2. Description of relevant accounting policies

Accounting basis

The condensed consolidated financial statements of mBank S.A. Group have been prepared for the 6-month period ended 30 June 2022. Comparative data include the period from 1 January 2021 to 30 June 2021 for the condensed consolidated income statement, condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows and condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity, additionally for the period from 1 January to 31 December 2021 for the condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity, and in the case of the condensed consolidated statement of financial position, data as at 31 December 2021.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements the first half of 2022 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated financial statements of mBank S.A. Group for 2021 published on 3 March 2022. They do not include all of the information required for a complete set of financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS Standards. However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the Group's financial position and performance since the last annual financial statements.

In addition, selected explanatory information provide additional information in accordance with Decree of the Minister of Finance dated 29 March 2018 concerning the publication of current and periodic information by issuers of securities and the conditions of acceptance as equal information required by the law of other state, which is not a member state (Journal of Laws 2018, item 757).

Detailed accounting principles applied to the preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements of mBank S.A. Group for 2021, published on 3 March 2022.

The preparation of the financial statements requires the application of specific accounting estimates. It also requires the Management Board to use its own judgment when applying the accounting policies adopted by the Group. The issues in relation to which a significant professional judgement is required, more complex issues, or such issues where estimates or judgments are material to the consolidated financial statements are disclosed in Note 3.

Financial statements are prepared in compliance with materiality principle. Material omissions or misstatements of positions of financial statements are material if they could, individually or collectively, influence the economic decisions that users make on the basis of Group's financial statements. Materiality depends on the size and nature of the omission or misstatement of the position of financial statements or a combination of both. The Group presents separately each material class of similar positions. The Group presents separately positions of dissimilar nature or function unless they are immaterial.

These condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared under the assumption that all the entities of the Group continue as a going concern in the foreseeable future, i.e. in the period of at least 12 months following the reporting date. As of the date of approving these statements, the Bank Management Board has not identified any events that could indicate that the continuation of the operations by the Group is endangered in the period of 12 months from the reporting date.

3. Major estimates and judgments made in connection with the application of accounting policy principles

The Group applies estimates and adopts assumptions which impact the values of assets and liabilities presented in the subsequent period. Estimates and assumptions, which are continuously subject to assessment, rely on historical experience and other factors, including expectations concerning future events, which seem justified under the given circumstances.

Provisions for legal risks relating to indexation clauses in mortgage and housing loans in CHF

Detailed information on the impact of legal risk related to CHF mortgage and housing loans is provided in Note 30.

Impairment of loans and advances

The Group reviews its loan portfolio in terms of possible impairments at least once per quarter. In order to determine whether any impairment loss should be recognised in the income statement, the Group assesses whether any evidence exists that would indicate some measurable reduction of estimated future cash flows attached to the loan portfolio. The methodology and the assumptions, on the basis of which the estimated cash flow amounts and their anticipated timing are determined, are regularly verified. If the current value of estimated cash flows (discounted recoveries from payments of capital, discounted recoveries from interests, discounted recoveries from off-balance sheet liabilities and discounted recoveries from collaterals for on-balance and off-balance sheet loans and advances, weighed by the probability of realization of specific scenarios) for portfolio of loans and advances and for off-balance sheet liabilities which are impaired as of 30 June 2022, change by +/- 10%, the estimated loans and advances and off-balance sheet liabilities impairment would either decrease by PLN 59.6 million or increase by PLN 67.1 million (as at 31 December 2021: PLN 61.6 million and PLN 71.2 million). This estimation was performed for portfolio of loans and advances and for off-balance sheet liabilities individually assessed for impairment on the basis of future cash flows due to repayments and recovery from collateral – Stage 3. The rules of determining write-downs and provisions for impairment of credit exposures have been described under Note 3.3.6 of Consolidated financial statements of mBank Group S.A. for 2021, published on 3 March 2022.

Actions taken in relation to the current situation in Ukraine

In the first half of 2022, the Group conducted a portfolio review in connection with Russia's aggression against Ukraine. The review concerned the Group's involvement in war countries (Ukraine, Russia) or in conflict-related countries (Belarus), taking into account sanctions imposed by the European Union, the United Kingdom and the USA.

Additional cost of risk due to the current situation in Ukraine

Due to the changes in the economic situation in the country resulting from the Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the Group in the first half of 2022 worked on an update of the forecasts of future macroeconomic conditions that are incorporated into the risk parameter models used to calculate the expected credit loss. The update was preceded in the first quarter of 2022 by the assignment of a weight of 100% for the pessimistic scenario in the expected credit loss model. The detailed description of the above-mentioned modifications can be found below.

Impact of the macroeconomic environment forecast on the expected credit loss values

In the second quarter of 2022, the Group worked on updating the forecasts of future macroeconomic conditions that are incorporated into the risk parameter models used to calculate the expected credit loss. The forecasts take into account the current development of the economic situation in the country resulting from the Russia's invasion of Ukraine and they are consistent with the forecasts used by the Group in the planning process.

In order to assess expected credit loss (ECL) sensitivity to the future macroeconomic conditions, the Group determined the ECL value separately for each of the scenarios used for the purposes of calculating the expected credit risk losses. The impact of each of the scenarios is presented in the table in the next chapters of the document.

The table below presents forecasts of the main macroeconomic indicators included in the risk parameter models which are used to calculate the expected credit loss.

* Due to the requirements of Recommendation R, starting in the second quarter of 2022, the scope of the analysis was expanded to include a breakdown of performance by stage.

The above results were estimated taking into account the equal allocation to the stage 2 based on the weighted average of all 3 macroeconomic scenarios, without an assumption of additional potential migrations between stages. The ECL sensitivity analysis was performed for 89% of the assets of the portfolio of loans and advances to customers (excluding the impaired exposures and the exposures not valued with the use of models).

For the specialised lending portfolio there was provided a recalibration of long-term default probability and long-term loss models used for the calculation of expected credit losses and there was provided an update of macroeconomic forecasts, preceded in the first quarter of 2022 by the assignment of a weight of 100% for the pessimistic scenario in the expected credit loss model. The total impact on the level of expected credit loss of all changes for the specialised lending portfolio in the first half of 2022 was a release of provisions in the amount of PLN 6.4 million (positive impact on the result).

For the remaining loan portfolio, in the first half of 2022, there was performed an analysis of an update of macroeconomic forecasts, preceded in the first quarter of 2022 by the assignment of a weight of 100% for the pessimistic scenario in the expected credit loss model. The impact of these changes on the level of expected credit loss, for the loan portfolio not including specialised lending, was recognised as a creation of provisions in the amount of PLN 55.2 million (negative impact on the result) in the first half of 2022. Additionally, the impact on the fair value valuation of the non-mortgage portfolio amounted to PLN 1.8 million in the first half of 2022 (negative impact on the result).

Fair value of derivatives and other financial instruments

The fair value of financial instruments not listed on active markets is determined by applying valuation techniques. All models are approved prior to being applied and they are also calibrated in order to assure that the obtained results indeed reflect the actual data and comparable market prices. As far as possible, observable market data originating from an active market are used in the models. Methods for determining the fair value of financial instruments are described in Note 2.7. of Consolidated financial statements of mBank Group for 2021, published on 3 March 2022.

Deferred tax assets

Deferred tax assets are recognised in respect of tax losses to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available, against which the losses can be utilised. Judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and level of future taxable profits.

Income tax in interim financial statements

Income tax in interim financial statements is accrued in accordance with IAS 34. Interim period tax expense is accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual earnings, that is, the estimated average annual effective income tax rate applied to the pre-tax income of the interim period.

The calculation of the average annual effective income tax rate requires the use of a pre-tax income forecast for the entire fiscal year and permanent differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax base. The projected annual effective tax rate used to calculate the income tax expense during the first half of 2022 was 43.4% (in the first half of 2021: 42.7%). The main impact on the increase in the average annual effective tax rate in comparison to nominal income tax rate in the first half of 2022 was the projected impact of the so-called "credit holidays" on the mBank Group's gross profit in the second half of 2022.

Revenue and expenses from sale of insurance products bundled with loans

Revenue from sale of insurance products bundled with loans are split into interest income and fee and commission income based on the relative fair value analysis of each of these products.

The remuneration included in fee and commission income is recognised partly as upfront income and partly including deferring over time based on the analysis of the stage of completion of the service.

Currently the Group recognises upfront less than 8% of bancassurance income associated with cash and car loans and 0% to approximately 20% of bancassurance income associated with mortgage loans. Recognition of the remaining part of the income is spread over the economic life of associated loans. Expenses directly linked to the sale of insurance products are recognised using the same pattern.

Liabilities due to post-employment employee benefits

The costs of post-employment employee benefits are determined using an actuarial valuation method. The actuarial valuation involves making assumptions about discount rates, future salary increases, mortality rates and other factors. Due to the long–term nature of these programmes, such estimates are subject to significant uncertainty.

Leasing classification

The Group as lessor makes judgement classifying lease agreements as finance lease or operating lease based on the economic substance of the transaction basing on professional judgment whether substantially all the risk and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset were transferred or not.

The Group as a lessee makes certain estimates and calculations that have an impact on the valuation of lease liabilities and right-of-use assets. They include, among others: determination of the duration of contracts, determining the interest rate used to discount future cash flows and determination of the depreciation rate of right-of-use assets.

4. Business segments

Following the adoption of "management approach" of IFRS 8, operating segments are reported in accordance with the internal reporting provided to the Bank's Management Board (the chief operating decision-maker), which is responsible for allocating resources to the reportable segments and assesses their performance.

The classification by business segments is based on client groups and product groups defined by homogenous transaction characteristics. The classification is consistent with sales management and the philosophy of delivering complex products to the Bank's clients, including both standard banking products and more sophisticated investment products. The method of presentation of financial results coupled with the business management model ensures a constant focus on creating added value in relations with clients of the Bank and Group companies and should be seen as a primary division, which serves the purpose both managing and perceiving business within the Group.

The Group conducts its business through different business segments, which offer specific products and services targeted at specific client groups and market segments. The Group currently conducts its operations through the following business segments:

■ The Retail Banking segment, which offers a full range of products and services to individual customers, including Private Banking customers and micro-businesses. The key products and services offered to customers in this segment include lending products (mortgage loans, overdrafts, cash loans, car loans, credit cards), deposit products (current and savings accounts, term deposits), debit cards, insurance products, brokerage services, investment advice, asset management services and leasing services. The results of the Retail Banking segment include the results of foreign branches of mBank in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. The Retail Banking segment also includes the results of mFinanse S.A.,

mFinanse CZ s.r.o., mFinanse SK s.r.o., LeaseLink Sp. z o.o. and mElements S.A., as well as the results of retail segments of mLeasing Sp. z o.o., Asekum Sp. z o.o. and mBank Hipoteczny S.A.

  • The Corporate and Investment Banking segment, which offers financial services to small, medium and large-sized companies, public sector entities, financial institutions and banks. The key products offered to these customers include transactional banking (cash management, current accounts, term deposits, internet banking, trade finance services, letters of credit and guarantees), working capital and investment loans, project finance, structured and mezzanine finance services as well as custody, leasing and factoring services. The products of this segment include operations in foreign currencies, capital and derivatives markets, both proprietary and on behalf of customers, as well as services for arranging and financing securities issues, financial consulting and brokerage services for financial institutions. The Corporate and Investment Banking segment also generates result of foreign exchange risk management. This segment includes the results of the following subsidiaries: mFaktoring S.A., G-Invest Sp. z o.o. before its deconsolidation, Tele-Tech Investment Sp. z o.o. before its deconsolidation as well as the results of corporate segments of mLeasing Sp. z o. o., Asekum Sp. z o.o. and mBank Hipoteczny S.A.
  • The Treasury and Other segment consists primarily of treasury and money markets operations, liquidity and interest rate risks management of the Bank and its investment portfolio. The results of the segment include result of internal settlements of fund transfer pricing, result of items classified as hedge accounting and results not allocated to other segments. This segment also includes the results of mLeasing Sp. z o.o and mBank Hipoteczny S.A. with regard to activities concerning funding and results of Future Tech Fundusz Inwestycyjny Zamknięty.
  • FX Mortgage Loans segment consists primarily of foreign currency mortgage loans with indexation clauses granted to individual customers. These types of loans are no longer offered to customers. The segment's assets include only the portfolio of active mortgage loans originally granted in foreign currencies (mainly in CHF, EUR and USD). The segment's liabilities do not include the financing of the portfolio of such loans, which was included in the liabilities of other segments.

