are not classified as current and non-current. Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements”: Non-current liabilities with covenants (Regulation 2023/2822/19.12.2023) On 31.10.2022, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued an amendment to IAS 1 with which it provided clarifications regarding the classification as current or non-current of a liability that an entity has the right to defer for at least 12 months and which is subject to compliance with covenants. More specifically, it was clarified that only covenants with which an entity is required to comply on or before the reporting date affect the classification of a liability as current or non-current. The adoption of the above amendment had no impact on the financial statements of the Group since in it’s balance sheet liabilities are not classified as current and non-current. Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 7 “Statement of Cash Flows” and Amendment to the International Financial Reporting Standards 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures”: Supplier Finance Arrangements (Regulation 2024/1317/15.5.2024) On 25.5.2023, the International Accounting Standards Board amended IAS 7 and IFRS 7 for the purpose of providing disclosures regarding supplier finance arrangements. These are agreements that companies enter into with third party finance providers, who undertake to repay amounts the entities owe their suppliers. Then the entity will have to repay the third-party finance provider based on the terms of the agreement between them. Also, IFRS 7 was amended to include access to such agreements with third finance providers in the liquidity risk disclosures. The adoption of the above amendments had no impact on the financial statements of the Group. In addition, the European Union has adopted the following amendment to IAS 21 which is effective for annual periods beginning after 1.1.2024 and has not been early adopted by the Group. Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 21 “The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates”: Lack of exchangeability (Regulation 2024/2862/12.11.2024) Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2025 On 15.8.2023, the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to IAS 21 regarding currencies that lack exchangeability. The amendment clarifies how an entity should assess whether a currency is exchangeable and how it should determine a spot exchange rate when exchangeability is lacking. With the amendment disclosures are also added that enable users of financial statements to understand the impact of a currency that is not exchangeable. The Group is examining the impact from the adoption of the above amendment on its financial statements. In addition, the International Accounting Standards Board has issued the following standards and amendments to standards which have not been endorsed yet by the European Union and which have not been early applied by the Group. Amendment to International Financial Reporting Standard 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures” and to International Financial Reporting Standard 9 “Financial Instruments”: Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2026 On 30.5.2024 the International Accounting Standards Board issued amendments to IFRS 7 and IFRS 9 to address matters identified during the post-implementation review of IFRS 9 regarding classification and measurement of financial instruments. More specifically, the amendments clarify issues relating to the derecognition of a financial liability settled through electronic matter and the assessment of whether the cash flows of a financial asset are solely payments of principal and interest while they provide for disclosures for equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and contractual terms that could change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows on the occurrence of a contingent event. The Group is examining the impact from the adoption of the above amendments on its financial statements. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 255 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Amendment to International Financial Reporting Standard 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures” and to International Financial Reporting Standard 9 “Financial Instruments”: Contracts Referencing Nature-dependent Electricity Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2026 On 18.12.2024, the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to IFRS 9 to specify the factors that should be considered to determine whether contracts referencing nature-dependent electricity are within its scope and under what conditions a contract for nature dependent renewable electricity can be designated as a hedging instrument. IFRS 7 was also amended to include disclosures regarding such contracts. The Group is examining the impact from the adoption of the above amendments on its financial statements Amendment to International Financial Reporting Standard 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements” and to International Accounting Standard 28 “Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures”: Sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. Effective date: To be determined. On 11.9.2014 the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 in order to align the accounting treatment of a transaction of sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture The Group is examining the impact from the adoption of the above amendments on its financial statements. International Financial Reporting Standard 14 “Regulatory deferral accounts”. Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2016. On 30.1.2014 the International Accounting Standards Board issued IFRS 14. The new standard, which is limited-scope, addresses the accounting treatment and the disclosures required for regulatory deferral accounts that are maintained in accordance with local legislation when an entity provides rate-regulated goods or services. It is noted that European Union has decided not to launch the endorsement of this standard and to wait for the final standard. The above standard does not apply to the financial statements of the Group. International Financial Reporting Standard 18 “Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements” Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2027 On 9.4.2024 the International Accounting Standards Board issued IFRS 18. IFRS 18 replaces IAS 1 and sets out presentation and disclosure requirements for financial statements. To meet this objective, IFRS 18 introduces: • two new defined subtotals in the statement of profit or loss: operating profit and profit before financing and income taxes, • disclosures about management-defined performance measures (“MPM’s”), and • enhanced requirements for grouping of information (aggregation and disaggregation) in the financial statements. IFRS 18 requires that a company presents income and expenses in separate operating, investing and financing categories. The operating category consists of all income and expenses that are not classified in the investing, financing, income taxes or discontinued operations categories. The Group is examining the impact from the adoption of the above standard on its financial statements. International Financial Reporting Standard 19 “Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures”. Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2027 On 9.5.2024 the International Accounting Standards Board issued IFRS 19. IFRS 19 specifies reduced disclosure requirements that an eligible entity (it is subsidiary, does not have public accountability and has an ultimate or intermediate parent that publishes IFRS consolidated financial statements) is permitted to apply instead of the disclosure requirements in other IFRS Accounting Standards. The above standard does not apply to the financial statements of the Group. Annual Improvements – Volume 11 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2026 As part of the annual improvements project, the International Accounting Standards Board issued on 18.7.2024 non-urgent but necessary amendments to IFRS 1, IFRS 7, IFRS 9, IFRS 10 and IAS 7. The Group is examining the impact from the adoption of the above amendments on its financial statements. 1.2 Material accounting policies 1.2.1 Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the parent company Alpha Services and Holdings, its subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures. The financial statements used to prepare the consolidated financial statements have been prepared as at 31.12.2024 and the accounting policies applied in their preparation, when necessary, were adjusted to ensure consistency with the Group accounting policies. a. Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The Group takes into account the following factors, in assessing control: • power over the investee, • exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and • the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the investor’s return. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 256 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Power arises from currently exercisable rights that provide the Group with the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee. In a straightforward case, rights that provide power are derived from voting rights granted by equity instruments such as shares. In other cases, power results from contractual arrangements. The Group’s returns are considered variable, when these returns have the potential to vary as a result of the investee’s performance. Variability of returns is judged based on the substance of the arrangement, regardless of their legal form. The Group, in order to evaluate the link between power and returns, assesses whether it exercises its power for its own benefit or on behalf of other parties, thus acting as either a principal or an agent, respectively. If the Group determines that it acts as a principal, then it controls the investee and consolidation is required. Otherwise, control does not exist and there is no requirement to consolidate. In cases where the power over an investee arises from voting rights, the Group primarily assesses whether it controls the investee through holding more than 50% of the voting rights. However, the Group can have power even if it holds less than 50% of the voting rights of the investee, through: • a contractual arrangement between the investors and other vote holders, • rights arising from other contractual arrangements, • the size of the investor’s holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion of holdings of the other vote holders, • potential voting rights. In cases of structured entities where the voting rights relate to administrative tasks only and the relevant activities are directed by means of contractual arrangements (i.e. securitization vehicles or mutual funds), the Group assesses the existence of control based on the following: • the purpose of the entity and the contractual rights of the parties involved, • the risks to which the investee was designed to be exposed, the risks it was designed to pass on to the parties involved with the investee and the degree of exposure of the Group to those risks, • indications of a special relationship with the entity, which suggests that the Group has more than a passive interest in the investee. The Group, based on the above criteria, controls structured entities established for the securitization of loan portfolios. The Group reassess whether it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the elements of control. The financial statements of subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. The acquisition method is applied when the Group obtains control of other companies or units that meet the definition of a business. Application of the acquisition method requires identifying the acquirer, determining the acquisition date and measuring the consideration transferred, the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any non controlling interest in the acquiree, in order to determine the amount of goodwill or gain arising from the business combination. The consideration transferred is measured at fair value on acquisition date. The identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are initially recognised on acquisition date at their fair value, except from specific assets or liabilities for which a different measurement basis is required. Any non controlling interests are recognised at either fair value or at their proportionate share in the acquiree’s identifiable net assets, as long as they are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the entity’s net assets in the event of liquidation. Otherwise, they are measured at their acquisition date fair values. Any difference between: • the sum of the consideration transferred, the fair value of any previously held equity interest of the Group in the acquiree and the amount of any non – controlling interests, and • the net of the acquisition date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed, is recognised as goodwill if the above difference is positive or as a gain in profit or loss if the difference is negative. During the measurement period, the provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date are adjusted in order to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date and, if known, would have affected the measurement of the amounts recognized as of that date. These adjustments affect accordingly the amount of goodwill. The measurement period ends as soon as the information about facts and circumstances existed as of the acquisition date has been obtained. However, the measurement period shall not exceed one year from the acquisition date. When the Group’s interest in a subsidiary increases as a result of an acquisition, the difference between the consideration paid and the share of net assets acquired is recognized directly in retained earnings. Sales of ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in a loss of control for the Group are accounted for as equity transactions and the gain or loss arising from the sale is recognized directly in retained earnings. Intercompany transactions are eliminated, unless the transaction provides evidence of impairment of the asset transferred, in which case, it is recognized in the consolidated balance sheet. b. Associates Associates are entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control. Significant influence is generally presumed to exist when the Group holds, directly or indirectly, more than 20% of the share capital of the company concerned without having control or joint control, unless the ownership of more than 20% does not ensure significant influence, e.g. due to lack of representation of the Group in the company’s Board of Directors or due to the Group’s non-participation in the policy making process. Additionally, significant influence may exist when less than 20% of the share capital is held, when the Group participates in the process of formulating the company's policies through its participation in its Board of Directors and when, based on the shareholders' agreement, there is the possibility of exercising a veto on significant decisions. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The investment is initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter for the post acquisition change in the Group’s share of net assets of the associate. In case the losses according to the equity method CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 257 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT exceed the investment in ordinary shares, they are recognized as a reduction of other elements that are essentially an extension of the investment in associate. The Group’s share of the associate’s profit or loss and other comprehensive income is separately recognized in the income statement and in the statement of comprehensive income, accordingly. c. Joint ventures The Group applies IFRS 11 which deals with the accounting treatment of interests in joint arrangements. All joint arrangements in which the Group participates and has joint control are joint ventures, which are accounted for by using the equity method. A detailed list of all Group subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, as well as the Group’s ownership interest in them, is provided in note 44. 1.2.2 Operating Segments Operating segments are determined and measured based on the information provided to the Executive Committee of the parent Company of the Group, which is the body responsible for the allocation of resourses between the Group’s operating segments and the assessment of their performance. Based on the above, and given the Group’s administrative structure and activities, the following operating segments have been determined: • Retail • Wholesale • Wealth Management • International • Non Performing Assets • Corporate Center Since the Group operates in various geographical areas, apart from the operating segments identified above, the financial statements contain information based on the below distinction: • Greece • Other Countries It is noted that the methods used to measure operating segments for the purpose of reporting to the Executive Committee are not different from those required by the International Financial Reporting Standards. Detailed information relating to operating segments is provided in note 46. 1.2.3 Transactions in foreign currency and translation of foreign operations a. Transactions in foreign currency The consolidated financial statements are presented in Euro, which is the functional currency and the currency of the country of incorporation of the parent company of the Group. Items included in the financial statements of the subsidiaries are measured in the functional currency of each subsidiary which is the currency of the company’s country of incorporation or the currency used in the majority of the transactions held. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency of each subsidiary at the closing exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the closing exchange rate at the balance sheet date. Foreign exchange differences arising from the translation are recognized in the income statement. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated using the rate of exchange at the transaction date, except for non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value which are translated at the exchange rate of the date that the fair value is determined. The exchange differences relating to these items are part of the change in fair value and they are recognized in the income statement or recorded directly in equity depending on the classification of the non-monetary item. b. Translation of foreign operations The financial statements of all group entities that have a functional currency that is different from the presentation currency of the Group financial statements are translated as follows: • Assets and liabilities are translated to Euro at the closing rate applicable on the balance sheet date. • Income and expense items are translated to Euro at average exchange rates applicable for each period presented. The resulting exchange difference from the retranslation and those arising from other monetary items designated as a part of the net investment in the entity are recorded in equity. When a foreign entity is sold, the exchange differences are reclassified to the income statement as part of the gain or loss on sale. 1.2.4 Cash and cash equivalents For the purposes of the consolidated cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents consists of: • Cash on hand • Non-restricted balances with Central Banks and • Short-term balances due from banks and Reverse Repo agreements Short-term balances due from banks are those that upon initial recognition mature within three months. Non-restricted placements with Central Banks, short-term balances due from banks and Reverse Repo agreements are measured at amortised cost. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 258 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT 1.2.5 Classification and measurement of financial instruments Initial recognition The Group recognises financial assets or financial liabilities in its statement of financial position when it becomes a party to the terms of the contract. At initial recognition the Group measures financial assets and liabilities at fair values. Financial instruments not measured at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value plus or minus transaction costs and income or fees that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial instrument. Regular way purchases and sales of financial instruments are recognized at the settlement date with the exception of equity shares and derivatives that are recognized on trade date. For bonds that are measured at fair value, the change in fair value during the period between the trade date and the settlement date is recognized in profit or loss or in other comprehensive income based on the bond’s classification category. Subsequent measurement of financial assets The Group classifies its financial assets as: a. Financial assets measured at amortised cost b. Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, with gains or losses reclassified in profit or loss on derecognition c. Equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, with no reclassification in gains or losses to profit or loss on derecognition d. Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss. For each of the above categories the following apply: a. Financial assets measured at amortised cost In this category are classified the financial assets that satisfy both of the following criteria: • are held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows, • the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding. The above category is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method and is periodically assessed for expected credit losses, as it is further described in note 1.2.13. Cash and balances with central banks, due from financial institutions, loans and advances to customers that meet the above criteria and investment securities measured at amortized cost are included in this category. Due from financial institutions include receivables arising from the transactions of the Treasury business area with credit institutions and related companies that are not governed by loan agreements. b. Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, with gains or losses reclassified in profit or loss on derecognition In this category are classified the financial assets that satisfy both of the following criteria: • are held within a business model whose objective is a both to collect contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, • the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding. The above category is periodically assessed for expected credit losses, as it is further described in note 1.2.13. Investment securities measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are included in this category. c. Equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, with no reclassification in gains or losses to profit or loss on derecognition In this category are classified equity instruments that are neither held for trading nor contingent consideration arising from a business combination for which it is opted, at initial recognition, to be measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. This decision is irrevocable. With the exception of dividends, which are directly recognized in profit or loss, all other gains and losses arising from those instruments are directly recognized in other comprehensive income and are not reclassified to profit or loss. For those equity instruments there is no impairment assessment. d. Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets included in this category are: • those acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the near term to obtain short term profit (held for trading). The Group has included in this category bonds, treasury bills and a limited number of shares. • those that do not meet the criteria to be classified into one of the above categories a-c. In particular, this category includes loans and advances to customers that are not measured at amortized cost, investment securities measured at fair value through profit or loss and derivative financial assets. • those the Group designated, at initial recognition, as at fair value through profit or loss. This classification option, which is irrevocable, is used when the designation eliminates an accounting mismatch which would otherwise arise from measuring financial assets and liabilities on a different basis (i.e. amortised cost) in relation to another financial asset or liability (i.e. derivatives which are measured at fair value through profit or loss). As at the reporting date, the Group had not designated, at initial recognition, any financial assets as at fair value through profit or loss. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 259 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Business Model assessment The business model reflects how the Group manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. That is, the Group’s business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling financial assets or both. The Group’s business model is determined at a level that reflects how groups of financial assets are managed together to achieve a particular business objective. Accordingly, business model does not depend on management’s intentions for an individual instrument but it is determined on a higher level of aggregation. The business models of the Group are determined by the Asset Liability Committee (ALCO) or the Executive Committee (ExCo) which decide on the determination of the business model both for the loans and advances to customers and the securities portfolio. In this context: • For loans and advances to customers the Group has identified the following business models: • Business model whose objective is to hold financial instruments in order to collect their contractual cash flows (hold to collect) and • Business model whose objective is the sale of financial instruments which is applied only to syndicated loans that the Group grants in order to sell them. • Due from financial institutions are included in the business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows (hold to collect) • For bonds and in general for fixed income investments, the Group has identified the following business models: • Business model whose objective is to hold financial instruments in order to collect their contractual cash flows (hold to collect) • Business model that aims both at collecting contractual cash flows and selling (hold to collect and sell) • Trading portfolio • Business model whose objective is achieved by the sale/distribution of the financial assets. The classification in the above business models is carried out at the level of the individual business units/companies based on the framework set at the group level and after an assessment of the way financial instruments are managed by the business units/companies. The Group, at each reporting date, reassesses its business models in order to confirm that there has been no change compared to the prior period or application of a new business model. In the context of the reassessment of the hold to collect business model past sales as well as expected future sales are taken into account within specific criteria of significance and frequency. It is noted that the sales of non-performing exposures that take place due to the deterioration of the borrowers' credit rating, with the exception of those created by the Group and characterized as credit impaired upon initial recognition, do not affect the hold to collect business model. Solely Payments of Principal and Interest (SPPI) assessment of the contractual cash flows For the purposes of applying the SPPI assessment: • Principal is the fair value of the asset at initial recognition, which may change over the life of the financial asset (for example if there are repayments of principal). • Interest is the consideration for the time value of money, for the credit risk associated with the principal amount outstanding during a particular period of time and for other basic lending risks (i.e. liquidity risk) and costs, as well as a profit margin. Contractual terms that introduce exposure to risks and volatility in the contractual cash flows that are not related to a basic lending arrangement, such as exposure to changes in equity prices or commodity prices, do not give rise to contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. In this context, in assessing whether contractual cash flows are SPPI, the Group assesses whether the instrument contains contractual terms that change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows such as conversion to equity terms and terms based on which the performance of the instruments is affected by equity or commodity prices. Especially in the case of financing of a special purpose vehicle, in order for the loan to meet the criterion that its cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding the Group takes into account factors such as the capital structure of the debtor and the LTV (Loan to Value) ratio. In addition, in determining whether contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, it is assessed whether time value of money element has been modified. The time value of money element does not provide consideration for other risks or costs associated with holding the financial asset. However, in some cases, the time value of money element may be modified. That would be the case, for example, if a financial asset’s interest rate is periodically reset but the frequency of that reset does not match the tenor of the interest rate or if a financial asset’s interest rate is periodically reset to an average of particular short- and long-term interest rates. In such cases, the Group assesses the modification to determine whether the contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The objective of the assessment is to determine how different the contractual (undiscounted) cash flows could be from the (undiscounted) cash flows that would arise if the time value of money element was not modified (benchmark test). The effect of the modified time value of money element must be considered in each reporting period and cumulatively over the life of the instrument. If the Group concludes that the contractual (undiscounted) cash flows could be significantly different (based on specified limits) from the (undiscounted) benchmark cash flows, the contractual cash flows are not solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. Reclassification of financial assets Reclassifications of financial assets between measurement categories occur when, and only when, the Group changes its business model for managing the assets and IFRS 9 requirements are met. In this case the reclassification is applied prospectively from the first reporting period following the change in the business model. Changes in the business model of the Group that lead to the reclassification of financial assets are expected to be rare. They arise from decisions of the Asset Liability Committee (ALCO) or the Executive Committee (ExCo) as a result of external or internal changes which must be significant to the entity’s operations and demonstrable to external parties. Derecognition of financial assets The Group derecognizes financial assets when: CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 260 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • the contractual rights to the assets cash flows expire, • the contractual right to receive the cash flows of the financial assets are transferred and at the same time all the risks and rewards of ownership are substantially transferred, • loans or investments in securities are no longer recoverable and consequently are written off, • the contractual cash flows of the assets are significantly modified. In the case of transactions where despite the transfer of the contractual right to receive the cash flows from financial assets both the risk and rewards remain with the Group, no derecognition of these financial assets occurs. The amount received by the transfer is recognized as a financial liability. The accounting practices followed by the Group in such transactions are discussed in notes 1.2.20 and 1.2.21. In the case of transactions, whereby the Group neither retains nor transfers risks and rewards of the financial assets, but retains control over them, the financial assets are recognized to the extent of the Group’s continuing involvement. If the Group does not retain control of the assets then they are derecognised, and in their position the Group recognizes, distinctively, the assets and liabilities which are created or retained during the transfer. No such transactions occurred upon balance sheet date. In case of a change in the contractual terms of a financial asset, when the change is considered significant it results in the derecognition of the original financial asset and the recognition of a new one. Significant modifications that lead to derecognition include criteria such as, for example, a change in issuer/borrower and a change in currency. In case of derecognition due to significant modification, the difference between the carrying amount of the original asset and the fair value of the new asset is directly recognized in the Income Statement, as specifically mentioned in notes 1.2.26 and 1.2.27. Additionally, in case the original asset was measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, the cumulative gains or losses recognized in other comprehensive income are transferred to profit or loss. In contrast, if the change in contractual cash flows is not significant, the gross carrying amount of the asset is recalculated by discounting new contractual cash flows with the original effective interest rate and the difference compared to the current gross carrying amount is directly recognized in profit or loss (modification gain or loss) in the line item “Impairment losses and provisions to cover credit risk”. Fees related to the modification adjust the carrying amount of the asset and are amortised over the remaining term of the modified financial asset through the effective interest method. Subsequent measurement of financial liabilities The Group classifies financial liabilities in the following categories for measurement purposes: a. Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss • This category includes financial liabilities held for trading, that is: • financial liabilities acquired or incurred principally with the intention of selling or repurchasing in the near term for short term profit, or • derivatives not used for hedging purposes. Liabilities arising from either derivatives held for trading or derivatives used for hedging purposes are presented as “derivative financial liabilities” and are measured according to the principles set out in note 1.2.6. • This category also includes financial liabilities which are designated by the Group as at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition, when doing so results in more relevant information, because either: • it eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise from measuring assets or liabilities or recognising the gains and losses on them on different bases; or • a group of financial liabilities or financial assets and financial liabilities is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the group is provided internally on that basis to the Group’s key management personnel; • Finally, this category includes contracts containing one or more embedded derivatives and the Group measures the compound financial instruments as financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss. It is noted that in the above case, the amount of the change in fair value attributable to the Group’s credit risk is recognized in other comprehensive income, unless this treatment would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss. Amounts recognized in other comprehensive income are never reclassified to profit or loss. As at the reporting date, the Group had not designated, at initial recognition, any financial liabilities as at fair value through profit or loss. b. Financial liabilities carried at amortised cost Liabilities to credit institutions and customers, debt securities issued by the Group and other loan liabilities are classified in this category. The liabilities classified in this category are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. In cases when financial liabilities included in this category are designated as the hedged item in a hedge relationship, the accounting principles applied are those set out in note 1.2.6. c. Liabilities arising from financial guarantees and commitments to provide loans at a below market interest rate A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make a payments when due in accordance with the agreed terms. The financial guarantee contracts and the commitments to provide loans at a below market interest rate are initially recognized at fair value, and measured subsequently at the higher of: • the amount of the provision determined during expected credit loss calculation (note 1.2.13), • the amount initially recognised less cumulative amortization which is calculated based on the term of the instrument. d. Financial liabilities that arise when a transfer of a financial asset does not qualify for derecognition or when the continuing involvement approach applies CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 261 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT In the first case the liability should be equal to the amount received during the transfer while in the second case it should measured in such a way that the net carrying amount of the transferred asset and the associated liability is: • The amortised cost of the rights and obligations retained by the Group, if the transferred asset is measured at amortised cost or • Equal to the fair value of the rights and obligations retained by the Group when measured on a stand-alone basis, if the transferred asset is measured at fair value. e. Contingent consideration recognized by an acquirer in a business combination Such contingent consideration is subsequently measured at fair value with changes recognized in profit or loss. Derecognition of financial liabilities Financial liabilities (or part thereof) are derecognized when the contractual obligation is been discharged, cancelled or expires. When a financial liability is exchanged for another liability with substantially different terms, the exchange is accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new one. The same applies in cases of a substantial modification of the terms of an existing financial liability or a part of it (whether or not attributable to the financial difficulty of the debtor). The terms are considered substantially different if the discounted present value of the cash flows under the new terms (including any fees paid net of any fees received), discounted using the original effective interest rate, is at least 10% different from the present value of the remaining cash flows of the original financial liability. In cases of derecognition, the difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability (or part of the financial liability) extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss. Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the amount are reported net on the balance sheet, only in cases when the Group has the legally enforceable right to offset recognized amounts and there is the intention to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 1.2.6 Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting Derivative financial instruments Derivatives are financial instruments that upon inception have a minimal or zero fair value that subsequently changes in accordance with a particular underlying instrument or indices defined in the contract (foreign exchange, interest rate, index or other variable). Derivatives are entered into for either hedging or trading purposes and they are measured at fair value irrespective of the purpose for which they have been transacted. The change in the fair value of the interest and currency derivatives, excluding options, is separated into interest, foreign exchange differences and other gains or losses from financial transactions. All derivatives are recognized as assets when their fair value is positive and as liabilities when their fair value is negative. In case a derivative is embedded in a financial asset, the embedded derivative is not separated and the hybrid contract is accounted for based on the classification requirements mentioned in note 1.2.5. In case a derivative is embedded in a host contract, other than a financial asset, the embedded derivative is separated and measured at fair value through profit or loss when the following conditions are met: • the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are not closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host, • a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a derivative; and • the hybrid contract is not measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss. The Group uses derivatives as a means of exercising Asset-Liability management within the guidelines established by the Asset-Liability Committee (ALCO). Valuation differences arising from derivatives are recognized in “Gains less losses on financial transactions” except when derivatives participate in hedging relationships in which case the principles for hedge accounting mentioned below apply. It is noted that the Group uses FX swaps in order to economically hedge the exposures arising from customer loans and deposits. The result arising from these derivatives is recognized as interest and foreign exchange differences, in order to match with the interest element and foreign exchange differences resulting from the deposits and loans, and as other gains less losses on financial transactions. Hedge accounting Hedge accounting establishes the valuation rules to offset the gain or loss of the fair value of a hedging instrument and a hedged item which would not have been possible if the normal measurement principles were applied. It is noted that the Group has opted to continue to apply the provisions for hedge accounting of IAS 39. Documentation of the hedging relationship upon inception and of the effectiveness of the hedge on an on-going basis are the basic requirements for the adoption of hedge accounting. The hedge relationship is documented upon inception and the hedge effectiveness test is carried out upon inception and is repeated at each reporting date. A hedge is regarded as highly effective only if both of the following conditions are met: • at the inception of the hedge and in subsequent periods the hedge is expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows attributable to the hedged risk during the period for which the hedge is designated, • the actual results of the hedge are within a range of 80%-125%. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 262 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The main causes that may lead to hedging ineffectiveness are the following: • The credit risk (counterparty risk) of the hedging instruments used to hedge interest rate or currency risk, which is minimized by using derivatives with high credit rating counterparties • The timing difference in the cash flows of the hedging instruments and the hedged items. A hedging relationship is disccontinued prospectively when: • the hedging instrument expires, sold, terminated or excercised, • the hedge ceases to be effective (in this case the discontinuation is applied from the last date the effectiveness criteria were met), • the Group revokes the designation, • the forecast transaction (in case of a hedge of a forecast transaction) is no longer expected to occur. a. Fair value hedges A fair value hedge of a financial instrument offsets the change in the fair value of the hedged item in respect of the risks being hedged. The Group uses interest rate swaps (IRS’s) to hedge risks relating to borrowings, deposits, loans and bonds. For all interest rate risk hedging relationships, the Group defines at the inception of the relationship the reference interest rate related to the hedged risk (euro interest rate) and calculates the changes in the fair value of the hedged instrument as changes in the euro interest rate curve. Changes in the fair value of both the hedging instrument and the hedged item, in respect of the specific risk being hedged, are recognized in the income statement. When the hedging relationship no longer exists, the hedged items continue to be measured based on the classification and valuation principles set out in note 1.2.5. Specifically any adjustment, due to the fair value change of a hedged item for which the effective interest method is used, up to the point that the hedging relationship ceases to be effective, is amortised to interest income or expense based on a recalculated effective interest rate, over its remaining life. Especially with regard to deposits, it is noted that the Group applies interest rate risk hedge accounting on a deposit portfolio using the hedge accounting provisions adopted by the European Union (EU Carve-out) b. Cash flow hedge A cash flow hedge changes the cash flows of a financial instrument from a variable rate to a fixed rate. The Group defines at the inception of the hedging relationship the reference interest rate related to the hedged risk (euro interest rate) and measures the changes in the fair value of the hedging instrument and a hypothetical derivative in relation to changes in the euro interest rate curve. The floating leg of the hypothetical derivative simulates the cash flows of the hedged item while the cash flows of the fixed leg are defined in a way that makes the valuation of the hypothetical derivative zero at the inception of the hedge. The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognized directly in other comprehensive income, in cash flow hedge reserve, whereas the ineffective portion is recognized in Gains less losses on financial transactions. The accounting treatment of the hedged item does not change. When the hedging relationship is discontinued, the amount recognized in equity remains there separately until the cash flows or the future transaction occur. When the cash flows or the future transaction occur the following apply: • If the result is the recognition of a financial asset or a financial liability, the amount is reclassified to profit or loss in the same periods during which the hedged forecast cash flows affect profit or loss. • If the result is the recognition of a non-financial asset or a non-financial liability or a firm commitment for which fair value hedge accounting is applied, the amount recognized in equity either is reclassified to profit or loss in the same periods during which the asset or the liability affect profit or loss or adjusts the carrying amount of the asset or the liability. When a forecasted transaction or the expected cash flows are no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was recognized in equity is reclassified to profit or loss. In particular, the amount that has been recognized in equity, as a result of revoked cash flow hedging relationships for term deposits, is linearly amortised as interest expense in the periods during which the hedged cash flows from the aforementioned term deposits affect profit or loss. c. Hedges of net investment in a foreign operation The Group, following the decision of the Asset-Liability Committee (ALCO), uses foreign exchange derivatives, mainly cross currency interest rate swaps and foreign exchange swaps, to hedge foreign exchange risks arising from investment in foreign operations. To hedge the currency risk of the net investment in a foreign operation, the net assets are measured at the current exchange rate and the resulting exchange differences are compared with the exchange differences of the derivative. Hedge accounting of net investment in a foreign operation is similar to cash flow hedge accounting. The cumulative gain or loss recognized in equity is reversed and recognized in profit or loss, at the time that the disposal of the foreign operation takes place. 1.2.7 Fair Value Measurement Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The Group measures the fair value of assets and liabilities traded in active markets based on available quoted market prices. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, pricing service or regulatory agency, and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length basis. The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by the use of valuation techniques, appropriate in the circumstances, and for which sufficient data to measure fair value are available, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs. If observable inputs are not available, other model inputs are used which are based on estimations and assumptions such as the determination of expected future cashflows, discount rates, probability of counterparty default and prepayments. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 263 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT In all cases, the Group uses the assumptions that ‘market participants’ would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest. Assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value or for which fair value is disclosed are categorized according to the inputs used to measure their fair value as follows: • Level 1 inputs: quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets • Level 2 inputs: directly or indirectly observable inputs • Level 3 inputs: unobservable inputs used by the Group, to the extent that relevant observable inputs are not available In particular, the Group applies the following: Financial instruments For financial instruments the best evidence of fair value at initial recognition is the transaction price, unless the fair value can be derived by other observable market transactions relating to the same instrument, or by a valuation technique using mainly observable inputs. In these cases, if the fair value differs from the transaction price, the difference is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income. In all other cases, fair value is adjusted to defer the difference with the transaction price. After initial recognition, the deferred difference is recognized as a gain or loss only to the extent that it arises from a change in a factor that market participants would take into account when pricing the instrument. When measuring fair value, the Group takes into consideration the effect of credit risk. Specifically, for derivative contracts, the Group estimates the credit risk of both counterparties (bilateral credit valuation adjustments). The Group measures fair value for all assets and liabilities separately. Regarding derivative exposures, however, that the Group manages as a group on a counterparty basis and for which it provides information to the key management personnel, the fair value measurement for credit risk is performed based on the net risk exposure per counterparty. Credit valuation adjustments arising from the aforementioned process are allocated to either assets or liabilities, depending on whether the net exposure to the counterparty is long or short respectively. Furthermore, the fair value of deposit accounts with a demand feature (such as saving deposits) is no less than the amount payable on demand, discounted from the first date that the amount could be required to be paid. Non- financial assets and liabilities The most important category of non- financial assets for which fair value is estimated is real estate property. The process, mainly, followed for the determination of the fair value is summarized below: • Assignment to the engineer - valuer • Case study- Setting of additional data • Autopsy - Inspection • Data processing - Calculations • Preparation of the valuation report To derive the fair value of the real estate property, the valuer chooses among the three following valuation techniques or a combination of two of them in cases required by the special characteristics of the property or in cases that special conditions prevail such as for example an energy crisis: • Market approach (or sales comparison approach), which measures the fair value by comparing the property to other identical ones for which information on transactions is available. • Income approach, which capitalizes future cash flows arising from the property using an appropriate discount rate. • Cost approach, which reflects the amount that would be required currently to replace the asset with another asset with similar specifications, after taking into account the required adjustment for impairment. Examples of inputs used to determine the fair value of properties and which are analysed to the individual valuations, are the following: • Commercial property: price per square meter, rent growth per annum, long-term vacancy rate, discount rate, expense rate of return, lease term, rate of non leased properties/units for rent. • Residential property: Net return, reversionary yield, net rental per square meter, rate of continually non leased properties/units, expected rent value per square meter, discount rate, expense rate of return, lease term etc. • General assumptions such as the age of the building, residual useful life, square meter per building etc are also included in the analysis of the individual valuation assessments. It is noted that the fair value measurement of a property takes into account a market’s participant ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in it’s highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in it’s highest and best use. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 264 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT 1.2.8 Property, Plant and Equipment This caption includes: land, buildings used by branches or for administrative purposes, additions and improvements of leased property and equipment. It also includes right of use assets in case those assets are used by the Group (the accounting policies applicable to those assets are presented in note 1.2.11). Property, plant and equipment are initially recognised at cost which includes any expenditure directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. Subsequently, property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Subsequent expenditure is recognized on the carrying amount of the item when it increases future economic benefit. Expenditure on repairs and maintenance is recognized in profit or loss as an expense as incurred. Depreciation is charged on a straight line basis over the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment and it is calculated on the asset’s cost minus residual value. Under the Group policy, the estimated useful lives are as follows: • Buildings: • commercial properties with office / shop use and residential properties: • up to 50 years for properties with high criteria for construction - reconstruction - renovation and which are characterized as sustainable. In some cases, for newly built properties with very high criteria and construction elements, the useful life can reach 70 years. • up to 45 years for the remaining properties that do not meet the above characteristics. • for industrial - craft and other commercial properties: • up to 45 years for properties with high criteria for construction - reconstruction - renovation and which are characterized as sustainable. • up to 40 years for the remaining properties that do not meet the above characteristics. • embedded mechanical equipment: up to 25 years. • Additions to leased fixed assets and improvements: duration of the lease • Equipment and vehicles: up to 33 years Land is not depreciated but is tested for impairment. The residual value of property and equipment and their useful lives are periodically reviewed and adjusted if necessary at each reporting date. Property, plant and equipment are reviewed on an annual basis to determine whether there is an indication of impairment and if they are impaired the carrying amount is adjusted to its recoverable amount with the difference recorded in profit or loss. In case of sale of property, plant and equipment as well as when no economic benefits are expected for the Group, the fixed asset is derecognised. When selling the asset, the difference between the sale price and its carrying amount is recognized in profit or loss. 1.2.9 Investment property The Group includes in this category buildings or portions of buildings together with their respective portion of land that are held for the purpose of long-term lease or for capital appreciation. The Group has also included in this category right of use assets when the Group is an intermediate lessor in an operating lease (the accounting policies applicable to those assets are presented in note 1.2.11). Investment property is initially recognised at cost which includes any expenditure directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. Subsequently investment property is measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Subsequent expenditure is recognized on the carrying amount of the item when it increases future economic benefit and can be measured reliably. All costs for repairs and maintenance are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. The estimated useful lives over which depreciation is calculated using the straight line method are the same as those applied to property, plant and equipment. Transfers to and from the category of investment property are made when the property meets (or ceases to meet) the definition of investment property and there is evidence of change in its use. In particular, the property is reclassified in “Property, plant and equipment” if the Group decides to use it while it is reclassified in the category of property held for sale if a decision is taken to sell it and if the criteria referred to in paragraph 1.2.16 are met. Conversely, for property not classified within “Investment Property”, the commencement of its lease constitutes a proof of change of use and may lead to the reclassification to investment property. In case of sale of investment property as well as when no economic benefits are expected for the Group, the fixed asset is derecognised. When selling the asset, the difference between the sale price and its carrying amount is recognized in profit or loss. 1.2.10 Goodwill and other intangible assets Goodwill Positive goodwill is recorded to “Goodwill and other intangible assets”, if it relates to the acquisition of a subsidiary, and it is tested for impairment at each balance sheet date. Goodwill on acquisitions of associates or joint ventures is included in “Investment in associates and joint ventures”. Negative goodwill is recognized in profit or loss. Other intangible assets The Group has included in this caption: a. Intangible assets which are recognized from business combinations or which are individually acquired. These intangible assets include the value attributed to the acquired customer relationships and to deposit bases. Intangible assets arising from business combinations are initially CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 265 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT measured at fair value while those individually acquired are initially measured at cost. Subsequently, they are depreciated, using the straight line method, during their useful life, and are assessed for impairment when there are triggers for impairment. b. Software, which is measured at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses. Expenditure incurred to maintain software programs is recognized in the income statement as incurred. Software that is considered to be an integral part of hardware is classified in property, plant and equipment. More specifically, separately acquired software is initially measured at cost which comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable cost of preparing the software for its intended use, including employee benefits or professional fees. Software acquired as part of a business combination is initially measured at fair value. Both software separately acquired and acquired as part of a business combination is depreciated during its useful life which has been set from 1 to 15 years. Regarding internally generated software, the Group recognizes an intangible asset when it can demonstrate all of the following at the development phase: • the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale; • its intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it; • its ability to use or sell the intangible asset; • how the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits; • the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset; • its ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during is development. Expenditure incurred during the research phase is directly recognized in profit or loss. Consequently, the cost of an internally generated intangible asset is the sum of expenditure incurred from the date when the intangible asset first meets the above criteria, including employee benefits arising from the generation of the software. Internally generated software is depreciated, using the straight line method, during its useful life which has been set from 2 to 15 years. All intangible assets are assessed for impairment when there are triggers for impairment (note 1.2.14). No residual value is estimated for intangible assets. In case of sale of an intangible asset the intangible asset is derecognised, while when no economic benefits are expected for the Group, its value is fully impaired. When selling the asset, the difference between the sale price and its carrying amount is recognized in profit or loss. 1.2.11 Leases The Group enters into leases either as a lessee or as a lessor. At inception, the Group assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease. The lease term is determined as the non-cancellable period of a lease, together with both periods covered by an option to extend the lease if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option and periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if the lessee is reasonably certain not to exercise that option. a. When the Group is the lessor When the risks and rewards incident to ownership of an asset are transferred to the lessee they are classified as finance leases. All other lease agreements are classified as operating leases: i. Finance leases: For finance leases where the Group is the lessor the present value of lease payments is recognized as loans and advances. The difference between the present value (net investment) of lease payments and the aggregate amount of lease payments is recognized as unearned finance income and is deducted from loans and advances. The finance lease receivables are subject to the same impairment testing as applied to customer loans and advances as described in note 1.2.13. ii. Operating leases: When the Group is a lessor of assets under operating leases, the leased asset is recognized and depreciation is charged over its estimated useful life. Income arising from the leased asset is recognized as other income on an accrual basis. b. When the Group is the lessee The Group, as a lessee, for all leases recognizes a right of use asset and a lease liability at the commencement of the lease. The right of use asset is initially measured at cost, comprising the initial lease liability amount, any initial direct costs and an estimate of the obligation for costs to refurbish the asset, less any lease incentives received. Right-of use assets are subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation, any accumulated impairment losses and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. Depreciation is charged on a straight line basis from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. Right-of-use assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is an indication of impairment and if they are impaired the carrying amount is adjusted to its recoverable amount with the difference recorded in profit or loss (note 1.2.14). For short-term leases (lease term of 12 months or less) and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value (less than 5.000 EUR when new) the Group does not recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability but instead recognizes the lease payments as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of lease payments that are not paid at that date, net of cash lease incentives. Lease payments are discounted using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate. Incremental borrowing rate is determined by using as reference rate CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 266 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT the estimated cost of Alpha Bank’s secured funding rate, adjusted for different currencies and taking into consideration government yield curves, where applicable. After the commencement date, the Group measures the lease liability by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest, reducing the carrying amount to reflect lease payments made and remeasuring the carrying amount to reflect any reassessment or lease modifications. In case of a sale and leaseback transaction only the amount related to the rights that have been transferred to the buyer-lessor is recognized in profit or loss. Right of use assets are included within Property, plant and equipment and the lease liability is included in Other liabilities. In cases where the Group is an intermediate lessor in an operating lease, right of use assets recognized for the head lease are included within Investment property while in case the Group is an intermediate lessor in a finance lease right of use asset, or the part of it which is subleased, is derecognized and a finance lease receivable is recognized. Specifically for the Bank, the duration of the professional lease contracts is defined in most cases for three years, with the possibility of unilateral extension in some of them by the Bank for an additional period of time. The Bank decides whether to make use of this option by evaluating current conditions, with the Bank retaining the right to terminate the lease at any time during the term of the contract. The Bank's policy is to renew these contracts if it wishes to remain in the properties. Finally, in the leases of premises for the Off Site ATM operation, their duration, in their majority, is set at one or two years and if they are renewed, as the contract provides for their conversion to an indefinite period, it is estimated that the duration of the lease will be ten years. 