4. Statement of compliance
The annual consolidated financial statements (‘financial statements’) of Bank Pekao S.A. Group have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union, and in respect to matters that are not regulated by the above standards, in accordance with the requirements of the Accounting Act dated 29 September 1994 and respective operating regulations, and in accordance with the requirements for issuers of securities admitted or sought to be admitted to trading on an official stock exchange listing market. Details of the Group of accounting policies, including their changes, are presented in Note 5.
These consolidated financial statements were approved for publication by the Bank’s Management Board on 20 February .
4.1 New standards, interpretations and amendments to published standards that have been approved and published by the European Union and are effective on or after 1 January 2023
STANDARD / INTERPRETATION
DESCRIPTION
IMPACT ASSESSMENT
IFRS 17 ‘Insurance contracts’
The new standard requires insurance liabilities to be measured at a current fulfilment value and provides a more uniform measurement and presentation approach for all insurance contracts. These requirements are designed to achieve the goal of a consistent, principle-based accounting for insurance contracts. IFRS 17 supersedes IFRS 4 ‘Insurance Contracts’ and related interpretations while applied.
The Group analysed the products offered, whether they meet the definition of insurance contracts in the light of IFRS 17. The results of the analysis show that the products offered by the Group do not carry significant insurance risk and are not insurance contracts. Thus, the new standard did not have a material impact on the financial statements in the period of their first application.
IAS 1 (amendment) Presentation of financial statement’ and ‘IFRS Practice Statement 2: Disclosure of accounting policies’
The amendments to IAS 1 include:
an entity is required to disclose its material accounting policy information instead of its significant accounting policies,

4.4. Interest rate benchmark reform
A fundamental reform of the main interest rate benchmarks (the ‘IBOR reform’) is under way. Regulation (EU) 2016/1011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 8 June 2016 on indexes used as benchmarks in financial instruments and financial contracts or to measure the performance of investment funds and amending Directives 2008/48 / EC and 2014/17 / EU and Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 (hereinafter the ‘BMR Regulation’) sets out the operating rules and responsibilities of benchmark administrators and of the entities using these benchmarks. The new rules are to make the indicators more credible, transparent and reliable. As a result of the IBOR reform, individual indicators were adjusted to the new rules (e.g. WIBOR, EURIBOR) or liquidated (e.g. LIBOR) and replaced with alternative indicators. The greatest impact of the IBOR reform on the Group is observed in the field of financial instruments, in particular loans.
The Group monitors the progress of the transition to the new benchmarks by reviewing the total volumes of contracts where the current benchmark is subject to IBOR reform and an alternative benchmark has not yet been introduced (hereinafter ‘non- reformed contract’), even if the contract contains a fallback clause. At the same time, the Group continues the process of annexing contracts concluded before the entry into force of the BMR Regulation by introducing fallback clauses.

In July 2022, at the request of financial market participants, the Office of the Polish Financial Supervision Authority established the National Working Group for Benchmark Reform (‘NWG’). The aim of the NWG is to prepare the process of effective implementation of the new reference index on the Polish financial market and to replace it with the currently used reference index of the WIBOR interest rate in such a way as to ensure the safety of the financial system.
In September 2022, the Steering Committee of the National Working Group (‘SC NWG’) selected the WIRON index as an alternative to WIBOR. WIRON is the Warsaw Deposit Market Index - a transactional index developed on the basis of deposit transactions concluded by data providers with financial institutions and large enterprises. WIRON has been published by GPW Benchmark since the beginning of August 2022.
Ultimately, WIRON is to become a key interest rate reference indicator within the meaning of the BMR Regulation, which will be used in financial contracts, financial instruments and by investment funds.
In the course of the work of the NWG, the tasks required to be performed by market participants were identified, prioritized and time-consuming were estimated in order to correctly and safely replace the previously used WIBOR reference indicators with the new indicator.
In October 2023, the SC NWG Committee decided to change the maximum deadlines for the implementation of the Road Map, which assumes a bottom-up shift of the financial sector away from the use of WIBOR in favor of newly concluded contracts and financial instruments using a fixed interest rate or new RFR-type reference indicators. SC NWG indicated the final moment of conversion at the end of 2027
LIBOR GBP
As previously announced, on 31 March 2023, 1- and 6-month GBP LIBOR rates were published for the last time using the synthetic method. The publication of the 3-month synthetic LIBOR GBP rate will end at the end of March 2024. The Group is actively pursuing active transformations to remove the reference to GBP LIBOR in loan agreements.
LIBOR USD
In April 2023, the FCA decided to oblige ICE Benchmark Administration Limited (IBA), the administrator of LIBOR benchmarks, to continue to publish USD LIBOR rates for 1, 3 and 6 months using a non-representative ‘synthetic’ method. The publication of synthetic USD LIBOR rates will end on 30 September 2024. The Group's portfolio includes loan agreements based on USD LIBOR with a maturity exceeding September 2024. In the field of loan agreements, the Group is considering proposing to clients an annex removing the reference to USD LIBOR.

Impact of the IBOR reform on hedge accounting
As part of the established hedging relationships, the Group identifies the following interest rate benchmarks: WIBOR, EURIBOR. As of the reporting date, these benchmarks rates are quoted and available each day and resulting cash flows are exchanged with its counterparties as usual.
In the case of EURIBOR the Group assessed that, there is currently no uncertainty about the timing or amounts of cash flows arising from the IBOR reform. The indicator has been adapted to the requirements of the European Union Benchmark Regulation (BMR Regulation) and are developed by Administrators with the approval of supervisory authorities. The Group not anticipate changing the hedged risk to a different benchmarks.
In the case of WIBOR, in the Group's opinion, there is uncertainty as to the dates and amounts of cash flows for the new index. Such uncertainty may affect the assessment of the effectiveness of the relationship and the high probability of the hedged item. For the purposes of these assessments, the Group assumes that the interest rate benchmark on which the cash flows from the hedged item and/or hedging instrument are based will not change as a result of the WIBOR reform.
The list of hedging relationships and the nominal amounts of hedging instruments designated thereto, which may be affected by the cessation of the LIBOR interest rate benchmarks is presented in Note 22.
Regarding the hedging instruments, the Group joined ISDA Fallbacks Protocol and actively cooperates with counterparties in order to implement rules of conduct in line with the ISDA methodology.
5. Significant accounting policies
5.1. Basis of preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements
General information
The financial statements have been prepared in Polish zloty, and all data in the financial statements are presented in PLN million (PLN ‘000), unless indicated otherwise .
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis on the assumption that the Group will continue its business operations substantially unchanged in scope for a period of at least one year from the balance sheet date.
The accounting principles as described below have been consistently applied for all the reporting periods. The principles have been applied consistently by all the Group entities.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for significant items of financial assets and liabilities, for which the measurement method is presented in Note 5.4.
The consolidated financial statements include the requirements of all the International Financial Reporting Standards and International Accounting Standards approved by the European Union and related interpretations. Changes in published standards and interpretations, which became effective on or after 1 January 2023, had no material impact on the Group’s financial statements.
The financial statements does not take into consideration interpretations and amendments to Standards, pending approval by the European Union or approved by the European Union but came into force or shall come into force after the balance sheet date (Note 4.2 and Note 4.3).

