3Q 2016 key takeaways for KBC Group STRONG BUSINESS PERFORMANCE IN 3Q16 Good net result of 629m EUR in 3Q16 (and 1.74bn EUR in 9M16) o Good commercial bank-insurance franchises in our core markets and core activities o Slight q-o-q increase in customer loan volumes in most of our core countries o Slightly lower net interest income and net interest margin q-o-q o Higher net fee and commission income q-o-q, despite net asset management outflows o Lower net gains from financial instruments at fair value, lower realised AFS gains and higher net other income o Combined ratio of 94% YTD. Excellent sales of non-life products, but decline in sales of life insurance products o Good cost management resulted in a cost/income ratio of 57% YTD adjusted for specific items o Excellent, but unsustainably low level of impairment charges. Net loan provision release of 28m EUR in 3Q16 in Ireland. The impairment guidance for Ireland is updated towards a release of a 10m-50m EUR range for FY16 SOLID CAPITAL AND ROBUST LIQUIDITY POSITIONS o Common equity ratio (B3 phased-in) of 15.1% based on the Danish Compromise at end 9M16, which clearly exceeds the minimum capital requirements set by the ECB (9.75%) and the NBB (0.5%), i.e. an aggregate 10.25% for 2016. The B3 fully loaded common equity ratio stood at 15.3% based on the Danish Compromise at end 9M16 o Fully loaded B3 leverage ratio, based on current CRR legislation, amounted to 6.2% at KBC Group o Continued strong liquidity position (NSFR at 123% and LCR at 137%) at end 9M16 o An interim dividend of 1 EUR per share (an advance payment on the total 2016 dividend) will be paid on 18 November 2016 3

Key investment highlights KBC is one of the strongest capitalised and most capital generative financials in Europe Compared with other European financials to have issued from their Holding Companies, KBC has one of the strongest leverage ratios and one of the highest CET1 and total capital positions According to market estimates, KBC generates at least an approximated additional 2% of CET1 on a yearly basis before dividends Proven track record of prudent capital management (e.g. shareholder loans (2013), capital increase (2012), final repayment of YES (2015)) Given its already strong capitalisation and liquidity, KBC currently foresees relatively limited amounts of senior debt in the future to reach MREL targets (at group level) and/or to complete its funding needs A really diversified holding company and the absence of ring-fencing helps to mitigate the risks of structural subordination of Senior debt of KBC Group compared to other issuers 44

Key messages on KBC s covered bond programme KBC s covered bonds are backed by strong legislation and superior collateral KBC s covered bonds are rated Aaa/AAA (Moody s/fitch) Cover pool: Belgian residential mortgage loans Strong Belgian legislation inspired by German Pfandbriefen law KBC has a disciplined origination policy 2009 to 2016 residential mortgage loan losses below 4 bp CRD and UCITS compliant / 10% risk-weighted KBC already issued 8 successful benchmark covered bonds in different maturity buckets First covered bond matured in August 2016 The covered bond programme is considered as an important funding tool Sound economic picture provides strong support for Belgian housing market Private savings ratio of approx. 12 % Belgian unemployment is significantly below the EU average Demand still outstrips supply 56

KBC s disciplined origination leads to low arrears and extremely low loan losses BELGIUM SHOWS A SOLID PERFORMANCE OF MORTGAGES Arrears have been very stable over the past 10 years. Arrears in Belgium are low due to: Cultural aspects, stigma associated with arrears, importance attached to owning one s property High home ownership also implies that the change in house prices itself has limited impact on loan performance Well established credit bureau and surrounding legislation Housing market environment (no large house price declines) AND KBC HAS EXTRAORDINARY LOW LOAN LOSSES 57

Solvency II ratio Solvency II ratio Solvency II ratio without cap of the NBB (ratio comparable with European peers) 1Q16 2Q16 3Q16 210% 208% 198% Solvency II ratio with cap of the NBB* 195% 187% 170% On 25 April 2016, the NBB decided to impose a cap on the loss absorbing capacity of deferred taxes in the calculation of the required capital with retroactive application from 1 January 2016 onwards*. The introduction of such absolute cap deviates both from the European Solvency II regulation and the practice of most other European regulators and increases the required capital As a result of this gold-plating by the NBB, the formal Solvency II ratio came down from 198% to 170% for 3Q16 * On 25 April 2016, the NBB published a circular determining the treatment of the loss absorbing capacity of deferred taxes in the Solvency II calculation. This caps the loss absorbing capacity of deferred taxes for Belgian insurance companies to the net deferred tax liability recognised on the economic balance sheet 74 The reduction (-10%-points) in the Solvency II ratio without this cap was mainly the result of lower interest rates and lower corporate spreads in combination with an update of the Volatility Adjustment imposed by EIOPA. The stronger reduction of the Solvency II ratio with the application of the cap (-17%-points) is due to a lower cap as a result of the reduction of the available Deferred Tax Liabilities on the economic balance sheet for 3Q16

Loss Absorption in KBC Bank Implementation of the BRRD in Belgium Hierarchy of Claims in Belgium Junior Deposits Derivatives Structured Notes Covered Deposits Individual & SME Deposits Internal Sub Loan Tier 2 AT1 CET1 Senior Unsecured 1. The BRRD has been transposed to a large extent by the Act of 25 April 2014 on the legal status and supervision of credit institutions ("The Banking Act") which applies since May-2015, with the exception of some major provisions, such as the bail-in tool. Some provisions will be further implemented by a Royal Decree ( RD ): Bail-in mechanism and MREL requirement of the BRRD: RD was published in the Belgian Official Journal 29 December 2015 and entries into force as from 1 January 2016. However, the resolution strategy and MREL target for KBC are assumptions and have not been determined by the Resolution Authority Group dimension of the BRRD: transposition is currently under preparation 2. The competent authorities are Supervision authority (KBC Bank NV, KBC Group NV): ECB/NBB. Resolution authority (KBC Bank NV, KBC Group NV): Single Resolution Board as from 1 January 2016. Competent authority for conduct supervision of financial institutions and intermediaries (KBC Bank NV): FSMA. 3. The hierarchy of claims in Belgium is in line with the BRRD as provided for in art. 48 BRRD and applies losses accordingly. Creditors are protected by the No Creditor Worse Off ( NCWO ) principle which ensures that creditors in resolution can t be worse-off than in normal insolvency proceedings (art 34(1) BRRD). 4. KBC plans on on-lending senior unsecured issued out of KBC Group NV as subordinated instruments at KBC Bank NV to ensure the on-loan would only take losses after Tier 2 securities. Additionally KBC Bank NV s funding needs in senior unsecured are expected to be moderate going forward 75
