Our 2017 outlook I The Bank is speeding up its business expansion despite the difficult financial context and intense competition. It is relying on the diverse nature of its skills and the alignment of its business model with the specific features of Geneva's economy > The growth of high added-value business and the loyalty of its customer base reaffirm its positive strategic positioning > The Bank's financial soundness makes it a very safe and stable repository for deposits > The Bank expects ongoing low rates and strong market volatility, factors which will affect its interest margin and commission income > Lending growth will remain subdued due to regulations governing capital requirements and the counter-cyclical buffer > The Bank is stepping up the development of business areas that are less capitalintensive (private banking, asset management, investment funds, mergers and acquisitions, and financial engineering consultancy). I For the full year 2017, the Bank expects operating profitability to be higher than last year Page 26