Comparability of financial data
In the consolidated financial statements of Bank Pekao S.A. Group for the year ended on 31 December 2023, the Group made the following changes to the accounting principles:
1) change in the method of presenting cash in the statement of financial position
Loans and advances to banks with a maturity of up to 3 months, previously presented under the item ‘Loans and advances to banks’, are now presented under the item ‘Cash and cash equivalents’ (previously named ‘Cash and due from Central Bank’).
Those changes result from adapting the presentation to the position of the IFRS Interpretation Committee and the requirements of IAS 7 "Statement of Cash Flows".
The above-mentioned changes in accounting principles made it necessary to restate the comparative data, but they did not affect the balance sheet total.

2) change in the method of presentation of interest income and expenses on hedging derivatives and costs related to cash turnover in the income statement
The Group recognized income and expenses from interest on hedging derivatives together with interest on hedged items.
The introduced change results from adapting the presentation to the provisions of IFRS 9 ‘Financial Instruments’.
Moreover, the Group changed the method of presenting costs related to cash turnover. These costs are currently presented in the item ‘Fee and commission expense’. Before the change, they were presented in the item ‘General administrative expenses and depreciation’.
The introduced change results from adaptation to the observed market practice in this respect and, in the Group's opinion, better reflects the nature of these transactions by recognizing both the income and the cost related to cash turnover in net fee and commission income.
The changes in the accounting principles indicated above made it necessary to restate the comparative data, but they did not affect the level of the presented financial result.
The impact of changes on the comparative data of the consolidated income statement is presented in the table below.

Consolidation principles
The consolidated financial statements of Bank Pekao S.A. Group include the financial data of Bank Pekao S.A. and its subsidiaries as at 31 December 2023. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared at the same reporting date as those of the parent entity, using consistent accounting policies within the Group in all important aspects.
All intra-group balances and transactions, including unrealized gains, have been eliminated. Unrealized losses are also eliminated, unless there is an objective evidence of impairment, which should be recognized in the consolidated financial statements.
Investments in subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group has power over an entity, is exposed to or has rights to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect these returns through its power over the entity. The subsidiaries are consolidated from the date of obtaining control by the Group until the date when the control ceases.
The Group applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Group. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are measured at their fair
19
Bank Pekao S.A.
Consolidated Financial Statements of Bank Pekao S.A. Group for the year ended on 31 December 2023 (in PLN million )
values at the acquisition date. The Group measures any non-controlling interests in the acquire at fair value or at the present ownership instruments’ proportionate share in the recognized amounts of the acquire's identifiable net assets.
Acquisition-related costs are expenses as incurred ( in the income statement under the item General administrative expenses and depreciation’ .
If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquirer remeasures its previously held equity interests in the acquiree at fair value at the acquisition date (date of obtaining control) and recognizes the resulting gain or loss in the income statement. The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the total of consideration transferred, non-controlling interest recognized and previously held interest measured is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired in the case of a bargain purchase, the difference is recognized directly in the income statement.
The above policy does not apply to the business combinations under common control.
The changes in a parent entity's ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in the parent entity losing control of the subsidiary are accounted for as equity transactions (i.e. transactions with owners of parent entity). The Group recognizes directly in equity any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received, and attributes it to the owners of the parent entity.
When the Group ceases to have control over the subsidiary, any retained interest in that subsidiary is remeasured to its fair value at the date when control is lost, with the change in carrying amount recognized in the income statement.
Recognition of business combinations under common control at book value
Business combinations under common control are excluded from the scope of IFRS. As a consequence, following the recommendation included in IAS 8 ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’, in the absence of any specific guidance within IFRS, Bank Pekao S.A. has adopted the accounting policy consistently applied in all business combinations under common and recognizes those transactions using book value.
The acquirer recognizes the assets and liabilities of the acquired entity at their current book value adjusted exclusively for the purpose of aligning the accounting principles. Neither goodwill, nor badwill is recognized.
Any difference between the book value of the net assets acquired and the fair value of the consideration paid is recognized in the Group’s equity. In applying this book value method, the comparative periods are not restated.
If the transaction results in the acquisition of non-controlling interests, the acquisition of any non-controlling interest is accounted for separately.
There is no guidance in IFRS how to determine the percentage of non-controlling interests acquired from the perspective of a subsidiary. Accordingly Bank Pekao S.A. uses the same principles as the ultimate parent for estimating the value of non- controlling interests acquired.
Investments in associates
An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence, and that is neither a subsidiary nor a joint venture. The Group usually holds from 20% to 50% of the voting rights in an associate. The equity method is calculated using the financial statements of the associates. The balance sheet dates of the Group and its associates are the same.
On acquisition of the investment, any difference between the cost of the investment and the Group's share in the net fair value of the investee's identifiable assets and liabilities is accounted for as follows:
goodwill relating to an associate is included in the carrying amount of the investment,
any excess of the Group's share in the net fair value of the investee's identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of the investment is included as income in the determination of the Group's share in the associate's profit or loss in the period in which the investment is acquired.
The Group recognizes the investments in associates applying the equity method. The investment in associates is initially recognized at cost and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognize the Group’s statement of financial position share in net assets of the associate after the date of acquisition, net of any impairment allowances.
The Group’s share of post-acquisition profit or loss is recognized in the income statement, and its share of post-acquisition movements in other comprehensive income is recognized in other comprehensive income with a corresponding adjustment to the carrying amount of the investment. Distributions received from an associate reduce the carrying amount of the investment.
If the Group’s share in the losses of an associate equals or exceeds the Group’s share in the associate, the Group ceases to recognize further losses, unless it assumed obligations or made a payment on behalf of the associate.
Unrealized profits or losses from transactions between the Group and associates are eliminated pro rata to the Group’s share in the associates.

5.3. Foreign currencies
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are calculated into the functional currency using the spot exchange rate from the date of the transaction. Gains and losses from foreign currency translation differences resulting from settlements of such transactions and from the statement of financial position valuation of monetary assets and liabilities expressed in foreign currencies are recognized in the income statement.
Foreign currency translation differences arising from non-monetary items, such as equity instruments classified as financial assets measured at fair value through the profit or loss are recognized together with the changes in the fair value of that item in the income statement.
Foreign currency translation differences arising from non-monetary items such as equity instruments classified as financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are recognized in the revaluation reserves.
5.4. Valuation of financial assets and liabilities
Financial assets
At the moment of the initial recognition the financial assets are classified into the following categories at the :
financial assets measured at amortised cost,
financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income,
financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss.
The above mentioned classification is based on the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the characteristics regarding the contractual cash flows (i.e. whether the contractual payments are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding ( i.e.‘criterion SPPI’).
The financial assets could be classified depending on the Group’s business model to the following categories:
a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows,
a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets,
other business model than business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets.

