(1) Macroeconomic environment
(1.1) Hungarian economy
Hungary's economic performance has been very subdued during 2024. According to first estimates (which include GDP data for
2024 Q4), output for the year as a whole grew by 0.5% in raw terms and by 0.6% in adjusted terms compared to 2023. Growth
expectations gradually declined over the year, but the Q4 2024 GDP data beat analysts' consensus, with GDP volume rising by
0.5% on a quarterly and 0.2% on an annual basis. On the contribution side, services activity was mainly supportive, while a
decline in industrial, agricultural and construction output tended to dampen the recovery. On the consumption side, private
consumption showed a mixed picture, with some growth in household final consumption but a sharp fall in investment (both in
the private and public sectors) as market funding remains expensive and the lack of subsidies and EU funds is difficult to
replace. In addition, external demand has been very subdued in Europe and in other major export markets. This could turn
positively from 2025 onwards. After a high inflation period, consumption could continue to pick up on the back of falling
savings rates, and, assuming external demand strengthens, demand for capital investment could also start to rise, with all
sectors contributing positively to GDP growth alongside export demand from industry, which is still suffering from low capacity
utilisation. In addition, the base effect could be supportive in 2025, with upside risks to the expected GDP growth of 2.5% for
the year as a whole. The unemployment rate has been mixed over 2024, but has remained below its multi-year average and
below trend over the long term, with a 3-month moving average of 4.7% in December 2023 and 4.4% in December 2024. The
labour market remains tight, hence the pace of wage outflows is only moderating slowly (in November 2024 the annual growth
rate of average gross wages was 11.9%, which means a 13.5% increase for January-November). In 2025, it is expected to be
somewhere between 9-10%, rather than double digits. Inflation stood at 4.6% at the end of the year, while it was 3.7% for 2024
as a whole. The headline CPI is expected to decline further over 2025 and in the longer term, along which core inflation is also
expected to catch up to the 3% medium-term target within a few quarters. Against this backdrop, some technical factors and
stronger-than-expected food and fuel inflation have pushed up near-term inflation risks. Inflation is likely to average 4% in
2025, which means that monthly figures around the upper end of the central bank's 2-4% tolerance band could characterise
the coming quarters in particular. Regarding interest rate policy, in 2024 the effective interest rate declined further from 10.75%
to 6.5%, but in Q4 2024 the easing cycle stopped as the HUF showed greater vulnerability than before, and expectations of an
expected decline in developed market interest rates were reassessed. Interest rate cuts may continue in 2025: no rate cuts are
expected until mid-year, with three 25 bp cuts in late Q2 2025, i.e. in June, followed by September and December. The risk
premia that the market anticipates for HUF assets have widened somewhat over the past year, while the risk-free developed
market rate itself may be on a higher forward trajectory than previously thought. Against this backdrop, the EUR/HUF
exchange rate, which has risen from around 380 in the first half of last year to close to 410 by the end of the year, could
continue to move north in the short to medium term, with a trading range of 405-420 emerging in 2025.
(1.2) The banking sector
In the first three quarters of 2024, according to data of the National Bank of Hungary (NBH) the banking sector recorded a HUF
1,567 billion profit after taxation on consolidated level. The net interest income was 4% higher than in 2023, while fee and
commission income increased to a higher extent, by 15%.
Operating expenses increased by 4% compared to the same period of last year. In the first three quarters of 2024, net loss
allowance and risk provision decreased further (by 17%), contributing to the banking sector's results.
The sector’s net assets were HUF 94,458 billion, which represents an 6% increase compared to the same period of 2023.
Corporate loans decreased by 1%, while retail loans increased by 11% compared to last year. The balance of deposits from
customers also increased, the total balance of deposits from retail and non-financial companies increased by 7% compared to
the same period of last year.
The ratio of non-performing loans decreased slightly from 2.7% to 2.4% compared to the same period of last year.
The cost-to-income ratio (CIR) was 50.9% in the first three quarters of 2024, which is slightly better than the last year’s 52.4%.
The RoE and RoA ratios have also changed, decreasing to 19.5% (from 22.7%) and 2.2% (from 2.4%), respectively. The liquidity
status and capital adequacy of the sector are appropriate.

(3) Business activity
(3.1) Balance sheet
The Group's total assets increased by 4.13% (HUF 183 billion) in 2024, and its market share has decreased during the year, from
6.00% at 2023 year-end to 5.86%.The outstanding growth in volumes of recent years continued during 2024, following the
slowdown observed in 2023, so there was an increase in both customer liabilities and customer assets.

The Group's loan/deposit ratio remained almost unchanged (60.57%), due to the nearly same increase in customer assets and
liabilities. This is in line with the current investment climate influenced by inflation and interest rates, a trend across the sector.
The Group’s own funds increased by 4.70% in 2024, primarily driven by outstanding profit after tax. The Group's capital level
remains stable, with a solvency ratio that climbed to 29.36%, thanks to a profitable period in recent years and additional core
and additional capital items provided by the owner

Bond Programme with an envelope of HUF 100 billion, which were updated in the course of 2024. Under the programmes, the
Bank issued (partly green) MREL-eligible bonds to institutional and retail investors. Further emissions followed in 2024, under
more favourable macroeconomic conditions, totalling EUR 350.39 million. Thus, MREL closing stock increased by EUR 7.48 million
from 2023 to 2024.

The Group recognised HUF 115,952 million for the business year, which was 12.29% higher than the result of the previous year.
The main components of profit are the following:
· Net interest income decreased by 6.96% compared to last year, reflecting the declining yield environment in the
forint market.
· Commission income improved significantly compared to the previous year, driven by higher income on payment
services and investment management fees.
· The increase in the Group's operating costs was primarily caused by the increase in wage costs compensating for
the exceptionally high inflationary environment of 2023 and the resources devoted to digital developments
supporting the Group's strategic objectives.
· During 2024, the Group recorded HUF 13,174 million lower risk costs compared to the previous year.
· In the other result category, the loss  was lower than last year due to the Group’s share from the extraordinary
surtax charged on the banking sector and a lower revaluation loss contributed to a smaller loss compared to the
previous year.
· In 2024, the Group's tax liability increased by HUF 5,961 million compared to the previous year. This is primarily due to
higher business and corporate tax induced by higher sales and profit before tax.
The Group's revenue growth rate exceeded that of costs, resulting in a further improvement in the cost-to-income ratio in 2024
(32.02%). The Group’s return on equity was 24.52% in 2024.
(3.3) Events after the reporting date
The sole shareholder decided to pay a dividend of HUF 114,505 million aligned with the approval of the financial statements
and after the general reserve allocation. This amount consists of HUF 80,153 million forints to be paid out from current year's
after-tax profit and HUF 34,352 million to be distributed from retained earnings.
The final capital adequacy ratios considering the inclusion of current year’s profit and dividends are CET1 15.92%, TIER1 18.64%,
total capital adequacy ratio 22.73%.
(4) Presentation of the business segment’s
performance
(4.1) Corporate and Investment Banking business segment
The Group’s corporate and investment banking business segment maintained its dominant role in the commercial banking
market in 2024, further increased its loan portfolio, and, with its 8-10% market share, is one of the leading market players in the
mid and large corporate segment, and it belongs to the leading banks in export finance and treasury services as well.

Consolidated business report
The largest portion of the Group’s green assets arise from its project financing and syndication activity, which is an important
pillar of the ESG strategy of the entire banking group. In line with this, in 2024 the majority of newly disbursed project loans are
green loans, both in the property and non-property categories.
The expansion of the loan portfolio was achieved with a conservative business policy and risk-taking. Overall, the loan portfolio
remained of excellent quality.
The Group's trade and export financing area tried to maintain its previous business activity despite a significant reduction in
the range of supported programs in 2024. In the case of the Széchenyi program, the elimination of crisis support titles and the
reduction of the maximum available limits negatively impacted lending. For Exim, the only available supported and refinanced
program was the HUF 200 billion BGH Plus program, announced in the first quarter of 2024 and fully utilized within the same
quarter. Although Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. managed to participate in both supported programs at a rate exceeding its market
share, this could not compensate for the amortization of the previous supported loan portfolio in 2024.
The agriculture sector faced several adverse effects in 2024. Firstly, for the second time in three years, significant drought
affected key crop-producing areas in the country, causing substantial yield losses and severely impacting crop quality (high
toxin levels). In livestock farming, avian influenza has been a persistent issue for years, and spring frosts continue to decimate
fruit yields annually. The only positive news in the agricultural sector was the launch of the "CAP ST. II. Pillar" grant system in the
second half of 2024, which generated significant demand due to its highly favourable conditions (non-repayable grants,
interest subsidies, and guarantee fee subsidies). However, the evaluation of these applications is expected in the second and
third quarters of 2025, with financing opportunities becoming available during that period.
In 2024, the Group's documentary services area continued its successful operations, achieving a year-over-year revenue
increase of over 10%. This was accomplished despite the significant decline in the construction industry, which constitutes the
majority of documentary transactions. The decline was due to both a reduction in government orders and a noticeable
decrease in demand in the housing and office rental markets.
Important part of the Group's client service model is the financing of municipalities, entities owned by municipalities, non-profit
companies, associations, condominiums and other communities. It provides a full range of advanced financial services to its
clients and securely handles deposits placed with the Group. Services focus on managing clients' investments and providing
investment, development and project loans to municipalities, associations and condominiums. In the latter activities, ESG
aspects and sustainable financing come to the fore, so the Group strives to ensure that as much of the newly disbursed loans
as possible are green loans.
The Group supports the use of banking services for corporate and municipal clients through the continuous development of
digital channels. The role of the branch network and personal interactions has evolved, merging into a new "phygital" format. In
addition to the instant payment system, the Group supports clients with "QR code" and "Payment request" based payments, as
well as card acceptance solutions (POS and VPOS). The digital developments ensure efficient customer service and also
facilitate the use of ASP services by municipalities.
The financial institutions and custody segment had another successful year in 2024, similar to previous years, further
increasing its deposit and loan portfolios. Additionally, it was successful in expanding transaction volumes and products, with
particular emphasis on innovative cash management services. Despite increasing competition, the intensive growth of assets
under custody also continued.
The Group’s cash, foreign exchange and capital market department – according to the statistics of the National Bank of
Hungary – once again made the largest foreign exchange volume among banks in Hungary in 2024 and also was the biggest
player in the derivative section of Budapest Stock Exchange. In the first half of 2024, the Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. was the second-
largest primary dealer of Hungarian government securities, while it secured the fourth position in the second half of the year.
Additionally, the Bank was once again awarded the title of Domestic Equity Trading Platform of the Year for its Raiffeisen
Online Broker service in 2024.
(4.2) Retail clients
The Retail Division also had a successful year in 2024: by the end of 2024, the number of retail individual (Mass) and Premium
banking customers exceeded the year-end 2023 figures by 2%; revenues increased despite unexpected tax changes, and
Raiffeisen Bank Zrt.'s NPS (Net Promoter Score) remained among the best among leading universal banks (annual NPS: 25).
The outstanding results were partly due to the improving economic environment (declining inflation, rising real wages) and
partly to the Group's internal business development activities. 2024 was a year of product innovation and optimization in retail
account products: in February, the Group introduced 2 new premium accounts, and in November, a new retail account (called
Active account), while suspending the sale of previous account products. The goal is to make the Group’s account product
portfolio easy to understand and transparent for customers, and to increase synergy and interoperability between segments.
In the spirit of optimization, the Group is also continuing to simplify the bankcard offerings. The Group’s acquisition goals were
greatly supported by the implementation of the online account opening function in the myRaiffeisen mobile application in
2024, which is becoming increasingly popular among the customers.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
Consolidated business report

The Group continued its digital developments across various platforms to provide customers with a modern, high-quality
customer experience in managing their everyday finances. Our digital strategy continues to focus on expanding the functions
of the myRaiffeisen mobile application and the range of online products. Thanks to these developments, the number of online
account openings and online product applications has significantly increased, and more services are available 24/7 in the
application. In 2024, the Group plays a leading role in introducing innovative payment solutions, such as implementing cash-in
ATMs in several branches and being the first in the market to introduce qvik payment acceptance. For sustainable
development, the Group has also made carbon footprint tracking available in the myRaiffeisen application.
Investor activity and appetite remained high among customers in 2024. There was strong interest and demand for investment
funds, and demand for government securities remained relatively stable despite changes in the market interest rate
environment. Interest in other savings options continued to stagnate among retail customers due to the low-interest
environment.
The division also continued its successful business activities in retail lending. Demand for retail mortgage loans increased
significantly, especially in the second half of the year. Demand for personal loans also grew significantly, exceeding
expectations, while the sale of baby loan remained balanced even after regulatory tightening at the beginning of the year. The
stabilization of macroeconomic conditions resulted in an interest rate level supportive of lending, further strengthened by the
increase in real wages.
In lending, a key objective is to meet customer needs where security and predictability are the main priorities. Another strategic
focus is digitalization, where most customers already used the fully online application process for personal loans, and even
more existing customers applied for overdrafts and credit cards online. The Group aims to make this application option
available for more products and a wider range of customers in the near future.
Overall, a key goal remains to continuously improve the customer experience in retail lending, with digitalization playing a
crucial role. The Group is confident that with further improvements in external conditions, lending will remain strong, further
supported by the new worker loan scheme starting in January 2025.
The Group's market share in retail loan portfolios did not change significantly, standing at 5.5% at the end of December 2024.
(4.3) Private Banking clients
The aim of Raiffeisen Private Banking is to preserve, increase and pass on the family wealth of high-net-worth clients from
generation to generation. With the expert work of experienced consultants, the Group provides its key clients with safety,
comfort, discretion and customised tailor-made solutions.
Raiffeisen Private Banking had an extremely successful year in 2024. Thanks to the honourable trust of its clients, the assets
entrusted to management reached HUF 1,295 billion by the end of the year, which represents an increase of nearly 30% in a
single year. In order to ensure effective and efficient service of the increased wealth, and maintain the brand promise, the
capacities have also been increased. The visible expansion of Private Banking continuously strengthens the Group's market
position.
Constitute and maintain the satisfaction of key private customers is inconceivable without personalized solutions and the
highest level of service. Accordingly, Raiffeisen Private Banking continued to invest significantly in 2024 in introducing new
products and services, as well as in developing the knowledge base of IT systems and banking advisors.
Recently, digitalization has received a special focus, as a result of which not only customers can manage their finances
smoothly and independently, but employees can also be available at access points far from their workplace. During 2024, there
was a strong focus on reducing administrative burdens, resulting in the Group significantly reduced paper consumption and
the number of signatures.
(4.4) Financial institutions
The financial institutions segment is of strategic priority for the Group, which continues to grow dynamically, thanks to its
comprehensive and unique customer service model, a wide range of products and continuous innovation.
The key target group of the business segment remains domestic insurance companies, investment fund managers, funds, as
well as domestic and international financial institutions and investment service providers, which are supported by new,
innovative solutions and products to serve their clients at a high level, fast and securely. In addition to the above, the domestic
and international banking relationships were in focus as well along with – considering the Group’s strategy, furthermore
adhering to strict compliance principles – international payment service providers and Raiffeisen Bank Zrt.’s contracted
currency exchange brokers. Since 2021, the Group's financial institutions business segment has successfully effected the
professional coordination of payment service providers (PSPs) within the banking group and implemented the strategy for this
market segment.

Consolidated business report
Assets in the financial institutions area continued to increase significantly throughout 2024, building on the high levels achieved
in previous years,  while maintaining a moderate risk profile and a low capital requirement character. Despite market
turbulence and regulatory changes, deposits successfully expanded. In addition to interest income, the increase in fee and
commission income also contributed to the significant above-plan results. The business segment continues to be characterised
by a stable stock of liabilities and long-term, reliable customer relationships. The risk cost of the area is extremely moderate,
and its cost-to-income ratio has stabilized at a very low level.
With the support of strengthened group-wide management at its headquarters in Vienna and through the Vienna parent
bank’s direct relationships with central securities depositories in Central and Eastern Europe, the Group provides priority
custody services for the management of clients' investments directed to this region. In 2024, the Group's custody department
continued its successful operations, maintaining an intensive growth trend in both the number of domestic clients and the
assets under custody, despite the changing market and regulatory environment and increasing competition.
Clear positive feedback from both customers and the profession proves that the Group is one of the strongest brands in the
regional financial and capital markets, as well as in serving financial institutions and product innovations.
(4.5) Subsidiaries
Raiffeisen Corporate Lízing Zrt.
Since 2014, the Company, which is 100% Bank-owned, has been the unified entity within the Raiffeisen Leasing group for
providing financial leasing services exclusively to non-consumer clients, as well as special state-supported loan schemes for
financing the purchase of assets, vehicles, and equipment.
The Company has been a significant player in the medium and large corporate segment for years, primarily by serving the
leasing needs of banking clients. The passenger car and heavy commercial vehicle financing business is a key strategic focus.
The Company continued its previously initiated strategy in 2024, in which, in addition to leasing financing of vehicle and/or
asset investments of medium and large corporate customers, increasing emphasis is placed on boosting leasing services for
the micro and small enterprise segment. In addition to its own sales channels, special emphasis is placed on mobilizing the
Bank's medium and large corporate sales network and exploiting sales synergies related to common customers. The goal
remains to maintain the good quality of the portfolio , keep costs low through cost-effective operation, and establish and
maintain long-term profitable operation.
Raiffeisen Autó Lízing Kft.
The Company is 100% owned subsidiary of Raiffeisen Corporate Lízing Zrt.. The popularity of operating lease dropped
significantly due to the accounting method prescribed by IFRSs and due to the availability of finance leases with preferential
interest conditions (NHP, EXIM, KAVOSZ) and as a consequence of that a decrease occurred in the vehicle and asset financing
provided without fleet service. The strategy of the Company is the demand-based client servicing and individual management
of transactions and it does not put an emphasis on concluding new businesses in operating leasing arrangements.
Raiffeisen Biztosításközvetítő Kft.
The Bank was the sole owner until 30.06.2024, when it was terminated by legal succession following an ownership decision. The
Company's main activity was insurance brokerage, primarily for member companies of the Raiffeisen Bank Group.
At the beginning the main source of revenue of the Company stemmed from small and medium enterprise segment but later it
began to sell its insurance products also in large enterprise and leasing segment as well.
The Bank has started to operate as a dependent single agent effective from 1 April 2022. From this date, in addition to the
products transferred from the Company, the Bank will also manage the portfolio of insurance policies currently actively sold by
the Bank, and therefore the Bank will also realise the commission income related to these products.
The 2022 legislative change also allowed dependent single agents to maintaining stocks of competing products. With regards
to this, the Company has transferred its entire stock to the Bank with effect from 1 May 2023, from which date the Bank will
also realize the related commission income. From autumn 2023, insurance related to leasing products will also be sold through
the dependent single agent. These transformations had a significant impact on commission income. Thus, in October 2023, the
owner of the Company decided to merge its 100% share in Raiffeisen Biztosításközvetítő Kft. into SCT Kárász utca Kft.
RB Szolgáltató Központ Kft.
The Company was founded by the Bank in order to open and operate a banking operating center in Nyíregyháza. Its activity
began as call center and sales activity and that extended to phone collection, credit assessment and banking operation
activities.

The Company finances asset purchases necessary to its operation from investment loans, its financial situation and liquidity is
stable, its operation is profitable.
The number of the Company’s employees increased to over 400 and remained above that level throughout 2023 and 2024. It
operates by improving its processes and further enhancing the quality of its service. In accordance with the Group’s strategy, it
moved to a new headquarters in June 2022, allowing colleagues to perform their banking operations tasks in a more modern
working environment that better supports the processes.
RB Szolgáltató Központ Kft. ceased its activities on 31.12.2024 based on a decision of the owner. The entire staff and equipment
necessary for the performance of the activities were taken over and purchased by the owner Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. The Bank will
continue to carry out the previous activities of RB Szolgáltató Központ Kft. at the same level starting on 1 January 2025.
Raiffeisen Befektetési Alapkezelő Zrt.
The Company is a 100% owned subsidiary of the Bank. The Company's assets under management grew at a strong pace in
2024, albeit at a slower pace than in previous years and the market average. In the first quarter of the period, assets under
management expanded steadily, but stagnated after March, due to the declining investor interest in short-term bond funds.
Investors' focus increasingly shifted to actively managed funds that change their portfolios quickly. June brought new
momentum in asset changes, partly as a result of the weakening of the forint, and partly due to the fact that demand for
mixed and equity funds, which were less popular in previous years, and for the aforementioned managed funds with an
absolute return target, was able to more than compensate for the outflow of assets from bond funds. The summer months
brought an even smaller slowdown, but the Company ended the year with an asset growth above the market average. In
addition to managed funds with a mixed and absolute return objective, assets managed in ESG funds also benefited from the
segment rotation that is otherwise typical at the sector level, while real estate base assets eroded further due to less
competitive performance. Another benefit of the year was the increased investor interest in funds and series not denominated
in forints.
The Company's operating profit developed favourably, in which, in addition to the rapid growth of revenues, also the controlled
costs played a role.
In recent years, the Company has revamped its product set to align with market challenges. The first step in this process was
the creation of three funds targeting different risk levels, equipped with active management and stringent risk control, in
collaboration with the Austrian asset manager of the Raiffeisen Group. Additionally, in recent years, euro- and dollar-
denominated series have been launched for the majority of the managed funds alongside the forint series. As a result of the
next step in the product set transformation, the Company now manages five ESG-focused funds, ensuring that clients can
choose between traditional and ESG products across all major asset classes. Furthermore, the Company successfully executed
a strategic shift in its absolute return funds, significantly increasing their popularity. The success of the Company is signalled
by its operations having been awarded with a number of prizes in the past years.
SCT Kárász utca Kft.
It is a 100% owned subsidiary of the Bank. The activity of the Company is facility management.
Its business activities for 2022 and 2023 focused on the management and operation of the properties it owns, which is not
expected to change during the 2024 financial year.
Raiffeisen Ingatlan Üzemeltető Kft.
It is a 100% owned subsidiary of Raiffeisen Befektetési Alapkezelő Zrt. The activity of the Company is facility management,

(6) Financial instruments
The Group prepares its financial statements in accordance with the requirements of IFRS.
In accordance with the requirements of IFRSs and Accounting Law the Group shall from 2018 on – in accordance with IFRS9 –
classify its financial assets as measured at amortised cost, measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, or
measured at fair value through profit or loss, based on
·               the Group’s business model to manage the financial assets; and
·               the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets.
A financial asset shall be measured at amortised cost, if both of the below conditions are met:
· the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect
contractual cash flows; and
· the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
A financial asset shall be measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if both of the below conditions are met:
· the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash
flows and selling financial assets; and
· the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
A financial asset shall be measured at fair value through profit or loss, except when in accordance with the above it is
measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income.
The Group can at initial recognition irrevocably elect to present the subsequent changes in the fair value of certain equity
instruments, that otherwise would be measured at fair value through profit or loss, in other comprehensive income.
The Group may, at initial recognition, irrevocably designate a financial asset as measured at fair value through profit or loss if
doing so eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency (sometimes referred to as an
'accounting mismatch') that would otherwise arise from measuring assets or liabilities or recognising the gains and losses on
them on different bases.
The Group shall classify all financial liabilities as measured at amortised cost, except for those cases described in the
standards in detail, in which cases they shall be treated as financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss.
The accounting policy of the Group and a number of disclosures requires the determination of fair value of financial assets and
liabilities. Fair value is determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the below methods.
All financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value plus directly attributable transaction costs (except for financial
instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss in which case transaction costs are charged directly to profit or loss).
The fair value is the price that the Group would receive in case of selling an asset or the Group would have to pay in case of
transferring a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Subsequent to initial recognition the basis of determining fair value of financial instruments quoted in active markets is the bid
price in case of assets and the ask price in case of liabilities. If observable price is not available, fair value is determined using
valuation techniques that rely on observable market data. The method may be comparison with similar instruments for which
there is an observable quoted market price, discounted cash flow analysis, option pricing models and other valuation
techniques commonly used by market participants. Fair value of financial instruments may be determined using techniques
based entirely or partly on assumptions that are not underpinned by actual market transactions or observable market data.
The Group designed the following methodology to determine fair value:
Derivative transactions:
· Fair value of foreign currency forward and futures transactions is the difference between the forward exchange
rate, determined for the maturity of the transaction and prevailing at the valuation date, and the strike price,
discounted from date of maturity to valuation date.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
Consolidated business report
9
· Fair value of cross currency swaps is the difference between the forward exchange rate, determined for the
maturity of the transaction and prevailing at the valuation date, and the strike price, discounted from date of
maturity to valuation date, calculated for the forward leg. Yield curves used for the purpose of the valuation
incorporate current market interest premium.
· Fair value of interest rate swaps and forward rate agreements (FRA) is the net present value of the expected future
cash flows discounted to the valuation date.
· Fair value of plain vanilla and exotic foreign currency options is determined using the modified Black-Scholes model.
In case of exotic options for which no closed formula exist, values are determined using iterative techniques.
· Fair value of cross currency interest rate swaps is the net present value of the expected future cash flows of the
instrument discounted to the valuation date, where we incorporate into the yield curve used for the purpose of the
valuation the interest rate premium (basis swap spread) representative to the market of those instruments (also
including country risk premium).
· Fair value of stock and index futures is determined based on the difference of the quoted price and the strike price.
Securities:
Fair value of securities measured at fair value through profit or loss or at fair value through other comprehensive income is
determined using market prices available in Bloomberg information system. It is the stock exchange closing price in case of
securities where it is available. In case of securities where stock exchange price is not available, the fair value is the net present
value of the expected future cash flows of the security discounted to the valuation date.
Loans:
Loans are basically measured at amortised cost which equals the amount at which the financial asset is measured at initial
recognition minus the principal repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortisation using the effective interest method of
any difference between that initial amount and the maturity amount and adjusted for any expected credit loss allowance
recorded.
To hedge the fair value changes of certain loans with fixed interest rate the Group entered into interest rate swaps. Such loans
hedged with IRS transactions are measured in the financial statements at amortised cost adjusted for fair value changes
attributable to the hedged risk.
Deposits:
The Group measures its deposits at amortised cost. Certain structured deposits contain embedded derivatives which are
separated from the deposits. The Group measures the embedded derivatives at fair values with its changes recognised in
profit or loss.
The Group involves certain deposits with fixed interest rate in hedge accounting. The fair value of those deposits is determined
by calculating the net present value of expected future cash flows discounted to the reporting date.
Bonds issued:
Non-structured self-issued bonds are measured at amortised cost and thus they are not revalued, except for bonds involved in
hedge accounting. In such cases only interest rate risk is hedged not credit risk.
Fair value of hedge-accounted issued bonds with fixed interest rate is the present value of future cash flows, whereas in case
of structured instruments the Group values the embedded derivative which is separated from the host contract.
Hedge accounting
The Group designated certain derivative instruments held for risk management purposes as hedging instruments designated
in hedge accounting. At inception of the hedge the Group formally documents the relationship between the hedging
instrument(s) and the hedged item(s), the risk management objectives and hedging strategy followed by entering into the
transaction and the method used for measuring hedge effectiveness. The Group evaluates at inception of the hedging
relationship and continuously thereafter whether the hedging instrument will be highly effective in offsetting the fair value
changes of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk over the entire term of the hedging instrument and whether the
actual results fall within the 80-125 percent range.

(7) Basic principles of risk management and hedging
policy
The Group operates an independent, from business functions entirely separated risk management under the supervision of
deputy CEO responsible for risk management. The credit risk assessment and management of clients is a task assigned to the
Credit Risk Department and Retail and SME Risk Management Department, the analysis of market, operational and fraud risks
and compliance with Basel III regulations, capital adequacy calculations, developing credit risk models at the portfolio level is
the task assigned to Integrated Credit Risk Department.
(7.1) Credit Risk Management
Risk and credit assessment of non-retail clients is based on individual analysis and rating, typically with quarterly financial
monitoring and yearly limit review. In retail and micro enterprise financing there is an automated scorecard-based assessment.
Constraints of financing are represented by the desired balance of business and risk factors as determined by the owner and
the management of the Group, the act on financial institutions and other legislations and the framework defined by the
Group’s Credit Policy.
The economic crisis due to coronavirus pandemic did not cause in 2021 a systematic and mass increase in the balance of non-
performing loans, only a few clients became non-performing, amongst them some with relatively higher exposure. Thus, non-
performing rate for corporates was about 2% in 2021, for retail it stabilised at about 5%, remaining below the mid-term
strategic plan.  This healthy level was also facilitated by measures for clearance of non-performing portfolio continuing in 2021
along with the application of standard workout methods. In 2022, the Group still did not experience any systematic portfolio
deterioration in the corporate segment, the NPE ratio remained at the previous low level, moreover further decreased in the
retail segment to a level of around 4%, while in case of the entire banking portfolio, also taking into account credit risk bearing
banking book securities, it was only 1.9%.
This stable/slightly positive trend has been maintained in the first half of 2023, with no meaningful inflows into the non-
performing portfolio and individual sporadic cases are counterbalanced by recoveries and returns, with the NPE ratio across
the entire bank portfolio, taking into account credit risk bearing banking book securities, declining to 1.7% by the end of 2023
In 2024, the Group’s  non-performing loan portfolio increased slightly (by approximately HUF 2.4 billion), however, one of the
main drivers of this additions was the exchange rate change impact  of non-performing corporate loans denominated in
foreign currency, in the amount of approximately +HUF 1.8 billion. The change in non-performing loans net of  exchange rate
changes is negligible overall. In segment view,  the decrease of recent years continued in the retail segment, while in the
corporate segment the newly recognized non-performing status of three corporate groups caused a noticeable increase. No
relevant systematic deterioration is noticeable in any segment. The problematic exposure management and collection efforts
also yielded significant results in 2024, significantly offsetting the emergence of new defaults. The ratio of non-performing
loans at bank level continued to decrease, to 1.3%.
Nevertheless,, current low default probabilities are expected to rise in the future. This is mainly due to the deterioration of the
business environment, supply chain problems, energy crisis, the high inflation environment, the narrowing of the demand and
investment side and negative developments in the real estate market, therefore the Group has carried out strengthened and
intensive monitoring activities related to these dimensions since October 2021 supplemented with portfolio stress testing. The
Group pays particular attention to analysing the expected direct and indirect impacts of increased geopolitical risks.
In retail segment, the portfolio remains stable with low default rates, however the Group is prepared to manage the risks
mainly arising from persistent inflation, changes in the interest rate environment and the slow economic recovery.
Payment moratorium: Participation in the payment moratorium, in accordance with the relevant guidance of EBA, did not
automatically trigger default and payment difficulty in 2020 and thus the Group pays particular attention to identifying
debtors presumably facing payment difficulties also during the term of the moratorium. In relation to clients opting in to
moratorium 2 starting in 2021, then 3 and 4 and in relation to clients opting-in to agricultural moratorium in the second half of
2022, the Group made in case of corporates an extraordinary individual risk review to recognise worsening risk profiles and to
determine defaults and eventually necessary restructuring. As a result of the assessments, it identified a few new restructured
portfolios with a relatively low exposure. The small portfolio that still participated in the moratorium 4 will resume its
repayments in accordance with the relevant new loan schedule at the end of 2023. The Group assessed clients entering into
moratorium 2 also in the retail segment. Clients in case of whom the Group identified financial difficulties, were reclassified to
non-performing status. If the client had no financial difficulties but has been in moratorium for more than 9 months, was
reclassified to Stage 2 and there is a close monitoring in place regarding the problems and financial difficulties of clients opting
out of moratorium 2. The Group repeated the procedures for assessing clients’ financial situation at the start of moratorium 3
and 4 and in justified cases, if information about the clients’ deteriorated financial situation became known since then, it
reclassified them to default, i.e., to Stage 3.

The payment moratorium ended at the end of 2023, but this did not result in a noticeable deterioration in the credit quality of
the portfolio either in 2023, nor in 2024. The Group will monitor and cure the transactions identified as forborne or non-
performing during the credit moratorium period in accordance with the normal recovery rules, provided that the relevant
preconditions are met.
The risk management procedures of the Group operate in accordance with the requirements of Basel III and IFRS9. Base data
necessary to sophisticatedly measure risks are contained in structured form in a modern data warehouse. From 2012 the
capital requirement of the whole banking portfolio (corporate, retail and SME) is quantified using the advanced, internal rating
based (IRB) methodology. During 2017 the municipality portfolio was returned to the standard methodology. The Group started
the same transformation in 2018 regarding financing the top segment of individuals which was completed in the last quarter
of 2019.
Capital requirement of baby loans, private banking and employee loans, as well as in retail segment the capital requirement of
products in crisis guarantee schemes related microsegment is calculated using the standard methodology.
Measuring and reporting risks is performed on a monthly and quarterly basis in compliance with the Group’s and regulator’s
requirements. The Group uses the results of risk models widely in pricing, in determining credit decisions and strategic
directions, thereby ensuring long-term capital adequacy, building up an profitable portfolio that is stable also in respect of
risks and the efficient usage of capital available.
The Group reacted also in its credit policy to the changes caused by coronavirus and the changes caused by the following
energy crisis, rising inflation and interest rate environment: in judging riskiness of industries, besides higher granularity, the
volume/probability of short-term effects and expected mid-term prospect also plays a particular role. Financing activity
targets industries with better conditions and clients with stronger resilience, whereas the more vulnerable part of the portfolio
requires a more cautious approach. In respect of the latter the Group acted with particular care also during determining
impairment and besides revisions of parameters and macro variables of the impairment models carried out taking a
conservative approach, it recognised additional impairment if necessary. In 2024, the most important risks covered by the
additional provisioning model on the corporate side are: real estate market yield risks, refinancing risk induced by the high
interest rate environment, inflation, supply chain squeeze, labour market difficulties and, as a new element, changes in
environmental impacts as additional risk factors. The Group continuously revises and if justified adjusts the adequate level of
related reserves.   
During 2023, the Group developed its methodology for assessing sustainability-related transition risks, primarily environmental
risks, as part of the corporate lending process, which are applied to its corporate portfolio from the first quarter of 2024.
In the retails segment, the measurement of climate change and physical risks related to extreme climate events, as well as the
quantification of the negative effects to mortgage collateral exposed to them, have been developed by the Group and
incorporated into the impairment calculation during 2023.
In the retail segment in March 2020 the Group identified increased risks based on the industry classification of the client’s
employer, building categories of high/medium/low risk based on expected economic downturn and in November 2020 decided
to apply portfolio level management adjustments, so-called overlays to appropriately represent also these risks in impairment
calculation. Furthermore, it recognised additional impairment losses on the riskiest clients participating in the moratorium,
which was revised at each extension of the moratorium. At the end of June 2023, the management corrections affecting the
moratorium were phased out 6 months after the end of the general payment moratorium, as the transactions concerned will
be evaluated in normal monitoring processes and are again subject to days past due calculations, thus not carrying additional
risks. During 2021 and 2022, the Group fully examined changes in the income situation of customers in order to anticipate
potential problems. Due to the impact of energy market risks and increasing liquidity and profitability difficulties, the Group
made portfolio-level management adjustments in both the micro and small enterprise segments several times during 2022. In
2023 it continued to closely monitor the transactions concerned but did not see any reason to phase out the adjustments as a
consequence of persistent inflationary pressures and the economic downturn. As a result of monitoring, the scope of
transactions concerned was redefined and expanded with sole entrepreneurs financed in the retail segment and companies
operating in risky industries and their employees. In 2024, due to the slow but rising unemployment rate and a significantly
slower than expected recovery of economic growth in Hungary, the Group has maintained management overlays for the most
credit risk-sensitive customer groups, which have been fine-tuned to reflect the results of ongoing customer monitoring, due to
risks not covered by the model.
(7.2) Operational Risk Management
All organisational units participate actively in managing and as necessary decreasing the level of operational risk (department,
region, subsidiary). The Group makes significant efforts to improve the risk management organisation and increase risk
awareness, which includes identifying, collecting, assessing, reporting, monitoring and also managing operational risks
threatening to achieve the Group’s business goals. The main tools used to identify risks are collection of loss data, risk
indicators, scenario analyses and risk self-assessments. In course of this work the root causes of all identified operational risk
events are explored and used up in decisions on process improvements.

In order to further strengthen the operational risk management activity, the Group implemented those standards that comply
with the requirements imposed by the advanced measurement method.
The Group continues to efficiently operate the operational risk framework AMA (Advanced Measurement Approach) introduced
in 2016.
(7.3) Market and Liquidity Risk Management
Market and liquidity risk is managed within the Group at a number of levels using advanced methods and infrastructure,
monitoring is performed independently of business functions. Measuring and reporting risks is done on a daily/weekly/monthly
and quarterly basis in compliance with the requirements of the Group and the regulator. Grouping, measuring, managing of
risks and building economic capital is done in the framework of the Group’s ICAAP processes.
Measuring and controlling the risks is effected through complex risk, position, stop loss and VaR limit systems, the methodology
of which is in accordance with the requirements of the parent bank and the regulator. Management of market and liquidity
risks related to banking activity covers the following areas: trading book and banking book interest rate risk; the Group’s
liquidity risk also from going concern and stress point of view; the risk arising from illiquidity of market positions; share price
risk, foreign currency risk, risk inherent in option trading, counterparty risk of OTC derivative transactions. In addition to that,
this function of the Group ensures the independent pricing of various financial instruments in accordance with regulation
required by the parent bank and by IFRS 9. In addition to this, Market Risk function is responsible for controlling the market-
conformity of capital and money market transactions.
(7.4) Fraud Risk Management

pay special attention to all fraud incidents and continuously monitor and evaluate fraud trends. The insights gained from these
activities are consistently integrated into the core or monitoring processes.  Group.
(8) Environmental protection
In 2024, the Group successfully conducted the annual surveillance audit of Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. Environmental Management
System operated according to the ISO 14001:2015 standard, as well as the Energy Management System according to the ISO
50001:2018 standard.
As part of the branch network re-design program, the renewal of mechanical and lighting systems to increase energy
efficiency (LED implementation) continued throughout 2024, with significant energy investments made at a total of 12
locations.
Following the first full year of operation of the solar power plant (HMKE) at the RBSC building in Nyíregyháza, actual production
and usage data show that the system provided 23% of the total electricity demand. This locally generated electricity
prevented the emission of approximately 29.29 tons of CO2 equivalent greenhouse gases into the environment in 2024. The
implementation of solar systems at branches will continue in 2025.
The "greening" of the Group's vehicle fleet did not stop in 2024. Utilizing the "RRF-10.10.1-24 Support for the acquisition of road
electric vehicles for businesses" grant, Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. commissioned a total of 16 Hyundai Kona EV vehicles. To reduce
operating costs, the Group also ensured the establishment of charging facilities for the cars. A total of 13 AC devices with a
maximum charging capacity of 11 kW were installed at eight locations in the country (Debrecen, Gödöllő, Nyíregyháza (2
locations), Kecskemét, Miskolc, Pécs, and Szeged). At the end of January 2025, another 9 EV chargers will be put into operation
at the AGORA headquarters.

is a two-way relationship, the finance sector itself is also affected by environmental and social factors. The two most
significant environmental effects of these times are climate change and biodiversity loss.
In terms of defining environmental, social and governance (ESG) risks, the Group follows EBA’s position and take on a prudential
view when it comes to ESG, elaborating on the risks related to it, i.e. ‘ESG risks materialize when the ESG factors affecting
institutions’ counterparties have a negative impact on the financial performance or solvency of such market players’.  As ESG
refers to environmental, social and governance aspects, the Group identifies the following risks from these aspects. The
detailed information about ESG related topics is disclosed in the separate and consolidated non-financial statement.
Key considerations of ESG risks
Environmental risks
Environmental risks are driven by environmental factors. They should be understood as the financial risks posed by the
institutions’ exposures to counterparties that may both potentially contribute to or be affected by climate change and other
forms of environmental degradation (such as air pollution, water pollution, scarcity of fresh water, land contamination,
biodiversity loss and deforestation).
The Group identifies environmental risks as a result of the following factors:
· Transition-related risks: regulatory, technological and market changes that generate changes in the lending and
other risks arising in the course of banking activities related to climate change, environmental pollution and water
ecological processes.
· Physical risks: acute or chronic environmental events related to climate change, environmental pollution and aquatic
ecological processes that directly endanger the physical integrity and security of assets and/or customers financed
in the course of banking activities, thereby affecting their operability, income-generating capacity and value, as well
as the security of supply chains. Acute physical risks include: floods, storms, droughts, forest fires. Chronic physical
risks include: desertification, sea level rise, air and water quality, permanent deterioration of water volumes, and
persistent increase in temperature.
Social risks
Social risks arise from financial impact generated by misuse of human capital such the rights, well-being and interests of
people and communities.
Governance risks
Governance risks refer to the governance practice of the institutions’ counterparties, including the inclusion of ESG factors in
policies and procedures under the governance of the counterparties.
These risks affect:
· the value of the companies' assets, business model, income-generating capacity, supply chains, investable resources,
regulatory environment;
· household income, expenditure, and the value of their assets;
· and at the macroeconomic level, the value of capital assets, investment needs, productivity and competitiveness
levels, consumer preferences, and the related operation of public finances, interest rates and exchange rates.
These changes may be reflected in the Group's operations as follows:
· credit risk: increased defaults, depreciation of collateral;
· market risk: unexpected changes in asset price movements that are difficult to predict;
· operational risk: vulnerabilities in supply chains, physical operational risks;
· liquidity risk: increased liquidity needs, refinancing risk;
· reputational risks: reputational damage due to inadequate management of the above, risks of being painted ‘green’.
Risk framework
The Group takes these risks into account in its risk frameworks over different time horizons as follows:
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

Consolidated business report
Short term
Individual risks
The Group implicitly takes into account the mentioned risks in the corporate customer base during the annual review and
credit approval process. In 2023, a modification of the lending process was introduced, in the course of which the Group
explicitly analyses the environmental assessment of the customer and the loan objective on the business side ('ESG expert
opinion') and presents the identifiable environmental risk profile ('ESG risk assessment') as a separate part of the risk manager's
position on the risk side.
The Group conducts an increasing number of surveys to its customers in order to obtain access to their sustainability data (in
the form of an electronic questionnaire). In the survey, in addition to estimated and factual data related to GHG emissions, the
Group collects data on water and land use; waste production and environmental pollution characteristics. In addition to short-
term consideration, these data also serve as input for the assessment of medium-term (ESG score) and long-term (climate
scenarios). The Group has taken note of the National Bank of Hungary's recommendation for a customer questionnaire in this
regard and will supplement its own questions with the minimum set of questions recommended, in the future, keeping in mind
the deadlines set.
The Group is making efforts to obtain energy performance data for collaterals. Where the legal environment allows, it is a
mandatory condition to provide the related certificates in the case of new funding, and in the case of existing funding and/or
in the absence of a legal obligation, data collection is carried out on a ‘best effort’ basis within targeted campaigns.
The Group has implemented sector-wide lending policies to define sustainability financing conditions. By the end of 2024, it has
established clear lending policies in the following sectors: tobacco, coal, renewable energy, oil and gas; steel, nuclear energy,
real estate and construction and related raw materials.
Portfolio risks
With the help of scientific methodologies (PCAFs) and estimates, measurements were made regarding the financed GHG
intensity of the corporate customer base, which is published in the separate and consolidated non-financial statement for
2024 as the first time, section ‘E1-6: Gross scopes 1, 2, 3 and total GHG emissions’.
For the corporate segment the additional risk arising from ESG factors was considered using the Special Risk Factors (SRF)
Framework, primarily to account for unmodelled macroeconomic effects but also to cover environmental risks as a temporary
compensations of the model weaknesses. More details are disclosed under note (6.2) Credit risk.
Mid-term
Individual risks
In 2022, the Group introduced an ESG scoring system to assess customers in a standardized way from the environmental
perspective. The model was developed by the parent company (RBI), and its use is uniform for the medium-sized and large
corporate customers. The ESG score has no direct impact on the client's credit rating. The ESG model is based on an industry
base score, supplemented by an additional carbon dioxide emission factor. It is possible to deviate the industry average score
in this way in a positive or negative direction along individual customer specifics. During scoring, the risk analyst evaluates a
number of aspects based on the client's report, data reporting and disclosures, which, supplemented with the data of the
above-mentioned electronic questionnaire (where available), determines a final client score within the industry score limits. The
ESG score can provide guidance on the calibration of customers' expected environmental risks in the medium term, and as
such, it serves as input information for the above-mentioned sustainability assessments related to the lending process.
Portfolio risks
Based on the ESG Score mentioned above, the Group plans to introduce portfolio management tools in the future (sub-
portfolio level measurements, targets and limits), which will be broken down to a local level based on the parent company's
group-level limit management. In 2025, it is expected to introduce a monitoring process for the change in the average ESG
Score of the portfolio above 10%, as well as for the maximum amount of the part of the portfolio with the worst ESG Score.
Regarding the Group’s ambitions towards the 2015 Paris Agreement climate targets, the Group committed to reducing its
financed GHG emissions by 17% by the end of 2030, based on the level measured at the end of 2023. The objective for the
corporate client portfolio has been formulated as an overarching target and was approved by the Board of Directors. In the
coming years, this effort is expected to be further developed and detailed sector-specific goals may be developed.

A long-term Climate Stress Test has been prepared at the level of the RBI Group and its subsidiaries, taking into account the
above-mentioned customer and collateral sustainability data, along the scenarios defined by the EBA. The Group's results have
been completed by the end of 2024, which examined the long-term impact of climate risks on the Group's profitability and
capital adequacy in each scenario. The results show that the Group is not exposed to significant risk overall over the
2030-40-50 time horizon, but there are portfolios that are more vulnerable under certain scenarios.
Reference to the non-financial disclosure
During the reporting period, it was determined that there are no financially material risks from climate change to the regular
risk parameters (market risk, credit risk, operational risk, and liquidity risk). The effects of climate change are only observed
through scenario analyses over longer periods. The effects from climate risks are incorporated into risk measurement and
limitation. Further information on the nature, extent and mitigation of climate change risk are available in the separate and
consolidated non-financial statement’s chapter IRO-1: ‘Process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities’.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty and critical accounting judgments
In the double materiality analysis for the separate and consolidated non-financial statement in 2024, the financial materiality
of sustainability matters was considered in the short, medium, and long-term. In the short term, defined as the reporting
period of the consolidated financial statements, it was assessed that there were no financially material risks from
sustainability matters. As a result, the consolidated financial statements do not include any separate disclosure on
sustainability related uncertainties that materially affect the estimation assumptions. In the long term, which is considered as
ten years onwards, there is also a low chance of a material impact on the credit risk of our customer portfolio due to climate
change transition risk. For more details, please see the separate and consolidated non-financial statement’s chapter IRO-1:
‘Process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities’.
(10) Employment policy
The Group is one of the leading employers in the financial sector: at 2024 the average statistical number was 3,084. It is

skills, on programmes to improve personal, managerial, language and IT skills. At the end of the year, the Group’s employees
spent an average of 5.61 days on training and development events and programs, without e-learning 1.07 days. The continuous
development of employees’ digital skills has a major role in the training and development portfolio, that is supported with the
annual Digital Learning Week event starting from 2021 together with the numerous professional trainings. The Group supports
the colleagues in successful and effective coping with everyday performance challenges and stress situations with community
building and employee well-being programmes.

General information
Basis of preparation
BP-1: General basis for preparation of non-financial statement
In preparing this non-financial statement (‘Non-financial statement’ or ‘Sustainability statement’), Raiffeisen Group. (‘RBHU
Group’ or ‘Group’ or 'Bank') acknowledges certain inherent limitations due to the initial reporting under the Corporate
Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). Consequently, comparisons over time may be constrained as frameworks for
sustainability reporting are continuously evolving. The data collection processes and methodologies for certain sustainability
metrics are still being refined. As such, some data points may be subject to estimation and may not capture all aspects of
performance accurately. Any future changes in structure or operations may impact the reported sustainability metrics. The
sustainability impacts reported herein are influenced by external factors such as regulatory changes, market conditions, and
technological advancements, which may affect the outcomes of our/RBHU Group’s sustainability initiatives.
We are committed to continuously improving our sustainability reporting processes and addressing these limitations in future
reports to provide more comprehensive and reliable information to our stakeholders.
Section 134/J (1) of the Accounting Act stipulates that RBHU Group must prepare its consolidated business report in the
electronic reporting format (XHTML) as specified in Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/815 (ESEF Regulation).
Additionally, the sustainability statements defined by the ESEF taxonomy in the consolidated sustainability statement are
required to be marked up using the XBRL markup language, including the disclosures mandated by Article 8 of Regulation (EU)
2020/852. However, given that the ESEF taxonomy for sustainability statements has not yet been adopted, the Consolidated
sustainability statement does not contain XBRL markups due to the absence of the relevant legislation.
The non-financial statement provides information on Raiffeisen Group. sustainability agendas and activities for the 2024
reporting period. This chapter represents the Bank’s summarized and consolidated sustainability statement according to
Directive (EU) 2022/2464 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 December 2022 amending Regulation (EU) No
537/2014, Directive 2004/109/EC, Directive 2006/43/EC and Directive 2013/34/EU, as regards corporate sustainability reporting,
OJ L 322, 16.12.2022, p. 15–80. (the ‘Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive’ or ‘CSRD’) and local law (pursuant to sections
95/D-95/I of the Hungarian Act C of 2000 on Accounting).
The non-financial statement for 2024 is not published as a stand-alone report, but it is included as part of the 2024 annual
financial report in a separate chapter of the management report. In the management report, RBHU Group describes the direct
and indirect economic, environmental, and social impacts of business activities for the year 2024, which were identified as
material based on the double materiality assessment in accordance with the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/2772
of 31 July 2023 supplementing Directive 2013/34/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards sustainability
reporting standards, OJ L, 2023/2772, 22.12.2023 (the ‘European Sustainability Reporting Standards or ESRS’) In line with the
requirements in ESRS 1, RBHU Group has included the prescribed disclosures pursuant to the EU Taxonomy Regulation (Article 8
of Regulation (EU) 2020/852 and the accompanying delegated acts) as separately identifiable sections in this non-financial
statement.
Based on RBHU Group’s double materiality assessment, the 2024 consolidated non-financial statement is organized according
to the ESRS disclosure framework. In terms of content, RBHU Group reports on its sustainability Strategy, the related impacts,
financial risks, opportunities and how it manages them, as well as considerations of stakeholders’ views. The reported key
figures relate to RBHU Group as a whole. The consolidated non-financial statement addresses all RBHU Group’s stakeholders.
The consolidated non-financial statement is published annually, and for the year 2024, it was released on 27 March 2025.
Deloitte Audit and Consulting Ltd. independently audited the consolidated non-financial statement with limited assurance for
the reporting year 2024. The option of excluding certain information relating to intellectual property, know-how, or the results
of innovations relating to disclosure has not been utilized in this sustainability statement.
The legal norms and recommendations indicated in this report do not necessarily constitute the full regulatory framework
applicable to the Bank; therefore, the Group disclaims any responsibility for  its completeness. The referred regulations  are
provided solely to assist with the interpretation of the text.
The permitted option of omitting the disclosure of impending developments or matters in the course of negotiation has not
been utilized by RBHU Group.
This report has been prepared on a consolidated basis. For details, please refer to the chapter entitled Scope of consolidation.
The scope of consolidation of the consolidated non-financial statement covers upstream and downstream value chains.

Consolidated non-financial statement
The consolidated non-financial statement is presented in million Hungarian Forints. If not stated otherwise, financial
information is presented in Hungarian Forints rounded to the nearest million.
Scope of consolidation
The scope of consolidation of the consolidated non-financial statement is generally the same as for the consolidated financial
statements, which are prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) published by the
International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the international accounting standards adopted by the EU on the basis of
IAS Regulation (EC) 1606/2002, including the applicable interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Standards.
With this said there are same parts in the Report (as listed within this section), where RBHU Group has to deviate from the
general consolidation in order to provide material information, furthermore, provide a transparent and rational picture from its
ESG factors and aspects.
Further information regarding the scope of consolidation can be found in the consolidated financial statements in note (44)
Investments in subsidiaries.
BP-2: Disclosures in relation to specific circumstances
Time horizons
Explanations of time horizons in risk management
For climate and environment-related risk, RBHU Group differentiates between the impact expected in the short, medium and
long term in line with the European Central Bank (ECB) guide on managing climate-related and environmental risks and RBI
Group’s approach. As the planning horizon and average loan tenor are typically shorter than the time horizon in which the
effects of climate-related change and environmental degradation would primarily arise, a forward-looking approach is
considered with a longer-than-usual time horizon:
· Short term (up to three years) – risks mainly associated with transition risks (e.g. changes in legislation and
regulation, changes in technology), i.e. the ability of companies and customers to achieve the transition to a low-
carbon economy. The Bank sees opportunities both from supporting its customers with financing, allowing them to
achieve the transition to a low-carbon economy, as well as potentially increasing the financing directed at industries
that are already green (e.g. renewables) and supporting industries that are contributing to the development of a
circular economy.
· Medium term (more than three years, up to ten years) – risks driven by the paradigm shift in business models, the
emergence of new technologies and continuous updating of regulations, with potentially increasing risks from a
physical perspective (if CO2 reduction is not achieved as targeted). Both physical and transition risks will pose
challenges. Technological risks can arise if innovations in connection with energy efficiency result in old technologies
that RBHU Group has invested in becoming outdated and unprofitable. On the other hand, investments in new
technologies can also fail if they prove to be technically immature. Regulatory risk in connection with stricter
environmental protection laws and regulations can also make existing investments less profitable or even
unprofitable. The withdrawal of many investors from the fossil energy sector, especially coal and carbon-dependent
industries, is an indication that the corresponding assets of the customers or investees can be expected to fall in
value over the medium term (carbon bubble). On the other hand, RBHU Group sees a good opportunity in terms of
investing in new technologies that are more likely to be profitable in the medium term (and divesting from coal).
· Long term (more than ten years) – challenges will come from physical risks, their impact on customers’ business
models and supply chains, as well as on their ability to mitigate and ensure that their repayment capacity is not
severely affected. In the event of an insufficiently orderly climate transition, various long-term scenario analyses
suggest large losses, particularly for carbon-intensive industries.
Sources of estimation and outcome uncertainty
Quantitative information about key value chain activities is often based on averages, assumptions and estimates. RBHU Group
tries to obtain sustainability data directly from its clients. If estimates or quantitative information do not refer to the current
reporting date, they are disclosed in the respective chapters. Where this is not possible external data vendors or sector
averages are used. In most cases several data sources are used. As more sustainability-related information becomes available
and standardized, for example as a result of the adoption of ESRS, the Bank expects to be able to reduce the estimation
uncertainty related to it. The main metrics applied by RBI, and subsequently RBHU Group, using estimates based on indirect
sources, are Scope 3 emissions. This involves the provision of data quality information in alignment with PCAF (2022). The Bank
indicates a high level of measurement uncertainty where metrics or monetary amounts are disclosed.

For corporate customers as well as for project finance transactions, RBI Group has developed an ESG customer score by
measuring the impact of ESG-related risk through individual scores, which are sourced centrally to each NWU, therefore to
RBHU Group as well.
ESG customer score
The ESG customer score is used to:
· Assess the ESG performance of customers;
· Assess the mid- to long term-related risk arising from customers’ ESG behaviour;
· Identify customers with a restrictive, transformative, or supportive ESG performance and draw conclusions for the
underwriting decisions on certain customers.
The ESG score is based on the following components:
· Environmental: measures the impact of transition risk and physical risk; focus areas are to support transition to a
net zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emission, the circular economy and biodiversity; in addition, the Bank is able to
identify those customers that it would like to support further: either on their way to a low-carbon economy, as a
contributor to the circular economy, or due to their low impact/enabling function vis-à-vis the environment (already
green industries). The E score is determined on the basis of both quantitative and qualitative factors. Quantitative
factors that are considered in the E score relate to the following (this list is not exhaustive):
· Customer CO2 emissions (all 3 scopes);
· Energy consumption;
· CO2 reduction targets;
· Water use;
· Share of renewables, etc.
Qualitative factors address the actions that the company has put in place (if any) to tackle its environmental
footprint, including target setting.
· Social: capturing social risks at the customer level and identifying those with a negative impact on society and/or
that contradict the Bank’s internal societal standards and reflect negatively on its reputation. Positive impacts will
also be considered and potential support for such customers may subsequently be envisaged. Compliance with
existing health and human rights regulations has already been considered. A more extensive update of the ESG
scoring model was performed in relation to human rights. RBI Group, and RBHU Group has taken a closer look at the
following areas relating to its customers:
· Social/human rights-related Code of Conduct and supplier screening;
· Minimum safety standards in the work environment;
· Appropriate business behaviour;
· Supporting diversity and educational aspects at the employee level.
The respective social score questions for assessing social risks can be assigned to five major areas related to the
social aspects of a company:
· General information;
· Human capital/human rights;
· Responsible production;
· Product-related aspects;
· Customer-related aspects.
· Governance: governance-related risks at the customer level are measured by scoring questions on transparency,
business ethics, diversity, strategy and risk management, specifically at the top management level.

Consolidated non-financial statement
The ESG customer score is based on individual assessments by internal analysts. Qualitative and quantitative information on E,
S and G criteria is used to evaluate the customer. The ESG score is determined for all corporate credit customers. All customers
in the corporate, project finance and sovereign category have an ESG score. For financial institutions, the ESG score was rolled
out for year-end 2024.
Customer data collection
ESG data availability is crucial for the RBI Group and RBHU Group to develop internal customer ESG scoring, track the reduction
of financed emissions and make informed internal steering decisions. Many customers are not yet subject to a regulatory
reporting regime, which is why ESG data is not available for the entire portfolio. Additionally, data is subject to fluctuations in
quality. Often, estimated values – such as for Scope 3 emissions – are used. To improve the availability and quality of data, RBI
and RBHU Group uses a variety of internal and external ESG data sources:
· Client data
· ESG questionnaire
· Non-financial statements
· 3rd party data vendors
· Public databases
· Deal level data
· Energy Performance Certificates
Despite the poor availability, the highest priority is put on audited/verified client data, the lowest priority is given to estimates. 
RBI has created a customer questionnaire that enables it to gather relevant information on environmental aspects directly
from its customers. Since the Bank already covers social and governance-related questions in the regular rating process, the
focus has been on collecting quantitative data on environmental topics.
The customer questionnaire covers the most important environmental aspects, in particular data on:
· GHG emissions;
· Reduction targets;
· Circular economy;
· Energy consumption;
· Water consumption;
· EU Taxonomy KPIs (Turnover, CAPEX). 
Every year the set of ESG data points is reviewed with the respective stakeholders – new data points are added while no
longer necessary ones get removed from the data collection. Social and governance-related information is gathered from both
annual reports and sustainability statements of the customers.
To further improve data availability and data quality, the Bank employs or plans to employ a mix of measures:
· Engaging with clients and create awareness;
· Will consider implementing detailed KPIs at board level;
· Performing data quality checks;
· Visualizing data collection progress through reports and dashboards.
The remaining topics included in the second pillar can be found in the specific CSRD chapters:
· Green Asset Ratio (see chapter entitled Regulatory disclosure requirement in accordance with Article 8 of the EU
Taxonomy Regulation);
· Financed emissions (see chapter E1-6: Gross scopes 1, 2, 3 and total GHG emissions);

Regulatory disclosure of ESG risks
Since the 2022 financial year, the RBI Group has been required to disclose the Implementing Technical Standards (ITS) on Pillar 3
disclosures on Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) risks as published by EBA, in which RBHU Group was represented on
a consolidated basis. These standards aim to ensure that stakeholders are well informed about the ESG exposures, risks and
strategies of institutions, that they can make informed decisions and exercise market discipline. The aim is to guarantee the
improved consistency, comparability, and meaningfulness of disclosures by institutions.
According to Article 18a of Regulation (EU) 2021/637, Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. shall disclose the information referred to in Article
449a of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 as amended by Regulation (EU) 2024/1623 as of 30 June 2025.

Employees (specific units)
Facility Management
The operation of RBHU Group Facility Management is carried out under the direct supervision of the CPO department, with the
CPO itself being part of the CFO organization. Facility Management is responsible for the daily operational management of
RBHU Group's headquarters and branch network, as well as coordinating its energy management and environmental
management activities. The first area of activity includes ensuring the operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of energy
supply systems, preparing and assisting in the procurement of energy carriers (natural gas, district heating, electricity)
necessary for operation, and participating in the procurement process. The second area of activity includes tasks such as
operating and maintaining the certified Energy Management System (ISO 50001) and the Environmental Management System
(ISO 14001) at RBHU Group's headquarters and branch network and continuously improving energy management and
environmental performance. Furthermore, Facility Management is also responsible for preparing the annual energy
consumption report and for preparing the Scope 1 and 2 calculations, by collecting the relevant data and transferring it to the
colleagues dealing with ESG Cockpit data reporting.
Human Resource Department
HR Function sustainability activities include ensuring fair labor practices, enhancing employee well-being, providing training
and development opportunities, implementing ethical recruitment processes, providing a performance measurement
framework which aligned with broader environmental, social, and governance (ESG) goals.
Internal Controls
The Internal Control System supports the efficient design and effective implementation of the overall control environment to
achieve the organization’s operating, financial reporting, and regulatory compliance objectives. Through identification,
development, documentation, prioritization, and periodic control testing, the Internal Controls System helps to assure the
suitability of the control environment. It is a critical component of bank management; it allows the company to foresee
potential problems and thereby prevent or minimize the risk of unexpected losses or damage to its reputation.
The Internal Control System is taking part in the overall risk assessment procedure. During the operational risk assessment – in
alignment with the Bank's Operational Risk Management Framework – current and future risk exposures are identified and
evaluated. The outcome of the risk assessment reveals the Bank's risk profile, based on which the mitigation measures can be
defined.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
Consolidated non-financial statement

In this regard, the risk assessment serves as a tool for monitoring and improving compliance to ensure the Bank operates
according to compliance principles and regulations.
Certain climate change and environmental risks are defined as compliance relevant risks. The Board of Directors receives a
quarterly summary report from the Bank's Compliance Officer, which includes assessments related to the compliance-relevant
climate change and environmental risks.
In 2024, the Internal Control System undertook a deep dive on the Implementation of the „Green Recommendation” of the
National Bank of Hungary in RBHU Group.
Credit Portfolio Management
Credit Portfolio Management is responsible for portfolio-level credit risk identification and steering. As such, it identifies and
manages portfolio risks by setting and monitoring portfolio limits and KPIs. In hierarchical terms, it is assigned to Financial
Institutions, Country and Portfolio Management, which reports directly to the head of Corporate Credit Risk Management. In
view of the significant and increasing importance of ESG risks and their potential steering impact Corporate Credit Risk
Management has assumed responsibility for steering and implementing ESG-related credit risk management processes,
including customer ESG classification, ESG underwriting aspects and activities, and portfolio ESG level targets steering and
monitoring. For the time being portfolio KPIs are targeting the average ESG score of the corporate credit portfolio. Other ESG
strategical KPIs and ESG risk assessment issues not strongly and directly impacting the creditworthiness of the customers are
managed by the Risk Controlling area.
Corporate Credit Risk Management
Corporate Credit Risk Management is a division assigned to the CRO, responsible for rating analysis, underwriting, contract-
and collateral management, portfolio management and credit risk methodology steering of corporate loan customers. In
terms of ESG and ESG risks, it performs ESG score analysis throughout the credit rating process. The rating analyst evaluates
the ESG score of the customer by considering both qualitative and quantitative facts and information. Qualitative facts include
the sustainability and annual report, policies, and mitigation aspects the corporate has in place, while quantitative aspects
involve quantitative environmental data such as emission data and energy consumption. For the social and governance score,
the analyst assesses the entire picture of the company, including the value chain and internal human resources topics. In
underwriting, underwriters use the ESG score of the customer and the ESG assessment of the industry, in addition to credit
rating aspects, to decide if a loan or limit application can be supported. Collateral management is responsible for assessing
ESG aspects, such as physical risks, during collateral valuation.
Integrated Risk Management
Integrated Risk Management fulfills the Risk Controlling duties for the Bank and reports to the CRO. With respect to ESG risk,
the main responsibilities of Integrated Risk Management are the integration of ESG risk to the ICAAP (e.g. risk assessment and
stress testing), disclosure reporting, HO calculated financed emission and green asset ratio controlling, reporting and
interpretation.
This department also covers several responsibilities related to ESG Risk Data Integration, acting as a coordinator between
head office sourced tasks and other delivery units of RBHU Group. It takes part in coordinating the local ESG data collection
and data sourcing, including the respective tools and platforms for customer data that support regulatory reporting and
rating generation. Additionally, it provides advisory functions on how to implement ESG-induced changes in the process
landscape of RBHU Group and on an ad-hoc basis might take part in client support and advisory on providing ESG-related data,
Green and Social flagging of the financed loans and advances.
Policy frameworks as governance instruments
Policies are a cornerstone of governance and managing impacts, risks and opportunities. The RBHU Group policy framework is
based on different types of internal regulations:
· Management Directives as framework regulations
· Operational Directives and Procedures for covering End-to-End processes
· Product Directives and Accounting Directives
· Standard Operating Procedures for covering detailed processes.
The entire Management is responsible for approving new, updated and cancelled Management Directives. Senior management
is responsible for approving new, updated and cancelled Operational Directives, Procedures, Product Directives, Accounting
Directives and Standard Operating Procedures. The rules stated in the internal policies are mandatory and binding, unless
otherwise stated in the policy itself. The scope of application is defined for each policy by the respective policy owners and

approved by the respective approval authorities. The RBHU Group policy database is the standard information platform for
RBHU Group and the official source for all RBHU Group internal policies. All employees at head office as well as employees in the
various units can access such data at all times. Information on new and updated policies is also sent to the relevant employees
on a regular basis. All policies must be kept up-to-date by the policy authors and owners and therefore updated in intervals as
may be required by applicable law, or if there is no such requirement, at least once every three years after approval.
GOV-2: Information provided to and sustainability matters addressed by the
undertaking’s administrative, management and supervisory bodies
The Management Board and relevant committees are informed on a regular basis about material impacts, risks, and
opportunities, including ad hoc meetings and the Sustainability Council. These updates are provided by senior management,
including the Chief Risk Officer and sustainability officers. This regular flow of information ensures that the Management
Board, the Board of Directors and its committees are well-equipped to oversee and guide the bank’s strategy and operations
regarding sustainability impacts, risks, and opportunities effectively.
The Management Board considers impacts, risks, and opportunities when overseeing the bank’s strategy, decision-making on
major transactions, and risk management processes. This involves an evaluation of how these factors align with and influence
the bank’s long-term strategic goals. When reviewing major transactions and strategic initiatives, the Management Board and
relevant committees assess the potential trade-offs associated with various impacts, risks, and opportunities. They ensure
that decisions are made with a comprehensive understanding. The Management Board and the Board of Directors ensure that
the bank’s strategic decisions and risk management practices also include a sustainability perspective. This approach enables
RBHU Group to address complex challenges while simultaneously seizing opportunities.
In 2024 the Management Board focused on the transition plan, the ESG data collection and regulatory compliance. In this
respect, the Management Board discussed the below-mentioned main topics within the reporting period and took the
necessary decisions.
Within the environmental perspective, the focus within the Management Board was placed on RBHU Group’s financed
emissions target with an update on the climate and environmental business strategy including transition plan. The
Management Board was informed and decided on topics pertaining to ESG risk management, disclosure requirements under
CSRD, the calculation of financed emissions, green volume developments, the development and management of ESG data
collection, and other supervisory and regulatory topics.
With regard to the social perspective, the Management Board discussed the Employee Engagement Survey 2024, received
updates on several policies such as the remuneration policy, policy in relation to the RBHU Group performance management
system and process, company car policy, the internal loan, the compliance function policy, the internal control system policy.
For own workforce topics the agenda included gender pay gap directive implementation roadmap and analysis, performance
bonus and annual salary increase, and role-based allowance incorporation to base salary. Cyber security information was
discussed with regard to the cyber security strategy and roadmap as well as the information and cyber security status of
RBHU Group, align with the local regulatory authority requirements and upcoming EU regulations. For data privacy the related
topics included data breaches and the review of the relevant enforcement practices of the National Authority for Data
Protection and Freedom of Information.
Regarding the governance perspective, the Management Board discussed, e.g., an update of the Code of Conduct, and received
regular compliance updates in the areas of anti-money laundering, financial sanctions, compliance governance and controls,
financial crime management, capital market compliance and safeguarding.  Moreover, changes to the Organizational and
Operational Policy were discussed. In 2024 also FIT & Proper training was conducted to the Management Board.

GOV-4: Statement on due diligence
The financial services sector itself has for years been confronted with many challenges and risks. In order to remain profitable
over the long term, these challenges call for a strong culture of risk management and sustainability. Compliance with

GOV-5: Risk management and internal controls over sustainability reporting
The Sustainability Statement was created in collaboration between units of RBHU Group with Strategy and Company Office as
leader of coordination. With this said data collection was carried out in the respective divisions on an ongoing basis. Draft
wording of the report was discussed by units, while division heads provided professional control over their respective parts.
Once the report is completed, approved by the Management Board, the Board of Directors, and the Audit Committee. Balanced
and comprehensive sustainability reporting is a priority for RBHU Group and its governing bodies, requiring compliance with all
statutory requirements. In this regard RBHU Group aims to tackle the risks arising out or in connection with preparing the
report.
Two main risks were identified in sustainability reporting: (i) the risk of overlooking material topics, leading to incomplete
report; and (ii) the risk of inaccurate data. To mitigate the first risk, a materiality assessment is conducted before report
preparation (see chapter SBM-3: Material impacts, risk and opportunities and their interaction with the strategy and business
model), ensuring all relevant topics are identified and addressed. There is a second risk that incorrect data is input into the
Sustainability Statement. To cover this risk, the content of the report is subject to internal controls and external audit.

Risk framework
Risk management is essential for implementing the ESG strategy and the associated risk control measures. RBI, and
subsequently RBHU Group gears its business model to the high-level strategic goal of creating long-term value in line with the
principles of responsible banking and regulatory requirements. In concrete terms, the Bank identifies, acknowledges, and aligns
the continuous development of its risk management approach with the additional risks originating from ESG.
Firstly, there was a focus on tackling climate and environment-related risks (transition and physical risks), not only via an
assessment at the counterparty level but also by considering the potential impact of those risks stemming from the
materiality assessment and the internal/external climate stress test.  In the meantime, social and governance aspects are also
gaining increasing importance (as further described).
ESG-related risks have been accounted for by enhancing the existing classical four pillars of risk management on multiple
operational levels:
· Identification and definition of ESG risks;
· Measurement, methodologies and analytics;
· Steering approaches, reflecting risks and opportunities;
· Risk processes and governance.
ESG-related topics in the CRO area are addressed via the line organization, ensuring streamlined integration into daily
activities. The goal is to fully comply with regulatory requirements while aligning actions with the Bank’s business model. These
efforts closely adhere to the regulatory requirements outlined by the ECB and the EBA guides on climate-related and
environmental risks.
The risk perspective is enhanced by market and industry expectations, which are equally represented and integrated within the
ESG risk management processes.
When referring to the traditional four pillars of risk management, which are the foundation of the RBI Group risk management
approach, the Bank is currently focusing on addressing, quantifying, managing and further integrating the respective risks, as
well as the opportunities. The progress is measured via the regular monitoring and establishment of internal ESG KPIs. The
main topics reflected within each pillar are highlighted below (different time horizons are considered depending on the topic):
I. Identification & definition of ESG
risks
II. Measurement methodologies &
analytics
III. Steering approaches, reflecting
risks & opportunities
IV. Risk processes and governance
Climate-related and environmental
risks
Use of metrics for measurement of

Climate change
Circularity
Biodiversity
Environmental, Social and
Governance score
Green Asset Ratio
Financed GHG emissions
Climate stress testing

and greenwashing risk in the design

Social risks
Governance risks
The ESG risk framework ensures implementation across the four risk management pillars, offering a high-level overview and
guidance for ongoing and planned risk management activities in the Group. These actions are motivated by the expectations
of internal and external stakeholders. The framework is reviewed on a yearly basis, updated to the latest available trends and
future expectations, and approved by the Management Board.
Identification of ESG risks
Proper identification, definition and understanding of ESG risks are crucial. In the first phase, RBI and subsequently RBHU Group
has particularly focused on climate-related and environmental risks, although social and governmental risks are also gaining
increasing attention in internal risk initiatives, especially with new regulations such as the upcoming new EBA guidelines. An
initial qualitative and expert-driven approach has been further supported by quantitative assessments including impact
analysis, materiality assessments, financed emissions calculations, and climate stress tests.

The definition of ESG risks and the transmission channels to traditional risk types are explained in more detail in the following
chapter. The knowledge gained is transferred across the organization through different training activities (training sessions for
new topics, regular exchange sessions, etc.). ESG risk training has become mandatory in the risk area.
The financed emission calculation has reinforced the above-mentioned definition process and supports the Bank in identifying
the top carbon-intensive industries in its non-retail portfolio; a more detailed description and results are included under the
chapter E1-6: Gross scopes 1, 2, 3 and total GHG emissions.
Topic-specific disclosure requirements
Environmental risk
Climate and environmental risks are driven by environmental factors (E risks). In the outside-in view, these risks should be
understood as the financial risks posed by the Bank’s exposures to counterparties that may potentially contribute to or be
affected by climate change or adaption, and other forms of environmental degradation (such as air pollution, water pollution,
scarcity of fresh water, land contamination, biodiversity loss and deforestation). Related to this, the Bank and its customers
have to comply with additional political and social demands, otherwise the financed portfolio may face additional risks relating
to physical damage or transition.
As such, E risks can result in additional capital requirements, expenditures and potential losses of revenue, which may lead to a
deterioration in the respective credit standing and therefore have an adverse effect on the business, financial position and
results of RBHU Group’s operations. Further information on the different climate-related risks, and their transmission channels
to the traditional risk types (market, liquidity, credit and operational risks) can be found in the section on the assessment of the
materiality of climate and environment-related risks.
Social and governance risk
In alignment with RBI Group approach, these risks are addressed in RBHU Group’s internal risk framework, building on the
existing structure and internal information. The Bank is therefore continuously updating and refining its approach to enhance
its positive impact and align itself with the latest industry standards:
· Social risks arise from the financial impact generated by the misuse of human capital, e.g. regarding the rights, well-
being and interests of people and communities. This could refer to working conditions, health and safety, employee
relations and diversity, employee training, inclusiveness, equality or community programs. Regarding all E, S and G-
related topics, the framework also considers the country-specific situation as well as the legal background. For
example, countries with low (or high) standards in social aspects such as human rights have a lower (or higher) score.
This also impacts the ESG score of the customer: identical corporates with different country risk may have different
ESG scores due to varying country scores
· Governance risks refer to the governance practices of the Bank’s counterparties, including the inclusion of ESG
factors in policies and procedures under the governance of the counterparties. This may include, but is not limited to,
executive pay, board diversity and structure, shareholder rights, bribery and corruption, compliance, ethical
standards (e.g. data ethics), fair tax strategy, etc.
Risk processes and governance
Steering approaches, reflecting risk and opportunities
The Management Board is the most senior decision-making body for ESG-related strategies, policies and commitments. The
Management Board is supported in its ESG decisions by the cross-functional Sustainability Council.
From a risk management and supervision perspective, environmental, social and governance (ESG) risks are viewed as cross-
dimensional risks that affect all areas of risk management. As such, the ESG risks are currently under incorporation into the
Bank’s risk strategy as driver of management of existing risk types. The materiality assessment described in separate chapter
forms the basis for implementation in the ICAAP framework and is expected to be further refined over the coming years as
methodologies are further developed and common practices evolve. As such, each relevant risk department (market,
operational, liquidity and credit risk) is responsible for measuring environmentally-driven risk in accordance to the materiality
levels. The risk strategy and risk regulations and processes are continuously updated, refined and adjusted to the current
standards.
The ESG risk management dimension is currently in the course of being incorporated into the Bank’s Risk Strategy, however
from pure ESG perspective there is no single indicator yet as of now on which a risk capacity/ tolerance framework can be
robustly built.
The main tools for managing and supervising environment-related risks as of year-end 2024 are:

Strategy related to sustainability
SBM-1: Strategy, business model and value chain
Our understanding of sustainability
For over 130 years, the RBI Group has combined financial success with socially responsible actions.
The RBI Group understands sustainability to mean responsible corporate activities for a long-term, economically positive result in
consideration of key societal and environmental aspects. This understanding is deeply rooted in Raiffeisen’s fundamental values (see
also chapter G1-1: Corporate culture).
The RBI Group combines financial success with social responsibility by anchoring sustainability as a fixed component of its business
and by practicing sustainability as an integral leadership and management responsibility, in addition to taking key sustainability
aspects into consideration in its business activities.
The RBI Group is therefore committed to aligning the management structures and processes with this attitude. In the three strategic
sustainability areas of responsibility – responsible banker, fair partner, and engaged citizen – which are closely linked to the business
activities, RBI Group endeavors to professionally and effectively apply the values and competences to fostering sustainable
development both in RBI Group and in society.
RBHU Group’s sustainability strategy approach
The strategy and mission of RBHU Group is embedded in the strategy of RBI Group and backed by the technical expertise and
knowledge hub of Raiffeisen Bank International. Sustainability is a fundamental principle for the Bank and a measure of corporate
success. The Bank considers ESG factors within its business strategy. RBHU Group provides several sustainable financial and
investment products, while daily operations are executed with the approach of energy efficiency and environmental consciousness.
Core action areas of our sustainability strategy
The sustainability strategy of the Bank is based on four main pillars, (i) analyses and assessment of our environment, tracking
performance; (ii) risk analysis and management; (ii) the portfolio strategies and business approach introduced for the financing
activities and (iv) target setting and executing.
Strategic analysis
The Bank currently performs two annual comprehensive analysis, the first one is the Climate Horizon Analysis and the second one is
the GAP Analysis.
The climate horizon analysis is an analysis tend to identify relevant climate vulnerabilities and opportunities of the Bank on short
(0-3 years), mid (4-10 years) and long term (10 years <). Vulnerability describes the exposures/potential adverse effects on companies
due to the physical and transition risks, opportunities on the other hands mean the potential to grow within the changing
environment.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

Consolidated non-financial statement
RBHU Group also performs a periodical GAP analysis and action plan to address the Green Recommendations of ECB/NBH. The
purpose of the assessment is to review compliance of RBHU Group with the Green Recommendations based on 4 section (business
model and strategy, risk management, lending, internal governance and other sustainability matters) and present ongoing
processes in order to comply with the recommendations and identify gaps to handle.
Risk analysis and management
Main focus points of risk analysis and management are: (i) define and identify ESG risks; (ii) identification of vulnerable industries; (iii)
portfolio monitoring; (iv) ESG risk and business model assessment in relation to the lending processes; (v) customer risk analysis
through ESG rating and (iv) collateral valuation.
For detailed descriptions in relation to the risk analysis and management functions please see:
· GOV-1: The role of the administrative, management and supervisory bodies
· GOV-5: Risk management and internal controls over sustainability reporting
· IRO-1: Process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities
· ESRS 2 SBM-3: Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model; and
· E1-2: Policies related to climate change mitigation and adaptation.
RBHU Group climate and environmental business strategy
The RBI Group has formulated a Climate & Environment Business Strategy that integrates climate & environment risk into major
strategic processes aiming to:
· make balance sheet Paris Agreement climate target fit
· support customer in their climate and environmental transition; and
· drive sustainable finance transformation based on up to date ESG expertise and governance.
The business model of the RBHU Group is in line with the strategic goals of RBI represented above.
The Bank has initiated portfolio strategies within the lending activities tailored in line with the economic transition, namely (i)
restrictive; (ii) transformative and (iii) supportive approach:
· Supportive: support companies and projects that are “best-in-class” already
· Transformative: (1) transformative: in implementation – support companies and projects on their way to reduced carbon
emission or Net-zero nature impact or in their efforts to provide positive environmental & social impact; (2)
transformative: in planning – support companies and projects to plan and begin their way to reduced carbon emission or
Net-zero nature impact or in their efforts to provide positive environmental and social impact
· Restrictive: dispreferred of companies and projects, also called negative screening. Engagement into lending to such
entities is discouraged by the underwriting policy, unless the partner shows material, measurable and swift commitment
for transition towards the transformative category expectations.
Strategic target setting
RBI Group assesses its environmental footprint, and other material impacts of the RBI Group on the environment and biosphere.
Within these activities the RBI Group evaluates and assesses how it will operate in a carbon neutral economy and consequently plans
its GHG reduction targets. Fundamentally the targets are divided into own operation and financed emission activities and reflecting
the transition strategy of the RBI Group and also the RBHU Group.
As for the financed emission, the Bank intends to reduce its GHG emission, arising out from the financing of non-financial
corporations, by 17.11 % by 2030 compared to the level measured in 2023.
At the RBHU Group level, local Scope 1 and 2 targets have not been defined; thus, RBHU Group generally aligns to the RBI Group-level
target.
For detailed descriptions in relation to the emission numbers and detailed pathway please see:
· E1-1: Transition plan for climate change mitigation; and

ESG factors and relations within the business model and segment level
Corporate Business
RBHU Group offers support via various sustainable financing options aligned with the business model and sustainability strategy of
its customers. These sustainable financing options cover a wide range of financial instruments (bonds, project loans, syndicated
loans, etc.) characterized by their linkage to sustainable activities.
RBHU Group’s sustainable finance experts support corporate customers in their transformation by identifying and defining
sustainable transactions. The basis for this assessment of financial products and services includes both the regulatory framework of
the EU and the international market standards such as those of the Loan Market Association and the International Capital Market
Association. RBHU Group supports its customers in verifying the suitability of various projects and activities with regard to EU
Taxonomy compliance and RBI’s internal definitions of green, social or sustainable transactions.
Sustainable financial products can be tailored to the individual customers so that they have a positive impact in terms of ESG
criteria. RBHU Group supports customers in all industries – in critical sectors such as oil and gas, and through to non-critical sectors
such as renewable energy – and in doing so, addresses each individual customer’s respective challenges and opportunities. With all
sustainable financing transactions, RBHU Group’s sustainable finance experts always endeavor to provide corporate and
institutional customers with a clear understanding of market standards and requirements, as well as best practices.
Providing sustainable financing generates added value for our customers and a wide range of activities for society that are suited to
sustainable financing. We describe financing as being sustainable when it has a long-term positive impact on the environment and
climate and/or on societal and social issues, and when it supports the attainment of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
More specifically, the definition of a sustainable transaction is based on the EU Taxonomy Regulation and on RBHU Group’s ESG
Rulebook (basis: RBI’s ESG Rulebook) definition for green and social. The eligibility criteria of the listed frameworks differ in terms of
complexity and precision. Currently, our corporate sustainable finance activities mainly focusing on renewable energy, electrification
and sustainable real estate finance projects.
The Sustainability Bond Framework of RBHU Group connects liability and asset side by allocating funds collected through green
bonds issuance to the sustainable finance activities of large corporate segment. Both asset and liability side gained achievements
during recent years. RBHU Group received the award for being the „Green Bank of the Year 2022” and „Green Bank of the Year 2024”
from the Central Bank of Hungary based on its sustainable finance activities and outstanding amounts within corporate segment,
affirming the efforts made towards the support of transition of the real economy. While in funding side 300 mn EUR Senior Preferred
green MREL eligible bond has been issued to international investors with a demand showing substantial oversubscription in 2024.
For further information about the Sustainability Bond Framework please see: https://www.raiffeisen.hu/web/english/investor-
For detailed information about the corporate segment please see the respective parts of this Sustainability Statement.
Retail Business
RBHU Group provides services to around 450.000 retail and private banking customers, offering a broad product range (e.g. account
packages, payment services, personal loan, mortgage loans and investment products). In Hungary, RBHU Group provides investment
advisory and asset management services to premium and private customers.  When talking about consumers and end-users in RBHU
Group’s business, RBHU Group means private individuals who use RBHU Group’s products and services for personal use, either for
themselves or for others, and not for professional purposes, including private individuals who will potentially become customers of
RBHU Group. RBHU Group has customers of all ages and from all types of socio-economic background. RBHU Group follows a
segment-based approach and covers mass-market retail clients.
RBHU Group aims to further increase new green loan sales to private individuals and small-business customers, and therefore advise
our customers on the possibility of green mortgage loans secured by real estate and are made available exclusively to finance or
refinance, in whole or in part, new and/or existing transactions with a specific use of proceeds as defined by the framework for
Green and Social Loans included in the local Credit Policies.
For detailed information about the retail segment please see E1-4: Targets related to climate change mitigation and adaptation of
this Sustainability Statement.
Significant geographical markets and total revenue
While RBHU Group is a subsidiary of the RBI Group, its main operation covers solely the territory of Hungary, in consequence the
geographical market of RBHU Group is Hungary as whole.
The number of employees at reporting date can be found under S1-6: Characteristics of the undertaking’s employees. section of the
Sustainability Statement.

Consolidated non-financial statement
Raiffeisen Bank is a financial institution that provides services to companies across various sectors in the real economy, with a
particular focus on the energy, real estate, and agriculture sector. In relation to the EU taxonomy, the bank also examines these
sectors due to its exposure.
The total revenue of RBHU Group covering the financial year of 2024 can be found under (3.2) Profit or loss of the consolidated
financial statements.
Definition of value chain
According to ESRS, it is necessary to report information related to an undertaking’s own operations and upstream and downstream
value chain, including its products and services, its business relationships and its supply chain. RBHU Group’s business model is to
provide banking services to corporate and retail customers in Hungary. Although deposit and lending activities are the focus of
activity, RBHU Group also offers leasing, asset management, and investment banking services. RBHU Group has defined its value
chain below.
Description of the upstream value chain
The upstream value chain consists of the financial liabilities that are borrowed as deposits or issued as bonds or equity. These
products are a source of financing for RBHU Group, which is used to fund the activities of customers. In general, this does not lead to
positive or negative sustainability outcomes in the value chain. However, sustainability related funding is also part of the upstream
value chain, which aims to finance specific projects or outcomes (for further information please see in SBM-1 Corporate section). The
funding impact of sustainability matters on RBHU Group’s is taken into account. Money invested by customers in investment and
pensions funds is not considered part of the upstream value chain. The suppliers of goods and services that RBHU Group purchases
in order to carry out operating activities are considered to be a further part of the upstream value chain.
Description of the downstream value chain
The main downstream key value chain consists of the on-balance sheet financial assets, which are lent or leased to customers and
financial investment activities of RBHU Group. These products are a source of financing for customers and investees in their
activities, leading positive or negative sustainability outcomes. Here the key value chain relates to lending to corporate customers,
this value chain has the greatest impact materiality. An additional key sustainability-related value chain relates to lending to retail
customers. Lending to sovereigns, central banks and financial institutions, which is predominantly undertaken for liquidity purposes,
is not considered a key sustainability-related value chain. Nevertheless, where market convention has been established to include
additional information on lending to sovereigns and financial institutions, information is provided.
A second downstream key value chain consists of assets under management in investment. These products are a source of
financing for investees in their activities, leading to positive or negative sustainability outcomes. Here only investment activity where
RBHU Group employees have direct operational control of the investment process is considered to be part of the value chain. This
means third party funds, where there is no direct operational control of the investment process and the possibility to look-through
to the underlying assets is limited, are not considered part of the value chain.
Downstream value chain activity, which RBHU Group does not consider as being material, is not covered. This activity includes:
· Cash and cash equivalents, most of which is held at central banks or in other financial institutions
· Exposure from trading assets and liabilities are not considered due to their short-term nature. However, sustainability risk
for market risk is considered as part of own operations in ESRS E1: Climate change
· Non-consolidated associates are considered for the purposes of Scope 3 Category 15 financed emissions to the extent
that in-house data is available. However, they are not considered for other aspects of the value chain
· Non-consolidated investees are considered for the purposes of Scope 3 Category 15 financed emissions to the extent that
in-house data is available. However, they are not considered for other aspects of the value chain
· Investment property is not included due to the non-core nature of the business. Nevertheless, own-use property and its
impact on climate change is considered as part of the in-house ecology section in ESRS E1: Climate change.
Value chain information is currently provided to the extent that RBHU Group has ready access to the information. In the future RBHU
Group expects to have access to more information as the CSRD develops.

aligned with the specific topics and issues at hand. Each unit within RBHU Group, including Strategy, Business, Risk, Legal, and
Compliance, is responsible for managing its own stakeholder interactions, tailored to the context of specific stakeholder groups.
Purpose of stakeholder engagement

Inclusion of stakeholders in due diligence and materiality assessment
Within the assessment of double materiality first version of the documentation was carried out by RBI backed by their external
stakeholders and experts. RBHU Group and other NWUs received this RBI Group level document and assessed and finetuned it based
on local specifics. For the double materiality assessment, internal topic experts (stakeholders) assessed direct impacts, identifying
relevant impacts, risk and opportunities within their areas of expertise. RBHU Group also participates in sectoral discussions in order
to align reporting obligations on national level.
The selection of material topics is guided by the regulatory requirements of the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS).
This approach ensures RBHU Group strategy reflects the expectations of key stakeholders, including supervisory authorities and
supranational organizations.
Effect on the overall ESG strategy
RBHU Group has established a Sustainability Council consisting of the MAN and internal experts, which plays a critical role in
stakeholder dialogue and sustainability management. The Sustainability Council guides RBHU Group’s strategic direction concerning
economic, environmental and social issues, ensuring stakeholder concerns are reflected within the organization.
Next steps

their interests are adequately considered. This is expected to increase trust and transparency.
In addition to the above regular reviews of internal ESG policies, ensure continuous improvement and alignment with best practices.
SBM-3: Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and
business model
As part of an internationally active banking group, RBHU Group faces specific challenges in its efforts to realize its sustainability
vision. These arise from the economic, social and environmental impacts of RBHU Group’s business activities as well as from the
external conditions within which it operates. RBHU Group works within a global environment that is characterized by numerous
economic, geopolitical and environmental risks. In the sustainability statement, it addresses the sustainability topics that have been
identified within RBHU Group as material, that reflect the expectations of its stakeholders, and that represented the focus of its

engagement and people, including human rights. The sustainability topics elaborated in the sustainability statement are the result
of the double materiality assessment.
In 2024, RBHU Group performed a double materiality assessment based on the principles and requirements formulated in the ESRS.
For an overview of how the assessment was performed, please refer to the chapter IRO-1: Process to identify and assess material
impacts, risks and opportunities. The assessment showed the topics through which RBHU Group has been or is connected to a
material impact the environment or on people (impact materiality) and the topics that now, or may in the future, have a material
financial effect on RBHU Group (financial materiality).
RBHU Group plans to assess, consider and cover materially important ESRS items within the formulation of the annual strategy
update for 2025.

behavior ensures that our staff feel valued and respected, which enhances their
overall well-being and job satisfaction. Moreover, it encourages a positive
organizational culture that promotes accountability and transparency.
A robust integrity framework also empowers employees to make ethical decisions,
contributing to their professional growth and development. This, in turn, positively
impacts society by promoting fair business practices and reducing the likelihood of
unethical conduct that could harm communities. Conversely, a weak culture of
integrity can lead to internal instability, lower employee morale, and increased
incidences of unethical behavior, which not only jeopardizes our internal environment
but also has broader negative implications for societal trust and ethical standards

IRO-1: Process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities
In the sustainability statement, RBHU Group addresses the sustainability topics that have been identified within RBHU Group as
material, that reflect the expectations of the stakeholders, and that represented the focus of its engagement in the past year.
The double materiality assessment process is used to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities (IROs) based on
the principle of double materiality, serving as the basis of the entire sustainability statement. This assessment ensures that the
sustainability statement covers all topics and sub-topics with the greatest current or potential positive and negative impacts
related to RBHU Group’s business activities, products, and services. This includes impacts directly attributable to RBHU Group within
its operations, as well as those which it contributes through business relationship with other entities. Additionally, the risk and
opportunities relevant to RBHU Group in connection with these matters, or those that arise from its business activities or
relationships, are also presented.
The first double materiality assessment in accordance with ESRS was carried out and was conducted with the help of workshops
and internal discussions in the period from December 2023 to November 2024. The double materiality assessment process was
performed for own operations and the value chain. The process was used to separate the effects RBHU Group has through its own
operations from the effects it has through its value chain.
Within the assessment of double materiality first version of the documentation was carried out by RBI backed by their external
stakeholders and experts. RBHU Group and other NWUs received this RBI Group level document and assessed and fine-tuned it based
on local specifics. For the double materiality assessment, internal topic experts (stakeholders) assessed direct impacts, identifying
relevant impacts, risk and opportunities within their areas of expertise. RBHU Group also participates in sectoral discussions in order
to align reporting obligations on national level.
Identification of ESRS touchpoints
Own operations
The initial assessment for own operations was based on the RBI Group documentation with topics previously assessed and identified
by RBI and external experts. This included topics and the relevant sub-topics, as well sub-sub-topics. In individual workshops and
discussions, all internal stakeholders were familiarized with ESRS and received an introduction to the double materiality assessment.
The goal was to enable the experts to review the RBI Group documentation and to adapt them to their views, based on their expert
opinion. The RBI Group documentation was presented, reviewed, and adapted by the internal stakeholders of RBHU Group. The RBI
Group documentation was fine-tuned then by local specifics with a reasoning for each deviation.
The internal stakeholders with ESG expertise from various departments are responsible for the topics mentioned below and
conducted the materiality analysis:
· Accounting Department
· Compliance Department
· Security Department
· Human Resource Department
· In-house Ecology/Facility Management
· Legal Department
· Marketing Department
· Procurement/Supply Chain Management.
The main responsibility for the double materiality assessment lay with the CSRD implementation project teams, which is a
cooperation of finance and sustainability experts.
Assessment method
For actual negative and positive impacts, materiality was based on the severity of the impact, while for potential impacts it was
based on the severity and likelihood of the impact. For factors such as scale, scope and irremediability were used for the severity of
the impact and a four-step scale was used, from one (very low) to four (high). The likelihood of occurrence of a sustainable topic was
assessed for risks, opportunities, and potential impact using a four-step scale, from one (very unlikely) to four (likely). The same
likelihood scale was used for the probability of occurrence for financial materiality and impact materiality. For potential impacts on
human rights, the assessment was conducted in the same manner as for actual impacts, in accordance with ESRS 1 paragraph 48.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
26
Consolidated non-financial statement
The likelihood was overridden by the potential impact on human rights, and if human rights were relevant to the topic, they were
automatically considered likely for calculation purposes.
For the financial risks and opportunities assessment, a sustainability matter is considered material from a financial perspective if it
triggers or is expected to trigger significant financial effects on the undertaking. This determination used factors such as the
continuation of resource use, dependence on relationships, and other elements that influence the future value of the company. For
risks and opportunities deemed relevant to RBHU Group, the time horizon for potential occurrences was defined before analyzing
how these risks and opportunities could impact the factors used. Additionally, the likelihood was assessed.
An overall threshold of 0.66 was set for the direct impact materiality and direct financial materiality (risk and opportunities), derived
from the assessment of the above criteria. If the impact materiality and/or financial materiality of an ESRS topic exceeded this
threshold, it was considered material for RBHU Group and was included in the consolidated non-financial statement for 2024.
During the workshops and discussions, the identified ESRS topics were subsequently evaluated for their positive and negative
effects, and for each impact, additionally assessed for potential and actual impacts. Actual impacts are those that have already
occurred, while potential impacts are those that could occur in the future, initially, the origin of the impact (whether directly or
indirectly caused by RBHU Group), the location (where the expected impact could occur), and the time horizon in which the impacts
are likely to occur were assessed. Subsequently, a quantitative evaluation was conducted to determine the extent.
Value chain
Impact materiality assessment
The portfolio’s impact materiality assessment was conducted using the United Nations Environment Programme – Finance Initiative
(UNEP FI) Impact Analysis Tool. This tool, developed in collaboration with signatories of the Principles for Responsible Banking (PRB)
and UNEP FI member banks, provides a framework for assessing the impacts associated with financial portfolios. By using this
methodology, RBI evaluates the indirect impacts of its portfolio on sustainability priorities aligned with the European Sustainability
Reporting Standards (ESRS).
For the analysis, RBHU Group’s portfolio as of 31 December 2023 was segmented by business line – non retail and retail – and
described in terms of industry sectors (NACE), country of operation, exposure at default (EAD), and booking country.
To assess how these portfolio elements impact sustainability topics, UNEP FI mapping is used to connect sector and geographic
data to ESRS sub-topics. The sector-impact map highlights how industries influence specific impact areas – positively and
negatively, directly or indirectly – and these impact areas are then mapped to ESRS sub-topics to connect portfolio impacts to ESRS
standards. Adding country-specific data gives the analysis a geographic layer, helping to prioritize sustainability topics based on
regional importance. While the ESRS standards require reflection on both actual and potential impacts, which could align with UNEP
FI’s direct and indirect impacts, RBHU Group’s analysis focuses solely on direct impacts. This decision provides a clearer view of the
immediate effects of the portfolio, while the overall analysis remains within the ESRS indirect realm from RBHU Group’s perspective.
The impact calculation applies three measures, scale, scope and irremediability. Scale quantifies the monetary exposure (EAD) of
sectors that directly affect ESRS sub-topics through UNEP FI impact areas. Scope adjusts scale by factoring in geographic relevance,
reflecting country-specific needs that influence the priority of each topic. Irremediability then provides a qualitative assessment of
the reversibility or permanence of these impacts, with higher scores indicating sectors or regions where impacts are challenging to
mitigate.
These three measures – scale, scope and irremediability – combine to create an overall impact score for each ESRS sub-topic. This
score serves as the basis for the double materiality analysis, following ESRS guidelines. A materiality threshold of two-thirds (66.7 per
cent) is applied to determine which ESRS topics are considered material and should be prioritized. The quantitative score can also be
adjusted using qualitative inputs such as stakeholder feedback or contextual insights, ensuring a more holistic assessment of the
portfolio’s indirect impacts.
Financial materiality assessment
According to ESRS, it is necessary to report information related to an undertaking’s own operations and its upstream and
downstream value chain, including its products and services, its business relationships, and its supply chain. The financial materiality
of risk is assessed based on combination of the likelihood of occurrence and the potential magnitude of the financial effects. For the
likelihood of occurrence, factors such as current and future legislation as well as reputational considerations are considered. For the
purpose of the CSRD, RBHU Group uses the income dependency of RBHU Group’s downstream value chain to assess the magnitude of
the financial materiality of the topical standards (and sub-topics).
When the income dependency of a topical standard is greater than 10 per cent and it is likely there will be an impact, this provides
confirmation of financial materiality. The income dependency ratio is defined as income from high-impact lending/investing divided
by operating income and add-back interest expense and fee expense.
The income from high-impact lending/investing currently consists of the following positions:
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
Consolidated non-financial statement
27
· Interest income from non-financial corporations
· Interest income from retail mortgage loans
· Fee and commission income from non-financial corporations
· Fee and commission income from investment funds.
Financial materiality in the value chain is given when income from topical sectors is greater than 10 perc cent and it is likely that
there will an impact. Currently, there is no perceived financial materiality in the value chain of RBHU Group.
Validation of double materiality assessment
The model covering direct double materiality perspective is covered by the relevant guidance of EFRAG, and in line with the
requirements and recommendation of the aforementioned guideline. The indirect double materiality models are based on
international standards and good practiced used by the sector. Several discussions and workshops were held between RBI and other
NWUs (including RBHU Group) in relation to the methodology and results of double materiality assessment. In addition to the above,
the Bank discussed the approach, the methodology and results with the internal experts and stakeholders.
The process and results of the double materiality assessment were presented and recognized by the Management on 24th of March
2025. The summary of the outcome of the double materiality assessment is presented in the chapter SBM-3: Material impacts, risks
and opportunities and their interaction with the strategy and business model.