1.2.12 Insurance activities a. Insurance contracts The Group through its subsidiary company Alpha Life enters into insurance contracts. Insurance contracts are contracts under which the insurance company accepts significant insurance risk from the policyholder by agreeing to compensate the policyholder if a specified uncertain future event adversely affects the policyholder. For the Group, insurance risk is significant when the amount paid in the event of insurance risk exceeds 5% of the total benefit arising from the contract. The contracts that Alpha Life enters into and which do not involve a significant insurance risk are classified as investment contracts, are included in caption “Due to customers” in the balance sheet and are measured as financial liabilities under IFRS 9. b. Level of aggregation of insurance contracts Insurance contracts are grouped into portfolios of contracts. A portfolio comprises contracts subject to similar risks and managed together. Contracts included in a group of contracts are issued less than 12 months apart while the annual basis is determined as the calendar year, i.e. the period from 1.1 to 31.12. c. Measurement he insurance contracts of the Group are contracts with direct participation features and are measured based on the variable fee approach. In particular, on initial recognition, groups of insurance contracts are measured at the total of: • the fulfillment cash flows, which comprise: • estimates in present value of future cash flows within the boundary of each contact and • a risk adjustment for non-financial risk, • the contractual service margin. Fulfillment future cash flows are those that relate directly to the contract, such as premiums, payments to policyholders, insurance acquisition cash flows, administration costs etc. while the contract boundary is determined by its duration as this is stated in the insurance contract. In the actuarial models are also included expenses which are within the scope of IFRS 17 and which are allocated based on their nature. To discount cash flows, the Group uses discount rates based mainly on the interest rate curve as determined by the European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA) applying zero liquidity premium. The risks covered by the risk adjustment for non-financial risk are insurance risk and other non-financial risks such as lapse risk and expense risk. The cost of capital approach is used for the calculation of the adjustment. A confidence level of 99.5% is used to determine the risk adjustment for non-financial risk. In accordance with the Group policy, changes in the risk adjustment for non-financial risk are not disaggregated and as a result the total change is included in the insurance service result. On initial recognition, the contractual service margin is measured at an amount that results in no income or expenses arising from: • the initial recognition of an amount for the fulfilment cash flows, • the derecognition at the date of initial recognition of any asset or liability recognised for insurance acquisition cash flows , and • any cash flows arising from the contracts in the group at that date. Subsequently, the contractual service margin is adjusted for the change in the Group’s share of the fair value of the underlying items, the effect of any new contracts added, the changes in fulfilment cash flows relating to future service and the amount recognised as insurance revenue because of the transfer of services in the period. At the end of each reporting period, the carrying amount of a group of insurance contracts is the sum of the following: • the liability for remaining coverage (fulfillment cash flows related to future service and the contractual service margin) and • the liability for incurred claims (fulfillment cash flows related to past service). The methodology for the identification of coverage units is determined by considering for each contract the quantity of the benefits provided under a contract as well as its expected coverage duration, in particular by taking into consideration the fund value. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 267 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT d. Presentation The liabilities from insurance contracts that fall within the scope of the IFRS 17 are presented in the line "Liabilities from insurance contracts" while receivables from reinsurance contracts are presented in the line "Reinsurance contracts assets". Regarding the Income Statement, insurance revenue and insurance service expenses are presented separately in captions “insurance revenue” and “insurance expenses” respectively, whereas their total is presented in caption “Net Insurance income”. In addition, insurance finance income or expenses are separately presented in caption “Finance income/(expense) from insurance contracts”. It is noted that as Alpha Life, from which the insurance contracts arise, has been classified as held for sale and its results as arising from discontinued operations, the liabilities from insurance contracts are included in "Liabilities related to assets classified as held for sale" and the results from insurance contracts in "Net profits/(loss) after income tax, from discontinued operations". 1.2.13 Provisions – Expected credit losses The Group, at each reporting date, recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on all debt financial instrumentss measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income as well as for off-balance sheet exposures (letters of guarantee, letters of credit, undrawn loan commitments) and finace lease receivables. The loss allowance is based on expected credit losses related to the probability of default within the next twelve months (Stage 1), unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk from the date of initial recognition or the instrument has become impaired in which cases expected credit losses are recognized over the life of the instrument (Stages 2 or 3). In addition, if the financial asset falls under the definition of purchased or originated credit impaired (POCI) financial assets, a loss allowance equal to the lifetime expected credit losses is recognized. Purchased or originated credit impaired exposures include: • Exposures that at the time of acquisition meet the criteria to be classified as non-performing exposures. • Exposures for which there has been a change in repayment terms, either due to financial difficulty or not, which resulted in derecognition and recognition of a new impaired asset (POCI) except when derecognition is due to the change of debtor of a corporate loan in which case the creditworthiness of the new debtor is reassessed. Especially for investments in debt securities, the following apply: • The instrument (or the issuer) is characterised as purchased or originated credit impaired when it has an external rating that corresponds to default at the time of acquisition • Corporate bonds resulting from debt restructuring are classified as purchased or originated credit impaired, based on the guidelines applicable to the loan portfolio. When a debt security has been purchased at a large discount and does not fall into any of the categories mentioned above, the Group examines the transaction in detail (transaction price, recovery rate, issuer’s financial condition at the time of purchase, etc.) in order to determine whether it should be recognised as purchased or originated credit-impaired (POCI). Classification in this category requires documentation and approval by the relevant committees of the Group. Finally, for receivables from customers derived from the Group’s commercial, other than loan, activity, the loss allowance for receivables from customers is measured at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses (there is no stage allocation) based on the simplified approach provided by IFRS 9. Default definition For credit exposures, the Group has adopted the default definition defined in the EBA Guidelines (GL/2016/07). It is noted that the Group has harmonized the perimeter of exposures recognized as “Defaulted Exposures”, as “Non-Performing Exposures” and as “IFRS 9 Impaired Exposures”. Due from financial institutions and bonds are considered impaired when the external rating of the issuer/counterparty is equivalent to default (D). In case there is no external rating, then the instrument is characterized as impaired based on internal rating. If there is also an exposure to the corporate issuer/counterparty to the loan portfolio which has been classified as impaired, the instrument is also characterized as impaired. Calculation of expected credit loss The measurement of expected credit losses is made as follows: • For financial assets, a credit loss is the present value of the difference between: • the contractual cash flows and • the cash flows that the Group expects to receive • For undrawn loan commitments, a credit loss is the present value of the difference between: • the contractual cash flows that are due if the holder of the loan commitment draws down the loan; and • the cash flows that the Group expects to receive if the loan is drawn down. • For letters of guarantee and letters of credit, the loss is equal to the expected payments to reimburse the holder for a credit loss that it incurs less any amounts that the Group expects to receive from the holder. For present value calculation, original effective interest rate is used as a discount rate. Especially for POCI assets credit-adjusted effective interest rate is used. More information on the calculation of expected credit loss (individual/collective assessment, credit risk parameters, incorporation of future information, adjustments by management) is included in note 47.1. Presentation of expected credit losses in financial statements Loss allowances for expected credit losses are presented in the Balance Sheet as follows: CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 268 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • Financial assets measured at amortised cost and finance lease receivables: loss allowance is presented as a deduction from the gross carrying amount of the assets. • Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income: for those assets no loss allowance is recognized in the Balance Sheet, however, its amount is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. • Letters of credit/letters of guarantee: loss allowance is recognized in line “Provisions” of liabilities in Balance Sheet. • Undrawn loan commitments: When there is not also a loan, loss allowance is recognized in line “Provisions” of liabilities in Balance Sheet. If a financial asset includes both a loan and an undrawn loan commitment, the accumulated expected credit losses of the loan commitment are presented together with the accumulated expected credit losses of the loan, as a deduction from its gross carrying amount. To the extent that the combined expected credit losses exceed the gross carrying amount of the loan, the expected credit losses are recognized in line “Provisions” of liabilities in Balance Sheet. The amount of expected credit losses for the period is presented in the caption “Impairment losses and provisions to cover credit risk”. In the same caption the following are also recognized: recoveries from written-off loans measured at amortised cost, the amounts received from financial guarantee contracts as well as the reimbursements received from synthetic securitization transactions, modification gains or losses of loans measured at amortised cost as well as the favourable changes in expected credit losses of POCI assets in case expected credit losses are less than the amount of expected credit losses included in the estimated cash flows on initial recognition. Write-offs The Group proceeds with the write-off of loans and advances to customers when it has no reasonable expectations for their recovery. In this case, the loss allowance is used against the carrying amount of the financial asset. Write-off is an event of derecognition. 1.2.14 Impairment losses on investments and non-financial assets The Group assess as at each balance sheet date its investments in associates and joint ventures as well as non-financial assets for impairment, particularly, right of use assets, goodwill and other intangible assets and at least annually property, plant and equipment and investment property. In assessing whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired both external and internal sources of information are considered, of which the following are indicatively mentioned: • The asset’s market value has declined significantly, more than would be expected as a result of the passage of time or normal use. • Significant changes with an adverse effect have taken place during the period or will take place in the near future, in the technological, economic or legal environment in which the entity operates or in the market to which the asset is dedicated. • Significant unfavorable changes in foreign exchange rates. • Market interest rates or other rates of return of investments have increased during the period, and those increases are likely to affect the discount rate used in calculating an asset’s value in use. • The carrying amount of the net assets of the entity is greater than its market capitalization. • Evidence is available of obsolescence or physical damage of an asset. Specifically for right of use assets, triggers for impairment include: • The existence of leased properties that are neither used nor leased by the Group. • The fact that the present value of the leases received in the event of a sublease is lower than the value of the rents paid under the lease. An impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss when the recoverable amount of an asset is less than its carrying amount. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. For the valuation of property, plant and equipment, the calculation of the recoverable amount includes all improvements which render the asset perfectly suitable for its use by the Group. An impairment loss recognised in prior periods shall be reversed in case of a change in the estimates for the determination of the recoverable amount. The increased carrying amount of the asset attributable to the reversal of an impairment loss shall not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill shall not be reversed. 1.2.15 Income tax Income tax consists of current and deferred tax. Current tax for a period includes the expected amount of income tax payable in respect of the taxable profit for the current reporting period, based on the tax rates enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax is the tax that will be paid or for which relief will be obtained in future periods and it is calculated based on the temporary differences between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their respective carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated using the tax rates that are expected to apply when the temporary difference reverses, based on the tax rates (and laws) enacted at the balance sheet date. A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized. In addition, deferred tax assets are not recognized from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and at the time it takes place affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit. Furthermore, regarding investments in associates and joint ventures, deferred tax assets are recognized only when it is probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 269 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Income tax, both current and deferred, is recognized in profit or loss except when it relates to items recognized directly in equity. In such cases, the respective income tax is also recognized in equity. In this context, the tax related to the dividend distribution, as assessed to constitute the payment of the return on the AT1 instrument, is recognized in profit or loss. 1.2.16 Non-current assets held for sale Non-current assets or disposal groups that are expected to be recovered principally through a sale transaction, along with the related liabilities, are classified as held-for-sale. The above classification is used if the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition and its sale is highly probable. The sale is considered highly probable when it has been decided by the competent bodies of the Management, an active programme to locate a buyer has been initiated, the asset is actively marketed for sale at a price which is reasonable in relation to its current fair value and the sale is expected to be completed within one year. In the event that the sale is not completed within one year, the asset remains classified as held for sale when the cause of the delay is beyond the Group's control and/or when the Group is still committed to the plan for its disposal and the sale is considered probable. Non-current assets that are acquired exclusively with a view to their subsequent disposal are classified as held for sale at the acquisition date when the one-year requirement is met and it is highly probable that the remaining criteria will be met within a short period following the acquisition (usually within three months). Before their classification as held for sale, the assets are remeasured in accordance with the respective accounting standard. Assets held for sale are initially recognised and subsequently remeasured at each balance sheet date at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell. Any loss arising from the above measurement is recorded in profit or loss and can be reversed in the future. In this case, the gain from any subsequent increase in fair value less costs to sell cannot exceed the cumulative impairment losses that have been recognized. When the loss relates to a disposal group it is allocated to assets within the disposal group with the exception of specific assets that are not within the scope of IFRS 5. The impairment loss on a disposal group is first allocated to goodwill and then to the remaining assets and liabilities on a pro-rata basis. Assets in this category are not depreciated. Gains or losses from the sale of these assets are recognized in the income statement. Non-current assets held for sale, that the Group subsequently decides either to use or to lease, are reclassified to the categories of property, plant and equipment or investment property respectively. Also, assets cease to be classified as held for sale when the classification criteria are no longer met. During their reclassification, they are measured at the lower of their recoverable amount and their carrying amount before they were classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation, amortization or revaluation that would have been recognized had the assets not been classified as held for sale. Non - current assets that the Group intends to sell but which are not available for immediate sale or are not expected to be sold within a year are included in Other Assets and are measured at the lower of cost (or carrying amount) and net realizable value in accordance with IAS 2. Net realizable value is considered equal to fair value less cost to sell. 1.2.17 Defined contribution and defined benefit plans The Group has both defined benefit and defined contribution plans. A defined contribution plan is where the Group pays fixed contributions into a separate entity and the Group has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions if the fund does not have sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in current or prior years. The contributions are recognized as employee benefit expense on an accrual basis. Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments is available. A defined benefit plan is a pension plan that defines an amount of pension benefit that an employee will receive on retirement which is dependent, among others, on years of service and salary on date of retirement and it is guaranteed by the entity of the Group. The defined benefit obligation is calculated, separately for each plan, based on an actuarial valuation performed by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The net liability recognized in the consolidated financial statements is the present value of the defined benefit obligation less the fair value of plan assets. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated based on the return of high quality corporate bonds with a corresponding maturity to that of the obligation, or based on the return of government bonds in cases when there in no deep market in corporate bonds. Interest on the net defined benefit liability (asset), which is recognised in profit or loss, is determined by multiplying the net defined benefit liability (asset) by the discount rate used to discount post-employment benefit obligation, as determined at the start of the annual reporting period, taking into account any changes in the net defined benefit liability (asset). Service cost, which is also recognised in profit or loss, consists of: • Current service cost; • Past service cost and • Any gain or loss on settlement. Past service cost, in particular, is directly recognized to profit or loss at the earliest of the following dates: • When the plan amendment or curtailment occurs and • When the Group recognizes related restructuring costs (according to IAS 37) or termination benefits. Likewise, the Group recognizes a gain or loss on the settlement when the settlement occurs. Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability (asset) which comprise: • actuarial gains and losses; • return on plan assets, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability (asset); and • any change in the effect of the limitation in the asset recognition, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability (asset), are recognized directly in other comprehensive income and are not reclassified in profit or loss in a subsequent period. Finally, when the Group decides to terminate the employment before retirement or the employee accepts the Group’s offer of benefits in exchange for termination of employment, the liability and the relative expense for termination benefits are recognized at the earlier of the following dates: CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 270 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits; and • when the Group recognizes restructuring costs which involve the payment of termination benefits. 1.2.18 Variable remuneration a. Variable remuneration paid in cash The obligation to pay variable remuneration to employees in cash, either through payroll or under a profit-sharing scheme, is recognized in the fiscal year for the performance of which the benefit is provided or during the servicing period in case the payment is deferred in order to be paid gradually in future years, provided that the employee remains in service. The cost of the remuneration is recognized in Staff Costs. b. Share options granted to employees The granting of share options of the parent company of the Group to the employees, their exact number, the price and the exercise date are decided by the Board of Directors in accordance with the Shareholders’ Meeting approvals and after taking into account the current legal framework. The fair value calculated at grant date is recognized during the servicing period and recorded in staff costs with an increase of a reserve in equity respectively. When there are no vesting conditions, it is considered that services have been received. On the contrary, when there are service vesting conditions the expense is recognized as the relative services are received. In case there are conditions that are not vesting conditions, they are taken into account in share options valuation. The amount paid by the beneficiaries of share options on the exercise date increases the share capital of the Group and the reserve in equity from the previously recognized fair value of the exercised options is transferred to share premium. The reserve in equity from the previously recognized fair value of the unexercised options is transferred to retained earnings. c. Stock awards granted to employees The granting of stock awards to the employees is decided by the Board of Directors within the framework approved by the Shareholders’ Meeting. The fair value of the award, determined at the grant date, is recognized in staff costs (expense) with a corresponding increase in an equity reserve, during the period when the relevant services are provided by the employees. When there are no vesting conditions, it is considered that services have been received. On the contrary, when there are service vesting conditions the expense is recognized as the relative services are received. In case there are conditions that are not vesting conditions, they are taken into account in the award’s valuation. At the time of registration of the shares in the portion of the beneficiaries, any difference between the acquisition cost of the treasury shares offered and the formed reserve that is used is recognized in retained earnings. 1.2.19 Provisions and contingent liabilities A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are, also, recognized in cases of restructuring plans with which management attempts either to change the subject of a corporate activity or the manner in which it is conducted (e.g. close down business locations). The recognition of provision is accompanied with the relevant, authorized by the Management, program and with the suitable actions of disclosure. A restructuring provision includes only the direct expenditures arising from the restructuring, which are those that are both necessarily entailed by the restructurings and not associated with the ongoing activity of the Group. The amount recognized as a provision shall be the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the amount of the provision is equal to the present value of the expenditures expected to settle the obligation. Amounts paid for the settlement of an obligation are set against the original provisions for these obligations. Provisions are reviewed at the end of each reporting period. If it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed. Additionally, provisions are not recognized for future operating losses. Future events that may affect the amount required to settle the obligation, for which a provision has been recognized, are taken into account when sufficient objective evidence exists that they will occur. Reimbursements from third parties relating to a portion of or all of the estimated cash outflow are recognized as assets, only when it is virtually certain that they will be received while their amount shall not exceed the amount of the provision. The expense recognized in profit or loss relating to the provision is presented net of the amount of the reimbursement provided that both amounts are recognized within the same fiscal year. The Group does not recognize in the statement of financial position contingent liabilities when it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or the amount of liability cannot be measured reliably or in cases where the obligation is possible only to the extent that one or more uncertain future events occur, which are not only within the control of the Group. The Group provides disclosures for contingent liabilities taking into consideration their materiality. 1.2.20 Securities sale and repurchase agreements and securities lending The Group enters into purchases of securities under agreements to resell at a certain date in the future at a fixed price (reverse repos). Securities purchased subject to commitments to resell them at future dates are not recognized in the balance sheet. The amounts paid, including interest accruals, are recognized in “Loans and advances to customers” or “Due from financial institutions”. The difference between the purchase price and the resale price is recognized as interest income using effective interest method. Similarly, securities that are sold under agreements to repurchase (repos) are not derecognized but they continue to be measured in accordance with the accounting policy of the category that they have been classified. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 271 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The proceeds from the sale of the securities are reported as “Due to customers” or “Due to banks”. The difference between the sales price and the repurchase price is recognized as interest expense using effective interest method. Securities borrowed by the Group under securities lending agreements are not recognized in the consolidated balance sheet except when they have been sold to third parties whereby the liability to deliver the security is recognized and measured at fair value. 1.2.21 Securitization The Group securitises financial assets by transferring these assets to special purpose entities, which in turn issue bonds. In each securitization of financial assets the assessment of control of the special purpose entity is considered, based on the circumstances mentioned in note 1.2.1, so as to examine whether it should be consolidated. In addition, the contractual terms and the economic substance of transactions are considered, in order to decide whether the Group should proceed with the derecognition of the securitised financial assets, as referred in note 1.2.5. 1.2.22 Equity Distinction between debt and equity Financial instruments issued by Group companies to obtain funding are classified as equity when, based on the substance of the transaction, the Group does not undertake a contractual obligation to deliver cash or another financial asset or to exchange financial instruments under conditions that are potentially unfavorable to the issuer. AT1 titles have been classified in this category since they are perpetual and there is no oblligation to pay either principal or interest. In cases when Group companies are required to issue equity instruments in exchange for the funding obtained, the number of equity instruments must be fixed and determined on the initial contract, in order for the obligation to be classified as equity. Distributions to the holders of equity instruments are directly recognized by debiting the equity of the Group. Incremental costs of share capital increase Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from retained earnings. Share premium Share premium includes the difference between the nominal value of the shares and the consideration received in the case of a share capital increase. It also includes the difference between the nominal value of the shares issued and their market value, in cases of exchanges of shares as consideration for the acquisition of a business by the Group. Treasury shares The cost of acquiring treasury shares is recognized as a reduction of equity. Subsequent gains or losses from the sale of treasury shares, after deducting all direct costs and taxes, are recognized directly in retained earnings. Dividends Dividends are deducted from retained earnings or specific equity reserves and recorded as a liability in the period that the dividend is approved by the Shareholders in General Meeting. Distributions of non-cash assets Distributions of non-cash assets take place at the fair value of the asset distributed. Any difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the asset distributed is directly recognised in profit or loss. 1.2.23 Interest income and expense Interest income and expense is recognized in the income statement for all interest bearing financial assets and liabilities. Interest income and expense is recognised on an accrual basis and measured using the effective interest method, with the exception of derivatives as described in detail in note 1.2.6. Especially for POCI assets, interest income is calculated using credit-adjusted effective interest rate. Effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial asset or financial liability to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset or to the amortised cost of a financial liability. When calculating the effective interest rate, the Group estimates the expected cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the financial instrument but does not consider the expected credit losses. The calculation includes all fees and points paid or received between parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. For financial assets, in particular, the following apply: • For those financial assets classified within Stage 1 or Stage 2 for the purpose of expected credit losses measurement, interest income is calculated by applying effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of the asset. • For those financial assets classified within Stage 3 for the purpose of expected credit losses measurement, interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the amortised cost of the asset. • For purchased or originated credit impaired financial assets interest income is calculated by applying the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortised cost of the asset. In case of negative interest rates, interest is presented within interest income for interest bearing financial liabilities and within interest expense for interest bearing financial assets. Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to assets that require a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale are capitalized as part of the cost of the asset. Capitalisation ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use are complete. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 272 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT 1.2.24 Fee and commission income Fees and commission income from contracts with customers are recognized based on the consideration specified in the contract when the Group satisfies the performance obligation by transferring the service to the customer. With the exception of specific portfolio management fees which are calculated on the basis of the size and performance of the portfolio, the services provided have a fixed price. Variable portfolio management fees are recognized when all related uncertainties are resolved. For commissions on services provided over time, revenue is recognized as the service is being provided to the customer, such as commissions to provide account management services, fees for administration of loans, fees for portfolio management and investment services advice. For transaction-based fees, the execution and completion of the transaction executed signals the point in time, in which the service is transferred to the customer and the revenue is recognized, such as currency transactions, purchases / sales of securities as well as issue and disposal of syndicated loans and bonds. Transaction revenues relating to the recognition of a financial instrument not measured at fair value through profit or loss are capitalized and amortised in the income statement using the effective interest method over the life of the financial instrument and included in interest income. 1.2.25 Dividend Income Dividend income from investments in shares is recognised in the income statement when the dividend distribution is approved by the appropriate body of the company that the Group has invested in. 1.2.26 Gains less losses on financial transactions Gains less losses on financial transactions include: • fair value changes of financial assets and liabilities, • gains and losses arising from the modification of the contractual terms of financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss, • gains and losses arising from the derecognition of financial assets and liabilities due to early repayment, including conversion of loans into shares, disposal or significant modification of the contractual terms, except for gains and losses arising from the derecognition of financial assets measured at amortised cost which are recognized in a separate line item of the Income Statement, and • exchange differences arising from the translation of financial instruments denominated in foreign currencies. 1.2.27 Gains less losses on derecognition of financial assets measured at amortised cost Gains less losses on derecognition of financial assets measured at amortised cost include: • Gains and losses from the derecognition of financial assets measured at amortised cost • The difference, at initial recognition, between the nominal and the fair value of a financial asset measured at amortised cost that is the result of the derecognition of another financial asset due to significant modification of its contractual terms. 1.2.28 Impairment losses on fixed assets and equity investments Impairment losses on fixed assets and equity investments include the impairment or write-off losses recognized on: • property, plant and equipment and investment property, • intangible assets, • right of use assets, • fixed assets classified within other assets as inventories, • investments in associates and joint ventures and • non-financial assets or disposal groups classified as held for sale. 1.2.29 Gains/(losses) from the disposal of fixed assets and equity investments The line item “Gains/(losses) from the disposal of fixed assets and equity investments” includes gains and losses from the disposal of: • property, plant and equipment and investment property, • intangible assets, • fixed assets classified within other assets as inventories, • investments in associates and joint ventures and • non-financial assets or disposal groups classified as held for sale. 1.2.30 Provisions (Income Statement) The "Provisions" line of the Income Statement includes changes in provisions for the period (except those related to credit risk coverage), including restructuring plan and operational risk provisions, as well as related expenses. 1.2.31 Transformation costs The line item “Transformation costs” include the costs recognized on an accrued basis and related to those projects carried out by the Group that lead to significant changes in its operation (transformation costs) and which do not meet the criteria to be recognized as a provision for a restructuring plan under IAS 37. 1.2.32 Expenses relating to credit risk management The line item "Expenses relating to credit risk management" includes: • servicing costs relating to overdue loans and • the protection fee paid in the context of synthetic securitization transactions as well as the costs of said transactions. 1.2.33 Discontinued operations A discontinued operation is a component of the Group that either has been disposed of, or has been classified as held for sale and represents: • a separate-major line of business or geographical area of operations; or • part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations; or • a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. When assessing whether a component meets the definition of a major line of business, its contribution to the Group's total assets and profit or loss is taken into account, as well as the extent to which discrete information is provided to the Executive Committee for that component. The profit or loss after tax from discontinued operations and any losses recognized on the measurement to fair value less costs to sell of the disposal group are presented in a separate line in the face of the income statement after net profit from continuing operations. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 273 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The comparative financial statements are restated only for the income statement and the cash flow statement. 1.2.34 Related parties definition According to IAS 24, a related party is a person or entity that is related to the entity that is preparing its financial statements. For the Group, in particular, related parties are considered: • An entity that constitutes for the Group: • a joint venture, • an associate and • the Post-employment Benefit Plan, in this case the TEA Group Alpha Services and Holdings • A person or an entity that have control, or joint control, or significant influence over the Group. • A person and his close family members, if that person is a member of the key management personnel. The Group considers as key management personnel all the members of the Board of Directors and of the Executive Committee of the parent company of the Group while as their close family members it considers their children and spouses or domestic partners and their dependants and the dependants of their spouses or domestic partners. Related parties are also considered the entities controlled or jointly controlled by the above mentioned persons and more specifically the entities in which the above persons participate with more than 20%. 1.2.35 Earnings per share Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing profit or loss attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent company of the Group by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are calculated using the same method as the calculation of basic earnings per share, however, both the nominator and the denominator are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. 1.2.36 Comparatives To the extent considered necessary the comparatives have been adjusted to facilitate changes in presentation of the current year amounts. 1.3 Significant accounting judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty Significant accounting judgments The Group, in the context of applying accounting policies, makes judgments and assessments which have a significant impact on the amounts recognized in the financial statements. Those judgements relate to the following: Business Model Assessment (notes 1.2.5) The Group, on the initial recognition of a debt financial asset, exercises judgment in order to determine the business model in which it would be classified, taking into account the way of evaluating its performance, the risks associated with it as well as the expected frequency and value of sales. Also, on a quarterly basis, it exercises judgment in order to reassess the business models, taking into account the sales that have been made as well as any changes in the management operating model of the assets. Based on this assessment, it decides whether it should define new business models or in rare circumstances proceed with the reclassification of financial assets to another business model. Assessment of whether contractual cash flows of a debt financial instrument represent solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding (SPPI) (note 1.2.5) The Group, at initial recognition of a debt financial asset, assesses whether cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The assessment requires judgement mainly on: • Whether contractual terms that affect the performance of the instrument relate solely to credit risk, other basic lending risks and profit margin. • For loans in special purpose entities, whether there is a non-recourse feature. The assessment is based on specific index thresholds as well as on the evaluation of the adequacy of equity and of the collaterals that are not related to the asset being financed. • Whether in case of prepayment or extension the compensation received is considered fair. • Whether in loans with ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) criteria, the change in credit spread based on the satisfaction of those ESG criteria is borrower specific and whether it relates to the change in credit risk and/or change in profit margin. The application of different judgments could affect the amount of financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss. Significant judgements relating to the selection of methodologies and models for expected credit losses calculation (note 47.1) The Group, in the context of the application of its accounting policies for the measurement of the expected credit losses makes judgments in order to identify: • the criteria that indicate a significant increase in credit risk, • the selection of appropriate methodologies for expected credit loss estimation (expected credit loss calculation on an individual or on a collective basis), • the selection and development of appropriate models used to calculate the exposure at default (EAD) by financial instrument category, the probability of default (PD), the estimated expected credit loss at the time of default (LGD) as well as the selection of appropriate parameters and economic forecasts used in them, • the selection of appropriate macroeconomic parameters affecting the expected credit risk loss, • the selection of the parameters used in the models to determine the expected life and the date of initial recognition of revolving exposures, CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 274 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • the grouping of financial assets based on similar credit risk characteristics, Applying different judgments could significantly affect the financial instruments classified in stage 2 and/ or significantly differentiate expected credit loss calculations. Income Tax (notes 17 and 43) The recognition of assets and liabilities for current and deferred tax is affected, inter alia, by the interpretation of the applicable tax legislation, the practical implementation of the relevant legislation and the settlement of disputes that might exist with tax authorities. When assessing the tax treatment of all significant transactions, the Group takes into account and evaluates all available data (Circulars of the Ministry of Finance, case law, administrative practices, etc.) and / or opinions received from internal and external legal advisers. Future tax audits and changes in tax legislation may result in the adjustment of the amount of assets and liabilities for current and deferred tax and in tax payments other than those recognized in the financial statements of the Group. Classification of non-current assets as held for sale (note 52) The Group classifies non-current assets or disposal groups that are expected to be recovered principally through a sale transaction, along with the related liabilities, as held-for-sale when the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition and its sale is highly probable to be completed within one year. The assessment of whether the above criteria are met requires judgment mainly as to whether the sale is likely to be completed within one year from the classification of the non-current assets or disposal group as held for sale. In the context of this assessment in which any previous experience from corresponding transactions is also considered, the Group takes into account elements such as any requirement for approvals (both regulatory and those given by the General Meeting and the Committees of the Group), the existence of offers (binding or not) and the status of the signed agreements with investors as well as of any conditions included in them. In addition, current economic conditions are taken into account which may affect the time of completion of sales transactions. In the event that the sale is not completed within one year from the classification of the non-current assets or disposal group as held for sale, judgment is exercised in order to assess whether the cause of the delay is outside the Group's control as well as whether the Group continues to be committed to the program for their disposal and the sale is considered likely to occur. Assessment of the existence of control, joint control or significant influence over companies (note 44) The Group exercises judgment in order to determine whether it has control, joint control or significant influence over companies either through its participation in their share capital or through other agreements. The main cases in which judgments were applied concern: • Special purpose entities established in the context of loan securitization transactions or synthetic securitization transactions and in which the Group assesses the existence of control taking into account the ability to make decisions over their main activities, as well as the degree of its exposure to the variability of their returns. • In associated companies in which the Group holds less than 20% of the share capital, it is assessed whether significant influence exists through the Group's participation in their Board of Directors and consequently through its participation in the policy-making process, as well as whether, based on the shareholders' agreement, there is the possibility of exercising a veto on significant decisions. Pending legal cases (note 43) The Group, in the context of the preparation of its financial statements, exercises judgment in order to assess the possibility of a negative outcome of its pending legal cases. In this judgement, the substantial circumstances of each case, the legislation and the regulatory framework, the relevant jurisprudence as well as the judicial course of the case are taken into account. As a result of this assessment, when the probability of a negative outcome exceeds 50% and the determination of the financial outflow that will be required is considered reliable, the Group proceeds with the recognition of a provision in the financial statements. Key sources of estimation uncertainty Key sources of estimation uncertainty used by the Group in the context of applying its accounting principles and relating to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period are presented below. Final amounts in the next periods may be significantly different from those recognised in these financial statements. Fair value of assets and liabilities (notes 26, 30, 47.4, 52) For assets and liabilities traded in active markets, the determination of their fair value is based on quoted, market prices. In all other cases the determination of fair value is based on valuation techniques that use observable market data to the greatest extent possible. In cases where there is no observable market data, the fair value is determined using data that are based on internal estimates and assumptions i.e. determination of expected cash flows, discount rates, prepayment probabilities or counterparty default. Fair value measurement of receivables arising from sale transactions is based on significant unobservable inputs such as the expected cash flows from the management of the underlying receivables portfolio and the business plan of the companies sold. Estimates included in the calculation of expected credit losses of financial instruments (notes 11, 47.1) The measurement of expected credit losses requires the use of complex models and significant estimates of future economic conditions and credit behavior, taking into account the events that have occurred until reporting date. The significant estimates relate to: • the determination of the alternative macroeconomic scenarios and the cumulative probabilities associated with these scenarios, • the probability of default during a specific time period based on historical data, assumptions and estimates for the future, • the determination of the expected cash flows and the flows from the liquidation of collaterals for financial instruments, • the determination of the adjustments to the models for the calculation of the parameters of expected credit loss when credit risk models cannot incorporate certain risk factors in periods of uncertainty and • the integration of loan portfolio sales scenarios taking into account on the one hand any factors that may hinder the realization of the sale and on the other hand the level of satisfaction of the conditions for the completion of the sale. Extention of protection program against the increase in interest rates for consistent borrowers of floating rate mortgages (note 11) CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 275 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT During the second quarter of the current year the Group estimated that the extension for one year of the protection program against the increase in interest rates for consistent borrowers of floating rate mortgages constitutes in essence an adjustment of the base interest rates to the current market interest rates for similar loans; thereby contributing to customer retention. Therefore, the modification of the cash flows of the loans in question due to the extension of the protection was accounted for through a recalculation of their effective interest rate. Impairment losses on investments in associates and joint ventures and on non - financial assets (notes 26, 28) The Group, at each reporting date, assesses for impairment right-of-use assets, goodwill and other intangible assets, as well as its investments in associates and joint ventures and at least on an annual basis property, plant and equipment and investment property. Management estimates the recoverable amount of the assets, i.e. the higher between the fair value less costs to sell and value in use by performing an impairment exercise, which includes inputs and assumptions that are inherently uncertain. In cases where the sale of such items is imminent, the fair value derives from the estimated price of the transaction considering any other element that could impact the recoverable amount upon the completion of the transaction Employee defined benefit obligations (note 35) Defined benefit obligations are estimated based on actuarial valuations, which are mainly conducted on an annual basis, that incorporate assumptions regarding discount rates, future changes in salaries and pensions, as well as the return on any plan assets. Any change in these assumptions will affect the amount of obligations recognized. Provisions (note 37) The amounts recognized by the Group in its financial statements as provisions are derived from the best estimate of the possible outflow required to settle the present obligation. This estimate is determined by Management after taking into account factors such as experience from relevant transactions, the degree of complexity of each case, the actions taken to settle it as well as expert reports when considered necessary. In case the amount recognized as a provision is affected by a variety of factors, its calculation is based on the weighting of all possible results. At each reporting date, provisions are revised to reflect current best estimates of the obligation. Recoverability of deferred tax assets (notes 17 and 29) The Group recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it is probable that it will have sufficient future taxable profit available, against which, deductible temporary differences and tax losses carried forward can be utilized. The estimation of future taxable profits is based on forecasts for the development of the accounting results, as these are formulated in accordance with the business plan of the Group. In particular, the business plan includes actions aimed at enhancing profitability through: • the reduction of the amount of non-performing exposures, • the improvement in operational efficiency and reduction of operating costs, • interest income increase through asset development, with a particular focus on business loans and • the increase in income from fees and commissions The main categories of deferred tax assets which have been recognized by the Group relate to losses from the Greek government bonds exchange program (PSI) and the December 2012 Greek government bond buyback program and to deductible temporary differences arising from loans’ impairment. Deferred tax assets associated with tax losses incurred by the PSI and the participation of the Bank in the December 2012 Greek government bond buyback program were recognized as a “debit difference” according to Law 4046/14.2.2012, Law 4110/23.1.2013 and a respective legal opinion. According to Law 4110/23.1.2013 the “debit difference” is deductible for tax purposes, gradually in equal installments, within 30 years, a fact which, according to the Group’s estimation, provides a sufficient time period for its gradual utilization against taxable profits. Regarding the temporary differences arising from loans’ impairment, there are no time constraints concerning their recovery, as is the case for the other deferred tax assets categories. The Group assessed their recoverability based on estimates for future taxable profits, as these are forecasted on the basis of the aforementioned business plan. In order to assess deferred tax asset recoverability, the Group’s business plan was extended for a limited number of years during which estimates were made regarding the production of new loans and the evolution of the operating results. In addition, tax losses resulting from the write-down of debts and the sale of loans, as specifically mentioned in note 17, are recognized as a debit difference. It is noted that the debit difference is recognized gradually and equally over a period of 20 years, a fact which in accordance with Group’s estimations provides sufficient time for offsetting against taxable profits. In addition, in accordance with the amendment of article 27 of L. 4172/2013, the amount of the annual deduction of the debit difference due to credit risk that is not offset against the taxable profits of the year is transferred in order to be deducted in subsequent tax years within the twenty-year period. If at the end of the twenty-year depreciation period there are balances that have not been offset, they constitute a loss that can be carried forward in order to be offset with future taxable profits within five years. The Group, based on the above, estimates that the total deferred tax assets recognized and that relate to temporary differences and to tax losses carried forward is recoverable. In addition, and regardless of the assessment of the recoverability of deferred tax assets that is carried out based on what is mentioned above, Law 4303/2014 provides that in case that the after tax accounting result for the period is a loss, deferred tax assets arising from the PSI debit difference and from the accumulated provisions and other general losses due to credit risk are eligible to be converted into a final and settled claim against the Greek State, as described in detail in note 17. The main uncertainties concerning the estimations for the recoverability of the deferred tax assets relate to the achievement of the goals set in the Group’s business plan, which is affected by the general macroeconomic environment in Greece and internationally. These goals mainly concern the reduction of non-performing exposures, the production of new loans as well as the evolution of operating results. At each balance sheet date, the Group reassesses its estimation regarding the recoverability of deferred tax assets in conjunction with the development of the factors that affect it. The estimates and judgments applied by the Group in making decisions and in preparing the financial statements are based on historical information and assumptions which at present are considered appropriate. The estimates and judgments are reviewed on an ongoing basis in order to take into account current conditions, and the effect of any changes is recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 276 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT 2. Restatement of financial statements a. In the context of improving the presentation of Income Statement, the Group decided in 2024, to reclassify certain expenses and income to better reflect their nature. Specifically, expenses and income have been reclassified as follows : • From “General Administration Expenses” to “Gains/(Losses) on Financial Transactions” • From “General Administration Expenses” to “Expenses Related to Credit Risk Management” • From “Fee and Commission Income” to “Interest and Similar Income” b. For a better presentation of current income tax liabilities, the Group reclassified the figures related to other taxes from line "Liabilities for current income tax and other Taxes" to "Other liabilities" therefore the relevant line of the Balance Sheet was renamed to "Liabilities for current income tax". This reclassification was applied retrospectively. d. During the current period, the accounting treatment for the dividend coupon payment of the AT1 instrument was reassessed and was considered that in substance it constitutes a distribution of profits and consequently the respective tax should be recognised in the Income Statement at the time of payment. This treatment was applied retrospectively for the coupon payments made by the Bank in August 2023 and February 2024. The above reassessment change in accounting treatment does not affect the book values of any Assets, Liabilities or elements of Equity as at 31.12.2023. The statement of changes in equity has been restated to reflect the effect of the reassessment. e. On 12.7.2024 Alpha International Holdings Single Member S.A (“AIH”) and UniCredit S.p.A. signed the Share Sale and Purchase Agreement relating to the sale of 90.1% of the issued share capital of Alpha Bank Romania S.A. As part of the agreement, it was determined that a portfolio of loans would be excluded from the transaction and not transferred to UniCredit. For this reason the results for the reporting and comparative period related to the loans thal will be excluded from the sale transaction are no longer presented as discontinued operations. f. During the third quarter of the current period, and in the context of the review of the estimates and judgments applied during the preparation of the financial statements which takes place on an ongoing basis, the terms of the agreements governing derivatives cleared in Central Counterparties through Clearing Members were reassessed and it was estimated that the IAS 32 offsetting criteria are met for derivative assets and liabilities arising from those agreements as well as for the related cash collateral exchanged. The change in the presentation of those financial instruments to be presented net in the balance sheet was applied retrospectively. The restatements of the Balance Sheet, the Income Statement, the Statement of Comprehensive Income and the Statement of Cash Flows for the comparative period are presented in the following tables. All subsequent notes have been restated accordingly. Taking into account that the adjustments (b) and (e) do not have an impact on the Group's total equity, it was not deemed necessary to present a restated Balance Sheet at the beginning of the comparative period.

