Increasingly, banks which incorporate ESG factors into their lending and investment decisions enjoy a “sustainability premium” which helps drive outperformance. Innovest analysis continues to demonstrate that superior ESG performance can result in superior share price performance as well. Figure 1 below shows the max, min and median one year total return on investment (capital growth and dividend) for the 60 largest banks categorized by Innovest Overall ratings (a seven tier scale where AAA=Best, BBB= average, and CCC=worst).1 In it we can see that banks with strong Innovest ratings have less volatility and higher average performance compared with their competitors rated BBB and below. The performance of BBs over the past year also shows that extra-financial research is an overlay - not a substitute - for quantitative analysis. A bank which takes risks out of its ESG comfort zone may still win on the bets that it placed. However, this chart shows that banks rated A and above more consistently do well. The Innovest ratings used are those as of 30th September 2005 and the stock price change is in local currency over a one-year period to September 30 2006.

This section specifically addresses banks’ strategies to deal with: The Growth of the Sub Prime Market American and UK banks have aggressively pursued the estimated $1.4trillion of income held by customers with impaired, or no credit, and have also targeted the immigrant population. Stakeholder Engagement and Credit Quality There is growing evidence that Banks with strong stakeholder engagement, widely implemented financial education initiatives and an adaptive product portfolio are outperforming in the lucrative sub-prime market. The Decline of the US Housing Market Between 2002 and 2005 the percentage of bank loans allocated to residential real estate shot up from 23%to 32.5% as banks lowered their risk threshold to throw more money into the booming housing market. We examine strategies to weather the downturn. The Global Thrift Shift As household savings rates deteriorate in the US, UK, and Australia, in much of the developing world households save between 20 and 40% of their disposable income. 1.2 Corporate Lending and Project Finance Banks which are not able to incorporate ESG risk into their corporate lending operations are more vulnerable to exogenous shocks. Conversely, banks which understand ESG risks are able to more effectively navigate complicated risk landscapes and spot opportunities that less sustainable banks overlook. This section looks at: Key ESG Risks Confronting Corporate Lending Divisions In this section we analyze how Greenhouse gas Regulation, extreme weather patterns associated with climate change, environmental degradation in high gorwth emerging market and emerging market instabilty factor into corporate lending performance. 3 Innovest Strategic Value Advisors Global Banking Sector Report, Overview www.innovestgroup.com November 2006 Environmental, Social and Governance Upside In this section we look at how new opportunities in renewable energy and clean technology, sustainable growth in emerging market economies, and stronger credit risk management are driving outperformance. Corpoprate Lending In China In this section we analyze China’s rapidly evolving political economy and how it impacts new entrants into the Chinese banking sector. 1.3 Asset Management and Investment Banking There is a growing body of research which shows that incorporating ESG factors into equity valuations can lead to decreased volatility and increased performance. Obviously, this depends on the strategy deployed, and the time horizon. Investors and traders with a short time horizon, however, can use ESG factors to predict binary events. This section discusses: The Sustainability Premium in Asset Management Research shows that by incorporating ESG factors, valuation models used by asset management divisions can add outperformance. Emissions Trading Transnational regulation limiting toxic emissions has created fast growing cap and trade markets. The financial sector plays a critical role in financing companies’ emissions compliance and developing the emissions trading market. Governance Challenges in China Throughout the financial sector banks have been scrambling for positions in China’s capital and corporate lending markets, even though the country has not entirely shed its command economy past. We zero in on political reforms in China’s markets and focus on which banks are best positioned to navigate China’s political economy. Stable, Sustainable Development in Emerging Markets Banks play a critical role in capitalizing emerging market growth. Banks whose lending and investment decisions can foster strong, sustainable long term growth are better positioned to outperform in the long term. 4 Innovest Strategic Value Advisors Global Banking Sector Report, Overview www.innovestgroup.com November 2006 Section 2 BEST PRACTICE IN THE GLOBAL BANKING SECTOR Executive Summary In Section 3 of the Global Banking Report, Innovest analyzes the best ESG practices in the sector and zeros in on the four pillars that underpin a bank’s Innovest rating.

  • The Influence of Greek Banking Capital in Non- Eurozone Countries
    European Research Studies, Volume XIII, Issue (2), 2010 The Influence of Greek Banking Capital in Non- Eurozone Countries Carmen Adriana Gheorghe1, Ioana Nicolae2 Abstract: The Greek debt crisis is poised to undermine already dwindling investment flows into south-eastern Europe's emerging economies, adding to barriers to recovery in one of the continent's most fragile regions. Greek lending in Central and Eastern Europe is concentrated mainly in Romania and Bulgaria, both struggling to recover from sharp economic contractions and most exposed to any scaling back in funding as Greece's banks shore up their own finances. Greece has been a major investor in the region- it is the second biggest in Serbia- since the fall of communism in 1989. Its problems have so far had only a limited impact on nearby states and it is unclear how much of a drag it may create. The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development- B.E.R.D.- warned of potential hits to bank systems and economies and analysts have also raised concerns. Greek firms are also not expected to invest heavily in their usual target areas as they digest severe government cost cuts at home, while simple proximity to a country that has become the latest trouble spot on investors' radar may also be an issue. Greek banks could be the main canal to transmit the crisis in Romania. At the same time, the measures of prudenciality taken by Central Bank should counteract the possible difficulties for Romanian banking system. Keywords: Greek Banking Capital, Non-eurozone countries, dept crisis. 1. Foreword Within the Romanian banking system there are 4 important Greek banks: Alphabank, Bancpost owned by EFG Eurobank, Piraeus Bank and The Romanian Bank part of the NBG Group.
