                               The EC approves the restructuring plans
                               of the four nationalised Spanish banks
                               The EC has just approved the recapitalisation plans for the four nationalised banks, BFA-Bankia,
                               NCG, Catalunya Banc and Banco de Valencia (BdV). The disbursement of capital by the ESM to
                               the FROB will take place in the first half of December. Subsequently, the FROB will inject the
                               capital into the banks once the necessary corporate operations have been completed.
                               It is important to highlight that although OW identified a capital shortfall of EUR47bn in these four
                               entities, the capital needs of the entities will be reduced by the transfer of real estate assets to the
                               SAREB, the assumption of losses by the subordinated bondholders and restructuring measures
                               (asset disposals). This will reduce the capital needs of the four entities by EUR10bn to EUR37bn, of
                               which EUR18bn for BFA-Bankia, EUR5.4bn for NCG, EUR9bn for Catalunya Banc and EUR4.5bn for
                               BdV.
                               According to the restructuring plans, by 2017 the balance sheet of each bank will be reduced by
                               more than 60% compared to 2010. In particular, the banks will refocus their business models on
                               retail and SME lending in their historical core regions.
                               Finally it is important to note that if NCG Banco and Catalunya Banc are not sold before 2017, the
                               entities will be liquidated (orderly resolution plan). This does not apply to BFA-Bankia as it is a
                               systemic institution. Also, during the call Mr Almunia clearly stated that the liquidation of BdV
                               would have been more expensive than selling it to CaixaBank despite the support provided for
                               the transaction.
                               The EC will disclose the capital requirements for the Group 2 banks, (CEISS, BMN, Caja3 and
                               Liberbank) on 20 December.

                               Bankia unveiled its new strategic plan following the EC
                               announcement
                               Following the announcement of the European Commission’s approval of the restructuring plans
                               of the four nationalised banks, Bankia updated its 2012-2015 strategic plan. The key elements of
                               this plan are set out below:
                               •    A EUR17,959mn injection of state aid (including the EUR4,500mn already injected).
                               •    The group aims to be profitable starting 2013 and to report a net profit of EUR1.2bn in 2015.
                               •    The bank is targeting new lending for c. EUR52bn up to 2015, of which 84% to corporates.
                               •    Divestment of non-core businesses and non-core strategic assets.
                               •    The number of branches should be downsized by 39% (from 3,117 to c. 1,900-2,000) and
                                    headcount by 28% (from 20,589 to 14,500).
                               •    Operating expenses should decline by 26% to EUR1.8bn. The group’s cost-to-income ratio
                                    should therefore stand at c. 40-45% by 2015.
                               •    Average total assets should decline by 20%, pre-provision income should stand at
                                    c.EUR4,100mn.
                               •    RoE of 10%.
                               •    Excess capital above the 9% core Tier 1 target (EBA) of EUR4.5bn. The group’s risk-weighted
                                    assets should contract from EUR166bn to EUR112bn.

                               Mostly developer lending to be transferred to SAREB
                               As at June 2012, the group had EUR57.2bn of commercial real-estate risk (EUR15.9bn real-estate
                               assets and EUR41.3bn developer loans). After applying the discount to the transfer price to SAREB
                               (around 49%), this exposure will have a net value of EUR29.3bn, of which EUR24.6bn will comply
                               with the eligibility criteria to be transferred to the SAREB. The remaining exposure of EUR4.7bn on
                               Bankia’s books is therefore negligible.

                               Update on the liquidity profile
                               The BFA-Bankia group has disclosed that it has EUR45.3bn of debt maturities, of which EUR32.8bn
                               by 2017. According to the entity, liquid assets stood at EUR12.2bn in October 2012, but taking into
                               account the capital increase (EUR13.5bn as EUR4.5bn has been already injected) and the
                               EUR24.6bn government-guaranteed debt issued by SAREB in exchange for assets transferred,
                               liquid assets will increase to EUR40.3bn. This figure also takes into consideration the EUR10bn
                               reduction in liquid assets due to the fact that Bankia’s eligible OC would be below 25% as a
                               consequence of transfer of assets to SAREB. Therefore the issuer will be requested to amortize
                               retained covered bonds.
                               Liquid assets will thus cover 89% of the debt maturities or 120% of debt maturities up to 2017.
                               The entity has a LTD ratio of 164% in June 2012, which should decrease to 143% at the end of
                               2012e after transferring the real estate assets to SAREB. The group has a target LTD ratio of 120%
                               in 2015.