Climate change
Own operations
Impact materiality assessment
In terms of RBHU Group’s own operations, the double materiality principle entails understanding and taking into account the impact
of a company’s own activities on the environment and the implications of environmental issues for the respective company.
At RBHU Group, the key materiality indicator is the volume of absolute greenhouse gas emissions (scope 1-3) that are caused by
various activities, such as energy consumption and business trips. These emissions have an adverse impact on the climate and are
therefore considered, even though the main focus rests on RBHU Group’s financed emissions due to their much larger weight. As the
changes in the world’s climate have far-reaching consequences, which extend beyond national borders, there is no regional
limitation of effects in the context of the inside-out approach. Although the impact of greenhouse gas emissions on the climate is
entirely negative, aspects such as the use of renewable energy and the promotion of energy efficiency can mitigate the adverse
effects.
Financial materiality assessment
The risks of operational activities are closely related to the environmental concerns set out to be managed in the CSRD. The biggest
risk to the economy, society and the environment is the unwillingness of companies to counteract climate change. This leads to
increased global warming with the known negative impacts. In addition to external environmental risk, RBHU Group and its operating
locations are subject to physical, regulatory and reputational risks (outside-in perspective). In the area of physical risks, for example,
natural disasters could result in damage to property. These risks are minimized by selecting the right locations and ensuring suitable
property insurance (adaptation strategy).
They are managed on the cost side by continuously observing the internal and external environment and by consulting specialists in
controlling the respective measures. Risks are classified as material when they endanger the achievement of RBHU Group’s medium
to long-term climate targets – particularly with regard to energy consumption – or when stakeholders classify them as material for
RBHU Group. The measures set out are currently heavily focused on the area of energy, with examples including targeted increases
in energy efficiency and structural alterations to building shells.
The physical risks of climate change, such as greater and more frequent temperature fluctuations, often result in higher operating
costs, e.g. due to the increased need for cooling as the number of days with extreme heat increases. Risk management is based on a
combined bottom-up and top-down approach in which all employees also pay a significant role in risk minimization in their
respective working area.
RBHU Group is contributing to meeting the goals of the UN climate change conference in Paris (Conference of the Parties 21) by
working to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, as well as promoting the renewable energy sector of the economy.

Consistent steering through KPIs in areas such as business travel and energy consumption represents a particular opportunity for
RBHU Group with regards to the environmental impact of its own operations. Furthermore, reputational risks are minimized and
resilience in the face of the consequences of climate change is increased. New collaborations in research and development and
investment in energy efficiency measures can also play a role in promoting the transformation to a sustainable economy.
Value chain
Assessment of the materiality of climate and environment-related risk
To complement the impact analysis performed using the UNEP FI Portfolio Impact Analysis Tool (see chapter Impact materiality
assessment and in line with the ECB Guide on climate-related and environmental risks (expectations 7.2 and 7.31), an extended
annual risk assessment for climate and environmental risk drivers has been implemented within RBI’s risk framework. While the UNEP
FI portfolio impact analysis also considers the inside-out perspective, the materiality assessment described below focuses on the
outside-in view, i.e., how the climate and environmental risks affect RBHU Group’s risk profile. The inside-out view, on the other hand,
would additionally address how RBI’s activities affect the outside world (including the financed emission calculation, as well as how
science-based targets measure and mitigate the inside-out impact).
The additional climate and environmental risk assessment process has been established to identify the severity of environmental
risk from applicable transmission channels within the current portfolio and over different time horizons. This multiple dimensional
approach considers:
· Different individual climate and environmental risk drivers (physical risk, transition risk, other environmental risks);
· The impact of each climate and environmental risk driver through risk-dependent transmission channels, assessed for
each risk type (credit, market, operational and liquidity risk);
· The impact under different transition risk scenarios (orderly – specifically Net Zero 2050).
Individual climate and environmental risk drivers
Transition risk
With transition risk being defined as the risks related to the process of adjustment towards a low-carbon economy, the transition
risk drivers represent climate-related changes that could generate, increase or reduce transition risks. They include changes in public
sector (generally government) policies, legislation and regulation, changes in technology, and changes in market and customer
sentiment, each of which has the potential to generate, accelerate, slow or disrupt the transition towards a low-carbon economy.
Looking one step further, the transmission channels are the causal chains that explain how climate risk drivers give rise to financial
risks that impact banks directly or indirectly through their counterparties, the assets they hold, and the economy in which they
operate.
The Bank has identified transmission channels in line with the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) paper on climate-
related risk drivers and their transmission channels.
Credit risk
Credit risk increases if climate risk drivers reduce borrowers’ ability to repay and service debt (income effect) or banks’ ability to fully
recover the value of a loan in the event of default (wealth effect). For example, in the non-retail portfolio, macroeconomic and
climate-related risk factors (e.g. carbon tax, emission trading system (ETS) expenses) are used to make sector-specific projections on
production and operating costs which are distributed to the single borrower’s financial figures (e.g. operating revenues, operating
costs such as costs of goods sold and labor costs, additional costs relating to carbon tax, costs for green transitions, etc.). Finally,
the projected financial positions are used to simulate the projection of the probability of default in RBI’s rating models for a
materiality assessment, under the different transition scenarios described above.
Market risk
Climate and environmental risk drivers may have a significant impact on the value of financial assets. Transition-related changes in
official sector policy, technological advances and investor sentiment can alter or reveal new information about future economic
conditions or the value of real or financial assets, resulting in downward price shocks and an increase in market volatility in traded
assets. For instance, the transition to a low-carbon economy may impact commodity markets, especially fossil fuels which are prone
to transition risks. Transition risk could also lead to a breakdown in correlations between assets, reducing the effectiveness of
hedges and challenging banks’ abilities to actively manage their risks.
The impact of transition risk on market risk is assessed using a centrally-developed, RBI Group methodology. This covers both
corporate and sovereign issuers, according to which risk levels are assigned to positions – based on the NACE code/industry and risk
country of the issuer. Corporate exposures are linked to NACE codes/industries and risk levels are assigned based on the industry
share of GHG emissions in the risk country’s total GHG emissions. Sovereigns are linked to countries and risk levels are based on
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
Consolidated non-financial statement
29
several factors: the industry’s GHG emissions, gross value added, wages and salaries, social security costs, environmental taxes, and
operational surplus and mixed income (net). The materiality on market risk is assessed based on the total loss in relation to common
equity tier 1 (CET1).
Liquidity risk
From a liquidity risk perspective, climate change transition risk can affect inflows from customers’ loan repayments (due to lower
creditworthiness) and the value of securities in the liquidity buffer. Liabilities and retail loans are not deemed vulnerable to transition
risk. Meanwhile, if it is assumed that the transition risk is spread over a period of more than three months (i.e., a relatively gradual
change in the legislative environment), the effect on liquidity risk is deemed negligible as it is expected that the balance sheet of the
Bank will gradually adapt to the change. If the risk realization period is less than three months, the effect will be more palpable and
is approached using the same assumptions as for market risk in terms of the devaluation of securities in the liquidity buffer, and
credit risk, in terms of decreased inflows from loans due to a higher default rate. The materiality is assessed on the basis of the
liquidity buffer devaluations’ relative impact on liquidity surplus estimated by internal stress test model (time to wall).
Operational risk
Corporates and banks may be exposed to increasing legal and regulatory compliance risk, as well as litigation and liability costs
associated with climate-sensitive investments and businesses. Furthermore, climate-related lawsuits could target corporations as
well as banks for past environmental conduct, whilst seeking to direct future conduct. The impact of this transmission channel has
been assessed by the operational risk framework that is in place, as current expected losses are measured by analysing historical
data as well as identifying trends and forward-looking approaches. Operational risk is assessed on the loss in relation to the total
revenue of the Bank.
Physical risk
Physical risk drivers are changes in both weather and climate. They are expected to increase over a longer time horizon if the
transition to a sustainable, net-zero economy is not successful (e.g. the hot-house world which is a high emission scenario). Physical
risks can be classified as acute risks, which are related to extreme weather events, or chronic risks associated with gradual shifts in
climate:
· Acute physical risks are generally considered to consist of: floods, wildfires and storms, including hurricanes, cyclones and
typhoons, as well as extreme precipitation
· Chronic physical risks include rising sea levels, rising average temperatures, and water stress. Extended periods of
increased temperatures may also lead to further chronic climate events, such as desertification.
Similarly, extended periods of increased average temperatures could impact the ecosystem, especially agriculture. The way in which
physical risks impact economies will vary depending on geographical location as different regions exhibit distinct climate patterns
and levels of development. Some regions are expected to be more severely affected than others because they are more exposed
and more vulnerable to specific types of weather disasters.
All these hazards are assessed via risk-specific transmission channels over a short, medium and long-term horizon (see section time
horizons) under the orderly and hot-house world scenario based on a physical risk map containing information on hazard-specific
vulnerability and impact for each relevant geolocation.
Credit risk
Physical risk drivers mainly impact banks’ credit risk through their counterparties. The physical capital (housing, inventory, property,
equipment or infrastructure) of households, corporates and sovereigns can be damaged or destroyed by physical hazards. This
damage reduces the value of assets and, consequently, a counterparty’s wealth. Physical risk drivers can also negatively impact the
cash flows of the affected entities as damaged physical capital, such as impaired rental properties and factories, will generate less
income. The damage may be caused by acute physical risks and chronic physical risks, such as rising sea levels. The materiality of
this transmission channel is assessed by mapping portfolio exposure to a physical risk map under different transition scenarios
(orderly, disorderly, hot house), while accounting for coping capacity at the country level (INFORM risk model).
Market risk
Physical risk may be sudden and severe, and have knock-on effects across regions and sectors through interconnected
socioeconomic and financial systems. Physical risks emerging from climate change can cause market price fluctuations, such as
more frequent and severe extreme weather events causing losses in equity prices due to the destruction of firms’ assets or capacity
to produce. Uncertainty about the timing, intensity and location of future severe weather events and other natural disasters may
lead to higher volatility on the financial markets. Overall, the presence of physical risk may lead to a classical risk factor (e.g. an
equity price or an exchange rate) being more volatile than historically observed, or being subject to severe jumps, diminishing the
value of the financial instrument being traded. This transmission channel is assessed by mapping market risk exposure to a physical
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

Consolidated non-financial statement
risk map (again under different transition scenarios (orderly, disorderly, hot house), while considering historical losses and the impact
on GDP.
Liquidity risk
With respect to the effect of physical climate risk on liquidity risk, the logic is similar to that applied to transition risk. If the risk event
is spread over a significant period of time or does not have an immediate effect, this risk has a negligible impact on liquidity risk. If
acute climate physical risks materialize, the following effects are possible:
· Devaluation of securities in the liquidity buffer (in line with the market risk assessment)
· Decrease in inflows from loans due to a higher default rate and higher rollover rate, combined with higher withdrawals of
loans from credit lines.
Customers, including those in the retail segment, use loans to cover damages caused by the event. Outflows from customers’
liabilities arise due to the need to cover damage caused by the event. This effect is not straightforward, as if a bank has a
significant market share and a diverse customer base, it is most likely that a customer who has suffered from the event would have
to pay other customers (e.g. retail customers with damaged houses will pay for construction goods). In addition, the effect can be
temporary in this case, as if the accounts are mainly in a customer’s portfolio, inflows from insurance coverage will be reflected in
the liabilities relatively soon after the potential decrease.
The materiality of this transmission channel has been evaluated by analysing the effect on the liquidity buffer under different
interest and credit spread shocks under different transition scenarios, derived from the region-dependent physical risk score.
Operational risk
Physical hazards can affect banks directly as operational risks. For instance, if physical hazards disrupt transportation facilities and
telecommunications infrastructure, banks’ operational ability may be reduced. The impact of this transmission channel was
assessed by extending the physical risk drivers to the operational risk assessment and scenario. In this scenario, business continuity
management costs are measured using scenario methodology, i.e., it is assumed that the physical risk may cause potential business
continuity management events (critical site not available and IT availability & continuity). The locations for both the primary head
office and data centers were evaluated by the external data provider in terms of exposure to the climate and environmental risk
drivers mentioned. The results of the scenario analysis did not reveal any severe impacts from those specific risk drivers.
Results of the climate related risk assessment
In the materiality assessment 2024, with the cut-off date of 30 June 2024 and using the methodology outlined above, all transitional
and physical risks to the market, liquidity, operational and credit risk indicators were assessed at a low level for RBHU Group.

The thresholds for the materiality analysis are determined individually by risk type. For credit risk, the effect of transition risk is
derived from the probability of default of customers in different transition scenarios compared to actual values. For physical risk, the
threshold is set individually for each possible event (e.g. flood, wildfire), and the final effect represents a combination of the event's
probability and the resilience of a region. For market risk, the potential loss is measured in relation to total capital. For operational
risk, the estimated loss in both transition and physical risk scenarios is compared against a threshold in accordance with RBI's
internal operational risk framework.
For liquidity risk assessment, all scenarios and risk drivers demonstrated low materiality. Given that Climate and Environmental (C&E)
risks have low materiality and that the main transition channels for liquidity risk are market and credit risks, only the materiality
assessment is currently part of the ILAAP. Nonetheless, the Group is considering the integration of a stress scenario for C&E risks
within the scope of liquidity risk.
To further reflect the risk related to income dependency (in parallel to the impact on risk parameters), the ICAAP risk assessment
was extended with risk indicators related to income from industries with high contribution to climate change. Initial results show
contribution to the Bank’s income from relevant industries as (low) not material (below ten per cent).

Environmental information
Regulatory disclosure requirement in accordance with Article 8 of the EU
Taxonomy Regulation
The EU Taxonomy Regulation sets out an EU-wide framework that allows investors and undertakings to determine whether
certain economic activities are environmentally sustainable. Article 8 of the EU Taxonomy Regulation requires undertakings
covered by the Directive (EU) 2022/2464 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 December 2022 amending
Regulation (EU) No 537/2014, Directive 2004/109/EC, Directive 2006/43/EC and Directive 2013/34/EU, as regards corporate
sustainability reporting (CSRD) to publish information on how and to what extent their economic activities qualify as
environmentally sustainable under the EU Taxonomy Regulation. RBHU Group is therefore required to disclose the taxonomy
eligibility and taxonomy alignment of its economic activities for 2024.
The Green Asset Ratio (GAR) serves as a benchmark and reporting metric for taxonomy alignment. It describes the share of
RBHU Group’s green taxonomy-aligned business relative to the covered assets. However, the GARs disclosed by the Bank for
2024 is mostly based on retail exposure, as well as general-purpose exposure to non-financial undertakings which were subject
to the Directive 2014/95/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 October 2014 amending Directive 2013/34/EU
as regards disclosure of non-financial and diversity information by certain large undertakings and groups the Non-Financial
Reporting Directive (NFRD; now CSRD). Loans to smaller companies and non-EU businesses, for instance, are not included the
2024 disclosure, which can distort the picture enormously depending on a banking group’s key activities. Furthermore, the GAR
does not reflect the fact that RBHU Group focused on the economic ESG transformation of its customers. In particular, RBHU
Group supported undertakings that are already on the path to sustainability but whose transactions were not yet completely
green according to the definitions of the EU Taxonomy Regulation.
The Bank’s engagement with clients on the EU Taxonomy involves educating them about the classification system for
sustainable activities that are relevant for the sector, and its importance in aligning investments with the EU's environmental
goals from the perspective of a financial institution. The ‘ESG experts’ support clients, especially but not restricted to clients in
the real estate and electric utilities sectors, by providing guidance on how their activities can meet the taxonomy criteria,
thereby facilitating access to sustainable finance and enhancing transparency.
I. Mandatory disclosure
RBHU Group disclosed all key performance indicators (KPIs) in accordance with the Disclosures Delegated Act (Commission
Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178 of 6 July 2021). This regulation supplements Regulation (EU) 2020/852 of the European
Parliament and of the Council by specifying the content and presentation of information to be disclosed by undertakings
subject to Articles 19a or 29a of Directive 2013/34/EU concerning environmentally sustainable economic activities and
specifying the methodology to comply with that disclosure obligation. For additional information and improved clarity, the
disclosure of these quantitative KPIs was supplemented by qualitative information pursuant to Annex XI of the Disclosures
Delegated Act. For 2024, the Bank disclosed information on taxonomy eligibility and alignment with regard to the first two
environmental objectives – climate change mitigation and climate change adaptation. Information available for the Bank on
taxonomy for the other four environmental objectives is still very limited.
An overview of the relevant key figures and templates that are reported in accordance with Article 8 of the EU Taxonomy
Regulation and the supplementary Disclosure Delegated Act for 2024 is available in the chapter “Overview of relevant KPIs and
templates”. The figures for the main KPI GAR stock and the additional KPI GAR flow are shown below.

Regulation. Detailed information on the calculations as per the qualitative disclosures required by Annex XI of the Delegated
Regulation can be found separately for each KPI below.
RBHU Group’s approach for determining Taxonomy-eligible and Taxonomy-aligned economic
activities, assets and economic sectors (Template 0-2)
RBHU Group’s banking book was used to determine its taxonomy-eligible and taxonomy-aligned economic activities. Total
covered assets were identified as per the requirements of the full GAR disclosure. Exposures towards central banks,
supranational institutions, the central government, and assets held for trading were excluded. The remaining covered assets
formed the denominator in the formula for calculating the GAR.
All the taxonomy-eligible and taxonomy-aligned economic activities were included in the numerator for calculating the GAR.
They were defined as covered assets additionally belonging to one of the following categories:
· Taxonomy-eligible and taxonomy-aligned economic activities of CSRD undertakings
In accordance with Article 8 of the EU Taxonomy Regulation, the disclosure was based on the obligation to publish
non-financial information pursuant to Articles 19a and 29a of Directive 2013/34/EU of the European Parliament and
of the Council of 26 June 2013 on the annual financial statements, consolidated financial statements and related
reports of certain types of undertakings, amending Directive 2006/43/EC of the European Parliament and of the
Council and repealing Council Directives 78/660/EEC and 83/349/EEC. While for 2023, these articles were set out in
the NFRD, the disclosure for 2024 was based on the CSRD, which replaced the respective Articles 19a and 29a.
· Taxonomy-eligible and taxonomy-aligned economic activities in retail banking
· Taxonomy-eligible and taxonomy-aligned economic activities related to local and regional government financing
· Real estate collaterals obtained by taking possession in exchange for the cancellation of debt and held for sale.
In addition, derivatives (not held for trading), on-demand interbank loans, cash and cash-related assets and other assets (e.g.
goodwill, commodities) were also excluded from the numerator, but were included in the calculation of the denominator for
the Green Asset Ratio. Furthermore, no exposures to non-EU or to small and medium-sized enterprises were taken into
consideration.
If the purpose was known at transaction level and was consistent with the defined activities of the EU Taxonomy Regulation or
the supplementary delegated regulation – for example, a property loan (acquisition and ownership of a building) – RBHU Group
took into account exposures to the extent that taxonomy eligibility and taxonomy alignment could be demonstrated for the
underlying transaction. In cases where a transaction qualified for more than one environmental objective, RBHU Group
assigned the transaction, or an appropriate portion of it, to the most relevant objective to prevent double counting. The
decision on which environmental goal is considered the most relevant is made based on expert opinion during the assessment
and should reflect the purpose of the transaction.
For transactions conducted for general purposes – for example, for granting a working capital facility – RBHU Group took into
account the relevant taxonomy KPIs for taxonomy eligibility and taxonomy alignment that were provided or disclosed by the
counterparties.
The relevant taxonomy KPIs for general-purpose transactions, including investment (CapEx) and turnover KPIs for non-financial
counterparties, as well as taxonomy specific KPIs for financial counterparties, were gathered through an internal data
collection project and supplemented by an external data provider.
In the disclosure for 2024, it was possible to include KPIs for taxonomy alignment for the first two environmental objectives of
financial counterparties for the first time. These were published in 2024 (for the 2023 financial year). Regarding taxonomy
eligibility, both financial and non-financial counterparties published KPIs for the four new environmental objectives for the first
time in 2024 (for the 2023 financial year). Non-financial undertakings will be required to publish KPIs for taxonomy alignment
for these four new environmental objectives in 2025 (for the 2024 financial year), while financial undertakings will be required
to do so by 2026 (for the 2025 financial year).
The share of RBHU Group’s exposures to non-CSRD undertakings for 2024 was material. The gradual implementation of the
CSRD is expected to improve the KPIs, as it will also significantly increase the number of enterprises to be considered.
As structured data availability remains limited, in particular regarding the evidence required to assess use-of-proceeds
transactions, and given the limitations described above, RBHU Group’s relevant portfolio could not be considered in full for the
GAR assessment. However, RBHU Group along with RBI is consistently working on improving the data situation. Furthermore, it
is expected that the share of taxonomy-eligible and taxonomy-aligned exposures will change accordingly and increase in the
future as more information is likely to be disclosed by customers.

The allocation of NACE codes, as disclosed in template 2 for the GAR sector information, is done based on the main business of
the counterparty which is identified via information from local public registries or based on data from an external data
provider.
This chart refers to the disclosure of the taxonomy-eligible and taxonomy-aligned economic activities on CapEx-based indicators. The percentage figures in the chart
above refer to the share of the respective position in relation to RBHU Group’s total assets. For the calculation of the taxonomy-aligned value (yellow), i.e. the Green Asset
Ratio, the number in the qualitative chart refers to covered assets (denominator), not total assets.
Exposures to Taxonomy-aligned economic activities/covered assets (GAR (stock)) (Template 3)
The RBHU Group’s (Raiffeisen Bank Hungary and its affiliates) assets with exposures to taxonomy-aligned economic activities
amounted to 12,160.83 million HUF and are used int the calculation of the GAR (CapEx). In accordance with the instructions set
out in Annex V of the Delegated Regulation, the exposures to be included in the numerator encompass banking book loans and
advances to CSRD-relevant clients, households (limited to loans collateralized by residential real estate and loans granted for
home renovation purposes), and loans and advances to local governments.
All retail exposures relevant to the EU Taxonomy were analyzed under the relevant economic activities and environmental
objectives in accordance with the Disclosures Delegated Act and included in the CapEx as well as in the turnover GAR. With
regard to compliance with minimum social safeguards (MS), the interpretation of the Platform on Sustainable Finance as set
out in the Final Report on Minimum Safeguards (available at sustainable-finance-platform-finance-report) was followed, which
does not cover the application of the MS criteria for retail exposures. The total amount of taxonomy-aligned economic
activities in the retail sector amounted to 2,738.8 million HUF out of a total of 12,160.83 million HUF. The GAR (CapEx) amounted
to 0.40 per cent, of which 0.09 percentage points corresponded to the contribution of taxonomy-aligned economic activities in
the retail sector.
RBHU Group has analysed retail exposures in detail, particularly house purchase loans. Besides identifying thresholds for Nearly
Zero Energy Buildings (NZEB), analyses identifying the top 15 per cent of the national building stock in terms of Primary Energy
Demand (PED) for economic activity 7.7 (acquisition and ownership of buildings) were included in the calculation, where such
analyses were based on transparent real data in line with the relevant FAQs. It was not possible to collect the necessary
information from retail customers regarding building renovation loans as well as car loans given the detailed and high
demands. Such financing was therefore still generally recognized as taxonomy non-aligned.
The physical risk assessment for the retail segment was performed with the help of an external provider. A physical risk
assessment, including a vulnerability analysis, was conducted for the relevant financed properties both within and outside the
EU in accordance with Appendix A of Annex I of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2139 of 4 June 2021 supplementing
Regulation (EU) 2020/852 of the European Parliament and of the Council by establishing the technical screening criteria for
determining the conditions under which an economic activity qualifies as contributing substantially to climate change
mitigation or climate change adaptation, and for determining whether that economic activity causes no significant harm to
any of the other environmental objectives. The physical risk assessment considered acute and chronic risks for the relevant
hazards as set out in that Appendix and used an Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) RCP 8.5 scenario. The
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

Consolidated non-financial statement
assessment was not passed if the seriousness of a threat was considered very high and no corresponding risk mitigation
measures were taken.
By reference to internally available data, RBHU Group’s CSRD client base was determined according to the following criteria:
· The country in which the counterparty is registered must be an EU member state
· The business partner’s total assets (on a consolidated basis) must be more than or equal to € 25 million or its total
revenue (turnover) must be more than or equal to € 50 million. For insurance and reinsurance undertakings, the gross
premiums written were used instead of revenue, while the gross operating result was used for the other financial
institutions
· The relevant thresholds as set out in Directive 2013/34/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June
2013 on the annual financial statements, consolidated financial statements and related reports of certain types of
undertakings, amending Directive 2006/43/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Council
Directives 78/660/EEC and 83/349/EEC (the Accounting Directive) were updated by the Commission Delegated
Directive (EU) 2023/2775 of 17 October 2023 amending Directive 2013/34/EU of the European Parliament and of the
Council as regards the adjustments of the size criteria for micro, small, medium-sized and large undertakings or
groups
· The customer was either a capital market-oriented company, a credit institution or an insurance undertaking
· The customer had more than 500 employees on an average basis (on a consolidated basis).
RBHU Group also considered subsidiaries that were fully consolidated under CSRD customers and did not publish/provide
taxonomy KPIs on a stand-alone basis in a sustainability statement.
The disclosure of taxonomy-eligible and taxonomy-aligned exposures must be based on actual information provided by the
financial or non-financial undertaking. RBHU Group, along with RBI collected such data as part of the data collection project. In
addition, third-party data providers were used to obtain information for the assessment of taxonomy-eligible and taxonomy-
aligned economic activities.
Exposures to Taxonomy-aligned economic activities/covered assets (GAR (flow)) (Template 4)
The GAR KPI flow was calculated in line with the GAR KPI stock. However, unlike GAR KPI stock, it only considered those positions
that were newly concluded in the 2024 financial year.
Off-balance-sheet exposures to Taxonomy-aligned economic activities/covered assets (Template 5)
RBHU Group analysed its off-balance sheet exposure, both with purpose known and general purpose with regard to taxonomy
alignment for the first two environmental objectives – climate change mitigation and climate change adaptation – and the
taxonomy eligibility of the four new environmental objectives. For the disclosure of off-balance-sheet exposures, a distinction
was made between financial guarantees and assets under management.
The methodology for calculating the KPI for financial guarantees corresponded to the methodology laid down for loans and
advances, and for bonds. However, it was applied to the underlying transaction of the financial guarantees. If RBHU Group had
no data on the specific purpose of the underlying transaction, the counterparties‘ KPIs were used. For the earmarked
exposures, the counterparties‘ taxonomy data were collected internally as part of the data collection project and by an
external data provider.
The KPI for assets under management was calculated in line with the methodology determined for asset managers. The
numerator comprised the weighted average value of the investments in the taxonomy-aligned economic activities of the
enterprises in which investments were made. Reference was made here to the information on the taxonomy eligibility and
taxonomy alignment of the respective counterparties (financial and non-financial CSRD undertakings) and the corresponding
KPIs were used. For the earmarked exposures, data was also collected internally as part of the data collection project and by
an external data provider. RBHU Group is committed to continuously improving its own processes and the topic of ESG data
availability and quality as part of a constructive dialog with the relevant stakeholders.
Exposures to Taxonomy-eligible and Taxonomy-aligned economic activities/covered assets for
nuclear and gas economic activities (Templates in accordance with Annex XII of the Disclosures
Delegated Act)
The EU Taxonomy includes six economic activities in the nuclear and gas sector. Companies operating in these sectors that are
subject to taxonomy disclosures are therefore also required to publish EU Taxonomy data on taxonomy eligibility and
taxonomy alignment for their relevant nuclear and gas activities.

RBHU Group’s sustainability concept in the nuclear and gas sector is detailed in the RBI Group’s ESG framework (business policy
on nuclear energy and business policy on oil & gas). Our parent company takes a restrictive approach towards the nuclear
sector in accordance with its Code of Conduct. RBI implemented this restrictive approach for the following entities and their
relevant suppliers in particular: nuclear power plants (NPPs), companies mining, processing and trading with nuclear fuel, or
companies managing nuclear waste (storage of spent fuel derived from NPPs).
The above-mentioned policy takes into consideration that nuclear power plants are usually operated by electricity companies
or holdings. As a consequence, thereof, RBHU Group seeks to continue its cooperation with these electricity companies or
holdings, albeit with strict segregation from nuclear power plants and connected activities (i.e. any financing to electricity
providers that process energy from nuclear sources is only allowed if the purpose of the financing is not used for or related to
nuclear power plants).
Accordingly, any resultant exposure only stemmed from taxonomy KPIs for the nuclear sector as published by the companies in
question. In addition, RBI has implemented a sector-specific group policy for the gas sector, in which it addresses the handling
of oil and gas economic activities.
In 2024 RBHU Group had no taxonomy-eligible or taxonomy-aligned exposures earmarked in the gas sector. Accordingly, only
the taxonomy KPIs published by the companies were used for the gas sector. KPIs for the nuclear and gas sectors were
collected internally as part of the data collection project and supplemented by an external data provider. For the specific
nuclear and gas activities of the relevant counterparties, all revenue-based and investment-based taxonomy KPIs were
included regarding their taxonomy eligibility and taxonomy alignment. For 2024, this also involved the respective KPIs of
financial undertakings, including other credit institutions for the first time.
III. Adjustments in the presentation of information compared to the previous annual
reporting period
The EU Taxonomy is a novel framework, and the interpretation of its requirements is still subject to change. Further guidance,
such as those provided by the European Commission in the FAQs can provide clarity and has been continuously monitored and
evaluated by the Bank. The disclosure in accordance with Article 8 of the EU Taxonomy for 2024 reflected the Bank’s current
understanding of the EU Taxonomy. The FAQs of the European Commission were taken into account, insofar as the guidance
does not exceed the requirements of the Taxonomy Regulation and Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178 or
contradict the requirements of those regulations or explanations provided in previous FAQs.

Note 2: Fees and Commissions (sheet 6) and Trading Book (sheet 7) KPIs shall only apply as of 2026. SMEs´inclusion in these KPIs will only apply subject to a positive result of an impact assessment.
For the financial year 2024, the % of assets excluded from the numerator of the GAR (Article 7(2) and (3) and Section 1.1.2. of
Annex V) also includes exposures to undertakings that are not obliged to publish non-financial information pursuant to Article
19a or 29a of Directive 2013/34/EU as referred to in Article 7(3) of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178.
Disclosure template 1 – assets for the calculation of GAR
1. This template shall include information for loans and advances, debt securities and equity instruments in the banking book, towards financial corporates, non-
financial corporates (NFC), including SMEs, households (including residential real estate, house renovation loans and motor vehicle loans only) and local governments/
municipalities (house financing).
2. The following accounting categories of financial assets should be considered: Financial assets at amortised cost, financial assets at fair value through other
comprehensive income, investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss and non-trading
financial assets mandatorily at fair value through profit or loss, and real estate collaterals obtained by credit institutions by taking possession in exchange in of
cancellation of debts.
3. Banks with non-EU subsidiary should provide this information separately for exposures towards non-EU counterparties. For non-EU exposures, while there are
additional challenges in terms of absence of common disclosure requirements and methodology, as the EU taxonomy and the NFRD apply only at EU level, given the
relevance of these exposures for those credit institutions with non-EU subsidiaries, these institutions should disclose a separate GAR for non-EU exposures, on a best
effort basis, in the form of estimates and ranges, using proxies, and explaining the assumptions, caveats and limitations
4. For motor vehicle loans, institutions shall only include those exposures generated after the date of application of the disclosure
For the financial year 2024, collateral obtained by taking possession as set out in row 31 is not included in row 1 (which includes
loans and advances, debt securities and equity instruments).
For the financial year 2024, assets related to household exposures which are not relevant for the GAR calculation (i.e. exposures
not included in the green asset ratio for retail exposures as set out in section 1.2.1.3. of Annex V of the Commission Delegated
Regulation (EU) 2021/2178) are included in row 47 (other categories of assets) and not in row 49 (assets not covered for GAR
calculation), as these exposures are not excluded from the calculation of the numerator and denominator of the key
performance indicators in accordance with Article 7(1) of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178.

Template 2 – GAR sector information
1. Credit institutions shall disclose in this template information on exposures in the banking book towards those sectors covered by the Taxonomy (NACE sectors 4 levels
of detail), using the relevant NACE Codes on the basis of the principal activity of the counterparty
2. The counterparty NACE sector allocation shall be based exclusively on the nature of the immediate counterparty. The classification of the exposures incurred jointly
by more than one obligor shall be done on the basis of the characteristics of the obligor that was the more relevant, or determinant, for the institution to grant the
exposure. The distribution of jointly incurred exposures by NACE codes shall be driven by the characteristics of the more relevant or determinant obligor. Institutions
shall disclose information by NACE codes with the level of disaggregation required in the template.

Template 3 – GAR KPI stock
1. Institution shall disclose in this template the GAR KPIs on stock of loans calculated based on the data disclosed in template 1, on covered assets, and by applying the
formulas proposed in this template
2. Information on the GAR (green asset ratio of 'eligible' activities) shall be accompanied with information on the proportion of total assets covered by the GAR
3. Credit institutions can, in addition to the information included in this template, show the proportion of assets funding taxonomy relevant sectors that are
environmentally sustainable (Taxonomy-aligned). This information would enrich the information on the KPI on environmentally sustainable assets compared to total
covered assets
4. Credit institutions shall duplicate this template for revenue based and CapEx based disclosures
Note: For the financial year 2024, in order to accurately reflect the information to be disclosed in accordance with Sections
1.2.1.1., 1.2.1.2., 1.2.1.4. and 1.2.1.5. of Annex V of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178, the proportions to be disclosed
in this template are calculated by dividing the relevant eligible or aligned assets as recorded in template 1 (Assets for the
calculation of the GAR) by the respective covered assets (as recorded in column a, rows 1-31 and 48 of that template) instead
of the Total GAR assets (as set out in row 48 of that asset).

E1-1: Transition plan for climate change mitigation
Value chain
The climate and environmental business strategy implementation plan of RBHU Group has been approved by the RBHU Group
Management Board as part of the Bank’s ESG Policy Statement document as starting point of the RBHU Group transition
planning. The strategy has a clear goal of supporting customers’ funding for investments in the green transition process and
reducing emissions financed by RBHU Group.
Climate and environmental transition is an integral part of the Bank’s business strategy, representing a key step towards the
2050 net-zero target. In 2024, the primary focus was explicitly on converting the general qualitative goals into specific
quantitative targets.
RBHU Group is committed to achieve the following targets:
· Short-term (by 2025)
· Develop key elements of climate and environmental transition execution plan for reaching CO2 targets
2030 in line with RBI Group Transition plan and define necessary measures. 
· Mid-term (by 2030)
· Reduce GHG emissions in the corporate lending portfolio by 17 per cent in RBHU Group. For more
information, please refer to the chapter E1-4: Targets related to climate change mitigation and
adaptation
· Ongoing adaption of the climate and environmental business strategy / transition plan for climate
protection.
· Long-term (by 2050)
· The Bank intends to follow the RBI Group’s commitment to be in line with the 1.5ºC pathway and therefore
aims to be in line with the net-zero greenhouse gas emission target by 2050.
RBHU Group set itself emission targets which were approved by the Management Board in 2024. The emission targets are
formulated such that they support RBI Groups’ 2030 emission targets in line with the 1.5ºC pathway to reach net zero in 2050.
The pathway was derived based on the Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS) scenario. The chosen scenario is
country specific as processed and published by the International Monetary Fund through its climate change dashboard (NGFS
phase 4 net zero orderly transition).
The Bank is not excluded from the EU Paris-aligned Benchmarks and fulfills this disclosure in compliance with Commission
Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/2453 and Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/1818 (Climate Benchmark Regulation),
Articles 12.1 (d) to (g) and 12.2.
In its ESG Policy Statement, RBHU Group also focuses on supporting the Bank’s customers in their climate and environmental
transition. To support customers in their climate and environmental transition, RBHU Group intends to act at industry level,
customer level, and transaction and product level. In this respect, the following implementation actions are planned:
· Customer engagement strategies:
Focus on informing customers about the benefits and opportunities of sustainable finance solutions, with offering
interactive sessions on the advantage of transitioning to green energy sources, EVs, adhering to green building
standards and promoting energy efficiency investments.
· Development of new products or services:
Having established a strong presence in renewable energy and green building financing in recent years, the primary
focus of product development will now shift to introducing ESG KPI-linked loans and expanding green leasing
options.
· New policies and procedures:
Three key areas will be the focus when introducing new policies and procedures. First, emphasis will be placed on
aligning loan processing with EU Taxonomy, with necessary frameworks developed and best practices gathered
from clients, peers, and independent advisory service providers. Second, it is crucial to further strengthen the credit

policy to support green lending. Finally, maintaining the Green Incentive Program for green loans is necessary to
provide competitive offers in the market with maintaining profitability.
· Changes in lending conditions or documentation:
Embedding green building and sustainability criteria into loan terms and documentation.
· ESG data collection:
Encouraging clients to provide as detailed and accurate sustainability data as possible, be able to complete banking
ESG questionnaires. Integration of sustainability reporting standards into IT infrastructure.
· Implications on the business and risk profile in the short, medium and long-term, including an impact estimation on
revenues and profitability:
The Bank intends to seek new green lending opportunities within the existing portfolio and exclude most of
restrictive lending over on midterm. It also intends to focus on its established strengths in green building and
renewable energy financing. Additionally, introducing new KPI-linked financing loans could also contribute to
enhance the green aspect of the balance sheet.
Assets and business activities that are incompatible with or need significant efforts to be compatible with transition
to climate-neutral economy have not been identified.
· Actions and measures:
Increase customer engagement through relevant products and proper ESG advisory, while innovating and
customizing green financial products to meet emerging market demands and EU Taxonomy regulations. Offer ESG
advisory services to relevant clients, maintain and potentially enhance green incentivization schemes for borrowing,
and create financial projections under both scenarios with a focus on growth projections tied to green loan
products. Additionally, assess and upgrade IT infrastructure to ensure robust support for the green product lineup
and EU Taxonomy reporting.
Expected timeline for Implementation of our ambitions in line with our business activity:
· Short-term (0-2 years):
· Launch and promotion of the updated green loan product suite
· Continue participation in more state-incentivized green loan programs.
· Medium-term (2-5 years):
· Establishment of a lending oriented ESG advisory service
· Expansion into green bonds investments and arrangements.
· Long-term (5+ years):
· Enhanced market reputation as a sustainable green bank
· Full alignment with EU Taxonomy and green capital relief program supports entrenched into all aspects of
lending.
Regarding transition, a key aspect is the planned development of the climate and environmental transition plan. The transition
plan is set to serve as a guide for business decisions involving large corporates with the aim to develop a 1.5ºC-aligned
corporate portfolio by 2030. Based on the ESG score and the status of clients’ specific physical emissions data, clients would be
clustered into three categories:
· Supportive – customers are advanced in setting up their emissions in line with RBI Group’s and consequently RBHU
Group’s 2030 targets, and their ESG rating is above average. The Bank’s focus for these clients is to provide
innovative ESG products and orient them towards future environmental challenges.
· Transformative – customers either lack developed targets to reach the 2030 threshold or have a below-average ESG
rating. The Bank’s focus for these clients is to offer a range of products and services to help improving their ESG
transition ambitions.
· Restrictive – customers that do not have developed targets and whose ESG rating is below average.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

To support the transition of the financed corporate portfolio towards the environmental targets outlined above, RBHU Group
has introduced portfolio KPI monitoring in terms of average ESG score starting from Y2025 as part of its Corporate Credit
Policy.
Own operations
RBI Group views environmental and climate protection as an integral part of business activity and sees itself as a fair partner
to the environment. The direct environmental impacts of our operational activities are limited compared with those of
production industries. Nevertheless, RBI Group has the goal of limiting negative environmental impacts at all of its sites.
Short-term (by 2026): see at E1-4: Targets related to climate change mitigation and adaptation.
As a responsible operator, RBHU Group has implemented and operates two management systems to ensure the company:
In the case of ISO 14001 EMS:
· Continually improves its overall environmental performance, providing a reliable foundation for initiatives aimed at
sustainable development (e.g., operating a circular economy)
· Systematically manages its environmental responsibilities by enhancing environmental performance, significantly
contributing to environmental sustainability.
In the case of ISO 50001 EMS:
· The general goal is to continuously improve the organization’s energy management performance, including energy
efficiency, usage, and adjusted consumption. The overall objectives also include – in alignment with EMS – reducing
greenhouse gas emissions and energy costs.
ESRS 2 SBM-3: Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with
strategy and business model
Climate stress testing
The Bank applies stress testing methodologies as part of the risk identification and assessment process, and most importantly
for the analysis of the resilience of its exposures. Climate stress testing is conducted centrally on HO level for all Network Units
and overall on Group level. As such, the outcome of the 2022 external/ECB climate risk stress testing exercise conducted by RBI
was an important first step, and it confirmed the sectors and regions that were identified internally, on group level, as mostly
affected by climate risk.
The exercise gave RBI important benchmark information with respect to model calibrations, data availability and the general
confirmation of its internal framework. Based on this information, the three-year disorderly transition scenario (delayed
warming by 2°C) has been incorporated into RBI’s internal capital adequacy assessment framework (ICAAP), together with a
flood risk scenario.
After the first successful external climate stress testing exercise in 2022 and internal climate stress testing exercise in 2023, the
internal framework for climate stress testing was further refined to incorporate more risks and balance sheet assumptions
(covering credit, market & operational risk). For the 2024 climate stress testing, RBI’s positioning as of the cut-off of Q2-2024
was considered in the course of the assessment. The time horizon applied in the short term is three years, and the long-term
analysis covers the time horizon up until 2050 (at time buckets 2030, 2040, 2050).
The transitional risks for non-retail and retail credit risk as well as operational and market risks were subject to an acute
physical risk stress test for the retail collateral relating to flood risk. The basis of the scenarios was assessed by RBI’s risk
research in line with the latest Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS) publications. The following scenarios have
been selected:
· Disorderly (delayed transition) scenarios explore higher transition risks due to policies being delayed or divergent
across countries and sectors. For example, (shadow) carbon prices are typically higher for a given temperature
outcome.
· Orderly scenarios aimed at net-zero emissions by 2050 assume climate policies are introduced early and become
gradually more stringent. Both physical and transition risks are relatively subdued.
· Hot house world (current policies) scenarios assume that some climate policies are implemented in some
jurisdictions, but overall efforts are insufficient to halt significant global warming. The scenarios result in severe
physical risk with limited transition risk.

Consolidated non-financial statement
The selected scenarios are compatible with the critical climate-related assumptions made in the financial statements in terms
of the time horizon, methodology and possible outcomes.
Disorderly scenarios are largely driving transition risks, thereby staggering carbon and energy prices, which mutes gross
domestic product (GDP) growth in the first years of the short-term scenarios. In the long-term perspective for disorderly,
orderly and hot house world, the projections are rather mixed. The disorderly scenario shows a significant downside between
2030 and 2034 due to severe delayed policy changes. The orderly scenario, however, shows a more positive GDP development
from 2035 to 2045 due to the smoother transition. By the year 2050, it is expected that the differences between the various
scenarios will converge again.
For the non-retail portfolio, due to the lack of historical data combined with sharp and prolonged increases in carbon taxes
and electricity costs, RBI cannot directly measure the impact of climate transition policies on defaults of corporates in the non-
retail portfolio (as in the case with IFRS 9 and regular macro stress testing). Instead, RBI currently uses an approach that
models the impact of such policies using structural models at the NACE sector level (level 2), based on the development of
corporate profitability and debt-servicing ability. RBI then uses the financial module of its corporate rating model to turn
projections of firm finances into one-year probability of default (PD) projections.
RBI refers to the first step as the transition risk engine, which consists of two parts:
· The sectoral-level general equilibrium models: this model calculates the impact of policies or shocks in the economy
by taking account of the interdependencies between market participants and applying the economic theory of
general equilibrium. The sectoral model provides the production/output and cost levels during stressed periods for
each sector.
· Firm-level balance sheet models: the outcomes of the sectoral model are then transposed to the individual
companies in the respective sectors.
This approach produces stressed balance sheets that include both the “direct” effect of carbon taxes and the indirect effect of
macroeconomic aggregates. Once RBI has produced the stressed corporate balance sheets, the corporate rating model is
applied to these shocks to produce one-year PDs. Finally, the projected PD is calculated by taking the internal rating derivation
logic into account.
In the retail portfolio, especially for residential mortgage exposures, retail models have been extended for the purpose of the
climate stress test to include energy price and house price index (HPI) developments in the PD and LGD (loss given default)
macroeconomic models according to the energy efficiency (EPC, energy performance certificate) label awarded to the
underlying collateral. For this purpose, each retail macroeconomic model now includes the HPI per EPC as parameter and
energy prices in the climate and environmental stress calculation. The HPI per EPC scenario applied is based on the Network for
Greening the Financial System input, which also includes an HPI for unknown EPC labels that is applied accordingly in the
assessment. In line with the ECB climate stress test 2022, all corporate bonds and equity positions in the trading book are
subject to this fair value revaluation as market risk scope.
From an operational risk perspective, initial physical risks in the form of direct losses (e.g. critical IT infrastructure) and
transitional and compliance risk scenarios (e.g. greenwashing) have been defined as part of the economic capital calculation to
account for forward-looking risk triggered by environmental and climate-related events in the short-term scenario as well.
Both effects might yield reputational and legal costs. For market risk the corporate bond portfolio was stressed in the short-
term scenario with dedicated bond spread shocks being applied directly affecting the profits and losses or capital.
In addition to the assessment of the risk-related impacts, profitability impacts were also re-evaluated in the course of the
short-term exercise. For this purpose, net interest income and net fee commission income flows were simulated given a
stressed interest environment under the disorderly scenario. Alongside the credit risks, impacts on net interest income and net
fee commission income were the main contributors to the impact of the stress test in the short-term scenarios.
As outlined, the short-term exercise is complemented with a 1-year acute physical risk scenario for which the collaterals on
retail and non-retail are shocked individually. For this purpose, all collaterals are scored from low to very high under the given
scenario according to Moody’s physical risk tool. According to this score, haircuts on the dedicated collateral values and real
estate value are applied, reducing their values significantly. The resilience to further physical hazards, e.g. heatwave, will be
investigated in upcoming exercises.
Based on the learning from previous exercises (long and short-term), the focus for the 2024 long-term exercise was on credit
risk, market risk and income components only. For the analysis, a sector-related portfolio growth was considered as part of a
dynamic portfolio assumption – on top of a static balance sheet assumption. In contrast to the short-term stress testing, the
disorderly, orderly and Hot-House-World scenario was analysed for the long-term exercise.
The results of the short-term and acute physical risk stress tests contribute to RBHU Group’s framework via a deduction item
from the internal capital – see the dedicated results below. Furthermore, the climate risk stress test is one of the input
parameters to the materiality assessment and should also complement the target and strategy selection. Given the relatively
young discipline, the annual exercise is used to reassess the assumptions made and models in order to reduce the uncertainty

of the resilience analysis. This especially covers the area of dynamic balance sheet assumptions, data coverage/completeness
and modelling assumptions given the scarcity of data.
Both on RBI Group and RBHU Group level, the impact on the risk parameters from the climate risk exercises has been assessed
as non-material, supporting the overall resilience of the Bank. This is considered mild, in comparison to regular stress test
exercises, such as the EBA stress test where a comparably larger depletion is observed and confirms the relatively low effect
from the isolated climate effect on the risk parameters.

RBI taxonomy rulebook
The RBI taxonomy rulebook outlines the regulatory requirements of the EU Taxonomy Regulation and the respective
implementing and delegated acts and how these need to be implemented across the RBI Group, respectively the Bank in order
ensure regulatory compliance. The RBI taxonomy rulebook thus provides the methodology for the disclosure of the proportion
of financing provided by the Bank which relates to economic activities that substantially contribute to the environmental
objectives of the EU Taxonomy and fulfil the relevant technical screening criteria, DNSH requirements and minimum
safeguards. The Bank ensures that a financing flagged as taxonomy-aligned is classified in line with the requirements of the
RBI taxonomy rulebook. Accordingly, Sustainable Finance, with the support of the relevant departments, reviews the respective
transactions and provided documentation. In addition, where applicable, the assessment must be carried out using a
dedicated tool that ensures that the requirements are fulfilled.
The policy concerns both the collection of disclosed counterparty KPIs regarding general-purpose exposures as well as the
assessment of exposures with known use of proceeds during the origination process and based on documentation provided by
the counterparty. Thus, it must be considered by all employees at head office and in the subsidiaries involved in the
assessment and flagging of taxonomy eligibility and alignment and the respective reporting of KPIs, in particular ESG experts,
Risk Controlling and Regulatory Reporting.
RBHU Group is subject to the requirement to publish non-financial information pursuant to Article 19a and Article 29a of CSRD
and consequently to the disclosure obligation as outlined in Article 8 Taxonomy Regulation and the respective delegated acts.
The respective assessment of exposures with known use of proceeds is conducted locally in RBHU Group, while the
implementation of the RBI taxonomy rulebook lies with the Group Risk Data & Regulatory Reporting department.
The application of the rules falls into the responsibility of the Department Heads of those business areas that are in charge for
the lending activities.

E1-3: Actions and resources in relation to climate change policies
Value chain
Corporate and Institutional customers
One key goal for the climate & environmental business strategy is to incorporate the climate targets of the Paris Agreement
into RBI Group and consequently to RBHU Group balance sheet. The Bank identifies and measures climate related impacts. This
allows to recognize new business opportunities on one hand, while on the other hand setting measures to mitigate harmful
effects to the climate and environment, thus making its overall business composition more sustainable.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

Consolidated non-financial statement
In a first step, RBI Group runs an assessment both at portfolio and counterparty level, on a qualitative and quantitative basis
across the various customer types and industries. The goal is to identify both risks and opportunities and to create the
conditions for potentially necessary management of sustainability risks customer and industry levels. At this stage at portfolio
level, the Bank relies on the results of the materiality analysis and impact analysis, the financed emission calculation, and
results from the climate stress test. At counterparty level, the Bank focuses on the ESG counterparty assessment and includes
its considerations in the lending process.
RBI then transforms those results into internal steering impulses according to financial, risk, and operational needs. RBI and
consequently RBHU Group set targets and prioritize our resource allocation by reducing relations with businesses not meeting
our environmental and economical parameters. This helps us both achieving our ambitions and realizing opportunities at the
same time.
The sectoral strategies are the tool for the steering process. In Phase 1, we classified customers and transactions in three
clusters: “restrictive” designates candidates earmarked for termination in case transition is not achieved; “transformative”
designates customers that support our transformation with new loans meeting our sustainability criteria (they account for the
main part of the portfolio); supportive is for customers already green. In Phase 2 we plan to design engagement criteria and
quantitative targets. The credit policy and the lending process are included in the steering process. The credit policy currently
reflects the minimum ESG criteria and guidelines in accordance with the latest ESG risk developments. The lending process
includes ESG-relevant aspects in the “three lines of defence”-model for the corporate segment.
Sustainable financing
Providing sustainable financing generates added value for our customers and a wide range of activities for society that are
suited to sustainable financing. The Bank describes financing as being sustainable when it has a long-term positive impact on
the environment and climate and/or on societal and social issues, and when it supports the attainment of the Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs). More specifically, the definition of a sustainable transaction is based on the EU Taxonomy
Regulation and on RBHU Group’s ESG Rulebook (basis: RBI’s ESG Rulebook) definition for green and social. The eligibility criteria
of the listed frameworks differ in terms of complexity and precision.
The total volume of sustainable financing (limited to financing with a positive impact on the environment and the climate and
ESG-linked financing) for corporate and institutional customers at RBHU Group and its subsidiaries in 2024 was around €574
million as of 31 December 2024. Of this amount, customers have utilized financing lines amounting to €541 million. In addition,
there was an unutilized line of sustainable financing of nearly €33 million.

but rather strives for sectoral strategies that reflect its leading role in banking. Therefore, aligned to the RBI Group practice
RBHU Group included Real Estate & Construction as part of its sectoral policy with the main goal of defining the categories for
the transition to green economy.
The policy defines engagement criteria based on ESG clusters and provides EAD portfolio targets for 2025 and 2030 for
Construction, and 2025 for Real Estate. In order to monitor those targets, a Power Bi monitoring tool was developed which
shows the portfolio distribution and in case of deviation from the targets, notifies the relevant stakeholders (e.g. Industry Lead,
Sustainable Finance) and negotiates paths with these parties to solve the breach.
In 2024, the volume of financing utilized at RBHU Group in the area of sustainable real estate was nearly € 250 million as of 31
December. Moreover, sustainable real estate finance is one of the most important asset categories in the volume of finance
with a positive impact on the environment and climate with 43% of the total.
Renewable energy, energy efficiency and electrification
The 2023 World Energy Transition Outlook (World Energy Transitions Outlook 2023: 1.5°C Pathway (irena.org)), explicitly
identified renewable energy, energy efficiency, and electrification as key transition drivers, broadly enabled by the
technological advancements of renewable energy production capacities. Moreover, it highlights that even though considerable
progress has been made in the past decade, financing institutions should further prioritize supporting the construction of such
infrastructure.
Based on an increasing RBI Group portfolio base and RBI Group business pipeline of applicable projects and customer capex
investments, there is a substantial business case arising for RBI Group’s carbon transition to Net Zero 2050. For RBHU Group
most opportunities originate around renewable energy, energy efficiency, and electrification.
Renewable energy
Renewable energy consists of solar, wind (onshore and offshore), hydro and rooftop solar. The build out of renewable energy
production will contribute an estimated 25% to global CO2 reduction. An estimated annual deployment of ca. 1000 GW of
renewable power is required to stay on a 1.5°C pathway (according to World Energy Transitions Outlook 2023: 1.5°C Pathway
(irena.org)).
In 2024, the volume of financing committed to renewable energy investment projects by RBHU Group was € 175 million as of 31
December 2024 which, alongside a solid pipeline and significant demand growth expected, provides a good basis for future
business development.
Key steps to further increase the renewable energy business segment are to increase RBHU Group’s track record with
established relationship customers and undertake the financing of projects under newly implemented regulatory regimes like
onshore wind financing.
As this is an ongoing process there are not specific time horizons defined for completing this action.
Electrification
In focus are Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), public transport (EV fleet), EV charging infrastructure, electricity grids,
electric utilities, and adjacent industries. Broad electrification of transport and industrial processes will contribute to an
estimated 19% of global CO2 reduction. Electrification is set to become the main energy carrier, accounting for 50% of total
final energy consumption by 2050.
To enable the electrification value chain, RBHU Group is actively looking into opportunities from battery production to BESS
projects and to continue the cooperation with RBHU Group’s industry specialists, specifically for automotive. Contributing to
the accelerating growth of a potentially booming BESS market are falling production costs, especially of lithium-ion batteries,
which despite substantial R&D working on alternatives, are still the dominating technology.
As this is an ongoing process there are not specific time horizons defined for completing this action.
Retail banking
RBHU Group aims to further increase new green loan sales to private individuals and small-business customers, and therefore
advise our customers on the possibility of green mortgage loans (secured by real estate and are made available exclusively to
finance or refinance, in whole or in part, new and/or existing transactions with a specific use of proceeds as defined by the
framework for Green and Social Loans included in the local Credit Policies).

Prevention of greenwashing and negative ESG impacts
To tackle the topics of negative ESG impacts and greenwashing prevention within the sustainable finance transactions, RBHU
Group has implemented different processes, which include the ESG Expert Opinion and the Greenwashing Prevention Check.
RBHU Group also conforms to the exclusion list (established on RBI Group level) of all corporate activities in which RBHU Group
does not wish to be involved.
ESG expert opinion
An ESG expert opinion is prepared for particularly critical customers, but specifically for critical projects. The ESG expert opinion
evaluates the ESG impact of the transaction at project and company level and assesses its impact on the environment and
social issues. It also includes a qualitative assessment and presents a conclusion on whether or not the transaction should be
pursued from an ESG impact point of view. Consequently, the ESG expert opinion provides decision makers with more detailed
information and enables them to consider ESG impacts in their lending decisions. It therefore plays a key role in preventing
negative impacts from an ESG perspective. The assessment in the ESG expert opinion takes the following aspects into account:
industry impact based on the Principles for Responsible Banking (PRB) Impact Radar; company- and project-related negative
impact on key sustainability issues and their mitigation measures; past and current controversies and incidents; the legal
environment (i.e. whether high environmental and social standards are ensured through EU regulations).
For critical cases, the ESG expert opinion is issued by RBI AG’s Sustainable Finance department with the contributions of local
ESG experts. To formalize and standardize the process, an ESG expert opinion tool has been set up internally and a workshop
was held to train local ESG experts on how to write an ESG expert opinion and how to navigate through the tool. Follow-up
trainings will be established.
Greenwashing prevention check
RBHU Group has established a process to prevent greenwashing and has rolled it out as part of the RBHU Group ESG Rulebook.
Under the greenwashing prevention check, RBHU Group commits to certain internal process steps, which must be complied
with in the event of a sustainable transaction with a customer. In particular, local ESG experts are involved in the bid phase, the
decision phase and the execution phase of a sustainable financing transaction with the external support of RBI AG’s
Sustainable Finance team if necessary. The greenwashing prevention check focuses on the structure of sustainable financial
products, including products that are designated as green, social, sustainability-linked or similar. For the definitions of
sustainable business transactions, standards such as the Loan Markets Association guidelines, the ICMA Principles and the EU
Taxonomy Regulation were applied. These are used for qualification and (de)flagging of business transactions and form the
basis for the greenwashing prevention process. In other words, the greenwashing prevention check is a precondition for RBHU
Group’s involvement in sustainable finance products. The check is applied for all sustainable finance products. By involving the
local ESG experts in ESG transactions, RBHU Group provides a further supervisory body to minimize greenwashing risks and
contribute to greenwashing prevention.
Raising awareness – supporting the local business units
It is key to raise awareness of ESG-related topics in the business units, to build up ESG knowledge internally and to ensure
efficient cooperation within the RBI Group. Accordingly, Corporate ESG Ambassadors have been established in all the subsidiary
banks in Central and Eastern Europe, including the subsidiary bank in Hungary. The primary objectives of the network are to
pass on knowledge and information between head office and RBHU Group, to advertise ESG activities for corporate customers
in Hungary and to support these companies so that they can leverage the opportunities available to them in the area of ESG
megatrends and combat global climate change to the greatest possible extent, as well as updating and educating local
relationship managers on latest developments in ESG. Local ESG Ambassadors regularly participate at the business-specific
trainings provided by Head office on subjects such as EU taxonomy compliance, ICMA bond standards, current developments,
circular economy, as well as on the various ESG and sustainability-related products. In addition, RBHU Group’s local ESG
Ambassadors participate on monthly update calls held with the Corporate ESG Ambassadors in order to maintain a dialog on
ESG topics. Through this close cooperation, we are able to maintain and foster the RBI Group standard for day-to-day business
on the subject of sustainable financing.
The actions - described in E1-3/Value chain chapter - scope covers the segments impacted by the Bank’s financial services.
The actions - described in E1-3/Value chain chapter - do not require significant capital expenditures.
Own operations
A variety of options are available to enhance sustainability within the company. At RBHU Group, these range from building
management and energy reduction measures, to increasing the share of material recycled and staging information campaigns
for employees. The actions taken to increase the sustainability of own operations varies across RBHU Group, as it is within the
local sustainability management’s expertise to inform which actions will have the biggest impact.

Our primary targets include among others the continuous reduction of RBHU Group's carbon footprint. From 2022 onwards, we
have started quantifying it and setting specific targets to help achieve this objective. An overview of a few key actions as well
as their implementation for 2025-2026, can be found below:
· Purchasing green electricity for both the AGORA Headquarters and branch offices:
· During the procurement of electricity, we strive to ensure that at least 30% of the electricity purchased for
RBHU Group comes from certified renewable energy sources. This step is crucial in proportionately reducing
greenhouse gas emissions from electricity producers.
· Establishing selective waste collection in the Bank’s branch network:
· The selective waste collection system implemented at the AGORA headquarters is very popular among
employees. Based on the experiences gained so far, we plan to introduce selective waste collection in suitable
branch offices, contributing to the expansion and operation of a circular economy.
· Purchasing electric vehicles for the Bank’s fleet:
· In 2024, we acquired 16 new EVs through grant support, which will help reduce the CO2 emissions of RBHU
Group’s road fleet. Leveraging these experiences, we aim to create further opportunities to green the RBHU
Group fleet in 2025.
· Installing new solar parks in selected branches:
· Since its commissioning in 2022, the 50 kWp solar park installed on the Raiffeisen Bank Service Center building
has generated approximately 64.39 MWh of energy, preventing 29.29 tons of CO2 emissions. Based on this
success, we have initially selected two branches where the conditions (location, required energy amount,
permits) allow for the installation of additional solar systems.
· Continuing branch lighting upgrades (LED Installation):
· With each redesign, new branches are renovated every year, replacing the old lighting systems with new LED-
based lighting.

E1-4: Targets related to climate change mitigation and adaptation
Value chain
Lending portfolio (non-financial corporations)
The RBHU Group’s financed emissions targets are at the first stage set for non-financial corporations and are in accordance
with RBI Group’s approach.
The backbone of net-zero emissions is the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change
(the IPCC). Financial institutions should establish their emission reduction targets in line with category C1 of the AR6, i.e., 1.5°C
pathway with no or limited overshoot. The RBHU Group’s approach, adhering to the RBI Group’s approach for setting targets
involved the following considerations, guidelines, and components: in order to set science-based targets and be compatible
with limiting global warming to 1.5°C, RBI considered a diverse range of climate scenarios to detect relevant environmental,
societal, technology, market and policy-related developments and determine decarbonization levers. RBI also considered the
Emissions Gap Report (2023) by the United Nations Environment Programme as a part of the framework. Accordingly,
Nationally Determined Contributions in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and National Energy and
Climate Plans of the EU Commission repositories were examined. National pledges demonstrate the decarbonization paths of
countries as declared by themselves. RBI compared national pledges to net zero pathways and noticed that in most cases,
national pledges are less ambitious than net zero scenario decarbonization pathways. In such cases, RBI applied net zero
scenario reduction pathways to ensure that the pathways are followed in line with net-zero projections.
Two main approaches exist for setting financed emissions targets: the overarching target, also known as the Absolute
Contraction Approach (ACA) and the Sectoral Decarbonization Approach (SDA). The ACA (overarching target) is a one-size-fits-
all approach that enables companies to deliver their absolute emissions values in line with global decarbonization pathways,
while the SDA entails carbon-intensity metrics. Both approaches have own benefits and limitations. As a starting point, RBI
opted for the ACA and set an overarching target for the non-financial corporations’ portfolio in line with the 1.5°C pathway.
Following its rigorous research and exploration of scientific/academic writings and practices applied for decarbonization, and
after reading through climate scenarios and pathways, RBI inferred that several scenarios do not provide GHG data whereas
CSRD require undertakings to disclose their values in GHG. As a PCAF signatory, RBI discloses its financed emissions in GHG
(CO2e), and therefore, scenarios including GHG are of priority.
The scenario RBI has chosen is the Net Zero Orderly Transition scenario of the Network for Greening the Financial System
(NGFS). The NGFS, a group of central banks and supervisors, develops their scenarios phase-by-phase, and RBI applied their
scenario of the current phase (Phase 4). To note, the NGFS provides several scenarios that include different projections such as
delayed transition, well below 2°C, etc. RBI’s choice, in line with the 1.5°C pathway requirement, has been the Net Zero Orderly
Transition scenario which is an ambitious scenario that limits global warming to 1.4°C in line with AR6 of the IPCC. At the time
of the IPCC AR6, the NGFS scenario, then having its phase 2, was an acceptable scenario as referenced by the IPCC. Phase 4,
published in late 2023, follows the same structures while offering more granularity. In addition, the International Monetary
Fund, in cooperation with the NGFS, curated NGFS phase 4 scenarios and published them at their climate change dashboard.
This enabled a country-specific view of the GHG emissions as a combination of CO2 and non-CO2 emissions (non-CO2 emissions
are other gases under the Kyoto Protocol in NGFS). GHG gases, in addition to carbon dioxide include Kyoto gases under both the
NGFS scenario and PCAF standards.
The NGFS scenario draws upon integrated assessment models. Integrated assessment models (IAM) are scientific models that
provide links to societal structures, economic facts and projections, and they also take biosphere and atmosphere into
account. This synthesizing approach is based on human-earth interplay. Hence, although RBI considered the granularity of the
SDA on specific sectors, it opted for an overarching target based on the NGFS scenario due to an extensive lack of other
industries under the current SDA framework and inadequate information about GHG guidance. It should also be noted that the
NGFS scenarios, in themselves, and as stated by the NGFS, consist of sectoral granularity to an extent that is above average
compared to other scenarios assessed by the IPCC AR6 (see NGFS scenarios, p.4). The main categories under the integrated
assessment models are energy industries, transportation, and buildings. As is the case with several other scenarios, the NGFS
scenario, too, projects immediate action and significant changes to the energy mix. The scenario’s immediacy can be noticed
through the sharper decreases projected by 2030 and 2035, having a time path until 2050 where net zero scenarios are to
provide 0 or lower net CO2. Furthermore, RBI will continue to explore sectoral approaches, also keeping its stance that they will
extend and develop further. In RBI’s case, although it assumes alignment of the portfolio with country-specific
macroeconomics, ACA fits the case for the beginning of this dynamic process as RBI’s portfolio does not carry significant
exposures in sensitive industries such as thermal coal and oil upstream. RBI’s baseline year has been determined as the last
year of its financed emissions disclosure, and the data used was the NGFS scenario curated by the International Monetary
Fund in order to apply the decarbonization path toward the target year 2030.
Pursuant to these considerations and having the possibility to have country-specific data, RBI applied global decarbonization
paths based on the portfolio approach, as the underlying modelling entails the above-mentioned sectoral consideration. This
cross-sectoral approach enabled RBI to project its GHG emissions for the target year in line with the 1.5°C pathway required by
CSRD. These levers are expected to contribute to achieving RBI’s GHG emissions reduction target in line with group policies, as
they reflect cross-sectoral projections on the basis of weighted exposure. RBHU Group sets the targets as 17.11 per cent
financed emissions reductions for its non-financial corporations portfolio.

While setting the target, the Bank involved all stakeholders such as Corporate Business, Risk Management, and the sustainable
finance team, and finally its Board of Management approved these targets. RBI Group and the local RBHU Group aimed to
follow best practices and knowledge in the industry through this approach as RBI noticed that physical emission intensities,
although widely used, do not guarantee the same percentage of decrease in financed emissions that employ a different metric
(kgCO2e/t Euro). This might lead to an unprecedented outcome such as non-decreasing or inadequately decreasing financed
emissions while even physical emissions or their intensities flow as projected. Another risk point is the volatility and non-
comparability of the Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials (PCAF) standards to date. Nonetheless, as a financial
institution, the Bank is aware that it has to work on that basis despite such proneness to volatility in current standards.
As the scenarios for decarbonization do not provide specific guidance for scopes other than scope 1(e.g. IEA NZE 2050), the
Bank, in line with RBI’s approach, applied a pro-rata decarbonization share for the other scopes. The RBHU Group also considers
that scope 3 is more vulnerable to volatility and double counting; in that respect, targets are set including scope 1 and scope 2
currently. The RBHU Group will continue its development of sectoral approaches which are used for internal steering particular
to the non-financial corporations portfolio.
Pursuant to the target setting disclosed in line with the 1.5°C pathway under the IPCC and in line with CSRD provisions, the
RBHU Group will track and report its financed emissions and their intensity (in tCO2e/mn€) in the next years to disclose how the
portfolio is developing based on the initial settings towards the target year 2030. The Bank commits to the above-mentioned
target level if no material adverse change happens.

It should be noted that the targets set attribute to covered emissions for the non-financial corporations lending portfolio (see
Section E1-6). For the 2023 baseline year, scope 1 and scope 2 total financed emissions for the lending portfolio of the non-
financial corporations were: 778,074 kgCO2e. The relevant financed emission intensity for 2023 was: 273 tCO2e/mn €.
Hence, the 2030 financed emissions intensity as target is: 227 tCO2e/mn € (2030 absolute financed emissions: 645,801 kgCO2e).
For the calculations of the base year the PCAF database from September 2024 was considered.
Retail mortgage loans
RBI Group HO has centrally started to calculate the baseline of the emissions for the year 2024; this includes residential real
estate. This will serve as a basis for RBHU Group future plans, regarding emission target setting. However, before setting a
target, we deem a monitoring period of at least one year necessary, engaging with the stakeholders and thoroughly
understanding the drivers as well as well as uncertainties in the data, in order to ensure the stability and consistency of the
methodology and the results. In light of these points, we shall set targets in 2025.

Value chain
Since 2020, RBI has calculated and published its Scope 3 category 15 financed GHG emissions, i.e. the indirect downstream
emissions associated with its lending and investment activities. RBHU Group was part of the centrally calculated Scope 3
emission figures but has not been disclosed on individual basis until year-end 2024. This has been an important step in
identifying sectors on which to focus its efforts to mitigate the negative impact on the environment of its customers’ activities.
RBHU Group was part of the centrally calculated Scope 3 emission figures but has not disclosed on individual basis until year-
end 2024.
The methodology applied is based on the PCAF standard – the most widely accepted, GHG Protocol-compliant standard for
financed emissions calculations. For the 2024 year-end publication, the scope of calculations was enlarged by including the
following for the first time, compared to previously reported information of RBI Group:
· Scope 3 emissions from all sectors were taken in account when calculating the RBHU Group’s financed emissions in
order to account for the indirect upstream and downstream emissions of RBI’s customers in accordance with the
recommendation of the PCAF standard.
· A first estimation of financed emissions associated with the mortgage asset class.
· PCAF parameters from September 2024, including the inflation adjustment effect, have been used for the year-end
2024 financed emissions calculation for corporate exposures. Additionally, year-end 2023 financed emissions values
and emission intensities for corporate exposures have been recalculated using the same updated PCAF parameters
to ensure comparability of results across both reporting periods.
· When calculating Sovereign emissions, calculation was adjusted so that it accounts for the impact of the purchasing
power parity.
· Results are based on the IFRS scope of consolidation.
An overview of the PCAF asset classes in scope for the year-end 2024 calculations is provided below, with an indication of the
coverage achieved in each asset class. Coverage of less than 100 per cent is the result of data gaps or due to financed
emissions calculations according to the PCAF not being applicable to a specific asset category.

In total, the Bank’s financed GHG emissions calculations covered 70 per cent of its total assets. Covered exposures are defined
as those gross carrying amounts which could be mapped to PCAF asset classes and for which calculation of financed
emissions was performed successfully. PCAF asset classes cover exposures to loans and advances, debt securities and equity
not held for trading from central banks, credit institutions, other financial corporations, non-financial corporations and
household mortgage loans. The PCAF standard sets out requirements for determining the portion of customers’ emissions that
can be attributed to a financial institution. Customer-specific GHG emissions data was used in the calculation where available.
This data allowed a more precise assessment of financed emissions, but availability was still limited. RBI and alongside RBHU
Group conducted an extensive data collection exercise in an effort to constantly improve the quality of their calculations.
Estimates for customer scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions were derived using emission factors, representing average (physical or
economic activity-based) emissions intensity values for specific industries and countries. The main source of emission factors
was the PCAF database.
The PCAF asset class of vehicle loans, which are non-material to RBI’s overall portfolio, was outside the scope of the
calculations.
Avoided emissions were reported separately and were not added in total financed emissions; in line with the GHG Protocol,
there was no netting with positive emissions from the portfolio. As the name suggests, avoided emissions are those that were
avoided by investing in renewable energy projects, compared to the emissions that would have been created in the absence of
the respective project.
The PCAF parameters from September 2024 were applied in the financed emissions calculation. The value for the PCAF data
quality score, a measure of the quality of data used to estimate financed emissions, shows a weighted average of 4 (on a scale
of 1 to 5, where 1 is the highest, 5 is the lowest of the quality). Further details regarding data quality are provided in the table
below showing the results of the calculation on the level of the PCAF asset classes.
Sovereign emissions were calculated according to the PCAF standard using emission factors available in the PCAF emission
factor database. Sovereign scope 1 production financed emissions were disclosed twice, in line with the PCAF requirements,
with the first calculation including the net effect of the land use, land use change, and forestry sectors, while this effect was
excluded in the second calculation. The results obtained amounted to 0.85 million tons of CO2e if the net effect of Land Use,
Land-Use Change, and Forestry (LULUCF) was included, and 0.96 million tons of CO2e if these sectors were excluded. Emission
factors were primarily sourced from the PCAF database and represent the emission intensity of the countries’ respective
economies (GDP expressed in purchasing power parity terms). The high data quality score achieved reflected the good quality
of the underlying data, obtained directly from the GHG inventories that countries are required to regularly maintain. It is also
important to highlight that, to some extent, the sovereign emissions can be expected to overlap with those of the RBHU
Group’s corporate portfolio, provided that activities at the source of the corporate emissions are located in countries and
sectors covered by the national GHG inventories. Therefore, the emissions of the asset class sovereign debt are not included in
the total sums of financed emissions in the following tables (e.g. Financed emissions by PCAF asset classes, Total greenhouse
gas emissions in detail etc.) to avoid double counting of uncertain magnitude. The financed emissions of the asset class
sovereign debt are transparently reported below the line total.

The table above shows the results of RBHU Group’s financed emissions calculations including customers’ scope 3 emissions for
the PCAF asset classes business loans and unlisted equity, listed equity and corporate bonds, and project finance. The Bank
would like to highlight that the scope 3 financed emissions imply double counting of emissions in a bank’s own portfolio. This is
because some of the Bank’s customers’ scope 3 emissions will already be accounted for in the scope 1 and 2 of other
customers in cases where the latter has been part of the former’s value chain – either upstream (as suppliers) or downstream
(as customers).
The RBI Group and the RBHU Group as well has been striving to stabilize the data quality, calculation framework and scope of
own financed emission calculations. The Bank also understands that measure of PCAF data quality and stability of financed
emissions results have not been exclusively driven by own efforts, but also reflect the soundness and comprehensiveness of
the data the Bank depends on, namely customers’ own disclosures and external databases. We expect corporate disclosures to
progressively converge towards best practice and provide the most comprehensive coverage, supported by the improved
harmonization of reporting requirements.
The table below shows the distribution of financed emissions by NACE sector classification within PCAF asset classes of
business loans and unlisted equity, listed equity and corporate bonds, project finance, and commercial real estate.

ESRS 2 SBM-3: Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with
strategy and business model
Materiality assessment of social risks
In addition to the climate and environmental materiality assessment, the overall ESG risk assessment also includes social risks.
By conducting a thorough materiality assessment of social risks, organizations can better understand and manage the social
factors that are critical to their long-term success and sustainability. The social component was classified as material for the
2024 RBHU Group impact assessment. Qualitatively, the counterparty social risk was assessed as Low to Moderate. This
qualitative low to moderate risk was documented, as the assessment and management of social risk are integral to the
internal ESG framework.
Positive and negative impacts (own operations)
The RBI group strategic roadmap for 2024 and 2025 includes a dedicated pillar on people and culture. Our people and culture
pillar includes strategic initiatives aimed at developing conscious and effective leaders, fostering a collaborative and
customer-centric culture, ensuring we have the right capabilities for both present and future needs, maintaining sustainable
reward and recognition systems, positioning ourselves as an authentic and distinctive employer, and providing meaningful
career and growth opportunities.
The banking sector operates in a strictly regulated environment and there is high demand for highly skilled professionals who
are capable of successfully completing their tasks. Having satisfied and motivated employees is key, however as a learning
organization RBHU Group understands that the development of the employees is essential to maintaining high standards.
Working conditions – secure employment
Regarding working conditions, RBHU Group acknowledges their importance for high employee satisfaction. The nature of the
employment relationship can significantly impact health, influencing factors such as stress levels and work-life balance.
Currently, at 95% of RBHU Group's active employees are employed under permanent contracts.
To bring in specialized expertise and manage short-term workforce needs for project-related tasks, RBHU Group may enter
into contracts with non-employees. For cost optimization and sustainability purposes, non-employees are often transitioned to
permanent contracts.
RBHU Group also provides opportunities for internship contracts, initially limited to a maximum period of six months, with the
possibility of extension. While RBHU Group often offers permanent contracts for junior positions to interns, such offers are
subject to business needs and cannot be guaranteed.
RBHU Group complies with all legal requirements regarding working time and recognizes the benefits of flexible working hours.
Flexible working hours help to increase employee satisfaction and have positive effects on health.
Health
RBHU Group operates Employee Well-being Initiatives and programs contributing to the overall health and well-being of our
employees. These initiatives aim to promote physical, mental, and emotional well-being by ensuring a safe work environment
through the implementation of safety protocols, regular safety training, and compliance with occupational health and safety
regulations.
RBHU Group provides comprehensive health insurance for employees, including medical and vision care. We also offer
preventive health services, health screenings to help reduce the risk of illness and injury, recognizing the importance of
proactive health management.

Adequate wages
RBHU Group aims to attract and retain a motivated and qualified workforce by providing competitive compensation aligned
with local market trends. The value of work is assessed based on professional knowledge, business perspective, leadership role,
organizational impact, and other job-required competencies. Our job evaluations are conducted using gender-neutral criteria
to prevent any form of discrimination.
Employee involvement
RBHU Group management believes engaged and enabled employees are more motivated and efficient, leading to higher
productivity and better performance. When employees feel engaged and supported in their roles, they experience greater job
satisfaction, which can reduce turnover rate and the costs associated with hiring and training new staff.
Engaged employees are also more likely to contribute ideas and solutions, fostering a culture of innovation and continuous
improvement. By focusing on engagement and enablement, we aim to build a positive, supportive workplace culture that can
attract top talent and enhance the company's reputation.
To ensure employees' voices are heard, we conduct an annual engagement survey. The results are analysed and discussed with
lower managerial levels to identify and address development opportunities. While RBHU Group is committed to fostering
employee engagement and involvement, the effectiveness of these initiatives and their outcomes may vary.
Equal treatment and opportunities for all
At RBHU Group, we are committed to fostering an environment where all employees are treated fairly and without
discrimination. Our aim is to ensure that all employees have access to opportunities for hiring, promotion, training, and
development based on merit. We create a workplace culture where all employees feel respected and valued. We are dedicated
to maintaining a work environment where harassment and bullying are not tolerated, and where employees feel safe and
supported.
Other work-related rights
At RBHU Group, we understand that data security and privacy are fundamental to protecting the autonomy, dignity, and
freedom of our employees. Our commitment to data privacy reflects our dedication to ethical principles and respect for
individual rights.
Financial risks
While there are currently no short-term material financial effects of sustainability matters related to RBHU Group's own
workforce and we believe if the followings focus topics are effectively managed, those can further contribute to a stable,
motivated, and productive workforce, which is crucial for long-term financial success and can support a positive and
sustainable work environment:
· Continuously monitoring and improve ineffective labour practices
· focusing on retention, proactively using preventive action to minimize attrition
· Maintaining high productivity by focusing on employee satisfaction, motivation, and health
· Continuous development of employees to maintain skilled and competitive workforce.

Cross-metric methods and significant assumptions
For the calculation of the metrics in the following disclosure tables (from S1-6 to S1-17), only units with more than 100
employees were considered. The measurement of the parameters has not been validated by any external party other than the
entity responsible for the quality assurance of the non-financial statement. The figures were reported as headcounts either as
of the reporting date or for a period. Where it was possible to provide either point-in-time values or average values, point-in-
time values were disclosed. In this section, we present factual data sourced from the RBHU Group HR systems, as well as data
derived from these facts. No estimates were employed in the preparation of the data tables.

S1-16: Remuneration metrics (pay gap and total remuneration)
On 30 March 2023, the European Parliament adopted Directive 2023/970 on pay transparency, the main objective of which is to
ensure the right of women and men to equal pay for equal work or work of equal value by increasing pay transparency and
institutionalizing enforcement mechanisms related thereto.
Member States are required to transpose the provisions of the Directive into their national laws by 7 June 2026. The Hungarian
legal system has not yet implemented the measures of the Directive but has formulated certain expectations in a
recommendation. The average pay levels between male and female employees were determined based on the methodology
described in point 52 of Hungarian National Bank’s recommendation 4/2022 (IV.8.).

account packages, payment services, personal loan, mortgage loans and investment products). In Hungary, RBHU Group

products and services for personal use, either for themselves or for others, and not for professional purposes, including private
individuals who will potentially become customers of RBHU Group. BHU has customers of all ages and from all types of socio-
economic background.

associated necessary data protection requirements.
ESRS 2 SBM-3 material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with
strategy and business model
Information-related impacts
Impacts regarding privacy and cyber security & resilience
A strategy and a framework with guidelines and standards to ensure the protection goals of confidentiality, integrity, and
availability of information and systems are defined, approved and their implementation within the RBHU Group is managed
and monitored. The strategy, the framework of guidelines and standards, as well as the defined technical and organizational
measures to achieve the protection goals are regularly reviewed to appropriately address current threat situations, technical
developments, and external requirements, and to manage and minimize risks that affect the company as well as its customers
and users. 
We are aware of the fact that the positive or negative perceptions of customers and users regarding information security,
resilience, and data protection can impact the trust in the financial sector as well as digital services overall. Therefore essential
for the functioning of the financial market locally or internationally, as well as for meeting the basic needs of customers, end
users, and corporate clients.
The security strategy and measures are regularly reviewed and adjusted to appropriately address identified security threats
and risks.
The following negative impacts could result from security incidents or weaknesses in the information security management
system on individuals, groups of individuals, or society:
· Reputational damage could lead to a loss of trust in financial services or digital products
· Unauthorized access to confidential information and misuse of such information could lead to fraud and financial
losses
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
Consolidated non-financial statement
151
· Incidents or unavailability of systems and services could lead to legal consequences or fines/penalties
· Unavailability of systems and data could result in customers being unable to use our services.
A solid information security management system ensures trust in financial institutions, a well-functioning financial market, and
digital services provided by the bank. Secure, resilient, and reliable business processes and associated systems reduce the
likelihood and impact of security incidents.
Financial institutions in general are attractive targets for cyberattacks due to the financial assets they manage and the
sensitive customer data they hold.
Attempted attacks and security incidents occur frequently in a large bank (time horizon: short-term). Due to the implemented
measures, only a few of these incidents negatively affect customers. The positive impacts of a secure, resilient, and reliable
company have both immediate and long-term effects on customers, groups of individuals, and society (time horizon: short-
and medium-term).
Both, business activities and business relationships (suppliers, contractors, business partners, etc.) impact information security
risk and potential effects on customers. Therefore, RBHU Group seeks to manage information security risks and reduce impacts
through security measures.
We consider our goal of providing customers with secure, resilient, and reliable services, and ensuring the responsible handling
of personal data, as one of the most important prerequisites for building and maintaining customer relationships.
No specific impacts related to information security and cyber security could be identified for specific groups. A consistently
high level of security is applied to all financial services offered, ensuring the protection of information.
In 2024, 1 low level incident related to information security were reported, no impact on confidentiality, integrity or availability.
Impacts regarding Freedom of expression 
Freedom of Expression is a fundamental human right which plays a crucial role in creating an open space for dialogue, learning
and innovation within RBHU Group. External and internal stakeholders speaking their mind does not only empower customers
to voice complaints and concerns, but also enables the refinement of business strategies and models. This dynamic
strengthens consumer trust and drives long-term success and resilience in a competitive business landscape.
Regarding freedom of expression, i.e. the freedom for our consumers/customers to speak up and to be heard, having a
functioning complaint management system is an important prerequisite. Furthermore, the collection of customer feedback
and a customer satisfaction analysis are needed.
Impacts regarding Access to (quality) information
Access to (quality) information is described as the right to be informed about the quality, quantity, potency, purity, standard,
and price of goods, which is crucial for protecting consumers against unfair trade practices.
We strive to build a digital bank with a human touch. The human touch is our capability to humanize all experiences, by making
them personal, relevant, and rewarding. We aim to enable our customers to manage their financial life and fulfil their financial
needs anywhere, anytime. We assist & educate our customers with the transition to digital self-service across all channels (in
branch, in call centers, in app).
RBHU Group actively promotes an understanding of financial products and services and imparts banking expertise as part of
its day-to-day advisory role. The nature of its core business means it has close links with the subject of financial education, i.e.
the competent handling of money and financial matters, also known as financial literacy.
In order to ensure good quality of information, sufficient training opportunities for the sales staff, with regards to knowledge
and personal responsibility has to be provide.
Bad access and/or bad quality of information can include damage to trust, financial harm to customers, insufficient
competence and risk assessment in the capital market, erroneous investment decisions, specific foreign exchange issues, all
either resulting in financial burdens for customers and/or potential over-indebtedness of private customers.

Consolidated non-financial statement
On the other hand, our positive impacts on consumers involve better comparability of products and services, easier decision-
making, customer education, and reduced uncertainty and complaints. Well informed and well-educated customers are
important for our business.
Financial education is a powerful tool that can help individuals make informed decisions about their money, leading to greater
financial stability and security. By providing our customers with financial tips and resources, we can empower them to take
control of their financial futures. This not only helps them, but also helps our bank by creating more financially stable
customers. Moreover, promoting financial literacy is a key component of responsible banking. 
On the investment side especially, high transparency, such as accurate and complete product labelling including cost
breakdowns, forms the basis for customers to make informed investment decisions. On the loan side, customers´ financial
education and improved comparability of products and services and receiving good explanations of the possible risks
associated with products or services, and appropriate information on topics such as risk reduction also need to be well
understood and are a prerequisite for a customer’s ability to repay a loan.
Both the negative and the positive impacts described above, short and medium term, originate from RBHU Group’s business
model and are inherent to the business of banking and financial services, including asset management, which can have a
significant impact on consumers´ lives.
Access to (quality) information is key to understand the consequences of financial decisions. This means that we have to adapt
our materials for their special needs.
Social inclusion-related impacts
Impacts regarding non-discrimination
We treat all our customers respectfully, acknowledging that there are vulnerable groups who need our special attention like
consumers with impairments who depend on a barrier-free access.
Being financially included has a direct positive impact on vulnerable groups like people with disabilities, low incomes or who are
in financial need, because it makes a great difference for each of them and provides the same chances for all.
Having no access to the financial system could lead to reduced chances and financial disadvantages and end in social
exclusion. 
Private individuals that are likely to be affected by discrimination are categorized as vulnerable group.
Impacts regarding non-discrimination and access to products and services
RBHU Group provides services to around ~450.000 private customers in Hungary, offering a broad product range (e.g. account
packages, payment services, personal loan, mortgage loans and investment products).
By guaranteeing a reliable and secure infrastructure, RBHU Group plays a contributory role in safeguarding the stability and
integrity of the financial system, protecting the digital economy from threats and further reinforcing the trust of its customers.
We leverage technology and financial expertise to innovate and design exceptional digital experiences for all our customers
Our foremost commitment is to deliver unparalleled client experiences and to build a digital bank with a human touch.
In general, digitalization makes it much easier to access products and services. Thus, we strive to remove another barrier to our
products and services.
We treat all our customers respectfully, acknowledging that there are vulnerable groups who need our special attention.
Consumers with impairments who can’t use our products and services because they have no access to the branch need our
support in creating barrier-free access.
Impacts regarding responsible marketing practices
Responsible marketing practices covers marketing communication of products and services through media channels in a way

Financial risks
Risks connected to privacy, cyber security and resilience
Failure of the bank to prevent customer privacy breaches could lead to regulatory fines and sanctions for non-compliance with
data protection regulations, as well as expenses relating to lawsuits. Additionally, a loss of trust and credibility as well as
negative media coverage could lead customer losses, which would result in yield losses. Further, expenses could arise relating
to operational costs of investigating breaches, notifying affected customers, and implementing remediation measures. Finally,
customers prefer banks that ensure higher data protection and information security standards.
Risks connected to access to quality information
Failure of the bank to provide access to quality information to customers could lead to regulatory fines and sanctions for non-
compliance with EU consumer protection, as well as expenses relating to lawsuits. Expenses relating to lawsuits could also be
incurred due to product mis-selling or failure to disclose essential product information. 
Additionally, a loss of clients who switch to competitors offering clearer and more reliable information could result in reduced
revenues. Furthermore, failure of the bank to support the financial literacy of all customer groups could lead to a higher
likelihood of customers mismanaging their finances, leading to increased loan defaults and credit losses. Finally, increased
customer service expenses to handle complaints and inquiries due to unclear product information could lead to operational
inefficiencies.

S4-3- Processes to remediate impacts and channels for consumers and end-users to
raise concerns
Information – and social inclusion-related remediation processes
If RBHU Group has failed to fully meet customer expectations, consumers and end-users can address their complaints via
various channels. In line with RBHU Group’s internal rules (see also the Customer Complaint Management Policy), all potential
complaints, expressed as dissatisfaction addressed to the bank or its employees, must be examined to determine whether
they meet the definition of a complaint. Negative impacts identified through customer complaint channels must be directed to
the appropriate units in accordance with customer complaint handling procedures. Complaints must be documented
immediately in RBHU Group’s complaint management system, and the person who registered the complaint must be notified
of its receipt and the next steps in handling the complaint. The next step involves consulting the affected department(s) or
employee(s) to determine whether the content of the complaint is objectively justified. The result of this analysis must be
immediately communicated to the person who registered the complaint and documented in the complaint management
system. Additionally, the department responsible for handling the complaint must examine the causes. The Board of Directors
and the Supervisory Board must be informed of the latest developments in complaint management at regular intervals. By the
end of each reporting period, measures to mitigate the root causes of major complaints will be implemented and followed up.
If Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. identifies data privacy risks according to the specific categorization within GDPR, such as a data breach
with a high level of risk to customers’ personal data, Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. has processes in place to proactively notify the data
protection authority and affected customers (if applicable according to GDPR). These notifications should typically explain the
nature of the risk, what personal data is affected, and the steps taken to address the issue. This allows the affected
customers to take any necessary precautions.
Measures to mitigate the root causes of complaints are considered objectives according to RBHU Group’s Customer Complaint
Management Policy and are directly linked to its principles. Customer-oriented, appropriate handling of complaints is a main
objective of RBHU Group’s Complaint Management Policy. The mentioned implementation, evaluation, and review compared to
the previous year directly contribute to this objective. The mitigation measures are also objectives related to RBHU Group’s
processes and products.
Customers can also submit their complaints directly to RBHU Group through various channels, including email, phone, letter,
website, or in person.

satisfaction. RBHU Group has therefore provided appropriate options for consumers and end-users. Transparent information
about these options is provided on RBHU Group’s website (Complaint Management).
Every submitted complaint is carefully documented in the appropriate case management system. RBHU Group publishes
information about complaint management on its website to provide regular updates on changes to channels, procedures, or
legal foundations. The overarching goal of complaint management is to ensure the swift and appropriate resolution of all
customer complaints. At least once a year, the main reasons for complaints are identified and analysed by the business units
and the compliance department. Following this analysis, remedial actions are defined and continuously integrated throughout
the new reporting year.
RBHU Group seeks to ensure that customers are aware of official complaint channels by publishing corresponding information
about complaint management and potential external authorities for mediation and escalation on its website. By continuously
monitoring complaint data, including the respective customer-complaint ratio, RBHU Group ensures that customers are
properly informed.

· the Data Protection Group
Regarding information and cyber security, the technical and organizational security measures aim to protect the
confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information and information systems. Services provided feature high levels of
security, reliability, and resilience. Measures and processes are defined, implemented, and tested to prevent, detect, and
respond appropriately to security incidents to minimize impacts.

