Background

Since 4th November 2014 UBI Banca is under the ECB’s Single Supervisory Mechanism.

UBI Banca is a joint stock company as from the 12th of October 2015. The transformation from co-operative was approved by a general meeting of the shareholders on 10th October 2015, after a recent Law dated March 2015 established that cooperative banks with total assets above 8€ bln must transform into Joint Stock Companies.

UBI Banca is listed on the Milan Stock Exchange and included , among others, in the FTSE/MIB and in the FTSE4Good indexes.

UBI Banca’s governance model is based on a “dualistic” system. Under this dualistic governance system, the shareholders appoint a Supervisory Board (strategy and supervision). The current Supervisory Board was appointed on 2nd April 2016 by the General Meeting of Shareholders of UBI Banca (15 members) for the 3-year period 2016-18.

The Supervisory Board, in turn, appoints a Management Board (day-by-day management of the bank), currently composed by 7 members.

The net normalised result for 2017 is expected to grow substantially, facilitated, amongst other things, by the conclusion of the “Single Bank” project ahead of schedule

The overall trend for operating income is one of growth compared with 2016 as a result of the combined effect of the following main components: growth in net interest income notwithstanding a smaller

contribution from the proprietary portfolio, also due to the forecast further reduction in its dimension. An improvement in net interest income from customers is expected, benefiting from a recovery in volumes of lending, the further re-composition of direct funding towards less costly items and the positive impact of the expected achievement of volumes of lending targets for TLTRO2;

continued growth in fee and commission income from indirect funding with a greater contribution from the “running” component.

The positive conclusion of the recent trade union agreement and the encouraging result for applications to the “Solidarity Fund” (over 1,250 applications received) make it possible to improve the target for the containment of recurring operating expenses.

The particularly low risk attaching to the performing

portfolio, the action to increase coverage undertaken in the first half of 2016 and the continuation of the reduction in inflows of new non-performing loans and in the stock of NPEs as a consequence, should confirm the substantial reduction in loan losses forecast in the 2017 Business Plan.

As concerns the operation to acquire the 3 Target Bridge

Institutions, the pre-closing conditions are taking place with the expected modalities.
