Challenges

Decreased importance Belgian market

Consolidation of exchanges

Integration of equity business

Optimization of synergies Small & Midcaps

Control risk profile

Market requirements on system development

Risk Profile

All activities increasingly client instead of trading oriented

KBC FP Belgium : managing Long Term OTC Derivatives

Convertibles sales and other equity derivatives : low risk profile

KBCSec (Belgium) Equities somewhat higher relative exposure, due to dominant profile in the Belgian market

Risk Profile

Peel Hunt/Patria : very small position trading/limits

“Consolidated” risk profile from equity + Equity Derivatives Business

Role of RIS & Market Committee

Market Risk

Possibility extreme negative MTM results mitigated by Conservative position taking/limits in

equity derivatives; cfr NO trading losses throughout recent weeks/months

Compensation between activities in all but the most extreme scenario’s

Stress scenario testing

Market Risk

Revenue generation most vulnerable in scenario of combination of

absence of volatility

low stock prices

low stable interest rates

Outlook - Plans

Strengthen equity position in France and Germany

Integrate product offering to Small and Mid cap European market (Limitation : liquidity in underlying stock for more sophisticated derivatives offering)

Fully integrate/centralize management of equity business

Outlook - Plans

Develop credit derivatives trading activity prudently

In Synergy with Asset Management : launch Hedge Fund Products on the basis

of existing strengths (e.g. convertible arbitrage)