The principles of segment classification of the Group's activities are described below.

Transactions between the business segments are conducted on regular commercial terms.

Internal fund transfers between the Bank's units are calculated at transfer rates based on market rates. Transfer rates are determined on the same basis for all operating units of the Bank and their differentiation results only from currency and maturity structure of assets and liabilities. Internal settlements concerning internal valuation of funds transfers are reflected in the results of each segment.

The separation of the assets and liabilities of a segment, as well as of its income and costs, is done on the basis of internal information prepared at the Bank for the purpose of management accounting. Assets and liabilities for which the units of the given segment are responsible as well as income and costs related to such assets and liabilities are attributed to individual business segments. The financial result of a business segment takes into account all the income and cost items attributable to it.

The business operations of particular companies of the Group are fully attributed to the appropriate business segments (including consolidation adjustments).

The primary basis used by the Group in the segment reporting is business line division. In addition, the Group's activity is presented by geographical areas reporting broken down into Poland and foreign countries because of the place of origin of income and expenses. Foreign countries segment includes activity of mBank's foreign branches in Czech Republic and Slovakia as well as the activity of subsidiaries mFinanse CZ s.r.o. and mFinanse SK s.r.o.

Due to the allocation of part of costs related to fees to BFG to FX Mortgage Loans segment from the beginning of 2022, the comparative figures for the first half of 2021 have been revised appropriately.

Total overhead costs (1 626 623) (1 020 660)

In the first half of 2022, the Bank, together with other commercial banks, became a participant in the protection scheme referred to in Article 4.1.9a of the Banking Law Act of 29 August 1997 (Banking Law). Accordingly, the Bank credited the aid fund with a contribution of PLN 390 834 thousand, which was charged to overheads costs.

In addition, the obligation to pay the contributions due for 2022 to the mandatory deposit guarantee scheme paid by banks and branches of foreign banks was suspended until 31 October 2022. Consequently, the Bank Guarantee Fund has not determined the amount of contributions to the mandatory deposit guarantee scheme paid by banks and branches of foreign banks due for the second quarter of 2022. Determination and payment of contributions due for the second and third quarter of 2022 will take place in the fourth quarter of 2022. The Bank expects that given, among other things, the amount of funds collected by the protection system, these contributions will not be required. Accordingly, the Bank has not recognised the cost of these contributions in profit or loss in the second quarter of 2022.

Derivative financial instruments

The Group has the following types of derivative instruments:

Forward currency transactions represent commitments to purchase foreign and local currencies, including outstanding spot transactions.

Futures for currencies and interest rates are contractual commitments to receive or pay a specific net value, depending on currency rate of exchange or interest rate variations, or to buy or sell a foreign currency or a financial instrument on a specified future date for a fixed price established on the organised financial market. Because futures contracts are collateralised with fair-valued cash or securities and the changes of the face value of such contracts are accounted for daily in reference to stock exchange quotations, the credit risk is marginal.

FRA contracts are similar to futures except that each FRA is negotiated individually and each requires payment on a specific future date of the difference between the interest rate set in the agreement and the current market rate on the basis of theoretical amount of capital.

Currency and interest rate swap contracts are commitments to exchange one cash flow for another. Such a transaction results in swap of currencies or interest rates (e.g. fixed to variable interest rate) or combination of all these factors (e.g. cross-currency interest rate swaps – CIRS). Except from CIRS there is no exchange of principal at the origin and maturity of the transaction. The credit risk of the Group consists of the potential cost of replacing swap contracts if the parties fail to discharge their liabilities. This risk is monitored daily by reference to the current fair value, proportion of the face value of the contracts and market liquidity. The Group evaluates the parties to such contracts using the same methods as for its credit business, to control the level of its credit exposure.

Currency and interest rate options are agreements, pursuant to which the selling party grants the buying party the right, but not an obligation, to purchase (call option) or sell (put option) a specific quantity of a foreign currency or a financial instrument at a predefined price on or by a specific date or within an agreed period. In return for accepting currency or interest rate risk, the buyer offers the seller a premium. An option can be either a public instrument traded at a stock exchange or a private instrument negotiated between the Group and a customer (private transaction). The Group is exposed to credit risk related to purchased options only up to the balance sheet value of such options, i.e. the fair value of the options.

Market risk transactions include futures contracts as well as commodity options, stock options and index options.

Face values of certain types of financial instruments provide a basis for comparing them to instruments disclosed in the statement of financial position but they may not be indicative of the value of the future cash flows or of the present fair value of such instruments. For this reason, the face values do not indicate the level of the Group's exposure to credit risk or price change risk. Derivative instruments can have positive value (assets) or negative value (liabilities), depending on market interest or currency exchange rate fluctuations. The aggregate fair value of derivative financial instruments may be subject to strong variations.

Hedge accounting

The Group applies fair value hedge accounting and cash flow hedge accounting. Detailed information on hedge accounting are presented below.

In accordance with the IFRS9 provisions, only on the day of initial application the Group had the opportunity to choose as its accounting policy element to continue to apply the IAS 39 hedge accounting requirements instead of the IFRS 9 requirements.

The Group decided to continue from 1 January 2018, to apply the hedge accounting requirements in accordance with IAS 39.

The Group determines the hedge ratio based on the nominal value of the hedged item and hedging instrument and it is 1:1 (except for mortgage bonds issued by mBank Hipoteczny (mBH) at mBank Group hedging relationship, for which the hedged ratio was determined based on BPV (Basis Point Value) and the fair value hedge of loan portfolios granted by mBank's Czech Branch, where the nominal value of hedging instruments is determined at an amount lower than the nominal value of the hedged item in order to take into account the risk of prepayment).

The sources of hedge ineffectiveness for hedging relationships for which the ineffectiveness arises include mismatch of cash flow dates and repricing periods, base mismatch (e.g. different WIBOR), nominal mismatch in case when the hedge ratio is different than 1:1, CVA/DVA mismatch which is in hedging instrument and is not in hedged instrument and mismatch due to initial valuation of hedging instruments if a previously acquired derivative was included in hedging relationship.

Fair value hedge accounting

The Group applies fair value hedge accounting, under which the only kind of hedged risk is the risk of changes in interest rates.

At the end of each month, the Group evaluates effectiveness of the applied hedging by carrying out analysis of changes in fair value of the hedged and hedging instruments in respect of the hedged risk in order to confirm that hedging relationships are effective in accordance with the accounting policy described in Note 2.13 of Consolidated financial statements for 2021, published on 3 March 2022.

Description of the hedging relation

The Group hedges against the risk of change in fair value:

  • fixed interest rate eurobonds issued by mFinance France S.A. (mFF), subsidiary of mBank, acquired by the Bank in the substitution process. The hedged risk results from changes in interest rates,
  • mortgage bonds issued by mBank Hipoteczny (mBH), a subsidiary of mBank. The hedged risk results from changes in interest rates,
  • loans received by mBank from European Investment Bank. The hedged risk results from changes in interest rates,
  • fixed interest bonds issued by mBank. The hedged risk results from changes in interest rates,
  • senior non-preferred bonds issued by mBank fixed interest rate during five years since the issue date. The hedged risk results from changes in interest rates,
  • part of the fixed interest rate mortgage portfolio granted by mBank's foreign branch in the Czech Republic. The hedged risk results from changes in interest rates,
  • part of the portfolio of deposits modelled by the Bank in PLN with economic characteristics of fixed rate deposits. The hedged risk results from changes in interest rates.

  • one tranche of fixed interest rate eurobonds issued by mFF, acquired by the Bank in the substitution process, with a total nominal value of CHF 200 000 thousand,
  • fixed interest rate mortgage bonds issued by mBH with a nominal value of EUR 426 900 thousand,
  • fixed interest rate loans received by mBank from European Investment Bank with a nominal value of CHF 113 110 thousand, CHF 175 560 thousand and CHF 138 388 thousand,

Cash flow hedge accounting

Cash flow hedge accounting of the part of loans at a variable interest rate indexed to the market rate portfolio, granted by the Bank

The Group applies cash flow hedge accounting of the part of loans at a variable interest rate indexed to the market rate portfolio, granted by the Bank. An Interest Rate Swap is the hedging instrument changing the variable interest rate to a fixed interest rate. The interest rate risk is the hedged risk within applied by the Group cash flow hedge accounting. The ineffective portion of the gains or losses on the hedging instrument is presented in Note 8 in the position "Other net trading income and result on hedge accounting". Portion of the gains or losses on the hedging instrument that is an effective hedge, is presented in the statement of comprehensive income as "Cash flow hedges (net)".

The period from July 2022 to August 2029 is the period in which the cash flows are expected, and when they are expected to have an impact on the result.

Cash flow hedges in relation to mortgage loans and mortgage bonds issued by mBank Hipoteczny

The Group applies hedge accounting with respect to cash flows of the portfolio of mortgage loans denominated in PLN and mortgage bonds denominated in EUR issued by mBank Hipoteczny. The purpose of the hedging strategy is to eliminate the risk of volatility of cash flows generated by mortgage loans in PLN due to changes in reference interest rates and mortgage bonds denominated in a convertible currency due to exchange rate changes using currency interest rate swaps (CIRS).

As part of hedge accounting, the Group designates a hedged item consisting of:

  • parts of the portfolio of housing loans for retail customers entered in the collateral register for mortgage covered bonds, denominated in PLN with an interest rate indexed to 3M WIBOR, the loan margin is excluded from collateral,
  • mortgage bonds issued by the mBank Hipoteczny in EUR with a fixed interest rate.

As hedging instruments, the Group uses CIRS derivative transactions in which, as a party to the transaction, it pays variable interest flows in PLN increased by a margin and receives fixed interest rates in EUR and the denominations are exchanged at the beginning and at the end of the transaction. As transactions concluded by a mortgage bank, CIRS transactions are subject to entry in the register of covered bond collateral. In addition, if the bank's bankruptcy is announced by the court, it will not be immediately terminated, it will last until the end of the original maturity on the conditions specified on the date of the transaction (they will not be extended beyond the original maturity).

The Group hedges the interest rate risk and currency risk within one economic relationship between the concluded CIRS transactions and part of the loan portfolio in PLN and mortgage bonds financing them in EUR. For the purposes of cash flow hedge accounting, the Group simultaneously establishes two hedging relationships:

  • by decomposing the part of the actual CIRS transaction securing the portfolio of loans in PLN with a variable interest rate (hedging against interest rate risk) and,
  • by decomposing the actual portion of the CIRS transaction securing the liability in EUR (hedging against currency risk).

For the purpose of calculating changes in the fair value of future cash flows of items being hedged, the Group uses the "hypothetical derivative" method, which assumes the possibility of reflecting the hedged item and the characteristics of the risk being hedged in the form of a derivative. The valuation principles are analogous to the principles for the valuation of interest rate derivatives.

