Net profit attributable to the shareholders of mBank in Q4 2022 amounted to PLN 834.5 million compared with net loss of PLN 2 279.2 million in Q3 2022. Gross profit amounted to PLN 1 004.4 million, despite high costs of legal risk related to foreign currency loans.
At the same time gross profit of the core business (defined as mBank Group excluding FX Mortgage Loans segment) amounted to PLN 1 443.1 million compared to a loss noted reported in Q3 2022.
Total income posted by mBank Group increased by 126.5% on the previous quarter to PLN 2 434.0 million. Net of the impact of the "credit holidays" in Q3 and Q4, total income was stable on a quarterly basis.
Net interest income amounted to PLN 1 974.5 million in Q4 2022. Net of the impact of the "credit holidays", net interest income was stable quarter on quarter. In Q4 2022, interest income increased to PLN 3 324.4 million, driven mainly by a series of interest rate hikes by the Monetary Policy Council. Net of the impact of the "credit holidays", interest income increased by 6.5% on a quarterly basis. At the same time interest expense increased, which was attributable mainly to higher costs of client deposits. Net interest margin in mBank Group remained stable on a quarterly basis and in Q4 2022 reached the level of 4.03%. Net fee and commission income decreased by 9.0%, as a result of higher commission expense. In Q4 2022 the costs of sales contests were booked as well as higher costs of due diligence processes for the clients and higher costs of the sale of the Bank's products by external entities. In Q4 2022 the Bank has changed the recognition of revenues from the sale of mortgage-related insurance. Currently the Group recognises part of these revenues within interest income and part within commission income. This change is further described in the section "Comparative data".
Net trading income amounted to PLN 27.1 million. mBank Group also noted a loss from derecognition of financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value through profit or loss at PLN -34.3 million, which was attributable to the sale of bonds. Other operating income net of other operating expenses amounted to PLN -16.6 million.
In Q4 2022 total overhead costs and depreciation in mBank Group decreased by 23.5% to PLN 631.1 million compared with the previous quarter. The contribution to the Borrower Support Fund amounted to PLN 184.1 million in Q3 2022. In Q4 2022, amount of the booked contribution decreased by PLN 13.1 million. Staff-related expenses increased 18.9% in Q4 2022, resulting mainly from growing cost of wages and salaries. Simultaneously, material costs decreased by 6.2%, mainly as a result of lower costs of administration and real estate services, as well as reduced IT costs. Depreciation was slightly reduced on a quarterly basis.
Above mentioned trends resulted in a decline of the cost-to-income ratio to 25.9%. Normalized C/I ratio (excluding impact of "credit holidays" and Borrowers' Support Fund) amounted to 33.5% compared with 31.9% in the previous quarter.
Impairment on and movements in the fair value of loans and advances of mBank Group (being the sum of: impairment or reversal of impairment on financial assets not measured at fair value through profit or loss and gain/loss from non-trading loans and advances mandatorily measured at fair value through profit or loss) amounted to PLN 188.1 million in Q4 2022 (cost of risk was at the level of 61 bps). Compared with the previous quarter it was slightly higher (+2.8%).
Significant negative impact on the operating income of mBank Group had legal risk costs related to foreign currency loans, which amounted to PLN 430.1 million. These costs resulted mainly from the inclusion of costs of final court verdicts, the costs of the settlements and the update of market parameters applied in the model. More information about the calculation of these costs can be found further on in this report. The Bank also recognized a deferred tax asset in the amount of PLN 198.9 million, which results from the settlement program addressed to the CHF loan borrowers.
In recent years, a significant number of individual customers who took mortgage and housing loans in CHF, challenged in court some of the provisions or entire agreements on the basis of which the Bank granted these loans. To date, there is no consistent line of judgments on the assessment of contractual provisions introducing an indexation mechanism and the consequences of establishing their abusiveness (ineffectiveness) issued by the courts in such cases.
The carrying amount of mortgage and housing loans granted to natural persons in CHF as of 31 December 2022 amounted to PLN 6.1 billion (i.e. CHF 1.3 billion) compared to PLN 9.1 billion (i.e. CHF 2.0 billion) as at the end of 2021. Additionally the volume of the portfolio of loans granted in CHF to natural persons that were already fully repaid as of 31 December 2022, taking into account the exchange rate on the date of disbursement of individual loan tranches, amounted to PLN 7.5 billion (31 December 2021: PLN 6.6 billion).