This was partially counterbalanced by the increased interest income from debt securities following acquisitions. The following table presents interest income and interest expense calculated using the effective interest rate method, by financial asset category: 4. Net fee and commission income The increase in net fee and commisson income is mainly due higher volume of mutual funds transactions and new asset management products as well as higher advisory and transaction fees. It is noted that the commision income from loans derives from loans that are not measured in fair value through profit or loss.

Impairment losses and provisions to cover credit risk The following table presents the impairment losses and provisions to cover credit risk on loans and advances to customers and other financial instruments, financial guarantee contracts, other assets, recoveries: The calculation of expected credit losses incorporates a sale scenario with 100% probability for the loan portfolios that are classified as Held for Sale. “Impairment losses/(gains)” on loans for 2024 include the below charges related to portfolios that have been classified as “Assets Held for Sale” (note 52): a. losses of € 137 mil. for non-performing mortgage and wholesale loans with GBV € 565 mil. as at 31.12.2024 (GAIA II perimeter), b. losses of € 38 mil. for non-performing mortgage loans with GBV € 464 mil. as at 31.12.2024 (GAIA I perimeter), c. losses of € 24 of Cypriot Non-Performing loans with a total GBV of € 135 as at 31.12.2024. “Losses from modifications of contractual terms of loans and advances to customers” in 2023, also include the Bank’s initiative to cap the interest rates of specific perimeter. Specifically, the Bank announced on 11.4.2023 that from 2.5.2023 and for a period of 12 months will reward performing mortgage loan customers with floating-rate mortgage loans (as well as with floating consumer loans collateralized with a mortgage) by introducing a cap to the base rate, in order to protect borrowers against future increases in reference rates. During the current period the Group estimated that the extension for one more year of the protection program against the increase in interest rates for consistent borrowers of floating rate mortgages constitutes in essence an adjustment of the base interest rates to the current market interest rates for similar loans; thereby contributing to customer retention. Therefore, the modification of the cash flows of the loans due to the extension of the protection was accounted for as a recalculation of their effective interest rate. The group has included additional provisions from post model adjustments (PMA) as described in note 47.1 Amounts related to loans and advances to customers for which there was modification of the contractual terms are categorized as stage 2 or 3 or loans Purchased or originated credit impaired (POCI), are presented in the tables below.

Cash and balances with Central Banks Cash and cash equivalents (as presented in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows) 20. Due from financial institutions The Bank since 2016 participates in the collection of financial means to the Single Resolution Fund (SRF) in cash and in the form of irrevocable payment commitments (IPCs) backed by collateral at the disposal of the Fund. Payment commitments are accounted in accordance with IAS 37 as contingent liabilities, initially recognized as off balance sheet items, while subsequently assessed if the outflow of economic resources is probable that would lead to the recognition of a relevant provision. The cash amount pledged as collateral is recognized as a pledged asset in the Balance sheet. As of 31.12.2024 the outflow of resources was not considered probable, hence payment commitments are treated as contingent liabilities. For the years 2016-2024 the notional amount of collateral provided for irrevocable payment commitments is € 30. After the cancellation of the appeal filed by a French banking institution for the return of the collateral related to irrevocable payment commitments, which was submitted following the revocation of its banking license, the Bank is awaiting the outcome of the appeal filed by the French banking institution before the General Court of the European Union, . This will allow the Bank to assess whether the relevant accounting treatment should be amended. In the event of an unfavorable court decision and depending on the legal wording of the ruling, the maximum amount by which the Bank’s net equity could be impacted would be € 30 with no effect on the Group’s capital ratios, as the total amount of irrevocable payment commitments is deducted from supervisory capital. 21.

The previous installments of € 198 and € 197 were paid on 1 December 2023 and 2 December 2022 respectively. The carrying amount of the shareholding of the Bank in the Guarantee Fund Deposit Scheme as of 31.12.2024 amounted to € 0 (31.12.2023: € 200). “Tax advances and withholding taxes” is presented in the table above net of provisions of € 21 as at 31.12.2024 (31.12.2023: € 52). As at 31.12.2024 the Group valued “Property obtained from auctions and other inventories” which have been classified as Other Assets, at the lower between their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. For cases where the net realizable value of the properties was less that their carrying value, an impairment loss of has recognised an impairment loss of € 3 (31.12.2023: € 1) has been recognised. The impairment amount was recognized in “Impairment losses on fixed assets and participations” in the Income Statement. The recoverable amount of land and buildings that were impaired during the year amounted to € 4 (31.12.2023: €2). Within 2024 the Group transferred assets with a carrying amount of € 12 from “Assets Held for Sale” to “Other Assets” and specifically to “Property obtained from auctions and other inventories” as they did not meet the definition of assets held for sale and there was a change in their use. “Accrued income” includes a contact asset of an amount of € 10 (31.12.2023: € 7) which relates to the performance bonus from the distribution of insurance products based on relevant agreement. More specifically, this amount represents income recognised from performance obligations satisfied up to 31.12.2024. The Group’s right to the total consideration will become unconditional 10 years following the date of the signing of the agreement, therefore the consideration amount is variable and subject to the constraining estimate in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 15. However, considering that in essence there is no uncertainty with regards to the achievement of the target, it is assessed that the estimate of variable consideration is not constrained. The most significant change in the balance of contract asset during 2024 is the recognition of commission income from insurance brokerage fees amounting to € 3 related to the performance bonus. Moreover, taking into account the credit rating of the counterparty and the payment history, no impairment loss has been recognised related to the contract asset.

Legal issues There are certain legal claims against the Group, deriving from the ordinary course of business. In the context of managing the operational risk events and based on the applied accounting policies, the Group has established internal controls and processes to monitor all legal claims and similar actions by third parties to assess the probability of a negative outcome and the potential loss. For cases where there is a significant probability of a negative outcome, and the result may be reliably estimated, the Group recognizes a provision that is included in the Balance Sheet under “Provisions”. As of 31.12.2024 the amount of the provision stood at € 20 (31.12.2023: € 29). For those cases, that according to their progress and the assessment of the legal department as at 31.12.2024, a negative outcome is not probable or the possible loss cannot be estimated reliably due to the complexity of the cases and their duration, the Group has not established a provision. As of 31.12.2024 the legal claims against the Group for the above cases amount to € 423 (31.12.2023: € 425) and € 34 (31.12.2023: € 62), respectively. According to the legal department’s estimation, the ultimate settlement of the claims and lawsuits is not expected to have a material effect on the financial position or the operations of the Group. b. Tax issues According to art.65A of Law 4174/2013 from the year 2011, the statutory auditors and auditing firms that conduct mandatory audits of societe anonymes are required to issue an annual tax compliance report regarding the application of the tax provisions in certain tax areas. Based on art.56 of Law 4410/3.8.2016 tax compliance reports are optional for the years from 1.1.2016 and thereon. Nevertheless, the intention of Alpha Services and Holdings S.A. is to continue receiving such tax compliance report. Alpha Services and Holdings S.A. has been audited by the tax authorities for the years up to and including 2010 as well as for the year 2014. Years 2011 to 2018 are considered as closed, in accordance with the Ministerial Decision 1208/20.12.2017 of the Independent Public Revenue Authority. For the years from 2011 up to an including 2023 the Company has received tax compliance report, according to the article 82 of Law 2238/1994 and the article 65A of Law 4174/2013, with no qualification. Tax audit in connection with the tax compliance report of 2024 is in progress. Alpha Bank S.A. emerged from the hive-down of the banking sector and started its operation on 16.4.2021 and the first fiscal year is from 1.7.2020 to 31.12.2021. Alpha Bank S.A. has received a tax compliance report for its first tax year from 1.7.2020 to 31.12.2021 and for tax years 2022 and 2023, according to the article 65A of Law 4174/2013, with no qualification. Tax audit in connection with the tax compliance report of 2024 is in progress. The Bank’s branch in Luxembourg started its operation on June 2020 and has not been tax audited since its operation. Based on Ministerial Decision 1006/5.1.2016 there is no exemption from tax audit by the tax authorities to those entities that have been tax audited by the independent statutory auditor and they have received an unqualified tax compliance report. Therefore, the tax authorities may reaudit the tax books. Additional taxes, interest on late submission and penalties may be imposed by tax authorities, as a result of tax audits for unaudited tax years, the amount of which cannot be accurately determined. Information regarding the unaudited tax years of the Group subsidiaries is provided in Note 44. In December 2022, the European Council adopted the EU Directive 2022/2523 for a global minimum tax that is expected to be used by individual jurisdictions. The goal of the framework is to reduce the shifting of profit from one jurisdiction to another, in order to reduce global tax obligations in corporate structures. In March 2022, the OECD released detailed technical guidance on Pillar Two of the rules. As at the date of approval of these annual financial statements, most of the jurisdictions where the Group operates have already incorporated these changes into their domestic legislation with the exception of Serbia which has not enacted legislation to incorporate these rules of Pillar II into its national law yet. As far as Greece is concerned, Law 5100/2024 published in the Official Gazette on 5 April 2024, incorporated the EU Council Directive into Greek legislation and it closely follows the provisions of the EU Pillar Two Directive. The law includes detailed provisions on safe harbors, including a Transitional Country-by-Country (CbC) reporting Safe Harbor, a Transitional Undertaxed Profits Rule Safe Harbor, as well as a permanent Qualifying Domestic Minimum Top-Up Tax Safe Harbor. The Group has already taken every necessary action to re-assess the potential impact of those rules on the Group. In particular, the assessment under the safe harbor rules for the 2024 fiscal year has been completed, and the results showed that the Group meets the relevant criteria in all jurisdictions where it operates, therefore no liability arises for payment of top-up tax. The Company has not calculated Deferred Tax Asset or Deferred Tax Liability as a result of Tax calculation of Pillar II c. Off balance sheet commitments The Group, as part of its normal course of business, enters into contractual commitments, with its customers. Due to its nature, these commitments are monitored in off balance sheet accounts and relate to letters of credit, letters of guarantee and liabilities from undrawn loan commitments as well as guarantees given for bonds issued and other guarantees to subsidiary companies. Letters of credit are used to facilitate trading activities and relate to the financing of contractual agreements for the transfer of goods locally or abroad, through direct payment to the third party on behalf of the Group’s customers. Letters of credit, as well as letters of guarantee, are commitments under specific terms and are issued by the Group for the purpose of ensuring that its customers will fulfill the terms of their contractual obligations. In addition, contingent liabilities for the Group arise from undrawn loan commitments that can be utilized only if certain requirements are fulfilled by counterparties. The outstanding balances are as follows: 31.12.2024 31.12.2023 Letters of credit 128 48 Letters of guarantee and other guarantees 5,608 5,107 Undrawn loan commitments 4,554 5,278 The above balances also include Alpha Bank Romania SA figures The Group measures the expected credit losses for all the undrawn loan commitments and letters of credit/letters of guarantee € 24(31.12.2023: € 40), which are presented in “Provisions”.

Mutual funds under Group Management The Group, through its subsidiary Alpha Asset Management AEDAK, manages 66 (31.12.2023: € 58) mutual funds which meet the definition of structured entities and at each reporting date, it assesses whether it controls any of these according with the provisions of IFRS 10. The Group, acting as the manager of the mutual funds has the ability to direct the activities which significantly affect the level of their return by selecting the investments made by the funds within the framework of permitted investments as described in the regulation of each fund. As a result, the Group has power over the mutual funds under management but within a clearly defined decision making framework. Moreover the Group is exposed to variable returns through its involvement in the mutual funds as it receives fees for the purchase, redemption and management of the funds under normal market levels for similar services. The Group also holds direct investments in some of the funds under management, the level of which is assessed to be determined whether it leads to a significant variability in its returns compared to the variability of the respective total rate of return of the mutual fund. Due to these factors, the Group assessed that, for all mutual funds under management, it exercises, for the benefit of unit holders, the decision making rights assigned to it acting as an agent without controlling the mutual funds. The following table presents the total assets of the mutual funds under management but not controlled by the Group by category of investment. During the year 2024, the commission income from the management fees of these Mutual Funds amounted to € 54 (31.12.2023: € 36).