Debt securities issued

Debt securities issued 12 203 802 13 429 782

On 24 March 2022, the Bank concluded a synthetic securitization transaction referencing a portfolio of corporate as well as small and medium enterprises loans with a total value of PLN 8 922 million. The securitised portfolio has been divided into three tranches according to credit risk exposure for each tranche. The junior and senior tranche was acquired by mBank. The credit risk associated with the mezzanine tranche has been transferred to an external investor. As part of the transaction, the Bank transferred a significant part of the credit risk of a selected securitised portfolio to an investor. The risk transfer of the securitised portfolio is performed through a recognised credit protection instrument, in the form of a credit linked notes (hereinafter "CLNs"). The CLN, through the built-in financial guarantee, provides coverage of losses on the securitization portfolio up to the amount of the mezzanine tranche.

The retention requirement of an economic interest will be implemented by the Bank in the form of retaining at least 5% of the value of the loan portfolio subject to securitization.

As part of the transaction, on 24 March 2022, the Bank issued CLNs with a maturity date of 22 October 2038, with a total nominal value of PLN 642.5 million. The CLNs were purchased in total by a foreign financial investor represented by PGGM Vermogensbeheer B.V. The Bank has the option of early repayment of liabilities under the CLNs. The main collateral for CLNs are debt securities deposited with an independent custodian.

On 24 March 2022, CLNs were introduced to trading on the Vienna MTF operated by the Vienna Stock Exchange.

The transaction meets the requirements for significant risk transfer specified in the Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013 on prudential requirements for credit institutions and investment firms and amending regulation (EU) No 648/2012 ("CRR Regulation") and has been structured as meeting the STS criteria (simple, transparent and standard securitization) in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2021/557 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 31 March 2021 amending Regulation (EU) 2017/2402 laying down a general framework for securitisation and creating a specific framework for simple, transparent and standardised securitisation to help the recovery from the COVID-19 crisis, therefore results in a decrease of capital requirements for the Bank.

In accordance with IFRS 9, the contractual conditions of the transaction do not meet the conditions for derecognition of assets covered by the securitization transaction from the Bank's balance sheet, as the transaction did not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of the loan portfolio, at the same time the Bank retained control over the portfolio of securitised loans. The liability under the issued CLNs is shown under "Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost". The carrying amount of the CLN is adjusted for the change in the expected cash flows from the embedded financial guarantee in accordance with paragraph B5.4.6 of IFRS 9.

The carrying amount of CLNs as at 30 June 2022 amounted to PLN 647.1 million.

29. Fair value of asset and liabilities

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. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction of selling the asset or transferring a liability occurs either on the main market for the asset or liability, or in the absence of a main market, for the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

In line with IFRS 9, for accounting purposes, the Group determines the valuation of its assets and liabilities through amortised cost or through fair value. In addition, for the positions that are valued through amortised cost, there is calculated and disclosed the fair value, but only for disclosure purposes – according to IFRS 7.

The approach to the method used for the loans that are fair valued in line of IFRS 9 requirements, is described in the Note 3.3.7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements of mBank Group for 2021, published on 3 March 2022.

Following market practices the Group values open positions in financial instruments using either the mark to-market approach or is applying pricing models well established in market practice (mark-to-model method) which use as inputs market prices or market parameters, and in few cases, parameters estimated internally by the Group. All significant open positions in derivatives are valued by marked-to-model using prices observable in the market. Domestic commercial papers are marked to model (by discounting cash flows), which in addition to market interest rate curve uses credit spreads estimated internally.

For disclosure purposes, the Group assumed that the fair value of short-term financial liabilities (less than 1 year) is equal to the balance sheet values of such items. In addition, the Group assumes that the estimated fair value of financial liabilities longer than 1 year is based on discounted cash flows using appropriate interest rates.

Financial assets and liabilities at amortised cost

The following sections present the key assumptions and methods used by the Group for estimation of the fair values of financial instruments.

Loans and advances to banks and loans and advances to customers

The fair value for loans and advances to banks and loans and advances to customers is disclosed as the estimated value of future cash flows using current interest rates including appropriate credit spreads and is based on the expected maturity of the respective loan agreements. The level of credit spread was determined based on market quotation of median credit spreads for Moody's rating grade. Attribution of a credit spread to a given credit exposure is based on a mapping between Moody's rating grade and internal rating grades of the Group. To reflect the fact that the majority of the Group's exposures is collateralised whereas the median of market quotation is centred around unsecured issues, the Group applied appropriate adjustments.

The fair value of term loans to individual customers takes into account the impact of the Act on crowdfunding for business ventures and aid to borrowers, which introduces the possibility of suspending the execution of mortgage contracts granted in Polish currency (so-called "credit holidays").

Financial liabilities

Financial instruments representing liabilities for the Group include the following:

  • contracted borrowings,
  • current accounts and deposits,
  • issues of debt securities,
  • subordinated liabilities.

The fair value for these financial liabilities with more than 1 year to maturity is based on discounted cash flows by the use of discounting factor including an estimation of a spread reflecting the credit spread for mBank and the liquidity margin. For the loans received from European Investment Bank in EUR and in CHF the Group used the EBI yield curve. With regard to the own issue as part of the EMTN programme the market price of the relevant financial services has been used.

In the case of deposits, the Group has applied the curve constructed on the basis of quotations of money market rates as well as FRA and IRS contracts for appropriate currencies and maturities. In case of subordinated liabilities, the Group used curves based on cross-currency basis swap levels taking into account the original spread on subordinated liabilities and their maturities.

In the case of the valuation of bonds related to credit risk (Credit Link Note) the Group uses the method of discounting the expected cash flows from bonds. In the part related to the discounting factor, the valuation also includes a component that takes into account mBank's credit spread and a liquidity margin. Due to the fact that the bondholders are secured in terms of the issuer's credit risk with the deposited securities, an assumption was made that these parameters would remain unchanged during the life of the bond.

In case of covered bonds and other debt securities issued by mBank Hipoteczny, for the purpose of the disclosures swap curves and forecasted initial spreads for certain issues are used.

The Group assumed that the fair values of these instruments with less than 1 year to maturity was equal to the carrying amounts of the instruments.

According to the fair value methodology applied by the Group, financial assets and liabilities are classified as follows:

  • Level 1: prices quoted on active markets for the same instrument (without modification);
  • Level 2: prices quoted on active markets for the similar instruments or other valuation techniques for which all significant input data are based on observable market data;
  • Level 3: valuation methods for which at least one significant input data is not based on observable market data.

The table below presents the fair value hierarchy of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in accordance with the assumptions and methods described above, exclusively for disclosure as at 30 June 2022 and as at 31 December 2021.

During the first half of 2022 and in 2021 there were no transfers of financial instruments between the levels of fair value hierarchy.

With regard to financial instruments valuated in repetitive way to fair value classified as level 1 and 2 in hierarchy of fair value, any cases in which transfer between these levels may occur, are monitored by the Bank on the basis of internal rules. In case if there is no market price used to a direct valuation for more than 5 working days, the method of valuation is changed, i.e. change from marked-to-market valuation to marked-to-model valuation under the assumption that the valuation model for the respective type of this instrument has been already approved. The return to marked-to-market valuation method takes place after a period of at least 10 working days in which the market price was available on a continuous basis. If there is no market prices for a debt treasury bonds the above terms are 2 and 5 working days, respectively.

Level 1

As at 30 June 2022 at level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, the Group has presented the fair value of held for trading government bonds in the amount of PLN 712 143 thousand and the fair value of government bonds and treasury bills measured at fair value through other comprehensive income in the amount of PLN 20 214 758 thousand (31 December 2021: PLN 248 906 thousand and PLN 25 218 009 thousand, respectively). Level 1 includes the fair values of corporate bonds in the amount of PLN 1 299 484 thousand (31 December 2021: PLN 1 502 996 thousand).

In addition, as at 30 June 2022 level 1 includes the value of the registered preferred shares of Giełda Papierów Wartościowych in the amount of PLN 789 thousand (31 December 2021: PLN 870 thousand) and equity instruments in the amount of PLN 6 175 thousand.

As at 30 June 2022 level 1 also includes liabilities from short sale of securities in the amount of PLN 615 430 thousand (31 December 2021: PLN 84 774 thousand).

These instruments are classified as level 1 because their valuation is directly derived by applying current market prices quoted on active and liquid financial markets.

Level 2

As at 30 June 2022 level 2 of the fair value hierarchy mainly includes the fair values of bills issued by NBP in the amount of PLN 3 999 320 thousand (31 December 2021: PLN 8 495 243 thousand), valuation of which is based on a NPV model (discounted future cash flows) fed with interest rate curves generated by transformation of quotations taken directly from active and liquid financial markets.

In addition, the level 2 category includes the valuation of derivative financial instruments borne on models consistent with market standards and practices, using parameters taken directly from the markets (e.g. foreign exchange rates, implied volatilities of FX options, stock prices and indices) or parameters which transform quotations taken directly from active and liquid financial markets (e.g. interest rate curves).

Level 3

As at 30 June 2022 level 3 of the hierarchy presents the fair values of commercial debt securities issued by local banks and companies in the amount of PLN 1 563 826 thousand (31 December 2021: PLN 1 384 984 thousand), and includes the fair value of a debt instrument measured at fair value through profit or loss, representing the rights to preferred stock of Visa Inc.

As at 30 June 2022 level 3 includes also the fair value of local government bonds in the amount of PLN 34 060 thousand (31 December 2021: PLN 33 671 thousand).

Model valuation for these items assumes a valuation based on the market interest rate yield curve adjusted by the level of credit spread. The credit spread parameter reflects the credit risk of the security issuer and is determined in accordance with the Bank's internal model. This model uses credit risk parameters (e.g. PD, LGD) and information obtained from the market (including implied spreads from transactions). PD and LGD parameters are not observed on active markets and therefore have been determined on the basis of statistical analysis. Both models – the valuation of debt instruments and the credit spread model were built internally in the Bank by risk units, were approved by the Model Risk Committee and are subject to periodic monitoring and validation carried out by an entity independent of the units responsible for building and maintaining the model.

Level 3 as at 30 June 2022 includes the value of loans and advances to customers in the amount of PLN 989 933 thousand (31 December 2021: PLN 1 152 100 thousand). The fair value calculation process for loans and advances to customers is described in detail in the Note 3.3.7. of Consolidated financial statement of Group of mBank S.A. for 2021, published on 3 March 2022.

Moreover, as at 30 June 2022 level 3 covers mainly the fair value of equity securities amounting to PLN 155 763 thousand (31 December 2021: PLN 223 519 thousand). The equity securities presented at level 3 have been valuated using the discounted dividend method and discounted cash flows method. Valuation was carried out based on the selected financial data provided by the valuated entities and discounted using cost of capital calculated with CAPM model (Capital Asset Pricing Model). The cost of own capital were estimated at 12.4% at the end of June 2022 (31 December 2021: 7.9%).

As at 30 June 2022 level 3 also includes fair value of investment property in the amount of PLN 127 510 thousand (31 December 2021: PLN 127 510 thousand). The value of the property was estimated by a property appraiser entered in the Central Register of Property Appraisers kept by the Minister of Development and Technology. The property was valued using the income method. The key unobservable parameter used in the model is the capitalization rate of 9.28% used to discount cash flows.

Level 3 includes the valuation of CIRS contracts concluded under cash flow hedge accounting of the PLN mortgage loan portfolio and covered bonds issued by mBank Hipoteczny (Note 16). As at 30 June 2022 the valuation of these contracts amounted to PLN 46 447 thousand (31 December 2021: PLN 92 243 thousand).

30. Legal risk related to mortgage and housing loans granted to individual customers in CHF

Introduction

In recent years, a significant number of individual customers who took out 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. So far, there is no uniform line of judgments issued by courts in such cases.