Consolidated non-financial statement
A high level of information security has a positive impact on customers and their free, secure, and uninterrupted use of the
provided services for daily use as well as in adverse situations. Thus, we take the following action steps:
· Compliance with GDPR, technical and organizational measures proportionate to the risk, employee trainings.
· Incident response plan, answering within regulatory time to the data subjects rights requests;
· Monitoring data breaches and data breach notification
· Transparency
· Innovative services
RBHU Group sets a strong focus on information security. A security strategy, a framework of policies and standards, as well as
technical and organizational security measures, are defined, implemented, and regularly reviewed for effectiveness by internal
and external bodies, and adjusted when necessary, based on the state of the art and industry standards.
As part of information security risk management, security risks are identified, documented, and appropriately addressed. A
high security standard for the protection of information is intended to ensure long-term existence, competitiveness, and the
provision of trustworthy, secure, and reliable services and products.
The information security management system, defined by the security policy and the established comprehensive standard
framework, is regularly reviewed through internal and external audits and subject to a continuous improvement process. 
Identified weaknesses, improvements, external requirements, etc. are documented, measures, and remediation/action plans
with ambitious timelines are defined and their implementation is monitored. The degree of implementation of security
measures is regularly checked and reported centrally in the corresponding committees.
The information security management system addresses and aims to reduce or avoid negative impacts on and security risks
to customers (organizational and technical security measures).
Adjustments to requirements in security standards are reported to and approved by the CSO. Changes to the security and
standards are documented. The implementation status of the security requirements across RBI is regularly checked and
reported to the management.
RBHU Group tries to minimize the impact of an incident and learn from past incidents to better prevent, detect, or handle such
incidents in the future.
Freedom of expression
In order for customers and other stakeholders to freely express themselves towards Raiffeisen Bank Hungary, complaint
management collaborates with RBHU Group Consumer Protection team and RBHU Group Compliance.
With the purpose of ensuring a holistic and coherent approach on complaint management including the assessment of
material impacts and risks in the form of root causes - in aliis verbis major reasons for complaints -, as well as the consistent
leverage of opportunities, a group-wide policy on the handling of complaints was rolled out through RBI Group.
The major target of the forementioned complaint management policy and its yearly root cause analysis for complaints lies in
the optimization of RBHU Group’s processes and products, seeing complaints as an opportunity for constant improvement, and
thus the overall increase of customer satisfaction.
Mitigation measures are investigated once per reporting period.
Access to (quality) information
RBHU Group is following all relevant legislation and regulation, as well as additional frameworks such as the RBI Group Human
Rights policy in order to prevent negative material impacts through its communication with and by providing information to
consumers and end-users. 
In order to achieve the best possible impact when providing information on products and services, financial literacy among our
private customers is a prerequisite for their ability to make informed investment decisions and to repay loans.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

In RBHU Group the instructions on providing information to customers set out requirements for all types of customer
information, based on the principle that it is honest, clear, understandable, and not misleading. In doing so, the target group is
taken into account. The instructions of the Conflict-of-interest policy and complaint management describe measures that
RBHU Group takes to provide or enable remedy in relation to an actual material impact. These measures include handling
conflicts of interest and complaint management, including documenting and reporting complaints, training employees and
regularly reviewing policies.
When providing investment advice, care is taken to ensure that the services correspond to the customer's investment
objectives and an appropriate evaluation and comparison method is established. If the appropriateness test is negative, the
customer is warned. The qualifications of employees are documented and checked through a training account. These are
ongoing processes within the organization.  Raiffeisen Bank Hungary manages complaints by recording, processing, and
reporting them according to guidelines.
Actions related to social inclusion
Non-discrimination and access to products and services
Non-discrimination and social inclusion are valid for all business lines, the entire bank and all units and therefore fall under the
umbrella of the RBI Group Human Rights policy. When talking about accessibility of banking products and services, different
channels are being offered, such as mobile banking applications, web-based internet banking, but also traditional branches, as
well as remote advisory (either by phone or video calls). In this way RBHU Group strives not to discriminate anybody and to
offer access to products and services also for people with special needs on an ongoing basis.
Although digitalization makes it much easier to access products and services, affordability also plays a crucial role. Therefore,
RBHU Group offers special conditions for the target groups students/youths.
To mitigate language barriers all of RBHU Group’s ATMs are multilingual (Hungarian, English, German).
RBHU Group has taken action to reduce its websites being another barrier for inclusion and access to products and services.
Considering the upcoming European Accessibility Act a working group has been established at the Head office. The
Accessibility Act includes products and services provided through websites and mobile applications. So far, RBHU Group is
committed to creating a more inclusive online environment that can be navigated and used effectively by all individuals.
The guidelines are organized around four key principles: perceivable (content must be presented in ways that users can
perceive, such as providing text alternatives for non-text content), operable (interface components and navigation must be
operable, meaning all users should be able to interact with and navigate the content, understandable (Information and the
operation of user interface must be understandable, ensuring that content is clear and consistent) and robust (content must
be robust enough to be interpreted reliably by a wide variety of user agents, including assistive technologies). These measures
will ensure that more people will be able to have access to our products and services.
Responsible marketing practices
The objective of the actions taken in relation to responsible marketing is to ensure that all marketing communication comply
with relevant laws and regulations and is also ethical, transparent, and respectful to consumers. Marketing communication
campaign materials are developed with the involvement of the relevant product, segment departments, legal and compliance
departments (if necessary) and final advertising materials are approved by legal department. In case of a regulatory
examination all required information is collected and delivered to authorities

Information-related and social inclusion targets
Privacy protection targets
In its Data Protection Policy, Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. has established data privacy targets for GDPR compliance. The aim is to have
a data privacy framework in place that guarantees the prompt handling of data subject requests (in the followings: DSR),
ensures proactive data breach prevention through monitoring and awareness training for employees, and maintains GDPR
compliance to protect customer data and avoid regulatory penalties.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

Consolidated non-financial statement
Another goal is to optimize the processes related to DSR requests and to avoid redundancies in processes and documentation
in the event of data breaches.
By managing these processes, it should be ensured that no fines or reputational damage occur.
Also, Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. records the number and types of DSR requests (ie. access, erasure, rectification). In the event of data
breach, Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. monitors the number of data breaches and classifies them by type (e.g., unauthorized access).
Targets for information and cyber security
RBHU Group’s information and cyber security department reviews and updates security standards regularly. The information
and cyber security target is tracked via the security requirements assessment (SRA) which monitors the implementation status
of the security requirements defined within the group information and cyber security policy and standards framework. The
target is therefore in direct relation to the group information and cyber security policy.
The target is assessed annually on RBI and the aim is to have implemented the necessary security requirements. Changes are
tracked and reported to the group security committee and supervisory board. The percentage figure of the target describes
the security requirements implemented in the RBHU Group that are prescribed in the RBI Group information and cyber security
policy and standards framework.
Different tests to assess the effectiveness of security processes and measures are performed.  Additionally, information is
gathered about (potential) threats concerning RBI’s customers, end-users and itself continuously. Lessons learned, treatment
measures and actions are derived from performed tests, exercises, assessments, incidents, near misses and the gained threat
intelligence. The goal is to continuously improve the technical and organizational protection mechanisms to provide secure and
resilient products and to protect customers and end-user as well as their information. Potentially negative impacts should be
prevented as good as possible.
When setting targets, the impact of our operations on consumers and end-users, is considered, but the consumers are not
actively involved in the target setting and its performance tracking. In addition, requirements and obligations by regulators are
also taken into account when setting targets.
Freedom of expression
The overall target of Complaint Management is to guarantee/safeguard the timely and accurate handling of all customer
complaints. At least once per year, complaint root causes are identified and analysed by business units and consumer
protection team. In relation to the aforementioned root causes, mitigation measures are defined and subsequently integrated
during the upcoming reporting year on an ongoing basis in order to reduce negative impacts, advance positive impacts on
customers and to mitigate material risks and facilitate opportunities.
Mitigation measures for complaint root causes are considered targets as outlined in RBI’s Group complaint management policy
and stand in direct relationship with its goals and principles. Providing customer-centric expert handling on complaints
constitutes a key objective of RBI Group’s complaint management policy, the aforementioned year-to-year implementation,
measurement and review on respectively of mitigation measures directly contributes to this goal. Mitigation measures are also
a relative target linked to RBHU Group’s processes and products.
RBHU Group takes every complaint brought to its attention seriously. Subsequently, RBHU Group does not differentiate on
customers or their backgrounds while simultaneously specifically protecting vulnerable customers and other end-to-end users.
Furthermore, RBI employees receive special training on non-discrimination.
Access to quality information and responsible marketing practices
By adhering to the existing regulations, we aim to minimize complaints or issues related to access to quality information and
responsible marketing practices.
Practices to provide access to quality information should lead to clearer and easier understanding of our products and
services, which should lead to an increase in customer satisfaction.

Governance information
Business conduct
G1-1: Corporate culture
Introduction
Responsible and transparent business management and culture are key values in RBHU Group. They go back to the traditional
Raiffeisen values as defined by Wilhelm Friedrich Raiffeisen in the 19th century, and still build the basis of RBHU Group’s Code of
Conduct, which is identical to the RBI Group Code of Conduct.
RBHU Group’s commitment is based on good corporate governance and on global standards (including the United Nations
Global Compact and UNEP FI Principles for Responsible Banking) for responsible business practices, active and transparent
management of its operations, careful risk management and due diligence, a functioning compliance including anti-bribery
and corruption, anti-money laundering, and tax compliance as well as responsible supplier management.
Additional key elements of creating and maintaining RBHU Group’s corporate culture is its zero-tolerance policy e.g., against
harassment and discrimination. Also, whistleblowing protection measures are implemented in accordance with the EU Directive
on the protection of persons who report breaches of Union law (Directive (EU) 2019/1937) and the Act XXV of 2023 on
Complaints and Public Interest Disclosures, and on the Rules of Whistleblowing Notifications in Hungary.
RBI’s foundation: The philosophy of Friedrich Wilhelm Raiffeisen (1818-1888)
In the 19th century, Friedrich Wilhelm Raiffeisen simplified the idea of a cooperative down to one basic principle: In unity lies
strength. This idea is backed by the values of helping others to help themselves, social solidarity, charity, communality,
sustainability, and responsibility for others. RBHU Group continues to build on these values. They are visible in RBHU Group’s and
the RBI Group’s key strategies and decisions and expressed in a strong brand that places an emphasis on the principles of
identity, self-administration, economic solidarity, sustainability, and subsidiarity.
RBI Code of Conduct [Code of conduct]
The Code of Conduct is based on F.W. Philosophy. It forms the foundation of RBHU Group’s corporate culture and is guiding its
daily actions with internal and external stakeholders. It defines RBHU Group’s corporate values, ethical principles, and reflects
RBHU Group’s and the whole RBI Group’s values of collaboration, proactivity, learning and responsibility. The Code of Conduct
should ensure that RBHU Group’s behaviour in business dealings and ethical matters is compliant with RBHU Group’s high
standards.
The Code of Conduct is a binding regulatory framework to comply with laws and international standards. It defines RBHU
Group’s standards on customer / Investor / Employee Relations, Compliance with laws and regulations, combating against
financial crime, and on RBHU Group’s social and environmental responsibility and complying with environmental laws to the
best of RBHU Group’s knowledge and ability. In particular, it includes laws supporting the fight against money laundering and
terrorist financing, fraud, corruption and bribery, insider trading and market abuse. Furthermore, avoiding conflicts of interest,
complying with economic sanctions and embargoes, adhering to data protection standards and other forms of critical
business practices, including respect for the fundamental rights of employees.
In addition, the Code of Conduct consciously goes beyond formal and legally ordained conduct and describes how RBHU Group
deals with customers, business partners and employees.
The Code of Conduct applies to all employees of RBHU Group and its subsidiaries. It is published in Hungarian and across the
RBI Group in English as well as in the respective national languages on the RBI websites. It is available to all the employees of
RBHU Group and subsidiaries in the internal regulation system and it is the first document that new hires should read. To
ensure the awareness of the Code of Conduct principles, all employees must periodically complete an e-learning on the Code
of Conduct basics. In addition, all employees must sign a compliance statement in which they commit to observe the Code of
Conduct, which includes the disclosure and regular updating of statements on conflicts of interest.
External persons such as contractors, suppliers, and service providers, and acting for or providing services on behalf of RBHU
Group as well as all other business partners, must commit to RBHU Group’s Code of Conduct by accepting the supplier Code of
Conduct as part of the contractual relationship.
The pillars for ethical dealings
The Code of Conduct defines six pillars of RBHU Group’s standard for ethical dealings:

Consolidated non-financial statement
171
· Customer Relations
· ·Investor Relations
· Employee Relations
· Compliance with laws and regulations
· Combating against financial crime
· Social and environmental responsibility
Social and environmental responsibility
It is RBHU Group’s understanding that its business may have an important effect on each pillar of sustainability: in the
economic sphere, in society and on the environment. This is reflected according to the RBI Group’s sustainability strategy as a
responsible banker, a fair partner and an engaged corporate citizen. RBHU Group therefore strives to achieve long term
profitable business while avoiding, amongst others, social and environmental harm by related proper due diligence practices.
Furthermore, RBHU Group wants to contribute to the improvement of environmental protection and social standards.
Human rights
RBHU Group is aware of specific industries (in particular nuclear, gambling and defence sectors) which due to their sensitivity
have impacts to human rights. In respect of these industries, the specific policies are made available internally.
RBHU Group respects and supports the protection of human rights stipulated in the European Convention on Human Rights, the
UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights as well as the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. RBHU Group
seeks not to be involved in business with products that are intended to be used for abolition of demonstrations, political
unrest, or other violations of human rights. Any involvement in the controversial weapons (nuclear, biological, chemical
weapons, blinding laser weapons, anti-personnel mines, cluster munitions, depleted uranium ammunition, incendiary weapons,
non-detectable fragments) are strictly forbidden by RBHU Group.
Diversity and inclusion
We believe that embracing diversity enriches perspectives, positively impacting business decisions and outcomes. RBHU Group
strives to create an inclusive workplace that establishes conditions and frameworks equally attractive and beneficial to all
employees, RBHU Group is actively committed to ensuring equal opportunities for all employees, regardless of age, gender,
nationality, social origin, sexual orientation and identity, disability, or religion or belief. The importance of diversity and inclusion
is also shown in the RBHU Group Code of Conduct.
Corporate governance
Corporate governance refers to the system of rules, practices, and processes by which a corporation is directed and controlled.
It involves balancing the interests of stakeholders, including shareholders, management, and customers.
At RBHU Group, corporate governance includes regulations set by legislators and the consideration of shareholder interests,
guiding leadership under the Management Board and the Board of Directors. The aim is responsible, transparent management
focused on long-term value, with key principles including efficient collaboration, safeguarding shareholder interests, and open
communication.
RBHU Group adheres to various international and local legal provisions, supported by its Code of Conduct for sustainable
governance and social responsibility. RBHU Group’s operations are also guided by the recommendations of the National Bank
of Hungary and the RBI Group's policies. These regulations are collectively translated into RBHU Group’s own internal policies,
which are regularly revised. The policies are available to all employees in RBHU Group’s internal system.
These regulations are collectively translated into RBHU Group’s own internal policies, which are regularly revised. The policies

Anti-bribery & corruption
RBHU Group has implemented the Policy on Anti-Bribery & Corruption of Raiffeisen Bank and its subsidiaries with the annexes
on Gift, invitation, donations, support, and sponsorship management and the Compliance Training Strategy. RBHU Group
believes that bribery and corruption are crimes that require international action in both the private and public sectors.
Combating all forms of bribery and corruption requires a comprehensive approach involving all stakeholders, with strong
private and public partnerships, including the cooperation and support of financial institutions. The risk of bribery and
corruption is particularly significant for financial institutions, as it can negatively impact their reputation, thereby directly and/
or indirectly affecting their profitability and shareholder value.

The responsibility for the policy is with General Compliance Management Team.
The scope of the policy applies to all employees of the RBHU Group and its subsidiaries and to all individuals in any other
employment relationship with the RBHU Group and its subsidiaries.
The policy is consistent with the United National Convention against Corruption. The legal basis of the policy for RBHU Group
are applicable laws, i.e., Act CCXXXVII of 2013 on Credit Institutions and Financial Enterprises (Hpt.); Act C of 2012 on the Criminal
Code; Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (June 26, 2013) on prudential requirements for
credit institutions and investment firms and amending Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 and Act LIII of 2017 on the Prevention and
Combating of Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing in the versions currently applicable, as well as further guidelines and
governance principles which were considered.
The policy outlines key duties and responsibilities of employees, Compliance and management functions, defines bribery and
corruption risks and describes organizational anti-bribery and corruption standards in RBHU Group. Every employee receives
annual anti-bribery and corruption training, which may vary in depth depending on their job description. RBHU Group places
great importance on ensuring that 100% of its employees receive anti-corruption and bribery training.

· Market manipulation, insider trading;
· Misuse of personal data;
· Abuses related to sensitive business assignments.
RBI provides a whistleblowing platform (operated by an external service provider) that enables anonymous electronic
reporting. Alternatively, employees and external stakeholders can use other channels to report Code of Conduct violations (e.g.,
telephone, email, postal letter, personal meeting). RBHU Group has established five distinct channels to ensure that all
individuals can effortlessly report any violations. These channels are designed to provide ease of access and convenience for
reporting, thereby fostering a culture of transparency and accountability.

In cases where someone wishes to report misconduct involving the Compliance Department or the Board of Management, they
can utilize the RBI whistleblowing platform. This platform ensures that such reports are directed to the RBI instead of the RBHU
Group. By leveraging these channels, the organization demonstrates its commitment to maintaining high standards of
compliance and ethical conduct. RBHU Group regularly communicates these mechanisms to its employees through training
programs and all staff e-mails.
All reports are processed in accordance with the internal compliance investigation mechanism. RBHU Group’s zero-tolerance
policy derived from the Code of Conduct (e.g., against harassment and discrimination) ensures that all allegations are taken
seriously. The policy emphasizes that the whistleblower will not face any adverse discrimination for making a report in good
faith. RBHU Group treats reports made in good faith as constructive feedback and informs the Board of recurring or systemic
issues. Both the whistleblower and the person implicated in the report have the right to express their opinions and positions
regarding the matter and present evidence supporting their views. The policy ensures that the related investigation is
conducted fairly, without influence, and impartially in all cases.
All reports are treated as confidential and specific whistleblowing protection measures are implemented in accordance with
the EU Directive on the protection of persons who report breaches of Union law (Directive (EU) 2019/1937) and the Act XXV of
2023 on Complaints, Public Interest Disclosures, and Rules Related to Whistleblowing.
If violations are detected, RBHU Group imposes appropriate risk-based actions including disciplinary ones, in accordance with
internal group policy. RBHU Group constantly analyses its rules and regulations to mitigate the risks for the future as much as
possible.
The Compliance Department provides quarterly updates to both the Board of Directors and Group Compliance on the number,
type, and outcome of the reports received. If recurring or systemic internal misconduct is identified based on the content and
location of the reports, the Compliance Department will also report the cause and provide associated recommendations. The
Chief Compliance Officer in case of necessity escalates specific material cases to the highest management bodies on an ad
hoc basis.
Training & awareness
RBHU Group Compliance training policy components and structure
RBHU Group considers consistent and targeted training to be a core element of establishing a compliant corporate culture. The
Compliance Training Strategy is the annex of the Policy on Anti-Bribery & Corruption of Raiffeisen Bank and its subsidiaries. The
structured training program provides periodical trainings to all levels of expertise and on various business conduct related
subject matters, including but not only Code of Conduct, anti-bribery & corruption, conflict of interest, whistleblowing, anti-
money laundering and counter terrorist financing.
All employees must complete an annual training on a minimum standard of compliance related topics to refresh their existing
knowledge and to be informed about relevant changes and developments. All new RBHU Group employees must complete
training courses on the topic of compliance. In particular, these cover aspects of preventing economic crime (especially
combating money laundering and the financing of terrorism, international sanctions and embargoes, and corruption
prevention), market abuse and conflicts of interest, as well as appropriate measures and rules concerning internal reporting
obligations. The attendance is mandatory for all employees, recorded and monitored on a continuous basis. 
The content of the trainings is structured into different modules and tailored to employees’ specific roles and responsibilities,
the compliance risk exposure, and the relevant regulatory requirements. Updates to the training materials are triggered by
new laws and regulations, products, and customer groups or when internal procedures change. The modules are also offered
as interactive trainings with testing components to ensure the effectiveness of the trainings.  
G1-2: Management of relationships with suppliers
RBHU Group is conscious of its position in the finance industry in Hungary. RBHU Group has about 1500 suppliers mainly in IT,
facility management, consulting services and marketing. Thus, the company plays a significant role as a customer for
businesses in these sectors in their respective domestic markets. RBHU Group has set itself the goal of exploiting the potential
of its role as customer, by setting high environmental and social principles for a contractual relationship and incorporating
sustainability criteria when selecting suppliers.
Being a fair partner for RBHU Group’s suppliers and demanding fairness towards their employees and suppliers as well as
sustainable behaviour, not only safeguards RBHU Group’s operational banking activities. RBHU Group sees it as an opportunity
to make a positive contribution to society and the environment. RBHU Group uses RBI’s Human Rights Policy which also
underlines the commitment towards Human Rights in the supply chain through obligating its suppliers to conduct their
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
174
Consolidated non-financial statement
business in line with the RBI Group Supplier Code of Conduct and together with RBHU Group’s top suppliers RBHU Group works
to reduce emissions together.
Fair partnership with its suppliers also includes fair payment terms and the goal of complying with contractually agreed
payment terms. Further information regarding payment practices is provided in chapter G1-6 Payment practices.
All RBHU Group suppliers must comply with the RBI Group Supplier Code of Conduct and its principles, which, among other
considerations, include compliance with the law, the prohibition of corruption and bribery, respect for the fundamental rights
of employees and environmental regulations. The Supplier Code of Conduct is included on a RBI Group-wide basis in contracts
agreed with suppliers. In exceptional cases, supplier codes of conduct with comparable content are accepted as part of the
contract. The principles defined in the Supplier Code of Conduct are to be regarded as a minimum level for environmental and
social criteria, based on the various regulations and directives with which RBHU Group has undertaken to comply. They are a
material prerequisite to becoming a supplier to RBHU Group.
The Supplier Code of Conduct helps to ensure that RBHU Group suppliers adhere to important environmental and social criteria.
Moreover, in the event of the principles being breached, RBHU Group has the right to terminate the contractual relationship
with the supplier. This approach highlights compliance with selected social and environmental standards as a fundamental
requirement for working with us.
Further measures include considering the progress made in relation to sustainability in the selection of suppliers and the
annual survey of RBHU Group’s top (strategic and significant) suppliers. This will lead to even higher standards being expected
by the suppliers and additionally heighten these companies‘ responsibility to society and the environment.  If the supplier failed
to meet its obligations, RBHU Group would terminate the contractual relationship.
As part of the supplier management process, RBHU Group’s top (strategic and significant) suppliers are surveyed annually on
topics including environmental and/or socially relevant certificates for the company along with products and/or services
purchased by RBHU Group, proceedings due to the infringement of environmental regulations, and indicators on emissions
(CO2e).
RBHU Group’s procurement is convinced that suppliers with a high level of commitment to their social and environmental
business practices are stable partners and lower the risk of supplier failures, high workforce fluctuation and reputational
damage, as well as ensuring compliance with regulatory provisions. Establishing a fair partnership with suppliers also fosters
stability and provides a sound basis for the company’s business operations.
G1-3: Prevention and detection of corruption and bribery
Coverage of employees by anti-corruption training by employee categories
Anti-money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism
RBHU Group has established a comprehensive Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (CFT)
policy, designed to effectively address, and mitigate related regulatory, reputational, and compliance risks. This policy is in full
alignment with applicable local and international regulations, including the recommendations set forth by the Financial Action
Task Force (FATF), ensuring that it applies to all areas under the bank’s responsibility. The policy, approved by the Board of
Management, outlines clear measures for identifying, assessing, and mitigating money laundering and terrorism financing risks
and is subject to continuous monitoring, with at least an annual review.
The policy is applicable to all employees of RBHU Group and its subsidiaries, requiring strict adherence to relevant laws,
regulations, and internal procedures. Inadequate management of AML/CFT risks could lead to increased criminal activity,
damaging public safety and the economy. On the other hand, effective risk management strengthens public trust, enhances
the bank’s reputation, and fosters strong business relationships, while minimizing legal, regulatory, and reputational risks.
Key actions implemented as part of the AML/CFT policy include:
· Appointment of an AML/CFT officer who reports directly to senior management
· Risk-based identification and classification of customers and products, alongside tailored due diligence
processes
· Ongoing customer due diligence, including identification of Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs) and beneficial
owners, with enhanced scrutiny and management approval for high-risk customers, including those linked to
PEPs or high-risk jurisdictions
· Additional due diligence for companies incorporated in offshore jurisdictions
· Continuous monitoring of customer data, transactions, and accounts, including sanctions screening
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
Consolidated non-financial statement
175
· Reporting of suspicious activities to relevant authorities, such as the FIU
· Active cooperation and information exchange with national and international authorities
· Robust internal controls, periodic internal and external audits, and evaluations
· Regular training and awareness programs for staff, including in-person, e-learning, and micro-learning modules
· Active participation in industry initiatives and working groups at national, European, and international levels
contributing to the development of legal and regulatory standards.
RBHU Group acknowledges that combating money laundering and terrorism financing is an ongoing process that requires
continuous adaptation to emerging risks and regulatory changes. This commitment ensures that RBHU Group engages only
with reputable customers involved in legitimate business activities, with funds originating from lawful sources. By upholding
these standards, RBHU Group mitigates compliance risks, strengthens its reputation, and builds trust with stakeholders.
G1-4: Incidents of corruption or bribery
All bribery and corruptions suspicions are processed in accordance with RBHU Group’s internal compliance investigation and
reporting mechanism and adequate internal sanctions and disciplinary measures, i.e., dismissal of employees, irrespective to
criminal law sanctions and legal consequences were adequately applied and enforced.
Bribery and corruption cases are investigated by the Compliance Department. RBHU Group has zero tolerance policy for bribery
and corruption. The Compliance Officer’s independence is guaranteed by the internal regulations. The Compliance Officer
reports directly to the CEO and organizationally falls under the direct authority of the CEO. In executing their duties, the
Compliance Officer is independent of individuals responsible for business matters and is not obligated to follow their directives.
The Compliance Officer manages the Compliance department and its activities according to the interests of the RBHU Group
and in accordance with the law, aiming to preserve the integrity of the RBHU Group and the market.
No member of the management, the Board of Directors, or the Supervisory Board may issue instructions to the Compliance
Department that would prevent it from conducting any investigation it deems necessary, nor may they assign additional tasks
to such an extent that it would hinder the effective operation of the compliance function.
In cases where someone wishes to report misconduct involving the Compliance Department or the Board of Management, they
can utilize the RBI whistleblowing platform. This platform ensures that such reports are directed to the RBI instead of the RBHU
Group. By leveraging these channels, the organization demonstrates its commitment to maintaining high standards of
compliance and ethical conduct. RBHU Group regularly communicates these mechanisms to its employees through training
programs and all staff e-mails.
Incidents of corruption or bribery in 2024:
· Number of convictions for violation of anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws: 0
· Amount in € millions of fines for violation of anti-corruption and anti- bribery laws: 0
In 2024 all of the staff (including the Management) received anti-corruption and bribery training in the framework of the
Compliance e-learning.
G1-6 Payment practices
RBHU Group is conscious of its customer in its home market Hungary and CEE and committed to be a fair partner for its
suppliers. This includes fair payment terms and the objective to contractual agreed payment.

The above figures are based on invoices due between January and December 2024. The selected review period is
representative of the entire fiscal year 2024. There is no differentiation by size of company.
Although the information if the supplier is a small or medium enterprise (SME) is not available during the payment process the
respective employees are advised to consider the size and financial situation of the supplier when processing the invoices.
RBHU Group has strict procedures and compliance measures to be followed when engaging third parties. A KYBP (Know Your
Business Partner) check is conducted by the Compliance Department to ensure that all third parties meet the required
standards and do not pose any compliance risks. Additionally, every contract includes the Supplier's Code of Conduct as a
mandatory annex. This ensures that all suppliers are aware of and adhere to RBHU Group's ethical standards and compliance
requirements.

Consolidated financial statements
II. Notes to the financial
statements
(1) General information
Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. (‘the Bank’) commenced its operations in 1987 as a commercial bank domiciled in Hungary. The Bank’s
registered office is 1133 Budapest, Váci út 116-118.The website of the Bank is available at:
The Bank holds a full commercial banking license issued by the National Bank of Hungary (NBH) and carries on a wide range of
financial activities.
The Bank is controlled by Raiffeisen CEE Region Holding GmbH. The ultimate parent company of the banking group is Raiffeisen
Bank International A.G. (RBI).
The consolidated financial statements of the Bank as at and for the year ended 31 December 2024 comprise the Bank and its
subsidiaries (together referred to as the ‘Group’). For further information on consolidated subsidiaries please see (44)
Investments in subsidiaries. The website of the financial statements can be found at:
https://www.raiffeisen.hu/raiffeisen-csoport/sajtoszoba/penzugyi-adatok.
Zeljko Obradovic, Chief Financial Officer (availability: 1133 Budapest, Váci út 116-118.) and Tibor Gáspárr, Head of Accounting
Department are obliged to sign these consolidated financial statements. Tibor Gáspár is entitled to perform bookkeeping
services (registration number: 168480, availability: 1133 Budapest, Váci út 116-118.)
(2) Basis of preparation
The Group's consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
(2.1) Statement of compliance
As of the financial year starting from 1 January 2017, Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. – in line with the Act of Credit Institutions and
Financial Enterprises – decided to apply international accounting standards also for the purposes of preparing separate
financial statements of the Bank in accordance with section 177 (55) of Hungarian Accounting Law (hereinafter ‘HAL’). The Bank
has applied International Financial Reporting Standards for the first time in its separate financial statements as at the opening
balance sheet date of 1 January 2016. The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance
with International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRSs’) as adopted by the European Union.
IFRSs comprise accounting standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (‘IASB’) and its predecessor body
and interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee and its predecessor body.
Due to the technical limitations inherent to the block-tagging of the consolidated financial statements according to the
European single electronic format, the content of certain tags of the notes may not be rendered identically to the
accompanying consolidated financial statements.
These consolidated financial statements were authorised by the Board for issue on 27 March 2025.
(2.2) Basis of measurement
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for the following:
· financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value;
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
Consolidated financial statements
8
· financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are measured at fair value;
· financial assets and liabilities designated in qualifying fair value hedge relationships are measured at amortised cost
adjusted with fair value changes attributable to the hedged risk;
· all other financial assets and liabilities and all non-financial assets and liabilities are stated at amortised cost or – if
applicable –, at cost less accumulated depreciation and/or impairment losses.
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect
the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may
differ from these estimates.
The management aligns the selection, development, application and disclosure of critical accounting policies and accounting
estimates with the Supervisory Board of the Bank.
Significant areas of estimation uncertainty are expected credit loss described in note (6) Financial risk management and the
determination of fair value described in note (42) Determination of fair value. Sustainability-related estimates are included in
note  (6) Financial risk management.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in
the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.
(2.3) Functional and presentation currency
These financial statements are presented in Hungarian Forints, which is the Bank’s and its subsidiaries’ functional currency.
Except as indicated, financial information is presented in Hungarian Forints rounded to the nearest million.
(3) Changes in accounting policies
Amendments to standards and interpretations first applied in 2024 had no or insignificant effect on the consolidated financial
statements .
(4) Significant accounting policies
Accounting policies are the specific principles, bases, conventions, rules and practices adopted by the Group in preparing and
presenting financial statements. The accounting policies set out below have been consistently applied to all the periods
presented in the financial statements , and by all Group entities.
(4.1) Presentation of financial statements
These consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Bank and its subsidiaries and associates (‘the
Group). Income, expenses, assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries are included in the respective line items in the consolidated
financial statements, after eliminating inter-company balances and transactions.
(4.2) Basis of consolidation
The Group reports under equity instruments interests that are acquired in accordance with the Group's long-term strategic
goals, plans and business policies. Shares and other ownership interests acquired this way may include subsidiaries, associates
and other investments.
Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. Control exists when the investor is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns
from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The existence
and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the
investor controls the entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are part of the consolidated financial statements from
the date when control commences until the date when control ceases.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
9
Consolidated financial statements
The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries. The costs directly attributable to
the acquisition are accounted for at the date of acquisition in the statement of profit or loss. Any excess of the consideration
paid for the subsidiary over the fair value of the share of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired is
recorded as goodwill. If the consideration paid for the subsidiary is less than the fair value of the share of the identifiable
assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the business acquired, the difference is recognised immediately in profit or loss,
after reassessing the identification and measurement of the assets acquired. The acquired identifiable assets, liabilities and
contingent liabilities are measured at fair value at the date of acquisition.
Associates
An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence without having control. Associates are not
consolidated. The Group had no such participations in 2024 and 2023.
Non-trading equity instruments
Non-trading equity instruments representing investments in entities over which the Group has neither joint control nor
significant influence are presented in ‘Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income’. These
equity instruments are not consolidated.
Special purpose entities
Special purpose entities are entities that are created to accomplish a narrow and well-defined objective such as the execution
of a specific borrowing or lending transaction. The financial statements of special purpose entities are included in the Group’s
consolidated financial statements if, based on an evaluation of the substance of their relationship with the Group and the risks
and benefits associated with them, the Group concludes that it controls those entities.
Funds management
The Group manages and administers assets held in investment funds on behalf of investors. The financial statements of these
investment funds are not included in these consolidated financial statements, except when the Group controls the investment
funds. Information about the Group’s funds management activities is set out in note (45) Fund management activity.
Control
There is only one basis for consolidation, namely control. Control exists if an investor has all three of the following elements: (a)
rights to the income of the investee, (b) exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and (c)
the ability to use its power over the investee to affect these returns. Definition of control is defined in IFRS 10. The Bank
adopted the definition of control and consolidates subsidiaries based on that.
Transactions eliminated on consolidation
Intra-group balances and any realised and unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions are
eliminated in preparing consolidated financial statements. All unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised
gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment. In line with the consolidated accounting policy, entities
are not consolidated if they are exempted from consolidation based on that policy (e.g., due to immateriality).
(4.3) Foreign currency transactions
Items included in the financial statements of all entities in the Group are measured using the currency of the primary economic
environment in which the entity operates (‘the functional currency’).
Transactions executed in a currency other than the functional currency are considered to be foreign currency transactions.
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of the Group entities at exchange
rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date
are retranslated to Hungarian Forint at exchange rates at that date as published by the National Bank of Hungary.
The foreign exchange gain or loss on monetary items is the difference between amortised cost in the functional currency at
the beginning of the period, adjusted by effective interest and payments during the period, and the amortised cost in foreign
currency translated at the exchange rate at the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies that are measured at fair value are translated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date that the
fair value was determined.
Foreign currency differences arising on translation are recognised in profit or loss, except for differences arising on the
translation of equity investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, which are recognised in other
comprehensive income as part of the fair value measurement.

(4.4) Intangible fixed assets
Intangible assets are identifiable non-monetary assets without physical substance held for the purpose of providing services or
for administration purposes.
Goodwill
Goodwill arises on business combinations, including the acquisition of subsidiaries, when the consideration paid exceeds the
fair value of the Group ’s share of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired. If the Group’s interest in
the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of an acquired business is greater than the
consideration transferred, the excess is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses. The carrying amount of goodwill is reviewed at each
reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the goodwill’s
recoverable amount is estimated. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its recoverable
amount. Impairment losses recognised for goodwill are charged to profit or loss and are not reversed in a subsequent period.
Intangible assets other than goodwill
Intangible fixed assets that have a finite useful life are measured initially at cost and subsequently carried at cost less any
accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. The asset is tested for impairment by comparing its
recoverable amount, determined in accordance with IAS 36, with its carrying amount, and recognising any excess of the
carrying amount over the recoverable amount as an impairment loss.
Other intangible fixed assets are amortised using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life not exceeding 6
years from the date when the asset is available for use. The amortisation shall cease at the earlier of the date when the asset
is classified as held for sale (or included in a disposal group that is classified as held for sale) in accordance with IFRS 5, and the
date when the asset is derecognised. Amortisation methods and useful lives are reviewed at each financial year-end and
adjusted if appropriate.
Personnel expenses incurred during developing intangible assets are capitalised and amortised. Subsequent other expenditure
is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other
expenditures are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.
(4.5) Tangible fixed assets
Owner occupied property
Items of property and equipment, including leasehold improvements, are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and
impairment losses.
Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. Cost of maintenance and repairs are
recognised in profit or loss as incurred. Major improvements of an item of property and equipment are recognised in the
carrying amount of those items if it is probable that associated future economic benefits will flow to the Group and related
costs can be measured reliably.
Depreciation is allocated over the estimated useful life of the asset using the straight-line method and is included in line item
Depreciation and amortisation’ in the statement of profit or loss.
The estimated useful lives of individual categories of assets are as follows:
· properties (freehold): 50 years;
· properties (leasehold): the contractual terms of the leasehold are considered;
· equipment: 3-7 years.
Freehold land is not depreciated.
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year-end and adjusted if appropriate.
Items of property and equipment are subject to an impairment review if there are events or changes in circumstances which
indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
Gains/losses on disposal of an item of property and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with
the carrying amount of property and equipment, and are recognised net in line items ‘Other operating income’ or ‘Other
operating expenses’ in the statement of profit or loss.

Consolidated financial statements
Leased assets
At inception of a contract, the Group in accordance with IFRS 16 assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract
is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange
for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Group uses the
definition of a lease in IFRS 16. This policy is applied to contracts entered into (or modified) on or after 1 January 2019.
The Group applies the practical expedients allowed by IFRS 16 to short-term leases and to leases where the underlying asset is
a low-value asset. The Group recognises the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line
basis over the lease term.
The Group acting as a lessee
For contracts that contain in addition to one lease component one or more lease or non-lease components the Group as a
lessee allocates consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of the relative standalone selling price of
the lease component and the aggregate standalone selling price of the non-lease components.
The Group as a lessee recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the commencement date of the lease term. The
right-of-use asset is initially recognised at cost, which comprises the initially recognised amount of the lease liability, any lease
payments made at or before the commencement date of the lease term minus any lease incentives received, the Group ’s initial
direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle the underlying asset and to restore the underlying asset to the
condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease.
The Group as a lessee measures the lease liability at the commencement date of the lease term at the present value of the
lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date. The lease payments are discounted using the incremental
borrowing rate of the lessee, which is a base rate derived from interest rate swap curves in the currency of the respective lease
contracts increased with a margin derived from unsecured and liquid (traded) bonds of European banks published by
Bloomberg.
At the commencement date of the lease term the lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise
the following payments for the right to use the underlying asset during the lease term that are not paid at the commencement
date:
· fixed payments, less any lease incentives receivable;
· variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the
commencement date;
· amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under a residual value guarantee;
· the exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option; and
· penalties for early termination of the lease if the lease term reflects the exercise of an early termination option by
the lessee.
The lease liability is subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
The lease liabilities are remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments. It can arise from a change in an index or
rate used for determining the lease payments, from a change in the estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a
residual value guarantee, from the Group ’s changing its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or
termination option or from the revision of fixed lease payment.
The Group records the amount of remeasurement of the lease liability as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the right-
of-use asset. In case the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero and further reduction shall be
made due to the remeasurement of the lease liability, the remaining reduction is recorded in profit or loss.
The Group presents right-of-use assets in ‘ Tangible fixed assets’ and lease liabilities in ‘ Financial liabilities measured at
amortised cost’ in the statement of financial position.
Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
The Group has elected not to apply the requirements of the standard to short-term leases and to leases where the underlying
asset is a low-value asset. The Group recognises the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on the
straight-line basis over the lease term.
To the net investment in a lease, the derecognition and impairment requirements of IFRS 9 standard are applied.

(4.6) Assets obtained against receivables
If the Group has mortgages registered on the collateralised property pledged as collateral, it is entitled to sell it with or without
a court resolution, under a sales procedure conducted on its own behalf. The property may also be subject to forced sale if the
owner is a company subject to liquidation procedure.
If the Group has a purchase right over the property, the Bank ’s claim may be enforced against the property. In this case, the
Group is entitled to purchase the property at the purchase price determined in the option contract and to offset the purchase
price against its claim or to assign a third party to exercise the right of purchase and to offset the purchase price paid by the
third party against its claim.
Assets of which the Group takes possession upon resigning credit transactions are valued at a price determined by an
expert.Group calculates the impairment loss only for the receivable before the sale, because later the receivable is reduced by
the income from the sale of the asset. In case of loan contracts, impairment losses are recognised for the assets repossessed if
the fair value is lower than the carrying amount.
These assets and their impairment loss allowance are recognised in the statement of financial position as 'Other assets' and in
the statement of profit or loss as 'Other operating expenses', the amount of the reversal is reported as 'Other operating
income'.
(4.7) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include notes and cash on hand, unrestricted balances held with central banks and highly liquid
financial assets with original maturities of less than three months, which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in their fair
value, and are used by the Group in the management of its short-term commitments.
Cash and cash equivalents are carried at amortised cost in the statement of financial position and are presented as ’Cash,
cash balances at central banks and other demand deposits ’ in the statement of financial position.
Classification of the mandatory reserve as cash is explained in more detail in note (19) Cash, cash balances at central banks
and other demand deposits.
(4.8) Determination of fair value
The Group’s accounting policies and a number of disclosures require the determination of fair value of financial assets and
liabilities. Fair value is determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the following methods.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date.
Subsequent to initial recognition, the fair value of financial instruments that are quoted in active markets are measured at fair
value based on bid prices for assets held and ask prices for liabilities issued. When observable prices are not available, fair
value is determined by using valuation techniques which refer to observable market data. These include comparison with
similar instruments where observable market prices exist, discounted cash flow analysis, option pricing models and other
valuation techniques commonly used by market participants. For financial instruments, fair value may be determined in whole
or in part using valuation techniques based on assumptions that are not supported by prices from current market transactions
or observable market data.
The determination of fair value assumes that the sale or disposal of the asset occurs on the primary market for the asset or
liability or, lacking that, on the most favourable market for the asset or liability.
The primary market is the market with the highest volume and activity level for the asset or liability being valued.
The most favourable market is the market that maximises the amount that would be received for the sale of the asset or
minimises the amount that would be paid for the transfer of the liability after considering transaction costs and shipping
costs.
More information about the determination of fair value is in note (42) Determination of fair value .
(4.9) Financial instruments
Recognition and initial measurement
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
13
Consolidated financial statements
For regular way purchases and sales of financial assets, the Group applies trade date accounting, i.e., recognition when the
Group is committed to the purchase or sale of the asset. Regular way purchase or sale is a purchase or sale of an asset based
on a contract whose terms require delivering the asset within the time frame established by conventions and regulations in the
market.
All other financial asset and liability (including financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss) is
recognised when the Group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument e.g., receivables arising from loans
to banks or clients are recognised when the loan is disbursed.
At initial recognition, the Group measures the financial assets or liabilities at their fair value plus or minus, in the case of a
financial asset or liability not measured at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to
the acquisition or issue of the financial asset or liability.
The best evidence of the fair value of a financial instrument at initial recognition is normally the transaction price (i.e., the fair
value of the consideration given or received).
If the fair value determined by the Group differs from the transaction price at initial recognition – e.g., off-market interest rate
loans – then the difference at initial recognition is recognised as follows:
If that fair value is evidenced by a quoted price in an active market for an identical asset or liability or based on a valuation
technique that uses only data from observable markets, the Group recognises the difference between the fair value at initial
recognition and the transaction price as a gain or loss under ‘Net trading income and fair value result’; in all other cases, the
measurement is adjusted to defer the difference between the fair value at initial recognition and the transaction price. After
initial recognition, the Group recognises that deferred difference as a gain or loss only to the extent that it arises from a
change in a factor (including time) that market participants would consider when pricing the asset or liability. In case of loans,
the deferred difference is recognised using the effective interest rate while in case of derivatives the difference is recognised
linearly.
Classification and subsequent measurement
At initial recognition, the Group classifies financial assets to the following categories:
· at amortised cost;
· at fair value through other comprehensive income or
· at fair value through profit or loss.
The classification of a financial asset is based on a two-step methodology which defines the accounting valuation model for
the instrument types:
· determination of the business model;
· analysis of the contractual cash flow characteristics (Solely Payment of Principal and Interest, SPPI test).
The following chart illustrates the methodology discussed above:
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

Business model of financial assets
The business model is determined on a portfolio level as it best reflects the Group’s business objectives for a group of assets,
and it is also the level of aggregation that management uses. When determining the business model, the Group takes into
consideration the following information:
· how the performance of the business model (and the financial assets held within that business model) are evaluated
and reported to the Group’s key management personnel;
· the risks that affect the performance of the business model (and the financial assets held within that business
model) and the way those risks are managed;
· how managers of the business are compensated – e.g., whether the compensation is based on the fair value of the
assets managed or the contractual cash flows collected;
· the frequency, value and timing of sales in prior periods, the reasons for such sales, and the expectations about
future sales activity; and
· whether sales activity and the collection of contractual cash flows are each integral or incidental to the business
model (‘hold to collect’ versus ‘hold to collect and sell’ business model).
Hold to collect business model
The model’s objective is to hold financial assets to collect contractual cash flows even when if sales of financial assets have
occurred or are expected to occur.
The following examples of sales may be consistent with the hold-to-collect business model:
· the sales are due to an increase in the credit risk of a financial asset;
· the sales are infrequent (even if significant), or are insignificant individually and in aggregate (even if frequent);
· the sales take place close to the maturity of the financial asset and the proceeds from the sales approximate the
the remaining contractual cash flows.
Quantitative guidelines or thresholds are not provided by IFRS 9 on the value or frequency of sales from hold-to-collect
portfolio. The Group considers the sale of less than 10% of the portfolio’s carrying amount during a rolling 3-year period
consistent with hold-to-collect business model. The Group considers the sale of an asset with maturity of less than 3 months
can be deemed as close to maturity.
Hold to collect and sell business model
The objective of this business model is to meet the Group’s everyday liquidity needs. Realising profit from financial assets in
these types of portfolios can be achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets in the portfolio.

Other business models
· Trading portfolio: the primary objective is to realise short-term profits.
· Strategic investment portfolio: the goal is to hold long-term investments and collect cash flows (e.g., dividend).
· Hedge portfolio: derivatives in hedging relationships as hedging instruments.
Analysis of contractual cash flow characteristics
The Group assesses whether the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specific dates to cash flows that are
solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding (SPPI test), i.e., whether they are consistent with
the terms of a basic lending agreement. For this purpose, the principal is the fair value at initial recognition. The interest can
only contain consideration for the time value of money and for the credit risk associated with the principal amount
outstanding during a particular period of time and for other basic lending risks (e.g., liquidity risk) and costs (e.g., administrative
costs), as well as a profit margin. This involves the assessment whether the financial asset has contractual terms that might
change the timing of contractual cash flows. In assessing this, the Group considers the following factors:
· conditional events that might change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows;
· leverage;
· prepayment and prolongation options;
· contractual terms that limit the Group’s receivables to defined assets of the debtor or cash flows generated by a
defined asset (e.g., non-performing financial assets that cannot be liquidated in case of non-performance), and
· contractual terms that modify the time value of money element – e.g., the interest rate is reset on a regular basis.
The Group uses both quantitative (benchmark test – denoted by ‘BMT’ in the above figure) and qualitative (manual analysis –
denoted by ‘MA’ in the above figure) approaches to determine whether the time value of money element of the interest rate is
modified.
The Group primarily performs the analysis of contractual cash flow characteristics by clasterisation of financial assets. The
analysis of contractual cash flow characteristics of contracts that cannot be clasterised is performed individually.
Sustainability-linked (ESG-linked) loans are structured such that their interest rates vary based on whether the borrower
achieves pre-determined targets defined in the loan agreement. As long as the variability of the interest rate is not related to
additional leverage, linked to an external index or is below a predefined threshold the loans are shown at amortized cost.
The Group identified the following three portfolios where the contractual terms are not consistent with a basic lending
agreement as described in IFRS 9.
Subsidised housing loans (’CSOK’ – housing subsidy for families, Subsidised Housing Loans)
These loans granted to individuals for the purpose of financing the purchase of flats/houses share two characteristics. One
shared characteristic is that a pre-determined portion of the contractual interest is generally paid by the Hungarian
government instead of the borrower over a certain period. The other shared characteristic is that the contractual interest
reprices with a pre-determined frequency (the interest period can be 3, 5 and 10 years) and depends on average yields (’GDMA
average yields’) observed at government bond and treasury bill auctions, regularly published by the Government Debt
Management Agency (’GDMA’). In the formula determining contractual interest, the GDMA average yields are multiplied by 1.3
and a risk premium is added to the resulting interest rate. The Group regards the multiplier applied to GDMA average yields as
a leverage factor inconsistent with a basic lending agreement and thus the contractual cash flows of subsidised housing loans
are deemed not to solely represent payments of principal and interest on principal outstanding.
Loan programs of Hungarian Development Bank (HDB)
A common characteristic of the interest of such loans granted to enterprises in course of the loan programs is that the
currency in which the loan is denominated differs from the currency of the base rate used to determine variable interest rate
on those loans (currency mismatch): according to IFRS 9, due to the currency mismatch, the contractual cash flows of the loans
do not solely represent payments of principal and interest on principal outstanding.
Childbirth incentive loan
The childbirth incentive loan is part of the Hungarian Government’s Family Protection Action Plan. The program offers a state
subsidized personal loan up to HUF 10 million to married couples with the condition that they bear at least one child within 5
years. Further state support is granted to an early redemption of the loan after the second child (30% capital repayment) and

the third newly born child (full capital repayment). The loan is interest free for the customers who pay only the capital and the
guarantee fee. The interest subsidy is equal to 130% of the weighted average of 5-year government bond yields observed on
auctions regularly published by GDMA in the preceding 3 months plus 2%. In case of breaching the contract, the customer shall
pay back the interest subsidy within 120 days and the loan becomes interest bearing with an interest rate equal to 130% of the
weighted average of 5-year government bond yields observed on auctions regularly published by GDMA in the preceding 3
months plus 4%. The Group regards the multiplier applied to GDMA average yields as a leverage factor inconsistent with a
basic lending agreement and thus the contractual cash flows of childbirth incentive loans are deemed not to solely represent
payments of principal and interest on principal outstanding.
Accounting classification
At amortised cost
The Group measures its financial assets measured at amortised cost (AAC), if both of the following conditions are met:
· the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect
contractual cash flows (hold to collect) and
· the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding (SPPI).
The amortised cost of a financial asset is the amount at which the financial asset is measured at initial recognition minus the
principal repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortisation using the effective interest method of any difference
between that initial amount and the maturity amount and adjusted for any loss allowance.
At fair value through other comprehensive income
The Bank measures its debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) if both of the following
conditions are met:
· the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash
flows and selling financial assets (hold-and-sell) and
· the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding (SPPI).
The Group may make an irrevocable election at initial recognition for equity investments not held for trading and does not
qualify as a subsidiary, associate or joint venture, to measure subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income.
The Group makes this election on an instrument by instrument basis.
At fair value through profit and loss
All other financial assets – i.e., not measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income – are
measured at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL).
The Group may make an irrevocable election at initial recognition to measure a financial asset at fair value through profit or
loss, if it eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting or presentation mismatch.
Classification and measurement of financial liabilities
The Group measures financial liabilities, except for financial guarantees and loan commitments, at amortised cost or at fair
value through profit or loss.
At fair value through profit and loss
Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss include held for trading financial liabilities that are not
derivatives and derivatives that are not in hedging relationships.
The fair value changes of financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss after initial measurement are
recognised in profit or loss.
At amortised cost
Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost are subsequently measured at amortised cost using effective interest method.

Reclassifications
The Group reclassifies a financial asset, when and only when it changes its business model for managing the financial asset.
If the Group reclassifies financial assets, the reclassification is applied prospectively from the date of reclassification. The
Group considers the first day of the quarter following the business model change as the reclassification date. The Group does
not remeasure income, expense (including impairment losses or gains) and interest recognised previously.
The Group cannot reclassify a financial liability after initial recognition.
Derivative instruments
Derivative financial instruments include forward foreign exchange contracts, interest rate swaps, forward rate agreements,
futures and options (both written and purchased). Derivatives are measured initially and subsequently at fair value.
Derivative contracts are entered into with the purpose of trading, or for risk management purposes in order to hedge interest
rate and foreign exchange risk. In addition, the Group uses other derivatives, not designated in a qualifying hedge relationship,
to manage its exposure to foreign currency, interest rate and equity market risks. The instruments used include interest rate
swaps, cross-currency interest rate swaps, forward contracts, and options. The Group applies IAS 39 to the accounting for
designated hedging relationships.
Derivatives embedded in financial assets that are in the scope of IFRS 9 are never separated. In this case the entire hybrid
instrument is assessed for classification as part of the SPPI test.
For financial liabilities where the host is not an IFRS 9 financial asset, embedded derivatives should be accounted for separately
if :
· the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are not closely related to the economic
characteristics and risks of the host contract;
· a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a derivative;
and
· the hybrid (combined) instrument is not measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss
(i.e. a derivative that is embedded in a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss is not separated).
Derivatives are classified as assets when their fair value is positive or as liabilities when their fair value is negative. According
to IAS 32.42 derivative assets and liabilities arising from different transactions are only offset in the statement of financial
position if the transactions are with the same counterparty, a legal right to offset exists, and the parties intend to settle the
cash flows on a net basis. The netting agreements of the Group can only be enforced under certain conditions, therefore
financial assets and liabilities are presented gross in the statement of financial position.
Interest income and expense from IRS and CCIRS deals – irrespective whether derivatives are held for trading or held for risk
management purposes – are recognised in line item ‘Net interest income’.
Some derivative instruments such as FX swaps and FX forwards may have no contractually stipulated interest part, but a fair
value that is influenced by interest rate movements (e.g., forward points based on interest rate differential). If such derivatives
are used as economic hedges in order to hedge the interest rate risk of an underlying, the according implicit interest part may
be presented ‘Net interest income’ to correctly reflect the business nature of the transaction of correcting the interest income/
expense of the hedged underlying. 
Changes in fair value less accrued interest and the implicit interest result of trading FX swaps and FX forwards are recognised
in line item ‘Net trading income and fair value result’.
Hedge accounting
The Group designates certain derivatives held for risk management as hedging instruments in qualifying hedging relationships.
On initial designation of the hedge, the Group formally documents the relationship between the hedging instrument(s) and the
hedged item(s), including the risk management objective and strategy in undertaking the hedge, together with the method
that will be used to assess the effectiveness of the hedging relationship. The Group makes an assessment, both at the
inception of the hedging relationship as well as on an ongoing basis, as to whether the hedging instruments are expected to be
highly effective in offsetting the changes in the fair value of the respective hedged item during the period for which the hedge
is designated, and whether the actual results of each hedge are within a range of 80-125 percent.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

Fair value hedges
When a derivative is designated as the hedging instrument in a hedge of the changes in fair value of a recognised asset or
liability that could affect profit and loss, changes in the fair value less accrued interest of the derivative are recognised
immediately in profit and loss together with changes in the fair value of the hedged item that are attributable to the hedged
risk under ‘ Net gains/losses from hedge accounting’. Interest income or expense arising from the derivative is reported as ‘ Net
interest income’.
If the hedging derivative expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or the hedge no longer meets the criteria for fair value
hedge accounting, or the hedge designation is revoked, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. Any adjustment
up to that point to a hedged item for which the effective interest method is used, is amortised to profit and loss over its
remaining term through a recalculated effective interest rate of the item.
The Group hedges fixed-rate loans, deposits, fixed-rate issued bonds and purchased bonds in fair value hedge relationships
with interest rate swaps and cross currency interest rate swaps. Hedge accounting is applied on both micro and on macro
(portfolio) level as well. In the latter case, a portfolio of (modelled) current account balances and a portfolio of fixed rate loans
are designated as hedged items.
Cash flow hedges
When a derivative is designated as the hedging instrument in a hedge of the exposure to variability in cash flows that is
attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognised asset or liability, the portion of the gain or loss less accrued
interest on the hedging instrument that is determined to be an effective hedge is recognised in other comprehensive income
and the ineffective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognised in profit or loss under ‘ Net gains/losses
from hedge accounting’. Interest income or expense of the derivative is reported as ‘Net interest income ’.
The Group applies cash flow hedge accounting using interest rate swaps and cross currency interest rate swaps where the
hedged portfolio is a group of foreign currency loans and forint deposits, and the purpose of the hedge is to eliminate the
fluctuation of the interest income and expense that arises from fluctuations in the base rates and in exchange rates.
If the hedging derivative expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or the hedge no longer meets the criteria for cash flow
hedge accounting, or the hedge designation is revoked, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively from that point of
time when the hedging relationship became ineffective. The Group reclassifies gain or loss accumulated in other
comprehensive income into profit or loss in the same periods during which the hedged asset or liability affects the profit or
loss. However, if the Group expects that all or part of the loss recognised in the other comprehensive income will not be
recoverable then it reclassifies that amount immediately to profit or loss as ‘Net gains/losses from hedge accounting’.
Sources of ineffectiveness
The Group has identified the following possible sources of ineffectiveness in both fair value and cash flow hedges:
· Hedging interest rate risk with swaps could cause a possible ineffectiveness due to the credit risk of the derivative
counterparty which is not included in the hedged item. This risk is minimised by entering into hedging swaps only
with high credit quality counterparties.
· Different amortisation profiles of hedged items and hedging instruments or different notionals.
· Discounting the hedged item and the hedging instrument with different yield curves when determining fair value.
· Ineffectiveness might arise due to different starting/maturity dates between the hedged items and the hedging
instruments.
Impairment of financial assets
The determination of expected credit losses requires accounting estimates that by definition, are rarely the same as the actual
results.
The Group measures expected credit losses based on entire contractual term for financial instruments measured at amortised
cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income, loan commitments, lease receivables and financial guarantee
contracts. The Group recognises for these expected losses impairment loss allowance (in case of financial assets) or provision
(in case of loan commitments or financial guarantee contracts) at each reporting date.
Recognition of expected credit losses
For the purposes of expected credit losses, the Group classifies its assets to the following valuation categories:
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
19
Consolidated financial statements
· Performing financial instruments where the credit risk of the financial instrument has not increased significantly
since initial recognition (stage 1 classification): For financial instruments classified to stage 1, the recognition of 12
months expected credit loss is required, which is a portion of the lifetime expected credit loss, i.e., expected credit
loss attributable to the financial instrument, arising from default events within 12 months after the reporting date.
· Performing financial instruments with a deteriorating credit risk profile, where the credit risk of the financial
instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition (stage 2 classification): Financial instruments, the
credit risk of which has significantly increased since initial recognition or other qualitative factors indicate significant
risk.
· Credit-impaired financial instruments (stage 3 classification): Those exposures are classified as credit-impaired
where there is objective evidence that the debtor will not be able to meet its payment obligations towards the
Group. For financial instruments classified as stage 3, the recognition of lifetime expected credit loss is required (see
the definition below).
· Purchased or originated credit impaired financial instruments (POCI classification): POCI financial assets are those
which are credit-impaired at initial recognition. For the Group, POCI financial assets can be recognised by either
purchase or contract modification, where the modification results in derecognition of the original financial asset and
the recognition of the modified financial asset. In case of POCI financial assets, the recognition of lifetime expected
credit loss is required from initial recognition until derecognition.
Low credit risk financial assets
The Group applies this classification only in case of investment grade rated government securities, for which the Group always
recognises 12-month expected credit losses, even if their credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition. The
Group classifies government securities as investment grade for which external credit rating agencies gave AAA and BBB-
(Standard &Poor’s, Fitch), or Aaa and Baa3 (Moody’s) ratings.
Significant increase in credit risk (transfer to stage 2)
The Group considers an increase in credit risk of a financial instrument significant since its initial recognition, when at least one
of the following quantitative, qualitative or termination criteria are met:
Quantitative criteria
The Group applies quantitative criteria as primary indicators related to the significant increase in credit risk for all its
portfolios. For the quantitative classification, the Group compares the actual and initial probability of default for the remaining
maturity of the asset. The increase in probability of default (PD) which is considered significant differs for each segment (by
default it is 250% for non-retail segments but can decrease to a minimum of 150% for transactions with a maturity of over one
year, in line with the requirements of the parent bank). In the retail segment (households and micro enterprises) the
determination of significant increase in PD is based on the initial and actual credit rating, remaining maturity and the PD curve.
The measure for significant portfolio deterioration was determined on the basis of the PD estimated for the remaining
maturity of a financial asset at the date of disbursement divided by the current PD for the remaining maturity, disaggregated
into products of the retail portfolio.
Qualitative criteria
For the determination of significant increase in the credit risk for all its material portfolios, the Group uses qualitative criteria
as secondary indicators. The transfer to stage 2 is carried out if the following criteria are met:
In case of sovereign, banking and corporate financial institutions, local and regional government portfolios, if at least one of
the following criteria are met for the borrower:
· renegotiation because of financial difficulties;
· past-due for more than 30 days;
· the client requires special treatment because of its credit risk status,
· in line with the provisions of IFRS and the instructions of the parent bank in case of contracts where the Group
identifies significantly increased credit risk, which cannot be detected using other stage 2 indicators, nor assessed
with statistical models: in case of those clients where the post model adjustment described in Chapter 6.2 assumes
a non-significant rating deterioration, the transfer to stage 2 is automatic.
The assessment of the significant increase of credit risk involves forward looking information and is carried out quarterly for
each non-retail portfolio of the Group.
In case of retail (individuals and micro enterprises) portfolios, if the borrower meets one or more of the following criteria:
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

20
· renegotiation because of financial difficulties;
· expert judgement;
· past-due for more than 30 days;
· default event at another transaction of the client;
· the transaction or client is rated under the IRB methodology but falls to the unclassified category.
The assessment of the significant increase of credit risk involves forward looking information and is carried out monthly for
each retail portfolio of the Group at the transaction level.
For the information related to the increase in credit risk due to COVID-19 please see note (6.2) Credit risk.
Definition of credit-impaired loans (transfer to stage 3)
Non-retail clients
In case of non-retail clients in line with the definition of credit-impaired loans, the Group considers a debt instrument arising
from a financing agreement defaulted if it meets one or more of the following criteria:
Quantitative criteria
A payment delay is considered material, if the overdue amount reaches HUF 180,000 and the ratio of the overdue amount to
the total on-balance outstanding amount from the same client reaches 1%.
Qualitative criteria
It is expected that the borrower cannot fulfil its payment obligations, which indicates that the borrower is experiencing
significant financial difficulties. A non-retail client turns into default due to expected non-payment in the following cases:
· legal claim enforcement procedure (bankruptcy, liquidation) starts against the micro enterprise client;
· the Group terminates the financing agreement with immediate effect;
· the Group restructures the obligation with material losses due to existing financial difficulties in line with the above-
mentioned materiality limit of 1%;;
· the Group suffers credit losses due to the client, or it sells the asset with losses due to financial difficulties and
increased credit risk (typically these are not primary defaults);
· in case of financial institutions, the supervisory license is withdrawn;
· repayment moratoria in a country;
· the borrower is in significant, more than 90 days payment delinquency compared to its contractual payment
obligation.
It is not possible for borrowers with contractual payments past due for more than 90 days to be classified to a category other
than stage 3.
In case of probable expected credit losses due to other reasons: for the purpose of assessing expected credit losses, in order to
sort out clients with financial difficulties, the Group applies a complex early warning system and process based on qualitative
and quantitative indicators, which examines the expected credit losses and expected recoveries of the client using financial
indicators.
The Group classifies every transaction that meets the credit impaired definition under IFRS as non-performing and categorises
them as stage 3 for impairment and provision calculation purposes.
The criteria mentioned above are applied for all non-retail debt instruments of the Group and are in line with the definition of
non-performance used in internal credit risk management. The definition of default is applied consistently in the Group’s
models relating to probability of default (PD), exposure at default (EAD), and loss given default (LGD).
If the criteria of default are not met, expectations about losses are not justified and there are no valid concerns regarding the
fulfilment of debt service for at least 3 months or in case of restructured loans for more than 3 months, but at least for a 1-
year period, the asset is not considered defaulted anymore.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

Consolidated financial statements
Participation in the legislative repayment moratorium due to the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic is not considered an automatic
indicator for non-performance. For clients participating either in the repayment moratorium 2 introduced in 2021 (repayment
moratorium 2 and repayment moratorium 3) or in the moratorium extension in 2022 (repayment moratorium 4) or in 2022
newly introduced moratorium for exposures from agricultural financing, as well as the SME benchmark interest rate stop
(detailed in section (5.2) Significant events in the reporting period), the Group assessed individually the possible worsened
liquidity and financial position, and in such situations the clients affected by the moratoria were considered restructured and
the Group performed an impairment test to detect the expected non-performance. In case of clients detected in the
impairment test the Group performed a net present value calculation, and in case of such clients where the net present value
of the expected future repayments did not cover the actual outstanding balance, default status was identified, and the client
was transferred to stage3. The tests described above were performed separately for clients participating in the moratoria (2,
3, 4 and agricultural) and the SME interest rate stop.
During the repayment moratoria, the DPD calculations have been suspended for the outstanding balances eligible for the
moratoria.
Retail clients
In case of retail clients, the Group considers a debt instrument arising from a financing agreement as defaulted in line with the
definition of credit-impaired, if it meets one or more of the following criteria:
The financial asset is in a material, more than 90 days payment delinquency compared to the contractual payment obligation
arising from the financing agreement.
A payment delay is considered material, if the delay related to the financing agreement reaches the HUF equivalent of EUR 100
and 1% compared to the total (delayed and non-delayed) exposure from the transaction (in case of micro enterprises the total
exposure from the same client).
It is expected that the borrower cannot fulfil its payment obligation, which indicates that the borrower is experiencing
significant financial difficulties. In case of retail client the transaction turns into default due to expected non-payment in the
following cases:
· the debtor passed away;
· the debtor committed a fraud;
· legal claim enforcement procedure (bankruptcy, liquidation) starts against the client;
· the Group sold the receivable due to its high credit risk;
· terminating the financing agreement with immediate effect;
· restructuring the obligation due to financial difficulties;
· envisaging expected credit losses due to other reasons;
· there is a cross-default, i.e., another transaction of a client or another client’s default causes default of a certain
transaction.
An asset is no longer considered defaulted when the criteria of default have not met for at least 3 months, or in case of
restructured loans for at least 1 year, and the client fulfils all other conditions to be classified out of the ’defaulted’ category.
The Group considers every credit-impaired (see the definition above) transaction defaulted and classifies it to stage 3 for the
purposes of impairment and provisioning. The criteria above are applied to all retail debt instruments of the Group.
Measurement of expected credit losses
The amount of expected credit loss is an unbiased probability-weighted amount that takes into consideration the time value
of money, uses reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort at the reporting date
about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.
More specifically, the Group measures expected credit losses in the following way:
In case of stage 1 and stage 2 exposures: The marginal expected credit loss for the given month is the product of PD, LGD and
EAD. The above calculation estimates the future amount of expected credit losses effectively, from which the Group calculates
a present value for the reporting date. Then the calculated amount of expected credit losses is weighted based on a forward-
looking scenarios.
The Group applies different models for estimating its reserves for stage 3 exposures:
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
Consolidated financial statements
22
In case of exposures to sovereigns, corporate clients, project financing and financial institutions, local and regional
municipalities, insurance undertakings and collective investment companies in stage 3, the reserves are calculated by workout
experts by discounting the expected recoveries from cash flows with the effective interest rate of the transactions. The
experts provide estimates of expected recoveries at the client level in more scenarios and the probability-weighted averages
of the cash flows from each recovery scenario is considered in the present value calculations.
In case of stage 3 retail loans, the expected credit loss is calculated based on statistical estimates for most likely expected loss
(BEEL, Best Estimate of Expected Loss) to remove indirect costs, and conservative add-ons from those estimations.
Discount rate
The Group applies the following discount rates when calculating the expected credit losses:
· financial instruments and financial assets which are not purchased or originated credit-impaired (non-POCI): original
or current effective interest rate;
· purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets (POCI): the credit-adjusted effective interest rate;
· undrawn loan commitments: market interest rate which is an appropriate approximation of effective interest rate;
· financial guarantees: market interest rate which is an appropriate approximation of effective interest rate.
Forward looking information
Assessment of whether credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition and the measurement of expected credit
losses are estimations incorporating also forward-looking information. The Group performs a chronological analysis and
determines the most significant economic variables influencing credit risk and expected credit losses in case of each portfolio.
These economic variables and their impact on the probability of default, loss given default and exposure at default can vary
across types of categories. While making this analysis, the Group also uses expert estimations. The forecasts of the above
economic variables (‘base case economic scenario’) is provided by Raiffeisen Research quarterly, giving the best estimates of
those economic indicators for the following three years. In the non-retail segment, the impact of those economic variables on
the probability of default, loss given default and exposure at default is determined by using statistical regressions in order to
make the impact of historical development of such variables on default rates, non-performing exposures and expected losses
understandable.
In case of retail portfolios, the Group applies a macroeconomic model based on these economical variables in order to
estimate the probability of default. Based on this model the effect of forecasted change in PD is estimated for a 3-year period,
then it returns to the original PD curve over a one year transitional period.
Besides the base economic scenario, a best case (optimistic) and a worst case (pessimistic) scenario is also provided by
Raiffeisen Research, together with their weighting in order to grab the expected variance. The Group concluded that three
scenarios capture the expected variance properly. The weighting of the scenarios is determined by the combination of
statistical analysis and expert credit rating taken the outcomes of the selected individual scenarios into account. The
probability-weighted expected credit losses are determined by running the appropriate expected credit loss model to the
respective scenarios and weighting the results, the weights being the probabilities of the scenarios. The weights of the
scenarios (probability of the scenarios: 50% base, 25% optimistic, 25% pessimistic) remained the same in 2024.
Like all economic forecasts, these estimates and their probabilities of occurrence are prone to significant uncertainties and
thus actual outcomes might significantly differ from forecasts. It is the Group’s view that these forecasts represent the best
estimate of the possible results and cover eventual differences and asymmetries concerning the various portfolios of the
Group.
Forward looking information applied in estimating expected credit losses for the current year and for the comparative period is
described in note (6.2) Credit risk.
Presentation of expected credit losses in the statement of financial position
The Group presents expected credit losses in its statement of financial position as follows:
· for financial assets measured at amortised cost: as loss allowance which is deducted from the gross carrying
amount of the asset;
· for loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts: as a provision;
· for financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income: the impairment is not recognised in
the statement of financial position, since the carrying amounts of these assets are their fair values. The Group
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

Consolidated financial statements
recognises the impairment for these financial assets in the reserve for fair value measurement and discloses those
amounts in the notes.
Write-off of financial assets
Loans and debt instruments are written off (partially or entirely) if the Group has no reasonable expectations of recovering a
financial asset or a portion thereof. Generally, this is the case if the Group believes that the debtor does not have sufficient
assets that generate enough cash flow to repay the amount to be written off.
In a legal claim enforcement procedure, the Group considers the following factors when deciding on the write-off of a loan to
clients other than individuals:
· the claim has been qualified as irrecoverable in a legal claim enforcement procedure (liquidation, enforcement);
· the recoverable amount does not cover collection costs; or
· the expected recovery of the Group is zero in a liquidation procedure based on the ranking order of creditors.
The Group applies the partial write-off rules of IFRS 9 for loans to non-individuals, if it has no reasonable expectations of
recovering a financial asset in its entirety, based on ongoing legal claim enforcement procedure or or in lack of operating cash
flows of the client. In these cases, partial write-off is applied to the extent of the existing loss allowance. The legal claim
towards the client remains the contractual gross receivable amount before write-off.
Forgiveness of receivables is also possible for non-individuals and it qualifies as a derecognition event. Forgiveness is only
possible with taking the requirements of business rationality into account. Not only business and economic considerations can
be reasonable, but also any other considerations, e.g., legal, technical, technological or other.
A loan to an individual can be written off, if the recoverable amount from the transaction does not cover collection costs and
the claim was qualified as irrecoverable.
The write-off or forgiveness of a loan is recognised in the statement of profit or loss, depending on the classification of the
financial asset under either ‘ Impairment losses on financial assets’ (loans measured at amortised cost or at fair value through
other comprehensive income) or ‘Net trading income and fair value result ’ (loans measured at fair value through profit or loss).
Any return on a loan previously written off is recognised under the same lines in the statement of profit or loss.
Derecognition of financial assets and liabilities, other than contract modifications
The Group derecognises a financial asset, when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or
when it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially
all the risk and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is
created or retained by the Group is recognised as a separate asset or liability.
The Group also enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognised on its statement of financial position but
retains either all or substantially all of the risks and rewards of the transferred assets or a portion of them. If all or
substantially all risks and rewards are retained, then the transferred assets are not derecognised from the statement of
financial position. Transfers of assets with retention of all or substantially all risks and rewards include, for example, securities
lending, sale and repurchase transaction and securitisations.
When assets are sold to a third party with a concurrent total return swap on the transferred assets, the transaction is
accounted for as a secured financing transaction similarly to sale and repurchase transactions.
In transactions in which the Group neither retains nor transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of the ownership of a
financial asset, it derecognises the asset, if it does not retain control over the asset. If the Group retains substantially all the
risks and rewards, the rights and obligations retained in the transfer are recognised separately as assets and liabilities as
appropriate in the line items ‘Financial assets measured at amortised cost ’ or ‘ Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost
depending on direction of the transaction. In transfers in which control over the financial asset is retained, the Bank continues
to recognise the asset to the extent of its continuing involvement, determined by the extent to which it is exposed to changes
in the value of the transferred asset.
In certain transactions, the Group retains the obligation to service the transferred financial assets for a fee. The transferred
asset is derecognised in its entirety if it meets the derecognition criteria. An asset is recognised for the servicing contract if
servicing fee exceeds the value of the service and a liability is recognised for the servicing contract if servicing fee is lower than
the value of the service.
The Group enters into purchases (or sales) of securities under agreements to resell (or repurchase) substantially identical
securities at a certain date in the future at a fixed price. Securities purchased subject to commitments to resell them at future
dates are not recognised as securities. The amounts paid are presented in the statement of financial position line item

Financial assets measured at amortised cost’ and disclosed as collateralised by the underlying security. Securities sold under
repurchase agreements continue to be presented and measured in the statement of financial position among securities. The
Group presents the obligations to transfer the securities among ‘’Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost’. The
difference between the sale and repurchase considerations is recognised on an accrual basis over the term of the transaction
and is included in '’Other interest income’ or ‘ Interest expense
The Group securitises certain financial instruments by classifying the related risks into portfolios. A securitisation is a
transaction in which the credit risk associated with an exposure (or a group of exposures) is assigned to a series of tranches,
and for which both of the following criteria is met: payments under the transaction are made in the context of the
performance of the exposure or group of exposures, and the relative subordination of the series of tranches to each other
determines the distribution of losses over the life of the transaction. Traditional securitisation allows a group of loans to be
refinanced by converting them into a marketable securities. In this case, a true transfer of receivables takes place and the
assets and risks are fully or partially derecognised from the balance sheet of the party initiating the securitisation. In case of
synthetic securitisation, the transfer of risk is achieved by the use of credit derivatives or guarantees, and the exposures being
securitised remain exposures of the Group.
On 23 December 2022, the Group concluded a portfolio guarantee contract. The received guarantee is a synthetic transaction
which is split into senior, mezzanine and junior tranches. The credit risk of the mezzanine tranche is guaranteed by institutional
investors, whereas the Group retained the credit risk of the junior and senior tranches. As the Bank retained the contractual
rights to the cash flows arising from the loans and it retained all or substantially all risks and rewards from a portion of all
loans concerned, under IFRS 9 the loans are not derecognised from the statement of financial position.
The Group derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled or expired.
The result from derecognition of financial assets and liabilities is presente d in ‘ Net trading income and fair value result’ or ‘Net
gains/losses from derecognition of financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value through profit or loss’ line items of
the statement of profit or loss.
Modification of financial assets and liabilities
Financial assets
The Group carries out an evaluation when the contractual cash flows of a financial asset are renegotiated, otherwise modified
or exchanged for another financial asset. Based on this, if the renegotiated cash flows significantly differ from the contractual
cash flows of the original financial asset, the original financial asset is derecognised and the new financial asset is recognised
at fair value on the date of the renegotiation. The difference between the carrying amount of the original financial asset and
the fair value of the newly recognised financial asset is included in the line item ‘ Net gains/losses from derecognition of
financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value through profit or loss ‘ in the statement of profit or loss .
The Group evaluates significance based on qualitative and quantitative criteria:.
Qualitative criteria:
· change of currency, when the contract does not allow draw-downs in multiple currencies;
· the financial instrument changes (i.e., loan to bond or current account to term loan in case of restructuring);
· addition or elimination of a contractual term that violates the SPPI test.
Quantitative criteria:
· the cumulative average remaining term of the transaction weighted with the cash flow changes at least by 2 years
or the original term changes by at least 50% (taking into account the greater of the two criteria);
· the net present value of the modified contractual cash flows discounted using the original effective interest rate (or
for floating rate instruments, using the actual effective interest rate) differs from the net present value of the
original contractual cash flows discounted with the same interest rate by more than 10% and in case of non-retail
financial assets at least by EUR 100,000, in case of retail assets at least by EUR 2,000 (considering the larger of the 2
criteria).
If the modified cash flo ws of an asset measured at amortised cost do not differ significantly from the cash flows prior to the
modification, the modification does not result in derecognition. In this case, the Group recalculates the gross carrying amount
of the financial asset and the difference between this amount and the gross carrying amount of the asset prior to the
modification is recognised as a modification gain or loss in the statement of profit or loss. If the modification was carried out
in relation to the financial difficulties of the client, the modification gain or loss is presented in the statement of
comprehensive income in the line item ‘ Impairment losses on financial assets’. In other cases, the modification gain or loss is
presented in the statement of profit or loss in the line item ‘ Other result.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
25
Consolidated financial statements
Any fees considered in determining the fair value of the new financial asset and any reimbursed transaction costs incurred
during the modification adjust the amortised cost of the modified financial asset. Other transaction costs are recognised as
part of the gain or loss on the derecognition.
Financial liabilities
The Group derecognises the financial liability, if its terms are modified and the modified cash flows significantly differ from the
original cash flows (the evaluation of significance is the same as for financial assets). In this case, the carrying amount of the
original financial liability is derecognised and the modified financial liability is recognised at its fair value on the date of
modification. The difference between the carrying amount of the derecognised financial liability and the fair value of the new,
modified financial liability is reported as ‘Net gains/losses from derecognition of financial assets and liabilities not measured at
fair value through profit or loss‘ in the statement of profit or loss.
If the modified cash flows of a liability measured at amortised cost do not differ significantly from the cash flows prior to the
modification, the modification does not result in derecognition of the financial liability. In this case, the Group recalculates the
amortised cost of the financial liability and the difference between this amount and the amortised cost of the liability prior to
the modification is recognised as a modification gain or loss as ‘Other result’.
If the modification does not result in derecognition, transaction costs and fees incurred during the modification adjust the
amortised cost of the financial liability.
If the modification results in derecognition of a financial liability, transaction costs and fees incurred related to the
modification are normally recognised in profit or loss, unless they are proven to be directly attributable to the newly recognised
modified financial liability.
Offsetting of financial assets and liabilities
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset, and the net amount is reported in the statement of financial position when
there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise
the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Financial and operative leasing
Agreements which transfer to counterparties substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to the ownership of assets, but
not necessarily legal title, are classified as finance leases. The Group, as a lessor, recognises assets held under a finance lease
in its consolidated statement of financial position as receivables (under ‘Placements with banks’ and ‘Loans and advances to
clients’ as appropriate) at an amount equal to the net investment in the lease. The recognition of finance income is based on a
pattern reflecting a constant periodic rate of return on the Group’s net investment outstanding in respect of the finance lease.
Lease payments relating to the accounting period are applied against the gross investment in the lease to reduce both the
principal and unearned finance income.
All other leases are classified as operating leases. When acting as lessor, the Group includes the assets subject to operating
leases in ‘Tangible fixed assets’ and accounts for them accordingly. Impairment losses are recognised to the extent that
residual values are not fully recoverable and the carrying value of the equipment is thereby impaired.
(4.10) Deposits, debt securities and subordinated liabilities
Deposits, debt securities issued and subordinated liabilities are the Group’s sources of debt funding.
Deposits, debt securities issued and subordinated liabilities are initially measured at fair value less directly attributable
transaction costs, and subsequently measured at their amortised cost using the effective interest method.
(4.11) Provisions for contingent liabilities
A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be
estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions
are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of
the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.
Contingent liabilities, which include loan commitments and certain issued guarantees, are possible obligations that arise from
past events whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence, or non-occurrence, of one or more uncertain future
events not wholly within the control of the Group .
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
Consolidated financial statements
26
The timing of the possible outflows depends on the occurrence, or non-occurrence of future events which, in case of loan
commitments and issued guarantees, could occur at any time up to the maturity date, while in case of pending legal cases it is
expected to occur after the date of closing the legal case.
All contingent liabilities are included in the financial statements regardless of whether the outflow of economic resources
arising from the fulfilment of the obligation is probable or not.
(4.12) Financial guarantees
Financial guarantees are contracts that require the Group to make specified payments to reimburse the holder of the
guarantee for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the terms of a
debt instrument.
Financial guarantee liabilities are initially recognised at their fair value, and the initial fair value is amortised over the life of the
financial guarantee.
The financial guarantee liability is subsequently measured at the higher of the provision for expected credit losses in line with
the rules of IFRS 9 and the initially recognised amount less the accumulated revenue recorded in line with IFRS 15. The financial
guarantees are presented under ’ Provisions ’.
Further details are set out in note (41) Contingent liabilities and commitments .
(4.13) Interest income and interest expense
Interest income and expense on financial instruments of the Group, calculated using the effective interest method are
presented in the line item ‘ Interest income calculated with the effective interest method ’, negative interest on demand
deposits at the National Bank of Hungary and on financial liabilities is presented in the line item ‘Other interest income ’ and
interest payable on financial liabilities as well as negative interest on financial assets is presented in the line item ‘ Interest
expense’ in the statement of profit or loss. Financial instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss held in the
trading book and classified as held for trading, as well as derivative instruments designated for risk management purposes are
exceptions to that and their interest income and interest expense are presented in ‘ Other interest income’ and ‘ Interest
expense’, respectively. Interest income for loans measured at fair value through profit or loss is also presented in ‘Other
interest income ’ and interest expense for deposits measured at fair value through profit or loss is presented in ‘ Interest
expense’. In case of derivatives, the interest is separated from other changes in fair value and as a consequence, interest result
from derivatives only contains realised and unrealised interest results.
The effective interest rate method is the method used for the calculation of amortised cost of financial assets and liabilities
and the allocation of interest income and expense between different reporting periods.
The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected
life (or a sometimes a shorter period) of the financial asset or financial liability to the net carrying amount of a financial asset
or a financial liability. The effective interest rate is determined at the initial recognition of the financial asset or financial
liability and is revised in case of financial instruments with a floating interest when the floating interest rate is periodically
reset. When calculating the effective interest rate, the Group estimates future cash flows by considering all contractual terms
of the financial instrument. The calculation contains all paid or received amounts which are an integral part of the effective
interest rate, including transaction costs and any other premium and discount. Transaction costs include incremental costs
that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial asset or financial liability.
Calculation of interest income
The Group calculates the effective interest on financial assets that are not credit-impaired (stage 1 and stage 2) by applying
the original effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of the financial asset. In case of credit-impaired (but not POCI)
financial assets, the interest is calculated by applying the original effective interest rate to the amortised cost (net carrying
amount) of the financial asset. If the financial asset is reclassified to a non-credit-impaired category (stage 1 and stage 2), the
base for effective interest calculation reverts to the gross carrying amount. For POCI financial assets, the interest income is
calculated by applying the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortised cost (net carrying amount) of the financial
asset until derecognition.
(4.14) Fee and commission income
Every realised and accrued fee and commission income is recognised as a fee and commission income, except for those that
are included in the calculation of the effective interest rate of financial instruments and which relate to financial instruments
measured at fair value through profit or loss.

Consolidated financial statements
The Group applies IFRS 15 Revenue from contracts with customers standard for its fee and commission income arising from its
contracts with customers.
Fees for payment services and bank cards
Settlement service fees and fees and commissions related to bank cards are reported under fees for payment services and
bank cards.
Settlement service fees
The Group provides to its clients various services relating to account management. In course of account management, various
related services can be used, for example initiating transfers, direct debits, standing orders, internet banking, providing or
forwarding account information.
Fees related to the Group’s continuous services are charged monthly in arrears. The fees charged are typically fixed monthly
fees which were determined per customer group and per account package.
Transaction fees are typically charged by the Group at the time of the cash movement of the transaction or monthly in
arrears. These fees are typically determined as a percentage, the volume depending on the transaction. One-off fees related
to transactions are collected by the Group when the service is provided. These fees can be fixed fees or fees determined on a
percentage basis.
Fees and fee packages are periodically revised, detailed information on which can be found in the current published list of
terms and conditions.
Fees and commissions related to bank cards
The Group’s services include issuing bank cards for its clients, merchant card acceptance and other related activities. In
providing those services, various types of commission income are realised in the settlement services related line items of 'Fee
and commission income’ which are basically determined in relation to card issuance, but also related to merchant card
acceptance and based on card transactions.
A typical fee income is the yearly ban card usage fee, which depends on the type of the bank card. The yearly fees are typically
charged in advance.
Fees related to services provided continuously are accounted for over the time period the service is provided. Transaction
based fees related to issued bank cards are charged either when the transaction is affected or monthly in arrears. Transaction
based fees are typically the following: ATM cash withdrawal and cash deposit fees, brokerage commissions. One-off fees can
be card blocking fees and card replacement fees which typically fall into the category of fixed fees.
Fees and fee packages are periodically revised, detailed information on which can be found in the current published list of
terms and conditions.
Fees included in foreign exchange conversions and other transactions
The Group embeds a margin, a quasi transaction fee, in the transactions of clients involving currency conversion and in clients’
other securities transactions. Although these margin amounts are accounted for as foreign exchange gain or loss at the time
of effecting the transaction, the Group reclassifies them monthly to its commission income. Such margins can be charged in
relation to spot and forward transfers, conversions, bank card and securities trading transactions, effected through various
channels (Direktnet, Elektra, branch office).
Fees charged for outsourced currency exchange activity
In Hungary only credit institutions are allowed to engage in currency exchange activity. The Group does this type of activity for
its clients also through currency exchange brokers. Given that if the Group did this activity directly on its own, it would incur
certain expenditures, the profit realised on currency exchange activity is presented gross: fees embedded in transactions and
charged in relation to the clients’ currency exchanges and other fees collected from exchange brokers are presented as fee
income, whereas the result of currency exchange deals credited to the exchange brokers are presented as fee expense. The
fees are typically settled monthly.
Security issuance fees and transfer commissions
In course of its investment management services, the Group provides securities account management services for its clients.
The Group charges fees for securities account management and related services. Securities account management fees are

typically determined as a percentage of the stock of securities managed on the securities account over a certain period. It is
settled in the reference period in arrears, quarterly or yearly.
Other fees and commissions can be charged in relation to securities transactions of the Group’s clients, which are determined
as a percentage of the transaction volume. These fees are typically accounted for in relation to effecting the transaction and
in the current month.
Insurance premiums
The Group mediates insurance services for its clients. The Group passes through premiums collected from clients to the
insurance companies. In case these premiums relate to credit products, they are presented net of interest income. Premiums
not related to credit products are accounted for as commissions. Fees charged for mediating insurance services are also
presented gross as fee and commission income for agency services.
As these services are provided continuously, the fees are typically accounted for monthly.
Fee and commission income from fund management activity
The investment fund management fees and commissions and income from portfolio management activity provided for funds
and insurers are presented under the Group’s investment service-related income. These activities qualify for continuously
provided services, the fees of which are typically accounted for monthly, the amount depending on the size of the managed
portfolio.
Other fee income, not explained before
The financial commissions not previously mentioned are presented among custodian, corporate finance, asset management
and other fee income.
In cases when services are provided continuously (e.g., custody fees, fees for protecting credit collateral, safe fees) the practice
is also to account for the fees over the reference period, typically monthly in arrears. The one-off fees and commissions are
accounted for in the given period, typically at the time of provision of the service (e.g., advisory for corporate clients, providing
information, other financial services related activities).
All significant services of the Group generating fee and commission income are detailed in note (8) Net fee and commission
income.
Fee and commission income related to non-credit institution services
Items of fee income accounted for under IFRS 15 are also presented under ‘Other operating income’ of the Group, however
these are not connected to the Groups services as a credit institution, and as such are not part of the classical fee and
commission income. Such can be typically: fees for expert and accounting services provided to subsidiaries, proceedings fees
recovered, income from selling inventories, which are accounted for by the Group monthly in case of services provided
continuously and in other cases at the time of occurrence of the economic event.
The Group does not disclose the value of the outstanding performance obligations as at 31 December 2024 because the
contracts with clients are fixed term contracts for less than one year, indefinite term contracts with a cancellation period of
less than one year or have terms that allow the Group to recognise revenue in the amount it is entitled to invoice.
Amounts of fees are disclosed in note (12) Other operating income and expenses.
(4.15) Net trading income and fair value result
The line item ‘Net trading income and fair value result’ comprises gains and losses on assets and liabilities held for trading and
for risk management purposes without hedge accounting and includes all realized and unrealized fair value changes, interest,
dividends and exchange rate differences.
(4.16) Other operating income and expenses
Other operating income and expense comprises realised gains/losses on disposal of inventory, intangible assets, and property
and equipment and all other gains/losses arising on sundry items that cannot be classified elsewhere.

(4.17) Dividend income
Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive the dividend is established. This is usually the date of the approval of
the dividend in case of equity instruments.
(4.18) Employee benefits
The Group applies the requirements of the IAS 19 Employee benefits standard. Employee benefits are considerations given in
exchange for service rendered by employees.
Short-term employee benefits comprise of wages, salaries and social security contributions, short-term compensated
absences, rewards, bonuses and non-monetary benefits that are due to be settled within twelve months.
Long-term employee benefits comprise other bonuses and benefits payable more than twelve months after the reporting
period.
Post-employment benefits include defined pension contributions that result from state plan funded on a pay-as-you-go basis.
The Group only recognises liabilities or benefits relating to termination benefits if it is demonstrably committed to terminate
the employment.
Employee benefits are reported as ‘Staff expenses’ and the significant items related to the standard are included in note (15)
Staff expenses.
(4.19) Income tax
Income tax for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent
that it relates to a business combination, or items recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive income. The Group
considers the business tax and the innovation contribution as part of income tax.
Current tax is the calculated tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted
at the reporting date as well as any adjustments to tax payable in respect of previous years.
The Group considers as income tax the corporate income tax, the local business tax and the innovation contribution as defined
by Hungarian tax laws.
Deferred tax is calculated using the balance sheet method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts
of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is measured
at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have
been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
The Group has applied the temporarily applicable, mandatory exemption, which was published by the IASB in May 2023 related
to the international tax reform. This exemption applies to accounting requirements for deferred taxes according to IAS 12.
Respectively, the Group does not consider taxes related to the OECD pillar 2 model rules for the calculation and presentation of
deferred tax assets and liabilities. The OECD pillar 2 model rules require a global minimum tax rate of 15 per cent on profits of
multinational corporations. This minimum tax regime was enacted as EU directive in December 2022 and had been translated
to Hungarian national law by 31 December 2023.
A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against
which the asset can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it
is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they arise in the same tax reporting group and relate to income taxes levied
by the same taxation authority, and when a legal right to offset exists.
Deferred tax relating to fair value re-measurement of financial assets which are charged or credited directly to other
comprehensive income, is also credited or charged directly to other comprehensive income and is subsequently recognised in
profit or loss when the accumulated fair value gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss.
(4.20) Share capital
Share capital is the sum of amounts paid by the owners for ordinary shares and preference shares at foundation or at the time
of any capital increase. Share capital is initially recognised at the time of registration by the court of registry in the amount
registered and set out in the deed of foundation. Share capital is measured at historical exchange rates, at carrying amount.

(4.21) Additional tier 1 capital
The Group presents bonds (additional tier 1 capital) issued that – in accordance with IAS 32.16 – do not represent contractual
right to receive or obligation to deliver a fixed or determinable number of currency units as equity instruments in its financial
statements.
In the case such bonds are denominated in foreign currency, as non-monetary items, they are translated into the functional
currency, in accordance with IAS 21.23 b), at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction (historical exchange
rate).
(4.22) Government grants
Government grants are specific resources that relate to operating activities of the Group and are transferred by the state
(government and its agencies) in return for compliance with certain conditions. These can be in several forms, such as grants
related to assets, grants related to income, forgivable loans, and low-interest loans.
The government grants are recognised by the Group only when there is reasonable assurance that the Group will comply with
the conditions attaching to them, and that the grants will be received.
The government grants are initially recognised at fair value according to IAS 20 standard. According to the income approach
the Group records these grants in profit or loss over the period when the costs/expenses which are intended to be
compensated by the grant are recognised.
The government grants related to assets are presented, applying the method of gross presentation, as deferred income and is
proportionately recognised to profit or loss over the life of the asset thereby reducing depreciation charge for the period.

(5.2) Significant events in the reporting period
Measures of the NBH
Base rate and interest rate corridor
The base rate reduction continued in 2024, reducing it from 10.75% to 6.5% in several steps
Assets absorbing liquidity
The NBH applied its tools – including the transformed mandatory reserving system, the one-week discount bond and the long
term deposit tender – introduced in autumn 2022 and aiming at long-term absorbing of interbank liquidity frequently also in
2024, it held discount bond auctions weekly and continued to apply one-day deposit quick tenders and currency swaps.
Reserving system
For credit institutions subject to reserve requirements, the NBH imposes a 10 percent obligation for the liability categories
specified in the Reserve Regulation starting from 1 January 2024, instead of the 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 or 15 percent obligation that
could be chosen in 2023. The basis for calculating reserves has changed from end-of-month stock to monthly average.
Government measures
Retail benchmark interest rate stop (from 01.01.2022 to 30.06.2025)
On 24 December 2021, the Government Decree nr. 782/2021. (24.XII.) that fixed the interest of retail loans (interest cap) was
published.
The decree is applicable to retail mortgage loans with floating interest tied to benchmark interest rates (BUBOR), having an
interest period less than 3 year, typically 3 or 6-months interest periods. If such loan is under the repayment moratorium, the
interest maximization still applies for it.
According to the government decree, apart from the Section 1 17/D of the Act 2009 CLXII on loans to consumers, in case of
mortgage loans tied to benchmark interest rate, in the period from 1 January 2022 to 30 June 2022 the contractual benchmark
interest rate effective from the contractual repricing date after the entry into force of the decree, and the contractual
benchmark interest rate effective from the contractual repricing date preceding the entry into force of the Decree cannot be
higher than the contractual benchmark interest rate effective on 27 October 2021.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

The Group cannot add the sum of the forgiven interest either to the outstanding capital or to the outstanding interest due
from the affected debtors. On 1 January 2022 (or in case the benchmark interest rate for the current interest period is more
favourable than the above benchmark interest maximum, on the next repricing date), considering benchmark interest rate
fixed in the decree and applying unchanged contractual interest rate spread, the Group sets the maximum applicable interest
determined by regulation for the affected loan contracts.
The Government extended the interest cap until 31.12.2022 by Government Decree 215/2022 (17.VI.) and later until 30.06.2023 by
Government Decree 390/2022 (14.X.), as well as extended it from 1 November 2022 to non-interest subsidised mortgage loan
contracts with interest rates fixed in interest periods up to 5 years.
In May 2023 the government decided on the prolongation of the interest cap until 31.12.2023, then in November 2023 set the
expiry date of retail interest cap as 1 July 2024
In June 2024, the government extended the measure until the end of 2024, and then in December for another six months, until
the end of June 2025.
Measures completed in 2024:
· SME interest rate stop
· Deposit interest rate cap
· Voluntary retail and SME APRI cap
· Restriction on transferability of central bank bonds.

NBH Circulars
During 2021, the NBH modified multiple times its already published management Circular about the use of macroeconomic
information and factors triggering significant increase in credit risk under IFRS 9. In 2022, 2023 and 2024, this Circular has only
been amended with regards to updating of the macro parameters that guide the forward-looking information. In 2022, the
Circular on the assessment of loans in the payment moratorium was updated by the NBH to include expectations for the
treatment of loans in moratorium 4 and the agricultural moratorium.
The Group assesses its compliance with management circular as follows.
Corporate segment
The Group transfers clients in corporate segment who opted-in for the repayment moratorium 2 (launched in 2021) or for the
agricultural moratorium (2022) to stage 2 based on risk monitoring – individual assessment of the potential deterioration of the
financial situation – in accordance with the guidelines of the NBH’s management circular. However, those clients are excluded
who participated altogether less than 9 months – in compliance with the EBA’s report about the moratoria updated in
December – in the first and second moratoria. If any single transaction of a client participated altogether more than 9 months
in the first and second moratoria, then the Group performed the risk monitoring assessment in case the client was opting-in to
moratoria 2 launched in 2021.
The transactions of client already classified as stage 2 or stage 3 on participating at the start in moratorium 2 (launched in
2021) or agricultural moratorium (launched in 2022 and lasted until the end of 2023) were automatically flagged as
restructured.
Considering the fact that clients participating in the repayment moratorium 1 (launched in 2020) with their last due repayment
in 2020 were automatically transferred to repayment moratoria 2 (launched in 2021) , those client who notified the Bank during
their risk monitoring that they do not intend to participate in the repayment moratorium 2 with any of their transactions and
opted-out from the repayment moratorium 2 by declaration, the Group did not establish financial difficulty and did not flag
the transaction as restructured. In respect of newly opted-in clients the Group performed every single time the necessary risk
monitoring assessment and based on that transferred the clients to stage 2 in case of financial difficulty.
In case of financial difficulty identified as above and participation in repayment moratorium 2 the Group also performs an
impairment test (impairment test considering the credit impaired triggers according to IFRS 9) for the purpose of identifying
potential non-performance.

Consolidated financial statements
When opting-in to the repayment moratorium 3 (launched in 2021) and moratorium 4 (launched in 2022) the Group considered
the affected transactions as restructured and transferred them to stage 2 in every case. In case of these clients the default
assessment was completed through preforming the impairment test.
At the launch of the moratorium 4, which started in 2022, the remaining performing transactions – which were at that time
already classified as stage 2, flagged as restructured with an increased stage 2 allowance level – were repaid. The remaining
participating counterparties were classified as stage 3 and designated as restructured-non-performing. The stage 3
impairment was calculated using an individual assessment (net present value calculation of expected cash flow recoveries in
multiple scenarios), using a conservative (’banker's case’) approach.
Regardless of participation in the above programs, to cover risks for which there is no sufficient information to assess increase
in credit risk or to recalibrate models, but for which a significant increase in credit risk is likely, the Group's management has
recognised an overlay impairment for the first time in 2020, with quarterly review and value adjustments since then
continuously, considering the whole portfolio.
During 2024, the previous extraordinary impact of the moratorium programs on the customer- and deal classification was
negligible. The repayment of the transactions affected by the moratorium is problem-free and the Bank will classifies them in
the course of its usual monitoring activities.
Retail segment
In accordance with the NBH’s management circular published on 21 January 2021, the Group assumes that its clients
participating for more than 9 months in the repayment moratoria have or are expected to have financial difficulties, therefore
they were transferred to stage 2. Customers no longer eligible for moratorium 3 and moratorium 4 are still classified as stage 2
for a further 6 months after opting out from the moratorium. Moreover, at the beginning of moratorium 3 and moratorium 4
the Group assessed for the clients opted in to these moratoria the need to classify the related balances as non-performing
based on triggers other than days past due, due to the occurrence of ’unlikely to pay’ conditions according to point a) of
Section 1 of CRR Article 178, with particular attention to the situation, when the client is in a difficult financial situation due to
unemployment. In cases where the Group did not have sufficient information to assess the increase in credit risk, the Group's
management recognised an overlay impairment for both transactions participating in moratorium 3 and in moratorium 4 to
cover the risks, followed by regular quarterly reviews.The Group’ evaluates the affected exposures as part of its normal
monitoring processes, but in the current economic environment, it continues to maintain management adjustments to cover
risks not captured by the models.
(6) Financial risk management
(6.1) Introduction and overview
The Group ’s principles of managing interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, credit risk and liquidity risk are subject to regular
review performed by management and by the Board of Directors.
Risk management is operated completely independently from business areas. Credit risk management is operated by the
Credit Risk Management Department (CRM) in case of clients with non-standard products and services, and by Retail Risk
Management Department (RMM), in case of clients with standard products.
Individual credit risk analysis, credit rating, credit assessment and credit monitoring is performed by the Credit Risk
Management Department; portfolio level credit risk measurement and analysis of market (interest rate, foreign currency,
liquidity) risks and operational risks is performed by the Integrated Risk Assessment Department (IRD).
The Group is exposed to the following risks:
· credit risk;
· market risk;
· liquidity risk;
· operational risk;
· environmental, social and governance risks.
This explanatory note describes the Group’s exposure to the above risks, its objectives, policies and processes for measuring
and managing those risks and its capital management.

