Headquarters and Branches 25 Appendix : Annual Financial Reports for 34 2019 and 2018 I. Message to Shareholders 2019 was a challenging year in terms of global economics. From the China-USA trade conflict to the UK's Brexit and protests in Hong Kong, the financial market had been under the influence of one major crisis after another. Taiwan was one of the few that benefited from the crises, as a shift in production orders combined with back flow of Taiwanese investors stimulated capital expenditure and growth of domestic demands. According to the Directorate-General of Budget, Accounting and Statistics, economic growth for 2019 was better than expected at 2.73%, increasing 0.10% from 2018. The financial industry as a whole generated NT$634.1 billion of pre-tax income, of which the banking industry delivered record-high NT$400 billion in pre-tax income. Taipei Fubon Bank has long adhered to the goal of maintaining consistent growth under controlled risk, and managed to accomplish great business success by focusing on five strategic goals: "lifestyle finance, precision investment, Greater China, technology and brand value" in 2019. The Bank reported 12.19% higher consolidated revenues of NT$51.4 billion for the year; net interest income and net fee income increased 9.27% and 13.90%, respectively, to deliver record-high consolidated net income of NT$20.6 billion, representing a 9.62% growth. Consolidated total assets amounted to NT$3,298 billion at the end of the year, whereas net loan balance was reported at NT$1,491.8 billion and total deposit balance at NT$2,304.2 billion. Below are the outcomes of operational strategies implemented in 2019: (I) Enhanced customer relations and demand-driven Taipei Fubon Bank adheres to a "customer-centric" philosophy and explores innovation and service improvement with a focus on customers' needs, for which it has earned the strong support and trust of its customers. In wholesale banking, the Bank achieved rapid growth in terms of SME credit and foreign currency assets, and saw rising market share in offshore corporate lending/deposit service, ranking 2nd among private banks. Meanwhile, the Bank maintained leading position in syndicated lending, and ranked 2nd among private banks in market share. As for consumer banking, the Bank's ongoing efforts in branch transformation, customer relationship management and localization have enabled product and service innovations that are ultimately reflected in terms of growing deposit, investment, insurance and loan amidst the challenging market. Overall, the Bank delivered more favorable performance compared to the previous year, and ranked 2nd in mortgage balance, 3rd in total insurance sales, and 2nd in regular insurance sales among private banks. (II) Digital transformation and innovation - 1 - The Bank has been introducing new banking models for broader scenarios by incorporating new technologies and innovations with its banking profession as a response to the rapidly changing financial environment. In addition to launching the Omiyage Card for outgoing tourists, Taipei Fubon Bank also cooperated with group affiliates to introduce” momo” co-branded card that increased total outstanding cards to 2.99 million, making it one of the top-5 card issuers in Taiwan. The Bank has been cooperating with Nutmeg, the UK's largest smart investment platform, to operate its own AI-powered investment platform called "Nano Investment." By the end of December, more than NT$1.4 billion of assets were managed under "Nano Investment," making it the largest smart investment platform in Taiwan. For consumer banking, the Bank developed a cloud-based decision-making system aimed at introducing a new customer-centric banking model and delivering service experience that more appropriately meets the needs of the new consumer generation. With regards to new payment and blockchain application, the Bank was the first bank in Taiwan to apply blockchain technology in a sandbox experiment of interbank transfer. This technology even has the potential to be applied in scenarios such as cross-border remittance and supply chain financing in the future. Taipei Fubon Bank has envisioned itself as the pioneer of banking reform and transformation, and takes progressive steps toward accomplishing its vision of "Banking in all aspects of life." Having recently been approved for the co-founding of an online-only bank called "LINE Bank," Taipei Fubon Bank will continue building an ecosystem of strategic partners and exert leadership in digital technology to realize the full potentials of the online-only bank.
