ΙΙ. Report of the Directors for the six months ended 30 June 2019
The directors present their report together with the accounts for the six months ended 30 June 2019 that have been reviewed by the Bank's external auditors.
The net profit attributable to Eurobank (or "the Bank") shareholders for the first half of 2019 amounted to €26m (first half 2018: €36m) as set out in the consolidated income statement on page 2.
In the first half of 2019, the Group, acting in an environment of positive growth rates both in Greece and the other countries, in which it has a substantial presence, demonstrated positive operating results, strengthened its capital base, improved further its liquidity position and reduced substantially the Non Performing Exposures (NPEs) stock in line with its NPE reduction acceleration plan.
As at 30 June 2019 total assets, including the impact from the merger with Grivalia and the acquisition of Piraeus Bank Bulgaria A.D. (PBB), increased to €62.4bn (Dec. 2018: €58.0bn). At the end of June 2019, following the classification of €2bn mortgage loans as held for sale (Pillar project, see section "NPE reduction acceleration plan"), gross customer loans reached €43.6bn (Dec. 2018: €45.0bn), of which €36.2bn in Greece (Dec. 2018: €38.6bn) and €7.4bn in International Operations, including €0.7bn from the acquisition of PBB (Dec. 2018: €6.4bn). Business (wholesale and small business) loans stood at €25.4bn (Dec. 2018: €24.8bn) and accounted for 58% of total Group loans, while loans to households reached €18.1bn (Dec. 2018: €20.2bn), with mortgage portfolio constituting 33% and consumer loans 9% of the total portfolio. Group deposits reached €41.3bn (Dec. 2018: €39.1bn) with deposits from Greek operations increasing by €0.8bn to €29.5bn, while International Operations added €1.5bn, of which €1.1bn from PBB, totalling €11.8bn. As a result, the (net) loan–to–deposit (L/D) ratio further improved to 87% for the Group (Dec. 2018: 93%) and to 97%3 for Greek operations (Dec. 2018: 103%). The Bank has eliminated the use of Emergency Liquidity Assistance (ELA) as of end January 2019, while at 30 June 2019 the funding from Eurosystem stood at €1.3bn (31 December 2018: €2.1bn, of which €0.5bn funding from ELA).
Within an improving but still challenging business environment, pre-provision Income (PPI) slightly decreased by 1.4% to €470m (first half of 2018: €477m) with the second quarter reaching €265m (second quarter 2018: €244m). Net interest income (NII) receded by 3.6% to €685m (first half of 2018: €711m), carrying the negative impact from the lower lending spreads in Greece partially offset by the positive effect from the decreased funding cost due to the elimination of dependency from the ELA mechanism and the higher NII from international operations. Net interest margin (NIM) stood at 2.28% (first half of 2018: 2.50%) with the second quarter reaching 2.26%. Fees and commissions increased by 13% to €156m (first half of 2018: €138m) positively affected by the higher rental income due to the merger with Grivalia in the second quarter of 2019 and the increased income from network activities. Core pre-provision income (Core PPI) was declined by 3.4% to €399m (first half 2018: €413m). Trading and other activities recorded €71m gain (first half of 2018: €64m gain), including a) €44m gains on the sale of bonds and equites portfolio and b) €30m gain on acquisition of PBB in June 2019. Operating expenses in Greece decreased by 1.1% to €340m (first half of 2018: €344m) or 2.2%2 on a like for like basis, following the reduction in the number of personnel. The Group's operating expenses increased by 1.3% amounting to €442m (first half of 2018: €436m) or decreased by 0.1%2 on a like for like basis. The cost to income (C/I) ratio for the Group reached 48.5% (first half of 2018: 47.8%), while the International Operations C/I ratio stood at 38.3%3 (first half of 2018: 43.0%3 ).
During the first half of 2019, the Group's NPEs were reduced by €2.4bn to €14.3bn (Dec. 2018: €16.7bn), mainly through of a securitization of residential mortgage loan portfolio classified as held for sale (Project Pillar, comprising €1.7bn NPEs) and the negative NPE formation amounting to €321m (first half of 2018: €409m negative), which drove the NPE ratio down by 783bps to 32.8% on y-o-y basis (first half of 2018: 40.7%, Dec. 2018: 37%). The loan provisions (charge) reached €348m or 1.90% of average net loans (first half of 2018: €337m or 1.87%) and the coverage ratio for NPEs stood at 54.5% (Dec. 2018: 53.2%).
1 Definitions of the Alternative Performance Measures (APMs) and other financial ratios/measures and the source of the financial data are provided in the Appendix.
2 For comparability purposes, the first half 2019 figure has been adjusted to exclude €3.8m and €6.1m expenses of Grivalia and PBB for Greece and Group respectively.
3 International Operations: Operating expenses: €102.3m, (first half of 2018: €92.6m), Operating income: €267m (first half of 2018: €215.6m). Greek operations: Loans and advances to customers (net) €28.7bn, Deposits €29.5bn.
The Group recognised in the first half of 2019 other impairment losses and provisions amounting to €17m (first half of 2018: €4m), of which €8m (first half of 2018: €10m) related to the impairment on real estate properties and €7m related to provisions for litigations and operational risk events. In addition, €42m cost has been recognised for a new Voluntary Exit Scheme (VES) launched by the Bank in May 2019, which has been offered to employees over an age limit as well as to employees of specific eligible Bank units independent of age. In respect of the VES that was initiated during the previous years, the Group recognised an additional cost of €13m in the first half of 2019. Finally, the Group recognized other restructuring costs amounting to €23m, of which €18m were associated with the acquisition of PBB.
Overall, in the first half of 2019, the Group showed resilient profitability, well supported by the steadily profitable International Operations, the improved fees and commissions income, the cost containment efforts and the effective NPEs management. Net profit from continuing operations, before €61m restructuring costs, after tax, amounted to €90m (first half of 2018: €113m) for the Group of which €95m (first half of 2018: €73m) was related to International business. The net profit attributable to shareholders amounted to €26m (first half of 2018: €36m). The capital position of Eurobank has been substantially strengthened with a) the merger with Grivalia completed in May 2019 and b) the increase in fair value of GGBs classified at FVOCI, as a result in the improvement of the credit spreads of Hellenic Republic debt. The Group's Total Regulatory Capital amounted to €7.6bn and accounted for 18.4% (total CAD) of Risk Weighted Assets (RWA) at the end of June 2019 (Dec. 2018: 16.7%). The Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) stood at 15.9% of RWA (Dec. 2018: 14.2%), while the fully loaded CET 1 (based on the full implementation of the Basel III rules in 2024) at the same date would be 13.7% (Dec. 2018: 11.3%).
Going forward, the Group, as the Greek economy (the Group's main market) shows signs of sustainable growth, is on track to achieve its objectives for 2019 including the successful execution of its transformation plan, in combination with the sustainable organic profitability based mainly on the following initiatives and actions:
On 26 November 2018, the Boards of Directors ("BoD") of the Bank and Grivalia Properties REIC ("Grivalia") announced that they unanimously decided to commence the merger of the two companies by absorption of Grivalia by Eurobank (the "Merger"). Grivalia was a real estate investment company under Law 2778/1999, as in force, incorporated in Greece. The business of Grivalia along with its subsidiaries and its joint ventures was the acquisition, management and leasing out of investment property portfolio located in Greece, Central Eastern Europe and Central America.
On 7 February 2019, the European Commission (DG Competition) decided that the Merger is in line with Eurobank's commitments and Stade Aid rules considering that the strengthening of its capital base through
the Merger will enable Eurobank to significantly reduce its non-performing loans in the near future. On 22 February 2019, the BoD of Eurobank and Grivalia approved the Draft Merger Agreement for the absorption of Grivalia by Eurobank according to the provisions of Greek laws 2166/1993 and 2515/1997, as in force, as well as the applicable Company Law. The proposed share exchange ratio was 15.80000000414930 new Eurobank ordinary registered shares for every 1 Grivalia ordinary registered share, while Eurobank shareholders retain the number of Eurobank ordinary shares they held before the Merger. Accordingly, with respect to the new share capital of Eurobank, 2,185,998,765 shares are allocated to the shareholders of Eurobank and 1,523,163,087 to the shareholders of Grivalia.
On 5 April 2019, the Extraordinary General Meeting of the shareholders of Eurobank resolved, among others (a) the approval of the Merger of the Bank with Grivalia by absorption of the latter by the former, (b) the approval of the Draft Merger Agreement, as it was approved by the BoD of the merging companies and (c) the increase of the share capital of the Bank by €197m.
The above Merger was accounted for as a business combination using the purchase method of accounting. The date on which the Shareholders General Meetings of both companies approved the merger, i.e. 5 April 2019 has been determined as the acquisition date as it is considered the date that Eurobank obtained control of Grivalia.
The consideration of the transaction amounting to €1,093.9m has been calculated as the fair value of the 1,523,163,087 Eurobank new ordinary shares with reference to Eurobank's share market price on the acquisition date (i.e. € 0.7185) less the fair value of the new Eurobank shares issued corresponding to the Grivalia shares held by the Bank's subsidiary ERB Equities. The difference between: (a) the total consideration of €1,093.9m and the fair value of the Group's previously held equity interest in Grivalia of €0.4m, and (b) the net identifiable assets acquired (provisional fair values of assets and liabilities) of €872m, results to the recognition of a temporary goodwill of €222m. The Merger enhances Eurobank's capital position and its earnings capacity, which in turn will enable the acceleration of its NPEs reduction plan. In addition, through the Merger the Group is allowed to deploy Grivalia's best in class real estate management skills to the Bank's real estate assets, in particular to its repossessed assets, which is critical for the management of NPEs. The results of Grivalia group operations are incorporated in the Group's financial statements prospectively as of 1 April 2019. The revenues from the investment property portfolio acquired from Grivalia group are presented within the line "Income from non banking services" of the income statement. The Merger was approved on 17 May 2019 by the Ministry of Finance and Development and was registered, on the same day, in the General Commercial Registry. The trading of the 1,523,163,087 new common voting shares of nominal value €0.23 each was initiated at Athens Exchange on 23 May 2019.
As a result of the Merger, Fairfax Group, which before the Merger held 18.40% and 54.02% in Eurobank and Grivalia, respectively, becomes the largest shareholder in the merged entity with a ca. 33.03% shareholding and is expected to have the ability to exercise significant influence over the Bank, subject to the required regulatory approvals in relation to the increase of its shareholding as a result of the merger (notes 31 and 32 to the consolidated financial statements).
On 22 February 2019, the BoD of Eurobank also approved the upcoming agreement (SLA), pursuant to article 100 of Greek Law 4548/2018, of the Bank with the company to be incorporated under the name "Grivalia Management Company SA" ("the Company"). The Company was established in March 2019 and is a related party to Eurobank, since a member of the Bank's BoD holds the majority (70%) of the shares of the company and is an executive member of the board of directors of the Company.
The Bank has concluded a 10-year advisory services agreement with the Company for the combined real estate portfolio of the merging entities, that came into force upon completion of the Merger. The related services that have been assigned to the Company under this agreement mainly refer to advisory services relating to the acquisition, transfer, lease, management development and strategic planning of the management of real estate assets, including the preparation of the annual budget and the supervision of Eurobank's contractors and advisors. Following a specific mandate, the Company will also undertake certain implementation actions. According to the SLA, total fees that will be charged by the Company based on cost and performance criteria, including a minimum service fee of €9.35m for the combined own used and
investment property portfolio and a fee related to repossessed assets, shall not exceed €12m (excluding VAT) per annum.
In 2019, the Group is implementing a new 3-year NPE reduction plan as submitted to SSM in March 2019, which has taken into account the Bank's Transformation Plan as announced in November 2018. In this context, following the completion of the merger with Grivalia, the Group has proceeded with the implementation of the below initiatives/actions:
Furthermore, the Bank also announced that it has entered into exclusive negotiations with the international investor for projects Cairo and Europe. Project Cairo refers to the sale of 20% of the mezzanine and junior notes of a securitization of a mixed assets portfolio of NPEs with a gross book value of ca. €7.5bn. Project Europe refers to the entry of a strategic investor into the share capital of FPS, the 100%-owned licensed loan servicer of Eurobank. FPS will enter into SLAs with the securitisation SPVs for the professional servicing of its loans and the maximization of the value for all its noteholders and the Group for the servicing of its remaining NPE portfolio. The exclusive negotiation period is expected to end by the end of September 2019.
c) On 28 June 2019, the BoD of the Bank ("The Demerged Entity") decided the initiation of the hive down process of the banking business sector of Eurobank and its transfer to a new company-credit institution that will be established ("the Beneficiary"). On 31 July 2019, the BoD of the Bank approved the Draft Demerger Deed through the aforementioned hive down and establishment of a new company-credit institution, pursuant to Article 16 of Law 2515/1997 and Articles 57 (3) and 59-74 of Law 4601/2019, as currently in force. In particular, the demerger will involve the hive-down of the banking business sector of Eurobank, to which the assets and the liabilities, as described on the transformation balance sheet of the hived-down sector as at 30 June 2019 ("Transformation Date"), are included. All actions that will take place after the Transformation Date and will concern the hived down sector shall be treated as occurring on behalf of the Beneficiary.
The Demerged Entity will maintain activities and assets that are not related to the main banking activities but are mainly related to the strategic planning of the administration of non-performing loans and the provision of services to the Group companies and third parties. Furthermore the Demerged Entity will retain: a) 95% of the mezzanine and junior notes of Projects Pillar and Cairo, (as per (a) above), b) the preferred securities (note 27 to the consolidated financial statements) and c) participations in certain subsidiaries including Be Business Exchanges S.A. and real estate companies related to projects Pillar and Cairo.
Upon completion of the demerger (i.e. the date of registration with the General Commercial Registry of the relevant approval by the competent Authority), the following shall take place: a) The Beneficiary will be incorporated and the Demerged Entity shall become the shareholder of the Beneficiary by acquiring all the shares issued by the Beneficiary and more specifically 3,683,244,830 common registered shares, of a nominal value of €1.10 each and b) the Beneficiary substitutes the Demerged Entity, by way of universal succession, to all the transferred assets and liabilities, as set out in the transformation balance sheet of the hived down sector and formed up to the completion of the demerger. As of August 9 2019,
the Draft Demerger Deed of the Bank, is available on its website as well as the website of the General Commercial Registry. The completion of the demerger is subject to the required by the Law approval of the General Meeting of the shareholders of the Bank as well as the receipt of all necessary approvals by the competent Authorities.
d) Furthermore, the Group will contemplate the potential sale of an additional 75% of mezzanine and junior notes and the transfer of SPV's shares to third party investors or their distribution to shareholders or any combination thereof.
The key benefits from the successful execution of the acceleration plan for NPE reduction will be a) focus on core banking activities, after the legal separation of the core and non-core operations of the Bank, b) the significant balance sheet de-risking, following the targeted de-recognition of a significant part of deep delinquency, denounced NPEs, retaining those that have better recovery and curing potential and c) the targeted NPE ratio reduction to 16% by the end of 2019, paving the way for a single digit NPE ratio by 2021. The completion of the Acceleration Plan, subject to the relevant approvals, is expected by the end of 2019.
Eurobank Group has a significant presence in four countries apart from Greece. It operates in Cyprus, where it provides Corporate Banking, Private Banking and Wealth Management services, and in Luxembourg, where it provides Private Banking services. In Bulgaria and Serbia, it operates in Retail and Corporate Banking, Wealth Management and Investment Banking through a network of 354 branches and business centres. Also, the subsidiary bank in Luxembourg operates a branch in London.
On 7 November 2018, the Bank announced that it has reached an agreement with Piraeus Bank S.A. for the acquisition of Piraeus Bank Bulgaria A.D. ("PBB"), a subsidiary of Piraeus Bank, by Eurobank's subsidiary in Bulgaria, Eurobank Bulgaria A.D. ("Postbank") (the "Transaction"). On 13 June 2019, the Transaction was concluded, following the receipt of the relevant regulatory approvals. In line with the Group's strategy to focus on the expansion of its international activities in markets which are deemed core, the Transaction strengthens Postbank's position in the Bulgarian banking market with a pro-forma market share in excess of 10%, ranking third in terms of total loans, and a strong capital adequacy and liquidity (note 31 to the consolidated financial statements).
The Group acknowledges that taking risks is an integral part of its operations in order to achieve its strategic and business objectives. Therefore, the Group's Management has established adequate mechanisms to identify and monitor these risks early in a timely manner and assesses their potential impact on meeting its corporate objectives.
Due to the fact that economic, industry, regulatory and operating conditions will continue to change, risk management mechanisms are set in a manner that enables the Group to identify and deal with the risks associated with those changes. The Bank's structure, internal processes and existing control mechanisms ensure both the independence principle and the exercise of sufficient supervision.
The Group's Management considers effective risk management as a top priority, as well as a major competitive advantage, for the organization. The Group's Management has allocated adequate means for updating its policies, methods and infrastructure, in order to ensure Group's compliance to the requirements of the ECB, the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM), the Single Resolution Mechanism (SRM), the guidelines of the EBA and the Basel Committee for banking supervision as well as with the best international banking practices. The Group implements a well-structured credit approval process, independent credit reviews and effective risk management policies for credit, market, liquidity and operational risk, both in Greece and in each country of its international operations. The risk management policies implemented by the Bank and its subsidiaries are reviewed annually.
The Group risk and capital strategy, which is formally documented, outlines the Group's overall direction regarding risk and capital management issues, the risk management mission and objectives, risk definitions, risk management principles, risk appetite framework, risk governance framework, strategic objectives and key management initiatives for the improvement of the risk management framework in place.
The maximum risk the Group is willing to undertake in order to pursue its strategic objectives is stipulated in an internal document, the Risk Appetite Framework (RAF), and is determined by means of quantitative and qualitative criteria/parameters, which also include specific tolerance levels, both in terms of each risk type and in overall. The main objectives that determine the risk appetite are complying with the regulatory requirements, safeguarding the Group's ability to smoothly continue its activities, and balancing a strong capital adequacy with high returns on equity. The RAF is communicated within the Group, and shapes its risk undertaking and management culture, forming the foundation on which risk policies and risk thresholds are established both overall and per business activity.
The Board Risk Committee (BRC) is a committee of the Board of Directors (BoD) and its task is to assist the BoD to ensure that the Group has a well-defined risk and capital strategy in line with its business plan and an adequate and robust risk appetite. The BRC assesses the Group's risk profile, monitors compliance with the approved risk appetite and risk tolerance levels, and ensures that the Group has developed an appropriate risk management framework with appropriate methodologies, modelling tools, data sources and sufficient and competent staff to identify, assess, monitor and mitigate risks. The BRC consists of six non-executive directors, meets at least on a monthly basis and reports to the BoD on a quarterly basis and on ad hoc instances if it is needed.
The Management Risk Committee (MRC) is a management committee established by the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) in 2016 and it operates as an advisory committee to the BRC. The main responsibility of the MRC is to oversee the risk management framework of the Group. As part of its responsibility, the MRC facilitates reporting to the BRC on the range of risk-related topics under its purview. The MRC ensures that material risks are identified and promptly escalated to the BRC and that the necessary policies and procedures are in place to prudently manage risks and to comply with regulatory requirements. Additionally, the MRC determines appropriate management actions which are discussed and presented to the Executive Board ("EXBO") for information and submitted to BRC for approval.
The Group's Risk Management General Division is headed by the Group Chief Risk Officer (GCRO), functions operates independently from the business units and is fully responsible for monitoring the credit, market, operational and liquidity risks. It comprises the Group Credit General Division, the Group Credit Control Sector (GCCS), the Group Credit Risk Capital Adequacy Control Sector (GCRCACS), the Group Model Validation & Governance Sector, the Group Market & Counterparty Risk Sector (GMCRS), the Group Operational Risk Sector, the Group Strategic Planning and Operations Unit and the Supervisory Relations and Resolution Planning Division (with dual reporting also to the Group Chief Financial Officer). In addition, it includes a Senior Advisor with direct reporting line to the GCRO.
The most important types of risk that are addressed by the risk management functions of the Group are:
The Group is exposed to credit risk, which is the risk that a counterparty will be unable to fulfil its payment obligations in full when due. The credit risk arises principally from the wholesale and retail lending activities of the Group, including from credit enhancements provided, such as financial guarantees and letters of credit, as well as from other activities, such as investments in debt securities, trading, capital markets and settlement activities. Taking into account that credit risk is the primary risk the Group is exposed to, it is very closely managed and monitored by centralized dedicated risk units, reporting to the GCRO.