Due to the significance of the legal issues related to the CHF loan portfolio for the financial position of mBank Group as at 31 December 2022, detailed information is presented below regarding these lawsuits, significant judgments, which, in the Bank's opinion, may affect the future ruling on loans indexed to CHF, proposed potential settlements with customers, accounting principles for the recognition of legal risk related to these court cases and the settlement program, as well as information on the impact of legal risk related to these court cases on the balance sheet and profit or loss account of mBank Group and the methodology used to determine this impact.
As of 31 December 2022, 17 849 individual court proceedings (31 December 2021: 13 373 proceedings) were initiated against the Bank by its customers in connection with CHF loan agreements with the total value of claims amounting to PLN 5 982.1 million (31 December 2021: PLN 3 506.5 million).
Out of the individual proceedings, 17 627 proceedings (31 December 2021: 13 036 proceedings) with the total value of claims amounting to PLN 5 977.8 million (31 December 2021: PLN 3 499.9 million) related to indexation clauses in CHF loan agreements and included claims for declaring ineffectiveness or invalidity in part (i.e. to the extent that the agreement contains contractual provisions related to indexation) or in whole of the loan agreements.
As of 31 December 2022 mBank received 1 941 final rulings in individual lawsuits (31 December 2021: 473 final rulings), out of which 97 rulings were favourable to the Bank and 1 844 rulings were unfavourable (31 December 2021: 82 rulings favourable and 391 unfavourable).
At the same time 33 proceedings (as of 31 December 2022) at the second instance courts have remained suspended due to the legal issues referred to the Supreme Court and the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU). The Bank submits cassation appeals to the Supreme Court against legally binding unfavourable for the Bank judgments stating the absolute invalidity of the credit agreement. Unfavourable judgments were based on the same patterns of facts which in the past had resulted in different verdicts. Approximately 84% of unfavourable verdicts led to the invalidation of the loan agreement, others led to the conversion of the agreement into PLN + LIBOR/WIBOR and substitution of FX clause by the fixing rate of the NBP.
The Bank was also sued by the Municipal Consumer Ombudsman representing a group of 390 individuals – retail banking customers who entered into mortgage loan agreements indexed to CHF. This class action concerning indexation clauses was filed in the District Court in Łódź on 4 April 2016.
The lawsuit contains alternative claims for declaring the loan agreements partially invalid, i.e. with respect to the indexation provisions or for declaring the agreements invalid in their entirety or for declaring the indexation provisions of the agreements invalid due to the fact that they allow the loan to be valorised above 20% and below 20% of the CHF exchange rate from mBank S.A. table of exchange rates in effect on the date each of the loan agreements was concluded.
By Order dated 13 March 2018 the Court set the Class at 1 731 persons. On 19 October 2018 the Court issued judgment dismissing all of Plaintiff's claims. In its oral reasoning, the Court argued that the Claimant failed to prove that it has a legal interest in bringing the claim in question and also addressed the issue of the validity of the CHF valorised loan agreements, emphasizing that both the agreements themselves and the indexation clause are in compliance with both applicable laws and the principles of social interaction. On 11 January 2019 the Plaintiff's appeal was delivered to the Bank, to which the Bank filed a response. On 27 February 2020 a hearing was held in the Court of Appeal in Łódź. On 9 March 2020 a judgment was rendered in the case, in which the Court of Appeal returned the case to the District Court for reconsideration. On 9 June 2020 the Court of Appeal, on the motion of the Plaintiff, issued a decision by which it granted security to the Plaintiff's claims by suspending the obligation to pay principal and interest instalments and prohibiting the Bank from making statements calling for payment and terminating the loan agreement.
On 12 January 2022, the hearing was held before the Regional Court in Łódź, and on 9 February 2022 the court issued a verdict dismissing the claim in its entirety. The court held that the valorised loan agreements were valid and that there were no grounds to declare them invalid due to the fact that the foreign currency valorisation mechanism was introduced into them. In the court's view, the agreements can continue to apply even after the clauses concerning the method of repayment of the loan have been eliminated from them. The plaintiff appealed against this verdict, to which the Bank responded. The case is currently pending before the Court of Appeal in Łódź.
