22 Banca Generali 2009 First Quarter Results Closing Remarks

Banca Generali well equipped to face opportunities/challenges in any market conditions

A very good start of the year, confirming that the medium-long term strategy run by Banca Generali was appropriate:

¾ Defensive asset allocation coupled with network quality upgrade and strength of Generali brand led to achieve very positive inflows over the period, both in terms of volumes and quality

¾ The widest range of products (Banking Products, Life Insurance, Asset Management) coupled with Open Architecture is more and more confirming to be a “must” to be competitive and for retention/attraction of top Consultants. Banca Generali enjoys a real competitive advantage in the market

¾ Healthy P&L results even in a tough quarter like 1Q09 and solid balance allowing to effectively sustain Company’s growth

¾ Large cost efficiency programme has been definitely set up and will give benefits in the late ‘09 and ’10

¾ Excellent flexibility to raise the equity market exposure leveraging on the large existing liquidity (€3 billion) and large share of total return products (€1.7 billion)

In a nutshell, our business model is designed to deliver excellent results in any market conditions
