During first half of the year 2010 there was a change in SEB Bank Management Board. In June 2010 SEB Supervisory Council has appointed Virginijus Doveika to the member of Bank Management Board and Vytautas Sinius has resigned from the Bank Management Board members.
In SEB bank's view of over the coming quarters the Lithuanian banking system should witness a gradual recovery. However, cautious optimism about Lithuania's economic recovery is hindered by several reasons, i.e. the continued deterioration of households' financial situation and complicated position of most domestic-oriented companies. Further recovery of Lithuania's economy will depend to a large extent on development of export markets and the situation on global financial markets.
One of the key priorities of the Bank is to help its customers to survive the economic downturn. The Bank will continue to search for the best solutions with a special focus on aiding those clients, who face problems paying their mortgages for their first family home.
The SEB Bank Group manages its risks in a centralised way. The main types of risks managed by the bank are credit, liquidity, market risks, which include currency rate fluctuations, interest rate risk and share price risk, as well as operational risk. Risk is managed adhering to the internal and the prudential requirements of the Bank of Lithuania. During first half of the year 2010, the Bank met all the prudential requirements of the Bank of Lithuania.
Issuer risk. The Bank's obligations against investors are not additionally secured by any guarantee and/or in any other manner, therefore investor accepts the Bank's (operational) risk related to political, economic, technical and technological as well as social factors.
Credit risk. The Group assumes credit risk, i.e., the risk of another counterparty being unable to duly meet its obligations against the Bank. The risk is assessed based on credit equivalents calculated depending on the type of a financial deal. The Group Credit Policy is applied adhering to the principle that any lending transaction may be executed only subject to credit analysis. Taking into consideration the complexity of the deal and customer's creditworthiness, various credit risk management measures are applied.
The Group loans are assessed individually as well as in total, taking into account its total portfolio. Assessment of the portfolio of homogeneous loan groups with similar risk characteristics, i.e. natural persons' mortgage loans, consumer loans, payment card account overdraft limits, also, loans to small enterprises, is performed. Special provisions for homogenous loans are formed by applying statistical methodology based on historical data on any defaults of the borrowers and sustained losses within the corresponding homogeneous loan group. Individually assessed borrowers are assigned to a relevant risk class, based on which special provisions requirement is established. The Group classifies its individually assessed borrowers based on 16 risk classes.
Risks are managed by carrying out regular analysis of the borrower's ability to meet its obligations: to repay the loan and pay interest. The Group establishes credit risk limits per single borrower, a group of borrowers or per economic activities. Borrower credit risk, taking into consideration the risk class assigned to the borrower, is revised on a regular basis, no less than once a year. Analysis of the borrower, borrower group and industry sector risks is also performed on regular basis.
Applied credit portfolio concentration risk limits are as follows:
- maximum exposure per single borrower must not exceed 25 per cent of the Bank's/ Group's equity, and the total amount of large exposures may not exceed 800 per cent of the Bank's/ Group's equity;
- total loans issued by the bank to its parent company, to other subsidiary companies of the parent company or the bank's subsidiary companies per single borrower may not exceed 75 per cent of the bank's equity, if the Bank of Lithuania performs consolidated supervision of the entire financial group. If the Bank of Lithuania does not perform any consolidated supervision of the entire financial group, the maximum exposure per each SEB Group company may not exceed 20 per cent of the bank's equity.

Market risk. It is the risk of a loss of future net income due to changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and share prices (including the price risk in case of sales of assets or closing of positions).
Interest rate risk is managed by forecasting market interest rates and making relevant adjustments so that there is no mismatch in the assets and liabilities within the revaluation periods. The Bank applies interest rate risk management methodologies that help to measure the Group's sensitivity to interest rate changes by computing the impact to yearly net interest income (ΔNII) and net effect on the market value of shareholders equity (delta 1%) in case of a parallel shift by one percentage point in the yield curve.
Foreign exchange risk exposure is defined by two measures: single open foreign currency position against the and aggregate open currency position - the larger one of all summed-up long and short open currency positions. Foreign exchange risk measures include net exposure of spot and forward positions, FX futures, including gold, the delta equivalent position of FX options and other balance sheet items. The currency risk control is ensured by monitoring the risk exposure against the limits established for single open currency position. The bank adheres to the open currency position limits established by the Bank of Lithuania: 1) maximum open single currency position may not exceed 15 per cent of equity; 2) maximum total open position may not exceed 25 per cent of equity.
| The Group | 31.12.2009 | 30.06.2010 |
|---|---|---|
| Maximum open single currency position | 103.53% | 133.25% |
| Maximum aggregate open currency position | 1.78% | 2.29% |
Share price risk is managed by establishing limits that describe acceptable share price risk, taking into consideration any possible losses related to market price volatility, by establishing the structure of the share portfolio.
Liquidity risk. Liquidity risk is the risk that the bank may be unable to timely meet its financial obligations and/or, aiming to meet them, it may have to sell its financial assets and/or close positions and will sustain losses due to a lack of liquidity in the market.
The Group adheres to conservative liquidity risk management policy that ensures adequate fulfilment of its current financial obligations, the level of obligatory reserves with the Bank of Lithuania, liquidity ratio higher than that established by the Bank of Lithuania and solvency capacity under unforeseen unfavourable circumstances. The liquidity risk management system is based on the analysis of actual and forecasted cash flows.
Changes in the Bank's liquidity ratio over recent years are shown in the table below.
| Ratio | Bank | |
|---|---|---|
| 31.12.2009 | 30.06.2010 | |
| Liquidity ratio (at least 30%) | 60.31% | 56.06% |
- In 2007, the Bank of Lithuania eliminated the Group's liquidity report.
Operational risk. Operational risk is defined as the risk of a loss and good-will / credibility impairment due to external environment events or internal factors. External environment events: dissemination of adverse rumours, failures in the activities of the main suppliers, natural calamities, criminal third-party actions, etc. Internal factors: internal control drawbacks, inefficient procedures, inappropriate or inappropriately designed IT systems or technologies, non-compliance with laws or agreements, falsifications or any other illegal actions made by senior managers or employees. For the management of business process risk the Group uses advanced operational risk management instruments, strictly adheres to the envisaged policies, manuals and other requirements that ensure internal control.. The Bank applies the SEB Group methodologies and IT solutions to identify, analyse, report and manage risks and compile reports. For risk management purposes, Key Risk Indicators (KRI) are used, which indicate changes in risk levels in business areas or processes. Operational risk self-assessments are performed by the main business subdivisions themselves. Operational risk management system was launched in the year 2006. It enables all staff of the Group to register the operational risk incidents, to envisage and carry out actions plans for the elimination of operational risk sources.
Business risk. It is the risk of a decrease in income due to any unforeseen shortage of regular income that is usually determined by a drop in business volumes, price pressure or competition. Business risk also includes reputation risk, which is a risk of a decrease in income from ordinary activities and which may arise due to any adverse rumours about the bank or about the banking sector generally.
Strategy risk. It is the risk caused by unfavourable or erroneous business solutions, improper implementation of decisions or insufficient response to any political changes or changes in the regulatory acts or the banking sector.

As of 30 June 2010 the Bank's capital adequacy ratio was $15.70\%$ (as of 31 December 2009 - $12.94\%$ ) and the SEB Group's capital adequacy ratio was $14.15\%$ (as of 31 December 2009 - $11.58\%$ ) SEB Bank and SEB Group was in compliance with all Bank of Lithuania requirements).
