Taiwan Business Bank Business Operation Report

Despite the support for continued global economic recovery in 2014 provided by such positive factors as the stable growth of the American economy, the fall in oil prices, and continued loose-money policies in the major economies, the impact of abnormal weather early in the year, the Ukraine crisis and other geopolitical conflicts, faltering recovery in the euro zone, the blow to domestic demand in Japan caused by the consumption tax hike, and the slowdown in economic growth in China encumbered the momentum for economic expansion and global growth for the year fell below expectations. According to data released by Global Insight in February 2015, the global economy grew by only 2.8% in 2014.

In the first quarter of 2014, the upturn in domestic corporate profits and the payment of increased year-end and performance bonuses bolstered stock-market transactions in the first quarter of 2014, and income and wealth effects stimulated a growth in private consumption; this, plus a growth in exports of electronic products, machinery, and basic metals, pushed Taiwan's economic growth rate for the quarter to 3.41%. The rate rose to 3.87% in the second quarter, mainly because of a gradual improvement in employment and a continued rise in salaries. In addition, both the value and volume of stock-market transactions increased, supporting an ongoing warming up of private consumption, and the addition of new flight routes along with the establishment of new budget airlines by the aviation industry led to a continuing increase in private investment. There was also an ongoing growth in exports of electronic products, machinery, and basic metals. In the third quarter car dealers marketed their products vigorously, adding impetus to car sales, and the first half's momentum for growth in private consumption continued. In the area of private investment, domestic airlines continued increasing their fleets and semiconductor companies vigorously expanded capacity, pushing the economic growth rate to 4.32%. In the fourth quarter, consumer confidence suffered a short-term setback from a rash of food safety incidents; but an increase in employment fostered a stable growth in private consumption, and investment in advanced processes by semiconductor companies and in the installation of 4G network equipment by telecoms operators brought about an increased growth in private investment and the continuation of growth momentum, resulting in a growth rate of 3.35%. According to the Directorate General of Budget, Accounting and Statistics, Taiwan's economic growth rate for the year as a whole was 3.74%. With the global economy growing at a moderate rate and commodity prices remaining stable, the Central Bank kept the policy interest rate unchanged in 2014. The New Taiwan dollar evidenced a slight rising trend against the U.S. dollar in the first half of 2014, but the U.S. dollar strengthened in the fourth quarter following the announcement that the policy of quantitative easing (QE) would come to an end in America. In addition,

the depreciation of the Japanese yen brought on a depreciation of other Asian currencies. At the end of the year the NT dollar was trading at NT\$31.718 to the U.S. dollar, a 5.57% depreciation compared with the end of 2013. The average exchange rate for all of 2014 was NT\$30.368: US\$1, down 1.97% compared with the previous year.

With the stable growth of the American economy, the drop in international oil prices, and quantitative easing policies in Europe and Japan, major international forecasting institutions predict that global economic performance in 2015 will be better than the previous year, and Taiwan's economy is expected to continue its stable recovery under the influence of the global economic upturn and the decline in international oil prices. The island's government has constantly implemented financial liberalization and expanded deregulation of the financial industry in recent years, and has vigorously helped financial businesses deploy throughout Asia while promoting financial import substitution, expanding market scope, and enhancing competitiveness, thereby expanding the space for development of the banking industry. TBB will carry forward with last year's profit growth momentum, reinforce operating performance, and enhance the loan-deposit interest gap and fee income with the aim of achieving our profit growth target and realizing our four main operating principles—pursuit of business performance, heightening of employee value-added, emphasis on shareholders' interests, and fulfillment of corporate social responsibility—as we advance toward the ranks of outstanding banks and create another record of brilliant business performance.
