Section B - Issuer
| Element | Title | |
|---|---|---|
| B.1 | Legal and commercial name of the Issuer |
BNP Paribas ("BNPP" or the "Bank" or the "Issuer"). |
| B.2 | Domicile/ legal form/ legislation/ country of incorporation |
The Issuer was incorporated in France as a société anonyme under French law and licensed as a bank, having its head office at 16, boulevard des Italiens - 75009 Paris, France. |
| B.4b | Trend | Macroeconomic environment. |
| information | Macroeconomic and market conditions affect the Bank's results. The nature of the Bank's business makes it particularly sensitive to macroeconomic and market conditions in Europe, which have been at times challenging and volatile in recent years. |
|
| In 2015, the global economic economic activity remained sluggish. Activity slowed down in emerging countries, while a modest recovery continued in developed countries. The global outlook is still impacted by three major transitions: the dimished economic growth in China, the fall in prices of energy and other commodities, and an initial tightening of US monetary policy in a context of resilient internal recovery, while the central banks of several major developed countries are continuing to ease their monetary policies. For 2016, the IMF is forecasting the progressive recovery of global economic activity 1 but with low growth prospects on the medium term in developed and emerging countries. |
||
| In that context, two risks can be identified: | ||
| Financial instability due to the vulnerability of emerging countries | ||
| While the exposure of the BNP Paribas Group in emerging countries is limited, the vulnerability of these economies may generate disruptions in the global financial system that could affect the BNP Paribas Group and potentially alter its results. |
||
| In numerous emerging economies, an increase in foreign currency commitments was observed in 2015, while the levels of indebtedness (both in foreign and local currencies) are already high. Moreover, the prospects of a progressive hike in key rates in the United States (first rate increase decided by the Federal Reserve in December 2015), as well as heightened financial volatility linked to the concerns regarding growth in emerging countries, have contributed to the stiffening of external financial conditions, capital outflows, further currency depreciations in numerous emerging countries and an increase in risks for banks. This could lead to the downgrading of sovereign ratings. |
||
| Given the possible standardisation of risk premiums, there is a risk of global market disruptions (rise in risk premiums, erosion of confidence, decline in growth, postponement or slowdown in the harmonisation of monetary policies, drop in market liquidity, problem with the valuation of assets, shrinking of the credit offering, and chaotic de-leveraging) that would affect all banking institutions. |

| Systemic risks related to economic conditions and market liquidity | |
|---|---|
| The continuation of a situation with exceptionally low interest rates could promote excessive risk-taking by certain financial players: increase in the maturity of loans and assets held, less stringent loan granting policies, increase in leverage financing. |
|
| Some players (insurance companies, pension funds, asset managers, etc.) entail an increasingly systemic dimension and in the event of market turbulence (linked for instance to a sudden rise in interest rates and/or a sharp price correction) they may decide to unwind large positions in an environment of relatively weak market liquidity. |
|
| Such liquidity pressure could be exacerbated by the recent increase in the volume of assets under management placed with structures investing in illiquid assets. |
|
| Laws and regulations applicable to financial institutions. | |
| Recent and future changes in the laws and regulations applicable to financial institutions may have a significant impact on the Bank. Measures that were recently adopted or which are (or whose application measures are) still in draft format, that have or are likely to have an impact on the Bank notably include: |
|
| the structural reforms comprising the French banking law of 26 July 2013 requiring that banks create subsidiaries for or segregate "speculative" proprietary operations from their traditional retail banking activities, the "Volcker rule" in the US which restricts proprietary transactions, sponsorship and investment in private equity funds and hedge funds by US and foreign banks, and expected potential changes in Europe; |
|
| regulations governing capital: CRD IV/CRR the international standard for total loss-absorbing capacity ("TLAC") and the Bank's designation as a financial institution that is of systemic importance by the Financial Stability Board; |
|
| the European Single Supervisory Mechanism and the ordinance of 6 November 2014; |
|
| the Directive of 16 April 2014 related to deposit guarantee schemes and its delegation and implementing decrees, the Directive of 15 May 2014 establishing a Bank Recovery and Resolution framework, the Single Resolution Mechanism establishing the Single Resolution Council and the Single Resolution Fund; |
|
| the U Final Rule by the US Federal Reserve imposing tighter prudential rules on the US transactions of large foreign banks, notably the obligation to create a separate intermediary holding company in the US (capitalised and subject to regulation) to house their US subsidiaries; |
|
| the new rules for the regulation of over-the-counter derivative activities pursuant to Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, notably margin requirements for uncleared derivative products and the derivatives of securities traded by swap dealers, major swap participants, security-based swap dealers and major security- based swap participants, and the rules of the US Securities and Exchange Commission which require the registration of banks and major swap participants active on derivatives |
$\hat{\boldsymbol{\gamma}}$
| markets and transparency and reporting on derivative transactions; |
