2024 revenues from deposits on a good way back to 2020 level

Highlights

Higher long-term rates would support NII from modelled deposits

Higher short-term rates would benefit non-modelled deposits – stabilisation effects of deposit pricing while short-term rates stay low

Recent rate hike in PLN also not anticipated in Strategy 2024

Note: constant deposit volume assumed

Current development

The German economy has grown strongly again in the third quarter, as many service sectors continued to benefit from the extensive easing of the Corona restrictions.

By contrast, the economy is being held back by the continuing bottlenecks in supply chains. Because of this, many manufacturers have cut back their production despite a very good order situation.

As a result, many growth forecasts for this year have been lowered. We currently expect real GDP growth of 2.5%.

The situation on the labor market has improved until recently, with many companies creating new jobs again. However, despite a decline in recent months, the seasonally adjusted number of unemployed is still around 250 thousand higher than before the crisis. In addition, there are probably still a good 600 thousand people on short-time work.

Our expectation for 2021 and 2022

In the final quarter of 2021 and the first quarter of the coming year, the German economy at best is likely to only slightly expand:

  • As the recovery is well advanced in many service sectors, the respective growth rates are likely to return to normal. Some sectors are likely to suffer from the infection figures, which are expected to rise again, even though a renewed lockdown is unlikely.
  • The bottlenecks in the supply chains are likely to continue to weigh on industrial production.

From the spring of next year we expect the problems in the supply chains to be gradually overcome and infection figures to fall with the warmer temperatures. This should give the economy renewed momentum, especially as monetary and fiscal policy remain largely expansionary. For Germany, we expect growth of 4.8% in 2022.

One risk factor is the further development in China. Demand there is likely to weaken further in view of tighter monetary policy, thus slowing industrial activity worldwide.

  • Overall stable sector due to high proportion of food retailing and drugstores (food retailing with 10-15% non food revenues). Top 10 borrower units represent 59% of sector EaD
  • Retail industry: fierce predatory competition in all segments by price and investments in shop modernisation. Online is gaining market share at the expense of the stationary retailers. Since we see the customers of the future as "hybrid", omnichannel can be the answer to the concept question
  • In crisis: food retailing winner due to stay-at-home effect and lockdown of competitors in non food. Fashion: most severely affected. The failure of the Christmas, winter and Easter business hits this sub-segment hard. Home improvement/DIY/ Consumer electronics/Sports benefit from "cocooning impact", shift in consumer preferences and "home office"
  • After lockdown: all segments with promising development
  • Liquidity: still satisfactory
  • Future risks are rising prices for raw materials, energy and logistics costs, interruption of the supply chain and cyber risk attacks

  • Airlines (€ 2.0bn): Portfolio consists of €1.7bn secured aircraft financing and €0.3bn corporate exposure. Corona has hit the airline industry in an unprecedented extent. The crisis has a sustainable impact, but the general global trend for travel and mobility should be intact once the situation has improved. Full recovery is uncertain, but currently expected to take until 2024
  • Cruise liners (€0.8bn): After CDC lifted the no-sail order, cruise industry slowly restarted operations. The two industry leaders CCL and RCL are aiming to have 80% of their ships operating by the end of the year, NCL is expecting to have 66% running. The restart of the industry is causing increased ramp-up costs, which can be compensated with inflowing customer deposits for future cruises. The industry is expected to be at full capacity by mid 2022, which is underpinned by strong bookings for the upcoming season
  • Hotels (€0.7bn): Most hotels have reopened since lift of lockdown. Recovery is expected through: 1) implementation of 2G/3G-concept and 2) increasing vaccination rates. Return to pre-Corona level seems realistic for leisure hotels, while business hotels will suffer longer from negative Corona impact and existing project pipeline (oversupply)
  • Tour operators (€0.4bn): Mix of state support and use of KfW programs. Currently we see a slow restart of business. Achievement of pre-Corona level will take time

Automotive: Major share of complete automotive EaD is rated investment grade (84%).

