· Q2 Group PPI reaches €421m (+18% qoq) despite continued adverse FX movement in Turkey; Pre Provision Margin at 269bps
· Group NII resilient at €750m (-3.7% qoq), despite increased ELA reliance in the domestic business and further depreciation of TL in Q2. Turkish NII up by an impressive 8.3% qoq in TL terms (2.2% in Euro terms)
· Group total income in Q2 reached €972m up 10.3% qoq supported by trading gains
· Group operating expenses at €552m (+5.2% qoq), yield a C:I of 57%. In Greece, operating expenses stood at €256m (+1.7% qoq) with personnel expenses down by 0.7% qoq
· Group 90dpd formation drops sharply to €133m in Q2 vs €476m in Q1; In Greece, formation stood at €41m vs €336m in Q1 reflecting accelerated restructuring flows
· Group 90dpd ratio settled at 24.6% in Q2 from 24.3% in Q1. In the domestic business, 90dpd remained almost unchanged qoq at 32.1% from 32.0%, as a result of subdued delinquency flows in the retail segment (€142m vs €377m in Q1.15)
· Despite deposit outflows continuing in Q2, NBG retains the lower L:D ratio in the Greek sector
· Group deposits decreased by 7.8% q-o-q to €55.7bn on sustained deposit outflows in Greece, due to uncertainty throughout Q2 peaking in June. Still, domestic outflows slowed to €3.6bn from €4.8bn in Q1. Following the imposition of capital controls and the gradual and ongoing restoration of confidence, deposit flows returned to positive territory in Q3
· Eurosystem funding increased to €27.6bn at the end of June (ELA: €17.6bn) from €23.6bn in March, the lowest among Greek banks. At the end of Q3, Eurosystem funding dropped to €25.6bn (ELA: €15.6bn), with the cash value of excess collateral at €8.0bn