As of 31 December 2022 the Bank recognised the impact of legal risk in the class action in the amount of PLN 296.5 million. The details of the methodology and calculation are described further in this note.
On 3 October 2019 the CJEU issued the ruling in the prejudicial mode regarding the mortgage loan linked to the Swiss franc granted by a Polish bank. The submitted prejudicial questions were to determine, among other things, if a generally applicable custom can be used where there is no provision in domestic law that could replace an abusive exchange rate clause. In accordance with CJEU's ruling, the question of abusiveness will be decided by Polish courts. CJEU did not refer to this issue. In addition, CJEU did not make a clear-cut decision regarding the consequences of an exchange rate clause being considered abusive by a domestic court. However, the possibility of a credit agreement being performed further in PLN and with interest calculated according to LIBOR was found doubtful by the Court. If an exchange rate clause is found abusive, a domestic court must decide whether the agreement in question can be performed further or should be declared invalid, taking into account the client's will and the consequences of invalidity for the client. CJEU approved the application of a disposable norm if the invalidity of the agreement would be unfavourable for the client. CJEU rejected the application of general provisions referring to a custom or equity principles.
In October 2020, prejudicial questions were referred to CJEU in two individual cases against mBank. The question referred in first case aims at determining the starting point for the limitation period in the case of consumer claims for undue performance. The question referred in the second case aims at determining whether, in the event of declaring the exchange rate clause abusive, it is possible to apply in its place the provision of the Civil Code referring to the average NBP exchange rate. On 17 March 2022, the parties were heard by the Court of Justice of the European Union. The litigation position was presented by the parties: Poland, the European Commission, Spain and Finland. On 8 September 2022, the CJEU issued a ruling upholding its previous jurisprudence. The Tribunal confirmed once again that the limitation period for the consumer's claims for reimbursement of amounts unduly paid on the basis of an unfair contract term begins to run from the moment when the consumer knows or should have known about the unfairness of the contract term. The Tribunal also reiterated that the application of the supplementary standard is possible only if the cancellation of the contract is unfavourable to the borrower and the borrower agrees to apply this standard. Automatic application (irrespective of the consumer's consent) could only apply to a provision that was introduced by the national legislator in order to eliminate abusiveness, if such a provision would restore the balance of the parties. The Court of Justice has again emphasized that the purpose of Directive 93/13 is not to annul all contracts containing unfair terms.
On 29 April 2021, the CJEU issued a judgment in case C-19/20. According to this judgment, if the unfair (abusive) nature of the contractual provision leads to annulment of the contract, the Court should not annul the contract until the Court informs the consumer in an objective and comprehensive manner about the legal consequences the annulment of such a contract may cause (whether or not the consumer is represented by a legal advisor) and until the Court allows the consumer to express a free and informed consent to the questioned provision and to the continuation of the contract.
By the decision of 12 August 2021, another question was addressed to the CJEU (C-520/21), the subject of which is to determine whether in the event of cancellation of the loan agreement, the parties, in addition to the reimbursement of money paid in the performance of this agreement and statutory interest for delay from the moment of the call for payment, may also claim any other benefits, in particular remuneration, unjust enrichment, compensation, reimbursement or valorisation of the benefit. The hearing before the CJEU took place on 12 October 2022. On 16 February 2023, the opinion of the Advocate General will be presented, and the verdict is expected in the second half of 2023. The ruling issued in this case will be of significant importance for the shaping of the jurisprudence in matters of foreign currency indexed loans. It will also be reflected in the parameters of the provisioning model, such as the distribution of expected court rulings or scenarios, determining the behaviour of borrowers towards accepting settlements or filing lawsuits.
On 18 November 2021, the Court of Justice of the EU delivered its judgment in Case C-212/20, in which it assessed that in accordance with the provisions of Directive 93/13, the content of a so-called spreads clause must enable (on the basis of clear and comprehensible criteria) a reasonably well-informed, reasonably observant and rational consumer to understand how the exchange rate is to be determined, in such a way that the consumer is able to determine the rate applied by the trader himself at any time. Moreover CJEU made an assessment that the provisions of Directive 93/13 preclude the interpretation of an illicit contract term in order to mitigate its unfairness.