the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding (SPPI criteria are met).
Upon initial recognition, these assets are measured at fair value increased by transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of a financial asset.
After initial recognition, these assets are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate.
The calculation of the effective interest rate includes all commissions paid and received by the parties, transaction costs and other bonuses and discounts constituting an intergrated part of the effective interest rate.
Interest accrued using the effective interest rate is recognized in net interest income.
Since the impairment recognition, the interest recognized in the income statement is calculated based on the net carrying amount, whereas the interest recognized in the statement of financial position is accrued on the gross carrying amount.
The impairment allowances are estimated for the part of accrued interest exposure, which the Bank consider as difficult to recover.
Allowances for expected credit losses reduce the gross carrying amount of assets, on the other hand they are recognized in the income statement under ‘Net allowances for expected credit losses’.
FINANCIAL ASSETS CLASSIFICATION
SIGNIFICANT ITEMS INCLUDED
PRESENTATION AND MEASUREMENT
Measured at fair value through other comprehensive income
To this category, the Bank classifies financial assets included in the following items of the Statement of financial position:
Loans and advances to customers ’,
‘Securities’,
‘Assets pledged as security for liabilities’.
Financial assets (excluding equity instruments) are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income when they simultaneously meet the following two conditions and have not been designated for measurement at fair value through profit or loss:
the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and
the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding (SPPI criteria are met).
Interest accrued using the effective interest rate is recognized in net interest income.
The effects of changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income until the asset is excluded from the statement of financial position, when accumulated profit or loss is recognized in the income statement under ‘Result on derecognition of financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value through profit or loss’.
An allowance for expected credit losses from financial assets that are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income is recognized in other comprehensive income and does not reduce the carrying amount of the financial asset in the statement of financial position. On the other hand, an expected credit risk allowance is recognized in the income statement under ‘Net allowances for expected credit losses’.
Measured at fair value through profit or loss
To this category, the Bank classifies financial assets included in the following items of the Statement of financial position:
‘Derivative financial instruments (held for trading)’,
‘Loans and advances to customers’ ,
‘Hedging instruments’,
‘Securities’,
‘Assets pledged as security for liabilities’.
Loans and advances to customers recognized in a model other than the model held to obtain contractual cash flows and the model held to obtain contractual cash flows and for sale, or those that do not meet the SPPI criterion.
At initial recognition, the Bank may irrevocably designate selected financial assets that meet the amortised cost measurement criteria or at fair value through other comprehensive income for measurement at fair value through profit or loss if it eliminates or significantly reduces the accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise from measuring assets at different methods.
Changes in the fair value of assets, which occur during the period from transaction date to transaction settlement date, shall be recognized similarly as in the case of the asset held.
Derivative instruments are recognized on transaction dates.

