GROuP STRuCTuRE

Veneto Banca, through a merger by incorporation of cofito (majority shareholder of Banca intermobiliare) concluded on 18 february 2011 and registered on the Treviso and Turin company registers on 25 february 2011, acquired legal control of the issuer, Banca intermobiliare. following the aforementioned acquisition by Veneto Banca, the legal requirements for a compulsory takeover bid were met, pursuant to articles 102 and 106, paragraph 1 of the italian consolidated law on finance (Tuf), relating to residual outstanding Bim shares. The Bidder shall give each offer participant a cash price amounting to 4.25 euros for each share. as it is a compulsory takeover bid, the price has been calculated in accordance with art. 106, paragraph 2 of the consolidated law on finance (Tuf) and represents the highest price the Bidder paid to acquire the issuer's shares in the twelve months preceding this notice.Veneto Banca intends to keep Bim shares listed on the italian Telematic stock exchange, therefore the company will reinstate the outstanding shares if, as a result of the above offer, it should exceed an equity interest of 90% in Bim share capital.

* * *

it should be noted that on 5 april 2010, cofito’s shareholders, namely the scanferlin, d'aguì and Giovannove families, had agreed with Veneto Banca - which already held 40% of cofito’s share capital - on the acquisition of Bim by Veneto Banca and Bim’s subsequent merger into the Veneto Banca Group, through merger by incorporation of cofito into Veneto Banca.

following the stipulation of the aforementioned agreement, the Bim shareholders’ meeting held on 23 april 2010 renewed the Board of directors - as the term of office had expired - for the years 2010-2012, approving a list of candidates proposed by the shareholder cofito and agreeing on a total of eleven board members, the majority of whom were appointed by the Veneto Banca Group.

FINANCIAL YEAR 2010

The trend of financial markets was positive throughout the year, reflecting a generally encouraging macroeconomic and corporate picture, albeit characterized by geographically different dynamics and results: the global economic recovery has confirmed a clear gap between the growth profiles of industrialised countries and those of emerging countries.The pace of recovery of industrialised countries was slower and hindered by long-term structural factors which were aggravated during the recent financial crisis by the heavy and widespread reliance on public debt. however, the growth profile of emerging countries was much stronger, this year driven mainly by china and india with the local monetary authorities which, in light of this very positive movement, are working to prevent their respective economies from overheating and increasing in inflation.from an economic point of view, 2010 closed with an extremely positive global growth, estimated by the imf to be at 5%. developed economies recorded an average growth of 3%, with the best results recorded in Japan (+4.3%) and Germany (+3.6%) and with spain recording the only negative result (-0.2%). however, the average growth of emerging countries has been much stronger and has been estimated at 7.1%, due to the decisive contribution of china and india, growing by 10.3% and 9.7%, respectively. The different growth dynamic between emerging and industrialised countries, as well as the presence of structural deflationary factors in the latter, such as high unemployment rates and the poor use of production plants (in other words, a negative output gap), as well as the implementation of tax reforms to improve public finances, should continue to create differentiated inflation profiles between the two areas. moreover, in emerging countries the increase in some raw materials, mainly energy and food, caused a sharp rise in consumer prices. for 2010, imf’s latest estimates forecast a 1.5% inflation rate in industrialized countries, while the percentage for the emerging countries is estimated at 6.3%. The different growth and inflation dynamics have caused the definition of different monetary policies between the central Banks. in most industrialized countries, with the exception of some countries such as australia and canada, the official rates remain stable at the minimum levels reached during the 2008 financial crisis (the so called Zirp policy). in the light of the difficult recovery in some macroeconomic areas, such as the employment rate, the desire to keep rates at these levels for a longer period was reaffirmed several times during the year, in particular by the fed. however, in emerging countries, the presence of strong and increasing inflation led to the adoption of restrictive monetary policies with an overall increase in official interest rates. in regard to unconventional monetary policies (the so-called “quantitative easing” approach), the major central banks in industrialized countries, albeit for different purposes, decided to postpone their exit strategy, i.e. withdrawing extraordinary measures for monetary stimulation introduced during the 2008 financial and economic crisis which at first was forecast for 2010. in regard to the fed, the decision was mainly motivated by a desire to support economic growth, which was still considered to be too weak and uncertain. To this aim, extraordinary monetary policy measures were reintroduced for a total amount of 600 billion dollars to be carried out until June 2011, reinvesting principal at maturity of the mBs bonds acquired during the 2008 crisis in long term government bonds, in order to inject more cash flow into the economic system. in the case of BoJ (the Japanese central Bank) the decision to reintroduce quantitative measures was made with the dual aim of supporting a worsening economy in the second half of the year and trying to weaken the yen with the introduction, among other quantitative measures, of a temporary fund for about 60 billion dollars to purchase long term government bonds, corporate bonds, commercial papers and other financial instruments. finally, in the case of the ecB, the extraordinary monetary policy measures were introduced and subsequently extended in order to tackle the sovereign debt crisis in the peripheral eurozone countries, in Greece and ireland initially. for this reason, in the first half of the year, a purchase programme was introduced to the secondary market of government and corporate bonds to have them acquired by the national central banks on behalf of the ecB. subsequently, the european central Bank advised on the continuation of the extraordinary measures introduced during the 2008 crisis until the spring of 2011, in light of continuing tensions relating to government bonds of the peripheral eurozone countries. in regard to the currency market, 2010 was characterized by the euro crisis, triggered at first by the Greek crisis and

then by the irish crisis. The significant structural differences between the different economies within the single currency, aggravated by the fall-out of the 2008 financial crisis, the lack of a homogeneous fiscal policy within this area and the perception of poor political cohesion with the resulting delay in adopting appropriate measures to tackle the crisis, caused a significant decrease of the european currency, not only in relation to more classic safe haven currencies such as the swiss franc, which increased in value by 16%, and the yen, which increased by 18%, but also, in an initial phase, towards the dollar, which increased by 7%. only with the adoption of an extraordinary intervention plan in may amounting to 750 billion euros, launched by the european union with the participation of the imf, and the introduction of the aforementioned unconventional monetary policies by the ecB, it was possible to slow down the devaluation of the euro, which was weakened even further by the eruption of the irish crisis in autumn. in this case also, only the decision by the irish government to adopt an extraordinary bailout plan totalling 95 billion euros, similar to the previous bailout for Greece, allowed the single currency to regain lost ground in relation to the us dollar. in regard to raw material, market prices rose in general, due to both an improvement in the economic crisis, driven mainly by emerging countries where the demand of raw material is higher, and the maintaining of expansive monetary policies which favour financial investments in tangible assets. The crB index rose by 15% during the year, with peaks in the precious metal and agricultural raw material segments. The price of oil increased by 13% while the price of gold rose by 28%, reflecting mainly the uncertainty surrounding the development of the euro crisis and the wider diversification of currency reserves by central banks, mainly in emerging countries.from a corporate point of view, the trend of corporate earnings both in industrialized and emerging countries confirmed an extremely positive outlook, highlighting the great flexibility and efficiency which have characterized the behaviour of large international companies in these last few years of sudden and significant changes in the macroeconomic scenarios. at an aggregate level, the analysts’ estimates for 2010 forecast an increase in profits of 31.6% for the american s&p index; in europe, similar estimates for the dJ stoxx 600 index forecast a rise in profits of 64.2%, driven mainly by the results of German companies which are strongly exposed to emerging countries. in this context, the main share price indices realized good increases during the year, even though with not very homogeneous results, also within the same geographical areas. so, while the msci World index closed 2010 with a positive performance of 7.7% in local currency (+17.4% in euros) and the american s&p 500 index rose by 11.7%, eurostoxx 50 and the Japanese Topix decreased by -5.4% and -0.9%, respectively. The domestic stock exchange was also particularly badly hit with the fTse italia all share decreasing by -11.5%. however, the results of the stock exchanges of emerging countries were encouraging with the msci emerging markets index in local currency rising by 12% and significant increases recorded in some markets such as Thailand (seT index +40.6%) and russia (rTs index +24%). at a global level, the best performances were registered in the discretionary consumer sector (+19.6%) and in the industrial sector (+17.7%), while negative results were recorded in the public utility sector (-4.2%) and the health industry (-1.4%). in 2010, the very high performance that characterized the small and medium cap corporate segment compared to larger companies should also be taken into account; the american russell 2000 index, for example, saw a rise of 24.7%, much higher than the s&p 500 result.in regard to the government bond market, the crisis that hit the peripheral eurozone countries with high/growing budget deficit or a high stock of debt compared to Gdp (mainly Greece, portugal, ireland, spain and italy) gave rise to extremely varied results, even within a fairly stable framework of official rates and a strongly decreasing inflation rate that at times even triggered fears of a deflation spiral. The positive trend regarded mainly the issuers considered to be the most secure: the index of american government bonds with maturity between 5 and 10 years rose by 7.8% with the decade yield going from 3.8% in 2009 to 3.4% at the end of 2010. in europe, the ml emu index for maturity between 5 and 10 years increased only by 0.5% due to the contrasting influence of the extremely positive trend of the German Bund and the extremely negative trend of peripheral eurozone countries whose yield spreads compared to Bund reached the highest levels since the introduction of the euro. The yield of the German ten-year Bund decreased to 2.9% at the end of the year, compared with 3.4% at the end of 2009. The improved economic perspectives and general financial conditions once again favoured price trends in the riskiest segments of the bond market, such as corporate issues, both investment Grade and high yielder, convertible

bonds and sovereign issues of the emerging countries, whose yield spreads compared to government bonds decreased again, albeit less than the exceptional shrinking in 2009. The emu corporate index increased by 5% during the year while the riskiest segment of corporate equities registered a performance of 14.2%. convertible bonds registered a rise of 9.4% while government bonds of emerging countries rose by 12%.

2011in regard to economic growth, forecasts show a good growth profile for the Gross domestic product in 2011, with possible positive surprises resulting from improved consumption in the us. in europe, the different growth dynamics between core area countries, led by Germany, characterized by higher growth rates, and peripheral countries with weak if not negative growth rates should continue. in the emerging countries, even with the continuation of restrictive fiscal and monetary policies to slow down inflation, growth should not be significantly slowed down. at an aggregate level, the latest estimates for 2011 (imf source) forecast a global growth rate of 4.4%, slowly decreasing compared to +5% forecasted for 2010 with a moderated growth in industrialized countries, forecasted at 2.5% and a higher growth in emerging countries of 6.5%. as a consequence, the effect on corporate profits should be positive as confirmed by top-down and bottom-up estimates that forecast an average growth of between 8% and 20%. at present, the growth in profits expected for 2011 is 15.2% for the american s&p500 index and 18.1% for the european dJ sToXX 600. as for interest rates, there should be no significant change in the level of official rates in industrialized countries in 2011, remaining at the current minimum levels. inflation should remain low thanks to a continuing negative output gap and a high unemployment rate. however, in emerging countries an increase in the price of oil and especially an increase in food components shall continue to raise inflation, which could also influence core data. currently, an increase in consumer prices of 1.6% for industrialized countries and 6% for emerging countries (imf source) is expected. as for market rates, however, the upward trend of the last part of 2010 should continue, due to both a standardization in yields following the levels reached during the worst of the 2008 financial crisis and the consequences of the crisis in the peripheral euro zone countries. similarly, in emerging countries, the upward pressure should come from both the aforementioned standardization effect and specific action taken by monetary authorities to contain price pressures. in regard to absolute valuations of the main equity markets, there are no significant barriers to further index recovery, even if some fears started to emerge in relation to corporate profitability that is already extremely high compared to historical standards and therefore difficult to improve on. in relative terms, comparing share valuations based on expected profits with corporate bond yields, the undervaluation of equity markets is still obvious compared to bond markets. on the basis of the main valuation indicators, the equity markets of emerging countries no longer deal at discount yield compared to the average equity markets of developed countries; therefore, combined with widespread complacency in relation to the former, their relative strength could trigger a temporary deterioration.

the Bim group: reference marketsThe main markets of the Bim Group are represented by the italian private banking market - both in the banking segment represented by its subsidiary (Banca intermobiliare) and in the external banking/promoter segment (Banca ipibi) - and the italian managed saving products and services market where symphonia sgr operates. The Group also has a strong presence in other specific market segments (negotiation, private banking in switzerland) that can be associated with fundamental markets.analysis by the italian association of private Banking (at the date of publication of this document, data for the first 9 months of the year were available) show some main findings for the market segment served by the so called traditional operators, with the banking subsidiary: - a slight increase in market assets (1.8%), where Bim continues to maintain a generally stable market share of

3.5%. market growth was mainly due to net collection flows, being insignificant the effect of market prices; - a significant restructuring of clients’ portfolios, that progressively reduced the investment in liquid products:

this phenomenon occurred at an italian banking system level, at a traditional operator level and also in the Bim

Group; - the slight recovery of asset profitability; - the slow introduction of the financial advisory service for investments. on the market, the only extraordinary operation concluded within the year was the acquisition of meliorbanca private s.p.a. by santander private s.p.a., an italian bank belonging to the spanish santander group.in relation to the private banking market, served by external financial promoters, assoreti’s statistics indicated extremely polarized phenomena. The market collected a total amount of 12 billion, keeping higher growth rates than traditional banking operators. investment choices during the year preferred managed savings products into which a total of 14.2 billion euros was invested. The total assets of products distributed by companies within the sector increased from 230 billion in 2009 to 236 billion at the end of 2010. Within the market there are entities that are growing with very significant dynamics, but there are also operators with prolonged restructuring, crisis and repositioning issues. in this segment, Banca ipibi, with a net yield of over 20% of the total assets and an average yield per promoter of more than10 million euros, made a jump in the performance ratings, gradually reaching a position in the most prestigious segment of the market. finally, in relation to asset management companies, assogestioni indicates an extremely polarized asset management market with the first 5 italian groups managing over 50% of the total equity managed by the system. The market grew in size, increasing from 950 billion in 2009 to 1,007 billion euros at the end of 2010; at the same time the number of system managers decreased from 344 to 335 because of some extraordinary transactions on the market. assets managed by italian groups grew by around 20 billion compared with the total managed volume of 792 billion. foreign groups recorded better performances, favoured, among other factors, by the asymmetries on the features of the products, that registered a growth in managed volume equal to 37 billion, increasing from 177 billion the previous year to 214 for the current period. concerning products, monetaries decreased sharply (-27%) mainly in favour of equity sub-funds (+16%) and bonds (+11%).

FINANCIAL YEAR 2010

summary of results and management performance

2010 was characterised by the merger of Banca intermobiliare into the Veneto Banca Group. This transaction was announced last 6 april 2010 following an agreement reached by parent company cofiTo s.p.a.’s shareholders: the scanferlin, d’aguì and Giovannone families signed an agreement for the merger through acquisition of cofito with Veneto Banca and thus the acquisition by the latter of control of Bim and its banking group.after signing the above mentioned agreement, Bim renewed its Board of directors, (whose office expired with the approval of the 2009 financial statements), currently consisting of eleven members, the majority of whom were nominated by Veneto Banca Group.This transaction was authorized by the relevant authorities in december last year.The entry of Banca intermobiliare in a large and nationally important banking group represents a significant change and will allow the Bim Group to receive more structured support to respond to the new challenges of the competitive environment.The incorporation of cofito into Veneto Banca came into effect in february 2011 and will be followed by a compulsory takeover bid launched by Veneto Banca on all residual outstanding Bim shares.moreover, as already publicly announced to the market, Veneto Banca intends to keep Bim shares listed on the italian Telematic stock exchange, therefore the company will reinstate the outstanding shares if, as a result of the above offer, it should exceed an equity interest of 90% in Bim share capital.

The financial year 2010 of Banca intermobiliare Group closed with a consolidated net profit of € 10.253m, an increase of 19.6% over the previous financial year.

The Group’s total client assets remained at the same levels as the previous financial year: € 13.9b: the positive growth in private client assets of Banca intermobiliare, Banca ipibi and symphonia sgr was partially neutralized by the value decrease attributable to some institutional clients relationships.

during the financial year, the conditions of financial markets favoured a gradual increase in clients' risk appetite; many abandoned the extremely conservative positions they had taken during the two previous financial years because of the financial markets crisis. client assets breakdown significantly changed over the previous year: at 31 december 2010, deposits and other securities amounted to € 2.0b, decreasing by 14.2% y-o-y. This drop in deposits and other securities was entirely compensated by an increase in invested assets: in particular, the client assets under administration and custody fell to € 6b, a decrease of 6.5% y-o-y, while assets under management showed a dramatic increase (€ 5.8b, +14.9% y-o-y).

loans to clients at 31.12.2010 amounted to € 1,855m, recording a 7% increase. in particular, performing loans increased relevantly (€ 1,536m, +23.6%), due to new disbursements for approximately € 145m and to performing return of positions previously classified as impaired for approximately € 148m.

consolidated equity amounted to € 410m, a slight increase (+1.9%) over the previous financial year. The significant strengthening of the solidity indicators of the Group is to be highlighted: at 31.12.2010 the Tier 1 ratio was 11.5%, recovering 1.6 percentage points over 2009. The Total capital ratio was 17%, as opposed to 15.6% for 2009.unlike the events of the 2009 financial year, the income statement for the current financial year does not register

significant impacts from extraordinary or non-recurrent items.The net interest income closed with an increase of 4.2%, amounting to € 29.1m. net fees and commissions are mainly in line with the previous year (€ 70.7m vs. € 71.1m in 2009): during this financial year performance fee contribution significantly decreased on assets under management (around € 6m in 2010, around € 18m in 2009), while recurring fees generated by the same assets sharply increased. Worth noting is the result of advisory fees on investments, which exceeded € 2.3m (up from € 0.9m in 2009). The overall result of proprietary trading activity is positive for over € 25m. in 2009 the same result amounted to € 32m, thanks also to the disposal on the market of the investment in lse/Borsa italiana, held in portfolio since the '90s. The consolidated net operating income amounted to € 125.5m, as compared with € 132.4m in 2009 (-5.2/y-o-y).The Group operating costs increased by 4.1%, reaching € 99.6m. personnel costs remained generally in line with 2009 (+1.9% y-o-y), while administrative overheads increased by 7.4%, exceeding € 37m. operating profit (loss) amounted to € 25.9m, as opposed to € 36.7m in 2009. profit (loss) before tax was € 17.3m, against € 12.6m in 2009: during the financial year, net value adjustments on loans and net provisions for liabilities and charges returned to conform with historical data for the Group, with a total impact of 7.6m (they were approximately € 30m in 2009).after considering income tax expenses as well as losses attributable to minority interests, the Group net profit for the year is € 10.2m, +19.6% over the previous year.With reference to the trend of the main items describing the Group income and equity situation under the statutory profile, the financial statements of parent company Banca intermobiliare di investimenti e Gestioni closed with an operating profit of € 26.6m. (+12% y-o-y) and with a net profit for the year of € 13.9m.

With regards to subsidiaries, symphonia sgr client assets significantly increased (+10.3%, as a result of the change following the merger through acquisition of Bim alternative investments sGr s.p.a. in symphonia sGr s.p.a. effective January, 1st 2010) and the increase in development initiatives of Banca ipibi of financial advisory, whose client assets exceeded € 1,540m (+30.9% y-o-y) thanks also to the growth of the financial advisors network.

Tax audit on Banca intermobiliare on 31 march 2010 a tax audit began on the parent company, Banca intermobiliare, in relation to direct taxes, regional tax on production and VaT regarding previous financial years.at the approval date of these draft financial statements, the tax audit report had not yet been communicated. The main items identified by the company through the management of daily reports have been analysed by the management and the external consultants who do not foresee any implications for the company.

change of parent companyVeneto Banca s.c.p.a., following a merger by incorporation of cofito (majority shareholder of Banca intermobiliare) on 18 february 2011 and registered on the Treviso and Turin company registers on 25 february 2011, acquired legal control of the issuer, Banca intermobiliare. following the aforementioned acquisition by Veneto Banca s.c.p.a., the legal requirements for a compulsory takeover bid were met, pursuant to articles 102 and 106, paragraph 1 of the italian consolidated law on finance (Tuf), relating to residual outstanding Bim shares. The Bidder shall give each offer participant a cash price amounting to 4.25 euros for each share surrendered to participate in the offer. Veneto Banca intends to keep Bim shares listed on the electronic stock exchange, therefore the company will reinstate the outstanding shares if, as a result of the above offer, it should exceed an equity interest of 90% in Bim share capital.

The expected economic and financial results of the Group are clearly influenced by financial market trends: the first months of 2011 confirm the positive trend seen in the second half of the previous financial year, with particular reference to a regained client interest in riskier assets and trading and operating activities. market conditions are favourable and seem to lead to a moderate increase in operating volumes. during the period, the Group shall continue the development of its distribution network, both on the parent bank and on its subsidiary Banca ipibi; the Group will promote, as well as the launch of important innovation projects for the range of products (symphonia product range) and services (investment advisory).