                                        As regards the group’s reliance on the ECB and its exit strategy, the entity has stated that this
                                        money is currently funding its bond portfolio and the exposure will decline as government
                                        securities mature.

                                        Oliver Wyman initially estimated a capital shortfall for BFA-Bankia group of EUR24.7bn. The
                                        injection of public aid to be made in December 2012 stands at EUR18bn. As can be seen in Figure
                                        3 below, this is the result of the EUR200mn capital relief derived from the transfer of assets to the
                                        bad bank and the benefit of EUR6.5bn which will come from the liability management transaction.
                                        The EUR4.5bn already injected in September 2012 (after the severe losses that the group
                                        experienced in 1H12 following which the group had to be recapitalised as its capital fell below the
                                        minimum regulatory level) also has to be deducted from the original EUR24.7bn.
                                        During the call the management stated the BFA will be recapitalised in the form of ESM bonds
                                        and before the end of the year. However nothing was said about the type of instrument that will
                                        be utilised to recapitalise Bankia, or the timing.

                                        Losses imposed on subordinated bondholders are
                                        less than expected
                                        Subordinated bondholders will receive a generous exit offer, Tier 1 debt will be swapped into
                                        Bankia shares at 61% of par value, and Upper Tier 2 at 54%. LT2 bonds can be either swapped into
                                        shares at a 14% discount or into senior BFA zero coupon bonds with a discount of 1.5% per month
                                        until the maturity date of the LT2 security. In our view, given the discount rate, the second option
                                        would be applied only to low duration BFA bonds.
                                        The process for assessing the haircut to applied to each security is as follows: the economic value
                                        will be determined by discounting a bond’s cash flow by using a discount rate of 20% for Tier 1
                                        securities, (15% UT2 and 10% LT2). 10 points have then been added to the economic value, being
                                        the maximum premium allowed by the Memorandum of Understanding and a further 20 points
                                        as equity will be given instead of cash.

                               This method of calculating the terms of the exchange explains why subordination rights appear
                               not to have been respected given that the haircut applied to UT2 is higher than applied to the
                               preference shares. We are in touch with the issuer on this and will pass on any further information
                               provided.
                               We have to acknowledge that haircuts applied to hybrids and subordinated debt are less than
                               either our estimates or those implied by market levels. Management has said that the timing of
                               the exchange has not been decided yet. In particular, at this stage it is still uncertain if it will be
                               implemented before or after the recapitalisation.
                               However, during the conference call, Bankia’s management stated that the dilution risk deriving
                               from the issue of new shares has already been taken into consideration when the terms of the
                               exchange were set.
                               From our conversation with management, we understood that the liability management will be
                               initially implemented on a voluntary basis. However we recall that according to the
                               Memorandum of Understanding “steps will be taken to minimise the cost to taxpayers of bank
                               restructuring. After allocating losses to equity holders, the Spanish authorities will require burden
                               sharing measures from hybrid capital holders and subordinated debt holders in banks receiving
                               public capital, including by implementing both voluntary and, where necessary, mandatory
                               Subordinated Liability Exercises (SLEs). Banks not in need of State aid will be outside the scope of
                               any mandatory burden sharing exercise. The Banco de España, in liaison with the European
                               Commission and the EBA, will monitor any operations converting hybrid and subordinated
                               instruments into senior debt or equity”.
                               The risk here is therefore that a subsequent mandatory liability management exercise could
                               follow the initial voluntary one. That said, we expect the participation rate in the voluntary
                               exercise to be substantial. The distinction here between voluntary or mandatory exchange offer is
                               important as the second is a restricting credit event and therefore triggers CDS contracts.

