CESEE DELEVERAGING AND CREDIT MONITOR 1 May 11, 217 Key developments in BIS Banks External Positions and Domestic Credit and Key Messages from the CESEE Bank Lending Survey The external positions of BIS reporting banks in Central, Eastern, and Southeastern Europe (CESEE) are generally stabilizing, with their exposure vis-à-vis the region declining modestly by about.5 percent of GDP in 216H2, compared to.3 percent of GDP in 216H1. Excluding Russia and Turkey, BIS reporting banks positions were only marginally lower by.2 percent of GDP in 216H2. Outside the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), credit continues to recover, while following a sharp slowdown, credit growth in the CIS and Turkey is stabilizing at low single digits, as the pace of credit contraction in CIS countries eases. The results of the Bank Lending Survey for the CESEE region, covering the period from October 216 to March 217, show that international banks continued to discriminate among countries of operations on the basis of differentiated returns, market potential, and positioning. Regional demand for credit continued to increase over the last six months, while supply standards did not ease. Group asset quality, domestic capital, and changes in regulation weigh negatively on subsidiaries supply stance. Subsidiaries non-performing loan (NPL) ratios continued to decline. 2 External positions of BIS reporting banks in CESEE declined modestly in 216H2. After small declines in the second and third quarters of 216, BIS reporting banks reduced their external positions vis-à-vis CESEE countries by.4 percent of GDP in 216Q4, resulting in a cumulative reduction of.5 percent of GDP in 216H2 (Figure 1). Excluding Russia and Turkey, external positions of BIS reporting banks declined marginally by.2 percent of GDP in 216H2. The cumulative reduction in external positions since 28Q3 now stands at 1 Prepared by the staff of the international financial institutions participating in the Vienna Initiative s Steering Committee. It is based on the BIS Locational Banking Statistics released on April 21, 217 (http://www.bis.org/statistics/bankstats.htm) and the latest results of the EIB Bank Lending Survey (BLS) for the CESEE region. 2 A full report, including country chapters, for the autumn H1 217 survey release will be published in May 217 on the EIB website (http://www.eib.org/about/economic-research/surveys.htm) as well as the Vienna Initiative webpage.

2 9.6 percent of regional GDP, and at 15.8 percent excluding Russia and Turkey at the end of 216 (Figure 2). Outside the CIS, more than half of the countries saw reductions in foreign bank funding in 216H2 (Figure 3, Table 1). Foreign bank funding (in percent of GDP) increased in Albania, Belarus, Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Czech Republic, Estonia, and Montenegro, but declined elsewhere. The largest declines were observed in Bulgaria, Croatia, Macedonia, Turkey, and Ukraine. In Russia, Poland, Serbia, and Slovenia, external positions remained largely flat. Declines in foreign bank funding were mostly driven by reductions in claims on banks, particularly in Macedonia, Moldova, and Ukraine (Figure 4, Table 2). Meanwhile, claims on the non-financial sector declined in Croatia, Hungary, Latvia, Serbia, and Ukraine, but increased significantly in Albania (in percent of 216Q3 positions). The balance of payments (BoP) data suggest additional sources of funding to CESEE countries in 216H2 (Figure 5a&b). BoP data show significant inflows of other liabilities, despite BIS data showing a reduction in foreign bank funding, particularly in 216Q4, suggesting more diversified sources of external funding in contrast to past trends. BoP data suggest notably larger inflows into Bosnia and Herzegovina, Lithuania, Moldova, Montenegro, Serbia, Slovak Republic, and Slovenia, while outflows were larger than implied by BIS data in Belarus, Estonia, Latvia. 3 In comparison with external positions, foreign claims of BIS banks on CESEE appear to have declined more sharply in 216H2. Foreign claims, which include cross-border claims and total local claims of foreign banks affiliates, have generally traced developments in external positions and stabilized since 215Q1, but declined considerably in 216H2 (Figures 6&7). The largest declines were observed in Macedonia, Poland, Turkey and Ukraine. Credit developments have turned more positive since mid-215. Outside the CIS and Turkey, total credit to the private sector continues to recover, while the steep slowdown in credit growth in the CIS and Turkey observed since 214 appears to have stabilized at low single digits (Figure 8), reflecting easing of credit contraction in the CIS excluding Russia. In January 217, credit contractions outside the CIS were observed only in Albania, Croatia, Hungary, and Slovenia, while credit growth reached robust levels in the Czech Republic, Estonia, Lithuania, and Montenegro, although lending to non-financial corporations remains relatively subdued in several countries (Figure 9). 3 Referenced data comprise other investment liabilities in the BoP (e.g., loans and deposits, trade credit, and investments other than FDI, portfolio investment, and financial derivatives). They correspond in terms of coverage to BIS-reporting banks external claims based on locational banking statistics. The data for Belarus, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia, Moldova, Russia, Serbia, Turkey, and Ukraine are on net basis, and for the rest of the countries are on gross basis. In general, BoP statistics do not report flows by external creditors, making direct comparison with the BIS statistics difficult in terms of the source of reduction by creditor.