Banca intermobiliare Group registered a sharp decrease in impaired activities equal to approximately € 148m, mainly related to the return of overdraft positions (€ 61.1m) and to the significant drop in watchlist loans positions (€ 80.8m) due to the end of temporary difficulty of some debtors. over 31.12.2009, non-performing net positions decreased by 5.7% mainly due to the collection of previous interests accrued on the main credit exposure to the coppola Group companies and to partecipazioni immobiliari. such exposure, assisted by investment and real estate guarantees, at 31 december 2010, amounted to approximately € 141m gross and around € 116m after valuation reserves. With reference to the watchlist loans net exposures and expired net exposures, during the first quarter the partial repayment of two relevant positions to clients operating in the real estate segment was carried out, as already mentioned in the financial statements at 31.12.2009 and in the subsequent interim financial statements of 2010. Both positions are presently classified as performing. in the first case, the watchlist loans position at 31.12.2009 for € 82m decreased after the client’s payment of € 23m, as partial repayment of capital and of some expired instalments. on this position, the residual exposure on the performing return date was € 59m.in relation to the second case, classified at 31.12.2009 among expired positions for € 59m, it is a position relating to companies that during the year were subject to corporate changes: repayments made during the year and a new majority shareholder allowed the positions to return to normal conditions. for further information related to “information on risks and related hedging policies” of cash and off-balance-sheet exposures of loans to clients, refer to part e of the Banca intermobilare Group financial statements at 31.12.2010.

The net financial position towards banks at 31.12.2010 was € 194m compared with debt position for € 51m at 31.12.2009. The significant increase in the net financial position is caused by the lower availability of deposits and other securities that occurred during the first quarter of this financial year. operations with credit institutions were determined by very short term requirements for provision/use, typically in current accounts and overnight and short deposits as well as by the requirement caused by financial instruments transactions. loans and other forward debts towards banks were mainly composed of a loan of € 245m taken out through syndicated lending in 2006 with 18 international banks that expired in february 2011 and was regularly repaid. The other payables are made up of € 30m of time deposits and for € 18m of other loans.other loans consist of current accounts and at sight forward deposits for € 67m opened within major credit institutions. Banca intermobiliare subscribes to the collateralised interbank market and can participate in ecB auctions.such exposures are subject to continuous monitoring by rate and cash risk management strategies, described in the market information section, “information on risks” of the consolidated directors’ report and in part e, “market risks” section of the notes to the consolidated accounts.

Other administrative overheads amounted to €/’000 37,742, increasing over the previous period. The increase of 7.4% is mainly due to a higher charge for insurance policies, costs to manage real estate and lease of machines and software. With reference to expenses for external advisory services, apart from a slight increase in legal costs, expenses for organisation and information advisory services sharply decreased.

Operating amortisation and depreciation, equal to €/’000 8,238 at 31.12.2010, decreased by 4% over the previous financial year. during the year no significant investments in tangible and intangible assets were registered and no impairment situations occurred.

The result before non-recurring components amounts to €/'000 18,283, strongly recovering compared to €/’000 6,926 recorded at 31.12.2009, due to fewer net value adjustments on loans and to fewer net provisions for liabilities and charges introduced in the period: the total amount of net value adjustments on loans and of net provisions for liabilities and charges amounts to €/’000 7,680, against €/’000 30,130 related to 2009 (-74.5% y-o-y). during the 2009 financial year, the economic and financial crisis made clients’ credit standing worse, with subsequent increases in value adjustments on loans and provisions for liabilities and charges.

net value adjustments on loans at 31.12.2010 amount to €/’000 4,443. in particular, total provisions for €/’000 15,186 were allocated on impaired situations in order to have position updates analytically valued both in terms of collection of guarantees and by quantifying the charge related to the resolution time for doubtful loans. Write-backs amounted to €/’000 10,792, crried out against to the repayment of some exposures, among which Gruppo coppola and partecipazioni immobiliari, due to the time-value effect.

net provisions for liabilities and charges amount to €/’000 3,237 against a balance of €/’000 11,909 related to 31.12.2009. provisions mainly relate to legal cases liabilities, clients' complaints and other liabilities. at the same time, write-backs were made because of the judicial and extra judicial resolution of some legal cases and complaints. net charges included in the financial statements are also influenced by the time-value effect.

Banca ipiBi s.p.a.in 2010 Banca ipiBi intensified the scheduled development plan which, between 2010 and 2013, forecasted a significant increase in assets and a gradual return to a positive economic result. The advisory-based business plan, which has become the Bank's core product, is meeting the interest of high-standing financial promoters looking for the possibility of creating a strong partnership with small entities, the full autonomy of private banker activity, high consideration of human capital and the use of a particularly simple structure which allows direct relationship and quick execution responses between central management and the network.Banca ipiBi, which celebrates its 10th anniversary in 2011, operates in 9 italian regions through 3 operating branches (milan, Turin and rome), 28 financial promoters offices and 7 private offices, with a total network of 167 private Banker advisors.all clients are advisory-managed with a multibrand offer consisting of a portfolio of products that is always being updated because of new commercial distribution agreements decided with the main national and international product companies. such offer is always widened by placing the highest quality products of the Banca intermobiliare Group (symphonia asset management, Bim ViTa insurance policies, synergia funds, symphonia’s sicaV multisicav).To support the Bank's important expansion, significant interventions have been carried out in order to support the central structure, replanning the Bank's organisational function chart. The main interventions concerned:• the creation of a decentralized Back office and an administration department at the new rome branch; • the implementation of a stronger auditing service and compliance service as well as a deep reorganisation

of the sales and marketing department, with a new Business coordinator, the creation of the deputy director's new role and the establishment of two areas (products and services and Bank synergies) in order to better control the network’s expansion;

• issue of share capital for € 7.5m (of which 4.95 as share premium) for all shareholders and deliberated during the recent extraordinary shareholders’ meeting of 11 february 2011.

The undergoing development process is confirmed by the significant increase in managed assets from € 1.18b to € 1.54b (+30.9%), almost totally due to net inflows, the benefit from the market effect being insignificant. Total client assets in 2010 were a considerable result for the Bank, ranking it first in the assoreti's national list as pro-capita net inflows with more than € 2.1m. in addition to asset growth, the number of client relationships grew from 7,980 in 2009 to 9,135 in 2010, increasing by almost 15% annually, after introducing 46 new professionals and after developing new clients through the existing network. a sharp increase in asset profitability of the Bank for 16 bps must also be highlighted, going from 1.40% in 2009 to 1.56% in 2010, equal to a growth of 11.4%.The profit and loss account result is negative in regard to its ordinary component, despite a sharp increase in fees and commissions income from € 11.8m to € 18.5m (+56.1%) and net fees and commissions growth from € 3.2m to € 4.9m (+53,6%). investments in development, relating in particular to bonus costs given to advisors for the introduction of new assets, significantly influenced fees and commissions expenses. The total amount of bonuses, together with the reward plan for the existing network for acquiring new assets, is about € 2.29m. an extraordinary component due to the write-down of a bank’s historical investment shall be added for around €/’000 885. here are the main highlights at 31.12.2010:• net inflows: € 323.3m (€ 196.3m y-o-y, +64.7%);net operating income: € 8.0m (€ 5.9m y-o-y, +35.7%); • loss for the period: € 2.3m (€ 2.7m y-o-y, -16.3%).

Bim fiduciaria s.p.a.The company provides static trust services, namely offering administration services, with or without heading, of assets on behalf of third parties, implementing shareholders agreements, granting option decisions to third parties, pledging on assets managed through trusts, reorganizing equity by setting up parent Bank companies, giving common representation to savings debt holders and shareholders, giving individual representation to shareholders and debt holders in executing their rights, issuing registration forms to participate to shareholders’ meetings and domiciling registered office of companies.The 2010 activity continued at high pace due to the inflows of the so-called “Tax amnesty”, a legislative provision which allowed the legalisation of assets illegally held abroad with the subsequent regularisation of the taxpayer’s fiscal position; it began at the end of 2009 and ended during 2010 when legalised transactions for assets held abroad by clients were managed and perfected. Throughout 2010, the company provided an intensive highly specialized advisory service to the clients in order to not only analyse and perfect repatriation transactions, but also to plan post-amnesty operations. Great commitment, confidentiality, devotion and high qualification of the staff who worked on this initiative allowed the Banca intermobiliare Group to achieve a significant contribution in terms of regulated volumes.There is a relationship of continuous cooperation with Veneto Banca Group's commercial network which has the possibility to attract inflows by offering the services in which Bim fiduciaria is specialized, always meeting the highest commitment and confidentiality standards. The financial year at 31 december 2010 was particularly positive for the Bank, both in terms of profits and in terms of managed assets:• assets managed through trusts amount to € 845m (€ 667m y-o-y)• net fees and commissions amount to € 0.5m (€ 0.3m y-o-y)• profit (loss) on ordinary activity/ net operating income 17.2% (28.5% y-o-y).

Bim insurance BroKers s.p.a.Bim insurance Brokers, an insurance brokerage company set up at the end of 2006 and operational since the beginning of 2007, immediately performed well, working on the Banca intermobiliare’ portfolio of policies and bringing great advantages to the whole Group, both for savings on insurance premiums and for wider hedges, in comparison with the past.a new company has therefore been created within the parent bank. such company, on one hand, has worked to optimize the bank's insurance coverage, and on the other it has provided a service to all Bank's staff without impacting on its costs.


FINANCIAL YEAR 2010

at the same time, the outside work on assets, partly on clients identified by the Bank’s structures, but mostly on new clients acquired outside the bank circuit thanks to collaborators working with our company, has greatly developed.in particular, it was very useful to have a direct “binder” for third party insurance in london, such as lloyd’s cover holder, which was sold directly to our clients, but also to other brokers, making our company a wholesale broker selling services.all insurance fields, with the exception of reinsurance, are now covered in the best way; due to new collaborators, professionals with high specialization in each field, so as to always guarantee an appropriate response to the client.finally, Bim insurance Brokers invested and is still investing on the structure, necessary to take up all future challenges, to meet future clients’ expectations and, obviously, to continue expanding.at 31.12.2010 the company increased its market position registering brokerage commissions equal to €/’000 1,086 growing of 43% compared to €/’000 762 of the previous financial year. Banca intermobiliare Group’s interest amounts to 51% of its share capital.

Bim vita s.p.a.Bim Vita s.p.a. is an insurance-bank company within the Group, established in 2001 following an agreement between Banca intermobiliare and Gruppo fondiaria-sai with the aim of providing a complete service to the clients, integrating the knowledge and values of two economic entities in the search for solutions in the pension and savings areas. as for equity results, the company confirmed the volumes of managed assets deriving from insurance policies.Below is a summary of the range of services provided by the company per insurance field:- savings: Bim guaranteed annuity, Bim Vita guaranteed assets, Bim Vita free finance and Bim Vita free

funds;- pension planning: Bim Vita open pension fund.

Bim immoBiliare s.r.l.The company was set up in 2001, with the aim of acquiring and managing the real estate of Banca intermobiliare Banking Group: currently, managed real estate consists of properties in the city centre of Turin, partly used as Banca intermobiliare management’s offices, and of branch offices in milan, Via meravigli, in rome, parioli area and in cuneo.

information on risKs and factors influencing profitaBility

as explicitly required by the financial stability forum in april 2008, and by the regulatory Body with the publication of the first update of the memorandum of Banca d'italia on 18 november 2009, below is a summary of the impacts of the main financial risks on equity and financial results of the Banca intermobiliare Group and in particular on "additional information" focusing on risk areas, products and other significant operating issues. for further information and details, see the disclosure of the memorandum 262 of Banca d’italia and in particular the notes to the consolidated financial statements part a (with reference to accounting policies used to prepare the financial statements) and part e (for qualitative and quantitative information on risks and related hedging policies).

FINANCIAL YEAR 2010

credit riskas for loans to clients, mainly aimed at supporting the investment activity and/or clients' asset management, Banca intermobiliare Group increased the volumes of performing loans, also due to the repayment of some credit exposures.in order to limit risk, corrective action has been intensified, such as: integrating guarantees with less-exposed-to-market volatility securities, increasing in guarantee spreads; rotating re-estimate of real estate assets obtained as guarantee; daily monitoring of most significant positions as well as overdue payments.as for credit risks related to the significant exposure towards clients operating in the real estate business, during the financial year the risk position was reduced through partial, albeit significant, repayments of some positions.

following the regulatory update in the memorandum 263 of Banca d’italia published in december 2010, Banca intermobiliare calculated the number and the amount of the so-called “significant exposures” considering as an exposure an amount equal to or higher than 10% of supervisory capital without applying weighting factors. The new calculation method registered a growth to 15 significant exposures (they were 5 at 31.12.2009) for a total amount of €1,010m. (€ 402m at 31.12.2009). among significant exposures:- no. 1 exposure for doubtful loans for € 116m (weighted € 116m)- no. 3 exposures for group companies for € 204m (weighted € 91m)- no. 2 exposures towards institutions (italian Government and cc&g) for € 153m (weighted € 0.08m)- no. 1 exposure towards a primary italian bank for € 67m (weighted € 25m)- no. 7 exposures towards high range private clients for € 507m (weighted € 283m)about the latter, such exposures are constantly monitored by Banca intermobiliare Group corporate bodies and fully assisted by real estate and transferable securities warranties.

for further information on policy and techniques of risk management see part e - section 1.1 credit risk of the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

market riskThe first part of the year was characterized by a lack of trust in the debt sustainability for some countries of the euro area, namely for Greece. This offset high volatility reflected not only on sovereign bonds, but also on the stock market (ftse mib lost around 20% between april and may). Banca intermobiliare Group was not exposed to the so-called piGs risk through proprietary investments in sovereign bonds, thus avoiding to take highly speculative positions.further consequence of doubtful loans of some european countries was the sharp drop of the euro against the dollar (the exchange rate reached the minimum level of 1.1923). The Group's main exposure in dollars was its own bond issue, which was promptly associated with a management hedging cross currency swap which cancelled the exchange rate effect of liability in dollars.in the first semester interest rates inverted, and after reaching minimum levels in march, they increased again, pushed by the first reabsorption of cash that the ecB itself had pumped into the system. Trading Book rate risk was greatly reduced between the first and the second quarter, while Banking Book bond rate risk remained the same, as greater fixed-rate exposures are covered by interest rate swaps.in the second semester, after the sharp decrease of the last months, equity markets generally recovered even if the risk hedging average cost towards piGs countries reached new peaks at the end of the year (495 bps). The Bank did not take any risk positions towards these countries, reducing also the exposure towards the italian Government in hfT portfolio, from total assets of € 38m, to one of € 2m.The euro rates continue increasing, 3-month euribor has registered an increase of 30% in the last 6 months. The Bim portfolio which is most exposed to rate risk is afs portfolio, regardless the increase of around € 50m, it did not register significant mark to market movements, thanks to the switch of many fixed rate positions to floating rate positions.


FINANCIAL YEAR 2010

as for forex, in the third and fourth quarter, the euro started to strengthen against other currencies. The only currency exposures of the Bank are some new issues in Turkish lira and in norwegian krone issued in the fourth quarter and appropriately management-hedged through cross currency swap contracts.

liquidity riskThe exit strategy was postponed in 2010 by both the ecB and by fed, guaranteeing a good liquidity level that has flown particularly into the equity market and in raw materials.during the year, Banca intermobiliare Group increased the total assets given to the collateralized interbank market, which is becoming more and more important in volumes and number of subscribing institutions. on overnight loans, stress phases were not registered; however, the security balance for overdraft was increased in order to guarantee a high level of liquidity in less favourable contexts.in the last quarter, an issuing plan commenced, mainly related to the eonia rate, in order to face the imminent extinction of the syndicated loan, promptly reimbursed.

credit structured products considered risky by the marketBelow is some additional information on investments that the market considers to be highly risky because of the financial crisis that originated from american subprime mortgage loans and on derivative trading with clients.in particular we refer to the indications of Bank of italy (communication of 18 June 2008) and of consob (letter of 23 July 2008) and we consider recommendations of the 2008 financial stability forum’s report which both regulatory Bodies recall. Below is information at 31 december 2010 on:i) credit structured products - no existing position.ii) operations through Special Purpose Entities (SPE) - no existing position.iii) operations on derivatives with clients and related counterparty risk - fair value calculation of oTc financial instruments, including those traded with clients, is carried out using valuation models and methods that are explained in the notes to the consolidated financial statements - part e. The activity of the Bim Group in oTc derivatives with clients requires the signature of a specific margin contract by the client who wishes to operate on derivatives and the risk exposure is monitored through the degree of risk, represented by the relationship between requested margins and assets available within the institution, which shall not exceed 50%. The main types of oTc derivative products traded with clients are represented by currency options, commodity options, interest rate swaps and currency forward contracts. considering only the exposures with clients at 31.12.2010, the Group presented, in relation to derivative brokerage activity, a positive fair value for € 25.3m (€ 30.7 y-o-y), fully guaranteed by margins paid by clients and daily monitored by risk management and by the parent Bank’s middle office.financial markets throughout 2010 were influenced by a strong speculative movement in the first part of the year towards government bonds issued by portugal, ireland, Greece, and spain and towards the end of the financial year to corporate bonds more involved in the recent middle eastern countries crisis. The Banca intermobiliare Group did not have proprietary investments in these segments and therefore was not exposed at 31.12.2010 to debt securities issued by the governments of above mentioned countries.

FINANCIAL YEAR 2010

A.1 - GENERAL

Section 1 - Declaration of compliance with International accounting standards

The consolidated financial statements of the Banca Intermobiliare Group were prepared by applying International Accounting Standards (IAS) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as approved by the European Commission on the basis of the procedures indicated in EC Regulation No. 1606 of 19 July 2002 and as dictated by Italian Legislative Decree 38/05. In addition, the consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with the first update of 18 November 2009 of Circular No. 262 of 22 December 2005 issued by Bank of Italy which specifies the reporting formats and related methods for completing them, as well as the content of the notes to the financial statements. In addition, reference was made to documents prepared by the Organismo Italiano di Contabilità (Italian Accounting Profession, O.I.C.) and by the Associazione Bancaria Italiana (ABI) in order to provide better guidance for the interpretation and application of the new accounting standards.The document was also prepared in accordance with Consob regulations.

Section 2 - General principles of preparation

The financial statements are made up of balance sheet, the income statement, the statement of comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity, the cash flow statement and the notes to the financial statements and are accompanied by the Director’s report and the declaration by the Chief Executive Officer and the Executive in charge of the preparation of corporate accounting documents made pursuant to Article 154-bis, paragraph 5 of Italian Legislative Decree 58/1998.The financial statements are prepared on the basis of company continuity, using euros as the currency of account in accordance with the provisions of Article 5 of Italian Legislative Decree No. 38 of 28 February 2005. Unless otherwise indicated, amounts are expressed in thousands of euros.No exceptions were made to the application of IAS and IFRS principles. In addition to the amounts related to the reporting period, the financial statements and the notes to the financial statements include corresponding figures as at 31 December 2009 for comparison purposes.The report on operations and the notes to the financial statements provide the information required by International Accounting standards, laws, Bank of Italy and Consob.

Section 3 - Consolidation area and methods

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the Parent Company Banca Intermobiliare and its direct and indirect subsidiaries and associates. Subsidiaries are considered to be those companies in which the Parent Company holds more than half of the voting rights (including “potential” voting rights), whether directly or indirectly, or in which it has the power to appoint the majority of the directors or to determine the financial and operating policies of the subsidiary, even if it has less than half of the voting rights.Associates, or companies subject to significant influence, are considered to be those companies in which the Parent Company holds at least 20% of voting rights (including “potential” voting rights), whether directly or indirectly, or in which, pursuant to shareholder agreements, it has the power to participate in determining the financial and management policies.There have been no changes in the consolidation area of the Banca Intermobiliare Group since the publication of the consolidated financial statements at 31 December 2009.It should be noted that on 1 January 2010, the 100% stake in Bim Alternative Investments SGR S.p.A. was merged into Symphonia SGR S.p.A.; in addition, at the end of 2010, the Parent Company Banca Intermobiliare reclassified its equity investment in Immobiliare D S.r.l. from “Non-current assets and disposal groups held for sale” to “Equity investments” since the prerequisites of IFRS 5 had not been met. This equity investment, which was purchased as part of a transaction, aimed to recover a certain exposure position and was treated for accounting purposes in accordance with IFRS 5 from 31 December 2009. For additional information, see Part B “Information on the consolidated balance sheet” under Section 15, “Non-current assets and disposal groups held for sale and related liabilities.”

