Gothenburg, May 26 2014 ______________________ _______________________ Adam Färnemyhr Joakim Lundström Abstract Bachelor’s Thesis in Accounting, School of Business, Economics and Law at the University of Gothenburg, spring term 2014 Authors: Adam Färnemyhr and Joakim Lundström Tutor: Gudrun Baldvinsdottir Title: Negative Operating Cash Flows – A Signal for Well-performing Commercial Banks? Background and problem discussion: Commercial banks are essential since they maintain and restore the stability in the economy. Thus, it is important to measure the performance of commercial banks. One key aspect in the analysis of the performance of companies is the cash flow statement. However, it is not used to analyse banks. Many of the largest Scandinavian commercial banks had negative operating cash flows for several consecutive years without suffering any liquidity issues. This phenomenon can be explained by the fact that commercial banks sell cash. A well-performing bank creates an outflow of cash since it sells more and more cash through lending. Consequently, it should be logical that well-performing commercial banks have negative operating cash flows due to increased lending. Purpose of the Study: This paper aims to study whether negative operating cash flows signal increased lending and, hence, improved performance for commercial banks. This thesis, also, intends to investigate if there are any differences between the correlations between the studied countries and, if so, why these differences arise. Furthermore, the purpose of this thesis is also to analyse the reasons behind the most extreme correlations found in the sample. Methodology: A hypothesis was derived by using a deductive approach. This hypothesis was tested through a quantitative correlational study between operating cash flows and return on equity for 39 commercial banks. The six banks with the most extreme correlations were studied more thoroughly. All the studied banks were from the original eleven Euro Area countries. They had to be active, listed and applying IFRS. The banks in this study cover more than 80% of all the banks that fulfilled the criteria above. Data was collected from the period 2005-2012. Empirical findings: The result of this thesis illustrates that slightly more than 50% of the commercial banks have a negative correlation between operating cash flows and return on equity. When studying the commercial banks with the most extreme correlations, four of six had negative correlations between change in lending and operating cash flows. The empirical findings also address similarities in correlation for commercial banks within countries and differences between countries. Conclusions: It cannot be statistically confirmed that there exists a negative correlation between return on equity and operating cash flows. Hence, the hypothesis can be rejected. This thesis has also illustrated that there may be common patterns in terms of cash flow reporting within countries, but these patterns may differ between countries or regions. It is difficult to clearly state why these patterns arise, they may be arbitrary but there is also a possibility that they depend on differences in accounting practices in each country. The disparate practices emerge as a result of the flexibility in the accounting standard IAS 7. Keywords: IAS 7, statement of cash flows, operating cash flows, return on equity, correlation, financial institutions, commercial banks, cash flow accounting, comment letters. Table of Contents 1.

    Commentary DBRS Morningstar Takes Actions on 5 Spanish Banks Amidst Heightened Uncertainty Around COVID-19 DBRS Morningstar Summary 15 April 2020 DBRS Morningstar has taken a number of rating actions today reflecting rising uncertainty and risks for Spanish banks due to the economic shutdown and market disruption resulting from the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic outbreak.

Arnaud Journois Vice President - Global FIG +49 (69) 8088 3526 The pandemic outbreak has led to significant deterioration in the operating environment, for banks [email protected] in Spain and DBRS Morningstar anticipates a major increase in banks' risk exposures over coming months. A national lockdown in Spain will be in place for at least 6 weeks (from 14 March to 27 April), although this is likely to be extended. This included a total lockdown during two of those weeks, when all economic activities were suspended with the exception of essential activities. As a result, the wide and growing scale of economic and market disruption resulting from COVID-19 poses significant operational challenges and will put pressure on all Spanish banks’ revenues, profits and asset quality, at least for 2020.

The most active country was Italy, which totalled half of the total volume of NPL sales. In 2018, 64 NPL sales with a gross book value (GBV) of EUR 103.6bn were tracked in the country, almost half of which were via securitisations within the government’s Garanzia sulla Cartolarizzazione delle Sofferenze (GACS) scheme, which now has only until 6 March 2019 to run. Spain has started to see a slowdown of sales, but still completed a massive EUR 43.2bn in 27 deals.

All rights reserved Page 2 Introduction Context and objective In June 2020 the EBA published the results of the Spring 2020 EU-wide transparency exercise, which provide detailed information on, among others, capital, leverage, risk weighted assets (RWA), P&L, credit risk, market risk, or asset quality Introduction • The EBA has been conducting transparency exercises at the EU-wide level on an annual basis since 2011. The transparency exercise is part of the EBA's ongoing efforts to foster transparency and market discipline in the EU financial market, and complements banks' own Pillar 3 disclosures, as laid down in the EU's capital requirements directive (CRD). • Further, the transparency exercises are, unlike the stress tests, disclosure exercises where only bank-by-bank data are published and no shocks are applied to the actual data. • In this context, the EBA has published the results of the Spring 2020 EU-wide transparency exercise1, which comes as an exceptional disclosure in response to the outbreak of COVID-19. • The Board of Supervisors agreed on this additional EU-wide transparency exercise with the aim of providing updated information on banks’ exposures and asset quality to market participants, which is crucial in moments of increased uncertainty • All data coming from the Spring 2020 exercise can serve as a benchmark on the condition of the banking sector before the pandemic crisis and as a starting point for the analysis of the crisis impact.