The carrying amount of mortgage and housing loans granted to individual customers in CHF as of 30 June 2022 amounted to PLN 8.7 billion (i.e. CHF 1.8 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 30 June 2022, taking into account the exchange rate on the date of disbursement of individual loan tranches, amounted to PLN 6.9 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 30 June 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 voluntary 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.

Individual court cases against the Bank concerning loans indexed to CHF

As of 30 June 2022, 15 959 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 4 697.3 million (31 December 2021: PLN 3 506.5 million).

Out of the individual proceedings, 15 701 proceedings (31 December 2021: 13 036 proceedings) with the total value of claims amounting to PLN 4 692.0 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 June 2022 mBank received 1 049 final rulings in individual lawsuits (31 December 2021: 473 final rulings), out of which 89 rulings were favourable to the Bank and 960 rulings were unfavourable (31 December 2021: 82 rulings favourable and 391 unfavourable).

At the same time 171 proceedings (as of 30 June 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 judgments unfavourable for the Bank. Unfavourable judgments were based on the same patterns of facts which in the past had resulted in different verdicts. Approximately 78% 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.

Class action against mBank S.A. concerning indexation clauses

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 plaintiff appealed against this verdict. As of the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements the Bank did not change its risk assessment related to this proceeding as described below in the section concerning methodology of calculation the impact of the legal risk related to the class action case. As of 30 June 2022 the value of claims in this class action was equal to PLN 377 million.

Information on the most important court proceedings regarding loans indexed to CHF

Rulings of the Court of Justice of the European Union regarding CHF mortgages

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 (in the Bank's opinion article 358 of the Polish Civil Code referring to the NBP fixing rate can be considered to be 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. On September 8, 2022, the judgment will be announced. The litigation position was presented by the parties: Poland, the European Commission, Spain and Finland.

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 the continuation of the contract.

By the decision of 12 August 2021, another question was addressed to the CJEU, 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 date of the hearing before the CJEU was set for 12 October 2022

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 (on the basis of clear and comprehensible criteria) enable 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.

Supreme Court resolutions on loans in CHF

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 Polish Bank Association (ZBP) 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:

  • the prohibited contractual provision (Civil Code Art.385(1) §1) is from the very beginning, by virtue of law ineffective for the benefit of the consumer, who may subsequently grant informed and free consent to this provision and thus restore its effectiveness retroactively,
  • if the loan agreement cannot be binding after removal of an ineffective provision, the consumer and the bank are entitled to separate claims for the reimbursement of cash benefits provided in the performance of this agreement (Article 410 § 1 in conjunction with Article 405 of the Civil Code). The bank may request the return of the benefit from the moment the loan agreement becomes permanently ineffective.

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.

PFSA's Chairman proposal

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 3M WIBOR 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 30 June 2022, would amount to PLN 5.8 billion if only active portfolio 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.

As at the date of approval of these consolidated statements mBank has not made any decisions on offering settlements according to the PFSA's Chairman proposal nor has taken any steps to acquire any corporate consents in that matter.

Pilot settlement program

On 6 December 2021, the Bank began a pilot settlement program for borrowers who have an active CHF indexed loan. The first phase of the pilot concluded in March 2022. The settlement offer presented in the program consists in conversion of the CHF indexed loan into a PLN loan with simultaneous write-off of a portion of the loan balance. Similar to the PFSA's Chairman proposal this portion constitutes the difference between the current balance of the indexed loan expressed in PLN at the average exchange rate of the National Bank of Poland and the hypothetical balance that would exist if the loan had been originally contracted in PLN. In the Bank's pilot this difference is divided equally between the parties to the contract, and the Bank offers to cancel the loan balance in the amount equal to the part of this difference attributable to the Bank. This method of loan conversion guarantees equal distribution of materialised foreign exchange risk costs, which scale could not be foreseen by any of the parties to the loan agreement at the time of its conclusion. This will represent half of the benefits arising for the clients from the PFSA Chairman's proposal.

The offer was addressed to the owners of 1 278 active contracts, which in Bank's opinion is a representative sample of the whole portfolio of active loans indexed to CHF.

The first phase of the pilot concluded in the first quarter of 2022 with the result of approx. 8% of the settlements signed. During the pilot, the Bank noticed external factors that may have had an impact on its results and clients' decisions. These were, among others: uncertainty about the tax treatment of signed settlements, the rising exchange rate of the Swiss franc, the growing level of interest rates in Poland and, consequently, the rising cost of loans in PLN, and the economic uncertainty related to the war in Ukraine. Moreover, in the first half of 2022, the Bank continued the pilot of the settlement program and offered settlements to the new group of clients (approx. 1.8 thousand contracts). The second phase of the pilot concluded in the second quarter of 2022 with the result of approx. 11% of the settlements signed.

The maximum, hypothetical cost of the program would amount to PLN 2.98 billion (31 December 2021: PLN 2.97 billion), assuming that the settlements would be offered to all clients with active loans and all those clients would accept the conditions described above.

Accounting policies for recognizing the effect of legal risk related to court cases concerning CHF mortgage and housing loans to individual customers and the voluntary settlement program

The Group recognises the impact of the legal risk related to court cases concerning indexation clauses in mortgage and housing loans in CHF and voluntary settlements offered to CHF borrowers as reflected under:

  • IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments" in relation to active loans, including active loans covered by the class action case and voluntary settlements, and
  • IAS 37 "Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets" in relation to repaid loans.

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 voluntary 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 voluntary 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 impact of the legal risk related to court cases concerning indexation clauses in mortgage and housing loans in CHF and the voluntary settlement program

The method 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 voluntary settlement program is based on parameters that are highly judgmental and with a high range of possible values. It is possible that the impact of the legal risk will have to be adjusted significantly in the future, particularly that important parameters used in calculations are 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 voluntary 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 first two quarters of 2022 amounted to PLN 367.8 million (in first two quarters of 2021: PLN 314.8 million). The most significant factors of these costs in first two quarters of 2022 was the increase of the impact of the legal risk related to individual court cases, which mainly resulted from the change in level of loss on loan exposure in case of losing the case by the Bank and the cost of the final verdicts.

Methodology of calculating the impact of the legal risk related to individual court cases

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 and associated with significant degree of expert judgement. The most important assumptions are: an expected population of borrowers who will file a lawsuit against the Bank, the probability of losing the case having final and binding judgement, the distribution of expected verdicts judged by the courts and the loss to be incurred by the Bank in case of a losing the case in court.

Expected population of borrowers

The population of borrowers who will file a lawsuit against the Bank has been projected over the remaining life of the portfolio based on the Bank's history of legal cases in the past and assumes a further inflow of new cases. The Bank assumes that inflow of plaintiffs will be significant until the end of 2025. The Bank assumes that vast majority of the projected cases will be filed until the end of 2023, and then their number will decrease following the expected clarification of the legal environment.

For the purpose of calculating the impact of legal risk mBank assumes that approximately 27% of FX borrowers (i.e. 22 thousand borrowers with both, active: 41% and repaid loans: 9%) filed or will file a lawsuit against the Bank (as of 31 December 2021: 27%, i.e. 23 thousand borrowers). The Bank observes that clients with higher loan amounts were the first ones to file the claims (27% of customers represent 34% of the total CHF loan portfolio, both active and repaid), and therefore that average ticket of the suing population will be decreasing over time. 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 69.3 million (while other relevant assumptions remain constant) as compared to 30 June 2022, of which PLN 54.1 million would reduce gross carrying amount of the loans, and PLN 15.2 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).

Probability of losing the case

The Bank believes that since the current line of jurisprudence in CHF cases is inconsistent, the probability of losing court cases must, to a large extent, be based on professional judgement supported by external legal opinion until Polish Supreme Court and the CJEU address all the legal uncertainties (in particular, whether the abusive clauses may be replaced by another way of determining the foreign exchange rate pursuant to provisions of law, or whether, in the absence of the possibility of replacing the abusive clause by a provision of law, the contract may be binding on the parties in its remaining scope and whether banks may receive a compensation for usage of the principal granted).

Since, in the opinion of the Bank, the number of final verdicts is not statistically representative (too few binding verdicts have been issued by courts in cases related to mBank) the assumption of probability of losing in court takes also into account expert judgements of the Bank supported by an external legal opinions about the future trends in the court verdicts as well as upcoming verdicts of the Supreme Court and CJEU. As of 30 June 2022 the Bank assumes probability of losing in court at the level of 50% (as of 31 December 2021: 50%), basing on its own judgement supported by the external legal opinion. If the assumed probability of losing in court changed by +/- 1 percentage point and all other relevant assumptions remained constant, the impact of the legal risk would change by +/- PLN 59.7 million, of which PLN 53.2 million would change gross carrying amount of the loans, and PLN 6.5 million would change the provisions for legal proceedings.

The projected loss rate

The projected loss rate was calculated using the probabilities of different verdicts that may be issued. As currently there is still no homogenous line of verdicts taken by the courts the Bank took into account three possible losing scenarios: (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 of the loan indexed to CHF, (ii) the contract is invalid in whole because deleting the exchange rate clause would be too far reaching change (based on assumption that this clause defines the main subject matter of the contract), and (iii) the contract remains a mortgage indexed to CHF, but the FX clause is substituted by the fixing rate of the NBP. Under scenario (ii), the Bank takes into account two versions of the invalidity, assuming that the parties settle accounts in a formula similar to the settlement on a net basis. The first version assumes that the consumer is obliged to return the disbursed capital together with the remuneration for using it, and the second assumes that the consumer is only obliged to return the capital without remuneration. The Bank assumed the probability of each of these scenarios at the same level.

Each of these scenarios is associated with a different level of predicted losses for the Bank. The Bank calculated the average level of loss weighted with the probabilities of occurrence of the given scenario in case of negative final and binding judgement, with invalidity scenario assumed to be most probable. The probabilities of those scenarios applied by the Bank has been based on the assessment of the Bank consulted with the legal advisor. As of 30 June 2022 the average loss rate was equal to 81.5% of gross carrying amount of active loans and 52.1% of total value of the loan granted for repaid loans (as at 31 December 2021: 76.5% and 33.7%, respectively).

If the assumed weighted average loss changed by +/- 1 percentage point and all other relevant assumptions remained constant the impact of the legal risk would change by +/- PLN 37.1 million, of which PLN 32.6 million would change gross carrying amount of the loans, and PLN 4.5 million would change the provisions for legal proceedings.

Methodology of calculating the impact of the legal risk related to the class action case

The recognition of additional costs for class action case was preceded by an analysis of the chances of litigation in the light of the current case law and guidelines of the Court of Appeal for the District Court re-examining the case, supported by an opinion of the law firm handling the case. The increased likelihood of an unfavourable verdict, particularly one invalidating the loan agreements covered by the proceedings, justified the creation of a provision up to the amount of the claim in 2021. In the first half of 2022 Bank did not recognise additional cost related to class action.

Methodology of calculating settlement program costs

As at 30 June 2022, the Bank recognised the impact of legal risk in the amount of PLN 1 011.5 million to cover the costs of future settlements (31 December 2021: PLN 1 009.8 million). The amount corresponds to 34% of the maximum cost of settlements under the formula adopted in the currently running pilot described above. This represents the management's estimate that reflects the intention towards future voluntary settlements or, in case it is not fully used for that purpose, to cover currently unforeseen cost related to legal risks of CHF portfolio.

In the Bank's opinion, the future level of acceptance of settlements depends on a number of factors, the most important of which are:

  • financial terms of the offer,
  • further development of the court judicature in the CHF cases, in particular the resolution of the issue of application of dispositive provisions in place of clauses deemed abusive, the bank's right to reimbursement of the costs of using the capital made available to the client in case the agreement is deemed invalid, admissibility of declaring the loan agreement invalid,
  • duration of court proceedings in CHF cases,
  • changes in interest rates for PLN loans,
  • changes in the CHF/PLN exchange rate,
  • economic uncertainty caused by the war in Ukraine.