The credit approval and credit review processes are centralised both in Greece and in the International operations. The segregation of duties ensures independence among executives responsible for the customer relationship, the approval process and the loan disbursement, as well as monitoring of the loan during its lifecycle. The credit approval process in Corporate Banking is centralised through establishment of Credit Committees with escalating Credit Approval Levels, in order to manage the corporate credit risk. Various rating models are used in order to determine the credit rating of corporate customers. The most significant ones are the MRA (Moody's Risk Analyst) applied for companies operating in industrial, commercial and tourist services and the slotting which is used for specialised lending portfolios (shipping, real estate and project finance).
The approval process for loans to Small Businesses (turnover up to €5m) is centralised following specific guidelines and applying the 'four-eyes' principle. The assessment is based on an analysis of the borrower's
financial position and statistical scorecards. The credit approval process for Individual Banking (consumer and mortgage loans) is also centralised and differentiated between performing and non-performing businesses. It is based on specialized credit scoring models and credit criteria taking into account the payment behavior, personal wealth and financial position of the borrowers, including the existence of real estate property, the type and quality of securities and other factors as well. The ongoing monitoring of the portfolio quality and of any other deviations that may arise, leads to an immediate adjustment of the credit policy and procedures, when deemed necessary. The quality of all of the Group's loans portfolios (business, consumer and mortgage in Greece and abroad) is monitored and assessed by the Group Credit Control Sector (GCCS). GCCS operates independently from all the business units of the Bank and reports directly to the GCRO.
The measurement, monitoring and reporting of the Group's exposure to counterparty risk, which is the risk of loss due to the customer's failure to meet its contractual obligations in the context of treasury activities, such as securities, derivatives, repos, reverse repos, interbank placings, etc. are performed by the Group Market and Counterparty Risk Sector (GMCRS). The Group sets limits on the level of counterparty risk that may be undertaken based mainly on the counterparty's credit rating, as provided by international rating agencies, and the product type (e.g. control limits on net open derivative positions by both amount and term, sovereign bonds exposure, asset backed securities). The utilization of the abovementioned limits, any excess of them, as well as the aggregate exposure per Group's entity, counterparty and product type are monitored by GMCRS on a daily basis.
The Group takes on exposure to market risk, which is the risk of potential financial loss due to an adverse change in market variables. Changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, credit spreads, equity prices and other relevant factors, such as the implied volatilities of the above, can affect the Group's income or the fair value of its financial instruments. The market risks the Group is exposed to are measured and monitored by GMCRS. GMCRS is responsible for the measurement, monitoring and reporting of the exposure on market risksincluding the interest rate risk in the Banking Book (IRRBB) of the Group. The Sector reports to the GCRO.
Market risk in Greece and Cyprus is measured and monitored using the Value at Risk (VaR) methodology. Market risk in International operations, excluding Cyprus, is managed and monitored using mainly sensitivity analyses. VaR is a methodology used in measuring financial risk by estimating the potential negative change in the market value of a portfolio at a given confidence level and over a specified time horizon. The VaR that the Group measures is an estimate based upon a 99% confidence level and a holding period of 1 day and the methodology used for the calculation is Monte Carlo simulation (full re-pricing of each position is applied). Since VaR constitutes an integral part of the Group's market risk control regime, VaR limits have been established for all (trading and investment portfolios) operations and actual exposure is reviewed daily by management. However, the use of this approach does not prevent losses outside of these limits in the event of extraordinary market movements.
The Group is exposed to daily calls on its available cash resources due to deposits withdrawals, maturity of medium or long term notes, maturity of secured or unsecured funding (interbank repos and money market takings), collateral revaluation as a result of market movements, loan draw-downs and forfeiture of guarantees. The Board Risk Committee sets liquidity limits to ensure that sufficient funds are available to meet such contingencies.
BRC role is to approve all strategic liquidity risk management decisions and monitor the quantitative and qualitative aspects of liquidity risk. Group Assets and Liabilities Committee (G-ALCO) has the mandate to form and implement the liquidity policies and guidelines in conformity with Group's risk appetite, and to review at least monthly the overall liquidity position of the Group. Group Treasury is responsible for the implementation of the Group's liquidity strategy, the daily management of the Group's liquidity and for the preparation and monitoring of the Group's liquidity budget, while GMCRS is responsible for measuring, monitoring and reporting the liquidity of the Group.
Operational risk is embedded in every business activity undertaken by the Group. The primary goal of operational risk management is to ensure the integrity of the Group's operations and its reputation by mitigating its impact. To best manage operational risk, the Group has established a formal Operational Risk
Management Framework to define its approach to identifying, assessing, managing, monitoring and reporting operational risk.
Governance responsibility for operational risk management stems from the Board of Directors (BoD) through the Executive Board and Senior Management to the Heads and staff of every business unit. The BoD establishes the mechanisms by which the Group manages operational risk by setting the tone and expectations from the top and delegating authority. The Board Risk Committee (BRC) and the Audit Committee (AC) monitor the operational risk level and profile of the Group including the level of operational losses, their frequency and severity.
The Group Chief Risk Officer is responsible for the operational risk related initiatives and ensures implementation of the Operational Risk Management Framework. The Group Chief Risk Officer has the overall responsibility and oversight of the Operational Risk Units in the countries that the Bank operates. The Operational Risk Committee is a management committee that assesses the operational risks arising from the activities of the Group, ensures that each business entity has appropriate policies and procedures for the control of its operational risk and that prompt corrective action is taken whenever a high risk area is identified. Certain business units have established a dedicated Anti-Fraud Unit or Function, according to the fraud risk to which their operations are exposed. Their main objective is to continuously identify fraud risks and to undertake all appropriate actions in addressing and mitigating those risks in a timely manner.
Further information on the Group's financial risk management objectives and policies, including the policy for hedging each major type of transaction for which hedge accounting is used is set out in the notes 2, 6 and 23 to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018.
A strategic priority for Eurobank remains the active and effective management of NPEs with the aim to substantially reduce the NPEs stock in accordance with its operational targets agreed with the supervisory authorities, leveraging on its internal infrastructure, the important legislative changes and the external partnerships that have taken or are expected to take place.
Following the Bank of Greece Executive Committee's Act No.42/30.5.2014 and its amendments, that details the supervisory directives for the administration of exposures in arrears and non-performing loans, the Bank has proceeded with a number of initiatives to adopt the regulatory requirements and empower the management of troubled assets. In particular, the Bank transformed its troubled assets operating model into a vertical organizational structure through the establishment of the Troubled Assets Committee (TAC) and Troubled Assets Group General Division (TAG). TAG structure is completely segregated from the Bank's business units both in terms of account management, as well as credit approval process, which ensures transparency, flexibility, better prioritization and management accountability and shifts the management from bad debt minimization to bad debt value management, in line with the Group's risk appetite. Further information is presented in note 6.2 to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018.
The targets of the operating model are to reinstate customers' solvency, reduce overall handling costs for delinquent accounts and improve the portfolio profitability by maintaining low portfolio delinquency rates and facilitating negotiations with delinquent customers. In order to ensure the efficient management of the troubled assets portfolio, more than 2,500 full-time equivalent employees are involved in NPLs management operations across the Bank, of whom ca 1,200 are dedicated professionals within the various TAG operating units. TAG, by employing best-in-class strategies, tools, technical resources and human capital, aims to significantly contribute to the Group's profitability, in a socially responsible manner. To this end, the main actions undertaken by TAG in the first half of 2019 were the following:
c) Further development of decision support systems in the context of managing the troubled portfolios that aim to improve decision making, facilitate the offering of optimum solutions and limit uncertainty.
d) Reinforcement of the key functions of the General Division in order to accommodate the new legislative developments towards the reduction of NPEs and to ensure the efficient management of the troubled assets portfolio.
In line with the national strategy for the reduction of NPEs, the Bank of Greece (BOG), in cooperation with the supervisory arm of the ECB, has designed an operational targets framework for NPEs management, supported by several key performance indicators. Pursuant to the said framework, the Greek banks submitted at the end of September 2016 a set of NPEs operational targets together with a detailed NPEs management strategy with a 3-year time horizon, which is henceforth revised annually in order to align with changes in the operating environment and the Bank's strategic priorities. Following the submissions of 2017 and 2018, Eurobank and all Greek systemic banks responded to the new regulatory framework and SSM requirements and submitted in March 2019 their new NPE management strategy for 2019-21, along with NPE stock annual targets at both bank and, for the first time, group level. Specifically for Eurobank, the new submission has taken into account the NPE reduction acceleration plan that was announced in the context of its transformation plan and aims to achieve a Group NPE ratio of ca. 16% in 2019 and a single digit by 2021. The mix of solutions to be used is differentiated versus the previous submission, involving mainly securitization of NPEs, as well as organic reduction, including collateral liquidations.
The Bank has fully embedded the NPEs strategy into its management processes and operational plan. The supervisory authority reviews the course to meeting the operational targets on a quarterly basis and might request additional corrective measures if deemed necessary.
A new protection scheme on primary residence was voted by the Greek Parliament in March 2019 (Law 4605/2019), which is expected to bolster the Banks' efforts to reduce NPEs through a more effective mechanism to work out troubled loans, a restriction of strategic defaulters and, ultimately, an improvement in payment discipline.
As mentioned in the note "Acceleration Plan for NPEs reduction and Hive down", in June 2019 the Bank entered into an agreement with an international investor on Project Pillar. Upon closing of the transaction and as a result of the notes' disposal, the Bank will transfer substantially all risks and rewards of ownership and will derecognize the loan portfolio. Consequently, as at 30 June 2019, the portfolio comprising loans with gross carrying amount of €1,987m, which carried an impairment allowance of €845m, has been classified as held for sale.
In addition, during the second quarter of 2019, the Bank has signed a binding agreement for the disposal of a non-performing corporate loans' portfolio. Accordingly, gross loans of €37m, which carried an impairment allowance of €29m were classified as held for sale, as their sale was considered highly probable.
The Third Economic Adjustment Program (TEAP) for Greece was concluded successfully on 20 August 2018. According to the European Commission, Greece received ca. €61.9bn out of the €86.0bn of the TEAP's financial envelope. The remaining €24.1bn were returned to the European Stability Mechanism (ESM) at the end of the TEAP. Following the successful conclusion of the TEAP in August 2018, Greece has entered into the Enhanced Surveillance (ES) with the European Commission according to Regulation (EU) No472/2013 which
foresees quarterly reviews. The first, second and third quarterly reviews under the ES were completed at the end of November 2018, early March 2019 and early June 2019 respectively. On 5 April 2019, the Eurogroup endorsed the release of the first set of policy-contingent debt measures of ca. €1.0bn including €0.4bn from the reduction of the step-up interest rate margin and €0.6bn from the "Securities Markets Program - Agreement on Net Financial Assets" (SMP-ANFA) income equivalent returns. The latter amount was disbursed to Greece in May 2019. The conclusion of the fourth review is expected in mid-September 2019.
Almost €11.0bn from the total of €61.9bn received were used for the creation of a cash buffer aiming to facilitate Greece's access to the international markets in the post program period. According to the ES, the cash buffer was at €24.3bn at the end of March 2019. The cash buffer including the cash reserves of the various general government entities was at €33.7bn according to the Greek Public Debt Management Agency (PDMA) and was enough for covering 4 years of gross financing needs under the assumption that the current stock of treasury bills(t-bills) will be rolled over or 2 year of gross financing needs after the end of the program under the assumption of the non-roll-over of the current stock of t-bills.
On 1 March 2019, Moody's upgraded the Greek sovereign rating from B3 to B1 on the basis of the improved economic performance, the ongoing implementation of the ES, the track of strong fiscal performance, the public debt sustainability after the implementation of the medium term debt relief measures in June 2018 and the recent re-established of market access. The sovereign's rating is still significantly below the investment grade rating but the ratings upgrades, the successful graduation from the TEAP, the conclusion of the three consecutive ES reviews and the developments in the fiscal front together with the new pro-reform government formed after the 7 July 2019 general elections, led to the improvement of the yield of the Greek 10-years bonds by ca. 235 basis points between the end of August 2018, just after the end of the TEAP, and 25 July 2019. On the back of this environment, the PDMA established market access with the successful issuance of a 5-year bond of €2.5bn at a yield of 3.6% on 29 January 2019, a 10-year bond of €2.5bn at a yield of 3.9% on 6 March 2019 and a 7-year bond of €2.5bn at a yield of 1.9% on 16 July 2019.
According to the Hellenic Statistical Authority (ELSTAT) data, in 2017 and 2018 real GDP growth rate turned positive, but lower compared to official sector forecasts, at 1.5% and 1.9% respectively. According to the Stability Program submitted by the Greek government to the European Commission in April 2019, the 2019 real GDP growth rate forecast is expected at 2.3%, conditional on the prompt ES implementation, ownership of reforms and a benign external environment. According to the recent European Commission's 2019 Summer Forecasts, real GDP growth in Greece is expected at 2.1% and 2.2% for 2019 and 2020 respectively.
On the fiscal front, according to the Ministry of Finance and on the basis of ELSTAT's first notification for the 2018 fiscal data, the primary surplus for 2018 was at 4.3% of GDP significantly above the respective ES target of 3.5% of GDP. The 2018 public debt was at 181.1% of GDP. According to the Stability Program the primary surplus for 2019 and 2020 is expected at 4.1% and 3.9% of GDP respectively. According to the European Commission's Spring forecasts, public debt for 2019 and 2020 is expected at 174.9% and 168.9% of GDP respectively. Under the ES baseline scenario, public debt is expected below 90% of GDP in 2060. The European Commission, in its 2018 Fiscal Stability Report (January 2019) expected – conditional on the continuation of the ES implementation – limited short term risks in terms of fiscal sustainability as a result of the structure of Greek debt (long maturities and high official sector ownership), the medium term debt relief measures decided on the 21 June 2018 Eurogroup, the primary surpluses achieved so far and the commitment of the Greek authorities to continue this performance.
Risks continue to surround the near-term domestic economic outlook. Based on ELSTAT data, the unemployment rate in April 2019 was at 17.6% from 19.8% in April 2018, pointing towards a slow path of decline, conditional on no unforeseen negative developments in the upcoming period. According to the Stability Program, the unemployment rate is expected at 17.8% in 2019 from 19.3% in 2018. According to ELSTAT, the harmonized index of consumer prices (HICP) in 2018 increased by 0.8% on an annual basis. Based on ELSTAT data, the HICP was at 0.2% in June 2019 from 1.0% in June 2018. On an annual basis, according to the European Commission's Summer forecasts the percentage change of HICP for 2019 and 2020 is expected to remain stable at 0.8%.
The ongoing deleveraging in the Greek economy can be considered as a major drag for recovery. According to the BoG data, i.e. in June 2019, the private sector domestic credit balance stood at €160.8bn from €178.5bn in June 2018, a decrease of -9.9%. A significant part of this deleveraging was due to the reduction of the stock
of NPEs. On the other side of the ledger, private sector domestic deposits amounted to €136.9bn in June 2019 from €129.4bn in June 2018, registering an increase of 5.8%.
Regarding the economic developments in the region, the national accounts second estimates of the first quarter of 2019 confirmed the positive picture illustrated by the flash estimates. Despite the anticipated slowdown of the Euroarea (EA-19) – the main trade partner - which would have a detrimental impact on the growth prospects, the broader Central, Eastern and South-eastern Europe (CESEE) group of economies turned out to be more resilient than initially expected on solid domestic demand dynamics. Furthermore, mounting global trade risks and the risk of higher commodity and global energy prices on top of the cyclical slowdown could have a more negative impact on the growth prospects of the broader CESEE region in late 2019-2020. However, the economies, in which the Group has a substantial presence, continue to be among the topperformers in European Union (EU-28).
At a country level, Bulgaria is expected to demonstrate another year of solid growth in 2019. In the first quarter 2019 real GDP growth accelerated to 3.5% year - on - year from 3.1% in 2018. The economy benefits from an improving labour market, a strong real wage growth, an accelerating credit activity, a more expansionary fiscal policy, an increased tourism flows and an improved EU-funds absorption. Meanwhile, the Exchange Rate Mechanism (ERM II) and the Banking Union application entry preparations are underway. Those include several commitments to strengthen banking supervision in close cooperation with the ECB, which will conduct a comprehensive assessment of six Bulgarian banks, to enhance the supervision of the non-banking financial sector, to address gaps in the insolvency framework, to strengthen the anti-money laundering framework and to improve the governance of state-owned enterprises.
The growth prospects in Cyprus are decelerating towards more sustainable levels in 2018-2019. According to preliminary estimates, GDP growth for the first quarter 2019 reached at 3.4% year - on - year lower than 3.9% in 2018. Economic activity is supported by sustained sentiment improvement, improved labour market conditions, further property market stabilization, the impact from fiscal relaxation and a number of ongoing residential and tourism infrastructure construction projects underpinned by the program "citizenship by investment". The liquidation of the Cyprus Co-operative Bank (CCB) and the sales of NPEs have driven the NPEs ratio to 30.3% in December 2018 from 43.7% in December 2017. Further progress in the issue of NPEs depends upon the implementation of the "ESTIA" plan, a subsidy scheme introduced by the government to help vulnerable groups of borrowers, and upon the reformed insolvency and foreclosures frameworks. In late April 2019, Cyprus proceeded with the issuance of a new 30 - year bond for the first time in its history at a relatively low yield demonstrating its uninterrupted funding capacity. Currently, only Moody's-among the major ratings agencies (Standard & Poor's, Fitch and DBRS)-rates Cyprus below investment grade (currently at Ba2).
Having expanded by 4.3% in 2018, the fastest rate in the last ten years, the economy of Serbia decelerated to 2.5% year - on - year in the first quarter 2019 and it is expected to decelerate to 3.5% in 2019, due to the negative base effects from the extraordinary performance of agriculture and energy sectors in the past year and external environment headwinds. Domestic demand is widely expected to remain the key driver of growth. Private consumption will most probably receive further support from the rise of disposable incomes as a result of the wage increases and pensions hikes. The planned increase in public investments together with the sustained performance of foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows will maintain total investments relatively strong. However, net exports will remain a drag. Moreover, the 30-month non-financial advisory in the form of "Policy Coordination Instrument" (PCI) that has been established by the IMF is broadly on track, enabling the country to continue structural and institutional reforms and providing a valuable policy anchor going forward. Finally, in June 2019 Serbia proceeded with the issuance of a new 10 year bond in Euro of €1bn for the first time in six years at a yield of 1.6%.
Regarding the outlook for the next 12 months, the main macroeconomic risks and uncertainties in Greece are associated with (a) the adherence to established reforms and the unimpeded implementation of the reforms and privatisations' agenda in order to meet the ES targets and milestones, (b) the impact on the level of economic activity and on the attraction of direct investments from the fiscal and social security-related measures agreed under the reviews of the TEAP and the ES (c) the ability to attract new investments in the country and (d) the geopolitical and macroeconomic conditions in the near or in broader region, including the impacts of a persistent low/negative rates' environment and the external shocks from a slowdown in the regional and / or global economy. Materialization of those risks would have potentially adverse effects on the
liquidity,solvency and profitability of the Greek banking sector. The Group monitors closely the developments in the Greek and regional macroeconomic environment taking into account its direct and indirect exposure to sovereign risk.
Specifically, concerning Brexit, under a no-deal scenario there will be no agreement between the United Kingdom (UK) and the EU on how their post exit trade relationship would evolve, there will be no transition period, and thus customs and regulatory controls would need to be applied immediately upon exit. The main risks for Greece stem a) from the external balance of goods and services between Greece and the UK and b) in terms of the EU budget impact i.e. if the UK exits the EU there might be a risk regarding the actual size of available funds for Greece.
On the other hand, the decisive implementation of the reforms agreed in the context of the ES, the mobilization of EU funding to support domestic investment and job creation, the attraction of foreign and domestic capital and the adoption of an extrovert economic development model will improve the confidence in the prospects of the Greek economy and the further stabilization of the domestic economic environment, which are necessary conditions for the return of the country to a strong and sustainable growth path.