Consolidation methodsThe financial statements used for consolidation are those specially prepared by individual companies that have been adjusted and reclassified in order to bring them in line with the accounting standards and presentation formats required for the consolidated financial statements of Banca Intermobiliare.The financial statements to be consolidated relate to the same date as the Parent Company.In addition to the Parent Company, all subsidiaries are fully consolidated based on the respective financial statements at 31 December 2010. Financial statement figures for the Swiss subsidiary, which prepares its accounting statements in local currency, are converted to euros using the following methods: for balance sheet figures, the exchange rate at the financial year end was used, while operating figures were converted using the average exchange rate for the period from 1 January 2010 to 31 December 2010. The difference between profit reflected on the balance sheet and on the income statement, due to the use of two different exchange rates, as well as the difference between the valuation of share capital at the historical rate as compared to the end of period exchange rate, were reclassified under equity reserves.The equity investment in the insurance company Bim Vita S.p.A., which is held on a 50/50 basis with Fondiaria-Sai S.p.A., was accounted using the equity method as required by IAS/IFRS principles.

Full consolidationThe full consolidation method consists of transferring the balance sheet and income statement items of subsidiaries “line-by-line”. Investments in subsidiaries included in consolidation have been offset against the corresponding portion of equity of those companies. Consolidation differenceIf positive, the differences resulting from this procedure are recorded - following any allocation to asset or liability components of the subsidiary - as goodwill under the item “Intangible assets” on the date of the first consolidation, and subsequently under “Other reserves.” Positive consolidation differences are subject to periodic impairment tests in order to determine whether the related book value is appropriate. If the recoverable value of goodwill is lower than book value, the difference is recognised in the income statement.

Elimination of overlapping itemsThe following were eliminated from the consolidated financial statements:• overlapping assets and liabilities• income and charges related to booked transactions and profits and losses resulting from trading operations.DividendsAny dividends of subsidiaries included in the full consolidation method or accounted for using the equity method and posted to the income statement of the investor company are eliminated with an offsetting credit under “retained earnings (accumulated losses)” in the consolidated financial statements.Deferred taxes on consolidation differencesIf certain conditions are met, adjustments made during consolidation result in the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities.

valuation using the equity methodThis method consists of allocating to subsidiaries the value of their shareholders’ equity equal to the share applicable to the Group, including the net profit for the period. In particular, this method involves the initial registration of the equity investment at cost and its subsequent adjustment on the basis of the company’s share of the subsidiary’s shareholders’ equity. The differences between the value of the equity investment and the subsidiary’s shareholders’ equity are included in the book value of the subsidiary. If the value of an equity investment has been reduced, the recoverable value of the investment is assessed, taking into account the present value of future cash flows that may generate from the investment, including its final disposal value. The pro-rata share of the subsidiary’s net profit for the period is recorded in a specific item in the consolidated income statement.

Section 4 - Events after the financial statement reporting date Change in parent companyThrough an agreement for the merger of Cofito (the controlling shareholder of Banca Intermobiliare) booked on 18 February 2011 and recorded on the Company Registers of Treviso and Turin on 25 February 2011, Veneto Banca S.c.p.a. acquired legal control of the Issuer Banca Intermobiliare. Pursuant to Articles 102 and 106, paragraph 1 of the Consolidated Law on Finance, following this acquisition, the legal prerequisites were met for Veneto Banca S.c.p.a. to launch a mandatory takeover bid for the remaining outstanding BIM shares. The Bidder will pay to each Offer participant a cash amount equal to EUR 4.25 for each share surrendered to participate in the Offer. Veneto Banca intends to maintain the BIM shares listed on the electronic stock exchange and thus it will reinstate outstanding shares if, as a result of the above offer, it should exceed an equity interest of 90% in BIM share capital.

Going concernWith reference to the assumption of the company being a going concern, in the report on operating performance and changes in the balance sheet and financial situation, directors did not indicate any situations that would cast a doubt on the ability of the company and its subsidiaries to continue normal operations. The balance sheet and the financial structure are suitable for ensuring operating continuity in the near future. Based on this reasonable expectation, the financial statements at 31 December 2010 were prepared with the expectation that the company is a going concern.

Section 5 - other aspects

Reclassification of equity investment in Immobiliare D S.r.l.Following the inability to meet the requirements dictated by IFRS 5, the comparative value in the financial statements at 31 December 2009 in the equity components of the subsidiary Immobiliare D S.r.l. was reclassified from the item “Non-current assets/liabilities and asset groups held for sale” to individual items on the financial statement.The reclassification of these financial statement items had no impact on the income statement or on shareholders’ equity.

Reclassification of Banca Ipibi tax creditsFollowing the EUR 567,000 reclassification carried out in its financial statements by the subsidiary Banca Ipibi of certain tax credits that were no longer related to income taxes, the comparative value at 31 December 2009 was reclassified from “Tax assets” to “Other assets.”

In the preparation of these financial statements, the Banca Intermobiliare Group restated the balance sheet values at 31 December 2009 for the following financial statement items:

A2 - INFoRmAtIoN oN tHE mAIN ItEmS

Below is a description of the accounting principles used to prepare the IAS/IFRS consolidated financial statements at 31 December 2010; these standards did not change from the previous year.The presentation of the accounting principles applied is based on the classification, recording, valuation and removal of the various asset and liability items. Where relevant, a description of the related operating impact is provided for each of the above stages.

Section 1 - Financial assets held for trading

Classification criteriaDebt and equity securities, fund units and the positive value of derivative contracts held for trading are included in this category.

Recognition criteria When first identified, these financial assets, net of any transaction costs, are recorded in the balance sheet at fair value, usually corresponding to the amount paid to acquire them. They are recorded on the financial statements starting from the settlement date.

Criteria for valuation and recording of operating componentsSubsequently, financial assets held for trading are valued at fair value with an offset for changes posted to the income statement. To determine the fair value of financial instruments listed on an active market, market prices are used. In the absence of an active market, there are internal valuation models that take into account all risk factors related to the financial instruments. In particular, valuations are based on whether or not there are contributing factors from trading platforms, on volumes traded, on spreads applied or on other factors. Alternatively, there are valuation methods that are provided by key information sources and internal valuation methods based on the valuation of listed instruments with similar characteristics, of discounted cash flows or of values taken from recent transactions. Financial instruments for which it is not possible to determine fair value in a reliable manner were maintained at cost. Derivative financial instruments are reported in financial statements under assets if fair value is positive or under liabilities, if fair value is negative.

Derecognition criteriaFinancial assets are derecognised from the balance sheet only if their transfer resulted in the substantial transfer of all of their associated risks and benefits.

Section 2 - Financial assets available for sale

Classification criteria These are financial assets that cannot be classified as loans, receivables or financial assets held for trading or held until maturity. In particular, the Banca Intermobiliare Group also includes in this item equities not qualified as controlled, linked or jointly controlled equity investments.

Recognition criteria When first identified, these financial assets are recorded at fair value, usually corresponding to the amount paid to acquire them, in addition to any transaction costs that are directly attributable to such assets.

Criteria for valuation and recording of operating componentsSubsequently, the financial instruments classified in this category must be valued at fair value, with a balancing entry in equity reserve, until the financial asset is disposed of or impairment is recognised. At the time of disposal or any impairment, the equity reserve is reversed back to the income statement. If the reasons for impairment no longer apply, it is necessary to record a write-back, the impact of which is recorded in the income statement in the case of debt securities, or directly in the equity reserve in the case of equity securities.The fair value of financial assets available for sale is determined on the basis of market prices for comparable transactions, and on valuation models based on multiples or discounted cash flow. Equity securities for which it is not possible to determine fair value in a reliable manner are maintained at cost.


Section 3 - Financial assets held to maturity

Classification criteria This category includes all investments held other than equity investments, with fixed payments, or payments that can be determined on a fixed maturity date, that are listed on an active market (level 1), and that the company intends and is in a position to hold them until maturity.

Recognition criteria Financial assets are recorded on their settlement date. On the date when first recorded, financial assets held to maturity are reported in the balance sheet at their fair value, which usually corresponds to the amount paid to acquire them.

valuation criteriaSubsequently, assets held to maturity are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest criterion.

Derecognition criteriaFinancial assets are derecognised from the balance sheet only at maturity, or on rare exceptions prior to their natural maturity, but in accordance with the provisions of IAS 39 in terms of exemption from the “tainting rule.”

Section 4 - Loans

Classification criteriaThis category includes direct loans to customers or banks that entail fixed or determined payments. These financial assets are not listed in an active market and from the outset are not classified under financial assets available for sale or under assets designated at fair value.This item includes repo transactions, securities lending and current accounts at credit institutions.

Recognition criteria Receivables and loans are initially recorded at fair value, which usually corresponds to the amount disbursed including any directly attributable costs and income, net of disbursements.

valuation criteriaAfter initial recognition, loans are assessed at their amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. For loans made by the Banca Intermobiliare Group, the absence of costs that are directly allocable to financial statement entries makes the impact of recording such entries using the amortised cost method negligible.The book value of receivables and loans is periodically subjected to impairment tests. Specific valuations are completed for all non-performing assets, as detailed in current Bank of Italy rules that are consistent with IAS regulations, and for all significant individual positions. The adjustment for exposure is equal to the difference between the book value at which the asset was recorded, and the present value of future cash flows discounted by applying the actual interest rate of the exposure. The projected cash flows take into account expected recovery periods, the estimated execution value of collateral and the legal costs to recover the loan.Performing loans and non-performing loans, for which a specific valuation has been carried out that did not identify any impairment, are measured collectively.The calculation model used by the Banca Intermobiliare Group is an approximation of the approach introduced with the provisions of Basel II concerning the monitoring of the lending sector since there are significant similarities in the measurement of risks inherent in loans under IAS/IFRS and the Basel rules. More specifically, similar loan categories were grouped by product classes, with the parameters PD (probability of default) and LGD (loss given default) associated with each of these. In order to determine collective write-downs for loans, the Group utilised sector-based parameters. Specifically, Bank of Italy’s “decay rates” were used, with appropriate adjustments, where necessary, to take into account specific situations, as PD, while Basel percentages were used for LGD.Write-downs are recorded in the income statement, as are their related write-backs.

Derecognition criteriaLoans are derecognised from the balance sheet if the transfer resulted in the substantial transfer of all loan-related risks and benefits, when contractual rights to receive the related cash flows have expired and in the event of impairment.

Section 5 - Financial assets designated at fair value

The Banca Intermobiliare Group has not required the adoption of the so-called “fair value option,” i.e., it has not taken advantage of the ability to designate at fair value any financial asset other than those for which IAS 39 requires the application of the fair value criterion based on the specific functional use, with the recording of the result of the valuation in the income statement.

Section 6 - Hedging transactions

Risk hedging transactions are carried out to neutralise potential losses on a given element or group of elements attributable to a given risk in the event that the specific risk should actually arise.The types of hedges are as follows:- fair value hedges, in which case the changes in the fair value of the hedged element are offset by changes in the

fair value of the hedging instrument. This offsetting is recognised by recording changes in value to the income statement with reference to both the hedged element and the hedging instrument.

- cash flow hedges, which are used to hedge exposure to changes in future cash flows attributable to specific risks associated with items of the financial statements.

Only financial instruments involving a counterparty outside the Banca Intermobiliare Group may be designated as hedging instruments.

Section 7 - Equity investments

Recognition, classification and valuation criteriaAssociates, i.e., companies subject to significant influence, are considered to be those companies in which the Parent Company holds at least 20% of voting rights either directly or indirectly.If there is evidence that the value of an equity investment may have been reduced, the recoverable value of the investment is assessed, taking into account the present value of future cash flows that may generate from the investment, including its final exit value.If the recoverable value is lower than the book amount, the difference between the two is recognised in the income statement.If the reasons for a loss of value should no longer exist as a result of an event occurring after recognition of the reduction in value, a write-back is performed and entered in the income statement.

Derecognition criteriaEquity investments are derecognised from the balance sheet when contractual rights to cash flows deriving from the assets expire or when essentially all related risks and benefits are transferred along with a transferred equity investment.

Section 8 - tangible fixed assets

Classification criteriaTangible fixed assets include land, property, technical equipment, furniture, furnishings and equipment of any kind which is used in the Group’s business, or to provide services or to be leased to third parties, and which is expected to be used for more than one financial period. This item also includes assets used under finance leases even though legal ownership of such assets remains with the lessor.

Recognition criteria Tangible assets are initially recognised at cost, which, in addition to the purchase price, includes any other ancillary charge attributable to the purchase and implementation of the asset. Extraordinary maintenance costs leading to an increase in future economic benefits are recorded as an increase in the asset value, whereas other ordinary maintenance costs are recorded in the income statement.

Criteria for valuation and recording of operating componentsTangible assets and related improvement costs are assessed at cost less any depreciation or impairment. Depreciation is calculated on the basis of the useful life of the fixed assets on a straight-line basis. It should also be noted that, under the new regulations, leasehold improvements fall under the scope of IAS 16 with reference to tangible assets when such costs are incremental in nature and have “materiality” characteristics, generate future benefits and can be separated from the asset over which the company exercises control.The useful life of depreciable tangible assets is periodically tested. If there are adjustments to initial estimates, the related depreciation charges are also changed.On each financial statement reporting date, an assessment is performed to determine whether there are indications that the asset has been subject to a permanent loss in value. If it has, it is necessary to determine the asset’s recoverable value, i.e., the greater of the net sales price and usage value. If the assumptions that led to the recording of a permanent loss in value no longer apply, a write-back must be recorded in the income statement.

Below are the depreciation rates that were used to prepare these financial statements bearing in mind that depreciation is calculated starting from the date the asset is put in operation.

Buildings:

- Property used for production purposes 2.2%

- Leasehold improvements 12.5%

Furniture:

- Furniture 12%

- Furnishings 12%

Other: - Electronic office equipment 20%- Specific equipment 25%- Machinery and devices 15%- Armoured counters 20%- Vehicles 25%

Derecognition criteriaTangible assets are derecognised on the date of their disposal and when future economic benefits are no longer expected.

Section 9 - Intangible fixed assets

Classification criteriaIntangible fixed assets consist of non-monetary assets that are identifiable, lack physical substance, are held to be used in the company’s operations and generate future economic benefits for the company. Examples of intangible assets are goodwill and software to be used over several years. Goodwill is the positive difference between purchase cost and the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired to reflect any potential surplus value of equity investments acquired.

Criteria for recognition and recording of income components Intangible assets are recognised at cost, adjusted in terms of accessory charges only if it is likely that future economic benefits attributable to the asset will be realised and if the cost of the asset can be reliably determined. Otherwise, the cost of intangible assets is recognised in the income statement in the period in which it occurred. The cost of intangible assets is amortised on a straight line basis throughout its related useful life. If the useful life cannot be defined, no amortisation is carried out, and instead a periodic verification is performed to determine if the book value of assets is adequate. At the end of each financial period, if there is evidence of impairment, the recoverable value of the asset is estimated. The amount of the impairment, which is recorded in the income statement, is equal to the difference between the book value of the asset and the recoverable value.Goodwill may be recorded when the positive difference between the cost paid and the fair value of the net asset acquired is due to the future income-generating capacity of such asset. Since this is an asset with an indefinite useful life, it is not amortised.On an annual basis (or each time there is evidence of impairment) an impairment test is performed on the adequacy of the goodwill value. Any reduction in value is determined on the basis of the difference between the book value of goodwill and its recovery value, if lower. This recovery value is equal to the greater of the fair value, net of any sales costs, and the related usage value. The resulting adjustments are recorded in the income statement.

Derecognition criteriaAn intangible asset is derecognised from the balance sheet at the time of its disposal or when no future economic benefit can be expected.

Section 10 - Non-current assets held for sale

This item includes non-current assets and groups of assets that may be sold in the near future in their current condition and whose sale is considered highly likely.In particular, such assets/liabilities are measured at the lower of their book value and fair value net of sales costs. As operating elements that have been shut down, these assets, and the related charges and income (net of taxes) are reported in the balance sheet and income statement in separate items.

Section 11 - Current and deferred taxes

The Banca Intermobiliare Group recognises the impact of current taxes by applying tax regulations and tax rates in effect at the time the financial statements are prepared. Deferred taxes are calculated on the basis of tax provisions and rates, which, based on the provisions and rates in effect on the date the financial statements are prepared, will be applicable in future periods in which the temporary differences will be relevant for tax purposes.Income taxes are recorded in the income statement and consist of the balance between current and deferred taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities related to transactions affecting the income statement are recognised as an offset in the income statement. However, deferred tax assets and liabilities related to transactions affecting shareholders’ equity are recognised as an offset in shareholders’ equity with reference to specific reserves. The provision for income tax is determined on the basis of a prudent forecast of the current, the prepaid and the deferred tax burden. In particular, prepaid and deferred taxes are calculated on the basis of temporary differences between the attributed value of an asset or liability according to statutory criteria and the corresponding values assumed for tax purposes.Deferred tax assets are generated by deductible temporary differences or by income components, which, for the applicable period, are not recognised for tax purposes, therefore resulting in higher taxable income, and at the same time generating lower taxes in future periods. Deferred tax assets are only recognised when it is likely that there will be taxable income in the period when such temporary differences will be deductible. Deferred tax liabilities are generated by taxable temporary differences or by income components which, for the applicable period, are not recognised for tax purposes, therefore resulting in lower taxable income, and at the same time generating higher taxes in future periods. Assets and liabilities recorded for deferred taxes are regularly assessed to take into account any changes in tax regulations and tax rates.

Section 12 - provisions for risks and charges

Classification criteriaProvisions for risks and charges include allocations made to cover current liabilities resulting from past events for which probable future disbursements of cash were determined. In addition, it must be possible to determine these disbursements using a reliable estimate.

Recognition and valuation criteria The amount recognised is equal to the best estimate of the liability that the Banca Intermobiliare Group will incur,

taking into account the future time when such liabilities will generate any significant actual cash disbursement.The amounts allocated by the Banca Intermobiliare Group are related to client claims and disputes for which a resolution is not anticipated during the year. The funds allocated are reviewed on each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the best current estimate. The allocation was discounted using current market rates and recognised in the income statement.

Derecognition criteriaThe funds allocated are derecognised when the previously estimated liability is eliminated.

Section 13 - payables and outstanding securities

Classification criteriaThis item includes payables to banks, payables to customers, issued and outstanding securities and financial statement entries incorporating the various forms of interbank and customer deposits. Outstanding securities consisting of bonds issued by the Bank, are reported in the financial statements net of any portion repurchased. Payables to customers also include payables to leasing companies in connection with finance lease transactions.

Recognition and valuation criteria When first recorded in the financial statements, outstanding securities are measured at their fair value, plus any transaction costs, which represents the amount collected. Payables with a short-term maturity are maintained at nominal value. Long-term payables and issued bonds with transaction costs are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Purchases and sales of securities issued by the Group constitute redemptions and new issues of its own securities. The value of new issues is equal to the new placement price with no impact from the transaction on the income statement. Derivative components embedded in bonds issued by the Group were separated. For convertible bonds, the derivative was separated and reported under “Equity instruments,” and subsequently measured at cost.For structured bonds with underlying assets other than own shares, embedded derivatives were classified under liabilities held for trading and subsequently designated at their fair value if the prerequisites of IAS 39 were met.

Derecognition criteriaThese liabilities are derecognised from the balance sheet only when they expire or are redeemed.The difference between the book value of the liability and the amount paid as a repurchase is recorded in the income statement. The replacement of own shares on the market after their repurchase is considered a new issue with recognition at the new placement price.

Section 14 - Financial liabilities held for trading

Classification criteriaThis item includes the negative value of trading derivative contracts, the negative value of embedded derivative contracts separated from bonds issued by the Parent Company and liabilities resulting from technical exposures generated from trading activity.

Recognition and valuation criteria Financial liabilities held for trading are measured using the same criteria applied to financial assets held for trading

Criteria for inclusionTransactions in foreign currency are recorded, at the time of their initial recognition, in the accounting currency, applying the foreign currency exchange rate valid on the transaction date.

valuation criteria and recognition of income componentsMonetary elements in foreign currency are converted using the rate at the end of the period.Non-monetary elements, which are measured at historical cost in foreign currency, are converted using the exchange rate in effect on the date of the transaction. Non-monetary elements designated at fair value in a foreign currency are converted using the exchange rates on the date on which fair value was determined.Exchange differences deriving from monetary element settlements or from conversions to rates different from the original rates applied or from conversions of previous financial statements are recorded in the income statement in the period in which they arise.When profit or loss relating to a non-monetary element is recorded under shareholders’ equity, any exchange difference relating to that element is also recorded under shareholders’ equity. Otherwise, when a profit or loss is recorded in the income statement, any related exchange difference is also recorded in the income statement.

date (in the event of equity-settled share-based transactions) or the recording of a liability at the current value on the reporting date (in the event of cash-settled share-based transactions).

Recognition of costs and revenuesRevenues are recorded in the income statement in the periods in which the related costs are reported. Income from fees and commissions and from other services is recorded in the financial statements in the periods in which the services were rendered.Other income is recorded in the financial statements according to the accrual principle.