For the purpose of determining the value of the provision as of 30 June 2022, the Bank assumed that the maximum level of the offer acceptance will not exceed 34% of active contracts (31 December 2021: 34%). If the assumed level of the offer acceptance changed by +/- 1 percentage point and all other relevant assumptions remained constant the impact of the legal risk would change by +/- PLN 29.8 million which would change gross carrying amount of the loans.

The prudentially consolidated financial data includes the Bank and the following entities:

During preparation of prudentially consolidated financial data for six-month period ended on 30 June 2022, the same entities were consolidated as in process of preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements of the mBank Group for six-month period ended on 30 June 2022.

Entities included in the scope of prudential consolidation are defined in the Regulation CRR – institutions, financial institutions or ancillary services undertakings, which are subsidiaries or undertakings in which a participation is held, except for entities in which the total amount of assets and off-balance sheet items of the undertaking concerned is less than the smaller of the following two amounts:

  • EUR 10 million;
  • 1% of the total amount of assets and off-balance sheet items of the parent undertaking or the undertaking that holds the participation.

The consolidated financial data combine items of assets, liabilities, equity, income and expenses of the parent with those of its subsidiaries eliminating the carrying amount of the parent's investment in each subsidiary and the parent's portion of equity of each subsidiary. Any related goodwill, if goodwill has negative value, it is recognised directly in the income statement. The profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income is attributed to the Group's owners and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. If the Group loses control of a subsidiary, it shall account for all amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to that subsidiary on the same basis as would be required if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities

Intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between companies of the Group are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

The presented condensed consolidated report for the first half of 2022 fulfils the requirements of the International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" relating to interim financial reports.

In addition, selected explanatory information provide additional information in accordance with Decree of the Minister of Finance dated 29 March 2018 concerning the publication of current and periodic information by issuers of securities and the conditions of acceptance as equal information required by the law of other state, which is not a member state (Journal of Laws 2018, item 757).

2. Consistency of accounting principles and calculation methods applied to the drafting of the half-year report and the last annual financial statements

The description of the Group's accounting policies is presented in Note 2 of Consolidated financial statements of mBank S.A. Group for 2021, published on 3 March 2022. The accounting principles adopted by the Group were applied on a continuous basis for all periods presented in the financial statements.

3. Seasonal or cyclical nature of the business

The business operations of the Group do not involve significant events that would be subject to seasonal or cyclical variations.

  • 4. Nature and values of items affecting assets, liabilities, equity, net profit/loss or cash flows, which are unusual in terms of their nature, magnitude or exerted impact
  • In the financial results for the first half of 2022, the Bank recognised the cost of legal risk related to foreign currency loans in the amount of PLN 367.8 million. The detailed information in this regard is presented in Note 30.
  • In the first half of 2022, the Bank, together with other commercial banks, became a participant in the protection scheme referred to in Article 4.1.9a of the Banking Law Act of 29 August 1997 (Banking Law).

    • □ loans secured by a mortgage for the financing of commercial real properties;
    • □ loans granted to local government units or loans for which local government units issued any surety; and
    • □ loans secured by a mortgage granted to natural persons for purposes unrelated to any business activity subject to loan agreements concluded with clients on or before 25 July 2013 and that satisfy the criteria specified in the Demerger Plan.
  • by leaving with mBH the remaining part of the estate (assets and liabilities) and rights and obligations of the Demerged Company comprising an organised part of the enterprise of mBH, which is a collection of tangible and intangible assets separate both organizationally and financially within the existing enterprise of mBH, including obligations, designated for the achievement of tasks that are related with the operations of the Demerged Company as a mortgage bank, specifically within the scope of:
    • □ the granting and servicing of loans secured by a mortgage granted to natural persons for purposes unrelated to any business activity subject to loan agreements concluded by mBH with clients first in September 2013 within the scope of agency cooperation with the Bank,
    • □ acquiring receivables of other banks on account of mortgage secured loans granted thereby, including mortgage secured loans granted to natural persons for purposes unrelated with business activities, acquired from the Bank since 2014, the servicing of which was entrusted to the Bank under the outsourcing agreement
    • □ the issuance of securities, including specifically mortgage bonds and bonds, as well as performing other treasury related transactions and specifically derivative transactions

Since the Bank is the only shareholder of the Demerged Company there is no intention to increase the share capital of the Bank in connection with the Bank's acquisition of a part of the estate of the Demerged Company. In view of the above, the Bank will not issue shares in exchange for the acquired estate of the Demerged Company.

The Demerger will be carried out subject to obtaining the required regulatory approvals.

20. Information on changes in the economic situation and operating conditions that have a significant impact on the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities of the entity, regardless of whether these assets and liabilities are included in the fair value or in the adjusted purchase price (amortised cost)

The increase in interest rates had a significant impact on the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities. The NBP reference interest rate increased from 1.75% at the end of 2021 to 6.00% as at 30 June 2022, which had a negative impact on the valuation of derivatives and financial assets based on a fixed interest rate and measured at fair value.

In addition, the Act on crowdfunding for business ventures and aid to borrowers had significant and negative impact on the fair value of mortgages granted in Polish currency, as this Act introduced the possibility of suspending the performance of mortgage contracts granted in Polish currency (the so-called "credit holidays"). For the purpose of calculating the fair value adjustment of this portfolio, it was assumed that as of 30 June 2022 the probability of this law coming into effect was 100%, and the estimated participation of eligible borrowers would be 60%. For more information on the impact of the credit holidays, see Item 33 of Selected Explanatory Data.

Detailed information regarding fair value of financial asset and liabilities are presented in Note 29.

26. Proceedings before a court, arbitration body or public administration authority

The Group monitors the status of all court cases brought against entities of the Group, including the status of court rulings regarding loans in foreign currencies in terms of shaping of and possible changes in the line of verdicts of the courts, as well as the level of required provisions for legal proceedings.

The Group creates provisions for litigations against entities of the Group, which as a result of the risk assessment involve a probable outflow of funds from fulfilling the liability and when a reliable estimate of the amount of the liability can be made. The amount of provisions is determined taking into account the amounts of outflow of funds calculated on the basis of scenarios of potential settlements of disputable issues and their probability estimated by the Group based on the previous decisions of courts in similar matters and the experience of the Group.

The value of provisions for litigations as at 30 June 2022 amounted to PLN 497 589 thousand (PLN 395 889 thousand as at 31 December 2021). A potential outflow of funds due to the fulfilment of the obligation takes place at the moment of the final resolution of the cases by the courts, which is beyond the control of the Group.

  1. Claims of Interbrok's clients

Since 2008, the Bank has received 9 claims for damages in connection with the activities of Interbrok Investment E. Dróżdż I Spółka jawna (hereinafter Interbrok). Eight of the nine lawsuits were filed by former clients of Interbrok for the total amount of PLN 800 thousand with the proviso that the claims may be extended up to the total amount of PLN 5 950 thousand. The plaintiffs alleged that the Bank had aided Interbrok's in illegal activities, which caused damage to them. With regard to seven of the aforementioned cases, legal proceedings against the Bank were dismissed and the cases were finally concluded. In the eighth case, a plaintiff withdrew the suit waiving the claim and the Regional Court dismissed the action. As far as the ninth suit is concerned, the amount in dispute was PLN 276 499 thousand, including statutory interest and costs of proceedings. According to the claims brought in the suit, this amount comprised the receivables, acquired by the plaintiff by way of assignment, due to the parties aggrieved by Interbrok on account of a reduction (as a result of Interbrok's bankruptcy) of the receivables by a return of the deposits paid by the aggrieved for making investments on the forex market. The plaintiff claims the Bank's liability on the grounds of the Bank's aid in committing the illicit act of Interbrok, consisting in unlicensed brokerage operations. On 7 November 2017, the Regional Court in Warsaw dismissed the action in its entirety. The ruling is not final. The plaintiff appealed. By the judgment of 25 January 2021, the Court of Appeal in Warsaw dismissed the appeal of the plaintiff. The judgment of the District Court in Warsaw and the judgment of the Court of Appeal in Warsaw are final. The plaintiff appealed against the sentence in the Supreme Court. On 31 May 2022, the Supreme Court refused to accept the cassation complaint for review. The case was settled in favour of the Bank.

  1. A lawsuit filed by LPP S.A.

On 17 May 2018, mBank S.A. received a lawsuit filed by LPP S.A. with its registered office in Gdańsk seeking damages amounting to PLN 96 307 thousand on account of interchange fee. In the lawsuit, LPP S.A. petitioned the court for awarding the damages jointly from mBank S.A. and from other domestic bank.

The plaintiff accuses the two sued banks as well as other banks operating in Poland of taking part in a collusion breaching the Competition and Consumer Protection Act and the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. In the plaintiff's opinion, the collusion took the form of an agreement in restriction of competition in the market of acquiring services connected with settling clients' liabilities towards the plaintiff on account of payments for goods purchased by them with payment cards in the territory of Poland.

On 16 August 2018 mBank S.A. has submitted its statement of defence and requested that the action be dismissed. The court accepted the Defendants' requests to summon sixteen banks to join the proceedings and ordered that the banks be served with the summons. Two banks have notified of their intention to intervene in the case as an indirect intervener.

  1. A lawsuit filed by Polski Koncern Naftowy ORLEN S.A.

On 7 February 2020, mBank S.A. received a lawsuit filed by Polski Koncern Naftowy ORLEN S.A. (Orlen S.A.) with its registered office in Płock seeking damages amounting to PLN 635 681 thousand on account of interchange fee. In the lawsuit, Orlen S.A. petitioned the court for awarding the damages jointly from mBank S.A. and other domestic bank and also from Master Card Europe and VISA Europe Management Services.

The plaintiff accuses the two sued banks as well as other banks operating in Poland of taking part in a collusion breaching the Competition and Consumer Protection Act and the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, i.e. a collusion restricting competition in the market of acquiring services connected with settling clients' liabilities towards the plaintiff on account of card payments for goods and services purchased by clients on the territory of Poland. On 28 May 2020, mBank S.A. filed a response to the lawsuit and moved for a dismissal of a claim. The Court allowed for the motions of Defendants to summon 16 banks to participate in the case and preordained the service of a summoning motion to the banks. Two banks have notified of their intention to intervene in the case as an indirect intervener.

Tax inspections

On 11 May 2021, the Head of the Customs and Tax Office in Opole (Urząd Celno-Skarbowy w Opolu) has initiated tax audits regarding the correctness and reliability of withholding tax (WHT) settlements on payments listed in Art. 21 sec. 1 of the Act of 15 February 1992 on corporate income tax for years 2018 and 2019. The tax audit is under way.

The tax authorities may inspect at any time the books and records within 5 years subsequent to the reported tax year and may impose additional tax assessments and penalties. In the opinion of the Management Board there are no circumstances, which would indicate that crystallising of material tax liabilities in this respect is probable.

Inspection by the Social Insurance Institution (ZUS)

mFinanse S.A., a subsidiary of the Bank, is currently under inspection by the Social Insurance Institution (ZUS).

On 16 May 2022, the Company received a notice of intent to initiate an inspection by the Social Insurance Institution Branch in Warsaw regarding the correctness and reliability of calculating social insurance contributions and other contributions that the Institution is required to collect, as well as reporting for social insurance and health insurance for the years 2018 - 2021. As of the date of publishing these financial statements, the inspection has not been completed. The Group estimates that in the event of an unfavourable outcome of the inspection, its maximum negative impact on the Group's gross financial result may amount to approx. PLN 53 million.