On 5 April 2019, the Extraordinary General Meeting of the Bank's Shareholders approved the merger of the Bank with Grivalia by absorption of the latter by the former and resolved the increase of the share capital of the Bank by the amount of €164,848,663.17, which corresponded to the share capital of Grivalia, and by the amount of €32,458,933.29, derived from taxed profits for rounding reasons of the nominal value of the new common share of the Bank, which is amended from €0.30 to €0.23.

To the Shareholders of Eurobank Ergasias S.A.
We have reviewed the accompanying interim consolidated balance sheet of Eurobank Ergasias S.A. (the "Bank") as at 30 June 2019 and the related interim consolidated statements of Income and Comprehensive Income, Changes in Equity and Cash Flows for the six-month period then ended and the selected explanatory notes, which comprise the interim condensed financial information and which forms an integral part of the six-month financial report of articles 5 and 5a of Law 3556/2007. Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim condensed financial information in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union and specifically with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 "Interim Financial Reporting". Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim condensed financial information based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements (ISRE) 2410 "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity". A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, as incorporated in Greek Law, and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim condensed financial information as at 30 June 2019 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting".

Our review did not identify any material inconsistency or error in the statements of the members of the Board of Directors and in the information of the six-month financial report of the Board of Directors as defined in articles 5 and 5a of L. 3556/2007 in relation to the accompanying interim condensed financial information.

Eurobank Ergasias S.A. (the Bank) and its subsidiaries (the Group) are active in retail, corporate and private banking, asset management, treasury, capital markets and other services. The Bank is incorporated in Greece and its shares are listed on the Athens Stock Exchange. The Group operates mainly in Greece and in Central and Southeastern Europe.
These interim consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 28 August 2019. The Ιndependent Auditor's Report on Review of Interim Financial Information is included in the Section III of the Financial Report for the period ended 30 June 2019.
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' as adopted by the European Union (EU). The interim condensed financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018. Where necessary, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform with changes in presentation in the current period. Except as indicated, financial information presented in euro has been rounded to the nearest million.
The accounting policies and methods of computation in these interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018, except as described below.
The interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, as the Board of the Directors considered as appropriate, taking into consideration the following:
a) The Group operates in an environment of positive growth rates both in Greece and the other countries, in which it has a substantial presence. Specifically, in 2019, real GDP for Greece (Group's main market) is expected to grow by 2.1% according to the July 2019 forecast by European Commission (2018: 1.9%, according to the Hellenic Statistical Authority's (ELSTAT)). Based on ELSTAT and Ministry of Finance data, the unemployment rate in April 2019 was at 17.6% (April 2018: 19.8%) and the 2018 fiscal primary surplus was at 4.3% of GDP. The Stability Programme's fiscal primary surplus forecast for 2019 is at 4.1% of GDP.
Following the successful conclusion of the third economic adjustment program (TEAP) in August 2018, Greece has entered into the Enhanced Surveillance (ES), which foresees quarterly reviews. So far, Greece has completed the first three consecutive reviews, the last of them was completed in early June 2019. The conclusion of the fourth review is expected in mid-September 2019. On 5 April 2019, the Eurogroup endorsed the release of the first set of policy-contingent debt measures of € 970 million. In the first half of 2019, the Greek sovereign established market access with the successful issuance of a 5-year bond of € 2.5 bn at a yield of 3.6% on 29 January 2019, a 10-year bond of € 2.5 bn at a yield of 3.9% on 6 March 2019 and a 7-year bond of €2.5 bn at a yield of 1.9% on 16 July 2019.
Regarding the outlook for the next 12 months, the major macroeconomic risks and uncertainties in Greece are associated with (i) the adherence to established reforms and the unimpeded implementation of the reforms and privatisations' agenda in order to meet the ES targets and milestones, (ii) the impact on the level of economic activity and on the attraction of direct investments from the fiscal and social security-related measures agreed under the reviews of the TEAP and the ES, (iii) the ability to attract new investments in the country and (iv) the geopolitical and macroeconomic conditions in the near or in broader region, including the impacts of a persistent low/negative rates' environment and the external shocks from a slowdown in the regional and/ or global economy. Materialization of those risks would have potentially adverse effects on the liquidity, solvency and profitability of the Greek banking sector. The Group monitors closely the developments in the Greek and regional macroeconomic environment taking into account its direct and indirect exposure to sovereign risk.
b) The merger with Grivalia completed in May 2019 has further enhanced Eurobank's capital, leading the total CAD and the CET1 ratios to 18.4% and 15.9% respectively as at 30 June 2019. The net profit attributable to shareholders amounted to € 26 million (€ 90 million net profit from continuing operations before € 61 million restructuring costs, after tax) for the first half of 2019. Furthermore, the Bank has eliminated the use of ELA as of end January 2019. In the first half of 2019, the Group deposits have been

increased by € 2.2 bn (out of which € 1.1 bn is associated with the acquisition of Piraeus Bank Bulgaria) to € 41.3 bn (31 December 2018: € 39.1 bn), improving the Group's (net) loans to deposits (L/D) ratio to 86.5% as at 30 June 2019 (31 December 2018: 92.6%).
c) At the end of June 2019, the Bank reached a binding agreement for the sale of 95% of the mezzanine and junior notes of a securitization of a residential mortgage loan portfolio of ca. € 2 bn gross book value (project Pillar comprising primarily NPEs) which represents the second significant milestone of the Bank's frontloaded plan for derisking its balance sheet (note 15). As at 30 June 2019 and taking into account the above transaction, the Group NPEs at amortized cost have been reduced to € 14.3 bn, driving the NPE ratio to 32.8% (31 December 2018: 37%). Going forward, the Bank is in process of completing the next two steps of its plan, specifically, a) the sale of 20% of the mezzanine and junior notes of a securitization of a mixed assets portfolio of NPEs with a gross book value of ca. € 7.5 bn (Project Cairo) and b) the sale of a majority stake in Financial Planning Services S.A. (FPS), the licensed 100%-owned loan servicer of Eurobank (Project Europe) (note 24).
The Board of Directors, taking into account the above factors relating to the adequacy of the Group's capital and liquidity position as well as the progress that has been made in executing its NPE reduction acceleration plan, has been satisfied that the financial statements of the Group can be prepared on a going concern basis.
The following new standards, amendments to standards and new interpretations as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the IFRS Interpretations Committee (IC) and endorsed by the European Union (EU), apply from 1 January 2019:
The amendment changes IFRS 9 requirements in order to allow measurement of a financial asset at amortized cost or at FVOCI, depending on the business model, even in the case of prepayment options which could result in the party that triggers the early termination receiving compensation from the other party (negative compensation). Therefore, these financial assets can now be measured at amortised cost or at FVOCI, regardless of the event or circumstance that caused the early termination of the contract and irrespective of which party pays or receives reasonable compensation for the early termination. Applying IFRS 9 before the amendment would probably result in these financial assets failing the "Solely Payments of Principal and Interest" criterion and thus being measured at FVTPL.
The amendment also confirms the modification accounting of financial liabilities under IFRS 9. Specifically, when a financial liability measured at amortized cost is modified without this resulting in derecognition, a gain or loss, calculated as the difference between the original contractual cash flows and the modified cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate, should be recognized in profit or loss.
The adoption of the amendment had no impact on the Group's interim consolidated financial statements.
The interpretation clarifies the application of the recognition and measurement requirements in IAS 12 'Income Taxes' when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments. In such a circumstance, recognition and measurement of current or deferred tax asset or liability according to IAS 12 is based on taxable profit (tax loss), tax bases, unused tax losses and tax credits and tax rates determined applying IFRIC 23.
According to the interpretation, each uncertain tax treatment is considered separately or together as a group, depending on which approach better predicts the resolution of the uncertainty and the entity should assume that a tax authority with the right to examine tax treatments will examine them and will have full knowledge of all relevant information.
If an entity concludes it is probable that the taxation authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment, it should determine its accounting for income taxes consistently with that tax treatment. If it concludes that it is not probable that the treatment will be accepted, the effect of the uncertainty in its income tax accounting should be reflected in the period in which that determination is made, using the method that best predicts the resolution of the uncertainty (i.e. the single most likely amount, or the expected value method which follows a probability weighted approach).
Judgments and estimates made for the recognition and measurement of the effect of uncertain tax treatments should be reassessed whenever circumstances change or new information that affects those judgments arise (e.g. actions by the tax authority, evidence that it has taken a particular position in connection with a similar item or the expiry of its right to examine a particular tax treatment).

IFRS 16, which supersedes IAS 17 'Leases' and related interpretations, introduces a single, on-balance sheet lease accounting model for lessees, under which the classification of leases for a lessee, as either operating leases or finance leases, is eliminated and all leases are treated similarly to finance leases under IAS 17.
The definition of a lease under IFRS 16 mainly relates to the concept of control. The new standard distinguishes between leases and service contracts on the basis of whether the use of an identified asset is controlled by the customer. Control is considered to exist if the customer has:
The right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of an identified asset; and
The right to direct the use of that asset.
IFRS 16 provides for the recognition of a 'right-of-use-asset' and a 'lease liability' upon lease commencement in case that there is a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys to the lessee the right to use an asset for a period of time in exchange for a consideration.
The right-of-use-asset is, initially, measured at cost, consisting of the amount of the lease liability, plus any lease payments made to the lessor at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received, the initial estimate of restoration costs and any initial direct costs incurred by the lessee and, subsequently, at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. The lease liability is initially recognized at an amount equal to the present value of the lease payments during the lease term that are not yet paid.
Consequently, the typical straight line operating lease expense of operating leases under IAS 17 is replaced by the depreciation charge of the 'right-of-use-asset' and the interest expense on the 'lease liability'. The recognition of assets and liabilities by lessees, as described above, is not required for certain short term leases and leases of low value assets. The accounting treatment for lessors is not substantially affected by the requirements of IFRS 16.
The Group implemented the requirements of IFRS 16 on 1 January 2019. The Group has chosen the modified retrospective application of IFRS 16 and therefore comparative information was not restated.
Upon transition, the Group adopted the practical expedient available on transition to IFRS 16 not to reassess whether a contract is or contains a lease. Accordingly, existing contracts previously classified as service contracts such as ATMs, APSs and printing services were not classified as leases under IFRS 16, while the definition set out in IFRS 16 is applied to all lease contracts entered into or modified on or after 1 January 2019.
In accordance with IFRS 16, at the commencement date of the lease, the Group as a lessee recognises right-of-use assets and lease liabilities in the statement of financial position, initially measured at the present value of the future lease payments.
The Group applied this initial measurement principle to all leases, except for those with a lease term of 12 months or less, and leases of low value (i.e. less than € 5,000) - making use of the relevant short-term leases and leases of low-value assets exemptions. The Group also adopted the practical expedient not to separate non-lease components from lease components.
In applying the modified retrospective transition approach, the Group used the following main estimates and judgments:
On 1 January 2019, the Group recognised right-of-use assets of € 358 million and lease liabilities of an equivalent amount arising from leases of properties and vehicles, with no impact on shareholders' equity. The capital impact arising primarily from the increase in risk-weighted assets was a reduction of approximately 13 bps on the Group's common equity Tier I ratio by applying regulatory transitional arrangements (approximately -10 bps on the Group's CET1 ratio, on a fully loaded basis).
It is noted that € 132 million of the above mentioned right-of-use assets and of the corresponding lease liabilities are related to properties on lease from Grivalia. Following the merger of Eurobank with Grivalia (note 31), these assets and liabilities have been derecognized in the second quarter of 2019, as the related properties have become own used assets of the combined group.
With regard to subsequent measurement, the Group, acting as a lessee, applies the cost model for the measurement of right-of-use asset. Accordingly, the right-of-use asset is measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses as determined in accordance with IAS 36, and is adjusted for the remeasurement of the lease liability.
On the other hand, interest expense is recognized on the lease liabilities, while their carrying amount is reduced to reflect the lease payments made. In case of any reassessments or lease modifications specified, the carrying amount of the lease liabilities is remeasured to reflect revised lease payments. For the period ended 30 June 2019, the depreciation charge for right-of-use assets was € 21 million and the interest expense recognised on lease liabilities was € 3 million.
The following table presents the reconciliation between the operating lease commitments, as disclosed under IAS 17 in the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018 and the lease liabilities recognised under IFRS 16:
| € million | |
|---|---|
| Non-cancellable operating lease rentals payable under IAS 17 | 134 |
| Plus: Future contractual lease payments (in excess of non-cancellable term) | 206 |
| Total future contractual operating lease payments | 340 |
| Plus: Re-estimation of lease term (1) | 109 |
| Adjusted total operating lease commitments as at 31 December 2018 | 449 |
| Less: Recognition exemption for short term leases and leases of low value | (5) |
| Less: Exclusion of Stamp Duty, VAT and other applicable taxes from the lease payments | (20) |
| Undiscounted lease liabilities as at 31 December 2018 | 424 |
| Less: Discounting effect of the lease liabilities using the incremental borrowing | |
| rate as at 1 January 2019 | (66) |
| Total lease liabilities recognised as at 1 January 2019 under IFRS 16 | 358 |
(1) The re-estimation of total future contractual lease payments includes primarily:
There was no impact from the adoption of IFRS 16 for the leases in which the Group is a lessor.
When the Group becomes the lessee in a lease arrangement, it recognizes a lease liability and a corresponding right-of-use (RoU) asset at the commencement of the lease term when the Group acquires control of the physical use of the asset.
Lease liabilities are presented within Other liabilities and RoU assets within Property, plant and equipment. Lease liabilities are measured based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term, discounted using an incremental borrowing rate. The interest expense on lease liabilities is presented within Net interest income.
The RoU asset is initially recorded at an amount equal to the lease liability and is adjusted for rent prepayments, initial direct costs, or lease incentives received. Subsequently, the RoU asset is depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or the useful life of the underlying asset, with the depreciation presented within Operating expenses.
When a lease contains extension or termination options that the Group considers reasonably certain to be exercised, the expected future lease payments or costs of early termination are included within the lease payments used to calculate the lease liability.
(ii) Accounting for leases as lessor


At commencement date, the Group derecognizes the carrying amount of the underlying assets held under finance lease, recognizes a receivable at an amount equal to the net investment in the lease and recognizes, in profit or loss, any profit or loss from the derecognition of the asset and the recognition of the net investment. The net investment in the lease is calculated as the present value of the future lease payments in the same way as for the lessee.
After commencement date, the Group recognizes finance income over the lease term, based on a pattern reflecting a constant periodic rate of return on the lessor's net investment in the lease. The Group also recognizes income from variable payments that are not included in the net investment in the lease. After lease commencement, the net investment in a lease is not remeasured unless the lease is modified or the lease term is revised.
The Group continues to recognize the underlying asset and does not recognize a net investment in the lease on the balance sheet or initial profit (if any) on the income statement.
The Group recognizes lease payments as income on a straight-line basis. Also it recognizes costs, including depreciation, incurred in earning the lease income as an expense. The Group adds initial direct costs incurred in obtaining an operating lease to the carrying amount of the underlying asset and recognizes those costs as an expense over the lease term on the same basis as the lease income.
The Group, acting as a lessee, may enter into arrangements to sublease a leased asset to a third party while the original lease contract is in effect. The Group acts as both the lessee and lessor of the same underlying asset. The sublease is a separate lease agreement, in which the intermediate lessor classifies the sublease as a finance lease or an operating lease as follows:
The amendment clarifies that IFRS 9 'Financial Instruments' including its impairment requirements, applies to long-term interests in associates or joint ventures that form part of the entity's net investment in the associate or joint venture but are not accounted for using equity accounting.
According to the amendment, an entity should not take into account any adjustments to the carrying amount of long-term interests (net investment in the associate or joint venture), resulting from the application of IAS 28 'Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures' when applying IFRS 9.
The adoption of the amendment had no impact on the Group's interim consolidated financial statements.
The amendment clarifies that when a change to a defined benefit plan i.e. an amendment, curtailment or settlement takes place and a remeasurement of the net defined benefit liability or asset is required, the updated actuarial assumptions from the remeasurement should be used to determine current service cost and net interest for the remainder of the reporting period after the change to the plan. Additionally, the amendment includes clarifications about the effect of a plan amendment, curtailment or settlement on the requirements regarding the asset ceiling. The amendment applies prospectively to plan amendments, curtailments or settlements that occur on or after the adoption date 1 January 2019.
The adoption of the amendment had no impact on the Group's interim consolidated financial statements.