(6.2) Credit risk
Credit risk is a risk of financial loss arising from a customer’s or client’s non-performance of its contractual obligations. It
primarily arises from the Group’s lending, commercial financing and leasing activities; however, it also might arise from specific
off-balance sheet products (e.g., guarantees) or from investment debt securities.
Credit risk management
Limits to lending activities are defined by the desired balance of business and risk considerations which are established by
Group’s management, within the frame of the Act on Credit Institutions, other laws and regulations and the Group’s Credit
Policies.
The Group’s lending activity is primarily cash flow based, where the cash flows expected from the client’s core business activity
serve as the basis of repaying the loan. In certain cases, more emphasis is put on collateral value, expected future income from
the financed project, recovery rate of a portfolio or the combination of those. Accordingly, lending decisions are made based
on the amount of the loan requested, its term, the type of the product, financial situation, non-financial characteristics and
prospects of the client and on the collaterals.
Credit risk arises primarily from the non-performance risk related to banking activities involving retail and corporate clients,
banks and municipalities as borrowers. Non-performance risk is the risk that a client will not be able to fulfil its contractual
financial obligations. However, credit risk might also arise from migration risk, from the concentration of lenders, credit risk
mitigation techniques and from country risk.
Credit risk is the main risk factor within the Group, which is also indicated by the internal and regulatory capital requirements.
Thus, the Group assesses and monitors credit risk both on individual and on portfolio level. Credit risk management and lending
decisions are based on the corresponding credit policies, credit risk handbooks and on the tools and processes developed
specifically for this purpose.
Internal credit risk controlling system involves various types of monitoring measures which are closely integrated in the process
starting with the client’s application for a loan, continuing through Group ’s approval and ending with the repayment of the
loan.
Losses arising from credit risk are accounted for by recognising impairment on individual and on portfolio level. In the latter
case, impairment is recognised for portfolios consisting of loans which have the same risk profile. In retail business unit,
impairment is recognised on the level of product portfolios.
Impairment associated with the credit risk of loans and advances to clients and banks is recognised in the amount of expected
credit loss and is based on group level standards. Impairment loss is recognised, if the present value of the principal and
interest amounts expected to be repaid – taken any collateral into account – is lower than the carrying amount of the
respective loan. Impairment on the portfolio level is calculated based on a valuation model that estimates future cash flows
expected from the loans in the portfolio based on historical loss experience, taking the economic environment and forecasts of
future economic conditions into account.
The Group prepares integrated forecasts for provisions, impairment, capital requirement and profit and loss after tax and
performs stress testing. Based on expectations about the macroeconomic environment, the Group estimates default rates and
their impact on the above amounts using statistical models. The period of the forecasts and stress scenarios is 3 years and the
Group analyses Pillar I and Pillar II capital adequacy in case of both expected and pessimistic scenarios.
The Group reacted to the financial difficulties of its clients caused by the financial and real economic crisis with restructuring
measures, introduction of early warning processes and strengthening of collection and debt management procedures.
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and increased geopolitical, energy market, inflation and
property market risks on the practices of recognising restructuring and default
The events that are under actions of the government decided until 31.03.2021 in order to mitigate the effects of the economic
crisis, according to the guidelines of EBA 1 should be considered as follows in relation to default:
· The exercise of a guarantee provided by the state or state organisation for mitigating the economic effects of the
crisis is not considered as a default event.
· The public repayment moratoria (‘public moratoria’) introduced in order to mitigate the economic effects of the
crisis, or the general moratoria introduced by the Group (‘private moratoria’) is not considered as a financial difficulty
as long as the participation in such program does not last longer than 9 months. In this relation the general
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
35
Consolidated financial statements
moratoria introduced by the Group is defined as a program, which is available for a clearly identifiable group of
clients and in this group the client’s financial and economic difficulties are not investigated individually.
· Under the repayment moratoria in the above point, the payment delay is not applicable, neither is the default upon
90+ past due status. The payment delay should be interpreted based on the new payment schedules after the end
the moratoria.
· Rescheduling of payments according to the above should not on their own be considered when assessing forced
restructuring.
· It does not automatically qualify for a bad financial situation, when the Group introduces special attention and
monitoring for the closer tracking of some clients, therefore it does not indicate an automatic trigger for impairment
testing.
· The Group still has to investigate individually the financial difficulties of these clients and whether other default
trigger exists, furthermore for contracts or modifications of contract not in the scope of the actions detailed above,
the general rules. This is disclosed in note (4.9) Financial instruments.
Government actions with condition other than described above, especially the repayment moratoria programs (moratorium 2,
3, 4 ang agricultural financing moratorium) and the benchmark interest rate stop launched in 2021 and 2022, are no exception
to the standard assessment obligation for restructuring and non-performance, therefore the Group applies the standard
identification processes in these cases, in compliance with regulations of the CRR, EBA, RBI Bank, the NBH Decree Nr. 39/2016
and the NBH’s management circulars.
In 2024, the above described special classification rules related to the coronavirus crisis were not relevant anymore, given the
closure of the programs. The bank considers transactions previously classified as restructured or non-performing as potentially
cured under the normal recovery rules.
Compliance with prescriptions relating to sanctions
The Group applies policies and procedures which ensure compliance with financial sanctions and embargoes its activities.
Furthermore, the Group introduced appropriate monitoring and screening tools to ensure compliance with all regulations
related to sanctions, including but not limited to the sanctions imposed by the UN, the EU and the USA.
Credit risk management in the retail segment
Lending framework and risk policy in the retail segment
From the second half of 2022, the impact of inflation led to a decline in interest in personal loans and, within them, in housing
loans, which are the main volume drivers, compared to the lending performance of previous years. Then, in 2023, in line with the
consolidation of the interest rate environment, a gradual recovery in market demand for household loans could be observed.
Great attention is paid to strengthening online lending channels and automating loan approval steps and processes. In line
with the launch of the CSOK Plus program and the changes in the MNB's regulations, in 2024 housing loans up to 90% LTV
became available for first-time home buyers. At the end of the year, preparations for the introduction of the Workers' Loan
started, which will also be available to the customers from January 2025.
Micro and small enterprise segment
In 2024, new lending in the micro and small enterprise segment continued to be dominated by Széchenyi products. Taking into
account the impact of macroeconomic developments, the Group fine-tuned its sector-specific risk appetite for new lending
during the year. The expected portfolio deterioration did not materialize, although there were differences at the industry level.
For the weaker performing client base as a result of macroeconomic developments, funding was restructured to maintain
solvency. The Group further strengthened its analytical process control and risk framework in the micro and small enterprise
segment. The Group regularly collects information from its clients and monitors the impact of macroeconomic developments
to maintain portfolio quality.
Impairment in the retail segment
In November 2020, the Group - considering the ‘Management Circular about the use of macroeconomic information and
factors triggering significant increase in credit risk under IFRS 9’ published by NBH - decided to apply a portfolio level
management overlay, the so-called Post Model Adjustment. The underlying assumption for this was that the days-past-due
(DPD) numbers frozen due to the repayment moratoria did not reflect the real expected credit losses for the period after the
moratoria.
At the end of June 2023, the management corrections relating to the moratoria were derecognised in the sixth month
following the cessation of the general payment moratorium, as the clients affected are thereafter assessed in course of the
normal monitoring processes and fall under past due days calculation thus not associated with excess risk.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

However, due to the impact of energy market risks and increasing liquidity and profitability difficulties, the Group again
introduced portfolio level management corrections in the micro and small enterprise segment in 2022.The Group kept the
affected clients under close monitoring during 2023, but as a result of persistent inflationary pressures and the economic
downturn, the Group did not see any reason to withdraw the corrections. As a result of the monitoring, the scope of the
affected transactions was redefined and expanded to include individual entrepreneurial clients financed in the retail segment
and employees of companies considered to be in a risky industry. In view of the slow but rising unemployment rate and the
much slower than expected recovery of the Hungarian economy, the Group continued to maintain management overlays for
the most credit riskiest customer groups in 2024, which were fine-tuned in light of the results of ongoing customer monitoring
due to the risks not covered by the model.
Due to increasingly occurring extreme weather events, the problem of climate change became the focus of also the Group’s
attention. The Group worked out the practice to identify, quantify and manage such type of risks and implemented it into its
risk processes. The physical risk associated with ESG relates to the occurrence of extreme climate events and their impact on
the Group's assets. Physical risks are not directly captured in the current IFRS 9 provisioning framework. If a physical risk event
occurs in a region, property in that region could be damaged or, in the worst case, completely destroyed. The physical risks of
the Group's mortgage portfolio are assessed twice a year by an external data provider. When assessing physical risk, the Group
assesses the probability of occurrence for each property in its mortgage portfolio. The assessment is performed using climate
models developed by the data provider. The ESG physical risk methodology for mortgage loans focuses on the damage caused
by potential physical risk events and the reduced market value of the property, resulting in an adjusted market value. The
adjusted market value has 3 components:
· The probability of a physical risk event occurring
· The percentage of loss, expressed as a percentage of the loss rate, if a physical risk event were to occur.
· The market value (MV) of the property.
The Group has incorporated the results obtained in this way into the impairment calculation for residential mortgages through
the LGD parameter.
Credit risk management in the corporate segment
Lending framework and risk policy in the corporate segment
In case of the corporate segment, the Group is regularly monitoring and reviewing to what extent its clients are affected by
the current macroeconomic and geopolitical risks and is trying to collect more and better information. As a result of the
portfolio screening, the Group identified some particularly sensitive industries (e.g.,real estate finance, construction companies,
retailers , vehicle production, companies with sensitivity to interest rates or exchange rate changes, companies with elevated
refinancing risk and companies exposed to environmental impact changes) where the exposures, industry outlooks and
possible scenarios were reviewed in detail and individually as well. The screening has still been running regularly ever since in
case of the corporate segment.
The Group's corporate and project finance portfolio has no significant cross-border financing towards Russia and Ukraine. The
Group has identified one client group which, in addition to its activities in Hungary, also has some independent activities in
Russia, which is not financed by the Group. The exposure to the identified client group does not exceed 1% of the corporate
exposure. Indirect risks have not yet been identified also in 2023 and in 2024, but the occurrence of possible spreading effects
in 2025 cannot be completely excluded (e.g., future sanctions, disruption of supply chains, see gas, oil).
Furthermore, the RBI group reviewed its current lending policy for 2024 and introduced a limitation on the foreign exchange risk
arising during lending for clients without natural hedge, as well as ESG monitoring of the portfolio.
Identification and management of industry risks follows a well-established methodology, considering both short- and long-
term perspectives, and is based on a detailed analysis of a single set of criteria. As a result, sectors are classified into high/
medium/low risk categories on the basis of the industry risk matrix and the lending policy is accordingly tightened as follows:
· Clients in high-risk industries: new transactions and prolongations with existing clients should be handled with
special care and can be approved in special cases, acquisitions of new clients are to be avoided.
· Clients in moderate risk industries: prolongations may be performed, but new transactions shall only be concluded, if
based on a sensitivity analysis in case of a decrease in the client’s revenue, the Group does not expect any
significant decline in the client’s rating. The accurate documentation of the sensitivity analysis is crucial to the
decision.
· Clients in low-risk industries: continuing of the normal business in line with the lending policy in effect.
Review and adjustment of the general corporate lending framework in effect as well as corporate lending framework specific
to the type of financing:

· the risk profile of the clients needs to be investigated from the point of view of both the volume of supply/
demand and the potential damage of the supply chain,
· the flexibility of the cost structure needs to be analysed,
· when assessing the client’s financial situation, its short-term liquidity needs to be analysed (whether it is
able to cover its expenditures for the next 6-9 months),
· the existence and probability of the shareholders financial support should be assessed,
· further lending, if needed, is only allowed if the increased debt service is still in line with reference debt
ratios in the Group’s risk policy, and the recovery is expected from primary sources,
· if debt reference ratios are significantly breached, the client is given PWO status,
· the elevated refinance risk and compliance with contractual conditions shall be assessed thoroughly, and
root cause of breaches shall analysed
· supplementing specific lending policies
· transactions with leverage: new transactions with the purpose of management-buy-out (MBO) and
acquisitions/buy-outs should be financed with particular care,

or decreasing revenue easily could by over-hedged, therefore they could become exposed to the changes

rate swaps concluded in relation to clients participating in the repayment moratoria should be modified
between the client and the Group based on bilateral agreement,

· non-project-related unsecured finance for property developers: the Group accepts proposals only with
particular prudence,
· real estate financing: the Group accepts proposals only with particular prudence,
· balloon-bullet transactions shall be approved with particular prudence.
Impairment in the corporate segment
The Groups impairment recognition was influenced in many ways by the current market conditions. Stage 1 and stage 2
impairment was directly affected by the changing macroeconomic forecasts (mainly GDP, unemployment rates, inflation,
government bond yields, short-term interest rates, changes in commercial real estate prices) provided by the RBI’s analytical
department which were updated a number of times during the year.
In 2022, the Group re-modelled the impact of macroeconomic data on impairment, transitioning to a new model which, by
fitting to the current economic environment, results in a more prudent level of provisioning. In parallel, since 2020 the Group
has applied the option of management overlay, post model adjustment in impairment recognition.
The post model adjustment model allocates impairment in addition to the model to industries identified along various factors
depending on how much they are exposed to these factors (e.g. real estate market repricing, rising interest rates, refinancing
risks, inflationary environment, supply chain difficulties, labour market shortages, changing environmental factors). The model
dynamically estimates deal-by-deal, based on the risk factors identified in the given period a ceteris paribus expected
probability of rating worsening and a corresponding expected probability of default and an expected increase in credit loss.
In 2024, the most important risk factors affecting the corporate portfolio playing a role in PMA calculation were the increased
increased interest rate environment, real estate market depreciation, inflation, labour market conditions, supply chain
vulnerabilities, refinancing risks and exposure to environmental factors. The industries identified as most risky were office real
estate, residential and commercial property development and constructions industry.
The (stage 2) indicators used in identifying increased credit risk profile were also supplemented by an indicator to take non-
modelled risks into account. Based on the post model adjustment using industry classification, clients for which the model
expects a significant rating deterioration were transferred to stage 2, thus impairment recognised for them covers the lifetime
expected credit loss.

Process of credit rating
Risk assessment and rating of corporate clients, project companies, companies acting in commodity and commerce financing
and municipality clients is based on individual assessment and rating, with regular financial monitoring and annual renewal of
limits. Financing is based on credit limits, at the transaction level only with simple approval method used.
In case of credit products for individuals, private banking clients and small and medium enterprises, an automated scorecard-
based assessment is in place.
Internal credit rating categories are as follows:
· Minimal risk:
· Non-retail portfolio: This rating category is reserved for corporates with the highest external credit ratings
(AAA) and for other special cases that are deemed to bear minimal risk (e.g., companies related to the
government, OECD countries rated AAA by an external credit rating agency).
· Retail portfolio: This rating category is reserved for the clients with the best credit ratings.
· Excellent credit standing:
· Non-retail portfolio: For all other clients this is the highest available rating category. Based on the
excellent profitability, financial obligations can be fulfilled at any time. Companies in this rating category
have a strong equity position and a sound financing structure.
· Retail portfolio: On the basis of an excellent income, financial obligations can be fulfilled at any time.
· Very good credit standing:
· Non-retail portfolio: On the basis of a very strong profitability the probability is very high that the client
can fulfil all payment obligations – both principal and interest – also in the long term. Companies in this
rating category also have a strong equity position and a sound financing structure and market position.
· Retail portfolio: On the basis of a high income the probability is very high that the client can fulfil all
payment obligations – both principal and interest – also on the long run. Clients in this category have a
comfortable financial situation.
· Good credit standing:
· Non-retail portfolio: On the basis of a strong profitability, it is expected that the client can fulfil all
financial obligations in the medium term. Good capital situation and sound financing structure.
· Retail portfolio: Based on a high income and sociodemographic position it is expected that the client can
fulfil all financial obligations in the medium term.
· Average credit standing:
· Non-retail portfolio: Based on a strong profitability, continuous principal repayments and interest
payments are expected. A reasonable balance sheet structure with a satisfactory equity base.
· Retail portfolio: Based on its sufficient credit capacity and sociodemographic position continuous principal
repayments and interest payments are expected.
· Acceptable credit standing:
· Non-retail portfolio: Based on satisfactory profitability, continuous principal repayments and interest
payments are expected. Increased sensitivity towards serious deterioration of economic environment.
Limited flexibility in financing.
· Retail portfolio: Based on satisfactory income and sociodemographic position, continuous principal
repayments and interest payments are expected. Increased sensitivity towards serious deterioration of
economic environment.
· Low credit standing:
· Non-retail portfolio: Clients in this rating category have a low profitability and their financial flexibility is
limited. Significant deterioration of economic parameters might have a negative impact on the timeliness
of principal repayments and interest payments. Their business fundamentals are below average and show
weaknesses in certain areas.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

· Retail portfolio: Clients in this category have a lower income and a more limited credit capacity. Significant
deterioration of economic parameters might have a negative impact on the timeliness of principal
repayments and interest payments.
· Weak credit standing/below average:
· Non-retail portfolio: Companies with weak profitability and weak financing structure. Yet a lower
magnitude negative change in the economic environment can prevent the complete and timely fulfilment
of the financial obligations.
· Retail portfolio: Has a low income and an unfavourable sociodemographic position. Yet a lower magnitude
negative change in the economic environment can prevent the complete and timely fulfilment of the
financial obligations.
· Doubtful / high default risk:
· Non-retail portfolio: Companies with a very weak profitability and a problematic financing structure.
Partial losses on the principal or on interest should be envisaged.
· Retail portfolio: Has a very low income and an unfavourable sociodemographic position. Partial losses on
the principal or on interest are envisaged.
· Default:
· Occurred non-performance. The financial obligations could not or expected not to be fulfilled entirely and
timely.
· Unrated:
· Non-retail portfolio: Unrated exposures in the corporate sector mostly belong to the sub-segment under
the standardised approach (Article 150 of 575/2013 EU Regulation) and thus they, by definition, do not have
an internal credit rating (e.g., liabilities under litigation, settlement accounts with foreign exchange brokers
presented under other receivables).
· Retail portfolio: Unrated exposures in the retail sector mainly consist of negative account balances (based
on a special rule the Group recognises 100% impairment on them), uncoded transactions, transactions
unrated due to data failure in a negligible number, subsidized or private loans under the standardised
approach, and certain loans provided to micro enterprises.

The refinancing received and the loans granted under Funding Growth Schemes (FGS) are transactions concluded at off-
market terms. In these cases, in accordance with IFRS 9.5.1.1A and B5.1.2A, theGroup quantifies the fair value difference which is
amortised to net interest income over the term of the loans.
At the end of 2024 the net balances relating to the FGS Schemes described above amounted to HUF 80,524 million ( 2023: the
Group had an FGS refinancing balance of HUF 88,655 million).

With its 2024 December decision, the government favourably modified the basic eligibility criteria of the childbirth incentive
loans (raising the application age from 30 to 35 years). In addition, the interest-subsidized housing loan product (CSOK Plusz) is
still available.
A new interest-subsidized and interest-free financing structure called ‘Munkáshitel’ (Worker’s loan) was launched at the
beginning of 2025. ‘Munkáshitel’ (Worker’s Loan) is an unpurposed cash loan with state guarantee available for young people
aged 17-25 who do not have a higher education degree and are not enrolled in a higher education institution as a student
Similar to competitors, the product was rolled out in the first half of January 2025.

Purchased or originated credit-impaired (POCI) financial instruments
The predominant part of the Group’s POCI portfolio was recognised in the books of the Bank through the mandatory
conversion of foreign currency denominated loan receivables to Hungarian Forint at fixed exchange rates in accordance with
Act XXXVIII of 2014 (‘Curia Act’), Act XL of 2014 (‘Settlement Act’), Act LXXVII of 2014 (‘Hungarian Forint Conversion Act’) and Act
CXLV of 2015 on questions relating to Hungarian Forint conversion of certain consumer loan contracts.
Changes to the portfolio
Net exposure towards credit institutions decreased significantly compared to the previous year (2024 : HUF 756 billion; 2023: HUF
1,236 billion), attributable to significant decrease in the balance of the Group’s current account at the National Bank.
In 2024, the volume of non-performing loans in the corporate segment increased by HUF 8.2 billion (2024: HUF 45.4 billion, 2023:
HUF 37.2 billion) along with a smaller increase of the portfolio (2024: HUF 1,376 billion; 2023: 1,364 billion).
The increase in the non-performing portfolio was caused as a result of the following opposite effects:
· besides the decreasing effect of recoveries of approximately HUF 9.9 billion resulting from workout activities;
· the Group identified approximately HUF 17.1 billion new non-performing loans in course of its standard identification
procedures;
· HUF 0.07 billion was affected by write-off and loan sale;
· foreign currency revaluation difference on the non-performing portfolio caused by the weakening of the forint
increased the outstanding amount by approximately HUF 1.8 billion.
The level of new non-performing balances was dominated by three individual transactions (in aggregate HUF 14.6 billion, 85%
of the total new non-performing volume) where the Group decided to apply non-performing status due to uncertainties of
future cash-flows. The events are isolated, no systematic deterioration or the indicators thereof can be seen in the non-
performing portfolio.
The ratio of non-performing loans in the corporate segment is 2.9%, slightly elevated compared to previous year.
There was an increase in retail and small enterprise portfolio in 2023 as well (2024: HUF 654.9 billion, 2023: HUF 618.2 billion). In
the retail sector, there was an increase in both mortgage loans and uncollateralised product groups, out of uncollateralised
products, childbirth incentive loans are mandatorily measured at fair value though profit or loss. Non-performing portfolio
decreased (2024. HUF 12 billion, 2023: HUF 18.6 billion). In the retail segment, unrated portfolio remained at the same level (2024:
HUF 159 billion, 2023: HUF 159 billion) the largest part of which is made up by childbirth incentive loans.
Expected credit losses
Quantification of expected credit losses for financial assets measured at amortised cost and financial assets measured at fair
value through other comprehensive income is performed in accordance with the respective accounting policies, see
explanatory note (4.9) Financial instruments.
The determination of the exposure necessary for credit risk management is a complex exercise and requires the application of
models as exposure changes depend on market conditions, expected cash flows and the passage of time. The assessment of
credit risk of the portfolio contains further estimations regarding the probability of default, the loss given default and the
correlations between different clients’ non-performance. The Group measures credit risk using the probability of default (PD),
the risk exposure (EAD) and the expected loss due to default (LGD). This is the primary approach in measuring expected credit
losses under IFRS 9.
Expected credit losses are calculated by workout experts for stage 3 exposures towards sovereign and corporate clients, from
project financing, towards credit institutions, local and regional municipalities, insurance companies and collective investment
companies by discounting the expected recoveries from the cash flows using the effective interest rates. Expected recoveries
for multiple scenarios are given on the deal-level by the experts and probability-weighted average of the cash flows for each
return scenario is considered when calculating the present value of recoveries.
Measuring expected credit losses of financial assets measured at amortised cost and financial assets measured at fair value
through other comprehensive income is an area requiring the use of complex models and making significant assumptions
regarding future economic conditions and the behaviour of the loans. Significant estimates made in applying the accounting
requirements for expected credit losses are as follows:
· determining the criteria for significant increase in credit risk;
· selecting appropriate models for the purpose of measuring expected credit losses;
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
Consolidated financial statements
50
· determining the appropriate number of scenarios and the appropriate weighting of them for the product types,
markets and the expected credit losses associated with them;
· grouping similar financial assets into portfolios for the purpose of measuring expected credit losses.
PDs in retail portfolios (individuals and micro-enterprises) are estimated across homogenous segments and product portfolios,
while LGD estimation is typically more granular (portfolios with homogenous collaterals).
In case of non-retail portfolio, PDs are estimated at the segment level while LGD estimation involves more parameters
(segment, product, fact and level of collateralization).
Probability of default (PD)
Probability of default means the probability that the borrower will not fulfil its financial obligations in the following 12 months
or in the remaining lifetime of the financial instrument. In general, in case of non-retail segments the calculation of lifetime
probability of default uses 12 months expected probability of default in accordance with Article 178 CRR, cleared from the
conservative margin as a starting point. (In line with the definition of default in Article 178 CRR every financial asset that is
credit-impaired under IFRS 9 is considered to be in default, and every defaulted financial asset is considered credit-impaired).
In retail segments probability of default is calculated over the lifetime of the instrument, with modelling the probability of
monthly marginal default and repayments. In case of negative account balances the Group records impairment for the total
receivable, therefore both the PD and LGD is 100%.
Following this, various statistical methods are used to determine how certain characteristics (amongst others rating, days past
due) evolve from initial recognition over the entire lifetime of the loan portfolio. The typical risk profile is based on historical
data and parameters.
The Group uses statistical models to incorporate forward-looking information into PDs in case of the following segments:
· sovereigns, local and regional municipalities, insurance companies and collective investment companies;
· corporate clients, project financing and financial institutions;
· retail (individuals and micro-enterprises).
When certain input parameters are not available entirely, grouping, averaging and benchmarking is used for the purpose of the
calculations.
The following table presents the average PDs. When determining the average PDs, the Group did not take into consideration

Loss given default (LGD)
The loss given default is the Group’s expectation about the magnitude of the loss. The loss rate expected at default is different
depending on the type of counterparty and product.
For non-retail segments, given the amount of data available and the weight of non-retail segments in the portfolio, modelling
is performed by Raiffeisen Bank International:
· in case of corporate clients, project financing, credit institutions, insurance companies and local and regional
municipalities, the Group uses its own LGD estimations taking loss rate experience into account;
· loss given default for sovereign debts is estimated using market information sources;
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
51
Consolidated financial statements
· in case of investment funds, given the lack of loss experience, as expert estimation, the collateralised LGD
considered in capital adequacy calculations, is used.
In order to determine the LGD parameters the RBI modelling collects data from the group members, which is sent individually
to the central database by the entities. Thereafter, the central modelling calculates the LGD based on the data received and
country-specific information so, that it matches the lending information of the various entities.
Macroeconomic forecasts were also incorporated into LGDs that are based on own estimations. The Group uses a weighted
average LGD over three scenarios when quantifying expected credit loss.
In the retail segment, the LGD estimate is based on the yield data collected by the Group. Modelling is performed by the Group
on its own based on the methodology approved by RBI. The model is validated by the IRB. Generally, for the purpose of
calculating impairment the Group uses loss given default determined in accordance with CRR, cleared from conservative
factors. In cases of negative account balances the LGD is 100%.
Exposure at default (EAD)
Exposure at default is measured considering all amounts regarded by the Group as receivable at an expected date of default
within the next 12 months or over the entire lifetime of the instrument. 12 month and lifetime EAD is determined taking the
expected repayment characteristics into account, which varies across product types. For amortising products and bullet-type
loans, EAD is based on contractual repayment obligations over the next 12 months or the lifetime of the instrument. Where
relevant, assumptions about prepayments and refinancing are considered while calculating EAD.
In case of non-retail segments, the Group makes own estimations in order to quantify exposures at default of off-balance
sheet items for corporate and SMB portfolios that have so-called high probabilities of default. The credit conversion factors
applied are quantified using different methodologies for revolving and non-revolving exposures. Related modelling is
performed by RBI. This process is the same as the process described at the modelling of LGD parameters, i.e., various entities
send data to the central database, afterwards the central modelling calculates the EAD using this and other country-specific
information so that it matches the lending information of the various entities.
In case of retail portfolios, exposure at default is determined monthly taking the future expected principal repayments into
account. In case of revolving transactions, exposure at default is determined taking a credit conversion factor (CCF) into
account as follows: EAD = used facility + unused facility * CCF. The expected lifetime of revolving transactions is estimated
using statistical methods, which allows us to calculate lifetime expected credit losses also for such product types.
Forward-looking information
Assessment of whether credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition and the measurement of expected credit
losses are estimations incorporating also forward-looking information. The Group performed a chronological analysis and
determined the most significant economic variables influencing credit risk and expected credit losses in case of each portfolio.
These economic variables and their impact on the probability of default, loss given default and exposure at default can vary
across types of categories. While making this analysis expert estimations were also used. The forecasts of the above economic
variables (‘base case economic scenario’) is provided by Raiffeisen Research quarterly, giving the best estimates of those
economic indicators for the following three years. The impact of those economic variables on the probability of default, loss
given default and exposure at default is determined by using statistical regressions in order to make the impact of historical
development of such variables on default rates, non-performing exposures and expected losses understandable.
The most important macroeconomic variables affecting expected credit losses are as follows:
· Non-retail portfolios: gross domestic product, unemployment rate, long-term (10 years) government bond yields,
change in real estate prices, 3-month benchmark interest rate.
· Retail portfolios: gross domestic product, housing price index, benchmark interest rate, inflation rate.
Besides the base economic scenario, a best case (optimistic) and a worst case (pessimistic) scenario is also provided by
Raiffeisen Research, together with their weighting (the weighting of the three scenarios: 25% optimistic, 50% base, 25%
pessimistic scenario), in order to grab expected variances. The weighting of the scenarios is determined by the combination of
statistical analysis and expert credit rating taken the outcomes of the selected individual scenarios into account. The
probability-weighted expected credit losses are determined by running the appropriate expected credit loss model to the
respective scenarios and weighting the results, the weights being the probabilities of the scenarios. The weights of the
scenarios (probability of the scenarios: 50% base, 25% optimistic, 25% pessimistic) remained the same in 2024.

As all economic forecasts, these estimates and their probabilities of occurrence are prone to significant uncertainties and thus
actual outcomes might significantly differ from forecasts. It is the Group’s view that these forecasts represent the best
estimate of the possible results and cover eventual differences and asymmetries concerning the various portfolios of the
Group.
Post model adjustment and other specific risk factors
In situations where the existing input parameters, assumptions and modelling do not cover all relevant risk factors, post-model
adjustments (PMA) and specific risk factors are the most important types of overlays. This is generally the case if there are
temporary circumstances, time restrictions to adequately incorporate relevant new information into the rating and if individual
loans within a loan portfolio develop differently than originally expected. All these adjustments are approved locally and
centrally by the Group Risk Committee (GRC).
Generally, post-model adjustments are only a temporary solution to cover risks that are yet not captured by the existing
model. They are temporary and typically not valid for more than one to two years. Unlike the post-model adjustments, the
other specific risk factor model has a somewhat longer time horizon, as certain macroeconomic risks may persist for a longer
period without the models being able to adequately reflect their risks. The overlays are shown in the table below and split
according to the relevant categories.

Other special risk factors in the corporate segment
For the corporate segment, the additional risk was considered using the Special Risk Factors (SRF) framework, primarily
accounting for unmodelled macroeconomic effects but also covering environmental risks as well as temporary compensations
of model weaknesses. The SRF model is based on expected downgrades of corporate clients due to the mentioned
circumstances.
At the end of 2024, the macroeconomic effects taken into account in special risk factors were high interest rate environment,
inflation, real estate revaluation risks, supply chain disruptions, labour market disruptions, increased refinancing risk and the
effects of changing environmental factors. Compared to the end of 2023, the Group has discontinued the creation of overlays
covering for spill-over effect of energy price increases and has increased the focus on real estate market trends as well as risks
stemming from repricing in the elevated interest rate environment, elevated refinancing risk and environmental impact
changes. New elements were introduced in 2024: environmental risks were also incorporated in the SRF model and modelled
ECL was complemented in 2024 by additional impairment in form of an add-on overlay for expected life-time correction in
case of revolving and prolonged deals.
For corporate customers, in 2024 additional stage 1 and 2 impairments were recognized for macroeconomic risks in the
amount of HUF 13,447 million (compared to HUF 9,665 million in 2023), thereof HUF 10,054 million attributed to the economic
environment characterized by high inflation, increased interest rates, and uncertainties in the labour and real estate markets,
HUF 1,634.7 million for ESG risks and HUF 1,758.7 million for expected life-time add-on. At the core of the SRF model for
macroeconomic risks lies the identification of relationship between industries and the currently existing risk triggers as well as
evaluation of the severity of the connection resulting in an industry-level risk score. The additional impairment need is driven by
the scoring of the industries as well as the composition of the portfolio. In 2024, the portfolio-slice mostly targeted by SRF
addition was the real estate and other specialized lending project portfolio, but significant overlay was created for
construction, chemicals, automotive and agriculture segments as well.
Post model adjustments in the retail segment
The Group consistently applies post-model adjustments to address credit risks in its retail and small business portfolios that
are not covered by the quantitative and qualitative stage criteria and models used for impairment calculations, thereby
avoiding under-provisioning in these segments. In case of post-model adjustments, the affected deals are placed under a
lifetime impairment calculation, into stage 2, and are assigned a higher probability of default (PD) parameter. The Hungarian
economy has faced significant challenges in recent years, resulting in a decline in consumer spending, demand for goods and
services, and a general economic downturn. Last year, the Group continued to identify the riskiest industries and to apply
stricter lending standards to companies operating in these industries. In addition, the retail lending policy has also followed the
tightening of lending rules in the small business segment. The Group has regularly reviewed the post-model adjustment
introduced for these portfolios in its monitoring processes, but has not yet seen sufficient justification for its full phase-out in
2024 due to the slow economic recovery.

· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

Consolidated financial statements
In 2024 and 2023, the effect of the changes in some of the estimation methodologies in the retails segments to the expected
credit loss allowance is presented in the column ‘Changes due to update in the methodology for estimation, net’. For the details
about the changes in the methodology please see the note ‘Effect of the COVID-19 on the credit risk management’.
The total of this year’s movements in expected credit losses include – within changes due to change in credit risk – in addition
to impairment presented in the line item ‘Impairment losses on financial assets’ the adjustments to the net exposure of credit-
impaired (Stage 3) financial assets arising from the net interest calculation, which is presented in the line item ‘Interest income
calculated with the effective interest method’ in profit or loss (2024: HUF 4,242 million, 2023: HUF 2,872 million) as well as
decrease in loss allowances due to sale of exposures presented in profit or loss line item ‘Net gains/losses from derecognition
of financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value through profit or loss’ (2024: HUF 2,604 million, 2023: HUF 2,679
million).
Besides the above, the profit or loss line item ’Impairment losses on financial assets’ includes amounts derecognised due to
write-offs (2024: HUF 892 million, 2023: HUF 1,426 million) as well as the increase in profit from recoveries on purchased or
originated credit-impaired financial assets (2024: HUF 1,088 million, 2023: HUF 1,419 million). The Group continues to perform
collection activities in relation to its certain written-off financial assets. The contractual receivable amount from such financial
assets amounts to HUF 2,891 million (2023: HUF 2,726 million).
Contract modifications and expected credit losses
Also in 2024 , there were contract modifications which did not lead to the derecognition of the financial asset. The pre-
modification amortised cost of financial assets so modified and for which lifetime expected credit loss was recognised,
amounted to HUF 140,569 million (2023: HUF 136,619 million), the associated net modification loss amounted to HUF 2,019 million
(2023: HUF 5,045 million) the largest portion of which was the loss arising from changes in present value of cash-flows of
transactions affected by the interest cap (2024: HUF 2,052 million, 2023: HUF 5,246 million).
Loans with renegotiated terms
Loans with renegotiated terms are loans which were restructured due to the deterioration of the financial situation of the
borrower. In such cases original contractual terms are modified to help the borrower overcome financial difficulties.
The definition of renegotiation (forborne) used by the Group is based on EBA (EU) regulation 227/2015.
Non-retail: all types of receivables due from corporate and municipality clients and fiscal institutions may be subject to
renegotiations (loans, current account facilities, bonds, guarantees, factoring facilities and other financial assets).
The Group regards its non-retail contracts to be restructured, where a forced renegotiation of the contractual terms occurs
due to financial difficulties, where concessions are granted by the Group to the borrower under the modified contract which it
would not grant to other borrowers in the normal course of the business, with regards to the financial difficulties of the
borrower, in order to achieve full recovery.
Typical concession measures: extending the term, converting a revolving loan into an amortising loan, granting concession
period, standstill agreement, capitalisation of interests, favourable pricing, exempting from financial covenants, forgiveness of
principal or interest, conversion of the old transaction. In practice, similarly to the previous years, the most common concession
measures were the restructuring of terms and repayment amounts and conversion into an amortising loan.
The Group will restructure clients entering moratorium 2 launched in 2021 and the agricultural moratorium launched in 2022, as
set out in the NBH's Management Circular, on the basis of individual risk monitoring on the corporate side, based on a specific
assessment of the potential deterioration of the financial situation. Exceptions include transactions that participated in the
first and second moratorium for less than 9 months in total, according to the EBA's updated report on the moratorium in
December. If a client has ever had even a single transaction that has spent more than 9 months in the first and second
moratorium in total, the Group carried out a risk monitoring assessment for it in case of entering into moratorium 2 launched in
2021.
Customers participating in moratorium 2 in 2021 or in the agricultural moratorium in 2022 were already classified as stage 2 or
stage 3 and were automatically marked as restructured. Considering that the transactions that were included in moratorium 1
(launched in 2020) with a final expiration date in 2020 were automatically included in moratorium 2 (launched in 2021), for those
clients that indicated during the risk monitoring process that they did not exercise the option of moratorium 2 for any of their
transactions and that declared their withdrawal from moratorium 2, the Group did not identify any financial difficulties and did
not mark the transaction as restructured. For all new entrants, the Group carried out a risk monitoring assessment and on the
basis of that assessment, the Bank reclassified the client as a restructured client in case of financial difficulties.
During moratorium 3 launched in 2021 and moratorium 4 launched in 2022, the Group identified all transactions as restructured
and classified them at least to stage 2. At the start of moratorium 4 in 2022, the performing exposures – which were at that
time classified to stage 2 and identified as restructured – were repaid. The remaining clients participating in the moratoria
were classified to stage 3 and designated as non-performing restructured.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
Consolidated financial statements
58
In 2023, no changes occurred in the assessment of clients affected by the moratoria. By the reporting date in 2023 all payment
moratoria expired.
All types of retail loans (personal loans, credit cards, current account facilities, mortgages) might be subject to renegotiations.
The two main types of renegotiations:
· variations of renegotiations determined by the Group;
· government programs.
The contract shall be regarded as associated with a concession, i.e., forborne based on the above, if
· the borrower is in financial difficulty and
· the terms and conditions of the contract were modified to grant a concession to the borrower (in the form of
conversion or modification) that the Group would not grant to borrowers in normal financial situations.
A contract can be regarded as forborne – regardless of the modified conditions or actual past due status – if in course of the
contract modification the Group is granting a concession and the borrower had at least once during the 3 months prior to the
contract modification contractual payments more than 30 days past due or the borrower was in a more than 30 days
delinquency at the date of contract modification or other factors are present evidencing the client’s financial difficulties.
Exposures associated with concessions (forborne exposures) are regarded by the Group as restructured in accordance with the
Decree 39/2016 of NBH.
Restructured loan exposures of the Group as at the reporting date are presented in the following tables:

Write-off of loans
Loans (and related loss allowances) are typically written off partially or in full when there are no realistic prospects of
recovering principal amount and, in case of collateralised loans, when cash inflows from foreclosure of the collateral were
received and further recovery from the loan is realistically no longer expected.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

Consolidated financial statements
Collaterals
According to the credit policy of the Group, the repayment capabilities of the borrower are considered in the course of lending
instead of excessively relying on collaterals. Depending on the credit standing of the customer and on product type, certain
facilities may be uncollateralised. Nevertheless, collaterals are important factors in credit risk mitigation.
As a general principle, when calculating collateral coverage, the Group only considers collateral which is defined in the
Raiffeisen Bank International Group Collateral Evaluation and Management (Functional regulations) and complies with all of
the following requirements:
· legal enforceability;
· sustainable intrinsic value;
· realisable and willingness to realise;
· little or no correlation between the credit standing of the borrower and the value of the collateral.
The allocated Weighted Collateral Value (WCV) is the discounted fair value of the collaterals, reduced by prior ranking liens,
capped at the contractually pledged amount, applying a discount for currency mismatch (Hfx), and limited by the amount of
the covered contractual exposure.
The major types of collaterals accepted are as follows: mortgage on property, cash deposits, securities, pledge on machinery,
pledge on inventories, commodities, sureties and guarantees and other comfort factors.
Collateral and Risk Process Management Division of Credit Risk Management Department is responsible for the processes
related to collaterals (valuation and regular revaluation, real estate on-site visits, checking physical existence, monitoring of
coverage requirements, etc.).
The values of collaterals by type – represented by WCV capped at the value of the receivables – are presented in the following

Securitization
Securitization represents a particular form of refinancing and credit risk enhancement under which risks from loan agreements
are packaged into portfolios and placed with capital market investors. The objective of the Group’s securitization transactions
is to relieve Group’s regulatory total capital and to use additional refinancing sources.
No transfer of asset happens under synthetic securitization, no asset, only the risk is transferred from the initiator’s balance
sheet. The risk transfer is carried out by credit derivatives or guarantees.
The Group signed a portfolio guarantee agreement commencing on 23 December 2022. The synthetic transaction is split into a
senior, a mezzanine and a junior tranche. The credit risk of the mezzanine tranche is guaranteed by institutional investors,
while the credit risk of the junior and senior tranches is retained by the Group. In 2023 and in 2024, no new transactions
occurred.

(6.3) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in
market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk.
Management of market risk
The objective of market risk management is to control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing
the return.
VaR (Value at Risk) limit system is operated by RBI where separate VaR limits are assigned to the different risk types: interest
rate risk of the trading book, interest rate risk of the banking book, equity price risk of the trading book, volatility risk and the
risk relating to the Group’s aggregate foreign currency open position. Additionally, credit spread risk between bonds and
money market products is indicated as an individual risk factor in the reports as well.
During the past couple of years audit and control functions within the Group became much stricter than before. New reports
were implemented for market risk related risk types. The Group is carrying out daily market conformity monitoring activity, and
the results are presented on a regular basis to the Management.
The Group developed various stress tests the results of which are also regularly presented to the Management.
The Group manages its market risk exposure separately within trading and non-trading portfolios.
Trading portfolio includes positions arising from market-making, proprietary position-taking and other positions so designated
by the Group that are valued based on mark-to-market pricing method. Trading activities include transactions with debt and
equity securities, foreign currencies and derivative financial instruments.
Non-trading portfolio (banking book) includes positions that arise from the interest rate management of the Group ’s retail and
commercial banking assets and liabilities. The Group's non-trading activities encompass all activities other than accounted for
as trading transactions, including lending, accepting deposits, and issuing debt instruments.
A special interest rate model was introduced for the products in the banking book with no maturity, which was integrated also
into the risk reports.
Exposure to interest rate risk – trading and banking book
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of
changes in market interest rates. Interest rate risk is measured by the sensitivity analysis of the banking book’s net interest
income and of the mark-to-market value of the trading book to the volatility of interest rates.
Interest rate exposure is the most significant risk factor in the banking and trading book portfolios. On Group level, strict Basis
Point Value limits and Value-at-risk (VaR) limits are defined, which are monitored on a daily basis.
The Group’s interest-bearing financial instruments per interest type at the reporting dates are as follows:
Interest bearing financial instruments
The below tables include interest bearing non-derivative financial assets and liabilities measured at amortized cost and at fair
value. The amounts are net carrying amounts.

Changes are explained as follows:
· Fixed interest rate assets increased by HUF 498 billion (receivables due from NBH decreased by HUF 43 billion, loans
to customers decreased by HUF 2 billion and receivables from credit institutions decreased by HUF 28 billion, whereas
the amount of fixed interest rate securities increased by HUF 537 billion).
· In case of fixed interest rate liabilities, an increase of HUF 87 billion was observed (borrowings from NBH decreased
by HUF 6 billion, interbank borrowings banks decreased by HUF 30 billion, while customer deposits increased by HUF
102 billion and MREL bonds increased by HUF 19 billion).
· The balance of variable interest rate assets decreased by HUF 261 billion (the most significant changes were: the
nostro account balance at NBH decreased by HUF 418 billion, and EUR denominated loans to customers increased by
HUF 122 billion.
· The balance of variable interest rate liabilities increased by HUF 115 billion (of which the most significant change was
observed in case of client deposits: HUF deposits increased by HUF 183 billion, EUR deposits decreased by HUF 30
billion and USD deposits decreased by HUF 41 billion).
In order to ensure that interest rate risk exposures are maintained within acceptable limits, the Group uses interest rate swaps
and other interest rate derivative agreements as primary risk management techniques.
The Group uses derivatives designated in qualifying hedge relationships to hedge the fair value of certain fixed interest rate
loans, fixed interest rate deposits and fixed interest rate issued and purchased bonds. The Group also has contracts to
manage its exposure to interest rate risk which are not designated in qualifying hedge relationships. The Group presents
interests on derivative financial instruments – regardless of whether they are used for trading or for risk management
purposes – in ’ Net interest income’. The Group presents gains/losses on fair valuation (excluding accrued interest) in case of
derivatives not involved in hedge accounting in the profit or loss line item ’ Net trading income and fair value result ’ and in case
of derivatives involved in hedge accounting in the profit or loss line item ’ Net gains/losses from hedge accounting’.
For risk management purposes, the Group uses interest rate swaps involved in portfolio cash flow hedge accounting, where
the hedged portfolio is a group of foreign and local currency assets and liabilities, and the purpose of the hedge is to eliminate
the fluctuation of the interest income and expense that arises from changes in the base rates and the fluctuation of the
Hungarian forint exchange rate.
Information about the cash flow hedging instruments is included in note (10) Net gains/losses from hedge accounting.
Exposure to currency risk
Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in
foreign exchange rates. When calculating exposures to currency risk, the Group takes the entire open position into account.

Net open position on balance sheet includes fair valuation adjustments due to interest rate risk on hedged items designated in
hedging relationships, whereas only notionals of derivatives are presented in the line ’Net derivative and spot position ’. During
2024, a total fair value adjustment of net HUF 9 billion was recognised in the carrying amounts of hedged bonds, accounted for
in EUR.
The Group defines strict limits for the open positions and uses VaR indicators as well. These limits are monitored on a daily
basis.
Risk factors related to the foreign currency options are reflected in FX VaR figures. For derivatives related to options (gamma
and vega), additional limits are defined and monitored by the Group on a daily basis.
Exposure to other price risk – trading book
Other price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in
market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk), whether those changes are caused by factors
specific to the individual financial instrument or its issuer, or factors affecting all similar financial instruments traded in the
market.
The Group’s exposure to other price risk only arises from exposures to exchange traded equity instruments. The Group defines
strict limits for open equity exposures and uses price risk VaR as well. These limits are monitored on a daily basis.

Tools for managing market risk – trading book and banking book
Value at risk
The principal tool used to measure and control market risk exposure within the Group’s trading and banking portfolio is Value
at Risk (VaR). A VaR indicator shows the maximum loss of a financial instrument under a given period and confidence level,
within normal course of business. The VaR model used by the Group is based upon a 99 percent confidence level and assumes a
10-days holding period in case of trading book and a 250-days holding period in case of banking book. The VaR is a risk
indicator which must be assigned to the distribution of possible losses of the financial instrument. The Group applies Monte
Carlo VaR calculation. Considering the trading book products, they can be divided into three risk factors – foreign currency,
interest and equity price – and risks are grouped according to this categorization.
VaR is not the sum of every single component (foreign currency risk, interest rate risk and equity price risk) as there is a
correlation between the components (diversification effect). Diversification effect results in a reduction of the overall risk of a
portfolio given that the individual risk components do not move together. Foreign currency risk, other price risk and interest
rate risk do not correlate with each other perfectly, thus diversification effect exists. The VaR figure is calculated on a daily
basis on the fundamental factors separately and on the entire group of factors as well. Diversification effect is not taken into
consideration by the Group in case of capital requirement calculations.
A summary of the VaR positions representing the market risk exposure of the Group’s trading and banking book is presented in
the tables below:

The reason of the increase of the banking book’s VaR position is that the Group established a significant strategic interest
position that resulted in openness at the end of the year as well.
Gap and BPV report
Besides measuring VaR, interest rate risk is also estimated by using classical means of principal and interest maturity analysis.
In the gap report, the assets and liabilities are shown in different repricing categories according to the expected repricing
dates.
Repricing of assets or liabilities occurs when:
· they fall due;
· part of the principal is repaid according to the contract;
· the interest is repriced in accordance with the contract, based on a reference rate;
· the assets or liabilities are repaid before maturity.
The interest-bearing off-balance sheet items are managed as nominal deposits and loans.
The difference between assets and liabilities in the same repricing category is called a ‘gap’. The gap in a particular category is
positive when interest rate risk of assets exceeds that of liabilities, and negative in the opposite case. For the different
repricing categories, interest rate sensitivities, i.e., basis point values (BPV) are assigned. BPV shows the changes in the present
value of a certain repricing category’s position due to a 1 basis point parallel shift of the yield curve. BPV limits which were
approved by the parent bank are assigned for the repricing categories by currency.
BPV reports are presented in the below tables:

Netting arrangement related to derivative instruments
Derivative instruments are classified as assets if their fair values are positive and as liabilities if their fair values are negative.
According to IAS 32.42 derivative assets and liabilities arising from different transactions could only be presented net in the
statement of financial position, if the transactions are concluded with the same counterparty, an enforceable right exits to
offset the amounts presented and the parties intend to settle the cash-flows net. The netting arrangement concluded by the
Group are enforceable only in certain circumstances and as a result financial assets and liabilities are presented gross in the
statement of financial position.

(6.4) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with its financial liabilities.
Managing liquidity risk
The objective of liquidity management is to provide the necessary liquidity for the Group to meet its liabilities when due at all
times, under both normal and stressed conditions.
Liquidity risk management is a key priority in RBI Group as well as in Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. , thereby the Group has a
comprehensive set of group-standards of the Group and local internal rules, regulations and practices beside the legal
regulations regarding liquidity requirements. Liquidity management procedures, tasks, responsibilities, reports and instructions
for the limit systems are all governed in Management directives of the Group.
Liquidity management is one of the main tasks of the Asset Liability Committee (ALCO). ALCO is responsible for asset and
liability management, liquidity risk management and setting local limit system according to (or sometimes stricter than) the
limits determined by RBI Liquidity Risk Management. The ALCO meets monthly and has extraordinary meetings if necessary.
Besides internal liquidity risk reporting, RBI prepares a liquidity report based on data provided by the Group on a daily basis in
order to monitor group wide liquidity risk.
The Group’s liquidity policy which includes the liquidity contingency plan is reviewed annually. The Group ’s liquidity position is
stable, its liquidity risk exposure is low. The Group does not use stand-by loan commitments for liquidity management
purposes, sufficient level of liquidity reserve is available without such commitments.
The following table shows the undiscounted cash flows from the Group’s non-derivative financial liabilities, loan commitments
and issued financial guarantee contracts on the basis of their earliest possible maturity. The table also shows a maturity
analysis for derivative financial liabilities including the remaining contractual maturities for those derivatives for which
contractual maturities are essential for the understanding of the timing of the cash flows. The gross nominal outflow disclosed
in the following tables is the remaining contractual, undiscounted cash flow from the Group’s non-derivative financial liabilities,
loan commitments and the issued financial guarantees. The disclosure for derivatives shows a gross inflow and outflow
amount for derivatives.

(6.5) Operational risk
Operational risk is the risk of direct or indirect loss arising from a wide variety of causes associated with the Group’s processes,
personnel, technology, and infrastructure, and from external factors other than pure credit, market and liquidity risks.
Operational risk also includes risks arising from non-compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and generally
accepted standards of corporate behaviour. These risk types are inherent in each of the Group ’s business and internal
supporting activities.
The Group’s objective is to manage operational risk so as to balance the avoidance of financial losses and damage to the
Group’s reputation with overall cost effectiveness and to avoid control procedures that restrict initiative and creativity.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
Consolidated financial statements
70
The Group has an Operational Risk Management network consisting of a separate Operational Risk Controlling Group and a
centralised Fraud Risk Controlling Group and approximately 100 dedicated Operational Risk Specialists located in business
units, support departments, regions and at subsidiaries.
Operational Risk Controlling applies different tools to identify risks across all departments: key risk indicators; scenarios; control
and risk self-assessment; loss data collection and external databases.
The processes above are used to help identify risks early and are needed to reduce the occurrence of future loss events. The
loss events are uploaded by the dedicated operational risk specialists into a loss database and based on this and other
supplementary information (e.g., key risk indicators, status of risk mitigation plans), quarterly reports are created by
Operational and Fraud Risk Controlling.
Operational and Fraud Risk Controlling gets strong management support. Operational risk issues and possible mitigation
measures are discussed quarterly at the Operational Risk and Fraud Committee meetings where the Chief Executive Officer,
the Chief Financial Officer, the Chief Risk Officer, the Chief Operations Officer, the Retail Banking Board member, the Corporate
Banking Board member and other members of the Committee (mainly heads of departments) are attended and decide on the
priority of risk mitigation plans. RBI CRO receives information about the most relevant Operational Risk issues through the CRO
meeting.
(6.6) Environmental, social and governance risks
Our planet, the biodiversity and the quality of our life is largely impacted by the natural factors making up the biological
system. The business activity of the financial sector has a significant impact on the environment and on society. However, this
is a two-way relationship, the finance sector itself is also affected by environmental and social factors. The two most
significant environmental effects of these times are climate change and biodiversity loss.
In terms of defining environmental, social and governance (ESG) risks, the Group follows EBA’s position and take on a prudential
view when it comes to ESG, elaborating on the risks related to it, i.e. ‘ESG risks materialize when the ESG factors affecting
institutions’ counterparties have a negative impact on the financial performance or solvency of such market players’.  As ESG
refers to environmental, social and governance aspects, the Group identifies the following risks from these aspects. The
detailed information about ESG related topics is disclosed in the separate and consolidated non-financial statement.
Key considerations of ESG risks
Environmental risks
Environmental risks are driven by environmental factors. They should be understood as the financial risks posed by the
institutions’ exposures to counterparties that may both potentially contribute to or be affected by climate change and other
forms of environmental degradation (such as air pollution, water pollution, scarcity of fresh water, land contamination,
biodiversity loss and deforestation).
The Group identifies environmental risks as a result of the following factors:
· Transition-related risks: regulatory, technological and market changes that generate changes in the lending and
other risks arising in the course of banking activities related to climate change, environmental pollution and water
ecological processes.
· Physical risks: acute or chronic environmental events related to climate change, environmental pollution and aquatic
ecological processes that directly endanger the physical integrity and security of assets and/or customers financed
in the course of banking activities, thereby affecting their operability, income-generating capacity and value, as well
as the security of supply chains. Acute physical risks include: floods, storms, droughts, forest fires. Chronic physical
risks include: desertification, sea level rise, air and water quality, permanent deterioration of water volumes, and
persistent increase in temperature.
Social risks
Social risks arise from financial impact generated by misuse of human capital such the rights, well-being and interests of
people and communities.
Governance risks
Governance risks refer to the governance practice of the institutions’ counterparties, including the inclusion of ESG factors in
policies and procedures under the governance of the counterparties.
These risks affect:
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

Consolidated financial statements
· the value of the companies' assets, business model, income-generating capacity, supply chains, investable resources,
regulatory environment;
· household income, expenditure, and the value of their assets;
· and at the macroeconomic level, the value of capital assets, investment needs, productivity and competitiveness
levels, consumer preferences, and the related operation of public finances, interest rates and exchange rates.
These changes may be reflected in the Group's operations as follows:
· credit risk: increased defaults, depreciation of collateral;
· market risk: unexpected changes in asset price movements that are difficult to predict;
· operational risk: vulnerabilities in supply chains, physical operational risks;
· liquidity risk: increased liquidity needs, refinancing risk;
· reputational risks: reputational damage due to inadequate management of the above, risks of being painted ‘green’.
Risk framework
The Group takes these risks into account in its risk frameworks over different time horizons as follows:
Short term
Individual risks
The Group implicitly takes into account the mentioned risks in the corporate customer base during the annual review and
credit approval process. In 2023, a modification of the lending process was introduced, in the course of which the Group
explicitly analyses the environmental assessment of the customer and the loan objective on the business side ('ESG expert
opinion') and presents the identifiable environmental risk profile ('ESG risk assessment') as a separate part of the risk manager's
position on the risk side.
The Group conducts an increasing number of surveys to its customers in order to obtain access to their sustainability data (in
the form of an electronic questionnaire). In the survey, in addition to estimated and factual data related to GHG emissions, the
Group collects data on water and land use; waste production and environmental pollution characteristics. In addition to short-
term consideration, these data also serve as input for the assessment of medium-term (ESG score) and long-term (climate
scenarios). The Group has taken note of the National Bank of Hungary's recommendation for a customer questionnaire in this
regard and will supplement its own questions with the minimum set of questions recommended, in the future, keeping in mind
the deadlines set.
The Group is making efforts to obtain energy performance data for collaterals. Where the legal environment allows, it is a
mandatory condition to provide the related certificates in the case of new funding, and in the case of existing funding and/or
in the absence of a legal obligation, data collection is carried out on a ‘best effort’ basis within targeted campaigns.
The Group has implemented sector-wide lending policies to define sustainability financing conditions. By the end of 2024, it has
established clear lending policies in the following sectors: tobacco, coal, renewable energy, oil and gas; steel, nuclear energy,
real estate and construction and related raw materials.
Portfolio risks
With the help of scientific methodologies (PCAFs) and estimates, measurements were made regarding the financed GHG
intensity of the corporate customer base, which is published in the separate and consolidated non-financial statement for
2024 as the first time, section ‘E1-6: Gross scopes 1, 2, 3 and total GHG emissions’.
For the corporate segment the additional risk arising from ESG factors was considered using the Special Risk Factors (SRF)
Framework, primarily to account for unmodelled macroeconomic effects but also to cover environmental risks as a temporary
compensations of the model weaknesses. More details are disclosed under note (6.2) Credit risk.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

Mid-term
Individual risks
In 2022, the Group introduced an ESG scoring system to assess customers in a standardized way from the environmental
perspective. The model was developed by the parent company (RBI), and its use is uniform for the medium-sized and large
corporate customers. The ESG score has no direct impact on the client's credit rating. The ESG model is based on an industry
base score, supplemented by an additional carbon dioxide emission factor. It is possible to deviate the industry average score
in this way in a positive or negative direction along individual customer specifics. During scoring, the risk analyst evaluates a
number of aspects based on the client's report, data reporting and disclosures, which, supplemented with the data of the
above-mentioned electronic questionnaire (where available), determines a final client score within the industry score limits. The
ESG score can provide guidance on the calibration of customers' expected environmental risks in the medium term, and as
such, it serves as input information for the above-mentioned sustainability assessments related to the lending process.
Portfolio risks
Based on the ESG Score mentioned above, the Group plans to introduce portfolio management tools in the future (sub-
portfolio level measurements, targets and limits), which will be broken down to a local level based on the parent company's
group-level limit management. In 2025, it is expected to introduce a monitoring process for the change in the average ESG
Score of the portfolio above 10%, as well as for the maximum amount of the part of the portfolio with the worst ESG Score.
Regarding the Group’s ambitions towards the 2015 Paris Agreement climate targets, the Group committed to reducing its
financed GHG emissions by 17% by the end of 2030, based on the level measured at the end of 2023. The objective for the
corporate client portfolio has been formulated as an overarching target and was approved by the Board of Directors. In the
coming years, this effort is expected to be further developed and detailed sector-specific goals may be developed.
Long-term
Portfolio risks
A long-term Climate Stress Test has been prepared at the level of the RBI Group and its subsidiaries, taking into account the
above-mentioned customer and collateral sustainability data, along the scenarios defined by the EBA. The Group's results have
been completed by the end of 2024, which examined the long-term impact of climate risks on the Group's profitability and
capital adequacy in each scenario. The results show that the Group is not exposed to significant risk overall over the
2030-40-50 time horizon, but there are portfolios that are more vulnerable under certain scenarios.
Reference to the non-financial disclosure
During the reporting period, it was determined that there are no financially material risks from climate change to the regular
risk parameters (market risk, credit risk, operational risk, and liquidity risk). The effects of climate change are only observed
through scenario analyses over longer periods. The effects from climate risks are incorporated into risk measurement and
limitation. Further information on the nature, extent and mitigation of climate change risk are available in the separate and
consolidated non-financial statement’s chapter IRO-1: ‘Process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities’.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty and critical accounting judgments
In the double materiality analysis for the separate and consolidated non-financial statement in 2024, the financial materiality
of sustainability matters was considered in the short, medium, and long-term. In the short term, defined as the reporting
period of the consolidated financial statements, it was assessed that there were no financially material risks from
sustainability matters. As a result, the consolidated financial statements do not include any separate disclosure on
sustainability related uncertainties that materially affect the estimation assumptions. In the long term, which is considered as
ten years onwards, there is also a low chance of a material impact on the credit risk of our customer portfolio due to climate
change transition risk. For more details, please see the separate and consolidated non-financial statement’s chapter IRO-1:
‘Process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities’.
(6.7) Capital management
The Group’s local regulator (National Bank of Hungary (NBH)) sets and monitors capital requirements for the Group.
With effect from 1 January 2008, the Group is required to comply with the provisions of the Basel II framework in respect of
regulatory capital. The same stands for the Basel III requirements with effect from 30th June 2014.
The Group as a member of Raiffeisen Bank International has been granted a joint approval in December 2008 by the Austrian
Financial Market Authority (home regulator) and the eight-member countries’ host authorities to adopt the use of Internal
Rating Based approach to credit risk management, except in respect of some credit portfolios which remain under standard
approach according to the accepted implementation plan.
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024
73
Consolidated financial statements
Principal changes arising from the introduction of Basel III advanced approach were as follows:
· reduction of own funds with the negative difference between loss allowances and provisions for credit losses and
expected loss;
· addition of the positive difference between loss allowances and provisions for credit losses and expected loss up to
0.6% of the amount of risk-weighted exposure (under IRB approach) to tier 2 capital;
· own funds should cover the capital requirement of credit, market and operational risk.
A Group’s own funds can be split into two tiers:
· Tier 1 capital (T1),
· common tier 1 capital (CET1) which includes common tier 1 capital instruments (share capital, share
premium, retained earnings, accumulated other comprehensive income, other reserves) and the related
deductions, namely deductions related to intangible assets, goodwill, deferred tax assets, IRB shortfall of
credit risk adjustment to expected loss, deductions due to securitization positions, and other deduction
due to exceeding limits,
· additional tier 1 capital (AT1): which includes capital instruments eligible as additional tier1 capital.
· Tier 2 capital (T-2), which includes subordinated loans and the excess of loss allowances and provisions for credit
losses over expected losses in case of loan portfolios for which the Basel III IRB method is applied.
There are also restrictions as to whether the amount of surplus of loss allowances and provisions for credit losses over
expected losses that may be included as part of tier 2 capital. Other deductions from own funds include the book value of
qualifying interests in other financial institutions.
Banking operations are categorised as either trading book or banking book transactions. Risk-weighted assets are determined
according to specified requirements that seek to reflect the varying levels of risk attached to assets and off-balance sheet
exposures. As noted above, the Basel II/III capital requirement also introduced a new requirement in respect of operational risk.
The Group ’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to
sustain future development of the business. The impact of the level of capital on shareholders’ return is also important. The
Bank recognises the need to maintain a balance between the higher returns that might be possible with higher gearing and
the advantages and security from a sound capital position.
The Group has complied with all regulatory capital requirements throughout the year of 2024. The capital position of the Group
remained at a sound level throughout the year, aligned with its’ risk appetite.
Regulatory capital requirement
The Group’s policy is to maintain the capital adequacy continuously above the required level and take any necessary actions on
time. The Group applies regulatory capital (Basel III Pillar 1) as well as economic capital (Basel III Pillar 2, ICAAP) for calculating
capital adequacy. The Group started a gradual transition to calculating capital requirements for credit risk via the Internal
Rating Based (IRB) approach, first introducing the Foundation Internal Ratings Based (F-IRB) approach for its non-retail portfolio
on 1st December 2008. Starting from July 2010 and April 2012, capital requirement for exposures to individuals and Micro-SME
customers respectively are measured by advanced IRB (A-IRB) method. Above the regulatory minimum capital requirement, the
Group needs to keep additional capital for the following capital buffers: systemic risk buffer, capital conservation buffer,
systemically important institution buffer.
Systemically important institution buffer
The National Bank Hungary (NBH) reassessed in 2024 as well the importance of the domestic credit institutions based on 2023
year end data, and according to the assessment 7 Banking Group have been flagged as Other Systemically Important
Institutions (O-SII), including Raiffeisen Group.
Already from 2022, the NBH has been expected a gradual rebuilding of the buffers required for systemically important
institutions – which were released due to the extraordinary economical conditions caused by the coronavirus pandemic – until
2024. The capital positions of the systemically important banks are still adequate for the NBH to determine the buffers
prescribed from 2022 in line with the previously determined increasing pattern. Accordingly, the temporary buffer rates
increased also in 2024 by half of the planned final level and reached their target level in 2024. Accordingly, the planned final
amount will remain in force in 2025.

Anti-cyclical capital buffer
On 30 June 2022 the NBH activated the anti-cyclical buffer in their communication, in order to mitigate the systematic risks in
the lending and housing market. The NBH has been measuring a significant overpricing in the real estate market for the
quarters before June 2022, coupled with an increase of risks in the banking sector related to lending activities. Even though the
uncertainties in the past few months related to the war situation, these risks still did not moderate, so it became justified to
support the resistance of the banks with regulatory actions. Therefore, NBH’s Financial Stability Council increased the capital
requirements for banks and from 1 July 2024 it increased the ratio of the anti-cyclical buffer – for the first time since its
introduction 6 years ago – to 0.5%.

Capital allocation
The allocation of capital between specific operations and activities is primarily driven by the aim to ensure sufficient capital to
cover possible risks in order to guarantee continuous safe banking operation (going concern principle) as well as to cover
occasionally high losses eventually to be incurred in extreme market circumstances, and secondarily, to optimise return on
equity of the Group.
In order to quantify the risks, the Group calculates capital both required by regulation and required economically, and
optimization is based on economic capital requirements.
The process of allocating capital to specific operations and activities is undertaken by Credit Risk Reporting and ICAAP Unit of
IRD, which is subject to review by the Group’s Management. An additional tool for optimal capital allocation is the application
of risk and equity cost-based pricing.
The Group’s principles in respect of capital management and allocation are regularly reviewed by the Board of Directors.

Net interest income of the Group decreased by HUF 13,675 million compared to the previous year. Both interest income and
interest expenses decreased, but the decrease in interest income was more significant.
There was a significant decline in interest income calculated with the effective interest method (a decrease of HUF 142,088
million), due to the lower interest rate environment and the Group reducing its interbank placements with the MNB.
The primary reason for the HUF 65,693 million decrease in interest expense calculated with the effective interest method was
the lower interest paid on customer deposits and interbank repo transactions.
Interest on securities measured at fair value through other comprehensive income improved interest income to a lesser extent,
with an increase of HUF 5,688 million.
Net interest income was significantly boosted by the interest income from derivatives (an improvement of HUF 29,441 million in
trading interest income), while the interest result on debt securities held for trading slightly reduced it (a decrease of HUF 499
million).
There was an increase of HUF 2,480 million in interest income from loans mandatorily measured at fair value through profit or
loss, thanks to the childbirth incentive loans.
Net interest income on derivative instruments designated in cash-flow and fair value hedging relationships also contributed to
the increase in interest income, with an increase of HUF 24,389 million.

Net fee and commission income of the Group increased by HUF 12,864 million compared to last year and this was primarily due
to increase in payment service fees (HUF 9,385 million).
Within payment service fees, commissions relating to transfers and other settlement transactions that increased
extraordinarily but the increase in bank card fees and in fees related to account maintenance was also outstanding.
Although to a lower extent, fees relating to distribution of securities (investment funds) and stock exchange orders, asset
management fees, fees included in foreign exchange conversions and other transactions and agent fees (fees for mediating
insurance services) also positively impacted net commission income.
The net fee and commission income decreased somewhat due to the Group receiving fewer corporate financial advisory fees
during 2024.

The result on derivatives held for trading increased by HUF 33,691 million. This was mainly due to an increase of HUF 33,156
million in realised and unrealised gains and losses on FX swaps, forwards and futures.
The result of the line ‘Derivative instruments – held for risk management (not in hedge accounting)’ increased by HUF 60,904
million, partly due to an increase of HUF 44,074 million in FX swaps, forwards and futures and an increase of HUF 16,830 million
in the result on interest rate derivatives.
The result of the ‘Debt securities’ line decreased by HUF 563 million compared to last year. In total: government bonds reduced
the result by HUF 450 million, other bonds by HUF 286 million and treasury bills improved the result by HUF 148 million.
The change in 'Other financial liabilities' was made based on consultation with the MNB, according to which the foreign
exchange result items related to spot conversion were reclassified under derivative transactions.

In 2024, a fair valuation result of HUF -6,560 million (in 2023 HUF 63,912 million) was recognised on purchased bond, HUF -1,946
million (in 2023 HUF -8,014 million) on hedged received deposits, HUF 3,059 million (in 2023 HUF 8,641 million) on hedged loans,
HUF -2,008 million (in 2023 HUF -6,129 million) on hedged own issued bonds thereof HUF 2,004 million (in 2023 HUF -6,070 million)
relates to MREL bonds. On hedged received deposit portfolio a fair valuation result of HUF -5,430 million (in 2023 HUF -111,174
million), in relation to hedged loan portfolio HUF 1,537 million (in 2023 HUF 13,010 million) was recognised.
During 2024, the forint interest rate swap curve steepened with significant intra-year volatility. The NBH cut the base rate from
10.75% to 6.5%, which brought the short end of the curve lower. However, long-term interest rate expectations increased, so
the 10-year swap rate increased from 5.78% to 6.84%. The net gain from hedge accounting in 2024 was primarily generated on
portfolio fair value hedges hedging the modelled current account balance. This was primarily due to maturity mismatches
between the modelled portfolios and the hedging interest rate swap portfolios.
Cash flow hedges
The Group has applied cash flow hedge accounting since December 2012, using interest rate swaps and cross currency interest
rate swaps to hedge interest rate risk and foreign currency risk arising from loan portfolio denominated in foreign currency
and received deposit portfolio denominated in HUF.

Discontinued hedges’ column: Amounts presented here arise from discontinued hedge relationships where the hedged cash flows are expected to occur. These amounts
are recognised to profit or loss as the hedged cash flows affect profit or loss or when it becomes known that the hedged cash flows are no longer expected to occur
(when the Group reclassifies the entire amount from equity to profit or loss).
The Group designates loan receivables and deposits received, denominated in HUF or in EUR, bearing variable interest rate,
having yearly or less than yearly payment frequencies as hedged items. Loan receivables designated as hedged items in cash
flow hedge relationships are presented in the statement of financial position line item ’Financial assets measured at amortised
cost’ and received deposits so designated are presented in the statement of financial position line item ’Financial liabilities
measured at amortised cost’.
In 2024, HUF 11,005 million loss (2023: HUF 10,550 million gain) was recognised in other comprehensive income relating to the
effective portion of fair value changes of hedging instruments designated in cash flow hedging relationships existing at
31.12.2024 or discontinued earlier. These amounts include reclassifications between other comprehensive income and profit or
loss arising from the systematic amortisation of hedge reserves to profit or loss, relating to cash flow hedging relationships
discontinued before 2024 or 2023 . In 2024, HUF 2,604 million gain (2023: HUF 244 million gain) was reclassified to profit or loss
relating to discontinued cash flow hedging relationships and the Group presented these amounts within ‘Net gains/losses from
hedge accounting’. During 2024, HUF 2,368 million loss (2023: HUF 326 million loss) was recognised in the same line relating to
the ineffectiveness of hedging instruments designated in cash flow hedging relationships existing at 31.12.2024.

Discontinued hedges’ column: The Group begins to amortise fair value adjustments to the carrying amounts of hedged items to profit or loss from the date when the
hedged items cease to be adjusted for changes in their fair values attributable to the risk being hedged, i.e., from the date when the hedge relationship is discontinued.
Carrying amounts of purchased bonds designated as hedged items in fair value hedge relationships are included in the
statement of financial position line item ‘Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income’ and
Financial assets measured at amortised cost’, carrying amounts of loan receivables so designated are included in the
statement of financial position line item ‘Financial assets measured at amortised cost’, whereas carrying amounts of deposits
and bonds issued so designated are included in the statement of financial position line item ‘Financial liabilities measured at
amortised cost’. Adjustments to the carrying amount of hedged loan and deposit portfolios for changes in their fair values
attributable to the hedged risk – excluding accrued interests – are presented separately in the statement of financial position,
in line item ’Fair value changes of the hedged items in portfolio hedge of interest rate risk’, regardless of their sign, the loan
portfolio related items are always on the asset side while the fair value of the deposit portfolio are always on the liability side.

Surtax of financial institutions is levied on the modified total assets as at the end of the second preceding tax year. Tax rate is
0.15%  for the portion of tax base not exceeding HUF 50 billion and 0.20% for the exceeding portion.  While calculating the
modified total assets, certain inter-bank loans and deposits and certain debt instruments issued by financial institutions are
deductible. The surtax amounted to HUF 7,956 million in 2024 (2023 : HUF 7,056 million).
In 2024, the Group paid extra profit tax based on  its modified profit before tax for the year 2022. The basis for the special tax
is the profit before tax for the year 2022, reduced by dividends received, the profit generated outside the scope of regular
activities, and increased by the surtax for financial organizations, the extra profit tax, and the transaction fee for the year
2022. The extra-profit tax rate in 2024 is 13% on the portion of the tax base not exceeding HUF 20 billion, and 30% on the
portion exceeding this amount. The extra-profit surtax amounted to HUF 17,216 million in 2024
In the first half of 2023, the tax base was 50% of the adjusted value of the 2022 revenue according to the local business tax,
with a tax rate of 8%. For the second half of 2023, the tax base was 50% of the adjusted value of the 2022 pre-tax profit, with
a tax rate of 13% on the portion of the tax base below HUF 10 billion and 30% on the portion above this amount. The extra
profit tax calculated in this manner amounted to HUF 27,960 million in 2023.
In accordance with the Act on Resolution, the Group pays a yearly membership fee to the Resolution Fund, the calculation
methodology of which is transparent and uniform across the European Union and is established by European Commission
Regulation. According to the regulation, yearly membership fees payable by the institutions are calculated by NBH acting in its
resolution capacity. NBH notifies the institutions of the fee payable until 1 May of each year. Yearly fees payable by the
institutions shall be determined so that the value of Resolution Fund’s assets until 31 December 2024 – spread evenly over that
period – reaches at least 1% of the portion of insured deposits not exceeding the EUR 100,000 indemnification threshold, placed
with credit institutions licensed in Hungary (target level). The Group qualifies as an institution obliged to pay a risk-based fee.
Risk-based fees are calculated so that the yearly target value, reduced by the fixed fees payable by limited activity investment
undertakings and by the progressive fixed fees, is allocated amongst the institutions obliged to pay a risk-based fee in
proportion of their fee base adjusted by a risk adjustment multiplier.
The Group recognized the payable extra surtax due to the pandemic as a liability in its entire amount, and paid that amount in
2020, so this liability is not presented in the financial statement at year end. Since the Group is entitled to a tax retention
related to the normal surtax until 2025, the Group did not present an expense against the liability for the extra surtax due to
the pandemic, but an asset (please see note (26) Other assets ). Considering the right for the tax retention, the payment
embodies an advance payment for the normal surtax.

Current account with National Bank of Hungary (NBH) contains the minimum mandatory reserves. The average balance of
prescribed minimum reserve was HUF 317,518 million (2023 : HUF 309,156 million). The amount of mandatory reserve is the
liabilities subject to reserving obligation multiplied by the minimum reserve rate.
Required reserves shall be kept in respect of the following liability categories:
· deposits and loans received with an original maturity within two years,
· debt securities with an original maturity within two years,
· repurchase agreements.
No required reserves shall be kept after liabilities owed to other credit institutions that are obliged to keep mandatory reserves
and after loans received from the NBH.
The Group can use its minimum reserve in its daily operation, as long as the daily balance and the monthly average balance of
the reserve is more than or equal to the legislative limit. Based on this reasoning the Group presents the minimum reserves as
cash in the cash-flow statement.

The Monetary Council decided on 21 November 2017 to introduce further non-conventional vehicles from January 2018. One of
these vehicles is the general, unconditional monetary policy interest rate swap (MIRS). The aim of introducing that vehicle was
that the loose monetary conditions also prevail on the longer-term section of the yield curve and to increase the proportion of
loans with longer fixed interest periods.
Banks could apply for 5 and 10-year MIRSs introduced as general monetary policy vehicle, at tenders written by NBH, in
proportion of their total assets. A difference compared to previous IRS programs of the central bank was that MIRS is
unconditional. The Group utilised the amount allocated. The application of the vehicle made it possible for the Group to
strengthen its fixed interest rate lending.
MIRS was concluded with the banks on terms announced by NBH which were more favourable than current market conditions.
Initial fair values of those derivatives were estimated using discounting based on yield curves built from quoted market prices
of IRS transactions with various terms, available at the date of announcement of the tenders. On initial recognition, the Group
recognised the difference between the fair value and the transaction price in profit or loss.
During 2018, the Group concluded MIRS interest rate swaps in a nominal amount of HUF 95,136 million, there were no new
transactions since that. As at 31.12.2024 , the carrying amount of these swaps was HUF 9,600 million asset (HUF 11,116 million
asset as at 31.12.2023). Fair valuation loss recognised in relation to MIRS's, amounting to HUF 805 million (HUF 14,178 million loss
in 2023) was presented in the statement of profit or loss line item Net trading income and fair value result.

The Group elected to measure its other equity instruments that it does not control at fair value through other comprehensive
income and as a consequence it never recognises changes in their fair values in profit or loss. The reason for this election is
that these interests do not serve the Group’s profit generation but facilitate the performance of various banking services (e.g.,
credit card business, payment transaction services, etc.).

Unlisted investment securities are included in the statement of financial position line item ’Financial assets measured at fair
value through other comprehensive income’. In 2024, changes in book values were due partly to changes in fair values and
partly to an increase in SWIFT through the reallocation of shares. In 2023, in addition to changes in fair values, there was also a
sale:, the investment in RC Gazdasági és Adótanácsadó Zrt was sold and with the sale HUF 21 million was reclassified from
other comprehensive income to retained earnings. The Group did not recognise dividend related to the above equity
instruments.

In the book value of ‘Intangible assets’, the Group recorded expenses of HUF 2,950 million in 2024 (2023: HUF 1,956 million).  In the
book value of “Intangible assets”, the Bank recorded expenses of HUF 2,950 million in 2024 (2023: HUF 1,956 million).  As of 31
December 2024 , ‘Property ’ includes HUF 22,321 million ( 2023: HUF 24,437 million) and ‘ Equipment’ includes HUF 1 million ( 2023: HUF
0 million) right-of-use assets.
The Group recognised expenses amounting to HUF 2,950 million in the carrying amount of intangible assets, in course of
developing intangible assets (2023: HUF 1,956 million). Hereof HUF 1,023 million is the goodwill on Raiffeisen Befektetési
Alapkezelő Zrt and HUF 12 million on SCT Kárász utca Kft. No impairment was recognised for goodwill.
(25) Leases
The Group acting as a lessee (IFRS 16)
The Group leases properties, typically office premises and branches and vehicles. Property lease contracts usually have a 3- or
5-year rental term, in respect of which 3- or 5-year extension options were agreed. In case of contracts with shorter term, 1- or
2-year extension options were agreed. The contracts with indefinite term have a one-year notice period.
The Group moved into a new head office in 2020. The contract for new head office was recognised in June 2020 with an
original term of 10 years considering a 5-year extension option, in the total amount of HUF 15,295 million. The present value was
calculated with an incremental borrowing rate of 2.28%.
The vehicles have 6 years of rental term in all cases, with no extension options.
Furthermore, the Group leases IT equipment, however they either qualify as short-term leases or the underlying asset is a low-
value asset, thus the Bank – based on its election – does not recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for them.
The Group has no sale and leaseback arrangements.
Right-of-use assets
Right-of-use assets related to leased properties and vehicles are presented within property and equipment (see not e (24)
Tangible and intangible fixed assets).

The Group as a lessor
The main activity of the leasing company is financial leasing under which vehicles, real estates and equipments are leased.
The leasing company continued its previously initiated strategy in 2024, in which, in addition to leasing financing of vehicle
and/or asset investments of medium and large corporate customers, increasing emphasis is placed on boosting leasing
services for the micro and small enterprise segment. In addition to its own sales channels, special emphasis is placed on
mobilizing the bank's medium and large corporate sales network and exploiting sales synergies related to common customers.
Due to the new sales channels the new business volume increased significantly.
The net investment in the lease according to the type of leasing activity is presented in the table below:

In 2024 the balance of other assets increased by HUF 256 million, mainly due to the increase of prepayments and accrued
income (HUF 662 million) and decrease in properties repossessed against receivables (HUF 421 million).
Within accruals, the active accrual of fees increased significantly (HUF 1,389 million), while the accrual of costs and expenses
decreased slightly (HUF 446 million). Additionally, the interest accruals related to securities received under reverse repurchase
agreements also decreased compared to the previous year (HUF 448 million).
The balance of other assets in 2024 increased slightly due to tax receivables. In 2020, due to the pandemic situation, the
government introduced a special surtax on credit institutions, which was paid in three equal instalments at that time.
Originally, the Group could have reduced the amount of the 'normal' surtax payable, as determined by the surtax law, by the
amount shown as receivables in the form of tax withholding over the next five years. However, due to an amendment to the
law, this reduction cannot be applied for the 2024 tax year and will instead be realized in the 6th tax year.
From its revenue under IFRS 15 the Group includes in its statement of financial position as accrued assets HUF 1,075 million
(2023: HUF  825 million).

securities issued. The purpose of the MREL (Minimum Requirement for Own Funds and Eligible Liabilities) issue was that the

amount. The bonds are callable at the optional call date, one year before maturity, their interest rate is fixed at inception,
becoming variable in later periods. During October-November 2024, the Group called back its MREL bonds maturing in 2025 and

tier 1 capital instrument (AT1 capital) according to Article 52 of Regulation (EU) No. 575/2013 (CRR) in the amount EUR 100 million.

any interests and any payments arising from any redemption or recall events specified in the contract are at the sole
discretion of the Group i.e., the Group has no contractual obligation to effect those payments, the amount received from the
issue is considered as equity and the interest paid on it is considered as dividend. The equity item is recognised in HUF in the
books. The Group is entitled to recall or repay in the events specified in the terms and conditions.
The Group issued a nominal value bond in amount of EUR 40,000,000 (200 pieces with a nominal value of EUR 200,000) named
as Raiffeisen EUR AT1 with value date of 25 January 2023. The bonds are additional basic capital instruments marketed

Contingent liabilities and commitments bear off-balance sheet credit risk as only the related fees, commissions and provisions
for future expected losses are included in the statement of financial position until fulfilment or expiry of such obligations. A
significant number of such off-balance sheet items expire without utilising them fully or partially. Consequently, the above
amounts do not represent future expected cash flows.
(42) Determination of fair value
In order to determine fair values of financial assets and liabilities for which no observable market prices are available, it is
necessary to apply valuation techniques in accordance with the accounting policies. In case of financial instruments traded
less frequently and whose prices are less transparent, fair value is less objective an d determining it requires judgement to
various extents depending on liquidity, concentration, uncertainties in market variables, pricing assumptions and other risks
relating to the specific instrument. Please see the below section ’ Valuation of financial instruments, fair value hierarchy’.
Critical judgements in applying the Group ’s accounting policies
The following are critical judgements made in applying the Group ’s accounting policies:
Valuation of financial instruments, fair value hierarchy
The Group ’s accounting policy on fair value measurements is discussed in note (4.8) Determination of fair value .
The Group measures fair value using the following hierarchy of methods:
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs are based on directly or indirectly observable information, however, the relation of them to the market pricing of
the financial asset or liability is more indirect. These may be the following:
· quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active market;
· quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active and this does not represent
reliably the assessment of market participant at the valuation date;
· inputs other than quoted prices (e.g., yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals, interest rates, credit
spreads, implied volatilities, etc.) that are observable for the asset or liability;
· indirectly observable inputs which can be derived from and corroborated by the observable inputs.
Level 3: Inputs for the financial asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The Group records the transfers (if any) between the levels in the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period.
The following table analyses financial instruments measured at fair value on the reporting date, by the level in the fair value
hierarchy into which the fair value measurement is categorised based on the inputs used in the valuation. If fair values are
determined with valuation techniques using unobservable inputs, the fair values include any deferred differences between the
transaction price and fair value on initial recognition.

Assumptions made in estimating the fair value of financial instruments
A number of financial instruments are not traded on active markets and thus fair values are based on estimations made using
net present value calculations of other valuation techniques which are significantly influenced by assumptions made regarding
estimated future cash flows and discount rates. In many cases it would not be possible to immediately realise the fair value
due to the size of the portfolio.
Methodologies, valuation techniques used and assumptions made in determining the fair values of financial instruments are as
follows:
Cash, cash balances at central banks and other demand deposits (level 1)
Due to their short-term nature, the carrying amounts of Cash, cash balances at central banks and other demand deposits are
a reasonable approximation of their fair value.
Loans and advances to customers (level 3)
For determining the fair value of these assets, future expected cash flows are discounted to their present value using current
market interest rates.
Fair values of loans and advances in stage 1 and stage 2 credit risk categories are calculated centrally by the parent company
using discounted cash flow method and, if relevant, taking behavioural option models and financial option pricing models into
account.
The Group uses discounted cash flow method also for calculating fair values of stage 3 (credit-impaired) loans and advances.
For these transactions fair value is calculated as the present value of the expected recoveries (distressed cash flows)
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

Consolidated financial statements
estimated by the expected loss/provisions modelling system, discounted with risk free rates adjusted with liquidity and credit
risk premium.
These items are included in lines ’ Loans and advances’ in the tables presenting fair value hierarchy.
Investments in securities (level 1, level 2 and level 3)
Quoted market prices are used for exchange-traded securities and listed debt instruments. The fair values of Hungarian
government bonds and corporate bonds classified as held for trading, designated at fair value through profit and loss and
measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are measured based on market prices available in the Bloomberg
Front-End System. The fair value of the securities is the market price quoted on the stock exchange (if such price exists). If no
quoted price exists, price available from OTC markets is used; otherwise, the fair value is the present value of the discounted
contractual cash flows at the valuation date.
These items are included in lines ‘ Equity instruments’ and ‘Debt securities’ in the tables presenting fair value hierarchy.
Investments in unlisted securities (level 2 and level 3)
These instruments are not quoted on markets. Besides market information, the Group uses other assumptions to value those
instruments.
For instruments valued at level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, fair values are calculated using dividend discount models.
These items are included in lines ‘ Equity instruments’ in the tables presenting fair value hierarchy.
Derivative instruments (level 1 and level 2)
Fair value of exchange-traded derivatives is the quoted price.
Fair value of interest rate swaps and forward rate agreements is determined by discounting the forecasted future cash flows.
In doing so, the Group applies the market rates applicable for the remaining maturity of the financial instruments.
The Group determines fair values of cross currency swaps using discounted cash flow method (calculated by front-office
system). Basis swap spreads representative to the markets of those instruments and also including country risk premiums are
incorporated into yield curves used for the purpose of the valuation.
The fair values of forward exchange transactions are computed on the basis of current forward rates. Fair values of plain
vanilla and exotic currency options are calculated with modified Black-Scholes model. In case of exotic options, the fair value of
which cannot be estimated with a closed formula, fair values are calculated using iteration techniques.
For hedging the exposures to changes in fair value of some loans, deposits or plain vanilla bonds (both purchased and issued),
the Group has entered into interest rate swap transactions. The fair value of these hedged loans, deposits and bonds is the
discounted present value of the future cash flows at balance sheet date. These loans, deposits and bonds are measured at
amortised cost or at fair value in the statement of financial position.
The aim of calculating CVA/DVA (Credit Value Adjustment/Debit Value Adjustment) according to IFRS 13 is to quantify the risk of
possible losses arising from counterparty defaults in case of the Group’s derivative exposures. The varying parameter in the
model is the possible future change in the counterparty’s probability of default and not the changes in market variables. The
calculation process is as follows: expected future exposures are estimated on mark-to-market basis for specific future dates,
these are multiplied with default probabilities and then aggregated, and finally the result is adjusted with a recovery rate.
Bank deposits, deposits from customers (level 3)
Fair value of deposits from banks and deposits from customers are determined using discounted cash flows, applying current
rates offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The fair value of a deposit repayable on demand is assumed to be
the amount payable on demand at the balance sheet date.
According to IFRS 13 standard the Group takes its own credit risk into account as follows: the Group discounts future cash
flows of the deposits by using discount factors that are shifted by the liquidity premium applicable for the dates of cash flows
· Raiffeisen Group | Financial Year 2024

determined for each currency. The level of liquidity premiums is based on market information, for instance: BUBOR/LIBOR
reference rates, interest rates of Interest Rate Swaps and Forward Rate Agreements, ASW spreads (Asset Swap Spreads).
These items are included in lines ‘Deposits’ in the tables presenting fair value hierarchy.
Debt securities issued, subordinated liabilities (level 2 and level 3)
Fair value of debt securities issued is determined by the Group using quoted market prices at the balance sheet date if
available, or by reference to quoted market prices for similar instruments. Fair value of subordinated liabilities is calculated by
discounting the future cash flows.
Fair values of fixed rate debt securities issued and designated in hedge relationships are calculated as the present value of
future cash flows.
According to IFRS 13 standard, own credit risk is quantified as follows: depending on the currency, the cash flows of the bond
are discounted using a HUF, EUR or USD zero-coupon IRS curve shifted by the amount of the liquidity premium.
Non-structured debt instruments issued are measured at amortised cost and thus they are not revalued except for cases
when they are designated as hedged items in fair value hedges. In these cases, only interest rate risk and not the credit risk is
hedged.

There is no significant difference between the accounting and prudential consolidation of the Group, that is why the Group
decided to harmonise those scopes of consolidation. The exclusion of the deconsolidated companies, which was made during
the mentioned harmonisation, has no material effect on the reliability and accuracy of the financial statement. By the end of
2024, the Bank has only one subsidiary that is not fully consolidated. Additionally, the non-consolidated subsidiaries have been
merged into other consolidated subsidiaries, and in one case, the MNB decided on the full consolidation of a subsidiary in 2022.
(45) Fund management activity
The Group manages zero closed-end ( 2023 : 0) and 16 open-end (2023 : 16) investment funds via Raiffeisen Befektetési
Alapkezelő Zrt, a fully owned and consolidated subsidiary. As the funds are not controlled by the Group , they are not
consolidated. For fund management services provided by the Group, funds pay certain fees and commissions that are reported
as ‘Net fee and commission income’, see Note (8) Net fee and commission income.

There were no fixed-term funds among open-end funds in the last two years. The volume of managed funds increased
significantly, by more than 20%, in 2024. The balance of deposits accepted from the funds, including both term deposits and
demand deposits, grew at a rate slightly exceeding the growth of managed assets. Despite the increase in volume, the amount
of interest paid by the Group to the funds decreased compared to 2023, due to the significantly lower interest rate
environment. Meanwhile, the commission income collected from the funds also showed strong growth in 2024.

chief operating decision maker to allocate resources among the segments and assess the performance of each segment. The
Group's exposure to risk and the level of return achieved depends primarily on the diversity of products and services offered,
and therefore segment information is presented in respect of the Group 's business segments. The business segments defined
by the Group are aligned with the organisational structure, which presents the profitability and operations of the group’s
business along the main business areas.
Both revenues and assets are geographically linked to domestic activity.

(1) Introduction
Raiffeisen Bank Zártkörűen Működő Részvénytársaság (registered office: 1133 Budapest, Váci út 116-118.; company registration
number: 01-10-041042, hereinafter ‘Raiffeisen Bank’ or the ‘Bank’, together with its consolidated subsidiaries the ‘Group’) was
established in 1986 as a subsidiary of Raiffeisen Zentralbank Österreich Aktiengesellschaft (‘RZB’, legal predecessor of
Raiffeisen Bank International AG – ‘RBI’; RBI and its fully consolidated subsidiaries together the ‘RBI Group’).
The Bank is licensed by the National Bank of Hungary (MNB) to provide a number of financial services and ancillary financial
services listed in Act CCXXXVII of 2013 on Credit Institutions and Financial Enterprises (the ‘Banking Act’) as well as certain
investment services under Act CXXXVIII of 2007 on Investment Firms and Commodity Dealers, and on the Rules Governing Their
Activities (the ‘Investment Services Act’). It operates as a universal bank, providing service(s) to corporate clients (large, medium
and small enterprises) and municipalities, as well as to individuals, micro enterprises and entrepreneurs.
Raiffeisen Bank pays particular attention to the development and maintenance of a high level of corporate governance in line
with the Hungarian and international legal requirements. A sound management system and organisational structure, accurate
financial planning, responsible management and comprehensive control mechanisms provide a solid foundation/framework
for prudent, transparent, efficient and effective operations, in order to maintain good governance the Bank continuously
reviews and improves its corporate governance practices.
Like all organisations providing financial and investment services, the Bank’s activities are subject to significant regulation by
legal provisions and supervisory requirements and guidelines. As a result, all its operations are regulated in detail and
constantly monitored by the authorities. Each internal control function (risk management, compliance activities, internal
control system) must meet strict requirements and demonstrate its effectiveness not only in the internal corporate
governance system but also to external public authorities. All this ensures a conscious, all-inclusive and controlled risk
management activity, and reliable, accurate and monitored data reporting. Financial and investment activities therefore
require complex and effective corporate governance practices that ensure responsible behaviour towards both clients and the
owner (Sole Shareholder), as well as reliable and predictable operations and long-term profitability.