The business model assessment
The assessment of the business model is made at the initial recognition of the asset. The business model criteria refers to the way the Group managing financial assets in order to generate cash flows.
The Group evaluates the purpose of the business model, to which the particular financial assets are classified on the level of particular portfolios of the assets performing the analysis on those portfolio level is a reliable reflection business activities regarding these models and also reflects to information analysis of those activities provided to the Group’s management.
The assessment of the business model is based on the analysis of the following information regarding the portfolio of the financial assets:
applied policies and business aims for the particular portfolio and its practical implementation. In particular, the management's strategy regarding the acquisition of revenues from contractual interest payments, maintaining a specific interest rate profile of the portfolio, managing the liquidity gap and obtaining cash flows as a result of the sale of financial assets is assessed,
the manner in which the profitability of the portfolio is assessed and reported to the Bank's Management Board,
types of risk that affect the profitability and effectiveness of a given business model (and financial assets held under this business model) and the manner of managing the identified types of risk,
the way in which the managers of business operations are remunerated under a given business model - eg whether the remuneration depends on changes in the fair value of financial assets or the value of contractual cash flows obtained,
frequency, value and moment of sale of financial assets made in prior reporting periods, the reasons for these sales and expectations regarding future sales activity. However, information on sales activity is analyzed taking into account the overall assessment of the Group's implementation of the adopted method of managing financial assets and generating cash flows.
Before making a decision regarding allocating a portfolio of financial assets to a business model which purpose is to obtain contractual cash flows, the Group reviews and evaluates significant and objective quantitative data influencing the allocation of asset portfolios to the relevant business model, in particular:
the value of sales of financial assets made within the particular portfolios,
the frequency of sales of financial assets as part of particular portfolios,
expectation analysis regarding the value of planned sales of financial assets and their frequency of the particular portfolios, this analysis is carried out on the basis of probable scenarios of the Group's business activities in the future.
The portfolios of financial assets from which sales are made that do not result from an increase in credit risk meet the assumptions of the business model, which purpose is to obtain contractual cash flows, provided that these sales:
are at low volume (even with a relatively high frequency of sales) or
are made rarely - as a result of one-off events, which the probability to occur again in the future, according to the Group’s professional judgment is rare (even with a relatively high volume) or
they occur close to the maturity date of the financial assets being sold, and the revenue obtained from such sales is similar to those which could be obtained from remaining contractual cash flows as if the financial asset was held in the Group's portfolio to the original maturity date.
The following sales are excluded from the analysis of sales value:
the sales resulting from an increase in the credit risk of financial assets, regardless of their frequency and volume,
23
Bank Pekao S.A.
Consolidated Financial Statements of Bank Pekao S.A. Group for the year ended on 31 December 2023 (in PLN million )
the sales resulting from one-off events, which the probability to occur again in the future, according to the Group’s professional judgment is rare,
the sales made close to maturity.
A held to obtain contractual cash flows or sale business model includes a portfolio of financial assets whose purpose is, in particular, managing current liquidity levels, maintaining the assumed profitability profile and/or adjust the duration of the asset and financial liabilities, and a level of sales are higher than for those financial assets classified in a model which purpose is to obtain contractual cash flows.
The business model comprising financial assets held for sale and other includes assets that do not meet the criteria to be classified into the business model, which purpose is to obtain contractual cash flows the business model which purpose is to obtain contractual cash flows or sales and also acquiring cash flows from interest and capital is not the main business target.
Assessment, whether the contractual payments are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding (SPPI criteria)
For the purposes of assessing cash flow characteristics, ‘principal’ is defined as the fair value of a financial asset at the time of initial recognition. ‘Interest’ is defined as the time value of money and the credit risk related to the unpaid part of principal and also other risks and costs associated with a standard loan agreement / a security (e.g. liquidity risk or administrative costs) and margin.
When assessing whether the contractual cash flows constitute solely payments of principal and interest, the Group analyzes contractual cash flows. This analysis includes an assessment whether the contractual terms include any provisions that the contractual payments could be changed or the amount of the contractual payments could be changed in a way that from an economic point of view they will not only represent repayments of principal and interest on the outstanding principal. When making this assessment, the Group takes into account the occurrence of, among others:
conditional events that may change the amount or timing of the payment,
financial leverage (for example, interest terms include a multiplier greater than 1),
terms regarding the extension of the contract or prepayment option,
terms that the Group’s cash flow claim is limited to a specified assets (eg non-recourse assets),
terms that modify the time value of money e.g. mismatch of the frequency of the revaluation of the reference interest rate to its tenor.
The SPPI test is conducted for each financial asset classified into the business model, which purpose is to obtain contractual cash flows or a business model which purpose is to obtain contractual cash flows or sale, as at the initial recognition date or as at the latest significant annex date changing the terms of contractual cash flows.
The Group performs an SPPI test at the level of homogeneous groups of standard products or at the level of a single contract for non-standard products or at the level of ISIN code for debt securities.
In situation when the time value of money is modified for a particular financial asset, the Group is required to make an additional assessment (i.e. Benchmark Test) to determine whether the contractual cash flows are still solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding by determining how different the contractual (undiscounted) cash flows could be from the (undiscounted) cash flows that would arise if the time value of money element was not be modified (the benchmark cash flows). Benchmark Testing is not permitted for situation that some terms modify contractual cash flows, such as the built-in leverage element.
Purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets (POCI)
The Group distinguishes the category of purchased or originated credit-impaired assets. POCI are assets that are credit- impaired on initial recognition. Financial assets that were classified as POCI at initial recognition should be treated as POCI in all subsequent periods until they are derecognition.
POCI assets may arise through:
by purchasing a contract that meets the definition of POCI (e.g. as a result of a merger with another entity or purchase of a portfolio of assets),
by concluding a contract that is POCI at the time of original granting (e.g. granting a loan to a customer in a bad financial condition),
by modifying the contract (e.g. under restructuring) qualifying this contract to be derecognised, resulting in a recognition of a new contract meeting the definition of POCI. Conditions for qualifying a contract to be derecognised are described below.
24
Bank Pekao S.A.
Consolidated Financial Statements of Bank Pekao S.A. Group for the year ended on 31 December 2023 (in PLN million )
At initial recognition, POCI assets are recognized in the balance sheet at their fair value, in particular they do not have recognized impairment allowance.
POCI assets do not constitute a separate accounting category of financial assets. They are classified into accounting categories in accordance with the general principles for classification of financial assets. The categories in which POCI assets may exist are a category of financial assets measured at amortised cost and financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.
Investments in equity instruments
For investments in equity instruments not held for trading, the Group may irrevocably choose to present changes in their fair value in other comprehensive income. The Group makes a decision in this respect based on an individual analysis of each investment. In sucha a case the amounts presented in other comprehensive income are never subsequently transferred to profit or loss. In case of sale of an equity investment elected to be measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, profits/losses from fair value measurement are transferred to the item ‘Other reserve capital’.
Equity investments not designated for measurement at fair value through other comprehensive income at the initial recognition are measured at fair value through profit or loss. Changes in the fair value of such investments, as well as the result on sales, are recognized in the income statement under ‘Result on financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss and foreign exchange result’.
Dividends from equity instruments, both measured at fair value through profit or loss and designated for valuation through other comprehensive income, are recognized in the income statement when the Group's right to receive payment is established.
Reclassification of financial asset
Financial assets are not reclassified in the reporting periods following the initial recognition, except for the reporting period following the change of the business model for managing financial assets by the Group.
The reclassification of financial assets is applied prospectively from the reclassification date - without restatement of previously recognized gains or losses (including impairment gains or losses) or interest.
The following are not changes in business model:
a change in intention related to particular financial assets (even in circumstances of significant changes in market conditions),
the temporary disappearance of a particular market for financial assets,
a transfer of financial assets between parts of the entity with different business models.
Modifications of financial assets
If the terms of the financial asset agreement change, the Group assesses whether the cash flows generated by the modified asset differ significantly from those generated by the asset before modifying the terms of its agreement. If a significant difference is identified, ( defined by the quantitative criteria presented below) , the original financial asset is derecognised, and the modified financial asset is recognized in the books at its fair value.
Income or expense arising as at the date of determining the effects of the substantial modification is recognized in the profit and loss in the item ‘Profit (loss) on derecognition of financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value through profit or loss’.
If the cash flows generated by the modified financial asset are are not materially different from the original cash flows, the modification does not result in derecognition of the financial asset. In this case, the Group recalculates the gross carrying amount of the financial asset, and recognizes the result resulting from a non-substantial modification in correspondence with interest income . Quantitative information about financial assets that were subject to modification that didn’t result in derecognition was presented in Note 46.2.
The assessment whether a given modification of financial assets is significant or non- substantial modification depends on the fulfillment of qualitative and quantitative criteria.
The Group has adopted the following quality criteria to determine substantial modifications:
currency conversion, unless it results from existing contractual provisions or requirements of applicable legal regulations,
change (replacement) of the debtor, excluding the addition/departure of the joint debtor or taking over the loan in inheritance,
consolidation of several exposures into one under an annex or settlement/restructuring agreement,
The occurrence of at least one of these criteria results in a substantial modification.
25
Bank Pekao S.A.
Consolidated Financial Statements of Bank Pekao S.A. Group for the year ended on 31 December 2023 (in PLN million )
The Group has adopted the following quantitative criteria to determine substantial modifications:
extension of the loan term by at least one year and at least a doubling of the residual maturity to the original maturity (meeting both conditions jointly), or
increasing the current loan amount/limit by at least 10%.
If the terms of a financial asset agreement are modified, and the modification does not result in derecognition of the asset from the balance sheet, the determination, whether the credit risk of a given asset significantly increases, is made by comparing:
lifetime PD on the reporting date, based on modified conditions, with
lifetime PD estimated on the basis of data valid at the date of initial recognition and initial contractual terms.
In the case of modification of financial assets, the Group analyzes whether the modification has improved or restored the Group's ability to collect interest and principal. As part of this process, the Group assesses the borrower's ability to pay in relation to modified terms of agreement.
De-recognition of financial instruments from the statement of financial position
Financial assets are derecognized when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial assets expire or when the Group transfers the contractual rights to receive the cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all risk and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred.
The Group derecognizes a credit or a loan receivable, or its part, when it is sold. Additionally, the Group writes-off a receivable against the corresponding impairment allowances (completely or partially) when the debt redemption process is completed and when no further cash flows from the given receivable are expected (i.e. the created write-down covers almost the entire gross value of the loan/advance).
The value of contractual cash flows required under contracts of financial assets, which were written-off in 2023 and are still subject to enforcement proceedings as at 31 December 2023, is PLN 1 388 thousand (as at 31 December 2022 - PLN 674 thousand).
Accumulated profits and losses that have been recognized in other comprehensive income from equity instruments designated to be measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are not recognized in the profit and loss account when these financial instruments are removed from the balance sheet.
The Group derecognizes a financial liability, or its part, when the liability expires. The liability expires when the obligation stated in the agreement is settled, redeemed or the period for its collection expires.
Repo and reverse-repo agreements
Repo and reverse-repo transactions, as well as sell-buy back and buy-sell back transactions are classified as sales or purchase transactions of securities with the obligation of resale and repurchase at an agreed date and price.
Sales transactions of securities with the repurchase obligation granted (repo and sell-buy back) are recognized as at transaction date in amounts due to other banks or amounts due to customers from deposits depending upon the counterparty to the transaction. Securities purchased in reverse-repo and buy-sell back transactions are recognized as loans and receivables from banks or as loans and receivables from customers, depending upon the counterparty to the transaction.
The difference between the sale and repurchase price is recognized as interest income or expense, and amortised over the contractual life of the contract using the effective interest rate method.