The improvements introduce key changes to several standards as set out below:
The amendments to IFRS 3 'Business Combinations' and IFRS 11 'Joint Arrangements' clarified how an entity accounts for increasing its interest in a joint operation that meets the definition of a business. Specifically, when an entity obtains control of a business that is a joint operation, then the transaction constitutes a business combination achieved in stages and the acquiring party re-measures the entire previously held interest in the assets and liabilities of the joint operation at fair value. Conversely, if a party obtains joint control, of a business that is a joint operation then the previously held interest is not re-measured.
The improvement to IAS 12 'Income Taxes' clarified that all income tax consequences of dividends, including payments on financial instruments classified as equity, should be recognized in profit or loss, other comprehensive income or equity, according to where the originating transaction or event that generated distributable profits giving rise to the dividend, was recognized.
IAS 23 'Borrowing costs' amendment clarified that any borrowing originally performed to develop a qualifying asset should be treated as part of the funds that the entity borrowed generally, when substantially all of the activities necessary to prepare that asset for its intended use or sale are complete.
The adoption of the amendments had no impact on the Group's interim consolidated financial statements.
In preparing these interim consolidated financial statements, the significant estimates, judgments and assumptions made by Management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018, except for the accounting judgments that relate to the changes in accounting policies described in note 2, as a result of IFRS 16 adoption.
Further information about the key assumptions and sources of estimation uncertainty are set out in notes 12, 13, 15, 25, 28, 30 and 31.
The Group's capital adequacy position is presented in the following table:

Note: The Group's CET1 as at 30 June 2019, based on the full implementation of the Basel III rules in 2024 (fully loaded CET1), would be 13.7% (31 December 2018: 11.3%).

The Group has sought to maintain an actively managed capital base to cover risks inherent in the business. The adequacy of the Group's capital is monitored using, among other measures, the rules and ratios established by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BIS rules/ratios) as adopted by the European Central Bank and the Bank of Greece in supervising the Bank. The capital adequacy framework, as in force, was incorporated in the European Union (EU) legislation through the Directive 2013/36/EU (known as CRD IV), along with the Regulation No 575/2013/EU (known as CRR). Directive 2013/36/EU was transposed into Greek legislation by Law 4261/2014. Supplementary to that, in the context of Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP), the Group considers a broader range of risk types and the Group's risk management capabilities. ICAAP aims ultimately to ensure that the Group has sufficient capital to cover all material risks that it is exposed to, over a three-year horizon.
Based on Council Regulation No 1024/2013, the European Central Bank (ECB) conducts annually a Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP) in order to define the prudential requirements of the institutions under its supervision. The key purpose of the SREP is to ensure that institutions have adequate arrangements, strategies, processes and mechanisms as well as capital and liquidity to ensure a sound management and coverage of their risks, to which they are or might be exposed, including those revealed by stress testing and risks the institution may pose to the financial system. According to the 2018 SREP decision, starting from 1 March 2019, the Bank is required to meet on a consolidated basis a Common Equity Tier 1 ratio of at least 10.25% and a Total Capital Adequacy Ratio of at least 13.75% (Overall Capital Requirements including the Capital Conservation Buffer and the Other Systemically Important Institutions Buffer).
Management has determined the operating segments based on the internal reports reviewed by the Strategic Planning Committee that are used to allocate resources and to assess their performance in order to make strategic decisions. The Strategic Planning Committee considers the business both from a business unit and geographic perspective. Geographically, management considers the performance of its business in Greece and other countries in Europe (International). Greece is further segregated into retail, corporate, wealth management, global and capital markets and, as of the second quarter 2019, investment property. International is monitored and reviewed on a country basis. The Group aggregates segments when they exhibit similar economic characteristics and profile and are expected to have similar long-term economic development.
The Group is organized in the following reportable segments:
Other operations of the Group refer mainly to property management (including repossessed assets) and other investing activities.
The Group's management reporting is based on International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU. The accounting policies of the Group's operating segments are the same with those described in the principal accounting policies.
Revenues from transactions between business segments are allocated on a mutually agreed basis at rates that approximate market prices.

(1) The impairment allowance for POCI loans is included in 'Lifetime ECL credit-impaired' stage.
(2) It represents the impairment allowance of loans sold, modified (where the modification resulted in a derecognition) and those that have been reclassified as held for sale (impairment allowance of € 874 million, note 15) during the period.
(3) As of 1 January 2018, the impairment allowance for credit related commitments (off balance sheet items) is monitored separately from the impairment allowance on loans and advances to customers and accordingly is presented within other liabilities (note 25).
The impairment losses relating to loans and advances to customers recognized in the Group's income statement for the period ended 30 June 2019 amounted to € 348 million (30 June 2018: € 337 million) and are analyzed as follows:

In the first half of 2019, the Group recognized restructuring costs amounting to € 23 million, of which € 18 million was related with the acquisition of Piraeus Bank Bulgaria A.D. (note 31). The remaining restructuring costs mainly relate to the Bank's transformation plan. In the first half of 2018, the Group recognized restructuring costs amounting to € 4 million mainly related with the optimization of its lending operations.

For the year 2019, according to Law 4172/2013 currently in force, the nominal Greek corporate tax rate for credit institutions is 29%, while for the other legal entities is 28% (for the year 2018: 29% corporate tax rate for all legal entities). According to article 23 of Law 4579/2018, which was enacted in December 2018 and amended Law 4172/2013, the Greek corporate tax rate for legal entities other than credit institutions will decrease annually by 1% for each of the next four years starting from 2019, resulting to 25% for the year 2022 and onwards. In addition, dividends distributed as of 1 January 2019 other than intragroup dividends, which under certain preconditions are relieved from both income and withholding tax, are subject to 10% withholding tax.
Further to the information provided in note 15 of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018, law 4605/2019 (article 93) voted on 29 March 2019 provided clarifications regarding the treatment of the Bank's withholding tax amounts under Law 2238/1994 (i.e. € 4 million for the year 2008 and € 46 million for the year 2012) in a manner that safeguards the said tax amounts by providing for their offsetting with the Bank's corporate income tax whenever this becomes due.
Law 4605/2019 further addresses the treatment of tax receivables of Law 4046/2012 (for years 2010, 2011 and 2012), which provides for a five year settlement of tax withheld on interest from GGBs/Tbills/corporate bonds with the Greek State's guarantee against the banks' corporate income tax. Law 4605/2019 clarified that any remaining amounts (i.e. not offsettable withholding taxes within the set five year period) will be then offset against all taxes within ten years in equal installments starting from 1 January 2020. The said Law clarification addresses the treatment of the Bank's receivable of € 13 million arising in 2012 from tax withheld on interest from Greek sovereign bonds, Greek T-bills and corporate bonds with Greek State guarantee.
The Bank and its subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, which operate in Greece (notes 17 and 18) have in principle 1 to 6 open tax years. For the open tax years 2013-2015 the Bank and the Group's Greek companies whose annual financial statements were audited compulsorily, were required to obtain an 'Annual Tax Certificate' pursuant to the Law 4174/2013, which is issued after a tax audit is performed by the same statutory auditor or audit firm that audits the annual financial statements. For fiscal years starting from 1 January 2016 and onwards, the 'Annual Tax Certificate' is optional, however, the Bank and (as a general rule) the Group's Greek companies will continue to obtain such certificate.
The Bank has obtained by external auditors unqualified tax certificates for the open tax years 2013-2017. For the year ended 31 December 2018, the tax audit from external auditors is in progress. In addition, New TT Hellenic Postbank and New Proton Bank, which were merged with the Bank in 2013, have obtained by external auditors unqualified tax certificates with a matter of emphasis for their unaudited by tax authorities periods/tax years 18/1-30/6/2013 and 9/10/2011-31/12/2012, respectively, with regards to potential tax obligations resulting from their carve out. For both cases the Bank has formed adequate provisions.
The tax certificates, which have been obtained by the Bank's subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, which operate in Greece, are unqualified for the open tax years 2013-2017. For the year ended 31 December 2018, the tax audits from external auditors are in progress.
In accordance with the Greek tax legislation and the respective Ministerial Decisions issued, additional taxes and penalties may be imposed by the Greek tax authorities following a tax audit within the applicable statute of limitations (i.e. in principle five years as from the end of the fiscal year within which the relevant tax return should have been submitted), irrespective of whether an unqualified tax certificate has been obtained from the tax paying company. In light of the above, as a general rule, the right of the Greek State to impose taxes up to tax year 2012 (included) has been time-barred for the Bank and the Group's Greek companies at 31 December 2018.
The open tax years of the foreign banking entities of the Group are as follows: (a) Eurobank Cyprus Ltd, 2014-2018, (b) Eurobank Bulgaria A.D., 2013-2018, (c) Eurobank A.D. Beograd (Serbia), 2013-2018, and (d) Eurobank Private Bank Luxembourg S.A., 2014-2018. The remaining foreign entities of the Group (notes 17 and 18), which operate in countries where a statutory tax audit is explicitly stipulated by law, have 1 to 6 open tax years in principle, subject to certain preconditions of the applicable tax legislation of each jurisdiction.
Deferred taxes are calculated on all deductible temporary differences under the liability method as well as for unused tax losses at the rate in effect at the time the reversal is expected to take place.
The movement on deferred tax is as follows:

|---|---|---|
| 2019 | 2018 | |
| € million | € million | |
| Impairment/ valuation relating to loans and accounting write-offs | 1,481 | 3,132 |

| Net deferred tax | 4,847 | 4,912 |
In the second quarter of 2019, the Bank proceeded with the securitization of certain loan portfolios (Project Pillar and Cairo, note 24). Based on the contractual terms of the issued notes, the related impairment losses were considered as crystalized for tax purposes, resulting in the significant increase of the deferred tax on the above presented category "Losses from disposals and crystallised writeoffs of loans" against a decrease in the category "Impairment/valuation relating to loans and accounting write-offs".
The net deferred tax is analyzed as follows:
| 30 June | 31 December | |
|---|---|---|
| 2019 | 2018 | |
| € million | € million | |
| Deferred tax assets | 4,861 | 4,916 |
| Deferred tax liabilities | (14) | (4) |
| Net deferred tax | 4,847 | 4,912 |

As at 30 June 2019, the Group recognised a deferred tax liability of € 11 million on the taxable temporary differences associated with its investment in the newly acquired subsidiary "Piraeus Bank Bulgaria A.D." (PBB) (note 31) considering the planned merger of the entity with its banking subsidiary in Bulgaria "Eurobank Bulgaria A.D.". In addition, the Group recognised a deferred tax asset of € 8 million arising from the fair value measurement of the PBB's assets acquired.
Deferred income tax (charge)/credit from continuing operations is attributable to the following items:
| 30 June | 30 June | |
|---|---|---|
| 2019 | 2018 | |
| € million | € million | |
| Impairment/ valuation relating to loans, disposals and write-offs | 97 | 20 |
| Unused tax losses | (60) | 62 |
| Tax deductible PSI+ losses | (25) | (25) |
| Change in fair value and other temporary differences | 8 | (62) |
| Deferred income tax (charge)/credit from continuing operations | 20 | (5) |
As at 30 June 2019, the Group recognized net deferred tax assets amounting to € 4.8 bn as follows:
The recognition of the above presented deferred tax assets is based on management's assessment, as at 30 June 2019, that the Group's legal entities will have sufficient future taxable profits, against which the unused tax losses, the deductible temporary differences, as well as the losses from PSI+ and the Greek state's debt buyback program can be utilized. The deferred tax assets are determined on the basis of the tax treatment of each deferred tax asset category, as provided by the applicable tax legislation of each jurisdiction, the eligibility of carried forward losses for offsetting with future taxable profits, the actual tax results for the year ended 31 December 2018 and the extrapolated tax results for the year ended 31 December 2019 using the actual tax results for the period ended 30 June 2019. Additionally, the Group's assessment on the recoverability of recognized deferred tax assets is based on (a) the future performance expectations (projections of operating results) and growth opportunities relevant for determining the expected future taxable profits, (b) the expected timing of reversal of the deductible and taxable temporary differences, (c) the probability that the Group entities will have sufficient taxable profits in the future, in the same period as the reversal of the deductible and taxable temporary differences (i.e. profits/ losses on sale of investments or other assets, etc.) or in the years into which the tax losses can be carried forward, and (d) the historical levels of Group entities' performance in combination with the previous years' tax losses caused by one off or non-recurring events.

For the period ended 30 June 2019, the Group has conducted a deferred tax asset (DTA) recoverability assessment based on its threeyear Business Plan that was approved by the Board of Directors in March 2019 and provided outlook of its profitability and capital position for the period up to the end of 2021, taking into consideration the progress in the implementation of the steps/transactions indicated in the Acceleration Plan. The said Business Plan has also been submitted to the Hellenic Financial Stability Fund (HFSF) and to the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM).
For the years beyond 2021, the forecast of operating results was based on the management projections considering the growth opportunities of the Greek economy, the banking sector and the Group itself.
The level of the abovementioned projections adopted in the Group's Business Plan is mainly based on assumptions and estimates regarding (a) the further reduction of its funding cost driven by the gradual repatriation of customer deposits replacing more expensive funding sources, (b) the lower loan impairment losses as a result of the gradual improvement of the macroeconomic conditions in Greece and the strategic initiatives for the accelerated reduction of Non-Performing Exposures (NPEs), in line with the NPEs strategy that the Group has committed to the SSM, (c) the merger with Grivalia Properties R.E.I.C, the acquisition of Piraeus Bank Bulgaria A.D. ('PBB') and the disposal of 80% stake of Financial Planning Services S.A. ('FPS'), (d) the effectiveness of the continuous cost containment initiatives, and (e) the gradual restoration of traditional commission income, such as asset management and network fees and commissions relating with capital markets and investment banking activities.
The implementation of the Group's Business Plan largely depends on the risks and uncertainties that stem from the macroeconomic environment in Greece as well as in the countries that the Group operates (note 2).
As at 30 June 2019, pursuant to the Law 4172/2013, as in force, the Bank's eligible DTAs/deferred tax credits (DTCs) against the Greek State amounted to € 3,886 million. The DTCs will be converted into directly enforceable claims (tax credit) against the Greek State provided that the Bank's after tax accounting result for the year is a loss. In particular, DTCs are accounted for on: (a) the losses from the Private Sector Involvement (PSI) and the Greek State Debt Buyback Program and (b) on the sum of (i) the unamortized part of the crystallized loan losses from write-offs and disposals, (ii) the accounting debt write-offs and (iii) the remaining accumulated provisions and other losses in general due to credit risk recorded up to 30 June 2015.
In accordance with the tax regime, in force, the above crystallized tax losses arising from write-offs and disposals on customers' loans are amortised over a twenty-year period, maintaining the DTC status during all this period, while they are disconnected from the accounting write-offs. Accordingly, the recovery of the Bank's deferred tax asset recorded on loans and advances to customers and the regulatory capital structure are safeguarded, contributing substantially to the achievement of the NPEs reduction targets, through the acceleration of write-offs and disposals.
As of May 2017, according to article 82 of Law 4472/2017, which further amended article 27A of Law 4172/2013, an annual fee of 1.5% is imposed on the excess amount of deferred tax assets guaranteed by the Greek State, stemming from the difference between the current tax rate for credit institutions (i.e. 29%) and the tax rate applicable on 30 June 2015 (i.e. 26%). For the period ended 30 June 2019, an amount of € 3.4 million has been recognized in "Other income/(expenses)".

In September 2017, the sale of Bancpost S.A., ERB Retail Services IFN S.A. and ERB Leasing IFN S.A. in Romania (Romanian disposal group) was considered highly probable, therefore, as of 30 September 2017 Romanian disposal group was classified as held for sale.
The Romanian disposal group was the major part of the Group's operations in Romania, which were presented in the International segment.
On 3 April 2018, Eurobank Group (the Seller) and Banca Transilvania (BT) (the Purchaser), in line with their pre-sale agreement in November 2017, concluded all the remaining actions and fulfilled all the conditions precedent for the completion of the transfer of the shares held by the Group in the above companies to BT. The resulting loss of € 72 million after tax, which has been recognized in the income statement until the year ended 31 December 2018 (of which € 46 million loss has been recognised in the period ended 30 June 2018), includes the recyclement to the income statement of € 46 million cumulative losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income.
According to the relevant Sale Purchase Agreement (SPA), there are specific indemnity clauses based on which the Purchaser could claim specific amounts, subject to certain limitations on total claims.
According to the tax audit assessment communicated to Bancpost S.A. within July 2018, following the completion of the tax audit for the years 2011-2015, the additional taxes to be paid amounted in total to € 40 million, approximately.
The Group is in close cooperation with BT, which is in the process of challenging the tax audit assessment in courts.
In respect of the above, in the first half of 2019, the Group has recognized an additional provision of € 5 million (€ 3.6 million after tax), while the accumulated provisions, which have been recognized up to 30 June 2019 amount to € 20 million.
In addition in the second half of 2018, the Romanian National Authority for Consumer Protection (ANPC) imposed three fines totaling € 72 thousand on Bancpost S.A. in connection with complaints raised by certain Bancpost S.A. lending clients, related to portfolios of performing loans which were assigned by Bancpost S.A. to ERB New Europe Funding II (an entity in the Netherlands controlled by Eurobank) in 2008.
In the first half of 2019, the first instance court admitted BT's complaints (as legal successor to Bancpost S.A.) against ANPC in all three aforementioned cases, ruling that the relevant penalties imposed on Bancpost S.A. are cancelled. ANPC already appealed against the first instance rulings in two of the cases and it is expected ANPC will appeal against the first instance ruling also in the third case.
Further information in relation to the sale of Romanian disposal group is provided in note 17 of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018.

(1) The POCI loans are presented in 'Lifetime ECL credit-impaired' stage.