The carrying amount of the investment in mutual funds as at 31.12.2024 amounts to € 556 (31.12.2023: € 426). The change in the fair value of the aforementioned mutual funds during the year 2024 resulted in a gain of € 33 (year 2023: gain of € 25). It is noted that there is no contractual obligation for the Group to provide financial support to any of the mutual funds under management nor does it guarantee their rate of return. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 327 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT b. Securitisation non-consolidated structured entities The Group holds 100% of the senior notes and 5% of the mezzanine and junior notes that were issued by the structured entities Orion Securitization DAC, Galaxy II Funding DAC, Galaxy IV Funding DAC and Cosmos Securitization DAC in the context of non-performing loan securitization transactions in previous years. The Group does not exercise control over the activities of the above entities. The following table presents the carrying amount of notes that the Group holds and the related results. Profit or Loss 31.12.2024 Carrying Amount Gain Less Losses on 31.12.2024 Interest Income Impairment Losses Financial Transactions Loans and Advances to Customers measured at Amortised Cost Notes issued by special purpose entities 4,902 27 4 Loans and Advances to Customers measured at fair value through profit or loss Notes issued by special purpose entities 1 Profit or Loss 31.12.2023 Carrying Amount Gain Less Losses on 31.12.2023 Interest Income Impairment Losses Financial Transactions Loans and Advances to Customers measured at Amortised Cost Notes issued by special purpose entities 5,161 28 Loans and Advances to Customers measured at fair value through profit or loss Notes issued by special purpose entities 2 1 The total nominal value of notes issued from the above entities as at 31.12.2024 amounts to € 13.6 bil. (31.12.2023:13.8 bil.). The Group has granted loans with a carrying amount of € 99 as at 31.12.2024 (31.12.2023: € 104.) to the special purpose entities Orion Securitization DAC, Galaxy II Funding DAC, Galaxy IV Funding DAC and Cosmos Securitization DAC for the purpose of financing their reserves. The net income recognized by the Group from the above loans in 2024 amounted to gain of € 1 (2023: € 1). As at 31.12.2024 the cash deposits of the above entities with the Group amount to € 222 (31.12.2023: € 199) In connection with the Group’s commitments resulting from these securitization transactions, it should be noted that the transferred securitized portfolios included letters of guarantee. In case of forfeiture of any of them, the payment to the third party (to whom the letter of guarantee is addressed) is made from special deposit accounts, with reserved balances, held by the aforementioned special purpose entities with the Group. Moreover, the Group has committed to issue letters of guarantee for the above securitization companies up to the total amount of € 350., through a relevant loan facility limit, for which a commission is received. In case of forfeiture of any guarantee, the amount paid becomes immediately due and the capital amount is repaid through the securitization current accounts, while the amount of interest and other commissions is repaid through the reserves of the securitization company and in case these are not sufficient, it takes a high order priority of payment and is repaid on the coupon payment dates of the bonds. It is noted that the Group has committed to provide financing, on behalf of the aforementioned securitization entities, to the special purpose entities set up for the acquisition of properties or shareholdings (REOCOs), through the signing of bond loan agreements. In the event that a relevant loan is required to be granted under these contracts, this is transferred directly to the securitization company that holds the securitized portfolio, with an advance payment of the transfer consideration, from a relevant reserve that is held by the securitization company. In the event that the consideration is not paid in advance, the Group is not obliged to proceed with the loan disbursement and therefore the Group’s exposure to credit risk from the above transaction is zero. It is noted that the legal transfer of said claims has already taken place at the time of the securitization in the form of a transfer of future claims under the specific bond loans. The above companies have deposits with the Group of € 31 mil. as at 31.12.2024 (31.12.23 € 40 mil.). The aforementioned carrying amounts of bonds and loans, together with the commitments of the Group to provide loans and guarantees, constitute the maximum possible exposure of the Group to the special purpose entities, established in the context of the Galaxy and Cosmos transactions. The Group, in the context of loan portfolios’ synthetic securitization transactions, has entered into financial guarantee contracts with the special purpose entities Aurora SME I DAC, Alpha Compass DAC and Alpha Blue Finance DAC for the acquisition of credit protection for a part of credit losses of the securitized portfolios. The above special purpose entities have issued bonds that were covered by third parties not affiliated with the Group, and the proceeds from their issuance are collateral for the Group’s compensation in case of forfeiture of the guarantee. The Group has significant influence over these entities since, although their activities are predetermined, it reserves the right to make decisions on specific core activities that mainly relate with the management of the collateral and its investment in eligible securities according to predetermined criteria. Since there is no Group exposure to the equity instruments of the above entities, the equity method is not applicable. The Group pays a commission to the special purpose entities for the provision of the guarantee and has also undertaken to cover their expenses. The related expenses recognize in 2024 amounted to € 45. (2023: € 31). The nominal value of the bonds issued by these entities amounted to € 376 (31.12.2023 € 426). The Group participates, jointly with another lender, in the financing of the special purpose entity Iside Spv Srl, which was established for the purpose of financing a real estate investment company in the context of the Italian Securitization Law. Based on this law, the financing provided to the special purpose entity is collateralized with mortgages of the ultimate debtor, while the repayment of the financing reflects the repayment schedule of the loan granted by the special purpose entity to the ultimate debtor. As the company’s main activity is related to its issued bonds, for which decisions are taken jointly with the other lender, the Group has joint control over the special purpose entity. The amount of said financing as of 31.12.2024 € 49 (31.12.2023: € 56)., while the net results recognized in the Group accounts from said financing amount to a gain € 4 (2023: € 5). CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 328 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT c. Other Special structured entities In addition, the Group has investments in special purpose entities through its participation in venture capital mutual funds which it does not manage as well as in companies subject to the issuance of securities secured by its assets (asset-backed securities). The following table analyzes the said participations of the Group. As an indication of the size of the non-consolidated structured entities the total assets of the funds based on most recent available balance sheet and the total nominal value of asset-backed securities are given.

This commitment, together with the carrying value of the investment, represents the Group's maximum exposure to these investments. From its shares in asset-backed securities, the Group recognized interest income of € 1 for the 2024 financial year (31.12.2023: €1) and no gains or losses (31.12.2023: € 0) were recognized in the Statement of profit or loss.