5.5. Significant estimates and assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the Management Board of the Bank to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses.
Estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis by the Group and rely on historic data and other factors including expectation of the future events which seems justified in given circumstances.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are subject to a regular review. Revisions to accounting estimates are recongised prospectively starting from the period in which the estimates are revised.
Information on the areas of significant estimates in these financial statements is presented below.
5.5.1. Impairment
Impairment of financial instruments to customers, expected credit losses
With regard to all financial assets that are measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income and off-balance sheet liabilities, i.e. financial guarantees or loan commitments, the Group creates the allowance according to IFRS 9 based on the expected credit losses and taking into account forecasts and expected future economic conditions in the context of credit risk.
The process of estimating expected credit losses requires the use of significant estimates, in particular in the area of:
1) assumptions regarding macroeconomic forecasts and possible scenarios how these forecasts will develop in the future,
2) possible expert adjustments in relations to industries where the Group identifies an increased risk, and the models used do not fully reflect the risks of these industries,
3) rules (thresholds) for identifying a significant increase in credit risk.
More information on the principles applied by the Group for determining expected credit losses and the significant assumptions applied in this area are presented in the Note 46.2.
5.5.2 Impairment of non-current assets (including goodwill)
At each balance sheet date the Group reviews its non-current assets for indications of impairment. The Group performs an impairment test of goodwill on a yearly basis or more often if impairment triggers occur.
Where such indications exist, the Group makes an estimation of the recoverable value of a given assets or in the case of goodwill - all cash-generating units to which the goodwill relates. If the carrying amount of a given asset is in excess of its recoverable value, impairment is defined and a write-down is recorded to adjust the carrying amount to the level of its recoverable value. The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value-in-use.
Estimation of the value-in-use of an assets (or cash generating unit) requires assumptions to be made regarding, among other, future cash flows which the Group may obtain from the given asset (or cash generating unit), any changes in amount or timing of occurrence of these cash flows and other factors such as the lack of liquidity. The adoption of different measurement assumptions may affect the carrying amount of some of the Group’s non-current assets.
As at 31 December 2023, the Group assessed whether the current market conditions have an impact on the impairment of non-current assets. As a result of this analysis, no need was found to make impairment allowances of non-current assets, including goodwill. The main assumptions used in the goodwill impairment test are presented in Note 28.
5.5.3. Provisions for legal risk regarding foreign currency mortgage loans in CHF
As at 31 December 2023 the Group assessed the probability of the impact of legal risk regarding foreign currency mortgage loans in CHF on the expected cash outflows resulting from this risk
Key elements of the estimate include:
1) a forecast of the number of disputes,
2) expected decisions/rulings of the courts,
3) customers' willingness to conclude settlements with the Bank.
Details on the main assumptions used to estimate the provisions for legal risk regarding foreign currency mortgage loans in CHF are presented in the Note 46.3.
5.5.4. Other estimation areas
Measurement of derivatives, unquoted debt securities measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and loans and advances to customers measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and measured at fair value through profit or loss
The fair value of non-option derivatives, debt securities measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and loans and advances to customers measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and measured at fair value through profit or loss that do not have a quoted market price on an active market is measured using valuation models based on
28
Bank Pekao S.A.
Consolidated Financial Statements of Bank Pekao S.A. Group for the year ended on 31 December 2023 (in PLN million )
discounted cash flows. Options are valued using option valuation models. Variables used for valuation purposes include, where possible, the data from observable markets. However, the Bank also adopts assumptions concerning counterparty’s credit risks which affect the valuation of instruments. The adoption of other measurement assumptions may affect the valuation of these financial instruments. The assumptions used for fair value measurement are described in detail in the Note 46.9.
Provisions for defined benefit plans
The main actuarial assumptions applied to estimatio of provisions for defined benefit plans, such as the discount rate and the salary increase rate, were presented in Note 38.
Provisions for commission refunds in the event of early repayment of loan
As at 31 December 2023 the Group assessed the legal risk arising from the judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Union (hereinafter the ‘CJEU’) on consumer loans and estimated the possible amount of cash outflow as a refund of commission to the customer in relation to early repayment of consumer loans (for loans prepaid before the judgment of the CJEU, i.e. before 11 September 2019).
In addition, with regard to balance sheet exposures as at 31 December 2023, the Group estimated the possible prepayments of these exposures in the future.
The estimates required the Group to adopt expert assumptions primarily regarding the scale of complaints and amounts reimbursed for prepaid loans before the CJEU judgment, as well as the expected scale of prepayments and future returns for balance sheet exposures, and are associated with significant uncertainty.
Details on the estimated provision for early repayment of consumer loans together with the sensitivity analysis are presented in Note 36.
6. Operating segments
Data reported in the section stem from the application of the management model (‘Model’) in which the main criterion for segmentation is the classification of customers based on their profile and service model.
Reporting and monitoring of results, for managerial purposes, include all components of the income statement up to the gross profit level. Therefore, the income from the segment’s activities as well as operating costs related to those activities (including direct and allocated costs in line with the allocation model applied) and other components of income statement are attached to each segment.
The Group settles transactions between segments on an arm’s length basis by applying current market prices. Fund transfers between retail, private, corporate and investment banking segments, and the assets and liabilities management and other area are based on market prices applicable to the funds’ currency and maturity, including liquidity margins.
Operating segments
The operating segments of the Group are as follows:
Retail banking all banking activities related to retail customers (excluding private banking customers) and micro companies with annual turnover not exceeding PLN 5 million, as well as results of the subsidiaries, and shares in net profit of associates accounted for using the equity method, that are assigned to the retail banking activity,
Private banking – all banking activities related to the most affluent individual customers,
Corporate and Investment banking all banking activities related to large companies and results of the subsidiaries that are assigned to the Corporate and Investment banking activity,
Enterprise banking - all banking activities related to the companies with annual turnover from PLN 5 million to PLN 500 million and below 5 million in the case of companies conducting full accounting,
Assets and Liabilities management and other supervision and monitoring of fund transfers, interbank market, debt securities and other instruments, other activities centrally managed as well as the results of subsidiaries and share in net profit of associates accounted for using the equity method that are not assigned to other reported segments .

7. Interest income and expense
Significant accounting policies
Interest income includes interest and commission fees received or due from loans, interbank deposits and securities measured at amortised cost recognized in the calculation of effective interest rate of loans and financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income or through profit or loss and hedging derivatives.
The effective interest rate is the discount rate of estimated future cash inflows and payments made during the expected period until the expiry date of the financial instruments.
The calculation of the effective interest rate includes all commissions paid and received by parties to the agreement, transaction costs and all other premiums and discounts, comprising an integral part of the effective interest rate.
Gross carrying amount of the financial asset is the basis for interest income calculation except for credit-impaired financial assets (‘in Stage 3’) and purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets (POCI assets). At the recognition of impairment of financial assets measured at amortised cost or financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, the interest income is still recognized in profit or loss but is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount less the impairment charges.
Interest expense related to liabilities associated with client accounts and debt securities issued are recognized in the profit or loss using the effective interest rate.
Income and expense from bancassurance
The Group splits the remuneration for sale of insurance products linked to loans into separate components, i.e. dividing the remuneration into proportion of fair value of financial instrument and fair value of intermediary service to the sum of those values. The fair values of particular components of the remuneration are determined based on market data to a highest degree.
The particular components of the Group’s remuneration for sale of insurance products linked to loans are recognized in the income statement according to the following principles:
remuneration from financial instrument – as part of effective interest rate calculation, included in interest income,
remuneration for intermediary service upfront at the time when the insurance product in sold, included in fee and commission income.
Additionally the Group estimates the part of the remuneration which will be refunded in the future (eg. due to early termination of insurance contract, early repayment of loan). The estimate of the provision for future refunds is based on the analysis of historical data and expectations in respect to refunds trend in the future.