Ratings System, Distribution and History
Meaning of Ratings
We have three ratings for bonds based on our current expectations of relative returns over a six month period: i.) Buy – we expect the bond to outperform its
peer group, sector or relevant benchmark; ii.) Hold - we expect the bond to perform in-line with its peer group, sector or relevant benchmark; and iii.) Sell - we
expect the bond to underperform its peer group, sector or relevant benchmark. Factors which may influence our ratings include: current market prices and
conditions, operating issues and financing needs which may impact an issuer’s ability to service its debts, macroeconomic trends and outlook for interest
rates, specific features of an issue, and the potential for a change in rating by credit rating agencies.

  • 2. Credit Views London, 29 November 2012 The EC approves the restructuring plans of the four nationalised Spanish banks The EC has just approved the recapitalisation plans for the four nationalised banks, BFA-Bankia, NCG, Catalunya Banc and Banco de Valencia (BdV). The disbursement of capital by the ESM to the FROB will take place in the first half of December. Subsequently, the FROB will inject the capital into the banks once the necessary corporate operations have been completed. It is important to highlight that although OW identified a capital shortfall of EUR47bn in these four entities, the capital needs of the entities will be reduced by the transfer of real estate assets to the SAREB, the assumption of losses by the subordinated bondholders and restructuring measures (asset disposals). This will reduce the capital needs of the four entities by EUR10bn to EUR37bn, of which EUR18bn for BFA-Bankia, EUR5.4bn for NCG, EUR9bn for Catalunya Banc and EUR4.5bn for BdV. According to the restructuring plans, by 2017 the balance sheet of each bank will be reduced by more than 60% compared to 2010. In particular, the banks will refocus their business models on retail and SME lending in their historical core regions. Finally it is important to note that if NCG Banco and Catalunya Banc are not sold before 2017, the entities will be liquidated (orderly resolution plan). This does not apply to BFA-Bankia as it is a systemic institution. Also, during the call Mr Almunia clearly stated that the liquidation of BdV would have been more expensive than selling it to CaixaBank despite the support provided for the transaction. The EC will disclose the capital requirements for the Group 2 banks, (CEISS, BMN, Caja3 and Liberbank) on 20 December. Bankia unveiled its new strategic plan following the EC announcement Following the announcement of the European Commission’s approval of the restructuring plans of the four nationalised banks, Bankia updated its 2012-2015 strategic plan. The key elements of this plan are set out below: • A EUR17,959mn injection of state aid (including the EUR4,500mn already injected). • The group aims to be profitable starting 2013 and to report a net profit of EUR1.2bn in 2015. • The bank is targeting new lending for c. EUR52bn up to 2015, of which 84% to corporates. • Divestment of non-core businesses and non-core strategic assets. • The number of branches should be downsized by 39% (from 3,117 to c. 1,900-2,000) and headcount by 28% (from 20,589 to 14,500). • Operating expenses should decline by 26% to EUR1.8bn. The group’s cost-to-income ratio should therefore stand at c. 40-45% by 2015. • Average total assets should decline by 20%, pre-provision income should stand at c.EUR4,100mn. • RoE of 10%. • Excess capital above the 9% core Tier 1 target (EBA) of EUR4.5bn. The group’s risk-weighted assets should contract from EUR166bn to EUR112bn. PLEASE SEE IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES ON THE LAST THREE PAGES OF THIS REPORT Page 2
  • 3. Credit Views London, 29 November 2012 Mostly developer lending to be transferred to SAREB As at June 2012, the group had EUR57.2bn of commercial real-estate risk (EUR15.9bn real-estate assets and EUR41.3bn developer loans). After applying the discount to the transfer price to SAREB (around 49%), this exposure will have a net value of EUR29.3bn, of which EUR24.6bn will comply with the eligibility criteria to be transferred to the SAREB. The remaining exposure of EUR4.7bn on Bankia’s books is therefore negligible.

