Nevertheless, further pro- gress was made in implementing the Board of Administration-approved corporate strategy, and customer-driven business was buoyant. In its home market, BayernLB carved out a clear position for itself and further strengthened and expanded its role as a lender to companies in Bavaria and the rest of Germany. Systematically implementing the new business model by focusing on serving customers formed the highest strategic priority for the Board of Management and Board of Administration. The Board of Administration regularly monitored the Board of Management and advised it on the management of the business throughout the course of the year. The Board of Management provided the Board of Administration and the Audit and Risk Committees formed from among its members with regular, up-to-date and comprehensive verbal and written reports on the Bank’s business policy and general issues related to corporate planning, particularly financial, invest- ment and human resource planning. The Board of Management also provided the Board of Administration with regular, comprehensive and up-to-date information on the Bank’s perfor- mance, focusing especially on earnings, expenses, risks, liquidity and capital status, legal and business relations with affiliated companies, and material events and business transactions, particularly in the case of affiliated companies. The Board of Management also kept the Board of Administration abreast of the ongoing state-aid proceedings and attendant negotiations with the EU Commission. The two boards held in-depth discussions with each other on the potential impact of the proceedings on the Bank’s business policy. The Board of Administration also looked at the plethora of changes to the legal and regulatory framework and their potential impact on BayernLB and its subsidiaries. Items on the agenda included bank levies in Germany and Hungary, the restructuring law, and the European Banking Authority’s stress test. In the second half of the year, the Board of Administration devoted much of its attention to the macro-economic situation in Hungary and the actions taken by the govern- ment there. The negative impact of extraordinary items resulting from the Foreign Currency Loan Repayment Law and the Hungarian government’s bank levy – a tax which is not assessed on the basis of earnings – made a capital increase necessary for MKB Bank Zrt. by 31 March 2012. In an extraordinary meeting in December 2011, the Board of Administration gave its approval for the Board of Management to provide the necessary funds to cover MKB’s capital requirements as soon as the EU Commission agrees. Over the course of the year ten meetings were chaired by Mr Fahrenschon, who stepped down on 3 November 2011, and three by his successor Dr Söder. The chairmen of both the Audit Committee and Risk Committee regularly reported on the com- mittees’ work to a full session of the Board of Administration. BayernLB . 2011 Annual Report and Accounts ›› Report by the Board of Administration 7 Under its chairman Dr Klaus von Lindeiner-Wildau, the principal duties of the Audit Committee are to monitor the accounting process and the effectiveness of the internal control system, the internal auditing system, the system used for risk management and the audit of the annual finan- cial statements and of the consolidated financial statements, and to review and monitor the inde- pendence of the auditors, particularly the additional services performed by the auditors for the Bank. The Board of Administration assigned additional duties to the Audit Committee. During the year, for example, the Audit Committee received updates on the work of Internal Audit and Com- pliance. It also considered assessments on the threats from money laundering and financial crime and what the focuses of the audit of the 2011 Annual Report should be as permitted by Section 30 of the German Banking Act. The Audit Committee played a full role in the process to select the new auditors for the 2012 annual financial statements relating to the Bank, Group, BayernLabo and LBS Bayern. The Audit Committee and Board of Administration both recommended appointing Deloitte & Touche GmbH Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft to be the auditors for 2012, and this was confirmed in a resolution by the General Meeting. The Audit Committee held four meetings in 2011. Under its chairman Alexander Mettenheimer, the Risk Committee has been involved in all major issues relating to the risk strategy established by the Board of Management and to BayernLB’s risk situation at both the Group and Bank level. It discussed and approved the risk and sub-portfolio strategies defined by the Board of Management Group-wide, discussed the reports by the Board of Management on BayernLB’s performance in relation to the risk situation (particularly risk- bearing capacity), and decided on all loans requiring approval by the Board of Administration. In 2011 the Risk Committee considered the progress of the Restructuring Unit (particularly the ABS portfolio), the analysis of the impact of Basel III and the implementation status of the third amendment to the MaRisk regulations at BayernLB. Other areas it looked at in detail included the European sovereign debt crisis and its impact on the banking sector in general and on the Bank in particular. The Risk Committee held six meetings in 2011. The chairman of the Board of Management promptly informed the chairman and deputy chairmen of the Board of Administration about any events that were of material significance in assessing the Bank’s situation and performance. The regulatory requirements governing the reporting by the Board of Management of irregularities identified by Internal Audit were met. At their various meetings the Board of Administration, Audit Committee and Risk Committee passed the resolutions required by law and under the Statutes and the Rules of Procedure of the respective committees. In addition, important issues and pending decisions were also discussed in regular meetings between the chairmen of the Board of Administration and Board of Manage- ment. Meetings were held both in person and in the form of telephone conferences. When necessary, resolutions were also passed between meetings using a circulation procedure. BayernLB . 2011 Annual Report and Accounts ›› 8 Corporate governance The BayernLB Corporate Governance Principles set out the regulations on corporate management and supervision that apply to BayernLB on the basis of binding and in-house regulations. In its meeting of 23 January 2012, the Board of Administration discussed compliance with these corporate governance principles in 2011. It agreed with the Board of Management that it was aware of no evidence that these principles had not been observed. The General Meeting passed a resolution to the same effect. In moving from the old Landesbank model to become a customer-focused commercial bank, BayernLB has opted to make changes so that its corporate governance is more commercially orientated. Board members Various changes occurred in the composition of the Board of Administration in 2011. Mr Georg Fahrenschon ceased to be a member of the Board of Administration on 3 November when he stepped down as the Bavarian Finance Minister. He was succeeded as chairman by Dr Markus Söder, the new Bavarian Finance Minister. Mr Diethard Irrgang ceased to be a member of the Board of Administration on 15 August 2011 after a new employee representative was chosen in the Staff Council elections.