· Decree 24/2008 (VIII.15.) of the Minister of Finance on the detailed rules of the disclosure obligations relating to

· Act V of 2013 on the Civil Code (the ‘Civil Code’)

(3.4) Corporate governance practices in relation to conflicts of interest
The Bank is not aware of any undisclosed, unmanaged conflicts of interest between the duties of the members of the Audit
Committee and/or the Board of Directors of the Bank and their private or other interests.
In addition, the Bank has internal provisions on prudential requirements and compliance rules concerning credit institutions
under Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council on prudential requirements for credit
institutions and investment firms (CRR) (taking into account the relevant Hungarian provisions under Act V of 2013 on the Civil
Code and the Banking Act) and the Joint Guidelines of ESMA and EBA on the assessment of the suitability of directors and key
management personnel.
The Bank aims to prevent conflicts of interest that could adversely affect the interests of the clients or the Bank. If a conflict of
interest is identified in relation to members of the Board of Directors and/or the Audit Committee, appropriate procedures
shall be applied to manage and disclose such conflict of interest. The guidelines and rules also cover actual or potential
conflicts of interest that may affect the Bank, the employees themselves (including management), the employees’ spouses/
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024

Responsible corporate governance report
domestic partners, children or other family members living in the same household, if these persons have close links with the
Bank or with other customers or contractual partners (in particular suppliers) or with issuers of financial instruments.
Each member of the Board of Directors undertakes to avoid any personal conflict of interest and undertakes to inform the
other members of the Board of Directors if he/she identifies a conflict of interest in relation to himself/herself. For the
avoidance of doubt, holding different positions in companies belonging to the RBI Group does not create a conflict of interest.
No member of the Board of Directors or the Audit Committee has any actual or potential conflict of interest between his or her
duties with the Bank and his or her private or other interests or duties. The members of the Board of Directors or the Audit
Committee may, in the ordinary course of business, enter into arm’s length transactions with the Group.
As of the date of the 2023 Annual Report, the Bank is not aware of any conflict of interest between the duties of the Bank’s
administrative, management and supervisory bodies (including the Bank’s Board of Directors and Audit Committee) and the
members’ private interests and/or other duties.
(3.5) System of internal controls
The internal control system, alongside responsible governance, is a key pillar of the internal lines of defence, which helps to
ensure prudent, reliable and efficient operations in compliance with the law and internal regulations, to protect the economic
interests and social objectives of customers and the Sole Shareholder, and to maintain confidence in the Bank.
Internal control functions are independent of each other and of the areas they supervise and control. Internal control functions
are expected to operate in a way that supports senior management in making informed decisions.
The Bank identifies three broad areas as the pillars of internal control: audit; risk management and compliance.
(3.5.1) Audit
The internal control system covers all processes, organisational units, business areas and activities, including outsourced
activities. The Bank’s control system is implemented at several interdependent control levels.
Internal Audit Department monitors the Bank’s activities by carrying out reviews approved by the Audit Committee and
included in its annual and medium-term risk-based internal audit work plan. In addition to the approved annual plan, only the
Audit Committee and the Head of Internal Audit may set mandatory tasks for the internal audit staff, including the case where
the Audit Committee proceed based on the recommendations of at least two members of the Board of Directors or the
Management Board. Internal Audit regularly reports the results of its audits to Management and the Audit Committee. The
department communicates and cooperates as necessary with external audit bodies, authorities and professional associations.
The main areas of activity of the Internal Audit Department include among others: (a) reviewing the Bank’s activities to ensure
that the results are consistent with the organisational and business objectives; (b) regularly assessing the effectiveness,
consistency with the objectives and suitability of the Bank’s risk management, governance and control processes; and (c)
providing objective information to the audited area, Management and the Sole Shareholder on weaknesses in the internal
control system and the resulting risks, and making recommendations for improvements to the internal control system.
The Bank’s Management shall ensure the full investigative powers and independence of the internal audit function. Internal
Audit and its members have no authority to take action in the area investigated by them or responsibility for the facts they
uncover, but they have unlimited powers of investigation in the areas they investigate. Internal Audit materials and documents
are classified as confidential or secret. Except for external audit bodies, only members of the Audit Committee, members of
Management, and RBI Group Internal Audit have access to Internal Audit materials.
(3.5.2) Risk management
The Bank has detailed risk management policies covering all types of risk (credit, country, counterparty, market, liquidity,
operational, compliance), in line with the legislation governing prudent banking operation. Information on risk management
practices, the limits applied and compliance with those limits is disclosed in the annual report and in the information required
to be published under the CRR. The Group’s risk management strategy and the risk policies required by the Banking Act are
approved by the Bank’s Board of Directors.
There are five major risk management departments operating at the Bank: (i) Credit Risk Management; (ii) Retail and SME Risk
Management; (iii) Integrated Risk Department; (iv) Collection Department; and (v) Special Exposure Management Department.
Credit Risk Management Department
The Bank’s non-retail risk analysis, risk management, credit product related contract management, portfolio management and
collateral management functions are completely separate and independent from the business areas. Individual credit risk in
non-retail segment is analysed, rated, assessed and monitored by Credit Risk Management (CRM). Measuring non-retail credit
1 The credit assessment and rating of standard product-based financing is not the responsibility of Credit Risk Management.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
Responsible corporate governance report
9
risk at portfolio level is a shared competence and responsibility between Credit Risk Management and Integrated Risk
Department (IRD). Market risks (interest rate, exchange rate, liquidity risks) and operational risks are also analysed by
Integrated Risk Department. 1
Retail and SME Risk Management Department
The department is responsible for the credit risk management of four business lines (retail, private banking, micro and small
businesses) for both banking and leasing products. It participates in the related product, process and system development
activities, performs portfolio analysis, manages provisioning and develops and maintains score models.
Integrated Risk Department
The Integrated Risk Management and Data Science Department is responsible for the management of market, liquidity,
balance-sheet risk, operational and fraud Risk, capital adequacy calculation and ICAAP, model validation, data science and risk
data related activities.
Collection Department
The primary task of Collection Department is to manage the Bank’s delinquent retail (PI), private and SME customers, to recover
overdue receivables and thereby to maintain at the planned level and minimise the impairment allocated on expected losses,
to develop recovery strategies, to estimate recovery data for the planning, to develop and monitor collection KPIs, and to plan
capacities.
Special Exposure Management Department
The Department is responsible for the management of the Bank’s restructuring, distressed and non-performing clients
belonging to the medium-sized and large corporate and municipal segments, as well as those of its leasing and other
subsidiaries and the department also sets and monitors the risk status of the problematic non-retail customers via operating
the early warning system (EWS). The two primary objectives of the department are: a) to proactively ensure the highest
possible recovery on the cases it handles, where possible, taking into account the reasonable interests of the debtors and b) to
ensure the appropriate risk status setting for the problematic non-retail segment by running the EWS that includes daily/
weekly/monthly and ad hoc screening tasks.
(3.5.3) Compliance
In accordance with the relevant EU and Hungarian legal requirements and supervisory recommendations, the Bank has an
independent organisational unit (Compliance Department) for the identification and management of compliance risks. The
function has the appropriate regulatory documents in place: compliance strategy, compliance policy, regulations for the
management of specific compliance risks, and work plan.
The core purpose of the Compliance Department is to identify, prevent and manage compliance risks. The department is an
integral part of the internal lines of defence within the RBI Group. Its scope covers all subsidiaries of the Group, their
employees, and it is responsible for all compliance-related issues affecting the Group. The department reports directly to the
Chief Executive Officer.
The Compliance Department’s main areas of activity include (a) ensuring the functioning of the internal control framework and
the preparation and maintenance of the related policies; (b) implementing and operating the compliance strategy of the RBI
Group; (c) establishing, operating and monitoring the Bank’s and its subsidiaries’ anti-money laundering and financial sanctions
programmes; (d) operating a local whistle-blowing system; (e) establishing policies for the prevention of conflict of interest
situations; (f) implementing and enforcing policies on the prohibition of insider trading and market manipulation and on the
limitation of information flow, and operating a monitoring system; (g) fulfilling reporting obligations; and (h) communication
with supervisory bodies.
(4) The Bank’s information management and
disclosure policy
Having regular, reliable and comparable information is essential for the other participants of the money and capital markets to
assess the Bank’s performance. When disclosing information, the Bank shall ensure that the information is clear,
understandable, correct and accurate.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024

Responsible corporate governance report
The basic principle followed by the Bank in its disclosures is to comply with all its disclosure obligations in the form and within
the time limits prescribed by law. As an issuer of publicly traded debt securities, the Bank is subject to the provisions set out in
Chapter V of the Capital Market Act, in the PM Decree containing detailed rules on extraordinary information, in the relevant
rules of the Budapest Stock Exchange, in the MAR, in the Investment Services Act and in the Banking Act.
The Bank has formulated its principles for the transactions and tradings of persons regarded as insiders in relation to
securities (bonds) issued by the Bank and admitted to trading on a regulated market, taking into account the relevant legal
provisions. The Bank will act in accordance with MAR and its policy on the handling of inside information in relation to the
identification, handling and disclosure of information.
(5) Remuneration policy
The Bank operates an objective, transparent and and legally compliant remuneration structure. The Bank’s remuneration
system is consistent with and promotes sound risk management, and shall not encourage the taking of risks beyond the risk
tolerance of the credit institution.
The Bank aims to attract and retain a motivated, quality workforce and to reward employees in a way that enables the Bank
and the RBI Group to meet future challenges in line with the principles of sound risk management.
The remuneration policy ensures the local implementation of the remuneration framework of the RBI Group for all categories
of employees at the Bank, including the members of Management. In implementing its remuneration policy, the Bank
distinguishes between the following categories of employees:
· Management;
· Employees eligible to an annual bonus; and
· Employees eligible for risk mitigation incentives.
(6) Diversity policy
The RBI Group has introduced the group-level diversity policy. The Bank will consider the local implementation in the course of
2025.

(1) Macroeconomic environment
After inflation, during 2023 interest rates also peaked, so 2024 was a year of consolidation in the broad interest rate
environment. The ECB cut its benchmark deposit rate from 4% to 3% with a 4X25 bps cut, while euro area inflation eased from
2.8% at the start of the year to 1.7% in September, but rose again to 2.4% by the end of Q4 2024, mainly for technical reasons
that could temporarily keep the indicator above the 2% target in H1 2025. The growth outlook for the euro area is subdued,
with GDP growing by 0.7% overall in 2024 (above the 0.4% rate in 2023, but still reflecting weakness in domestic and external
demand). The Fed started cutting rates later, only in September, from 5.5%, but in line with the ECB, also lowering policy rates
by a total of 100 basis points until end-2024, while inflation followed a similar path, falling from 3.1% to 2.9% in a year. With
consumption in the US under stronger price pressure, the Fed may be more cautious in 2025. Economic performance is far
outperforming that of the EU. Available estimates suggest that US economic output could grow by at least 2.3% in 2024. The
ECB's monetary policy will necessarily turn more accommodative in the coming quarters, presumably widening the spread
between dollar and euro interest rates in the interbank market. Labour markets in both economies remain extremely tight,
with unemployment at or very close to record low levels and employment at or close to record highs, resulting in strong wage
competition in both Western European economies and the US, which is only slowly moderating. Last year, consumption was the
main driver of economic growth in both regions, but external demand and investment could pick up from 2025. However, there
is a significant risk of increased protectionism and possible mutual imposition of trade tariffs, which could permanently reduce
the external growth contribution of the EU, the euro area and all EU countries. The recent weakening of EUR/USD mainly
reflects this risk, alongside widening interest rate differentials.
(1.1) Hungarian economy
Hungary's economic performance has been very subdued during 2024. According to first estimates (which include GDP data for
2024 Q4), output for the year as a whole grew by 0.5% in raw terms and by 0.6% in adjusted terms compared to 2023. Growth
expectations gradually declined over the year, but the Q4 2024 GDP data beat analysts' consensus, with GDP volume rising by
0.5% on a quarterly and 0.2% on an annual basis. On the contribution side, services activity was mainly supportive, while a
decline in industrial, agricultural and construction output tended to dampen the recovery. On the consumption side, private
consumption showed a mixed picture, with some growth in household final consumption but a sharp fall in investment (both in
the private and public sectors) as market funding remains expensive and the lack of subsidies and EU funds is difficult to
replace. In addition, external demand has been very subdued in Europe and in other major export markets. This could turn
positively from 2025 onwards. After a high inflation period, consumption could continue to pick up on the back of falling
savings rates, and, assuming external demand strengthens, demand for capital investment could also start to rise, with all
sectors contributing positively to GDP growth alongside export demand from industry, which is still suffering from low capacity
utilisation. In addition, the base effect could be supportive in 2025, with upside risks to the expected GDP growth of 2.5% for
the year as a whole. The unemployment rate has been mixed over 2024, but has remained below its multi-year average and
below trend over the long term, with a 3-month moving average of 4.7% in December 2023 and 4.4% in December 2024. The
labour market remains tight, hence the pace of wage outflows is only moderating slowly (in November 2024 the annual growth
rate of average gross wages was 11.9%, which means a 13.5% increase for January-November). In 2025, it is expected to be
somewhere between 9-10%, rather than double digits. Inflation stood at 4.6% at the end of the year, while it was 3.7% for 2024
as a whole. The headline CPI is expected to decline further over 2025 and in the longer term, along which core inflation is also
expected to catch up to the 3% medium-term target within a few quarters. Against this backdrop, some technical factors and
stronger-than-expected food and fuel inflation have pushed up near-term inflation risks. Inflation is likely to average 4% in
2025, which means that monthly figures around the upper end of the central bank's 2-4% tolerance band could characterise
the coming quarters in particular. Regarding interest rate policy, in 2024 the effective interest rate declined further from 10.75%
to 6.5%, but in Q4 2024 the easing cycle stopped as the HUF showed greater vulnerability than before, and expectations of an
expected decline in developed market interest rates were reassessed. Interest rate cuts may continue in 2025: no rate cuts are
expected until mid-year, with three 25 bp cuts in late Q2 2025, i.e. in June, followed by September and December. The risk
premia that the market anticipates for HUF assets have widened somewhat over the past year, while the risk-free developed
market rate itself may be on a higher forward trajectory than previously thought. Against this backdrop, the EUR/HUF
exchange rate, which has risen from around 380 in the first half of last year to close to 410 by the end of the year, could
continue to move north in the short to medium term, with a trading range of 405-420 emerging in 2025.
(1.2) The banking sector
In the first three quarters of 2024, according to data of the National Bank of Hungary (NBH) the banking sector recorded a HUF
1,567 billion profit after taxation on consolidated level. The net interest income was 4% higher than in 2023, while fee and
commission income increased to a higher extent, by 15%.
Operating expenses increased by 4% compared to the same period of last year. In the first three quarters of 2024, net loss
allowance and risk provision decreased further (by 17%), contributing to the banking sector's results.
The sector’s net assets were HUF 94,458 billion, which represents an 6% increase compared to the same period of 2023.
Corporate loans decreased by 1%, while retail loans increased by 11% compared to last year. The balance of deposits from

customers also increased, the total balance of deposits from retail and non-financial companies increased by 7% compared to
the same period of last year.
The ratio of non-performing loans decreased slightly from 2.7% to 2.4% compared to the same period of last year.
The cost-to-income ratio (CIR) was 50.9% in the first three quarters of 2024, which is slightly better than the last year’s 52.4%.
The RoE and RoA ratios have also changed, decreasing to 19.5% (from 22.7%) and 2.2% (from 2.4%), respectively. The liquidity
status and capital adequacy of the sector are appropriate.

The Bank's total assets increased by 4.15% (HUF 183 billion) in 2024, and its market share has decreased during the year, from
6.00% at 2023 year-end to 5.86%. The outstanding growth in volumes of recent years continued during 2024, following the
slowdown observed in 2023, so there was an increase in both customer liabilities and customer assets.

segment. The quality of the loan portfolio deteriorated somewhat this year, the NPE ratio is 2.78% higher compared to the
previous year.
The Bank's loan/deposit ratio remained almost unchanged (59.87%), due to the nearly same increase in customer assets and
liabilities. This is in line with the current investment climate influenced by inflation and interest rates, a trend across the sector.

In addition to impairment of financial assets, Risk cost also includes the amount of other provisions.
The Bank recognised HUF 114,505 million for the business year, which was 15.34% higher than the result of the previous year.
The main components of profit are the following:
· The most significant contribution to the profit increase was the release of risk costs.
· The other significant profit increasing component was the 15.14% increase in net fee income, due to the increase in
fee income from payment services and fees related to the distribution of securities.
· The decline in net interest income can be attributed to the declining forint market yield environment.
· The increase in the Bank's operating costs was primarily caused by the increase in wage costs compensating for the
exceptionally high inflationary environment of 2023 and the resources devoted to digital developments supporting
the Bank's strategic objectives.
· In the other result category, the loss was lower than last year due to the Bank’s share from the extraordinary surtax
charged on the banking sector and a lower revaluation loss contributed to a smaller loss compared to the previous
year.
· In 2024, the Bank's tax liability increased by HUF 5,810 million compared to the previous year. This is primarily due to
higher business and corporate tax induced by higher sales and profit before tax.
Since the Bank’s profit increased by HUF 15,225 million, it significantly increased the return on equity, which changed to 24.61%.
The improving trend experienced in recent years has somewhat stalled in terms of the cost/income ratio, which thus changed
from 30.78% to 31.96%.
(3.3) Events after the reporting date
The sole shareholder decided to pay a dividend of HUF 114,505 million aligned with the approval of the financial statements
and after the general reserve allocation. This amount consists of HUF 80,153 million to be paid out from current year's profit
after tax and HUF 34,352 million to be distributed from retained earnings.
The final capital adequacy ratios considering the inclusion of current year’s profit and dividends are CET1 16.18%, TIER1 19.02%,
total capital adequacy ratio 23.30%.

Separate business report
(4) Presentation of the business segment’s
performance
(4.1) Corporate and Investment Banking business segment
The Bank’s corporate and investment banking business segment maintained its dominant role in the commercial banking
market in 2024, further increased its loan portfolio, and, with its 8-10% market share, is one of the leading market players in the
mid and large corporate segment, and it belongs to the leading banks in export finance and treasury services as well.
The largest portion of the Bank’s green assets arise from its project financing and syndication activity, which is an important
pillar of the ESG strategy of the entire banking group. In line with this, in 2024 the majority of newly disbursed project loans are
green loans, both in the property and non-property categories.
The expansion of the loan portfolio was achieved with a conservative business policy and risk-taking. Overall, the loan portfolio
remained of excellent quality.
The Bank's trade and export financing area tried to maintain its previous business activity despite a significant reduction in the
range of supported programs in 2024. In the case of the Széchenyi program, the elimination of crisis support titles and the
reduction of the maximum available limits negatively impacted lending. For Exim, the only available supported and refinanced
program was the HUF 200 billion BGH Plus program, announced in the first quarter of 2024 and fully utilized within the same
quarter. Although Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. managed to participate in both supported programs at a rate exceeding its market
share, this could not compensate for the amortization of the previous supported loan portfolio in 2024.
The agriculture sector faced several adverse effects in 2024. Firstly, for the second time in three years, significant drought
affected key crop-producing areas in the country, causing substantial yield losses and severely impacting crop quality (high
toxin levels). In livestock farming, avian influenza has been a persistent issue for years, and spring frosts continue to decimate
fruit yields annually. The only positive news in the agricultural sector was the launch of the "CAP ST. II. Pillar" grant system in the
second half of 2024, which generated significant demand due to its highly favourable conditions (non-repayable grants,
interest subsidies, and guarantee fee subsidies). However, the evaluation of these applications is expected in the second and
third quarters of 2025, with financing opportunities becoming available during that period.
In 2024, the Bank's documentary services area continued its successful operations, achieving a year-over-year revenue increase
of over 10%. This was accomplished despite the significant decline in the construction industry, which constitutes the majority
of documentary transactions. The decline was due to both a reduction in government orders and a noticeable decrease in
demand in the housing and office rental markets.
Important part of the Bank's client service model is the financing of municipalities, entities owned by municipalities, non-profit
companies, associations, condominiums and other communities. It provides a full range of advanced financial services to its
clients and securely handles deposits placed with the Bank. Services focus on managing clients' investments and providing
investment, development and project loans to municipalities, associations and condominiums. In the latter activities, ESG
aspects and sustainable financing come to the fore, so the Bank strives to ensure that as much of the newly disbursed loans as
possible are green loans.
The Bank supports the use of banking services for corporate and municipal clients through the continuous development of
digital channels. The role of the branch network and personal interactions has evolved, merging into a new "phygital" format. In
addition to the instant payment system, the Bank supports clients with "QR code" and "Payment request" based payments, as
well as card acceptance solutions (POS and VPOS). The digital developments ensure efficient customer service and also
facilitate the use of ASP services by municipalities.
The financial institutions and custody segment had another successful year in 2024, similar to previous years, further
increasing its deposit and loan portfolios. Additionally, it was successful in expanding transaction volumes and products, with
particular emphasis on innovative cash management services. Despite increasing competition, the intensive growth of assets
under custody also continued.
The Bank’s cash, foreign exchange and capital market department – according to the statistics of the National Bank of
Hungary – once again made the largest foreign exchange volume among banks in Hungary in 2024 and also was the biggest
player in the derivative section of Budapest Stock Exchange. In the first half of 2024, the Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. was the second-
largest primary dealer of Hungarian government securities, while it secured the fourth position in the second half of the year.
Additionally, the Bank was once again awarded the title of Domestic Equity Trading Platform of the Year for its Raiffeisen
Online Broker service in 2024.

(4.2) Retail clients
The Retail Division also had a successful year in 2024: by the end of 2024, the number of retail individual (Mass) and Premium
banking customers exceeded the year-end 2023 figures by 2%; revenues increased despite unexpected tax changes, and
Raiffeisen Bank Zrt.'s NPS (Net Promoter Score) remained among the best among leading universal banks (annual NPS: 25).
The outstanding results were partly due to the improving economic environment (declining inflation, rising real wages) and
partly to the Bank's internal business development activities. 2024 was a year of product innovation and optimization in retail
account products: in February, the Bank introduced 2 new premium accounts, and in November, a new retail account (called
Active account), while suspending the sale of previous account products. The goal is to make the Bank’s account product
portfolio easy to understand and transparent for customers, and to increase synergy and interoperability between segments.
In the spirit of optimization, the Bank is also continuing to simplify the bankcard offerings. The Bank’s acquisition goals were
greatly supported by the implementation of the online account opening function in the myRaiffeisen mobile application in
2024, which is becoming increasingly popular among the customers.
The Bank also placed great emphasis on marketing activities through various channels to support customer acquisition in 2024.
These included constant account opening promotions, customer referral programs, and special promotions for Yelloo accounts
aimed at the younger age group (14-25 years). Last year, partner sales became increasingly important within the Bank, with
numerous sales points opened in Tesco stores from November 2024. Educational campaigns remain a focus, helping customers
to use their accounts and digital services more actively. The Group's Loyalty Program also became increasingly popular,
offering existing customers numerous discounts with commercial and service partners.
The Bank continued its digital developments across various platforms to provide customers with a modern, high-quality
customer experience in managing their everyday finances. Our digital strategy continues to focus on expanding the functions
of the myRaiffeisen mobile application and the range of online products. Thanks to these developments, the number of online
account openings and online product applications has significantly increased, and more services are available 24/7 in the
application. In 2024, the Bank plays a leading role in introducing innovative payment solutions, such as implementing cash-in
ATMs in several branches and being the first in the market to introduce qvik payment acceptance. For sustainable
development, the Bank has also made carbon footprint tracking available in the myRaiffeisen application.
Investor activity and appetite remained high among customers in 2024. There was strong interest and demand for investment
funds, and demand for government securities remained relatively stable despite changes in the market interest rate
environment. Interest in other savings options continued to stagnate among retail customers due to the low-interest
environment.
The division also continued its successful business activities in retail lending. Demand for retail mortgage loans increased
significantly, especially in the second half of the year. Demand for personal loans also grew significantly, exceeding
expectations, while the sale of baby loan remained balanced even after regulatory tightening at the beginning of the year. The
stabilization of macroeconomic conditions resulted in an interest rate level supportive of lending, further strengthened by the
increase in real wages.
In lending, a key objective is to meet customer needs where security and predictability are the main priorities. Another strategic
focus is digitalization, where most customers already used the fully online application process for personal loans, and even
more existing customers applied for overdrafts and credit cards online. The Bank aims to make this application option
available for more products and a wider range of customers in the near future.
Overall, a key goal remains to continuously improve the customer experience in retail lending, with digitalization playing a
crucial role. The Bank is confident that with further improvements in external conditions, lending will remain strong, further
supported by the new worker loan scheme starting in January 2025.
The Bank's market share in retail loan portfolios did not change significantly, standing at 5.5% at the end of December 2024.
(4.3) Private Banking clients
The aim of Raiffeisen Private Banking is to preserve, increase and pass on the family wealth of high-net-worth clients from
generation to generation. With the expert work of experienced consultants, the Bank provides its key clients with safety,
comfort, discretion and customised tailor-made solutions.
Raiffeisen Private Banking had an extremely successful year in 2024. Thanks to the honourable trust of its clients, the assets
entrusted to management reached HUF 1,295 billion by the end of the year, which represents an increase of nearly 30% in a
single year. In order to ensure effective and efficient service of the increased wealth, and maintain the brand promise, the
capacities have also been increased. The visible expansion of Private Banking continuously strengthens the Bank's market
position.

Separate business report
Constitute and maintain the satisfaction of key private customers is inconceivable without personalized solutions and the
highest level of service. Accordingly, Raiffeisen Private Banking continued to invest significantly in 2024 in introducing new
products and services, as well as in developing the knowledge base of IT systems and banking advisors.
Recently, digitalization has received a special focus, as a result of which not only customers can manage their finances
smoothly and independently, but employees can also be available at access points far from their workplace. During 2024, there
was a strong focus on reducing administrative burdens, resulting in the Bank significantly reduced paper consumption and the
number of signatures.
(4.4) Financial institutions
The financial institutions segment is of strategic priority for the Bank, which continues to grow dynamically, thanks to its
comprehensive and unique customer service model, a wide range of products and continuous innovation.
The key target group of the business segment remains domestic insurance companies, investment fund managers, funds, as
well as domestic and international financial institutions and investment service providers, which are supported by new,
innovative solutions and products to serve their clients at a high level, fast and securely. In addition to the above, the domestic
and international banking relationships were in focus as well along with – considering the Bank’s strategy, furthermore
adhering to strict compliance principles – international payment service providers and Raiffeisen Bank Zrt.’s contracted
currency exchange brokers. Since 2021, the Bank's financial institutions business segment has successfully effected the
professional coordination of payment service providers (PSPs) within the banking group and implemented the strategy for this
market segment.
Assets in the financial institutions area continued to increase significantly throughout 2024, building on the high levels achieved
in previous years,  while maintaining a moderate risk profile and a low capital requirement character. Despite market
turbulence and regulatory changes, deposits successfully expanded. In addition to interest income, the increase in fee and
commission income also contributed to the significant above-plan results. The business segment continues to be characterised
by a stable stock of liabilities and long-term, reliable customer relationships. The risk cost of the area is extremely moderate,
and its cost-to-income ratio has stabilized at a very low level.
With the support of strengthened group-wide management at its headquarters in Vienna and through the Vienna parent
bank’s direct relationships with central securities depositories in Central and Eastern Europe, the Bank provides priority custody
services for the management of clients' investments directed to this region. In 2024, the Bank's custody department continued
its successful operations, maintaining an intensive growth trend in both the number of domestic clients and the assets under
custody, despite the changing market and regulatory environment and increasing competition.
Clear positive feedback from both customers and the profession proves that the Bank is one of the strongest brands in the
regional financial and capital markets, as well as in serving financial institutions and product innovations.
(4.5) Subsidiaries
Raiffeisen Corporate Lízing Zrt.
Since 2014, the Company, which is 100% Bank-owned, has been the unified entity within the Raiffeisen Leasing group for
providing financial leasing services exclusively to non-consumer clients, as well as special state-supported loan schemes for
financing the purchase of assets, vehicles, and equipment.
The Company has been a significant player in the medium and large corporate segment for years, primarily by serving the
leasing needs of banking clients. The passenger car and heavy commercial vehicle financing business is a key strategic focus.
The Company continued its previously initiated strategy in 2024, in which, in addition to leasing financing of vehicle and/or
asset investments of medium and large corporate customers, increasing emphasis is placed on boosting leasing services for
the micro and small enterprise segment. In addition to its own sales channels, special emphasis is placed on mobilizing the
Bank's medium and large corporate sales network and exploiting sales synergies related to common customers. The goal
remains to maintain the good quality of the portfolio , keep costs low through cost-effective operation, and establish and
maintain long-term profitable operation.
Raiffeisen Autó Lízing Kft.
The Company is 100% owned subsidiary of Raiffeisen Corporate Lízing Zrt.. The popularity of operating lease dropped
significantly due to the accounting method prescribed by IFRSs and due to the availability of finance leases with preferential
interest conditions (NHP, EXIM, KAVOSZ) and as a consequence of that a decrease occurred in the vehicle and asset financing
provided without fleet service. The strategy of the Company is the demand-based client servicing and individual management
of transactions and it does not put an emphasis on concluding new businesses in operating leasing arrangements.

Raiffeisen Biztosításközvetítő Kft.
The Bank was the sole owner until 30.06.2024, when it was terminated by legal succession following an ownership decision. The
Company's main activity was insurance brokerage, primarily for member companies of the Raiffeisen Bank Group.
At the beginning the main source of revenue of the Company stemmed from small and medium enterprise segment but later it
began to sell its insurance products also in large enterprise and leasing segment as well.
The Bank has started to operate as a dependent single agent effective from 1 April 2022. From this date, in addition to the
products transferred from the Company, the Bank will also manage the portfolio of insurance policies currently actively sold by
the Bank, and therefore the Bank will also realise the commission income related to these products.
The 2022 legislative change also allowed dependent single agents to maintaining stocks of competing products. With regards
to this, the Company has transferred its entire stock to the Bank with effect from 1 May 2023, from which date the Bank will
also realize the related commission income. From autumn 2023, insurance related to leasing products will also be sold through
the dependent single agent. These transformations had a significant impact on commission income. Thus, in October 2023, the
owner of the Company decided to merge its 100% share in Raiffeisen Biztosításközvetítő Kft. into SCT Kárász utca Kft.
RB Szolgáltató Központ Kft.
The Company was founded by the Bank in order to open and operate a banking operating center in Nyíregyháza. Its activity
began as call center and sales activity and that extended to phone collection, credit assessment and banking operation
activities.
The Company finances asset purchases necessary to its operation from investment loans, its financial situation and liquidity is
stable, its operation is profitable.
The number of the Company’s employees increased to over 400 and remained above that level throughout 2023 and 2024. It
operates by improving its processes and further enhancing the quality of its service. In accordance with the Group’s strategy, it
moved to a new headquarters in June 2022, allowing colleagues to perform their banking operations tasks in a more modern
working environment that better supports the processes.
RB Szolgáltató Központ Kft. ceased its activities on 31.12.2024 based on a decision of the owner. The entire staff and equipment
necessary for the performance of the activities were taken over and purchased by the owner Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. The Bank will
continue to carry out the previous activities of RB Szolgáltató Központ Kft. at the same level starting on 1 January 2025.
Raiffeisen Befektetési Alapkezelő Zrt.
The Company is a 100% owned subsidiary of the Bank. The Company's assets under management grew at a strong pace in
2024, albeit at a slower pace than in previous years and the market average. In the first quarter of the period, assets under
management expanded steadily, but stagnated after March, due to the declining investor interest in short-term bond funds.
Investors' focus increasingly shifted to actively managed funds that change their portfolios quickly. June brought new
momentum in asset changes, partly as a result of the weakening of the forint, and partly due to the fact that demand for
mixed and equity funds, which were less popular in previous years, and for the aforementioned managed funds with an
absolute return target, was able to more than compensate for the outflow of assets from bond funds. The summer months
brought an even smaller slowdown, but the Company ended the year with an asset growth above the market average. In
addition to managed funds with a mixed and absolute return objective, assets managed in ESG funds also benefited from the
segment rotation that is otherwise typical at the sector level, while real estate base assets eroded further due to less
competitive performance. Another benefit of the year was the increased investor interest in funds and series not denominated
in forints.
The Company's operating profit developed favourably, in which, in addition to the rapid growth of revenues, also the controlled
costs played a role.
In recent years, the Company has revamped its product set to align with market challenges. The first step in this process was
the creation of three funds targeting different risk levels, equipped with active management and stringent risk control, in
collaboration with the Austrian asset manager of the Raiffeisen Group. Additionally, in recent years, euro- and dollar-
denominated series have been launched for the majority of the managed funds alongside the forint series. As a result of the
next step in the product set transformation, the Company now manages five ESG-focused funds, ensuring that clients can
choose between traditional and ESG products across all major asset classes. Furthermore, the Company successfully executed
a strategic shift in its absolute return funds, significantly increasing their popularity. The success of the Company is signalled
by its operations having been awarded with a number of prizes in the past years.

(5) Corporate governance statement
Responsible corporate governance is a fundamental tool of the foremost goals of the Bank, the precondition of long-term
value creation. The duty of corporate governance is to create an appropriate balance, operating order amongst owners, client,
employees, business partners and the wider public. The Raiffeisen Bank Zrt.full complies with relevant legislations and HNB’s
instructions and recommendations. The Bank’s organisational setup and operating conditions are included in Article of
Association and in the Organisational and Operational Policy both accepted by the sole shareholder. The Bank continuously
revises and improves its corporate governance practice.
(6) Financial instruments
The Bank prepares its financial statements in accordance with the requirements of IFRS.
In accordance with the requirements of IFRSs and Accounting Law the Bank shall from 2018 on – in accordance with IFRS9 –
classify its financial assets as measured at amortised cost, measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, or
measured at fair value through profit or loss, based on
·               the Bank’s business model to manage the financial assets; and
·               the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets.
A financial asset shall be measured at amortised cost, if both of the below conditions are met:
· the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect
contractual cash flows; and
· the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
A financial asset shall be measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if both of the below conditions are met:
· the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash
flows and selling financial assets; and
· the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
A financial asset shall be measured at fair value through profit or loss, except when in accordance with the above it is
measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income.
The Bank can at initial recognition irrevocably elect to present the subsequent changes in the fair value of certain equity
instruments, that otherwise would be measured at fair value through profit or loss, in other comprehensive income.
The Bank may, at initial recognition, irrevocably designate a financial asset as measured at fair value through profit or loss if
doing so eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency (sometimes referred to as an
'accounting mismatch') that would otherwise arise from measuring assets or liabilities or recognising the gains and losses on
them on different bases.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024

The Bank shall classify all financial liabilities as measured at amortised cost, except for those cases described in the standards
in detail, in which cases they shall be treated as financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss.
The accounting policy of the Bank and a number of disclosures requires the determination of fair value of financial assets and
liabilities. Fair value is determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the below methods.
All financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value plus directly attributable transaction costs (except for financial
instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss in which case transaction costs are charged directly to profit or loss).
The fair value is the price that the Bank would receive in case of selling an asset or the Bank would have to pay in case of
transferring a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Subsequent to initial recognition the basis of determining fair value of financial instruments quoted in active markets is the bid
price in case of assets and the ask price in case of liabilities. If observable price is not available, fair value is determined using
valuation techniques that rely on observable market data. The method may be comparison with similar instruments for which
there is an observable quoted market price, discounted cash flow analysis, option pricing models and other valuation
techniques commonly used by market participants. Fair value of financial instruments may be determined using techniques
based entirely or partly on assumptions that are not underpinned by actual market transactions or observable market data.
The Bank designed the following methodology to determine fair value:
Derivative transactions:
· Fair value of foreign currency forward and futures transactions is the difference between the forward exchange
rate, determined for the maturity of the transaction and prevailing at the valuation date, and the strike price,
discounted from date of maturity to valuation date.
· Fair value of cross currency swaps is the difference between the forward exchange rate, determined for the
maturity of the transaction and prevailing at the valuation date, and the strike price, discounted from date of
maturity to valuation date, calculated for the forward leg. Yield curves used for the purpose of the valuation
incorporate current market interest premium.
· Fair value of interest rate swaps and forward rate agreements (FRA) is the net present value of the expected future
cash flows discounted to the valuation date.
· Fair value of plain vanilla and exotic foreign currency options is determined using the modified Black-Scholes model.
In case of exotic options for which no closed formula exist, values are determined using iterative techniques.
· Fair value of cross currency interest rate swaps is the net present value of the expected future cash flows of the
instrument discounted to the valuation date, where we incorporate into the yield curve used for the purpose of the
valuation the interest rate premium (basis swap spread) representative to the market of those instruments (also
including country risk premium).
· Fair value of stock and index futures is determined based on the difference of the quoted price and the strike price.
Securities:
Fair value of securities measured at fair value through profit or loss or at fair value through other comprehensive income is
determined using market prices available in Bloomberg information system. It is the stock exchange closing price in case of
securities where it is available. In case of securities where stock exchange price is not available, the fair value is the net present
value of the expected future cash flows of the security discounted to the valuation date.
Loans:
Loans are basically measured at amortised cost which equals the amount at which the financial asset is measured at initial
recognition minus the principal repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortisation using the effective interest method of
any difference between that initial amount and the maturity amount and adjusted for any expected credit loss allowance
recorded.
To hedge the fair value changes of certain loans with fixed interest rate the Bank entered into interest rate swaps. Such loans
hedged with IRS transactions are measured in the financial statements at amortised cost adjusted for fair value changes
attributable to the hedged risk.
Deposits:
The Bank measures its deposits at amortised cost. Certain structured deposits contain embedded derivatives which are
separated from the deposits. The Bank measures the embedded derivatives at fair values with its changes recognised in profit
or loss.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
10
Separate business report
The Bank involves certain deposits with fixed interest rate in hedge accounting. The fair value of those deposits is determined
by calculating the net present value of expected future cash flows discounted to the reporting date.
Bonds issued:
Non-structured self-issued bonds are measured at amortised cost and thus they are not revalued, except for bonds involved in
hedge accounting. In such cases only interest rate risk is hedged not credit risk.
Fair value of hedge-accounted issued bonds with fixed interest rate is the present value of future cash flows, whereas in case
of structured instruments the Bank values the embedded derivative which is separated from the host contract.
Hedge accounting
The Bank designated certain derivative instruments held for risk management purposes as hedging instruments designated in
hedge accounting. At inception of the hedge the Bank formally documents the relationship between the hedging instrument(s)
and the hedged item(s), the risk management objectives and hedging strategy followed by entering into the transaction and
the method used for measuring hedge effectiveness. The Bank evaluates at inception of the hedging relationship and
continuously thereafter whether the hedging instrument will be highly effective in offsetting the fair value changes of the
hedged item attributable to the hedged risk over the entire term of the hedging instrument and whether the actual results fall
within the 80-125 percent range.
(7) Basic principles of risk management and hedging
policy
The Bank operates an independent, from business functions entirely separated risk management under the supervision of
deputy CEO responsible for risk management. The credit risk assessment and management of clients is a task assigned to the
Credit Risk Department and Retail and SME Risk Management Department, the analysis of market, operational and fraud risks
and compliance with Basel III regulations, capital adequacy calculations, developing credit risk models at the portfolio level is
the task assigned to Integrated Credit Risk Department.
(7.1) Credit Risk Management
Risk and credit assessment of non-retail clients is based on individual analysis and rating, typically with quarterly financial
monitoring and yearly limit review. In retail and micro enterprise financing there is an automated scorecard-based assessment.
Constraints of financing are represented by the desired balance of business and risk factors as determined by the owner and
the management of the Bank, the act on financial institutions and other legislations and the framework defined by the Bank’s
Credit Policy.
The economic crisis due to coronavirus pandemic did not cause in 2021 a systematic and mass increase in the balance of non-
performing loans, only a few clients became non-performing, amongst them some with relatively higher exposure. Thus, non-
performing rate for corporates was about 2% in 2021, for retail it stabilised at about 5%, remaining below the mid-term
strategic plan.  This healthy level was also facilitated by measures for clearance of non-performing portfolio continuing in 2021
along with the application of standard workout methods. In 2022, the Bank still did not experience any systematic portfolio
deterioration in the corporate segment, the NPE ratio remained at the previous low level, moreover further decreased in the
retail segment to a level of around 4%, while in case of the entire banking portfolio, also taking into account credit risk bearing
banking book securities, it was only 1.9%.
This stable/slightly positive trend has been maintained in the first half of 2023, with no meaningful inflows into the non-
performing portfolio and individual sporadic cases are counterbalanced by recoveries and returns, with the NPE ratio across
the entire bank portfolio, taking into account credit risk bearing banking book securities, declining to 1.7% by the end of 2023
In 2024, the Bank’s  non-performing loan portfolio increased slightly (by approximately HUF 2.4 billion), however, one of the main
drivers of this additions was the exchange rate change impact  of non-performing corporate loans denominated in foreign
currency, in the amount of approximately +HUF 1.8 billion. The change in non-performing loans net of  exchange rate changes is
negligible overall. In segment view,  the decrease of recent years continued in the retail segment, while in the corporate
segment the newly recognized non-performing status of three corporate groups caused a noticeable increase. No relevant
systematic deterioration is noticeable in any segment. The problematic exposure management and collection efforts also
yielded significant results in 2024, significantly offsetting the emergence of new defaults. The ratio of non-performing loans at
bank level continued to decrease, to 1.3%.

Nevertheless,, current low default probabilities are expected to rise in the future. This is mainly due to the deterioration of the
business environment, supply chain problems, energy crisis, the high inflation environment, the narrowing of the demand and
investment side and negative developments in the real estate market, therefore the Bank has carried out strengthened and
intensive monitoring activities related to these dimensions since October 2021 supplemented with portfolio stress testing. The
Bank pays particular attention to analysing the expected direct and indirect impacts of increased geopolitical risks.
In retail segment, the portfolio remains stable with low default rates, however the Bank is prepared to manage the risks mainly
arising from persistent inflation, changes in the interest rate environment and the slow economic recovery.
Payment moratorium: Participation in the payment moratorium, in accordance with the relevant guidance of EBA, did not
automatically trigger default and payment difficulty in 2020 and thus the Bank pays particular attention to identifying debtors
presumably facing payment difficulties also during the term of the moratorium. In relation to clients opting in to moratorium 2
starting in 2021, then 3 and 4 and in relation to clients opting-in to agricultural moratorium in the second half of 2022, the Bank
made in case of corporates an extraordinary individual risk review to recognise worsening risk profiles and to determine
defaults and eventually necessary restructuring. As a result of the assessments, it identified a few new restructured portfolios
with a relatively low exposure. The small portfolio that still participated in the moratorium 4 will resume its repayments in
accordance with the relevant new loan schedule at the end of 2023. The Bank assessed clients entering into moratorium 2 also
in the retail segment. Clients in case of whom the Bank identified financial difficulties, were reclassified to non-performing
status. If the client had no financial difficulties but has been in moratorium for more than 9 months, was reclassified to Stage 2
and there is a close monitoring in place regarding the problems and financial difficulties of clients opting out of moratorium 2.
The Bank repeated the procedures for assessing clients’ financial situation at the start of moratorium 3 and 4 and in justified
cases, if information about the clients’ deteriorated financial situation became known since then, it reclassified them to
default, i.e., to Stage 3.
The payment moratorium ended at the end of 2023, but this did not result in a noticeable deterioration in the credit quality of
the portfolio either in 2023, nor in 2024. The Group will monitor and cure the transactions identified as forborne or non-
performing during the credit moratorium period in accordance with the normal recovery rules, provided that the relevant
preconditions are met.
The risk management procedures of the Bank operate in accordance with the requirements of Basel III and IFRS9. Base data
necessary to sophisticatedly measure risks are contained in structured form in a modern data warehouse. From 2012 the
capital requirement of the whole banking portfolio (corporate, retail and SME) is quantified using the advanced, internal rating
based (IRB) methodology. During 2017 the municipality portfolio was returned to the standard methodology. The Bank started
the same transformation in 2018 regarding financing the top segment of individuals which was completed in the last quarter
of 2019.
Capital requirement of baby loans, private banking and employee loans, as well as in retail segment the capital requirement of
products in crisis guarantee schemes related microsegment is calculated using the standard methodology.
Measuring and reporting risks is performed on a monthly and quarterly basis in compliance with the Bank’s and regulator’s
requirements. The Bank uses the results of risk models widely in pricing, in determining credit decisions and strategic directions,
thereby ensuring long-term capital adequacy, building up an profitable portfolio that is stable also in respect of risks and the
efficient usage of capital available.
The Bank reacted also in its credit policy to the changes caused by coronavirus and the changes caused by the following
energy crisis, rising inflation and interest rate environment: in judging riskiness of industries, besides higher granularity, the
volume/probability of short-term effects and expected mid-term prospect also plays a particular role. Financing activity
targets industries with better conditions and clients with stronger resilience, whereas the more vulnerable part of the portfolio
requires a more cautious approach. In respect of the latter the Bank acted with particular care also during determining
impairment and besides revisions of parameters and macro variables of the impairment models carried out taking a
conservative approach, it recognised additional impairment if necessary. In 2024, the most important risks covered by the
additional provisioning model on the corporate side are: real estate market yield risks, refinancing risk induced by the high
interest rate environment, inflation, supply chain squeeze, labour market difficulties and, as a new element, changes in
environmental impacts as additional risk factors. The Bank continuously revises and if justified adjusts the adequate level of
related reserves.   
During 2023, the Bank developed its methodology for assessing sustainability-related transition risks, primarily environmental
risks, as part of the corporate lending process, which are applied to its corporate portfolio from the first quarter of 2024.
In the retails segment, the measurement of climate change and physical risks related to extreme climate events, as well as the
quantification of the negative effects to mortgage collateral exposed to them, have been developed by the Bank and
incorporated into the impairment calculation during 2023.
In the retail segment in March 2020 the Bank identified increased risks based on the industry classification of the client’s
employer, building categories of high/medium/low risk based on expected economic downturn and in November 2020 decided
to apply portfolio level management adjustments, so-called overlays to appropriately represent also these risks in impairment
calculation. Furthermore, it recognised additional impairment losses on the riskiest clients participating in the moratorium,
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
12
Separate business report
which was revised at each extension of the moratorium. At the end of June 2023, the management corrections affecting the
moratorium were phased out 6 months after the end of the general payment moratorium, as the transactions concerned will
be evaluated in normal monitoring processes and are again subject to days past due calculations, thus not carrying additional
risks. During 2021 and 2022, the Bank fully examined changes in the income situation of customers in order to anticipate
potential problems. Due to the impact of energy market risks and increasing liquidity and profitability difficulties, the Bank
made portfolio-level management adjustments in both the micro and small enterprise segments several times during 2022. In
2023 it continued to closely monitor the transactions concerned but did not see any reason to phase out the adjustments as a
consequence of persistent inflationary pressures and the economic downturn. As a result of monitoring, the scope of
transactions concerned was redefined and expanded with sole entrepreneurs financed in the retail segment and companies
operating in risky industries and their employees. In 2024, due to the slow but rising unemployment rate and a significantly
slower than expected recovery of economic growth in Hungary, the Bank has maintained management overlays for the most
credit risk-sensitive customer groups, which have been fine-tuned to reflect the results of ongoing customer monitoring, due to
risks not covered by the model.
(7.2) Operational Risk Management
All organisational units participate actively in managing and as necessary decreasing the level of operational risk (department,
region, subsidiary). The Bank makes significant efforts to improve the risk management organisation and increase risk
awareness, which includes identifying, collecting, assessing, reporting, monitoring and also managing operational risks
threatening to achieve the Bank’s business goals. The main tools used to identify risks are collection of loss data, risk
indicators, scenario analyses and risk self-assessments. In course of this work the root causes of all identified operational risk
events are explored and used up in decisions on process improvements.
In order to further strengthen the operational risk management activity, the Bank implemented those standards that comply
with the requirements imposed by the advanced measurement method.
The Bank continues to efficiently operate the operational risk framework AMA (Advanced Measurement Approach) introduced
in 2016.
(7.3) Market and Liquidity Risk Management
Market and liquidity risk is managed within the Bank at a number of levels using advanced methods and infrastructure,
monitoring is performed independently of business functions. Measuring and reporting risks is done on a daily/weekly/monthly
and quarterly basis in compliance with the requirements of the Bank and the regulator. Grouping, measuring, managing of risks
and building economic capital is done in the framework of the Group’s ICAAP processes.
Measuring and controlling the risks is effected through complex risk, position, stop loss and VaR limit systems, the methodology
of which is in accordance with the requirements of the parent bank and the regulator. Management of market and liquidity
risks related to banking activity covers the following areas: trading book and banking book interest rate risk; the Bank’s liquidity
risk also from going concern and stress point of view; the risk arising from illiquidity of market positions; share price risk,
foreign currency risk, risk inherent in option trading, counterparty risk of OTC derivative transactions. In addition to that, this
function of the Bank ensures the independent pricing of various financial instruments in accordance with regulation required
by the parent bank and by IFRS 9. In addition to this, Market Risk function is responsible for controlling the market-conformity
of capital and money market transactions.
(7.4) Fraud Risk Management
Fraud risk is a dominant element of operational risks. The areas of the  Bank responsible for managing and handling fraud risk
pay special attention to all fraud incidents and continuously monitor and evaluate fraud trends. The insights gained from these
activities are consistently integrated into the core or monitoring processes.  .
(8) Environmental protection
In 2024, the Bank successfully conducted the annual surveillance audit of Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. Environmental Management
System operated according to the ISO 14001:2015 standard, as well as the Energy Management System according to the ISO
50001:2018 standard.
As part of the branch network re-design program, the renewal of mechanical and lighting systems to increase energy
efficiency (LED implementation) continued throughout 2024, with significant energy investments made at a total of 12
locations.

Following the first full year of operation of the solar power plant (HMKE) at the RBSC building in Nyíregyháza, actual production
and usage data show that the system provided 23% of the total electricity demand. This locally generated electricity
prevented the emission of approximately 29.29 tons of CO2 equivalent greenhouse gases into the environment in 2024. The
implementation of solar systems at branches will continue in 2025.
The "greening" of the Bank's vehicle fleet did not stop in 2024. Utilizing the "RRF-10.10.1-24 Support for the acquisition of road
electric vehicles for businesses" grant, Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. commissioned a total of 16 Hyundai Kona EV vehicles. To reduce
operating costs, the Bank also ensured the establishment of charging facilities for the cars. A total of 13 AC devices with a
maximum charging capacity of 11 kW were installed at eight locations in the country (Debrecen, Gödöllő, Nyíregyháza (2
locations), Kecskemét, Miskolc, Pécs, and Szeged). At the end of January 2025, another 9 EV chargers will be put into operation
at the AGORA headquarters.
(9) Sustainability
Our planet, the biodiversity and the quality of our life is largely impacted by the natural factors making up the biological
system. The business activity of the financial sector has a significant impact on the environment and on society. However, this
is a two-way relationship, the finance sector itself is also affected by environmental and social factors. The two most
significant environmental effects of these times are climate change and biodiversity loss.
In terms of defining environmental, social and governance (ESG) risks, the Bank follows EBA’s position and take on a prudential
view when it comes to ESG, elaborating on the risks related to it, i.e. ‘ESG risks materialize when the ESG factors affecting
institutions’ counterparties have a negative impact on the financial performance or solvency of such market players’.  As ESG
refers to environmental, social and governance aspects, the Bank identifies the following risks from these aspects. The detailed
information about ESG related topics is disclosed in the separate and consolidated non-financial statement.
Key considerations of ESG risks
Environmental risks
Environmental risks are driven by environmental factors. They should be understood as the financial risks posed by the
institutions’ exposures to counterparties that may both potentially contribute to or be affected by climate change and other
forms of environmental degradation (such as air pollution, water pollution, scarcity of fresh water, land contamination,
biodiversity loss and deforestation).
The Bank identifies environmental risks as a result of the following factors:
· Transition-related risks: regulatory, technological and market changes that generate changes in the lending and
other risks arising in the course of banking activities related to climate change, environmental pollution and water
ecological processes.
· Physical risks: acute or chronic environmental events related to climate change, environmental pollution and aquatic
ecological processes that directly endanger the physical integrity and security of assets and/or customers financed
in the course of banking activities, thereby affecting their operability, income-generating capacity and value, as well
as the security of supply chains. Acute physical risks include: floods, storms, droughts, forest fires. Chronic physical
risks include: desertification, sea level rise, air and water quality, permanent deterioration of water volumes, and
persistent increase in temperature.
Social risks
Social risks arise from financial impact generated by misuse of human capital such the rights, well-being and interests of
people and communities.
Governance risks
Governance risks refer to the governance practice of the institutions’ counterparties, including the inclusion of ESG factors in
policies and procedures under the governance of the counterparties.
These risks affect:
· the value of the companies' assets, business model, income-generating capacity, supply chains, investable resources,
regulatory environment;
· household income, expenditure, and the value of their assets;
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
14
Separate business report
· and at the macroeconomic level, the value of capital assets, investment needs, productivity and competitiveness
levels, consumer preferences, and the related operation of public finances, interest rates and exchange rates.
These changes may be reflected in the Bank's operations as follows:
· credit risk: increased defaults, depreciation of collateral;
· market risk: unexpected changes in asset price movements that are difficult to predict;
· operational risk: vulnerabilities in supply chains, physical operational risks;
· liquidity risk: increased liquidity needs, refinancing risk;
· reputational risks: reputational damage due to inadequate management of the above, risks of being painted ‘green’.
Risk framework
The Bank takes these risks into account in its risk frameworks over different time horizons as follows:
Short term
Individual risks
The Bank implicitly takes into account the mentioned risks in the corporate customer base during the annual review and credit
approval process. In 2023, a modification of the lending process was introduced, in the course of which the Bank
explicitly analyses the environmental assessment of the customer and the loan objective on the business side ('ESG expert
opinion') and presents the identifiable environmental risk profile ('ESG risk assessment') as a separate part of the risk manager's
position on the risk side.
The Bank conducts an increasing number of surveys to its customers in order to obtain access to their sustainability data (in
the form of an electronic questionnaire). In the survey, in addition to estimated and factual data related to GHG emissions, the
Bank collects data on water and land use; waste production and environmental pollution characteristics. In addition to short-
term consideration, these data also serve as input for the assessment of medium-term (ESG score) and long-term (climate
scenarios). The Bank has taken note of the National Bank of Hungary's recommendation for a customer questionnaire in this
regard and will supplement its own questions with the minimum set of questions recommended, in the future, keeping in mind
the deadlines set.
The Bank is making efforts to obtain energy performance data for collaterals. Where the legal environment allows, it is a
mandatory condition to provide the related certificates in the case of new funding, and in the case of existing funding and/or
in the absence of a legal obligation, data collection is carried out on a ‘best effort’ basis within targeted campaigns.
The Bank has implemented sector-wide lending policies to define sustainability financing conditions. By the end of 2024, it has
established clear lending policies in the following sectors: tobacco, coal, renewable energy, oil and gas; steel, nuclear energy,
real estate and construction and related raw materials.
Portfolio risks
With the help of scientific methodologies (PCAFs) and estimates, measurements were made regarding the financed GHG
intensity of the corporate customer base, which is published in the separate and consolidated non-financial statement for
2024 as the first time, section ‘E1-6: Gross scopes 1, 2, 3 and total GHG emissions’.
For the corporate segment the additional risk arising from ESG factors was considered using the Special Risk Factors (SRF)
Framework, primarily to account for unmodelled macroeconomic effects but also to cover environmental risks as a temporary
compensations of the model weaknesses. More details are disclosed under note (6.2) Credit risk.
Mid-term
Individual risks
In 2022, the Bank introduced an ESG scoring system to assess customers in a standardized way from the environmental
perspective. The model was developed by the parent company (RBI), and its use is uniform for the medium-sized and large
corporate customers. The ESG score has no direct impact on the client's credit rating. The ESG model is based on an industry
base score, supplemented by an additional carbon dioxide emission factor. It is possible to deviate the industry average score
in this way in a positive or negative direction along individual customer specifics. During scoring, the risk analyst evaluates a
number of aspects based on the client's report, data reporting and disclosures, which, supplemented with the data of the
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
Separate business report
15
above-mentioned electronic questionnaire (where available), determines a final client score within the industry score limits. The
ESG score can provide guidance on the calibration of customers' expected environmental risks in the medium term, and as
such, it serves as input information for the above-mentioned sustainability assessments related to the lending process.
Portfolio risks
Based on the ESG Score mentioned above, the Bank plans to introduce portfolio management tools in the future (sub-portfolio
level measurements, targets and limits), which will be broken down to a local level based on the parent company's group-level
limit management. In 2025, it is expected to introduce a monitoring process for the change in the average ESG Score of the
portfolio above 10%, as well as for the maximum amount of the part of the portfolio with the worst ESG Score.
Regarding the Group’s ambitions towards the 2015 Paris Agreement climate targets, the Bank committed to reducing its
financed GHG emissions by 17% by the end of 2030, based on the level measured at the end of 2023. The objective for the
corporate client portfolio has been formulated as an overarching target and was approved by the Board of Directors. In the
coming years, this effort is expected to be further developed and detailed sector-specific goals may be developed.
Long-term
Portfolio risks
A long-term Climate Stress Test has been prepared at the level of the RBI Group and its subsidiaries, taking into account the
above-mentioned customer and collateral sustainability data, along the scenarios defined by the EBA. The Bank's results have
been completed by the end of 2024, which examined the long-term impact of climate risks on the Bank's profitability and
capital adequacy in each scenario. The results show that the Bank is not exposed to significant risk overall over the 2030-40-50
time horizon, but there are portfolios that are more vulnerable under certain scenarios.
Reference to the non-financial disclosure
During the reporting period, it was determined that there are no financially material risks from climate change to the regular
risk parameters (market risk, credit risk, operational risk, and liquidity risk). The effects of climate change are only observed
through scenario analyses over longer periods. The effects from climate risks are incorporated into risk measurement and
limitation. Further information on the nature, extent and mitigation of climate change risk are available in the separate and
consolidated non-financial statement’s chapter IRO-1: ‘Process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities’.
(10) Employment policy
The Bank is one of the leading employers in the financial sector: at 2024 the average statistical number was 2,573. It is
especially important for the Bank to carry out its activities as a fair and correct employer, on the one hand fully considering
and complying with the prescriptions of the Hungarian Labour Code, on the other hand ensuring favourable work and career
opportunities and continuous professional development and development as a leader to its employees.
Recruitment and selection is done centrally, in course of the activity of HR, paying attention to the core principles of inclusive
culture and taking care that diversity be a part of the daily selection practice. The Bank’s selection practice is focused on
trained and qualified workforce, however at the same time it provides an opportunity also to graduates for intensive
professional development.
The Bank pays attention to and strives for ensuring for its employees fair and competitive income compared to Hungarian
labour market. Fringe benefits, within the framework of Cafeteria system, provide a choice for the colleagues to select from a
wide range of benefit most fitting their personal needs.
All employees are covered by the performance development process operated by the Bank, which provides a framework for
clear goal setting, constructive feedback and well-grounded performance evaluations. Performance-dependent financial and
moral rewards incentivise the colleagues to achieve outstanding performance.
The Bank has a complex training and development activity, which is focused, besides developing professional knowledge and
skills, on programmes to improve personal, managerial, language and IT skills. At the end of the year, the Bank’s employees
spent an average of 5.79 days on training and development events and programs, without e-learning 1.16 days. The continuous
development of employees’ digital skills has a major role in the training and development portfolio, that is supported with the
annual Digital Learning Week event starting from 2021 together with the numerous professional trainings. The Bank supports
the colleagues in successful and effective coping with everyday performance challenges and stress situations with community
building and employee well-being programmes.

The Bank operates a comprehensive and conscious succession planning practice, the goal of which on the one hand is the
retention of managers and employees working in key professional roles, on the other hand the succession planning and
development.
Workplace Council operates within the organisational framework of the Bank, ensuring consideration of employee interests.
With the introduction of the flexible working framework in 2020, the Bank organised, except for the critical business areas, the
employees’ working from home, which, subsequent to the pandemic, as a new standard will remain an integral part of the
operation and will continue to be operated in a framework and construction based on the field of work.
(11) Compliance activity

General information
Basis of preparation
BP-1: General basis for preparation of non-financial statement
In preparing this non-financial statement (‘Non-financial statement’ or ‘Sustainability statement’), Raiffeisen Group. (‘RBHU
Group’ or ‘Group’ or 'Bank') acknowledges certain inherent limitations due to the initial reporting under the Corporate
Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). Consequently, comparisons over time may be constrained as frameworks for
sustainability reporting are continuously evolving. The data collection processes and methodologies for certain sustainability
metrics are still being refined. As such, some data points may be subject to estimation and may not capture all aspects of
performance accurately. Any future changes in structure or operations may impact the reported sustainability metrics. The
sustainability impacts reported herein are influenced by external factors such as regulatory changes, market conditions, and
technological advancements, which may affect the outcomes of our/RBHU Group’s sustainability initiatives.
We are committed to continuously improving our sustainability reporting processes and addressing these limitations in future
reports to provide more comprehensive and reliable information to our stakeholders.
Disclaimer on separate non-financial statement
Given the complex nature of the interrelated services within Raiffeisen Bank Group and its activities, the value chains, as well
as the impacts’, risks’, and opportunities’ conceptual framework thereon, a standalone report for the Raiffeisen Bank, as parent
company would not be suitable to present sustainability related material impacts, risks, and opportunities (IROs) aligned with
the purpose of the report.  For all these reasons the Raiffeisen Bank, as parent company prepared this report on a consolidated
basis. This method is suitable for consolidated and also for separate reporting purposes of in the annual reports.
Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. is dedicated to the continuous improvement and transparency of its reporting practices.
Section 134/J (1) of the Accounting Act stipulates that RBHU Group must prepare its consolidated business report in the
electronic reporting format (XHTML) as specified in Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/815 (ESEF Regulation).
Additionally, the sustainability statements defined by the ESEF taxonomy in the consolidated sustainability statement are
required to be marked up using the XBRL markup language, including the disclosures mandated by Article 8 of Regulation (EU)
2020/852. However, given that the ESEF taxonomy for sustainability statements has not yet been adopted, the Consolidated
sustainability statement does not contain XBRL markups due to the absence of the relevant legislation.
The non-financial statement provides information on Raiffeisen Group. sustainability agendas and activities for the 2024
reporting period. This chapter represents the Bank’s summarized and consolidated sustainability statement according to
Directive (EU) 2022/2464 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 December 2022 amending Regulation (EU) No
537/2014, Directive 2004/109/EC, Directive 2006/43/EC and Directive 2013/34/EU, as regards corporate sustainability reporting,
OJ L 322, 16.12.2022, p. 15–80. (the ‘Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive’ or ‘CSRD’) and local law (pursuant to sections
95/D-95/I of the Hungarian Act C of 2000 on Accounting).
The non-financial statement for 2024 is not published as a stand-alone report, but it is included as part of the 2024 annual
financial report in a separate chapter of the management report. In the management report, RBHU Group describes the direct
and indirect economic, environmental, and social impacts of business activities for the year 2024, which were identified as
material based on the double materiality assessment in accordance with the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/2772
of 31 July 2023 supplementing Directive 2013/34/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards sustainability
reporting standards, OJ L, 2023/2772, 22.12.2023 (the ‘European Sustainability Reporting Standards or ESRS’) In line with the
requirements in ESRS 1, RBHU Group has included the prescribed disclosures pursuant to the EU Taxonomy Regulation (Article 8
of Regulation (EU) 2020/852 and the accompanying delegated acts) as separately identifiable sections in this non-financial
statement.
Based on RBHU Group’s double materiality assessment, the 2024 consolidated non-financial statement is organized according
to the ESRS disclosure framework. In terms of content, RBHU Group reports on its sustainability Strategy, the related impacts,
financial risks, opportunities and how it manages them, as well as considerations of stakeholders’ views. The reported key
figures relate to RBHU Group as a whole. The consolidated non-financial statement addresses all RBHU Group’s stakeholders.
The consolidated non-financial statement is published annually, and for the year 2024, it was released on 27 March 2025.

the reporting year 2024. The option of excluding certain information relating to intellectual property, know-how, or the results
of innovations relating to disclosure has not been utilized in this sustainability statement.
The legal norms and recommendations indicated in this report do not necessarily constitute the full regulatory framework
applicable to the Bank; therefore, the Group disclaims any responsibility for  its completeness. The referred regulations  are
provided solely to assist with the interpretation of the text.
The permitted option of omitting the disclosure of impending developments or matters in the course of negotiation has not
been utilized by RBHU Group.
This report has been prepared on a consolidated basis. For details, please refer to the chapter entitled Scope of consolidation.
The scope of consolidation of the consolidated non-financial statement covers upstream and downstream value chains.
The consolidated non-financial statement is presented in million Hungarian Forints. If not stated otherwise, financial
information is presented in Hungarian Forints rounded to the nearest million.
Scope of consolidation
The scope of consolidation of the consolidated non-financial statement is generally the same as for the consolidated financial
statements, which are prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) published by the
International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the international accounting standards adopted by the EU on the basis of
IAS Regulation (EC) 1606/2002, including the applicable interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Standards.
With this said there are same parts in the Report (as listed within this section), where RBHU Group has to deviate from the
general consolidation in order to provide material information, furthermore, provide a transparent and rational picture from its
ESG factors and aspects.
Further information regarding the scope of consolidation can be found in the consolidated financial statements in note (44)

BP-2: Disclosures in relation to specific circumstances
Time horizons
Explanations of time horizons in risk management
For climate and environment-related risk, RBHU Group differentiates between the impact expected in the short, medium and
long term in line with the European Central Bank (ECB) guide on managing climate-related and environmental risks and RBI
Group’s approach. As the planning horizon and average loan tenor are typically shorter than the time horizon in which the
effects of climate-related change and environmental degradation would primarily arise, a forward-looking approach is
considered with a longer-than-usual time horizon:
· Short term (up to three years) – risks mainly associated with transition risks (e.g. changes in legislation and
regulation, changes in technology), i.e. the ability of companies and customers to achieve the transition to a low-
carbon economy. The Bank sees opportunities both from supporting its customers with financing, allowing them to
achieve the transition to a low-carbon economy, as well as potentially increasing the financing directed at industries
that are already green (e.g. renewables) and supporting industries that are contributing to the development of a
circular economy.
· Medium term (more than three years, up to ten years) – risks driven by the paradigm shift in business models, the
emergence of new technologies and continuous updating of regulations, with potentially increasing risks from a
physical perspective (if CO2 reduction is not achieved as targeted). Both physical and transition risks will pose
challenges. Technological risks can arise if innovations in connection with energy efficiency result in old technologies
that RBHU Group has invested in becoming outdated and unprofitable. On the other hand, investments in new
technologies can also fail if they prove to be technically immature. Regulatory risk in connection with stricter
environmental protection laws and regulations can also make existing investments less profitable or even
unprofitable. The withdrawal of many investors from the fossil energy sector, especially coal and carbon-dependent
industries, is an indication that the corresponding assets of the customers or investees can be expected to fall in
value over the medium term (carbon bubble). On the other hand, RBHU Group sees a good opportunity in terms of
investing in new technologies that are more likely to be profitable in the medium term (and divesting from coal).
· Long term (more than ten years) – challenges will come from physical risks, their impact on customers’ business
models and supply chains, as well as on their ability to mitigate and ensure that their repayment capacity is not

severely affected. In the event of an insufficiently orderly climate transition, various long-term scenario analyses
suggest large losses, particularly for carbon-intensive industries.
Sources of estimation and outcome uncertainty
Quantitative information about key value chain activities is often based on averages, assumptions and estimates. RBHU Group
tries to obtain sustainability data directly from its clients. If estimates or quantitative information do not refer to the current
reporting date, they are disclosed in the respective chapters. Where this is not possible external data vendors or sector
averages are used. In most cases several data sources are used. As more sustainability-related information becomes available
and standardized, for example as a result of the adoption of ESRS, the Bank expects to be able to reduce the estimation
uncertainty related to it. The main metrics applied by RBI, and subsequently RBHU Group, using estimates based on indirect
sources, are Scope 3 emissions. This involves the provision of data quality information in alignment with PCAF (2022). The Bank
indicates a high level of measurement uncertainty where metrics or monetary amounts are disclosed.
For corporate customers as well as for project finance transactions, RBI Group has developed an ESG customer score by
measuring the impact of ESG-related risk through individual scores, which are sourced centrally to each NWU, therefore to
RBHU Group as well.
ESG customer score
The ESG customer score is used to:
· Assess the ESG performance of customers;
· Assess the mid- to long term-related risk arising from customers’ ESG behaviour;
· Identify customers with a restrictive, transformative, or supportive ESG performance and draw conclusions for the
underwriting decisions on certain customers.
The ESG score is based on the following components:
· Environmental: measures the impact of transition risk and physical risk; focus areas are to support transition to a
net zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emission, the circular economy and biodiversity; in addition, the Bank is able to
identify those customers that it would like to support further: either on their way to a low-carbon economy, as a
contributor to the circular economy, or due to their low impact/enabling function vis-à-vis the environment (already
green industries). The E score is determined on the basis of both quantitative and qualitative factors. Quantitative
factors that are considered in the E score relate to the following (this list is not exhaustive):
· Customer CO2 emissions (all 3 scopes);
· Energy consumption;
· CO2 reduction targets;
· Water use;
· Share of renewables, etc.
Qualitative factors address the actions that the company has put in place (if any) to tackle its environmental
footprint, including target setting.
· Social: capturing social risks at the customer level and identifying those with a negative impact on society and/or
that contradict the Bank’s internal societal standards and reflect negatively on its reputation. Positive impacts will
also be considered and potential support for such customers may subsequently be envisaged. Compliance with
existing health and human rights regulations has already been considered. A more extensive update of the ESG
scoring model was performed in relation to human rights. RBI Group, and RBHU Group has taken a closer look at the
following areas relating to its customers:
· Social/human rights-related Code of Conduct and supplier screening;
· Minimum safety standards in the work environment;
· Appropriate business behaviour;
· Supporting diversity and educational aspects at the employee level.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024

Separate non-financial statement
The respective social score questions for assessing social risks can be assigned to five major areas related to the
social aspects of a company:
· General information;
· Human capital/human rights;
· Responsible production;
· Product-related aspects;
· Customer-related aspects.
· Governance: governance-related risks at the customer level are measured by scoring questions on transparency,
business ethics, diversity, strategy and risk management, specifically at the top management level.
The ESG customer score is based on individual assessments by internal analysts. Qualitative and quantitative information on E,
S and G criteria is used to evaluate the customer. The ESG score is determined for all corporate credit customers. All customers
in the corporate, project finance and sovereign category have an ESG score. For financial institutions, the ESG score was rolled
out for year-end 2024.
Customer data collection
ESG data availability is crucial for the RBI Group and RBHU Group to develop internal customer ESG scoring, track the reduction
of financed emissions and make informed internal steering decisions. Many customers are not yet subject to a regulatory
reporting regime, which is why ESG data is not available for the entire portfolio. Additionally, data is subject to fluctuations in
quality. Often, estimated values – such as for Scope 3 emissions – are used. To improve the availability and quality of data, RBI
and RBHU Group uses a variety of internal and external ESG data sources:
· Client data
· ESG questionnaire
· Non-financial statements
· 3rd party data vendors
· Public databases
· Deal level data
· Energy Performance Certificates
Despite the poor availability, the highest priority is put on audited/verified client data, the lowest priority is given to estimates. 
RBI has created a customer questionnaire that enables it to gather relevant information on environmental aspects directly
from its customers. Since the Bank already covers social and governance-related questions in the regular rating process, the
focus has been on collecting quantitative data on environmental topics.
The customer questionnaire covers the most important environmental aspects, in particular data on:
· GHG emissions;
· Reduction targets;
· Circular economy;
· Energy consumption;
· Water consumption;
· EU Taxonomy KPIs (Turnover, CAPEX). 
Every year the set of ESG data points is reviewed with the respective stakeholders – new data points are added while no
longer necessary ones get removed from the data collection. Social and governance-related information is gathered from both
annual reports and sustainability statements of the customers.
To further improve data availability and data quality, the Bank employs or plans to employ a mix of measures:

· Engaging with clients and create awareness;
· Will consider implementing detailed KPIs at board level;
· Performing data quality checks;
· Visualizing data collection progress through reports and dashboards.
The remaining topics included in the second pillar can be found in the specific CSRD chapters:
· Green Asset Ratio (see chapter entitled Regulatory disclosure requirement in accordance with Article 8 of the EU
Taxonomy Regulation);
· Financed emissions (see chapter E1-6: Gross scopes 1, 2, 3 and total GHG emissions);
· Target setting (see chapter E1-4: Targets related to climate change mitigation and adaptation).
Disclosures stemming from other legislation or generally accepted sustainability reporting
statements
Regulatory disclosure of ESG risks
Since the 2022 financial year, the RBI Group has been required to disclose the Implementing Technical Standards (ITS) on Pillar 3
disclosures on Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) risks as published by EBA, in which RBHU Group was represented on
a consolidated basis. These standards aim to ensure that stakeholders are well informed about the ESG exposures, risks and
strategies of institutions, that they can make informed decisions and exercise market discipline. The aim is to guarantee the
improved consistency, comparability, and meaningfulness of disclosures by institutions.
According to Article 18a of Regulation (EU) 2021/637, Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. shall disclose the information referred to in Article
449a of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 as amended by Regulation (EU) 2024/1623 as of 30 June 2025.

Employees (specific units)
Facility Management
The operation of RBHU Group Facility Management is carried out under the direct supervision of the CPO department, with the
CPO itself being part of the CFO organization. Facility Management is responsible for the daily operational management of
RBHU Group's headquarters and branch network, as well as coordinating its energy management and environmental
management activities. The first area of activity includes ensuring the operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of energy
supply systems, preparing and assisting in the procurement of energy carriers (natural gas, district heating, electricity)
necessary for operation, and participating in the procurement process. The second area of activity includes tasks such as
operating and maintaining the certified Energy Management System (ISO 50001) and the Environmental Management System
(ISO 14001) at RBHU Group's headquarters and branch network and continuously improving energy management and
environmental performance. Furthermore, Facility Management is also responsible for preparing the annual energy
consumption report and for preparing the Scope 1 and 2 calculations, by collecting the relevant data and transferring it to the
colleagues dealing with ESG Cockpit data reporting.
Human Resource Department
HR Function sustainability activities include ensuring fair labor practices, enhancing employee well-being, providing training
and development opportunities, implementing ethical recruitment processes, providing a performance measurement
framework which aligned with broader environmental, social, and governance (ESG) goals.
Internal Controls
The Internal Control System supports the efficient design and effective implementation of the overall control environment to
achieve the organization’s operating, financial reporting, and regulatory compliance objectives. Through identification,
development, documentation, prioritization, and periodic control testing, the Internal Controls System helps to assure the
suitability of the control environment. It is a critical component of bank management; it allows the company to foresee
potential problems and thereby prevent or minimize the risk of unexpected losses or damage to its reputation.
The Internal Control System is taking part in the overall risk assessment procedure. During the operational risk assessment – in
alignment with the Bank's Operational Risk Management Framework – current and future risk exposures are identified and
evaluated. The outcome of the risk assessment reveals the Bank's risk profile, based on which the mitigation measures can be
defined.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
Separate non-financial statement

In this regard, the risk assessment serves as a tool for monitoring and improving compliance to ensure the Bank operates
according to compliance principles and regulations.
Certain climate change and environmental risks are defined as compliance relevant risks. The Board of Directors receives a
quarterly summary report from the Bank's Compliance Officer, which includes assessments related to the compliance-relevant
climate change and environmental risks.
In 2024, the Internal Control System undertook a deep dive on the Implementation of the „Green Recommendation” of the
National Bank of Hungary in RBHU Group.
Credit Portfolio Management
Credit Portfolio Management is responsible for portfolio-level credit risk identification and steering. As such, it identifies and
manages portfolio risks by setting and monitoring portfolio limits and KPIs. In hierarchical terms, it is assigned to Financial
Institutions, Country and Portfolio Management, which reports directly to the head of Corporate Credit Risk Management. In
view of the significant and increasing importance of ESG risks and their potential steering impact Corporate Credit Risk
Management has assumed responsibility for steering and implementing ESG-related credit risk management processes,
including customer ESG classification, ESG underwriting aspects and activities, and portfolio ESG level targets steering and
monitoring. For the time being portfolio KPIs are targeting the average ESG score of the corporate credit portfolio. Other ESG
strategical KPIs and ESG risk assessment issues not strongly and directly impacting the creditworthiness of the customers are
managed by the Risk Controlling area.
Corporate Credit Risk Management
Corporate Credit Risk Management is a division assigned to the CRO, responsible for rating analysis, underwriting, contract-
and collateral management, portfolio management and credit risk methodology steering of corporate loan customers. In
terms of ESG and ESG risks, it performs ESG score analysis throughout the credit rating process. The rating analyst evaluates
the ESG score of the customer by considering both qualitative and quantitative facts and information. Qualitative facts include
the sustainability and annual report, policies, and mitigation aspects the corporate has in place, while quantitative aspects
involve quantitative environmental data such as emission data and energy consumption. For the social and governance score,
the analyst assesses the entire picture of the company, including the value chain and internal human resources topics. In
underwriting, underwriters use the ESG score of the customer and the ESG assessment of the industry, in addition to credit
rating aspects, to decide if a loan or limit application can be supported. Collateral management is responsible for assessing
ESG aspects, such as physical risks, during collateral valuation.
Integrated Risk Management
Integrated Risk Management fulfills the Risk Controlling duties for the Bank and reports to the CRO. With respect to ESG risk,
the main responsibilities of Integrated Risk Management are the integration of ESG risk to the ICAAP (e.g. risk assessment and
stress testing), disclosure reporting, HO calculated financed emission and green asset ratio controlling, reporting and
interpretation.
This department also covers several responsibilities related to ESG Risk Data Integration, acting as a coordinator between
head office sourced tasks and other delivery units of RBHU Group. It takes part in coordinating the local ESG data collection
and data sourcing, including the respective tools and platforms for customer data that support regulatory reporting and
rating generation. Additionally, it provides advisory functions on how to implement ESG-induced changes in the process
landscape of RBHU Group and on an ad-hoc basis might take part in client support and advisory on providing ESG-related data,
Green and Social flagging of the financed loans and advances.
Policy frameworks as governance instruments
Policies are a cornerstone of governance and managing impacts, risks and opportunities. The RBHU Group policy framework is
based on different types of internal regulations:
· Management Directives as framework regulations
· Operational Directives and Procedures for covering End-to-End processes
· Product Directives and Accounting Directives
· Standard Operating Procedures for covering detailed processes.
The entire Management is responsible for approving new, updated and cancelled Management Directives. Senior management
is responsible for approving new, updated and cancelled Operational Directives, Procedures, Product Directives, Accounting
Directives and Standard Operating Procedures. The rules stated in the internal policies are mandatory and binding, unless
otherwise stated in the policy itself. The scope of application is defined for each policy by the respective policy owners and
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024

Separate non-financial statement
approved by the respective approval authorities. The RBHU Group policy database is the standard information platform for
RBHU Group and the official source for all RBHU Group internal policies. All employees at head office as well as employees in the
various units can access such data at all times. Information on new and updated policies is also sent to the relevant employees
on a regular basis. All policies must be kept up-to-date by the policy authors and owners and therefore updated in intervals as
may be required by applicable law, or if there is no such requirement, at least once every three years after approval.
GOV-2: Information provided to and sustainability matters addressed by the
undertaking’s administrative, management and supervisory bodies
The Management Board and relevant committees are informed on a regular basis about material impacts, risks, and
opportunities, including ad hoc meetings and the Sustainability Council. These updates are provided by senior management,
including the Chief Risk Officer and sustainability officers. This regular flow of information ensures that the Management
Board, the Board of Directors and its committees are well-equipped to oversee and guide the bank’s strategy and operations
regarding sustainability impacts, risks, and opportunities effectively.
The Management Board considers impacts, risks, and opportunities when overseeing the bank’s strategy, decision-making on
major transactions, and risk management processes. This involves an evaluation of how these factors align with and influence
the bank’s long-term strategic goals. When reviewing major transactions and strategic initiatives, the Management Board and
relevant committees assess the potential trade-offs associated with various impacts, risks, and opportunities. They ensure
that decisions are made with a comprehensive understanding. The Management Board and the Board of Directors ensure that
the bank’s strategic decisions and risk management practices also include a sustainability perspective. This approach enables
RBHU Group to address complex challenges while simultaneously seizing opportunities.
In 2024 the Management Board focused on the transition plan, the ESG data collection and regulatory compliance. In this

GOV-3: Integration of sustainability-related performance in incentive scheme
Based on RBI’s Remuneration policies and practices related to the sale and provision of retail banking products and services
incentive schemes shall not promote the offer or provision of a specific product or category of products over other products,
such as products which are more profitable for the Relevant NWU or Relevant person, to the detriment of the consumer. At
RBHU Group, there is no part of the variable remuneration that depends on sustainability-related targets.
GOV-4: Statement on due diligence
The financial services sector itself has for years been confronted with many challenges and risks. In order to remain profitable
over the long term, these challenges call for a strong culture of risk management and sustainability. Compliance with
appropriate due diligence processes is therefore of particular importance. The following overview provides information on
which sections of the current sustainability statement contain core elements of due diligence.

GOV-5: Risk management and internal controls over sustainability reporting
The Sustainability Statement was created in collaboration between units of RBHU Group with Strategy and Company Office as
leader of coordination. With this said data collection was carried out in the respective divisions on an ongoing basis. Draft
wording of the report was discussed by units, while division heads provided professional control over their respective parts.
Once the report is completed, approved by the Management Board, the Board of Directors, and the Audit Committee. Balanced
and comprehensive sustainability reporting is a priority for RBHU Group and its governing bodies, requiring compliance with all
statutory requirements. In this regard RBHU Group aims to tackle the risks arising out or in connection with preparing the
report.
Two main risks were identified in sustainability reporting: (i) the risk of overlooking material topics, leading to incomplete
report; and (ii) the risk of inaccurate data. To mitigate the first risk, a materiality assessment is conducted before report
preparation (see chapter SBM-3: Material impacts, risk and opportunities and their interaction with the strategy and business
model), ensuring all relevant topics are identified and addressed. There is a second risk that incorrect data is input into the
Sustainability Statement. To cover this risk, the content of the report is subject to internal controls and external audit.

Risk framework
Risk management is essential for implementing the ESG strategy and the associated risk control measures. RBI, and
subsequently RBHU Group gears its business model to the high-level strategic goal of creating long-term value in line with the
principles of responsible banking and regulatory requirements. In concrete terms, the Bank identifies, acknowledges, and aligns
the continuous development of its risk management approach with the additional risks originating from ESG.
Firstly, there was a focus on tackling climate and environment-related risks (transition and physical risks), not only via an
assessment at the counterparty level but also by considering the potential impact of those risks stemming from the
materiality assessment and the internal/external climate stress test.  In the meantime, social and governance aspects are also
gaining increasing importance (as further described).
ESG-related risks have been accounted for by enhancing the existing classical four pillars of risk management on multiple
operational levels:
· Identification and definition of ESG risks;
· Measurement, methodologies and analytics;
· Steering approaches, reflecting risks and opportunities;
· Risk processes and governance.
ESG-related topics in the CRO area are addressed via the line organization, ensuring streamlined integration into daily
activities. The goal is to fully comply with regulatory requirements while aligning actions with the Bank’s business model. These
efforts closely adhere to the regulatory requirements outlined by the ECB and the EBA guides on climate-related and
environmental risks.
The risk perspective is enhanced by market and industry expectations, which are equally represented and integrated within the
ESG risk management processes.
When referring to the traditional four pillars of risk management, which are the foundation of the RBI Group risk management
approach, the Bank is currently focusing on addressing, quantifying, managing and further integrating the respective risks, as
well as the opportunities. The progress is measured via the regular monitoring and establishment of internal ESG KPIs. The
main topics reflected within each pillar are highlighted below (different time horizons are considered depending on the topic):
I. Identification & definition of ESG
risks
II. Measurement methodologies &
analytics
III. Steering approaches, reflecting
risks & opportunities
IV. Risk processes and governance
Climate-related and environmental
risks
Use of metrics for measurement of
ESG on a customer and portfolio
dimension:
Sectoral strategies & special policies
Credit processes enhancement
Identifying risks according to:
Climate change
Circularity
Biodiversity
Environmental, Social and
Governance score
Green Asset Ratio
Financed GHG emissions
Climate stress testing
Prevention of liability, reputational
and greenwashing risk in the design
phase
Social risks
Governance risks
The ESG risk framework ensures implementation across the four risk management pillars, offering a high-level overview and
guidance for ongoing and planned risk management activities in the Group. These actions are motivated by the expectations
of internal and external stakeholders. The framework is reviewed on a yearly basis, updated to the latest available trends and
future expectations, and approved by the Management Board.
Identification of ESG risks
Proper identification, definition and understanding of ESG risks are crucial. In the first phase, RBI and subsequently RBHU Group
has particularly focused on climate-related and environmental risks, although social and governmental risks are also gaining
increasing attention in internal risk initiatives, especially with new regulations such as the upcoming new EBA guidelines. An
initial qualitative and expert-driven approach has been further supported by quantitative assessments including impact
analysis, materiality assessments, financed emissions calculations, and climate stress tests.

The definition of ESG risks and the transmission channels to traditional risk types are explained in more detail in the following
chapter. The knowledge gained is transferred across the organization through different training activities (training sessions for
new topics, regular exchange sessions, etc.). ESG risk training has become mandatory in the risk area.
The financed emission calculation has reinforced the above-mentioned definition process and supports the Bank in identifying
the top carbon-intensive industries in its non-retail portfolio; a more detailed description and results are included under the
chapter E1-6: Gross scopes 1, 2, 3 and total GHG emissions.
Topic-specific disclosure requirements
Environmental risk
Climate and environmental risks are driven by environmental factors (E risks). In the outside-in view, these risks should be
understood as the financial risks posed by the Bank’s exposures to counterparties that may potentially contribute to or be
affected by climate change or adaption, and other forms of environmental degradation (such as air pollution, water pollution,
scarcity of fresh water, land contamination, biodiversity loss and deforestation). Related to this, the Bank and its customers
have to comply with additional political and social demands, otherwise the financed portfolio may face additional risks relating
to physical damage or transition.
As such, E risks can result in additional capital requirements, expenditures and potential losses of revenue, which may lead to a
deterioration in the respective credit standing and therefore have an adverse effect on the business, financial position and
results of RBHU Group’s operations. Further information on the different climate-related risks, and their transmission channels
to the traditional risk types (market, liquidity, credit and operational risks) can be found in the section on the assessment of the
materiality of climate and environment-related risks.
Social and governance risk
In alignment with RBI Group approach, these risks are addressed in RBHU Group’s internal risk framework, building on the
existing structure and internal information. The Bank is therefore continuously updating and refining its approach to enhance
its positive impact and align itself with the latest industry standards:
· Social risks arise from the financial impact generated by the misuse of human capital, e.g. regarding the rights, well-
being and interests of people and communities. This could refer to working conditions, health and safety, employee
relations and diversity, employee training, inclusiveness, equality or community programs. Regarding all E, S and G-
related topics, the framework also considers the country-specific situation as well as the legal background. For
example, countries with low (or high) standards in social aspects such as human rights have a lower (or higher) score.
This also impacts the ESG score of the customer: identical corporates with different country risk may have different
ESG scores due to varying country scores
· Governance risks refer to the governance practices of the Bank’s counterparties, including the inclusion of ESG
factors in policies and procedures under the governance of the counterparties. This may include, but is not limited to,
executive pay, board diversity and structure, shareholder rights, bribery and corruption, compliance, ethical
standards (e.g. data ethics), fair tax strategy, etc.
Risk processes and governance
Steering approaches, reflecting risk and opportunities
The Management Board is the most senior decision-making body for ESG-related strategies, policies and commitments. The
Management Board is supported in its ESG decisions by the cross-functional Sustainability Council.
From a risk management and supervision perspective, environmental, social and governance (ESG) risks are viewed as cross-
dimensional risks that affect all areas of risk management. As such, the ESG risks are currently under incorporation into the
Bank’s risk strategy as driver of management of existing risk types. The materiality assessment described in separate chapter
forms the basis for implementation in the ICAAP framework and is expected to be further refined over the coming years as
methodologies are further developed and common practices evolve. As such, each relevant risk department (market,
operational, liquidity and credit risk) is responsible for measuring environmentally-driven risk in accordance to the materiality
levels. The risk strategy and risk regulations and processes are continuously updated, refined and adjusted to the current
standards.
The ESG risk management dimension is currently in the course of being incorporated into the Bank’s Risk Strategy, however
from pure ESG perspective there is no single indicator yet as of now on which a risk capacity/ tolerance framework can be
robustly built.
The main tools for managing and supervising environment-related risks as of year-end 2024 are:
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024

· Environmental, social and governance score;
· Green Asset Ratio (GAR);
· Financed GHG emissions;
· Business policy on nuclear energy;
· Business policy on steel;
· Business policy on oil & gas;
· Business policy on real estate and construction;
· Business policy on thermal coal;
· Climate stress test methodology and results;
· Sustainability assessments in corporate lending and underwriting policy;
· RBHU Group ESG Rulebook.
Regarding specific reporting, ESG risk reports are continuously included, populated and distributed through the group risk
controlling reporting framework. These include: the financed emission calculation, physical risk assessment/vulnerability,
energy efficiency distribution, climate stress tests, exposure towards top polluters, ESG rating distribution and GAR results
report.
Steering approaches, reflecting risk and opportunities
RBHU Group has the intention to redefine and reshape its business in line with the latest market requirement and is committed
to meet regulatory requirements. Commitments have been made in the areas of thermal coal, nuclear power, arms and war
material, and gambling. Efforts have also been taken to (re)define the approach to industries with high CO2 emissions and/or
high negative environmental impacts by implementing the sector-specific group policies.
An overview of the existing policies can be found in chapter E1-2: Policies related to climate change mitigation and adaptation.
The results of the climate stress test can be found in chapter Climate stress testing.

Strategy related to sustainability
SBM-1: Strategy, business model and value chain
Our understanding of sustainability
For over 130 years, the RBI Group has combined financial success with socially responsible actions.
The RBI Group understands sustainability to mean responsible corporate activities for a long-term, economically positive result in
consideration of key societal and environmental aspects. This understanding is deeply rooted in Raiffeisen’s fundamental values (see
also chapter G1-1: Corporate culture).
The RBI Group combines financial success with social responsibility by anchoring sustainability as a fixed component of its business
and by practicing sustainability as an integral leadership and management responsibility, in addition to taking key sustainability
aspects into consideration in its business activities.
The RBI Group is therefore committed to aligning the management structures and processes with this attitude. In the three strategic
sustainability areas of responsibility – responsible banker, fair partner, and engaged citizen – which are closely linked to the business
activities, RBI Group endeavors to professionally and effectively apply the values and competences to fostering sustainable
development both in RBI Group and in society.
RBHU Group’s sustainability strategy approach
The strategy and mission of RBHU Group is embedded in the strategy of RBI Group and backed by the technical expertise and
knowledge hub of Raiffeisen Bank International. Sustainability is a fundamental principle for the Bank and a measure of corporate
success. The Bank considers ESG factors within its business strategy. RBHU Group provides several sustainable financial and
investment products, while daily operations are executed with the approach of energy efficiency and environmental consciousness.
Core action areas of our sustainability strategy
The sustainability strategy of the Bank is based on four main pillars, (i) analyses and assessment of our environment, tracking
performance; (ii) risk analysis and management; (ii) the portfolio strategies and business approach introduced for the financing
activities and (iv) target setting and executing.
Strategic analysis
The Bank currently performs two annual comprehensive analysis, the first one is the Climate Horizon Analysis and the second one is
the GAP Analysis.
The climate horizon analysis is an analysis tend to identify relevant climate vulnerabilities and opportunities of the Bank on short
(0-3 years), mid (4-10 years) and long term (10 years <). Vulnerability describes the exposures/potential adverse effects on companies
due to the physical and transition risks, opportunities on the other hands mean the potential to grow within the changing
environment.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
16
Separate non-financial statement
RBHU Group also performs a periodical GAP analysis and action plan to address the Green Recommendations of ECB/NBH. The
purpose of the assessment is to review compliance of RBHU Group with the Green Recommendations based on 4 section (business
model and strategy, risk management, lending, internal governance and other sustainability matters) and present ongoing
processes in order to comply with the recommendations and identify gaps to handle.
Risk analysis and management
Main focus points of risk analysis and management are: (i) define and identify ESG risks; (ii) identification of vulnerable industries; (iii)
portfolio monitoring; (iv) ESG risk and business model assessment in relation to the lending processes; (v) customer risk analysis
through ESG rating and (iv) collateral valuation.
For detailed descriptions in relation to the risk analysis and management functions please see:
· GOV-1: The role of the administrative, management and supervisory bodies
· GOV-5: Risk management and internal controls over sustainability reporting
· IRO-1: Process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities
· ESRS 2 SBM-3: Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model; and
· E1-2: Policies related to climate change mitigation and adaptation.
RBHU Group climate and environmental business strategy
The RBI Group has formulated a Climate & Environment Business Strategy that integrates climate & environment risk into major
strategic processes aiming to:
· make balance sheet Paris Agreement climate target fit
· support customer in their climate and environmental transition; and
· drive sustainable finance transformation based on up to date ESG expertise and governance.
The business model of the RBHU Group is in line with the strategic goals of RBI represented above.
The Bank has initiated portfolio strategies within the lending activities tailored in line with the economic transition, namely (i)
restrictive; (ii) transformative and (iii) supportive approach:
· Supportive: support companies and projects that are “best-in-class” already
· Transformative: (1) transformative: in implementation – support companies and projects on their way to reduced carbon
emission or Net-zero nature impact or in their efforts to provide positive environmental & social impact; (2)
transformative: in planning – support companies and projects to plan and begin their way to reduced carbon emission or
Net-zero nature impact or in their efforts to provide positive environmental and social impact
· Restrictive: dispreferred of companies and projects, also called negative screening. Engagement into lending to such
entities is discouraged by the underwriting policy, unless the partner shows material, measurable and swift commitment
for transition towards the transformative category expectations.
Strategic target setting
RBI Group assesses its environmental footprint, and other material impacts of the RBI Group on the environment and biosphere.
Within these activities the RBI Group evaluates and assesses how it will operate in a carbon neutral economy and consequently plans
its GHG reduction targets. Fundamentally the targets are divided into own operation and financed emission activities and reflecting
the transition strategy of the RBI Group and also the RBHU Group.
As for the financed emission, the Bank intends to reduce its GHG emission, arising out from the financing of non-financial
corporations, by 17.11 % by 2030 compared to the level measured in 2023.
At the RBHU Group level, local Scope 1 and 2 targets have not been defined; thus, RBHU Group generally aligns to the RBI Group-level
target.
For detailed descriptions in relation to the emission numbers and detailed pathway please see:

ESG factors and relations within the business model and segment level
Corporate Business
RBHU Group offers support via various sustainable financing options aligned with the business model and sustainability strategy of
its customers. These sustainable financing options cover a wide range of financial instruments (bonds, project loans, syndicated
loans, etc.) characterized by their linkage to sustainable activities.
RBHU Group’s sustainable finance experts support corporate customers in their transformation by identifying and defining
sustainable transactions. The basis for this assessment of financial products and services includes both the regulatory framework of
the EU and the international market standards such as those of the Loan Market Association and the International Capital Market
Association. RBHU Group supports its customers in verifying the suitability of various projects and activities with regard to EU
Taxonomy compliance and RBI’s internal definitions of green, social or sustainable transactions.
Sustainable financial products can be tailored to the individual customers so that they have a positive impact in terms of ESG
criteria. RBHU Group supports customers in all industries – in critical sectors such as oil and gas, and through to non-critical sectors
such as renewable energy – and in doing so, addresses each individual customer’s respective challenges and opportunities. With all
sustainable financing transactions, RBHU Group’s sustainable finance experts always endeavor to provide corporate and
institutional customers with a clear understanding of market standards and requirements, as well as best practices.
Providing sustainable financing generates added value for our customers and a wide range of activities for society that are suited to
sustainable financing. We describe financing as being sustainable when it has a long-term positive impact on the environment and
climate and/or on societal and social issues, and when it supports the attainment of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
More specifically, the definition of a sustainable transaction is based on the EU Taxonomy Regulation and on RBHU Group’s ESG
Rulebook (basis: RBI’s ESG Rulebook) definition for green and social. The eligibility criteria of the listed frameworks differ in terms of
complexity and precision. Currently, our corporate sustainable finance activities mainly focusing on renewable energy, electrification
and sustainable real estate finance projects.
The Sustainability Bond Framework of RBHU Group connects liability and asset side by allocating funds collected through green
bonds issuance to the sustainable finance activities of large corporate segment. Both asset and liability side gained achievements
during recent years. RBHU Group received the award for being the „Green Bank of the Year 2022” and „Green Bank of the Year 2024”
from the Central Bank of Hungary based on its sustainable finance activities and outstanding amounts within corporate segment,
affirming the efforts made towards the support of transition of the real economy. While in funding side 300 mn EUR Senior Preferred
green MREL eligible bond has been issued to international investors with a demand showing substantial oversubscription in 2024.
For further information about the Sustainability Bond Framework please see: https://www.raiffeisen.hu/web/english/investor-
For detailed information about the corporate segment please see the respective parts of this Sustainability Statement.
Retail Business
RBHU Group provides services to around 450.000 retail and private banking customers, offering a broad product range (e.g. account
packages, payment services, personal loan, mortgage loans and investment products). In Hungary, RBHU Group provides investment
advisory and asset management services to premium and private customers.  When talking about consumers and end-users in RBHU
Group’s business, RBHU Group means private individuals who use RBHU Group’s products and services for personal use, either for
themselves or for others, and not for professional purposes, including private individuals who will potentially become customers of
RBHU Group. RBHU Group has customers of all ages and from all types of socio-economic background. RBHU Group follows a
segment-based approach and covers mass-market retail clients.
RBHU Group aims to further increase new green loan sales to private individuals and small-business customers, and therefore advise
our customers on the possibility of green mortgage loans secured by real estate and are made available exclusively to finance or
refinance, in whole or in part, new and/or existing transactions with a specific use of proceeds as defined by the framework for
Green and Social Loans included in the local Credit Policies.
For detailed information about the retail segment please see E1-4: Targets related to climate change mitigation and adaptation of
this Sustainability Statement.
Significant geographical markets and total revenue
While RBHU Group is a subsidiary of the RBI Group, its main operation covers solely the territory of Hungary, in consequence the
geographical market of RBHU Group is Hungary as whole.

Separate non-financial statement
Raiffeisen Bank is a financial institution that provides services to companies across various sectors in the real economy, with a
particular focus on the energy, real estate, and agriculture sector. In relation to the EU taxonomy, the bank also examines these
sectors due to its exposure.
The total revenue of RBHU Group covering the financial year of 2024 can be found under (3.2) Profit or loss of the consolidated
financial statements.
Definition of value chain
According to ESRS, it is necessary to report information related to an undertaking’s own operations and upstream and downstream
value chain, including its products and services, its business relationships and its supply chain. RBHU Group’s business model is to
provide banking services to corporate and retail customers in Hungary. Although deposit and lending activities are the focus of
activity, RBHU Group also offers leasing, asset management, and investment banking services. RBHU Group has defined its value
chain below.
Description of the upstream value chain
The upstream value chain consists of the financial liabilities that are borrowed as deposits or issued as bonds or equity. These
products are a source of financing for RBHU Group, which is used to fund the activities of customers. In general, this does not lead to
positive or negative sustainability outcomes in the value chain. However, sustainability related funding is also part of the upstream
value chain, which aims to finance specific projects or outcomes (for further information please see in SBM-1 Corporate section). The
funding impact of sustainability matters on RBHU Group’s is taken into account. Money invested by customers in investment and
pensions funds is not considered part of the upstream value chain. The suppliers of goods and services that RBHU Group purchases
in order to carry out operating activities are considered to be a further part of the upstream value chain.
Description of the downstream value chain
The main downstream key value chain consists of the on-balance sheet financial assets, which are lent or leased to customers and
financial investment activities of RBHU Group. These products are a source of financing for customers and investees in their
activities, leading positive or negative sustainability outcomes. Here the key value chain relates to lending to corporate customers,
this value chain has the greatest impact materiality. An additional key sustainability-related value chain relates to lending to retail
customers. Lending to sovereigns, central banks and financial institutions, which is predominantly undertaken for liquidity purposes,
is not considered a key sustainability-related value chain. Nevertheless, where market convention has been established to include
additional information on lending to sovereigns and financial institutions, information is provided.
A second downstream key value chain consists of assets under management in investment. These products are a source of
financing for investees in their activities, leading to positive or negative sustainability outcomes. Here only investment activity where
RBHU Group employees have direct operational control of the investment process is considered to be part of the value chain. This
means third party funds, where there is no direct operational control of the investment process and the possibility to look-through
to the underlying assets is limited, are not considered part of the value chain.
Downstream value chain activity, which RBHU Group does not consider as being material, is not covered. This activity includes:
· Cash and cash equivalents, most of which is held at central banks or in other financial institutions
· Exposure from trading assets and liabilities are not considered due to their short-term nature. However, sustainability risk
for market risk is considered as part of own operations in ESRS E1: Climate change
· Non-consolidated associates are considered for the purposes of Scope 3 Category 15 financed emissions to the extent
that in-house data is available. However, they are not considered for other aspects of the value chain
· Non-consolidated investees are considered for the purposes of Scope 3 Category 15 financed emissions to the extent that
in-house data is available. However, they are not considered for other aspects of the value chain
· Investment property is not included due to the non-core nature of the business. Nevertheless, own-use property and its
impact on climate change is considered as part of the in-house ecology section in ESRS E1: Climate change.
Value chain information is currently provided to the extent that RBHU Group has ready access to the information. In the future RBHU
Group expects to have access to more information as the CSRD develops.

