1 Research Update: Germany-Based UniCredit Bank AG Upgraded To 'BBB+/A-2' On Improving Conditions At The Italian Parent; Outlook Developing Primary Credit Analyst: Benjamin Heinrich, CFA, FRM, Frankfurt +49 (0) ; Secondary Contact: Harm Semder, Frankfurt (49) ; Table Of Contents Overview Rating Action Rationale Outlook Ratings Score Snapshot Related Criteria Related Research Ratings List NOVEMBER 3,

2 Research Update: Germany-Based UniCredit Bank AG Upgraded To 'BBB+/A-2' On Improving Conditions At The Overview Following the upgrade of UniCredit Bank AG's parent company UniCredit SpA (BBB/Stable/A-2) on Oct. 31, 2017, we consider the potential negative impact of the parent on the German subsidiary's creditworthiness has declined. We are raising our long-term rating on UniCredit Bank AG to 'BBB+' from 'BBB' and affirming our 'A-2' short-term rating. We are also raising by one notch our ratings on UniCredit Bank AG's senior unsecured debt and our ratings on the bank's and its subsidiaries' subordinated debt instruments. The developing outlook indicates that we could affirm, raise, or lower our ratings on the bank, depending on the resolution strategy decided for UniCredit Group. Rating Action On Nov. 3, 2017, S&P Global Ratings raised its long-term issuer credit ratings on Germany-based UniCredit Bank AG and its subsidiary, UniCredit Luxembourg S.A. to 'BBB+' from 'BBB'. The outlooks on both banks are developing. We also affirmed our 'A-2' short-term issuer credit ratings on these banks. At the same time, we raised to 'BBB+' from 'BBB' our issue ratings on UniCredit Bank's senior unsecured instruments, and raised to 'BBB' from 'BBB-' our issue ratings on instruments classified as senior subordinated debt. We have also raised by one notch our ratings on UniCredit Bank's other subordinated and junior subordinated issues. Rationale The upgrade reflects our view that the potential negative impact on UniCredit Bank's creditworthiness from pressure on its Italy-based parent company UniCredit SpA has reduced following the parent's upgrade to 'BBB/A-2' from 'BBB-/A-3' on Oct. 31, 2017 (see "Positive Actions Taken On Italian Banks On Reduced Economic Risks And Sovereign Upgrade"). We have removed the one-notch downward adjustment that used to capture the risk that weaker credit conditions at the parent level might negatively affect the higher-rated German subsidiary. The upgrade also stems from our continued expectation that NOVEMBER 3,

3 UniCredit Bank and its parent would be subject to separate resolution processes, which allows us to rate UniCredit Bank AG above its parent. We recognize the bank's solid business in Germany, particularly in corporate and commercial banking, and regard its capital and earnings as a strength that continues to support its franchise. We forecast that the risk-adjusted capital (RAC) ratio will remain slightly higher than 10% over the next two years, which is consistent with strong capital and earnings. We continue to see material downside risk to this projection, however, which we capture in our risk position assessment. Our weak risk position assessment also continues to include further potential risks from strong operational links with its lower-rated parent and across the group, particularly in corporate and investment banking. In our view, due to the bank's relatively higher reliance on short- and long-term wholesale funding compared with the average for German banks, we consider the bank's funding and liquidity metrics to be weaker than its main peers', but still in line with our current average funding and adequate liquidity assessments. The bank's stand-alone credit profile (SACP) is at 'bbb+'. We also raised by one notch our issue ratings on the bank's senior unsecured debt. And we raised by one notch our ratings on subordinated debt issued by UniCredit Bank AG and its subsidiaries because, after the bank's upgrade, the ratings on subordinated instruments are no longer constrained by the issuer credit rating being lower than the SACP. The long-term rating does not benefit from additional loss-absorbing capacity (ALAC) support because we remain uncertain as to whether UniCredit Bank's ALAC buffer will sustainably exceed our 5% threshold for a one-notch uplift over the next two years. Moreover, we don't yet know how the EU's Single Resolution Board (SRB) will determine the resolution strategy for UniCredit, an internationally active, cross-border banking group. The ALAC buffer currently stands at around 3.9%. Outlook The developing outlook indicates that we could affirm, raise, or lower our ratings on UniCredit Bank over the next months, during which time we expect that the resolution strategy for UniCredit Group, including the level and positioning of bail-in buffers, will become clear. Downside scenario The implementation of a more unified, single resolution process for the group could mean that we would no longer rate UniCredit Bank higher than its Italian parent UniCredit SpA, leading to a downgrade of UniCredit Bank, all other factors remaining equal. Moreover, we could lower the ratings if we saw a change in UniCredit Bank's capital policy, as potentially indicated by a sharp weakening of its RAC ratio. Any further weakening of the bank's liquidity and funding profile or a marked increase in upstreaming to UniCredit SpA could NOVEMBER 3,

4 also trigger a downgrade. Upside scenario We could raise the ratings if remaining uncertainties regarding the resolution process are clarified, and it becomes clear that: The SRB would employ separate resolution processes for UniCredit Bank and its parent; and UniCredit Bank demonstrates a sustainable ALAC buffer that exceeds our minimum 5% threshold for a one-notch uplift.
