Our financial results for 2012 show both the progress we have made and the challenges that remain. In 2012, the Bank revenues, net of interest expense rose to Lek 4,7 billion or increased by 16% comparing to 2011. The net profit of Lek 669 million showed a decline comparing to 2011 but that was a reflection of increased reserve for loans loss. Obviously, our net profit does not yet reflect the work we are doing to strengthen capital, reduce risk and attract more business from our customers. There are many issues weighing not only on us, but on the entire financial services sector. These include concerns about the global economy, the implementation of new regulations and capital requirements, how these new rules may affect our ability to deliver for our customers and clients, and the time it will take to resolve collateral issues. There is more work to do, but today we are better organized to serve our customers and clients, to offer customers more reasons to do more business with us, to earn the Artan SAntO, CEO profits our shareholders expect, and to contribute to economic growth in all of the communities we serve.

    Make Change Happen Make Green Common Enhancing Plant-based Diet Adoption In China Presented to: 1 1. Introduction Green Monday Foundation Limited Green Monday Foundation Limited was incorporated in 2012 with the aim to take on climate change, global food insecurity, health issues and animal welfare. It is a simple, viral and actionable platform for the public to adopt a plant-based diet at least once a week. Green Monday is about “Baby Steps to Go Green,” not attempting to convert people to become full-time vegetarians, nor does it require a dramatic lifestyle change commitment. Green Monday Foundation Limited is a non-profit making organization registered under Section 88 of the Inland Revenue Department, HKSAR. (Registration No.: 91/12665) 2. The Problems Global Food Crisis in the Next 30 Years Global population is expected to rise to over nine billion in the next 30 years. In the meantime, global meat consumption has doubled in the past two decades and is forecasted to further double by 2050. Unfortunately, livestock is an extremely inefficient way to produce food as it exhausts farmlands and water resources, and produces more greenhouse emissions (14.5% versus 13% of all man-made greenhouse gases). We are facing an imminent global food crisis. 2 Meat Consumption in China According to statistics from the Earth Policy Institute, with China’s burgeoning middle class, the country’s annual meat consumption has gone from being one third of the U.S. in 1978 to more than double the American’s today. Global Footprint Network even estimates that with this trend, we will soon need 4.1 planet earths.