As at 30 June 2019, the carrying amount of loans and advances to customers acquired from Piraeus Bank Bulgaria A.D. (note 31) was € 714 million (wholesale: € 487 million, mortgage: € 115 million, consumer: € 83 million, small business lending: € 29 million).
As at 30 June 2019, the Group's non performing exposures included in loans and advances to customers at amortised cost were reduced to € 14,292 million (31 December 2018: € 16,653 million) driving the Group NPE ratio to 32.8% (31 December 2018: 37%).
In March 2019, Eurobank and the other Greek systemic banks responded to the new regulatory framework and SSM requirements for NPEs management and submitted their new NPE Management Strategy for 2019-21, along with NPE Stock Annual Targets at both bank and, for the first time, group level. Specifically for Eurobank, the new submission has taken into account the NPE reduction acceleration plan that was announced in the context of its transformation plan and aims to achieve a Group NPE ratio of ca. 16% in 2019 and a single digit by 2021.
Furthermore, in March 2019, a new protection scheme on primary residence was voted by the Greek Parliament, which is expected to bolster the Banks' efforts to reduce NPEs through a more effective mechanism to work out troubled loans, a restriction of strategic defaulters and, ultimately, an improvement in payment discipline.
As of 25 April 2019, the parliament of Republic of Serbia adopted a new law on the conversion of mortgage loans indexed in Swiss Francs. Pursuant to the aforementioned law, the Serbian banks were obligated to offer the conversion of the remaining debt indexed in CHF into debt indexed in EUR within 30 days from the law's enforcement. The law envisaged a 38% haircut of the converted debt, of which 15% is reimbursed by the Republic of Serbia, while the banks are also entitled to a tax credit of 2% on the amount of the remaining debt. This debt reduction is considered tax deductible pursuant to the local corporate income tax law. The debtors had 30 days to inform the banks if they would accept the above offer, which included the application of the interest rate valid on 31 March 2019 for EUR indexed loans.
For the period ended 30 June 2019, Eurobank's banking subsidiary in Serbia "Eurobank A.D. Beograd" recognized € 17.6 million impairment losses relating to loans and advances to customers eligible for conversion under the above law. The total tax effect from the aforementioned conversion including the tax credit of 2% amounted to € 4.4 million income. Considering that the majority of the debtors have already participated in the conversion, the Group does not expect further significant impact in its financial position from the law.
In June 2019, the Bank announced that it has entered into a binding agreement with an international investor for the sale of 95% of the mezzanine and junior notes of a securitization of a residential mortgage loan portfolio of ca. € 2 bn gross book value (Project Pillar comprising primarily NPEs). Eurobank shall retain 100% of the senior notes, as well as 5% of the mezzanine and junior notes. Upon closing of the transaction and as a result of the notes' disposal, the Bank will transfer substantially all risks and rewards of ownership and will derecognize the loan portfolio. Consequently, as at 30 June 2019, the portfolio comprising loans with gross carrying amount of € 1,987 million, which carried an impairment allowance of € 845 million, has been classified as held for sale. The net carrying amount of the loan portfolio amounting to € 1,142 million corresponds to its implied valuation based on the nominal value of the senior notes and the sale price of the mezzanine notes according to the terms of the above agreement. The closing of the transaction is subject to SSM approval, and is expected to occur within the third quarter of 2019.
Additionally, during the second quarter of 2019, the Bank received a binding offer for the disposal of non-performing corporate loans. Accordingly, loans with gross carrying amount of € 37 million, which carried an impairment allowance of € 29 million, were classified as held for sale, as their sale was considered highly probable.

In the same month, the Bank announced that it has signed a binding agreement with Celidoria S.A R.L, an entity ultimately owned by funds whose investment manager is the global investment management firm Pimco, for the sale of 95% of the mezzanine and junior notes of the abovementioned securitization (note 15).
Furthermore, in June 2019, the Bank through its special purpose financing vehicles Cairo No. 1 Finance Designated Activity Company, Cairo No. 2 Finance Designated Activity Company and Cairo No. 3 Finance Designated Activity Company, issued asset backed securities of total face value of ca. € 7.5 bn, collateralized by a mixed assets portfolio of NPEs, which have been fully retained by the Bank. In the same month, the Bank and Bravo Strategies III LLC, an affiliate of Celidoria, agreed to enter into exclusive negotiations for the sale of 20% of the mezzanine and junior notes of the abovementioned securitization (Project Cairo) and the sale of a majority stake in the Bank's subsidiary Financial Planning Services S.A. (Project Europe). The parties intend to conclude the agreement within the third quarter of 2019.
In January 2018, the Bank issued Tier 2 capital instruments of face value of € 950 million, in replacement of the preference shares which had been issued in the context of the first stream of Hellenic Republic's plan to support liquidity in the Greek economy under Law 3723/2008. The aforementioned instruments, which have a maturity of ten years (until 17 January 2028) and pay fixed nominal interest rate of 6.41% (recognized in the income statement), that shall be payable semi-annually, as at 30 June 2019, amounted to € 977 million, including € 4 million unamortized issuance costs and € 31 million accrued interest.
In January 2019, the Group issued medium term notes of face value of € 2 million.
During the period ended 30 June 2019, the Bank proceeded with the partial cancellation of covered bonds of face value of € 150 million, previously retained by the Bank.
Financial disclosures required by the Act 2620/28.08.2009 of the Bank of Greece in relation to the covered bonds issued, are available at the Bank's website (Investor Report for Covered Bonds Programs).

| Series A | Series B | Series C | Series D | Total | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| € million | € million | € million | € million | € million | |
| Balance at 30 June | 2 | 4 | 17 | 19 | 42 |
All obligations of the issuer, in respect of the aforementioned issues of preferred securities, are guaranteed on a subordinated basis by the Bank. The analytical terms of each issue along with the rates and/or the basis of calculation of preferred dividends are available at the Bank's website. Following the redemption of the Greek State – owned preference shares (note 24) on 17 January 2018, and in accordance with the terms of the preferred securities, ERB Hellas Funding Ltd declared and paid the non-cumulative dividends of € 1.4 million (€ 1.2 million after tax) in total on the Series A, B, C and D. As at 30 June 2019, the dividend attributable to preferred securities holders amounted to € 1.4 million (€ 1.2 million, after tax).
ERB Hellas Funding proceeded with the payment of non-cumulative dividends of € 0.7 million in total on series C, D and B on 9 July, 29 July and 2 August 2019, respectively.
In April 2019, the Board of Directors of ERB Hellas Funding decided to proceed with the redemption of all four series of the preferred securities issued. The relevant regulatory announcement of its intention was released on 23 April 2019. Accordingly, on 29 May and 21 June 2019, a notice for the redemption of series C and B preferred securities was given to the holders and the notes were redeemed on 9 July and 2 August 2019 respectively. Pursuant to the terms of each issue, the next available call dates for the redemption of series D and A preferred securities are 29 October 2019 and 18 March 2020, respectively.

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 in the principal (or most advantageous) market at the measurement date under current market conditions (i.e. an exit price). When a quoted price for an identical asset or liability is not observable, fair value is measured using another valuation technique that is appropriate in the circumstances, and maximizes the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are developed using market data, such as publicly available information about actual events or transactions, and reflect assumptions that market participants would use when pricing financial instruments, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments, interest rates and yield curves, implied volatilities and credit spreads.
The Group's financial instruments measured at fair value or at amortized cost for which fair value is disclosed are categorized into the three levels of the fair value hierarchy based on whether the inputs to the fair values are observable or unobservable, as follows:
The fair value hierarchy categorization of the Group's financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value is presented in the following tables:

The Group's processes and procedures governing the fair valuations are established by the Group Market Counterparty Risk Sector in line with the Group's accounting policies. The Group uses widely recognized valuation models for determining the fair value of common financial instruments that are not quoted in an active market, such as interest and cross currency swaps, that use only observable market data and require little management estimation and judgment. Specifically, observable prices or model inputs are usually available in the market for listed debt and equity securities, exchange-traded and simple over-the-counter derivatives. Availability of observable market prices and model inputs reduces the need for management judgment and estimation and also reduces the uncertainty associated with determining fair values.
Where valuation techniques are used to determine the fair values of financial instruments that are not quoted in an active market, they are validated against historical data and, where possible, against current or recent observed transactions in different instruments, and periodically reviewed by qualified personnel independent of the personnel that created them. All models are certified before they are used and models are calibrated to ensure that outputs reflect actual data and comparative market prices. Fair values' estimates obtained from models are adjusted for any other factors, such as liquidity risk or model uncertainties, to the extent that market participants would take them into account in pricing the instrument. Fair values also reflect the credit risk of the instrument and include adjustments to take account of the credit risk of the Group entity and the counterparty, where appropriate.
Valuation controls applied by the Group may include verification of observable pricing, re-performance of model valuations, review and approval process for new models and/or changes to models, calibration and back-testing against observable market transactions, where available, analysis of significant valuation movements, etc. Where third parties' valuations are used for fair value measurement, these are reviewed in order to ensure compliance with the requirements of IFRS 13.
OTC derivative financial instruments are fair valued by discounting expected cash flows using market interest rates at the measurement date. Counterparty credit risk adjustments and own credit risk adjustments are applied to OTC derivatives, where appropriate. Bilateral credit risk adjustments consider the expected cash flows between the Group and its counterparties under the relevant terms of the derivative instruments and the effect of the credit risk on the valuation of these cash flows. As appropriate in

circumstances, the Group considers also the effect of any credit risk mitigating arrangements, including collateral agreements and master netting agreements on the calculation of credit risk valuation adjustments (CVAs). CVA calculation uses probabilities of default (PDs) based on observable market data such as credit default swaps (CDS) spreads, where appropriate, or based on internal rating models. The Group applies similar methodology for the calculation of debit-value-adjustments (DVAs), when applicable. Where valuation techniques are based on internal rating models and the relevant CVA is significant to the entire fair value measurement, such derivative instruments are categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. A reasonably possible change in the main unobservable input (i.e. the recovery rate), used in their valuation, would not have a significant effect on their fair value measurement.
The Group determines fair values for debt securities held using quoted market prices in active markets for securities with similar credit risk, maturity and yield, quoted market prices in non active markets for identical or similar financial instruments, or using discounted cash flows method.
Unquoted equity instruments at FVTPL under IFRS 9 are estimated mainly (i) using third parties' valuation reports based on investees' net assets, where management does not perform any further significant adjustments, and (ii) net assets' valuations, adjusted where considered necessary.
Loans and advances to customers which contractual cash flows do not represent solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI failures), are measured mandatorily at fair value through profit or loss. Quoted market prices are not available as there are no active markets where these instruments are traded. Their fair values are estimated on an individual loan basis by discounting the future expected cash flows over the time period they are expected to be recovered, using an appropriate discount rate. Expected cash flows, which incorporate credit risk, represent significant unobservable input in the valuation and as such, the entire fair value measurement is categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. A reasonably possible increase/decrease in those recovery rates by +5%/-5% would increase/decrease the total fair value measurement by € 2.4 million.
The fair value hierarchy categorization of the Group's financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value on the balance sheet, is presented in the following tables:
| 30 June 2019 | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Carrying | ||||

| Debt securities in issue | 2,707 | 2,495 | ||
| Financial liabilities not measured at fair value | 2,707 | 2,495 |
The assumptions and methodologies underlying the calculation of fair values of financial instruments not measured at fair value, are in line with those used to calculate the fair values for financial instruments measured at fair value. Particularly:
For other financial instruments, which are short term or re-price at frequent intervals (cash and balances with central banks, due from credit institutions, due to central banks, due to credit institutions and due to customers), the carrying amounts represent reasonable approximations of fair values.
For the purpose of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents comprise the following balances with original maturities of three months or less:
| 30 June | 31 December | |
|---|---|---|
| 2019 | 2018 | |
| € million | € million | |
| Cash and balances with central banks (excluding mandatory and | ||

| (Gains)/losses from investment securities | (44) | (46) |
| Dividends | (1) | (1) |
| Total | 10 | (73) |
As of 1 January 2019, following the adoption of IFRS 16, cash payments for the principal portion of the lease liabilities are classified within financing activities.


The Group presents the credit related commitments it has undertaken within the context of its lending related activities into the following three categories: a) financial guarantee contracts, which refer to guarantees and standby letters of credit that carry the same credit risk as loans (credit substitutes), b) commitments to extend credit, which comprise firm commitments that are irrevocable over the life of the facility or revocable only in response to a material adverse effect and c) other credit related commitments, which refer to documentary and commercial letters and other guarantees of medium and low risk according to the Regulation No 575/2013/EU.
Credit related commitments are analyzed as follows:
| 30 June | 31 December | |
|---|---|---|
| 2019 | 2018 | |
| € million | € million | |
| Financial guarantee contracts | 640 | 715 |
| Commitments to extend credit | 770 | 580 |
| Other credit related commitments | 464 | 406 |
| Total | 1,874 | 1,701 |
The credit related commitments within the scope of IFRS 9 impairment requirements amount to € 4.8 bn, including revocable loan commitments of € 3 bn, while the corresponding allowance for impairment losses amounts to € 55 million (31 December 2018: € 58 million).
In addition, the Group has issued a sovereign risk financial guarantee of € 0.24 bn (31 December 2018: € 0.24 bn) for which an equivalent amount has been deposited under the relevant pledge agreement (note 20).
As at 30 June 2019, a provision of € 57 million has been recorded for a number of legal proceedings outstanding against the Group (31 December 2018: € 56 million), as set out in note 25. The said amount includes € 34 million for an outstanding litigation related to the acquisition of New TT Hellenic Postbank S.A. in 2013 (31 December 2018: € 34 million).
Furthermore, in the normal course of its business, the Group has been involved in a number of legal proceedings, which are either at still a premature or at an advanced trial instance. The final settlement of these cases may require the lapse of a certain time so that the litigants exhaust the legal remedies provided for by the law. Management, having considered the advice of the Legal Services General Division, does not expect that there will be an outflow of resources and therefore does not acknowledge the need for a provision.
Against the Bank various legal remedies and redresses have been filed amongst others in the form of lawsuits, applications for injunction measures, motions to vacate payment orders and appeals in relation to the validity of clauses for the granting of loans in Swiss Francs. A class action has also been filed by a consumer union. To date the vast majority of the judgments issued by the first instance and the appellate Courts have found in favour of the Bank's positions. On the class action, a judgment of the Athens Court of Appeals was issued in February 2018, which was in favour of the Bank and rejected the lawsuit on its merits. The judgment has been challenged by the consumer unions with an appeal which was scheduled to be heard before the Supreme Court on 20 May 2019. The hearing was cancelled due to the elections held on 26 May 2019, while a new date has not been set. As to certain aspects of Swiss Francs loans there was also a pending lawsuit before the Supreme Court at plenary session which was initiated from an individual lawsuit. The Decision issued on 18 April 2019 was in favour of the Bank.
In any event, the Management of the Bank is closely monitoring the developments to the relevant cases so as to ascertain potential accounting implications in accordance with the Group's accounting policies.
On 26 November 2018, the Boards of Directors ("BoD") of Eurobank Ergasias S.A. ("Eurobank") and Grivalia Properties REIC ("Grivalia") announced that they unanimously decided to commence the merger of the two companies by absorption of Grivalia by Eurobank (the "Merger"). Grivalia was a real estate investment company under Law 2778/1999, as in force, incorporated in Greece. The
business of Grivalia along with its subsidiaries (Grivalia group, note 17) and its joint ventures (note 18) was the acquisition, management and leasing out of investment property portfolio located in Greece, in Central Eastern Europe and in Central America.
On 7 February 2019, the European Commission (DG Competition) decided that the Merger is in line with Eurobank's commitments and State Aid rules considering that the strengthening of its capital base through the Merger will enable Eurobank to significantly reduce its non-performing loans in the near future.
On 22 February 2019, the BoD of Eurobank and Grivalia approved the Draft Merger Agreement for the absorption of Grivalia by Eurobank according to the provisions of Greek laws 2166/1993 and 2515/1997, as in force, as well as the applicable Company Law. The proposed share exchange ratio was 15.80000000414930 new Eurobank ordinary registered shares for every 1 Grivalia ordinary registered share, while Eurobank shareholders retain the number of Eurobank ordinary shares they held before the Merger. Accordingly, with respect to the new share capital of Eurobank, 2,185,998,765 shares are allocated to the shareholders of Eurobank and 1,523,163,087 to the shareholders of Grivalia.
On 5 April 2019, the Extraordinary General Meeting of the shareholders of Eurobank resolved, among others (a) the approval of the Merger of the Bank with Grivalia by absorption of the latter by the former, (b) the approval of the Draft Merger Agreement, as it was approved by the BoD of the merging companies and (c) the increase of the share capital of the Bank by € 197 million (note 26).
The Merger was accounted for as a business combination using the purchase method of accounting. The date on which the Shareholders General Meetings of both companies approved the merger, i.e. 5 April 2019 has been determined as the acquisition date as it is considered the date that Eurobank obtained control of Grivalia.
The consideration of the transaction amounting to € 1,093.9 million has been calculated as the fair value of the 1,523,163,087 Eurobank new ordinary shares with reference to Eurobank's share market price on the acquisition date (i.e. € 0.7185) less the fair value of the new Eurobank shares issued corresponding to the Grivalia shares held by the Bank's subsidiary ERB Equities.
The fair value measurement of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been provisionally determined and is close to finalization. Upon acquisition, their provisional fair values are presented in the table below:
| Fair value | |
|---|---|
| (Provisional | |
| values) | |
| € million | |
| Assets | |
| Due from credit institutions (1) | 30 |
| of which intercompany balances with Eurobank Group | 2 4 |
| Property, plant and equipment and investment property | 1,015 |
| Investment in associates and joint ventures | 60 |
| Other assets (2) | 16 |
| Total assets | 1,121 |
| Liabilities | |
| Due to credit institutions | 222 |
| of which intercompany balances with Eurobank Group | 147 |
| Other liabilities | 27 |
| of which intercompany balances with Eurobank Group | 4 |
| Total liabilities | 249 |
| Shareholders' equity | 872 |
| Total equity and liabilities | 1,121 |
(1) It includes € 3 million cash and cash equivalents (third parties).
(2) It includes mainly trade and other receivables of gross carrying amount of € 17 million of which an amount of € 2 million was expected to be uncollectible at the date of acquisition.