  • Despite ongoing recovery of demand very challenging market environment, high backlog in vehicle production and temporary plant shutdowns, mainly due to global supply shortages for automotive semiconductors, other pre-products and raw materials, leading to modified call-off orders.
  • Vulnerable supply chains, rising material prices, increased freight rates and also energy costs are hitting profitability with significant impact on liquidity, mainly at car part supplier side. Requirements caused by strong transformation process (switch from combustion engine to e-mobility) are remaining meanwhile.
  • Overall disrupting impact on production process threatens recovery of automotive sector, return to pre-crisis level not expected before 2023.

Mechanical engineering: Overall stable sector due to highly diversified portfolio with different impact of Corona induced crisis on portfolio subgroups. Biggest subgroup Machine Tools representing less than 10% of all client groups and top 10 clients approx. 20% of EaD

  • Difficult market even before Corona in subsectors with high exposure to automotive sector but for sector as a whole no severe impact expected due to well-filled order books, improving order income in recent months and sufficient liquidity
  • Market environment recovered from Q4/2020 onwards. However, shortage of raw materials are having a negative impact on the overall sector and threaten recovery

IAS 19: Development of pension obligations

img-26.jpeg
Cumulated actuarial gains and losses (€m)

Explanation

Discount rate increased significantly versus start of the year (partly due to rising market yields, partly due to model change for discount rate), producing a YtD valuation gain in pension obligations. On the asset side, the LDI hedges experienced under-proportional losses due to rising market yields. In total positive net effect (after tax) of +€823m in YtD OCI.

The discount rate is derived from an AA rated government bond basket, re-calibrated on corporate bond level, with average duration of 18 years.

Funding ratio (plan assets vs. pension obligations) is 106% across all Group plans.

1) OCI effect driven by development of plan assets versus pension obligations, after tax, without minorities; cumulated since 1/1/2013 (new IAS19 standard) including possible restatements

2) Discount rate for pension plans in Germany (represent 87% of total pension obligations); model change for discount rate in Q1 2021

FX impact on CET1 ratio

QoQ Change in FX capital position

img-27.jpeg

Explanation

Only marginal negative impact on CET1 ratio¹: nearly stable currency translation reserve is overcompensated by slightly higher FX driven credit risk RWA

  • Slight increase in credit risk RWA from FX effects, mainly due to opposing effects between stronger USD, weaker PLN and nearly unchanged GBP
  • Nearly stable currency translation reserve due to opposite effects: stronger USD is offset by weaker PLN and nearly unchanged GBP (USD +€62m, PLN -€56m, GBP -€1m)
FX rates 06/21 09/21
EUR / GBP 0.858 0.861
EUR / PLN 4.520 4.620
EUR / USD 1.188 1.158

1) Based on current CET1 ratio

2) Change in Credit Risk RWA solely based on FX not on possible volume effects since 06/21

Disclaimer

This presentation contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts; they include, inter alia, statements about Commerzbank's beliefs and expectations and the assumptions underlying them. These statements are based on plans, estimates, projections and targets as they are currently available to the management of Commerzbank. Forward-looking statements therefore speak only as of the date they are made, and Commerzbank undertakes no obligation to update any of them in light of new information or future events. By their very nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. A number of important factors could therefore cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Such factors include, among others, the conditions in the financial markets in Germany, in Europe, in the United States and elsewhere from which Commerzbank derives a substantial portion of its revenues and in which it hold a substantial portion of its assets, the development of asset prices and market volatility, potential defaults of borrowers or trading counterparties, the implementation of its strategic initiatives and the reliability of its risk management policies.

In addition, this presentation contains financial and other information which has been derived from publicly available information disclosed by persons other than Commerzbank ("external data"). In particular, external data has been derived from industry and customer-related data and other calculations taken or derived from industry reports published by third parties, market research reports and commercial publications. Commercial publications generally state that the information they contain has originated from sources assumed to be reliable, but that the accuracy and completeness of such information is not guaranteed and that the calculations contained therein are based on a series of assumptions. The external data has not been independently verified by Commerzbank. Therefore, Commerzbank cannot assume any responsibility for the accuracy of the external data taken or derived from public sources.