The company is in dispute with the Social Security Institution over the interpretation of the application of social security regulation in the area of the cooperation model involving the simultaneous employment of intermediaries on a part-time basis and a civil law contract. There are currently 8 cases at the court stage in the area of the cooperation model used by the company. The Group's position is that the cooperation model used by the Company complies with the provisions of the law, including the Banking Law in terms of providing credit intermediaries with access to data covered by bank secrecy.

Inspection by the Office of the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (PFSA Office)

In the period from October till December 2018 the PFSA Office employees carried out an inspection in the Bank in order to investigate whether the activities of mBank S.A. in the area of fulfilling its duties as the depositary were in conformity with the law and agreements on the performance of functions of the depositary, in particular in conformity with the Act of 27 May 2004 on Investment Funds and Management of Alternative Investment Funds (Journal of Laws of 2018, item 1355, as later amended).

The detailed findings of the inspection were presented in the protocol delivered to the Bank on 11 February 2019. On 25 February 2019 the Bank delivered to the PFSA office its objections to the protocol as well as additional explanations related to the issues being the subject of the inspection.

On 1 April 2019 the Bank received PFSA response to the objections to the inspection protocol as well as PFSA recommendations in regard to the adjustment of Bank's activity as a depositary bank for investment funds to the applicable law. All objections of the Bank have been rejected by the regulator.

On 25 April 2019 the Bank submitted to PFSA Office a declaration of actions taken as realization of post inspection recommendations. PFSA by letter dated 4 September 2019 objected to the implementation of selected recommendations. On 11 October 2019 Bank submitted to PFSA the response addressing given objections, in which the description of taken actions was further specified as well as some new solutions for implementation were presented. On 5 December 2019, the PFSA Office sent to the Bank a reply to the letter containing the acceptance of some of the Bank's activities aimed at implementing post-audit recommendations and clarifications of other expectations that are being implemented. On 14 May 2020 the Bank formally confirmed the implementation of all the PFSA recommendations.

On 27 February 2020, the Bank received the decision of PFSA Office dated 25 February 2020 to initiate administrative proceedings regarding the imposition of an administrative penalty on the Bank, pursuant to the provisions of the Act dated 27 May 2004 on investment funds and management of alternative investment funds. On 23 April 2021 the Bank received a decision of the PFSA dated 16 April 2021 regarding this proceeding, imposing a fine on the Bank in the total amount of PLN 4 300 thousand. The Bank paid the fine on 17 March 2022.

On 7 May 2021, the Bank applied to the Financial Supervision Authority for reconsideration of the case. On 17 December 2021, PFSA Office upheld its decision of 16 April 2021. On 21 January 2022, the Bank filed a complaint with the Voivodship Administrative Court against the decision of PFSA. As at the date of approval of these financial statements, the case is pending before the administrative court.

Proceedings initiated by the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKiK)

  • Proceedings for considering provisions of a master agreement as abusive instituted ex officio on 12 April 2019. The proceedings concern amendment clauses stipulating circumstances under which the bank is authorised to amend the terms and conditions of the agreement, including the amount of fees and commissions. In the opinion of the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKiK), the amendment clauses used by the Bank give it an unlimited right to unilaterally and freely change the manner of performing the agreement. As a consequence, the UOKiK President represents the view that the clauses used by mBank define the rights and obligations of consumers contrary to good morals and grossly violate their interest and, thus, are abusive. The Bank does not agree with this stance. mBank responded to the decision on instituting the proceedings in letters dated 28 May 2019 and 10 January 2020. On 1 June 2022, the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKiK) sent another summons for explanations and documents. The agreed deadline for responding to the summons is 31 August 2022.
  • By a judgment of 2 February 2021, the Court of Appeal in Warsaw dismissed the Bank's appeal in the case concerning UOKiK proceedings initiated in 2015 regarding the application by mBank S.A. practices violating collective consumer interests, due to the fact that mBank did not apply a negative interest rate due to the negative base rate of LIBOR and changed the judgment of SOKiK in the part revoking the decision to impose a fine. The Bank complied with the judgment and paid a fine of PLN 6 585 thousand. On 14 June 2021, the Bank filed a cassation complaint with the Supreme Court. In an order dated 2 June 2022, the Supreme Court refused to accept of mBank S.A. cassation complaint for examination.
  • On 21 July 2017 the UOKiK instigated proceedings against mBank with regard to violation of consumers' collective interests. The UOKiK charged the Bank with failing to adequately inform clients about FX risk and about shifting FX risk onto consumers, and with incorrectly determining (inflating) credit instalments. In the letter dated 18 August 2017 the bank responded to the charges. In the letter dated 18 February 2019 the UOKiK President requested detailed information on the handling of mortgages indexed to foreign currencies, to which the Bank replied. In the letter dated 14 October 2021 the UOKiK President informed the Bank that the evidentiary proceedings had ended and appointed a time limit for the Bank to peruse the case file and to comment on the evidence collected in the case. The Bank

commented on the evidence collected within the prescribed period. The President of UOKiK extended the termination of the proceedings until 31 July 2022. As at the date of approval of these financial statements, the Group has not received information about another extension of the proceedings.

  • On 18 July 2022, the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKiK) delivered the decision to initiate proceedings for violation of the collective interests of consumers through:
    • □ failing, after a consumer notification an unauthorised transaction, to refund the unauthorised transaction or restore the account to its pre-transaction state,
    • □ providing consumers with information in response to complaints that proper authentication of the questioned transaction excludes the obligation to refund the transaction.

Proceedings have also been initiated against four other banks.

Previously, the UOKiK had conducted an investigation into the matter, initiated on 23 June 2021, in which the Bank provided explanations on 4 August 2021. In response to the initiated proceedings, the Bank will respond to the allegations raised by the Office.

The next quarter's results will be significantly affected by the entry into force of the Act on crowdfunding for business ventures and aid to borrowers, which introduces the possibility of suspending the performance of mortgage contracts granted in Polish currency (the so-called "credit holidays") and also introduces the obligation to contribute to the Borrower Support Fund. Given the above, the Group expects the mBank Group's net income to be negative in the third quarter of 2022. The Tier I capital ratios and the total capital ratio of the Bank and mBank Group will remain above the minimum capital requirements. More information on the impact of the credit vacations on the Group's results is presented in Item 33 of Selected Explanatory Data.

Increases in interest rates by 50 basis points, made by the Monetary Policy Council on 7 July 2022, will have a positive impact on the net interest income of mBank Group, but at the same time will have a negative impact on the valuation of derivatives and financial assets based on a fixed interest rate and valued at fair value.

In the coming quarter, the financial situation and quality of asset of mBank S.A. Group will also be affected by the repercussions of the war in Ukraine, such as sanctions and restrictions in international trade.

The results in the coming quarter may also be affected by potential settlements of the Supreme Court, other national institutions or Court of Justice of the European Union in cases related to foreign currencies loans, which is presented in detail in the Note 30.

32. Other information

■ Requirements on mBank Group capital ratios as of 30 June 2022

The minimum required level of capital ratios at the end of 30 June 2022 amounted to:

  • Individual total capital ratio: 13.51% and Tier 1 capital ratio: 10.89%
  • Consolidated total capital ratio: 13.17% and Tier 1 capital ratio: 10.64%.

At the date of approval of these financial statements, mBank S.A. and mBank Group S.A. fulfil the PFSA requirements related to the required capital ratios on both individual and consolidated levels.

■ Transitional arrangements in response to the COVID-19 pandemic

As of 30 June 2022 mBank Group included transitional provisions regarding the temporary treatment of unrealised gains and losses on financial instruments 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 in the calculation of own funds, capital ratios and leverage ratio.

The application of the transitional provisions is intended to mitigate the negative impact of unrealised losses on government and local government debt instruments during the COVID-19 pandemic and the decision to apply them means that the Group will be able to limit the impact of significant part of the volatility of the market valuation of the government and local government bonds portfolio.

The measures reported calculated taking into account the transitional provisions as well as measures calculated without taking into account the transitional provisions are presented below.

33. Events after the balance sheet date

On 14 July 2022, the President of the Republic of Poland signed the Act on crowdfunding for business ventures and aid to borrowers, which introduces the possibility of suspending the execution of mortgage contracts granted in Polish currency (so-called "credit holidays"). The Group expects the credit vacation to have a negative impact of between PLN 1.0 billion and PLN 1.4 billion on the mBank Group's gross profit for the third quarter of 2022. The above stated range is on the basis of estimated participation between 60% and 80% among currently assumed eligible borrowers.

The Act on crowdfunding for business ventures and aid to borrowers also makes a mandatory contribution to the Borrower Support Fund. The Group estimates that the contribution to the Borrower Support Fund will be between PLN 93 million and PLN 154 million depending on the assumptions. The final amount will be set by the Council of the Borrower Support Fund.

Given the above, the Group expects the mBank Group's net income to be negative in the third quarter of 2022. Tier 1 capital ratios and total capital ratios at the Bank and mBank Group levels remain above minimum capital requirements.

The law also provides for a process leading to the replacement of the WIBOR interest rate with a new reference index. In the absence of more detailed information on the new reference index that will replace WIBOR, it is not possible to estimate the potential impact of the above changes in the future.

EXPLANATORY NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Description of relevant accounting policies

Accounting basis

The condensed financial statements of mBank S.A. have been prepared for the 6-month period ended 30 June 2022. Comparative data include the period from 1 January 2021 to 30 June 2021 for the condensed income statement, condensed statement of comprehensive income, the condensed statement of cash flows and condensed statement of changes in equity, additionally for the period from 1 January to 31 December 2021 for the condensed statement of changes in equity, and in the case of the condensed statement of financial position, data as at 31 December 2021.

These interim financial statements the first half of 2022 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, and should be read in conjunction with the Financial statements of mBank S.A. for 2021, published on 3 March 2022. They do not include all of the information required for a complete set of financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS Standards.

In addition, selected explanatory information provide additional information in accordance with Decree of the Minister of Finance dated 29 March 2018 concerning the publication of current and periodic information by issuers of securities and the conditions of acceptance as equal information required by the law of other state, which is not a member state (Journal of Laws 2018, item 757).

Detailed accounting principles applied to the preparation of these condensed financial statements are presented in Note 2 to the financial statements of mBank S.A. for 2021, published on 3 March 2022.

The preparation of the financial statements requires the application of specific accounting estimates. It also requires the Management Board to use its own judgment when applying the accounting policies adopted by the Bank. The issues in relation to which a significant professional judgement is required, more complex issues, or such issues where estimates or judgments are material to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 2.

Financial statements are prepared in compliance with materiality principle. Material omissions or misstatements of positions of financial statements are material if they could, individually or collectively, influence the economic decisions that users make on the basis of Bank's financial statements. Materiality depends on the size and nature of the omission or misstatement of the position of financial statements or a combination of both. The Bank presents separately each material class of similar positions. The Bank presents separately positions of dissimilar nature or function unless they are immaterial.

These condensed financial statements were prepared under the assumption that the Bank continues as a going concern in the foreseeable future, i.e. in the period of at least 12 months following the reporting date. As of the date of approving these statements, the Bank Management Board has not identified any events that could indicate that the continuation of the operations by the Bank is endangered in the period of 12 months from the reporting date.

New standards, interpretations and amendments to published standards

The detailed information regarding the new International Accounting Standards and the International Financial Reporting Standards is presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements of mBank S.A. Group for the first half of 2022.

2. Major estimates and judgments made in connection with the application of accounting policy principles

The Bank applies estimates and adopts assumptions which impact the values of assets and liabilities presented in the subsequent period. Estimates and assumptions, which are continuously subject to assessment, rely on historical experience and other factors, including expectations concerning future events, which seem justified under the given circumstances.