Consideration of stakeholder sngagement outcomes
RBHU Group values the insight and feedback gathered from stakeholder engagement and integrates, these outcomes into its
decision-making processes where feasible. The keyways these outcomes are considered include:
· Incorporating Feedback:  Feedback from stakeholders is considered during the decision-making and operational practices.
This helps ensure alignment with stakeholder expectations and key concerns
· Informing Initiatives:  Outcomes from stakeholder engagements serve as a foundation for various initiatives, including
sustainability efforts, risk management, and policy updates. This helps RBHU Group prioritize goals and identify areas for
improvement
· Documentation and Reporting:  While there is no centralized documentation system for all stakeholder feedback,
significant outcomes and actions taken in response to stakeholder engagements are documented where feasible.
By integrating the outcomes of stakeholder engagements into its processes, RBHU Group ensures that stakeholder interests and
views are considered, supporting the company’s long-term sustainability and success.
Inclusion of stakeholders in due diligence and materiality assessment
Within the assessment of double materiality first version of the documentation was carried out by RBI backed by their external
stakeholders and experts. RBHU Group and other NWUs received this RBI Group level document and assessed and finetuned it based
on local specifics. For the double materiality assessment, internal topic experts (stakeholders) assessed direct impacts, identifying
relevant impacts, risk and opportunities within their areas of expertise. RBHU Group also participates in sectoral discussions in order
to align reporting obligations on national level.
The selection of material topics is guided by the regulatory requirements of the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS).
This approach ensures RBHU Group strategy reflects the expectations of key stakeholders, including supervisory authorities and
supranational organizations.
Effect on the overall ESG strategy
RBHU Group has established a Sustainability Council consisting of the MAN and internal experts, which plays a critical role in
stakeholder dialogue and sustainability management. The Sustainability Council guides RBHU Group’s strategic direction concerning
economic, environmental and social issues, ensuring stakeholder concerns are reflected within the organization.
Next steps
By continuously considering stakeholder feedback, RBHU Group aims to strengthen its stakeholder relationships and ensure that
their interests are adequately considered. This is expected to increase trust and transparency.
In addition to the above regular reviews of internal ESG policies, ensure continuous improvement and alignment with best practices.
SBM-3: Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and
business model
As part of an internationally active banking group, RBHU Group faces specific challenges in its efforts to realize its sustainability
vision. These arise from the economic, social and environmental impacts of RBHU Group’s business activities as well as from the
external conditions within which it operates. RBHU Group works within a global environment that is characterized by numerous
economic, geopolitical and environmental risks. In the sustainability statement, it addresses the sustainability topics that have been
identified within RBHU Group as material, that reflect the expectations of its stakeholders, and that represented the focus of its

engagement and people, including human rights. The sustainability topics elaborated in the sustainability statement are the result
of the double materiality assessment.
In 2024, RBHU Group performed a double materiality assessment based on the principles and requirements formulated in the ESRS.
For an overview of how the assessment was performed, please refer to the chapter IRO-1: Process to identify and assess material
impacts, risks and opportunities. The assessment showed the topics through which RBHU Group has been or is connected to a
material impact the environment or on people (impact materiality) and the topics that now, or may in the future, have a material
financial effect on RBHU Group (financial materiality).
RBHU Group plans to assess, consider and cover materially important ESRS items within the formulation of the annual strategy
update for 2025.

IRO-1: Process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities
In the sustainability statement, RBHU Group addresses the sustainability topics that have been identified within RBHU Group as
material, that reflect the expectations of the stakeholders, and that represented the focus of its engagement in the past year.
The double materiality assessment process is used to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities (IROs) based on
the principle of double materiality, serving as the basis of the entire sustainability statement. This assessment ensures that the
sustainability statement covers all topics and sub-topics with the greatest current or potential positive and negative impacts
related to RBHU Group’s business activities, products, and services. This includes impacts directly attributable to RBHU Group within
its operations, as well as those which it contributes through business relationship with other entities. Additionally, the risk and
opportunities relevant to RBHU Group in connection with these matters, or those that arise from its business activities or
relationships, are also presented.
The first double materiality assessment in accordance with ESRS was carried out and was conducted with the help of workshops
and internal discussions in the period from December 2023 to November 2024. The double materiality assessment process was
performed for own operations and the value chain. The process was used to separate the effects RBHU Group has through its own
operations from the effects it has through its value chain.
Within the assessment of double materiality first version of the documentation was carried out by RBI backed by their external
stakeholders and experts. RBHU Group and other NWUs received this RBI Group level document and assessed and fine-tuned it based
on local specifics. For the double materiality assessment, internal topic experts (stakeholders) assessed direct impacts, identifying
relevant impacts, risk and opportunities within their areas of expertise. RBHU Group also participates in sectoral discussions in order
to align reporting obligations on national level.
Identification of ESRS touchpoints
Own operations
The initial assessment for own operations was based on the RBI Group documentation with topics previously assessed and identified
by RBI and external experts. This included topics and the relevant sub-topics, as well sub-sub-topics. In individual workshops and
discussions, all internal stakeholders were familiarized with ESRS and received an introduction to the double materiality assessment.
The goal was to enable the experts to review the RBI Group documentation and to adapt them to their views, based on their expert
opinion. The RBI Group documentation was presented, reviewed, and adapted by the internal stakeholders of RBHU Group. The RBI
Group documentation was fine-tuned then by local specifics with a reasoning for each deviation.
The internal stakeholders with ESG expertise from various departments are responsible for the topics mentioned below and
conducted the materiality analysis:
· Accounting Department
· Compliance Department
· Security Department
· Human Resource Department
· In-house Ecology/Facility Management
· Legal Department
· Marketing Department
· Procurement/Supply Chain Management.
The main responsibility for the double materiality assessment lay with the CSRD implementation project teams, which is a
cooperation of finance and sustainability experts.
Assessment method
For actual negative and positive impacts, materiality was based on the severity of the impact, while for potential impacts it was
based on the severity and likelihood of the impact. For factors such as scale, scope and irremediability were used for the severity of
the impact and a four-step scale was used, from one (very low) to four (high). The likelihood of occurrence of a sustainable topic was
assessed for risks, opportunities, and potential impact using a four-step scale, from one (very unlikely) to four (likely). The same
likelihood scale was used for the probability of occurrence for financial materiality and impact materiality. For potential impacts on
human rights, the assessment was conducted in the same manner as for actual impacts, in accordance with ESRS 1 paragraph 48.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
26
Separate non-financial statement
The likelihood was overridden by the potential impact on human rights, and if human rights were relevant to the topic, they were
automatically considered likely for calculation purposes.
For the financial risks and opportunities assessment, a sustainability matter is considered material from a financial perspective if it
triggers or is expected to trigger significant financial effects on the undertaking. This determination used factors such as the
continuation of resource use, dependence on relationships, and other elements that influence the future value of the company. For
risks and opportunities deemed relevant to RBHU Group, the time horizon for potential occurrences was defined before analyzing
how these risks and opportunities could impact the factors used. Additionally, the likelihood was assessed.
An overall threshold of 0.66 was set for the direct impact materiality and direct financial materiality (risk and opportunities), derived
from the assessment of the above criteria. If the impact materiality and/or financial materiality of an ESRS topic exceeded this
threshold, it was considered material for RBHU Group and was included in the consolidated non-financial statement for 2024.
During the workshops and discussions, the identified ESRS topics were subsequently evaluated for their positive and negative
effects, and for each impact, additionally assessed for potential and actual impacts. Actual impacts are those that have already
occurred, while potential impacts are those that could occur in the future, initially, the origin of the impact (whether directly or
indirectly caused by RBHU Group), the location (where the expected impact could occur), and the time horizon in which the impacts
are likely to occur were assessed. Subsequently, a quantitative evaluation was conducted to determine the extent.
Value chain
Impact materiality assessment
The portfolio’s impact materiality assessment was conducted using the United Nations Environment Programme – Finance Initiative
(UNEP FI) Impact Analysis Tool. This tool, developed in collaboration with signatories of the Principles for Responsible Banking (PRB)
and UNEP FI member banks, provides a framework for assessing the impacts associated with financial portfolios. By using this
methodology, RBI evaluates the indirect impacts of its portfolio on sustainability priorities aligned with the European Sustainability
Reporting Standards (ESRS).
For the analysis, RBHU Group’s portfolio as of 31 December 2023 was segmented by business line – non retail and retail – and
described in terms of industry sectors (NACE), country of operation, exposure at default (EAD), and booking country.
To assess how these portfolio elements impact sustainability topics, UNEP FI mapping is used to connect sector and geographic
data to ESRS sub-topics. The sector-impact map highlights how industries influence specific impact areas – positively and
negatively, directly or indirectly – and these impact areas are then mapped to ESRS sub-topics to connect portfolio impacts to ESRS
standards. Adding country-specific data gives the analysis a geographic layer, helping to prioritize sustainability topics based on
regional importance. While the ESRS standards require reflection on both actual and potential impacts, which could align with UNEP
FI’s direct and indirect impacts, RBHU Group’s analysis focuses solely on direct impacts. This decision provides a clearer view of the
immediate effects of the portfolio, while the overall analysis remains within the ESRS indirect realm from RBHU Group’s perspective.
The impact calculation applies three measures, scale, scope and irremediability. Scale quantifies the monetary exposure (EAD) of
sectors that directly affect ESRS sub-topics through UNEP FI impact areas. Scope adjusts scale by factoring in geographic relevance,
reflecting country-specific needs that influence the priority of each topic. Irremediability then provides a qualitative assessment of
the reversibility or permanence of these impacts, with higher scores indicating sectors or regions where impacts are challenging to
mitigate.
These three measures – scale, scope and irremediability – combine to create an overall impact score for each ESRS sub-topic. This
score serves as the basis for the double materiality analysis, following ESRS guidelines. A materiality threshold of two-thirds (66.7 per
cent) is applied to determine which ESRS topics are considered material and should be prioritized. The quantitative score can also be
adjusted using qualitative inputs such as stakeholder feedback or contextual insights, ensuring a more holistic assessment of the
portfolio’s indirect impacts.
Financial materiality assessment
According to ESRS, it is necessary to report information related to an undertaking’s own operations and its upstream and
downstream value chain, including its products and services, its business relationships, and its supply chain. The financial materiality
of risk is assessed based on combination of the likelihood of occurrence and the potential magnitude of the financial effects. For the
likelihood of occurrence, factors such as current and future legislation as well as reputational considerations are considered. For the
purpose of the CSRD, RBHU Group uses the income dependency of RBHU Group’s downstream value chain to assess the magnitude of
the financial materiality of the topical standards (and sub-topics).
When the income dependency of a topical standard is greater than 10 per cent and it is likely there will be an impact, this provides
confirmation of financial materiality. The income dependency ratio is defined as income from high-impact lending/investing divided
by operating income and add-back interest expense and fee expense.
The income from high-impact lending/investing currently consists of the following positions:
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
Separate non-financial statement
27
· Interest income from non-financial corporations
· Interest income from retail mortgage loans
· Fee and commission income from non-financial corporations
· Fee and commission income from investment funds.
Financial materiality in the value chain is given when income from topical sectors is greater than 10 perc cent and it is likely that
there will an impact. Currently, there is no perceived financial materiality in the value chain of RBHU Group.
Validation of double materiality assessment
The model covering direct double materiality perspective is covered by the relevant guidance of EFRAG, and in line with the
requirements and recommendation of the aforementioned guideline. The indirect double materiality models are based on
international standards and good practiced used by the sector. Several discussions and workshops were held between RBI and other
NWUs (including RBHU Group) in relation to the methodology and results of double materiality assessment. In addition to the above,
the Bank discussed the approach, the methodology and results with the internal experts and stakeholders.
The process and results of the double materiality assessment were presented and recognized by the Management on 24th of March
2025. The summary of the outcome of the double materiality assessment is presented in the chapter SBM-3: Material impacts, risks
and opportunities and their interaction with the strategy and business model.
Topic-specific disclosure requirements

Own operations
Impact materiality assessment
In terms of RBHU Group’s own operations, the double materiality principle entails understanding and taking into account the impact
of a company’s own activities on the environment and the implications of environmental issues for the respective company.
At RBHU Group, the key materiality indicator is the volume of absolute greenhouse gas emissions (scope 1-3) that are caused by
various activities, such as energy consumption and business trips. These emissions have an adverse impact on the climate and are
therefore considered, even though the main focus rests on RBHU Group’s financed emissions due to their much larger weight. As the
changes in the world’s climate have far-reaching consequences, which extend beyond national borders, there is no regional
limitation of effects in the context of the inside-out approach. Although the impact of greenhouse gas emissions on the climate is
entirely negative, aspects such as the use of renewable energy and the promotion of energy efficiency can mitigate the adverse
effects.
Financial materiality assessment
The risks of operational activities are closely related to the environmental concerns set out to be managed in the CSRD. The biggest
risk to the economy, society and the environment is the unwillingness of companies to counteract climate change. This leads to
increased global warming with the known negative impacts. In addition to external environmental risk, RBHU Group and its operating
locations are subject to physical, regulatory and reputational risks (outside-in perspective). In the area of physical risks, for example,
natural disasters could result in damage to property. These risks are minimized by selecting the right locations and ensuring suitable
property insurance (adaptation strategy).
They are managed on the cost side by continuously observing the internal and external environment and by consulting specialists in
controlling the respective measures. Risks are classified as material when they endanger the achievement of RBHU Group’s medium
to long-term climate targets – particularly with regard to energy consumption – or when stakeholders classify them as material for
RBHU Group. The measures set out are currently heavily focused on the area of energy, with examples including targeted increases
in energy efficiency and structural alterations to building shells.
The physical risks of climate change, such as greater and more frequent temperature fluctuations, often result in higher operating
costs, e.g. due to the increased need for cooling as the number of days with extreme heat increases. Risk management is based on a
combined bottom-up and top-down approach in which all employees also pay a significant role in risk minimization in their
respective working area.
RBHU Group is contributing to meeting the goals of the UN climate change conference in Paris (Conference of the Parties 21) by
working to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, as well as promoting the renewable energy sector of the economy.

Separate non-financial statement
Consistent steering through KPIs in areas such as business travel and energy consumption represents a particular opportunity for
RBHU Group with regards to the environmental impact of its own operations. Furthermore, reputational risks are minimized and
resilience in the face of the consequences of climate change is increased. New collaborations in research and development and
investment in energy efficiency measures can also play a role in promoting the transformation to a sustainable economy.
Value chain
Assessment of the materiality of climate and environment-related risk
To complement the impact analysis performed using the UNEP FI Portfolio Impact Analysis Tool (see chapter Impact materiality
assessment and in line with the ECB Guide on climate-related and environmental risks (expectations 7.2 and 7.31), an extended
annual risk assessment for climate and environmental risk drivers has been implemented within RBI’s risk framework. While the UNEP
FI portfolio impact analysis also considers the inside-out perspective, the materiality assessment described below focuses on the
outside-in view, i.e., how the climate and environmental risks affect RBHU Group’s risk profile. The inside-out view, on the other hand,
would additionally address how RBI’s activities affect the outside world (including the financed emission calculation, as well as how
science-based targets measure and mitigate the inside-out impact).
The additional climate and environmental risk assessment process has been established to identify the severity of environmental
risk from applicable transmission channels within the current portfolio and over different time horizons. This multiple dimensional
approach considers:
· Different individual climate and environmental risk drivers (physical risk, transition risk, other environmental risks);
· The impact of each climate and environmental risk driver through risk-dependent transmission channels, assessed for
each risk type (credit, market, operational and liquidity risk);
· The impact under different transition risk scenarios (orderly – specifically Net Zero 2050).
Individual climate and environmental risk drivers
Transition risk
With transition risk being defined as the risks related to the process of adjustment towards a low-carbon economy, the transition
risk drivers represent climate-related changes that could generate, increase or reduce transition risks. They include changes in public
sector (generally government) policies, legislation and regulation, changes in technology, and changes in market and customer
sentiment, each of which has the potential to generate, accelerate, slow or disrupt the transition towards a low-carbon economy.
Looking one step further, the transmission channels are the causal chains that explain how climate risk drivers give rise to financial
risks that impact banks directly or indirectly through their counterparties, the assets they hold, and the economy in which they
operate.
The Bank has identified transmission channels in line with the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) paper on climate-
related risk drivers and their transmission channels.
Credit risk
Credit risk increases if climate risk drivers reduce borrowers’ ability to repay and service debt (income effect) or banks’ ability to fully
recover the value of a loan in the event of default (wealth effect). For example, in the non-retail portfolio, macroeconomic and
climate-related risk factors (e.g. carbon tax, emission trading system (ETS) expenses) are used to make sector-specific projections on
production and operating costs which are distributed to the single borrower’s financial figures (e.g. operating revenues, operating
costs such as costs of goods sold and labor costs, additional costs relating to carbon tax, costs for green transitions, etc.). Finally,
the projected financial positions are used to simulate the projection of the probability of default in RBI’s rating models for a
materiality assessment, under the different transition scenarios described above.
Market risk
Climate and environmental risk drivers may have a significant impact on the value of financial assets. Transition-related changes in
official sector policy, technological advances and investor sentiment can alter or reveal new information about future economic
conditions or the value of real or financial assets, resulting in downward price shocks and an increase in market volatility in traded
assets. For instance, the transition to a low-carbon economy may impact commodity markets, especially fossil fuels which are prone
to transition risks. Transition risk could also lead to a breakdown in correlations between assets, reducing the effectiveness of
hedges and challenging banks’ abilities to actively manage their risks.
The impact of transition risk on market risk is assessed using a centrally-developed, RBI Group methodology. This covers both
corporate and sovereign issuers, according to which risk levels are assigned to positions – based on the NACE code/industry and risk
country of the issuer. Corporate exposures are linked to NACE codes/industries and risk levels are assigned based on the industry
share of GHG emissions in the risk country’s total GHG emissions. Sovereigns are linked to countries and risk levels are based on

several factors: the industry’s GHG emissions, gross value added, wages and salaries, social security costs, environmental taxes, and
operational surplus and mixed income (net). The materiality on market risk is assessed based on the total loss in relation to common
equity tier 1 (CET1).
Liquidity risk
From a liquidity risk perspective, climate change transition risk can affect inflows from customers’ loan repayments (due to lower
creditworthiness) and the value of securities in the liquidity buffer. Liabilities and retail loans are not deemed vulnerable to transition
risk. Meanwhile, if it is assumed that the transition risk is spread over a period of more than three months (i.e., a relatively gradual
change in the legislative environment), the effect on liquidity risk is deemed negligible as it is expected that the balance sheet of the
Bank will gradually adapt to the change. If the risk realization period is less than three months, the effect will be more palpable and
is approached using the same assumptions as for market risk in terms of the devaluation of securities in the liquidity buffer, and
credit risk, in terms of decreased inflows from loans due to a higher default rate. The materiality is assessed on the basis of the
liquidity buffer devaluations’ relative impact on liquidity surplus estimated by internal stress test model (time to wall).
Operational risk
Corporates and banks may be exposed to increasing legal and regulatory compliance risk, as well as litigation and liability costs
associated with climate-sensitive investments and businesses. Furthermore, climate-related lawsuits could target corporations as
well as banks for past environmental conduct, whilst seeking to direct future conduct. The impact of this transmission channel has
been assessed by the operational risk framework that is in place, as current expected losses are measured by analysing historical
data as well as identifying trends and forward-looking approaches. Operational risk is assessed on the loss in relation to the total
revenue of the Bank.
Physical risk
Physical risk drivers are changes in both weather and climate. They are expected to increase over a longer time horizon if the
transition to a sustainable, net-zero economy is not successful (e.g. the hot-house world which is a high emission scenario). Physical
risks can be classified as acute risks, which are related to extreme weather events, or chronic risks associated with gradual shifts in
climate:
· Acute physical risks are generally considered to consist of: floods, wildfires and storms, including hurricanes, cyclones and
typhoons, as well as extreme precipitation
· Chronic physical risks include rising sea levels, rising average temperatures, and water stress. Extended periods of
increased temperatures may also lead to further chronic climate events, such as desertification.
Similarly, extended periods of increased average temperatures could impact the ecosystem, especially agriculture. The way in which
physical risks impact economies will vary depending on geographical location as different regions exhibit distinct climate patterns
and levels of development. Some regions are expected to be more severely affected than others because they are more exposed
and more vulnerable to specific types of weather disasters.
All these hazards are assessed via risk-specific transmission channels over a short, medium and long-term horizon (see section time
horizons) under the orderly and hot-house world scenario based on a physical risk map containing information on hazard-specific
vulnerability and impact for each relevant geolocation.
Credit risk
Physical risk drivers mainly impact banks’ credit risk through their counterparties. The physical capital (housing, inventory, property,
equipment or infrastructure) of households, corporates and sovereigns can be damaged or destroyed by physical hazards. This
damage reduces the value of assets and, consequently, a counterparty’s wealth. Physical risk drivers can also negatively impact the
cash flows of the affected entities as damaged physical capital, such as impaired rental properties and factories, will generate less
income. The damage may be caused by acute physical risks and chronic physical risks, such as rising sea levels. The materiality of
this transmission channel is assessed by mapping portfolio exposure to a physical risk map under different transition scenarios
(orderly, disorderly, hot house), while accounting for coping capacity at the country level (INFORM risk model).
Market risk
Physical risk may be sudden and severe, and have knock-on effects across regions and sectors through interconnected
socioeconomic and financial systems. Physical risks emerging from climate change can cause market price fluctuations, such as
more frequent and severe extreme weather events causing losses in equity prices due to the destruction of firms’ assets or capacity
to produce. Uncertainty about the timing, intensity and location of future severe weather events and other natural disasters may
lead to higher volatility on the financial markets. Overall, the presence of physical risk may lead to a classical risk factor (e.g. an
equity price or an exchange rate) being more volatile than historically observed, or being subject to severe jumps, diminishing the
value of the financial instrument being traded. This transmission channel is assessed by mapping market risk exposure to a physical

risk map (again under different transition scenarios (orderly, disorderly, hot house), while considering historical losses and the impact
on GDP.
Liquidity risk
With respect to the effect of physical climate risk on liquidity risk, the logic is similar to that applied to transition risk. If the risk event
is spread over a significant period of time or does not have an immediate effect, this risk has a negligible impact on liquidity risk. If
acute climate physical risks materialize, the following effects are possible:
· Devaluation of securities in the liquidity buffer (in line with the market risk assessment)
· Decrease in inflows from loans due to a higher default rate and higher rollover rate, combined with higher withdrawals of
loans from credit lines.
Customers, including those in the retail segment, use loans to cover damages caused by the event. Outflows from customers’
liabilities arise due to the need to cover damage caused by the event. This effect is not straightforward, as if a bank has a
significant market share and a diverse customer base, it is most likely that a customer who has suffered from the event would have
to pay other customers (e.g. retail customers with damaged houses will pay for construction goods). In addition, the effect can be
temporary in this case, as if the accounts are mainly in a customer’s portfolio, inflows from insurance coverage will be reflected in
the liabilities relatively soon after the potential decrease.
The materiality of this transmission channel has been evaluated by analysing the effect on the liquidity buffer under different
interest and credit spread shocks under different transition scenarios, derived from the region-dependent physical risk score.
Operational risk
Physical hazards can affect banks directly as operational risks. For instance, if physical hazards disrupt transportation facilities and
telecommunications infrastructure, banks’ operational ability may be reduced. The impact of this transmission channel was
assessed by extending the physical risk drivers to the operational risk assessment and scenario. In this scenario, business continuity
management costs are measured using scenario methodology, i.e., it is assumed that the physical risk may cause potential business
continuity management events (critical site not available and IT availability & continuity). The locations for both the primary head
office and data centers were evaluated by the external data provider in terms of exposure to the climate and environmental risk
drivers mentioned. The results of the scenario analysis did not reveal any severe impacts from those specific risk drivers.
Results of the climate related risk assessment
In the materiality assessment 2024, with the cut-off date of 30 June 2024 and using the methodology outlined above, all transitional
and physical risks to the market, liquidity, operational and credit risk indicators were assessed at a low level for RBHU Group.

The thresholds for the materiality analysis are determined individually by risk type. For credit risk, the effect of transition risk is
derived from the probability of default of customers in different transition scenarios compared to actual values. For physical risk, the
threshold is set individually for each possible event (e.g. flood, wildfire), and the final effect represents a combination of the event's
probability and the resilience of a region. For market risk, the potential loss is measured in relation to total capital. For operational
risk, the estimated loss in both transition and physical risk scenarios is compared against a threshold in accordance with RBI's
internal operational risk framework.
For liquidity risk assessment, all scenarios and risk drivers demonstrated low materiality. Given that Climate and Environmental (C&E)
risks have low materiality and that the main transition channels for liquidity risk are market and credit risks, only the materiality
assessment is currently part of the ILAAP. Nonetheless, the Group is considering the integration of a stress scenario for C&E risks
within the scope of liquidity risk.
To further reflect the risk related to income dependency (in parallel to the impact on risk parameters), the ICAAP risk assessment
was extended with risk indicators related to income from industries with high contribution to climate change. Initial results show
contribution to the Bank’s income from relevant industries as (low) not material (below ten per cent).

Environmental information
Regulatory disclosure requirement in accordance with Article 8 of the EU
Taxonomy Regulation
The EU Taxonomy Regulation sets out an EU-wide framework that allows investors and undertakings to determine whether
certain economic activities are environmentally sustainable. Article 8 of the EU Taxonomy Regulation requires undertakings
covered by the Directive (EU) 2022/2464 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 December 2022 amending
Regulation (EU) No 537/2014, Directive 2004/109/EC, Directive 2006/43/EC and Directive 2013/34/EU, as regards corporate
sustainability reporting (CSRD) to publish information on how and to what extent their economic activities qualify as
environmentally sustainable under the EU Taxonomy Regulation. RBHU Group is therefore required to disclose the taxonomy
eligibility and taxonomy alignment of its economic activities for 2024.
The Green Asset Ratio (GAR) serves as a benchmark and reporting metric for taxonomy alignment. It describes the share of
RBHU Group’s green taxonomy-aligned business relative to the covered assets. However, the GARs disclosed by the Bank for
2024 is mostly based on retail exposure, as well as general-purpose exposure to non-financial undertakings which were subject
to the Directive 2014/95/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 October 2014 amending Directive 2013/34/EU
as regards disclosure of non-financial and diversity information by certain large undertakings and groups the Non-Financial
Reporting Directive (NFRD; now CSRD). Loans to smaller companies and non-EU businesses, for instance, are not included the
2024 disclosure, which can distort the picture enormously depending on a banking group’s key activities. Furthermore, the GAR
does not reflect the fact that RBHU Group focused on the economic ESG transformation of its customers. In particular, RBHU
Group supported undertakings that are already on the path to sustainability but whose transactions were not yet completely
green according to the definitions of the EU Taxonomy Regulation.
The Bank’s engagement with clients on the EU Taxonomy involves educating them about the classification system for
sustainable activities that are relevant for the sector, and its importance in aligning investments with the EU's environmental
goals from the perspective of a financial institution. The ‘ESG experts’ support clients, especially but not restricted to clients in
the real estate and electric utilities sectors, by providing guidance on how their activities can meet the taxonomy criteria,
thereby facilitating access to sustainable finance and enhancing transparency.
I. Mandatory disclosure
RBHU Group disclosed all key performance indicators (KPIs) in accordance with the Disclosures Delegated Act (Commission
Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178 of 6 July 2021). This regulation supplements Regulation (EU) 2020/852 of the European
Parliament and of the Council by specifying the content and presentation of information to be disclosed by undertakings
subject to Articles 19a or 29a of Directive 2013/34/EU concerning environmentally sustainable economic activities and
specifying the methodology to comply with that disclosure obligation. For additional information and improved clarity, the
disclosure of these quantitative KPIs was supplemented by qualitative information pursuant to Annex XI of the Disclosures
Delegated Act. For 2024, the Bank disclosed information on taxonomy eligibility and alignment with regard to the first two
environmental objectives – climate change mitigation and climate change adaptation. Information available for the Bank on
taxonomy for the other four environmental objectives is still very limited.
An overview of the relevant key figures and templates that are reported in accordance with Article 8 of the EU Taxonomy
Regulation and the supplementary Disclosure Delegated Act for 2024 is available in the chapter “Overview of relevant KPIs and
templates”. The figures for the main KPI GAR stock and the additional KPI GAR flow are shown below.

RBHU Group’s approach for determining Taxonomy-eligible and Taxonomy-aligned economic
activities, assets and economic sectors (Template 0-2)
RBHU Group’s banking book was used to determine its taxonomy-eligible and taxonomy-aligned economic activities. Total
covered assets were identified as per the requirements of the full GAR disclosure. Exposures towards central banks,
supranational institutions, the central government, and assets held for trading were excluded. The remaining covered assets
formed the denominator in the formula for calculating the GAR.
All the taxonomy-eligible and taxonomy-aligned economic activities were included in the numerator for calculating the GAR.
They were defined as covered assets additionally belonging to one of the following categories:
· Taxonomy-eligible and taxonomy-aligned economic activities of CSRD undertakings
In accordance with Article 8 of the EU Taxonomy Regulation, the disclosure was based on the obligation to publish
non-financial information pursuant to Articles 19a and 29a of Directive 2013/34/EU of the European Parliament and
of the Council of 26 June 2013 on the annual financial statements, consolidated financial statements and related
reports of certain types of undertakings, amending Directive 2006/43/EC of the European Parliament and of the
Council and repealing Council Directives 78/660/EEC and 83/349/EEC. While for 2023, these articles were set out in
the NFRD, the disclosure for 2024 was based on the CSRD, which replaced the respective Articles 19a and 29a.
· Taxonomy-eligible and taxonomy-aligned economic activities in retail banking
· Taxonomy-eligible and taxonomy-aligned economic activities related to local and regional government financing
· Real estate collaterals obtained by taking possession in exchange for the cancellation of debt and held for sale.
In addition, derivatives (not held for trading), on-demand interbank loans, cash and cash-related assets and other assets (e.g.
goodwill, commodities) were also excluded from the numerator, but were included in the calculation of the denominator for
the Green Asset Ratio. Furthermore, no exposures to non-EU or to small and medium-sized enterprises were taken into
consideration.
If the purpose was known at transaction level and was consistent with the defined activities of the EU Taxonomy Regulation or
the supplementary delegated regulation – for example, a property loan (acquisition and ownership of a building) – RBHU Group
took into account exposures to the extent that taxonomy eligibility and taxonomy alignment could be demonstrated for the
underlying transaction. In cases where a transaction qualified for more than one environmental objective, RBHU Group
assigned the transaction, or an appropriate portion of it, to the most relevant objective to prevent double counting. The
decision on which environmental goal is considered the most relevant is made based on expert opinion during the assessment
and should reflect the purpose of the transaction.
For transactions conducted for general purposes – for example, for granting a working capital facility – RBHU Group took into
account the relevant taxonomy KPIs for taxonomy eligibility and taxonomy alignment that were provided or disclosed by the
counterparties.
The relevant taxonomy KPIs for general-purpose transactions, including investment (CapEx) and turnover KPIs for non-financial
counterparties, as well as taxonomy specific KPIs for financial counterparties, were gathered through an internal data
collection project and supplemented by an external data provider.
In the disclosure for 2024, it was possible to include KPIs for taxonomy alignment for the first two environmental objectives of
financial counterparties for the first time. These were published in 2024 (for the 2023 financial year). Regarding taxonomy
eligibility, both financial and non-financial counterparties published KPIs for the four new environmental objectives for the first
time in 2024 (for the 2023 financial year). Non-financial undertakings will be required to publish KPIs for taxonomy alignment
for these four new environmental objectives in 2025 (for the 2024 financial year), while financial undertakings will be required
to do so by 2026 (for the 2025 financial year).
The share of RBHU Group’s exposures to non-CSRD undertakings for 2024 was material. The gradual implementation of the
CSRD is expected to improve the KPIs, as it will also significantly increase the number of enterprises to be considered.
As structured data availability remains limited, in particular regarding the evidence required to assess use-of-proceeds
transactions, and given the limitations described above, RBHU Group’s relevant portfolio could not be considered in full for the
GAR assessment. However, RBHU Group along with RBI is consistently working on improving the data situation. Furthermore, it
is expected that the share of taxonomy-eligible and taxonomy-aligned exposures will change accordingly and increase in the
future as more information is likely to be disclosed by customers.

The allocation of NACE codes, as disclosed in template 2 for the GAR sector information, is done based on the main business of
the counterparty which is identified via information from local public registries or based on data from an external data
provider.
This chart refers to the disclosure of the taxonomy-eligible and taxonomy-aligned economic activities on CapEx-based indicators. The percentage figures in the chart
above refer to the share of the respective position in relation to RBHU Group’s total assets. For the calculation of the taxonomy-aligned value (yellow), i.e. the Green Asset
Ratio, the number in the qualitative chart refers to covered assets (denominator), not total assets.
Exposures to Taxonomy-aligned economic activities/covered assets (GAR (stock)) (Template 3)
The RBHU Group’s (Raiffeisen Bank Hungary and its affiliates) assets with exposures to taxonomy-aligned economic activities
amounted to 12,160.83 million HUF and are used int the calculation of the GAR (CapEx). In accordance with the instructions set
out in Annex V of the Delegated Regulation, the exposures to be included in the numerator encompass banking book loans and
advances to CSRD-relevant clients, households (limited to loans collateralized by residential real estate and loans granted for
home renovation purposes), and loans and advances to local governments.
All retail exposures relevant to the EU Taxonomy were analyzed under the relevant economic activities and environmental
objectives in accordance with the Disclosures Delegated Act and included in the CapEx as well as in the turnover GAR. With
regard to compliance with minimum social safeguards (MS), the interpretation of the Platform on Sustainable Finance as set
out in the Final Report on Minimum Safeguards (available at sustainable-finance-platform-finance-report) was followed, which
does not cover the application of the MS criteria for retail exposures. The total amount of taxonomy-aligned economic
activities in the retail sector amounted to 2,738.8 million HUF out of a total of 12,160.83 million HUF. The GAR (CapEx) amounted
to 0.40 per cent, of which 0.09 percentage points corresponded to the contribution of taxonomy-aligned economic activities in
the retail sector.
RBHU Group has analysed retail exposures in detail, particularly house purchase loans. Besides identifying thresholds for Nearly
Zero Energy Buildings (NZEB), analyses identifying the top 15 per cent of the national building stock in terms of Primary Energy
Demand (PED) for economic activity 7.7 (acquisition and ownership of buildings) were included in the calculation, where such
analyses were based on transparent real data in line with the relevant FAQs. It was not possible to collect the necessary
information from retail customers regarding building renovation loans as well as car loans given the detailed and high
demands. Such financing was therefore still generally recognized as taxonomy non-aligned.
The physical risk assessment for the retail segment was performed with the help of an external provider. A physical risk
assessment, including a vulnerability analysis, was conducted for the relevant financed properties both within and outside the
EU in accordance with Appendix A of Annex I of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2139 of 4 June 2021 supplementing
Regulation (EU) 2020/852 of the European Parliament and of the Council by establishing the technical screening criteria for
determining the conditions under which an economic activity qualifies as contributing substantially to climate change
mitigation or climate change adaptation, and for determining whether that economic activity causes no significant harm to
any of the other environmental objectives. The physical risk assessment considered acute and chronic risks for the relevant
hazards as set out in that Appendix and used an Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) RCP 8.5 scenario. The
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024

Separate non-financial statement
assessment was not passed if the seriousness of a threat was considered very high and no corresponding risk mitigation
measures were taken.
By reference to internally available data, RBHU Group’s CSRD client base was determined according to the following criteria:
· The country in which the counterparty is registered must be an EU member state
· The business partner’s total assets (on a consolidated basis) must be more than or equal to € 25 million or its total
revenue (turnover) must be more than or equal to € 50 million. For insurance and reinsurance undertakings, the gross
premiums written were used instead of revenue, while the gross operating result was used for the other financial
institutions
· The relevant thresholds as set out in Directive 2013/34/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June
2013 on the annual financial statements, consolidated financial statements and related reports of certain types of
undertakings, amending Directive 2006/43/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Council
Directives 78/660/EEC and 83/349/EEC (the Accounting Directive) were updated by the Commission Delegated
Directive (EU) 2023/2775 of 17 October 2023 amending Directive 2013/34/EU of the European Parliament and of the
Council as regards the adjustments of the size criteria for micro, small, medium-sized and large undertakings or
groups
· The customer was either a capital market-oriented company, a credit institution or an insurance undertaking
· The customer had more than 500 employees on an average basis (on a consolidated basis).
RBHU Group also considered subsidiaries that were fully consolidated under CSRD customers and did not publish/provide
taxonomy KPIs on a stand-alone basis in a sustainability statement.
The disclosure of taxonomy-eligible and taxonomy-aligned exposures must be based on actual information provided by the
financial or non-financial undertaking. RBHU Group, along with RBI collected such data as part of the data collection project. In
addition, third-party data providers were used to obtain information for the assessment of taxonomy-eligible and taxonomy-
aligned economic activities.
Exposures to Taxonomy-aligned economic activities/covered assets (GAR (flow)) (Template 4)
The GAR KPI flow was calculated in line with the GAR KPI stock. However, unlike GAR KPI stock, it only considered those positions
that were newly concluded in the 2024 financial year.
Off-balance-sheet exposures to Taxonomy-aligned economic activities/covered assets (Template 5)
RBHU Group analysed its off-balance sheet exposure, both with purpose known and general purpose with regard to taxonomy
alignment for the first two environmental objectives – climate change mitigation and climate change adaptation – and the
taxonomy eligibility of the four new environmental objectives. For the disclosure of off-balance-sheet exposures, a distinction
was made between financial guarantees and assets under management.
The methodology for calculating the KPI for financial guarantees corresponded to the methodology laid down for loans and
advances, and for bonds. However, it was applied to the underlying transaction of the financial guarantees. If RBHU Group had
no data on the specific purpose of the underlying transaction, the counterparties‘ KPIs were used. For the earmarked
exposures, the counterparties‘ taxonomy data were collected internally as part of the data collection project and by an
external data provider.
The KPI for assets under management was calculated in line with the methodology determined for asset managers. The
numerator comprised the weighted average value of the investments in the taxonomy-aligned economic activities of the
enterprises in which investments were made. Reference was made here to the information on the taxonomy eligibility and
taxonomy alignment of the respective counterparties (financial and non-financial CSRD undertakings) and the corresponding
KPIs were used. For the earmarked exposures, data was also collected internally as part of the data collection project and by
an external data provider. RBHU Group is committed to continuously improving its own processes and the topic of ESG data
availability and quality as part of a constructive dialog with the relevant stakeholders.
Exposures to Taxonomy-eligible and Taxonomy-aligned economic activities/covered assets for
nuclear and gas economic activities (Templates in accordance with Annex XII of the Disclosures
Delegated Act)
The EU Taxonomy includes six economic activities in the nuclear and gas sector. Companies operating in these sectors that are
subject to taxonomy disclosures are therefore also required to publish EU Taxonomy data on taxonomy eligibility and
taxonomy alignment for their relevant nuclear and gas activities.

RBHU Group’s sustainability concept in the nuclear and gas sector is detailed in the RBI Group’s ESG framework (business policy
on nuclear energy and business policy on oil & gas). Our parent company takes a restrictive approach towards the nuclear
sector in accordance with its Code of Conduct. RBI implemented this restrictive approach for the following entities and their
relevant suppliers in particular: nuclear power plants (NPPs), companies mining, processing and trading with nuclear fuel, or
companies managing nuclear waste (storage of spent fuel derived from NPPs).
The above-mentioned policy takes into consideration that nuclear power plants are usually operated by electricity companies
or holdings. As a consequence, thereof, RBHU Group seeks to continue its cooperation with these electricity companies or
holdings, albeit with strict segregation from nuclear power plants and connected activities (i.e. any financing to electricity
providers that process energy from nuclear sources is only allowed if the purpose of the financing is not used for or related to
nuclear power plants).
Accordingly, any resultant exposure only stemmed from taxonomy KPIs for the nuclear sector as published by the companies in
question. In addition, RBI has implemented a sector-specific group policy for the gas sector, in which it addresses the handling
of oil and gas economic activities.
In 2024 RBHU Group had no taxonomy-eligible or taxonomy-aligned exposures earmarked in the gas sector. Accordingly, only
the taxonomy KPIs published by the companies were used for the gas sector. KPIs for the nuclear and gas sectors were
collected internally as part of the data collection project and supplemented by an external data provider. For the specific
nuclear and gas activities of the relevant counterparties, all revenue-based and investment-based taxonomy KPIs were
included regarding their taxonomy eligibility and taxonomy alignment. For 2024, this also involved the respective KPIs of
financial undertakings, including other credit institutions for the first time.
III. Adjustments in the presentation of information compared to the previous annual
reporting period
The EU Taxonomy is a novel framework, and the interpretation of its requirements is still subject to change. Further guidance,
such as those provided by the European Commission in the FAQs can provide clarity and has been continuously monitored and
evaluated by the Bank. The disclosure in accordance with Article 8 of the EU Taxonomy for 2024 reflected the Bank’s current
understanding of the EU Taxonomy. The FAQs of the European Commission were taken into account, insofar as the guidance
does not exceed the requirements of the Taxonomy Regulation and Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178 or
contradict the requirements of those regulations or explanations provided in previous FAQs.

For the financial year 2024, the % of assets excluded from the numerator of the GAR (Article 7(2) and (3) and Section 1.1.2. of

19a or 29a of Directive 2013/34/EU as referred to in Article 7(3) of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178.
Disclosure template 1 – assets for the calculation of GAR
1. This template shall include information for loans and advances, debt securities and equity instruments in the banking book, towards financial corporates, non-
financial corporates (NFC), including SMEs, households (including residential real estate, house renovation loans and motor vehicle loans only) and local governments/
municipalities (house financing).
2. The following accounting categories of financial assets should be considered: Financial assets at amortised cost, financial assets at fair value through other
comprehensive income, investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss and non-trading
financial assets mandatorily at fair value through profit or loss, and real estate collaterals obtained by credit institutions by taking possession in exchange in of
cancellation of debts.
3. Banks with non-EU subsidiary should provide this information separately for exposures towards non-EU counterparties. For non-EU exposures, while there are
additional challenges in terms of absence of common disclosure requirements and methodology, as the EU taxonomy and the NFRD apply only at EU level, given the
relevance of these exposures for those credit institutions with non-EU subsidiaries, these institutions should disclose a separate GAR for non-EU exposures, on a best
effort basis, in the form of estimates and ranges, using proxies, and explaining the assumptions, caveats and limitations
4. For motor vehicle loans, institutions shall only include those exposures generated after the date of application of the disclosure
For the financial year 2024, collateral obtained by taking possession as set out in row 31 is not included in row 1 (which includes
loans and advances, debt securities and equity instruments).
For the financial year 2024, assets related to household exposures which are not relevant for the GAR calculation (i.e. exposures
not included in the green asset ratio for retail exposures as set out in section 1.2.1.3. of Annex V of the Commission Delegated
Regulation (EU) 2021/2178) are included in row 47 (other categories of assets) and not in row 49 (assets not covered for GAR
calculation), as these exposures are not excluded from the calculation of the numerator and denominator of the key
performance indicators in accordance with Article 7(1) of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178.

Template 2 – GAR sector information
1. Credit institutions shall disclose in this template information on exposures in the banking book towards those sectors covered by the Taxonomy (NACE sectors 4 levels
of detail), using the relevant NACE Codes on the basis of the principal activity of the counterparty
2. The counterparty NACE sector allocation shall be based exclusively on the nature of the immediate counterparty. The classification of the exposures incurred jointly
by more than one obligor shall be done on the basis of the characteristics of the obligor that was the more relevant, or determinant, for the institution to grant the
exposure. The distribution of jointly incurred exposures by NACE codes shall be driven by the characteristics of the more relevant or determinant obligor. Institutions
shall disclose information by NACE codes with the level of disaggregation required in the template.

Template 3 – GAR KPI stock
1. Institution shall disclose in this template the GAR KPIs on stock of loans calculated based on the data disclosed in template 1, on covered assets, and by applying the
formulas proposed in this template
2. Information on the GAR (green asset ratio of 'eligible' activities) shall be accompanied with information on the proportion of total assets covered by the GAR
3. Credit institutions can, in addition to the information included in this template, show the proportion of assets funding taxonomy relevant sectors that are
environmentally sustainable (Taxonomy-aligned). This information would enrich the information on the KPI on environmentally sustainable assets compared to total
covered assets
4. Credit institutions shall duplicate this template for revenue based and CapEx based disclosures
Note: For the financial year 2024, in order to accurately reflect the information to be disclosed in accordance with Sections
1.2.1.1., 1.2.1.2., 1.2.1.4. and 1.2.1.5. of Annex V of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178, the proportions to be disclosed
in this template are calculated by dividing the relevant eligible or aligned assets as recorded in template 1 (Assets for the
calculation of the GAR) by the respective covered assets (as recorded in column a, rows 1-31 and 48 of that template) instead
of the Total GAR assets (as set out in row 48 of that asset).

E1-1: Transition plan for climate change mitigation
Value chain
The climate and environmental business strategy implementation plan of RBHU Group has been approved by the RBHU Group
Management Board as part of the Bank’s ESG Policy Statement document as starting point of the RBHU Group transition
planning. The strategy has a clear goal of supporting customers’ funding for investments in the green transition process and
reducing emissions financed by RBHU Group.
Climate and environmental transition is an integral part of the Bank’s business strategy, representing a key step towards the
2050 net-zero target. In 2024, the primary focus was explicitly on converting the general qualitative goals into specific
quantitative targets.
RBHU Group is committed to achieve the following targets:
· Short-term (by 2025)
· Develop key elements of climate and environmental transition execution plan for reaching CO2 targets
2030 in line with RBI Group Transition plan and define necessary measures. 
· Mid-term (by 2030)
· Reduce GHG emissions in the corporate lending portfolio by 17 per cent in RBHU Group. For more
information, please refer to the chapter E1-4: Targets related to climate change mitigation and
adaptation
· Ongoing adaption of the climate and environmental business strategy / transition plan for climate
protection.
· Long-term (by 2050)
· The Bank intends to follow the RBI Group’s commitment to be in line with the 1.5ºC pathway and therefore
aims to be in line with the net-zero greenhouse gas emission target by 2050.
RBHU Group set itself emission targets which were approved by the Management Board in 2024. The emission targets are
formulated such that they support RBI Groups’ 2030 emission targets in line with the 1.5ºC pathway to reach net zero in 2050.
The pathway was derived based on the Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS) scenario. The chosen scenario is
country specific as processed and published by the International Monetary Fund through its climate change dashboard (NGFS
phase 4 net zero orderly transition).
The Bank is not excluded from the EU Paris-aligned Benchmarks and fulfills this disclosure in compliance with Commission
Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/2453 and Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/1818 (Climate Benchmark Regulation),
Articles 12.1 (d) to (g) and 12.2.
In its ESG Policy Statement, RBHU Group also focuses on supporting the Bank’s customers in their climate and environmental
transition. To support customers in their climate and environmental transition, RBHU Group intends to act at industry level,
customer level, and transaction and product level. In this respect, the following implementation actions are planned:
· Customer engagement strategies:
Focus on informing customers about the benefits and opportunities of sustainable finance solutions, with offering
interactive sessions on the advantage of transitioning to green energy sources, EVs, adhering to green building
standards and promoting energy efficiency investments.
· Development of new products or services:
Having established a strong presence in renewable energy and green building financing in recent years, the primary
focus of product development will now shift to introducing ESG KPI-linked loans and expanding green leasing
options.
· New policies and procedures:
Three key areas will be the focus when introducing new policies and procedures. First, emphasis will be placed on
aligning loan processing with EU Taxonomy, with necessary frameworks developed and best practices gathered
from clients, peers, and independent advisory service providers. Second, it is crucial to further strengthen the credit

policy to support green lending. Finally, maintaining the Green Incentive Program for green loans is necessary to
provide competitive offers in the market with maintaining profitability.
· Changes in lending conditions or documentation:
Embedding green building and sustainability criteria into loan terms and documentation.
· ESG data collection:
Encouraging clients to provide as detailed and accurate sustainability data as possible, be able to complete banking
ESG questionnaires. Integration of sustainability reporting standards into IT infrastructure.
· Implications on the business and risk profile in the short, medium and long-term, including an impact estimation on
revenues and profitability:
The Bank intends to seek new green lending opportunities within the existing portfolio and exclude most of
restrictive lending over on midterm. It also intends to focus on its established strengths in green building and
renewable energy financing. Additionally, introducing new KPI-linked financing loans could also contribute to
enhance the green aspect of the balance sheet.
Assets and business activities that are incompatible with or need significant efforts to be compatible with transition
to climate-neutral economy have not been identified.
· Actions and measures:
Increase customer engagement through relevant products and proper ESG advisory, while innovating and
customizing green financial products to meet emerging market demands and EU Taxonomy regulations. Offer ESG
advisory services to relevant clients, maintain and potentially enhance green incentivization schemes for borrowing,
and create financial projections under both scenarios with a focus on growth projections tied to green loan
products. Additionally, assess and upgrade IT infrastructure to ensure robust support for the green product lineup
and EU Taxonomy reporting.
Expected timeline for Implementation of our ambitions in line with our business activity:
· Short-term (0-2 years):
· Launch and promotion of the updated green loan product suite
· Continue participation in more state-incentivized green loan programs.
· Medium-term (2-5 years):
· Establishment of a lending oriented ESG advisory service
· Expansion into green bonds investments and arrangements.
· Long-term (5+ years):
· Enhanced market reputation as a sustainable green bank
· Full alignment with EU Taxonomy and green capital relief program supports entrenched into all aspects of
lending.
Regarding transition, a key aspect is the planned development of the climate and environmental transition plan. The transition
plan is set to serve as a guide for business decisions involving large corporates with the aim to develop a 1.5ºC-aligned
corporate portfolio by 2030. Based on the ESG score and the status of clients’ specific physical emissions data, clients would be
clustered into three categories:
· Supportive – customers are advanced in setting up their emissions in line with RBI Group’s and consequently RBHU
Group’s 2030 targets, and their ESG rating is above average. The Bank’s focus for these clients is to provide
innovative ESG products and orient them towards future environmental challenges.
· Transformative – customers either lack developed targets to reach the 2030 threshold or have a below-average ESG
rating. The Bank’s focus for these clients is to offer a range of products and services to help improving their ESG
transition ambitions.
· Restrictive – customers that do not have developed targets and whose ESG rating is below average.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024

To support the transition of the financed corporate portfolio towards the environmental targets outlined above, RBHU Group
has introduced portfolio KPI monitoring in terms of average ESG score starting from Y2025 as part of its Corporate Credit
Policy.
Own operations
RBI Group views environmental and climate protection as an integral part of business activity and sees itself as a fair partner
to the environment. The direct environmental impacts of our operational activities are limited compared with those of
production industries. Nevertheless, RBI Group has the goal of limiting negative environmental impacts at all of its sites.
Short-term (by 2026): see at E1-4: Targets related to climate change mitigation and adaptation.
As a responsible operator, RBHU Group has implemented and operates two management systems to ensure the company:
In the case of ISO 14001 EMS:
· Continually improves its overall environmental performance, providing a reliable foundation for initiatives aimed at
sustainable development (e.g., operating a circular economy)
· Systematically manages its environmental responsibilities by enhancing environmental performance, significantly
contributing to environmental sustainability.
In the case of ISO 50001 EMS:
· The general goal is to continuously improve the organization’s energy management performance, including energy
efficiency, usage, and adjusted consumption. The overall objectives also include – in alignment with EMS – reducing
greenhouse gas emissions and energy costs.
ESRS 2 SBM-3: Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with
strategy and business model
Climate stress testing
The Bank applies stress testing methodologies as part of the risk identification and assessment process, and most importantly
for the analysis of the resilience of its exposures. Climate stress testing is conducted centrally on HO level for all Network Units
and overall on Group level. As such, the outcome of the 2022 external/ECB climate risk stress testing exercise conducted by RBI
was an important first step, and it confirmed the sectors and regions that were identified internally, on group level, as mostly
affected by climate risk.
The exercise gave RBI important benchmark information with respect to model calibrations, data availability and the general
confirmation of its internal framework. Based on this information, the three-year disorderly transition scenario (delayed
warming by 2°C) has been incorporated into RBI’s internal capital adequacy assessment framework (ICAAP), together with a
flood risk scenario.
After the first successful external climate stress testing exercise in 2022 and internal climate stress testing exercise in 2023, the
internal framework for climate stress testing was further refined to incorporate more risks and balance sheet assumptions
(covering credit, market & operational risk). For the 2024 climate stress testing, RBI’s positioning as of the cut-off of Q2-2024
was considered in the course of the assessment. The time horizon applied in the short term is three years, and the long-term
analysis covers the time horizon up until 2050 (at time buckets 2030, 2040, 2050).
The transitional risks for non-retail and retail credit risk as well as operational and market risks were subject to an acute
physical risk stress test for the retail collateral relating to flood risk. The basis of the scenarios was assessed by RBI’s risk
research in line with the latest Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS) publications. The following scenarios have
been selected:
· Disorderly (delayed transition) scenarios explore higher transition risks due to policies being delayed or divergent
across countries and sectors. For example, (shadow) carbon prices are typically higher for a given temperature
outcome.
· Orderly scenarios aimed at net-zero emissions by 2050 assume climate policies are introduced early and become
gradually more stringent. Both physical and transition risks are relatively subdued.
· Hot house world (current policies) scenarios assume that some climate policies are implemented in some
jurisdictions, but overall efforts are insufficient to halt significant global warming. The scenarios result in severe
physical risk with limited transition risk.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
118
Separate non-financial statement
The selected scenarios are compatible with the critical climate-related assumptions made in the financial statements in terms
of the time horizon, methodology and possible outcomes.
Disorderly scenarios are largely driving transition risks, thereby staggering carbon and energy prices, which mutes gross
domestic product (GDP) growth in the first years of the short-term scenarios. In the long-term perspective for disorderly,
orderly and hot house world, the projections are rather mixed. The disorderly scenario shows a significant downside between
2030 and 2034 due to severe delayed policy changes. The orderly scenario, however, shows a more positive GDP development
from 2035 to 2045 due to the smoother transition. By the year 2050, it is expected that the differences between the various
scenarios will converge again.
For the non-retail portfolio, due to the lack of historical data combined with sharp and prolonged increases in carbon taxes
and electricity costs, RBI cannot directly measure the impact of climate transition policies on defaults of corporates in the non-
retail portfolio (as in the case with IFRS 9 and regular macro stress testing). Instead, RBI currently uses an approach that
models the impact of such policies using structural models at the NACE sector level (level 2), based on the development of
corporate profitability and debt-servicing ability. RBI then uses the financial module of its corporate rating model to turn
projections of firm finances into one-year probability of default (PD) projections.
RBI refers to the first step as the transition risk engine, which consists of two parts:
· The sectoral-level general equilibrium models: this model calculates the impact of policies or shocks in the economy
by taking account of the interdependencies between market participants and applying the economic theory of
general equilibrium. The sectoral model provides the production/output and cost levels during stressed periods for
each sector.
· Firm-level balance sheet models: the outcomes of the sectoral model are then transposed to the individual
companies in the respective sectors.
This approach produces stressed balance sheets that include both the “direct” effect of carbon taxes and the indirect effect of
macroeconomic aggregates. Once RBI has produced the stressed corporate balance sheets, the corporate rating model is
applied to these shocks to produce one-year PDs. Finally, the projected PD is calculated by taking the internal rating derivation
logic into account.
In the retail portfolio, especially for residential mortgage exposures, retail models have been extended for the purpose of the
climate stress test to include energy price and house price index (HPI) developments in the PD and LGD (loss given default)
macroeconomic models according to the energy efficiency (EPC, energy performance certificate) label awarded to the
underlying collateral. For this purpose, each retail macroeconomic model now includes the HPI per EPC as parameter and
energy prices in the climate and environmental stress calculation. The HPI per EPC scenario applied is based on the Network for
Greening the Financial System input, which also includes an HPI for unknown EPC labels that is applied accordingly in the
assessment. In line with the ECB climate stress test 2022, all corporate bonds and equity positions in the trading book are
subject to this fair value revaluation as market risk scope.
From an operational risk perspective, initial physical risks in the form of direct losses (e.g. critical IT infrastructure) and
transitional and compliance risk scenarios (e.g. greenwashing) have been defined as part of the economic capital calculation to
account for forward-looking risk triggered by environmental and climate-related events in the short-term scenario as well.
Both effects might yield reputational and legal costs. For market risk the corporate bond portfolio was stressed in the short-
term scenario with dedicated bond spread shocks being applied directly affecting the profits and losses or capital.
In addition to the assessment of the risk-related impacts, profitability impacts were also re-evaluated in the course of the
short-term exercise. For this purpose, net interest income and net fee commission income flows were simulated given a
stressed interest environment under the disorderly scenario. Alongside the credit risks, impacts on net interest income and net
fee commission income were the main contributors to the impact of the stress test in the short-term scenarios.
As outlined, the short-term exercise is complemented with a 1-year acute physical risk scenario for which the collaterals on
retail and non-retail are shocked individually. For this purpose, all collaterals are scored from low to very high under the given
scenario according to Moody’s physical risk tool. According to this score, haircuts on the dedicated collateral values and real
estate value are applied, reducing their values significantly. The resilience to further physical hazards, e.g. heatwave, will be
investigated in upcoming exercises.
Based on the learning from previous exercises (long and short-term), the focus for the 2024 long-term exercise was on credit
risk, market risk and income components only. For the analysis, a sector-related portfolio growth was considered as part of a
dynamic portfolio assumption – on top of a static balance sheet assumption. In contrast to the short-term stress testing, the
disorderly, orderly and Hot-House-World scenario was analysed for the long-term exercise.
The results of the short-term and acute physical risk stress tests contribute to RBHU Group’s framework via a deduction item
from the internal capital – see the dedicated results below. Furthermore, the climate risk stress test is one of the input
parameters to the materiality assessment and should also complement the target and strategy selection. Given the relatively
young discipline, the annual exercise is used to reassess the assumptions made and models in order to reduce the uncertainty

119
of the resilience analysis. This especially covers the area of dynamic balance sheet assumptions, data coverage/completeness
and modelling assumptions given the scarcity of data.
Both on RBI Group and RBHU Group level, the impact on the risk parameters from the climate risk exercises has been assessed
as non-material, supporting the overall resilience of the Bank. This is considered mild, in comparison to regular stress test
exercises, such as the EBA stress test where a comparably larger depletion is observed and confirms the relatively low effect
from the isolated climate effect on the risk parameters.

RBI taxonomy rulebook
The RBI taxonomy rulebook outlines the regulatory requirements of the EU Taxonomy Regulation and the respective
implementing and delegated acts and how these need to be implemented across the RBI Group, respectively the Bank in order
ensure regulatory compliance. The RBI taxonomy rulebook thus provides the methodology for the disclosure of the proportion
of financing provided by the Bank which relates to economic activities that substantially contribute to the environmental
objectives of the EU Taxonomy and fulfil the relevant technical screening criteria, DNSH requirements and minimum
safeguards. The Bank ensures that a financing flagged as taxonomy-aligned is classified in line with the requirements of the
RBI taxonomy rulebook. Accordingly, Sustainable Finance, with the support of the relevant departments, reviews the respective
transactions and provided documentation. In addition, where applicable, the assessment must be carried out using a
dedicated tool that ensures that the requirements are fulfilled.
The policy concerns both the collection of disclosed counterparty KPIs regarding general-purpose exposures as well as the
assessment of exposures with known use of proceeds during the origination process and based on documentation provided by
the counterparty. Thus, it must be considered by all employees at head office and in the subsidiaries involved in the
assessment and flagging of taxonomy eligibility and alignment and the respective reporting of KPIs, in particular ESG experts,
Risk Controlling and Regulatory Reporting.
RBHU Group is subject to the requirement to publish non-financial information pursuant to Article 19a and Article 29a of CSRD
and consequently to the disclosure obligation as outlined in Article 8 Taxonomy Regulation and the respective delegated acts.
The respective assessment of exposures with known use of proceeds is conducted locally in RBHU Group, while the
implementation of the RBI taxonomy rulebook lies with the Group Risk Data & Regulatory Reporting department.
The application of the rules falls into the responsibility of the Department Heads of those business areas that are in charge for
the lending activities.

E1-3: Actions and resources in relation to climate change policies
Value chain
Corporate and Institutional customers
One key goal for the climate & environmental business strategy is to incorporate the climate targets of the Paris Agreement
into RBI Group and consequently to RBHU Group balance sheet. The Bank identifies and measures climate related impacts. This
allows to recognize new business opportunities on one hand, while on the other hand setting measures to mitigate harmful
effects to the climate and environment, thus making its overall business composition more sustainable.

Separate non-financial statement
In a first step, RBI Group runs an assessment both at portfolio and counterparty level, on a qualitative and quantitative basis
across the various customer types and industries. The goal is to identify both risks and opportunities and to create the
conditions for potentially necessary management of sustainability risks customer and industry levels. At this stage at portfolio
level, the Bank relies on the results of the materiality analysis and impact analysis, the financed emission calculation, and
results from the climate stress test. At counterparty level, the Bank focuses on the ESG counterparty assessment and includes
its considerations in the lending process.
RBI then transforms those results into internal steering impulses according to financial, risk, and operational needs. RBI and
consequently RBHU Group set targets and prioritize our resource allocation by reducing relations with businesses not meeting
our environmental and economical parameters. This helps us both achieving our ambitions and realizing opportunities at the
same time.
The sectoral strategies are the tool for the steering process. In Phase 1, we classified customers and transactions in three
clusters: “restrictive” designates candidates earmarked for termination in case transition is not achieved; “transformative”
designates customers that support our transformation with new loans meeting our sustainability criteria (they account for the
main part of the portfolio); supportive is for customers already green. In Phase 2 we plan to design engagement criteria and
quantitative targets. The credit policy and the lending process are included in the steering process. The credit policy currently
reflects the minimum ESG criteria and guidelines in accordance with the latest ESG risk developments. The lending process
includes ESG-relevant aspects in the “three lines of defence”-model for the corporate segment.
Sustainable financing
Providing sustainable financing generates added value for our customers and a wide range of activities for society that are
suited to sustainable financing. The Bank describes financing as being sustainable when it has a long-term positive impact on
the environment and climate and/or on societal and social issues, and when it supports the attainment of the Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs). More specifically, the definition of a sustainable transaction is based on the EU Taxonomy
Regulation and on RBHU Group’s ESG Rulebook (basis: RBI’s ESG Rulebook) definition for green and social. The eligibility criteria
of the listed frameworks differ in terms of complexity and precision.
The total volume of sustainable financing (limited to financing with a positive impact on the environment and the climate and
ESG-linked financing) for corporate and institutional customers at RBHU Group and its subsidiaries in 2024 was around €574
million as of 31 December 2024. Of this amount, customers have utilized financing lines amounting to €541 million. In addition,
there was an unutilized line of sustainable financing of nearly €33 million.

Sustainable real estate
Real Estate and Construction are among the key industries under the radar of those that are involved in green economy and
finance. RBHU Group is committed to being one of the pioneers in the industry, which means that it does not follow the market,
but rather strives for sectoral strategies that reflect its leading role in banking. Therefore, aligned to the RBI Group practice
RBHU Group included Real Estate & Construction as part of its sectoral policy with the main goal of defining the categories for
the transition to green economy.
The policy defines engagement criteria based on ESG clusters and provides EAD portfolio targets for 2025 and 2030 for
Construction, and 2025 for Real Estate. In order to monitor those targets, a Power Bi monitoring tool was developed which
shows the portfolio distribution and in case of deviation from the targets, notifies the relevant stakeholders (e.g. Industry Lead,
Sustainable Finance) and negotiates paths with these parties to solve the breach.
In 2024, the volume of financing utilized at RBHU Group in the area of sustainable real estate was nearly € 250 million as of 31
December. Moreover, sustainable real estate finance is one of the most important asset categories in the volume of finance
with a positive impact on the environment and climate with 43% of the total.
Renewable energy, energy efficiency and electrification
The 2023 World Energy Transition Outlook (World Energy Transitions Outlook 2023: 1.5°C Pathway (irena.org)), explicitly
identified renewable energy, energy efficiency, and electrification as key transition drivers, broadly enabled by the
technological advancements of renewable energy production capacities. Moreover, it highlights that even though considerable
progress has been made in the past decade, financing institutions should further prioritize supporting the construction of such
infrastructure.
Based on an increasing RBI Group portfolio base and RBI Group business pipeline of applicable projects and customer capex
investments, there is a substantial business case arising for RBI Group’s carbon transition to Net Zero 2050. For RBHU Group
most opportunities originate around renewable energy, energy efficiency, and electrification.
Renewable energy
Renewable energy consists of solar, wind (onshore and offshore), hydro and rooftop solar. The build out of renewable energy
production will contribute an estimated 25% to global CO2 reduction. An estimated annual deployment of ca. 1000 GW of
renewable power is required to stay on a 1.5°C pathway (according to World Energy Transitions Outlook 2023: 1.5°C Pathway
(irena.org)).
In 2024, the volume of financing committed to renewable energy investment projects by RBHU Group was € 175 million as of 31
December 2024 which, alongside a solid pipeline and significant demand growth expected, provides a good basis for future
business development.
Key steps to further increase the renewable energy business segment are to increase RBHU Group’s track record with
established relationship customers and undertake the financing of projects under newly implemented regulatory regimes like
onshore wind financing.
As this is an ongoing process there are not specific time horizons defined for completing this action.
Electrification
In focus are Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), public transport (EV fleet), EV charging infrastructure, electricity grids,
electric utilities, and adjacent industries. Broad electrification of transport and industrial processes will contribute to an
estimated 19% of global CO2 reduction. Electrification is set to become the main energy carrier, accounting for 50% of total
final energy consumption by 2050.
To enable the electrification value chain, RBHU Group is actively looking into opportunities from battery production to BESS
projects and to continue the cooperation with RBHU Group’s industry specialists, specifically for automotive. Contributing to
the accelerating growth of a potentially booming BESS market are falling production costs, especially of lithium-ion batteries,
which despite substantial R&D working on alternatives, are still the dominating technology.
As this is an ongoing process there are not specific time horizons defined for completing this action.
Retail banking
RBHU Group aims to further increase new green loan sales to private individuals and small-business customers, and therefore
advise our customers on the possibility of green mortgage loans (secured by real estate and are made available exclusively to
finance or refinance, in whole or in part, new and/or existing transactions with a specific use of proceeds as defined by the
framework for Green and Social Loans included in the local Credit Policies).

Prevention of greenwashing and negative ESG impacts
To tackle the topics of negative ESG impacts and greenwashing prevention within the sustainable finance transactions, RBHU
Group has implemented different processes, which include the ESG Expert Opinion and the Greenwashing Prevention Check.
RBHU Group also conforms to the exclusion list (established on RBI Group level) of all corporate activities in which RBHU Group
does not wish to be involved.
ESG expert opinion
An ESG expert opinion is prepared for particularly critical customers, but specifically for critical projects. The ESG expert opinion
evaluates the ESG impact of the transaction at project and company level and assesses its impact on the environment and
social issues. It also includes a qualitative assessment and presents a conclusion on whether or not the transaction should be
pursued from an ESG impact point of view. Consequently, the ESG expert opinion provides decision makers with more detailed
information and enables them to consider ESG impacts in their lending decisions. It therefore plays a key role in preventing
negative impacts from an ESG perspective. The assessment in the ESG expert opinion takes the following aspects into account:
industry impact based on the Principles for Responsible Banking (PRB) Impact Radar; company- and project-related negative
impact on key sustainability issues and their mitigation measures; past and current controversies and incidents; the legal
environment (i.e. whether high environmental and social standards are ensured through EU regulations).
For critical cases, the ESG expert opinion is issued by RBI AG’s Sustainable Finance department with the contributions of local
ESG experts. To formalize and standardize the process, an ESG expert opinion tool has been set up internally and a workshop
was held to train local ESG experts on how to write an ESG expert opinion and how to navigate through the tool. Follow-up
trainings will be established.
Greenwashing prevention check
RBHU Group has established a process to prevent greenwashing and has rolled it out as part of the RBHU Group ESG Rulebook.
Under the greenwashing prevention check, RBHU Group commits to certain internal process steps, which must be complied
with in the event of a sustainable transaction with a customer. In particular, local ESG experts are involved in the bid phase, the
decision phase and the execution phase of a sustainable financing transaction with the external support of RBI AG’s
Sustainable Finance team if necessary. The greenwashing prevention check focuses on the structure of sustainable financial
products, including products that are designated as green, social, sustainability-linked or similar. For the definitions of
sustainable business transactions, standards such as the Loan Markets Association guidelines, the ICMA Principles and the EU
Taxonomy Regulation were applied. These are used for qualification and (de)flagging of business transactions and form the
basis for the greenwashing prevention process. In other words, the greenwashing prevention check is a precondition for RBHU
Group’s involvement in sustainable finance products. The check is applied for all sustainable finance products. By involving the
local ESG experts in ESG transactions, RBHU Group provides a further supervisory body to minimize greenwashing risks and
contribute to greenwashing prevention.
Raising awareness – supporting the local business units
It is key to raise awareness of ESG-related topics in the business units, to build up ESG knowledge internally and to ensure
efficient cooperation within the RBI Group. Accordingly, Corporate ESG Ambassadors have been established in all the subsidiary
banks in Central and Eastern Europe, including the subsidiary bank in Hungary. The primary objectives of the network are to
pass on knowledge and information between head office and RBHU Group, to advertise ESG activities for corporate customers
in Hungary and to support these companies so that they can leverage the opportunities available to them in the area of ESG
megatrends and combat global climate change to the greatest possible extent, as well as updating and educating local
relationship managers on latest developments in ESG. Local ESG Ambassadors regularly participate at the business-specific
trainings provided by Head office on subjects such as EU taxonomy compliance, ICMA bond standards, current developments,
circular economy, as well as on the various ESG and sustainability-related products. In addition, RBHU Group’s local ESG
Ambassadors participate on monthly update calls held with the Corporate ESG Ambassadors in order to maintain a dialog on
ESG topics. Through this close cooperation, we are able to maintain and foster the RBI Group standard for day-to-day business
on the subject of sustainable financing.
The actions - described in E1-3/Value chain chapter - scope covers the segments impacted by the Bank’s financial services.
The actions - described in E1-3/Value chain chapter - do not require significant capital expenditures.
Own operations
A variety of options are available to enhance sustainability within the company. At RBHU Group, these range from building
management and energy reduction measures, to increasing the share of material recycled and staging information campaigns
for employees. The actions taken to increase the sustainability of own operations varies across RBHU Group, as it is within the
local sustainability management’s expertise to inform which actions will have the biggest impact.

Our primary targets include among others the continuous reduction of RBHU Group's carbon footprint. From 2022 onwards, we
have started quantifying it and setting specific targets to help achieve this objective. An overview of a few key actions as well
as their implementation for 2025-2026, can be found below:
· Purchasing green electricity for both the AGORA Headquarters and branch offices:
· During the procurement of electricity, we strive to ensure that at least 30% of the electricity purchased for
RBHU Group comes from certified renewable energy sources. This step is crucial in proportionately reducing
greenhouse gas emissions from electricity producers.
· Establishing selective waste collection in the Bank’s branch network:
· The selective waste collection system implemented at the AGORA headquarters is very popular among
employees. Based on the experiences gained so far, we plan to introduce selective waste collection in suitable
branch offices, contributing to the expansion and operation of a circular economy.
· Purchasing electric vehicles for the Bank’s fleet:
· In 2024, we acquired 16 new EVs through grant support, which will help reduce the CO2 emissions of RBHU
Group’s road fleet. Leveraging these experiences, we aim to create further opportunities to green the RBHU
Group fleet in 2025.
· Installing new solar parks in selected branches:
· Since its commissioning in 2022, the 50 kWp solar park installed on the Raiffeisen Bank Service Center building
has generated approximately 64.39 MWh of energy, preventing 29.29 tons of CO2 emissions. Based on this
success, we have initially selected two branches where the conditions (location, required energy amount,
permits) allow for the installation of additional solar systems.
· Continuing branch lighting upgrades (LED Installation):
· With each redesign, new branches are renovated every year, replacing the old lighting systems with new LED-
based lighting.

E1-4: Targets related to climate change mitigation and adaptation
Value chain
Lending portfolio (non-financial corporations)
The RBHU Group’s financed emissions targets are at the first stage set for non-financial corporations and are in accordance
with RBI Group’s approach.
The backbone of net-zero emissions is the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change
(the IPCC). Financial institutions should establish their emission reduction targets in line with category C1 of the AR6, i.e., 1.5°C
pathway with no or limited overshoot. The RBHU Group’s approach, adhering to the RBI Group’s approach for setting targets
involved the following considerations, guidelines, and components: in order to set science-based targets and be compatible
with limiting global warming to 1.5°C, RBI considered a diverse range of climate scenarios to detect relevant environmental,
societal, technology, market and policy-related developments and determine decarbonization levers. RBI also considered the
Emissions Gap Report (2023) by the United Nations Environment Programme as a part of the framework. Accordingly,
Nationally Determined Contributions in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and National Energy and
Climate Plans of the EU Commission repositories were examined. National pledges demonstrate the decarbonization paths of
countries as declared by themselves. RBI compared national pledges to net zero pathways and noticed that in most cases,
national pledges are less ambitious than net zero scenario decarbonization pathways. In such cases, RBI applied net zero
scenario reduction pathways to ensure that the pathways are followed in line with net-zero projections.
Two main approaches exist for setting financed emissions targets: the overarching target, also known as the Absolute
Contraction Approach (ACA) and the Sectoral Decarbonization Approach (SDA). The ACA (overarching target) is a one-size-fits-
all approach that enables companies to deliver their absolute emissions values in line with global decarbonization pathways,
while the SDA entails carbon-intensity metrics. Both approaches have own benefits and limitations. As a starting point, RBI
opted for the ACA and set an overarching target for the non-financial corporations’ portfolio in line with the 1.5°C pathway.
Following its rigorous research and exploration of scientific/academic writings and practices applied for decarbonization, and
after reading through climate scenarios and pathways, RBI inferred that several scenarios do not provide GHG data whereas
CSRD require undertakings to disclose their values in GHG. As a PCAF signatory, RBI discloses its financed emissions in GHG
(CO2e), and therefore, scenarios including GHG are of priority.
The scenario RBI has chosen is the Net Zero Orderly Transition scenario of the Network for Greening the Financial System
(NGFS). The NGFS, a group of central banks and supervisors, develops their scenarios phase-by-phase, and RBI applied their
scenario of the current phase (Phase 4). To note, the NGFS provides several scenarios that include different projections such as
delayed transition, well below 2°C, etc. RBI’s choice, in line with the 1.5°C pathway requirement, has been the Net Zero Orderly
Transition scenario which is an ambitious scenario that limits global warming to 1.4°C in line with AR6 of the IPCC. At the time
of the IPCC AR6, the NGFS scenario, then having its phase 2, was an acceptable scenario as referenced by the IPCC. Phase 4,
published in late 2023, follows the same structures while offering more granularity. In addition, the International Monetary
Fund, in cooperation with the NGFS, curated NGFS phase 4 scenarios and published them at their climate change dashboard.
This enabled a country-specific view of the GHG emissions as a combination of CO2 and non-CO2 emissions (non-CO2 emissions
are other gases under the Kyoto Protocol in NGFS). GHG gases, in addition to carbon dioxide include Kyoto gases under both the
NGFS scenario and PCAF standards.
The NGFS scenario draws upon integrated assessment models. Integrated assessment models (IAM) are scientific models that
provide links to societal structures, economic facts and projections, and they also take biosphere and atmosphere into
account. This synthesizing approach is based on human-earth interplay. Hence, although RBI considered the granularity of the
SDA on specific sectors, it opted for an overarching target based on the NGFS scenario due to an extensive lack of other
industries under the current SDA framework and inadequate information about GHG guidance. It should also be noted that the
NGFS scenarios, in themselves, and as stated by the NGFS, consist of sectoral granularity to an extent that is above average
compared to other scenarios assessed by the IPCC AR6 (see NGFS scenarios, p.4). The main categories under the integrated
assessment models are energy industries, transportation, and buildings. As is the case with several other scenarios, the NGFS
scenario, too, projects immediate action and significant changes to the energy mix. The scenario’s immediacy can be noticed
through the sharper decreases projected by 2030 and 2035, having a time path until 2050 where net zero scenarios are to
provide 0 or lower net CO2. Furthermore, RBI will continue to explore sectoral approaches, also keeping its stance that they will
extend and develop further. In RBI’s case, although it assumes alignment of the portfolio with country-specific
macroeconomics, ACA fits the case for the beginning of this dynamic process as RBI’s portfolio does not carry significant
exposures in sensitive industries such as thermal coal and oil upstream. RBI’s baseline year has been determined as the last
year of its financed emissions disclosure, and the data used was the NGFS scenario curated by the International Monetary
Fund in order to apply the decarbonization path toward the target year 2030.
Pursuant to these considerations and having the possibility to have country-specific data, RBI applied global decarbonization
paths based on the portfolio approach, as the underlying modelling entails the above-mentioned sectoral consideration. This
cross-sectoral approach enabled RBI to project its GHG emissions for the target year in line with the 1.5°C pathway required by
CSRD. These levers are expected to contribute to achieving RBI’s GHG emissions reduction target in line with group policies, as
they reflect cross-sectoral projections on the basis of weighted exposure. RBHU Group sets the targets as 17.11 per cent
financed emissions reductions for its non-financial corporations portfolio.

While setting the target, the Bank involved all stakeholders such as Corporate Business, Risk Management, and the sustainable
finance team, and finally its Board of Management approved these targets. RBI Group and the local RBHU Group aimed to
follow best practices and knowledge in the industry through this approach as RBI noticed that physical emission intensities,
although widely used, do not guarantee the same percentage of decrease in financed emissions that employ a different metric
(kgCO2e/t Euro). This might lead to an unprecedented outcome such as non-decreasing or inadequately decreasing financed
emissions while even physical emissions or their intensities flow as projected. Another risk point is the volatility and non-
comparability of the Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials (PCAF) standards to date. Nonetheless, as a financial
institution, the Bank is aware that it has to work on that basis despite such proneness to volatility in current standards.
As the scenarios for decarbonization do not provide specific guidance for scopes other than scope 1(e.g. IEA NZE 2050), the
Bank, in line with RBI’s approach, applied a pro-rata decarbonization share for the other scopes. The RBHU Group also considers
that scope 3 is more vulnerable to volatility and double counting; in that respect, targets are set including scope 1 and scope 2
currently. The RBHU Group will continue its development of sectoral approaches which are used for internal steering particular
to the non-financial corporations portfolio.
Pursuant to the target setting disclosed in line with the 1.5°C pathway under the IPCC and in line with CSRD provisions, the
RBHU Group will track and report its financed emissions and their intensity (in tCO2e/mn€) in the next years to disclose how the
portfolio is developing based on the initial settings towards the target year 2030. The Bank commits to the above-mentioned
target level if no material adverse change happens.

It should be noted that the targets set attribute to covered emissions for the non-financial corporations lending portfolio (see
Section E1-6). For the 2023 baseline year, scope 1 and scope 2 total financed emissions for the lending portfolio of the non-
financial corporations were: 778,074 kgCO2e. The relevant financed emission intensity for 2023 was: 273 tCO2e/mn €.
Hence, the 2030 financed emissions intensity as target is: 227 tCO2e/mn € (2030 absolute financed emissions: 645,801 kgCO2e).
For the calculations of the base year the PCAF database from September 2024 was considered.
Retail mortgage loans
RBI Group HO has centrally started to calculate the baseline of the emissions for the year 2024; this includes residential real
estate. This will serve as a basis for RBHU Group future plans, regarding emission target setting. However, before setting a
target, we deem a monitoring period of at least one year necessary, engaging with the stakeholders and thoroughly
understanding the drivers as well as well as uncertainties in the data, in order to ensure the stability and consistency of the
methodology and the results. In light of these points, we shall set targets in 2025.
Own operations
At the RBHU Group level, local Scope 1 and 2 targets have not been defined; thus, RBHU Group generally aligns to the RBI Group-
level targets when it comes to own operations.

E1-6: Gross scopes 1, 2, 3 and total GHG emissions
Value chain
Since 2020, RBI has calculated and published its Scope 3 category 15 financed GHG emissions, i.e. the indirect downstream
emissions associated with its lending and investment activities. RBHU Group was part of the centrally calculated Scope 3
emission figures but has not been disclosed on individual basis until year-end 2024. This has been an important step in
identifying sectors on which to focus its efforts to mitigate the negative impact on the environment of its customers’ activities.
RBHU Group was part of the centrally calculated Scope 3 emission figures but has not disclosed on individual basis until year-
end 2024.
The methodology applied is based on the PCAF standard – the most widely accepted, GHG Protocol-compliant standard for
financed emissions calculations. For the 2024 year-end publication, the scope of calculations was enlarged by including the
following for the first time, compared to previously reported information of RBI Group:
· Scope 3 emissions from all sectors were taken in account when calculating the RBHU Group’s financed emissions in
order to account for the indirect upstream and downstream emissions of RBI’s customers in accordance with the
recommendation of the PCAF standard.
· A first estimation of financed emissions associated with the mortgage asset class.
· PCAF parameters from September 2024, including the inflation adjustment effect, have been used for the year-end
2024 financed emissions calculation for corporate exposures. Additionally, year-end 2023 financed emissions values
and emission intensities for corporate exposures have been recalculated using the same updated PCAF parameters
to ensure comparability of results across both reporting periods.
· When calculating Sovereign emissions, calculation was adjusted so that it accounts for the impact of the purchasing
power parity.
· Results are based on the IFRS scope of consolidation.
An overview of the PCAF asset classes in scope for the year-end 2024 calculations is provided below, with an indication of the
coverage achieved in each asset class. Coverage of less than 100 per cent is the result of data gaps or due to financed
emissions calculations according to the PCAF not being applicable to a specific asset category.

In total, the Bank’s financed GHG emissions calculations covered 70 per cent of its total assets. Covered exposures are defined
as those gross carrying amounts which could be mapped to PCAF asset classes and for which calculation of financed
emissions was performed successfully. PCAF asset classes cover exposures to loans and advances, debt securities and equity
not held for trading from central banks, credit institutions, other financial corporations, non-financial corporations and
household mortgage loans. The PCAF standard sets out requirements for determining the portion of customers’ emissions that
can be attributed to a financial institution. Customer-specific GHG emissions data was used in the calculation where available.
This data allowed a more precise assessment of financed emissions, but availability was still limited. RBI and alongside RBHU
Group conducted an extensive data collection exercise in an effort to constantly improve the quality of their calculations.
Estimates for customer scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions were derived using emission factors, representing average (physical or
economic activity-based) emissions intensity values for specific industries and countries. The main source of emission factors
was the PCAF database.
The PCAF asset class of vehicle loans, which are non-material to RBI’s overall portfolio, was outside the scope of the
calculations.
Avoided emissions were reported separately and were not added in total financed emissions; in line with the GHG Protocol,
there was no netting with positive emissions from the portfolio. As the name suggests, avoided emissions are those that were
avoided by investing in renewable energy projects, compared to the emissions that would have been created in the absence of
the respective project.
The PCAF parameters from September 2024 were applied in the financed emissions calculation. The value for the PCAF data
quality score, a measure of the quality of data used to estimate financed emissions, shows a weighted average of 4 (on a scale
of 1 to 5, where 1 is the highest, 5 is the lowest of the quality). Further details regarding data quality are provided in the table
below showing the results of the calculation on the level of the PCAF asset classes.
Sovereign emissions were calculated according to the PCAF standard using emission factors available in the PCAF emission
factor database. Sovereign scope 1 production financed emissions were disclosed twice, in line with the PCAF requirements,
with the first calculation including the net effect of the land use, land use change, and forestry sectors, while this effect was
excluded in the second calculation. The results obtained amounted to 0.85 million tons of CO2e if the net effect of Land Use,
Land-Use Change, and Forestry (LULUCF) was included, and 0.96 million tons of CO2e if these sectors were excluded. Emission
factors were primarily sourced from the PCAF database and represent the emission intensity of the countries’ respective
economies (GDP expressed in purchasing power parity terms). The high data quality score achieved reflected the good quality
of the underlying data, obtained directly from the GHG inventories that countries are required to regularly maintain. It is also
important to highlight that, to some extent, the sovereign emissions can be expected to overlap with those of the RBHU
Group’s corporate portfolio, provided that activities at the source of the corporate emissions are located in countries and
sectors covered by the national GHG inventories. Therefore, the emissions of the asset class sovereign debt are not included in
the total sums of financed emissions in the following tables (e.g. Financed emissions by PCAF asset classes, Total greenhouse
gas emissions in detail etc.) to avoid double counting of uncertain magnitude. The financed emissions of the asset class
sovereign debt are transparently reported below the line total.

The table above shows the results of RBHU Group’s financed emissions calculations including customers’ scope 3 emissions for
the PCAF asset classes business loans and unlisted equity, listed equity and corporate bonds, and project finance. The Bank
would like to highlight that the scope 3 financed emissions imply double counting of emissions in a bank’s own portfolio. This is
because some of the Bank’s customers’ scope 3 emissions will already be accounted for in the scope 1 and 2 of other
customers in cases where the latter has been part of the former’s value chain – either upstream (as suppliers) or downstream
(as customers).
The RBI Group and the RBHU Group as well has been striving to stabilize the data quality, calculation framework and scope of
own financed emission calculations. The Bank also understands that measure of PCAF data quality and stability of financed
emissions results have not been exclusively driven by own efforts, but also reflect the soundness and comprehensiveness of
the data the Bank depends on, namely customers’ own disclosures and external databases. We expect corporate disclosures to
progressively converge towards best practice and provide the most comprehensive coverage, supported by the improved
harmonization of reporting requirements.

strategy and business model
Materiality assessment of social risks
In addition to the climate and environmental materiality assessment, the overall ESG risk assessment also includes social risks.
By conducting a thorough materiality assessment of social risks, organizations can better understand and manage the social
factors that are critical to their long-term success and sustainability. The social component was classified as material for the
2024 RBHU Group impact assessment. Qualitatively, the counterparty social risk was assessed as Low to Moderate. This
qualitative low to moderate risk was documented, as the assessment and management of social risk are integral to the
internal ESG framework.
Positive and negative impacts (own operations)
The RBI group strategic roadmap for 2024 and 2025 includes a dedicated pillar on people and culture. Our people and culture
pillar includes strategic initiatives aimed at developing conscious and effective leaders, fostering a collaborative and
customer-centric culture, ensuring we have the right capabilities for both present and future needs, maintaining sustainable
reward and recognition systems, positioning ourselves as an authentic and distinctive employer, and providing meaningful
career and growth opportunities.

are capable of successfully completing their tasks. Having satisfied and motivated employees is key, however as a learning
organization RBHU Group understands that the development of the employees is essential to maintaining high standards.
Working conditions – secure employment
Regarding working conditions, RBHU Group acknowledges their importance for high employee satisfaction. The nature of the
employment relationship can significantly impact health, influencing factors such as stress levels and work-life balance.
Currently, at 95% of RBHU Group's active employees are employed under permanent contracts.
To bring in specialized expertise and manage short-term workforce needs for project-related tasks, RBHU Group may enter
into contracts with non-employees. For cost optimization and sustainability purposes, non-employees are often transitioned to
permanent contracts.
RBHU Group also provides opportunities for internship contracts, initially limited to a maximum period of six months, with the
possibility of extension. While RBHU Group often offers permanent contracts for junior positions to interns, such offers are
subject to business needs and cannot be guaranteed.
RBHU Group complies with all legal requirements regarding working time and recognizes the benefits of flexible working hours.
Flexible working hours help to increase employee satisfaction and have positive effects on health.
Health

Adequate wages
RBHU Group aims to attract and retain a motivated and qualified workforce by providing competitive compensation aligned
with local market trends. The value of work is assessed based on professional knowledge, business perspective, leadership role,
organizational impact, and other job-required competencies. Our job evaluations are conducted using gender-neutral criteria
to prevent any form of discrimination.
Employee involvement
RBHU Group management believes engaged and enabled employees are more motivated and efficient, leading to higher
productivity and better performance. When employees feel engaged and supported in their roles, they experience greater job
satisfaction, which can reduce turnover rate and the costs associated with hiring and training new staff.
Engaged employees are also more likely to contribute ideas and solutions, fostering a culture of innovation and continuous
improvement. By focusing on engagement and enablement, we aim to build a positive, supportive workplace culture that can
attract top talent and enhance the company's reputation.
To ensure employees' voices are heard, we conduct an annual engagement survey. The results are analysed and discussed with
lower managerial levels to identify and address development opportunities. While RBHU Group is committed to fostering
employee engagement and involvement, the effectiveness of these initiatives and their outcomes may vary.

S1-16: Remuneration metrics (pay gap and total remuneration)
On 30 March 2023, the European Parliament adopted Directive 2023/970 on pay transparency, the main objective of which is to
ensure the right of women and men to equal pay for equal work or work of equal value by increasing pay transparency and
institutionalizing enforcement mechanisms related thereto.
Member States are required to transpose the provisions of the Directive into their national laws by 7 June 2026. The Hungarian
legal system has not yet implemented the measures of the Directive but has formulated certain expectations in a
recommendation. The average pay levels between male and female employees were determined based on the methodology
described in point 52 of Hungarian National Bank’s recommendation 4/2022 (IV.8.).

It purely shows the difference of average pay levels between male and female employees excluding Board of Management,
expressed as percentage of the average pay level of male employees. This required approach is a straightforward calculation
without any regression analysis (no inclusion of natural log of wages on gender and other pay factors like experience, location,
education, purchasing power and tenure). Therefore, the ratio has very limited significance in this form.

ESRS 2 SBM-3 material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with
strategy and business model
Information-related impacts
Impacts regarding privacy and cyber security & resilience
A strategy and a framework with guidelines and standards to ensure the protection goals of confidentiality, integrity, and
availability of information and systems are defined, approved and their implementation within the RBHU Group is managed
and monitored. The strategy, the framework of guidelines and standards, as well as the defined technical and organizational
measures to achieve the protection goals are regularly reviewed to appropriately address current threat situations, technical
developments, and external requirements, and to manage and minimize risks that affect the company as well as its customers
and users. 
We are aware of the fact that the positive or negative perceptions of customers and users regarding information security,
resilience, and data protection can impact the trust in the financial sector as well as digital services overall. Therefore essential
for the functioning of the financial market locally or internationally, as well as for meeting the basic needs of customers, end
users, and corporate clients.
The security strategy and measures are regularly reviewed and adjusted to appropriately address identified security threats
and risks.
The following negative impacts could result from security incidents or weaknesses in the information security management
system on individuals, groups of individuals, or society:
· Reputational damage could lead to a loss of trust in financial services or digital products
· Unauthorized access to confidential information and misuse of such information could lead to fraud and financial
losses
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
Separate non-financial statement
151
· Incidents or unavailability of systems and services could lead to legal consequences or fines/penalties
· Unavailability of systems and data could result in customers being unable to use our services.
A solid information security management system ensures trust in financial institutions, a well-functioning financial market, and
digital services provided by the bank. Secure, resilient, and reliable business processes and associated systems reduce the
likelihood and impact of security incidents.
Financial institutions in general are attractive targets for cyberattacks due to the financial assets they manage and the
sensitive customer data they hold.
Attempted attacks and security incidents occur frequently in a large bank (time horizon: short-term). Due to the implemented
measures, only a few of these incidents negatively affect customers. The positive impacts of a secure, resilient, and reliable
company have both immediate and long-term effects on customers, groups of individuals, and society (time horizon: short-
and medium-term).
Both, business activities and business relationships (suppliers, contractors, business partners, etc.) impact information security
risk and potential effects on customers. Therefore, RBHU Group seeks to manage information security risks and reduce impacts
through security measures.
We consider our goal of providing customers with secure, resilient, and reliable services, and ensuring the responsible handling
of personal data, as one of the most important prerequisites for building and maintaining customer relationships.
No specific impacts related to information security and cyber security could be identified for specific groups. A consistently
high level of security is applied to all financial services offered, ensuring the protection of information.
In 2024, 1 low level incident related to information security were reported, no impact on confidentiality, integrity or availability.
Impacts regarding Freedom of expression 
Freedom of Expression is a fundamental human right which plays a crucial role in creating an open space for dialogue, learning
and innovation within RBHU Group. External and internal stakeholders speaking their mind does not only empower customers
to voice complaints and concerns, but also enables the refinement of business strategies and models. This dynamic
strengthens consumer trust and drives long-term success and resilience in a competitive business landscape.
Regarding freedom of expression, i.e. the freedom for our consumers/customers to speak up and to be heard, having a
functioning complaint management system is an important prerequisite. Furthermore, the collection of customer feedback
and a customer satisfaction analysis are needed.
Impacts regarding Access to (quality) information
Access to (quality) information is described as the right to be informed about the quality, quantity, potency, purity, standard,
and price of goods, which is crucial for protecting consumers against unfair trade practices.
We strive to build a digital bank with a human touch. The human touch is our capability to humanize all experiences, by making
them personal, relevant, and rewarding. We aim to enable our customers to manage their financial life and fulfil their financial
needs anywhere, anytime. We assist & educate our customers with the transition to digital self-service across all channels (in
branch, in call centers, in app).
RBHU Group actively promotes an understanding of financial products and services and imparts banking expertise as part of
its day-to-day advisory role. The nature of its core business means it has close links with the subject of financial education, i.e.
the competent handling of money and financial matters, also known as financial literacy.
In order to ensure good quality of information, sufficient training opportunities for the sales staff, with regards to knowledge
and personal responsibility has to be provide.
Bad access and/or bad quality of information can include damage to trust, financial harm to customers, insufficient
competence and risk assessment in the capital market, erroneous investment decisions, specific foreign exchange issues, all
either resulting in financial burdens for customers and/or potential over-indebtedness of private customers.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024

Separate non-financial statement
On the other hand, our positive impacts on consumers involve better comparability of products and services, easier decision-
making, customer education, and reduced uncertainty and complaints. Well informed and well-educated customers are
important for our business.
Financial education is a powerful tool that can help individuals make informed decisions about their money, leading to greater
financial stability and security. By providing our customers with financial tips and resources, we can empower them to take
control of their financial futures. This not only helps them, but also helps our bank by creating more financially stable
customers. Moreover, promoting financial literacy is a key component of responsible banking. 
On the investment side especially, high transparency, such as accurate and complete product labelling including cost
breakdowns, forms the basis for customers to make informed investment decisions. On the loan side, customers´ financial
education and improved comparability of products and services and receiving good explanations of the possible risks
associated with products or services, and appropriate information on topics such as risk reduction also need to be well
understood and are a prerequisite for a customer’s ability to repay a loan.
Both the negative and the positive impacts described above, short and medium term, originate from RBHU Group’s business
model and are inherent to the business of banking and financial services, including asset management, which can have a
significant impact on consumers´ lives.
Access to (quality) information is key to understand the consequences of financial decisions. This means that we have to adapt
our materials for their special needs.
Social inclusion-related impacts
Impacts regarding non-discrimination
We treat all our customers respectfully, acknowledging that there are vulnerable groups who need our special attention like
consumers with impairments who depend on a barrier-free access.
Being financially included has a direct positive impact on vulnerable groups like people with disabilities, low incomes or who are
in financial need, because it makes a great difference for each of them and provides the same chances for all.
Having no access to the financial system could lead to reduced chances and financial disadvantages and end in social
exclusion. 
Private individuals that are likely to be affected by discrimination are categorized as vulnerable group.
Impacts regarding non-discrimination and access to products and services
RBHU Group provides services to around ~450.000 private customers in Hungary, offering a broad product range (e.g. account
packages, payment services, personal loan, mortgage loans and investment products).
By guaranteeing a reliable and secure infrastructure, RBHU Group plays a contributory role in safeguarding the stability and
integrity of the financial system, protecting the digital economy from threats and further reinforcing the trust of its customers.
We leverage technology and financial expertise to innovate and design exceptional digital experiences for all our customers
Our foremost commitment is to deliver unparalleled client experiences and to build a digital bank with a human touch.
In general, digitalization makes it much easier to access products and services. Thus, we strive to remove another barrier to our
products and services.
We treat all our customers respectfully, acknowledging that there are vulnerable groups who need our special attention.
Consumers with impairments who can’t use our products and services because they have no access to the branch need our
support in creating barrier-free access.
Impacts regarding responsible marketing practices
Responsible marketing practices covers marketing communication of products and services through media channels in a way
that first of all meets all legal regulations and is also ethical, transparent, and respectful to customers. This includes avoiding
misleading advertising, ensuring that all claims are truthful and substantiated. The positive impacts of the responsible
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024

153
marketing practices are a trustful brand and a growing customer base, meanwhile negative impacts are customer
dissatisfaction, complaints and authority examinations and fines.
Financial risks
Risks connected to privacy, cyber security and resilience
Failure of the bank to prevent customer privacy breaches could lead to regulatory fines and sanctions for non-compliance with
data protection regulations, as well as expenses relating to lawsuits. Additionally, a loss of trust and credibility as well as
negative media coverage could lead customer losses, which would result in yield losses. Further, expenses could arise relating
to operational costs of investigating breaches, notifying affected customers, and implementing remediation measures. Finally,
customers prefer banks that ensure higher data protection and information security standards.
Risks connected to access to quality information
Failure of the bank to provide access to quality information to customers could lead to regulatory fines and sanctions for non-
compliance with EU consumer protection, as well as expenses relating to lawsuits. Expenses relating to lawsuits could also be
incurred due to product mis-selling or failure to disclose essential product information. 
Additionally, a loss of clients who switch to competitors offering clearer and more reliable information could result in reduced
revenues. Furthermore, failure of the bank to support the financial literacy of all customer groups could lead to a higher
likelihood of customers mismanaging their finances, leading to increased loan defaults and credit losses. Finally, increased
customer service expenses to handle complaints and inquiries due to unclear product information could lead to operational
inefficiencies.

