PBK's balance sheet has gaps vs. the banking sector, mainly due to the large share of liquid assets maintained for strategic reasons

PBK balance sheet structure

  • The relative large share of liquid assets is maintained for a strategic reason, i.e. potential acquisitions in a consolidating market
  • This in turn is the main driver behind PBK's 41% Loan-to-Deposit ratio, virtually half of the banking sector's 81%
  • In the short term and recent history this implied a significant toll on the P&L; yet 2 important trends – growth of market rates and increased lending – are expected to correct this in the medium term

While high liquidity has been maintained for strategic reasons, loans have not grown at full potential yet

• A share of that unrealized income has been compensated by achieving Budgeted

OPEX, in the context of a number of costs un-budgeted in connection with potential

the acquisition of a performing EUR 100 million portfolio

acquisitions

CoR over budget, with gains postponed for '18 [EUR '000]

  • CoR COR has been higher than expected due to delays in workout transactions, budgeted to occur by the end of 2017
  • Given the complexity of legal procedures, we expect part of the positive impacts to occur in 2018