In January 2022, further questions for a preliminary ruling were submitted to the CJEU in three cases pending against mBank. The question in the first case is aimed at determining whether, if there are grounds both for determining the absolute invalidity of the contract and for declaring the contract invalid (ineffective) due to the abusive clauses contained therein, the court should determine absolute nullity or a decision on the choice of sanctions belongs to the consumer. The questions in the second case concern the consequences of entering abusive clauses in the register, the possibility of repaying the loan from the beginning in a foreign currency and informing the consumer who is knowledgeable about the exchange rate risk. In the third case, the questions relate to the remuneration for the use of capital and the effects of the consumer's declaration regarding the lack of consent to uphold the abusive provision in relation to the ineffectiveness of the contract, the commencement of the limitation period for the bank's claims and statutory interest. The question remains partly consistent with the preliminary question of another bank before the CJEU in case C-520/21. The Bank presents a position consistent with the previous positions of the FSA and the NBP in favour of the legitimacy of formulating such claims. The CJEU only acted on the second and third cases, in which the Bank submitted its statements on 15 August 2022.
On 29 January 2021 the motion for adopting a resolution has been submitted to the Supreme Court by the First President of the Supreme Court. The full bench of the Civil Chamber of the Supreme Court was to answer to the questions if abusive provisions can be replaced with provisions of civil law or common practice, whether it is possible to maintain indexed/denominated loan as a PLN loan with an interest rate based on LIBOR, whether the theory of balance or the theory of two conditionalities will apply in the event of the CHF loan invalidity, the starting point of the limitation period in the case of the bank's claim for reimbursement of the amounts paid under the loan and whether banks and consumers can receive a remuneration for the use of their funds by the other party. The lack of a jurisprudence line, both domestic and of the CJEU, concerning remuneration for the use of capital is also significant for the shape of the provision. The position presented by banks has been strengthened by the opinions of the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (PFSA) and the National Bank of Poland (NBP) submitted to case no. III CZP 25/22 (III CZP 11/21), which support granting banks the right to such remuneration. Thus, the banks' claims in this respect should be regarded as at least plausible.
There was one non-public sitting in this case, during which the Supreme Court decided to request the Ombudsman, Financial Ombudsman, Children's Ombudsman, NBP and the Polish Financial Supervision Authority to take a position. The positions of these bodies have been submitted.
At a closed session on 2 September 2021, the Supreme Court, pursuant to Article 267 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, decided to refer to the Court of Justice of the European Union with three questions for a preliminary ruling on the issue of appointing judges in the Republic of Poland. The verdict on the questions asked by the First President of the Supreme Court was not issued.
The resolution of the Supreme Court of 16 February 2021 in case III CZP 11/20 endorsed the theory of two conditionalities if a credit agreement is declared to be invalid. The Supreme Court in written justification found that the risk of insolvency of either of the unduly enriched parties is largely mitigated by the right of retention of received benefits until the other party offers to repay received benefits or secures the claims for repayment.
On 7 May 2021 (III CZP 6/21), a resolution of 7 of the Supreme Court's judges which have the force of a legal principle was issued, in which it was decided that:
In the written justification, the Supreme Court confirmed its earlier positions as to the application of the theory of two conditionalities and the issue of calculating the limitation period for the bank's claims in the event that the contract cannot be upheld after the abusive provisions have been eliminated. The Supreme Court explained that due to the possibility granted to the consumer to make a binding decision regarding the sanctioning of the prohibited clause and to accept the consequences of the total invalidity of the contract, it should be recognised that, as a rule, the limitation period for these claims may start running only after the consumer has made a binding decision in this regard. Only then, in the opinion of the Supreme Court, can it be concluded that the lack of a legal basis for the benefit has become definitive (as in the case of condictio causa finita), and the parties could effectively demand the return of the undue benefit. This means, in particular, that the consumer cannot assume that the bank's claim has expired within the time limit calculated as if the call to return the loan was possible already on the day it was made available. In justifying the resolution, the Supreme Court also confirmed that in order to avoid risks related to the borrower's insolvency, the bank may use the right of retention provided in Art. 497 in connection with Art. 496 of the Civil Code, thus protecting its claim for the return of used principal, since the obligation to return it is – in relation to the obligation to put the funds at the disposal of the borrower – something more than a consideration obligation.