(**) including income from derivative hedging instruments in the amount of minus PLN 418 million.
Modification of expected cash flows related to mortgage loan agreements in PLN
According to par. 5.4.3 of IFRS 9 introduced, by the Act on social financing for business ventures and support to borrowers, rights for customers to suspend their loan repayments in the period from July 2022 to December 2023 constitutes a modification of the expected cash flows and requires the adjustment of the gross carrying amount of the abovementioned loans by designating and recognizing in the Group's financial result the estimated cost resulting from the above-mentioned permissions as the difference between:
1) the present value of the expected cash flows from the loan portfolio that meets the criteria of the Act (gross carrying amount of this portfolio),
2) the present value of the expected cash flows from the loan portfolio, determined based on the modified cash flows taking into account the terms of the Act (i.e. the possibility of suspending the repayment of loan installments within the specified time frame with the simultaneous extension of the loan period) discounted with the current effective interest rate of the above -mentioned portfolio, taking into account the estimated level of participation of eligible customers who, in the Group's opinion, will exercise this right.
On the date of entry into force of the provisions in question (July 2022), the Bank estimated and included in the financial results the cost related to the modification of PLN mortgage loan agreements granted to consumers due to the suspension of loan repayments at the gross amount of PLN 2 429 million, assuming the expert-estimated participation rate (use of the rights under the Act) at the level of 85% and assuming the maximum size (i.e. 8 installments) of using the right by customers. In addition, the Bank assumed that a part (50%) of the amounts suspended by customers will be used by them to repay loans.
The final participation rate (use of the rights arising from the Act) was approximately 70% compared to the estimated level of 72%, and the early loan repayment rate related to the use of the above-mentioned rights was approximately 68% compared to the assumed level of 60%.
As a result of the above, in 2022 the Bank included in its results PLN 1 958 million of the cost related to the total expected modification of PLN mortgage loan agreements granted to consumers due to their suspension of loan repayments, of which during the period of validity of the above-mentioned regulations (2022 and 2023) it was actually realized in the amount of PLN 1 855 million, and the remaining amount, i.e. PLN 103 million, was recognized in interest income in 2023 .

8. Fee and commission income and expense
Significant accounting policies
Fee and commission income is generated from financial services provided by the Bank and are measured based on the remuneration specified in the contract with the client. Fee and commission income includes, among others: fees for granting loans (without schedules), for committing to grant a loan, fees for issuing cards, for card transactions, for servicing and selling investment and insurance products, for servicing bank accounts, for cash deposits and withdrawals, for trustee services, for securities operations and margins obtained on currency exchange transactions.
Fee and commision income and expense directly attributable to financial asset or financial liability origination with specific repayment schedules are accounted for using the effective interest rate and recognized in the profit and loss account under the item of interest income or expense and have been described above. The accounting policies relating to such income and expenses are described in Note 7.
Fee and commission income related to financial assets without specific repayment schedules (mainly overdrafts, working capital loans, credit card loans) and from the issuance, extension of the deadline, increase in the amount of guarantees and letters of credit, are amortised using the straight-line method over the life of the product to which they relate and are recognized in the income statement in the item ‘Fee and commission income’.
Commissions and fees for committing to grant loans that are most likely to be granted are deferred and, when the financial assets are initially recognized, they are settled using the effective interest rate or on a straight-line basis, depending on the type of loan they concern .
In the case of other fees and commissions related to financial services offered by the Group, a five-stage revenue recognition model is applied, i.e.:
1) identyfying the contract,
2) indication of the elements (individual obligations) contained in the contract,
34
Bank Pekao S.A.
Consolidated Financial Statements of Bank Pekao S.A. Group for the year ended on 31 December 2023 (in PLN million )
3) determinig the price,
4) allocating the price to individual element of the contract,
5) recognition of revenue after meeting the conditions related to individual elements of the contract.
The Group applies the above model each time and recognizes income from commissions and fees:
1) once (when a service has been performed and control over the service has been transferred to the other party to the contract),
2) over time, when the service is provided over a period of time
The above settlement model is used primarily for services such as: fees for issuing cards, for card transactions, for servicing and selling investment products, for servicing bank accounts, for cash deposits and withdrawals, for custody services, for securities operations and margins obtained on currency exchange transactions.
The accounting policies relating income and expenses from bancassurance are described in Note 7 .

12. Net allowances for expected credit losses
Significant accounting policies
A financial asset is credit-impaired when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of that financial asset have occurred. Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired include observable data about the following events:
1) significant financial difficulty of the issuer or the borrower,
2) a breach of contract, such as a default or past due event,
3) the lender(s) of the borrower, for economic or contractual reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty, having granted to the borrower a concession(s) that the lender(s) would not otherwise consider,
4) it is becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization,
5) the disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties, or
6) the purchase or origination of a financial asset at a deep discount that reflects the incurred credit losses.
The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on a financial asset that is measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income, a financial lease receivable, a contract asset or a loan commitment and a financial guarantee contract.
A loss allowance for financial assets that are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income is recognised in other comprehensive income and is not reducing the carrying amount of the financial asset in the statement of financial position.
If, at the reporting date, the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Group measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses.
At each reporting date, the Bank measures the loss allowance for a financial instrument at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on that financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition.
For financial instruments in Stage 3, the Group measures the expected credit losses in the amount equal to the expected credit losses over the life of such instruments.
The Group recognises in profit or loss, changes in expected credit losses and impairment losses occurring in the reporting period.
38
Bank Pekao S.A.
Consolidated Financial Statements of Bank Pekao S.A. Group for the year ended on 31 December 2023 (in PLN million )
For loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts, the date that the Group becomes a party to the irrevocable commitment shall be considered to be the date of initial recognition for the purposes of applying the impairment requirements.
Since initial recognition of POCI assets, the Group recognises the cumulative changes in lifetime expected credit losses as a loss allowance for purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets. At each reporting date, the Group recognises in profit or loss the amount of the change in lifetime expected credit losses as an impairment gain or loss. An entity shall recognise favourable changes in lifetime expected credit losses as an impairment gain, even if the lifetime expected credit losses are less than the amount of expected credit losses that were included in the estimated cash flows on initial recognition.
The Group measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses for:
1) trade receivables or contract assets that result from transactions that are within the scope of IFRS 15,
2) receivables that result from transactions that are within the scope of IFRS 16 (other than receivables from finance lease).
Expected credit losses are not recognized for impairment of equity instruments.
The methodology for calculating expected credit losses is described in detail in ‘The description of the model for impairment allowance’ in Note 46.2.

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. The income tax expense is recognized in the income statement excluding the situations when it is recognized directly in equity. The current tax is the tax payable of the Group entities on their taxable income for the period, calculated based on binding tax rates, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. The receivables resulting from taxes are disclosed if the Group’s companies has sufficient certainty that they exist and that they will be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and d eferred tax liabilities are calculated, using the balance sheet method, on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates based on legislation enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date and expected to apply when the deferred tax asset or the deferred tax liability is realized.
A deferred tax asset is recognized for negative temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilized.
A deferred tax liability is calculated using the balance sheet method based on identification of positive temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for tax purposes.