155
consistent access to quality information. Additional requirements are defined for the marketing communication to retail
clients. Furthermore, it specifies what information should be provided for the clients, how performance data should be
presented. Guidelines on Client Categorization, Investor-based and Investment-based Advisory describe the different type of
investment services. The aim of this guideline is to set the principles for the client categorization and the rules of providing
investment advice to clients in compliance with the legal requirement set in the MiFID relevant regulations. The regulation
includes the requirements of MiFID suitability and appropriateness test. The directive specifies how investment advice,
portfolio management should be conducted, taking into account clients' investment objectives, risk tolerance, and
sustainability preferences. Monitoring and assessment of financial instruments within client portfolios are defined, with regular
reporting obligations to clients.

reviews.
These policies align with customer expectations of access to quality information and responsible marketing.
The previously mentioned policies are interconnected to ensure that RBHU Group operates in the best interest of its customers
and adheres to regulatory standards. This commitment is evident in the transparent design and offering of products tailored
to the target group's needs. Additionally, information provided to customers must be clear, fair, and aligned with legal

Through the implementation of the policies RBHU Group respects the  respective legal requirements specified in relevant
national and international regulations, guidelines and laws (MiFIDII, Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/565, Bszt, etc.).
In summary, these refer to organizational requirements for investment firms and the conditions for the exercise of their
activities, and establish minimum standards for conduct rules.
The interests of investors as key stakeholders play a central role in Raiffeisen Bank Zrt’s conflict of interest policy. The conflict
of interest policy aims to avoid conflicts of interest and, where this is not possible, to disclose and resolve them to prevent or
minimize harm to clients. The policies mentioned above describe the consideration given to the interests of key stakeholders
by emphasizing the importance of acting independently and solely in the interest of customers, maintaining the company's
reputation, and ensuring that conflicts of interest are properly managed and disclosed.
The conflict of interest policy of RBHU Group includes measures, in a broader sense, to protect the rights of investors by
ensuring that investor needs are systematically identified and documented. It mandates that sales personnel offer products
that can meet the client's profit expectations with adequate risk. The conflict of interest policy is related to human rights
principles by ensuring that the Bank acts independently and in the best interest of shareholders, maintains transparency, and
upholds accountability. This alignment with human rights principles ensures fair treatment and protection of the rights and
interests of all stakeholders.
It protects the rights and interests of investors, promote sustainable development, and prevent unethical practices such as
greenwashing.
The directive on providing information to clients includes, in a broader sense, obligations to protect the  rights of consumers
and end-users by requiring honest, fair, clear, understandable, and non-misleading information. It demands a balanced
presentation of benefits and risks and considers the target audience to ensure that the information is comprehensible and
clear for the customers addressed. The directive requires that marketing communications do not contradict disclosures made
in the prospectus or on the website, especially regarding sustainable investments. This includes avoiding greenwashing and
accurately representing sustainability-related aspects, which can be viewed as measures to address human rights impacts by
ensuring transparency and honesty towards investors.
The directive on product governance relates to human rights principles by ensuring transparency, fairness, and accountability,
which protect the rights and interests of investors.
The application of product governance focus on product governance, sustainability aspects, compliance, and customer
interaction within the framework of MiFID II, but do not include specific information on human rights impacts and remedial
measures. The accurate, honest, and targeted presentation of information can be broadly viewed as a measure to address
human rights impacts by ensuring transparency and honesty towards investors, given the human right to information access.

S4-3- Processes to remediate impacts and channels for consumers and end-users to
raise concerns
Information – and social inclusion-related remediation processes
If RBHU Group has failed to fully meet customer expectations, consumers and end-users can address their complaints via
various channels. In line with RBHU Group’s internal rules (see also the Customer Complaint Management Policy), all potential
complaints, expressed as dissatisfaction addressed to the bank or its employees, must be examined to determine whether
they meet the definition of a complaint. Negative impacts identified through customer complaint channels must be directed to
the appropriate units in accordance with customer complaint handling procedures. Complaints must be documented
immediately in RBHU Group’s complaint management system, and the person who registered the complaint must be notified
of its receipt and the next steps in handling the complaint. The next step involves consulting the affected department(s) or
employee(s) to determine whether the content of the complaint is objectively justified. The result of this analysis must be
immediately communicated to the person who registered the complaint and documented in the complaint management
system. Additionally, the department responsible for handling the complaint must examine the causes. The Board of Directors
and the Supervisory Board must be informed of the latest developments in complaint management at regular intervals. By the
end of each reporting period, measures to mitigate the root causes of major complaints will be implemented and followed up.

with a high level of risk to customers’ personal data, Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. has processes in place to proactively notify the data
protection authority and affected customers (if applicable according to GDPR). These notifications should typically explain the
nature of the risk, what personal data is affected, and the steps taken to address the issue. This allows the affected
customers to take any necessary precautions.

Management Policy and are directly linked to its principles. Customer-oriented, appropriate handling of complaints is a main
objective of RBHU Group’s Complaint Management Policy. The mentioned implementation, evaluation, and review compared to

The guidelines are organized around four key principles: perceivable (content must be presented in ways that users can
perceive, such as providing text alternatives for non-text content), operable (interface components and navigation must be
operable, meaning all users should be able to interact with and navigate the content, understandable (Information and the
operation of user interface must be understandable, ensuring that content is clear and consistent) and robust (content must
be robust enough to be interpreted reliably by a wide variety of user agents, including assistive technologies). These measures
will ensure that more people will be able to have access to our products and services.
Responsible marketing practices
The objective of the actions taken in relation to responsible marketing is to ensure that all marketing communication comply
with relevant laws and regulations and is also ethical, transparent, and respectful to consumers. Marketing communication
campaign materials are developed with the involvement of the relevant product, segment departments, legal and compliance
departments (if necessary) and final advertising materials are approved by legal department. In case of a regulatory
examination all required information is collected and delivered to authorities

Privacy protection targets
In its Data Protection Policy, Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. has established data privacy targets for GDPR compliance. The aim is to have
a data privacy framework in place that guarantees the prompt handling of data subject requests (in the followings: DSR),
ensures proactive data breach prevention through monitoring and awareness training for employees, and maintains GDPR
compliance to protect customer data and avoid regulatory penalties.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024

Separate non-financial statement
Another goal is to optimize the processes related to DSR requests and to avoid redundancies in processes and documentation
in the event of data breaches.
By managing these processes, it should be ensured that no fines or reputational damage occur.
Also, Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. records the number and types of DSR requests (ie. access, erasure, rectification). In the event of data
breach, Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. monitors the number of data breaches and classifies them by type (e.g., unauthorized access).
Targets for information and cyber security
RBHU Group’s information and cyber security department reviews and updates security standards regularly. The information
and cyber security target is tracked via the security requirements assessment (SRA) which monitors the implementation status
of the security requirements defined within the group information and cyber security policy and standards framework. The
target is therefore in direct relation to the group information and cyber security policy.
The target is assessed annually on RBI and the aim is to have implemented the necessary security requirements. Changes are
tracked and reported to the group security committee and supervisory board. The percentage figure of the target describes
the security requirements implemented in the RBHU Group that are prescribed in the RBI Group information and cyber security
policy and standards framework.
Different tests to assess the effectiveness of security processes and measures are performed.  Additionally, information is
gathered about (potential) threats concerning RBI’s customers, end-users and itself continuously. Lessons learned, treatment
measures and actions are derived from performed tests, exercises, assessments, incidents, near misses and the gained threat
intelligence. The goal is to continuously improve the technical and organizational protection mechanisms to provide secure and
resilient products and to protect customers and end-user as well as their information. Potentially negative impacts should be
prevented as good as possible.
When setting targets, the impact of our operations on consumers and end-users, is considered, but the consumers are not
actively involved in the target setting and its performance tracking. In addition, requirements and obligations by regulators are
also taken into account when setting targets.
Freedom of expression
The overall target of Complaint Management is to guarantee/safeguard the timely and accurate handling of all customer
complaints. At least once per year, complaint root causes are identified and analysed by business units and consumer
protection team. In relation to the aforementioned root causes, mitigation measures are defined and subsequently integrated
during the upcoming reporting year on an ongoing basis in order to reduce negative impacts, advance positive impacts on
customers and to mitigate material risks and facilitate opportunities.
Mitigation measures for complaint root causes are considered targets as outlined in RBI’s Group complaint management policy
and stand in direct relationship with its goals and principles. Providing customer-centric expert handling on complaints
constitutes a key objective of RBI Group’s complaint management policy, the aforementioned year-to-year implementation,
measurement and review on respectively of mitigation measures directly contributes to this goal. Mitigation measures are also
a relative target linked to RBHU Group’s processes and products.
RBHU Group takes every complaint brought to its attention seriously. Subsequently, RBHU Group does not differentiate on
customers or their backgrounds while simultaneously specifically protecting vulnerable customers and other end-to-end users.
Furthermore, RBI employees receive special training on non-discrimination.
Access to quality information and responsible marketing practices
By adhering to the existing regulations, we aim to minimize complaints or issues related to access to quality information and
responsible marketing practices.
Practices to provide access to quality information should lead to clearer and easier understanding of our products and
services, which should lead to an increase in customer satisfaction.

Governance information
Business conduct
G1-1: Corporate culture
Introduction
Responsible and transparent business management and culture are key values in RBHU Group. They go back to the traditional
Raiffeisen values as defined by Wilhelm Friedrich Raiffeisen in the 19th century, and still build the basis of RBHU Group’s Code of
Conduct, which is identical to the RBI Group Code of Conduct.
RBHU Group’s commitment is based on good corporate governance and on global standards (including the United Nations
Global Compact and UNEP FI Principles for Responsible Banking) for responsible business practices, active and transparent
management of its operations, careful risk management and due diligence, a functioning compliance including anti-bribery
and corruption, anti-money laundering, and tax compliance as well as responsible supplier management.
Additional key elements of creating and maintaining RBHU Group’s corporate culture is its zero-tolerance policy e.g., against
harassment and discrimination. Also, whistleblowing protection measures are implemented in accordance with the EU Directive
on the protection of persons who report breaches of Union law (Directive (EU) 2019/1937) and the Act XXV of 2023 on
Complaints and Public Interest Disclosures, and on the Rules of Whistleblowing Notifications in Hungary.
RBI’s foundation: The philosophy of Friedrich Wilhelm Raiffeisen (1818-1888)
In the 19th century, Friedrich Wilhelm Raiffeisen simplified the idea of a cooperative down to one basic principle: In unity lies
strength. This idea is backed by the values of helping others to help themselves, social solidarity, charity, communality,
sustainability, and responsibility for others. RBHU Group continues to build on these values. They are visible in RBHU Group’s and
the RBI Group’s key strategies and decisions and expressed in a strong brand that places an emphasis on the principles of
identity, self-administration, economic solidarity, sustainability, and subsidiarity.
RBI Code of Conduct [Code of conduct]
The Code of Conduct is based on F.W. Philosophy. It forms the foundation of RBHU Group’s corporate culture and is guiding its
daily actions with internal and external stakeholders. It defines RBHU Group’s corporate values, ethical principles, and reflects
RBHU Group’s and the whole RBI Group’s values of collaboration, proactivity, learning and responsibility. The Code of Conduct
should ensure that RBHU Group’s behaviour in business dealings and ethical matters is compliant with RBHU Group’s high
standards.
The Code of Conduct is a binding regulatory framework to comply with laws and international standards. It defines RBHU
Group’s standards on customer / Investor / Employee Relations, Compliance with laws and regulations, combating against
financial crime, and on RBHU Group’s social and environmental responsibility and complying with environmental laws to the
best of RBHU Group’s knowledge and ability. In particular, it includes laws supporting the fight against money laundering and
terrorist financing, fraud, corruption and bribery, insider trading and market abuse. Furthermore, avoiding conflicts of interest,
complying with economic sanctions and embargoes, adhering to data protection standards and other forms of critical
business practices, including respect for the fundamental rights of employees.
In addition, the Code of Conduct consciously goes beyond formal and legally ordained conduct and describes how RBHU Group
deals with customers, business partners and employees.
The Code of Conduct applies to all employees of RBHU Group and its subsidiaries. It is published in Hungarian and across the
RBI Group in English as well as in the respective national languages on the RBI websites. It is available to all the employees of
RBHU Group and subsidiaries in the internal regulation system and it is the first document that new hires should read. To
ensure the awareness of the Code of Conduct principles, all employees must periodically complete an e-learning on the Code
of Conduct basics. In addition, all employees must sign a compliance statement in which they commit to observe the Code of
Conduct, which includes the disclosure and regular updating of statements on conflicts of interest.
External persons such as contractors, suppliers, and service providers, and acting for or providing services on behalf of RBHU
Group as well as all other business partners, must commit to RBHU Group’s Code of Conduct by accepting the supplier Code of
Conduct as part of the contractual relationship.
The pillars for ethical dealings
The Code of Conduct defines six pillars of RBHU Group’s standard for ethical dealings:
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
Separate non-financial statement
171
· Customer Relations
· ·Investor Relations
· Employee Relations
· Compliance with laws and regulations
· Combating against financial crime
· Social and environmental responsibility
Social and environmental responsibility
It is RBHU Group’s understanding that its business may have an important effect on each pillar of sustainability: in the
economic sphere, in society and on the environment. This is reflected according to the RBI Group’s sustainability strategy as a
responsible banker, a fair partner and an engaged corporate citizen. RBHU Group therefore strives to achieve long term
profitable business while avoiding, amongst others, social and environmental harm by related proper due diligence practices.
Furthermore, RBHU Group wants to contribute to the improvement of environmental protection and social standards.
Human rights
RBHU Group is aware of specific industries (in particular nuclear, gambling and defence sectors) which due to their sensitivity
have impacts to human rights. In respect of these industries, the specific policies are made available internally.
RBHU Group respects and supports the protection of human rights stipulated in the European Convention on Human Rights, the
UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights as well as the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. RBHU Group
seeks not to be involved in business with products that are intended to be used for abolition of demonstrations, political
unrest, or other violations of human rights. Any involvement in the controversial weapons (nuclear, biological, chemical
weapons, blinding laser weapons, anti-personnel mines, cluster munitions, depleted uranium ammunition, incendiary weapons,
non-detectable fragments) are strictly forbidden by RBHU Group.
Diversity and inclusion
We believe that embracing diversity enriches perspectives, positively impacting business decisions and outcomes. RBHU Group
strives to create an inclusive workplace that establishes conditions and frameworks equally attractive and beneficial to all
employees, RBHU Group is actively committed to ensuring equal opportunities for all employees, regardless of age, gender,
nationality, social origin, sexual orientation and identity, disability, or religion or belief. The importance of diversity and inclusion
is also shown in the RBHU Group Code of Conduct.
Corporate governance
Corporate governance refers to the system of rules, practices, and processes by which a corporation is directed and controlled.
It involves balancing the interests of stakeholders, including shareholders, management, and customers.
At RBHU Group, corporate governance includes regulations set by legislators and the consideration of shareholder interests,
guiding leadership under the Management Board and the Board of Directors. The aim is responsible, transparent management
focused on long-term value, with key principles including efficient collaboration, safeguarding shareholder interests, and open
communication.
RBHU Group adheres to various international and local legal provisions, supported by its Code of Conduct for sustainable
governance and social responsibility. RBHU Group’s operations are also guided by the recommendations of the National Bank
of Hungary and the RBI Group's policies. These regulations are collectively translated into RBHU Group’s own internal policies,
which are regularly revised. The policies are available to all employees in RBHU Group’s internal system.
These regulations are collectively translated into RBHU Group’s own internal policies, which are regularly revised. The policies
are available to all employees in RBHU Group’s internal system.
Anti-bribery & corruption
RBHU Group has implemented the Policy on Anti-Bribery & Corruption of Raiffeisen Bank and its subsidiaries with the annexes
on Gift, invitation, donations, support, and sponsorship management and the Compliance Training Strategy. RBHU Group
believes that bribery and corruption are crimes that require international action in both the private and public sectors.
Combating all forms of bribery and corruption requires a comprehensive approach involving all stakeholders, with strong
private and public partnerships, including the cooperation and support of financial institutions. The risk of bribery and
corruption is particularly significant for financial institutions, as it can negatively impact their reputation, thereby directly and/
or indirectly affecting their profitability and shareholder value.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024

Separate non-financial statement
The responsibility for the policy is with General Compliance Management Team.
The scope of the policy applies to all employees of the RBHU Group and its subsidiaries and to all individuals in any other
employment relationship with the RBHU Group and its subsidiaries.
The policy is consistent with the United National Convention against Corruption. The legal basis of the policy for RBHU Group
are applicable laws, i.e., Act CCXXXVII of 2013 on Credit Institutions and Financial Enterprises (Hpt.); Act C of 2012 on the Criminal
Code; Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (June 26, 2013) on prudential requirements for
credit institutions and investment firms and amending Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 and Act LIII of 2017 on the Prevention and
Combating of Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing in the versions currently applicable, as well as further guidelines and
governance principles which were considered.
The policy outlines key duties and responsibilities of employees, Compliance and management functions, defines bribery and
corruption risks and describes organizational anti-bribery and corruption standards in RBHU Group. Every employee receives
annual anti-bribery and corruption training, which may vary in depth depending on their job description. RBHU Group places
great importance on ensuring that 100% of its employees receive anti-corruption and bribery training.

The policy aligns with RBI’s Group Policy. A condensed overview of RBI Group’s Anti-Bribery and Corruption program is
accessible to stakeholders on RBI’s homepage.
RBHU Group is politically neutral, does not make any political contribution and aims to refrain from any involvement with
political movements.
Whistleblowing
The purpose of the Whistleblowing reporting system is to encourage employees, former employees of RBHU Group and its
subsidiaries, individuals in other contractual employment relationships with RBHU Group and its subsidiaries, as well as
companies or individuals in contractual relationships with RBHU Group and its subsidiaries, to report if they observe illegal or
suspected illegal acts, omissions, internal misconduct, or serious violations of the principles outlined in the Code of Conduct.
The following (non-exhaustive) list includes violations and other misconducts that can be reported through the Whistleblowing
system:
· Bribery, corruption
· Fraud, theft
· Conflicts of interest
· Workplace harassment, discrimination
· Other violations of the Code of Conduct.
· Suspected cases of money laundering,
· violations of financial sanctions regulations;
· Market manipulation, insider trading;
· Misuse of personal data;
· Abuses related to sensitive business assignments.
RBI provides a whistleblowing platform (operated by an external service provider) that enables anonymous electronic
reporting. Alternatively, employees and external stakeholders can use other channels to report Code of Conduct violations (e.g.,
telephone, email, postal letter, personal meeting). RBHU Group has established five distinct channels to ensure that all
individuals can effortlessly report any violations. These channels are designed to provide ease of access and convenience for
reporting, thereby fostering a culture of transparency and accountability.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
Separate non-financial statement
173
In cases where someone wishes to report misconduct involving the Compliance Department or the Board of Management, they
can utilize the RBI whistleblowing platform. This platform ensures that such reports are directed to the RBI instead of the RBHU
Group. By leveraging these channels, the organization demonstrates its commitment to maintaining high standards of
compliance and ethical conduct. RBHU Group regularly communicates these mechanisms to its employees through training
programs and all staff e-mails.
All reports are processed in accordance with the internal compliance investigation mechanism. RBHU Group’s zero-tolerance
policy derived from the Code of Conduct (e.g., against harassment and discrimination) ensures that all allegations are taken
seriously. The policy emphasizes that the whistleblower will not face any adverse discrimination for making a report in good
faith. RBHU Group treats reports made in good faith as constructive feedback and informs the Board of recurring or systemic
issues. Both the whistleblower and the person implicated in the report have the right to express their opinions and positions
regarding the matter and present evidence supporting their views. The policy ensures that the related investigation is
conducted fairly, without influence, and impartially in all cases.
All reports are treated as confidential and specific whistleblowing protection measures are implemented in accordance with
the EU Directive on the protection of persons who report breaches of Union law (Directive (EU) 2019/1937) and the Act XXV of
2023 on Complaints, Public Interest Disclosures, and Rules Related to Whistleblowing.
If violations are detected, RBHU Group imposes appropriate risk-based actions including disciplinary ones, in accordance with
internal group policy. RBHU Group constantly analyses its rules and regulations to mitigate the risks for the future as much as
possible.
The Compliance Department provides quarterly updates to both the Board of Directors and Group Compliance on the number,
type, and outcome of the reports received. If recurring or systemic internal misconduct is identified based on the content and
location of the reports, the Compliance Department will also report the cause and provide associated recommendations. The
Chief Compliance Officer in case of necessity escalates specific material cases to the highest management bodies on an ad
hoc basis.
Training & awareness
RBHU Group Compliance training policy components and structure
RBHU Group considers consistent and targeted training to be a core element of establishing a compliant corporate culture. The
Compliance Training Strategy is the annex of the Policy on Anti-Bribery & Corruption of Raiffeisen Bank and its subsidiaries. The
structured training program provides periodical trainings to all levels of expertise and on various business conduct related
subject matters, including but not only Code of Conduct, anti-bribery & corruption, conflict of interest, whistleblowing, anti-
money laundering and counter terrorist financing.
All employees must complete an annual training on a minimum standard of compliance related topics to refresh their existing
knowledge and to be informed about relevant changes and developments. All new RBHU Group employees must complete
training courses on the topic of compliance. In particular, these cover aspects of preventing economic crime (especially
combating money laundering and the financing of terrorism, international sanctions and embargoes, and corruption
prevention), market abuse and conflicts of interest, as well as appropriate measures and rules concerning internal reporting
obligations. The attendance is mandatory for all employees, recorded and monitored on a continuous basis. 
The content of the trainings is structured into different modules and tailored to employees’ specific roles and responsibilities,
the compliance risk exposure, and the relevant regulatory requirements. Updates to the training materials are triggered by
new laws and regulations, products, and customer groups or when internal procedures change. The modules are also offered
as interactive trainings with testing components to ensure the effectiveness of the trainings.  
G1-2: Management of relationships with suppliers
RBHU Group is conscious of its position in the finance industry in Hungary. RBHU Group has about 1500 suppliers mainly in IT,
facility management, consulting services and marketing. Thus, the company plays a significant role as a customer for
businesses in these sectors in their respective domestic markets. RBHU Group has set itself the goal of exploiting the potential
of its role as customer, by setting high environmental and social principles for a contractual relationship and incorporating
sustainability criteria when selecting suppliers.
Being a fair partner for RBHU Group’s suppliers and demanding fairness towards their employees and suppliers as well as
sustainable behaviour, not only safeguards RBHU Group’s operational banking activities. RBHU Group sees it as an opportunity
to make a positive contribution to society and the environment. RBHU Group uses RBI’s Human Rights Policy which also
underlines the commitment towards Human Rights in the supply chain through obligating its suppliers to conduct their
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
174
Separate non-financial statement
business in line with the RBI Group Supplier Code of Conduct and together with RBHU Group’s top suppliers RBHU Group works
to reduce emissions together.
Fair partnership with its suppliers also includes fair payment terms and the goal of complying with contractually agreed
payment terms. Further information regarding payment practices is provided in chapter G1-6 Payment practices.
All RBHU Group suppliers must comply with the RBI Group Supplier Code of Conduct and its principles, which, among other
considerations, include compliance with the law, the prohibition of corruption and bribery, respect for the fundamental rights
of employees and environmental regulations. The Supplier Code of Conduct is included on a RBI Group-wide basis in contracts
agreed with suppliers. In exceptional cases, supplier codes of conduct with comparable content are accepted as part of the
contract. The principles defined in the Supplier Code of Conduct are to be regarded as a minimum level for environmental and
social criteria, based on the various regulations and directives with which RBHU Group has undertaken to comply. They are a
material prerequisite to becoming a supplier to RBHU Group.
The Supplier Code of Conduct helps to ensure that RBHU Group suppliers adhere to important environmental and social criteria.
Moreover, in the event of the principles being breached, RBHU Group has the right to terminate the contractual relationship
with the supplier. This approach highlights compliance with selected social and environmental standards as a fundamental
requirement for working with us.
Further measures include considering the progress made in relation to sustainability in the selection of suppliers and the
annual survey of RBHU Group’s top (strategic and significant) suppliers. This will lead to even higher standards being expected
by the suppliers and additionally heighten these companies‘ responsibility to society and the environment.  If the supplier failed
to meet its obligations, RBHU Group would terminate the contractual relationship.
As part of the supplier management process, RBHU Group’s top (strategic and significant) suppliers are surveyed annually on
topics including environmental and/or socially relevant certificates for the company along with products and/or services
purchased by RBHU Group, proceedings due to the infringement of environmental regulations, and indicators on emissions
(CO2e).
RBHU Group’s procurement is convinced that suppliers with a high level of commitment to their social and environmental
business practices are stable partners and lower the risk of supplier failures, high workforce fluctuation and reputational
damage, as well as ensuring compliance with regulatory provisions. Establishing a fair partnership with suppliers also fosters
stability and provides a sound basis for the company’s business operations.
G1-3: Prevention and detection of corruption and bribery
Coverage of employees by anti-corruption training by employee categories
Anti-money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism
RBHU Group has established a comprehensive Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (CFT)
policy, designed to effectively address, and mitigate related regulatory, reputational, and compliance risks. This policy is in full
alignment with applicable local and international regulations, including the recommendations set forth by the Financial Action
Task Force (FATF), ensuring that it applies to all areas under the bank’s responsibility. The policy, approved by the Board of
Management, outlines clear measures for identifying, assessing, and mitigating money laundering and terrorism financing risks
and is subject to continuous monitoring, with at least an annual review.
The policy is applicable to all employees of RBHU Group and its subsidiaries, requiring strict adherence to relevant laws,
regulations, and internal procedures. Inadequate management of AML/CFT risks could lead to increased criminal activity,
damaging public safety and the economy. On the other hand, effective risk management strengthens public trust, enhances
the bank’s reputation, and fosters strong business relationships, while minimizing legal, regulatory, and reputational risks.
Key actions implemented as part of the AML/CFT policy include:
· Appointment of an AML/CFT officer who reports directly to senior management
· Risk-based identification and classification of customers and products, alongside tailored due diligence
processes
· Ongoing customer due diligence, including identification of Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs) and beneficial
owners, with enhanced scrutiny and management approval for high-risk customers, including those linked to
PEPs or high-risk jurisdictions
· Additional due diligence for companies incorporated in offshore jurisdictions
· Continuous monitoring of customer data, transactions, and accounts, including sanctions screening
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
Separate non-financial statement
175
· Reporting of suspicious activities to relevant authorities, such as the FIU
· Active cooperation and information exchange with national and international authorities
· Robust internal controls, periodic internal and external audits, and evaluations
· Regular training and awareness programs for staff, including in-person, e-learning, and micro-learning modules
· Active participation in industry initiatives and working groups at national, European, and international levels
contributing to the development of legal and regulatory standards.
RBHU Group acknowledges that combating money laundering and terrorism financing is an ongoing process that requires
continuous adaptation to emerging risks and regulatory changes. This commitment ensures that RBHU Group engages only
with reputable customers involved in legitimate business activities, with funds originating from lawful sources. By upholding
these standards, RBHU Group mitigates compliance risks, strengthens its reputation, and builds trust with stakeholders.
G1-4: Incidents of corruption or bribery
All bribery and corruptions suspicions are processed in accordance with RBHU Group’s internal compliance investigation and
reporting mechanism and adequate internal sanctions and disciplinary measures, i.e., dismissal of employees, irrespective to
criminal law sanctions and legal consequences were adequately applied and enforced.
Bribery and corruption cases are investigated by the Compliance Department. RBHU Group has zero tolerance policy for bribery
and corruption. The Compliance Officer’s independence is guaranteed by the internal regulations. The Compliance Officer
reports directly to the CEO and organizationally falls under the direct authority of the CEO. In executing their duties, the
Compliance Officer is independent of individuals responsible for business matters and is not obligated to follow their directives.
The Compliance Officer manages the Compliance department and its activities according to the interests of the RBHU Group
and in accordance with the law, aiming to preserve the integrity of the RBHU Group and the market.
No member of the management, the Board of Directors, or the Supervisory Board may issue instructions to the Compliance
Department that would prevent it from conducting any investigation it deems necessary, nor may they assign additional tasks
to such an extent that it would hinder the effective operation of the compliance function.
In cases where someone wishes to report misconduct involving the Compliance Department or the Board of Management, they
can utilize the RBI whistleblowing platform. This platform ensures that such reports are directed to the RBI instead of the RBHU
Group. By leveraging these channels, the organization demonstrates its commitment to maintaining high standards of
compliance and ethical conduct. RBHU Group regularly communicates these mechanisms to its employees through training
programs and all staff e-mails.
Incidents of corruption or bribery in 2024:
· Number of convictions for violation of anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws: 0
· Amount in € millions of fines for violation of anti-corruption and anti- bribery laws: 0
In 2024 all of the staff (including the Management) received anti-corruption and bribery training in the framework of the
Compliance e-learning.
G1-6 Payment practices
RBHU Group is conscious of its customer in its home market Hungary and CEE and committed to be a fair partner for its
suppliers. This includes fair payment terms and the objective to contractual agreed payment.

respective employees are advised to consider the size and financial situation of the supplier when processing the invoices.
RBHU Group has strict procedures and compliance measures to be followed when engaging third parties. A KYBP (Know Your
Business Partner) check is conducted by the Compliance Department to ensure that all third parties meet the required
standards and do not pose any compliance risks. Additionally, every contract includes the Supplier's Code of Conduct as a
mandatory annex. This ensures that all suppliers are aware of and adhere to RBHU Group's ethical standards and compliance
requirements.

Separate financial statements
II. Notes to the financial
statements
(1) General information
Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. (‘the Bank’) commenced its operations in 1987 as a commercial bank domiciled in Hungary. The Bank’s
registered office is 1133 Budapest, Váci út 116-118.
The website of the Bank is available at:
The Bank holds a full commercial banking license issued by the National Bank of Hungary (NBH) and carries on a wide range of
financial activities.
The Bank is controlled by Raiffeisen CEE Region Holding GmbH. The ultimate parent company of the banking group is Raiffeisen
Bank International A.G. (RBI).
Apart from the financial statements, the Bank also prepares and discloses consolidated financial statements for the Bank and
its subsidiaries (together referred to as the ‘Group’) in accordance with the Hungarian Accounting Law. The website of the
financial statements can be found at:
Zeljko Obradovic, Chief Financial Officer (availability: 1133 Budapest, Váci út 116-118.) and Tibor Gáspárr, Head of Accounting
Department are obliged to sign these financial statements. Tibor Gáspár is entitled to perform bookkeeping services
(registration number: 168480, availability: 1133 Budapest, Váci út 116-118.)
(2) Basis of preparation
The Bank's separate financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
(2.1) Statement of compliance
As of the financial year starting from 1 January 2017, Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. – in line with the Act of Credit Institutions and
Financial Enterprises – decided to apply international accounting standards also for the purposes of preparing separate
financial statements of the Bank in accordance with section 177 (55) of Hungarian Accounting Law (hereinafter ‘HAL’). The Bank
has applied International Financial Reporting Standards for the first time in its separate financial statements as at the opening
balance sheet date of 1 January 2016. The separate financial statements of the Bank have been prepared in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRSs’) as adopted by the European Union.
IFRSs comprise accounting standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (‘IASB’) and its predecessor body
and interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee and its predecessor body.
Due to the technical limitations inherent to the block-tagging of the consolidated financial statements according to the
European single electronic format, the content of certain tags of the notes may not be rendered identically to the
accompanying consolidated financial statements.
These separate financial statements were authorised by the Board for issue on 27 March 2025.
(2.2) Basis of measurement
These separate financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for the following:
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
Separate financial statements
8
· financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value;
· financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are measured at fair value;
· financial assets and liabilities designated in qualifying fair value hedge relationships are measured at amortised cost
adjusted with fair value changes attributable to the hedged risk;
· all other financial assets and liabilities and all non-financial assets and liabilities are stated at amortised cost or – if
applicable –, at cost less accumulated depreciation and/or impairment losses.
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses, in accordance with accounting principles. Actual results may
differ from these estimates.
The management aligns the selection, development, application and disclosure of critical accounting policies and accounting
estimates with the Supervisory Board of the Bank.
Significant areas of estimation uncertainty are expected credit loss described in note (6) Financial risk management and the
determination of fair value described in note (42) Determination of fair value. Sustainability-related estimates are included in
note  (6) Financial risk management.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in
the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.
(2.3) Functional and presentation currency
These financial statements are presented in Hungarian Forints, which is the Bank’s functional currency. Except as indicated,
financial information is presented in Hungarian Forints rounded to the nearest million.
(3) Changes in accounting policies
Amendments to standards and interpretations first applied in 2024 had no or insignificant effect on the Bank’s separate
financial statements.
(4) Significant accounting policies
Accounting policies are the specific principles, bases, conventions, rules and practices adopted by the Bank in preparing and
presenting financial statements. The accounting policies set out below have been consistently applied to all the periods
presented in the financial statements.
(4.1) Presentation of financial statements
These financial statements include the separate financial statements of the Bank.
(4.2) Foreign currency transactions
Items included in the financial statements of the Bank are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment
in which the Bank operates (‘the functional currency’).
Transactions executed in a currency other than the functional currency are considered to be foreign currency transactions.
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated to Hungarian Forint at
exchange rates at that date as published by the National Bank of Hungary.
The foreign exchange gain or loss on monetary items is the difference between amortised cost in the functional currency at
the beginning of the period, adjusted by effective interest and payments during the period, and the amortised cost in foreign
currency translated at the exchange rate at the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies that are measured at fair value are translated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date that the
fair value was determined.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
9
Separate financial statements
Foreign currency differences arising on translation are recognised in profit or loss, except for differences arising on the
translation of equity investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, which are recognised in other
comprehensive income as part of the fair value measurement.
(4.3) Intangible fixed assets
Intangible assets are identifiable non-monetary assets without physical substance held for the purpose of providing services or
for administration purposes.
Intangible fixed assets that have a finite useful life are measured initially at cost and subsequently carried at cost less any
accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. The asset is tested for impairment by comparing its
recoverable amount, determined in accordance with IAS 36, with its carrying amount, and recognising any excess of the
carrying amount over the recoverable amount as an impairment loss.
Other intangible fixed assets are amortised using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life not exceeding 6
years from the date when the asset is available for use. The amortisation shall cease at the earlier of the date when the asset
is classified as held for sale (or included in a disposal group that is classified as held for sale) in accordance with IFRS 5, and the
date when the asset is derecognised. Amortisation methods and useful lives are reviewed at each financial year-end and
adjusted if appropriate.
Personnel expenses incurred during developing intangible assets are capitalised and amortised. Subsequent other expenditure
is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other
expenditures are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.
(4.4) Tangible fixed assets
Owner occupied property
Items of property and equipment, including leasehold improvements, are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and
impairment losses.
Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. Cost of maintenance and repairs are
recognised in profit or loss as incurred. Major improvements of an item of property and equipment are recognised in the
carrying amount of those items if it is probable that associated future economic benefits will flow to the Bank and related
costs can be measured reliably.
Depreciation is allocated over the estimated useful life of the asset using the straight-line method and is included in line item
‘Depreciation and amortisation’ in the statement of profit or loss.
The estimated useful lives of individual categories of assets are as follows:
· properties (freehold): 50 years;
· properties (leasehold): the contractual terms of the leasehold are considered;
· equipment: 3-7 years.
Freehold land is not depreciated.
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year-end and adjusted if appropriate.
Items of property and equipment are subject to an impairment review if there are events or changes in circumstances which
indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
Gains/losses on disposal of an item of property and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with
the carrying amount of property and equipment, and are recognised net in line items ‘Other operating income’ or ‘Other
operating expenses’ in the statement of profit or loss.
Leased assets
At inception of a contract, the Bank in accordance with IFRS 16 assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract
is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange
for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Bank uses the
definition of a lease in IFRS 16. This policy is applied to contracts entered into (or modified) on or after 1 January 2019.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
Separate financial statements
10
The Bank applies the practical expedients allowed by IFRS 16 to short-term leases and to leases where the underlying asset is a
low-value asset. The Bank recognises the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis
over the lease term.
The Bank acting as a lessee
For contracts that contain in addition to one lease component one or more lease or non-lease components the Bank as a
lessee allocates consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of the relative standalone selling price of
the lease component and the aggregate standalone selling price of the non-lease components.
The Bank as a lessee recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the commencement date of the lease term. The
right-of-use asset is initially recognised at cost, which comprises the initially recognised amount of the lease liability, any lease
payments made at or before the commencement date of the lease term minus any lease incentives received, the Bank’s initial
direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle the underlying asset and to restore the underlying asset to the
condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease.
The Bank as a lessee subsequently measures the right-of-use asset applying the cost model less any accumulated
depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses and adjusted for any reassessment of the lease liability.
The Bank as a lessee measures the lease liability at the commencement date of the lease term at the present value of the
lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date. The lease payments are discounted using the incremental
borrowing rate of the lessee, which is a base rate derived from interest rate swap curves in the currency of the respective lease
contracts increased with a margin derived from unsecured and liquid (traded) bonds of European banks published by
Bloomberg.
At the commencement date of the lease term the lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise
the following payments for the right to use the underlying asset during the lease term that are not paid at the commencement
date:
· fixed payments, less any lease incentives receivable;
· variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the
commencement date;
· amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under a residual value guarantee;
· the exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option; and
· penalties for early termination of the lease if the lease term reflects the exercise of an early termination option by
the lessee.
The lease liability is subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
The lease liabilities are remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments. It can arise from a change in an index or
rate used for determining the lease payments, from a change in the estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a
residual value guarantee, from the Bank’s changing its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or
termination option or from the revision of fixed lease payment.
The Bank records the amount of remeasurement of the lease liability as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the right-of-
use asset. In case the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero and further reduction shall be made
due to the remeasurement of the lease liability, the remaining reduction is recorded in profit or loss.
The Bank presents right-of-use assets in ‘Tangible fixed assets’ and lease liabilities in ‘Financial liabilities measured at
amortised cost’ in the statement of financial position.
Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
The Bank has elected not to apply the requirements of the standard to short-term leases and to leases where the underlying
asset is a low-value asset. The Bank recognises the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on the
straight-line basis over the lease term.
To the net investment in a lease, the derecognition and impairment requirements of IFRS 9 standard are applied.

(4.5) Assets obtained against receivables
If the Bank has mortgages registered on the collateralised property pledged as collateral, it is entitled to sell it with or without
a court resolution, under a sales procedure conducted on its own behalf. The property may also be subject to forced sale if the
owner is a company subject to liquidation procedure.
If the Bank has a purchase right over the property, the Bank’s claim may be enforced against the property. In this case, the
Bank is entitled to purchase the property at the purchase price determined in the option contract and to offset the purchase
price against its claim or to assign a third party to exercise the right of purchase and to offset the purchase price paid by the
third party against its claim.
Assets of which the Bank takes possession upon resigning credit transactions are valued at a price determined by an expert. In
case of loan contracts, impairment losses are recognised for the assets repossessed if the fair value is lower than the carrying
amount.
These assets and their impairment loss allowance are recognised in the statement of financial position as 'Other assets' and in
the statement of profit or loss as 'Other operating expenses', the amount of the reversal is reported as 'Other operating
income'.
(4.6) Investments
The Bank reports equity instruments as shares that are acquired in accordance with the Bank long-term strategic goals, plans
and business policies. Shares and other ownership interests acquired this way may include subsidiaries, associates and other
investments.
A subsidiary is an entity which is controlled by the Bank, in the sense that, the parent company is entitled to the variable
positive returns generated by the investee, bears the consequences of the negative returns and is able to control its operations
and thus influence returns through its decisions.
An associate is an entity over which the Bank has significant influence without having control. The Bank had no such
participations in 2024 and 2023.
The Bank's interests over which it has at least a significant influence are disclosed under ‘Investments in subsidiaries’. The Bank
recognises these investments at cost - using the treatment allowed by IAS 27 - less accumulated impairment losses, if required.
If impairment loss or other profit or loss item (e.g., reduction of capital) is recognised during the time of holding the investment,
it is recognized against other comprehensive income.
Non-trading equity instruments over which the Bank has neither joint control nor significant influence are presented in
Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income’.
(4.7) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include notes and cash on hand, unrestricted balances held with central banks and highly liquid
financial assets with original maturities of less than three months, which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in their fair
value, and are used by the Bank in the management of its short-term commitments.
Cash and cash equivalents are carried at amortised cost in the statement of financial position and are presented as ’ Cash,
cash balances at central banks and other demand deposits’ in the statement of financial position.
Classification of the mandatory reserve as cash is explained in more detail in note (19) Cash, cash balances at central banks
and other demand deposits.
(4.8) Determination of fair value
The Bank’s accounting policies and a number of disclosures require the determination of fair value of financial assets and
liabilities. Fair value is determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the following methods.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date.
Subsequent to initial recognition, the fair value of financial instruments that are quoted in active markets are measured at fair
value based on bid prices for assets held and ask prices for liabilities issued. When observable prices are not available, fair
value is determined by using valuation techniques which refer to observable market data. These include comparison with
similar instruments where observable market prices exist, discounted cash flow analysis, option pricing models and other
valuation techniques commonly used by market participants. For financial instruments, fair value may be determined in whole
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
Separate financial statements
12
or in part using valuation techniques based on assumptions that are not supported by prices from current market transactions
or observable market data.
The determination of fair value assumes that the sale or disposal of the asset occurs on the primary market for the asset or
liability or, lacking that, on the most favourable market for the asset or liability.
The primary market is the market with the highest volume and activity level for the asset or liability being valued.
The most favourable market is the market that maximises the amount that would be received for the sale of the asset or
minimises the amount that would be paid for the transfer of the liability after considering transaction costs and shipping
costs.
More information about the determination of fair value is in note (42) Determination of fair value.
(4.9) Financial instruments
Recognition and initial measurement
For regular way purchases and sales of financial assets, the Bank applies trade date accounting, i.e., recognition when the Bank
is committed to the purchase or sale of the asset. Regular way purchase or sale is a purchase or sale of an asset based on a
contract whose terms require delivering the asset within the time frame established by conventions and regulations in the
market.
All other financial asset and liability (including financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss) is
recognised when the Bank becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument e.g., receivables arising from loans to
banks or clients are recognised when the loan is disbursed.
At initial recognition, the Bank measures the financial assets or liabilities at their fair value plus or minus, in the case of a
financial asset or liability not measured at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to
the acquisition or issue of the financial asset or liability.
The best evidence of the fair value of a financial instrument at initial recognition is normally the transaction price (i.e., the fair
value of the consideration given or received).
If the fair value determined by the Bank differs from the transaction price at initial recognition – e.g., off-market interest rate
loans – then the difference at initial recognition is recognised as follows:
If that fair value is evidenced by a quoted price in an active market for an identical asset or liability or based on a valuation
technique that uses only data from observable markets, the Bank recognises the difference between the fair value at initial
recognition and the transaction price as a gain or loss under ‘Net trading income and fair value result ’; in all other cases, the
measurement is adjusted to defer the difference between the fair value at initial recognition and the transaction price. After
initial recognition, the Bank recognises that deferred difference as a gain or loss only to the extent that it arises from a change
in a factor (including time) that market participants would consider when pricing the asset or liability. In case of loans, the
deferred difference is recognised using the effective interest rate while in case of derivatives the difference is recognised
linearly.
Classification and subsequent measurement
At initial recognition, the Bank classifies financial assets to the following categories:
· at amortised cost;
· at fair value through other comprehensive income or
· at fair value through profit or loss.
The classification of a financial asset is based on a two-step methodology which defines the accounting valuation model for
the instrument types:
· determination of the business model;
· analysis of the contractual cash flow characteristics (Solely Payment of Principal and Interest, SPPI test).
The following chart illustrates the methodology discussed above:

Business model of financial assets
The business model is determined on a portfolio level as it best reflects the Bank’s business objectives for a group of assets,
and it is also the level of aggregation that management uses. When determining the business model, the Bank takes into
consideration the following information:
· how the performance of the business model (and the financial assets held within that business model) are evaluated
and reported to the Bank’s key management personnel;
· the risks that affect the performance of the business model (and the financial assets held within that business
model) and the way those risks are managed;
· how managers of the business are compensated – e.g., whether the compensation is based on the fair value of the
assets managed or the contractual cash flows collected;
· the frequency, value and timing of sales in prior periods, the reasons for such sales, and the expectations about
future sales activity; and
· whether sales activity and the collection of contractual cash flows are each integral or incidental to the business
model (‘hold to collect’ versus ‘hold to collect and sell’ business model).
Hold to collect business model
The model’s objective is to hold financial assets to collect contractual cash flows even when if sales of financial assets have
occurred or are expected to occur.
The following examples of sales may be consistent with the hold-to-collect business model:
· the sales are due to an increase in the credit risk of a financial asset;
· the sales are infrequent (even if significant), or are insignificant individually and in aggregate (even if frequent);
· the sales take place close to the maturity of the financial asset and the proceeds from the sales approximate the
the remaining contractual cash flows.
Quantitative guidelines or thresholds are not provided by IFRS 9 on the value or frequency of sales from hold-to-collect
portfolio. The Bank considers the sale of less than 10% of the portfolio’s carrying amount during a rolling 3-year period
consistent with hold-to-collect business model. The Bank considers the sale of an asset with maturity of less than 3 months
can be deemed as close to maturity.
Hold to collect and sell business model
The objective of this business model is to meet the Bank’s everyday liquidity needs. Realising profit from financial assets in
these types of portfolios can be achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets in the portfolio.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024

14
Other business models
· Trading portfolio: the primary objective is to realise short-term profits.
· Strategic investment portfolio: the goal is to hold long-term investments and collect cash flows (e.g., dividend).
· Hedge portfolio: derivatives in hedging relationships as hedging instruments.
Analysis of contractual cash flow characteristics
The Bank assesses whether the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specific dates to cash flows that are solely
payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding (SPPI test), i.e., whether they are consistent with the
terms of a basic lending agreement. For this purpose, the principal is the fair value at initial recognition. The interest can only
contain consideration for the time value of money and for the credit risk associated with the principal amount outstanding
during a particular period of time and for other basic lending risks (e.g., liquidity risk) and costs (e.g., administrative costs), as
well as a profit margin. This involves the assessment whether the financial asset has contractual terms that might change the
timing of contractual cash flows. In assessing this, the Bank considers the following factors:
· conditional events that might change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows;
· leverage;
· prepayment and prolongation options;
· contractual terms that limit the Bank’s receivables to defined assets of the debtor or cash flows generated by a
defined asset (e.g., non-performing financial assets that cannot be liquidated in case of non-performance), and
· contractual terms that modify the time value of money element – e.g., the interest rate is reset on a regular basis.
The Bank uses both quantitative (benchmark test – denoted by ‘BMT’ in the above figure) and qualitative (manual analysis –
denoted by ‘MA’ in the above figure) approaches to determine whether the time value of money element of the interest rate is
modified.
The Bank primarily performs the analysis of contractual cash flow characteristics by clasterisation of financial assets. The
analysis of contractual cash flow characteristics of contracts that cannot be clasterised is performed individually.
Sustainability-linked (ESG-linked) loans are structured such that their interest rates vary based on whether the borrower
achieves pre-determined targets defined in the loan agreement. As long as the variability of the interest rate is not related to
additional leverage, linked to an external index or is below a predefined threshold the loans are shown at amortized cost.
The Bank identified the following three portfolios where the contractual terms are not consistent with a basic lending
agreement as described in IFRS 9.
Subsidised housing loans (’CSOK’ – housing subsidy for families, Subsidised Housing Loans)
These loans granted to individuals for the purpose of financing the purchase of flats/houses share two characteristics. One
shared characteristic is that a pre-determined portion of the contractual interest is generally paid by the Hungarian
government instead of the borrower over a certain period. The other shared characteristic is that the contractual interest
reprices with a pre-determined frequency (the interest period can be 3, 5 and 10 years) and depends on average yields (’GDMA
average yields’) observed at government bond and treasury bill auctions, regularly published by the Government Debt
Management Agency (’GDMA’). In the formula determining contractual interest, the GDMA average yields are multiplied by 1.3
and a risk premium is added to the resulting interest rate. The Bank regards the multiplier applied to GDMA average yields as a
leverage factor inconsistent with a basic lending agreement and thus the contractual cash flows of subsidised housing loans
are deemed not to solely represent payments of principal and interest on principal outstanding.
Loan programs of Hungarian Development Bank (HDB)
A common characteristic of the interest of such loans granted to enterprises in course of the loan programs is that the
currency in which the loan is denominated differs from the currency of the base rate used to determine variable interest rate
on those loans (currency mismatch): according to IFRS 9, due to the currency mismatch, the contractual cash flows of the loans
do not solely represent payments of principal and interest on principal outstanding.
Childbirth incentive loan
The childbirth incentive loan is part of the Hungarian Government’s Family Protection Action Plan. The program offers a state
subsidized personal loan up to HUF 10 million to married couples with the condition that they bear at least one child within 5
years. Further state support is granted to an early redemption of the loan after the second child (30% capital repayment) and
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024

Separate financial statements
the third newly born child (full capital repayment). The loan is interest free for the customers who pay only the capital and the
guarantee fee. The interest subsidy is equal to 130% of the weighted average of 5-year government bond yields observed on
auctions regularly published by GDMA in the preceding 3 months plus 2%. In case of breaching the contract, the customer shall
pay back the interest subsidy within 120 days and the loan becomes interest bearing with an interest rate equal to 130% of the
weighted average of 5-year government bond yields observed on auctions regularly published by GDMA in the preceding 3
months plus 4%. The Bank regards the multiplier applied to GDMA average yields as a leverage factor inconsistent with a basic
lending agreement and thus the contractual cash flows of childbirth incentive loans are deemed not to solely represent
payments of principal and interest on principal outstanding.
Accounting classification
At amortised cost
The Bank measures its financial assets measured at amortised cost (AAC), if both of the following conditions are met:
· the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect
contractual cash flows (hold to collect) and
· the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding (SPPI).
The amortised cost of a financial asset is the amount at which the financial asset is measured at initial recognition minus the
principal repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortisation using the effective interest method of any difference
between that initial amount and the maturity amount and adjusted for any loss allowance.
At fair value through other comprehensive income
The Bank measures its debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) if both of the following
conditions are met:
· the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash
flows and selling financial assets (hold-and-sell) and
· the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding (SPPI).
The Bank may make an irrevocable election at initial recognition for equity investments not held for trading and does not
qualify as a subsidiary, associate or joint venture, to measure subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income.
The Bank makes this election on an instrument by instrument basis.
At fair value through profit and loss
All other financial assets – i.e., not measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income – are
measured at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL).
The Bank may make an irrevocable election at initial recognition to measure a financial asset at fair value through profit or
loss, if it eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting or presentation mismatch.
Classification and measurement of financial liabilities
The Bank measures financial liabilities, except for financial guarantees and loan commitments, at amortised cost or at fair
value through profit or loss.
At fair value through profit and loss
Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss include held for trading financial liabilities that are not
derivatives and derivatives that are not in hedging relationships.
The fair value changes of financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss after initial measurement are
recognised in profit or loss.
At amortised cost
Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost are subsequently measured at amortised cost using effective interest method.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
Separate financial statements
16
Reclassifications
The Bank reclassifies a financial asset, when and only when it changes its business model for managing the financial asset.
If the Bank reclassifies financial assets, the reclassification is applied prospectively from the date of reclassification. The Bank
considers the first day of the quarter following the business model change as the reclassification date. The Bank does not
remeasure income, expense (including impairment losses or gains) and interest recognised previously.
The Bank cannot reclassify a financial liability after initial recognition.
Derivative instruments
Derivative financial instruments include forward foreign exchange contracts, interest rate swaps, forward rate agreements,
futures and options (both written and purchased). Derivatives are measured initially and subsequently at fair value.
Derivative contracts are entered into with the purpose of trading, or for risk management purposes in order to hedge interest
rate and foreign exchange risk. In addition, the Bank uses other derivatives, not designated in a qualifying hedge relationship,
to manage its exposure to foreign currency, interest rate and equity market risks. The instruments used include interest rate
swaps, cross-currency interest rate swaps, forward contracts, and options. The Bank applies IAS 39 to the accounting for
designated hedging relationships.
Derivatives embedded in financial assets that are in the scope of IFRS 9 are never separated. In this case the entire hybrid
instrument is assessed for classification as part of the SPPI test.
For financial liabilities where the host is not an IFRS 9 financial asset, embedded derivatives should be accounted for separately
if :
· the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are not closely related to the economic
characteristics and risks of the host contract;
· a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a derivative;
and
· the hybrid (combined) instrument is not measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss
(i.e. a derivative that is embedded in a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss is not separated).
Derivatives are classified as assets when their fair value is positive or as liabilities when their fair value is negative. According
to IAS 32.42 derivative assets and liabilities arising from different transactions are only offset in the statement of financial
position if the transactions are with the same counterparty, a legal right to offset exists, and the parties intend to settle the
cash flows on a net basis. The netting agreements of the Bank can only be enforced under certain conditions, therefore
financial assets and liabilities are presented gross in the statement of financial position.
Interest income and expense from IRS and CCIRS deals – irrespective whether derivatives are held for trading or held for risk
management purposes – are recognised in line item ‘Net interest income’.
Some derivative instruments such as FX swaps and FX forwards may have no contractually stipulated interest part, but a fair
value that is influenced by interest rate movements (e.g., forward points based on interest rate differential). If such derivatives
are used as economic hedges in order to hedge the interest rate risk of an underlying, the according implicit interest part may
be presented ‘Net interest income’ to correctly reflect the business nature of the transaction of correcting the interest income/
expense of the hedged underlying. 
Changes in fair value less accrued interest and the implicit interest result of trading FX swaps and FX forwards are recognised
in line item ‘Net trading income and fair value result’.
Hedge accounting
The Bank designates certain derivatives held for risk management as hedging instruments in qualifying hedging relationships.
On initial designation of the hedge, the Bank formally documents the relationship between the hedging instrument(s) and the
hedged item(s), including the risk management objective and strategy in undertaking the hedge, together with the method
that will be used to assess the effectiveness of the hedging relationship. The Bank makes an assessment, both at the inception
of the hedging relationship as well as on an ongoing basis, as to whether the hedging instruments are expected to be highly
effective in offsetting the changes in the fair value of the respective hedged item during the period for which the hedge is
designated, and whether the actual results of each hedge are within a range of 80-125 percent.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
17
Separate financial statements
Fair value hedges
When a derivative is designated as the hedging instrument in a hedge of the changes in fair value of a recognised asset or
liability that could affect profit and loss, changes in the fair value less accrued interest of the derivative are recognised
immediately in profit and loss together with changes in the fair value of the hedged item that are attributable to the hedged
risk under ‘ Net gains/losses from hedge accounting’. Interest income or expense arising from the derivative is reported as ‘Net
interest income’.
If the hedging derivative expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or the hedge no longer meets the criteria for fair value
hedge accounting, or the hedge designation is revoked, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. Any adjustment
up to that point to a hedged item for which the effective interest method is used, is amortised to profit and loss over its
remaining term through a recalculated effective interest rate of the item.
The Bank hedges fixed-rate loans, deposits, fixed-rate issued bonds and purchased bonds in fair value hedge relationships
with interest rate swaps and cross currency interest rate swaps. Hedge accounting is applied on both micro and on macro
(portfolio) level as well. In the latter case, a portfolio of (modelled) current account balances and a portfolio of fixed rate loans
are designated as hedged items.
Cash flow hedges
When a derivative is designated as the hedging instrument in a hedge of the exposure to variability in cash flows that is
attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognised asset or liability, the portion of the gain or loss less accrued
interest on the hedging instrument that is determined to be an effective hedge is recognised in other comprehensive income
and the ineffective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognised in profit or loss under ‘Net gains/losses
from hedge accounting’. Interest income or expense of the derivative is reported as ‘Net interest income’.
The Bank applies cash flow hedge accounting using interest rate swaps and cross currency interest rate swaps where the
hedged portfolio is a group of foreign currency loans and forint deposits, and the purpose of the hedge is to eliminate the
fluctuation of the interest income and expense that arises from fluctuations in the base rates and in exchange rates.
If the hedging derivative expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or the hedge no longer meets the criteria for cash flow
hedge accounting, or the hedge designation is revoked, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively from that point of
time when the hedging relationship became ineffective. The Bank reclassifies gain or loss accumulated in other comprehensive
income into profit or loss in the same periods during which the hedged asset or liability affects the profit or loss. However, if
the Bank expects that all or part of the loss recognised in the other comprehensive income will not be recoverable then it
reclassifies that amount immediately to profit or loss as ‘Net gains/losses from hedge accounting’.
Sources of ineffectiveness
The Bank has identified the following possible sources of ineffectiveness in both fair value and cash flow hedges:
· Hedging interest rate risk with swaps could cause a possible ineffectiveness due to the credit risk of the derivative
counterparty which is not included in the hedged item. This risk is minimised by entering into hedging swaps only
with high credit quality counterparties.
· Different amortisation profiles of hedged items and hedging instruments or different notionals.
· Discounting the hedged item and the hedging instrument with different yield curves when determining fair value.
· Ineffectiveness might arise due to different starting/maturity dates between the hedged items and the hedging
instruments.
Impairment of financial assets
The determination of expected credit losses requires accounting estimates that by definition, are rarely the same as the actual
results.
The Bank measures expected credit losses based on entire contractual term for financial instruments measured at amortised
cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income, loan commitments, lease receivables and financial guarantee
contracts. The Bank recognises for these expected losses impairment loss allowance (in case of financial assets) or provision (in
case of loan commitments or financial guarantee contracts) at each reporting date.
Recognition of expected credit losses
For the purposes of expected credit losses, the Bank classifies its assets to the following valuation categories:
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
Separate financial statements
18
· Performing financial instruments where the credit risk of the financial instrument has not increased significantly
since initial recognition (stage 1 classification): For financial instruments classified to stage 1, the recognition of 12
months expected credit loss is required, which is a portion of the lifetime expected credit loss, i.e., expected credit
loss attributable to the financial instrument, arising from default events within 12 months after the reporting date.
· Performing financial instruments with a deteriorating credit risk profile, where the credit risk of the financial
instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition (stage 2 classification): Financial instruments, the
credit risk of which has significantly increased since initial recognition or other qualitative factors indicate significant
risk.
· Credit-impaired financial instruments (stage 3 classification): Those exposures are classified as credit-impaired
where there is objective evidence that the debtor will not be able to meet its payment obligations towards the Bank.
For financial instruments classified as stage 3, the recognition of lifetime expected credit loss is required (see the
definition below).
· Purchased or originated credit impaired financial instruments (POCI classification): POCI financial assets are those
which are credit-impaired at initial recognition. For the Bank, POCI financial assets can be recognised by either
purchase or contract modification, where the modification results in derecognition of the original financial asset and
the recognition of the modified financial asset. In case of POCI financial assets, the recognition of lifetime expected
credit loss is required from initial recognition until derecognition.
Low credit risk financial assets
The Bank applies this classification only in case of investment grade rated government securities, for which the Bank always
recognises 12-month expected credit losses, even if their credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition. The
Bank classifies government securities as investment grade for which external credit rating agencies gave AAA and BBB-
(Standard &Poor’s, Fitch), or Aaa and Baa3 (Moody’s) ratings.
Significant increase in credit risk (transfer to stage 2)
The Bank considers an increase in credit risk of a financial instrument significant since its initial recognition, when at least one
of the following quantitative, qualitative or termination criteria are met:
Quantitative criteria
The Bank applies quantitative criteria as primary indicators related to the significant increase in credit risk for all its portfolios.
For the quantitative classification, the Bank compares the actual and initial probability of default for the remaining maturity of
the asset. The increase in probability of default (PD) which is considered significant differs for each segment (by default it is
250% for non-retail segments but can decrease to a minimum of 150% for transactions with a maturity of over one year, in line
with the requirements of the parent bank). In the retail segment (households and micro enterprises) the determination of
significant increase in PD is based on the initial and actual credit rating, remaining maturity and the PD curve. The measure for
significant portfolio deterioration was determined on the basis of the PD estimated for the remaining maturity of a financial
asset at the date of disbursement divided by the current PD for the remaining maturity, disaggregated into products of the
retail portfolio.
Qualitative criteria
For the determination of significant increase in the credit risk for all its material portfolios, the Bank uses qualitative criteria as
secondary indicators. The transfer to stage 2 is carried out if the following criteria are met:
In case of sovereign, banking and corporate financial institutions, local and regional government portfolios, if at least one of
the following criteria are met for the borrower:
· renegotiation because of financial difficulties;
· past-due for more than 30 days;
· the client requires special treatment because of its credit risk status,
· in line with the provisions of IFRS and the instructions of the parent bank in case of contracts where the Bank
identifies significantly increased credit risk, which cannot be detected using other stage 2 indicators, nor assessed
with statistical models: in case of those clients where the post model adjustment described in Chapter 6.2 assumes
a non-significant rating deterioration, the transfer to stage 2 is automatic.
The assessment of the significant increase of credit risk involves forward looking information and is carried out quarterly for
each non-retail portfolio of the Bank.
In case of retail (individuals and micro enterprises) portfolios, if the borrower meets one or more of the following criteria:
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
19
Separate financial statements
· renegotiation because of financial difficulties;
· expert judgement;
· past-due for more than 30 days;
· default event at another transaction of the client;
· the transaction or client is rated under the IRB methodology but falls to the unclassified category.
The assessment of the significant increase of credit risk involves forward looking information and is carried out monthly for
each retail portfolio of the Bank at the transaction level.
For the information related to the increase in credit risk due to COVID-19 please see note (6.2) Credit risk.
Definition of credit-impaired loans (transfer to stage 3)
Non-retail clients
In case of non-retail clients in line with the definition of credit-impaired loans, the Bank considers a debt instrument arising
from a financing agreement defaulted if it meets one or more of the following criteria:
Quantitative criteria
A payment delay is considered material, if the overdue amount reaches HUF 180,000 and the ratio of the overdue amount to
the total on-balance outstanding amount from the same client reaches 1%.
Qualitative criteria
It is expected that the borrower cannot fulfil its payment obligations, which indicates that the borrower is experiencing
significant financial difficulties. A non-retail client turns into default due to expected non-payment in the following cases:
· legal claim enforcement procedure (bankruptcy, liquidation) starts against the micro enterprise client;
· the Bank terminates the financing agreement with immediate effect;
· the Bank restructures the obligation with material losses due to existing financial difficulties in line with the above-
mentioned materiality limit of 1%;;
· the Bank suffers credit losses due to the client, or it sells the asset with losses due to financial difficulties and
increased credit risk (typically these are not primary defaults);
· in case of financial institutions, the supervisory license is withdrawn;
· repayment moratoria in a country;
· the borrower is in significant, more than 90 days payment delinquency compared to its contractual payment
obligation.
It is not possible for borrowers with contractual payments past due for more than 90 days to be classified to a category other
than stage 3.
In case of probable expected credit losses due to other reasons: for the purpose of assessing expected credit losses, in order to
sort out clients with financial difficulties, the Bank applies a complex early warning system and process based on qualitative
and quantitative indicators, which examines the expected credit losses and expected recoveries of the client using financial
indicators.
The Bank classifies every transaction that meets the credit impaired definition under IFRS as non-performing and categorises
them as stage 3 for impairment and provision calculation purposes.
The criteria mentioned above are applied for all non-retail debt instruments of the Bank and are in line with the definition of
non-performance used in internal credit risk management. The definition of default is applied consistently in the Bank’s models
relating to probability of default (PD), exposure at default (EAD), and loss given default (LGD).
If the criteria of default are not met, expectations about losses are not justified and there are no valid concerns regarding the
fulfilment of debt service for at least 3 months or in case of restructured loans for more than 3 months, but at least for a 1-
year period, the asset is not considered defaulted anymore.

Participation in the legislative repayment moratorium due to the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic is not considered an automatic
indicator for non-performance. For clients participating either in the repayment moratorium 2 introduced in 2021 (repayment
moratorium 2 and repayment moratorium 3) or in the moratorium extension in 2022 (repayment moratorium 4) or in 2022
newly introduced moratorium for exposures from agricultural financing, as well as the SME benchmark interest rate stop
(detailed in section (5.2) Significant events in the reporting period), the Bank assessed individually the possible worsened
liquidity and financial position, and in such situations the clients affected by the moratoria were considered restructured and
the Bank performed an impairment test to detect the expected non-performance. In case of clients detected in the
impairment test the Bank performed a net present value calculation, and in case of such clients where the net present value of
the expected future repayments did not cover the actual outstanding balance, default status was identified, and the client
was transferred to stage3. The tests described above were performed separately for clients participating in the moratoria (2,
3, 4 and agricultural) and the SME interest rate stop.
During the repayment moratoria, the DPD calculations have been suspended for the outstanding balances eligible for the
moratoria.
Retail clients
In case of retail clients, the Bank considers a debt instrument arising from a financing agreement as defaulted in line with the
definition of credit-impaired, if it meets one or more of the following criteria:
The financial asset is in a material, more than 90 days payment delinquency compared to the contractual payment obligation
arising from the financing agreement.
A payment delay is considered material, if the delay related to the financing agreement reaches the HUF equivalent of EUR 100
and 1% compared to the total (delayed and non-delayed) exposure from the transaction (in case of micro enterprises the total
exposure from the same client).
It is expected that the borrower cannot fulfil its payment obligation, which indicates that the borrower is experiencing
significant financial difficulties. In case of retail client the transaction turns into default due to expected non-payment in the
following cases:
· the debtor passed away;
· the debtor committed a fraud;
· legal claim enforcement procedure (bankruptcy, liquidation) starts against the client;
· the Bank sold the receivable due to its high credit risk;
· terminating the financing agreement with immediate effect;
· restructuring the obligation due to financial difficulties;
· envisaging expected credit losses due to other reasons;
· there is a cross-default, i.e., another transaction of a client or another client’s default causes default of a certain
transaction.
An asset is no longer considered defaulted when the criteria of default have not met for at least 3 months, or in case of
restructured loans for at least 1 year, and the client fulfils all other conditions to be classified out of the ’defaulted’ category.
The Bank considers every credit-impaired (see the definition above) transaction defaulted and classifies it to stage 3 for the
purposes of impairment and provisioning. The criteria above are applied to all retail debt instruments of the Bank.
Measurement of expected credit losses
The amount of expected credit loss is an unbiased probability-weighted amount that takes into consideration the time value
of money, uses reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort at the reporting date
about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.
More specifically, the Bank measures expected credit losses in the following way:
In case of stage 1 and stage 2 exposures: The marginal expected credit loss for the given month is the product of PD, LGD and
EAD. The above calculation estimates the future amount of expected credit losses effectively, from which the Bank calculates
a present value for the reporting date. Then the calculated amount of expected credit losses is weighted based on a forward-
looking scenarios.
The Bank applies different models for estimating its reserves for stage 3 exposures:
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
21
Separate financial statements
In case of exposures to sovereigns, corporate clients, project financing and financial institutions, local and regional
municipalities, insurance undertakings and collective investment companies in stage 3, the reserves are calculated by workout
experts by discounting the expected recoveries from cash flows with the effective interest rate of the transactions. The
experts provide estimates of expected recoveries at the client level in more scenarios and the probability-weighted averages
of the cash flows from each recovery scenario is considered in the present value calculations.
In case of stage 3 retail loans, the expected credit loss is calculated based on statistical estimates for most likely expected loss
(BEEL, Best Estimate of Expected Loss) to remove indirect costs, and conservative add-ons from those estimations.
Discount rate
The Bank applies the following discount rates when calculating the expected credit losses:
· financial instruments and financial assets which are not purchased or originated credit-impaired (non-POCI): original
or current effective interest rate;
· purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets (POCI): the credit-adjusted effective interest rate;
· undrawn loan commitments: market interest rate which is an appropriate approximation of effective interest rate;
· financial guarantees: market interest rate which is an appropriate approximation of effective interest rate.
Forward looking information
Assessment of whether credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition and the measurement of expected credit
losses are estimations incorporating also forward-looking information. The Bank performs a chronological analysis and
determines the most significant economic variables influencing credit risk and expected credit losses in case of each portfolio.
These economic variables and their impact on the probability of default, loss given default and exposure at default can vary
across types of categories. While making this analysis, the Bank also uses expert estimations. The forecasts of the above
economic variables (‘base case economic scenario’) is provided by Raiffeisen Research quarterly, giving the best estimates of
those economic indicators for the following three years. In the non-retail segment, the impact of those economic variables on
the probability of default, loss given default and exposure at default is determined by using statistical regressions in order to
make the impact of historical development of such variables on default rates, non-performing exposures and expected losses
understandable.
In case of retail portfolios, the Bank applies a macroeconomic model based on these economical variables in order to estimate
the probability of default. Based on this model the effect of forecasted change in PD is estimated for a 3-year period, then it
returns to the original PD curve over a one year transitional period.
Besides the base economic scenario, a best case (optimistic) and a worst case (pessimistic) scenario is also provided by
Raiffeisen Research, together with their weighting in order to grab the expected variance. The Bank concluded that three
scenarios capture the expected variance properly. The weighting of the scenarios is determined by the combination of
statistical analysis and expert credit rating taken the outcomes of the selected individual scenarios into account. The
probability-weighted expected credit losses are determined by running the appropriate expected credit loss model to the
respective scenarios and weighting the results, the weights being the probabilities of the scenarios. The weights of the
scenarios (probability of the scenarios: 50% base, 25% optimistic, 25% pessimistic) remained the same in 2024.
Like all economic forecasts, these estimates and their probabilities of occurrence are prone to significant uncertainties and
thus actual outcomes might significantly differ from forecasts. It is the Bank’s view that these forecasts represent the best
estimate of the possible results and cover eventual differences and asymmetries concerning the various portfolios of the Bank.
Forward looking information applied in estimating expected credit losses for the current year and for the comparative period is
described in note (6.2) Credit risk.
Presentation of expected credit losses in the statement of financial position
The Bank presents expected credit losses in its statement of financial position as follows:
· for financial assets measured at amortised cost: as loss allowance which is deducted from the gross carrying
amount of the asset;
· for loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts: as a provision;
· for financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income: the impairment is not recognised in
the statement of financial position, since the carrying amounts of these assets are their fair values. The Bank
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
Separate financial statements
22
recognises the impairment for these financial assets in the reserve for fair value measurement and discloses those
amounts in the notes.
Write-off of financial assets
Loans and debt instruments are written off (partially or entirely) if the Bank has no reasonable expectations of recovering a
financial asset or a portion thereof. Generally, this is the case if the Bank believes that the debtor does not have sufficient
assets that generate enough cash flow to repay the amount to be written off.
In a legal claim enforcement procedure, the Bank considers the following factors when deciding on the write-off of a loan to
clients other than individuals:
· the claim has been qualified as irrecoverable in a legal claim enforcement procedure (liquidation, enforcement);
· the recoverable amount does not cover collection costs; or
· the expected recovery of the Bank is zero in a liquidation procedure based on the ranking order of creditors.
The Bank applies the partial write-off rules of IFRS 9 for loans to non-individuals, if it has no reasonable expectations of
recovering a financial asset in its entirety, based on ongoing legal claim enforcement procedure or or in lack of operating cash
flows of the client. In these cases, partial write-off is applied to the extent of the existing loss allowance. The legal claim
towards the client remains the contractual gross receivable amount before write-off.
Forgiveness of receivables is also possible for non-individuals and it qualifies as a derecognition event. Forgiveness is only
possible with taking the requirements of business rationality into account. Not only business and economic considerations can
be reasonable, but also any other considerations, e.g., legal, technical, technological or other.
A loan to an individual can be written off, if the recoverable amount from the transaction does not cover collection costs and
the claim was qualified as irrecoverable.
The write-off or forgiveness of a loan is recognised in the statement of profit or loss, depending on the classification of the
financial asset under either ‘Impairment losses on financial assets’ (loans measured at amortised cost or at fair value through
other comprehensive income) or ‘ Net trading income and fair value result’ (loans measured at fair value through profit or loss).
Any return on a loan previously written off is recognised under the same lines in the statement of profit or loss.
Derecognition of financial assets and liabilities, other than contract modifications
The Bank derecognises a financial asset, when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or when
it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the
risk and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created
or retained by the Bank is recognised as a separate asset or liability.
The Bank also enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognised on its statement of financial position but retains
either all or substantially all of the risks and rewards of the transferred assets or a portion of them. If all or substantially all
risks and rewards are retained, then the transferred assets are not derecognised from the statement of financial position.
Transfers of assets with retention of all or substantially all risks and rewards include, for example, securities lending, sale and
repurchase transaction and securitisations.
When assets are sold to a third party with a concurrent total return swap on the transferred assets, the transaction is
accounted for as a secured financing transaction similarly to sale and repurchase transactions.
In transactions in which the Bank neither retains nor transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of the ownership of a
financial asset, it derecognises the asset, if it does not retain control over the asset. If the Bank retains substantially all the
risks and rewards, the rights and obligations retained in the transfer are recognised separately as assets and liabilities as
appropriate in the line items ‘Financial assets measured at amortised cost’ or ‘Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost
depending on direction of the transaction. In transfers in which control over the financial asset is retained, the Bank continues
to recognise the asset to the extent of its continuing involvement, determined by the extent to which it is exposed to changes
in the value of the transferred asset.
In certain transactions, the Bank retains the obligation to service the transferred financial assets for a fee. The transferred
asset is derecognised in its entirety if it meets the derecognition criteria. An asset is recognised for the servicing contract if
servicing fee exceeds the value of the service and a liability is recognised for the servicing contract if servicing fee is lower than
the value of the service.
The Bank enters into purchases (or sales) of securities under agreements to resell (or repurchase) substantially identical
securities at a certain date in the future at a fixed price. Securities purchased subject to commitments to resell them at future
dates are not recognised as securities. The amounts paid are presented in the statement of financial position line item
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
23
Separate financial statements
Financial assets measured at amortised cost’ and disclosed as collateralised by the underlying security. Securities sold under
repurchase agreements continue to be presented and measured in the statement of financial position among securities. The
Bank presents the obligations to transfer the securities among ‘’Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost’. The difference
between the sale and repurchase considerations is recognised on an accrual basis over the term of the transaction and is
included in '’Other interest income’ or ‘Interest expense
The Bank securitises certain financial instruments by classifying the related risks into portfolios. A securitisation is a
transaction in which the credit risk associated with an exposure (or a group of exposures) is assigned to a series of tranches,
and for which both of the following criteria is met: payments under the transaction are made in the context of the
performance of the exposure or group of exposures, and the relative subordination of the series of tranches to each other
determines the distribution of losses over the life of the transaction. Traditional securitisation allows a group of loans to be
refinanced by converting them into a marketable securities. In this case, a true transfer of receivables takes place and the
assets and risks are fully or partially derecognised from the balance sheet of the party initiating the securitisation. In case of
synthetic securitisation, the transfer of risk is achieved by the use of credit derivatives or guarantees, and the exposures being
securitised remain exposures of the Bank.
On 23 December 2022, the Bank concluded a portfolio guarantee contract. The received guarantee is a synthetic transaction
which is split into senior, mezzanine and junior tranches. The credit risk of the mezzanine tranche is guaranteed by institutional
investors, whereas the Bank retained the credit risk of the junior and senior tranches. As the Bank retained the contractual
rights to the cash flows arising from the loans and it retained all or substantially all risks and rewards from a portion of all
loans concerned, under IFRS 9 the loans are not derecognised from the statement of financial position.
The Bank derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled or expired.
The result from derecognition of financial assets and liabilities is presented in ‘Net trading income and fair value result’ or ‘Net
gains/losses from derecognition of financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value through profit or loss’ line items of
the statement of profit or loss.
Modification of financial assets and liabilities
Financial assets
The Bank carries out an evaluation when the contractual cash flows of a financial asset are renegotiated, otherwise modified
or exchanged for another financial asset. Based on this, if the renegotiated cash flows significantly differ from the contractual
cash flows of the original financial asset, the original financial asset is derecognised and the new financial asset is recognised
at fair value on the date of the renegotiation. The difference between the carrying amount of the original financial asset and
the fair value of the newly recognised financial asset is included in the line item ‘Net gains/losses from derecognition of
financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value through profit or loss‘ in the statement of profit or loss.
The Bank evaluates significance based on qualitative and quantitative criteria:.
Qualitative criteria:
· change of currency, when the contract does not allow draw-downs in multiple currencies;
· the financial instrument changes (i.e., loan to bond or current account to term loan in case of restructuring);
· addition or elimination of a contractual term that violates the SPPI test.
Quantitative criteria:
· the cumulative average remaining term of the transaction weighted with the cash flow changes at least by 2 years
or the original term changes by at least 50% (taking into account the greater of the two criteria);
· the net present value of the modified contractual cash flows discounted using the original effective interest rate (or
for floating rate instruments, using the actual effective interest rate) differs from the net present value of the
original contractual cash flows discounted with the same interest rate by more than 10% and in case of non-retail
financial assets at least by EUR 100,000, in case of retail assets at least by EUR 2,000 (considering the larger of the 2
criteria).
If the modified cash flows of an asset measured at amortised cost do not differ significantly from the cash flows prior to the
modification, the modification does not result in derecognition. In this case, the Bank recalculates the gross carrying amount of
the financial asset and the difference between this amount and the gross carrying amount of the asset prior to the
modification is recognised as a modification gain or loss in the statement of profit or loss. If the modification was carried out
in relation to the financial difficulties of the client, the modification gain or loss is presented in the statement of
comprehensive income in the line item ‘Impairment losses on financial assets’. In other cases, the modification gain or loss is
presented in the statement of profit or loss in the line item ‘Other result.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
Separate financial statements
24
Any fees considered in determining the fair value of the new financial asset and any reimbursed transaction costs incurred
during the modification adjust the amortised cost of the modified financial asset. Other transaction costs are recognised as
part of the gain or loss on the derecognition.
Financial liabilities
The Bank derecognises the financial liability, if its terms are modified and the modified cash flows significantly differ from the
original cash flows (the evaluation of significance is the same as for financial assets). In this case, the carrying amount of the
original financial liability is derecognised and the modified financial liability is recognised at its fair value on the date of
modification. The difference between the carrying amount of the derecognised financial liability and the fair value of the new,
modified financial liability is reported as ‘Net gains/losses from derecognition of financial assets and liabilities not measured at
fair value through profit or loss‘ in the statement of profit or loss.
If the modified cash flows of a liability measured at amortised cost do not differ significantly from the cash flows prior to the
modification, the modification does not result in derecognition of the financial liability. In this case, the Bank recalculates the
amortised cost of the financial liability and the difference between this amount and the amortised cost of the liability prior to
the modification is recognised as a modification gain or loss as ‘Other result’.
If the modification does not result in derecognition, transaction costs and fees incurred during the modification adjust the
amortised cost of the financial liability.
If the modification results in derecognition of a financial liability, transaction costs and fees incurred related to the
modification are normally recognised in profit or loss, unless they are proven to be directly attributable to the newly recognised
modified financial liability.
Offsetting of financial assets and liabilities
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset, and the net amount is reported in the statement of financial position when
there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise
the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
(4.10) Deposits, debt securities and subordinated liabilities
Deposits, debt securities issued and subordinated liabilities are the Bank’s sources of debt funding.
Deposits, debt securities issued and subordinated liabilities are initially measured at fair value less directly attributable
transaction costs, and subsequently measured at their amortised cost using the effective interest method.
(4.11) Provisions for contingent liabilities
A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the Bank has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be
estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions
are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of
the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.
Contingent liabilities, which include loan commitments and certain issued guarantees, are possible obligations that arise from
past events whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence, or non-occurrence, of one or more uncertain future
events not wholly within the control of the Bank.
The timing of the possible outflows depends on the occurrence, or non-occurrence of future events which, in case of loan
commitments and issued guarantees, could occur at any time up to the maturity date, while in case of pending legal cases it is
expected to occur after the date of closing the legal case.
All contingent liabilities are included in the financial statements regardless of whether the outflow of economic resources
arising from the fulfilment of the obligation is probable or not.
(4.12) Financial guarantees
Financial guarantees are contracts that require the Bank to make specified payments to reimburse the holder of the
guarantee for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the terms of a
debt instrument.
Financial guarantee liabilities are initially recognised at their fair value, and the initial fair value is amortised over the life of the
financial guarantee.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
25
Separate financial statements
The financial guarantee liability is subsequently measured at the higher of the provision for expected credit losses in line with
the rules of IFRS 9 and the initially recognised amount less the accumulated revenue recorded in line with IFRS 15. The financial
guarantees are presented under ’Provisions’.
Further details are set out in note (41) Contingent liabilities and commitments.
(4.13) Interest income and interest expense
Interest income and expense on financial instruments of the Bank, calculated using the effective interest method are
presented in the line item ‘Interest income calculated with the effective interest method’, negative interest on demand
deposits at the National Bank of Hungary and on financial liabilities is presented in the line item ‘Other interest income’ and
interest payable on financial liabilities as well as negative interest on financial assets is presented in the line item ‘Interest
expense’ in the statement of profit or loss. Financial instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss held in the
trading book and classified as held for trading, as well as derivative instruments designated for risk management purposes are
exceptions to that and their interest income and interest expense are presented in ‘Other interest income’ and ‘Interest
expense’, respectively. Interest income for loans measured at fair value through profit or loss is also presented in ‘Other
interest income’ and interest expense for deposits measured at fair value through profit or loss is presented in ‘Interest
expense’. In case of derivatives, the interest is separated from other changes in fair value and as a consequence, interest result
from derivatives only contains realised and unrealised interest results.
The effective interest rate method is the method used for the calculation of amortised cost of financial assets and liabilities
and the allocation of interest income and expense between different reporting periods.
The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected
life (or a sometimes a shorter period) of the financial asset or financial liability to the net carrying amount of a financial asset
or a financial liability. The effective interest rate is determined at the initial recognition of the financial asset or financial
liability and is revised in case of financial instruments with a floating interest when the floating interest rate is periodically
reset. When calculating the effective interest rate, the Bank estimates future cash flows by considering all contractual terms of
the financial instrument. The calculation contains all paid or received amounts which are an integral part of the effective
interest rate, including transaction costs and any other premium and discount. Transaction costs include incremental costs
that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial asset or financial liability.
Calculation of interest income
The Bank calculates the effective interest on financial assets that are not credit-impaired (stage 1 and stage 2) by applying the
original effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of the financial asset. In case of credit-impaired (but not POCI)
financial assets, the interest is calculated by applying the original effective interest rate to the amortised cost (net carrying
amount) of the financial asset. If the financial asset is reclassified to a non-credit-impaired category (stage 1 and stage 2), the
base for effective interest calculation reverts to the gross carrying amount. For POCI financial assets, the interest income is
calculated by applying the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortised cost (net carrying amount) of the financial
asset until derecognition.
(4.14) Fee and commission income
Every realised and accrued fee and commission income is recognised as a fee and commission income, except for those that
are included in the calculation of the effective interest rate of financial instruments and which relate to financial instruments
measured at fair value through profit or loss.
The Bank applies IFRS 15 Revenue from contracts with customers standard for its fee and commission income arising from its
contracts with customers.
Fees for payment services and bank cards
Settlement service fees and fees and commissions related to bank cards are reported under fees for payment services and
bank cards.
Settlement service fees
The Bank provides to its clients various services relating to account management. In course of account management, various
related services can be used, for example initiating transfers, direct debits, standing orders, internet banking, providing or
forwarding account information.
Fees related to the Bank’s continuous services are charged monthly in arrears. The fees charged are typically fixed monthly
fees which were determined per customer group and per account package.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
Separate financial statements
26
Transaction fees are typically charged by the Bank at the time of the cash movement of the transaction or monthly in arrears.
These fees are typically determined as a percentage, the volume depending on the transaction. One-off fees related to
transactions are collected by the Bank when the service is provided. These fees can be fixed fees or fees determined on a
percentage basis.
Fees and fee packages are periodically revised, detailed information on which can be found in the current published list of
terms and conditions.
Fees and commissions related to bank cards
The Bank’s services include issuing bank cards for its clients, merchant card acceptance and other related activities. In
providing those services, various types of commission income are realised in the settlement services related line items of 'Fee
and commission income’ which are basically determined in relation to card issuance, but also related to merchant card
acceptance and based on card transactions.
A typical fee income is the yearly ban card usage fee, which depends on the type of the bank card. The yearly fees are typically
charged in advance.
Fees related to services provided continuously are accounted for over the time period the service is provided. Transaction
based fees related to issued bank cards are charged either when the transaction is affected or monthly in arrears. Transaction
based fees are typically the following: ATM cash withdrawal and cash deposit fees, brokerage commissions. One-off fees can
be card blocking fees and card replacement fees which typically fall into the category of fixed fees.
Fees and fee packages are periodically revised, detailed information on which can be found in the current published list of
terms and conditions.
Fees included in foreign exchange conversions and other transactions
The Bank embeds a margin, a quasi transaction fee, in the transactions of clients involving currency conversion and in clients’
other securities transactions. Although these margin amounts are accounted for as foreign exchange gain or loss at the time
of effecting the transaction, the Bank reclassifies them monthly to its commission income. Such margins can be charged in
relation to spot and forward transfers, conversions, bank card and securities trading transactions, effected through various
channels (Direktnet, Elektra, branch office).
Fees charged for outsourced currency exchange activity
In Hungary only credit institutions are allowed to engage in currency exchange activity. The Bank does this type of activity for
its clients also through currency exchange brokers. Given that if the Bank did this activity directly on its own, it would incur
certain expenditures, the profit realised on currency exchange activity is presented gross: fees embedded in transactions and
charged in relation to the clients’ currency exchanges and other fees collected from exchange brokers are presented as fee
income, whereas the result of currency exchange deals credited to the exchange brokers are presented as fee expense. The
fees are typically settled monthly.
Security issuance fees and transfer commissions
In course of its investment management services, the Bank provides securities account management services for its clients.
The Bank charges fees for securities account management and related services. Securities account management fees are
typically determined as a percentage of the stock of securities managed on the securities account over a certain period. It is
settled in the reference period in arrears, quarterly or yearly.
Other fees and commissions can be charged in relation to securities transactions of the Bank’s clients, which are determined as
a percentage of the transaction volume. These fees are typically accounted for in relation to effecting the transaction and in
the current month.
Insurance premiums
The Bank mediates insurance services for its clients. The Bank passes through premiums collected from clients to the insurance
companies. In case these premiums relate to credit products, they are presented net of interest income. Premiums not related
to credit products are accounted for as commissions. Fees charged for mediating insurance services are also presented gross
as fee and commission income for agency services.
As these services are provided continuously, the fees are typically accounted for monthly.

Other fee income, not explained before
The financial commissions not previously mentioned are presented among custodian, corporate finance, asset management
and other fee income.
In cases when services are provided continuously (e.g., custody fees, fees for protecting credit collateral, safe fees) the practice
is also to account for the fees over the reference period, typically monthly in arrears. The one-off fees and commissions are
accounted for in the given period, typically at the time of provision of the service (e.g., advisory for corporate clients, providing
information, other financial services related activities).
All significant services of the Bank generating fee and commission income are detailed in note (8) Net fee and commission
income.
Fee and commission income related to non-credit institution services
Items of fee income accounted for under IFRS 15 are also presented under ‘Other operating income’ of the Bank, however these
are not connected to the Banks services as a credit institution, and as such are not part of the classical fee and commission
income. Such can be typically: fees for expert and accounting services provided to subsidiaries, proceedings fees recovered,
income from selling inventories, which are accounted for by the Bank monthly in case of services provided continuously and in
other cases at the time of occurrence of the economic event.
The Bank does not disclose the value of the outstanding performance obligations as at 31 December 2024 because the
contracts with clients are fixed term contracts for less than one year, indefinite term contracts with a cancellation period of
less than one year or have terms that allow the Bank to recognise revenue in the amount it is entitled to invoice.
Amounts of fees are disclosed in note (12) Other operating income and expenses.
(4.15) Net trading income and fair value result
The line item ‘Net trading income and fair value result comprises gains and losses on assets and liabilities held for trading and
for risk management purposes without hedge accounting and includes all realized and unrealized fair value changes, interest,
dividends and exchange rate differences.
(4.16) Other operating income and expenses
Other operating income and expense comprises realised gains/losses on disposal of inventory, intangible assets, and property
and equipment and all other gains/losses arising on sundry items that cannot be classified elsewhere.
(4.17) Dividend income
Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive the dividend is established. This is usually the date of the approval of
the dividend in case of equity instruments.
(4.18) Employee benefits
The Bank applies the requirements of the IAS 19 Employee benefits standard. Employee benefits are considerations given in
exchange for service rendered by employees.
Short-term employee benefits comprise of wages, salaries and social security contributions, short-term compensated
absences, rewards, bonuses and non-monetary benefits that are due to be settled within twelve months.
Long-term employee benefits comprise other bonuses and benefits payable more than twelve months after the reporting
period.
Post-employment benefits include defined pension contributions that result from state plan funded on a pay-as-you-go basis.
The Bank only recognises liabilities or benefits relating to termination benefits if it is demonstrably committed to terminate the
employment.
Employee benefits are reported as ‘Staff expenses’ and the significant items related to the standard are included in note (15)
Staff expenses.

(4.19) Income tax
Income tax for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent
that it relates to a business combination, or items recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive income. The Bank
considers the business tax and the innovation contribution as part of income tax.
Current tax is the calculated tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted
at the reporting date as well as any adjustments to tax payable in respect of previous years.
The Bank considers as income tax the corporate income tax, the local business tax and the innovation contribution as defined
by Hungarian tax laws.
Deferred tax is calculated using the balance sheet method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts
of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is measured
at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have
been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
The Bank has applied the temporarily applicable, mandatory exemption, which was published by the IASB in May 2023 related
to the international tax reform. This exemption applies to accounting requirements for deferred taxes according to IAS 12.
Respectively, the Bank does not consider taxes related to the OECD pillar 2 model rules for the calculation and presentation of
deferred tax assets and liabilities. The OECD pillar 2 model rules require a global minimum tax rate of 15 per cent on profits of
multinational corporations. This minimum tax regime was enacted as EU directive in December 2022 and had been translated
to Hungarian national law by 31 December 2023.
A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against
which the asset can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it
is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they arise in the same tax reporting group and relate to income taxes levied
by the same taxation authority, and when a legal right to offset exists.
Deferred tax relating to fair value re-measurement of financial assets which are charged or credited directly to other
comprehensive income, is also credited or charged directly to other comprehensive income and is subsequently recognised in
profit or loss when the accumulated fair value gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss.
(4.20) Share capital
Share capital is the sum of amounts paid by the owners for ordinary shares and preference shares at foundation or at the time
of any capital increase. Share capital is initially recognised at the time of registration by the court of registry in the amount
registered and set out in the deed of foundation. Share capital is measured at historical exchange rates, at carrying amount.
(4.21) Additional tier 1 capital
The Bank presents bonds (additional tier 1 capital) issued that – in accordance with IAS 32.16 – do not represent contractual
right to receive or obligation to deliver a fixed or determinable number of currency units as equity instruments in its financial
statements.
In the case such bonds are denominated in foreign currency, as non-monetary items, they are translated into the functional
currency, in accordance with IAS 21.23 b), at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction (historical exchange
rate).
(4.22) Government grants
Government grants are specific resources that relate to operating activities of the Bank and are transferred by the state
(government and its agencies) in return for compliance with certain conditions. These can be in several forms, such as grants
related to assets, grants related to income, forgivable loans, and low-interest loans.
The government grants are recognised by the Bank only when there is reasonable assurance that the Bank will comply with the
conditions attaching to them, and that the grants will be received.
The government grants are initially recognised at fair value according to IAS 20 standard. According to the income approach
the Bank records these grants in profit or loss over the period when the costs/expenses which are intended to be compensated
by the grant are recognised.

Measures of the NBH
Base rate and interest rate corridor
The base rate reduction continued in 2024, reducing it from 10.75% to 6.5% in several steps
Assets absorbing liquidity
The NBH applied its tools – including the transformed mandatory reserving system, the one-week discount bond and the long
term deposit tender – introduced in autumn 2022 and aiming at long-term absorbing of interbank liquidity frequently also in
2024, it held discount bond auctions weekly and continued to apply one-day deposit quick tenders and currency swaps.
Reserving system
For credit institutions subject to reserve requirements, the NBH imposes a 10 percent obligation for the liability categories
specified in the Reserve Regulation starting from 1 January 2024, instead of the 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 or 15 percent obligation that
could be chosen in 2023. The basis for calculating reserves has changed from end-of-month stock to monthly average.
Government measures
Retail benchmark interest rate stop (from 01.01.2022 to 30.06.2025)
On 24 December 2021, the Government Decree nr. 782/2021. (24.XII.) that fixed the interest of retail loans (interest cap) was
published.
The decree is applicable to retail mortgage loans with floating interest tied to benchmark interest rates (BUBOR), having an
interest period less than 3 year, typically 3 or 6-months interest periods. If such loan is under the repayment moratorium, the
interest maximization still applies for it.
According to the government decree, apart from the Section 1 17/D of the Act 2009 CLXII on loans to consumers, in case of
mortgage loans tied to benchmark interest rate, in the period from 1 January 2022 to 30 June 2022 the contractual benchmark
interest rate effective from the contractual repricing date after the entry into force of the decree, and the contractual
benchmark interest rate effective from the contractual repricing date preceding the entry into force of the Decree cannot be
higher than the contractual benchmark interest rate effective on 27 October 2021.
The Bank cannot add the sum of the forgiven interest either to the outstanding capital or to the outstanding interest due from
the affected debtors. On 1 January 2022 (or in case the benchmark interest rate for the current interest period is more
favourable than the above benchmark interest maximum, on the next repricing date), considering benchmark interest rate
fixed in the decree and applying unchanged contractual interest rate spread, the Bank sets the maximum applicable interest
determined by regulation for the affected loan contracts.
The Government extended the interest cap until 31.12.2022 by Government Decree 215/2022 (17.VI.) and later until 30.06.2023 by
Government Decree 390/2022 (14.X.), as well as extended it from 1 November 2022 to non-interest subsidised mortgage loan
contracts with interest rates fixed in interest periods up to 5 years.
In May 2023 the government decided on the prolongation of the interest cap until 31.12.2023, then in November 2023 set the
expiry date of retail interest cap as 1 July 2024
In June 2024, the government extended the measure until the end of 2024, and then in December for another six months, until
the end of June 2025.
Measures completed in 2024:
· SME interest rate stop
· Deposit interest rate cap
· Voluntary retail and SME APRI cap
· Restriction on transferability of central bank bonds.