Provisions for legal risks relating to indexation clauses in mortgage and housing loans in CHF

Detailed information on the impact of legal risk related to CHF mortgage and housing loans is provided in Note 30 of Condensed consolidated financial statements of mBank S.A. Group for the first half of 2022.

Impairment of loans and advances

The Bank reviews its loan portfolio in terms of possible impairments at least once per quarter. In order to determine whether any impairment loss should be recognised in the income statement, the Bank assesses whether any evidence exists that would indicate some measurable reduction of estimated future cash flows attached to the loan portfolio. The methodology and the assumptions, on the basis of which the estimated cash flow amounts and their anticipated timing are determined, are regularly verified. If the current value of estimated cash flows (discounted recoveries from payments of capital, discounted recoveries from

interests, discounted recoveries from off-balance sheet liabilities and discounted recoveries from collaterals for on-balance and off-balance sheet loans and advances, weighed by the probability of realisation of specific scenarios) for portfolio of loans and advances and for off-balance sheet liabilities which are impaired as of 30 June 2022, change by +/- 10%, the estimated loans and advances and off-balance sheet liabilities impairment would either decrease by PLN 33.8 million or increase by PLN 35.2 million (as at 31 December 2021: PLN 31.4 million and PLN 32.8 million). This estimation was performed for portfolio of loans and advances and for off-balance sheet liabilities individually assessed for impairment on the basis of future cash flows due to repayments and recovery from collateral – Stage 3. The rules of determining write-downs and provisions for impairment of credit exposures have been described under Note 3.3.6 of financial statements of mBank S.A. for 2021, published on 3 March 2022.

Actions taken in relation to the current situation in Ukraine

In the second quarter of 2022, the Bank conducted a portfolio review in connection with Russia's aggression against Ukraine. The review concerned the Bank's involvement in war countries (Ukraine, Russia) or in conflict-related countries (Belarus), taking into account sanctions imposed by the European Union, the United Kingdom and the USA.

Additional cost of risk due to the current situation in Ukraine

Due to the changes in the economic situation in the country resulting from the Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the Bank in the second quarter of 2022 worked on an update of the forecasts of future macroeconomic conditions that are incorporated into the risk parameter models used to calculate the expected credit loss. The update was preceded in the first quarter of 2022 by the assignment of a weight of 100% for the pessimistic scenario in the expected credit loss model. The detailed description of the above-mentioned modifications can be found below.

Impact of the macroeconomic environment forecast on the expected credit loss values

In the second quarter of 2022, the Bank worked on updating the forecasts of future macroeconomic conditions that are incorporated into the risk parameter models used to calculate the expected credit loss. The forecasts take into account the current development of the economic situation in the country resulting from the Russia's invasion of Ukraine and they are consistent with the forecasts used by the Bank in the planning process.

In order to assess expected credit loss (ECL) sensitivity to the future macroeconomic conditions, mBank determined the ECL value separately for each of the scenarios used for the purposes of calculating the expected credit risk losses. The impact of each of the scenarios is presented below.

The table below presents forecasts of the main macroeconomic indicators included in the risk parameter models which are used to calculate the expected credit loss.

* Due to the requirements of Recommendation R, starting in the second quarter of 2022, the scope of the analysis was expanded to include a breakdown of performance by stage.

The above results were estimated taking into account the equal allocation to the stage 2 based on the weighted average of all 3 macroeconomic scenarios, without an assumption of additional potential migrations between stages. The ECL sensitivity analysis was performed for 90% of the assets of the portfolio of loans and advances to customers (excluding the impaired exposures and the exposures not valued with the use of models).

For the specialised lending portfolio there was provided a recalibration of long-term default probability and long-term loss models used for the calculation of expected credit losses and there was provided an update of macroeconomic forecasts, preceded in the first quarter of 2022 by the assignment of a weight of 100% for the pessimistic scenario in the expected credit loss model. The total impact on the level of expected credit loss of all changes for the specialised lending portfolio in the first half of 2022 was a release of provisions in the amount of PLN 2.1 million (positive impact on the result).

For the remaining loan portfolio, in the first half of 2022, there was performed an analysis of an update of macroeconomic forecasts, preceded in the first quarter of 2022 by the assignment of a weight of 100% for the pessimistic scenario in the expected credit loss model. The impact of these changes on the level of expected credit loss, for the loan portfolio not including specialised lending, was recognised as a creation of provisions in the amount of PLN 73 million (negative impact on the result) in the first half of 2022. Additionally, the impact on the fair value valuation of the non-mortgage portfolio amounted to PLN 1.8 million in the first half of 2022 (negative impact on the result).

Fair value of derivatives and other financial instruments

The fair value of financial instruments not listed on active markets is determined by applying valuation techniques. All models are approved prior to being applied and they are also calibrated in order to assure that the obtained results indeed reflect the actual data and comparable market prices. As far as possible, observable market data originating from an active market are used in the models. Methods for determining the fair value of financial instruments are described in Note 2.5. of financial statements of mBank S.A. for 2021, published on 3 March 2022.

Deferred tax assets

Deferred tax assets are recognised in respect of tax losses to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available, against which the losses can be utilised. Judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and level of future taxable profits.

Income tax in interim financial statements

Income tax in interim financial statements is accrued in accordance with IAS 34. Interim period tax expense is accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual earnings, that is, the estimated average annual effective income tax rate applied to the pre-tax income of the interim period.

The calculation of the average annual effective income tax rate requires the use of a pre-tax income forecast for the entire fiscal year and permanent differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax base. The projected annual effective tax rate used to calculate the income tax expense during the first half of 2022 was 42.7% (in the first half of 2021: 41.8%). The main impact on the increase in the average annual effective tax rate in comparison to nominal income tax rate in the first half of 2022 was the projected impact of the so-called "credit holidays" on the Bank's gross profit in the second half of 2022.

Revenue and expenses from sale of insurance products bundled with loans

Revenue from sale of insurance products bundled with loans are split into interest income and fee and commission income based on the relative fair value analysis of each of these products.

The remuneration included in fee and commission income is recognised partly as upfront income and partly including deferring over time based on the analysis of the stage of completion of the service.

Currently the Bank recognises upfront less than 8% of bancassurance income associated with cash and car loans and 0% to approximately 20% of bancassurance income associated with mortgage loans. Recognition of the remaining part of the income is spread over the economic life of associated loans. Expenses directly linked to the sale of insurance products are recognised using the same pattern.

Liabilities due to post-employment employee benefits

The costs of post-employment employee benefits are determined using an actuarial valuation method. The actuarial valuation involves making assumptions about discount rates, future salary increases, mortality rates and other factors. Due to the long–term nature of these programmes, such estimates are subject to significant uncertainty.

Leasing classification

Estimates relating to leases, where the Bank is a lessee, in areas such as determination of the duration of contracts, determining the interest rate used to discount future cash flows and determination of the depreciation rate of right-of-use assets are presented in Note 2.22 to the financial statements of mBank S.A. for 2021, published on 3 March 2022.

SELECTED EXPLANATORY INFORMATION

The description of the Bank's accounting policies is presented in Note 2 of Financial statements of mBank S.A. for 2021, published on 3 March 2022. The accounting principles adopted by the Bank were applied on a continuous basis for all periods presented in the financial statements.

3. Seasonal or cyclical nature of the business

The business operations of the Bank do not involve significant events that would be subject to seasonal or cyclical variations.

4. Nature and values of items affecting assets, liabilities, equity, net profit/(loss) or cash flows, which are unusual in terms of their nature, magnitude or exerted impact

  • The value of the portfolio of mortgage loans granted in PLN measured at fair value through other comprehensive income was significantly affected by the Act on crowdfunding for business ventures and aid to borrowers which introduced the possibility of suspending the performance of mortgage loan agreements granted in Polish currency (so-called "loan holidays"). On this account, the Bank reduced the value of these loans as of 30 June 2022 by PLN 585.1 million, which resulted in a decrease of other components of equity by 489.0 million PLN including tax effect.
  • In the financial results for the first half of 2022, Bank recognised the cost of legal risk related to foreign currency loans in the amount of PLN 367.8 million. The detailed information in this regard is presented in Note 30 of Condensed consolidated financial statements of mBank S.A. Group for the first half of 2022.
  • In the first half of 2022, the Bank, together with other commercial banks, became a participant in the protection scheme referred to in Article 4.1.9a of the Banking Law Act of 29 August 1997 (Banking Law). Accordingly, the Bank will credit the aid fund with a contribution of PLN 390 834 thousand, which was charged to overheads costs.
  • Also the increase in interest rates had a significant impact on the financial condition of the Bank. The reference rate of NBP increased from the level of 1.75% as at the end of 2021 to the level of 6.00% as at 30 June 2022, which was reflected in the increase of net interest income but had a negative impact on the valuation of derivatives and financial assets based on a fixed interest rate and measured at fair value.

5. Nature and amounts of changes in estimate values of items, which were presented in previous interim periods of the current reporting year, or changes of accounting estimates indicated in prior reporting years, if they bear a substantial impact upon the current interim period

The financial results for the first half of 2022 include cost of legal risk related to foreign currencies loans in the amount of PLN 367.8 million. The detailed information are presented in Note 30 of Condensed consolidated financial statements of mBank S.A. Group for the first half of 2022.

6. Issues, redemption and repayment of non-equity and equity securities

21. Information on changes in the economic situation and operating conditions that have a significant impact on the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities of the entity, regardless of whether these assets and liabilities are included in the fair value or in the adjusted purchase price (amortised cost)

The increase in interest rates had a significant impact on the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities. The NBP reference interest rate increased from 1.75% at the end of 2021 to 6.00% as at 30 June 2022, which had a negative impact on the valuation of derivatives and financial assets based on a fixed interest rate and measured at fair value.

In addition, the Act on crowdfunding for business ventures and aid to borrowers had significant and negative impact on the fair value of mortgages granted in PLN, as this Act introduced the possibility of suspending the performance of mortgage contracts granted in Polish currency (the so-called "credit holidays"). For the purpose of calculating the fair value adjustment of this portfolio, it was assumed that as of 30 June 2022 the probability of this law coming into effect was 100%, and the estimated participation of eligible borrowers would be 60%. On this account as of 30 June 2022, the Bank reduced the carrying value of mortgages granted in PLN measured in fair value through other comprehensive income by PLN 585.1 million, which resulted in a decrease of other components of equity by 489.0 million PLN including tax effect. For more information on the impact of the credit holidays, see Item 36 of Selected Explanatory Data.

The total costs of remuneration of Members of the Supervisory Board, the Management Board and other key management personnel of the Bank that perform their duties from 1 January to 30 June 2022 recognised in the Bank's income statement for that period amounted to PLN 15 544 thousand (in the period from 1 January to 30 June 2021: PLN 11 731 thousand).

With regard to the Management Board and other key management personnel the remuneration costs include also remuneration in the form of shares and share options.

31. Credit and loan guarantees, other guarantees granted of significant value

In the three-month period, ended on 30 June 2022, Bank has not concluded any substantial agreements regarding credit and loan guarantees or guarantees granted of a significant amount.

32. Fair value of assets and liabilities

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. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction of selling the asset or transferring a liability occurs either on the main market for the asset or liability, or in the absence of a main market, for the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

In line with IFRS9, for accounting purposes, the Bank determines the valuation of its assets and liabilities through amortised cost or through fair value. In addition, for the positions that are valued through amortised cost, there is calculated and disclosed the fair value, but only for disclosure purposes – according to IFRS7.

The approach to the method used for the loans that are fair valued in line of IFRS9 requirements, is described in the Note 3.3.7 to the financial statements of mBank S.A. for 2021, published on 3 March 2022.

