OPERATING EXPENSES

COMMENTS

• Operating expenses grew by 2.61% to N11.39
• billion. This was due to the impact of higher energy

prices and inflation.

• Cost-to-income

declined by 0.74% to 89.77% (H1’2016) compared to 90.44% (H1’2015), as the Bank remained focused on cost management. The deliberate and strategic expansion migration of customers to e-platforms are expected to minimize cost further.

increased cost of funding.

COMMENTS

As at H1’2016, the Bank recorded the following;

• CAR was above the regulatory limit of

10% despite the introduction

• f

regulatory changes.

• Liquidity ratio was above the regulatory

limit of 30%. We note that the Bank’s CAR which was reported as 15.10% (2015FY) declined due to regulatory changes by the CBN and came into effect in 2016. However, we remain confident that despite the current macro economic environment, the Bank remains well positioned weather negative shocks.

17 Risk Management remains at the core of our business model

Impact of decline in Government Revenue on Credit Risk Continuing Challenges in the Oil and Gas Sector Technology related risks and

• perational threats

Exchange Risk and Trade Finance

• pportunities
• Expected decline in industry loan quality amidst global low commodity

prices and with government as the major business driver. However, the Bank is poised to maintain high asset quality through improved efficiency in loan collections and monitoring, as well as lending to highly structured and stable companies with good track record.

• The bank has reined in lending to this challenged sector and existing

loans are given more attention and monitoring to arrest deterioration

• Appropriate controls and regular vulnerability/penetration tests being

conducted on our electronic and alternative payment platforms to protect depositors and the bank against cyber-attacks and consequent operational losses

• Illiquidity and volatility in the foreign exchange market continue to

pose significant threats to trade businesses and other income lines

• Continuous review of our credit risk appetite and tightening of risk

tolerance limits on sectors/borrowers with negative outlooks

• In response to rising inflationary trends, we will continue to insulate
• ur interest margins against any rate shocks via strategic gapping of

rate sensitive assets and liabilities