Employees’ severance fundFollowing the pension reform implemented under Law No. 296 of 27 December 2006, it is essential, for accounting purposes, to distinguish between the amount of the employees’ severance fund accrued up to 31 December 2006 and the amount accrued starting 1 January 2007 (the effective date of the reform). The employees’ severance fund accrued starting 1 January 2007 is treated as a defined contribution plan (the company’s obligation to employees is fulfilled with its payment of contributions to supplemental pension funds). Based on the above, the company: • records the obligation for amounts accrued to 31 December 2006, according to the rules for defined benefit plans,

using actuarial procedures. Actuarial gains and losses continue to be recorded at the end of the period in the income statement (without using the corridor approach);

• records the obligation for amounts accruing from 1 January 2007 and owed to supplemental pension funds on the basis of contributions due each period (in this case, it is not necessary to report actuarial assumptions or discount the obligation since it matures in less than 12 months);

• records the obligation for amounts accruing from 1 January 2007 that remain in the company and are added to the amounts accrued to 31 December 2006.

valuation reservesValuation reserves are determined as a function of valuation rules indicated for the assets and liabilities concerned, e.g., assets available for sale and stock options. These reserves also include the impact from the first application of IAS.This item includes valuation reserves for financial assets available for sale and for tangible and intangible assets revalued at the time of the first application of IAS/IFRS.

use of estimates and assumptions in the preparation of financial statementsIn the preparation of financial statements, the Banca Intermobiliare Group, through its management and/or outside contractors, used estimates and assumptions to calculate balance sheet and income statement entries that entailed the processing and interpretation of available information and thus assessments that may be more or less subjective in nature.The main analyses that require subjective assessments are the following:• The assessment of the recoverable value of loans, also by means of assessing collateral or other financial

assets (e.g., the measurement of fair value of unlisted financial instruments) and thus the related losses due to impairment;

• The assessment of the sustainability of the value of goodwill and intangible assets;• Quantifying provisions for staff and provisions for risks and charges;• The recoverability of deferred tax assets;• The allocation of acquisition costs within the scope of IFRS 3.

FINANCIAL YEAR 2010

Impairment of financial instrumentsOn each reporting date, the financial assets not classified as “Financial assets held for trading” are subject to impairment tests in order to determine if their book value is fully recoverable.With specific reference to financial assets available for sale, a decrease in fair value below the acquisition cost of the financial instrument is to be considered objective evidence of impairment if the reduction in value is significant or long-lasting. In this situation, any accumulated losses during the period or negative shareholders’ equity reserves must be recorded in the income statement. If in future periods the preconditions for write-backs can be met, the write-backs for equity securities and undertakings for collective investment (UCIs) are recorded under shareholders’ equity reserves, while those related to debt securities are recorded in the income statement. In order to recognise any evidence of impairment, the Banca Intermobiliare Group takes into consideration all qualitative information about the issuer that could lead to loss events, as highlighted by IAS 39, §59-60, and quantitative information concerning the decrease in fair value of the financial instrument compared to acquisition cost. With reference to the latter, the Banca Intermobiliare Group has established an internal policy aimed at identifying cases in which a decrease in fair value must be considered significant or long-lasting. On the one hand, the criteria used call for the direct allocation of adjustments to the income statement for losses greater than 60% of the total value, or losses that last for a period of over 48 months. On the other hand, they call for the use of control filters and other qualitative and fundamental analyses, as required for securities which show no signs of impairment, but still reflect a loss in value of over 30% of book value.

Fair value is defined as the price for which an asset can be exchanged or a liability settled between knowledgeable and willing parties in a transaction between unrelated parties.Following the revision to IFRS 7, § 27, in order to ensure more complete information on the degree of discretion in the valuation of financial instruments reported in the financial statements, a ranking of the methods used to determine fair value was developed. Three pricing methodologies were defined and ranked on a hierarchical scale:1) Prices in active markets: official or operational prices (in the case of contributors) available in active markets

take priority for the determination of fair value.2) Pricing models with market parameters: in the absence of an active market, the instrument must be valued by

loading pricing models with input data available directly and indirectly on the market (rates, credit spreads, etc.).3) Pricing models with estimated parameters: the final level is based on the determination of fair value using

estimates and assumptions for data not available from the market.

The amount of the reclassification was EUR 34,050,000, which is equal to the value stated in the recent real estate appraisal carried out by the subsidiary Immobiliare D S.r.l.At 31 December 2010, the Group’s real estate appraisals were updated resulting in appraised values higher than book values. The fair values of real properties compared to previous appraisals showed that they held their market value, and there was a significant increase for certain properties.

Goodwill recorded in the financial statements at 31 December 2010 totalled EUR 65,294,000, of which EUR 49,446,000 related to the subsidiary Symphonia Sgr and EUR 15,848,000 to the subsidiary Ipibi.

At 31 December 2010, the determination of the recoverable value of CGUs for equity investments recorded in the financial statements at a book value higher than reported shareholders’ equity showed recoverable values that fully justified the surplus values recognised as goodwill. Thus, it was not necessary to apply any impairment to the goodwill.

Paragraph 13.3 “Other information” in this section provides the methodologies used for impairment tests including the information required by IAS 36.

Impairment tests are performed at least annually, in accordance with IAS 36, with reference to the verification of potential losses in goodwill value recorded in the consolidated financial statements and resulting from acquisitions of equity investments or business units.The commonly used valuation process is the following:• Identification of cash generating units (CGUs) and allocation of related goodwill;• Determination of the book value of the CGU;• Determination of the recoverable value using the reference valuation method known as discounted cash flow

(DCF). For financial companies, DCF is commonly applied to the so-called dividend discount model (DDM), which calls for discounting cash flows that are generated and that can potentially be distributed taking into account the absorption of capital from operations and the available excess capital. The model is applied on the basis of operating and financial figures reported in year-end final results or in the budget and/or business plans approved by the boards of directors of the companies concerned;

• Performance of sensitivity analysis to verify the sensitivity of the valuation - determined using the impairment test - to changes in the key assumptions and parameters. In particular, an analysis that measures the degree of change in assumptions and parameters beyond which the impairment test cannot substantiate the goodwill allocated to the CGU is performed;

• Any other consideration concerning the existence of external indicators of impairment in absence of asset write-downs;

• Directors’ approval of the impairment procedure prior to the approval of the financial reports.

At 31 December 2010, the valuations of equity investments recorded in the financial statements at a book value higher than reported shareholders’ equity showed recoverable values that fully justified the surplus values recognised as goodwill. Thus, it was not necessary to apply any impairment to the goodwill.

Description of the impairment test on goodwill recorded for Symphonia

For the purposes of the impairment test, the entity resulting from the merger on 1 January 2010 of Bim Alternative Investments Sgr into Symphonia Sgr was identified as the only Cash Generating Unit to which the goodwill resulting from the acquisition of Symphonia Sgr and Bim Alternative Sgr was allocated. The decision to consider the post-merger company as the only cash generating unit is substantiated by the decision-making process (a single management team that makes strategic and operating decisions), by the internal reporting procedure and by the changes in the characteristics of the business which reflects an increasing convergence between traditional products and hedge products.

The value of the Cash Generating Unit (EUR 128.1 million) corresponds to the contribution of Symphonia Sgr and Bim Alternative Investments Sgr to consolidated net assets, and to the value of the goodwill, totalling EUR 49,400.In order to determine the recoverable value of the Cash Generating Unit, value in use was applied. The value in use of Symphonia Sgr was determined by applying the dividend discount method (DDM), which calls for the capitalisation of cash flows generated for the group that may potentially be distributed (including the terminal value of the company calculated on the basis of the standard capacity to generate income), to which excess capital must be added as necessary.

The model was applied on the basis of the following operating and financial figures:- Final results for 2010;- The 2011 budget for Symphonia Sgr approved by its board of directors. The use of this document is substantiated by the fact that it represents the formal instrument used by directors to plan and manage the company’s operations.The Financial year 2010 ended with a profit of EUR 6.2 million compared to EUR 10.8 million in 2009; this reduction was mainly due to lower performance fees that had made a positive contribution in the previous year. At 31 December 2010, AUM (net of Group duplications) were up 4% to EUR 4,256 million. Budget figures were adjusted to take into account the lack of income generated by excess capital, which is assessed separately, and 50% of income generated from the merger with Banca Ipibi, which was already allocated to the latter as income synergies.

Income synergies generated from Banca Intermobiliare due to the presence of Symphonia Sgr in the group were also allocated to the assessed Cash Generating Unit.These synergies largely included:- Trading fees for trading operations carried out by Symphonia Sgr through Banca Intermobiliare;- Fees for custodial bank services carried out by Banca Intermobiliare on behalf of the GPM lines of Symphonia Sgr;- The spread generated by the return on current accounts on which the cash from GPM lines is deposited.These synergies, which can be measured by management control systems, are significant for the overall valuation, and are unequivocally attributable to the fact that Symphonia Sgr is a part of the Banca Intermobiliare Group. These synergies do not represent, among other things, a cost for Symphonia Sgr since they are costs incurred by investment funds and GPMs.

The cash flows used for the purposes of DDM projections totalled EUR 6,200 for 2010 (corresponding to the net profit of Symphonia) and projected cash flows for 2011 were EUR 8,100.Excess capital of EUR 27.2 million was added to the value determined from the discounting of cash flows. This calculation took into consideration both the minimum current regulatory capital and the regulatory capital required for the company’s future growth. della crescita futura della società.

The following parameters were used to apply the model:i) a cost of equity of 8.9% (8.5% for the previous year) determined on the basis of:• Risk free rate: a figure of 4.6% (4% the previous year) was used, which is equal to the average return on the ten-

year BTP [multi-year treasury bond] for the last month of the year;• Risk premium of 4.5% (unchanged from the previous year) based on the implicit value in current market prices

and the average amount for past years;• Beta of 0.96 (1 in the previous year) based on the volatility of competitors/comparables: over the two-year period

2009-2010 Betas between 0.87 and 1 were observed;ii) a g of 1% (prudential indicator of limited economic growth and inflation).

Using this model, the value of the CGU was determined at EUR 225.5 million, which is substantially higher than its book value and thus no external indicators of impairment were found.

In addition, a sensitivity analysis was performed on:- the two main operating variables: assets and return on assets;- the two main DDM parameters: Beta and growth rate, g.

Assets -10% +10%

Gross return -10 bp +10 bp


Beta +0.25 -0.25


Growth rate, g -0.5% +0.5%


Synergies -25% +25%


For each variable, the degree of change necessary in order for the impairment test to fail to support the goodwill was assessed. The outcome of these sensitivity analyses would indicate the need for impairment in the following cases:- assets down by 58%;- return down by 63 basis points;- Beta of 1.8, bringing Ke to 17%;- g equal to -7.1%.

Description of the impairment test on goodwill recorded for Banca Ipibi

For the purposes of the impairment test, the value of goodwill resulting from the Banca IPIBI acquisition was allocated to the company overall, which was identified as the single Cash Generating Unit.The book value of the CGU (EUR 48 million) corresponds to Ipibi’s contribution to consolidated net assets and to the value of goodwill (EUR 15,848).In order to determine the recoverable value of the Cash Generating Unit, value in use was applied. The value in use of Banca IPIBI was determined by applying the dividend discount model (DDM), which calls for the capitalisation of cash flows that are generated for the group and that can potentially be distributed taking into account the absorption of capital from operations and the available excess capital.

The model was applied on the basis of the following operating and financial figures:- Final results for 2010;- the 2011 budget for Banca Ipibi.

The year 2010 ended with net interest and other banking income of EUR 8 million, an increase of 35.7%, with a net loss of EUR 2.3 million (compared to EUR 2.7 million in 2009). It should be noted that profits were negatively affected by the one-time costs related to the expansion of the financial advisor network and to the write-down of financial assets. The annual budget approved by the board of directors of Banca Ipibi on 15 December 2010 was used for the model. It updates the projections in the three-year plan of 2010-2013 (approved by the board of directors in December 2009) that was used for the impairment test for the previous financial year. During this financial year, Banca Ipibi will update estimates for the other years covered by the plan taking into account sales performance at the beginning of the year. Thus, the DDM model was applied using only the figures from the updated plans, i.e. the operating and financial figures from the 2011 budget, while for future years, to be conservative, no growth in assets was projected, except for the application of the perpetual growth rate (+1%).

The present value of expected income synergies from the inclusion of Banca Ipibi in the Banca Intermobiliare Group, and the bank’s cost associated with exercising Ipibi warrants were added to the valuation made using the DDM.

The DDM model is based on the assumption that operating results, generally speaking, correspond to cash flow. In the case of Banca IPIBI, the accrual of charges for new financial advisors does not correspond to actual cash flows. As a result, for the purposes of implementing the DDM model, we adjusted the operating figures based on the true manifestation of cash.A three-year period (2011-2013) was used for the projection of cash flows as part of the Bank’s valuation, also in order to incorporate the last financial year (2012) in which deposit-related costs are incurred, to arrive at a standard year (2013). Distributable cash flows were calculated assuming the maintenance of a Core Tier 1 ratio of 8%. RWA were estimated taking into account changes in credit, counterparty, market and operational risk.With regard to the results used as a reference for the calculation of the Terminal Value, for the standard year, an annual cost for deposits of approximately EUR 2 million was conservatively incorporated (this element explains the reason why the cash flow used in the Terminal Value is lower than that for a standard year). Excess capital available at 31 December 2010 amounting to approximately EUR 4.4 million (determined as the excess over the minimum level of regulatory capital of 8%), was added to the amount determined from the discounting of cash flows of EUR 39.7 million resulting in an equity value of EUR 44.2 million.

and the average amount for previous years;• Beta of 0.96 (1 in the previous year) based on the volatility of competitors/comparables: over the two-year period

2009-2010 Betas between 0.87 and 1 were observed;ii) a g of 1% (conservative indicator of contained levels of economic growth and inflation).

Income synergies generated for the Banca Intermobiliare Group due to the acquisition of Banca Ipibi were also allocated to the assessed Cash Generating Unit.These synergies involved the placement of Symphonia and Bim Vita products, the bond issuing and the trading activity of the parent company Banca Intermobiliare. In order to determine the value created by synergies, a standardised figure based on asset levels reached at the end of 2011, which will be productive in future years, was identified. In keeping with the DDM model, synergies were capitalised at a Ke of 8.92% and a g of 1%.

With reference to the impact of Ipibi warrants on the model, in keeping with the operating and financing figures used in the DDM, the maximum charge for the bank’s exercise of the warrants was estimated. Banca IPIBI has an incentive plan in place that calls for the allocation of 2.35 million warrants to the network for every billion euros in net inflow. The warrants entitle the holder to purchase Banca Ipibi shares in the ratio of one share for every individual warrant at a price equal to shareholders’ equity plus goodwill calculated at 3% of assets (shares are made available by Banca Intermobiliare). Purchasers of the shares will have the right to sell such shares to Banca Intermobiliare and/or Veneto Banca at any time for an amount which again is calculated as shareholders’ equity plus goodwill calculated at 3% of assets. To summarise, on the basis of the DDM of EUR 44.2 million, the contribution of synergies and the cost related to the incentive plan were totalled, resulting in an overall valuation of EUR 61.8 million which is greater than the book value of the Cash Generating Unit; therefore, no external indicators of impairment were found.

Other aspectsThe useful life of intangible fixed assets other than goodwill is defined; all intangible fixed assets are held for operating purposes and amortisation is performed on a straight-line basis on the remaining useful life. At 31 December 2010, there were no commitments to purchase intangible assets of any significant amount.

Option to use the national tax consolidation regimeFor the three-year period 2010-2012, the Group decided once again to use the group taxation regime pursuant to Article 117 of the TUIR [Income Tax Consolidation Act]. The consolidation area (which, pursuant to the TUIR, may include companies that are subsidiaries on 1 January of the year in which the option is renewed or exercised) includes Cofito S.p.A., as the holding company, Symphonia SGR S.p.A., Bim Fiduciaria S.p.A., Bim Immobiliare S.r.l. and Immobiliare D S.r.l. (equity investment purchased by Banca Intermobiliare on 28 December 2009 to recover loans) as consolidated companies.Banca Ipibi was not included in Cofito’s consolidation area since the percentage held by the latter as a result of the “gearing down”, due to the presence of Bim in the related equity investment chain, was 36%.

The board of directors may grant authorisation to purchase and hold treasury shares, using the shares as payment in extraordinary transactions or to fulfil obligations related to distribution programmes, to share options or shares provided to directors, employees and consultants, and to programmes for the free allocation of shares to shareholders.

Purchases and sales during the financial yearAt 31 December 2010, the Group held 7,167,946 Banca Intermobiliare shares compared to 6,970,101 shares held at the end of the previous year.In accordance with the provisions of resolutions to authorise the purchase and sale of treasury shares, the Bank carried out the following transactions during the year:- Market purchases of 405,473 shares for a total of EUR 1.6 million, allocated to the trading portfolio; - Market sales of 207,628 shares totalling EUR 800,000.

15.4 REtAINED EARNINGS: ADDItIoNAL INFoRmAtIoN

The legal reserve, which was established by law, must be equal to at least one fifth of share capital; in the past it was funded by allocations equal to 5% of annual net profits. The statutory or undivided profit reserve is formed in accordance with the Articles of Association by allocating the portion of profit remaining after the distribution of profits on shares.Lastly, other reserves are funded as a result of allocations of shares and stock options and as a balancing entry for the elimination of operating components resulting from the trading of treasury shares.

In the following part E “Information on risks and relative hedging policies”, some tables provide information for the entire Banking Group given that the consolidated financial statements do not include insurance companies other than Bim Vita, which was consolidated using the equity method. In addition, the other companies which are not part of the Banking Group (Bim Immobiliare S.r.l., Immobiliare D S.r.l. e Bim Insurance Brokers S.p.A.) have balances for certain items on the financial statements - relating to credit, market and liquidity risks - that are close to zero or insignificant.

internal control SyStem

The internal control system of the Banca Intermobiliare Group is structured with different levels of control, including:- Operational controls, which aim to ensure the appropriate fulfilment of operations; these therefore refer to controls of

a hierarchical nature which are conducted by the productive organization itself and are generally incorporated into the procedures or implemented as back-office activities.

- Risk Management controls - these activities aim to define methodologies for measuring risk, for verifying compliance with the limits assigned to the various operational departments and for monitoring the consistency of the operations of individual production areas with risk/return objectives. Risk management controls are entrusted to non-productive departments.

- Compliance - these controls aim to monitor risks associated with the failure to comply with external and internal regulations.

- Internal Audit - these activities aim to identify anomalous trends or violations of procedures or of internal and external regulations as well as assessing the overall functionality of the internal control system. These activities are carried out by non-operational and independent departments.

Level II control functions - such as Risk Management and Compliance - were, at 31/12/2010, under the responsibility of the Risk and Compliance Department, which reports directly to the CEO; level III control functions - Internal Audit and Investment Services Audit - are part of the Audit Department, which reports to the Board of Directors.Below is a summary of the tasks implemented by each department:

risk managementThis department ensures the integrated measurement and control of risks by monitoring and analyzing the overall risk exposure of the bank and of the Group companies, in accordance with the provisions of the Supervisory Authority and international best practices. In particular, the department supports the Bank and the Group in identifying, managing and controlling assumed risks and represents the organizational structure which has been delegated responsibility for determining the overall internal capital for ICAAP purposes.The responsibilities of the Risk Management Department are the following:• ICAAP Process;• Market Risk;• Credit and Counterparty Risk;• Operating Risk;• Other risks; •The pricing of financial instruments which are held companion the proprietary account and on behalf of third parties;• Monitoring of client operations in relation to listed derivatives and OTC instruments.

compliance & anti-money launderingThe “compliance department” is entrusted with verifying that the sectors which fall within its area of competence - as assigned by the Board of Directors - contain mechanisms able to ensure compliance with those regulations that affect

client relations activities.This department is an integral part of the internal control system and serves as an instrument to ensure an appropriate and prudent management of the Group with oversight over legal and image-related risks that could potentially affect its stability and compromise the trust relationship with clients. This Department typically implements its activities by:- identifying risks of non-compliance;- defining procedures for monitoring and control;- auditing operations;- providing advisory to the corporate bodies;- training and giving awareness to the personnel.The offices of the Company Anti-Money Laundering Manager (CAM) for the parent company are centralized within the Compliance Department. This Department is also responsible for operations that are suspected of market abuse.

auditing department The Auditing Department represents the focal point of level III Controls and is subdivided into two sub-departments - Internal Audit and Investment Services Audit - on the basis of professional specializations and types of process.

internal auditThe goal of the activities of this department is to determine whether the risk management process as well as the control and governance system - as structured by company management - are adequate and functional for ensuring that:- risks are identified and managed in an appropriate manner;- there is sufficient interaction between the various governance divisions;- financial, managerial and operational reporting is accurate, precise and timely;- company operations are conducted in compliance with internal and external regulations;- company assets are managed in an efficient manner and adequately protected;- company programs, projects and objectives are realized;- the control process is subject to continuous qualitative improvements;- critical legislative or regulatory issues are promptly recognized and managed.The Internal Audit Department implements the following activities in compliance with the annual auditing/controls plan:- targeted activities;- recurrent activities;- advisory support;- relations with internal governance bodies: Internal Control Committee, Board of Statutory Auditors, 231 Supervisory Body.This department monitors the activities implemented by the other control departments of the Bank and of subsidiaries; these activities are implemented by means of informational flows and with direct audits on companies of the Group or on individual processes of the latter, in accordance with the annual auditing plan.The Internal Control System - ICS - and the risk situation are periodically reported to the Internal Control Committee, which plays an active role by using the control departments of the Bank to define policies for the internal control system; this is undertaken in order for the primary risks related to the issuer and its subsidiaries to be correctly identified as well as adequately measured, managed and monitored, thereby also determining criteria for the compatibility of these risks with an appropriate and correct management of the company. The Group, as of October 2008, was also equipped with a Supervisory Body pursuant to Legislative Decree no. 231/01; the latter is entrusted with the task of monitoring the adequacy and effective implementation/functioning of the Model, in addition to compliance with the latter and with the Code of Ethics by the corporate bodies, the employees and the collaborators of the companies of the Banca Intermobiliare Group.