  • Fitch Places German and Austrian Banks Under Criteria Observation
    3/4/2020 Press Release Fitch Places German and Austrian Banks Under Criteria Observation Fitch Ratings - Frankfurt am Main - 04 March 2020: Fitch Ratings has placed Austrian and German banks' Long-Term (LT) Issuer Default Ratings (IDRs), Derivative Counterparty Ratings (DCR), debt ratings and Deposit Ratings under criteria observation (UCO). The rating actions follow the publication on 28 February 2020 of Fitch's updated bank and non-bank financial institution rating criteria that include changes to the way the agency notches senior and junior ratings from their IDR or Viability Rating (VR) anchors. The updated criteria better reflect continuing developments in bank resolution, notably developments in bank resolution plans, the build-up of 'bail-in' debt buffers that protect more senior creditors and their implication for default risk and recovery prospects for senior and junior liability classes. Fitch has also reduced the base case notching for non-performance on additional tier 1 (AT1) instruments, narrowing the relative gap between Tier 2 and AT1 instruments where Fitch has reappraised its baseline treatment of non- performance risk. Ratings designated as being UCO will be reviewed and resolved as soon as practical and in any case within six months. Key Rating Drivers Fitch has placed UCO the IDRs, DCRs, senior debt, deposit, subordinated debt and hybrid debt ratings of the various issuers as outlined in the rating sensitivities section below. The rating actions reflect the possibility that these ratings will be upgraded or downgraded as a result of the publication of our new Bank Rating Criteria on 28 February 2020, as outlined in more detail in the Rating Sensitivities section of this rating action commentary.

  • Putting the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive to the Test
    KEY POINTS PUTTING THE AND BANK RESOLUTION RECOVERY DIRECTIVE THE TEST TO BayernLB and Austria are locked in a battle over the winding-down of Hypo-Alpe-Adria Feature Bank, with BayernLB one of the largest creditors “bailed in” under a new special law which cancels sub-sovereign guarantees. A complaint by BayernLB to the Austrian Constitutional Court may lead to a reference to the CJEU over interpretation of the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive. There are strong arguments that the new law fails to adhere to key restrictions on use of the bail-in tool. Interpretation of Arts 43 and 44 of the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive is likely to be crucial to determining the legality of cancelling sub-sovereign guarantees as part of a bail-in. Authors Hodge Malek QC and James Potts Putting the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive to the test This article examines a dispute over one of the most controversial European bank turing obligations until 2019; court bail-ins to date, of Hypo-Alpe-Adria Bank, and considers how the CJEU is likely to proceedings will determine whether they interpret the bail-in powers in the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive. qualify as restructuring obligations, in which case they will cease to exist; any liquidation profits to be distributed The likelihood of the Court of Justice provide welcome insight on the limits of proportionately to creditors of restruc- ■of the European Union (CJEU) the bail-in powers. turing obligations and then to share- being required to rule on EU bail-in holders, but without any regard to the legislation has significantly increased, as FEDERAL LAW ON REMEDIAL guarantees.

Group Financial Report – First quarter of 2011 Foreword Ladies and Gentlemen, BayernLB has kicked off financial year 2011 by continuing its series of satisfactory quarterly results. In the first three months of the current financial year, the BayernLB Group generated higher-than-forecast earnings before taxes of EUR 149 million. Compared to the Q1 2010 figure of EUR 498 million, which was considerably inflated by a strong tailwind from the capital markets and the resulting increase in valuations, the Bank has thus posted normalised and good quality results. Earnings before taxes for the quarter were generated solely from activities with corporate, retail and real estate customers, as well as the savings banks and the public sector, which the new BayernLB has defined as its core business.

Included in Covered Companies are foreign-based covered companies, which are defined in the Rule as “any covered company that is not incorporated or organized under the laws of the United States.” BayernLB Holding AG (“BayernLB” or the “Bank”) wholly owns Bayerische Landesbank, which itself has more than $50 billion in consolidated global assets, and operates a New York Branch (the “Branch”). Therefore, and as more fully explained below, BayernLB is considered a “Covered Company” under the Rule and must file this Resolution Plan with the Federal Reserve. Under the requirements of the Rule, Covered Companies are required to assess their U.S. banking operations for the presence of Material Entities,2 Critical Operations,3 and Core Business Lines.4 BayernLB determined that its U.S. operations have no Material Entities, Critical Operations, or Core Business Lines as defined in the Rule. b.