NBH Circulars
During 2021, the NBH modified multiple times its already published management Circular about the use of macroeconomic
information and factors triggering significant increase in credit risk under IFRS 9. In 2022, 2023 and 2024, this Circular has only
been amended with regards to updating of the macro parameters that guide the forward-looking information. In 2022, the
Circular on the assessment of loans in the payment moratorium was updated by the NBH to include expectations for the
treatment of loans in moratorium 4 and the agricultural moratorium.
The Bank assesses its compliance with management circular as follows.
Corporate segment
The Bank transfers clients in corporate segment who opted-in for the repayment moratorium 2 (launched in 2021) or for the
agricultural moratorium (2022) to stage 2 based on risk monitoring – individual assessment of the potential deterioration of the
financial situation – in accordance with the guidelines of the NBH’s management circular. However, those clients are excluded
who participated altogether less than 9 months – in compliance with the EBA’s report about the moratoria updated in
December – in the first and second moratoria. If any single transaction of a client participated altogether more than 9 months
in the first and second moratoria, then the Bank performed the risk monitoring assessment in case the client was opting-in to
moratoria 2 launched in 2021.
The transactions of client already classified as stage 2 or stage 3 on participating at the start in moratorium 2 (launched in
2021) or agricultural moratorium (launched in 2022 and lasted until the end of 2023) were automatically flagged as
restructured.
Considering the fact that clients participating in the repayment moratorium 1 (launched in 2020) with their last due repayment
in 2020 were automatically transferred to repayment moratoria 2 (launched in 2021) , those client who notified the Bank during
their risk monitoring that they do not intend to participate in the repayment moratorium 2 with any of their transactions and
opted-out from the repayment moratorium 2 by declaration, the Bank did not establish financial difficulty and did not flag the
transaction as restructured. In respect of newly opted-in clients the Bank performed every single time the necessary risk
monitoring assessment and based on that transferred the clients to stage 2 in case of financial difficulty.
In case of financial difficulty identified as above and participation in repayment moratorium 2 the Bank also performs an
impairment test (impairment test considering the credit impaired triggers according to IFRS 9) for the purpose of identifying
potential non-performance.
When opting-in to the repayment moratorium 3 (launched in 2021) and moratorium 4 (launched in 2022) the Bank considered
the affected transactions as restructured and transferred them to stage 2 in every case. In case of these clients the default
assessment was completed through preforming the impairment test.
At the launch of the moratorium 4, which started in 2022, the remaining performing transactions – which were at that time
already classified as stage 2, flagged as restructured with an increased stage 2 allowance level – were repaid. The remaining
participating counterparties were classified as stage 3 and designated as restructured-non-performing. The stage 3
impairment was calculated using an individual assessment (net present value calculation of expected cash flow recoveries in
multiple scenarios), using a conservative (’banker's case’) approach.
Regardless of participation in the above programs, to cover risks for which there is no sufficient information to assess increase
in credit risk or to recalibrate models, but for which a significant increase in credit risk is likely, the Bank's management has
recognised an overlay impairment for the first time in 2020, with quarterly review and value adjustments since then
continuously, considering the whole portfolio.
During 2024, the previous extraordinary impact of the moratorium programs on the customer- and deal classification was
negligible. The repayment of the transactions affected by the moratorium is problem-free and the Bank will classifies them in
the course of its usual monitoring activities.
Retail segment
In accordance with the NBH’s management circular published on 21 January 2021, the Bank assumes that its clients
participating for more than 9 months in the repayment moratoria have or are expected to have financial difficulties, therefore
they were transferred to stage 2. Customers no longer eligible for moratorium 3 and moratorium 4 are still classified as stage 2
for a further 6 months after opting out from the moratorium. Moreover, at the beginning of moratorium 3 and moratorium 4
the Bank assessed for the clients opted in to these moratoria the need to classify the related balances as non-performing

based on triggers other than days past due, due to the occurrence of ’unlikely to pay’ conditions according to point a) of
Section 1 of CRR Article 178, with particular attention to the situation, when the client is in a difficult financial situation due to
unemployment. In cases where the Bank did not have sufficient information to assess the increase in credit risk, the Bank's
management recognised an overlay impairment for both transactions participating in moratorium 3 and in moratorium 4 to
cover the risks, followed by regular quarterly reviews.The Bank’ evaluates the affected exposures as part of its normal
monitoring processes, but in the current economic environment, it continues to maintain management adjustments to cover
risks not captured by the models.
(6) Financial risk management
(6.1) Introduction and overview
The Bank’s principles of managing interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, credit risk and liquidity risk are subject to regular
review performed by management and by the Board of Directors.
Risk management is operated completely independently from business areas. Credit risk management is operated by the
Credit Risk Management Department (CRM) in case of clients with non-standard products and services, and by Retail Risk
Management Department (RMM), in case of clients with standard products.
Individual credit risk analysis, credit rating, credit assessment and credit monitoring is performed by the Credit Risk
Management Department; portfolio level credit risk measurement and analysis of market (interest rate, foreign currency,
liquidity) risks and operational risks is performed by the Integrated Risk Assessment Department (IRD).
The Bank is exposed to the following risks:
· credit risk;
· market risk;
· liquidity risk;
· operational risk;
· environmental, social and governance risks.
This explanatory note describes the Bank’s exposure to the above risks, its objectives, policies and processes for measuring and
managing those risks and its capital management.
(6.2) Credit risk
Credit risk is a risk of financial loss arising from a customer’s or client’s non-performance of its contractual obligations. It
primarily arises from the Bank’s lending, commercial financing and leasing activities; however, it also might arise from specific
off-balance sheet products (e.g., guarantees) or from investment debt securities.
Credit risk management
Limits to lending activities are defined by the desired balance of business and risk considerations which are established by
Bank’s management, within the frame of the Act on Credit Institutions, other laws and regulations and the Bank’s Credit
Policies.
The Bank’s lending activity is primarily cash flow based, where the cash flows expected from the client’s core business activity
serve as the basis of repaying the loan. In certain cases, more emphasis is put on collateral value, expected future income from
the financed project, recovery rate of a portfolio or the combination of those. Accordingly, lending decisions are made based
on the amount of the loan requested, its term, the type of the product, financial situation, non-financial characteristics and
prospects of the client and on the collaterals.
Credit risk arises primarily from the non-performance risk related to banking activities involving retail and corporate clients,
banks and municipalities as borrowers. Non-performance risk is the risk that a client will not be able to fulfil its contractual
financial obligations. However, credit risk might also arise from migration risk, from the concentration of lenders, credit risk
mitigation techniques and from country risk.
Credit risk is the main risk factor within the Bank, which is also indicated by the internal and regulatory capital requirements.
Thus, the Bank assesses and monitors credit risk both on individual and on portfolio level. Credit risk management and lending

decisions are based on the corresponding credit policies, credit risk handbooks and on the tools and processes developed
specifically for this purpose.
Internal credit risk controlling system involves various types of monitoring measures which are closely integrated in the process
starting with the client’s application for a loan, continuing through Bank’s approval and ending with the repayment of the loan.
Losses arising from credit risk are accounted for by recognising impairment on individual and on portfolio level. In the latter
case, impairment is recognised for portfolios consisting of loans which have the same risk profile. In retail business unit,
impairment is recognised on the level of product portfolios.
Impairment associated with the credit risk of loans and advances to clients and banks is recognised in the amount of expected
credit loss and is based on group level standards. Impairment loss is recognised, if the present value of the principal and
interest amounts expected to be repaid – taken any collateral into account – is lower than the carrying amount of the
respective loan. Impairment on the portfolio level is calculated based on a valuation model that estimates future cash flows
expected from the loans in the portfolio based on historical loss experience, taking the economic environment and forecasts of
future economic conditions into account.
The Bank prepares integrated forecasts for provisions, impairment, capital requirement and profit and loss after tax and
performs stress testing. Based on expectations about the macroeconomic environment, the Bank estimates default rates and
their impact on the above amounts using statistical models. The period of the forecasts and stress scenarios is 3 years and the
Bank analyses Pillar I and Pillar II capital adequacy in case of both expected and pessimistic scenarios.
The Bank reacted to the financial difficulties of its clients caused by the financial and real economic crisis with restructuring
measures, introduction of early warning processes and strengthening of collection and debt management procedures.
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and increased geopolitical, energy market, inflation and
property market risks on the practices of recognising restructuring and default
The events that are under actions of the government decided until 31.03.2021 in order to mitigate the effects of the economic
crisis, according to the guidelines of EBA 1 should be considered as follows in relation to default:
· The exercise of a guarantee provided by the state or state organisation for mitigating the economic effects of the
crisis is not considered as a default event.
· The public repayment moratoria (‘public moratoria’) introduced in order to mitigate the economic effects of the
crisis, or the general moratoria introduced by the Bank (‘private moratoria’) is not considered as a financial difficulty
as long as the participation in such program does not last longer than 9 months. In this relation the general
moratoria introduced by the Bank is defined as a program, which is available for a clearly identifiable group of
clients and in this group the client’s financial and economic difficulties are not investigated individually.
· Under the repayment moratoria in the above point, the payment delay is not applicable, neither is the default upon
90+ past due status. The payment delay should be interpreted based on the new payment schedules after the end
the moratoria.
· Rescheduling of payments according to the above should not on their own be considered when assessing forced
restructuring.
· It does not automatically qualify for a bad financial situation, when the Bank introduces special attention and
monitoring for the closer tracking of some clients, therefore it does not indicate an automatic trigger for impairment
testing.
· The Bank still has to investigate individually the financial difficulties of these clients and whether other default
trigger exists, furthermore for contracts or modifications of contract not in the scope of the actions detailed above,
the general rules. This is disclosed in note (4.9) Financial instruments.
Government actions with condition other than described above, especially the repayment moratoria programs (moratorium 2,
3, 4 ang agricultural financing moratorium) and the benchmark interest rate stop launched in 2021 and 2022, are no exception
to the standard assessment obligation for restructuring and non-performance, therefore the Bank applies the standard
identification processes in these cases, in compliance with regulations of the CRR, EBA, RBI Bank, the NBH Decree Nr. 39/2016
and the NBH’s management circulars.
In 2024, the above described special classification rules related to the coronavirus crisis were not relevant anymore, given the
closure of the programs. The bank considers transactions previously classified as restructured or non-performing as potentially
cured under the normal recovery rules.

Compliance with prescriptions relating to sanctions
The Bank applies policies and procedures which ensure compliance with financial sanctions and embargoes its activities.
Furthermore, the Bank introduced appropriate monitoring and screening tools to ensure compliance with all regulations related
to sanctions, including but not limited to the sanctions imposed by the UN, the EU and the USA.
Credit risk management in the retail segment
Lending framework and risk policy in the retail segment
From the second half of 2022, the impact of inflation led to a decline in interest in personal loans and, within them, in housing
loans, which are the main volume drivers, compared to the lending performance of previous years. Then, in 2023, in line with the
consolidation of the interest rate environment, a gradual recovery in market demand for household loans could be observed.
Great attention is paid to strengthening online lending channels and automating loan approval steps and processes. In line
with the launch of the CSOK Plus program and the changes in the MNB's regulations, in 2024 housing loans up to 90% LTV
became available for first-time home buyers. At the end of the year, preparations for the introduction of the Workers' Loan
started, which will also be available to the customers from January 2025.
Micro and small enterprise segment
In 2024, new lending in the micro and small enterprise segment continued to be dominated by Széchenyi products. Taking into
account the impact of macroeconomic developments, the Bank fine-tuned its sector-specific risk appetite for new lending
during the year. The expected portfolio deterioration did not materialize, although there were differences at the industry level.
For the weaker performing client base as a result of macroeconomic developments, funding was restructured to maintain
solvency. The Bank further strengthened its analytical process control and risk framework in the micro and small enterprise
segment. The Bank regularly collects information from its clients and monitors the impact of macroeconomic developments to
maintain portfolio quality.
Impairment in the retail segment
In November 2020, the Bank - considering the ‘Management Circular about the use of macroeconomic information and factors
triggering significant increase in credit risk under IFRS 9’ published by NBH - decided to apply a portfolio level management
overlay, the so-called Post Model Adjustment. The underlying assumption for this was that the days-past-due (DPD) numbers
frozen due to the repayment moratoria did not reflect the real expected credit losses for the period after the moratoria.
At the end of June 2023, the management corrections relating to the moratoria were derecognised in the sixth month
following the cessation of the general payment moratorium, as the clients affected are thereafter assessed in course of the
normal monitoring processes and fall under past due days calculation thus not associated with excess risk.
However, due to the impact of energy market risks and increasing liquidity and profitability difficulties, the Bank again
introduced portfolio level management corrections in the micro and small enterprise segment in 2022.The Bank kept the
affected clients under close monitoring during 2023, but as a result of persistent inflationary pressures and the economic
downturn, the Bank did not see any reason to withdraw the corrections. As a result of the monitoring, the scope of the
affected transactions was redefined and expanded to include individual entrepreneurial clients financed in the retail segment
and employees of companies considered to be in a risky industry. In view of the slow but rising unemployment rate and the
much slower than expected recovery of the Hungarian economy, the Bank continued to maintain management overlays for the
most credit riskiest customer groups in 2024, which were fine-tuned in light of the results of ongoing customer monitoring due
to the risks not covered by the model.
Due to increasingly occurring extreme weather events, the problem of climate change became the focus of also the Bank’s
attention. The Bank worked out the practice to identify, quantify and manage such type of risks and implemented it into its risk
processes. The physical risk associated with ESG relates to the occurrence of extreme climate events and their impact on the
Bank's assets. Physical risks are not directly captured in the current IFRS 9 provisioning framework. If a physical risk event
occurs in a region, property in that region could be damaged or, in the worst case, completely destroyed. The physical risks of
the Bank's mortgage portfolio are assessed twice a year by an external data provider. When assessing physical risk, the Bank
assesses the probability of occurrence for each property in its mortgage portfolio. The assessment is performed using climate
models developed by the data provider. The ESG physical risk methodology for mortgage loans focuses on the damage caused
by potential physical risk events and the reduced market value of the property, resulting in an adjusted market value. The
adjusted market value has 3 components:
· The probability of a physical risk event occurring
· The percentage of loss, expressed as a percentage of the loss rate, if a physical risk event were to occur.
· The market value (MV) of the property.

The Bank has incorporated the results obtained in this way into the impairment calculation for residential mortgages through
the LGD parameter.
Credit risk management in the corporate segment
Lending framework and risk policy in the corporate segment
In case of the corporate segment, the Bank is regularly monitoring and reviewing to what extent its clients are affected by the
current macroeconomic and geopolitical risks and is trying to collect more and better information. As a result of the portfolio
screening, the Bank identified some particularly sensitive industries (e.g.,real estate finance, construction companies, retailers ,
vehicle production, companies with sensitivity to interest rates or exchange rate changes, companies with elevated refinancing
risk and companies exposed to environmental impact changes) where the exposures, industry outlooks and possible scenarios
were reviewed in detail and individually as well. The screening has still been running regularly ever since in case of the
corporate segment.
The Bank's corporate and project finance portfolio has no significant cross-border financing towards Russia and Ukraine. The
Bank has identified one client group which, in addition to its activities in Hungary, also has some independent activities in
Russia, which is not financed by the Bank. The exposure to the identified client group does not exceed 1% of the corporate
exposure. Indirect risks have not yet been identified also in 2023 and in 2024, but the occurrence of possible spreading effects
in 2025 cannot be completely excluded (e.g., future sanctions, disruption of supply chains, see gas, oil).
Furthermore, the RBI group reviewed its current lending policy for 2024 and introduced a limitation on the foreign exchange risk
arising during lending for clients without natural hedge, as well as ESG monitoring of the portfolio.
Identification and management of industry risks follows a well-established methodology, considering both short- and long-
term perspectives, and is based on a detailed analysis of a single set of criteria. As a result, sectors are classified into high/
medium/low risk categories on the basis of the industry risk matrix and the lending policy is accordingly tightened as follows:
· Clients in high-risk industries: new transactions and prolongations with existing clients should be handled with
special care and can be approved in special cases, acquisitions of new clients are to be avoided.
· Clients in moderate risk industries: prolongations may be performed, but new transactions shall only be concluded, if
based on a sensitivity analysis in case of a decrease in the client’s revenue, the Bank does not expect any significant
decline in the client’s rating. The accurate documentation of the sensitivity analysis is crucial to the decision.
· Clients in low-risk industries: continuing of the normal business in line with the lending policy in effect.
Review and adjustment of the general corporate lending framework in effect as well as corporate lending framework specific
to the type of financing:
· supplementing general lending policies
· applying the changes initiated by RBI and presented above,
· the risk profile of the clients needs to be investigated from the point of view of both the volume of supply/
demand and the potential damage of the supply chain,
· the flexibility of the cost structure needs to be analysed,
· when assessing the client’s financial situation, its short-term liquidity needs to be analysed (whether it is
able to cover its expenditures for the next 6-9 months),
· the existence and probability of the shareholders financial support should be assessed,
· further lending, if needed, is only allowed if the increased debt service is still in line with reference debt
ratios in the Bank’s risk policy, and the recovery is expected from primary sources,
· if debt reference ratios are significantly breached, the client is given PWO status,
· the elevated refinance risk and compliance with contractual conditions shall be assessed thoroughly, and
root cause of breaches shall analysed
· supplementing specific lending policies
· transactions with leverage: new transactions with the purpose of management-buy-out (MBO) and
acquisitions/buy-outs should be financed with particular care,
· FX, interest and loan derivative limits: the margin-call processes should be adhered to, clients with missing
or decreasing revenue easily could by over-hedged, therefore they could become exposed to the changes

of the underlying again, this consideration should be an integral part of the limit proposal, the interest
rate swaps concluded in relation to clients participating in the repayment moratoria should be modified
between the client and the Bank based on bilateral agreement,
· bridging loans related to capital market transactions: the Bank does not accept new proposals,
· non-project-related unsecured finance for property developers: the Bank accepts proposals only with
particular prudence,
· real estate financing: the Bank accepts proposals only with particular prudence,
· balloon-bullet transactions shall be approved with particular prudence.
Impairment in the corporate segment
The Banks impairment recognition was influenced in many ways by the current market conditions. Stage 1 and stage 2
impairment was directly affected by the changing macroeconomic forecasts (mainly GDP, unemployment rates, inflation,
government bond yields, short-term interest rates, changes in commercial real estate prices) provided by the RBI’s analytical
department which were updated a number of times during the year.
In 2022, the Bank re-modelled the impact of macroeconomic data on impairment, transitioning to a new model which, by
fitting to the current economic environment, results in a more prudent level of provisioning. In parallel, since 2020 the Bank has
applied the option of management overlay, post model adjustment in impairment recognition.
The post model adjustment model allocates impairment in addition to the model to industries identified along various factors
depending on how much they are exposed to these factors (e.g. real estate market repricing, rising interest rates, refinancing
risks, inflationary environment, supply chain difficulties, labour market shortages, changing environmental factors). The model
dynamically estimates deal-by-deal, based on the risk factors identified in the given period a ceteris paribus expected
probability of rating worsening and a corresponding expected probability of default and an expected increase in credit loss.
In 2024, the most important risk factors affecting the corporate portfolio playing a role in PMA calculation were the increased
increased interest rate environment, real estate market depreciation, inflation, labour market conditions, supply chain
vulnerabilities, refinancing risks and exposure to environmental factors. The industries identified as most risky were office real
estate, residential and commercial property development and constructions industry.
The (stage 2) indicators used in identifying increased credit risk profile were also supplemented by an indicator to take non-
modelled risks into account. Based on the post model adjustment using industry classification, clients for which the model
expects a significant rating deterioration were transferred to stage 2, thus impairment recognised for them covers the lifetime
expected credit loss.
Process of credit rating
Risk assessment and rating of corporate clients, project companies, companies acting in commodity and commerce financing
and municipality clients is based on individual assessment and rating, with regular financial monitoring and annual renewal of
limits. Financing is based on credit limits, at the transaction level only with simple approval method used.
In case of credit products for individuals, private banking clients and small and medium enterprises, an automated scorecard-
based assessment is in place.
Internal credit rating categories are as follows:
· Minimal risk:
· Non-retail portfolio: This rating category is reserved for corporates with the highest external credit ratings
(AAA) and for other special cases that are deemed to bear minimal risk (e.g., companies related to the
government, OECD countries rated AAA by an external credit rating agency).
· Retail portfolio: This rating category is reserved for the clients with the best credit ratings.
· Excellent credit standing:
· Non-retail portfolio: For all other clients this is the highest available rating category. Based on the
excellent profitability, financial obligations can be fulfilled at any time. Companies in this rating category
have a strong equity position and a sound financing structure.
· Retail portfolio: On the basis of an excellent income, financial obligations can be fulfilled at any time.
· Very good credit standing:

Separate financial statements
· Non-retail portfolio: On the basis of a very strong profitability the probability is very high that the client
can fulfil all payment obligations – both principal and interest – also in the long term. Companies in this
rating category also have a strong equity position and a sound financing structure and market position.
· Retail portfolio: On the basis of a high income the probability is very high that the client can fulfil all
payment obligations – both principal and interest – also on the long run. Clients in this category have a
comfortable financial situation.
· Good credit standing:
· Non-retail portfolio: On the basis of a strong profitability, it is expected that the client can fulfil all
financial obligations in the medium term. Good capital situation and sound financing structure.
· Retail portfolio: Based on a high income and sociodemographic position it is expected that the client can
fulfil all financial obligations in the medium term.
· Average credit standing:
· Non-retail portfolio: Based on a strong profitability, continuous principal repayments and interest
payments are expected. A reasonable balance sheet structure with a satisfactory equity base.
· Retail portfolio: Based on its sufficient credit capacity and sociodemographic position continuous principal
repayments and interest payments are expected.
· Acceptable credit standing:
· Non-retail portfolio: Based on satisfactory profitability, continuous principal repayments and interest
payments are expected. Increased sensitivity towards serious deterioration of economic environment.
Limited flexibility in financing.
· Retail portfolio: Based on satisfactory income and sociodemographic position, continuous principal
repayments and interest payments are expected. Increased sensitivity towards serious deterioration of
economic environment.
· Low credit standing:
· Non-retail portfolio: Clients in this rating category have a low profitability and their financial flexibility is
limited. Significant deterioration of economic parameters might have a negative impact on the timeliness
of principal repayments and interest payments. Their business fundamentals are below average and show
weaknesses in certain areas.
· Retail portfolio: Clients in this category have a lower income and a more limited credit capacity. Significant
deterioration of economic parameters might have a negative impact on the timeliness of principal
repayments and interest payments.
· Weak credit standing/below average:
· Non-retail portfolio: Companies with weak profitability and weak financing structure. Yet a lower
magnitude negative change in the economic environment can prevent the complete and timely fulfilment
of the financial obligations.
· Retail portfolio: Has a low income and an unfavourable sociodemographic position. Yet a lower magnitude
negative change in the economic environment can prevent the complete and timely fulfilment of the
financial obligations.
· Doubtful / high default risk:
· Non-retail portfolio: Companies with a very weak profitability and a problematic financing structure.
Partial losses on the principal or on interest should be envisaged.
· Retail portfolio: Has a very low income and an unfavourable sociodemographic position. Partial losses on
the principal or on interest are envisaged.
· Default:
· Occurred non-performance. The financial obligations could not or expected not to be fulfilled entirely and
timely.
· Unrated:

· Non-retail portfolio: Unrated exposures in the corporate sector mostly belong to the sub-segment under
the standardised approach (Article 150 of 575/2013 EU Regulation) and thus they, by definition, do not have
an internal credit rating (e.g., liabilities under litigation, settlement accounts with foreign exchange brokers
presented under other receivables).
· Retail portfolio: Unrated exposures in the retail sector mainly consist of negative account balances (based
on a special rule the Bank recognises 100% impairment on them), uncoded transactions, transactions
unrated due to data failure in a negligible number, subsidized or private loans under the standardised
approach, and certain loans provided to micro enterprises.
The following table reconciles relevant balance sheet line items with the financial asset classes determined for disclosure
purposes and with the loan commitments and financial guarantees financial instrument classes. ‘Provisions’ balance sheet line
item contains expected credit losses for loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts.

· Funding for Growth Scheme Phase 1
· Funding for Growth Scheme Phase 2
· Funding for Growth Scheme Phase 3
· Funding for Growth Scheme Fix
· Funding for Growth Scheme Go
The refinancing received and the loans granted under Funding Growth Schemes (FGS) are transactions concluded at off-
market terms. In these cases, in accordance with IFRS 9.5.1.1A and B5.1.2A, the Bank quantifies the fair value difference which is
amortised to net interest income over the term of the loans.
At the end of 2024 the net balances relating to the FGS Schemes described above amounted to HUF 80,524 million (2023: the
Bank had an FGS refinancing balance of HUF 88,655 million).

With its 2024 December decision, the government favourably modified the basic eligibility criteria of the childbirth incentive
loans (raising the application age from 30 to 35 years). In addition, the interest-subsidized housing loan product (CSOK Plusz) is
still available.
A new interest-subsidized and interest-free financing structure called ‘Munkáshitel’ (Worker’s loan) was launched at the
beginning of 2025. ‘Munkáshitel’ (Worker’s Loan) is an unpurposed cash loan with state guarantee available for young people
aged 17-25 who do not have a higher education degree and are not enrolled in a higher education institution as a student
Similar to competitors, the product was rolled out in the first half of January 2025.

Purchased or originated credit-impaired (POCI) financial instruments
The predominant part of the Bank’s POCI portfolio was recognised in the books of the Bank through the mandatory conversion
of foreign currency denominated loan receivables to Hungarian Forint at fixed exchange rates in accordance with Act XXXVIII of
2014 (‘Curia Act’), Act XL of 2014 (‘Settlement Act’), Act LXXVII of 2014 (‘Hungarian Forint Conversion Act’) and Act CXLV of 2015 on
questions relating to Hungarian Forint conversion of certain consumer loan contracts.
Changes to the portfolio
Net exposure towards credit institutions decreased significantly compared to the previous year (2024: HUF 756 billion; 2023: HUF
1,236 billion), attributable to significant decrease in the balance of the Bank’s current account at the National Bank.
In 2024, the volume of non-performing loans in the corporate segment increased by HUF 7.7 billion (2024: HUF 42.8 billion, 2023:
HUF 35.1 billion) along with a smaller increase of the portfolio (2024: HUF 1,360 billion; 2023: 1,297 billion).
The approximate HUF 7.7 billion increase in the non-performing portfolio was caused as a result of the following opposite
effects:
· besides the decreasing effect of recoveries of approximately HUF 9.2 billion resulting from workout activities;
· the Bank identified approximately HUF 15.2 billion new non-performing loans in course of its standard identification
procedures;
· HUF 0.07 billion was affected by write-off and loan sale;
· foreign currency revaluation difference on the non-performing portfolio caused by the weakening of the forint
increased the outstanding amount by approximately HUF 1.8 billion.
The level of new non-performing balances was dominated by three individual transactions (in aggregate HUF 13.5 billion, 89%
of the total new non-performing volume) where the Bank decided to apply non-performing status due to uncertainties of
future cash-flows. The events are isolated, no systematic deterioration or the indicators thereof can be seen in the non-
performing portfolio.
The ratio of non-performing loans in the corporate segment is 2.9%, slightly elevated compared to previous year.
There was an increase in retail and small enterprise portfolio in 2024 as well (2024: HUF 651 billion, 2023: HUF 613 billion). In the
retail sector, there was an increase in both mortgage loans and uncollateralised product groups, out of uncollateralised
products, childbirth incentive loans are mandatorily measured at fair value though profit or loss. Non-performing portfolio
decreased (2024. HUF 11.9 billion, 2023: HUF 18.4 billion). In the retail segment, unrated portfolio remained at the same level
(2024: HUF 155 billion, 2023: HUF 157 billion) the largest part of which is made up by childbirth incentive loans.
Expected credit losses
Quantification of expected credit losses for financial assets measured at amortised cost and financial assets measured at fair
value through other comprehensive income is performed in accordance with the respective accounting policies, see
explanatory note (4.9) Financial instruments.
The determination of the exposure necessary for credit risk management is a complex exercise and requires the application of
models as exposure changes depend on market conditions, expected cash flows and the passage of time. The assessment of
credit risk of the portfolio contains further estimations regarding the probability of default, the loss given default and the
correlations between different clients’ non-performance. The Bank measures credit risk using the probability of default (PD),
the risk exposure (EAD) and the expected loss due to default (LGD). This is the primary approach in measuring expected credit
losses under IFRS 9.
Expected credit losses are calculated by workout experts for stage 3 exposures towards sovereign and corporate clients, from
project financing, towards credit institutions, local and regional municipalities, insurance companies and collective investment
companies by discounting the expected recoveries from the cash flows using the effective interest rates. Expected recoveries
for multiple scenarios are given on the deal-level by the experts and probability-weighted average of the cash flows for each
return scenario is considered when calculating the present value of recoveries.
Measuring expected credit losses of financial assets measured at amortised cost and financial assets measured at fair value
through other comprehensive income is an area requiring the use of complex models and making significant assumptions
regarding future economic conditions and the behaviour of the loans. Significant estimates made in applying the accounting
requirements for expected credit losses are as follows:
· determining the criteria for significant increase in credit risk;
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
49
Separate financial statements
· selecting appropriate models for the purpose of measuring expected credit losses;
· determining the appropriate number of scenarios and the appropriate weighting of them for the product types,
markets and the expected credit losses associated with them;
· grouping similar financial assets into portfolios for the purpose of measuring expected credit losses.
PDs in retail portfolios (individuals and micro-enterprises) are estimated across homogenous segments and product portfolios,
while LGD estimation is typically more granular (portfolios with homogenous collaterals).
In case of non-retail portfolio, PDs are estimated at the segment level while LGD estimation involves more parameters
(segment, product, fact and level of collateralization).
Probability of default (PD)
Probability of default means the probability that the borrower will not fulfil its financial obligations in the following 12 months
or in the remaining lifetime of the financial instrument. In general, in case of non-retail segments the calculation of lifetime
probability of default uses 12 months expected probability of default in accordance with Article 178 CRR, cleared from the
conservative margin as a starting point. (In line with the definition of default in Article 178 CRR every financial asset that is
credit-impaired under IFRS 9 is considered to be in default, and every defaulted financial asset is considered credit-impaired).
In retail segments probability of default is calculated over the lifetime of the instrument, with modelling the probability of
monthly marginal default and repayments. In case of negative account balances the Bank records impairment for the total
receivable, therefore both the PD and LGD is 100%.
Following this, various statistical methods are used to determine how certain characteristics (amongst others rating, days past
due) evolve from initial recognition over the entire lifetime of the loan portfolio. The typical risk profile is based on historical
data and parameters.
The Bank uses statistical models to incorporate forward-looking information into PDs in case of the following segments:
· sovereigns, local and regional municipalities, insurance companies and collective investment companies;
· corporate clients, project financing and financial institutions;
· retail (individuals and micro-enterprises).
When certain input parameters are not available entirely, grouping, averaging and benchmarking is used for the purpose of the
calculations.
The following table presents the average PDs. When determining the average PDs, the Bank did not take into consideration the

Loss given default (LGD)
The loss given default is the Bank’s expectation about the magnitude of the loss. The loss rate expected at default is different
depending on the type of counterparty and product.
For non-retail segments, given the amount of data available and the weight of non-retail segments in the portfolio, modelling
is performed by Raiffeisen Bank International:
· in case of corporate clients, project financing, credit institutions, insurance companies and local and regional
municipalities, the Bank uses its own LGD estimations taking loss rate experience into account;
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
Separate financial statements
50
· loss given default for sovereign debts is estimated using market information sources;
· in case of investment funds, given the lack of loss experience, as expert estimation, the collateralised LGD
considered in capital adequacy calculations, is used.
In order to determine the LGD parameters the RBI modelling collects data from the group members, which is sent individually
to the central database by the entities. Thereafter, the central modelling calculates the LGD based on the data received and
country-specific information so, that it matches the lending information of the various entities.
Macroeconomic forecasts were also incorporated into LGDs that are based on own estimations. The Bank uses a weighted
average LGD over three scenarios when quantifying expected credit loss.
In the retail segment, the LGD estimate is based on the yield data collected by the Bank. Modelling is performed by the Bank on
its own based on the methodology approved by RBI. The model is validated by the IRB. Generally, for the purpose of calculating
impairment the Bank uses loss given default determined in accordance with CRR, cleared from conservative factors. In cases of
negative account balances the LGD is 100%.
Exposure at default (EAD)
Exposure at default is measured considering all amounts regarded by the Bank as receivable at an expected date of default
within the next 12 months or over the entire lifetime of the instrument. 12 month and lifetime EAD is determined taking the
expected repayment characteristics into account, which varies across product types. For amortising products and bullet-type
loans, EAD is based on contractual repayment obligations over the next 12 months or the lifetime of the instrument. Where
relevant, assumptions about prepayments and refinancing are considered while calculating EAD.
In case of non-retail segments, the Bank makes own estimations in order to quantify exposures at default of off-balance sheet
items for corporate and SMB portfolios that have so-called high probabilities of default. The credit conversion factors applied
are quantified using different methodologies for revolving and non-revolving exposures. Related modelling is performed by RBI.
This process is the same as the process described at the modelling of LGD parameters, i.e., various entities send data to the
central database, afterwards the central modelling calculates the EAD using this and other country-specific information so
that it matches the lending information of the various entities.
In case of retail portfolios, exposure at default is determined monthly taking the future expected principal repayments into
account. In case of revolving transactions, exposure at default is determined taking a credit conversion factor (CCF) into
account as follows: EAD = used facility + unused facility * CCF. The expected lifetime of revolving transactions is estimated
using statistical methods, which allows us to calculate lifetime expected credit losses also for such product types.
Forward-looking information
Assessment of whether credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition and the measurement of expected credit
losses are estimations incorporating also forward-looking information. The Bank performed a chronological analysis and
determined the most significant economic variables influencing credit risk and expected credit losses in case of each portfolio.
These economic variables and their impact on the probability of default, loss given default and exposure at default can vary
across types of categories. While making this analysis expert estimations were also used. The forecasts of the above economic
variables (‘base case economic scenario’) is provided by Raiffeisen Research quarterly, giving the best estimates of those
economic indicators for the following three years. The impact of those economic variables on the probability of default, loss
given default and exposure at default is determined by using statistical regressions in order to make the impact of historical
development of such variables on default rates, non-performing exposures and expected losses understandable.
The most important macroeconomic variables affecting expected credit losses are as follows:
· Non-retail portfolios: gross domestic product, unemployment rate, long-term (10 years) government bond yields,
change in real estate prices, 3-month benchmark interest rate.
· Retail portfolios: gross domestic product, housing price index, benchmark interest rate, inflation rate.
Besides the base economic scenario, a best case (optimistic) and a worst case (pessimistic) scenario is also provided by
Raiffeisen Research, together with their weighting (the weighting of the three scenarios: 25% optimistic, 50% base, 25%
pessimistic scenario), in order to grab expected variances. The weighting of the scenarios is determined by the combination of
statistical analysis and expert credit rating taken the outcomes of the selected individual scenarios into account. The
probability-weighted expected credit losses are determined by running the appropriate expected credit loss model to the
respective scenarios and weighting the results, the weights being the probabilities of the scenarios. The weights of the
scenarios (probability of the scenarios: 50% base, 25% optimistic, 25% pessimistic) remained the same in 2024.

As all economic forecasts, these estimates and their probabilities of occurrence are prone to significant uncertainties and thus
actual outcomes might significantly differ from forecasts. It is the Bank’s view that these forecasts represent the best
estimate of the possible results and cover eventual differences and asymmetries concerning the various portfolios of the Bank.
Post model adjustment and other specific risk factors
In situations where the existing input parameters, assumptions and modelling do not cover all relevant risk factors, post-model
adjustments (PMA) and specific risk factors are the most important types of overlays. This is generally the case if there are
temporary circumstances, time restrictions to adequately incorporate relevant new information into the rating and if individual
loans within a loan portfolio develop differently than originally expected. All these adjustments are approved locally and
centrally by the Group Risk Committee (GRC).
Generally, post-model adjustments are only a temporary solution to cover risks that are yet not captured by the existing
model. They are temporary and typically not valid for more than one to two years. Unlike the post-model adjustments, the
other specific risk factor model has a somewhat longer time horizon, as certain macroeconomic risks may persist for a longe r
period without the models being able to adequately reflect their risks. The overlays are shown in the table below and split
according to the relevant categories.

Other special risk factors in the corporate segment
For the corporate segment, the additional risk was considered using the Special Risk Factors (SRF) framework, primarily
accounting for unmodelled macroeconomic effects but also covering environmental risks as well as temporary compensations
of model weaknesses. The SRF model is based on expected downgrades of corporate clients due to the mentioned
circumstances.
At the end of 2024, the macroeconomic effects taken into account in special risk factors were high interest rate environment,
inflation, real estate revaluation risks, supply chain disruptions, labour market disruptions, increased refinancing risk and the
effects of changing environmental factors. Compared to the end of 2023, the Bank has discontinued the creation of overlays
covering for spill-over effect of energy price increases and has increased the focus on real estate market trends as well as risks
stemming from repricing in the elevated interest rate environment, elevated refinancing risk and environmental impact
changes. New elements were introduced in 2024: environmental risks were also incorporated in the SRF model and modelled
ECL was complemented in 2024 by additional impairment in form of an add-on overlay for expected life-time correction in
case of revolving and prolonged deals.
For corporate customers, in 2024 additional stage 1 and 2 impairments were recognized for macroeconomic risks in the
amount of HUF 13,447 million (compared to HUF 9,665 million in 2023), thereof HUF 10,054 million attributed to the economic
environment characterized by high inflation, increased interest rates, and uncertainties in the labour and real estate markets,
HUF 1,634.7 million for ESG risks and HUF 1,758.7 million for expected life-time add-on. At the core of the SRF model for
macroeconomic risks lies the identification of relationship between industries and the currently existing risk triggers as well as
evaluation of the severity of the connection resulting in an industry-level risk score. The additional impairment need is driven by
the scoring of the industries as well as the composition of the portfolio. In 2024, the portfolio-slice mostly targeted by SRF
addition was the real estate and other specialized lending project portfolio, but significant overlay was created for
construction, chemicals, automotive and agriculture segments as well.
Post model adjustments in the retail segment
The Bank consistently applies post-model adjustments to address credit risks in its retail and small business portfolios that are
not covered by the quantitative and qualitative stage criteria and models used for impairment calculations, thereby avoiding
under-provisioning in these segments. In case of post-model adjustments, the affected deals are placed under a lifetime
impairment calculation, into stage 2, and are assigned a higher probability of default (PD) parameter. The Hungarian economy
has faced significant challenges in recent years, resulting in a decline in consumer spending, demand for goods and services,
and a general economic downturn. Last year, the Bank continued to identify the riskiest industries and to apply stricter lending
standards to companies operating in these industries. In addition, the retail lending policy has also followed the tightening of
lending rules in the small business segment. The Bank has regularly reviewed the post-model adjustment introduced for these
portfolios in its monitoring processes, but has not yet seen sufficient justification for its full phase-out in 2024 due to the slow
economic recovery.

In 2024 and 2023, the effect of the changes in some of the estimation methodologies in the retails segments to the expected
credit loss allowance is presented in the column ‘Changes due to update in the methodology for estimation, net’.
The total of this year’s movements in expected credit losses include – within changes due to change in credit risk – in addition
to impairment presented in the line item ‘Impairment losses on financial assets’ the adjustments to the net exposure of credit-
impaired (stage 3) financial assets arising from the net interest calculation, which is presented in the line item ‘Interest income
calculated with the effective interest method’ in profit or loss (2024: HUF 4,242 million, 2023: HUF 2,872 million) as well as
decrease in loss allowances due to sale of exposures presented in profit or loss line item ‘Net gains/losses from derecognition
of financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value through profit or loss’ (2024: HUF 2,604 million, 2023: HUF 2,679
million).
Besides the above, the profit or loss line item ’Impairment losses on financial assets’ includes amounts derecognised due to
write-offs ( 2024: HUF 892 million, 2023: HUF 1,426 million) as well as the increase in profit from recoveries on purchased or
originated credit-impaired financial assets (2024 : HUF 1,088 million, 2023: HUF 1,419 million). The Bank continues to perform
collection activities in relation to its certain written-off financial assets. The contractual receivable amount from such financial
assets amounts to HUF 2,891 million (2023: HUF 2,726 million).
Contract modifications and expected credit losses
Also in 2024, there were contract modifications which did not lead to the derecognition of the financial asset. The pre-
modification amortised cost of financial assets so modified and for which lifetime expected credit loss was recognised,
amounted to HUF 140,569 million (2023: HUF 136,619 million), the associated net modification loss amounted to HUF 2,019 million
(2023: HUF 5,045 million) the largest portion of which was the loss arising from changes in present value of cash-flows of
transactions affected by the interest cap (2024: HUF 2,052 million, 2023: HUF 5,246 million).
Loans with renegotiated terms
Loans with renegotiated terms are loans which were restructured due to the deterioration of the financial situation of the
borrower. In such cases original contractual terms are modified to help the borrower overcome financial difficulties.
The definition of renegotiation (forborne) used by the Bank is based on EBA (EU) regulation 227/2015.
Non-retail: all types of receivables due from corporate and municipality clients and fiscal institutions may be subject to
renegotiations (loans, current account facilities, bonds, guarantees, factoring facilities and other financial assets).
The Bank regards its non-retail contracts to be restructured, where a forced renegotiation of the contractual terms occurs due
to financial difficulties, where concessions are granted by the Bank to the borrower under the modified contract which it would
not grant to other borrowers in the normal course of the business, with regards to the financial difficulties of the borrower, in
order to achieve full recovery.
Typical concession measures: extending the term, converting a revolving loan into an amortising loan, granting concession
period, standstill agreement, capitalisation of interests, favourable pricing, exempting from financial covenants, forgiveness of
principal or interest, conversion of the old transaction. In practice, similarly to the previous years, the most common concession
measures were the restructuring of terms and repayment amounts and conversion into an amortising loan.
The Bank will restructure clients entering moratorium 2 launched in 2021 and the agricultural moratorium launched in 2022, as
set out in the NBH's Management Circular, on the basis of individual risk monitoring on the corporate side, based on a specific
assessment of the potential deterioration of the financial situation. Exceptions include transactions that participated in the
first and second moratorium for less than 9 months in total, according to the EBA's updated report on the moratorium in
December. If a client has ever had even a single transaction that has spent more than 9 months in the first and second
moratorium in total, the Bank carried out a risk monitoring assessment for it in case of entering into moratorium 2 launched in
2021.
Customers participating in moratorium 2 in 2021 or in the agricultural moratorium in 2022 were already classified as stage 2 or
stage 3 and were automatically marked as restructured. Considering that the transactions that were included in moratorium 1
(launched in 2020) with a final expiration date in 2020 were automatically included in moratorium 2 (launched in 2021), for those
clients that indicated during the risk monitoring process that they did not exercise the option of moratorium 2 for any of their
transactions and that declared their withdrawal from moratorium 2, the Bank did not identify any financial difficulties and did
not mark the transaction as restructured. For all new entrants, the Bank carried out a risk monitoring assessment and on the
basis of that assessment, the Bank reclassified the client as a restructured client in case of financial difficulties.
During moratorium 3 launched in 2021 and moratorium 4 launched in 2022, the Bank identified all transactions as restructured
and classified them at least to stage 2. At the start of moratorium 4 in 2022, the performing exposures – which were at that
time classified to stage 2 and identified as restructured – were repaid. The remaining clients participating in the moratoria
were classified to stage 3 and designated as non-performing restructured.

Separate financial statements
In 2023, no changes occurred in the assessment of clients affected by the moratoria. By the reporting date in 2023 all payment
moratoria expired.
All types of retail loans (personal loans, credit cards, current account facilities, mortgages) might be subject to renegotiations.
The two main types of renegotiations:
· variations of renegotiations determined by the Bank;
· government programs.
The contract shall be regarded as associated with a concession, i.e., forborne based on the above, if
· the borrower is in financial difficulty and
· the terms and conditions of the contract were modified to grant a concession to the borrower (in the form of
conversion or modification) that the Bank would not grant to borrowers in normal financial situations.
A contract can be regarded as forborne – regardless of the modified conditions or actual past due status – if in course of the
contract modification the Bank is granting a concession and the borrower had at least once during the 3 months prior to the
contract modification contractual payments more than 30 days past due or the borrower was in a more than 30 days
delinquency at the date of contract modification or other factors are present evidencing the client’s financial difficulties.
Exposures associated with concessions (forborne exposures) are regarded by the Bank as restructured in accordance with the
Decree 39/2016 of NBH.
Restructured loan exposures of the Bank as at the reporting date are presented in the following tables:

Write-off of loans
Loans (and related loss allowances) are typically written off partially or in full when there are no realistic prospects of
recovering principal amount and, in case of collateralised loans, when cash inflows from foreclosure of the collateral were
received and further recovery from the loan is realistically no longer expected.

Collaterals
According to the credit policy of the Bank, the repayment capabilities of the borrower are considered in the course of lending
instead of excessively relying on collaterals. Depending on the credit standing of the customer and on product type, certain
facilities may be uncollateralised. Nevertheless, collaterals are important factors in credit risk mitigation.
As a general principle, when calculating collateral coverage, the Bank only considers collateral which is defined in the Raiffeisen
Bank International Group Collateral Evaluation and Management (Functional regulations) and complies with all of the following
requirements:
· legal enforceability;
· sustainable intrinsic value;
· realisable and willingness to realise;
· little or no correlation between the credit standing of the borrower and the value of the collateral.
The allocated Weighted Collateral Value (WCV) is the discounted fair value of the collaterals, reduced by prior ranking liens,
capped at the contractually pledged amount, applying a discount for currency mismatch (Hfx), and limited by the amount of
the covered contractual exposure.
The major types of collaterals accepted are as follows: mortgage on property, cash deposits, securities, pledge on machinery,
pledge on inventories, commodities, sureties and guarantees and other comfort factors.
Collateral and Risk Process Management Division of Credit Risk Management Department is responsible for the processes
related to collaterals (valuation and regular revaluation, real estate on-site visits, checking physical existence, monitoring of
coverage requirements, etc.).
The values of collaterals by type – represented by WCV capped at the value of the receivables – are presented in the following

Securitization
Securitization represents a particular form of refinancing and credit risk enhancement under which risks from loan agreements
are packaged into portfolios and placed with capital market investors. The objective of the Bank’s securitization transactions is
to relieve Bank’s regulatory total capital and to use additional refinancing sources.
No transfer of asset happens under synthetic securitization, no asset, only the risk is transferred from the initiator’s balance
sheet. The risk transfer is carried out by credit derivatives or guarantees.
The Bank signed a portfolio guarantee agreement commencing on 23 December 2022. The synthetic transaction is split into a
senior, a mezzanine and a junior tranche. The credit risk of the mezzanine tranche is guaranteed by institutional investors,
while the credit risk of the junior and senior tranches is retained by the Bank. In 2023 and in 2024, no new transactions occurred.

(6.3) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in
market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk.
Management of market risk
The objective of market risk management is to control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing
the return.
VaR (Value at Risk) limit system is operated by RBI where separate VaR limits are assigned to the different risk types: interest
rate risk of the trading book, interest rate risk of the banking book, equity price risk of the trading book, volatility risk and the
risk relating to the Bank’s aggregate foreign currency open position. Additionally, credit spread risk between bonds and money
market products is indicated as an individual risk factor in the reports as well.
During the past couple of years audit and control functions within the Bank became much stricter than before. New reports
were implemented for market risk related risk types. The Bank is carrying out daily market conformity monitoring activity, and
the results are presented on a regular basis to the Management.
The Bank developed various stress tests the results of which are also regularly presented to the Management.
The Bank manages its market risk exposure separately within trading and non-trading portfolios.
Trading portfolio includes positions arising from market-making, proprietary position-taking and other positions so designated
by the Bank that are valued based on mark-to-market pricing method. Trading activities include transactions with debt and
equity securities, foreign currencies and derivative financial instruments.
Non-trading portfolio (banking book) includes positions that arise from the interest rate management of the Bank’s retail and
commercial banking assets and liabilities. The Bank's non-trading activities encompass all activities other than accounted for
as trading transactions, including lending, accepting deposits, and issuing debt instruments.
A special interest rate model was introduced for the products in the banking book with no maturity, which was integrated also
into the risk reports.
Exposure to interest rate risk – trading and banking book
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of
changes in market interest rates. Interest rate risk is measured by the sensitivity analysis of the banking book’s net interest
income and of the mark-to-market value of the trading book to the volatility of interest rates.
Interest rate exposure is the most significant risk factor in the banking and trading book portfolios. On Bank level, strict Basis
Point Value limits and Value-at-risk (VaR) limits are defined, which are monitored on a daily basis.
The Bank’s interest-bearing financial instruments per interest type at the reporting dates are as follows:
Interest bearing financial instruments
The below tables include interest bearing non-derivative financial assets and liabilities measured at amortized cost and at fair
value. The amounts are net carrying amounts.

Changes are explained as follows:
· Fixed interest rate assets increased by HUF 498 billion (receivables due from NBH decreased by HUF 43 billion, loans
to customers decreased by HUF 2 billion and receivables from credit institutions decreased by HUF 28 billion, whereas
the amount of fixed interest rate securities increased by HUF 537 billion).
· In case of fixed interest rate liabilities, an increase of HUF 87 billion was observed (borrowings from NBH decreased
by HUF 6 billion, interbank borrowings banks decreased by HUF 30 billion, while customer deposits increased by HUF
102 billion and MREL bonds increased by HUF 19 billion).
· The balance of variable interest rate assets decreased by HUF 261 billion (the most significant changes were: the
nostro account balance at NBH decreased by HUF 418 billion, and EUR denominated loans to customers increased by
HUF 122 billion.
· The balance of variable interest rate liabilities increased by HUF 115 billion (of which the most significant change was
observed in case of client deposits: HUF deposits increased by HUF 183 billion, EUR deposits decreased by HUF 30
billion and USD deposits decreased by HUF 41 billion).
In order to ensure that interest rate risk exposures are maintained within acceptable limits, the Bank uses interest rate swaps
and other interest rate derivative agreements as primary risk management techniques.
The Bank uses derivatives designated in qualifying hedge relationships to hedge the fair value of certain fixed interest rate
loans, fixed interest rate deposits and fixed interest rate issued and purchased bonds. The Bank also has contracts to manage
its exposure to interest rate risk which are not designated in qualifying hedge relationships. The Bank presents interests on
derivative financial instruments – regardless of whether they are used for trading or for risk management purposes – in ’Net
interest income’. The Bank presents gains/losses on fair valuation (excluding accrued interest) in case of derivatives not
involved in hedge accounting in the profit or loss line item ’Net trading income and fair value result’ and in case of derivatives
involved in hedge accounting in the profit or loss line item ’Net gains/losses from hedge accounting’.
For risk management purposes, the Bank uses interest rate swaps involved in portfolio cash flow hedge accounting, where the
hedged portfolio is a group of foreign and local currency assets and liabilities, and the purpose of the hedge is to eliminate the
fluctuation of the interest income and expense that arises from changes in the base rates and the fluctuation of the
Hungarian forint exchange rate.
Information about the cash flow hedging instruments is included in note (10) Net gains/losses from hedge accounting.
Exposure to currency risk
Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in
foreign exchange rates. When calculating exposures to currency risk, the Bank takes the entire open position into account.

Net open position on balance sheet includes fair valuation adjustments due to interest rate risk on hedged items designated in
hedging relationships, whereas only notionals of derivatives are presented in the line ’Net derivative and spot position’. During
2024, a total fair value adjustment of net HUF 9 billion was recognised in the carrying amounts of hedged bonds, accounted for
in EUR.
The Bank defines strict limits for the open positions and uses VaR indicators as well. These limits are monitored on a daily basis.
Risk factors related to the foreign currency options are reflected in FX VaR figures. For derivatives related to options (gamma
and vega), additional limits are defined and monitored by the Bank on a daily basis.
Exposure to other price risk – trading book
Other price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in
market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk), whether those changes are caused by factors
specific to the individual financial instrument or its issuer, or factors affecting all similar financial instruments traded in the
market.
The Bank’s exposure to other price risk only arises from exposures to exchange traded equity instruments. The Bank defines
strict limits for open equity exposures and uses price risk VaR as well. These limits are monitored on a daily basis.

Tools for managing market risk – trading book and banking book
Value at risk
The principal tool used to measure and control market risk exposure within the Bank’s trading and banking portfolio is Value at
Risk (VaR). A VaR indicator shows the maximum loss of a financial instrument under a given period and confidence level, within
normal course of business. The VaR model used by the Bank is based upon a 99 percent confidence level and assumes a 10-
days holding period in case of trading book and a 250-days holding period in case of banking book. The VaR is a risk indicator
which must be assigned to the distribution of possible losses of the financial instrument. The Bank applies Monte Carlo VaR
calculation. Considering the trading book products, they can be divided into three risk factors – foreign currency, interest and
equity price – and risks are grouped according to this categorization.
VaR is not the sum of every single component (foreign currency risk, interest rate risk and equity price risk) as there is a
correlation between the components (diversification effect). Diversification effect results in a reduction of the overall risk of a
portfolio given that the individual risk components do not move together. Foreign currency risk, other price risk and interest
rate risk do not correlate with each other perfectly, thus diversification effect exists. The VaR figure is calculated on a daily
basis on the fundamental factors separately and on the entire group of factors as well. Diversification effect is not taken into
consideration by the Bank in case of capital requirement calculations.
A summary of the VaR positions representing the market risk exposure of the Bank’s trading and banking book is presented in
the tables below:

The reason of the increase of the banking book’s VaR position is that the Bank established a significant strategic interest
position that resulted in openness at the end of the year as well.
Gap and BPV report
Besides measuring VaR, interest rate risk is also estimated by using classical means of principal and interest maturity analysis.
In the gap report, the assets and liabilities are shown in different repricing categories according to the expected repricing
dates.
Repricing of assets or liabilities occurs when:
· they fall due;
· part of the principal is repaid according to the contract;
· the interest is repriced in accordance with the contract, based on a reference rate;
· the assets or liabilities are repaid before maturity.
The interest-bearing off-balance sheet items are managed as nominal deposits and loans.
The difference between assets and liabilities in the same repricing category is called a ‘gap’. The gap in a particular category is
positive when interest rate risk of assets exceeds that of liabilities, and negative in the opposite case. For the different
repricing categories, interest rate sensitivities, i.e., basis point values (BPV) are assigned. BPV shows the changes in the present
value of a certain repricing category’s position due to a 1 basis point parallel shift of the yield curve. BPV limits which were
approved by the parent bank are assigned for the repricing categories by currency.
BPV reports are presented in the below tables:

Netting arrangement related to derivative instruments
Derivative instruments are classified as assets if their fair values are positive and as liabilities if their fair values are negative.
According to IAS 32.42 derivative assets and liabilities arising from different transactions could only be presented net in the
statement of financial position, if the transactions are concluded with the same counterparty, an enforceable right exits to
offset the amounts presented and the parties intend to settle the cash-flows net. The netting arrangement concluded by the
Bank are enforceable only in certain circumstances and as a result financial assets and liabilities are presented gross in the
statement of financial position.

(6.4) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Bank will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with its financial liabilities.
Managing liquidity risk
The objective of liquidity management is to provide the necessary liquidity for the Bank to meet its liabilities when due at all
times, under both normal and stressed conditions.
Liquidity risk management is a key priority in RBI Group as well as in Raiffeisen Bank Zrt., thereby the Bank has a comprehensive
set of group-standards of the Group and local internal rules, regulations and practices beside the legal regulations regarding
liquidity requirements. Liquidity management procedures, tasks, responsibilities, reports and instructions for the limit systems
are all governed in Management directives of the Bank.
Liquidity management is one of the main tasks of the Asset Liability Committee (ALCO). ALCO is responsible for asset and
liability management, liquidity risk management and setting local limit system according to (or sometimes stricter than) the
limits determined by RBI Liquidity Risk Management. The ALCO meets monthly and has extraordinary meetings if necessary.
Besides internal liquidity risk reporting, RBI prepares a liquidity report based on data provided by the Bank on a daily basis in
order to monitor group wide liquidity risk.
The Bank’s liquidity policy which includes the liquidity contingency plan is reviewed annually. The Bank’s liquidity position is
stable, its liquidity risk exposure is low. The Bank does not use stand-by loan commitments for liquidity management purposes,
sufficient level of liquidity reserve is available without such commitments.
The following table shows the undiscounted cash flows from the Bank’s non-derivative financial liabilities, loan commitments
and issued financial guarantee contracts on the basis of their earliest possible maturity. The table also shows a maturity
analysis for derivative financial liabilities including the remaining contractual maturities for those derivatives for which
contractual maturities are essential for the understanding of the timing of the cash flows. The gross nominal outflow disclosed
in the following tables is the remaining contractual, undiscounted cash flow from the Bank’s non-derivative financial liabilities,
loan commitments and the issued financial guarantees. The disclosure for derivatives shows a gross inflow and outflow
amount for derivatives.

(6.5) Operational risk
Operational risk is the risk of direct or indirect loss arising from a wide variety of causes associated with the Bank’s processes,
personnel, technology, and infrastructure, and from external factors other than pure credit, market and liquidity risks.
Operational risk also includes risks arising from non-compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and generally
accepted standards of corporate behaviour. These risk types are inherent in each of the Bank’s business and internal
supporting activities.
The Bank’s objective is to manage operational risk so as to balance the avoidance of financial losses and damage to the Bank’s
reputation with overall cost effectiveness and to avoid control procedures that restrict initiative and creativity.
The Bank has an Operational Risk Management network consisting of a separate Operational Risk Controlling Group and a
centralised Fraud Risk Controlling Group and approximately 100 dedicated Operational Risk Specialists located in business
units, support departments, regions and at subsidiaries.
Operational Risk Controlling applies different tools to identify risks across all departments: key risk indicators; scenarios; control
and risk self-assessment; loss data collection and external databases.
The processes above are used to help identify risks early and are needed to reduce the occurrence of future loss events. The
loss events are uploaded by the dedicated operational risk specialists into a loss database and based on this and other
supplementary information (e.g., key risk indicators, status of risk mitigation plans), quarterly reports are created by
Operational and Fraud Risk Controlling.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
69
Separate financial statements
Operational and Fraud Risk Controlling gets strong management support. Operational risk issues and possible mitigation
measures are discussed quarterly at the Operational Risk and Fraud Committee meetings where the Chief Executive Officer,
the Chief Financial Officer, the Chief Risk Officer, the Chief Operations Officer, the Retail Banking Board member, the Corporate
Banking Board member and other members of the Committee (mainly heads of departments) are attended and decide on the
priority of risk mitigation plans. RBI CRO receives information about the most relevant Operational Risk issues through the CRO
meeting.
(6.6) Environmental, social and governance risks
Our planet, the biodiversity and the quality of our life is largely impacted by the natural factors making up the biological
system. The business activity of the financial sector has a significant impact on the environment and on society. However, this
is a two-way relationship, the finance sector itself is also affected by environmental and social factors. The two most
significant environmental effects of these times are climate change and biodiversity loss.
In terms of defining environmental, social and governance (ESG) risks, the Bank follows EBA’s position and take on a prudential
view when it comes to ESG, elaborating on the risks related to it, i.e. ‘ESG risks materialize when the ESG factors affecting
institutions’ counterparties have a negative impact on the financial performance or solvency of such market players’.  As ESG
refers to environmental, social and governance aspects, the Bank identifies the following risks from these aspects. The detailed
information about ESG related topics is disclosed in the separate and consolidated non-financial statement.
Key considerations of ESG risks
Environmental risks
Environmental risks are driven by environmental factors. They should be understood as the financial risks posed by the
institutions’ exposures to counterparties that may both potentially contribute to or be affected by climate change and other
forms of environmental degradation (such as air pollution, water pollution, scarcity of fresh water, land contamination,
biodiversity loss and deforestation).
The Bank identifies environmental risks as a result of the following factors:
· Transition-related risks: regulatory, technological and market changes that generate changes in the lending and
other risks arising in the course of banking activities related to climate change, environmental pollution and water
ecological processes.
· Physical risks: acute or chronic environmental events related to climate change, environmental pollution and aquatic
ecological processes that directly endanger the physical integrity and security of assets and/or customers financed
in the course of banking activities, thereby affecting their operability, income-generating capacity and value, as well
as the security of supply chains. Acute physical risks include: floods, storms, droughts, forest fires. Chronic physical
risks include: desertification, sea level rise, air and water quality, permanent deterioration of water volumes, and
persistent increase in temperature.
Social risks
Social risks arise from financial impact generated by misuse of human capital such the rights, well-being and interests of
people and communities.
Governance risks
Governance risks refer to the governance practice of the institutions’ counterparties, including the inclusion of ESG factors in
policies and procedures under the governance of the counterparties.
These risks affect:
· the value of the companies' assets, business model, income-generating capacity, supply chains, investable resources,
regulatory environment;
· household income, expenditure, and the value of their assets;
· and at the macroeconomic level, the value of capital assets, investment needs, productivity and competitiveness
levels, consumer preferences, and the related operation of public finances, interest rates and exchange rates.
These changes may be reflected in the Bank's operations as follows:
· credit risk: increased defaults, depreciation of collateral;
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
Separate financial statements
70
· market risk: unexpected changes in asset price movements that are difficult to predict;
· operational risk: vulnerabilities in supply chains, physical operational risks;
· liquidity risk: increased liquidity needs, refinancing risk;
· reputational risks: reputational damage due to inadequate management of the above, risks of being painted ‘green’.
Risk framework
The Bank takes these risks into account in its risk frameworks over different time horizons as follows:
Short term
Individual risks
The Bank implicitly takes into account the mentioned risks in the corporate customer base during the annual review and credit
approval process. In 2023, a modification of the lending process was introduced, in the course of which the Bank explicitly
analyses the environmental assessment of the customer and the loan objective on the business side ('ESG expert opinion') and
presents the identifiable environmental risk profile ('ESG risk assessment') as a separate part of the risk manager's position on
the risk side.
The Bank conducts an increasing number of surveys to its customers in order to obtain access to their sustainability data (in
the form of an electronic questionnaire). In the survey, in addition to estimated and factual data related to GHG emissions, the
Bank collects data on water and land use; waste production and environmental pollution characteristics. In addition to short-
term consideration, these data also serve as input for the assessment of medium-term (ESG score) and long-term (climate
scenarios). The Bank has taken note of the National Bank of Hungary's recommendation for a customer questionnaire in this
regard and will supplement its own questions with the minimum set of questions recommended, in the future, keeping in mind
the deadlines set.
The Bank is making efforts to obtain energy performance data for collaterals. Where the legal environment allows, it is a
mandatory condition to provide the related certificates in the case of new funding, and in the case of existing funding and/or
in the absence of a legal obligation, data collection is carried out on a ‘best effort’ basis within targeted campaigns.
The Bank has implemented sector-wide lending policies to define sustainability financing conditions. By the end of 2024, it has
established clear lending policies in the following sectors: tobacco, coal, renewable energy, oil and gas; steel, nuclear energy,
real estate and construction and related raw materials.
Portfolio risks
With the help of scientific methodologies (PCAFs) and estimates, measurements were made regarding the financed GHG
intensity of the corporate customer base, which is published in the separate and consolidated non-financial statement for
2024 as the first time, section ‘E1-6: Gross scopes 1, 2, 3 and total GHG emissions’.
For the corporate segment the additional risk arising from ESG factors was considered using the Special Risk Factors (SRF)
Framework, primarily to account for unmodelled macroeconomic effects but also to cover environmental risks as a temporary
compensations of the model weaknesses. More details are disclosed under note (6.2) Credit risk.
Mid-term
Individual risks
In 2022, the Bank introduced an ESG scoring system to assess customers in a standardized way from the environmental
perspective. The model was developed by the parent company (RBI), and its use is uniform for the medium-sized and large
corporate customers. The ESG score has no direct impact on the client's credit rating. The ESG model is based on an industry
base score, supplemented by an additional carbon dioxide emission factor. It is possible to deviate the industry average score
in this way in a positive or negative direction along individual customer specifics. During scoring, the risk analyst evaluates a
number of aspects based on the client's report, data reporting and disclosures, which, supplemented with the data of the
above-mentioned electronic questionnaire (where available), determines a final client score within the industry score limits. The
ESG score can provide guidance on the calibration of customers' expected environmental risks in the medium term, and as
such, it serves as input information for the above-mentioned sustainability assessments related to the lending process.
Portfolio risks
Based on the ESG Score mentioned above, the Bank plans to introduce portfolio management tools in the future (sub-portfolio
level measurements, targets and limits), which will be broken down to a local level based on the parent company's group-level
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024

Separate financial statements
limit management. In 2025, it is expected to introduce a monitoring process for the change in the average ESG Score of the
portfolio above 10%, as well as for the maximum amount of the part of the portfolio with the worst ESG Score.
Regarding the Group’s ambitions towards the 2015 Paris Agreement climate targets, the Bank committed to reducing its
financed GHG emissions by 17% by the end of 2030, based on the level measured at the end of 2023. The objective for the
corporate client portfolio has been formulated as an overarching target and was approved by the Board of Directors. In the
coming years, this effort is expected to be further developed and detailed sector-specific goals may be developed.
Long-term
Portfolio risks
A long-term Climate Stress Test has been prepared at the level of the RBI Group and its subsidiaries, taking into account the
above-mentioned customer and collateral sustainability data, along the scenarios defined by the EBA. The Bank's results have
been completed by the end of 2024, which examined the long-term impact of climate risks on the Bank's profitability and
capital adequacy in each scenario. The results show that the Bank is not exposed to significant risk overall over the 2030-40-50
time horizon, but there are portfolios that are more vulnerable under certain scenarios.
Reference to the non-financial disclosure
During the reporting period, it was determined that there are no financially material risks from climate change to the regular
risk parameters (market risk, credit risk, operational risk, and liquidity risk). The effects of climate change are only observed
through scenario analyses over longer periods. The effects from climate risks are incorporated into risk measurement and
limitation. Further information on the nature, extent and mitigation of climate change risk are available in the separate and
consolidated non-financial statement’s chapter IRO-1: ‘Process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities’.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty and critical accounting judgments
In the double materiality analysis for the separate and consolidated non-financial statement in 2024, the financial materiality
of sustainability matters was considered in the short, medium, and long-term. In the short term, defined as the reporting
period of the consolidated financial statements, it was assessed that there were no financially material risks from
sustainability matters. As a result, the consolidated financial statements do not include any separate disclosure on
sustainability related uncertainties that materially affect the estimation assumptions. In the long term, which is considered as
ten years onwards, there is also a low chance of a material impact on the credit risk of our customer portfolio due to climate
change transition risk. For more details, please see the separate and consolidated non-financial statement’s chapter IRO-1:
‘Process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities’.
(6.7) Capital management
The Bank’s local regulator (National Bank of Hungary (NBH)) sets and monitors capital requirements for the Bank.
With effect from 1 January 2008, the Bank is required to comply with the provisions of the Basel II framework in respect of
regulatory capital. The same stands for the Basel III requirements with effect from 30th June 2014.
The Bank as a member of Raiffeisen Bank International has been granted a joint approval in December 2008 by the Austrian
Financial Market Authority (home regulator) and the eight-member countries’ host authorities to adopt the use of Internal
Rating Based approach to credit risk management, except in respect of some credit portfolios which remain under standard
approach according to the accepted implementation plan.
Principal changes arising from the introduction of Basel III advanced approach were as follows:
· reduction of own funds with the negative difference between loss allowances and provisions for credit losses and
expected loss;
· addition of the positive difference between loss allowances and provisions for credit losses and expected loss up to
0.6% of the amount of risk-weighted exposure (under IRB approach) to tier 2 capital;
· own funds should cover the capital requirement of credit, market and operational risk.
A Bank’s own funds can be split into two tiers:
· Tier 1 capital (T1),
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
Separate financial statements
72
· common tier 1 capital (CET1) which includes common tier 1 capital instruments (share capital, share
premium, retained earnings, accumulated other comprehensive income, other reserves) and the related
deductions, namely deductions related to intangible assets, goodwill, deferred tax assets, IRB shortfall of
credit risk adjustment to expected loss, deductions due to securitization positions, and other deduction
due to exceeding limits,
· additional tier 1 capital (AT1): which includes capital instruments eligible as additional tier1 capital.
· Tier 2 capital (T-2), which includes subordinated loans and the excess of loss allowances and provisions for credit
losses over expected losses in case of loan portfolios for which the Basel III IRB method is applied.
There are also restrictions as to whether the amount of surplus of loss allowances and provisions for credit losses over
expected losses that may be included as part of tier 2 capital. Other deductions from own funds include the book value of
qualifying interests in other financial institutions.
Banking operations are categorised as either trading book or banking book transactions. Risk-weighted assets are determined
according to specified requirements that seek to reflect the varying levels of risk attached to assets and off-balance sheet
exposures. As noted above, the Basel II/III capital requirement also introduced a new requirement in respect of operational risk.
The Bank’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain
future development of the business. The impact of the level of capital on shareholders’ return is also important. The Bank
recognises the need to maintain a balance between the higher returns that might be possible with higher gearing and the
advantages and security from a sound capital position.
The Bank has complied with all regulatory capital requirements throughout the year of 2024. The capital position of the Bank
remained at a sound level throughout the year, aligned with its’ risk appetite.
Regulatory capital requirement
The Bank’s policy is to maintain the capital adequacy continuously above the required level and take any necessary actions on
time. The Bank applies regulatory capital (Basel III Pillar 1) as well as economic capital (Basel III Pillar 2, ICAAP) for calculating
capital adequacy. The Bank started a gradual transition to calculating capital requirements for credit risk via the Internal
Rating Based (IRB) approach, first introducing the Foundation Internal Ratings Based (F-IRB) approach for its non-retail portfolio
on 1st December 2008. Starting from July 2010 and April 2012, capital requirement for exposures to individuals and Micro-SME
customers respectively are measured by advanced IRB (A-IRB) method. Above the regulatory minimum capital requirement, the
Bank needs to keep additional capital for the following capital buffers: systemic risk buffer, capital conservation buffer,
systemically important institution buffer.
Systemically important institution buffer
The National Bank Hungary (NBH) reassessed in 2024 as well the importance of the domestic credit institutions based on 2023
year end data, and according to the assessment 7 Banking Group have been flagged as Other Systemically Important
Institutions (O-SII), including Raiffeisen Group.
Already from 2022, the NBH has been expected a gradual rebuilding of the buffers required for systemically important
institutions – which were released due to the extraordinary economical conditions caused by the coronavirus pandemic – until
2024. The capital positions of the systemically important banks are still adequate for the NBH to determine the buffers
prescribed from 2022 in line with the previously determined increasing pattern. Accordingly, the temporary buffer rates
increased also in 2024 by half of the planned final level and reached their target level in 2024. Accordingly, the planned final
amount will remain in force in 2025.

Anti-cyclical capital buffer
On 30 June 2022 the NBH activated the anti-cyclical buffer in their communication, in order to mitigate the systematic risks in
the lending and housing market. The NBH has been measuring a significant overpricing in the real estate market for the
quarters before June 2022, coupled with an increase of risks in the banking sector related to lending activities. Even though the
uncertainties in the past few months related to the war situation, these risks still did not moderate, so it became justified to
support the resistance of the banks with regulatory actions. Therefore, NBH’s Financial Stability Council increased the capital
requirements for banks and from 1 July 2024 it increased the ratio of the anti-cyclical buffer – for the first time since its
introduction 6 years ago – to 0.5%. Furthermore, an increase to 1 percent is planned from 1 July 2025.

Capital allocation
The allocation of capital between specific operations and activities is primarily driven by the aim to ensure sufficient capital to
cover possible risks in order to guarantee continuous safe banking operation (going concern principle) as well as to cover
occasionally high losses eventually to be incurred in extreme market circumstances, and secondarily, to optimise return on
equity of the Bank.
In order to quantify the risks, the Bank calculates capital both required by regulation and required economically, and
optimization is based on economic capital requirements.
The process of allocating capital to specific operations and activities is undertaken by Credit Risk Reporting and ICAAP Unit of
IRD, which is subject to review by the Bank’s Management. An additional tool for optimal capital allocation is the application of
risk and equity cost-based pricing.
The Bank’s principles in respect of capital management and allocation are regularly reviewed by the Board of Directors.

Net interest income of the Bank decreased by HUF 14,157million compared to the previous year. Both interest income and
interest expenses decreased, but the decrease in interest income was more significant.
There was a significant decline in interest income calculated with the effective interest method (a decrease of HUF 142,567
million), due to the lower interest rate environment and the Bank reducing its interbank placements with the MNB.
The primary reason for the HUF 65,689 million decrease in interest expense calculated with the effective interest method was
the lower interest paid on customer deposits and interbank repo transactions.
Interest on securities measured at fair value through other comprehensive income improved interest income to a lesser extent,
with an increase of HUF 5,688 million.
Net interest income was significantly boosted by the interest income from derivatives (an improvement of HUF 29,442 million in
trading interest income), while the interest result on debt securities held for trading slightly reduced it (a decrease of HUF 499
million).
There was an increase of HUF 2,480 million in interest income from loans mandatorily measured at fair value through profit or
loss, thanks to the childbirth incentive loans.
Net interest income on derivative instruments designated in cash-flow and fair value hedging relationships also contributed to
the increase in interest income, with an increase of HUF 24,389 million.

Net fee and commission income of the Bank increased by HUF 11,673 million compared to last year and this was primarily due
to increase in payment service fees (HUF 9,410 million).
Within payment service fees, commissions relating to transfers and other settlement transactions that increased
extraordinarily but the increase in bank card fees and in fees related to account maintenance was also outstanding.
Although to a lower extent, fees relating to distribution of securities (investment funds) and stock exchange orders, fees
included in foreign exchange conversions and other transactions and agent fees (fees for mediating insurance services) also
positively impacted net commission income.
The net fee and commission income decreased somewhat due to the Bank receiving fewer corporate financial advisory fees
during 2024.

The result on derivatives held for trading increased by HUF 33,691 million. This was mainly due to an increase of HUF 33,156
million in realised and unrealised gains and losses on FX swaps, forwards and futures.
The result of the line ‘Derivative instruments – held for risk management (not in hedge accounting)’ increased by HUF 60,904
million, partly due to an increase of HUF 44,074 million in FX swaps, forwards and futures and an increase of HUF 16,830 million
in the result on interest rate derivatives.
The result of the ‘Debt securities’ line decreased by HUF 563 million compared to last year. In total: government bonds reduced
the result by HUF 450 million, other bonds by HUF 286 million and treasury bills improved the result by HUF 148 million.

Net gain arising from fair valuation of interest rate swaps and cross-currency interest rate swaps hedging purchased bonds
amounted to HUF 6,519 million in 2024 (in 2023 HUF 63,917 million loss). Gain from fair valuation of interest rate swaps hedging
received deposits amounted to HUF 1,951 million in 2024 (in 2023 HUF 8,050 million gain). On interest rate swaps, hedging
received deposit portfolios, a fair valuation gain of HUF 8,510 million was recognised in 2024 (in 2023 HUF 110,588 million gain). In
2024 net fair valuation loss on interest rate swaps, hedging loans advanced, amounted to HUF 3,033 (in 2023 HUF 8,591 million
loss). In 2024, gain on fair valuation of interest rate swaps, hedging issued bonds involved in hedge accounting, amounted to
HUF 2,116 million (in 2023 HUF 6,125 million gain), out of which HUF 2,111 million gain (in 2023 HUF 6,071 million gain) relates to
MREL bond issue. In relation to interest rate swaps, hedging loan portfolio, in 2024 a loss of HUF 1,473 million (in 2023 a loss of
13,927 million) was recognised in 'Net gains/losses from hedge accounting’.
In 2024, a fair valuation result of HUF -6,560 million (in 2023 HUF 63,912 million) was recognised on purchased bond, HUF -1,946
million (in 2023 HUF -8,014 million) on hedged received deposits, HUF 3,059 million (in 2023 HUF 8,641 million) on hedged loans,
HUF -2,008 million (in 2023 HUF -6,129 million) on hedged own issued bonds thereof HUF 2,004 million (in 2023 HUF -6,070 million)
relates to MREL bonds. On hedged received deposit portfolio a fair valuation result of HUF -5,430 million (in 2023 HUF -111,174
million), in relation to hedged loan portfolio HUF 1,537 million (in 2023 HUF 13,010 million) was recognised.
During 2024, the forint interest rate swap curve steepened with significant intra-year volatility. The NBH cut the base rate from
10.75% to 6.5%, which brought the short end of the curve lower. However, long-term interest rate expectations increased, so
the 10-year swap rate increased from 5.78% to 6.84%. The net gain from hedge accounting in 2024 was primarily generated on
portfolio fair value hedges hedging the modelled current account balance. This was primarily due to maturity mismatches
between the modelled portfolios and the hedging interest rate swap portfolios.
Cash flow hedges
The Bank has applied cash flow hedge accounting since December 2012, using interest rate swaps and cross currency interest
rate swaps to hedge interest rate risk and foreign currency risk arising from loan portfolio denominated in foreign currency
and received deposit portfolio denominated in HUF.

Discontinued hedges’ column: Amounts presented here arise from discontinued hedge relationships where the hedged cash flows are expected to occur. These amounts
are recognised to profit or loss as the hedged cash flows affect profit or loss or when it becomes known that the hedged cash flows are no longer expected to occur
(when the Bank reclassifies the entire amount from equity to profit or loss).
The Bank designates loan receivables and deposits received, denominated in HUF or in EUR, bearing variable interest rate,
having yearly or less than yearly payment frequencies as hedged items. Loan receivables designated as hedged items in cash
flow hedge relationships are presented in the statement of financial position line item ’Financial assets measured at amortised
cost’ and received deposits so designated are presented in the statement of financial position line item ’Financial liabilities
measured at amortised cost’.
In 2024, HUF 11,005 million loss (2023: HUF 10,550 million gain) was recognised in other comprehensive income relating to the
effective portion of fair value changes of hedging instruments designated in cash flow hedging relationships existing at
31.12.2024 or discontinued earlier. These amounts include reclassifications between other comprehensive income and profit or
loss arising from the systematic amortisation of hedge reserves to profit or loss, relating to cash flow hedging relationships
discontinued before 2024 or 2023. In 2024, HUF 2,604 million gain (2023: HUF 244 million gain) was reclassified to profit or loss
relating to discontinued cash flow hedging relationships and the Bank presented these amounts within ‘Net gains/losses from
hedge accounting’. During 2024, HUF 2,368 million loss (2023: HUF 326 million loss) was recognised in the same line relating to
the ineffectiveness of hedging instruments designated in cash flow hedging relationships existing at 31.12.2024.

Discontinued hedges’ column: The Bank begins to amortise fair value adjustments to the carrying amounts of hedged items to profit or loss from the date when the
hedged items cease to be adjusted for changes in their fair values attributable to the risk being hedged, i.e., from the date when the hedge relationship is discontinued.
Carrying amounts of purchased bonds designated as hedged items in fair value hedge relationships are included in the
statement of financial position line item ‘Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income’ and
Financial assets measured at amortised cost’, carrying amounts of loan receivables so designated are included in the
statement of financial position line item ‘Financial assets measured at amortised cost’, whereas carrying amounts of deposits
and bonds issued so designated are included in the statement of financial position line item ‘Financial liabilities measured at
amortised cost’. Adjustments to the carrying amount of hedged loan and deposit portfolios for changes in their fair values
attributable to the hedged risk – excluding accrued interests – are presented separately in the statement of financial position,
in line item ’Fair value changes of the hedged items in portfolio hedge of interest rate risk’, regardless of their sign, the loan
portfolio related items are always on the asset side while the fair value of the deposit portfolio are always on the liability side.
In 2024, result from fair value changes of hedged items in designated fair value hedging relationships attributable to the
hedged risk amounted to HUF 11,348 million loss (in 2023: HUF 39,754 million loss) which is presented by the Bank in the
statement of profit or loss line item ’Net gains/losses from hedge accounting’.
The Bank recognised a gain of HUF 14,590 million in 2024 in relation to derivatives designated as hedging instruments in fair
value hedges (in 2023 a gain of HUF 38,328 million), presented in the statement of profit or loss line item ’Net gains/losses from
hedge accounting’.

Surtax of financial institutions is levied on the modified total assets as at the end of the second preceding tax year. Tax rate is
0.15%  for the portion of tax base not exceeding HUF 50 billion and 0.20% for the exceeding portion.  While calculating the
modified total assets, certain inter-bank loans and deposits and certain debt instruments issued by financial institutions are
deductible. :The surtax amounted to HUF 7,878 million in 2024 (2023: HUF 6,994 million).
In 2024, the Bank paid extra profit tax based on  its modified profit before tax for the year 2022. The basis for the special tax is
the profit before tax for the year 2022, reduced by dividends received, the profit generated outside the scope of regular
activities, and increased by the surtax for financial organizations, the extra profit tax, and the transaction fee for the year
2022. The extra-profit tax rate in 2024 is 13% on the portion of the tax base not exceeding HUF 20 billion, and 30% on the
portion exceeding this amount. The extra-profit surtax amounted to HUF 17,216 million in 2024
In the first half of 2023, the tax base was 50% of the adjusted value of the 2022 revenue according to the local business tax,
with a tax rate of 8%. For the second half of 2023, the tax base was 50% of the adjusted value of the 2022 pre-tax profit, with
a tax rate of 13% on the portion of the tax base below HUF 10 billion and 30% on the portion above this amount. The extra
profit tax calculated in this manner amounted to HUF 27,893 million in 2023.
In accordance with the Act on Resolution, the Bank pays a yearly membership fee to the Resolution Fund, the calculation
methodology of which is transparent and uniform across the European Union and is established by European Commission
Regulation. According to the regulation, yearly membership fees payable by the institutions are calculated by NBH acting in its
resolution capacity. NBH notifies the institutions of the fee payable until 1 May of each year. Yearly fees payable by the
institutions shall be determined so that the value of Resolution Fund’s assets until 31 December 2024 – spread evenly over that
period – reaches at least 1% of the portion of insured deposits not exceeding the EUR 100,000 indemnification threshold, placed
with credit institutions licensed in Hungary (target level). The Bank qualifies as an institution obliged to pay a risk-based fee.
Risk-based fees are calculated so that the yearly target value, reduced by the fixed fees payable by limited activity investment
undertakings and by the progressive fixed fees, is allocated amongst the institutions obliged to pay a risk-based fee in
proportion of their fee base adjusted by a risk adjustment multiplier.
The Bank recognized the payable extra surtax due to the pandemic as a liability in its entire amount, and paid that amount in
2020, so this liability is not presented in the financial statement at year end. Since the Bank is entitled to a tax retention related
to the normal surtax until 2025, the Bank did not present an expense against the liability for the extra surtax due to the
pandemic, but an asset (please see note (26) Other assets). Considering the right for the tax retention, the payment embodies
an advance payment for the normal surtax.

Current account with National Bank of Hungary (NBH) contains the minimum mandatory reserves. The average balance of
prescribed minimum reserve was HUF 317,518 million (2023: HUF 309,156 million). The amount of mandatory reserve is the
liabilities subject to reserving obligation multiplied by the minimum reserve rate.
Required reserves shall be kept in respect of the following liability categories:
· deposits and loans received with an original maturity within two years,
· debt securities with an original maturity within two years,
· repurchase agreements.
No required reserves shall be kept after liabilities owed to other credit institutions that are obliged to keep mandatory reserves
and after loans received from the NBH.
The Bank can use its minimum reserve in its daily operation, as long as the daily balance and the monthly average balance of
the reserve is more than or equal to the legislative limit. Based on this reasoning the Bank presents the minimum reserves as
cash in the cash-flow statement.

The Monetary Council decided on 21 November 2017 to introduce further non-conventional vehicles from January 2018. One of
these vehicles is the general, unconditional monetary policy interest rate swap (MIRS). The aim of introducing that vehicle was
that the loose monetary conditions also prevail on the longer-term section of the yield curve and to increase the proportion of
loans with longer fixed interest periods.
Banks could apply for 5 and 10-year MIRSs introduced as general monetary policy vehicle, at tenders written by NBH, in
proportion of their total assets. A difference compared to previous IRS programs of the central bank was that MIRS is
unconditional. The Bank utilised the amount allocated. The application of the vehicle made it possible for the Bank to
strengthen its fixed interest rate lending.
MIRS was concluded with the banks on terms announced by NBH which were more favourable than current market conditions.
Initial fair values of those derivatives were estimated using discounting based on yield curves built from quoted market prices
of IRS transactions with various terms, available at the date of announcement of the tenders. On initial recognition, the Bank
recognised the difference between the fair value and the transaction price in profit or loss.
During 2018, the Bank concluded MIRS interest rate swaps in a nominal amount of HUF 95,136 million, there were no new
transactions since that. As at 31.12.2024, the carrying amount of these swaps was HUF 9,600 million asset (HUF 11,116 million
asset as at 31.12.2023). Fair valuation loss recognised in relation to MIRS's, amounting to HUF 805 million (HUF 14,178 million loss
in 2023) was presented in the statement of profit or loss line item Net trading income and fair value result.

The Bank elected to measure its other equity instruments that it does not control at fair value through other comprehensive
income and as a consequence it never recognises changes in their fair values in profit or loss. The reason for this election is
that these interests do not serve the Bank’s profit generation but facilitate the performance of various banking services (e.g.,
credit card business, payment transaction services, etc.).

Unlisted investment securities are included in the statement of financial position line item ’Financial assets measured at fair
value through other comprehensive income’. In 2024, changes in book values were due partly to changes in fair values and
partly to an increase in SWIFT through the reallocation of shares. In 2023, in addition to changes in fair values, there was also a
sale:, the investment in RC Gazdasági és Adótanácsadó Zrt was sold and with the sale HUF 21 million was reclassified from
other comprehensive income to retained earnings. The Bank did not recognise dividend related to the above equity
instruments.

In the book value of “Intangible assets”, the Bank recorded expenses of HUF 2,950 million in 2024 (2023: HUF 1,956 million).  As of
31 December 2024, ‘Property’ includes HUF 21,986 million (2023: HUF 24,052 million) and ‘Equipment’ includes HUF 1 million (2023:
HUF 0 million) right-of-use assets.
The Bank recognised expenses amounting to HUF 2,950 million in the carrying amount of intangible assets, in course of
developing intangible assets (2023: HUF 1,956 million).
(25) Leases
The Bank acting as a lessee (IFRS 16)
The Bank leases properties, typically office premises and branches and vehicles. Property lease contracts usually have a 3- or
5-year rental term, in respect of which 3- or 5-year extension options were agreed. In case of contracts with shorter term, 1- or
2-year extension options were agreed. The contracts with indefinite term have a one-year notice period.
The Bank moved into a new head office in 2020. The contract for new head office was recognised in June 2020 with an original
term of 10 years considering a 5-year extension option, in the total amount of HUF 15,295 million. The present value was
calculated with an incremental borrowing rate of 2.28%.
The vehicles have 6 years of rental term in all cases, with no extension options.
Furthermore, the Bank leases IT equipment, however they either qualify as short-term leases or the underlying asset is a low-
value asset, thus the Bank – based on its election – does not recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for them.
The Bank has no sale and leaseback arrangements.
Right-of-use assets
Right-of-use assets related to leased properties and vehicles are presented within property and equipment (see note (24)
Tangible and intangible fixed assets).

In 2024, the balance of other assets increased by HUF 363 million, mainly due to the increase of prepayments and accrued
income (HUF 664 million) and decrease in properties repossessed against receivables (HUF 421 million).
Within accruals, the active accrual of fees increased significantly (HUF (1.387 million), while the accrual of costs and expenses
decreased slightly (HUF 441 million). Additionally, the interest accruals related to securities received under reverse repurchase
agreements also decreased compared to the previous year (HUF 448 million).
The balance of other assets in 2024 increased slightly due to tax receivables. In 2020, due to the pandemic situation, the
government introduced a special surtax on credit institutions, which was paid in three equal instalments at that time.
Originally, the Bank could have reduced the amount of the 'normal' surtax payable, as determined by the surtax law, by the

amount shown as receivables in the form of tax withholding over the next five years. However, due to an amendment to the
law, this reduction cannot be applied for the 2024 tax year and will instead be realized in the 6th tax year.
From its revenue under IFRS 15 the Bank includes in its statement of financial position as accrued assets HUF 1,477 million (2023:

Separate financial statements
The consideration for the 500 pieces of dematerialised bonds with a nominal value of EUR 200,000 each was paid on 13 March
2019. The bonds are perpetual, carry variable interest, the amount of which is 12-month EURIBOR plus 9%. The interest shall be
paid in the currency of the bond on 30 May each year. Considering that the issued bond is perpetual and the bondholder is not
entitled to redeem it, and the fact that any payments to be effected under the terms and conditions of the bonds, including
any interests and any payments arising from any redemption or recall events specified in the contract are at the sole
discretion of the Bank i.e., the Bank has no contractual obligation to effect those payments, the amount received from the
issue is considered as equity and the interest paid on it is considered as dividend. The equity item is recognised in HUF in the
books. The Bank is entitled to recall or repay in the events specified in the terms and conditions.
The Bank issued a nominal value bond in amount of EUR 40,000,000 (200 pieces with a nominal value of EUR 200,000) named as
Raiffeisen EUR AT1 with value date of 25 January 2023. The bonds are additional basic capital instruments marketed privately
without maturity. The interest rate is fixed at 11.597% for the first year, followed by the 1-year mid-swap rate plus 9%.
In 2024, the Bank paid HUF 6,855 million (2023: HUF 4,081 million) dividend on the AT1 capital.
(38) Accumulated other comprehensive income
Accumulated other comprehensive income includes accumulated net fair value changes of investments measured at fair value
through other comprehensive income.
In case of debt securities, unrealised fair value is included in this statement of financial position line item until derecognition of
the debt securities or until they become impaired; after that gain or loss on derecognition is recognised to profit or loss.
In case of equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income any gain or loss on derecognition is
directly recognised to equity, on line item ‘Retained earnings’ (a reclassification between accumulated other comprehensive
income and retained earnings).
In addition to the above, accumulated other comprehensive income also contains the effective portion of fair value changes of
hedging instruments designated in cash flow hedges and deferred tax related to the above items.
(39) Other reserves
General reserve is included under ‘Other reserves’, in accordance with Act CCXXXVII of 2013, chapter 38 section 83. According to
these prescriptions, a credit institution shall transfer 10% of its net profit for the period to general reserve. As a re-
appropriation within equity the Bank set up general reserve amounting to HUF 11,451 million in 2024 (2023: HUF 9,928 million).
(40) Retained earnings
The line item ‘Retained earnings’ includes undistributed profit or loss of the current and previous periods.
(41) Contingent liabilities and commitments

The Bank also provides guarantees and accreditives to its clients whereby it guarantees that clients fulfil their obligations
towards third parties.
The following table contains the contractual amounts of contingent liabilities and commitments per categories. The amounts
presented in the table below show the total amount committed in case of loan commitments. In case of guarantees and other

Provisions’ columns: Accumulated negative fair value changes attributable to changes in credit risk in case of non-performing commitments
Contingent liabilities and commitments bear off-balance sheet credit risk as only the related fees, commissions and provisions
for future expected losses are included in the statement of financial position until fulfilment or expiry of such obligations. A
significant number of such off-balance sheet items expire without utilising them fully or partially. Consequently, the above
amounts do not represent future expected cash flows.
(42) Determination of fair value
In order to determine fair values of financial assets and liabilities for which no observable market prices are available, it is
necessary to apply valuation techniques in accordance with the accounting policies. In case of financial instruments traded
less frequently and whose prices are less transparent, fair value is less objective and determining it requires judgement to
various extents depending on liquidity, concentration, uncertainties in market variables, pricing assumptions and other risks
relating to the specific instrument. Please see the below section ’Valuation of financial instruments, fair value hierarchy’.
Critical judgements in applying the Bank’s accounting policies
The following are critical judgements made in applying the Bank’s accounting policies:
Valuation of financial instruments, fair value hierarchy
The Bank ’s accounting policy on fair value measurements is discussed in note (4.8) Determination of fair value.
The Bank measures fair value using the following hierarchy of methods:
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs are based on directly or indirectly observable information, however, the relation of them to the market pricing of
the financial asset or liability is more indirect. These may be the following:
· quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active market;
· quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active and this does not represent
reliably the assessment of market participant at the valuation date;
· inputs other than quoted prices (e.g., yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals, interest rates, credit
spreads, implied volatilities, etc.) that are observable for the asset or liability;

Assumptions made in estimating the fair value of financial instruments
A number of financial instruments are not traded on active markets and thus fair values are based on estimations made using
net present value calculations of other valuation techniques which are significantly influenced by assumptions made regarding
estimated future cash flows and discount rates. In many cases it would not be possible to immediately realise the fair value
due to the size of the portfolio.
Methodologies, valuation techniques used and assumptions made in determining the fair values of financial instruments are as
follows:
Cash, cash balances at central banks and other demand deposits (level 1)
Due to their short-term nature, the carrying amounts of Cash, cash balances at central banks and other demand deposits are
a reasonable approximation of their fair value.
Loans and advances to customers (level 3)
For determining the fair value of these assets, future expected cash flows are discounted to their present value using current
market interest rates.
Fair values of loans and advances in stage 1 and stage 2 credit risk categories are calculated centrally by the parent company
using discounted cash flow method and, if relevant, taking behavioural option models and financial option pricing models into
account.
The Bank uses discounted cash flow method also for calculating fair values of stage 3 (credit-impaired) loans and advances.
For these transactions fair value is calculated as the present value of the expected recoveries (distressed cash flows)
estimated by the expected loss/provisions modelling system, discounted with risk free rates adjusted with liquidity and credit
risk premium.
These items are included in lines ’Loans and advances’ in the tables presenting fair value hierarchy.

Investments in securities (level 1, level 2 and level 3)
Quoted market prices are used for exchange-traded securities and listed debt instruments. The fair values of Hungarian
government bonds and corporate bonds classified as held for trading, designated at fair value through profit and loss and
measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are measured based on market prices available in the Bloomberg
Front-End System. The fair value of the securities is the market price quoted on the stock exchange (if such price exists). If no
quoted price exists, price available from OTC markets is used; otherwise, the fair value is the present value of the discounted
contractual cash flows at the valuation date.
These items are included in lines ‘Equity instruments’ and ‘Debt securities’ in the tables presenting fair value hierarchy.
Investments in unlisted securities (level 2 and level 3)
These instruments are not quoted on markets. Besides market information, the Bank uses other assumptions to value those
instruments.
For instruments valued at level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, fair values are calculated using dividend discount models.
These items are included in lines ‘Equity instruments’ in the tables presenting fair value hierarchy.
Derivative instruments (level 1 and level 2)
Fair value of exchange-traded derivatives is the quoted price.
Fair value of interest rate swaps and forward rate agreements is determined by discounting the forecasted future cash flows.
In doing so, the Bank applies the market rates applicable for the remaining maturity of the financial instruments.
The Bank determines fair values of cross currency swaps using discounted cash flow method (calculated by front-office
system). Basis swap spreads representative to the markets of those instruments and also including country risk premiums are
incorporated into yield curves used for the purpose of the valuation.
The fair values of forward exchange transactions are computed on the basis of current forward rates. Fair values of plain
vanilla and exotic currency options are calculated with modified Black-Scholes model. In case of exotic options, the fair value of
which cannot be estimated with a closed formula, fair values are calculated using iteration techniques.
For hedging the exposures to changes in fair value of some loans, deposits or plain vanilla bonds (both purchased and issued),
the Bank has entered into interest rate swap transactions. The fair value of these hedged loans, deposits and bonds is the
discounted present value of the future cash flows at balance sheet date. These loans, deposits and bonds are measured at
amortised cost or at fair value in the statement of financial position.
The aim of calculating CVA/DVA (Credit Value Adjustment/Debit Value Adjustment) according to IFRS 13 is to quantify the risk of
possible losses arising from counterparty defaults in case of the Bank’s derivative exposures. The varying parameter in the
model is the possible future change in the counterparty’s probability of default and not the changes in market variables. The
calculation process is as follows: expected future exposures are estimated on mark-to-market basis for specific future dates,
these are multiplied with default probabilities and then aggregated, and finally the result is adjusted with a recovery rate.
Bank deposits, deposits from customers (level 3)
Fair value of deposits from banks and deposits from customers are determined using discounted cash flows, applying current
rates offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The fair value of a deposit repayable on demand is assumed to be
the amount payable on demand at the balance sheet date.
According to IFRS 13 standard the Bank takes its own credit risk into account as follows: the Bank discounts future cash flows
of the deposits by using discount factors that are shifted by the liquidity premium applicable for the dates of cash flows
determined for each currency. The level of liquidity premiums is based on market information, for instance: BUBOR/LIBOR
reference rates, interest rates of Interest Rate Swaps and Forward Rate Agreements, ASW spreads (Asset Swap Spreads).
These items are included in lines ‘Deposits’ in the tables presenting fair value hierarchy.
Debt securities issued, subordinated liabilities (level 2 and level 3)
Fair value of debt securities issued is determined by the Bank using quoted market prices at the balance sheet date if
available, or by reference to quoted market prices for similar instruments. Fair value of subordinated liabilities is calculated by
discounting the future cash flows.
· Raiffeisen Bank Zrt. | Financial Year 2024
Separate financial statements
106
Fair values of fixed rate debt securities issued and designated in hedge relationships are calculated as the present value of
future cash flows.
According to IFRS 13 standard, own credit risk is quantified as follows: depending on the currency, the cash flows of the bond
are discounted using a HUF, EUR or USD zero-coupon IRS curve shifted by the amount of the liquidity premium.
Non-structured debt instruments issued are measured at amortised cost and thus they are not revalued except for cases
when they are designated as hedged items in fair value hedges. In these cases, only interest rate risk and not the credit risk is
hedged.

The above transactions were conducted in the ordinary course of business and on substantially the same terms and
conditions, including interest rates and collaterals, as for third parties.
Main changes in the column ‘Entities having joint or significant influence over the Bank or its parent’:
· The change in the ‘Loans and advances’ line was caused by an increase of HUF 20,890 million in other receivables
(current account credit, financial interbank deposit), an increase in the stock of active repo (HUF 518 million), and a
decrease of HUF 495 million recorded as trade receivables in 2023, as well as a decrease in the dividend advance
(HUF 32,293 million).
· A change in the composition of the ‘Deposits’ line can be observed: in addition to a decrease of HUF 8,551 million in
demand deposits, there was an increase in the subordinated loan capital (HUF 4,210 million), the loro account (HUF
2,455 million) and the funds acquired from repo (HUF 2,141 million).
· Under the heading ‘Nominal value of loan commitments, financial guarantees and other contingencies given, the
stock of guarantees issued with other collateral increased by HUF 534 million to 2024.
· In 2024, the ‘Nominal value of lending commitments, financial guarantees and other commitments received’
increased by HUF 503 million against the parent company.
· The value of deposits with subsidiaries increased by HUF 1,016 million. This increase was mainly due to the change in
the deposit of Raiffeisen Befektetési Alapkezelő Zrt.
· Nominal value of loan commitments, financial guarantees and other contingencies received decreased (HUF -2,174
million) from 2023 to 2024, mainly due to the combined effect of guarantees issued to Raiffeisen Autó Lizing Kft. and
Raiffeisen Ingatlan Üzemeltető és Szolgáltató Kft. and the change in the amount of unused credit lines (HUF -2,255
million) .

(47) Reports by segments
The following segment information is presented in accordance with IFRS 8 Operating segments, which requires disclosures of
financial information about an entity's operating segments. It follows the 'management approach', which requires operating
segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports on the components of the entity that are regularly reviewed by the
chief operating decision maker to allocate resources among the segments and assess the performance of each segment. The
Bank's exposure to risk and the level of return achieved depends primarily on the diversity of products and services offered, and
therefore segment information is presented in respect of the Bank's business segments. The business segments defined by the