The difference between: (a) the total consideration of € 1,093.9 million and the fair value of the Group's previously held equity interest in Grivalia of € 0.4 million, and (b) the net identifiable assets acquired (provisional fair values of assets and liabilities as stated above) of € 872 million, results in the recognition of a temporary goodwill of € 222 million, which is expected to be finalized by the year end. This is not deductible for income tax purposes and is included in intangible assets. Following the Merger, Eurobank's equity increased by € 1,087 million net of € 7 million related costs. The Merger enhances Eurobank's capital position (note 4) and its earnings capacity, which in turn enables the acceleration of its NPEs reduction plan. In addition, through the Merger, the Group is allowed to deploy Grivalia's best in class real estate management skills to the Bank's real estate assets, in particular to its repossessed assets, which is critical for the management of NPEs.
The results of Grivalia group operations are incorporated in the Group's financial statements prospectively, as of 1 April 2019. If the acquisition had occurred on 1 January 2019, Grivalia group would have contributed net profit of ca. € 9 million to the Group for the period from 1 January 2019 up to 31 March 2019. As of 1 April 2019, the revenues from the investment property portfolio acquired from Grivalia group are presented within the line "Income from non banking services" of the income statement. The Merger was approved on 17 May 2019 by the Ministry of Finance and Development and was registered, on the same day, in the General Commercial Registry. The trading of the 1,523,163,087 new common voting shares of nominal value € 0.23 each was initiated at Athens Exchange on 23 May 2019.
As a result of the Merger, Fairfax group, which before the Merger held 18.40% and 54.02% in Eurobank and Grivalia, respectively, becomes the largest shareholder in the merged entity with a 33.03% shareholding (note 32).
On 22 February 2019, the Board of Directors of Eurobank also approved the upcoming agreement (SLA), pursuant to article 100 of Greek Law 4548/2018, of the Bank with the company to be incorporated under the name "Grivalia Management Company SA" (the "Company"). The Company was established in March 2019 and is a related party to Eurobank, since a member of the Bank's Board of Directors holdsthe majority (70%) of the shares of the Company and is an executive member of the board of directors of the Company.
The Bank has concluded a 10-year advisory services agreement with Grivalia Management Company S.A. for the combined real estate portfolio of the merged entities, that came into force following the completion of the Merger. The related services assigned to the Company under this agreement mainly refer to advisory services relating to the acquisition, transfer, lease, management development and strategic planning of the management of real estate assets, including the preparation of the annual budget and the supervision of Eurobank's contractors and advisors. Following a specific mandate, the Company will also undertake certain implementation actions. According to the SLA, total fees that will be charged by the Company based on cost and performance criteria, including a minimum service fee of € 9.35 million for the combined own used and investment property portfolio and a fee related to repossessed assets, shall not exceed € 12 million (excluding VAT) per annum.
Further information on the above transactions is provided in the regulatory announcements on the Bank's website dated 26 November 2018 and 8 February, 25 February, 1 March, 5 April and 17 May 2019.
On 7 November 2018, the Bank announced that it has concluded an agreement with Piraeus Bank S.A. for the acquisition of 99.98% of voting rights of Piraeus Bank Bulgaria A.D. ("PBB"), a subsidiary of Piraeus Bank, by Eurobank's subsidiary in Bulgaria, Eurobank Bulgaria A.D. ("Postbank") (the "Transaction").
On 13 June 2019, the Transaction was concluded, following the receipt of the relevant regulatory approvals. As at 30 June 2019, the estimated consideration of the Transaction amounted to € 81 million consisting of the upfront cash consideration of € 55 million, a deferred consideration of € 20 million, to be paid to the seller within a four year period and an additional estimated amount of € 6 million, based on the unaudited benchmark Net Asset Value of PBB as per the provisions of the relevant shares Sale and Purchase Agreement (SPA), to be finally determined upon conclusion of the relevant audits, as described therein.

The fair value measurement of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be completed within 12 months from the acquisition date (measurement period) as provided in IFRS 3. Upon acquisition, their provisional fair values are presented in the table below:
| Fair value | |
|---|---|
| (Provisional | |
| values) | |
| € million | |
| Assets | |
| Cash and balances with central banks | 272 |
| Due from credit institutions | 326 |
| Net loans and advances to customers | 738 |
| Gross contractual amount: € 858 million | |
| Investment securities | 32 |
| Property, plant and equipment | 12 |
| Other assets (1) | 5 |
| Total Assets (2) | 1,385 |
| Liabilities | |
| Due to credit institutions | 148 |
| Due to customers | 1,103 |
| Other liabilities | 18 |
| Total Liabilities | 1,269 |
| Shareholders' equity (3) | 116 |
| Total equity and liabilites | 1,385 |
(1) Other assets include intangible assets, the investment in Piraeus Insurance Brokerage EOOD and other assets.
(2) Includes cash and cash equivalents of € 501 million.
(3) Includes non controlling interests of € 0.02 million.
The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination using the purchase method of accounting. The resulting gain on the acquisition of the PBB, amounting to € 30 million net of acquisition-related costs of € 5 million, is attributed to the particular circumstances of the acquisition, in line with the restructuring plan of the seller and Eurobank's strategy to focus on specific international markets, and has been recognized in 'Other income/(expenses)'. In addition, a deferred income tax charge of € 3 million arose as a result of the acquisition (note 12).
The results of PBB were incorporated in the Group's financial statements prospectively, as of 1 June 2019. If the acquisition had occurred on 1 January 2019, PBB would have contributed net profit of € 1.8 million to the Group for the period from 1 January 2019 up to 31 May 2019.
In line with the Group's strategy to focus on the expansion of its international activities in markets which are deemed core, this acquisition will strengthen Postbank's position in the Bulgarian banking sector, in both the retail and mainly corporate business segments.
In the context of the NPE reduction acceleration plan, as announced in November 2018, the BoD of the Bank ("Demerged Entity") on 28 June 2019 decided the initiation of the hive down process of the banking business sector of Eurobank and its transfer to a new company-credit institution that will be established ("the Beneficiary").
On 31 July 2019, the BoD of the Bank approved the Draft Demerger Deed through the aforementioned hive down and establishment of a new company-credit institution, pursuant to Article 16 of Law 2515/1997 and Articles 57 (3) and 59-74 of Law 4601/2019, as currently in force. In particular, the demerger will involve the hive-down of the banking business sector of Eurobank, to which the assets and the liabilities, as described on the transformation balance sheet of the hived-down sector as at 30 June 2019 ("Transformation Date"), are included. All actions that will take place after the Transformation Date and will concern the hived down sector shall be treated as occurring on behalf of the Beneficiary.

The Demerged Entity will maintain activities and assets that are not related to the main banking activities but are mainly related to the strategic planning of the administration of non-performing loans and the provision of services to the Group companies and third parties. Furthermore the Demerged Entity will retain: a) 95% of the mezzanine and junior notes of Projects Pillar and Cairo (note 15 and 24), b) the preferred securities (note 27) and c) participations in certain subsidiaries including Be Business Exchanges S.A. and real estate companies related to projects Pillar and Cairo.
Upon the completion of the demerger (i.e. the date of registration with the General Commercial Registry of the relevant approval by the competent Authority), the following shall take place: a) The Beneficiary will be incorporated and the Demerged Entity shall become the shareholder of the Beneficiary by acquiring all the shares issued by the Beneficiary and more specifically 3,683,244,830 common registered shares, of a nominal value of € 1.10 each and b) the Beneficiary substitutes the Demerged Entity, by way of universal succession, to all the transferred assets and liabilities, as set out in the transformation balance sheet of the hived down sector and formed up to the completion of the demerger.
As of 9 August 2019, the Draft Demerger Deed of the Bank, is available on its website as well as the website of the General Commercial Registry.
The completion of the demerger is subject to the required by the Law approval of the General Meeting of the shareholders of the Bank as well as the receipt of all necessary approvals by the competent Authorities.

Further information in respect of the HFSF rights based on the aforementioned framework is provided in the section "Report of the Directors and Corporate Governance Statement" of the Annual Financial Report for the year ended 31 December 2018.

To the Shareholders of Eurobank Ergasias S.A.
We have reviewed the accompanying interim balance sheet of Eurobank Ergasias S.A. (the "Bank") as at 30 June 2019 and the related interim statements of Income and Comprehensive Income, Changes in Equity and Cash Flows for the six-month period then ended and the selected explanatory notes, which comprise the interim condensed financial information and which forms an integral part of the six-month financial report of articles 5 and 5a of Law 3556/2007. Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim condensed financial information in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union and specifically with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 "Interim Financial Reporting". Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim condensed financial information based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements (ISRE) 2410 "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity". A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, as incorporated in Greek Law, and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim condensed financial information as at 30 June 2019 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting".

Eurobank Ergasias S.A. (the Bank) is active in retail, corporate and private banking, asset management, treasury, capital markets and other services. The Bank is incorporated in Greece and its shares are listed on the Athens Stock Exchange. The Bank operates mainly in Greece and through its subsidiaries in Central and Southeastern Europe.
These interim financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 28 August 2019. The Ιndependent Auditor's Report on Review of Interim Financial Information is included in the Section V of the Financial Report for the period ended 30 June 2019.
These interim condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' as adopted by the European Union (EU).The interim condensed financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018. Where necessary, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform with changes in presentation in the current period. Except as indicated, financial information presented in euro has been rounded to the nearest million.
The accounting policies and methods of computation in these interim financial statements are consistent with those in the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018, except as described below.
The interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, as the Board of the Directors considered as appropriate, taking into consideration the following:
a) The Group operates in an environment of positive growth rates both in Greece and the other countries, in which it has a substantial presence. Specifically, in 2019, real GDP for Greece (Group's main market) is expected to grow by 2.1% according to the July 2019 forecast by European Commission (2018: 1.9%, according to the Hellenic Statistical Authority's (ELSTAT)). Based on ELSTAT and Ministry of Finance data, the unemployment rate in April 2019 was at 17.6% (April 2018: 19.8%) and the 2018 fiscal primary surplus was at 4.3% of GDP. The Stability Programme's fiscal primary surplus forecast for 2019 is at 4.1% of GDP.
Following the successful conclusion of the third economic adjustment program (TEAP) in August 2018, Greece has entered into the Enhanced Surveillance (ES), which foresees quarterly reviews. So far, Greece has completed the first three consecutive reviews, the last of them was completed in early June 2019. The conclusion of the fourth review is expected in mid-September 2019. On 5 April 2019, the Eurogroup endorsed the release of the first set of policy-contingent debt measures of € 970 million. In the first half of 2019, the Greek sovereign established market access with the successful issuance of a 5-year bond of € 2.5 bn at a yield of 3.6% on 29 January 2019, a 10-year bond of € 2.5 bn at a yield of 3.9% on 6 March 2019 and a 7-year bond of €2.5 bn at a yield of 1.9% on 16 July 2019.
Regarding the outlook for the next 12 months, the major macroeconomic risks and uncertainties in Greece are associated with (i) the adherence to established reforms and the unimpeded implementation of the reforms and privatisations' agenda in order to meet the ES targets and milestones, (ii) the impact on the level of economic activity and on the attraction of direct investments from the fiscal and social security-related measures agreed under the reviews of the TEAP and the ES, (iii) the ability to attract new investments in the country and (iv) the geopolitical and macroeconomic conditions in the near or in broader region, including the impacts of a persistent low/negative rates' environment and the external shocks from a slowdown in the regional and/ or global economy. Materialization of those risks would have potentially adverse effects on the liquidity, solvency and profitability of the Greek banking sector. The Group monitors closely the developments in the Greek and regional macroeconomic environment taking into account its direct and indirect exposure to sovereign risk.
b) The merger with Grivalia completed in May 2019 has further enhanced Eurobank's capital, leading the total CAD and the CET1 ratios to 18.4% and 15.9% (Bank 18.2% and 15.5%) respectively as at 30 June 2019. The Group's net profit attributable to shareholders amounted to € 26 million (€90 million net profit from continuing operations before € 61 million restructuring costs, after tax) for the first half of 2019, while the Bank's after tax result amounted to a loss of € 49 million. Furthermore, the Bank has eliminated the use of ELA as of end January 2019. In the first half of 2019, the Group deposits have been increased by € 2.2 bn (out of which € 1.1 bn is associated with the acquisition of Piraeus Bank Bulgaria) to € 41.3 bn (31 December 2018: € 39.1 bn), improving the Group's (net) loans to deposits (L/D) ratio to 86.5% as at 30 June 2019 (31 December 2018: 92.6%).

c) At the end of June 2019, the Bank reached a binding agreement for the sale of 95% of the mezzanine and junior notes of a securitization of a residential mortgage loan portfolio of ca. € 2 bn, gross book value (project Pillar comprising primarily NPEs) which represents the second significant milestone of the Bank's frontloaded plan for derisking its balance sheet (note 13). As at 30 June 2019 and taking into account the above transaction, the Bank NPEs at amortized cost have been reduced to € 12.9 bn, driving the NPE ratio to 36.8% (31 December 2018: 40.8%). Going forward, the Bank is in process of completing the next two steps of its plan, specifically, a) the sale of 20% of the mezzanine and junior notes of a securitization of a mixed assets portfolio of NPEs with a gross book value of ca. € 7.5 bn (Project Cairo) and b) the sale of a majority stake in Financial Planning Services S.A. (FPS), the licensed 100%-owned loan servicer of Eurobank (Project Europe) (note 21).
The Board of Directors, taking into account the above factors relating to the adequacy of the Bank's capital and liquidity position as well as the progress that has been made in executing its NPE reduction acceleration plan, has been satisfied that the financial statements of the Bank can be prepared on a going concern basis.
The following new standards, amendments to standards and new interpretations as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the IFRS Interpretations Committee (IC) and endorsed by the European Union (EU), apply from 1 January 2019:
The amendment changes IFRS 9 requirements in order to allow measurement of a financial asset at amortized cost or at FVOCI, depending on the business model, even in the case of prepayment options which could result in the party that triggers the early termination receiving compensation from the other party (negative compensation). Therefore, these financial assets can now be measured at amortised cost or at FVOCI, regardless of the event or circumstance that caused the early termination of the contract and irrespective of which party pays or receives reasonable compensation for the early termination. Applying IFRS 9 before the amendment would probably result in these financial assets failing the "Solely Payments of Principal and Interest "criterion and thus being measured at FVTPL.
The amendment also confirms the modification accounting of financial liabilities under IFRS 9. Specifically, when a financial liability measured at amortized cost is modified without this resulting in derecognition, a gain or loss, calculated as the difference between the original contractual cash flows and the modified cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate, should be recognized in profit or loss.
The adoption of the amendment had no impact on the Bank's interim financial statements.
The interpretation clarifies the application of the recognition and measurement requirements in IAS 12 'Income Taxes' when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments. In such a circumstance, recognition and measurement of current or deferred tax asset or liability according to IAS 12 is based on taxable profit (tax loss), tax bases, unused tax losses and tax credits and tax rates determined applying IFRIC 23.
According to the interpretation, each uncertain tax treatment is considered separately or together as a group, depending on which approach better predicts the resolution of the uncertainty and the entity should assume that a tax authority with the right to examine tax treatments will examine them and will have full knowledge of all relevant information.
If an entity concludes it is probable that the taxation authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment, it should determine its accounting for income taxes consistently with that tax treatment. If it concludes that it is not probable that the treatment will be accepted, the effect of the uncertainty in its income tax accounting should be reflected in the period in which that determination is made, using the method that best predicts the resolution of the uncertainty (i.e. the single most likely amount, or the expected value method which follows a probability weighted approach).
Judgments and estimates made for the recognition and measurement of the effect of uncertain tax treatments should be reassessed whenever circumstances change or new information that affects those judgments arise (e.g. actions by the tax authority, evidence that it has taken a particular position in connection with a similar item or the expiry of its right to examine a particular tax treatment).


IFRS 16, which supersedes IAS 17 'Leases' and related interpretations, introduces a single, on-balance sheet lease accounting model for lessees, under which the classification of leases for a lessee, as either operating leases or finance leases, is eliminated and all leases are treated similarly to finance leases under IAS 17.
The definition of a lease under IFRS 16 mainly relates to the concept of control. The new standard distinguishes between leases and service contracts on the basis of whether the use of an identified asset is controlled by the customer. Control is considered to exist if the customer has:
The right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of an identified asset; and
The right to direct the use of that asset.
IFRS 16 provides for the recognition of a 'right-of-use-asset' and a 'lease liability' upon lease commencement in case that there is a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys to the lessee the right to use an asset for a period of time in exchange for a consideration.
The right-of-use-asset is, initially, measured at cost, consisting of the amount of the lease liability, plus any lease payments made to the lessor at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received, the initial estimate of restoration costs and any initial direct costs incurred by the lessee and, subsequently, at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. The lease liability is initially recognized at an amount equal to the present value of the lease payments during the lease term that are not yet paid.
Consequently, the typical straight line operating lease expense of operating leases under IAS 17 is replaced by the depreciation charge of the 'right-of-use-asset' and the interest expense on the 'lease liability'. The recognition of assets and liabilities by lessees, as described above, is not required for certain short term leases and leases of low value assets. The accounting treatment for lessors is not substantially affected by the requirements of IFRS 16.
The Bank implemented the requirements of IFRS 16 on 1 January 2019. The Bank has chosen the modified retrospective application of IFRS 16 and therefore comparative information was not restated.
Upon transition, the Bank adopted the practical expedient available on transition to IFRS 16 not to reassess whether a contract is or contains a lease. Accordingly, existing contracts previously classified as service contracts such as ATMs, APSs and printing services were not classified as leases under IFRS 16, while the definition set out in IFRS 16 is applied to all lease contracts entered into or modified on or after 1 January 2019.
In accordance with IFRS 16, at the commencement date of the lease, the Bank as a lessee recognises right-of-use assets and lease liabilities in the statement of financial position, initially measured at the present value of the future lease payments.
The Bank applied this initial measurement principle to all leases, except for those with a lease term of 12 months or less, and leases of low value (i.e. less than € 5,000) - making use of the relevant short-term leases and leases of low-value assets exemptions. The Bank also adopted the practical expedient not to separate non-lease components from lease components.
In applying the modified retrospective transition approach, the Bank used the following main estimates and judgments:
•In determining the lease term for the leases in which the Bank is the lessee, including those leases having an indefinite duration, all relevant facts and circumstances, such as future housing needs and expected use, were considered and judgment was exercised. Furthermore, options to extend or terminate the lease that are reasonably certain to exercise were considered. These estimates will be revisited on a regular basis over the lease term.
•The present value of the lease liabilities was measured by using the incremental borrowing rate on the transition date, since the interest rate implicit in the leases was not readily determinable. The incremental borrowing rate was derived from the estimated covered bonds yield curve, which is constructed based on observable Greek Government Bond yields. The weighted average discount rate used to determine the lease liabilities was 2.6% and will be recalculated on a regular basis, using updated input.
•Applicable taxes, Value Added Tax and stamp duties were excluded from the scope of IFRS 16 calculations.
On 1 January 2019, the Bank recognised right-of-use assets of € 280 million and lease liabilities of an equivalent amount arising from leases of properties and vehicles, with no impact on shareholders' equity. The capital impact arising primarily from the increase in