||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| the new MiFID and MiFIR, and European regulations governing the clearing of certain over-the-counter derivative products by centralised counterparties and the disclosure of securities financing transactions to centralised bodies. |
||||||
| Cyber risk | ||||||
| In recent years, financial institutions have been impacted by a number of cyber incidents, notably involving large-scale alterations of data which compromise the quality of financial information. This risk remains today and the Bank, like other banks, has taken measures to implement systems to deal with cyber attacks that could destroy or damage data and critical systems and hamper the smooth running of its operations. Moreover, the regulatory and supervisory authorities are taking initiatives to promote the exchange of information on cyber security and cyber criminality in order to improve the security of technological infrastructures and establish effective recovery plans |

Section D- Risks
| Element | Title | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| D.2 | Key risks regarding the Issuer |
Potential investors should have sufficient knowledge and experience in capital markets transactions and should be able to correctly assess the risks associated with Notes. Certain risk factors may affect the Issuer's ability to fulfil its obligations under the Notes, some of which are beyond its control. An investment in Notes presents certain risks that should be taken into account before any investment decision is made. In particular, the Issuer, together with the BNPP Group is exposed to the risks associated with its activities, as described below: |
|
| Eleven main categories of risk are inherent in BNPP's activities: | |||
| (1) | Credit Risk - Credit risk is the potential that a bank borrower or counterparty will fail to meet its obligations in accordance with agreed terms. The probability of default and the expected recovery on the loan or receivable in the event of default are key components of the credit quality assessment; |
||
| (2) | Counterparty Credit Risk - Counterparty credit risk is the credit risk embedded in payment or transactions between counterparties. Those transactions include bilateral contracts such as over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives contracts which potentially expose the Bank to the risk of counterparty default, as well as contracts settled through clearing houses. The amount of this risk may vary over time in line with changing market parameters which then impacts the replacement value of the relevant transactions or portfolio; |
||
| (3) | Securitisation - Securitisation means a transaction or scheme, whereby the credit risk associated with an exposure or pool of exposures is tranched, having the following characteristics: |
||
| payments made in the transaction or scheme are dependent upon the performance of the exposure or pool of exposures; |
|||
| the subordination οf tranches determines the distribution of losses during the life of the risk transfer. |
|||
| Any commitment (including derivatives and liquidity lines) granted to a securitisation operation must be treated as a securitisation exposure. Most of these commitments are held in the prudential banking book; |
|||
| (4) | Market Risk - Market risk is the risk of incurring a loss of value due to adverse trends in market prices or parameters, whether directly observable or not. |
||
| Observable market parameters include, but are not limited to, exchange rates, prices of securities and commodities (whether listed or obtained by reference to a similar asset), prices of derivatives, and other parameters that can be directly inferred from them, such as interest rates, credit spreads, volatilities and implied correlations or other similar parameters. |
| Non-observable factors are those based on working assumptions such as parameters contained in models or based on statistical or economic analyses, non-ascertainable in the market. |
|
|---|---|
| In fixed income trading books, credit instruments are valued on the basis of bond yields and credit spreads, which represent market parameters in the same way as interest rates or foreign exchange rates. The credit risk arising on the issuer of the debt instrument is therefore a component of market risk known as issuer risk. |
|
| Liquidity is an important component of market risk. In times of limited or no liquidity, instruments or goods may not be tradable or may not be tradable at their estimated value. This may arise, for example, due to low transaction volumes, legal restrictions or a strong imbalance between demand and supply for certain assets. |
|
| The market risk related to banking activities encompasses the risk of loss on equity holdings on the one hand, and the interest rate and foreign exchange risks stemming from banking intermediation activities on the other hand; |
|
| (5) | Operational Risk - Operational risk is the risk of incurring a loss due to inadequate or failed internal processes, or due to external events, whether deliberate, accidental or natural occurrences. Management of operational risk is based on an analysis of the "cause - event - effect" chain. |
| Internal processes giving rise to operational risk may involve employees and/or IT systems. External events include, but are not limited to floods, fire, earthquakes and terrorist Credit or market events such as default or attacks. fluctuations in value do not fall within the scope of operational risk. |
|
| Operational risk encompasses fraud, human resources risks, legal risks, non-compliance risks, tax risks, information system risks, conduct risks (risks related to the provision of inappropriate financial services), risk related to failures in operating processes, including loan procedures or model risks, as well as any potential financial implications resulting from the management of reputation risks; |
|
| (6) | Compliance and Reputation Risk - Compliance risk as defined in French regulations as the risk of legal, administrative or disciplinary sanctions, of significant financial loss or reputational damage that a bank may suffer as a result of failure to comply with national or European laws and regulations, codes of conduct and standards of good practice applicable to banking and financial activities, or instructions given by an executive body, particularly in application of guidelines issued by a supervisory body. |