Risk Management The Group has designed and implements a framework for managing the risks it faces, taking into account the best banking practices and regulatory requirements. In accordance with common European legislation and the current system of common banking rules, principles and standards, this system is constantly evolving to ensure that the Group's corporate governance is effective. 1. RISK MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK 1.1 Risk Management Governance The Board of Directors (BoD) supervises the overall operations of the Risk Management Funcition. The BoD has established a Board Risk Management Committee (RMC), which convenes, on a monthly basis and reports to the Board of Directors. The Committee recommends to the Board of Directors the risk undertaking and capital management strategy, checks its implementation and evaluates its adequacy and effectiveness. The risk management framework and its effectiveness are reassessed on a regular basis, in order to ensure compliance with best practices as well as the supervisory and regulatory requirements. For a more comprehensive and effective identification and monitoring of all types of risks, Management Committees have been established (Assets and Liabilities Management Committee, Non - Financial Risks and Internal Control Committee, Credit Risk Committee, Group Sustainability Committee and Reputational Risk Committee). 1.2 Risk management Unit The Group Chief Risk Officer supervises the Group’s Risk Management Function. Under the responsibility of the Risk Management Function regular and ad hoc reports are submitted to the Management Committees, the Risk Management Committee and the Group’s Board of Directors. These reports cover the management of all types of risks. As far as credit risk is concerned the reporting covers the following areas: • The risk profile of portfolios by rating grade. • The transition among rating grades (migration matrix). • The estimation of the relevant risk parameters by rating grade, group of clients, etc. • The trends of basic rating criteria. • The changes in the rating process, the criteria or in each specific parameter. • The concentration risk (by risk type, sector, country, collateral, portfolio etc.). • The evolution of Loan exposures, +90 days past due loans, Non-Performing exposures and the monitoring of KPIs on a Group basis. • The Cost of Risk. • The IFRS 9 Staging transition of exposures per asset class. • The maximum risk appetite (credit risk appetite) per country, sector, currency, Business Unit, limit breaches and mitigation plans. 1.3 Organizational Structure The following Risk Management Business Areas operate under the supervision of the Group Chief Risk Officer in the Group, that have the responsibility for the immediate implementation of risk management framework in accordance with the guidelines of the Risk Management Committee. • Chief Risk Control Officer - Credit Risk and Enterprise Risk Modelling - Credit Control - Climate, ESG and Enterprise Risk Management - Non-Financial Risks Control - Market Risk Control • Chief Credit Officer - Wholesale Credit - Retail Credit • Risk Models and Data Validation 47.1 Credit Risk For credit risk Management purposes, lending facilities are separated into Wholesale and Retail as described below. 1. WHOLESALE BANKING CREDIT FACILITIES Wholesale Banking credit facilities are provided to companies with a turnover > € 10 million or with a credit limit > € 1 million. 1.1 Credit Risk approval process The Group, following best international practices and taking into account the prevailing institutional framework set by legislation, regulations, ministerial decrees/decisions etc., has designed a robust credit risk framework, where the main principles, guidelines, procedures followed and the responsibilities of involved Business Areas and Relationship Managers are clearly defined, based on the four eyes principle. In this context, all credit proposals are prepared by the Product Business Areas, are reviewed by the competent Credit Business Areas and are assessed by the competent Credit Committee based on the total credit exposure, the obligor’s credit risk rating, the provided collaterals and the Environmental, Social and Governance Risk (ESG) rating at obligor, transaction and overall level. The limits of the Wholesale Banking Credit Committees are determined in accordance with the Total Credit Risk, which is defined as the aggregate of all credit facilities to a single company or group of related companies including any financing provided to their owners which can be approved by the Group. Credit Committees decide on: • Approval of the terms of new loans, renegotiations or restructuring of existing credit facilities. • Approval of the loan pricing, considering the overall profitability of a client’s relationship based on the Risk Adjusted Return on Risk Adjusted Capital - RARORAC (historical RARORAC – RARORAC based on the outcome of the proposed suggestion). • Credit Limit Expiration/Renewal date (depending on the customer’s credit risk zone) and any deviations from the rule. • Amendment on the collateral structure. • Decision for actions in case of activation of early warning triggers. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 332 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • Financial Difficulty assessment. • Unlikeliness to Pay (UTP) assessment. • Credit Rating grading. • Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) risk rating at obligor, transaction, and overall level. 1.2 Credit Risk Measurement and Internal Ratings The assessment of the borrowers’ creditworthiness and their scaling into credit risk categories is performed through rating systems. The objective of the credit risk rating systems, for Wholesale Banking Customers, is the estimation of the probability that the borrowers will not meet their contractual obligations to the Group and the estimation of the Expected Credit Loss. The rating of the Group’s borrowers with the use of credit risk rating systems constitutes a basic tool for: • The decision-making process of Credit Committees for the approval/ renewal of credit limits and the implementation of the appropriate pricing policy (interest rate spreads etc.). • The estimation of the future behavior of borrowers which belong to a group with similar characteristics. • The timely identification of potential troubled credit facilities and the prompt plan of the required actions for the minimization of the expected loss for the Group. • The assessment of the Group’s loan portfolio quality and the credit risk undertaken. The rating systems employed by the Bank and the Group entities are the Alpha Bank Rating System (ABRS) and Moody’s Credit Lens which incorporate different credit rating models (including Slotting scorecards). All current and potential clients of the Group are assessed based on the appropriate credit risk rating model and within the predefined time frames. For the estimation of the probability of default of the borrowers of the Group, the credit risk rating models evaluate a number of parameters, which can be grouped as follows: • Financial analysis: borrower’s Financial Ability (liquidity ratios, debt to income, etc.) • Borrower’s position in the market environment in which operates compared to its competitors in the sector it belongs. • Transactional behaviour of the borrower both to the Group and third parties (debt in arrears, adverse transaction records, etc). • Borrower’s qualitative characteristics (integrity and succession plan of the management, appropriate infrastructure and equipment etc.). The credit rating models which are currently employed by the Group are differentiated according to: • The turnover of the companies. • The level of the total credit risk of the companies. • The credit facility’s specific characteristics. • The available information for the borrower’s assessment. Specifically, for the financial analysis the differentiation relates to the type of the local accounting standards applied, the accounting framework applied (financial services, insurance services ect.) and whether the financial statements are prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards. For each of the credit rating models, different parameters may be used, each of which contributes in a specific manner the relevant assessment. 1.3 Borrowers Rating Scale Borrowers are rated in the following rating scales: ΑΑ, Α+, Α, A-, ΒΒ+, ΒΒ, ΒΒ-, B+, Β, Β-, CC+, CC, CC-, C, D, D0, D1, D2 For special purpose finance (Structured Finance and Shipping Financing) special models have been designed (slotting) with the following categorization scale: Strong (Category 1), Good (Category 2), Satisfactory (Category 3), Weak (Category 4), Default (D, D0, D1, D2). The mapping of the above Ratings to Credit Risk Zones follows: Credit Risk Zones Rating Scale Specialized Lending Categorization ΑΑ Α+ Low Α Strong (Category 1) Α- ΒΒ+ ΒΒ Medium ΒΒ- Good (Category 2) Β+ Β Acceptable Satisfactory (Category 3) Β- CC+ Moderate Risk – Watch List - CC CC- High Weak (Category 4) C Default status: With objective trigger events of inability to pay their D obligations In arrears D0 Default Denouncement of Loan Agreement D1 Issuance of a Payment Order D2 There is no one to one mapping between credit risk rating models and special purpose finance models (slotting) and especially as it regards Watch List rating category, as above presented. 2. RETAIL BANKING CREDIT FACILITIES Retail banking involves the lending facilities offered by the Group and fall under one of the following categories: • Housing loans/Mortgages CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 333 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • Consumer Loans and Credit Cards • Small businesses (SB): Entrepreneurs with credit limit up to Euro 1 million and Personal Companies and Legal entities with turnover up to Euro 5 million and credit limit up to Euro 1 million. 2.1 Credit Risk Approval Process The Group has developed and implements a credit policy framework (taking into account the legislative and supervisory /regulatory framework) on which the Group’s Retail Banking lending procedures are based on. Additionally, it has developed and put into effect a system of key principles, processes and internal operating rules that are govern its lending activities and ensure the smooth and safe management of the risk undertaken. The main principles and rules that are applicable for the operations of Retail Banking lending are the following: • Sound lending management. • Prudent customer selection based on specific credit criteria • Correlation of risks and returns and development of a pricing policy, loans’ coverage with collaterals taking into account the credit risk • Monitoring and management of the Total Credit Risk, which refers to the aggregate amount of all revolving limits of the obligor, the balances of one off lending facilities and specifically for small businesses the total balance of the approved lending facilities provided to the companies’ stakeholders. Additionally, lending facilities for which the customer is guarantor or co-debtor are also considered. Individuals: The credit approval process for individuals (persons with income from salaries, pensions or other sources of income not related with business activities) is performed based on the classification of borrowers into risk groups, which represent a specific level of undertaken risk. The level of risk undertaken by the Group is adjusted, when deemed necessary, according to its credit policy. Small Businesses: The creditworthiness of Small Businesses fall under the responsibility of the Retail Banking is heavily related to the creditworthiness of the company’s stakeholders/managers of the company and vice versa. Therefore, the evaluation of the applications in this category is based on two dimensions: • The valuation of the creditworthiness of company’s stakeholders or business managers and the guarantors. • The valuation of the creditworthiness of the company. 2.2 Internal models The fundamental parameter in measuring the credit risk of Retail Banking is the credit risk models developed and utilized throughout the credit risk cycle, both for the Bank and the Group companies. The abovementioned models segment the population into homogeneous risk groups (pools) and are categorized into: • Behavior Models, which assess the client’s behavior and predict the probability of default within the following months. • Application Credit Scoring Models. These models assess application data, mainly demographic and predict the probability of default within the following months. These models and the estimations for the probability of default that derive from them play a significant role in risk management and decision-making process throughout the Group’s operations. The areas that these models are used are the following: • Decision-making process for granting /renewal of credit limit. • Impairment assessment. • Forecasting the future behavior of clients that belong in pool with similar characteristics. • The timely identification of potential troubled credit facilities and the prompt plan of required actions for the minimization of the expected loss for the Group. • The assessment of the Group’s loan portfolio quality and the credit risk undertaken. The parameters considered vary, according to the model’s type and product category that it assesses. Indicatively, some factors are: • Personal / demographic data, like the customer’s age, profession, marital status, or current address. • Loan characteristics, like the product applied for, loan term in the portfolio, the purpose of financing. • Behavioral data of loan during a recent period, like payments during the most recent period, maximum delinquency, outstanding loan balance versus loan limit and the transaction type. • Qualitative data, like the activity sector and the company type. Models are validated and updated on an annual basis and are subject to constant quality control, to ensure their predictive ability at any point in time. Furthermore, on a regular basis the Group conducts exercises simulating crisis situations (Stress Tests), which explore the potential impact on the financial results of the Group due to unfavorable developments both in obligors’ transactional behavior, as well as in the broader financial economic environment. For presentation purposes of the table “Loans by credit quality and IFRS 9 Stage” for Retail Banking Loans the classification in “Strong”, “Satisfactory” and “Watchlist” categories, is generally based on the twelve-month Probability of Default, weighted by the three IFRS9 macro scenarios, as well as the Staging criteria and EBA status. Specifically, for Alpha Bank Greece, the range of probabilities that determines this classification, was derived from an analysis aiming at optimizing the discriminatory power between categories. Therefore, ranges might differ per portfolio and per subsidiary. For the Bank, the range of probability of default which defines the classification of a loan is presented in the table below: CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 334 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Range of probability of default Rating Classification Mortgages Consumer Credit cards Small Businesses Strong up to 5% up to 5% up to 3% up to 5% Satisfactory from 5% up to 13% from 5% up to 13% from 3% up to 13% from 5% up to 13% Watchlist over 13% over 13% over 13% over 13% CREDIT CONTROL According to risk management and control framework, there are three “lines of defense” with distinctive roles and responsibilities, with Business and Operations Units being the first “line of defense”, Risk Management Units the second “line of defense” and the Internal Audit Unit the third “line of defense”. In the context of the operation of the second “line of defense” and within the single context of operations set out for the sectors of Retail Banking, Wholesale Banking and Wealth Management, the Group carries out credit controls in order to optimize Credit Risk management, to confirm the quality of the loan portfolio and ensure that the first “line of defense” operates within the framework set out for effective Credit Risk management. The operation of the second “line of defense” is independent and aims, among else, to: • Design and develop procedures and controls for credit risk management. • Monitor the adequacy and effectiveness of existing credit risk management procedures. • Highlight critical issues that occur and possible deviations from the Group’s Manuals and Policies. • Provide guidelines and instructions concerning the credit risk management and control procedures. • Provide information to Units of interest about the findings of the controls and possible recommendations made. At the same time, depending on the scope of the controls, a summary of the findings and recommendations is sent to the Units of the Group that participate in the procedure and to the General Management (to the competent Chief). Risk Models and Data Validation The Group, recognizing the inherent risk in credit risk models due to their complexity and their high degree of dependence on parameters estimated from other models, has established a Model Risk Management Framework which includes the principles of the Model Development Policy and the Model Validation Framework. In particular, the independent Business Area Risk Models and Data Validation , on the basis of specific procedures, shall validate all models used for the purposes of calculating expected credit loss. The role of Risk Models and Data Validation Business Area, in the context of the Model Risk Management Framework (MRM Framework), includes responsibilities related to the monitoring of the performance of the models developed by the competent Business Area (Credit Risk and Enterprise Risk Modelling). The primary task of the Risk Models and Data Validation Business Area is the independent validation of the reliability of the models, their appropriateness, as well as the compliance with the regulatory guidelines. Risk Models and Data Validation Business Area responsibility is to develop procedures for the evaluation of models’ performance, on a periodic basis. The frequency and the extent of the validation process is determined from the significance of the models, that takes into account among other criteria, the size and the complexity of the portfolio. The associated level of inherent model risk is determined from the methodology for the grading of significance of the models (Model Tiering) which subsequently determines the frequency, the extent and the intensity of the validation. In addition, the Risk Models and Data Validation Business Area audits, as a second “line of defense”, the effectiveness of the design of the data governance framework in accordance with supervisory guidelines and procedures. It performs assessments of the operational effectiveness of the risk data collection processes as well as monitoring the accurate and timely implementation of reports, through regular or ad hoc controls. Furthermore, it defines indicators for monitoring and performance of data quality by developing an action plan for their resolution, in cooperation with the relevant Business Areas CREDIT RISK MITIGATION Collaterals Collaterals are received in order to mitigate credit risk that may arise from the obligor’s inability to fulfill his contractual obligations, either at the loan origination date, or during the loan life, either by consensus or after forced executions, auctions, etc. Collaterals include all kind of assets and rights which are made available to the Group either by their debtors or by third parties, in order to be used as complementary repayment sources of respective receivable. In any case, the necessary legal audit of the collaterals provided is carried out, in order to ensure their validity, as well as the possibility of being liquidated or to come into the possession of the Group. Collaterals are classified into two broad categories: a) Intangible and b) Tangible collaterals. a) The main type of intangible collateral used in lending is the Guarantee. A guarantee constitutes the legal relationship between the guarantor and the lender (Bank), through which the guarantor assumes the responsibility that the debt will be paid. The guarantor can be an individual or a legal entity and the guarantee can be provided for future or conditional debt. It is noted that the intangible collaterals include the guarantees of the Greek State which in case that are integral part of the loan, are taken into account in the calculation of expected credit losses, compared to other intangible collaterals that are not taken into account in the calculation of expected loss. b) Tangible collaterals are distinguished between mortgages and prenotation on mortgages which are registered on real estate properties and pledges over movable assets (e.g., commodities, checks, bills of exchange) or on claims and rights. For better assurance of the credit facilities granted, mortgaged and, where applicable, pledged collaterals assets are covered by an insurance contract, with assignment of the relevant insurance contract to the Bank. Mortgages are registered on real estate properties which can be liquidated and more specifically on: Residential Real Estate, Commercial Real Estate, Industrial Buildings, Land, Mines, Ships or aircraft and engines, whether or not movable, Machinery or other facilities (if they are either essential components of immovable property or any annexes thereto). According to the Group’s Credit Policy, the existence and the valuation of collaterals are closely monitored. During the valuation, in addition to the characteristics of the property, the property’s exposure to climate risks is taken into account, such as risk of fire, flood or drought, as well as any burdensome characteristics that may affect its value. The property valuations are performed on an annual basis for all real estate types, except for those cases where something different is foreseen contractually, in cases of known changes on the property or in the business course, or in case there are urban planning changes or any other considerable factors. In addition to the review of collateral values, the Group also validates such collateral values on an annual basis. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 335 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The initial valuations of a real estate property, provided as collateral, are carried out through an on-site visit of the appraiser and internal inspection. The revaluations of real estate properties, which collateralize performing exposures, are mainly carried out through: • The Bank of Greece’s residential property price index for exposures up to Euro 3 million, for residential properties. • Authorized appraisers, after their visit to the residential property used as collateral or via desktop valuation, if the amount of exposure exceeds Euro 3 million. • The Bank of Greece’s commercial property price index (for the perimeter of the collaterals available) or the CRE price index that has been developed by Alpha Real Estate Services for other categories of commercial properties, used as collateral, on performing exposures of amount up to Euro 1 million. • Authorized appraisers, after their visit to the commercial property used as collateral or via desktop appraisal, if the exposure exceeds Euro 1 million. The revaluations for properties used as collateral for non-performing exposures, are mainly carried out through: • The Bank of Greece’s residential property price index, for residential properties linked to at least one non-performing exposure but the total amount of linked exposures does not exceed Euro 300 thousand. • The Bank of Greece’s commercial property price index (for the perimeter of the collaterals available) or the CRE price index that has been developed by Alpha Real Estate Services for other categories of commercial property, used as collateral, linked to at least one non-performing exposure but the total amount of linked exposures does not exceed Euro 300 thousand. • Authorized engineers of Alpha Real Estate Services after their visit to the property used as collateral, if the borrower is cooperative, or by desktop valuation if the borrower is not cooperative and provided that either the property is collateral linked to at least one non-performing exposure and the total amount of linked exposures exceeds of Euro 300 thousand or in the cases where the indices are not appropriate for the type of the property under revaluation. Mortgaged properties must be secured throughout the duration of the loan, at the expense of the debtor and with insurance policy terms approved by the Group, against fire, earthquake and flood risks. The Group in the context of the credit control process performs on a regular basis and through proper sampling, audits over the procedures of implementation of the Group Loan Collateral Policy as well as back-testing for the verification of property valuations. Audits relate to valuations based either on indices or on individual valuations, in order to confirm that the proper depiction of property values in Group’s systems in accordance with the values indicated in the relevant approvals of the competent Committees. Pledge is the property right on movable assets, rights, claims and securities that gives the pledged lender the privilege to be satisfied with priority by the sale or liquidation thereof. Pledges can be registered on movable assets, securities, rights or claims that have not been excluded or disallowed from transactions and can be liquidated including raw materials, products or commodities, machinery (movable), bill of lading, bill of exchange, cheques, securities, deposit and any type of claim that can be pledged. The frequency of the valuation varies according to the right or asset on which the pledge may be registered, up to a maximum of one year. Acceptable Value During the approval process, the Group calculates the value of the collaterals received based on the potential proceeds that could arise from liquidation. This estimation is referred to as the acceptable value of the assets provided as collaterals for loans and for its determination the quality of the assets as well as their market value are considered. In this way, the rates for acceptable values are determined for each type of collateral, which are expressed as a percentage of their market value, nominal or weighted value, depending on the type of the collateral. CREDIT RISK EARLY WARNING SYSTEM In the context of optimal management of lending and the timely identification of non-performing loans, the Group has developed and implements a Credit Risk Early Warning System, which is defined as the aggregation of actions, processes and reports required to ensure the early identification of events, at borrower (corporate and individuals) and portfolio level, which may deviate from the Bank's Credit Risk Appetite or may lead to an increase in exposures with overdue debts or an increase in exposures with significant increase in credit risk. The Group’s Credit Risk Early Warning System consists of the following stages: • Identification of early warning triggers • Actions (timely and appropriate action taken) • Monitoring the effectiveness of the procedure • Quality control of the procedure’s implementation The perimeter to which the Credit Risk Early Warning System is implemented at account level encompasses all performing exposures, as well as exposures up to 10 days-past-due for Retail Banking (beyond 11 days-past-due assignments for management) and up to 30 days past due for the Wholesale Banking portfolio which have not been forborne (PLs). Additionally, to the early identification and management of borrowers or loan portfolio segments with signals of deterioration, the Group also monitors through the Early Warning System the loan portfolio, regardless of days past due, to ensure that the evolution and performance of the lending portfolio are in accordance with the Bank’s and Group’s Credit Risk Appetite. The Group has also incorporated events related to the deterioration of the prospects of the borrower's sector of activity, natural disasters and Operating Risk, which relates to the normal business activity of the borrower. CLIMATE-RELATED, ENVIRONMENTAL - SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE (ESG) RISKS The Group, acknowledging the relevance and potential impact of the risks stemming from climate and environmental related factors, and especially climate change, and as part of its plan and in alignment with the respective external guidelines, has elaborated further on the ESG incorporation into the risk identification and materiality assessment processes and in the overall risk management framework, and is committed to monitoring, assessing, and managing these risks going forward. Leveraging on the work already performed in previous years the Bank has proceeded with targeted enhancements during 2024 in accordance Group’s ESG plan commitments. More specifically, the following activities have been performed: • The Group has enhanced its credit policy to incorporate the ESG obligor, transaction and overall (combination of obligor and transaction) assessment, into its credit approval process. • The Group has developed a Reputational Risk Policy which defines the main principles, processes and governance structure for effectively managing the reputational risk exposures. The Policy also addresses reputational risk stemming from ESG factors. • The Bank has updated its Risk Inventory that it maintains and evaluates (ICAAP Report) to provide a comprehensive overview of enhancements and progress achieved in climate and environmental-related risks in the Bank's Risk Registry. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 336 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • The Group has enhanced its materiality assessment of climate and ESG risks incorporating time horizons (short/ 2025-medium/2030- long time/2050) and identifying the sectors that are most vulnerable to climate and environmental related risks. In addition, with respect to nature-related factors, the Bank has examined the “inside-out” and “outside-in” impact by utilizing the UNEP FI and ENCORE tool. In alignment with the guidance across different sources [e.g. ECB, European Banking Authority (EBA), European Commission], the Bank considers Climate and Environmental risks as a theme, i.e. as a transversal risk, incorporating such factors as drivers of existing financial and non-financial risk categories in its risk management framework. In the context of the materiality assessment for each risk category, the following is noted: a. Climate related risks: • Credit risk: o Transition risk : considered to be materially affected, both in the Non-Financial Corporate (NFC) portfolio and the Retail portfolio secured by Real Estate in the medium and long-term horizons. o Physical risk : It is, also, considered to be materially affected in the medium and long-term horizons, leveraging on the vulnerability assessment outcome per sector and region. • Operational risk: seems to be materially affected by transition and physical risks in the medium and long-term horizons as examined in terms of the Bank’s Own used Real Estate Properties. o As regards legal risk, and in particular greenwashing risk, also appears to be materially influenced by C&E risks over medium and long-term horizons, taking into account: (i) the HDB Guideline on Green Mortgage Loans and the HDB report 'Greenwashing monitoring and supervision' as well as the related HDB report on green loans and mortgages; (ii) the limited current number of exposures and the expected increased exposures in the future and (iii) the scenario related to Greenwashing risk: "Fine imposed to the Bank due to Greenwashing". • Market/Liquidity risk: currently assessed as immaterial to both transition and physical risks across time horizons. • Reputational risk: materially affected by C&E risks in the medium and long-term time horizons. The assessment has taken into consideration potential consequences in the reputation of the institution due to either Greenwashing Risk, or the risk associated with clients with a delayed response to transition risk. • Business & Strategic risk: • Transition risk: considered to be materially affected by transition risk over the medium- and long-term horizons. The assessment examines the Gross Interest and Fees & Commissions Income of the Bank’s performing portfolio within the ESG Sensitive Perimeter, following the same approach as credit risk. • Physical risk: considered to be materially affected by physical risks over the medium and long-term horizons. b. Nature related risks: • Credit risk: materially affected by nature-related risks (and more specifically by biodiversity) over long-term horizon. • Operational risk: materially affected by nature-related factors in the medium- and long-term horizons. • Market/ Liquidity risk: immaterially affected by nature-related risks across time horizons. • Reputational risk: materially affected by nature-related factors in the medium and long-term horizon. • Business & Strategic risk: materially affected by nature-related risks (and more specifically by biodiversity) over long-term horizon. c. Social related risks: • Credit risk: no material risks arise from the downstream portfolio due to the processes and controls applied by the institution, despite the fact that certain part of the NFC portfolio impacts social factors. • Operational risk: considered material in the short-medium and long-term. Specifically, the social topics considered as material are (a) for own workforce: the training & skills development, and (b) for consumers and end users: privacy, access to (quality) information and responsible marketing practices. d. Governance risks: The governance of corruption and bribery is considered significant in the short, medium, and long term. More information on ESG Materiality assessment is presented in the CSRD Report 2024. • The Bank has designed and implemented an internal report that includes ESG-related indicators regarding loans and advances. This report is presented quarterly to the Group Sustainability Committee (GSC) and the Risk Management Committee (RMC), and through the RMC, it is also presented in the Board of Directors. • The Group has incorporated ESG-related factors into its Remuneration Policy, reflecting its commitment to sustainable development and environmental risk management. • The Bank developed and distributed a questionnaire to its employees, to assess the organization's awareness of risk culture. • The Bank conducted targeted internal training sessions on ESG Overall Assessment, covering topics such as ESG Obligor Assessment, transaction assessment, and reputational risk assessment. • The Bank has carried out a systemic implementation for the assessment related to the CPRS sector and physical risk assessment. Through this centralized implementation, both credit assessment and reporting requirements are covered. Additionally, the Bank has established a greenwashing assessment process for its wholesale loan portfolio to ensure the proper green labeling of loans. To address the C&ESG risks, in 2024 the Bank has deployed a comprehensive strategic plan by carrying out the following key actions: • Identified, assessed, and prioritized the ESG issues related to its activities that may impact the Group’s operations and or its Stakeholders. Under this scope, a Double Materiality Analysis (DMA) was performed by leveraging the UNEP FI Principles for Responsible Banking (PRB) Tool, the RSCA inherent risk assessment and outcome from the Compliance Risk Assessments to identify the material Impacts, Risks and Opportunities (IROs) and connect these with the relevant European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) topics, subtopics or sub- subtopics under Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). • Enhanced the regular monitoring of ESG Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) in order to cover all material C&E risks (transition & physical for credit risk in NFCs and Collaterals, operational losses due to physical risk, social and governance risks, reputational risk due to ESG considerations, business & strategic risk through the monitoring of income reliance from sectors sensitive to transition risk). CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 337 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • Developed science-based financed emissions targets for material carbon-intensive sectors covering both lending and investment portfolios, in alignment with the Paris Agreement on climate change and net zero emissions by 2050. Moreover, the Group has already incorporated in its Risk Appetite Framework (RAF) a set of quantitative indicators and qualitative commitments regarding Climate and ESG risks. Specifically: • The Group integrated climate risks into its overall risk management framework. • In terms of quantitative indicators, the Group has enhanced Climate & Environment indicators designed to cover all material C&E risks which are included in its Risk and Capital Strategy (RCS). The material indicators have been upgraded to Tier II status, with appropriate limits set for more effective monitoring and management. • Enhanced credit assessment process is in place according to the "Climate related, Environmental, Social and Governance Risk Management Policy on Group’s Business Lending" incorporating additional dimensions of climate related and governance risks. • The Bank expanded its Exclusion List (i.e. the activities that it does not finance) to encompass additional activities with environmental and social impact, according to the United Nations “Universal Declaration of Human Rights”. • The Group has enhanced its due diligence process with respect to the assessment of its Customers’ ESG/climate risk profile, through the improvement of collection of relevant information. • The Group integrated information on the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) of relevant real estate properties within its credit decision making process as well as each collateral valuation subject to EPC eligibility. • The Bank has developed climate risk-specific methodologies to estimate the impact of transition on credit risk across different time horizons (short, medium and long term) by making use of leading global macroeconomic and sectoral models. Additional characteristics such as buildings’ energy efficiency, geographic and counterparty level characteristics are also incorporated in the estimation to further account for heterogeneity of impacts inherent in climate risks. These are examined as stand-alone climate scenarios and used under both the Economic and Normative perspective. Where applicable these scenarios are also applied on operational risk and business & strategic risks considering the relevant risk materiality assessment that has been performed. • Furthermore, the Bank has developed climate risk-specific methodologies to estimate the impact of physical risk (chronic and acute risks – specifically flood and wildfire) on credit risk across different time horizons (short, medium and long term) by making use of leading global macroeconomic and sectoral models, as well natural catastrophe models for Greece. Additional characteristics such as geographic and counterparty level characteristics are also incorporated in the estimation to further account for heterogeneity of impacts inherent in climate risks. These are examined as stand-alone climate scenarios and used under both the Economic and Normative perspective. Where applicable these scenarios are also applied on operational risk and business & strategic risks considering the relevant risk materiality assessment that has been performed. • In addition, regarding the Climate risk impact, the Bank has expanded its climate risk-specific methodologies to estimate the impact of climate scenarios on operational risk and business & strategic risks under Normative perspective apart from the impact quantification on economic perspective estimated in previous year. • The regular monitoring of ESG Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) were upgraded to Tier II status with limits set for more effective monitoring. If any of these limits are breached, the Bank will follow the same escalation process as with all non-C&E KRIs. In order to assess the impact of climate risk on the calculation of Expected Credit Loss (ECL), information on the location of collateral as well as information on EPCs is being collected. The information will be incorporated into the respective data systems and methodological approaches will be developed in order to adapt the models for calculating the ECL. More specifically, the following are in progress: • Data collections regarding ESG related information of the obligor through the use of the inter-banking ESG platform were ongoing on 2024. • Identification of needs for ESG-related data, utilization of the data collected for the borrower's assessment and enrichment with additional information, where required. • Further enhancement and recalibration of the Bank’s ESG scorecards leveraging the data above. • The models assessing environmental, governance and social risks are validated in line with the updated Group Credit Risk Models Validation Framework. • Identifying enhancements or additions to the current set of models used for risk parameter estimation and prediction, in order to integrate ESG risks. The Group continues to develop and implement its ambitious ESG Workplan, aiming to enhance the sustainability of its business model and to ensure long-term value creation for its Shareholders. ESG Risk Assessment in the context of the Credit Approval Process The ESG risk assessment is a key tool for the decision-making by the competent Committees. As part of the business lending approval and monitoring, an ESG assessment is carried out at the obligor, transaction, and overall level. The ESG assessment at obligor level is based on specific ESG questionnaires completed by the Clients. The type of questionnaire (e.g. sectoral, cross sectoral, simplified) that the Client is asked to complete depends mainly on the size of the company and its industry sector. The submitted questionnaire is scored using internal evaluation models. The outcome of the ESG assessment at obligor level may be High, Medium or Low risk. The ESG assessment at transaction level concerns the activity for which the client is applying or has received financing based on the information provided during the preparation of the credit request. The outcome of this assessment may be "sustainable" or "non-sustainable” financing based on the criteria set out in the Group's Sustainable Finance Framework. Sustainable financings are further distinguished into aligned or not aligned with the EU Taxonomy. Non-sustainable financings are classified as Low, Medium, or High ESG risk. The overall ESG assessment is a combination of the ESG assessment at obligor and transaction level and is captured per transaction. When the activity to be financed does not fall within the Exclusion List, the outcome of the overall ESG assessment may be: Sustainable, Low ESG impact, Medium ESG impact, Increased ESG impact. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 338 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Furthermore, in the Wholesale Banking portfolio, in the case of events that may result in a significant Reputational Risk to the Bank and its Group Companies, an assessment of these events is conducted by Reputational Risk Committee, and the outcome is considered by the competent approval committee. CREDIT RISK CONCENTRATION MANAGEMENT Concentration Risk is a specific form of credit risk and arises due to the low degree of diversification between counterparties, or group of counterparties, sectors, geographic regions, products or collaterals. The Group monitors on a regular basis concentration risk at sector level and at borrower/group of borrowers level as well, through detailed reporting which informs senior management and Committees of the Board of Directors. The Group categorizes the financed companies according to their NACE Rev.2 codes into Industry groups/Sectors, which are rated into risk zones. The Sectors ranking relative to their credit risk is carried out by an independent and certified company and is based on a predictive indicator that, focusing on future estimates rather than solely on past data, captures the risks and prospects of each sector. The Group determines the Credit Risk Appetite per sector and manages the concentration risk by monitoring the evolution of its portfolio. Additionally, the Group manages concentration risk at borrower/group of borrowers level by setting and monitoring compliance with limits set both by regulatory guidelines and by internal policies that have been developed taking into account the existing exposure as well as the credit risk rating of the borrowers. DEFINITIONS The following definitions are provided as guidance to the tables that follow: The Public Sector includes loans to the Central Government, the Local Authorities and the companies controlled and fully or partially owned by the State (excluding those engaged in commercial activity). As Past Due Exposures is considered the sum of the principal, interest and charges/commissions that have not been paid at the date it was due. A Default event is considered to have occurred, regarding a particular Borrower, when at least one of the following criteria has taken place: • Past Due Criterion: The Borrower is past due more than 90 consecutive days on any material amount of the credit obligation(s). Particularly, for Alpha Bank Greece, exposures at Alpha Leasing and ABC Factors are taken into consideration at the calculation of the Past Due Criterion. • Unlikeliness to Pay (UTP) Criterion: The Group considers that the Borrower is unlikely to pay when assesses as unlikely the repayment of obligations unless actions such as the liquidation of collaterals are enforced. Additionally, it is necessary to harmonize the classification of exposures in Default and the classification of exposures according to EBA and therefore any Forborne non-performing exposure (FNPL) or non-performing exposure (NPL) is considered as an exposure at Default. For Retail exposures, the above definition of Default is applied at the level of an individual credit facility. For Wholesale exposures, the definition of Default is applied at the obligor level meaning that when at least one of the above specified criteria is met, the Obligor is considered as Defaulted. The Past Due Criterion is applied both at facility and at obligor level for exposures classified as Wholesale, in order to be able to identify exposures for which the Past Due Criterion is satisfied at facility level, but not at obligor level. An exposure is considered as Non-Performing when at least one of the following criteria apply at the time of the credit risk rating assessment: • The exposure is more than 90 days past due (NPL). • It is assessed as Unlikely to Pay (UTP). • Legal actions have been undertaken by the Bank -Legal (NPL). • The exposure is classified as Forborne Non-Performing Exposure (FNPL), as defined in the Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/451 of 17 December 2020. When a Wholesale Banking borrower has an exposure that is more than 90 days past due and the amount of this exposure exceeds 20% of total exposures of the borrower, then all exposures of the borrower are considered as non-performing (Pulling Effect). An exposure is flagged as ‘Unlikely To Pay’ (UTP) when the Group assesses that the borrower is unlikely to fully meet his credit obligations without the liquidation of collateral, regardless the existence of any past due amount or the number of days past due, with the exception of collaterals that are part of the production and trade chain of the borrower (e.g. properties for Real Estate companies, corporate shares for Holding companies). For the identification of these the following are determined, separately for Wholesale Banking and Retail Banking, a) events which when occur lead to the transfer of the exposure to Non-Performing status without requiring an assessment by any Committee (Hard UTP Triggers) and b) triggers which when occur, lead to borrower’s credit assessment by the competent Committee in order to determine whether borrower’s exposures should be classified as Non-Performing or not (Soft UTP Triggers). An exposure is considered as Credit Impaired when the criteria specified by the definition of Non-Performing Exposures are met. An exposure is considered as Default when the criteria specified by the definition of Non-Performing Exposures are met. It is noted that the Group has decided since 2018 to align the perimeter of exposures recognized as “Non Performing loans”, as “Default Exposures” and as “IFRS 9 Credit Impaired exposures’. For credit risk reporting purposes the allowance for expected credit losses of loans measured at amortised cost includes also the fair value adjustment for the contractual balance of loans which were impaired at their acquisition or origination (POCI) since the Group, from credit risk perspective, monitors the respective adjustment as part of the expected credit losses. These loans were recognized either in the context of acquisition of specific loans or companies (i.e. Emporiki Bank and Citibank Greece), or as a result of significant modification of the terms of the previous loan that led to derecognition. Relevant adjustment has been performed to the carrying amount of the loans before allowance for expected credit losses. The collateral value taken into account is the latest market value of the collateral available. In the case of immovable properties, collateral value is considered the lower between the prenotation amount and the market value. Value of guarantees only includes the amount that exceeds the value of collaterals. All collateral values are capped at 100% of the outstanding amount of the loan. EXPECTED CREDIT LOSS ESTIMATION METHODOLOGY The Group, at each reporting date, recognizes a provision for expected credit losses on loans and advances to customers not measured at fair value through profit or loss as well as for letters of guarantee, letters of credit and undrawn loan commitments. The expected credit losses calculation Methodology is common and applicable for both the Wholesale and Retail Banking Portfolios. Portfolio Classification in Stages based on the Credit Risk (Staging) CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 339 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Following an exposure’s initial recognition, exposure is classified into stages based on credit risk. The classification of loans in stages is based on the changes of the credit quality since initial recognition. Upon initial recognition of an exposure, the Group must determine whether this exposure is considered as credit impaired (Credit Impaired at Initial Recognition). The POCI category (Purchased or Originated Credit Impaired, POCI) includes the following: • Exposures that at the time of purchase (Purchased) meet the criteria of non-performing exposures. • Exposures that the old one is derecognized and a new exposure is recognized and for which the following apply when Originated: if the exposure was classified as credit impaired (NPE) prior to derecognition, the new exposure will continue to maintain this classification and it will be classified as POCI. The calculation for the credit risk of POCI exposures is calculated in lifetime. For exposures not classified as POCI, the classification in stages is performed as follows: • Stage 1 includes performing credit exposures that have no significant increase in credit risk since the initial recognition date. In this stage, expected credit losses calculated are based on the probability of default within the next twelve months and the assessment is carried out on a collective basis. • Stage 2 includes credit exposures with significant increase in credit risk since the initial recognition but are not non-performing. In this stage, expected credit losses calculated in lifetime and the assessment is carried out on a collective basis. • Stage 3 includes the non-performing / default exposures. In this stage expected credit losses calculated in lifetime and the assessment is performed on a collective or individual basis. All possible movements between Stages of credit risk are presented below: • An exposure which has been classified in Stage 1 in the previous quarter of reference could be classified either in Stage 1 in the next reporting quarter, if the credit risk has not deteriorated and the exposure is still performing, or in Stage 2, if the exposure is still performing but the credit risk has deteriorated, or in Stage 3 if the exposure is non-performing/default. • An exposure which has been classified in Stage 2 in previous quarter of reference could be classified either in Stage 1 in the next reporting quarter, if the exposure is performing and does not meet any criteria of “Significant increase in credit risk” and in particular, for case of Forborne Performing loans (FPL), if the exit criteria from the 2-years probation period are met or it could also remain in Stage 2, if the credit risk has not substantially changed, or be transferred to Stage 3, if the exposure is non-performing/default. • An exposure which has been classified in Stage 3 in previous quarter could be classified either in Stage 1 in the next reporting quarter, if the exposure is performing and does not meet any of the criteria of “Significant increase in credit risk”, or transferred in Stage 2, if it is no longer considered as non-performing but meets one of the criteria of “Significant increase in credit risk”, or remain in Stage 3, if it is still non-performing/default. All exposures in default (Stage 3), except from those related to distressed restructuring, in order to be reclassified as non-default, a probation period of at least 3 months is needed from the time when the conditions leading to default status are not applied. Exposures with distressed restructuring, regardless of whether the restructuring took place before or after the default, should have a minimum probation period of 12 months from the most recent event of the following: • the time of restructuring • the time when the exposure has been classified as default • the end of the grace period provided by the restructuring terms The Group does not make use of the exemption provided by the standard for low credit risk exposures. For classification purposes, for wholesale banking revolving exposures, initial recognition date is the date of the most recent credit assessment / credit risk rating reflecting the annual thorough credit risk review. Furthermore, the classification of the exposures in IFRS9 stages is also affected by the refinancing risk, which is an area of focus during the credit review and UTP assessment process, either through the obligor rating, the financial difficulty indicator or through the identification of relevant UTP triggers. Significant Increase in Credit Risk For the timely identification of significant increase in credit risk for an Exposure after the initial recognition (SICR) leading to the calculation of lifetime credit losses of the exposure instead of twelve months credit losses, the risk of default at the reference date is compared to the risk of default at the initial recognition date for all Performing Exposures, including those with no days past due (Delinquencies). The assessment to determine whether an exposure shows significant increase in credit risk or not is based on the following: • Quantitative Indicators: They refer to the use of quantitative information and specifically to the comparison between the probability of default (PD) at the reference date and the probability of default at the initial recognition date. The assessment of significant increase in credit risk is based either on a relative or on an absolute increase of PD between the reporting date and the initial recognition date. As a result of the annual update of credit risk parameters the relative increase can range between 75% and 200% depending on the asset class of the loans. The increase in absolute number, when used, can range between 3 and 5 percentage points depending on the asset class of the loans and acts as a backstop to the relative increase (i.e., just one of the two triggers needs to be hit in order to trigger stage 2). Additionally, in the case of wholesale exposures, the Credit Risk Rating is taken into account separately as a criterion for determining the significant increase in credit risk. Finally, the threefold increase in annualized PD as backstop is ensured. Threshold determination derives based on portfolio level analyses. The assessment of the exposures for significant increase in credit risk is applied on account level. It is noted that the critical points - both for the absolute increase and for the relative increase of PD between the reference date and initial recognition - are validated on an annual basis, in order to confirm their correct application and to confirm that the established criteria have sufficient identified the significant increase in credit risk. • Qualitative Indicators: They refer to use of qualitative information which is not necessarily depicted in the probability of default, such as the assessment of an exposure as performing forborne (“FPL” within 2 years’ probation period according to EBA ITS) or as exposure with Financial Difficulty or as exposure with Operating Risk (for Wholesale exposures). Additional qualitative indicators for the Wholesale Banking portfolios and the Retail Banking portfolios are included in Credit Risk Early Warning mechanisms where according to the assessment performed, an exposure may be considered as significant increase in credit risk or not. Especially for Specialized Lending portfolios through rating (slotting category) additional qualitative indicators are identified. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 340 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • Backstop Indicators: In addition to the above, and with a view to addressing cases where there is no evidence of significant credit risk deterioration based on the quantitative and qualitative indicators, exposures over 30 days past due are considered by definition to show significant increase in credit risk. Allowance for expected credit losses estimation Expected credit losses are calculated either on an individual basis or on a collective basis, taking into account the significance of the exposure or common risk characteristics and historical behavioral data. Exposures assessed on individual basis (Individual Assessment): On an individual basis, the Exposures to Companies with the following characteristics are assessed: • Borrowers with at least one Non-Performing Exposure whose Customer overall credit Limit in the Bank exceeds the amount of Euro 2 mil. or • Specialized Lending Borrowers regardless the overall credit limit with at least one Non-Performing Exposure or • Exposures that do not share common risk characteristics or for which no relevant historical data that enables a collective analysis is available. Any remaining wholesale exposures are assessed collectively. On an individual basis, the exposures of Individual Borrowers are assessed when they are classified as Non-Performing Exposures (NPE), and they relate to: • Consumer Loans: Exposures of Consumer Credit Borrowers with total on balance exposures over € 500 thousand. • Mortgage Loans: Accounts of Mortgage Credit Borrowers with on balance exposures over € 2 mil. Any remaining exposure to Individuals is assessed collectively. Exposures assessed on collective basis (Collective Assessment): Collective Assessment applies to credit exposures which are not assessed individually, i.e. exposures classified in Stage 1 and Stage 2 as well as non-performing exposures that do not meet the above criteria for individual assessment, after having been categorized based on similar credit risk characteristics of the group and the portfolio to which the borrower or the credit facility is allocated. For the classification of credit facilities into groups with similar credit risk characteristics ( e.g. Staging according to Credit Risk, Type of Product, Days Past Due, Time in default, Indication of unlikeliness to pay, Modification of contractual terms for borrowers showing financial difficulty (Forbearance Measures), Existence of Collateral/ Greek State Guarantee, Credit Risk Rating etc). The groupings are reviewed on a regular basis to ensure that each group is comprised of homogenous exposures in terms of credit risk. Expected Credit Loss is calculated on account level. Calculation of allowance for expected credit losses Allowance for expected credit losses is reassessed at each financial statement date, reflecting the reassessment of credit risk. Credit risk parameters Calculation of Expected Credit Loss is based on the following credit risk parameters which are incorporated in the internal statistical models based on historical data. • Probability of Default (PD): It is an estimate of the probability of a borrower to default over a specific time horizon. The Probability of Default is determined with the assistance of the Credit Risk Models. The Group uses statistical models through regression in order to analyze the collected data and make estimates of the remaining probability of default over the life of the exposures and how they will evolve over time. Specifically, based on historical time series of observations, specialized models have been developed per portfolio and portfolio type, which evaluate separately the twelve-month probability of default (12-month PD models) as well as the probability of default throughout the lifetime of exposures (Lifetime PD models). The twelve-month default models basically evaluate the behavioural characteristics of the loan (behavioural models), while the Lifetime models evaluate two types of factors: the endogenous such as the maturity of the loan and the exogenous ones such as the macroeconomic environment (unemployment, annual percentage change in GDP, change in property prices, inflation). The final estimate of the probability of default is derived from the combination of the two components (12-month PD & Lifetime PDs). • Exposure at default (EAD): Exposure at Default is an estimate of the amount of the exposure at the time of the default taking into account: (a) expected changes in the exposure after the reporting date, including principal and interest payments; (b) the expected use of credit limits and (c) accrued interest. The approved credit limits that have not been fully disbursed represent a potential credit exposure and are converted into a credit exposure equal to the approved undrawn loan commitments multiplied by a Credit Conversion Factor (CCF). The Credit Conversion factor of credit exposure is calculated based on statistical models. The maximum period for which credit losses are calculated is the remaining contractual maturity of a financial instrument unless the Group has the legal right to recall the financial instrument earlier. Exceptionally, for Credit Cards and loan agreements to individuals, the maximum period is set at three years, while for revolving loans to Small Businesses, the corresponding maturity is set at five years. Regarding Wholesale Banking loan agreements, the period is set to one year, given the thorough credit review performed at least once a year. If the residual maturity of the loan agreements classified in Stage 2 was increased by one year, Expected Credit Losses would increase by € 2 mil. as at 31.12.2024 (31.12.2023: € 4.3 mil.). The Group uses models for exposure at default that reflect the characteristics of each portfolio. Loss given default (LGD): Loss given default is an estimate of the loss that will occur if the default occurs at a given time. It is based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due and those expected to be received, including the liquidation of collaterals, cure rate and cash recoveries based on historical data. For unsecured loans, the Estimated Expected loss at the time of the default, takes into account expected recovery rates which vary throughout the recovery period as well as the cure rate. Expected recoveries from tangible collaterals are based on the following inputs: the most recent (updated within the year) market value of the collateral, the time required for the liquidation/sale of the collateral (ranging between 1 to 4 years depending on the legal action status of the loan), the expected market value at liquidation /sale date based on the evolution of real estate prices within the next 4 years, the expected recoveries through foreclosure process or sale (as derived from historical data obtained for foreclosures and sales of collateral). The recovery rate is adjusted at the end to reflect value of preferential claims. Expected cash flows are discounted using the original effective interest rate. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 341 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT As part of the annual update, credit risk parameters are reviewed and revised if needed to incorporate the impact of any changes in the business environment. Finally, it is noted that the LGD varies based on each macroeconomic scenario since it differentiates the value of collateral, cash recoveries and the cure rate. Estimates of expected cash recoveries are adjusted by incorporating macroeconomic indexes (i.e. unemployment, annual percentage change in GDP, change in real estate prices, inflation) through the development of corresponding statistical models. More specifically, based on historical time series of observations, specialized models (regression) have been developed per portfolio, which evaluate the expected recoveries combined with the impact of macroeconomic indicators. In respect of cure rate estimates, statistical models (regression) per portfolio have been developed based on historical time series of observations which incorporate the effect of the macroeconomic environment through relevant indicators (indicative unemployment, annual percentage change in GDP, change in property prices, inflation). Management overlays: Sale scenarios: In case the Bank 's business plan includes targets and strategies for recovery through sale, then for the loans and advances to customers included in the portfolio that may be sold, the recoverable amount is calculated by weighting (i) the value in case of sale (sale price) and (ii) the amount expected to be recovered according to the internal methods applied by the Bank for the impairment of non- performing loans, i.e. based on the individual assessment for exposures exceeding a specified limit and based on the collective assessment for the rest. The weighting is based on the probability of sale attributed to each non-performing loan portfolio, assessing the stage of preparation of the underlying portfolios, the importance of the conditions preceding the realization of the sale as well as the recovery time. Taking into account developments in sales transactions of portfolios of non-performing loans included in the NPE Business Plan, as described in note 52 "Assets For Sale", the calculation of expected credit risk losses has been adjusted; incorporating a sale scenario with a probability of 100%, for the following perimeters: • Portfolio of non-performing business credit loans (Project "Solar" ) • Portfolio of non-performing Cypriot loans (Project ACAC) • Portfolio of mainly non-performing housing loans with collateral (Project "Gaia I") • Portfolio of non-performing mainly small and medium-sized enterprises (Project "Gaia II") • Portfolio of non-performing leasing leases of Alpha Leasing S.A. (transaction "Leasing") • Other loan portfolios The adjustments made by the Group concern the incorporation of alternative recovery scenarios in relation to the NPL reduction targets included in the Group's strategic plan. Post model adjustments (PMA) Moreover, Management proceeds, when deemed necessary, to additional adjustments. These adjustments are recognized by the Group following a detailed examination of the results of the models, market data and/or the Bank's strategy and other risk factors, particularly in periods of economic uncertainty, which cannot be incorporated into the models. The Group’s governance framework requires such adjustments to be adequately documented and approved by the Groups’ appropriate authorization levels. On a regular basis and at least on each reporting period, the Group examines whether the PMA have a more permanent impact and there is the necessary historical data in order to incorporate it in in the expected credit losses internal models. Within 2024 Management reassessed PMAs and determined that for a specific portfolio of the Group’s retail loans with certain characteristics, a post-model adjustment is required. The PMA was applied to specific retail non-performing exposures amounting to € 462 (31.12.2023: € 687) for which based on the current circumstances the collection of the outstanding balance (through liquidation or other alternative strategy) is extremely difficult. Furthermore, based on the Group’s assessment these specific retail non-performing exposures are more vulnerable to the inflationary pressures and are at a non-performing status for a long period, which makes their collection even more difficult. As result of the above assessment, Management has identified that these specific factors that are interrelated with the characteristics of these retail non-performing exposures and the profile of the underlying borrowers, cannot be captured by the credit risk models and therefore proceeded with an adjustment in the loss rate applied for this retail sub-portfolio. In this context the Group has recognised an accumulated PMA as of 31.12.2024 of € 103 versus € 123 as of 31.12.2023. Incorporation of forward looking information The Group calculates allowance for expected credit losses based on the weighted probability of three alternative scenarios. More specifically, the Group produces forecasts for the possible evolution of macroeconomic variables that affect the level of allowance for expected credit losses of loan portfolios under a baseline and under two alternative macroeconomic scenarios (an upside and a downside one) and also estimates the cumulative probabilities associated with these scenarios. The macroeconomic variables affecting the level of expected credit losses are the Gross Domestic product (hereinafter “GDP”), the unemployment rate, the inflation rate and forward-looking prices of residential and commercial real estates. The main features of these scenarios can be described as follows: Baseline Scenario Amidst a volatile international environment, the Greek economy continued its upward trajectory in the first nine months of 2024, growing by 2.3% on an annual basis, outperforming the respective euro area average. Despite the high level of uncertainty surrounding the economic outlook, the growth momentum of the Greek economy is expected to continue over the scenario horizon amidst favorable conditions: • the investment grade status and the upgrade of Greece's credit rating by Scope Ratings within the investment grade (to BBB), CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 342 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • the achievement of fiscal surpluses which, along with the projected growth path, are expected to further reduce the debt-to-GDP ratio, • the increasing contribution of investment to the growth mix, also as a result of the absorption of the Resilience and Recovery Facility (RRF) funds, • the ongoing recovery in euro area and • the expected strong tourism performance. Economic growth is expected to be supported by private consumption – on the back of rising real disposable income following ongoing employment gains and de-escalating inflation - and investment supported by the RRF implementation. The unemployment rate is expected to continue to decline to single-digit levels over the scenario horizon, in line with the projected economic recovery and the anticipated new investments, which will create new jobs. In 2024, inflation based on the Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) averaged 3% compared to 4.2% in 2023, as a result of the more moderate price increases in food and industrial goods. The baseline scenario foresees a further, gradual de-escalation of headline inflation to 2.7% in 2025 and convergence towards the European Central Bank's medium-term inflation target. The upward trend in residential property prices is expected to continue, albeit at a slower pace. Upside Scenario In the upside scenario, Greek economy is assumed to record stronger growth rates compared to the baseline scenario, supported by rising investment and consumption, a stronger performance in tourism, a faster deceleration of the unemployment rate and high growth rates in residential property prices. Downside scenario In the downside scenario, Greek economy is assumed to register weaker growth rates compared to the baseline scenario, reflecting, inter alia, increased geopolitical uncertainty, weaker-than-expected growth in the European economy and delays in the absorption of RRF funds. Specifically in Greece, the average of the macroeconomic variables which impact both the Probability of Default and the Loss Given Default in the estimation of expected credit losses at 31.12.2024 (period 2025-2028) and the comparative period (period 2024-2027) are the following: 31.12.2024 2025-2028 GREECE Downside Scenario Baseline Scenario Upside Scenario Real GDP growth 0.1% 1.9% 3.6% Unemployment rate 11.4% 8.6% 5.8% Inflation 3.4% 2.4% 1.4% RRE prices change (0.4)% 2.5% 5.3% CRE Price Index change 0.1% 1.9% 3.8% 31.12.2023 2024 – 2027 GREECE Downside Scenario Baseline Scenario Upside Scenario Real GDP growth 0.0% 1.8% 3.7% Unemployment rate 10.6% 8.5% 6.4% Inflation 3.4% 2.4% 1.5% RRE prices change (0.1)% 2.7% 5.7% CRE Price Index change 0.3% 1.9% 3.6% In the countries where the Group mainly operates, the year-on-year average of macroeconomic variables for the period 2025-2027 affecting the expected credit risk loss as at 31.12.2024, is presented in the following tables: 2025 – 2027 CYPRUS Downside Scenario Baseline Scenario Upside Scenario Real GDP growth (% change) 0.4% 3.0% 5.6% Unemployment (% change) 6.5% 4.8% 3.0% Inflation prices (% change) 3.6% 2.0% 0.8% RRE Price Index (% change) 1.5% 3.4% 5.4% CRE Price Index (% change) 0.9% 2.2% 3.4% Respectively, the average of the macroeconomic variables for the period 2024-2026 that impacted the expected credit losses at 31.12.2023 is presented in the following tables: 2024 – 2026 CYPRUS Downside Scenario Baseline Scenario Upside Scenario Real GDP growth (% change) 1.1% 3.0% 4.8% Unemployment (% change) 7.6% 5.7% 3.9% RRE prices (% change) 1.0% 3.2% 5.6% CRE Price Index (% change) (0.5)% 1.3% 2.9% The production of baseline scenario, supported by a consistent economic description, constitutes the most likely scenario according to the current economic conditions and the Group’s basic assessment of the course of the economy. The cumulative probabilities of the macroeconomic scenarios for the Greek economy indicate that the economy performs better or worse than forecasts of the baseline scenario and the alternative scenarios, i.e. the upside and downside scenario. For each one of the alternative scenarios, the allowance for expected credit losses is calculated and weighted against the probability of each scenario in order to calculate the weighted expected credit loss. The cumulative probability assigned to the baseline scenario remained 60%, while cumulative probability assigned to the downside and upside scenario remained 20% for each of the scenario. If the assigned cumulative probability of the downside scenario was weighted at 100%, Expected Credit Losses would increase by € 106. at 31.12.2024 (31.12.2023: € 102). If the assigned cumulative probability of the upside scenario was weighted at 100%, Expected Credit Losses would decrease by € 72 at 31.12.2024 (31.12.2023: € 88). CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 343 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The following table shows in more detail this impact per Stage classification.