21. Derivative financial instruments (held for trading)
Significant accounting policies
The Group acquires the derivative financial instruments: currency transactions (spot, forward, currency swap and currency options, CIRS), exchange rate transactions (FRA, IRS, CAP), derivative transactions based on security prices, indices of stocks and commodities. Derivative financial instruments are initially recorded at fair value as at the transaction date and subsequently re-measured at fair value at each balance sheet date. The fair value is established on the basis of market quotations for an instrument traded in an active market, as well as on the basis of valuation techniques, including models using discounted cash flows and options valuation models, depending on which valuation method is appropriate.
Positive valuation of derivative financial instruments is presented in the statement of financial position in the line ‘Derivative financial instruments (held for trading)’ on an asset side, whereas the negative valuation ‘Derivative financial instruments (held for trading)’ on a liabilities side.
In case of contracts that are not financial instruments with a component of an instrument meeting the above conditions the built-in derivative instrument is classified in accordance with assets or liabilities of derivatives financial instruments with respect to the income statement in accordance with derivative financial instruments valuation principles.
The method of recognition of the changes in the fair value of an instrument depends on whether a derivative instrument is classified as held for trading or is designated as a hedging item under hedge accounting.
The changes in fair value of the derivative financial instruments held for trading are recognized in the income statement.
Derivative financial instruments at the Group
In its operations the Group uses different financial derivatives that are offered to the clients and are used for managing risks involved in the Bank’s business. The majority of derivatives at the Group include over-the-counter contracts. Regulated stock exchange contracts (mainly futures) represent a small part of those derivatives.
Derivative foreign exchange transactions include the obligation to buy or sell foreign and domestic currency assets. Forward foreign exchange transactions are based on the foreign exchange rates, specified on the transaction date for a predefined future date. These transactions are valued using the discounted cash flow model. Cash flows are discounted according to zero-coupon yield curves, relevant for a given market.
Foreign exchange swaps are a combination of a swap of specific currencies as at spot date and of reverse a transaction as at forward date with foreign exchange rates specified in advance on transaction date. Transactions of such type are settled by an exchange of assets. These transactions are valued using the discounted cash flow model. Cash flows are discounted according to zero-coupon yield curves relevant for a given market.
Foreign exchange options with delivery are defined as contracts, where one of the parties, i.e. the option buyer, purchases from the other party, referred to as the option writer, at a so-called premium price the right without the obligation to buy (call option) or to sell (put option), at a specified point of time in the future or during a specified time range a foreign currency amount specified in the contract at the exchange rate set during the conclusion of the option agreement.
In case of options settled in net amounts, upon acquisition of the rights, the buyer receives an amount of money equal to the product of notional and difference between spot ad strike price.
Barrier option with one barrier is a type of option where exercise of the option depends on the underlying crossing or reaching a given barrier level. A barrier may be reached starting from lower (‘UP’) or from higher (‘DOWN’) level of the underlying instrument. ‘IN’ options start their lives worthless and only become active when a predetermined knock-in barrier price is breached. ‘OUT’ options start their lives active and become null and void when a certain knock-out barrier price is breached.
Foreign exchange options are priced using the Garman-Kohlhagen valuation model (and in case of barrier and Asian options using the so-called expanded Garman-Kohlhagen model). Parameters of the model based on market quotations of plain- vanilla at-the-money options and market spreads for out-of-the-money and in-the-money options (volatility smile) for standard maturities.
Derivatives related to interest rates enable the Group and its customers to transfer, modify or limit interest rate risk.
In the case of Interest Rate Swaps (IRS), counterparties exchange between each other the flows of interest payments, accrued on the nominal amount identified in the contract. These transactions are valued using the discounted cash flow model. Floating (implied) cash flows are estimated on base of respective IRS rates. Floating and fixed cash flows are discounted by relevant zero-coupon yield curves.
Forward Rate Agreements (FRA) involve both parties undertaking to pay interest on a predefined nominal amount for a specified period starting in the future and charged according to the interest rate determined on the day of the agreement The parties settle the transaction on value date using the reference rate as a discount rate in the processof discounting the

difference between the FRA rate (forward rate as at transaction date) and the reference rate. These transactions are valued using the discounted cash flow model.
Cross currency IRS involves both parties swapping capital and interest flows in different currencies in a specified period. These transactions are valued using the discounted cash flow model. Valuation of Basis Swap transactions (cross currency IRS with floating coupon) takes into account market quotations of basis spread (Basis swap spread).
In the case of forward transactions on securities, counterparties agree to buy or sell specified securities on a forward date for a payment fixed on the date of transaction. Such transactions are measured based upon the valuation of the security (mark-to-market or mark-to-model) and valuation of the related payment (method of discounting cash flows by money market rate).
Interest rate options (cap/floor) are contracts where one of the parties, the option buyer, purchases from the other party, the option writer, at a so-called premium price, the right without the obligation to borrow (cap) or lend (floor) at specified points of time in the future (independently) amounts specified in the contract at the interest rate set during the conclusion of the option. Contracts are net-settled (without fund location) at agreed time. Transactions of this type are valued using the Normal model (Bachelier model). The model is parameterized based upon market quotations of options as at standard quoted maturities.
Interest rate futures transactions refer to standardized forward contracts purchased on the stock market. Futures contracts are measured based upon quotations available directly from stock exchanges.
Commodity swap contracts are obligations to net settlement equivalent to the execution of a commodity buy or sell transaction at the settlement price according to determination rules set at the trade inception. Commodity instruments are valued with the discounted cash flows method, which includes commodity prices term structure.
Asian commodity options are contracts with the right to buy or sell a certain amount of commodity on a expiry date at the specified price, where settlement price is based on an average level established on the basis of a series of commodity price observations in the period preceding the maturity date of the option. Commodity options are valued with the Black-Scholes model that includes moment matching of commodity price distribution for the arithmetic average.
Derivative financial instruments embedded in other instruments
The Group uses derivatives financial instruments embedded in complex financial instruments, i.e. such as including both a derivative and base agreement, which results in part of the cash flows of the combined instrument changing similarly to cash flows of an independent derivative. Derivatives embedded in other instruments cause part or all cash flows resulting from the base agreement to be modified as per a specific interest rate, price of a security, foreign exchange rate, price index or interest rate index.
The Group has deposits and certificates of deposits on offer which include embedded derivatives. As the nature of such instrument is not strictly associated with the nature of the deposit agreement, the embedded instrument is separated and classified into the portfolio held-for-trading. The valuation of such instrument is recognized in the income statement. Embedded instruments include simple options (plain vanilla) and exotic options for single stocks, commodities, indices and other market indices, including interest rate indices, foreign exchange rates and their related baskets.
All embedded options are immediately closed back-to-back on the interbank market.
Currency options embedded in deposits are valued as other currency options.
Exotic options embedded in deposits as well as their close positions are valued using the Monte-Carlo simulation technique assuming Geometric Brownian Motion model of risk factors. Model parameters are determined first of all on the basis of quoted options and futures contracts and in their absence based on statistical measures of the underlying instrument dynamic.
Risk involved in financial derivatives
Market risk and credit risk are the basic types of risk, associated with derivatives.
At the beginning, financial derivatives usually have a small market value or no market value at all. It is a consequence of the fact that derivatives require no initial net investments, or require a very small net investment compared to other types of contracts, which display a similar reaction to changing market conditions.
Derivatives gain positive or negative value as a result of change in specific interest rates, prices of securities, prices of commodities, currency exchange rates, price index, credit standing or credit index or another market parameter. In case of such changes, the derivatives held become more or less advantageous than instruments with the same residual maturities, available at that moment on the market.

Credit risk related to derivative contracts is a potential cost of concluding a new contract on the original terms and conditions if the other party to the original contract fails to meet its obligations. In order to assess the potential cost of replacement the Group uses the same method as for credit risk assessment. In order to control its credit risk levels the Bank performs assessments of other contract parties using the same methods as for credit decisions.
The following tables present nominal amounts of financial derivatives and fair values of such derivatives. Nominal amounts of certain financial instruments are used for comparison with balance sheet instruments but need not necessarily indicate what the future cash flow amounts will be or what the current fair value of such instruments is and therefore do not reflect the Bank’s credit or price risk level.