On 6 July 2021, the Civil Chamber of the Supreme Court refused to pass a resolution on Swiss franc indexed loans. The Supreme Court indicated that the question of whether the balance theory or the two conditionalities theory should be applied has already been resolved in the jurisprudence of the Supreme Court, including the resolution of 7 judges of 7 May 2021 (III CZP 6/21), and earlier in the resolution of 16 February 2021 (III CZP 11/20).
On 29 July 2021 the Supreme Court composed of 3 judges presented the legal issue to be resolved by a panel of 7 judges of the Supreme Court, which came down to the answer to the question whether, in the event of a loan agreement being declared invalid, a loan granted in Polish currency, indexed to a foreign currency, repaid by borrowers, the amount of possible enrichment of the lender should be calculated taking into account only the nominal amount of loan instalments, or the interest rate on instalments according to the reference rate appropriate for loans indexed to a foreign currency or appropriate for loans in PLN should be taken into account. The deadline for examining the issue, initially set for 8 November 2021, was removed from the case list, and the judge-rapporteur was also changed.
On 28 April 2022 the Supreme Court issued a resolution (III CZP 40/22) in which it indicated that in disputes with consumers, the provision of Article 385(1) of the Civil Code constitutes lex specialis in relation to Article 353(1) of the Civil Code. Consequently, when there are prerequisites for the application of both legal norms, the court should apply the sanction of ineffectiveness of the contractual clauses, without declaring it invalid on general principles.
The general assumptions of the PFSA's Chairman proposal to convert FX loans to PLN have been announced in December 2020. The PFSA's Chairman proposal assumes that foreign currency indexed/denominated loan (CHF/EUR/USD) would be converted as if it was from beginning a PLN loan with an interest rate of WIBOR 3M increased by a margin used historically for such loans.
The Bank analysed the costs it would have to incur in the indicated scenario, as the sum of the differences between the current balances of foreign currency indexed/denominated loan (CHF/EUR/USD) and the corresponding hypothetical loan balances in PLN based on the WIBOR 3M rate increased by the loan margin in PLN granted at the same time and for the same period as the loan indexed to/denominated in foreign currencies (CHF/EUR/USD).
Hypothetical PLN loan balances include in their schedule differences from the actual repayments of foreign currency indexed/denominated loan (CHF/EUR/USD) by adjusting the value of the outstanding principal according to the scheme provided by the PFSA.
The estimated potential impact of implementation of the conversion plan on mBank, calculated as of 31 December 2022, would amount to PLN 5.4 billion if only active portfolio indexed/denominated to CHF was converted (unaudited data). Detailed assumptions for the estimation of this impact were adopted on the basis of the Polish Financial Supervision Authority's survey dated 27 January 2021. The PFSA's Chairman proposal assumes that only active portfolio would be converted.
On 26 September 2022, the Bank decided to launch the settlement program for borrowers who have active CHF indexed loan including borrowers currently in court dispute with the Bank.
The presented offer is based on two basic assumptions: (i) elimination of the CHF/PLN FX risk incurred by the client and (ii) limitation of the interest rate risk. The settlement proposal consists in conversion of the CHF indexed loan into a PLN loan with simultaneous write-off of a portion of the loan balance. The writeoff level will be individually negotiated with customers. The Bank will also reimburse low contribution insurance premiums by redeeming capital equal to the sum of premiums collected from the customer.
After conversion, the customer will be able to decide which interest rate he chooses: temporarily fixed or variable. The Bank offers a preferential interest rate on the loan after conversion to the clients that will sign the settlement. By deciding to sign a settlement with the Bank, the client will benefit from a reduction in the outstanding loan balance, eliminate the currency risk and, due to the offered preferential interest rate and the possibility to choose a temporarily fixed interest rate, will minimize the interest rate risk. Settlements will be signed in an out-of-court mode, although, the Bank will allow to any customer who wishes to do so to sign a settlement at an arbitration court.
As of 31 December 2022 the Bank concluded 1 886 settlements (as of 31 December 2021: 33 settlements).
The Group recognises the impact of the legal risk related to court cases concerning indexation clauses in mortgage and housing loans in CHF and settlements offered to CHF borrowers as reflected under:
Mortgage and housing loans to customers that are subject to court proceedings are within the scope of IFRS 9. Under IFRS 9, these loans are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate.