When estimating the allowance for expected credit losses over the life of an undrawn loan commitment, the Group assesses the expected part of the loan commitment that will be used throughout its expected life. Governance Credit Risk Committee is responsible for approving the Expected Credit Losses as well as the methodologies developed by the Group for calculating the expected credit loss (ECL Methodology) for loan portfolio. The Board of Directors approves the Group Loan Impairment Policy through the Risk Management Committee. FORBEARANCE The credit tools which are normally used by the Group for managing the liquidity problems that borrowers are facing for repaying their obligations are the restructuring of debt through the renegotiation of the original terms and conditions of the loan agreement they have entered into. The Executive Committee “Act 175/2/29.7.2020 of the Bank of Greece, has determined the supervisory framework for the management of loans in arrears and non-performing loans, over and above the already applicable requirements of European Regulation 2024/1623 (CRR), amending Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 as well as European Directive 2024/1619 (CRD), amending Directive (EU) 2013/36, and delegated the decision authority to the Bank of Greece. Furthermore, in the context of the Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/451 of 17 December 2020 and the executive technical standards of the European Banking Authority, the Group assumes the resulting regulatory obligations for forborne exposures. Forbearance measures are proposed to cooperative and viable borrowers provided that they are assessed as effective and sustainable in the long term, taking into account both the causes of the financial difficulty and the borrower's ability to repay. Forbearance measures may be applied either on the basis of a customer’s request or in accordance with the Code of Conduct under Law 4224/2013, as currently is in force, which is a State initiative under the supervision of the Bank of Greece. Apart from the forbearance measures applied to existing Retail lending exposures, which are initiated by the Group in accordance with the directives of the Executive Committee Acts of the Bank of Greece (No. 175/2/29.7.2020) and Arrears Resolution Process (ARP) of the Code of Conduct under Law 4224/2013 as currently is in force, there are restructuring solutions according to the Legislative Framework. The existence of more favorable terms for renegotiating and modifying the terms and conditions of the bilateral arrangement between the Group and the debtor (concession), who is facing or is about to face difficulties in meeting his financial commitments (“financial difficulty”), are defined with respect to: • Respective terms existing and applied to customers with no financial difficulty; and • Corresponding terms existing in market for debtors with similar credit risk profile. Financial Difficulty is defined as the situation where the debtor is unable to comply or is about to face difficulties in servicing his credit obligations as per the current loan repayment schedule due to the worsening of his financial status. WRITE-OFFS AND WRITE-DOWNS OF BAD DEBTS Bad Debt Write-off is defined as the reduction of the gross carrying amount of a financial asset, when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. The write-off refers to the accounting write-off of a debt or a portion of it, i.e. the removal of the financial asset or part of it from the balance sheet, which does not necessarily entail the waiver of the legal right to recover the debt. In the event that the Group decides to waive its legal right to recover the debt, this is called Debt Forgiveness and this waiver may include either on or off-balance sheet items as well. Bad Debt Write-down is defined as the definitive reduction of a debt or portion of it, as a result of a legally binding decision or agreement (court judgment, contractual agreement etc.), which is not further claimable. It is noted that this category encompasses Definitive Write- Downs which are unconditional and Contingent Write-Downs subject to the achievement by the Customer of a specific performance (usually, upon the successful implementation of a specific repayment program). In the case of Definitive Write-downs, both the accounting and the legal reduction (Debt Forgiveness) take place immediately and simultaneously, whereas in the case of Contingent Write-downs, the accounting reduction takes place when the relevant decision is taken or when the agreement is concluded, while the legal reduction (Debt Forgiveness) takes place either simultaneously with the relevant decision or at a later (future) time, depending on the type of the condition. DUE FROM FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS Exposure to credit institutions relates to loans. interbank transactions (which include positions in derivatives), reverse repos transactions and International trade activities. Following the basic rules of designation, monitoring and revision of corporate lending, boundaries are established by the relevant Credit Committees for the monitoring of credit risk for the overall exposure per credit institution counterparty, excluding positions related to bonds issued by them. The approved credit limits are monitored on a daily basis. The validity period of the limits is specified in the approval of the limits in accordance with the counterparty credit institutions rating from international credit rating agencies. In addition to the regular revisions of counterparty credit institutions limits, interim revisions may be carried out either due to circumstances associated with the trading activity of the Group or due to markets conditions or problems associated with counterparty credit institutions. Criteria for an extraordinary review are regularly monitored per counterparty in order to review the relevant limits when such criteria exist. At each reporting date. a loss allowance for expected credit losses on due from financial institutions is recognized. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 344 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Investments in debt securities relate to securities that are classified into investment security portfolio. If there is a loan relationship with the counterparty issuer at the time of classification of the security position as investment, the Corporate Credit Policy procedures apply. These positions are subject to Group investment limits and issuer’s limits and are monitored on a daily basis. At each reporting date, a loss allowance for expected credit losses on bonds, which are not measured at fair value through profit or loss, is recognized. The loss allowance is based on expected credit losses related to the probability of default within the next twelve months, unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk from the date of initial recognition in which case expected credit. Also, if the receivable or security falls within the definition of impaired financial instruments upon initial recognition (Purchased or Originated Credit - Impaired - POCI), an impairment provision equal to the expected credit losses for its entire life is recognized. Credit risk of investment in debt securities is assessed based on credit ratings of rating agencies or internal credit rating in case of Greek corporate issuers for which loan exposure exists. The Group defines as low credit risk all investment grade securities, for which it calculates a credit allowance equal to a 12-month expected credit loss (Stage 1). For debt securities, which do not meet the criteria of investment grade, the assessment of the significant increase in credit risk for which calculation of lifetime expected credit losses is required (Stage 2), is based on the two following conditions (whichever occurs first): - Downgrade by at least two notches of the counterparty credit rating between the reporting date and the initial recognition date. - The 12-month PD at reporting date is above 5% in absolute terms and has increased more than 50% compared to the respective PD existing at initial recognition date. In addition, the Group is monitoring, the change in credit spreads since the initial recognition date. A change in the credit spread of the issue of more than 500bps since the initial recognition date is a trigger for the review of the debt instrument staging. Depending on the outcome of the above review the debt instrument will remain at Stage 1 or be allocated at Stage 2, regardless of whether the primary staging criteria for allocation to Stage 2 have been triggered or not.

These loans were recognized either in the context of acquisition of specific loans or companies (i.e. Emporiki Bank and Citibank’s retail operations in Greece), or as a result of significant modification of the terms of the previous loan that led to derecognition. Relevant adjustment has also been performed at the carrying amount of loans before allowance for expected credit losses. It is noted that the credit risk tables do not include the outstanding balances and allowance for expected credit losses of loans that have been classified as assets held for sale.

In December 2023, the Group updated its corporate governance framework to reflect the Group’s new organizational structure. Upon transfer of the legal title of properties to the Group, in the context of the management of non-performing exposures (NPEs), the respective company is in charge of monitoring the repossession procedures (asset on - boarding), determining the optimal property management strategy and assigning to the appropriate channels, within or outside the Group, the management of the properties. Depending on the defined strategy, the property is classified for accounting purposes, in the appropriate category. The classification process is periodically reviewed so that the classification of each property is updated based on its current status. Finally, there is continuous supervision and co-ordination of collaborating asset management channels on the implementation of the defined strategies as well as of the asset commercialization in accordance with the Group’s policy and monitoring of their performance through appropriate Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).

Losses may also occur either from the trading portfolio or from the Assets-Liabilities management. More specifically: • Interest rate risk is the risk that results from adverse changes or adverse volatility of interest rates. • Foreign exchange risk is the risk arising from adverse changes or adverse volatility of foreign exchange rates. • Equity risk is the risk arising from adverse changes in the value or volatility of equities or equity indices. The Group does not hold any material portfolio in such instruments. • Commodity risk is the risk arising from adverse changes in the value or volatility of commodities. The Group does not hold any material portfolio in such instruments. i. Trading portfolio The Group’s Market Risk Management Policy elaborates on how market risk is managed within the Bank, i.e. the identification, measurement, monitoring and control of market risk inherent in Treasury assets and liabilities transacted by the Bank and the country local Treasury Management Units, as well as the determination that adequate capital is held against this type of risk. The ultimate objective of the Policy is to provide the framework and principles for the effective management of market risk, in order to: • maintain market risk within the limits, in line with the Bank’s risk appetite; • reduce the risk of fraud or regulatory non-compliance by prescribing sound methodologies; • ensure adequate controls to prevent significant losses; • facilitate efficient decision-making by quantifying where possible the probabilities of failing to achieve earnings or other targets. All competent Group units and country local Units apply the Policy by developing and applying corresponding processes. Market risk of trading portfolio is measured by Value at Risk - VAR, that is the maximum amount of loss with a given probability (confidence level). The method applied for calculating Value at Risk is historical simulation with full revaluation with 99% confidence level. The historical observation period is one year at minimum. Risk factor returns are calculated according to the absolute or relative approach. The Group calculates VAR on a daily basis and the data sets are updated daily. A holding period of one and ten days is applied for regulatory purposes. Additional holding periods may be applied for internal purposes, according to the time required for the liquidation of the portfolio. According to regulatory expectations a prospective and retrospective test is performed on a daily basis for the regulatory trading book of the Bank using hypothetical and actual results. The Group monitors the numbers of days that the results exceed the respective risk limit. 1 day value at risk, 99% confidence interval (2 years historical data) (Amounts in Million Euro) 2024 Foreign currency risk Interest rate risk Price risk Comodity risk Covariance Total 31 December 0.4233 0.4684 0.0445 0.0001 (0.4053) 0.5310 Average daily value (annual) 0.7954 0.9059 0.0065 0.0006 (0.5904) 1.1180 Maximum daily value (annual) 0.6874 1.5097 0.0003 (0.4131) 1.7843 Minimum daily value (annual) 0.4233 0.4684 0.0445 0.0001 (0.4053) 0.5310 * Relates to the total Value at Risk within the year.

The Value at Risk methodology is based on certain theoretical assumptions, which under extreme market conditions might not capture the maximum loss the Bank may suffer. The limitations of the methodology may be summarized as follows: • VAR refers to the potential loss at a 99% confidence level, without considering any losses beyond that level • Risk factor returns are assumed to follow the empirical distribution that was experienced during the historical observation period. On a daily basis, a perspective and retrospective test of Value at Risk model is carried out, taking into account hypothetical and actual changes in the trading book’s profit and loss. According to best practices, the model is validated by an independent unit at the Bank on an annual basis. The Value at Risk methodology is complemented with scenario analysis and stress testing, in order to estimate the potential size of losses that could arise from the trading portfolio for hypothetical as well as historical extreme movements of market parameters (stress-testing). Within the scope of market risk control, open position, maximum loss (stop loss) and value at risk limits have been set across trading positions. In particular, limits have been set for the following risks: • Foreign currency risk regarding spot and forward positions and FX options • Interest rate risk regarding positions in bonds, Interest Rate Swaps, Interest Futures, Interest Options • Price risk regarding positions in shares, index Futures and options, Commodity Futures and Swaps • Credit risk regarding interbank transactions and bonds Positions held in these products are monitored on a daily basis and are examined for the corresponding limit percentage cover and for any limit excess. ii. Financial Risks of Banking portfolio The Market risk may arise, apart from the trading portfolio, from the structure of assets and liabilities of loan and deposits portfolio of the Group. This risk is foreign exchange risk and interest rate risk. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 370 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT a. Foreign exchange risk The Group takes on the risk arising from the fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The management of foreign currency position is centralized. The policy of the Group is the positions to be closed immediately using spot transactions or currency derivatives.

Interest rate risk Interest rate risk in the banking book relates to the volatility on Equity and interest income of the Bank due to the mismatch between the non- trading Assets-Liabilities and the portfolio measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. The interest rate risk management framework is determined in accordance with the Asset Liability Risk Management Policy. Based on this framework, the risk analysis of the Banking Portfolio is analyzed through the Interest Rate Gap Analysis. Specifically, assets and liabilities are classified in Gaps depending on their reprising date for floating-rate items, or maturity date for fixed rate items. For those assets and liabilities with no maturity date, the distribution of flows is based on models that analyze their behavior. In addition, extreme interest rate change scenarios are carried out on a monthly basis, while their impact on the change in interest rate income (Net Interest Income) and funds through EVE (Economic Value of Equity) is calculated. The models used for these analyses have been validated by the relevant independent Business Area of the Bank. The interest rate risk management is carried out by ALCO following recommendations from the Asset-Liability Management Business Area. In addition, the Bank has set appropriate thresholds to monitor interest rate risk exposure. The results of the relevant interest rate change scenarios for interest rate risk, together with the respective use of the thresholds, are presented to the Asset-Liability Management Committee (ALCO) and the Risk Management Committee of the Governing Council. In 2024, the Group continued to implement its hedging strategy to manage interest rate risk exposure and remains within the limits for the Change in Economic Value of Equity to Tier 1 funds ratio and the Change in Net Interest Income to Tier 1 funds ratio, in all extreme interest rate scenarios. Interest rate risk is managed holistically, taking into account the balance sheet dynamics as well as the market expectations on interest rates evolution, either through the use of natural hedges (i.e. matching assets and liabilities) or through the complementary use of financial derivatives, in order to dynamically maintain a balanced interest rate risk profile. In addition, the Group monitors and manages the "Credit Spread Risk in the Banking Book" (CSRBB), which refers to the risk arising from changes in the market price, credit risk, liquidity and possibly other characteristics of financial instruments with credit risk, not covered by any CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 372 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT other existing regulatory framework, such as Interest Rate Risk in the Banking Book (IRRBB) or expected credit/default risk (jump-to-default risk). The CSRBB captures the risk of an instrument's margin changing, assuming the same level of creditworthiness. In order to monitor this risk in the Group, specific risk indicators have been defined that record the change in economic value (Economic Value of Equity) and the impact on market value (Market value impact). The following table presents the Interest Rate Repricing Analysis of both Assets and Liabilities, financial and non-financial. 31.12.2024 Less than 1 3 to 6 6 to 12 Non-interest 1 to 3 months 1 to 5 years > 5 years Total month months months bearing ASSETS Cash and balances with Central Banks 2,561 437 2,998 Due from financial institutions 1,154 608 327 207 2,296 Trading securities 53 53 Derivative financial assets 628 628 Loans and advances to customers 12,392 11,277 5,797 877 4,703 3,767 237 39,050 Investment securities: - Measured at amortized cost 589 835 1,036 850 4,998 8,112 16,420 - Measured at fair value through other 115 195 318 70 149 162 1,009 comprehensive income - Measured at fair value through profit or loss 145 11 11 167 Other Non-Affected items 9,454 9,454 Total Assets 17,637 12,926 7,478 1,797 9,850 12,259 10,128 72,075 LIABILITIES Due to banks 3,141 2,384 781 227 6,533 Derivative financial assets 793 793 Due to customers 16,190 5,292 4,388 4,260 15,768 5,134 51,032 Debt securities in issue and other borrowed 88 131 2,977 12 3,208 funds Other Non-Affected items 2,320 2,320 Total Liabilities 20,124 7,764 5,169 4,618 18,745 5,146 2,320 63,886 EQUITY Non Affected items 8,189 8,189 Total Equity - - - - - - 8,189 8,189 Total Liabilities and Equity 20,124 7,764 5,169 4,618 18,745 5,146 10,509 72,075 OPEN EXPOSURE (2,487) 5,162 2,309 (2,821) (8,895) 7,113 (381) - CUMULATIVE EXPOSURE (2,487) 2,675 4,984 2,163 (6,732) 381 - - CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 373 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT 31.12.2023 Less than 1 3 to 6 6 to 12 Non-interest 1 to 3 months 1 to 5 years > 5 years Total month months months bearing ASSETS Cash and balances with Central Banks 3,730 489 4,219 Due from financial institutions 1,179 70 96 227 1,572 Trading securities 26 4 1 2 33 Derivative financial assets 727 727 Loans and advances to customers 11,090 13,174 3,722 951 4,184 3,040 36,161 Investment securities: - Measured at amortized cost 493 827 521 858 4,871 6,920 14,490 - Measured at fair value through other 175 324 418 160 198 94 1,369 comprehensive income - Measured at fair value through profit or loss 146 10 3 159 Other Non-Affected items 13,691 13,691 Total Assets 17,566 14,409 4,662 2,065 9,253 10,286 14,180 72,421 LIABILITIES Due to banks 6,378 304 148 91 6,921 Derivative financial assets 934 934 Due to customers 14,691 3,747 3,354 4,830 16,657 5,170 48,449 Debt securities in issue and other borrowed funds 400 2,452 68 2,920 Other Non-Affected items 5,874 5,874 Total Liabilities 22,003 4,051 3,502 5,321 19,109 5,238 5,874 65,098 EQUITY Non Affected items 7,323 7,323 Total Equity - - - - - - 7,323 7,323 Total Liabilities and Equity 22,003 4,051 3,502 5,321 19,109 5,238 13,197 72,421 OPEN EXPOSURE (4,437) 10,358 1,160 (3,256) (9,856) 5,048 983 - CUMULATIVE EXPOSURE (4,437) 5,921 7,081 3,825 (6,031) (983) - - From the Interest Rate Gap Analysis and from the implementation of alternative scenarios regarding the changes in the market interest rates or the changes in the base interest rates of the Bank and Group companies, the change in the net interest income and in equity in the case of instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income as well as the related hedging instruments is directly calculated.

Liquidity Risk comprises both funding liquidity risk and the risk arising from the Group’s failure to recognize or address changes in market conditions that affect the ability to liquidate assets quickly and with minimal loss in value (market liquidity risk). According to the Group’s Liquidity Risk Policy, the Board Risk Management Committee assigns the overall responsibility for overseeing the asset and liability management to the Asset - Liability Committee (ALCo). The ALCo is responsible to monitor the quantitative and qualitative aspects of liquidity risk and to ensure that appropriate policies and procedures are in place to control and limit liquidity risk. In addition, ALCo is responsible for approving the business proposals, risk measurement techniques, and liquidity limits that are proposed by the Market Risk Control, the Treasury, and the Asset Liability Management Business Areas. The Group’s senior management is informed on current liquidity risk exposures on a daily basis, ensuring that the Bank’s liquidity risk profile remains within approved limits. For the purpose of proper management of liquidity risk and in line with supervisory requirements, the amount, quality and concentration of counterbalancing capacity, the cash flows arising from assets and liabilities (inflows, outflows - maturity ladder) over time, the concentration and cost of funding, and the rollover of funding are reported on a monthly level to the senior management. Additionally, the Group monitors the liquidity exposure that arises from collateralised derivatives and repo interbank transactions by utilizing appropriate risk sensitivities, such as the change in mark-to-market for 1 basis point change in interest rates. Client transactions are primarily non-collateralized, and therefore, no liquidity requirements may arise from them. Liquidity risk management aims to ensure that the respective risk of the Group is measured properly and remains within acceptable levels, even under adverse conditions, and that the Group maintains access to surple sources of funding to cover customer needs, maturing liabilities and other capital needs. The Group calculates the ratios "Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR)" and "Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSRF)" on a monthly and quarterly basis respectively as provided by the European Regulation 575/2013 (CRR). As of 31.12.2024 the two ratios LCR and NSFR exceeded the minimum acceptable supervisory limit of 100%, standing at 199.8% and 125.3% respectively at Group level. Short-term stress tests are carried out at least on a monthly basis, for liquidity purposes, in order to assess potential outflows (contractual or contingent) and determine the level of immediate liquidity available to cover the Group’s needs. These tests are carried out according to the approved Short-term Liquidity Stress Test Methodology and evaluate the liquidity risk in idiosyncratic extraordinary events, in systemic events, as well as in events that combine idiosyncratic and systemic elements. It is noted that stress tests are also used to determine the liquidity buffer for recovery purposes. For those assets and liabilities with no maturity date, the distribution of flows is based on models that analyze their CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 374 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT behavior. These models have been validated by the Risk Models and Data Validation Business Area of the Group. In accordance with the policy and within the framework of the Internal Liquidity Adequacy Procedure (ILAAP), the Group also applies reverse stress tests to assess their impact on liquidity. The Group’s securities’ portfolio, that is a primary source of liquidity in time of stress, consists of approximately 85% of high-quality liquid assets (HQLAs) and has a total size significantly greater than the outflows derived from the regular liquidity short-term stress tests exercises. These HQLAs can be pledged to raise financing through the Eurosystem or the interbank money market without the need of liquidation. The Group’s total funding can be divided into two main categories: Α. Customer Deposits 1. Customer deposits on demand for cash flow needs Deposits that are intended to meet short-term needs of customers are the savings accounts and the sight deposits. Although these deposits may be withdrawn on demand, the number of accounts and type of depositors ensure that unexpected significant fluctuations are limited. Therefore, these deposits constitute a significant factor of stability of the deposit base. 2. Customer term deposits and bonds for investment purposes Customer term deposits have a pre-determined tenor primarily between three and twelve months. The customer has the right to terminate the deposit prior to its maturity by paying a penalty that cannot exceed the amount of accrued interest. Β. Wholesale Funding 1. Medium-term borrowing from international capital markets The Group is a frequent issuer in the international capital markets, primarily through its European Medium Term Note (EMTN) programme. This allows it to diversify its funding sources and extend its funding horizon by obtaining longer-term funding. In February 2024, it successfully placed a Euro 400 million, senior preferred bond with a coupon of 5.00%. The bond has a 6.25-year tenor and is callable at year 5.25. Additionally, in June 2024, it placed a Euro 500 million Subordinated Tier II bond with a coupon of 6%, featuring a 10.25-year tenor and callable at year 5.25. In September 2024, it placed a Euro 300 million Additional Tier I bond with a coupon of 7.5%. The bond has perpetual maturity and is callable at year 6. Finally, in November 2024, it exercised the early redemption option on its Euro 400 million Senior Preferred bond, which carried a coupon of 7% and was set to mature in November 2025. In June 2024, it was upgraded to Baa3 by Moody’s with a positive outlook. In September 2024, it was upgraded to BB+ by S&P Global Ratings and to BB with a positive outlook by Fitch. 2. Funding from Central Banks The Group utilises the financing operations of the European Central Bank, such as the three-month Long-term Refinancing Operations (LTRO) and the weekly Main Refinancing Operations (MRO) to obtain short-term funding. For this purpose, the Bank pledges ECB-eligible assets such as bonds. Both operations are conducted through fixed-rate tender procedures with full allotment. The Eurosystem, therefore, satisfies all bids received from banks against eligible collateral. In 2024, the European Central Bank reduced its deposit facility rate by 100 basis points, from 4% to 3%. Similarly, the MRO rate was reduced by 135 basis points, from 4.50% to 3.15%, narrowing the spread between the deposit facility and MRO rate from 50 basis points to 15 basis points. As of year-end 2024, the Group’s financing from the ECB financing operations stood at EUR 2.6 billion, reduced from Euro 5 billion on 31.12.2023. The table below presents the Liquidity Gap Analysis. According to it, the cash flows arising from balance sheet items are calculated and classified into time periods in accordance with the contractual maturity date or an estimated date based on a statistical analysis (convention). An exception to the above, are the securities portfolios, which can contribute directly to raise liquidity, and they are allocated in the first period under the condition they have not been used to raise liquidity either by the Central Bank or through interbank repos.

The fair value of loans measured at amortized cost is estimated using a model for discounting the contractual future cash flows until maturity. The components of the discount rate are the interbank market yield curve, the liquidity premium, the operational cost, the capital requirement and the expected loss rate. For the loans that for credit risk purposes are classified as impaired and are individually assessed for impairment, the model uses the expected future cash flows excluding expected credit losses. For the fair valuation of the impaired loans which are collectively assessed for impairment, estimates are made for principal repayment after taking into account the allowance for expected credit losses. The discount rate of impaired loans is constituted of the interbank market yield curve, the liquidity premium, the operational cost and the capital requirement. The fair value of debt securities classified as Loans and advances to customers and measured at amortized cost, is being calculated through the use of a model for discounting the contractual future cash flows until their maturity taking into account their credit risk. The fair value of deposits is estimated based on the interbank market yield curve the operational cost and the liquidity premium until their maturity. Level 1 includes securities and debt securities in issue that are traded in active market. Level 2 includes securities and debt securities in issue, the fair value of which, is determined based on non-binding market prices provided by dealers-brokers or through the use of discounted cash flow methodologies such (income approach) using interest rates and credit spreads which are observable in the market. Level 3 includes securities for which there are no observable data in an active market. The fair value of the remaining financial assets and liabilities which are measured at amortized cost does not differ materially from their respective carrying amount.

Level 1 includes securities which are traded in an active market and exchange-traded derivatives. Level 2 includes securities whose fair value is calculated based on non-binding market prices provided by dealers-brokers or securities whose fair value is estimated based the income approach methodology with the use of interest rates and credit spreads which are observable in the market. Level 3 includes securities the fair value of which is estimated using significant unobservable inputs The valuation methodology of securities is subject to approval of Asset Liability Committee. It is noted that specifically for securities whose fair value is calculated based on market prices, bid prices are used and daily checks are performed with regards to their change in fair value. The fair value of loans measured at fair value through profit or loss, is estimated based on the valuation methodology as described above in the disclosure of fair value for loans measured at amortized cost. Given that the data used for the calculation of fair value are non observable, loans are classified at Level 3. Shares the fair value of which is computational, are classified to Level 2 or Level 3, depending on the extent of the contribution of unobservable data in the calculation of the fair value. The fair value of non-listed shares, as well as shares not traded in an active market is determined either based on the Group’s share on the issuer’s equity or by the multiples valuation method or the estimations made by the Group regarding the future profitability of the issuer taking into account the expected growth rate of its operations, as well as the weighted average rate of capital return which is used as discount rate. Income methodologies are used for the valuation of over the counter derivatives: discounted cash flow models, option calculation models, or other widely accepted economic valuation models. The valuation methodology of the over the counter derivatives is subject to approval by the Assets Liabilities Committee. Mid prices are considered as both long and short positions may be open. Valuations are checked on a daily basis with the respective prices of counterparty banks or central clearing houses in the context of the daily process of provision of collaterals and settlement of derivatives. If the non- observable inputs used for the determination of fair value are significant, then the above financial assets are classified as Level 3 or otherwise as Level 2. In addition, the Group calculates the credit valuation adjustment (CVA) in order to take into account the counterparty credit risk for the OTC derivatives. In particular, taking into consideration its own credit risk, the Group calculates the bilateral credit valuation adjustment (Bilateral CVA/BCVA) for the OTC derivatives held on a counterparty level according to netting and collateral agreements in force. BCVA is calculated across all counterparties with a material effect on the respective derivative fair values taking into consideration the default probability of both the counterparty and Group, the impact of the first time of default, the expected OTC derivative exposure, the loss given default of the counterparty and of Group and the specific characteristics of netting and collateral agreements in force. Collaterals and derivatives exposure per counterparty simulate throughout the life of respective financial assets. Calculations performed depend largely on observable market data. Market quoted counterparty and Bank’s CDS spreads are used in order to derive the respective probability of default, a market standard recovery rate is assumed for developed market counterparties, correlations between market data are taken into account and subsequently a series of simulations is performed to model the portfolio exposure over the life of the related instruments. In the absence of observable market data, the counterparty probability of default and loss given default are determined using the Group’s internal models for credit rating and collateral valuation. BCVA model is validated from an independent division of the Group according to best practices. The tables below present a breakdown of BCVA counterparty sector and credit quality, (as defined for the presentation purposes of the table “Loans by credit quality and IFRS 9 Stage”): 31.12.2024 31.12.2023 Category of counterparty Corporates 2 2 Governments (1) 1 31.12.2024 31.12.2023 Hierarchy of counterparty by credit quality Strong 1 2 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 380 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The Group reassess the fair value hierarchy on an instrument-by-instrument basis at each reporting period and proceeds with the transfer of financial instruments, when required, based on the data at the end of each reporting period. Within the current reporting period bonds of a total amount of € 1 have been transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 due to the bid-ask spread which is inside the limit range set in order for a market to be classified as active. Within the previous reporting period bonds of a total amount of € 26 have been transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 due to the bid-ask spread which is inside the limit range set in order for a market to be classified as active.

Based on this scenario (which is in line with the valuation of 20% of the Bank’s investment in the company), the valuation for the years 2024-2026 of the earn-out consideration is zero. In the context of the sale of Alpha Payment Services S.M.S.A. to Nexi S.p.A., the Bank reserves the right to repurchase in the fourth year after the completion of the transaction part of the shares that will correspond to a participation between 24% and 39% in the company for a fixed strike price. According to the estimated figures of the company, the value of this option as of 31.12.2024 is zero. The contingent consideration related to the sale of NPE portfolios is based on the estimated net recoveries of the underlying portfolio’s under the base scenario of the Business Plan as agreed between the parties. The expected earn-out consideration, based on the above base case assumptions, have been further discounted to their present value based on their projected payment period. For shares measured at fair value through profit or loss for the current period, the sensitivity analysis does not show a material change.There are no interactions between unobservable data that significantly affect fair value. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 383 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT 47.5 Transfers of financial assets The Group in its ordinary course of business, transfers financial assets. In cases that, despite the fact that the contractual right to receive cash flows has been transferred, the risks and rewards remain with the Group, these assets continue to be recognized on the balance sheet. As of 31.12.2024 the financial assets that have not been derecognized, despite the contractual transfer of their cash flows, derive from the following categories: a) Securitization of financial assets As at 31.12.2024, the Group holds retail loans and credit cards as well as non-performing loans that have been transferred, by means of securitization transactions, to fully consolidated special purpose entities which have issued notes. The securitized financial assets continue to be recognized in loans and advances to customers as the Group retains the risks and rewards associated with them. This is justified by several factors, which include the full consolidation of the special purpose entity, the retention of the notes issued and the right to receive the deferred consideration from the transfer. As a result of the fact that the Group holds the notes, there is substantially no liability associated with the transfer. The carrying amount of these securitized loans as of 31.12.2024 amount to € 3,407 while the comparative period (31.12.2023 € 4,596) also includes the balances of securitized corporate loans and receivables from financial leases whose securitization transactions were revoked during the year. b) Sale and repurchase agreements of debt securities The Group as at 31.12.2024, has transferred certain Greek Government Bonds and Treasury Bills and bonds of other issuers and agreements to repurchase. These securities are recognized in the Group’s investment portfolio and the respective amounts are presented in the following table. 31.12.2024 Securities measured at fair value through Securities measured at fair value through other comprehensive income that have other comprehensive income been transfer to Assets Held for Sale Other Greek Government Bonds Government Other Issuers’ Bonds and Treasury Bills Bonds Carrying amount of transferred securities 6 24 13 Carrying amount of related liability (6) (22) (13) Fair value of transferred securities 6 24 13 Fair value of related liability (6) (22) (13) Net position - 1 - 31.12.2024 Securities Measured at Amortised Cost Greek Government Bonds Other Issuers’ Senior Other Government Bonds and and Treasury Bills Bonds Securitization Notes Treasury Bills Carrying amount of transferred securities 33 577 302 94 Carrying amount of related liability (33) (534) (133) (88) Fair value of transferred securities 33 577 267 91 Fair value of related liability (33) (534) (133) (88) Net position - 43 133 2 The Group as at 31.12.2023, has transferred certain Greek Government Bonds and Treasury Bills and bonds of other issuers and agreements to repurchase.

Financial instruments that meet offsetting criteria relate to OTC derivative financial instruments that are cleared by a central clearing counterparty (CCP) and for which the Group examined the terms of the respective International Exchange and Derivatives Association (ISDA) agreements with the Clearing Members and concluded that the criteria for offsetting in the balance sheet its valuations with the financial guarantee accounts relating to the coverage of the margin of valuation differences are met. The Group can offset its assets and liabilities relating to a counterparty in case of a credit default for Financial instruments such as derivative transactions under International Exchange and Derivatives Association (ISDA) agreements with financial institutions, as well as repurchase agreements under global master repurchase agreement (GMRA). The following tables present financial assets and liabilities that meet offsetting criteria in the Balance Sheet, as well as financial assets and liabilities subject to contracts for which the criteria mentioned above for offsetting in the Balance Sheet are not met.

