19 Why is Europe now growing more strongly? Underpinning of continued healthy growth in more competitive Northern and Eastern European economies Structural reforms in a number of economies especially Spain Process of repairing bank balance sheets is further advanced Confidence has recovered following euro crisis, with growth now returning to the worst affected economy Greece Political systems have been resilient to shocks, and Macron government in France has restored centrist Franco-German leadership to EU Sustained fall in unemployment which has continued for five years Low inflation and relatively strong euro have boosted consumer purchasing power, supporting growth of domestic demand

22 Brexit much work still needed on the key issues Payment: Future contributions to EU Budget People: Status of EU citizens in UK and vice versa, and impact of new controls on migration into UK Trade: How closely aligned will the UK be with the Single Market, the Customs Union and how will this impact key sectors, including financial services? Transition: How long before significant changes take effect? Ireland: Solving the North/South border issue

23 Global and European economic outlook Global growth should continue at a reasonably healthy rate through 2018 and into 2019, with all major regions (Asia, North America and Europe) contributing Within Europe, UK likely to continue to underperform due to Brexit uncertainty. Economic prospects are favourable for most other economies A successful programme of economic reform in France under Macron could deliver a further boost to the European economy Interest rates set to continue to rise in US, and BoE and ECB likely to follow with gradual and cautious upward moves, in the absence of major economic shocks Key threat to this benign global outlook is that rivalry and rising tension between major powers (US/China/Russia/EU) spills over into a new wave of global protectionism

37 Update on China Richard Thompson Global Leader Financial Services Deals PwC (UK) Ted Osborn Business Recovery Services Leader PwC (China & Hong Kong)

38 China s NPL levels keep rising but worries that China will have a credit crunch have dissipated ~$1.2 trillion % ~$1.5 trillion Dec 2016 Dec 2017 Banks AMCs

39 A typical China NPL portfolio US$ 100m - 250m ~$120m to ~$150m Loans to private enterprises generally small to medium enterprises 1.2x 1.5x gross collection multiple Typically between individual debtors One province portfolios Typical portfolio pricing Estimated cash recoveries Pledged real estate drives value Maybe a handful of unsecured assets

40 More and more foreign funds have closed deals over the last months Investor Shoreline Oaktree Lone Star Goldman Sachs PAG Bain Capital Credit Blackstone Number of China deals closed Several portfolios 4 portfolios 3 portfolios 4 portfolios 2 portfolios 1 portfolio 1 portfolio

41 Six things to keep in mind if you are considering investing 1. Real estate drives recovery value and collateral is sold via court auctions likely no negotiation with debtor 2. PRC legal process is predictable 24 months from lawsuit to enforcement to recovery 3. Foreign investors can only own loans. Real estate collateral must be sold and cannot be taken over by investors 4. No nationwide servicers rely on boutique law firms for recovery. Servicers need constant managing 5. Portfolios are all sold via managed auctions investors in pole position usually win 6. Domestic investors are the sleeping giant get in now