Legal claims filed by borrowers, including invalidity claims, impact the Bank's estimate of the expected life of the loan and the expected cash flows. In particular, the Bank takes into account the risk that the remaining life of the loan may be shorter than the contractual term, or the Bank may not receive some of the contractual cash flows, and in case of invalidity verdict, the Bank may have to reimburse the borrowers for undue benefits received. In addition, any settlements offered by the Bank to borrowers (including those who have not previously made legal claims), may also affect the amount and timing of expected cash flows from these loans.
Therefore the Bank believes that the appropriate way to recognise the impact of legal risk with respect to active loans and the expected impact of the settlement program offered to borrowers is to revise the cash flow estimates associated with the loans and reduce the gross carrying amount of the loans in accordance with IFRS 9 paragraph B5.4.6.
In relation to repaid loans and loans for which the estimated adjustment in cash flows is higher than the carrying amount, the Bank recognises provisions for legal proceedings in accordance with IAS 37 "Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets".
According to IAS 37 the amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of reporting period. The best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation is the amount that the Bank would rationally pay to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period or to transfer it to a third party at that time. This amount is discounted at the balance sheet date.
For repaid loans, there is no asset that could be adjusted, therefore any potential liability arising from the legal risks has to be accounted for under IAS 37. As the provisions being measured in case of repaid loans involves a large population of items, the Bank applies "expected value" method in which the obligation is estimated by weighting all possible outcomes by their associated probabilities.
The above estimates are determined by the judgement of the Bank, supplemented by experience of similar events and opinions of independent experts. The evidence considered includes any additional evidence provided by events after the end of the reporting period.
The details of the methodology and calculation are described further in this note.
The methodology used to calculate the impact of the legal risk related to court cases concerning indexation clauses in mortgage and housing loans in CHF and the settlement program is based on historical observations and due to the lack of market data and lack of clear jurisprudence, partially on expert assumption that are highly judgmental and with a high range of possible values. It is possible that the impact of the legal risk will need to be adjusted significantly in the future, particularly that important parameters used in calculations are significantly interdependent.
The cumulative impact of legal risk associated with litigation (individual lawsuits and class actions) related to indexation clauses in CHF mortgages and housing loans and the settlement program included in the Group's statement of financial position is shown in the table below.

Total costs of legal risk related to foreign currency loans recognised in the income statement for the 2022 amounted to PLN 3 112.3 million (in 2021: PLN 2 758.1 million). The most significant factors of these costs in 2022 was the increase of the impact of the legal risk related to individual court cases, which mainly resulted from the change in the distribution of expected court rulings scenarios due to the adoption of historical observations in the model, an increase in the forecasted population of borrowers who will file a lawsuit against the Bank and an increase in the cost of the settlement program as a result of the Bank's decision to launch the settlement program in September 2022.
The methodology of calculating the impact of the legal risk related to individual court cases concerning both active and repaid loans applied by the Bank depends on numerous assumptions that take into account historical data adjusted with the Bank's expectations regarding the future. The most important assumptions are: an expected population of borrowers who will file a lawsuit against the Bank, the distribution of expected verdicts judged by the courts and the loss to be incurred by the Bank in case of losing the case in court and the level of settlement acceptance.
The population of borrowers who will file a lawsuit against the Bank has been projected with the use of statistical methods over the remaining life of the portfolio based on the Bank's history of legal cases and assumes a further inflow of new cases. The Bank assumes that the inflow of plaintiffs will be significant until the end of 2026. The Bank assumes that vast majority of the projected cases will be filed until the end of 2024, and then their number will decrease following the expected unification of the jurisprudential line.
For the purpose of calculating the impact of legal risk mBank assumes that approximately 38% of CHF borrowers i.e. 31 thousand borrowers, including 27 thousand borrowers with active loans (representing approximately 61% of borrowers with active loans) and 4 thousand borrowers with repaid loans (representing approximately 11% of borrowers with repaid loans) filed or with intention to file a lawsuit against the Bank (as of 31 December 2021: 27%, i.e. 23 thousand borrowers). Moreover, the Bank assumed that some portion of borrowers will sign settlements. The assumption, due to significant legal uncertainties surrounding CHF cases as well as other external factors that may shape clients' preferences to file the lawsuits, is highly judgmental and may be a subject to an adjustment in future. If an additional 1% of the borrowers (both holding active loans in CHF as well as borrowers who already repaid their loans in CHF) filed a lawsuit against the Bank, the impact of the legal risk would increase by approximately PLN 63.8 million (while other relevant assumptions remain constant) as compared to 31 December 2022, of which PLN 55.7 million would reduce gross carrying amount of the loans, and PLN 8.1 million would increase the provisions for legal proceedings.