3 CESEE banks continue to experience robust deposit growth, while gradually reducing their loan to deposit ratios. Domestic deposit growth (year on year) in 216Q4 remained strong in most countries, balancing the decline in parent bank funding and raising overall bank funding, except in Croatia, Belarus, Latvia and Ukraine (Figure ). This helped the average loan-to-deposit ratio for the whole region decline further, reaching 3 percent in January 217(Figure 11). Key Messages from the CESEE Bank Lending Survey Restructuring of global activities has continued for some banking groups, albeit less intensely than in 213-216 on average. Some banking groups have continued to deleverage, but an increasing number has been re-leveraging compared to 215-216 levels. Some cross-border banking groups have continued to be engaged in various forms of restructuring at the global level to increase their group capital ratios, primarily through sales of assets and partially through sales of branches. Moreover, strategic restructuring expectations are, on average, lower than in 213-216. Deleveraging at the group level has significantly decelerated compared to 213 and 214 (Figure 12) in 217 H1 around 3 percent of the banking groups expect a decrease in group-level LTD ratios. All in all, these outcomes continue to show an improved picture whereby rather balanced, but slightly upbeat, expectations prevail. Cross-border banking groups continue to be selective in their countries of operation in CESEE. At the same time, a large majority of international groups described the ROA of CESEE operations to be higher of that for the overall group. Only a small set of banking groups reports the intention to reduce operations as well as diminishing returns. A large majority of international groups reported higher ROAs (return on assets) in CESEE operations than for the overall group over the past six months. Only one fourth of the banking groups had ROAs in the CESEE region lower than overall group returns. This confirms a positive trend that emerged roughly two years ago. At the same time, a relatively small, and persistent, set of banking groups continue to point to positive but diminishing returns compared to overall group activities. While cross-border banking groups continue to discriminate in terms of countries of operation (Figure 13) as they reassess their country-bycountry strategies, they are also signalling their intentions to expand operations selectively in the region. Slightly less than a third of banking groups have continued to reduce their total exposure to the CESEE region. As a result, the aggregate trend has continued to be negative over the last six months. Looking at the next six months, the net balance is still expected to be slightly negative. In line with the expectations embedded in the 216 H2 release of the survey, most of the decline in exposure to CESEE stemmed from reduced intra-group funding to subsidiaries (as in the previous release of the survey), whereas only a few groups expanded intra-group funding of CESEE subsidiaries. This process has been slightly more pronounced over the past six months than a year ago and it is expected to continue over the next six months, although at a marginally slower pace (Figure 14a). Most

4 parent banks report that they have maintained their capital exposure to their subsidiaries. Only a few banking groups report a decrease in capital exposure, but this is balanced by a few others reporting increases. Over the recent past increasing capital exposures have partially compensated for decreased intra-group funding, although the aggregate net balance has been negative and it continues to be so in the current release of the survey (Figure 14b). CESEE subsidiaries and local banks continue to report an increase in demand for credit, while supply conditions were unchanged over the past six months. This has generated a perceived steadily increasing demand-supply gap. On the other hand, it may also suggest that most of the new credit can be on average of a better quality than in prior credit cycles. Demand for loans and credit lines continued to increase in net balances (Figure 15). Working capital accounted for a good part of the demand stemming from enterprises. Contributions to demand from investment exerted a significant positive impact for the fourth consecutive time. Moreover, and in line with a trend previously detected, debt restructuring contributes less and less to propel demand. Last but not least, this is the first time that a positive contribution from investment scores higher than debt restructuring. This is a further indication of an improving and stabilizing macroeconomic and financial environment, which is more conducive to investment. Contributions to demand from housing-related and non-housing-related consumption also continued to be robust and positive, and consumer confidence continues to exert a positive effect. Supply conditions continued to remain neutral over the past six months, unchanged from the previous release of the survey. Across the client spectrum, supply conditions (credit standards) eased partially in the corporate segment, including SME lending, while tightening on mortgages and consumer credit. Supply conditions slightly eased on both short-term and long-term loans, primarily in local currency. Aggregate supply conditions are expected to ease and the easing seems to be broad-based. The general terms and conditions of loan supply to the corporate segment continued to partially loosen over the past six months. However, collateral requirements tightened further. A cumulated index, built on the demand and supply changes reported in Figure 15, hints at a further widening of the gap between demand and supply positions, where optimism on the demand side continues to be frustrated by the aggregate stagnation of conditions on the supply side. On the other hand, aggregate credit figures for the CESEE entered into positive territory over the past three years. This positive trend should be paired with the evidence derived from the survey of strong demand and unchanged credit standards. As a result, this may suggest that most of the new credit extended should be on average of better quality than in previous credit cycles. The domestic regulatory environment, domestic banks capital constraints, groups NPLs, and the global market outlook are the main factors adversely affecting supply conditions. The number of limiting factors at the domestic level has been decreasing over time compared to 213 (Figure 16). However, the last release shows that

5 the regulatory environment and banks capital constraints remained limiting elements at the domestic level. As in previous surveys, neither access to domestic funding nor the domestic outlook are seen as constraints. Also, fewer international factors are playing a constraining role compared to 216. Mainly the global market outlook and group NPLs are mentioned as having a negative effect on credit supply conditions. Overall, an improvement is detected compared to the previous release of the survey, as the net negative effects are less pronounced. Credit quality continued to improve, and is expected to continue to do so over the next six months, albeit at a slower pace. The speed of deterioration in NPL ratios has been slowing over time. Over the past six months, and for the fifth time, aggregate regional NPL ratios recorded an improvement in net balance terms (Figure 17). In absolute terms, the share of subsidiaries indicating an increase in their NPL ratios over the past six months fell to 9 percent. This figure is substantially lower than 6 percent reported in the September 213 survey release.