risk-weighted assets was a reduction of approximately 11 bps on the Bank's common equity Tier I ratio by applying regulatory transitional arrangements (approximately -9 bps on the Bank's CET1 ratio, on a fully loaded basis).
It is noted that € 111 million of the above mentioned right-of-use assets and of the corresponding lease liabilities are related to properties on lease from Grivalia.
Following the merger of Eurobank with Grivalia (note 28), these assets and liabilities have been derecognized in the second quarter of 2019, as the related properties have become own used assets of the combined group.
With regard to subsequent measurement, the Bank, acting as a lessee, applies the cost model for the measurement of right-of-use asset. Accordingly, the right-of-use asset is measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses as determined in accordance with IAS 36, and is adjusted for the remeasurement of the lease liability.
On the other hand, interest expense is recognized on the lease liabilities, while their carrying amount is reduced to reflect the lease payments made. In case of any reassessments or lease modifications specified, the carrying amount of the lease liabilities is remeasured to reflect revised lease payments. For the period ended 30 June 2019, the depreciation charge for right-of-use assets was € 16 million and the interest expense recognised on lease liabilities was € 2 million.
The following table presents the reconciliation between the operating lease commitments, as disclosed under IAS 17 in the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018 and the lease liabilities recognised under IFRS 16:
| € million | |
|---|---|
| Non-cancellable operating lease rentals payable under IAS 17 | 107 |
| Plus: Future contractual lease payments (in excess of non-cancellable term) | 118 |
| Total future contractual operating lease payments | 225 |
| Plus: Re-estimation of lease term (1) | 105 |
| Adjusted total operating lease commitments as at 31 December 2018 | 330 |
| Less: Recognition exemption for short term leases and leases of low value | (3) |
| Less: Exclusion of Stamp Duty and VAT | (10) |
| Undiscounted lease liabilities as at 31 December 2018 | 317 |
| Less: Discounting effect of the lease liabilities using the incremental borrowing | |
| rate as at 1 January 2019 | (37) |
| Total lease liabilities recognised as at 1 January 2019 under IFRS 16 | 280 |
(1) The re-estimation of total future contractual lease payments includes primarily:
a) contracts that expire in 2019 but the Bank expects to renew and has reset their term,
b) contracts with indefinite duration for which the Bank has determined the term that it expects to occupy the leased asset, and
c) re-assessment of extension and termination options.
There was no impact from the adoption of IFRS 16 for the leases in which the Bank is a lessor.
When the Bank becomes the lessee in a lease arrangement, it recognizes a lease liability and a corresponding right-of-use (RoU) asset at the commencement of the lease term when the Bank acquires control of the physical use of the asset.
Lease liabilities are presented within Other liabilities and RoU assets within Property, plant and equipment. Lease liabilities are measured based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term, discounted using an incremental borrowing rate. The interest expense on lease liabilities is presented within Net interest income.
The RoU asset is initially recorded at an amount equal to the lease liability and is adjusted for rent prepayments, initial direct costs, or lease incentives received. Subsequently, the RoU asset is depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or the useful life of the underlying asset, with the depreciation presented within Operating expenses.
When a lease contains extension or termination options that the Bank considers reasonably certain to be exercised, the expected future lease payments or costs of early termination are included within the lease payments used to calculate the lease liability.
At inception date of the lease, the Bank, acting as a lessor, classifies each of its leases as either an operating lease or a finance lease based on certain criteria.
At commencement date, the Bank derecognizes the carrying amount of the underlying assets held under finance lease, recognizes a receivable at an amount equal to the net investment in the lease and recognizes, in profit or loss, any profit or loss from the derecognition of the asset and the recognition of the net investment. The net investment in the lease is calculated as the present value of the future lease payments in the same way as for the lessee.
After commencement date, the Bank recognizes finance income over the lease term, based on a pattern reflecting a constant periodic rate of return on the lessor's net investment in the lease. The Bank also recognizes income from variable payments that are not included in the net investment in the lease. After lease commencement, the net investment in a lease is not remeasured unless the lease is modified or the lease term is revised.
The Bank continues to recognize the underlying asset and does not recognize a net investment in the lease on the balance sheet or initial profit (if any) on the income statement.
The Bank recognizes lease payments as income on a straight-line basis. Also it recognizes costs, including depreciation, incurred in earning the lease income as an expense. The Bank adds initial direct costs incurred in obtaining an operating lease to the carrying amount of the underlying asset and recognizes those costs as an expense over the lease term on the same basis as the lease income.
The Bank, acting as a lessee, may enter into arrangements to sublease a leased asset to a third party while the original lease contract is in effect. The Bank acts as both the lessee and lessor of the same underlying asset. The sublease is a separate lease agreement, in which the intermediate lessor classifies the sublease as a finance lease or an operating lease as follows:
-if the head lease is a short-term lease, the sublease is classified as an operating lease; or
-otherwise, the sublease is classified by reference to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease, rather than by reference to the underlying asset.
The amendment clarifies that IFRS 9 'Financial Instruments' including its impairment requirements, applies to long term interests in associates or joint ventures that form part of the entity's net investment in the associate or joint venture but are not accounted for using equity accounting.
According to the amendment, an entity should not take into account any adjustments to the carrying amount of long term interests (net investment in the associate or joint venture), resulting from the application of IAS 28 'Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures' when applying IFRS 9.
The adoption of the amendment had no impact on the Bank's interim financial statements.
The amendment clarifies that when a change to a defined benefit plan i.e. an amendment, curtailment or settlement takes place and a remeasurement of the net defined benefit liability or asset is required, the updated actuarial assumptions from the remeasurement should be used to determine current service cost and net interest for the remainder of the reporting period after the change to the plan. Additionally, the amendment includes clarifications about the effect of a plan amendment, curtailment or settlement on the requirements regarding the asset ceiling. The amendment applies prospectively to plan amendments, curtailments or settlements that occur on or after the adoption date 1 January 2019.
The adoption of the amendment had no impact on the Bank's interim financial statements.


The improvements introduce key changes to several standards as set out below:
The amendments to IFRS 3 'Business Combinations' and IFRS 11 'Joint Arrangements' clarified how an entity accounts for increasing its interest in a joint operation that meets the definition of a business. Specifically, when an entity obtains control of a business that is a joint operation, then the transaction constitutes a business combination achieved in stages and the acquiring party re-measures the entire previously held interest in the assets and liabilities of the joint operation at fair value. Conversely, if a party obtains joint control, of a business that is a joint operation then the previously held interest is not re-measured.
The improvement to IAS 12 'Income Taxes' clarified that all income tax consequences of dividends, including payments on financial instruments classified as equity, should be recognized in profit or loss, other comprehensive income or equity, according to where the originating transaction or event that generated distributable profits giving rise to the dividend, was recognized.
IAS 23 'Borrowing costs' amendment clarified that any borrowing originally performed to develop a qualifying asset should be treated as part of the funds that the entity borrowed generally, when substantially all of the activities necessary to prepare that asset for its intended use or sale are complete.
The adoption of the amendments had no impact on the Bank's interim financial statements.
In preparing these interim financial statements, the significant estimates, judgments and assumptions made by Management in applying the Bank's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied to the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018, except for the accounting judgments that relate to the changes in accounting policies described in note 2 as a result of IFRS 16 adoption.
Further information about the key assumptions and sources of estimation uncertainty are set out in notes 11, 13, 15, 22, 25, 27 and 28.

| Tier 1 | 15.5 | 13.3 |

Note: The Bank's CET1 as at 30 June 2019, based on the full implementation of the Basel III rules in 2024 (fully loaded CET1), would be 13.5 % (31 December 2018: 10.7%).

The Bank has sought to maintain an actively managed capital base to cover risks inherent in the business. The adequacy of the Bank's capital is monitored using, among other measures, the rules and ratios established by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BIS rules/ratios) as adopted by the European Central Bank and the Bank of Greece in supervising the Bank. The capital adequacy framework, as in force, was incorporated in the European Union (EU) legislation through the Directive 2013/36/EU (known as CRD IV), along with the Regulation No 575/2013/EU (known as CRR). Directive 2013/36/EU was transposed into Greek legislation by Law 4261/2014. Supplementary to that, in the context of Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP), the Bank considers a broader range of risk types and the Bank's risk management capabilities. ICAAP aims ultimately to ensure that the Bank has sufficient capital to cover all material risks that it is exposed to, over a three-year horizon.
Based on Council Regulation No 1024/2013, the European Central Bank (ECB) conducts annually a Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP) in order to define the prudential requirements of the institutions under its supervision. The key purpose of the SREP is to ensure that institutions have adequate arrangements, strategies, processes and mechanisms as well as capital and liquidity to ensure a sound management and coverage of their risks, to which they are or might be exposed, including those revealed by stress testing and risks the institution, may pose to the financial system. According to the 2018 SREP decision, starting from 1 March 2019, the Bank is required to meet on an individual basis a Common Equity Tier 1 ratio of at least 10.25% and a Total Capital Adequacy Ratio of at least 13.75% (Overall Capital Requirements including the Capital Conservation Buffer and the Other Systemically Important Institutions Buffer).

For the year 2019, according to Law 4172/2013 currently in force, the nominal Greek corporate tax rate for credit institutions is 29%, while for the other legal entities is 28% (for the year 2018: 29% corporate tax rate for all legal entities). According to article 23 of Law 4579/2018, which was enacted in December 2018 and amended Law 4172/2013, the Greek corporate tax rate for legal entities other than credit institutions will decrease annually by 1% for each of the next four years starting from 2019, resulting to 25% for the year 2022 and onwards. In addition, dividends distributed as of 1 January 2019 other than intragroup dividends, which under certain preconditions are relieved from both income and withholding tax, are subject to 10% withholding tax.
Further to the information provided in note 15 of the Bank's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018, law 4605/2019 (article 93) voted on 29 March 2019 provided clarifications regarding the treatment of the Bank's withholding tax amounts under Law 2238/1994 (i.e. € 4 million for the year 2008 and € 46 million for the year 2012) in a manner that safeguards the said tax amounts by providing for their offsetting with the Bank's corporate income tax whenever this becomes due.
Law 4605/2019 further addresses the treatment of tax receivables of Law 4046/2012 (for years 2010, 2011 and 2012), which provides for a five year settlement of tax withheld on interest from GGBs/Tbills/corporate bonds with the Greek State's guarantee against the banks' corporate income tax. Law 4605/2019 clarified that any remaining amounts (i.e. not offsettable withholding taxes within the set five year period) will be then offset against all taxes within ten years in equal installments starting from 1 January 2020. The said Law clarification addresses the treatment of the Bank's receivable of € 13 million arising in 2012 from tax withheld on interest from Greek sovereign bonds, Greek T-bills and corporate bonds with Greek State guarantee.
The Bank has in principle 6 open tax years (i.e. 5 years as from the end of the fiscal year within which the relevant tax return should have been submitted). For the open tax years 2013-2015 the Bank was required to obtain an 'Annual Tax Certificate' pursuant to the Law 4174/2013, which is issued after a tax audit is performed by the same statutory auditor or audit firm that audits the annual financial statements. For fiscal years starting from 1 January 2016 and onwards, the 'Annual Tax Certificate' is optional, however, the Bank will continue to obtain such certificate.
The Bank has obtained by external auditors unqualified tax certificates for the open tax years 2013-2017. For the year ended 31 December 2018, the tax audit from external auditors is in progress. In addition, New TT Hellenic Postbank and New Proton Bank, which were merged with the Bank in 2013, have obtained by external auditors unqualified tax certificates with a matter of emphasis for their unaudited by tax authorities periods/tax years 18/1-30/6/2013 and 9/10/2011-31/12/2012, respectively, with regards to potential tax obligations resulting from their carve out. For both cases the Bank has formed adequate provisions.
In accordance with the Greek tax legislation and the respective Ministerial Decisions issued, additional taxes and penalties may be imposed by the Greek tax authorities following a tax audit within the applicable/aforementioned statute of limitations, irrespective of whether an unqualified tax certificate has been obtained from the tax paying company. In light of the above, as a general rule, the right of the Greek State to impose taxes up to tax year 2012 (included) has been time-barred for the Bank at 31 December 2018.

Deferred taxes are calculated on all deductible temporary differences under the liability method as well as for unused tax losses at the rate in effect at the time the reversal is expected to take place.
The movement on deferred tax is as follows:

In the second quarter of 2019, the Bank proceeded with the securitization of certain loan portfolios (Project Pillar and Cairo, note 21). Based on the contractual terms of the issued notes, the related impairment losses were considered as crystalized for tax purposes, resulting in the significant increase of the deferred tax on the above presented category "Losses from disposals and crystallised writeoffs of loans" against a decrease in the category "Impairment/valuation relating to loans and accounting write-offs".
As at 30 June 2019, the deferred tax on the cumulative Bank's unused tax losses was considered as being non-recoverable due to the securitization of certain loan portfolios for the execution of the acceleration plan for the NPEs reduction and was reversed accordingly.
Deferred income tax (charge)/credit is attributable to the following items:

As at 30 June 2019, the Bank recognized net deferred tax assets amounting to € 4.8 bn as follows:
The recognition of the above presented deferred tax assets is based on management's assessment, as at 30 June 2019, that the Bank will have sufficient future taxable profits, against which the deductible temporary differences, as well as the losses from PSI+ and the Greek state's debt buyback program can be utilized. The deferred tax assets are determined on the basis of the tax treatment of each deferred tax asset category, as provided by the applicable tax legislation, the eligibility of carried forward losses for offsetting with future taxable profits, the actual tax results for the year ended 31 December 2018 and the extrapolated tax results for the year ended 31 December 2019 using the actual tax results for the period ended 30 June 2019. Additionally, the Bank's assessment on the recoverability of recognized deferred tax assets is based on (a) the future performance expectations (projections of operating results) and growth opportunities relevant for determining the expected future taxable profits, (b) the expected timing of reversal of the deductible and taxable temporary differences, (c) the probability that the Bank will have sufficient taxable profits in the future, in the same period as the reversal of the deductible and taxable temporary differences (i.e. profits/ losses on sale of investments or other assets, etc.) or in the years into which the tax losses can be carried forward, and (d) the historical levels of the Bank's performance in combination with the previous years' tax losses caused by one off or non-recurring events.
For the period ended 30 June 2019, the Bank has conducted a deferred tax asset (DTA) recoverability assessment based on its threeyear Business Plan that was approved by the Board of Directors in March 2019 and provided outlook of its profitability and capital position for the period up to the end of 2021, taking into consideration the progress in the implementation of the steps/transactions indicated in the Acceleration Plan. The said Business Plan has also been submitted to the Hellenic Financial Stability Fund (HFSF) and to the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM).
For the years beyond 2021, the forecast of operating results was based on the management projections considering the growth opportunities of the Greek economy, the banking sector and the Bank itself.
The level of the abovementioned projections adopted in the Bank's Business Plan is mainly based on assumptions and estimates regarding (a) the further reduction of its funding cost driven by the gradual repatriation of customer deposits replacing more expensive funding sources, (b) the lower loan impairment losses as a result of the gradual improvement of the macroeconomic conditions in Greece and the strategic initiatives for the accelerated reduction of Non-Performing Exposures (NPEs), in line with the NPEs strategy that the Bank has committed to the SSM, (c) the merger with Grivalia Properties R.E.I.C, the acquisition of Piraeus Bank Bulgaria A.D. ('PBB') and the disposal of 80% stake of Financial Planning Services S.A. ('FPS'), (d) the effectiveness of the continuous cost containment initiatives, and (e) the gradual restoration of traditional commission income, such as asset management and network fees and commissions relating with capital markets and investment banking activities.
The implementation of the Bank's Business Plan largely depends on the risks and uncertainties that stem from the macroeconomic environment in Greece (note 2).

As at 30 June 2019, pursuant to the Law 4172/2013, as in force, the Bank's eligible DTAs/deferred tax credits (DTCs) against the Greek State amounted to € 3,886 million. The DTCs will be converted into directly enforceable claims (tax credit) against the Greek State provided that the Bank's after tax accounting result for the year is a loss. In particular, DTCs are accounted for on: (a) the losses from the Private Sector Involvement (PSI) and the Greek State Debt Buyback Program and (b) on the sum of (i) the unamortized part of the crystallized loan losses from write-offs and disposals, (ii) the accounting debt write-offs and (iii) the remaining accumulated provisions and other losses in general due to credit risk recorded up to 30 June 2015.
In accordance with the tax regime, in force, the above crystallized tax losses arising from write-offs and disposals on customers' loans are amortised over a twenty-year period, maintaining the DTC status during all this period, while they are disconnected from the accounting write-offs. Accordingly, the recovery of the Bank's deferred tax asset recorded on loans and advances to customers and the regulatory capital structure are safeguarded, contributing substantially to the achievement of the NPEs reduction targets, through the acceleration of write-offs and disposals.
As of May 2017, according to article 82 of Law 4472/2017, which further amended article 27A of Law 4172/2013, an annual fee of 1.5% is imposed on the excess amount of deferred tax assets guaranteed by the Greek State, stemming from the difference between the current tax rate for credit institutions (i.e. 29%) and the tax rate applicable on 30 June 2015 (i.e. 26%). For the period ended 30 June 2019, an amount of € 3.4 million has been recognized in "Other income/(expenses)".

As at 30 June 2019, the derivative assets and liabilities increased by € 484 million and € 837 million, respectively, compared to 31 December 2018, mainly as a result of the downward movement of the euro interest rate curve. On the same date, the carrying value of the derivatives with the Hellenic Republic amounted to € 1,559 million (31 December 2018: € 1,189 million).

As at 30 June 2019, the Bank's non performing exposures included in loans and advances to customers at amortised cost were reduced to € 12,975 million (31 December 2018: € 15,208 million) driving the Bank NPE ratio to 36.8% (31 December 2018: 40.8%).
In March 2019, Eurobank and the other Greek systemic banks responded to the new regulatory framework and SSM requirements for NPEs management and submitted their new NPE Management Strategy for 2019-21, along with NPE Stock Annual Targets at both bank and, for the first time, group level. Specifically for Eurobank, the new submission has taken into account the NPE reduction acceleration plan that was announced in the context of its transformation plan and aims to achieve a Group NPE ratio of ca. 16% in 2019 and a single digit by 2021.
Furthermore, in March 2019, a new protection scheme on primary residence was voted by the Greek Parliament, which is expected to bolster the Banks' efforts to reduce NPEs through a more effective mechanism to work out troubled loans, a restriction of strategic defaulters and, ultimately, an improvement in payment discipline.
In June 2019, the Bank announced that it has entered into a binding agreement with an international investor for the sale of 95% of the mezzanine and junior notes of a securitization of a residential mortgage loan portfolio of ca. € 2 bn gross book value (Project Pillar comprising primarily NPEs). Eurobank shall retain 100% of the senior notes, as well as 5% of the mezzanine and junior notes. Upon closing of the transaction and as a result of the notes' disposal, the Bank will transfer substantially all risks and rewards of ownership and will derecognize the loan portfolio. Consequently, as at 30 June 2019, the portfolio comprising loans with gross carrying amount of € 1,987 million, which carried an impairment allowance of € 845 million, has been classified as held for sale. The net carrying amount of the loan portfolio amounting to € 1,142 million corresponds to its implied valuation based on the nominal value of the

senior notes and the sale price of the mezzanine notes according to the terms of the above agreement. The closing of the transaction is subject to SSM approval, and is expected to occur within the third quarter of 2019.
Additionally, during the second quarter of 2019, the Bank received a binding offer for the disposal of non-performing corporate loans. Accordingly, loans with gross carrying amount of € 37 million, which carried an impairment allowance of € 29 million, were classified as held for sale, as their sale was considered highly probable.

During the period ended 30 June 2019, the Bank recognized € 40 million gains presented in line 'Gains less losses from investment securities', of which € 33 million resulted from debt securities at FVOCI sale transactions and € 7 million mainly from equity instruments disposals. In the comparative period, the Bank had recognized € 42 million gains, mainly as a result of debt securities at FVOCI sale transactions.
In the first half of 2019, the improvement of the credit spreads of the Hellenic Republic debt, resulted in the increase of the fair value of Greek Government Bonds classified at FVOCI.
In September 2017, the sale of Bancpost S.A., ERB Retail Services IFN S.A. and ERB Leasing IFN S.A. in Romania (Romanian disposal group) was considered highly probable, therefore, as of 30 September 2017 the Bank's direct holdings in Bancpost S.A. and ERB Leasing IFN S.A. were classified as held for sale.
On 3 April 2018, Eurobank Group (the Seller) and Banca Transilvania (BT) (the Purchaser), in line with their pre-sale agreement in November 2017, concluded all the remaining actions and fulfilled all the conditions precedent for the completion of the transfer of the shares held by the Bank in the above companies to BT.
The resulting loss of € 28 million has been recognized in "Other income/(expenses)" until the year ended 31 December 2018 (of which € 4 million gain has been recognised in the period ended 30 June 2018).
According to the relevant Sale Purchase Agreement (SPA), there are specific indemnity clauses based on which the Purchaser could claim specific amounts, subject to certain limitations on total claims.