The Bank estimates that part of borrowers with CHF indexed loans will not decide to sue the Bank or sign a settlement with the Bank in the future. In the Bank's opinion this will be influenced by the following factors: clients' expectations regarding future changes in the CHF/PLN exchange rate, clients' expectations regarding future costs of PLN loans, changes in jurisprudence in CHF loan cases, tax solutions regarding settlements, costs and duration of court proceedings, individual factors (in particular the loan repayment period and the current amount of debt). This is not a direct estimate, but the result of the difference between the estimate of the population of clients already in dispute with the Bank or intending to do so and the estimate of the population of clients who decide to settle and the number of clients with an active CHF credit agreement.
The expected distribution of court rulings was based on final judgments issued in cases against the Bank starting from 2020. As currently there is still no homogenous line of verdicts taken by the courts the Bank took into account three possible scenarios for termination of court proceedings: (i) the contract remains valid but the indexation mechanism is eliminated, which transforms a loan indexed to CHF into a PLN loan subject to the interest rate for a loan indexed to CHF, (ii) the contract is invalid in its entirety, as removing the exchange rate clause would be too far-reaching change (assuming that the clause specifies the main subject of the contract) and (iii) dismissal of the claim. In scenario (ii), the Bank takes into account two versions of the cancellation, assuming that the parties settle in a formula similar to the settlement on a net basis. The first version assumes that the consumer is obliged to return the paid-up capital together with the remuneration for using it, and the second assumes that the consumer is obliged to return the capital without remuneration. The Bank assumed the probability of return on capital with remuneration at the level of 70%. If the assumed probability of return on capital with remuneration changed by +/- 1 percentage point and all other relevant assumptions remained constant, the impact of the legal risk would change by +/- PLN 18.2 million, of which PLN 16.3 million would change the gross carrying amount of loans, and PLN 1.9 million provisions for legal proceedings.
Each of these scenarios is associated with a different level of predicted loses for the Bank. As of 31 December 2022 the Bank assumed probability of unfavourable scenario at the level of 95% (as of 31 December 2021: 50%). If the assumed probability of unfavourable scenario changed by +/- 1 percentage point and all other relevant assumptions remained constant, the impact of the legal risk would change by +/- PLN 51.8 million, of which PLN 46.6 million would change the gross carrying amount of loans, and PLN 5.2 million provisions for legal proceedings.
As there is currently no sufficiently reliable and complete data in the market that would allow the Bank to make clear estimates of the levels of acceptance of settlements in CHF cases, the Bank assumed the probability of accepting the settlements partially based on the available market data, the results of the completed pilot of the settlement program concluded by the Bank in 2021 and 2022 and based on its own forecasts.
As at 31 December 2022, the Bank assumed 32% probability of settlements acceptance for the entire active portfolio (34% as at 31 December 2021).
In the event of a change in the probability of accepting settlements by +/- 1 percentage point, with the remaining significant assumptions unchanged, the total amount of the impact of legal risk would change by +/- PLN 12.1 million which would change the gross carrying amount of loans.
In order to calculate the legal risk costs related to a class action, the methodology described above for calculating the impact of the legal risk related to individual cases was used and it was applied to the whole population covered by the class action. The distribution of expected court rulings used is the same as for individual cases.

The balance sheet total of mBank Group stood at PLN 209 892.1 million at the end of 2022 and increased by 2.0% compared with the end of September 2022.
The largest asset category at the end of 2022 comprised the loans and advances to customers. As at the end of 2022 net loans and advances stood at PLN 120 183.1 million (down by PLN 5 106.3 million or -4.1% quarter on quarter).
Gross loans and advanced to corporate clients fell to PLN 52 207.5 million, i.e. by -5.7% compared with Q3 2022 (excluding reverse repo/buy sell back transactions and the FX effect, the drop accounted for - 2.2%). The volume of loans to retail clients declined by 2.8% compared with the end of Q3 2022 and amounted to PLN 71 122.2 million.
Investment securities were the second largest asset category at the end of 2022, amounting to PLN 54 350.8 million, up 35.9% quarter on quarter. The growth is associated with i.e. increase of the portfolio of money bills and reduction of balances held in cash and on interbank deposits.
