With the governments recently active in rescuing some important players

State intervention

The US Government is directly participating in the rescue of:

CitiGroup

Freddy Mac

Fannie Mae

AIG

The German Government has bought important participations into:

Commerzbank

Hypo Real estate

The English Government has bought important participations into:

Northern Rock (March 2008)

Royal Bank of Scotland

Lloyds

Other governments which intervened nationalizing some banks were: Iceland (four major banks), Ireland (Anglo Irish Bank, third major bank in the country), Latvia,Ukraine, Kazakhstan, etc.

The new international environment is posing additional challenges for CEE countries

MACRO CEE BANKING CEE

Dependency on capital inflows (consumption and investment boom financed through external savings)

Dependency on international demand(industrial sector part of the international production chain)

Dependency on commodities in Russia, Kazakhstan, Ukraine

Imported lack ofconfidence in banks

Banking sector fully dependent on foreign funding to finance lending growth

availability of funding and cost of funding an issue

FX lending both in retail and corporate sector

Real Estate market boom

The international crisis is reflected in

Central Eastern European with

peculiar characteristics

Paradoxically, global capital could flow back to countries where the crisis originated, out from emerging markets and from some transition economies

7

The impact of the financial crisis on CEE has been particularly serious in some countries, milder in others – CEE not an homogenous area

The manufacturing sector in CEE: a stronger industry after the crisis or the end of a successful story?

CEE became in the last decade the manufacturing arm of “Old Europe”. But the financial crisis is affecting significantly CEE countries:

Is the end of the “successful story” in producing in CEE or will the crisis create a further incentive to move production towards more efficient locations in Eastern Europe (creating even a stronger industry in CEE in the long run)?

Some considerations:

Incentives for some industries in Western Europe (for cars and durable goods) could favor Western factories, even if protectionism risks will not materialize;

Labor flexibility is higher in some CEE countries (it’s easier to cut production in CEE rather than in Western Europe)

Pressures on labor cost in CEE will be lower than before (CEE is even more an efficient location)

Competitive pressures intensifies, ie. stronger incentive to look for efficiency

Conclusions

32

The crisis will hit hard all emerging markets, but in CEE structural strengths can cope with cyclical headwinds

STRENGTHS

CEE long term convergence prospects are strong

Strong EU/EMU anchor with a strong bank regulatory environment

International support

Strong commitment of non residents banks

Long-term potential for banking and leasing products

Cyclical Structural

WEAKNESSES Cyclical Structural

Imported lack of confidence

Sharp economic slowdown

Weak corporate activity; lower export, lower FDI

High external financing requirements

Relatively high FX leverage ratios

33

Executive Summary – A crisis is a terrible thing to waste

The financial crisis is re-shaping the banking sectors around the world

The new environment is posing additional challenges on CEE but structural strengths are helpful

CEE countries are feeling the impact of the crisis, as they are dependent on capital inflows and external demandCEE is not an homogenous area – most of the countries are solid

The banking sector in CEE The region’s banking sectors will remain partially dependent on external funding and the competitive framework is changing

Leasing business Weaker economic growth and corporate activity, availability of funding,

concern on credit quality will weight on leasing business; Usual drivers for the leasing market will continue to hold, but they are not

immune from a relevant slowdownThe potential of the leasing business is still there, given the low

penetration: 1) leasing can bridge the gap between demand for investments and insufficient offer of long term financing; 2) in period of deterioration of credit quality, leasing can provide a better protection for the lender; 3) funding is an issue for some players but an advantage for others