Section 1 - riSkS relating to the banking group

1.1 - credit riSk

QUALITATIVE INFORMATION

1 general informationThe credit activity of the Banca Intermobiliare Group primarily targets private clients with which the Group maintains or intends to maintain relations for the supply of investment and/or asset management services. In accordance with the mission of the Group, credit activity plays a complementary role to the primary activity of investment in financial instruments as well as management and structuring of client assets and fostering of long-term client loyalty.With reference to policies on risk-taking, one of the guiding principles in the management and formulation of strategic choices is the effective and detailed oversight of the quality of the exposures. Each policy, therefore, aims to maintain an elevated quality for loans while keeping in mind the business objectives.

2 credit risk management policies

2.1 organizational factorsIn accordance with the definition used in literature and within the system, credit risk refers to the possibility that an unexpected change in the creditworthiness of the debtor could cause a corresponding unexpected change in the market value of its exposure with reference to the Banca Intermobiliare Group. The organizational structure of the bank ensures an adequate process for monitoring and managing credit risk, following the logic which separates business and control departments.The Board of Directors is exclusively entrusted with functions and powers relative to the determination of policies that affect the general management of the company’s business operations. With reference to internal controls, the Board of Directors approves strategic guidelines as well as risk management policies in addition to the organizational structure of the bank.The system of delegation required by the internal policy approved by the Board of Directors is significant; this system assigns specific powers to certain company bodies and departments in relation to deliberations on credit lines.The management of the credit process occurs in two distinct phases:- the initial valuation phase;- during the course of the relationship with the counterparty.In order to increase the creditworthiness of the portfolio of loans, the Banca Intermobiliare Group deemed it opportune to concentrate all the phases related to the assumption and control of risk within the General Management Department of the bank, thereby obtaining - through the specialization of resources and the separation of duties at all decision levels - a high degree of homogeneity when granting credit lines and strong monitoring of the individual positions.The process for loan disbursement is regulated by a coded internal procedure which defines the roles of the company bodies and departments that are involved. With reference to and in compliance with the system of delegation required by the Board of Directors, specific responsibilities have been assigned for assessing and assuming risk. In particular, the branch offices of the bank have very limited deliberative autonomy in assuming credit risk and, in any case, the procedure for individual proposals is always implemented by the General Management. On the other hand, the branches are delegated the responsibility for regional business development, in addition to client relations management.Credit activities are centralized within the Financial Services Division, which includes:

- the Credit Analysis Department, which is entrusted with preliminary investigative activities as well as the assessment of creditworthiness of requesting clients;

- the Credit Department, which is entrusted with all activities associated with erogating and managing decisions in relation to credit lines;

- the Monitoring and Reporting Department, which is responsible for monitoring the quality of individual credit lines as well as verifying, over time, any collateral used to secure the credit lines. It also oversees credit collection activities for anomalous and impaired positions.

The Risk Management Department has been delegated the responsibility for implementing controls with reference to the market, the counterparties and the operational risks of the Group.

2.2 management, measurement and control systemsSystems for the management, measurement and control of credit risk are developed within an organizational environment that involves the entire process cycle from the initial investigative phase to the periodical review and monitoring phases.During the initial investigative phase, the bank internally and externally investigates the client which will potentially receive credit and reaches a final decision by considering the overall information on the economic party; this information is the result of direct knowledge of the client and of the economic environment in which he operates.The initial investigative activities relating to the operational process which will lead to disbursement and the periodic review are implemented in order to grant a suitable credit to each individual case, in accordance with both the autonomous repayment capacity of the party and the technical format of the credit line, plus any collateral guarantees.Credit risk is managed with the aid of procedures and tools which allow a timely identification of positions that present particular anomalies. On the basis of evidence which suggests doubtful credit, the latter is classified as monitored or restructured, impaired or bad debt. Credit controls are based on a series of activities which are implemented with different periodic frequencies (daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly and annual), all of which are dedicated to the recording (automatic and manual) of indices which could report potential impairment in the quality of the authorised credit line: anomalous trends of the relationships, loss of value of accessory guarantees, negative returns from the System (risk headquarters, Cai, Cerved, etc.).

anomalous trends of the relationships: - daily auditing activities in relation to overdrafts (overdrafts procedure of Cedacri), which are automatically

managed on the basis of the grid of powers of authorisation delegated by the Board of Directors to the various departments within the company;

- monthly control activities on unpaid outstanding loans;- quarterly reporting of positions reporting persistent overdrafts.

loss of value of accessory guarantees:- weekly audit of the suitability of secured guarantees through the Simox application;- annual audit of the suitability of mortgage guarantees with the Ribes application, which audits the values of the

surveys present in the database of the Bank;

negative returns for the system:- verification of the anomalies that are automatically detected with reference to return feeds from Bank of Italy;- verification of the client reports from Cai.

The Risk Management Department conducts trend analysis of asset requirements on a quarterly basis, by calculating credit and concentration risks and by verifying that these requirements are coherent with the ones reported in the

preceding analysis periods. The department subsequently applies stress tests to the results and, on the basis of these results, implements an analysis of the capacity of the assets of the Group to absorb potential losses as well as on correct actions which could be implemented in order to reduce and preserve the assets.

2.3 credit risk mitigation techniquesIn the development of the operational process which leads to the allocation of a credit line, the assessment of creditworthiness is, first of all, based on the effective capacity of the debtor to meet its obligations and his capacity to generate adequate financial flows (defined by the Supervisory Body as the “debt fulfilment” capacity of the debtor). In connection with the granting of credit lines, Banca Intermobiliare acquires suitable collateral guarantees on properties and pledges on financial instruments as well as personal guarantees (independent guarantee agreement). A prudential haircut is applied to the value of the secured guarantees; this deviation varies in relation to the type of securities being pledged. Given the revolving nature of the acquired pledges, the suitability of the secured guarantees is monitored on a weekly basis by means of the Simox procedure which allows a comparison between the current value of the guarantees and their historical values. The haircuts required by internal regulations are applied to the acquisition of mortgage guarantees; these are primarily differentiated on the basis of the type of property and the purposes for which the loan is requested. The value of the expert survey is updated on an annual basis through the Ribes procedure.The guarantees received from the bank are drafted with contractual methods based on consistent sector standards and with the most recent legal developments.To mitigate credit risk, margining contracts are stipulated; their aim is to guarantee Bank exposure with clients in relation to OTC (Over The Counter) financial instruments. The monitoring of these positions is implemented by the Risk Management Department. ISDA contracts (International Swaps and Derivatives Association contracts, considered the market benchmark contract) are utilized to hedge against counterparty risk; these contracts allow the bank to benefit from a regulatory framework which guarantees against the potential netting/unwinding of positions with insolvent counterparties.

2.4 impaired financial assetsIn Banca Intermobiliare, doubtful loans are managed by the Financial Services Division - for positions classified as persistent overdrafts, monitored, restructured and impaired - and by the Legal & Compliance Division with reference to other bad debts.The Monitoring & Reporting department:- proposes the revocation of credit lines for new positions in default;- supplies assistance and advisory services for the stipulation of payback and restructuring agreements in support of

clients;- implements actions which aim to recover loans in default and to acquire additional guarantees;- estimates forecasted losses in an analytical manner for each individual client relationship.

The Legal Department: - followes the resolution by the competent body to re-classify a loan as a bad debt, manages the closure of accounts

in the name of the client and implements the Bad Debt Procedure;- collaborates with the external law firm for credit collection and to analytically estimate expected losses for each

client account;- proposes the potential re-classification to loss in case of a negative outcome of the credit collection and/or if the

legal actions themselves are not economically feasible.

a.2 claSSification of expoSureS on the baSiS of external and internal ratingS

Banca Intermobiliare, for the purposes of determining the Internal Capital for credit risk, uses the standardized methodology (line-by-line method) which is required for determining the supervisory requirements associated with credit risk. The standardized methodology provides the subdivision of exposures into various classes (portfolios) on the basis of the nature of the counterparty, the technical characteristics of the relationship or the methods of implementation of the latter; in addition, diversified weighting coefficients are applied to each portfolio.With reference to this aspect, the bank uses the creditworthiness assessments issued by the specialized rating agency, Moody’s, in order to determine weighting factors for exposures included in the following portfolios:• Exposures with reference to central administrations and central banks: Rating characteristics - unsolicited;• Exposures with reference to international organizations: Rating characteristics - unsolicited;• Exposures with reference to multilateral development banks: Rating characteristics - unsolicited;• Exposures with reference to companies and other parties: Rating characteristics - unsolicited;• Exposures with reference to undertakings for collective investments: Rating characteristics - solicited;• Positions with reference to securitizations that have a short-term rating;• Positions with reference to securitizations that do not have a short-term rating.As for other exposures not included within the regulatory classes listed above, reference is made to the various

weighting factors which are provided by the regulations themselves for the standardized methodology. a.2.1 banking group - cash and off-balance sheet credit exposures subdivided by external rating classes

b.4 Significant expoSureS (in accordance with SuperviSory regulationS)

Following the 6th update of Memorandum 263 “New provisions of prudential supervision for banks” dated 27 December 2010, the regulations pertaining to significant exposures were broadly revised by Directive 2009/111/EC which amends directives 2006/48 and 2006/49. The previous EC regulation was characterized by a “minimum harmonization” approach which gave member states and national supervisory authorities broad margins of choice in both incorporating and correctly applying harmonized rules.The revision which was recently applied aims to create a high level of consistency between regulations and the supervisory practices at the EU level. This objective is attained by significantly reducing the level of discretion allowed for individual member states.In particular, the criteria for calculating and weighting risk positions are modified as a result of the elimination of numerous pre-existing national areas of discretion. The primary implication relates to the definition of significant exposure, which is defined as exposure totalling 10% or more of the regulatory capital and without the application of the required weighting factors. Previous regulations, on the other hand, identified significant exposures as the risk position - or the weighted exposure according to the required rules - totalling 10% or more of the regulatory capital.As a result, the amount and number of significant exposures at 31 December 2010 increased significantly with respect to the value at 31 December 2009; however, this exclusively occurred as a result of a different regulatory framework.

general factorsThe governance model of the Group is based on the centralized management of market risk. The parent company Banca Intermobiliare:• defines the guidelines for an integrated management of risks at Group level;• is responsible for the market risk management policy. The governance model which regulates the process for managing and controlling Group risk is, in addition, based on the following principles:• separation between risk management and risk control processes;• development of risk management and control processes in accordance with the hierarchical structure of the Group

and the Bank through a process of delegation.The Board of Directors defines the general strategic direction and plays a managerial role in addition to creating policies and verifying the compliance of the risk governance structure at Group level; in particular, it defines market risk propensity by identifying clear areas of responsibility and by establishing specific operational limits.The Chief Executive Officer implements the risk governance, management and control process by ensuring that the latter complies with the strategic guidelines defined by the Board of Directors. The Risk Committee - in relation to all the risks to which the bank is exposed - assesses and approves methodologies and procedures as appropriate, as well as methods for reporting to senior management, in accordance with the strategic guidelines of the Board of Directors. The committee also defines market risk management and control policies in accordance with the risk-return objectives set by the Board of Directors.The Risk Management department proposes the methodologies and processes that must be adopted at Group level by formalizing the risk policies that must be presented for approval to the Board of Directors following validation by the Risk Committee.

In particular, the Risk Management department - in relation to the management of market risk - is responsible for:• Ensuring consistency of internal regulations with the strategies expressed by the Board of Directors in relation to

the assumption of risk;• Defining the market risk management model with the collaboration of the Financial Markets Division;• Proposing the structure of operating limits and supervisory thresholds at Bank and Group levels on the basis of the

operations within the Financial Markets Division and market trends;• Monitoring daily operational limits (as resolved by the Board of Directors) as well as supervisory thresholds, in

compliance with the frequency established by the Risk Committee;• Verifying proposals for corrective action in relation to the management of cases where risk limits and supervisory

thresholds are exceeded;• Identifying - in conjunction with the Financial Markets Division - the market risk contained in new financial

products to be included within the portfolio;• Drafting reports to be sent to governance bodies and operational departments involved in the management of

market risk, including evidence of any potential anomalies.

pricing processThe Risk Management department provides the determination of the fair value of all financial instruments, both securities and derivatives, in addition to their classification into three hierarchical fair value levels, as defined in the consolidated explanatory notes - Part A, “Accounting Policies” (to which reference is made); in particular, the fair value proposed by the various procedures for all financial instruments which are traded on an active market must be validated while, in case of securities that are not traded on active markets, the fair value is determined by means of different valuation models, in accordance with the hierarchy established by the accounting principles.The pricing control implemented by risk management is not only carried out for the purposes of measuring the “fair value” of individual assets but it is also part of a broader policy of monitoring the risk/return ratio of these financial instruments.

The fair value valuation criteria for financial instruments are illustrated below. The Risk Management Department is entrusted with the task of verifying whether the security is traded on an active market or not; in order to classify a market as “active”, the following characteristics must apply:• Frequency of trades: the financial instrument must be traded at least once every five working days between each

valuation date.• Significance of volumes: the degree of significance of the traded volumes is calculated by combining the

following elements:- Status of the issue: issue amount, presence of other issues of the issuer;- Issue amount held in the portfolio;- Average volume of trades (if derivable on the basis of information from the counterparties);- Rating of the issue;- Rating of the issuer;- Rating of the country.

A financial instrument is only considered traded on an active market if one of the following conditions exists:- It is traded on a regulated market with multilateral trading systems and systematic internalizers;- There are trading proposals from at least two contributors on the Bloomberg; the Bid/Ask spread must be less than

3% in case of investment grade bonds and 5% for junk bonds (unless the CBBT of Bloomberg is utilized).Instruments for which an active market has been recognized are valued using the following method:• Shares listed within a regulated market or MTF that is managed by Borsa Italiana: the reference price on the last

working day is taken into account;• Shares listed within regulated markets other than Borsa Italiana S.p.A: the official price provided by the Cedacri

provider is taken into account (TELEKURS price). • Bonds and Government Securities listed within a regulated market or MTF that is managed by Borsa Italiana or

by MTS (Italian government bonds automated market): the official price of the last working day is taken into account;

• Bonds listed on other MTF’s: the official price of the last working day is taken into account;• Bonds which are typically traded in regulated markets or MTF’s: the fair value will be determined by analyzing the

contribution of info providers (typically Bloomberg);• Units of harmonized and non-harmonized CIU’s - index linked insurance policies - speculative funds subject

to Italian law - real estate funds: the fair value is considered as the value of the unit or the policy on the date of closing of the financial statements - or on the most recent previous date -, published on the newspaper “Sole 24 Ore “ (or the last unit value made available by the management company).

• Derivatives (futures and options) listed on Borsa Italiana S.p.A. or other regulated markets: the closing price is calculated on the basis of the criteria provided by the current regulations of the Markets Organized and Managed by Borsa Italiana S.p.A. or other trading markets, respectively.

Where the Risk Management Department is not in a position to use Level 1 of the fair value, the various components of the financial instrument will be analyzed: if the variables are observable on the market, the instrument will be included within Level 2 of the hierarchy of fair value, otherwise estimates will be used and consequently Level 3 of fair value will be used. The input parameters of the pricing models used by the Risk Management Department are considered observable if listed or if they can be derived from listed instruments. If this is not the case, the fair value valuation will always be based on the same models but the variables will be internally estimated by maintaining a highly prudent profile.

• Non-listed shares- The price is determined by the Research Department of the Investment Division using the market multiples method (estimate with EV/Ebitda and with EV/Sales) or with the Discounted Cash Flow method. The Risk Management Department will proceed with the validation of the fair value obtained from the Research Department and the Level 3 classification.

• Bonds- The fair value is determined on the basis of the valuation models made available by the Sophis program which implements pricing, position keeping and risk management activities.

• Derivative financial instruments- The fair value of all derivative financial instruments is determined on the basis of the valuation models made available by the Sophis program which implements pricing, position keeping and risk management activities.

The following table reports the primary valuation models which are made available by the Sophis program and which are used for the valuations made by the Risk Management Department.

• Rate curve: the choice of the rate curve varies on the basis of the expiration date of the financial instrument, in particular:

- For maturities in less than two months, the “monetary market” curve is used;- For maturities between 3 months and 1 year and 2 months the curve for futures on deposits is used;- For maturities greater than one year and two months, the swap curve is used.

• Spot prices: directly supplied by the provider Bloomberg.• Dividends and related “potential payment dates”: dividends which were previously paid or announced are supplied

by the provider Bloomberg, while analyses will be implemented for potential payment dates on the basis of historical distributability data with projections correlated to annual profitability.

• Volatility: in the presence of listed options, the implicit volatility will be inserted for the underlying assets, otherwise volatility will be directly defined by the Sophis program through an analysis of historical prices.

• Spot exchange: directly supplied by the provider Bloomberg.

trading book and banking bookIn relation to the integrated management of risk capital of Banca Intermobiliare, specific relevance is assigned to the presence of market risks to which the Trading book and the Banking book are exposed.

The management and quantification of market risks is based on a daily analysis of the sensitivity and vulnerability of the trading books to adverse market trends in relation to the following risk factors:• Exchange rates• Interest rates• Volatility• Stocks and indices• Credit spreads• Dividend derivatives• Correlation instruments

In particular, the analysis is structured on three levels which differ in terms of purposes and methodology:1. Monitoring of operational limits deliberated by the Board of Directors2. Value at Risk3. Stress testing and scenario analysis

For each type of trading activity, the operating limits for assumption of risk - both quantitative and qualitative - are defined and compliance with these limits is constantly monitored by the Risk Management department. In particular, the limits defined by the Board of Directors are based on:• Value at Risk limits• Portfolio duration, exposure to rate risk, creditworthiness of the issuer, exposure to credit risk and maximum

exposure in relation to the trading bond portfolio• Maximum exposure, delta position, vega position, correlation for the operations on stocks and on financial

derivatives• Concentration limits

value at riskThe calculation of Value at Risk, for managerial purposes, is implemented at the end of each day; the adopted approach is that of historical simulation with a 99% confidence interval and a time period of 10 days.This type of approach was chosen for three primary reasons:

1. no a priori assumptions are made with reference to the distribution of returns;2. the correlation between risk factors is implicitly incorporated within the need for an ad hoc estimate;3. the approach is appropriate for all types of linear and non-linear financial instruments.The historical simulation of VaR consists of a full revaluation methodology of all financial contracts on the basis of historical scenarios of risk variables and assumes that the future distribution of returns of risk factors will be equal to the historical distribution of the latter. Trading book - Value at Risk 99% 10 days(effect on net interest and other banking income)The specific data at 31 December 2010 was equal to €/thousand 2,884. In particular, the distribution of the VaR amongst the various compartments is represented in the following table:

(Values expressed in €/thousand)Overall VaR for trading book 2,884

VaR trading book - stocks/funds 2,500

VaR trading book - bonds 940

VaR trading book - exchanges 500

The average VaR in 2010 was equal to €/thousand 3,158.

Banking book - Value at Risk 99% 10 days(effects on shareholders’ equity)The specific data as of 31 December 2010 was equal to €/thousand 8,741. In particular, the distribution of the VaR amongst the various compartments is represented in the following table:

(Values expressed in €/thousand)Overall VaR for banking book 8,741

VaR banking book - stocks/funds 6,964

VaR banking book - bonds 3,043

The average VaR in 2010 was equal to €/thousand 8,762.

The Var, defined for the purposes of obtaining a reasonable estimate of potential losses under normal market conditions, is not proposed and does not cover the analysis of extreme events.The use of stress testing and scenario analysis give the possibility to study, on the other hand, the impact of extreme conditions on the portfolio as well as the effect of violations of the assumptions of the model, thereby incorporating residual risks and providing information which is complementary to the VaR.The proprietary portfolio is periodically “stressed” in order to assess its “robustness” under extreme and decidedly adverse market conditions.If the portfolio maintains its economic value in a satisfactory manner even after particularly adverse events (price crashes, increase of volatility, change in interest rates, etc..) then it is possible to define it as “robust”.Similarly, scenario analysis allows the subjective definition of a series of potential market conditions (favourable and adverse) in order to analyze the sensitivity of the economic value of the portfolio with reference to each of the scenarios.