Following market practices the Bank values open positions in financial instruments using either the mark-to-market approach or is applying pricing models well established in market practice (mark-to-model method) which use as inputs market prices or market parameters, and in few cases, parameters estimated internally by the Bank. All significant open positions in derivatives are valued by marked-to-model using prices observable in the market. Domestic commercial papers are marked to model (by discounting cash flows), which in addition to market interest rate curve uses credit spreads estimated internally.

For disclosure purposes, the Bank assumed that the fair value of short-term financial liabilities (less than 1 year) is equal to the balance sheet values of such items. In addition, the Bank assumes that the estimated fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities longer than 1 year is based on discounted cash flows using appropriate interest rates.

The following sections present the key assumptions and methods used by the Bank for estimation of the fair values of financial instruments:

Loans and advances to banks and loans and advances to customers

The fair value for loans and advances to banks and loans and advances to customers is disclosed as the estimated value of future cash flows (including the effect or prepayments) using current interest rates including appropriate credit spreads and is based on the expected maturity of the respective loan agreements. The level of credit spread was determined based on market quotation of median credit spreads for Moody's rating grade. Attribution of a credit spread to a given credit exposure is based on a mapping between Moody's rating grade and internal rating grades of the Bank. To reflect the fact that the majority of the Bank's exposures is collateralised whereas the median of market quotation is centred around unsecured issues, the Group applied appropriate adjustments.

The fair value of term loans to individual customers takes into account the impact of the Act on crowdfunding for business ventures and aid to borrowers, which introduces the possibility of suspending the execution of mortgage contracts granted in Polish currency (so-called "credit holidays").

Financial liabilities

Financial instruments representing liabilities for the Bank include the following:

  • contracted borrowings,
  • current accounts and deposits,
  • issues of debt securities,
  • subordinated liabilities.

The fair value for these financial liabilities with more than 1 year to maturity is based on discounted cash flows by the use of discounting factor including an estimation of a spread reflecting the credit spread for mBank and the liquidity margin. For the loans received from European Investment Bank in EUR and in CHF the Bank used the EBI yield curve. With regard to the own issue as part of the EMTN programme the market price of the relevant financial services has been used.

In the case of a credit risk related bonds - Credit Link Note (CLN), the bank uses the method of discounted cash flows bonds for the valuation. Discounted factor also includes a component that takes into account mBank's credit spread and a liquidity margin. Due to the fact that the bondholders are secured against the issuer's credit risk with the deposited collateral, an assumption was made that these parameters would remain unchanged during the life of the bond.

In the case of deposits, the Bank has applied the curve constructed on the basis of quotations of money market rates as well as FRA and IRS contracts for appropriate currencies and maturities. In case of subordinated liabilities, the Bank used curves based on cross-currency basis swap levels taking into account the original spread on subordinated liabilities and their maturities.

Bank assumed that the fair values of these instruments with less than 1 year to maturity was equal to the carrying amounts of the instruments.

According to the fair value methodology applied by the Bank, financial assets and liabilities are classified as follows:

  • Level 1: prices quoted on active markets for the same instrument (without modification);
  • Level 2: prices quoted on active markets for the similar instruments or other valuation techniques for which all significant input data are based on observable market data;
  • Level 3: valuation methods for which at least one significant input data is not based on observable market data.

The table below presents the fair value hierarchy of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in accordance with the assumptions and methods described above, exclusively for disclosure as at 30 June 2022 and as at 31 December 2021.

During the first half of 2022 and during 2021 there were no transfers of financial instruments between the levels of fair value hierarchy.

With regard to financial instruments valuated in repetitive way to the fair value classified as level 1 and 2 in hierarchy of fair value, any cases in which transfer between these levels may occur, are monitored by the Bank on the basis of internal rules. In case if there is no market price used to a direct valuation for more than 5 working days, the method of valuation is changed, i.e. change from marked-to-market valuation to marked-to-model valuation under the assumption that the valuation model for the respective type of this instrument has been already approved. The return to marked-to-market valuation method takes place after a period of at least 10 working days in which the market price was available on a continuous basis. If there is no market prices for a debt treasury bonds the above terms are respectively 2 and 5 working days.

Level 1

As at 30 June 2022 at level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, the Bank has presented the fair value of held for trading government bonds in the amount of PLN 712 143 thousand and the fair value of government bonds and treasury bills measured at fair value through other comprehensive income in the amount of PLN 19 436 683 thousand (31 December 2021: PLN 248 906 thousand and PLN 24 468 564 thousand, respectively). Level 1 includes the fair values of corporate bonds in the amount of PLN 1 299 484 thousand (31 December 2021: PLN 1 502 996 thousand).

In addition, as at 30 June 2022 level 1 includes the value of the registered privileged shares of Giełda Papierów Wartościowych in the amount of PLN 789 thousand (31 December 2021: PLN 870 thousand) and equity instruments in the amount of PLN 6 175 thousand.

As at 30 June 2022 also includes liabilities from short sale of securities quoted on active markets in the amount of PLN 615 430 thousand (31 December 2021: PLN 84 774 thousand).

These instruments are classified as level 1 because their valuation is directly derived by applying current market prices quoted on active and liquid financial markets.

Level 2

Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy mainly includes the fair values of bills issued by NBP in the amount of PLN 3 999 320 thousand (31 December 2021: PLN 8 495 243 thousand), valuation of which is based on a NPV model (discounted future cash flows) fed with interest rate curves generated by transformation of quotations taken directly from active and liquid financial markets.

In addition, the level 2 category includes the valuation of derivative financial instruments borne on models consistent with market standards and practices, using parameters taken directly from the markets (e.g. foreign exchange rates, implied volatilities of FX options, stock prices and indices) or parameters which transform quotations taken directly from active and liquid financial markets (e.g. interest rate curves).

Level 3

Level 3 of the hierarchy presents the fair values of commercial debt securities issued by local banks and companies in the amount of PLN 2 250 716 thousand (31 December 2021: PLN 1 977 236 thousand), and includes the fair value of a debt instrument measured at fair value through profit or loss, representing the rights to preferred stock of Visa Inc.

Level 3 includes also the fair value of local government bonds in the amount of PLN 34 060 thousand (31 December 2021: PLN 33 671 thousand).

Model valuation for these items assumes a valuation based on the market interest rate yield curve adjusted by the level of credit spread. The credit spread parameter reflects the credit risk of the security issuer and is determined in accordance with the Bank's internal model. This model uses credit risk parameters (e.g. PD, LGD) and information obtained from the market (including implied spreads from transactions). PD and LGD parameters are not observed on active markets and therefore have been determined on the basis of statistical analysis. Both models - the valuation of debt instruments and the credit spread model were built internally in the Bank by risk units, were approved by the Model Risk Committee and are subject to periodic monitoring and validation carried out by an entity independent of the units responsible for building and maintaining the model.

Level 3 as at 30 June 2022 includes the value of loans and advances to customers in the amount of PLN 19 993 356 thousand (31 December 2021: PLN 19 223 149 thousand). The fair value calculation process for loans and advances to customers is described in detail in the Note 3.3.7. of financial statement of mBank S.A. for 2021, published on 3 March 2022.

Moreover level 3 includes the value of loans and advances to customers in the amount of PLN 93 788 thousand (31 December 2021: PLN 147 596 thousand). The equity securities presented at level 3 have been valuated using the discounted dividend method and discounted cash flows method. Valuation was carried out based on the selected financial data provided by the valuated entities and discounted using cost of capital calculated with CAPM model (Capital Asset Pricing Model). The cost of own capital were estimated at 12.4% at the end of June 2022 (31 December 2021: 7.9%).

As at 30 June 2022 and 31 December 2021 level 3 also includes fair value of investment property in the amount of PLN 127 510 thousand.

The table below presents the sensitivity of the fair value measurement to the change of unobservable parameters used in the models for financial instruments measured at fair value at level 3.

33. Other information which the issuer deems necessary to assess its human resources, assets, financial position, financial performance and their changes as well as information relevant to an assessment of the issuer's capacity to meet its liabilities

In the first half of 2022, events as indicated above did not occur in the Group.

34. Factors affecting the results in the coming quarter

The next quarter's results will be significantly affected by the entry into force of the Act on crowdfunding for business ventures and aid to borrowers, which introduces the possibility of suspending the performance of mortgage contracts granted in Polish currency (the so-called "credit holidays") and also introduces the obligation to contribute to the Borrower Support Fund. Given the above, the Bank expects that the net income will be negative in the third quarter of 2022. The Tier I capital ratios and the total capital ratio will remain above the minimum capital requirements. More information on the impact of the credit vacations on the Bank's results is presented in Item 36 of Selected Explanatory Data.

Increases in interest rates by 50 basis points, made by the Monetary Policy Council on 7 July 2022, will have a positive impact on the net interest income of the Bank, but at the same time will have a negative impact on the valuation of derivatives and financial assets based on a fixed interest rate and valued at fair value.

In the coming quarter, the financial situation and quality of asset of the Bank will also be affected by the repercussions of the war in Ukraine, such as sanctions and restrictions in international trade.

The results in the coming quarter may also be affected by potential settlements of the Supreme Court, other national institutions or Court of Justice of the European Union in cases related to foreign currencies loans, which is presented in detail in the Note 30 of Condensed consolidated financial statements of mBank S.A. Group for the first half of 2022.

35. Other information

■ Requirements on mBank Group capital ratios as of 30 June 2022

The minimum required level of capital ratios at the end of 30 June 2022 amounted to:

  • Individual total capital ratio: 13.51% and Tier 1 capital ratio: 10.89%
  • Consolidated total capital ratio: 13.17% and Tier 1 capital ratio: 10.64%.

At the date of approval of these financial statements, mBank S.A. and mBank Group S.A. fulfil the PFSA requirements related to the required capital ratios on both individual and consolidated levels.

■ Transitional arrangements in response to the COVID-19 pandemic

As of 30 June 2022 mBank included transitional provisions regarding the temporary treatment of unrealized gains and losses on financial instruments 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 in the calculation of own funds, capital ratios and leverage ratio.

The application of the transitional provisions is intended to mitigate the negative impact of unrealized losses on government and local government debt instruments during the COVID-19 pandemic and the decision to apply them means that the Bank will be able to limit the impact of significant part of the volatility of the market valuation of the government and local government bonds portfolio.

The measures reported calculated taking into account the transitional provisions as well as measures calculated without taking into account the transitional provisions are presented below.

36. Events after the balance sheet date

On 14 July 2022, the President of the Republic of Poland signed the Act on crowdfunding for business ventures and aid to borrowers, which introduces the possibility of suspending the execution of mortgage contracts granted in Polish currency (so-called "credit holidays"). The Bank expects the credit vacation to have a negative impact of between PLN 1.0 billion and PLN 1.3 billion on the Bank's gross profit for the third quarter of 2022. The above stated range is on the basis of estimated participation between 60% and 80% among currently assumed eligible borrowers. Expected influence of "credit holidays" on the value of the portfolio of mortgage loans measured at fair value through other comprehensive income was included in these financial statements as it was described in Item 4 of Selected explanatory data.

The Act on crowdfunding for business ventures and aid to borrowers also makes a mandatory contribution to the Borrower Support Fund. The Bank estimates that the contribution to the Borrower Support Fund will be between PLN 87 million and PLN 143 million depending on the assumptions. The final amount will be set by the Council of the Borrower Support Fund.

Given the above, the Bank expects the Bank's net income to be negative in the third quarter of 2022. Tier 1 capital ratios and total capital ratios at the Bank and mBank Group levels remain above minimum capital requirements.

The law also provides for a process leading to the replacement of the WIBOR interest rate with a new reference index. In the absence of more detailed information on the new reference index that will replace WIBOR, it is not possible to estimate the potential impact of the above changes in the future.