Corporates should represent 33% and real - retail- real- developers estate developers will just represent just 2%. Update on the liquidity profile The BFA-Bankia group has disclosed that it has EUR45.3bn of debt maturities, of which EUR32.8bn by 2017. According to the entity, liquid assets stood at EUR12.2bn in October 2012, but taking into account the capital increase (EUR13.5bn as EUR4.5bn has been already injected) and the EUR24.6bn government-guaranteed debt issued by SAREB in exchange for assets transferred, liquid assets will increase to EUR40.3bn. This figure also takes into consideration the EUR10bn reduction in liquid assets due to the fact that Bankia’s eligible OC would be below 25% as a consequence of transfer of assets to SAREB. Therefore the issuer will be requested to amortize retained covered bonds. Liquid assets will thus cover 89% of the debt maturities or 120% of debt maturities up to 2017. The entity has a LTD ratio of 164% in June 2012, which should decrease to 143% at the end of 2012e after transferring the real estate assets to SAREB. The group has a target LTD ratio of 120% in 2015. PLEASE SEE IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES ON THE LAST THREE PAGES OF THIS REPORT Page 3
  • 4. Credit Views London, 29 November 2012 As regards the group’s reliance on the ECB and its exit strategy, the entity has stated that this money is currently funding its bond portfolio and the exposure will decline as government securities mature.

The injection of public aid to be made in December 2012 stands at EUR18bn. As can be seen in Figure 3 below, this is the result of the EUR200mn capital relief derived from the transfer of assets to the bad bank and the benefit of EUR6.5bn which will come from the liability management transaction. The EUR4.5bn already injected in September 2012 (after the severe losses that the group experienced in 1H12 following which the group had to be recapitalised as its capital fell below the minimum regulatory level) also has to be deducted from the original EUR24.7bn. During the call the management stated the BFA will be recapitalised in the form of ESM bonds and before the end of the year. However nothing was said about the type of instrument that will be utilised to recapitalise Bankia, or the timing.

LT2 bonds can be either swapped into shares at a 14% discount or into senior BFA zero coupon bonds with a discount of 1.5% per month until the maturity date of the LT2 security. In our view, given the discount rate, the second option would be applied only to low duration BFA bonds. The process for assessing the haircut to applied to each security is as follows: the economic value will be determined by discounting a bond’s cash flow by using a discount rate of 20% for Tier 1 securities, (15% UT2 and 10% LT2). 10 points have then been added to the economic value, being the maximum premium allowed by the Memorandum of Understanding and a further 20 points as equity will be given instead of cash.

  • 5. Credit Views London, 29 November 2012 This method of calculating the terms of the exchange explains why subordination rights appear not to have been respected given that the haircut applied to UT2 is higher than applied to the preference shares. We are in touch with the issuer on this and will pass on any further information provided. We have to acknowledge that haircuts applied to hybrids and subordinated debt are less than either our estimates or those implied by market levels. Management has said that the timing of the exchange has not been decided yet. In particular, at this stage it is still uncertain if it will be implemented before or after the recapitalisation. However, during the conference call, Bankia’s management stated that the dilution risk deriving from the issue of new shares has already been taken into consideration when the terms of the exchange were set. From our conversation with management, we understood that the liability management will be initially implemented on a voluntary basis. However we recall that according to the Memorandum of Understanding “steps will be taken to minimise the cost to taxpayers of bank restructuring. After allocating losses to equity holders, the Spanish authorities will require burden sharing measures from hybrid capital holders and subordinated debt holders in banks receiving public capital, including by implementing both voluntary and, where necessary, mandatory Subordinated Liability Exercises (SLEs). Banks not in need of State aid will be outside the scope of any mandatory burden sharing exercise. The Banco de España, in liaison with the European Commission and the EBA, will monitor any operations converting hybrid and subordinated instruments into senior debt or equity”. The risk here is therefore that a subsequent mandatory liability management exercise could follow the initial voluntary one. That said, we expect the participation rate in the voluntary exercise to be substantial. The distinction here between voluntary or mandatory exchange offer is important as the second is a restricting credit event and therefore triggers CDS contracts.
