be read as an
introduction and

B.4 b Trend
information
Macroeconomic Conditions: The Bank's results of operations are
affected by the macroeconomic and market environment. Given the
nature of its business, the Bank is particularly susceptible to
macroeconomic and market conditions in Europe, which have
experienced disruptions in recent years.
While global economic conditions generally improved over the course
of 2012, growth prospects diverge for advanced and developing
economies in 2013 and going forward. In the Euro-zone, sovereign
spreads came down in 2012 from historically high levels, although
uncertainty remains over the solvability of certain sovereigns and the
extent to which E.U. member states are willing to provide additional
financing.
Legislation and Regulations Applicable to Financial Institutions:
The Bank is affected by legislation and regulations applicable to global
financial institutions, which are undergoing significant change in the
wake of the global financial crisis. New measures that have been
proposed and adopted include more stringent capital and liquidity
requirements, taxes on financial transactions, restrictions and taxes on
employee compensation, limits on commercial banking activities,
restrictions of types of financial products, increased internal control
and transparency requirements, more stringent business conduct
rules, mandatory reporting and clearing of derivative transactions,
requirements to mitigate risks relating to OTC derivatives and the

creation of new and strengthened regulatory bodies. New or proposed
measures that affect or will affect the Bank include the Basel 3 and
CRD4 prudential frameworks, the related requirements announced by
the EBA, the designation of the Bank as a systemically important
financial institution by the FSB, the French banking law, the E.U.
Liikanen proposal and the Federal Reserve's proposed framework for
the regulation of foreign banks.
B.5 Description of
the Group
BNPP is a European leading provider of banking and financial
services and has four domestic retail banking markets in Europe,
namely in Belgium, France, Italy and Luxembourg. It is present in 78
countries and has almost 190,000 employees, including over 145,000

revenues and profitability.
D.3 Key risks
regarding the
Notes
In addition to the risks relating to the Issuer (including the default risk)
that may affect the Issuer's ability to fulfil its obligations under the
Notes, there are certain factors which are material for the purposes of
assessing the market risks associated with Notes issued under the
Programme, including that the Notes are unsecured obligations, the
trading market for Notes may be volatile and may be adversely
impacted by many events, an active secondary market may never be
established or may be illiquid and that this may adversely affect the
value at which an investor may sell its Notes, investors may suffer a
partial or total loss of the amount of their investment, the Notes may
have a minimum trading amount and if, following the transfer of any
Notes, a Noteholder holds fewer Notes than the specified minimum
trading amount, such Noteholder will not be permitted to transfer their
remaining Notes prior to redemption without first purchasing enough
additional Notes in order to hold the minimum trading amount, the
Notes may be redeemed in the case of illegality or impracticability and
such cancellation or redemption may result in an investor not realising
a return on an investment in the Notes, the meetings of Holders
provisions permit defined majorities to bind all Holders, any judicial
decision or change to an administrative practice or change to English
law or French law, as applicable, after the date of the Base
Prospectus could materially adversely impact the value of any Notes
affected by it, a reduction in the rating, if any, accorded to outstanding
debt securities of the Issuer by a credit rating agency could result in a
reduction in the trading value of the Notes, certain conflicts of interest
may arise (see Element E.4 below).
D.6 Risk warning In the event of the insolvency of the Issuer or if it is otherwise unable
or unwilling to repay the Notes when repayment falls due, an investor
may lose all or part of his investment in the Notes.
