Second public mission: provide financing for large export credit
Export Bank as agent and originator

Export Client – Foreign country
SFIL takes 95% of the export loan (fully guaranteed part) Export bank will keep an exposure of 5% of the loan (unguaranteed part) Export credit guarantee covering 95% of the overall loan
SFIL’s set up: a refinancing platform open to all commercial banks
- The vast majority of OECD countries rely on a public set up for the refinancing of export loans through two different models:
- Public refinancing platform: SFIL (France), SEK (Sweden), FEC (Finland), KFW (Germany), CDP (Italy)
- Direct public lender: US EXIM (US), JBIC (Japan), KEXIM (Korea), EDC (Canada)
Exposures linked to the export credit activity constitute 100% French government exposures

SFIL reached high quality ratings on the basis of:
- High strategic importance for the French State as a key source of funding for the local public
sector and French exports
- Status as a State owned development bank, French State as reference shareholder with specific
responsibilities in terms of financial support without time limitation
- Close supervision by the French State as majority shareholder – all important decisions require

Refinancing of the export credit activity via CAFFIL
No transfer of the export loan – refinancing loan with unconditional and irrevocable State guarantee
- A refinancing loan from CAFFIL to SFIL - matching the export loan characteristics - serves to refinance the
export loan acquired by SFIL, the export loan will not be part of the cover pool
- New cover pool exposure consists of refinancing loans to SFIL benefiting from an irrevocable and
unconditional 100% guarantee by the French Republic (enhanced guarantee mechanism law n°2012-1510)
- Refinancing loans represent public sector exposures fully CRR compliant (Art. 129)
- One single cover pool for local public sector loans and refinancing loans with an irrevocable and unconditional
100% guarantee by the French Republic * French export credit guarantee scheme is currently managed by Coface and will taken over by BPI France in the course of 2016
Issuance of covered bonds Refinancing loan Irrevocable and unconditional guarantee by the French Republic

- Low concentration risk:
- Sum of 20 largest exposures = 13.4% of cover pool
- Largest single borrower exposure represents 1% of cover pool
- 20th largest exposure represents 0.4% of cover pool

Strong asset quality reflected in portfolio risk weightings and comprehensive assessment results
Composition of the cover pool by risk weighting– June 30th 2016 Low risk weightings under advanced internal model
- CAFFIL uses a Basel II advanced internal
rating model approved by the regulator and based on over 10 years of default statistics, financial and fiscal data and 30 explanatory ratios and risk indicators
- The quality of CAFFIL’s cover pool is
reflected by an average risk weighting of
- nly 6.4% versus a standard 20% weighting
under Basel II
- Only 4% of the portfolio carry a weighting
above 20% Comprehensive assessment of asset quality and stress scenarios in October 2014
- Solid CET1 ratio at 13.2% under the
adverse scenario – SFIL ranked 20th out of 130 banks

Key Take-Aways
- Two public policy missions:
- financing tool for the French local public sector
- Refinancing platform for export credit loans reinforces strategic role for the French State
- Strong credit ratings reflect strong support from the French State as reference shareholder
- Strong asset quality - French public sector assets to represent 90% of portfolio by 2021
- Status as public development bank reflected by LCR classification as HQLA Level 1 asset
“We regard Société de Financement Local (SFIL) as a government-related entity, and we believe there is an almost certain likelihood that the French government would provide SFIL with extraordinary support if needed.”