| By definition, this risk is a sub-category of operational risk. However, as certain implications of compliance risk involve more than a purely financial loss and may actually damage the institution's reputation, the Bank treats compliance risk separately. |
$\cdot$
| Reputation risk is the risk of damaging the trust placed in a corporation by its customers, counterparties, suppliers, employees, shareholders, supervisors and any other stakeholder whose trust is an essential condition for the corporation to carry out its day-to-day operations. |
||
|---|---|---|
| Reputation risk is primarily contingent on all the other risks borne by the Bank |
||
| (7) | Concentration Risk - Concentration risk and its corollary, diversification effects, are embedded within each risk, especially for credit, market and operational risks using the correlation parameters taken into account by the corresponding risk models. |
|
| It is assessed at consolidated Group level and at financial conglomerate level; |
||
| (8) | Banking Book Interest Rate Risk - Banking book interest rate risk is the risk of incurring losses as a result of mismatches in interest rates, maturities and nature between assets and liabilities. For banking activities, this risk arises in non-trading portfolios and primarily relates to global interest rate risk; |
|
| (9) | Strategic and Business Risks - Strategic risk is the risk that the Bank's share price may fall because of its strategic decisions. |
|
| Business risk is the risk of incurring an operating loss due to a change in the economic environment leading to a decline in revenue coupled with insufficient cost-elasticity. |
||
| These two types of risk are, monitored by the Board of directors; |
||
| (10) | Liquidity Risk - In accordance with regulations, the liquidity risk is defined as the risk that a bank will be unable to honour its commitments or unwind or settle a position due to the situation on the market or idiosyncratic factors, within a given time frame and at a reasonable price or cost; and |
|
| (11) | Insurance Underwriting Risk - Insurance underwriting risk corresponds to the risk of a financial loss caused by an adverse trend in insurance claims. Depending on the type of insurance business (life, personal risk or annuities), this risk may be statistical, macroeconomic or behavioural, or may be related to public health issues or natural disasters. It is not the main risk factor arising in the life insurance business, where financial risks are predominant. |

| 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: |
| Market Risks | ||
| the Notes are unsecured obligations; | ||
| the trading price of the Notes is affected by a number of factors including, but not limited to, (in respect of Notes linked to an Underlying Reference) the price of the relevant Underlying Reference(s) and volatility and such factors mean that the trading price of the Notes may be below the Final Redemption Amount or value of the Entitlement; |
||
| exposure to the Underlying Reference in many cases will be achieved by the Issuer entering into hedging arrangements and, in respect of Notes linked to an Underlying Reference, potential investors are exposed to the performance of these hedging arrangements and events that may affect the hedging arrangements and consequently the occurrence of any of these events may affect the value of the Notes; |
||
| Noteholder Risks | ||
| 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 meetings of Noteholders provisions permit defined majorities to bind all Noteholders; |
||
| in certain circumstances Noteholders may lose the entire value of their investment; |
||
| Issuer Risk | ||
| 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); | ||
| Legal Risks | ||
| the occurrence of an additional disruption event or optional additional disruption event may lead to an adjustment to the Notes, or early redemption or may result in the amount payable on scheduled redemption being different from the amount expected to be paid at scheduled redemption and consequently the occurrence of an |
$\hat{\boldsymbol{\beta}}$
| additional disruption event and/or optional additional disruption event may have an adverse effect on the value or liquidity of the Notes;]= |
||
|---|---|---|
| the Notes may be redeemed in the case of illegality or impracticability and such redemption may result in an investor not realising a return on an investment in the Notes; |
||
| 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; |
||
| Secondary Market Risks | ||
| 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 trading market for Notes may be volatile and may be adversely impacted by many events; |
||
| Risks Relating to Underlying Reference Asset(s) | ||
| In addition, there are specific risks in relation to Notes which are linked to an Underlying Reference and an investment in such Notes will entail significant risks not associated with an investment in a conventional debt security. Risk factors in relation to Underlying Reference linked Notes include: |
||
| exposure to one or more index, adjustment events and market disruption or failure to open of an exchange which may have an adverse effect on the value and liquidity of the Notes |
||
| Risks Relating to Specific Types of Notes | ||
| The following risks are associated with SPS Notes | ||
| Auto-callable Notes | ||
| Investors may be exposed to a partial or total loss of their investment. The return on the Notes depends on the performance of the Underlying Reference(s) and the application of knock-in features. Auto-callable Notes include automatic early redemption mechanisms. If an automatic early redemption event occurs investors may be exposed to a partial loss of their investment. |
||
| 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. |
| In addition, investors may lose all or part of their investment in the Notes as a result of the terms and conditions of the Notes. |