According to the tax audit assessment communicated to Bancpost S.A. within July 2018, following the completion of the tax audit for the years 2011-2015, the additional taxes to be paid amounted in total to € 40 million, approximately.
The Group is in close cooperation with BT, which is in the process of challenging the tax audit assessment in courts.
In respect of the above, in the first half of 2019, the Bank has recognized an additional provision of € 5 million (€ 3.6 million after tax), while the accumulated provisions, which have been recognized up to 30 June 2019 amounted to € 20 million.
In addition in the second half of 2018, the Romanian National Authority for Consumer Protection (ANPC) imposed three fines totaling € 72 thousand on Bancpost S.A. in connection with complaints raised by certain Bancpost S.A. lending clients, related to portfolios of performing loans which were assigned by Bancpost S.A. to ERB New Europe Funding II (an entity in the Netherlands controlled by Eurobank) in 2008.
In the first half of 2019, the first instance court admitted BT's complaints (as legal successor to Bancpost S.A.) against ANPC in all three aforementioned cases, ruling that the relevant penalties imposed on Bancpost S.A. are cancelled. ANPC already appealed against the first instance rulings in two of the cases and it is expected ANPC will appeal against the first instance ruling also in the third case.
Further information in relation to the sale of Bancpost S.A. and ERB Leasing IFN S.A. is provided in note 25 of the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018.
In January 2019, the Bank and Cerved Credit Management Group S.r.l. (Cerved) signed a binding agreement in the context of which Cerved would acquire the entire share capital of Eurobank Property Services S.A. in Greece (EPS) and its subsidiaries Eurobank Property Services S.A. in Romania and ERB Property Services d.o.o. Beograd in Serbia from Eurobank. EPS Greece has also been appointed as real estate servicer for Eurobank for the next five years with respect to all real estate valuation activities and other services. The transaction was completed in April 2019 via the acquisition from Cerved, for a consideration of € 8 million, of the entire share capital of EPS with a resulting gain of € 6.4 million recognized in "other income/expenses". Further consideration of up to € 5 million in the form of earn – out will be due upon reaching certain economic results and conditions in the timeframe until 2023. The transaction was in line with the Bank's strategy to focus on its core operations, adopting an outsourcing business model in relation to real estate services.
In February 2019, the Bank signed a pre- agreement with third party for the disposal of its participation (100%) in Modern Hoteling. Based on the above agreement, a share capital increase took place in March 2019, which was covered by the purchaser in order for the company's debt to be fully repaid to the Bank. Upon completion of the share capital increase, the Bank's participation in the company decreased to 41% and based on the relevant share purchase agreement signed in the same month, the disposal of the company was completed, with a resulting gain of € 2.1 million recognized in "other income/expenses".
On 7 November 2018, the Bank announced that it had concluded an agreement with Piraeus Bank S.A. for the acquisition of Piraeus Bank Bulgaria A.D. ("PBB"), a subsidiary of Piraeus Bank, by Eurobank's subsidiary in Bulgaria, Eurobank Bulgaria A.D. ("Postbank") (the "Transaction"). In June 2019, the Transaction was completed, after all necessary approvals from the competent authorities were obtained and the Bank's subsidiary Postbank acquired 99.98% of the shares and voting rights of PBB and consequently indirect holding participation of 99.98% in its 100% subsidiary Piraeus Insurance Brokerage EOOD. Further information about the Transaction is provided in note 31 of the consolidated financial statements for the period ended 30 June 2019.


On 5 April 2019, the General Meetings of the Shareholders of Eurobank and Grivalia Properties REIC approved the merger of the two companies. As of that date, the Bank also obtained control of Grivalia subsidiaries as follows:

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 in the principal (or most advantageous) market at the measurement date under current market conditions (i.e. an exit price). When a quoted price for an identical asset or liability is not observable, fair value is measured using another valuation technique that is appropriate in the circumstances, and maximizes the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are developed using market data, such as publicly available information about actual events or transactions, and reflect assumptions that market participants would use when pricing financial instruments, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments, interest rates and yield curves, implied volatilities and credit spreads.
The Bank's financial instruments measured at fair value or at amortized cost for which fair value is disclosed are categorized into the three levels of the fair value hierarchy based on whether the inputs to the fair values are observable or unobservable, as follows:

The fair value hierarchy categorization of the Bank's financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value is presented in the following tables:

The Bank's processes and procedures governing the fair valuations are established by the Group Market Counterparty Risk Sector in line with the Bank's accounting policies. The Bank uses widely recognized valuation models for determining the fair value of common financial instruments that are not quoted in an active market, such as interest and cross currency swaps, that use only observable market data and require little management estimation and judgment. Specifically, observable prices or model inputs are usually available in the market for listed debt and equity securities, exchange-traded and simple over-the-counter derivatives. Availability of

observable market prices and model inputs reduces the need for management judgment and estimation and also reduces the uncertainty associated with determining fair values.
Where valuation techniques are used to determine the fair values of financial instruments that are not quoted in an active market, they are validated against historical data and, where possible, against current or recent observed transactions in different instruments, and periodically reviewed by qualified personnel independent of the personnel that created them. All models are certified before they are used and models are calibrated to ensure that outputs reflect actual data and comparative market prices. Fair values' estimates obtained from models are adjusted for any other factors, such as liquidity risk or model uncertainties, to the extent that market participants would take them into account in pricing the instrument. Fair values also reflect the credit risk of the instrument and include adjustments to take account of the credit risk of the Bank and the counterparty, where appropriate.
Valuation controls applied by the Bank may include verification of observable pricing, re-performance of model valuations, review and approval process for new models and/or changes to models, calibration and back-testing against observable market transactions, where available, analysis of significant valuation movements, etc. Where third parties' valuations are used for fair value measurement, these are reviewed in order to ensure compliance with the requirements of IFRS 13.
OTC derivative financial instruments are fair valued by discounting expected cash flows using market interest rates at the measurement date. Counterparty credit risk adjustments and own credit risk adjustments are applied to OTC derivatives, where appropriate. Bilateral credit risk adjustments consider the expected cash flows between the Bank and its counterparties under the relevant terms of the derivative instruments and the effect of the credit risk on the valuation of these cash flows. As appropriate in circumstances, the Bank considers also the effect of any credit risk mitigating arrangements, including collateral agreements and master netting agreements on the calculation of credit risk valuation adjustments (CVAs). CVA calculation uses probabilities of default (PDs) based on observable market data such as credit default swaps (CDS) spreads, where appropriate, or based on internal rating models. The Bank applies similar methodology for the calculation of debit-value-adjustments (DVAs), when applicable. Where valuation techniques are based on internal rating models and the relevant CVA is significant to the entire fair value measurement, such derivative instruments are categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. A reasonably possible change in the main unobservable input (i.e. the recovery rate), used in their valuation, would not have a significant effect on their fair value measurement.
The Bank determines fair values for debt securities held using quoted market prices in active markets for securities with similar credit risk, maturity and yield, quoted market prices in non active markets for identical or similar financial instruments, or using discounted cash flows method.
Unquoted equity instruments at FVTPL under IFRS 9 are estimated mainly (i) using third parties' valuation reports based on investees' net assets, where management does not perform any further significant adjustments, and (ii) net assets' valuations, adjusted where considered necessary.
Loans and advances to customers which contractual cash flows do not represent solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI failures), are measured mandatorily at fair value through profit or loss. Quoted market prices are not available as there are no active markets where these instruments are traded. Their fair values are estimated on an individual loan basis by discounting the future expected cash flows over the time period they are expected to be recovered, using an appropriate discount rate. Expected cash flows, which incorporate credit risk, represent significant unobservable input in the valuation and as such, the entire fair value measurement is categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. A reasonably possible increase/decrease in those recovery rates by +5%/-5% would increase/decrease the total fair value measurement by € 2.2 million.

The fair value hierarchy categorization of the Bank's financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value on the balance sheet, is presented in the following tables:
| 30 June 2019 | ||

| Debt securities in issue held by third party investors | 2,691 | 2,479 |
| Financial liabilities not measured at fair value | 2,691 | 2,479 |
The assumptions and methodologies underlying the calculation of fair values of financial instruments not measured at fair value are in line with those used to calculate the fair values for financial instruments measured at fair value. Particularly:
For other financial instruments which are short term or re-price at frequent intervals (cash and balances with central banks, due from credit institutions, due to central banks, due to credit institutions and due to customers), the carrying amounts represent reasonable approximations of fair values.

For the purpose of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents comprise the following balances with original maturities of three months or less:
| 30 June | 31 December | |
|---|---|---|
| 2019 | 2018 | |

| (Gains)/losses from investment securities | (40) | (42) |
| Dividends | (1) | (1) |
| Total | 15 | (68) |
As of 1 January 2019, following the adoption of IFRS 16, cash payments for the principal portion of the lease liabilities are classified within financing activities.
The Bank presents the credit related commitments it has undertaken within the context of its lending related activities into the following three categories: a) financial guarantee contracts, which refer to guarantees and standby letters of credit that carry the same credit risk as loans (credit substitutes), b) commitments to extend credit, which comprise firm commitments that are irrevocable over the life of the facility or revocable only in response to a material adverse effect and c) other credit related commitments, which refer to documentary and commercial letters and other guarantees of medium and low risk according to the Regulation No 575/2013/EU.
Credit related commitments are analyzed as follows:
| 30 June | 31 December | |
|---|---|---|
| 2019 | 2018 | |
| € million | € million | |
| Financial guarantees contracts | 964 | 971 |
| Financial guarantees contracts given to Bank SPVs' issuing EMTNs | 83 | 87 |
| Commitments to extend credit | 301 | 172 |
| Other credit related commitments | 271 | 254 |
| Total | 1,619 | 1,484 |
As of 30 June 2019, the credit related commitments within the scope of IFRS 9 impairment requirements amounted to € 4.4 bn, including revocable loan commitments of € 2.2 bn and guarantees of € 0.7 bn relating to the lending activities of banking subsidiaries for which the equivalent pledged amount is presented within "Due from credit institutions". The corresponding allowance for impairment losses of the above credit related commitments amounts to € 294 million (31 December 2018: € 305 million).
In addition, the Bank has issued a sovereign risk financial guarantee of € 0.24 bn (31 December 2018: € 0.24 bn) for which an equivalent amount has been deposited under the relevant pledge agreement (note 17).

As at 30 June 2019, a provision of € 49 million has been recorded for a number of legal proceedings outstanding against the Bank (31 December 2018: € 50 million), as set out in note 22. The said amount includes € 34 million for an outstanding litigation related to the acquisition of New TT Hellenic Postbank S.A. in 2013 (31 December 2018: € 34 million).
Furthermore, in the normal course of its business, the Bank has been involved in a number of legal proceedings, which are either at still a premature or at an advanced trial instance. The final settlement of these cases may require the lapse of a certain time so that the litigants exhaust the legal remedies provided for by the law. Management, having considered the advice of the Legal Services General Division, does not expect that there will be an outflow of resources and therefore does not acknowledge the need for a provision.
Against the Bank various legal remedies and redresses have been filed amongst others in the form of lawsuits, applications for injunction measures, motions to vacate payment orders and appeals in relation to the validity of clauses for the granting of loans in Swiss Francs. A class action has also been filed by a consumer union. To date the vast majority of the judgments issued by the first instance and the appellate Courts have found in favour of the Bank's positions. On the class action, a judgment of the Athens Court of Appeals was issued in February 2018, which was in favour of the Bank and rejected the lawsuit on its merits. The judgment has been challenged by the consumer unions with an appeal which was scheduled to be heard before the Supreme Court on 20 May 2019. The hearing was cancelled due to the elections held on 26 May 2019, while a new date has not been set. As to certain aspects of Swiss Francs loans there was also a pending lawsuit before the Supreme Court at plenary session which was initiated from an individual lawsuit. The Decision issued on 18 April 2019 was in favour of the Bank.
In any event, the Management of the Bank is closely monitoring the developments to the relevant cases so as to ascertain potential accounting implications in accordance with the Bank's accounting policies.
On 26 November 2018, the Boards of Directors ("BoD") of Eurobank Ergasias S.A. ("Eurobank") and Grivalia Properties REIC ("Grivalia") announced that they unanimously decided to commence the merger of the two companies by absorption of Grivalia by Eurobank (the "Merger"). Grivalia was a real estate investment company under Law 2778/1999, as in force, incorporated in Greece. The business of Grivalia along with its subsidiaries (Grivalia group, note 15) and its joint ventures (note 17) was the acquisition, management and leasing out of investment property portfolio located in Greece, in Central Eastern Europe and in Central America.
On 7 February 2019, the European Commission (DG Competition) decided that the Merger is in line with Eurobank's commitments and State Aid rules considering that the strengthening of its capital base through the Merger will enable Eurobank to significantly reduce its non-performing loans in the near future.
On 22 February 2019, the BoD of Eurobank and Grivalia approved the Draft Merger Agreement for the absorption of Grivalia by Eurobank according to the provisions of Greek laws 2166/1993 and 2515/1997, as in force, as well as the applicable Company Law. The proposed share exchange ratio was 15.80000000414930 new Eurobank ordinary registered shares for every 1 Grivalia ordinary registered share, while Eurobank shareholders retain the number of Eurobank ordinary shares they held before the Merger. Accordingly, with respect to the new share capital of Eurobank, 2,185,998,765 shares are allocated to the shareholders of Eurobank and 1,523,163,087 to the shareholders of Grivalia.
On 5 April 2019, the Extraordinary General Meeting of the shareholders of Eurobank resolved, among others (a) the approval of the Merger of the Bank with Grivalia by absorption of the latter by the former, (b) the approval of the Draft Merger Agreement, as it was approved by the BoD of the merging companies and (c) the increase of the share capital of the Bank by € 197 million (note 23).
The Merger was accounted for as a business combination using the purchase method of accounting. The date on which the Shareholders General Meetings of both companies approved the merger, i.e. 5 April 2019 has been determined as the acquisition date as it is considered the date that Eurobank obtained control of Grivalia.
The consideration of the transaction amounting to € 1,094.4 million has been calculated as the fair value of the 1,523,163,087 Eurobank new ordinary shares with reference to Eurobank's share market price on the acquisition date (i.e. € 0.7185).

The fair value measurement of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been provisionally determined and is close to finalization. Upon acquisition, their provisional fair values are presented in the table below:
| Fair value | |
|---|---|
| (Provisional | |
| values) | |
| € million | |
| Assets | |
| Due from credit institutions (1) | 20 |
| Shares in subsidiary undertakings | 141 |
| Property, plant and equipment and investment property | 843 |
| Other assets (2) | 84 |
| Total assets | 1,088 |
| Liabilities | |
| Due to credit institutions | 191 |
| Other liabilities | 25 |
| Total liabilities | 216 |
| Shareholders' equity | 872 |
| Total equity and liabilities | 1,088 |
(1) It includes € 1 million cash and cash equivalents.
(2) It mainly includes investments in associates and joint ventures amounting to € 60 million as well as trade and other receivables of gross carrying amount of € 26 million for which a provision of € 1,7 million has been recognized.
The difference between: (a) the total consideration of € 1,094.4 million and (b) the net identifiable assets acquired (provisional fair values of assets and liabilities as stated above) of € 872 million, results in the recognition of a temporary goodwill of € 222 million, which is expected to be finalized by the year end. This is not deductible for income tax purposes and is included in intangible assets. Following the Merger, Eurobank's equity increased by € 1,087 million net of € 7 million related costs. The Merger enhances Eurobank's capital position (note 4) and its earnings capacity, which in turn enables the acceleration of its NPEs reduction plan. In addition, through the Merger, the Bank is allowed to deploy Grivalia's best in class real estate management skills to its real estate assets, in particular to its repossessed assets, which is critical for the management of NPEs.
The results of Grivalia operations are incorporated in the Bank's financial statements prospectively, as of 1 April 2019. If the acquisition had occurred on 1 January 2019, the Grivalia would have contributed net profit of ca. € 7 million to the Bank for the period from 1 January 2019 up to 31 March 2019. As of 1 April 2019, the revenues from the investment property portfolio acquired from Grivalia are presented within the line "Income from non banking services" of the income statement. The Merger was approved on 17 May 2019 by the Ministry of Finance and Development and was registered, on the same day, in the General Commercial Registry. The trading of the 1,523,163,087 new common voting shares of nominal value € 0.23 each was initiated at Athens Exchange on 23 May 2019.
As a result of the Merger, Fairfax group, which before the Merger held 18.40% and 54.02% in Eurobank and Grivalia, respectively, becomes the largest shareholder in the merged entity with a 33.03% shareholding (note 29).
On 22 February 2019, the Board of Directors of Eurobank also approved the upcoming agreement (SLA), pursuant to article 100 of Greek Law 4548/2018, of the Bank with the company to be incorporated under the name "Grivalia Management Company SA" (the "Company"). The Company was established in March 2019 and is a related party to Eurobank, since a member of the Bank's Board of Directors holdsthe majority (70%) of the shares of the Company and is an executive member of the board of directors of the Company.
The Bank has concluded a 10-year advisory services agreement with Grivalia Management Company S.A. for the combined real estate portfolio of the merged entities, that came into force following the completion of the Merger. The related services assigned to the Company under this agreement mainly refer to advisory services relating to the acquisition, transfer, lease, management development and strategic planning of the management of real estate assets, including the preparation of the annual budget and the

supervision of Eurobank's contractors and advisors. Following a specific mandate, the Company will also undertake certain implementation actions. According to the SLA, total fees that will be charged by the Company based on cost and performance criteria, including a minimum service fee of € 9.35 million for the combined own used and investment property portfolio and a fee related to repossessed assets, shall not exceed € 12 million (excluding VAT) per annum.
Further information on the above transactions is provided in the regulatory announcements on the Bank's website dated 26 November 2018 and 8 February, 25 February, 1 March, 5 April and 17 May 2019.
In the context of the NPE reduction acceleration plan, as announced in November 2018, the BoD of the Bank ("Demerged Entity") on 28 June 2019 decided the initiation of the hive down process of the banking sector of Eurobank and its transfer to a new companycredit institution that will be established ("the Beneficiary").

In particular, the demerger will involve the hive-down of the banking business sector of Eurobank, to which the assets and the liabilities, as described on the transformation balance sheet of the hived-down sector as at 30 June 2019 ("Transformation Date"), are included.