Capital Adequacy The policy of the Group is to maintain strong capital ratios and capital buffers over requirements in order to secure that the business plan will be achieved and to ensure trust of depositors, shareholders, markets, and business partners. Share capital increases are conducted following resolutions of the General Meeting of Shareholders or the Board of Directors, in accordance with articles of incorporation or the relevant laws. The Capital Adequacy ratio compares the Group’s regulatory capital with the risks that it undertakes (Risk Weighted Assets - RWAs). Regulatory capital includes Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital (share capital, reserves, minority interests), Additional Tier1 capital (hybrid securities) and Tier 2 capital (subordinated debt). RWAs include the credit risk of the investment portfolio [including also counterparty credit risk and credit valuation adjustment (CVA) risk], the market risk of the trading book and the operational risk. Alpha Bank S.A., as a systemic bank, and therefore its Parent company Alpha Services and Holdings S.A., is supervised by the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM) of the European Central Bank (ECB), to which reports are submitted every quarter. The supervision is conducted in accordance with the European Regulation 575/2013 (CRR) as amended, inter alia, by Regulation (EU) 876/2019 (CRR 2) and the relevant European Directive 2013/36 (CRD IV), as incorporated into the Greek Law through the Law 4261/2014 as amended, inter alia, by Directive (EU)2019/878 (CRD V) and incorporated by Law 4799/2021. The adoption of the Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR III), applicable from 01.01.2025, introduces a series of significant changes to the regulatory framework established under CRR 2, particularly in the context of standardized approaches to credit risk, market risk, operational risk and CVA risk. These modifications aim to enhance the resilience of financial institutions while ensuring greater consistency and comparability across jurisdictions. The transition from CRR II to CRR III reflects the European Union’s commitment to implementing the final Basel III reforms (Basel IV). CRR III aims to: ➢ Enhance the risk sensitivity of prudential frameworks. ➢ Improve the comparability and transparency of financial institutions’ risk profiles. ➢ Promote a more resilient banking system capable of withstanding economic shocks. For the calculation of capital adequacy ratio, the current regulatory framework is followed. In addition: • Besides the 8% capital adequacy limit, there are applicable limits of 4.5% for CET 1 ratio and 6% for Tier 1 ratio, respectively. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 386 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • The maintenance of capital buffers additional to the CET1 capital are required. In particular the Combined Buffer Requirement (CBR) consisting of: o The Capital conservation buffer (CCB) stands at 2.5%. o the following capital buffers set by the Bank of Greece through its Executive Committee Acts: - countercyclical capital buffer (CCyB), equal to “zero percent” (0%) for 2024. - other Systemically Important Institutions (O-SII) buffer, which will gradually rise to “one percent” (1%) from 1.1.2019 to 1.1.2023. For 2024, the O-SII buffer stands at 1.00%. It is noted that, under Executive Committee Act 235/1/07.10.2024 the Bank of Greece has decided to set the countercyclical capital buffer rate for Greece at 0.25%, applicable from 1 October 2025. The target rate for the positive neutral rate of the countercyclical capital buffer in Greece at 0.5%. These limits should be met on a consolidated basis. The following table presents the capital adequacy ratios of the Group: 31.12.2024 31.12.2023 Common Equity Tier I Ratio 16.3% 14.4% Tier I Ratio 18.6% 15.7% Total Capital Adequacy Ratio 21.9% 18.8% The above capital ratios include FY 2024 profits post a provision for dividend payout of €281 either as cash dividend and/or in the form of share buybacks, in accordance with the dividend policy. Excluding the provision for dividend at FY 2024, capital ratios increase by c. 97 bps and the Total Capital ratio would stand at 22.9%. Group's CET1 Ratio includes specific prudential adjustments in accordance with Article 3 of CRR and the expectations of regulatory authorities, including those related to exposures guaranteed by the Greek state. Specifically, for the exposures guaranteed by the Greek state, the Bank made a prudential adjustment of € 73 million as of December 31, 2024, in alignment with the guidelines issued by the ECB to banks at the beginning of 2024. This adjustment is temporary and depends, among other factors, on the progress of payments from the Greek state (based on the new Law 5104/24). The book value of these exposures, recognized in the "Loans and receivables from customers" account, amounted to € 100 million as of December 31, 2024, and, in accordance with ECB guidelines, were classified as non-performing exposures (NPE) and accordingly as Stage 3 loans. Taking into consideration the 2023 Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP) decision, ECB notified Alpha Services and Holdings S.A., that for Q4 2024 it is required to meet the minimum limit for consolidated Overall Capital Requirements (OCR), of at least 14.69% (OCR includes for Q4 2024 the CCB Capital Buffer of 2.5% the O-SII buffer of 1% and the CCyB of 0.19% which mainly derives from the contribution of subsidiaries). The OCR consists of the minimum limit of the total Capital adequacy Ratio (8%), in accordance with art. 92(1) of the CRR, the additional regulatory requirements of Pillar2 (P2R) in accordance with article 16(2) (a) of the Council Regulation EU 1024/2013 (3%), as well as the combined buffers’ requirements (e.g. CCB, OSII, CCyB), in accordance with Article 128 (6) of Directive 2013/36/EU. The minimum rate should be kept on an on-going basis, considering the CRR/CRD Transitional Provisions. On December 2024 Alpha Services and Holdings S.A. received the SREP decision 2024 regarding the Capital Requirements for the year 2025. The additional supervisory requirements for Pillar II (P2R) remains unchanged to 3.0% Minimum requirements for own funds and eligible liabilities (MREL) On 22 April 2024, Alpha Bank S.A. received a communication letter from the European Single Resolution Board (SRB) including its decision for the minimum requirements for own funds and eligible liabilities (MREL). The requirements are based on the Recovery and Resolution Directive (“BRRD2”), which was incorporated into the Greek Law 4799/2021 on 18.5.2021. At the same time, by the same decision, the Resolution Authority defined the single point of entry (SPE) resolution strategy. The letter also sets out the intermediate MREL targets to be met from 1 January 2024 up to 31 December 2024, i.e. 18.81% ** of TREA and 5.91% of LRE. Following the Decision of SRB on 20 December 2024, Alpha Bank received the binding Minimum Requirement of Own Funds and Eligible Liabilities (MREL), according to which the Bank needs to meet from 30 June 2025 on a consolidated basis an MREL requirement of 23.57% of Total Risk Exposure Amount (TREA) and 5.91% of Leverage Exposure (LRE). The Decision also sets out that the binding target of AB SA also reflect the MCC allowance. The said MREL requirements expressed as a percentage of TREA do not include the Combined Buffer Requirement (CBR), equal to 3.69% as of 31.12.2024. Furthermore, the Resolution Authority has decided that Alpha Bank S.A. is not subject to requirement for subordinated MREL. Minimum requirements for own funds and eligible liabilities (MREL), including the transition compliance period, are subject to annual review/approval from SRB. On 31 December 2024, the Bank’s MREL ratio stood at 29.04%, which is well above the interim non-binding target of 22.50% of the Total Risk Exposure Amount (TREA) (effective 01.01.2024, including CBR). The ratio includes the profit of the financial reporting period that ended on 31 December 2024 post a provision for dividend payout. * Supervisory disclosures regarding capital adequacy and risk management in accordance with Regulation 575/2013 (Pillar III) will be published on the Bank’s website. ** Excluding CBR CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31.12.2024 387 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT 49.

Non-Performing loans continue to be measured in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 9, however, for those loans measured at amortised cost, the estimate of expected credit loss incorporates the sale scenario with 100% probability weight, taking into consideration the interested / preferred investors’ prices and the estimated costs for the completion of the transactions. Similarly, for loans measured at fair value through profit or loss the determination of fair value is based also on investors’ prices. For other assets classified as Held for sale the fair value is calculated at each reporting period in accordance with the methods referred to in note 1.2.7, considering offers from the investors for the items included in the perimeter that is expected to be transferred in conjunction with Management decisions for the completion of the transactions. Fair vales in terms of fair value hierarchy are classified as Level 3, since they make use of data from market research, estimates and data which refer to financial assets of similar characteristics and therefore make use of significant non-observable market input.

Taking into consideration the transaction costs the Group recognised a profit from sale of € 7. As regards to Alpha Life, the transaction is expected to be completed within H1 2025.

Therefore, Alpha Leasing Romania and Alpha Insurance Brokers continue to be classified as assets held for sale and more specifically as a new distinct disposal group while their results are presented as discontinued operations.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF ALPHA SERVICES AND HOLDINGS S.A. AS AT 31.12.2024 407 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES APPLIED 1.1 Basis of presentation The financial statements for the year ended 31.12.2024 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as adopted by the European Union, in accordance with Regulation 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union on 19 July 2002. The accounting policies applied by the Company in preparing the financial statements are the same as those stated in the published financial statements for the year ended on 31.12.2023, after taking into account the amendments to standards which were issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), adopted by the European Union and applied on 1.1.2024, regarding which further analysis is provided in note 1.1.2. The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis with the exception of the investment securities measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. The financial statements are presented in Euro, rounded to the nearest million, unless otherwise indicated. Any differences between the amounts presented in the primary financial statements and the relevant amounts presented in the accompanying notes are due to rounding. The financial statements as at 31.12.2024 have been prepared based on the going concern principle. It is noted that since the activity of the Company is directly related to the activity of the new credit institution that is its subsidiary, the assessment of the going concern principle of the Company is directly related to the going concern of the Bank and the Group. For the application of this principle, the Board of Directors considered current economic developments and made estimates for the formation, in the near future, of the economic environment in which it operates. In this context, the Board of Directors assessed the following areas which are considered important during its assessment: Developments in the macroeconomic environment The macroeconomic environment is characterized by uncertainty, which is mainly caused by the following: • Geopolitical developments and inflationary pressures, and in particular the continuation and outcome of the war in Ukraine and the tensions in the Middle East and the Red Sea. Despite the recent ceasefire in Gaza, a possible re-escalation of the conflict between Israel and Iran could trigger a new energy crisis and consequently inflationary pressures, especially if Iranian oil facilities are affected. • The risks for the Greek economy arising from possible natural disasters or any impacts of climate change, such as the extreme weather events that have affected various regions of the country in recent years. • Political instability in major European countries and important trading partners of Greece such as France and Germany, as well as the effects of USA policy with the possible increase in trade protectionism, which are likely to have a negative impact on the external sector of the Greek economy in the coming years. However, despite the fact that the economic environment is characterized by uncertainty, the Greek economy is expected to remain resilient, achieving high GDP growth rates (between 2% and 2.5%) in the two years 2024-2025, supported by the continued strengthening of employment, tourism performance, the gradual normalization of inflationary pressures, the implementation of investments both within the framework of the Recovery and Resilience Fund and the Public Investment Program, as well as the expected increase in Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and exports. Liquidity The Group's liquidity levels are particularly satisfactory, as evidenced by the liquidity ratios (liquidity coverage ratio and net stable liquidity ratio) which remain at high levels and significantly exceed the regulatory limits set, the stress tests for liquidity purposes conducted internally, which demonstrate that the Bank remains viable in all scenarios, as well as the annual update of the Recovery Plan, completed in September 2024, which showed that the Bank is able to respond even to particularly adverse liquidity crisis scenarios. Finally, in 2024, the credit rating agency Moody's upgraded, among other things, the Bank's long-term senior debt rating to Investment Grade, confirming its potential to achieve higher sustainable profitability, while improving the resilience of its balance sheet Capital Adequacy The Group, due to the strong profitability of the year and the successful completion of the planned bond issues, maintains a strong capital base from both a financial and regulatory perspective, while the MREL ratio provides an adequate buffer against the interim MREL requirements that must be met from 30.6.2025. Strategic Plan Taking into account the actions taken in the context of the implementation of the Group's strategic plan as well as the fact that so far the goals that had been set have been achieved, a significant improvement in profitability and qualitative structure of the balance sheet is expected, as well as the creation of capital, which ensure the availability of the required resources for the continuation of the Group's activities and its further development. 1.1.2 Adoption of new standards and of amendments to standards The following are the new standards and the amendments to standards applied from 1.1.2024: Amendment to International Financial Reporting Standard 16 “Leases”: Lease liability in a sale and leaseback (Regulation 2023/2579/20.11.2023) On 22 September 2022, the International Accounting Standards Board amended IFRS 16 in order to clarify that, in a sale and leaseback transaction, the seller-lessee shall determine “lease payments” or “revised lease payments” in a way that he would not recognize any amount of the gain or loss that relates to the right of use retained. In addition, in case of partial or full termination of a lease, the seller-lessee is not prevented from recognizing in profit or loss any gain or loss resulting from this termination. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF ALPHA SERVICES AND HOLDINGS S.A. AS AT 31.12.2024 408 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The adoption of the above amendment had no impact on the financial statements of the Company. Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements”: Classification of liabilities as current or non-current (Regulation 2023/2822/19.12.2023) On 23.1.2020, the International Accounting Standards Board issued amendments to IAS 1 relating to the classification of liabilities as current or non-current. More specifically: • The amendments specify that the conditions which exist at the end of the reporting period are those which will be used to determine if the liability must be classified as current or non-current. • Management expectations about events after the balance sheet date must not be taken into account. • The amendments clarify the situations that are considered settlement of a liability. The adoption of the above amendment had no impact on the financial statements of the Company since in it’s balance sheet liabilities are not classified as current and non-current. Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements”: Non-current liabilities with covenants (Regulation 2023/2822/19.12.2023) On 31.10.2022, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued an amendment to IAS 1 with which it provided clarifications regarding the classification as current or non-current of a liability that an entity has the right to defer for at least 12 months and which is subject to compliance with covenants. More specifically, it was clarified that only covenants with which an entity is required to comply on or before the reporting date affect the classification of a liability as current or non-current. The adoption of the above amendment had no impact on the financial statements of the Company since in it’s balance sheet liabilities are not classified as current and non-current. Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 7 “Statement of Cash Flows” and Amendment to the International Financial Reporting Standards 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures”: Supplier Finance Arrangements (Regulation 2024/1317/15.5.2024) On 25.5.2023, the International Accounting Standards Board amended IAS 7 and IFRS 7 for the purpose of providing disclosures regarding supplier finance arrangements. These are agreements that companies enter into with third party finance providers, who undertake to repay amounts the entities owe their suppliers. Then the entity will have to repay the third-party finance provider based on the terms of the agreement between them. Also, IFRS 7 was amended to include access to such agreements with third finance providers in the liquidity risk disclosures. The adoption of the above amendments had no impact on the financial statements of the Company. In addition, the European Union has adopted the following amendment to IAS 21 which is effective for annual periods beginning after 1.1.2024 and has not been early adopted by the Company. Amendment to the International Accounting Standard 21 “The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates”: Lack of exchangeability (Regulation 2024/2862/12.11.2024) Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2025 On 15.8.2023, the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to IAS 21 regarding currencies that lack exchangeability. The amendment clarifies how an entity should assess whether a currency is exchangeable and how it should determine a spot exchange rate when exchangeability is lacking. With the amendment disclosures are also added that enable users of financial statements to understand the impact of a currency that is not exchangeable. The Company is examining the impact from the adoption of the above amendment on its financial statements. In addition, the International Accounting Standards Board has issued the following standards and amendments to standards which have not been endorsed yet by the European Union and which have not been early applied by the Company. Amendment to International Financial Reporting Standard 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures” and to International Financial Reporting Standard 9 “Financial Instruments”: Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2026 On 30.5.2024 the International Accounting Standards Board issued amendments to IFRS 7 and IFRS 9 to address matters identified during the post-implementation review of IFRS 9 regarding classification and measurement of financial instruments. More specifically, the amendments clarify issues relating to the derecognition of a financial liability settled through electronic matter and the assessment of whether the cash flows of a financial asset are solely payments of principal and interest while they provide for disclosures for equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and contractual terms that could change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows on the occurrence of a contingent event. The Company is examining the impact from the adoption of the above amendments on its financial statements. Amendment to International Financial Reporting Standard 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures” and to International Financial Reporting Standard 9 “Financial Instruments”: Contracts Referencing Nature-dependent Electricity Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2026 On 18.12.2024, the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to IFRS 9 to specify the factors that should be considered to determine whether contracts referencing nature-dependent electricity are within its scope and under what conditions a contract for nature dependent renewable electricity can be designated as a hedging instrument. IFRS 7 was also amended to include disclosures regarding such contracts. The Company is examining the impact from the adoption of the above amendments on its financial statements. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF ALPHA SERVICES AND HOLDINGS S.A. AS AT 31.12.2024 409 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Amendment to International Financial Reporting Standard 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements” and to International Accounting Standard 28 “Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures”: Sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. Effective date: To be determined. On 11.9.2014 the International Accounting Standards Board issued an amendment to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 in order to align the accounting treatment of a transaction of sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture The above amendments do not apply to the financial statements of the Company. International Financial Reporting Standard 14 “Regulatory deferral accounts”. Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2016. On 30.1.2014 the International Accounting Standards Board issued IFRS 14. The new standard, which is limited-scope, addresses the accounting treatment and the disclosures required for regulatory deferral accounts that are maintained in accordance with local legislation when an entity provides rate-regulated goods or services. It is noted that European Union has decided not to launch the endorsement of this standard and to wait for the final standard. The above standard does not apply to the financial statements of the Company. International Financial Reporting Standard 18 “Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements” Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2027 On 9.4.2024 the International Accounting Standards Board issued IFRS 18. IFRS 18 replaces IAS 1 and sets out presentation and disclosure requirements for financial statements. To meet this objective, IFRS 18 introduces: • two new defined subtotals in the statement of profit or loss: operating profit and profit before financing and income taxes, • disclosures about management-defined performance measures (“MPM’s”), and • enhanced requirements for grouping of information (aggregation and disaggregation) in the financial statements. IFRS 18 requires that a company presents income and expenses in separate operating, investing and financing categories. The operating category consists of all income and expenses that are not classified in the investing, financing, income taxes or discontinued operations categories. The Company is examining the impact from the adoption of the above standard on its financial statements. International Financial Reporting Standard 19 “Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures”. Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2027 On 9.5.2024 the International Accounting Standards Board issued IFRS 19. IFRS 19 specifies reduced disclosure requirements that an eligible entity (it is subsidiary, does not have public accountability and has an ultimate or intermediate parent that publishes IFRS consolidated financial statements) is permitted to apply instead of the disclosure requirements in other IFRS Accounting Standards. The above standard does not apply to the financial statements of the Company. Annual Improvements – Volume 11 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1.1.2026 As part of the annual improvements project, the International Accounting Standards Board issued on 18.7.2024 non-urgent but necessary amendments to IFRS 1, IFRS 7, IFRS 9, IFRS 10 and IAS 7. The Company is examining the impact from the adoption of the above amendments on its financial statements. 1.2 Material accounting policies 1.2.1 Transactions in foreign currency and translation of foreign operations a. Transactions in foreign currency The financial statements are presented in Euro, which is the functional currency and the currency of the Company’s country of incorporation. Items included in the financial statements for foreign branches are measured at the functional currency which is the currency of the country of incorporation in which the branch operates or the currency used in the majority of the transactions held. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the closing exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the closing exchange rate at the balance sheet date. Foreign exchange differences arising from the translation are recognized in the income statement. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated using the rate of exchange at the transaction date, except for non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value which are translated at the exchange rate of the date that the fair value is determined. The exchange differences relating to these items are part of the change in fair value and they are recognized in the income statement or recorded directly in equity depending on the classification of the non-monetary item. b. Translation of foreign operations The results and financial position of all foreign branches that have a functional currency that is different from the presentation currency of the Company’s financial statements are translated as follows: • Assets and liabilities are translated to Euro at the closing rate applicable on the balance sheet date. • Income and expense items are translated to Euro at average exchange rates applicable for each period presented. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF ALPHA SERVICES AND HOLDINGS S.A. AS AT 31.12.2024 410 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The resulting exchange differences from the above translation and those arising from other monetary items designated as a part of the net investment in a foreign entity are recorded in equity. These translation differences are reclassified to the income statement when a foreign branch is sold. 1.2.2 Cash and cash equivalents For the purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents consists of: • Cash on hand • Short-term balances due from banks Short-term balances due from banks are those that upon initial recognition mature within three months. Short-term balances due from banks are measured at amortised cost. 1.2.3 Classification and measurement of financial instruments Initial recognition The Company recognises financial assets or financial liabilities in its statement of financial position when it becomes a party to the terms of the contract. At initial recognition the Company measures financial assets and liabilities at fair values. Financial instruments not measured at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value plus or minus transaction costs and income or fees that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial instrument. Regular way purchases and sales of financial instruments are recognized at the settlement date with the exception of equity shares and derivatives that are recognized at the trade date. For bonds that are measured at fair value, the change in fair value during the period between the trade date and the settlement date is recognized in profit or loss or in other comprehensive income based on the bond’s classification category. Subsequent measurement of financial assets The Company classifies its financial assets as: • Financial assets measured at amortised cost, • Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, with gains or losses reclassified in profit or loss on derecognition, • Equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, with no reclassification in gains or losses to profit or loss on derecognition, • Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss. For each of the above categories the following apply: a. Financial assets measured at amortised cost In this category are classified the financial assets that satisfy both of the following criteria: • are held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows, • the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding. The above category is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method and is periodically assessed for expected credit losses, as it is further described in notes 1.2.8 and 1.2.9. b. Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, with gains or losses reclassified in profit or loss on derecognition In this category are classified the financial assets that satisfy both of the following criteria: • are held within a business model whose objective is both to collect contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, • the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding. The above category is periodically assessed for expected credit losses, as it is further described in note 1.2.9. c. Equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, with no reclassification in gains or losses to profit or loss on derecognition In this category are classified equity instruments that are neither held for trading nor contingent consideration arising from a business combination and for which it is opted, at initial recognition, to be measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. This decision is irrevocable. With the exception of dividends, which are directly recognized in profit or loss, all other gains and losses arising from those instruments are directly recognized in other comprehensive income and are not reclassified to profit or loss. For those equity instruments there is no impairment assessment. d. Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets included in this category are: • those acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the near term to obtain short term profit (held for trading). The Company has included in this category bonds, treasury bills and a limited number of shares. • those that do not meet the criteria to be classified into one of the above categories a-c. • those the Company designated, at initial recognition, as at fair value through profit or loss.

