Second quarter 2020 results
ING posts 2Q2020 net result of €299 mln
Steven van Rijswijk, CEO of ING
6 August 2020
Key points
- In line with our purpose, we continue to take actions to support our customers, employees and society in coping with the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic. At the same time, countering financial and economic crime remains a priority
- The current environment underscores the strength of our digital business model, with continued primary customer growth, ensuring stable NII and operational cost control
- In 2Q2020 mortgage lending continued to grow, while in Wholesale Banking protective drawings of 1Q2020 partially reversed. Overall net core lending growth was €-7.0 bln. Customer deposits increased by €20.9 bln
- Pre-provisionresult was resilient, supported by disciplined pricing, positive valuation adjustments and cost control, despite margin pressure on customer deposits and impairments on goodwill
- Risk costs increased, mainly driven by €421 mln of collective provisioning reflecting the worsened macro-economic indicators due to the Covid-19 pandemic, while Stage 3 risk costs included a sizable suspected external fraud case
- Looking forward, we expect that for 2020 the majority of provisioning is behind us and for the second half of 2020 we expect risk costs to be below the level recorded in the first half year, under the assumption that the macro-economic indicators will remain unchanged
- 2Q2020 CET1 ratio was strong at 15.0%, with lower RWA reflecting successful capital management actions, capital relief measures and lower lending volume. Including the 2019 dividend reserve the pro-forma CET1 ratio was 15.5%
- We are very well positioned to face the challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic with a robust capital position, a strong funding structure and a continued low Stage 3 ratio

- Investment products benefitted from a shift of savings to investments and a higher number of trades driven by market volatility
- In Lending, we took a conservative approach towards the syndicated loan market and saw less TCF activity in WB
- Daily Banking was affected by fewer transactions and travel, partly offset by increased payment package fees

Volatile items
Pre-provision result excl. volatile items and regulatory costs
- Income was €6 mln higher compared to 2Q2019 supported by increased Treasury-related income, positive fair value adjustments and discipline in lending margins. This increase in income was largely offset by lower interest results on customer deposits and lower results from FX ratio hedging, while 2Q2019 included a €79 mln one-off receivable related to the insolvency of a financial institution
- Sequentially, income was €160 mln higher as positive fair value adjustments were only partially offset by lower interest results and fees, which were exceptionally high in the previous quarter
- 2Q2020 pre-provision result, excluding volatile items and regulatory costs, was €55 mln lower YoY, reflecting lower income (after excluding volatile items) and slightly lower expenses
- QoQ pre-provision result excluding volatile items and regulatory costs was €186 mln lower, reflecting lower income (after excluding volatile items), while costs were higher as the previous quarter included a significantly higher VAT refund

- Net interest income, excluding Financial Markets, was 1.5% lower compared to 2Q2019. Higher interest results related to Treasury and customer lending were more than offset by continued pressure on customer deposit margins, while customer deposits continue to increase, as well as lower income from FX ratio hedging in the Corporate Line
- Sequentially, NII excluding Financial Markets decreased 1.8%, driven by the abovementioned reasons
- NIM was 144 bps, down seven basis points from 1Q2020, despite a higher margin on mortgage lending. The decrease was mainly attributable to an increase in the average balance sheet, driven by a high inflow of customer deposits and €55 bln TLTRO III uptake at the end of June. Furthermore, (volatile) interest results in Financial Markets were lower and we saw margin pressure on customer deposits and, to a lesser extent, on non-mortgage lending

Wholesale Banking | Intra-year FM adjustment* | ||||
- Fees increased by €12 mln compared to 2Q2019. This was due to Retail Banking, as higher fees on investment products were only partially offset by lower Daily Banking fees, reflecting a reduced number of payment transactions and less travel due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Fee income in Wholesale Banking was down, reflecting lower syndicated deal activity in Lending and lower fee income in TCF, mainly due to lower average oil prices
- Sequentially, fee income was €60 mln lower. In Retail Banking, fees decreased after a high level in the first quarter. This was mainly driven by the abovementioned lower Daily Banking fees as well as lower, although still relatively high, fees on investments products. In Wholesale Banking fees were lower, mainly due to abovementioned reasons
* In 3Q2019, an increase in fees of €14 mln in Wholesale Banking was caused by the reclassification of commissions paid in 2Q2019 to Other Income | 12 |

- Excluding valuation adjustments, FM income was €64 mln higher YoY, mainly due to a strong quarter in Rates and Global Capital Markets
- QoQ income was €73 mln higher, mainly reflecting higher income in Rates and Credit Trading, following losses due to abrupt downward market movements in the previous quarter
- Net valuation adjustments in FM were €87 mln. This was driven by markets normalising after the market volatility at the end of the previous quarter, resulting in a reversal of the negative valuation adjustments in 1Q2020

- Expenses excl. KYC related costs, regulatory costs and goodwill impairments, were €44 mln lower YoY, as cost savings and lower performance-related expenses offset CLA-related salary increases, while the year-ago quarter included a €36 mln restructuring provision
- QoQ, expenses excl. KYC related costs, regulatory costs and goodwill impairments, were €43 mln higher as cost savings and lower performance-related expenses were more than offset by a significantly lower VAT refund
- Regulatory costs were €40 mln higher YoY, mainly due to a catch-up on Single Resolution Fund contributions. QoQ regulatory costs were €389 mln lower, reflecting seasonality in regulatory costs
* Formal build-up phase of Deposit Guarantee Schemes (DGS) and Single Resolution Fund (SRF) should be completed by 2024 | 14 |