1.2.1 INTEREST RATE RISK AND PRICE RISK - REGULATORY TRADING BOOK


a. general information

interest rate riskThe strategies underlying the investment policies of the trading portfolio exposed to interest rate risk are essentially the following:- medium/long-term position aimed at assuming directional risk (interest rate and credit risk) on high-quality

government securities;- medium/long-term position aimed at assuming directional risk (interest rate and credit risk) on corporate

securities issued by companies with ratings of at least BBB- or on bonds issued by Italian banks or by “high quality” countries;

- arbitrage activities with the assumption of relative and non-directional risk through the hedging of interest rate or credit risk on any category of bond securities;

- trading operations on high-quality government securities;- trading operations on corporate securities issued by companies with ratings of less than BBB- and/or low quality

government securities;With reference to the strategies summarized above, listed derivative instruments (futures on European and US government securities) are essentially used for partial hedging against interest rate risk and against potential exchange rate risk for assets that are not in Euro.

price riskThe strategies underlying the investment policies of the trading portfolio, which is exposed to price risk, are essentially the following:- Arbitrage operations on securities subject to tender offers, mergers (M&A), share capital increases implemented

within the domestic market or in foreign markets;- Positions assumed through the acquisition/sale of Italian and foreign stock securities as well as of convertible

bonds and the relative derivative instruments;- Positions involving options on securities and stock indices;- Dividend transactions;- Volatile trading transactions.

Transactions involving financial instruments that are not part of the Euro area are generally covered by the risk of exchange rate fluctuations.

b. management processes and measurement methods for interest rate risk and price risk

interest rate riskAs specified in the introduction to Section 2 related to “Market risks”, the management and quantification of interest rate risk is structured in three levels (operating limits deliberated by the Board of Directors, Value at Risk, Stress testing and scenario analysis) to which the Sensitivity Analysis is added.

Price riskWith reference to the first levels of analysis and monitoring of price risk (operating limits deliberated by the Board of Directors, Value at Risk, and Stress testing), the same considerations made in the introductory paragraph to Section 2, “Market risks” are applicable.

Sensitivity AnalysisAs a supplement to the Var, other risk indicators are calculated, particularly with regard to the strategies set for volatility trading (vega and delta position, volatility stress test) in order to make the identification and monitoring of risks more accurate and complete.

1.2.2 INTEREST RATE AND PRICE RISK - BANKING BOOK


a. general information, management procedures and measurement methods for interest rate risk and price risk

interest rate riskThe interest rate risk related to the banking book primarily derives from the activities implemented by the bank during the process of transforming maturities. In particular, the correlation between deposits and loans of clients as well as the net financial position in credit institutions is monitored. Loans granted to clients (for the purposes of developing trading activities in financial markets) are disbursed at variable rates and primarily have short term or on demand maturities.The adopted management choices are based on the measurement of the interest rate risk for the purposes of minimizing the volatility of the interest margin or minimizing the volatility of the overall economic value when the structure of the interest rates is modified.

price riskThe price risk of the Banking book is represented by equity and hedge fund positions which are held for primarily strategic purposes.

These are primarily positions of a directional nature and can be operationally classified under the finance division (investments in alternative funds, securities within the AFS portfolio); despite not having the pre-requisites required to be considered as part of the trading portfolio, they are managed by the division which implements trading activities and are monitored in terms of Value at risk and strategic shareholdings.

b. fair value hedgesNot applicable.

c. cash flow hedgesThe hedging method used for interest rate risk is the cash flow hedge. The Banca Intermobiliare Group has implemented a single type of hedging activity in order to hedge against exposure to interest rate risk related to loans disbursed with a variable rate.The hedge was implemented by utilizing Interest rate swap (IRS) derivative contracts in order to comply with the requirements of international accounting principles.The Risk Management Department is responsible for verifying the efficacy of the interest rate hedging for the purposes of hedge accounting.

Operating limits deliberated by the Board of DirectorsDifferent operating limits have been deliberated for the two types of implemented activities:- With reference to short-term trading positions, a maximum asset limit in Euros as well as a stop loss is set;- With reference to medium to long-term trading positions, a vega limit was added in addition to the two previous

parameters.

Sensitivity AnalysisWith reference to a position on exchange rates, the quantification and monitoring of risk is implemented by analyzing the overall position in terms of maximum exposure as well as in terms of delta and vega positions (implicit volatility).Stress testing is then periodically implemented in terms of volatility and spot prices of the exchange rates.

As at 31.12.2010 , the Banca Intermobiliare Group had hedging derivatives relative to the banking portfolio which totalled a book value of €/thousand 148 and were composed of Interest rate swaps (IRS) in order to hedge against interest rate risk by means of cash flow hedges.In the previous year, only the negative fair value of an OTC forward, totalling €/thousand 94, was booked in the financial statements; this instrument was created in order to cover exchange rate risk on the Lse equity security which was booked under “Financial Assets available for sale”.

1.3 - banking group - liquidity riSk


a. general information, management processes and measurement methods for liquidity riskLiquidity risk typically appears in the form of default with reference to an entity’s payment obligations, and may assume various forms depending on where this risk is generated. With reference to definitions that are shared at an international level, a distinction must be made between funding liquidity risk and market liquidity risk.Funding liquidity risk refers to the risk that the bank is not capable of effectively meeting its cash outflow obligations - both expected and unexpected, as well as current and future - as well as its collateral requirements without jeopardizing daily operations or the financial situation of the bank itself.Market liquidity risk refers to the risk that the bank is not capable of liquidating a financial asset without generating capital losses due to a low level of liquidity in the market of reference or to disorder in the latter.

The organizational and managerial framework is based on and provides:i) a Liquidity policy: by means of this policy, the net financial position of the bank is defined through specific models

which measure short-term and medium to long-term liquidity (maturity ladder); the use of “scenario techniques” is used by hypothesizing the occurrence of events which may modify certain items within the various brackets that constitute the maturity ladder;

ii) a Contingency policy: defines the objectives, processes and intervention strategies which are applied in case of situations of stress or crisis, thereby clarifying the organization model of reference and the pre-alarm indicators - and their relative trigger points - which identify the manifestation of these events. The Contingency Funding Plan is approved by the Board of Directors; it was prepared by defining the operating states of reference (for normal operations, stress conditions, crisis) and the operating instruments of reference (pre-alarm indicators, monitoring procedures, procedures for declaring states of stress and crisis, roles and responsibilities of affected organizational units).

In particular and with reference to stress testing scenarios, the latter are based on both events of systemic nature (Market Stress Scenarios) and specific nature (Bank Specific Stress Scenarios) in relation to the Group, while taking into account the macroeconomic scenario of reference, commercial policies and potential changes in behaviours of customers.

The Banca Intermobiliare Group has increased, during the course of the year, the total amount of assets assigned to the Collateralized Interbank Market which is becoming increasingly important in terms of volumes and number of adhering institutions. With reference to “overnight” loans, no stress phases were noted; however, the balance of securities assigned to overdraft was increased in order to guarantee a good level of liquidity even in less favourable circumstances.In the last quarter, an issue plan was initiated; this plan was primarily linked to the Eonia rate in order to compensate for the imminent redemption of the syndicated loan totalling circa €/million 245.

QUALITATIVE INORMATION

a. general information, management processes and measurement methods for operational risk

Operational risk is defined as the risk of sustaining losses that derive from the inadequacy or dysfunctionality of procedures, human resources and internal systems or by exogenous events. This typology also includes losses caused by fraud, human error, interruptions in operations, unavailability of systems, contractual default or natural catastrophes. It also includes legal risk. This definition, however, excludes strategic risk (losses sustained as a result of incorrect strategic assessments on the part of management) and image risk (losses of market share, given that the image of the Group is associated with negative events).Three calculation methods for the capital requirement are provided; these are characterized by increasing levels of complexity in the measurement of exposure to risk and by stricter organizational oversight methods in terms of corporate governance mechanisms and processes for identifying, managing and controlling risk: BIA -Basic Indicator Approach, TSA -Traditional Standardised Approach), AMA - Advanced Measurement Approaches. With reference to the measurement of the prudential requirement, the Group uses - for regulatory purposes - the Basic Indicator Approach, BIA, which provides the application of a single regulatory coefficient (15%) to the indicator of company operational volumes which is identified within the earnings margin.For managerial purposes and in order to attain greater awareness in relation to the exposure to operational risk, the parent company is currently implementing a recording and valuation process which aims to adopt TSA over time. With reference to the management and implementation of the ORM process, the specific Operational Risk Management (ORM) department is active within the Risk Management department of the parent company.The ORM process can be primarily divided into three macrophases:Identification: Identification of operational loss events which could arise in relation to assets, businesses and responsibility centers. For this purpose, the Operational Risk Management department uses a specific organizational model which is based on an orderly and homogeneous segmentation of all company processes and within the corresponding centers of responsibility, in accordance to the business line map required by regulations pertaining to capital requirements.Measurement: the analysis, by means of estimates and losses supplied by operational organizational structures, of negative economic effects which the Group may sustain.Management and mitigation: Identification of the areas in which risk exposure is particularly significant and the consequent definition - with the support of any affected operational organizational structures - of mitigation actions which can be implemented with greater priority and which must be presented to senior management for approval. The Business Continuity Plan is active within the Group. Its objective is to prepare organizational oversight systems and technological infrastructures which aim to reduce - within limits considered acceptable - any damages deriving from sensational events, thereby guaranteeing that the re-activation of critical processes and the coordination of activities until the restoration of full operations occurs in accordance with the established time periods and modalities.During the course of 2010, the Group Loss Data Collection activities continued and the 1999 Risk Self Assessment (SRA) was completed.

The Operational Risk Management department implements the analysis of the loss data collection. This activity involves the search and registration of the so-called gross effective losses and provides the census of losses which are equal to or greater than 500 Euro. These losses are classified by event type, risk factor and loss type. The primary sources for operational losses include the following types of events: “execution, delivery and management of processes” and “internal fraud”. As of 2009, a web based tool is fully operational and allows detailed statistical calculations to be implemented on historical data in addition to generating very detailed reports for upper management.

Section 2 - riSkS of inSurance companieS

The Banca Intermobiliare Group retains a 50% shareholding in the insurance company Bim Vita S.p.A. - the other half being held by the Fondiaria-Sai Group - and consolidates its equal shareholding using the equity method.

Section 1 - conSolidated equity

A. QUALITATIVE INFORMATION

Equity management concerns the set of policies and decisions needed to define the size of equity and the optimal combination of various alternative equity instruments in order to ensure that the equity and the ratios of the Banca Intermobiliare Group are consistent with the risk profile adopted and comply with supervisory requirements.The Group is subject to the capital adequacy requirements established by the Basel Committee in accordance to the rules defined by Bank of Italy. Based on these rules, the ratio of equity to weighted risk assets must be at least 8% at the consolidated level. Compliance with these requirements is audited semi-annually by Bank of Italy.Compliance with capital adequacy is achieved using various methods such as pay out policies, the establishment of strategic finance transactions (capital increases, convertible bonds, subordinated bonds, etc.) and the management of lending policy as a function of counterparty risk.Throughout the year and on a quarterly basis, the bank’s and the Group’s compliance with adequacy ratios is monitored.Additional analysis and precautionary checks of the Group’s capital adequacy are performed whenever extraordinary transactions are carried out.

In accordance with the guidelines provided by the Bank of Italy (Circular No. 263 of 27 December 2006 “New Prudential Supervisory Provisions for Banks”), and with reference to the capital adequacy process (ICCAP), the Banca Intermobiliare Group performed an independent assessment of its capital adequacy with the publication of the ICAAP Report for the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2009, which was approved by the Board of Directors on 23 April 2010. Reference should be made to the description in the introduction of Part E of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for 2009.

Section 2 - bank equity and adequacy ratioS

2.1 SCOPE OF APPLICATION OF THE REGULATIONS

Supervisory capital was calculated on the basis of new provisions (Circular 263 of December 2006 updated in December 2010, and Circular 155/91 of February 2008) issued by Bank of Italy following new prudential regulations for banks and banking groups introduced by the New Basel Accord on Capital (Basel 2). The risks contributing to the calculation of ratios (credit and counterparty risk, market risk, operational risk and other requirements) were calculated taking into account the new provisions of Basel 2, and in accordance with the 12th update of Circular 155/91 of February 2008 which references Circular 263 of December 2006.

2.2 BANK SUPERVISORY CAPITAL

a. qualitative information

Supervisory capital is calculated as the sum of positive and, and with certain limitations (based on their capital quality), negative components. The positive components must be fully available to the Group in order to use them in the calculation of capital absorption levels. Supervisory capital is made up of tier I and tier II capital adjusted for certain deductions. In particular, equity interests (equity investments and shares in the trading portfolio) other items issued by such entities (innovative equity instruments, hybrid capital instruments and subordinated assets)and prudential filters, more thoroughly described below, are deducted. Fifty percent of equity interests and other items is deducted from tier I capital, and 50% from tier II capital.The new provisions are aimed at harmonising criteria for determining supervisory capital and ratios with international accounting standards. In particular, they call for the prudential filters indicated by the Basel Committee for governing the criteria that are to be followed by domestic supervisory bodies in order to harmonise regulations with new financial statement criteria.Prudential filters, which are aimed at safeguarding the quality of supervisory capital and reducing its potential

volatility, brought about by the application of new principles, consist of certain adjustments to accounting figures before their use for supervisory purposes. In particular, the new provisions specify that:- for financial assets held for trading, both unrealised gains and losses are entirely relevant;- for financial assets available for sale, unrealised gains and losses must be offset: if the balance is negative, it reduces

tier I capital, and if positive, 50% is contributed to tier II capital. In addition, any unrealised profits and losses on loans classified as assets available for sale are eliminated;

- for equity investments held in insurance companies, a 50% deduction must be made from tier I capital and a 50% deduction from tier II capital for stakes in companies acquired after 20 July 2006, while stakes acquired prior to 20 July 2006 are fully deducted from tier I and tier II capital.

In addition, following Bank of Italy Order of 18 May 2010 concerning new supervisory provisions with reference to capital for supervisory purposes and prudential filters, the Banca Intermobiliare Group took advantage of the option to fully neutralise capital gains and losses solely for securities issued by central governments of EU member countries included in the portfolio of “financial assets available for sale” instead of the asymmetric approach. Based on supervisory instructions, the equity of a credit group must be at least 8% of total weighted assets (total capital ratio) with reference to the credit risk profile assessed on the basis of the borrower’s category, term, country risk and guarantees. Banks are also required to meet capital requirements connected with brokerage activities. These market risks are calculated on the entire trading portfolio broken down by various types of risk: position risk on debt and equity securities, settlement risk and concentration risk. With respect to the entire set of financial statements, it is also necessary to determine exchange risk and position risk on commodities. Internal models may be used to determine the capital requirement for market risks; the Banca Intermobiliare Group uses the standard method.

1. tier i capitalTier 1 capital includes paid in capital, issue premiums, profit reserves (including the reserve for the first application of IAS/IFRS which differs from those recognised among the valuation reserves), and minority interests, but net of treasury shares held in the portfolio, intangible assets and any losses reported in the current and previous years.It also includes any innovative or non-innovative capital instruments to be computed within the limits set by the regulations.The Banca Intermobiliare Group has no innovative or non-innovative capital instruments. Equity interests (equity investments and shares) and other items issued by such entities(innovative capital instruments, hybrid capital instruments and subordinated assets), as well as 50% of investments in insurance companies acquired after 20 July 2006, are subtracted from tier I capital before elements to be deducted.The Banca Intermobiliare Group has registered shares in variable principal investment companies, 50% of which is deducted from tier I capital and 50% from tier II capital.

2. tier ii capitalTier II capital includes valuation reserves taking into account prudential filters, hybrid capital instruments and subordinated liabilities net of other negative elements.Subordinated liabilities may only be computed up to a limit of 50% of tier I capital before elements to be deducted. The tier II capital of the Banca Intermobiliare Group includes a subordinated bond in the form of a convertible bond issued in an amount initially equal to EUR 148,422,555. This amount was subject to supervisory amortisation starting in July 2010 for the amount of EUR 29,684,511, and a repurchase for the amount of EUR 1,408,500.The bond, which was fully included in tier II capital, now totals EUR 118,738,044. Since the repurchase amount was lower than the amount of supervisory amortisation, a further reduction of EUR 1,408,500 was not taken. Equity interests (equity investments and shares) and other items issued by such entities(innovative capital instruments, hybrid capital instruments and subordinated assets), as well as 50% of investments in insurance

companies acquired after 20 July 2006 are subtracted from tier II capital before elements to be deducted.The Banca Intermobiliare Group has registered shares in variable principal investment companies, 50% of which is deducted from tier I capital and from tier II capital.

3. tier iii capitalThe capital elements forming a part of tier III capital may be used only to cover capital requirements on market risk up to a limit of 71.4 percent of such requirements. At the end of 2009, the Banca Intermobiliare Group no longer had instruments that were includable in tier III capital for supervisory purposes since the subordinated bond was fully includable in tier II capital following the 1/5 supervisory amortisation.

2.3 CAPITAL ADEQUACY

a. qualitative informationAll minimum requirements for supervisory purposes were calculated in accordance with Circular 263, which, for such requirements, entered into force in March 2008. These requirements include credit and counterparty risk, now joined under a single item; market risk; the new requirement for “operational risk,” meaning “the risk of incurring losses resulting from the inadequacy or failure of procedures, human resources and internal systems, or from exogenous events”; lastly, other requirements.Credit and counterparty risk was calculated using standardised methods, while operational risk was calculated using the base method.

With regard to credit risk mitigation, the Banca Intermobiliare Group decided that, starting 31 December 2010, it would adopt the integral method rather than the simplified method. This methodology makes it possible to take more directly into account the effect of a reduction in credit risk brought about by a financial guarantee. The reduction in the capital requirement for credit and counterparty risk from the level at 31 December 2009 was due to the selection of this method. As indicated in the table on the breakdown of capital for supervisory purposes and risks, at 31 December 2010 the Group had a ratio of tier I capital to weighted risk assets of 11.29%, and a ratio of supervisory capital, including tier III capital, to weighted risk assets of 16.69%, which is higher than the minimum requirement of 8%. When making assumptions about the future development of the Group’s operations, there is constant monitoring of compliance with minimum mandatory capital requirements needed to support quantitative and qualitative growth in loans and, more generally, risk assets. This is done by connecting this growth with the related income growth and verifying its resulting ability to generate internal cash flow.

Group governance in the performance of transactions with related partiesBanca Intermobiliare and other Group companies carry out transactions that fall under banking and financial intermediation operations with other related parties, and specifically with directors and other individuals with administrative, management and control duties, their close family members and with companies owned or administered by them.To be specific, the procedure specified in Article 136 of the Consolidated Banking Act is applied; it requires the prior unanimous resolution of the Board of Directors, the favourable vote of all members of the Board of Statutory Auditors and the abstention of the party concerned.Since, in all cases, the conditions applied do not differ from those applied to clients or market participants, the Group’s interest in completing the transactions is solely tied to taking advantage of economic opportunities.

The following table indicates existing relationships with related parties as at 31 December 2010. Relationships involving entities consolidated using the integral method are not indicated.

196 • Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements - Part L

This section describes the consolidated results for the period reported by the operating segments into which the Group’s business is divided. Segments were identified in accordance with IFRS 8, which was used starting with the Half-Yearly Consolidated Financial Statements as at 30 June 2009 to replace the previous provisions on segment reporting in IAS 14. Based on this new principle, the Banca Intermobiliare Group has identified the following operating segments: Client, Finance and Corporate Centre.

The Client Segment covers all typical transactions of private banking such as securities brokerage, management and consulting in the area of investment services and distribution of managed savings products (in the form of individual and collective asset management portfolios), and ancillary activities such as lending and corporate advisory services.The Client Segment includes the following companies/businesses:• the operations of the Parent Company, Banca Intermobiliare, limited to the provision of private banking services

to clients, securities and derivatives brokerage, lending to clients and distribution of managed products;• the operations of Bim Suisse and Banca Ipibi, limited to the provision of services to clients;• the operations of the Group’s managed savings company, Symphonia SGR;• the operations of Bim Fiduciaria;• the operations of Bim Insurance Broker.• the operations of Bim Insurance Broker.

The Finance Segment covers:• trading and brokerage operations for OTC instruments and exchange rates carried out on the proprietary

portfolio (with reference to all securities held in portfolios held for trading, HTM, AFS and L&R), the management of the treasury’s interbank operations and the management of rate and liquidity risk carried out by the Parent Company, Banca Intermobiliare;

• the trading and treasury operations of Bim Suisse;• the treasury operations of Symphonia SGR, Bim Fiduciaria, Bim Insurance Broker and Banca Ipibi.