In Q4 2022, amounts due to clients, which are the mBank Group's principal source of funding, increased by PLN 3 878.2 million (2.3%) quarter on quarter.
Retail deposits stood at PLN 122 890.0 million at the end of 2022, up by 3.7% on quarter to quarter. The volume of term deposits increased by PLN 5 370.8 million or 24.8% quarter on quarter. The increase was attributable to mBank's attractive offer. Clients' deposits in current and saving accounts declined slightly by PLN 1 031.4 million (-1.1%)
Amounts due to corporate clients stood at PLN 49 980.6 million at the end of Q4 2022, which represents a quarter-on-quarter drop by 2.1%. The amount was affected the most by the decline of deposits in current accounts by PLN 2 618.3 million (-6.5%) with a simultaneous increase of term deposits by PLN 1 996.9 million (+21.9%).
Share of equity in total liabilities and equity of mBank Group accounted for 6.1% at the end of 2022.
The level of capital ratios reported by the mBank Group increased in Q4 2022 due to the increase in the own funds, mainly as a result of a lower annual loss of the Group. The positive impact on the level of capital ratios was incurred by the synthetic securitisation transaction referencing a portfolio of loans. The transaction was performed in December 2022 in a total amount of PLN 3.7 billion.
As of 31 December 2022 mBank Group included transitional provisions regarding the temporary treatment of unrealised gains and losses measured at fair value through other comprehensive income in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, contained in the regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council (EU) 2020/873 of 24 June 2020 amending Regulations (EU) No 575/2013 and (EU) 2019/876 as regards certain adjustments in response to the COVID-19 pandemic ("transitional provisions") in the calculation of own funds and capital ratios.

■ Reclassification of a portion of revenue from the sale of insurance linked to credit products
The Group has changed the recognition of revenue from the sale of mortgage-related insurance. Previously, the Group recognized the remuneration received monthly for insurance sales entirely as commission income. Beginning with the 2022 financial statements, the Group recognises the portion of the remuneration corresponding to the intermediary service as commission income. The remaining part of the remuneration is recognised now as interest income.
■ Separation of the item Lease liabilities
In the consolidated statement of financial position, within the item Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost, the Group has separated a new item - Lease liabilities. Previously, lease liabilities were presented within the item Liabilities to customers.
■ Reclassification of loans and advances received from the European Investment Bank
The Group has changed the presentation of liabilities from loans and advances received from the European Investment Bank and now presents them under Financial liabilities at amortised cost - Amounts due to banks. Previously, the Group presented these liabilities within Financial liabilities at amortised cost - Due to customers.
■ Reclassification of provisions for post-employment benefits
The Group has changed the presentation of provisions for post-employment benefits and now presents them within Provisions. Previously, the Group presented these liabilities within the item Other Liabilities.
■ Reclassification of receivables from the settlement of cash deposit machines and cash sorting companies
The Group has changed the presentation of receivables from the settlement of deposit machines and sorting plants and now presents them within Other assets. Previously, the Group presented these settlements under Financial assets measured at amortised cost - Loans and advances to customers.
■ Presentation of the change in fair value of hedged items in portfolio hedging against interest rate risk
The Group has changed the presentation of gains and losses on the hedged item for the fair value hedge of the interest rate exposure of a portion of portfolio of financial assets or financial liabilities and since the end of 2022 the Group presents them in a single separate line item within assets, for those repricing time periods for which the hedged item is an asset or in a single separate line item within liabilities, for those repricing time periods for which the hedged item is a liability. Previously, changes in the fair value of hedged items in the interest rate hedge portfolio were presented in a separate line item on the asset or liability side depending on the sign of the balance, i.e. gains related to hedging the portfolio of assets or losses related to hedging the portfolio of liabilities were reported as a separate title in the asset line item, while losses related to hedging the portfolio of assets or gains related to hedging the portfolio of liabilities were reported as a separate title in the liability line item.
The above changes were due to the adjustment of the presentation of selected assets and liabilities to the prevailing market practice. The changes did not affect equity levels and the Group's net result in the comparative periods presented in these financial statements. Comparative figures as of 1 January 2021 and 31 December 2021 and for the period from 1 January to 31 December 2021 have been restated accordingly.