AS AT 31.12.2024 411 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT This classification option, which is irrevocable, is used when the designation eliminates an accounting mismatch which would otherwise arise from measuring financial assets and liabilities on a different basis (i.e. amortised cost) in relation to another financial asset or liability (i.e. derivatives which are measured at fair value through profit or loss). As at the reporting date, the Company had not designated, at initial recognition, any financial assets as at fair value through profit or loss. Business Model assessment The business model reflects how the Company manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. That is, the Company’s business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling financial assets or both. The Company’s business model is determined at a level that reflects how groups of financial assets are managed together to achieve a particular business objective. Accordingly, business model does not depend on management’s intentions for an individual instrument but it is determined on a higher level of aggregation. The business models of the Company are determined by the Executive Committee (ExCo). In this context for bonds and in general for fixed income investments, the Company has identified the following business models: • Business model whose objective is to hold financial instruments in order to collect their contractual cash flows (hold to collect) • Business model that aims both at collecting contractual cash flows and selling (hold to collect and sell) • Trading portfolio. • Business model whose objective is achieved by the sale/distribution of the financial assets. The Company, at each reporting date, reassesses its business models in order to confirm that there has been no change compared to the prior period or application of a new business model. In the context of the reassessment of the hold to collect business model past sales as well as expected future sales are taken into account within specific criteria of significance and frequency. It is noted that the sales of non-performing exposures that take place due to the deterioration of the borrowers' credit rating, with the exception of those created by the Company and characterized as credit impaired upon initial recognition, do not affect the hold to collect business model. Solely Payments of Principal and Interest (SPPI) assessment of the contractual cash flows For the purposes of applying the SPPI assessment: • Principal is the fair value of the asset at initial recognition, which may change over the life of the financial asset, (for example if there are repayments of principal). • Interest is the consideration for the time value of money, for the credit risk associated with the principal amount outstanding during a particular period of time and for other basic lending risks (i.e. liquidity risk) and costs, as well as a profit margin. Contractual terms that introduce exposure to risks and volatility in the contractual cash flows that are not related to a basic lending arrangement, such as exposure to changes in equity prices or commodity prices, do not give rise to contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. In this context, in assessing whether contractual cash flows are SPPI, the Company assesses whether the instrument contains contractual terms that change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows such as conversion to equity terms and terms based on which the performance of the instruments is affected by equity or commodity prices. Reclassification of financial assets Reclassifications of financial assets between measurement categories occur when, and only when, the Company changes its business model for managing the assets and IFRS 9 requirements are met. In this case the reclassification is applied prospectively from the first reporting period following the change in the business model. Changes in the business model of the Company that lead to the reclassification of financial assets are expected to be rare. They arise from decisions of the Executive Committee (ExCo) as a result of external or internal changes which must be significant to the entity’s operations. Derecognition of financial assets The Company derecognizes financial assets when: • the contractual rights to the assets cash flows expire, • the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial assets are transferred and at the same time all the risks and rewards of ownership are substantially transferred, • loans or investments in securities are no longer recoverable and consequently are written off, • the contractual cash flows of the assets are significantly modified. Subsequent measurement of financial liabilities The Company classifies financial liabilities in the following categories for measurement purposes: a. Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss • This category includes financial liabilities held for trading, that is: • financial liabilities acquired or incurred principally with the intention of selling or repurchasing in the near term for short term profit, or • derivatives not used for hedging purposes. • This category also includes financial liabilities which are designated by the Company as at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition, when doing so results in more relevant information, because either: • it eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise from measuring assets or liabilities or recognising the gains and losses on them on different bases; or FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF ALPHA SERVICES AND HOLDINGS S.A. AS AT 31.12.2024 412 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • a group of financial liabilities or financial assets and financial liabilities is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the group is provided internally on that basis to the Company’s key management personnel; • Finally, this category includes contracts containing one or more embedded derivatives and the Company measures the compound financial instruments as financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss. It is noted that in the above case, the amount of the change in fair value attributable to the Company’s credit risk is recognized in other comprehensive income, unless this treatment would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss. Amounts recognized in other comprehensive income are never reclassified to profit or loss. As at the reporting date, the Company had not designated, at initial recognition, any financial liabilities as at fair value through profit or loss. b. Financial liabilities carried at amortised cost Liabilities to credit institutions, debt securities issued by the Company and other loan liabilities are classified in this category. The liabilities classified in this category are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. c. Liabilities arising from financial guarantees and commitments to provide loans at a below market interest rate A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payments when due in accordance with the agreed terms. The financial guarantee contracts and the commitments to provide loans at a below market interest rate are initially recognized at fair value, and measured subsequently at the higher of: • the amount of the provision determined during expected credit loss calculation, • the amount initially recognised less cumulative amortization which is calculated based on the term of the instrument. d. Financial liabilities that arise when a transfer of a financial asset does not qualify for derecognition or when the continuing involvement approach applies In the first case the liability should be equal to the amount received during the transfer while in the second case it should measured in such a way that the net carrying amount of the transferred asset and the associated liability is: • The amortised cost of the rights and obligations retained by the Company, if the transferred asset is measured at amortised cost or • Equal to the fair value of the rights and obligations retained by the Company when measured on a stand-alone basis, if the transferred asset is measured at fair value. e. Contingent consideration recognized by an acquirer in a business combination Such contingent consideration is subsequently measured at fair value with changes recognized in profit or loss. Derecognition of financial liabilities Financial liabilities (or part thereof) are derecognized when the contractual obligation is been discharged, cancelled or expires. When a financial liability is exchanged for another liability with substantially different terms, the exchange is accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new one. The same applies in cases of a substantial modification of the terms of an existing financial liability or a part of it (whether or not attributable to the financial difficulty of the debtor). The terms are considered substantially different if the discounted present value of the cash flows under the new terms (including any fees paid net of any fees received), discounted using the original effective interest rate, is at least 10% different from the present value of the remaining cash flows of the original financial liability. In cases of derecognition, the difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability (or part of the financial liability) extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss. Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the amounts are reported net on the balance sheet, only when the Company has the legally enforceable right to offset recognized amounts and there is the intention to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 1.2.4 Fair Value Measurement Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The Company measures the fair value of assets and liabilities traded in active markets based on available quoted market prices. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, pricing service or regulatory agency, and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length basis. The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by the use of valuation techniques, appropriate in the circumstances, and for which sufficient data to measure fair value are available, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs. If observable inputs are not available, other model inputs are used which are based on estimations and assumptions such as the determination of expected future cash flows, discount rates, probability of counterparty default and prepayments. In all cases, the Company uses the assumptions that “market participants” would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest. Assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value or for which - fair value is disclosed-, are categorized according to the inputs used to measure their fair value as follows: • Level 1 inputs: quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets, FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF ALPHA SERVICES AND HOLDINGS S.A. AS AT 31.12.2024 413 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • Level 2 inputs: directly or indirectly observable inputs, • Level 3 inputs: unobservable inputs used by the Company, to the extent that relevant observable inputs are not available. More specifically for financial instruments, the best evidence of fair value at initial recognition is the transaction price, unless the fair value can be derived by other observable market transactions relating to the same instrument, or by a valuation technique using mainly observable inputs. In these cases, if the fair value differs from the transaction price, the difference is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income. In all other cases, fair value is adjusted to defer the difference with the transaction price. After initial recognition, the deferred difference is recognized as a gain or loss only to the extent that it arises from a change in a factor that market participants would take into account when pricing the instrument. When measuring fair value, the Company takes into consideration the effect of credit risk. 1.2.5 Investments in subsidiaries This caption includes Company’s investments in subsidiaries. Investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost, plus any expenses directly attributable to their acquisition less impairment losses. The acquisition cost also includes the issues of the subsidiary companies which are recognized as equity instruments and which are held by the Company. Dividends received by the Company from the above investments are recognised in the income statement when the dividend distribution is approved by the appropriate body of the company that the Company has invested in. In case of absorption of a subsidiary or of a sector that satisfies the definition of a business, the Company applies the provisions of IFRS 3 for business combinations, as described in more detail in note 1.2.1 of the consolidated financial statements as at 31.12.2024. Corporate reorganizations under the same Group, which are made through the establishment of a new company that absorbs assets and liabilities of another company which satisfy the definition of business under IFRS 3, are not business combinations since the new company does not satisfy the definition of an acquirer. Under the policy applied by the Company, those transactions are accounted for by transferring assets and liabilities at the book values in the books of the company that makes the transfer. Additionally, both in the separate and group financial statements of the new company, information is included from the date of the corporate reorganization. However, in case corporate reorganization is inextricably linked to the transfer of the new company or of the above assets and liabilities to a third-party investor, the transfer of the assets and liabilities is accounted for at their fair value at the date of the corporate reorganization. 1.2.6 Property, plant and equipment This caption includes the equipment used by the Company. Equipment is initially recognised at cost which includes any expenditure directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. Subsequently, equipment is measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Subsequent expenditure is recognized on the carrying amount of the item when it increases future economic benefit for the Company and it can be measured reliably. Expenditure on repairs and maintenance is recognized in profit or loss as an expense as incurred. Depreciation is charged on a straight line basis over the estimated useful lives of the equipment and it is calculated on the asset’s cost minus residual value. The estimated useful life of the equipment has been defined from 5 to 14 years. The residual value of the equipment and its useful life is periodically reviewed and adjusted if necessary at each reporting date. Equipment is reviewed on an annual basis to determine whether there is an indication of impairment and if they are impaired the carrying amount is adjusted to its recoverable amount with the difference recorded in profit or loss. In case of sale of equipment as well as when no economic benefits are expected for the Company, the fixed asset is derecognised. When selling the asset, the difference between the sale price and its carrying amount is recognized in profit or loss. 1.2.7 Goodwill and other intangible assets The Company has included in this caption: a. Goodwill which represents the difference between the cost of an acquisition as well as the value of non-controlling interests and the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the entity acquired, as at the acquisition date. Positive goodwill is recorded to “Goodwill and other intangible assets”, if it relates to the acquisition of a subsidiary, and it is tested for impairment at each balance sheet date. Negative goodwill is recognized in profit or loss. b. Software, which is measured at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses. Expenditure incurred to maintain software programs is recognized in the income statement as incurred. Software that is considered to be an integral part of hardware is classified in property, plant and equipment. More specifically, separately acquired software is initially measured at cost which comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable cost of preparing the software for its intended use, including employee benefits or professional fees. Software acquired as part of a business combination is initially measured at fair value. Both software separately acquired and acquired as part of a business combination is depreciated, using the straight line method, during its useful life which has been set from 2 to 15 years. Regarding internally generated software, the Company recognizes an intangible asset when it can demonstrate all of the following at the development phase: • the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale; • its intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it; • its ability to use or sell the intangible asset; FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF ALPHA SERVICES AND HOLDINGS S.A. AS AT 31.12.2024 414 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • how the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits; • the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset; • its ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during is development. Expenditure incurred during the research phase is directly recognized in profit or loss. Consequently, the cost of an internally generated intangible asset is the sum of expenditure incurred from the date when the intangible asset first meets the above criteria, including employee benefits arising from the generation of the software. Internally generated software is depreciated during its useful life which has been set from 2 to 15 years. All intangible assets are assessed for impairment when there are triggers for impairment (note 1.2.10). No residual value is estimated for intangible assets. In case of sale of an intangible asset the intangible asset is derecognized, while when no economic benefits are expected for the Company, its value is fully impaired. When selling the asset, the difference between the sale price and its carrying amount is recognized in profit or loss. 1.2.8 Credit impairment losses on advances to customers The Company, at each reporting date, recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on advances to customers. The loss allowance for advances to customers is measured at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses (there is no stage allocation) based on the simplified approach provided by IFRS 9. 1.2.9 Credit impairment losses on due from banks and bonds The Company, at each reporting date, recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on due from banks and bonds not measured at fair value through profit or loss. The loss allowance is based on expected credit losses related to the probability of default within the next twelve months (Stage 1), unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk from the date of initial recognition or the instrument has become impaired in which cases expected credit losses are recognized over the life of the instrument (Stage 2 and 3). In addition, if the financial asset falls under the definition of purchased or originated credit impaired (POCI) financial assets, a loss allowance equal to the lifetime expected credit losses is recognized. An instrument is characterized as purchased or originated credit impaired when: • The instrument (or the issuer) has an external rating that corresponds to default at the time of acquisition • Corporate bonds resulting from debt restructuring are classified as purchased or originated credit impaired, based on the guidelines applicable to the loan portfolio of the Bank. When a debt security has been purchased at a large discount and does not fall into any of the categories mentioned above, the Company examines the transaction in detail (transaction price, recovery rate, issuer’s financial condition at the time of purchase, etc.) in order to determine whether it should be recognised as purchased or originated credit-impaired (POCI). Classification in this category requires documentation and approval by the relevant committees of the Company. Default definition Due from banks and bonds are considered impaired when the external rating of the issuer/counterparty is equivalent to default (D). In case there is no external rating, then the instrument is characterized as impaired based on internal rating. If there is also an exposure to the corporate issuer/counterparty to the loan portfolio of the Bank which has been classified as impaired, the instrument is also characterized as impaired. Calculation of expected credit loss The expected credit loss is the present value of the difference between: • the contractual cash flows and • the cash flows that the Company expects to receive For present value calculation, original effective interest rate is used as a discount rate. Especially for POCI assets credit-adjusted effective interest rate is used. More information on the calculation of expected credit loss is included in note 26.1. Presentation of expected credit losses in financial statements Loss allowances for expected credit losses are presented in the Balance Sheet as follows: • Financial assets measured at amortised cost: loss allowance is presented as a deduction from the gross carrying amount of the assets. • Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income: for those assets no loss allowance is recognized in the Balance Sheet, however, its amount is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. The amount of expected credit losses for the period is presented in the caption “Impairment losses, provisions to cover credit risk and related expenses”. The caption includes also the favourable changes in expected credit losses of POCI assets in case expected credit losses are less than the amount of expected credit losses included in the estimated cash flows on initial recognition. 1.2.10 Impairment losses on investments and non-financial assets The Company assess as at each balance sheet date its investments in subsidiaries as well as non-financial assets for impairment, particularly, goodwill and other intangible assets and at least annually property, plant and equipment. In assessing whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired both external and internal sources of information are considered, of which the following are indicatively mentioned: • The asset’s market value has declined significantly, more than would be expected as a result of the passage of time or normal use. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF ALPHA SERVICES AND HOLDINGS S.A. AS AT 31.12.2024 415 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT • Significant changes with an adverse effect have taken place during the period or will take place in the near future, in the technological, economic or legal environment in which the entity operates or in the market to which the asset is dedicated. • Significant unfavorable changes in foreign exchange rates. • Market interest rates or other rates of return of investments have increased during the period, and those increases are likely to affect the discount rate used in calculating an asset’s value in use. • The carrying amount of the net assets of the entity is greater than its market capitalization. • The carrying amount of the net assets of the entity on a consolidated basis is less than entity’s acquisition cost in the books of the Company • Evidence is available of obsolescence or physical damage of an asset. In addition, collection of dividends from subsidiaries is considered as a possible impairment indicator when investments are tested for impairment at each reporting date. Specifically for right of use assets, triggers for impairment include: • The existence of leased properties that are neither used nor leased by the Company. • The fact that the present value of the leases received in the event of a sublease is lower than the value of the rents paid under the lease. An impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss when the recoverable amount of an asset is less than its carrying amount. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. For the valuation of property, plant and equipment, the calculation of the recoverable amount includes all improvements which render the asset perfectly suitable for its use by the Company. An impairment loss recognised in prior periods shall be reversed in case of a change in the estimates for the determination of the recoverable amount. The increased carrying amount of the asset attributable to the reversal of an impairment loss shall not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill shall not be reversed. 1.2.11 Income tax Income tax consists of current and deferred tax. Current tax for a period includes the expected amount of income tax payable in respect of the taxable profit for the current reporting period, based on the tax rates enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax is the tax that will be paid or for which relief will be obtained in future periods and it is calculated based on the temporary differences between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their respective carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated using the tax rates that are expected to apply when the temporary difference reverses, based on the tax rates (and laws) enacted at the balance sheet date. A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized. In addition, deferred tax assets are not recognized from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and at the time it takes place affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit. Furthermore, regarding investments in subsidiaries, deferred tax assets are recognized only when it is probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized. Income tax, both current and deferred, is recognized in profit or loss except when it relates to items recognized directly in equity. In such cases, the respective income tax is also recognized in equity. In this context, the tax related to the dividend distribution, as assessed to constitute the payment of the return on the AT1 instrument, is recognized in profit or loss. 1.2.12 Non-current assets held for sale Non-current assets or disposal groups that are expected to be recovered principally through a sale transaction, along with the related liabilities, are classified as held-for-sale. The above classification is used if the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition and its sale is highly probable. The sale is considered highly probable when it has been decided by the competent bodies of the Management, an active programme to locate a buyer has been initiated, the asset is actively marketed for sale at a price which is reasonable in relation to its current fair value, and the sale is expected to be completed within one year. In the event that the sale is not completed within one year, the asset remains classified as held for sale when the cause of the delay is beyond the Company’s control and/or when the Company is still committed to the plan for its disposal and the sale is considered probable. Non-current assets that are acquired exclusively with a view to their subsequent disposal are classified as held for sale at the acquisition date when the one-year requirement is met and it is highly probable that the remaining criteria will be met within a short period following the acquisition (usually within three months). Before their classification as held for sale, the assets are remeasured in accordance with the respective accounting standard. Assets held for sale are initially recognised and subsequently remeasured at each balance sheet date at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell. Any loss arising from the above measurement is recorded in profit or loss and can be reversed in the future. In this case, the gain from any subsequent increase in fair value less costs to sell cannot exceed the cumulative impairment losses that have been recognized. When the loss relates to a disposal group it is allocated to assets within the disposal group with the exception of specific assets that are not within the scope FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF ALPHA SERVICES AND HOLDINGS S.A. AS AT 31.12.2024 416 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT of IFRS 5. The impairment loss on a disposal group is first allocated to goodwill and then to the remaining assets and liabilities on a pro-rata basis. Assets in this category are not depreciated. Gains or losses from the sale of these assets are recognized in the income statement. Non-current assets held for sale, that the Company subsequently decides either to use or to lease, are reclassified to the categories of property, plant and equipment or investment property respectively. . Also, assets cease to be classified as held for sale when the classification criteria are no longer met. During their reclassification, they are measured at the lower of their recoverable amount and their carrying amount before they were classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation, amortization or revaluation that would have been recognized had the assets not been classified as held for sale. Non-current assets that the Company intends to sell but are not available for immediate sale or are not expected to be sold within a year are included in Other Assets and are measured at the lower of cost (or carrying amount) and net realizable value in accordance with IAS 2. Net realizable value is considered equal to fair value less cost to sell. 1.2.13 Variable remuneration a. Variable remuneration paid in cash The obligation to pay variable remuneration to employees in cash, either through payroll or under a profit-sharing scheme, is recognized in the fiscal year for the performance of which the benefit is provided or during the servicing period in case the payment is deferred in order to be paid gradually in future years, provided that the employee remains in service. The cost of the remuneration is recognized in Staff Costs. b. Share options granted to employees The granting of share options to the employees, their exact number, the price and the exercise date are decided by the Board of Directors in accordance with Shareholders’ Meeting approvals and after taking into account the current legal framework. The fair value calculated at grant date is recognized during the servicing period and recorded in staff costs when employees offer their services to the Company or increase the acquisition cost of the subsidiary (as a capital contribution) to which the employees offer their services (or the intermediate subsidiary in case the employees offer their services to a subsidiary in which the Company has an indirect interest) with a corresponding increase of a reserve in equity. When there are no vesting conditions, it is considered that services have been received. On the contrary, when there are service vesting conditions the expense or the increase in subsidiary’s acquisition cost are recognized as the relative services are received. In case there are conditions that are not vesting conditions, they are taken into account in share options valuation. The amount paid by the beneficiaries of share options on the exercise date increases the share capital of the Company and the reserve in equity from the previously recognized fair value of the exercised options is transferred to share premium. The reserve in equity from the previously recognized fair value of the unexercised options is transferred to retained earnings. c. Share awards granted to employees The granting of stock awards to the employees is decided by the Board of Directors within the framework approved by the Shareholders’ Meeting. The fair value of the award, determined at the grant date, is recognized in staff costs when employees offer their services to the Company or increase the acquisition cost of the subsidiary (as a capital contribution) to which the employees offer their services (or the intermediate subsidiary in case the employees offer their services to a subsidiary in which the Company has an indirect interest) with a corresponding increase of a reserve in equity. When there are no vesting conditions, it is considered that services have been received. On the contrary, when there are service vesting conditions the expense or the increase in subsidiary’s acquisition cost is recognized as the relative services are received. In case there are conditions that are not vesting conditions, they are taken into account in the award’s valuation. At the time of registration of the shares in the portion of the beneficiaries, any difference between the acquisition cost of the treasury shares offered and the formed reserve that is used is recognized in retained earnings. 1.2.14 Provisions and contingent liabilities A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are, also, recognized in cases of restructuring plans with which management attempts either to change the subject of a corporate activity or the manner in which it is conducted (e.g. close down business locations). The recognition of provision is accompanied with the relevant, authorized by the Management, program and with the suitable actions of disclosure. A restructuring provision includes only the direct expenditures arising from the restructuring, which are those that are both necessarily entailed by the restructurings and not associated with the ongoing activity of the Company. The amount recognized as a provision shall be the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the amount of the provision is equal to the present value of the expenditures expected to settle the obligation. Amounts paid for the settlement of an obligation are set against the original provisions for these obligations. Provisions are reviewed at the end of each reporting period. If it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed. Additionally, provisions are not recognized for future operating losses. Future events that may affect the amount required to settle the obligation, for which a provision has been recognized, are taken into account when sufficient objective evidence exists that they will occur. Reimbursements from third parties relating to a portion of or all of the estimated cash outflow are recognized as assets, only when it is virtually certain that they will be received while their amount shall not exceed the amount of the provision. The expense recognized in profit or loss relating to the provision is presented net of the amount of the reimbursement provided that both amounts are recognized within the same fiscal year. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF ALPHA SERVICES AND HOLDINGS S.A. AS AT 31.12.2024 417 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT The Company does not recognize in the statement of financial position contingent liabilities when it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or the amount of liability cannot be measured reliably or in cases where the obligation is possible only to the extent that one or more uncertain future events occur, which are not only within the control of the Company. The Company provides disclosures for contingent liabilities taking into consideration their materiality. 1.2.15 Equity Distinction between debt and equity Financial instruments issued by the Company to obtain funding are classified as equity when, based on the substance of the transaction, the Company does not undertake a contractual obligation to deliver cash or another financial asset or to exchange financial instruments under conditions that are potentially unfavorable to the issuer. AT1 titles have been classified in this category since they are perpetual and there is no oblligation to pay either principal or interest. In cases when the Company is required to issue equity instruments in exchange for the funding obtained, the number of equity instruments must be fixed and determined on the initial contract, in order for the obligation to be classified as equity. Distributions to the holders of equity instruments are directly recognized by debiting the equity of the Company. Incremental costs of share capital increase Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from retained earnings. Share premium Share premium includes the difference between the nominal value of the shares and the cost consideration received in the case of a share capital increase. It also includes the difference between the nominal value of the shares issued and their market value, in cases of exchanges of shares as consideration for the acquisition of a business by the Company. Treasury shares The cost of acquiring treasury shares is recognized as a reduction of equity. Subsequent gains or losses from the sale of treasury shares, after deducting all direct costs and taxes, are recognized directly in retained earnings. Dividends Dividends are deducted from retained earnings or specific equity reserves and recorded as a liability in the period that the dividend is approved by the Shareholders’ General Meeting. Distributions of non-cash assets Distributions of non-cash assets take place at the fair value of the asset distributed. Any difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the asset distributed is directly recognised in profit or loss. 1.2.16 Interest income and expense Interest income and expense is recognized in the income statement for all interest bearing financial assets and liabilities. Interest income and expense is recognised on an accrual basis and measured using the effective interest method. Especially for POCI assets, interest income is calculated using credit-adjusted effective interest rate. Effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial asset or financial liability to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset or to the amortised cost of a financial liability. When calculating the effective interest rate, the Company estimates the expected cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the financial instrument but does not consider the expected credit losses. The calculation includes all fees and points paid or received between parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. For financial assets, in particular, the following apply: • For those financial assets classified within Stage 1 or Stage 2 for the purpose of expected credit losses measurement, interest income is calculated by applying effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of the asset. • For those financial assets classified within Stage 3 for the purpose of expected credit losses measurement, interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the amortised cost of the asset. • For purchased or originated credit impaired financial assets interest income is calculated by applying the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortised cost of the asset. In case of negative interest rates, interest is presented within interest income for interest bearing financial liabilities and within interest expense for interest bearing financial assets. Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to assets that require a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale are capitalized as part of the cost of the asset. Capitalisation ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use are complete. 1.2.17 Fee and commission income Fees and commission income from contracts with customers are recognized based on the consideration specified in the contract when the Company satisfies the performance obligation by transferring the service to the customer. For commissions on services provided over time, revenue is recognized as the service is being provided to the customer.. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF ALPHA SERVICES AND HOLDINGS S.A. AS AT 31.12.2024 418 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT For transaction-based fees, the execution and completion of the transaction executed signals the point in time, at which the service is transferred to the customer and the revenue is recognized. Transaction revenues relating to the recognition of a financial instrument not measured at fair value through profit or loss are capitalized and amortised in the income statement using the effective interest method over the life of the financial instrument and included in interest income. In particular, with regards to fee income for promotion and distribution of Insurance Products (bankassurance) the entity is entitled to a commission as a percentage of sales that is recognized in profit or loss as sales occur. The entity is also entitled to a performance bonus that is accounted as a variable consideration recognized in profit or loss based on the progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation (actual sales), provided that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. 1.2.18 Discontinued operations A discontinued operation is a component of the Company that either has been disposed of, or has been classified as held for sale and represents: • a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations or • part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations. The post tax profit or loss from discontinued operations and any losses recognized on the measurement to fair value less costs to sell of the disposal group are presented in a separate line in the face of the income statement after net profit from continuing operations. The comparative financial statements are restated only for the income statement and the cash flow statement. 1.2.19 Related parties definition According to IAS 24, a related party is a person or entity that is related to the entity that is preparing its financial statements. For the Company, in particular, related parties are considered: • An entity that constitutes for the Company: • a subsidiary, • a joint venture • an associate and • the Post-employment Benefit Plan, in this case the TEA Group Alpha Services and Holdings • A person or an entity that have control, or joint control, or significant influence over the Company. • A person and his close family members, if that person is a member of the key management personnel. The Company considers as key management personnel all the members of the Company’s Board of Directors and of the Company’s Executive Committee while as their close family members it considers their children and spouses or domestic partners and their dependents and the dependents of their spouses or domestic partners. Related parties are also considered the entities controlled or jointly controlled by the above mentioned persons and more specifically the entities in which the above persons participate with more than 20%. 1.2.20 Earnings per share Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing profit or loss attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are calculated using the same method as the calculation of basic earnings per share, however, both the nominator and the denominator are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. 1.2.21 Comparatives To the extent considered necessary the comparatives have been adjusted to facilitate changes in presentation of the current year amounts. 1.3 Significant accounting judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty Significant accounting judgments The Company, in the context of applying accounting policies, makes judgments and assessments which have a significant impact on the amounts recognized in the financial statements. Those judgements relate to the following: Income Tax (notes 10, 25) The recognition of assets and liabilities for current and deferred tax is affected, interalia, by the interpretation of the applicable tax legislation, the practical implementation of the relevant legislation and the settlement of disputes that might exist with tax authorities. When assessing the tax treatment of all significant transactions, the Company takes into account and evaluates all available data (Circulars of the Ministry of Finance, case law, administrative practices, etc.) and / or opinions received from internal and external legal advisers. Future tax audits and changes in tax legislation may result in the adjustment of the amount of assets and liabilities for current and deferred tax and in tax payments other than those recognized in the financial statements of the Company. Key sources of estimation uncertainty Key sources of estimation uncertainty used by the Company in the context of applying its accounting principles and relating to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period are presented below. Final amounts in the next periods may be significantly different from those recognised in these financial statements. Impairment losses on investments in subsidiaries and on non - financial assets The Company, at each reporting date, assesses for impairment its intangible assets and its investments in subsidiaries, and at least on an annual basis property, plant and equipment. Management estimates the recoverable amount of the assets, i.e. the higher between the fair value less costs to sell and value in use by performing an impairment exercise, which includes inputs and assumptions that are inherently FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF ALPHA SERVICES AND HOLDINGS S.A. AS AT 31.12.2024 419 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT uncertain. In cases where the sale of such items is imminent, the fair value derives from the estimated price of the transaction considering any other element that could impact the recoverable amount upon the completion of the transaction. Revenue recognized from variable consideration in contracts with customers (note 15) The Company under the contract of distribution of insurance products is entitled to a performance bonus on the achievement of a specified sales target in the future. As a result, this amount represents a variable consideration which, however, according to the Company’s assessment, is not considered constrained since the successful achievement of the target is highly dependent on factors that are within its influence. Revenue is recognized as sales occur since it has been assessed that the best method for measuring progress towards satisfaction of the performance obligation is the appraisal of sales achieved. At the end of each reporting period, the Company updates its method for measuring progress of performance obligation, as well as its assessment of whether the estimate of variable consideration is not constrained. The estimates and judgments applied by the Company in making decisions and in preparing the financial statements are based on historical information and assumptions which at present are considered appropriate. The estimates and judgments are reviewed at each reporting period in order to take into account current conditions, and the effect of any changes is recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF ALPHA SERVICES AND HOLDINGS S.A. AS AT 31.12.2024 429 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT ADDITIONAL INFORMATION 25. Contingent liabilities and commitments a. Legal issues According to the demerger deed, the new bank under the name “ Alpha Bank Societe Anonyme “ is replaced as the universal successor in the Hive-Down of the Banking Division and therefore all pending litigation and related contingent liabilities to the banking activity were transferred to the new bank. As of 31.12.2024 there are no claims or pending litigation against the Company that are expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s Equity or operation. For those cases, that according to their progress and the assessment of the legal department as at 31.12.2024, a negative outcome is not probable or the potential outflow cannot be estimated reliably due to the complexity of the cases, and their duration the Company has not recognized a provision. As of 31.12.2024 the legal claims for the above cases amount to € 291. b. Tax issues According to art.65A of Law 4174/2013 as codified by Law 4987/2022 and currently in force, from the year 2011, the statutory auditors and auditing firms that conduct mandatory audits of societe anonymes are required to issue an annual tax compliance report regarding the application of the tax provisions in certain tax areas. Based on art.56 of Law 4410/3.8.2016 tax compliance reports are optional for the years from 1.1.2016 and thereon. Nevertheless, the intention of Alpha Bank is to continue receiving such tax compliance report. Alpha Bank S.A. emerged from the hive-down of the banking sector and started its operation on 16.4.2021 and the first fiscal year is from 1.7.2020 to 31.12.2021. Alpha Bank S.A. has received a tax compliance report for its first tax year from 1.7.2020 to 31.12.2021 and for tax years 2022 and 2023, according to the article 65A of Law 4174/2013, with no qualification. Tax audit in connection with the tax compliance report of 2024 is in progress. The Bank’s branch in Luxembourg started its operation on June 2020 and has not been tax audited since its operation. Based on Ministerial Decision 1006/5.1.2016 there is no exemption from tax audit by the tax authorities to those entities that have been tax audited by the independent statutory auditor and they have received an unqualified tax compliance report. Therefore, the tax authorities may reaudit the tax books. Additional taxes, interest on late submission and penalties may be imposed by tax authorities, as a result of tax audits for unaudited tax years, the amount of which cannot be accurately determined. In December 2022, the European Council adopted the EU Directive 2022/2523 for a global minimum tax that is expected to be used by individual jurisdictions. The goal of the framework is to reduce the shifting of profit from one jurisdiction to another, in order to reduce global tax obligations in corporate structures. In March 2022, the OECD released detailed technical guidance on Pillar Two of the rules. As at the date of approval of these annual financial statements, most of the jurisdictions where the Group operates have already incorporated these changes into their domestic legislation with the exception of Serbia which has not enacted legislation to incorporate these rules of Pillar II into its national law yet. As far as Greece is concerned, Law 5100/2024 published in the Official Gazette on 5 April 2024, incorporated the EU Council Directive into Greek legislation and it closely follows the provisions of the EU Pillar Two Directive. The law includes detailed provisions on safe harbors, including a Transitional Country-by-Country (CbC) reporting Safe Harbor, a Transitional Undertaxed Profits Rule (UTPR) Safe Harbor, as well as a permanent Qualified Domestic Minimum Top-up Tax (QDMTT) Safe Harbor. The Company has already taken every necessary action to re-assess the potential impact of those rules on the Group. In particular, the assessment under the safe harbor rules for the 2024 fiscal year has been completed, and the results showed that the Group meets the relevant criteria in all jurisdictions where it operates, therefore no liability arises for payment of top-up tax. The Company has not calculated Deferred Tax Asset or Deferred Tax Liability as a result of Tax calculation of Pillar II d. Pledged assets The entity did not have any pledged assets as at 31.12.2024. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF ALPHA SERVICES AND HOLDINGS S.A. AS AT 31.12.2024 430 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT 26. Risk Management The main financial risks to which the Company is exposed are as follows: 26.1. Credit Risk The credit risk to which the Company is exposed comes from the following: DUE FROM BANKS Exposure to credit institutions relates to bank sight deposits. Since these deposits are readily available, i.e. with short maturities which exhibit negligible probabilities of default, they were excluded from ECL calculation. INVESTMENTS IN DEBT SECURITIES Investments in debt securities relate to securities that are classified into investment security portfolio. These positions are subject to Bank investment limits and issuer’s limits and are monitored on a daily basis. At each reporting date, a loss allowance for expected credit losses on bonds, which are not measured at fair value through profit or loss, is recognized. In addition, if the debt securities fall under the definition of purchased or originated credit impaired (POCI) financial assets, a loss allowance equal to the lifetime expected credit losses is recognized. The loss allowance is based on expected credit losses related to the probability of default within the next twelve months, unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk from the date of initial recognition in which case expected credit losses are recognized over the life of the instrument. Credit risk of investment in debt securities is assessed based on credit ratings of rating agencies or internal credit rating in case of Greek corporate issuers for which loan exposure exists. The Company defines as low credit risk all investment grade securities, for which it calculates a credit allowance equal to a 12-month expected credit loss (Stage 1). For debt securities, which do not meet the criteria of investment grade, the assessment of the significant increase in credit risk for which calculation of lifetime expected credit losses is required (Stage 2), is based on the two following conditions (whichever occurs first): Downgrade by at least two notches of the counterparty credit rating between the reporting date and the initial recognition date The 12-month PD at reporting date is above 5% in absolute terms and has increased more than 50% compared to the respective PD existing at initial recognition date In addition, the Company is monitoring, the change in credit spreads since the initial recognition date. A change in the credit spread of the issue of more than 500bps since the initial recognition date is a trigger for the review of the debt instrument staging. Depending on the outcome of the above review the debt instrument will remain at Stage 1 or be allocated at Stage 2, regardless of whether the primary staging criteria for allocation to Stage 2 have been triggered or not. DUE FROM CUSTOMERS AND ACCRUED INCOME The Company recognizes provision for the expected credit losses regarding due from customers. The said provision is estimated for the lifetime of receivables (no staging) based on the simplified approach as described in IFRS 9. Accrued income includes a contract asset for which no expected credit loss was calculated taking into account the credit rating of the counterparty and the payment history.

Market risk Market risk is the risk of losses arising from unfavorable changes in the value or volatility of interest rates, foreign exchange rates, stock exchange indices, equity prices and commodities. The company is exposed to market risk, which is the risk of potential loss due to adverse changes in market variables, such as changes in interest rates and exchange rates. a. Foreign currency risk The financial assets and liabilities of the Company are in Euro, therefore the foreign exchange risk is eliminated. b. Interest Rate Risk The interest rate risk management framework is determined in accordance with the Asset Liability Risk Management Policy. Based on this framework, the risk analysis is performed through the Interest Rate Gap Analysis. Particularly, assets and liabilities are classified in Gaps depending on their reprising date for floating rate items, or maturity date for fixed rate items. 31.12.2024 31.12.2023 Securities measured at amortized cost Securities measured at amortized cost Stage 1 Total Stage 1 Total Balance 1.1 2 2 4 4 Changes for the year 1.1 - 31.12 - Change in credit risk parameters (1) (1) (2) (2) Allowance for expected credit losses receivables/ securities (1) (1) (2) (2) Closing Balance 31.12 1 1 2 2 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF ALPHA SERVICES AND HOLDINGS S.A. AS AT 31.12.2024 432 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT For those assets and liabilities with no maturity date, the distribution of flows is based on models of their behavior analysis. These models have been validated by the competent Division. Stress interest rate scenarios are carried out on a monthly basis and their impact on the interest income change through EAR (Earnings at Risk) and Equity Value through EVE (Economic Value of Equity) is calculated. Corresponding limits have been set for both measures (EaR & EVE) which are monitored on a regular basis. The following table presents the Interest Rate Repricing Analysis of both Assets and Liabilities, financial and non financial. 31.12.2024 Less than 1 month 1 to 3 months 3 to 6 months 6 to 12 months 1 to 5 years > 5 years Noninterest bearing Total ASSETS Due from Banks 26 26 Investment securities: - Measured at amortized cost 1,155 1,155 Investments in subsidiaries 6,944 6,944 Other Assets 32 32 Assets held for sale 16 16 Total Assets 26 - - - 1,155 - 6,992 8,175 LIABILITIES Due to Banks 20 20 Debt securities in issue and other borrowed funds 1,151 1,151 Deferred tax liabilities 1 1 Other Liabilities 18 18 Total Liabilities - 20 - - 1,151 - 19 1,192 Total Equity - - - - - - 6,983 6,983 Total Liabilities and Equity - 20 - - 1,151 - 7,001 8,175 Open Exposure 26 (20) (3) 3 Cumulative Exposure 26 6 6 6 3 3 - 31.12.2023 Less than 1 month 1 to 3 months 3 to 6 months 6 to 12 months 1 to 5 years > 5 years Noninterest bearing Total ASSETS Due from Banks 18 18 Loans and advances to customers Investment securities: - Measured at amortized cost 1,013 1,013 Investments in subsidiaries 6,639 6,639 Other Assets 30 30 Assets held for sale 16 16 Total Assets 18 - - - 1,013 - 6,685 7,716 LIABILITIES Due to Banks 20 20 Debt securities in issue and other borrowed funds 1,029 1,029 Deferred tax liabilities 1 1 Other Liabilities 15 15 Total Liabilities - 20 - - 1,029 - 17 1,066 Total Equity - - - - - - 6,650 6,650 Total Liabilities and Equity - 20 - - 1,029 - 6,666 7,716 Open Exposure 18 (20) (17) 19 Cumulative Exposure 18 (2) (2) (2) (19) (19) - From the Interest Rate Gap Analysis and from the application of alternative scenarios regarding the changes in the market interest rates or the changes in the base interest rates of the Company, the immediate change in the net interest income and equity relating to securities measured at fair value through other comprehensive income is directly calculated and the respective hedging instruments. In the Interest Rate Gap Analysis, the variance, up to the point it’s feasible (interest rate equals to zero), is studied, according to the interest rate curves by currency in force. It is noted that the sensitivity of the net interest income for the Company is zero as the investment portfolio, Assets and Liabilities include fixed rate securities. 26.3. Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk relates to Company’s ability to maintain sufficient funds to cover its planned or extraordinary obligations. Liquidity Risk comprises both funding liquidity risk and the risk arising from the Company’s failure to recognize or address changes in market conditions that affect the ability to liquidate assets quickly and with minimal loss in value (market liquidity risk). FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF ALPHA SERVICES AND HOLDINGS S.A. AS AT 31.12.2024 433 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT For those assets and liabilities with no maturity date, the distribution of flows is based on models of their behavior analysis. These models have been validated by the competent Division. Company’s executive and senior management is informed on current liquidity risk exposures on a daily basis, ensuring that the Company’s liquidity risk profile stays within approved limits. Moreover, management receives on a daily basis a liquidity report, which presents a detailed analysis of Company’s funding sources and counterbalancing capacity. Among others, for the purpose of proper management of liquidity risk and in line with supervisory requirements, the Company monitors and manages on a monthly basis, the amount, quality and concentration of counterbalancing capacity, the cash flows arising from assets and liabilities (inflows, outflows – maturity ladder) over time, the concentration and cost of funding, the rollover of funding. According to the Liquidity Gap Analysis, the cash flows arising from balance sheet items are calculated and classified into time periods in accordance with the contractual maturity date or the estimated maturity date based on a statistical analysis (convention). Investment portfolios, which may be used to raise liquidity, and they are allocated in the first period under the condition they have not been used to raise liquidity either through the Central Bank or through interbank repos agreement, are an exception to the above. Wholesale funding Medium term borrowing from international capital markets The Company’s constant aspiration is to cooperate with international investors who may offer medium term financing through purchase of securities issued by the Company. For this purpose, the Company retains special financing programs appealing to international investors and provides adequate coverage of credit needs through international capital markets by planning asset level needs on an annual basis. However, the Company acknowledges that the demand of these bonds may not be enough to fully meet the needs in specific time intervals as a result of factors which concern the credit assessment in the domestic and international economic environment.

Awarding of stock options to employees The Group has stock option programs for granting company shares to members of Management and employees of the Company and its affiliated companies. According to the terms of the program, whithin the first year from the date the compensation is granted, beneficiaries may exercise 60% of their total rights, while the remaining amount is vested in equal annual installments over a period of three or four years. Rights that are not exercised expire. Additionally, if a beneficiary ceases to be an employee ot exeutive of the Group (with certain exceptions, such as retirement or incapacity to work), they lose the right to purchase shares.

This template shall include information for loans and advances, debt securities and equity instruments in the banking book, towards financial corporates, non-financial corporates (NFC), including SMEs, households (including residential real estate, house renovation loans and motor vehicle loans only) and local governments/municipalities (house financing). 2. The following accounting categories of financial assets should be considered: Financial assets at amortised cost, financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss and non-trading financial assets mandatorily at fair value through profit or loss, and real estate collaterals obtained by credit institutions by taking possession in exchange of cancellation of debts. 3. Banks with non-EU subsidiary should provide this information separately for exposures towards non-EU counterparties. For non-EU exposures, while there are additional challenges in terms of absence of common disclosure requirements and methodology, as the EU taxonomy and the NFRD apply only at EU level, given the relevance of these exposures for those credit institutions with non-EU subsidiaries, these institutions should disclose a separate GAR for non-EU exposures, on a best effort basis, in the form of estimates and ranges, using proxies, and explaining the assumptions, caveats and limitations 4. For motor vehicle loans, institutions shall only include those exposures generated after the date of application of the disclosure EU TAXONOMY REPORTING FORMS 455 | ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT Template 1 -