The Corporate Centre consists of the Parent Company’s General Management and the corporate bodies, in addition to activities in support of the Group’s governance bodies (e.g., the Legal, Internal Audit and Risk Management Departments). Starting this year, in accordance with a new assignment of responsibilities in this area, operations involving the management of strategic equity investments (a part of the AFS securities portfolio) are no longer included, and are instead covered by the Finance Segment. The Corporate Centre retains responsibility for the imputed interest associated with the notional treasury unit. Lastly, this segment includes the operations of Bim Immobiliare and the real estate assets of Bim Suisse, Symphonia SGR and Immobiliare D S.r.l.

breakdown by business segment: consolidated operating figuresAt a consolidated level, the contribution of the Group’s various segments to operating results in 2010 differed as noted below. To summarise:• The Client Segment reported 47% growth y/y in interest margin due to the combined impact of growth

in client loans and rates and the new method for calculating the transfer rate for in-house bond issues (which assigns a positive margin to the distribution channel). Net commissions were down slightly from the previous year (-5.5%), in view of the reduction in performance commissions and the concurrent increase in management fees. Overall, the earning margin rose by 6.6% (about EUR 6.5 million). Operating expenses

for the segment were in line with the previous year. In 2010, loan adjustments were about EUR -4.2 million compared to EUR -18 million, leading to earnings before tax of EUR 33 million compared to EUR 11 million in the previous year.

• In 2010, the Finance Segment reported profits in line with 2009. The reduction in net interest was more than offset by growth in net profit on instruments held for trading. The earnings margin rose by 4% y/y, the division’s costs were up by 8% y/y, and operating profit rose by EUR 1 million (+3.7%). Value adjustments on securities in the AFS portfolio were down by EUR -2 million leading to a slight reduction (-4%) in earnings before tax.

• The new method for calculating the transfer rate for in-house bond issues (which assigns a positive margin to the distribution channel) had a negative impact on the Corporate Centre’s notional treasury operations. Because of the variation of the responsibility perimeter for the AFS portfolio, unlike 2009, in 2010 no results were reported in this segment. The growth in operating costs in the staff areas had an impact on the Corporate Centre’s contribution to operating profit and profits before non-recurring items.

BANCA INTERMOBILIARE DI INVESTIMENTI E GESTIONI S.P.A.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF STATUTORY AUDITORS ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2010, IN ACCORDANCE WITH

ARTICLE 153 OF LEGISLATIVE DECREE 58/98

*** ***

To the shareholder meetingof the company “BIM - BANCA INTERMOBILIARE DI INVESTIMENTI E GESTIONI S.P.A.”. The draft financial statements for the year closed on 31 December 2010, which include the Explanatory Notes as well as the Director’s Report on Operations were approved by the Board of Directors and made available by the Board of Statutory Auditors on 14 March 2011.This report was drafted in compliance with the provisions of Legislative Decree no. 58/98 as well as the supervisory provisions of Bank of Italy.As a result of the merger by incorporation of the company Cofito Spa (controlling shareholder of Banca Intermobiliare), stipulated on 18 February 2011 and registered in the Company Registry of Companies of Treviso and Turin on 25 February 2011, Veneto Banca S.c.p.a. acquired legal control over the Issuer, Banca Intermobiliare. Following the aforementioned acquisition, in accordance with Articles 102 and 106, paragraph one, of the Consolidated Law on Finance, the required legal conditions were met for the promotion of a mandatory takeover bid from Veneto Banca S.c.p.a. in relation to the residual outstanding BIM shares. The acquisition of control over BIM from Veneto Banca has resulted in the requirement – on the basis of the assumption that management and coordination activities of the subsidiary have to be carried on by the parent company – to implement the decision-making and control processes within the parent company Veneto Banca with reference to the subsidiary. This will allow BIM to complete the process of updating and improving procedures, process which was, moreover, one of the primary efforts, recognized by the Board of Statutory Auditors, implemented by the entire organization structure of BIM during the course of the recently closed year. This objective must refer to the areas which were targeted for critical intervention by the supervisory authorities in relation to noted deficiencies in the internal organization and controls; it may be achieved by inserting new managerial resources within the Committees that monitor certain operational departments of the bank. Particular focus must continue to be applied to the loans division which is still characterized by a series of critical elements associated with the objective complexity of certain credit positions, particularly the “significant exposures” associated to parties operating in the real estate

T

sector. Given the above, constant attention must always be given to the need for rigorous preventive evaluation processes as well as credit and risk monitoring activities related to the changing value over time of guarantees linked to the total amount of loans, particularly in the real estate sector. Finally, the Board of Statutory Auditors acknowledges the declared intention of the institution to rapidly proceed to appoint a General Manager: this will increase the efficiency of decision-making and control processes.

SUPERVISORY ACTIVITIES1. Supervisory activities were implemented in compliance with statutory

norms (Article 2403 of the Italian Civil Code) and with Articles 149 et sequitur of Legislative Decree no. 58/98, having taken into account the code of ethics of the Board of Statutory Auditors in companies which use venture capital markets - issued by the Italian accounting professional board – while also taking into consideration the recommendations of Consob and Bank of Italy.

2. The Board of Statutory Auditors has participated in the meetings of the Board of Directors (total of 13) as well as the meetings of the Internal Control Committee (totalling 9) and has ensured that all resolutions which were approved and implemented were in compliance with the law and the social statute.

3. During the course of the year 2010, the current Board of Statutory Auditors – appointed on 25.06.2010 – held numerous meetings, of which 10 were minuted, while the Board of Statutory Auditors which held office until the aforementioned date of 25.06.2010 minuted four meetings, which were attended by the managers of the main company departments. Activities focused on continual meetings with Internal Audit managers in order to verify the adequacy of internal control processes; the audits did not reveal deficiencies or irregularities in the processes or methods of application.

4. The managers of organizational areas and internal control departments have constantly and personally made periodical reports on implemented activities for the control body.

5. The Board of Statutory Auditors has monitored the adequacy of the administrative/accounting system as well as the reliability of the latter to correctly report operational facts through the information gathered from the managers of the respective departments as well as through meetings with the managers of the auditing company (independent auditors) and by analysing the results of the latter’s work and the auditing company documents.

6. The Board of Statutory Auditors has obtained all required information

UTOR

Y AU

DITO

RS’ R

EPOR

T

on the operations implemented by the bank and on the most significant operations and has exchanged mutual assessments and information with the company entrusted with company auditing; the independent auditors (auditing company) did not report any irregularities or illegal actions to the Board of Statutory Auditors.

7. The Board of Statutory Auditors also met with the managers of the primary internal divisions of the bank in order to implement its supervisory activities and has received continual and adequate informational reports on a periodic basis.

8. The Board of Statutory Auditors has monitored the development of risk management activities in order to guarantee effective oversight – in terms of measurement, control and management - of the primary risks to which the bank is exposed; it has received updates in relation to the completion of the Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP).

9. The Board of Statutory Auditors has monitored the activities which were implemented and programmed by the compliance department in relation to the identification and evaluation of non-compliance risks and to controls on operations implemented with reference to the organizational structure, processes and procedures, including those of an operational and commercial nature.

10. The Board of Statutory Auditors has periodically monitored the activities implemented by the Compliance Department in order to verify compliance with anti-money laundering regulations. The Board of Statutory Auditors acknowledges the periodical reports drafted by the legal department and reviewed by the Compliance Department in relation to the outcomes of client complaints; no significantly critical positions emerged.

11. The Board of Statutory Auditors has continued to recommend, in its relations with compliance activities, incisive actions to verify the adoption and compliance – both formal and substantive – of the norms pursuant to Legislative Decree no. 231/2007 (Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorism Regulations) as well as those regarding MiFID (Markets in Financial Instruments Directive).

12. During the course of the supervisory activities described above, no significant facts which would require a mention in this report emerged. On the basis of acquired information and implemented controls, the Board of Statutory Auditors has noted that the operations implemented by the bank, in particular those of major economic and financial significance, were implemented in compliance with the law and the social statute and were not explicitly

imprudent, risky or capable of jeopardizing the integrity of company assets.13. The Board of Statutory Auditors has verified that, within the Group, suitable

procedures exist and are fully complied, guaranteeing that intragroup operations, as well as ordinary operations with related parties (IAS 24), have been completed under normal market conditions and in accordance with company interests; these operations are appropriately reported in the Report on Operations and in the Explanatory Notes.

certain operations and the improvement of information flows to control and

administrative bodies, following the implementation of the standards used

in the Veneto Banca group.The Board of Statutory Auditors also noted that processes are underway to align the procedures in use in Bim with those implemented within the Veneto Banca group; these procedures should become fully operational within the current year when the migration to the SEC IT system of the parent company should be completed.

Banca intermobiliare registered a sharp decrease in impaired assets equal to approximately € 148m, mainly related to the return of overdraft positions (€ 61.1m) and to the significant drop in watchlist loans positions (€ 80.8m) due to the end of temporary difficulty of some debtors.over 31.12.2009, non-performing net positions decreased by 5.7% mainly due to the collection of previous interests accrued on the main credit exposure towards the coppola Group companies and towards partecipazioni immobiliari. such exposure, assisted by investment and real estate guarantees, at 31 december 2010, amounted to approximately € 141m gross and around € 116m after valuation reserves. With reference to the watchlist loans net exposures and expired net exposures, during the first quarter the partial repayment of two relevant positions to clients operating in the real estate segment was carried out, as already mentioned in the financial statements at 31.12.2009 and in the subsequent interim financial statements of 2010. Both positions are presently classified as performing. in the first case, the watchlist loans position at 31.12.2009 for € 82m decreased after the client’s payment of € 23m, as partial repayment of capital and of some expired instalments. on this position, the residual exposure on the performing return date was € 59m.in relation to the second case, classified at 31.12.2009 among expired positions for € 59m, it is a position relating

The significant increase in the net financial position is caused by the lower availability of deposits and other securities that occurred during the first quarter of this financial year. operations with credit institutions were determined by very short term requirements for provision/use, typically in current accounts and overnight and short deposits as well as by the requirement caused by financial instrument transactions. loans and other forward debts towards banks were mainly composed of a loan of € 245m taken out through syndicated lending in 2006 with 18 international banks that expired in february 2011 and is regularly repaid. The other payables are made up for € 92m of time deposits and for € 12m of other loans.other types of loans consist of current accounts and on demand forward deposits for € 67m opened within major credit institutions. Banca intermobiliare subscribes to the collateralised interbank market and can participate in ecB auctions.such exposures are subject to continuous monitoring by rate and cash risk management strategies, described in the market information section, “information on risks” of the directors’ consolidated management report and in part e, “market risks” section of the notes to the consolidated financial statements

A.1 - GENERAL

Section 1 - Declaration of compliance with International Accounting Standards

The separate financial statements of Banca Intermobiliare were prepared by applying the International Accounting Standards (IAS) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as approved by the European Commission on the basis of the procedure specified by EC Regulation No. 1606 of 19 July 2002 and as dictated by Italian Legislative Decree 38/05, as amended. In addition, the separate financial statements were prepared in accordance with the first update of 18 November 2009 of Circular No. 262 of 22 December 2005 issued by Bank of Italy which specifies the reporting formats and related methods for completing them, as well as the content of the notes to the financial statements. In addition, reference was made to documents prepared by the Italian Accounting Profession (O.I.C. - Organismo Italiano di Contabilità) and by the Italian Banking Association (ABI - Associazione Bancaria Italiana) in order to provide better guidance for the interpretation and application of the new accounting standards.The document was also prepared in accordance with Consob regulations.

Section 2 - General principles of preparation

The financial statements are made up of the balance sheet, the income statement, the statement of comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity, the cash flow statement and the notes to financial statements and are accompanied by the directors’ report on operations. The financial statements were prepared using euros as the currency of account in accordance with the provisions of Article 5 of Italian Legislative Decree No. 38 of 28 February 2005. Unless otherwise indicated, amounts are expressed in thousands of euros.No exceptions were made to the application of IAS and IFRS. In addition to the amounts related to the reporting period, the financial statements and the notes to the financial statements include corresponding figures as at 31 December 2009 for comparison purposes.The report on operations and the notes to the financial statements provide the information required by International Accounting Standards, laws, Bank of Italy and Consob.

Section 3 - Events after the financial statement reporting datetChange in parent company Through an agreement for the merger by incorporation of Cofito (the controlling shareholder of Banca Intermobiliare) stipulated on 18 February 2011 and recorded in the Company Registers of Treviso and Turin on 25 February 2011, Veneto Banca S.c.p.a. acquired legal control of the Issuer Banca Intermobiliare. Pursuant to Articles 102 and 106, paragraph 1 of the Consolidated Law on Finance (TUF), following this acquisition, the legal prerequisites were met for Veneto Banca S.c.p.a. to launch a mandatory takeover bid for the remaining outstanding BIM shares. The Offeror will pay to each Offer participant a cash amount equal to EUR 4.25 for each share surrendered to participate in the Offer. Veneto Banca intends to maintain the BIM shares listed on the Italian Telematic Stock Exchange and thus it will reinstate outstanding shares if, as a result of the above offer, it should exceed an equity interest of 90% in BIM share capital.

Going concern With reference to the assumption of the company being a going concern, in the report on operating performance and changes in the balance sheet and financial situation, directors did not indicate any situations that would cast a doubt

on the ability of the company and its subsidiaries to continue normal operations. The balance sheet and the financial structure are suitable for ensuring operating continuity in the near future. Based on this reasonable expectation, the financial statements at 31 December 2010 were prepared with the expectation that the company is a going concern. .

Section 4 - Other aspects

Reclassification of equity investment in Immobiliare D S.r.l.Following the inability to meet the requirements dictated by IFRS 5, the comparative value in the financial statements at 31 December 2009 in the equity components of the subsidiary Immobiliare D S.r.l. was reclassified from the item “Non-current assets/liabilities and disposal groups held for sale” to the financial statement item “Equity investments.”The reclassification of these financial statement items had no impact on the income statement or shareholders’ equity. In the preparation of these financial statements, Banca Intermobiliare restated the balance sheet values at 31 December 2009 for the following financial statement items:

FINANCIAL YEAR 2010

A.2 - INFORMATION ON THE MAIN ITEMS

Below is a description of the accounting principles used to prepare the IAS/IFRS separate financial statements at 31 December 2010; these standards did not change from the previous year.The presentation of the accounting principles applied is based on the classification, recording, valuation and removal of the various asset and liability items. Where relevant, a description of the related operating impact is provided for each of the above stages.

Section 1 - Financial assets held for trading

Classification criteriaOnly debt and equity securities and the positive value of derivative contracts held for trading are included in this category.

Recognition criteriaWhen first identified, these financial assets, net of any transaction costs, are recorded in the balance sheet at fair value, usually corresponding to the amount paid to acquire them. They are recorded on the financial statements starting from the settlement date.

Criteria for valuation and recording of operating componentsSubsequently, financial assets held for trading are valued at fair value with an offset for changes posted to the income statement. To determine the fair value of financial instruments listed on an active market, market prices are used. In the absence of an active market, there are internal valuation models that take into account all risk factors related to the financial instruments. In particular, valuations are based on whether or not there are contributing factors from trading platforms, on volumes traded, on spreads applied or on other factors. Alternatively, there are valuation methods that are provided by key information sources and internal valuation methods based on the valuation of listed instruments with similar characteristics, of discounted cash flows or of values taken from recent transactions. Financial instruments for which it is not possible to determine fair value in a reliable manner were maintained at cost. Derivative financial instruments are reported in financial statements under assets if fair value is positive or under liabilities, if fair value is negative.


Section 2 - Financial assets available for sale

Classification criteriaThese are financial assets that cannot be classified as loans, receivables or financial assets held for trading or held until maturity. In particular, Banca Intermobiliare also includes in this item equities not qualified as controlled, linked or jointly controlled equity investments.

Recognition criteria When first identified, these financial assets are recorded at fair value, usually corresponding to the amount paid to acquire them, in addition to any transaction costs that are directly attributable to such assets.

Criteria for valuation and recording of operating componentsSubsequently, the financial instruments classified in this category must be valued at fair value, with a balancing entry in equity reserve, until the financial asset is disposed of or impairment is recognised. At the time of disposal or any impairment, the equity reserve is reversed back to the income statement. If the reasons for impairment no longer apply, it is necessary to record a write-back, the impact of which is recorded in the income statement in the case of debt securities, or directly in the equity in the case of equity securities.The fair value of financial assets available for sale is determined on the basis of market prices, comparable transactions, and on valuation models based on multiples or discounted cash flow. Equity securities for which it is not possible to determine fair value in a reliable manner are maintained at cost.


Section 3 - Financial assets held to maturity

Classification criteria This category includes all investments held other than equity investments, with fixed payments, or payments that can be determined on a fixed maturity date and that the company intends, and is in a position to hold until maturity.

Recognition criteriaFinancial assets are recorded on their settlement date. On the date when first recorded, financial assets held to maturity are reported in the balance sheet at their fair value, which usually corresponds to the amount paid to acquire them.

Valuation criteriaSubsequently, assets held to maturity are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest criterion.

Derecognition criteriaFinancial assets are derecognised from the balance sheet only at maturity, or on rare exceptions prior to their natural maturity, but in accordance with the provisions of IAS 39 in terms of exemption from the “tainting rule.”

Section 4 - Loans and receivables

Classification criteriaThis category includes direct loans to customers or banks that entail fixed or determined payments. These financial assets are not listed in an active market and from the outset are not classified under financial assets available for sale or under assets designated at fair value. This item includes trade payables, repo transactions, securities lending and current accounts at credit institutions.

Recognition criteriaReceivables and loans are initially recorded at fair value, which usually corresponds to the amount disbursed including any directly attributable costs and income, net of disbursements.

Valuation criteriaAfter initial recognition, loans are assessed at their amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. For loans made by Banca Intermobiliare, the absence of costs that are directly allocable to financial statement entries makes the impact of recording such entries using the amortised cost method negligible. The book value of receivables and loans is periodically subjected to impairment tests. Specific valuations are completed for all non-performing assets, as detailed in current Bank of Italy rules that are consistent with IAS regulations, and for all significant individual positions. The adjustment for exposure is equal to the difference between the book value at which the asset was recorded, and the present value of future cash flows discounted by applying the actual interest rate of the exposure. The projected cash flows take into account expected recovery periods, the estimated execution value of collateral and the legal costs to recover the loan.Performing loans and non-performing assets, for which a specific valuation has been carried out that did not identify any impairment, are measured collectively.The calculation model used by Banca Intermobiliare is an approximation of the approach introduced with the provisions of Basel II concerning the monitoring of the lending sector since there are significant similarities in the measurement of the risks inherent in loans under IAS/IFRS and the Basel rules. More specifically, similar loans were grouped by product type, with the parameters PD (probability of default) and LGD (loss given default) associated with each of these. In order to determine collective write-downs for loans, the Group utilised sector-based parameters. Specifically, Bank of Italy’s “decay rates” were used, with appropriate adjustments, where necessary, to take into account specific situations, as PD, while Basel percentages were used for LGD.Write-downs are recorded in the income statement, as are their related write-backs.

Derecognition criteriaLoans are derecognised from the balance sheet if the transfer resulted in the substantial transfer of all loan-related risks and benefits, when contractual rights to receive the related cash flows have expired and in the event of impairment.

Section 5 - Financial assets designated at fair value

Banca Intermobiliare has not required the adoption of the so-called “fair value option,” i.e., it has not taken advantage of the ability to designate at fair value any financial asset other than those for which IAS 39 requires the application of the fair value criterion based on the specific functional use, with the recording of the result of the valuation in the income statement.

Section 6 - Hedging transactions

Risk hedge transactions are carried out to neutralise potential losses on a given element or group of elements attributable to a given risk in the event that the specific risk should actually arise.In 2010, Banca Immobiliare did not complete any transactions requiring hedge accounting.

Section 7 - Equity investments

Classification criteria Subsidiaries are considered to be those companies in which the Parent Company holds more than half of the voting rights, whether directly or indirectly, or in which the Parent Company has the power to appoint the majority of the directors or determine the financial and operating policies of the subsidiary, even if it has less than half of the voting rights. Associates, or companies subject to significant influence, are considered to be those companies in which the Parent Company holds at least 20% of voting rights or in which it has the power to participate in determining financial and management policies of the company owned.

Recognition criteriaThe initial recognition of the asset is on its settlement date. On initial recognition, equity interests are entered at cost including costs or income directly attributable to the transaction.

Valuation criteriaEquity investments were maintained at cost adjusted for any impairment. If there is a loss in value of an equity investment, the recoverable value of the investment is assessed, taking into account the present value of future cash flows that may generate from the investment, including its final exit value. If the recoverable value is lower than the book amount, the difference between the two is recognised in the income statement.If the reasons for a loss of value should no longer exist as a result of an event occurring after recognition of the reduction in value, a write-back is performed and entered in the income statement.

