Annual inflation remains low Ruble weakening in April will quicken inflation movement to 4% 22 22 Decision (as of April 27, 2018) Uncertainty is in place over how inflation expectations will respond to the April developments in financial markets Monetary Conditions Neutral interest rate has shifted closer to the upper bound within the range of 6-7% Economic activity Business activity keeps on expanding and is hardly posing any disinflationary pressure on consumer price dynamics Medium-term outlook on economic growth remains unchanged The Bank of Russia keeps the key rate at 7.25% p.a. Signal Pro-inflationary (^) and disinflationary (↓) risks Fluctuations of food and oil prices ↑↓ Inflation expectations Possible changes in consumer behavior ←← Wage dynamics ↑ Volatility in the financial markets and heightened geopolitical tensions ↑ Uncertainty surrounding the parameters of the fiscal decisions The Bank of Russia still assumes that the monetary policy will become neutral in 2018. The Bank of Russia will base its decision-making upon assessments of inflation risks, inflation dynamics and economic developments as compared against the forecast.#23Bank of Russia RUSSIAN MACRO UPDATE The Central Bank of the Russian Federation 23 FINANCIAL STABILITY Macroprudential policy aimed at Identifying and preventing potential systemic risks Credit activity As the pace of recovery remains inconsistent across lending segments in Russia, credit-to-GDP gap (a difference between the actual credit-to-GDP ratio adjusted to currency revaluation, and the long-run trend) is still estimated as negative. This shows that lending remains below the long-term trend. Retail lending risks Non-collateralised consumer loans grow at a high pace, and surveys among Russian banks show that they plan a higher debt growth rate for 2018. However, as the inflation rate is decreasing, the Bank of Russia key rate and the market interest rates are cut as well. Provided that the credit institutions' funds collected are cheaper, the same effective interest rate will mean a higher credit risk for the borrower. In other words, if the credit risk ratio scale was not adjusted to the new context, the regulations would have automatically become laxer. Therefore, on 23 March 2018 the Bank of Russia Board of Directors agreed upon a draft ordinance providing for an increase in risk weight for consumer credits bearing an FCC of 15 - 25% to be issued after 1 May 2018. Mortgage loans grow at a steady rate, however, borrowers' debt burden remaining at the same level show that the current growth does not present any significant risk to the financial stability. The Bank of Russia aims to prevent the build-up of risks related to loans with a high loan-to-value ratio and secure sustainable development of the mortgage lending segment. Capital adequacy The capital adequacy ratio for the banking sector overall decreased over 12 months from 13.1% to 12.4% as of 1 February 2018. Decision The Bank of Russia keeps the countercyclical capital buffer (CCYB) rate for Russian credit institutions at 0% of risk-weighted assets as of March 29, 2018. Rising risk weights for specific credit requirements results in banks increasing their capital reserves to cover potential losses. Therefore considering the uneven recovery of lending, there is no need for a positive countercyclical buffer for credit institutions yet.