-
2Q2020 risk costs were €1,336 mln, or 85 bps of average customer lending, above the through-the-cycle average of approx. 25 bps.
Risk costs were impacted by €421 mln collective Stage 1 and 2 provisions, due to worsened macro-economic indicators and prudent provisioning for payment holidays, allocated to the segments with RB Benelux €110 mln, Retail C&GM €59 mln and WB €252 mln - In Retail Benelux risk costs were further driven by some larger individual files in mid-corporates. In Retail C&GM collective provisions increased, mainly in Poland, Spain and Turkey. Risk costs in WB reflected several larger individual additions on both existing and new files, mainly in Germany, the Americas, Asia and the Netherlands, including a sizable provision for a suspected external fraud case
- The Stage 2 ratio increased to 7.0%, mainly driven by higher Watch list exposures and rating downgrades in WB. The Stage 3 ratio remained unchanged at 1.6%, or 1.8% excluding TLTRO III. The Stage 3 ratio in WB slightly increased to 1.4%
- See Appendix section of the presentation for further details on the asset quality of selected portfolios

- The 2Q2020 CET1 ratio came in at 15.0%, reflecting both higher CET1 capital and a significant reduction in RWA (see next slide)
- CET1 capital was €1.4 bln higher reflecting the addition of net profit (€0.3 bln), the adoption of the extended IFRS 9 transitional agreement (€0.2 bln), a reduced effect from the shortfall loan loss provision (€0.4 bln) and a lower deduction of goodwill (€0.3 bln). In addition, we saw a €0.1 bln reversal of last quarter's decrease in revaluation reserves
- In line with the recommendations made by the ECB to European banks on 28 July 2020, any dividend payments will be delayed until after 1 January 2021. 2Q2020 Group net profit was fully added to regulatory capital
- The €1,754 mln reserved for the 2019 final dividend was not added back to CET1 capital and remains reserved for dividend
- With an AT1 ratio of 1.9% and a Tier 2 ratio of 2.7%, we benefit fully from the CET1 relief provided by article 104(a) CRDV

actions |
- In 2Q2020, RWA decreased €13.1 bln to €322.2 bln, mainly due to a decrease in credit RWA which were down by €12.3 bln as a result of capital management actions, passing of CRR2.5 in EU law and lower volumes, partly offset by the inclusion of expected supervisory impact on RWA
- Capital management actions consisted mainly of the adoption of the standardised approach for sovereign exposures and an adjustment to align the calculation of the regulatory maturity with contractual cash flows for certain lending products
- CRR2.5 amendments included the adoption of SME and Infra support factors and preferential RWA treatment of income-backed loans
- €6.6 bln of RWA inflation reflected an update at the end of July that ECB does not see further postponements of the deadlines for actions imposed in ECB decisions, including TRIM investigations
- With the impact of DoD fully absorbed and TRIM impact already largely included, we are confident that at the current strong level of capital, we can comfortably absorb the remaining expected RWA impact of regulatory changes

- Implies management buffer (incl. Pillar 2 Guidance) of ~450 bps over prevailing fully-loaded CET1 requirements (10.51% fully loaded, after reduction of several buffers in a response to the Covid-19 pandemic and the pulling forward of the implementation of article 104a of CRDV)
- Based on 4-quarter rolling average. ING Group ROE is calculated using IFRS-EU shareholders' equity after excluding 'interim profit not included in CET1 capital'. As at 30 June 2020, interim profit not included in CET1 capital amounts to €1,754 mln, reflecting an initial reservation for the 2019 final dividend payment.

Wrap up
- In line with our purpose, we continue to take actions to support our customers, employees and society in coping with the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic. At the same time, countering financial and economic crime remains a priority
- The current environment underscores the strength of our digital business model, with continued primary customer growth, ensuring stable NII and operational cost control
- In 2Q2020 mortgage lending continued to grow, while in Wholesale Banking protective drawings of 1Q2020 partially reversed. Overall net core lending growth was €-7.0 bln. Customer deposits increased by €20.9 bln
- Pre-provisionresult was resilient, supported by disciplined pricing, positive valuation adjustments and cost control, despite margin pressure on customer deposits and impairments on goodwill
- Risk costs increased, mainly driven by €421 mln of collective provisioning reflecting the worsened macro-economic indicators due to the Covid-19 pandemic, while Stage 3 risk costs included a sizable suspected external fraud case
- Looking forward, we expect that for 2020 the majority of provisioning is behind us and for the second half of 2020 we expect risk costs to be below the level recorded in the first half year, under the assumption that the macro-economic indicators will remain unchanged
- 2Q2020 CET1 ratio was strong at 15.0%, with lower RWA reflecting successful capital management actions, capital relief measures and lower lending volume. Including the 2019 dividend reserve the pro-forma CET1 ratio was 15.5%
- We are very well positioned to face the challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic with a robust capital position, a strong funding structure and a continued low Stage 3 ratio