Derecognition criteriaEquity investments are derecognised from the balance sheet when contractual rights to cash flows deriving from the assets expire or when essentially all related risks and benefits are transferred along with a transferred equity investment.

Section 8 - Tangible fixed assets

Classification criteriaTangible fixed assets include land, property, technical equipment, furniture, furnishings and equipment of any kind which is used in the Bank’s business, or to provide services or to be leased to third parties, and which is expected to be used for more than one financial period. This item also includes assets used under finance leases even though legal ownership of such assets remains with the lessor.

Recognition criteria Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, which, in addition to the purchase price, includes any other ancillary charges directly attributable to the purchase and implementation of the asset. Extraordinary maintenance costs leading to an increase in future economic benefits are recorded as an increase in the asset value, whereas other ordinary maintenance costs are recorded in the income statement.

Criteria for valuation and recording of operating componentsTangible assets and related improvement costs are assessed at cost less any depreciation or impairment. Depreciation is calculated on the basis of the useful life of the fixed assets on a straight-line basis. It should also be noted that under the new regulations, leasehold improvements fall under the scope of IAS 16 with reference to tangible assets when such costs are incremental in nature and have “materiality” characteristics, generate

future benefits and can be separated from the asset over which the company exercises control.The useful life of depreciable tangible assets is periodically tested. If there are adjustments to initial estimates, the related depreciation charges are also changed.On each financial statement reporting date, an assessment is performed to determine whether there are indications that the asset has been subject to a permanent loss in value. If it has, it is necessary to determine the asset’s recoverable value, i.e., the greater of the net sales price and usage value. If the assumptions that led to the recording of a permanent loss in value no longer apply, a write-back must be recorded in the income statement.Below are the depreciation rates that were used to prepare these financial statements bearing in mind that depreciation is calculated starting from the date the asset is put in operation.

Type of tangible asset Depreciation rate

Buildings: - Property used for production purposes 2.2%

Furniture: - Furniture 12%- Furnishings 12%

Other: - Electronic office equipment 20%- Specific equipment 25%- Machinery and devices 15%- Armoured counters 20%- Vehicles 25%- Leasehold improvements 12.5%

Derecognition criteriaTangible assets are derecognised on the date of their disposal and when future economic benefits are no longer expected.

Section 9 - Intangible fixed assets

Classification criteriaIntangible fixed assets consist of non-monetary assets that are identifiable, lack physical substance, are held to be used in the company’s operations and generate future economic benefits for the company. Examples of intangible assets are goodwill and software to be used over several years. Goodwill is the positive difference between purchase cost and the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired to reflect any potential surplus value of equity investments acquired.

Criteria for recognition and recording of income components Intangible assets are recognised at cost, adjusted in terms of accessory charges only if it is likely that future economic benefits attributable to the asset will be realised and if the cost of the asset can be reliably determined. Otherwise, the cost of intangible assets is recognised in the income statement in the period in which it occurred. The cost of intangible assets is amortised on a straight line basis throughout its related useful life. If the useful life cannot be defined, no amortisation is carried out, and instead a periodic verification is performed to determine if the book value of assets is adequate. At the end of each financial period, if there is evidence of impairment, the recoverable value of the asset is estimated. The amount of the impairment, which is recorded in the income statement, is equal to the difference between the book value of the asset and the recoverable value.Goodwill may be recorded when the positive difference between the cost paid and the fair value of the net asset

acquired is due to the future income-generating capacity of such asset. Since this is an asset with an indefinite useful life, it is not amortised.On an annual basis (or each time there is evidence of impairment) an impairment test is performed on the adequacy of the goodwill value. Any reduction in value is determined on the basis of the difference between the book value of goodwill and its recovery value, if lower. This recovery value is equal to the greater of the fair value, net of any sales costs, and the related value in use. The resulting adjustments are recorded in the income statement.

Write-off criteriaAn intangible asset is derecognised from the balance sheet at the time of its disposal or when no future economic benefit can be expected.

Section 10 - Non-current assets held for sale

This item includes non-current assets/liabilities and groups of assets/liabilities that may be sold in the near future in their current condition and whose sale is considered highly likely.In particular, such assets/liabilities are measured at the lower of their book value and fair value net of sales costs. As operating elements that have been shut down, these assets, and the related charges and income (net of taxes) are reported in the balance sheet and income statement in separate items.

Section 11 - Current and deferred taxes

Banca Intermobiliare recognises the impact of current taxes by applying tax regulations and tax rates in effect at the time the financial statements are prepared. Deferred taxes are calculated on the basis of tax provisions and rates, which, based on the provisions and rates in effect on the date the financial statements are prepared, will be applicable in future periods in which the temporary differences will be relevant for tax purposes.Income taxes are recorded in the income statement and consist of the balance between current and deferred taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities related to transactions affecting the income statement are recognised as an offset in the income statement. However, deferred tax assets and liabilities related to transactions affecting shareholders’ equity are recognised as an offset in shareholders’ equity with reference to specific reserves. The provision for income tax is determined on the basis of a prudent forecast of the current, the prepaid and the deferred tax burden. In particular, prepaid and deferred taxes are calculated on the basis of temporary differences between the attributed value of an asset or liability according to statutory criteria and the corresponding values assumed for tax purposes.Deferred tax assets are generated by deductible temporary differences or by income components, which, for the applicable period, are not recognised for tax purposes, therefore resulting in higher taxable income, and at the same time generating lower taxes in future periods. Deferred tax assets are only recognised when it is likely that there will be taxable income in the period when such temporary differences will be deductible. Deferred tax liabilities are generated by taxable temporary differences or by income components, which, for the applicable period, are not recognised for tax purposes, therefore resulting in lower taxable income, and at the same time generating higher taxes in future periods. Assets and liabilities recorded for deferred taxes are regularly assessed to take into account any changes in tax regulations and tax rates.

Section 12 - Provisions for risks and charges

Classification criteriaProvisions for risks and charges include allocations made to cover current liabilities resulting from past events for which probable future disbursements of cash were determined. In addition, it must be possible to determine these disbursements using a reliable estimate.

Recognition and valuation criteria The amount recognised is equal to the best estimate of the liability that Banca Intermobiliare will incur, taking into account the future time when such liabilities will generate any significant actual cash disbursement.The amounts allocated by Banca Intermobiliare are related to client claims and disputes for which a resolution is not anticipated during the year. The funds allocated are reviewed on each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the best current estimate. The allocation was discounted using current market rates and recognised in the income statement.

Derecognition criteriaThe funds allocated are written off when the previously estimated liability is eliminated.

Section 13 - Payables and outstanding securities

Classification criteriaThis item includes payables to banks, payables to customers, issued and outstanding securities and financial statement entries incorporating the various forms of interbank and customer deposits. Outstanding securities consisting of bonds issued by the Bank, are reported in the financial statements net of any portion repurchased. Payables to customers also include payables to leasing companies in connection with finance lease transactions.

Recognition and valuation criteriaWhen first recorded in the financial statements, payables and outstanding securities are measured at their fair value, plus any transaction costs, which represents the amount collected. Payables with a short-term maturity are maintained at nominal value. Long-term payables and issued bonds with transaction costs are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Purchases and sales of securities issued by the Bank constitute redemptions and new issues of its own securities. The value of new issues is equal to the new placement price with no impact from the transaction on the income statement. Derivative components embedded in bonds issued by the Bank were separated. For convertible bonds, the derivative was separated and reported under “Equity instruments,” and subsequently measured at cost.For structured bonds with underlying assets other than own shares, embedded derivatives were classified under liabilities held for trading and subsequently designated at their fair value if the prerequisites of IAS 39 were met.

Derecognition criteriaThese liabilities are derecognised from the balance sheet only when they expire or are redeemed.The difference between the book value of the liability and the amount paid as a repurchase is recorded in the income statement. The replacement of own shares on the market after their repurchase is considered a new issue with recognition at the new placement price.

Section 14 - Financial liabilities held for trading

Classification criteriaThis item includes the negative value of trading derivative contracts, the negative value of embedded derivative contracts separated from bonds issued by the Parent Company and liabilities resulting from technical exposures generated from trading activity.

Recognition and valuation criteria Financial liabilities held for trading are measured using the same criteria applied to financial assets held for trading and thus reference should be made to comments made above.

Derecognition criteriaFinancial liabilities are written off only if their transfer resulted in the substantial transfer of all of their associated risks and benefits.

Section 15 - Financial liabilities designated at fair value

See the comments in Section 5 “Financial assets designated at fair value” in this section.

Section 16 - Foreign currency transactions

Recognition criteriaTransactions in foreign currency are recorded, at the time of their initial recognition, in the accounting currency, applying the foreign currency exchange rate valid on the transaction date.

Criteria for valuation and recording of income componentsMonetary elements in foreign currency are converted using the rate at the end of the period.Non-monetary elements, which are measured at historical cost in foreign currency, are converted using the exchange rate in effect on the date of the transaction. Non-monetary elements designated at fair value in a foreign currency are converted using the exchange rates on the date on which fair value was determined.Exchange differences deriving from monetary element settlements or from conversions to rates different from the original rates applied or from conversions of the previous financial statements are recorded in the income statement in the period in which they arise.When profit or loss relating to a non-monetary element is recorded under shareholders’ equity, any exchange difference relating to that element is also recorded under shareholders’ equity. Otherwise, when a profit or loss is recorded in the profit and loss account, any related exchange difference is also recorded in the income statement.

difference between the purchase and sale price is recorded under the components of shareholders’ equity.

Share-based paymentsPayments based on equity instruments issued to employees and other parties that provide services to Group companies are settled with shares of Group companies. These transactions are measured in accordance with IFRS 2 and the interpretations of IFRIC 11 which require the identification of the cost at the time the goods or services are consumed, resulting in an increase in shareholders’ equity in an amount equal to the fair value of the compensation on the allocation date (in the event of equity-settled share-based transactions) or the recording of a liability at the current value on the reporting date (in the event of cash-settled share-based transactions)..

Recognition of costs and revenuesRevenues are recorded in the income statement in the periods in which the related costs are reported. Income from fees and commission and from other services is recorded in the financial statements in the periods in which the services were rendered.Other income is recorded in the financial statements according to the accrual principle.

Employees’ severance fundFollowing the pension reform implemented under Law No. 296 of 27 December 2006, it is essential, for accounting purposes, to distinguish between the amount of the employees’ severance fund accrued up to 31 December 2006 and the amount accrued starting 1 January 2007 (the effective date of the reform). The employees’ severance fund accrued starting 1 January 2007 is treated as a defined contribution plan (the company’s obligation to employees is fulfilled with its payment of contributions to supplemental pension funds). Based on the above, the company:• records the obligation for amounts accrued to 31 December 2006, according to the rules for defined benefit plans,

using actuarial procedures. Actuarial gains and losses continue to be recorded at the end of the period in the income statement (without using the corridor approach);

• records the obligation for amounts accruing from 1 January 2007 and owed to supplemental pension funds on the basis of contributions due each period (in this case, it is not necessary to report actuarial assumptions or discount the obligation since it matures in less than 12 months);

• records the obligation for amounts accruing from 1 January 2007 that remain in the company and are added to the amounts accrued to 31 December 2006.

Valuation reservesValuation reserves are determined as a function of valuation rules indicated for the assets and liabilities concerned, e.g., assets available for sale and stock options. These reserves also include the impact from the first application of IAS.This item includes valuation reserves for financial assets available for sale and for tangible and intangible assets revalued at the time of the first application of IAS/IFRS.

Use of estimates and assumptions in the preparation of financial statementsIn the preparation of financial statements, Banca Intermobiliare, through its management and/or outside contractors, used estimates and assumptions to calculate balance sheet and income statement entries that entailed the processing and interpretation of available information, and thus, assessments that may be more or less subjective in nature.The main analyses that require subjective assessments are the following:• The assessment of the recoverable value of loans, also by means of assessing collateral or other financial

assets (e.g., the measurement of fair value of unlisted financial instruments) and thus the related losses due to impairment;

• The assessment of the sustainability of the value of goodwill and intangible assets;• Quantifying provisions for staff and provisions for risks and charges;• The recoverability of deferred tax assets;• The allocation of acquisition costs within the scope of IFRS 3.

Impairment of financial instrumentsOn each reporting date, the financial assets not classified as “Financial assets held for trading” are subject to impairment tests in order to determine if their book value is fully recoverable.With specific reference to financial assets available for sale, a decrease in fair value below the acquisition cost of the financial instrument is to be considered objective evidence of impairment if the reduction in value is significant or long-lasting. In this situation, any accumulated losses during the period or negative shareholders’ equity reserves must be recorded in the income statement. If in future periods the preconditions for write-backs can be met, the write-backs for equity securities and undertakings for collective investment (UCIs) are recorded under shareholders’ equity reserves, while those related to debt securities are recorded in the income statement. In order to recognise any evidence of impairment, Banca Intermobiliare takes into consideration all qualitative information about the issuer that could lead to loss events, highlighted by IAS 39, §59-60, and quantitative information concerning the decrease in fair value of the financial instrument compared to acquisition cost. With reference to the latter, the Banca Intermobiliare Group has established an internal policy aimed at identifying cases in which a decrease in fair value must be considered significant or long-lasting. On the one hand, the criteria used call for the direct allocation of adjustments to the income statement for losses greater than 60% of the total value, or losses that last for a period of over 48 months. On the other hand, they call for the use of control filters and other qualitative and fundamental analyses, as required for securities which show no signs of impairment, but still reflect a loss in value of over 30% of book value.

Three pricing methodologies were defined and ranked on a hierarchical scale:1) Prices in active markets: official, or operational, prices (in the case of contributors) available in active markets

take priority for the determination of fair value.2) Pricing models with market parameters: in the absence of an active market, the instrument must be valued by

loading pricing models with input data available directly and indirectly on the market (rates, credit spreads, etc.).3) Pricing models with estimated parameters: the final level is based on the determination of fair value using

estimates and assumptions for data not available from the market.

SECTION 14 - NON-CURRENT ASSETS AND DISPOSAL GROUPS HELD FOR SALE AND RELATED LIAbILITIES- ITEM 140 OF ASSETS AND ITEM 90 OF LIAbILITIES

On 29 December 2009, following notice given to the supervisory authorities, the Parent Company Banca Intermobiliare, by means of a public document, acquired 100% of the shares in Immobiliare D S.r.l. as part of a transaction aimed at recovering a credit exposure which was secured by real estate properties held by the acquired equity investment. Starting with the annual financial statements as at 31 December 2009, this equity investment was recorded under assets held for sale as dictated by IFRS 5.At the annual financial closing date of 31 December 2010 - since 12 months had elapsed within which the disposal of the equity investment could have been completed and since, at that time, the prerequisites were no longer met to consider the disposal highly likely, even though all actions aimed at completing such a disposal had been completed - Banca Intermobiliare chose to reclassify the equity investment in Immobiliare D S.r.l. from the item “Non-current assets and disposal groups held for sale” to “Equity investments.”

The “Provision for risks and charges” covers the risks of lawsuits brought against Banca Intermobiliare, and was determined by separately assessing each existing case.It mainly addresses contingent liabilities and risks related to disputes of various sorts related, among other things, to the disloyalty of former advisors or complaints, and any related reimbursements made to customers.The increase during the year was due to recent negative developments in pending disputes, for which the company decided to set aside a conservative provision.

b.4 Significant expoSureS

Following the 6th update of Memorandum 263 “New provisions of prudential supervision for banks” dated 27 December 2010, the regulations pertaining to significant exposures were broadly revised by DIRECTIVE 2009/111/EC which amends directives 2006/48 and 2006/49. The previous EC regulation was characterized by an approach of “minimum harmonization” which allowed member states and national supervisory authorities broad margins for choice in both incorporating and correctly applying harmonized rules.The revision which was recently applied aims to create a high level of consistency between regulations and the supervisory practices at the EU level. This objective is attained by significantly reducing the level of discretion allowed to individual member states.In particular, the criteria for calculating and weighting risk positions are modified as a result of the elimination of numerous pre-existing national areas of discretion. The primary implication refers to the definition of significant exposure, which is defined as exposure totaling 10% or more of the regulatory capital and without the application of the required weighting factors. Previous regulations, on the other hand, identified significant exposures as the risk position - or the weighted exposure according to the required rules - totaling 10% or more of the regulatory capital.As a result, the amount and number of significant exposures as of 31 December 2010 increased significantly with respect to the value of 31 December 2009; however, this exclusively occurred as a result of a different regulatory framework.

2. internal models and other methodologies for sensitivity analysisThe exchange rate risk of the trading book is monitored in terms of Value at risk and scenario analysis. In particular, a sensitivity analysis is implemented; this allows the measurement of the values of positions within proprietary books following a change in exchange rates and volatility of +/- 1%. The effects on the earnings margin and the economic result were exclusively quantified for positions classified as HFT and whose mark to market changes are directly booked to the income statement.

See Part F of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for qualitative information on equity and corresponding management policies.In the case of individual supervisory capital, unlike the corresponding consolidated figure, the entire subordinated bond, which corresponds to the convertible bond issued by Banca Intermobiliare, can be included in tier II capital. Thus, there are no capital elements falling under tier III capital.

2.2 cApITAL AdEQUAcy


All minimum requirements for supervisory purposes were calculated in accordance with Circular 263, which, for such requirements, entered into force in March 2008.These requirements include credit and counterparty risk, now joined under a single item; market risk; the new requirement for “operational risk,” meaning “the risk of incurring losses resulting from the inadequacy or failure of procedures, human resources and internal systems, or from exogenous events”; lastly, other requirements.

350 • Notes to the Financial Statements - Part F

Credit and counterparty risk was calculated using standardised methods, while operational risk was calculated using the base method. With regard to credit risk mitigation, Banca Intermobiliare decided that starting 31 December 2010 it would adopt the integral method rather than the simplified method. This methodology makes it possible to take more directly into account the effect of a reduction in credit risk brought about by a financial guarantee. The reduction in the capital requirement for credit and counterparty risk from the level at 31 December 2009 was due to the selection of this method. Individual capital requirements for credit, counterparty, market and operational risk are reduced by 25% since Banca Intermobiliare is the parent company of a banking group.

As indicated in the table on the breakdown of capital for supervisory purposes and risks, as at 31 December 2010 the Bank had a ratio of tier I capital to weighted risk assets of 19.38%, and a ratio of supervisory capital to weighted risk assets of 26.06%, which are higher than the minimum requirement of 8%..

FINANCIAL YEAR 2010

This section describes the results of Banca Intermobiliare reported by the operating segments into which the bank’s business is divided. Segments were identified in accordance with IFRS 8, which was used starting with the Half-Yearly Consolidated Financial Statements as at 30 June 2009 to replace the previous provisions on segment reporting in IAS 14. In short, the new principle specifies that the information presented must be structured in accordance with the reporting system used by management to analyse operating performance. Based on this new principle, Banca Intermobiliare has identified the following operating segments: Client, Finance and Corporate Centre. The client segment covers all typical transactions of private banking such as securities brokerage, asset management (in the form of individual and collective asset management portfolios) and ancillary activities such as lending and financial advisory services.The Finance segment incorporates all trading operations carried out on the bank’s portfolio, the management of the treasury’s interbank operations and the management of rate and liquidity risk carried out by the Parent Company.The corporate centre consists of the General Management of Banca Intermobiliare and the corporate bodies, in addition to activities that support the operations of governance bodies and not the two specific businesses. This area also retains responsibility for the management of strategic equity investments and for the imputed interest associated with the notional treasury unit.

breakdown by business segment: operating figures for banca intermobiliare

At the Parent Company level, in 2010 the contribution of the bank’s various segments to operating results of the Client Segment differed as noted below. To summarise:• The Client Segment reported 56% growth y/y in interest margin due to the combined impact of growth in client

loans and rates and the new method for calculating the transfer rate for in-house bond issues (which assigns a positive margin to the distribution channel). Net commissions were in line with 2009 as the combined result of a reduction in performance commissions and an increase in management fees. Overall, the earning margin rose by 19% (about EUR 11.5 million). Operating expenses for the segment were in line with the previous year. In 2010, loan adjustments were about EUR 4.2 million compared to EUR 18 million, leading to earnings before tax of EUR 21.9 million compared to EUR -3.8 million in the previous year.

• In 2010, the Finance Segment reported profits in line with 2009. The reduction in net interest was more than offset by growth in net profit on instruments held for trading. The earning margin rose by 3.5% y/y, and the division’s costs were up by 8%.

• The Corporate Centre reported a negative earnings margin due to the new method for calculating the transfer rate for in-house bond issues (which assigns a positive margin to the distribution channel and penalises the notional treasury’s margin at the Corporate Centre) and because of the variation in the responsibility perimeter for the AFS portfolio (in 2010 this was under the exclusive responsibility of the Finance Segment). Operating costs were up by 12%. In 2010 there were small net allocations to the provision for risks and charges: EUR 2.5 million compared to EUR 10 million in the previous year.