#24Bank of Russia The Central Bank of the Russian Federation FINANCIAL SECTOR OVERVIEW#25Bank of Russia FINANCIAL SECTOR OVERVIEW The Central Bank of the Russian Federation BANKING SECTOR: CURRENT AGENDA Shaping a favourable operating environment and supporting market competition Proportional banking regulation: differentiating regulatory burden for banks based on their size and simplifying requirements for smaller banks focused on retail and SME lending Consulting supervision: aiming to remedy problematic situations in banks at an early stage New resolution mechanism: reducing financial costs and execution period of the resolution procedure Development of macroprudential regulation: streamlining the regulation, introducing countercyclical approach Imminent introduction of PTI ratio in order to affect the consumer lending market more efficiently New regulations to the credit history bureau: entrusting several strategic credit bureaus with the function of aggregating information on debt payments Development of banking supervision: introduction of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) standard on capital requirements for banks' equity investment in funds (since December 16, 2017) Basel III in force: Leverage ratio (except for banks with basic license), NSFR – for D-SIBS - 25#26Bank of Russia FINANCIAL SECTOR OVERVIEW The Central Bank of the Russian Federation BANKING SECTOR: KEY FIGURES (1) Active supervision and tighter regulation allowed to strengthen the health of the banking sector Figure 10: In 2013-2017 more than 300 licenses were revoked causing almost no impact on the banking sector's total assets Number of credit institutions, Ihs -Banking sector assets, RUB tn, rhs 26 Figure 11: Mortgage lending remains key growth driver amid falling rates Mortgage lending to GDP ratio, %, lhs Average weighted interest rate, %, rhs 96 5.9% 5.6% 14.0% 85.2 80 5.3% 13.0% 64 4.6% 12.0% 561 11.9% 48 4.0% 11.0% 32 3.3% 10.6% 10.0% 16 2.7% 2.2% 9.0% 2.0% 8.0% 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 1200 978 1000 800 600 41.6 400 200 0 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 Figure 12: In April 2018 corporate deposits grew by 3.7% YoY to 25.2 RUB tn Figure 13: In April 2018 Retail deposits demonstrated growth by 10%, reaching 26.7 RUB tn Corporate deposits, RUB tn, Ihs Retail deposits, RUB tn, Ihs YoY (ccy adj., by credit institutions operating as of the reporting date) rhs YoY (ccy adj., by credit institutions operating as of the reporting date) rhs 30.0 28.0 27.1 20% 27.0 26.7 30% 15% 25.5 25% 25.2 26.0 10% 24.0 23.2 19.2% 20% 24.0 5% 22.5 15% 22.0 0% 21.0 10% 3.8% 3.7% 20.0 -5% 19.5 10% 5% 18.0 -10% 18.0 0% 12.15 03.16 06.16 09.16 12.16 03.17 06.17 09.17 12.17 03.18 12.15 03.16 06.16 09.16 12.16 03.17 06.17 09.17 12.17 03.18 Source: Bank of Russia#27The Central Bank of the Russian Federation Bank of Russia FINANCIAL SECTOR OVERVIEW BANKING SECTOR: KEY FIGURES (2) Active supervision and tighter regulation allowed to strengthen the health of the banking sector Figure 14: Corporate lending has stabilized and shows early signs Figure 15: Retail loans remain the key driver of credit growth of recovery Corporate loans, RUB tn, Ihs Retail loans, RUB tn, lhs YoY (ccy adj., by credit institutions operating as of the reporting date) rhs YoY (ccy adj., by credit institutions operating as of the reporting date) rhs 35.5 30% 13.0 16.9% 12.820% 34.0 33.3 20% 12.5 15% 32.5 5.4% 10% 12.0 10% 31.0 0% 11.5 5% 4.1% -5.3% 29.5 -10% 11.0 0% 31.4 10.7 28.0 -20% 10.5 -5% 26.5 -30% 10.0 -10% 12.15 03.16 06.16 09.16 12.16 03.17 06.17 09.17 12.17 03.18 12.15 03.16 06.16 09.16 12.16 03.17 06.17 09.17 12.17 03.18 14.0% 94.5% 12.0% 10.0% 7.2% 8.0% 6.0% 4.0% 2.0% Figure 16: Share of bad corporate loans* reached 12.2% (01.04.18) while loan loss reserves to bad loans ratio amounted to 84.6% Share of bad loans, %, lhs Figure 17: Retail loans portfolio demonstrates improved quality: the share of bad loans* fell to 9.5% (01.04.18) Share of bad loans, %, lhs 12.14 03.15 06.15 09.15 12.15 03.16 Loan loss reserves to bad loans ratio, %, rhs 95.0% 14.0% 12.2% 92.5% 13.0% 90.0% 12.0% 87.5% 11.0% 84.6% 9.9% 85.0% 10.0% 97.1% 82.5% 9.0% HT 80.0% 8.0% 06.16 09.16 12.16 Loan loss reserves to bad loans ratio, %, rhs 109.0% 106.1% 106.5% 104.0% 101.5% * Loans classified into quality category of IV and V according to the requirements of Regulation No.590-P2.