22. Hedge accounting
Significant accounting policies
Derivative hedging financial instruments are initially recorded at fair value as at the transaction date and subsequently re- measured at fair value at each balance sheet date. The fair value is established on the basis of market quotations for an instrument traded in an active market, as well as on the basis of valuation techniques, including models using discounted cash flows and options valuation models, depending on which valuation method is appropriate.
Positive valuation of derivative hedging financial instruments is presented in the statement of financial position in the line ‘Hedging instruments’ on an asset side, whereas the negative valuation – ‘Hedging instruments’ on a liabilities side.
The Group designates some of its derivative instruments as hedging items in applying hedge accounting. The Group decided to take advantage of the choice which gives IFRS 9 and continues to apply the hedge accounting requirements of IAS 39. This decision will apply to all hedging relationships, for which the Bank applies and will apply hedge accounting in the future. The Bank implemented fair value hedge accounting as well as cash flow hedge accounting.
22.1. Fair value hedge accounting
Fair value hedge accounting significant accounting principles
Changes in the measurement to fair value of financial instruments indicated as hedged positions are recognized in the part ensuing from hedged risk in the income statement. In the remaining part, changes in the carrying amount are recognized in accordance with the principles applicable for the given class of financial instruments.
Changes in the fair market valuation of derivative financial instruments, indicated as hedging positions in fair value hedge accounting, are recognized in the profit or loss in the same caption, in which the gains/losses from change in the value of hedged positions are recognized i.e. in the item ‘Net income from fair value hedge accounting’.
Interest income on derivative instruments hedging interest positions hedged is presented as interest margin.
The Group ceases to apply hedge accounting, when the hedging instrument expires, is sold, dissolved or released (the replacement of one hedging instrument with another or extension of validity of given hedging instrument is not considered an expiration or release, providing such replacement or extension of validity is a part of a documented hedging strategy adopted by given unit), or does not meet the criteria of hedge accounting or the Group ceases the hedging relation.
An adjustment for the hedged risk on hedged interest position is amortised in the income statement at the point of ceasing to apply hedge accounting.
Characteristics of fair value hedge accounting
The Group applies fair value hedge accounting for fixed coupon debt securities denominated in PLN and EUR, hedged with interest rate swap (IRS) transactions in the same currencies. The Group hedges component of interest rate risk related to the fair value changes of the hedged item resulting exclusively from the volatility of market interest rates (WIBOR, EURIBOR). In the past, hedged risk component accounted for a significant portion of changes in fair value of the hedged item.
The approach of the Group to market risk managemant, including interest rate risk, and details regarding exposure of the Group to interest rate risk are disclosed in the Note 46.4.
The use of derivative instruments to hedge the exposure to changes in interest rates generates counterparty credit risk of derivative transactions. The Group mitigates this risk by requiring the counterparties to post collateral deposits and by settling derivative transactions through Central Counterparty Clearing Houses (CCPs) whch apply a number of mechanisms allowing systemic reduction of the risk of default on obligations under concluded transactions.
The Group applies fair value hedge accounting to a hedging relationship if it is justified to expect that the hedge will be highly effective in achieving offsetting fair value changes attributable to the hedged risk in the future and if assessment of hedge effectiveness indicates high effectiveness in all financial reporting periods for which the hedge was designated.
According to the approach of the Group, hedge ratio is determined as ratio of fair value of the hedged item to fair value of the hedging instrument. A hedging relationship is considered effective if all of the following criteria are met:
high effectiveness of the hedge can be expected on the basis of comparison of critical terms of the hedged item and the hedging instrument,
in each reporting period, hedge ratio is within 80% - 125% range or relation of inefficiency amount to nominal value of the hedged item is less or equal than the threshold specified in documentation of the hedging relationship, where inefficiency amount is calculated as the sum of cumulative fair value changes of the hedged item and the hedging instrument,
in each reporting period, simulation of hedge ratio in assumed evolution of market rates scenarios is within 80% - 125% range.
As regards fair value hedge relationships, the main sources of ineffectiveness are:
52

impact of the counterparty credit risk and own credit risk of the Group on the fair value of the hedging transactions (IRS), which is not reflected in the fair value of the hedged item,
differences in maturities of the interest rate swaps and debt securities,
differences in coupon amounts generated by the hedged item and hedging instruments.

22.2. Cash flow hedge accounting
Cash flow hedge accounting significant accounting principles
Changes in the fair value of the derivative financial instruments indicated as cash flow hedging instruments are recognized:
directly in the caption ‘Revaluation reserves’ in the part constituting the effective hedge,
in the income statement in the line ‘Result on financial assets and liabilities held for trading and foreign exchange result’ in the part representing ineffective hedge.
The amounts accumulated in the ‘Revaluation reserves’ are transferred to the income statement in the period, in which the hedge is reflected in the income statement and are presented in the same lines as individual components of the hedged position measurement, i.e. the interest income from hedging derivatives in cash flow hedge accounting is recognized in the interest result, whereas gains/losses from foreign exchange revaluation are presented in the foreign exchange gains (losses).
The Group ceases to apply hedge accounting when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, or if the Group revokes the designation, or when hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting. In such cases, the accumulated gains or losses related to such hedging item, initially recognized in ‘Revaluation reserves’, if the hedge was effective, are still presented in equity until the planned transaction was closed and recognized in the income statement.
If the planned transaction is no longer probable, the cumulative gains or losses recognized in ‘Revaluation reserves’ are transferred to the income statement for the given period.
Characteristics of cash flow hedge accounting
The Group applies:
interest rate swaps (IRS) to hedge the exposure to interest rate risk related to the volatility of market reference rates (WIBOR, EURIOR), generated by portfolios of variable-rate loans denominated in PLN and EUR,
currency swaps (FX-Swap) to hedge the exposure to the currency risk, generated by both, portfolios of loans denominated in EUR and portfolios of current and term deposits denominated in USD,
interest rate swaps (IRS) to hedge the exposure to interest rate risk related to the volatility of market reference rates (WIBOR, EURIBOR), generated by portfolio of deposits denominated in PLN and EUR, which economically constitute a long-term, variable-rate liability.
In 2022, Group extended the existing relationship (CFH IRS loans) with the current and future cash flows resulting from floating interest rate loans and bonds in EUR held by Bank, as well as intrest rate swap transactions hedging the interest rate risk in EUR.
In 2022, the Group stopped applying hedge accounting principles to one hedging relationship as a result of the expiry of hedging instruments: currency-interest swaps (basis swap) hedging a portfolios of loans and lease receivables with a floating interest rate in EUR and a portfolio of deposits in PLN economically constituting a long-term liability with a floating interest rate. Discontinuation of hedge accounting under the above-mentioned relationship had no impact on the income statement.
Approach of the Group to hedging interest rate risk through cash flow hedge accounting is the same as the approach applied in the fair value hedge accounting as described above, i.e. only the component of interest rate risk related exclusively to volatility of market reference rates (in the case of cash flows hedge: WIBOR, EURIBOR, is hedged.
Approach of the Group to market risk management, including interest rate risk and currency risk, and details regarding the Bank’s interest rate risk and currency risk exposure are disclosed in Note 46.4.
As in the case of the fair value hedge, using derivative instruments to hedge the exposure to interest rate risk and currency risk generates counterparty credit risk of the derivative transactions, which is not compensated by the hedged item. The Group manages this risk in a way similar to fair value hedge.
The Group applies cash flow hedge accounting to a hedging relationship if it is justified to expect that the hedge will be highly effective in achieving offsetting cash flow changes attributable to the hedged risk in the future and if assessment of hedge effectiveness indicates high effectiveness in all financial reporting periods for which the hedge was designated. The assessment is conducted using hypothetical derivative method.
According to the approach of the Group, a hedging relationship is considered effective if all of the following criteria are met:
correlation coefficient between market reference rate of hedged items and market reference rate of hedging instrument is high,
forecasted interest flows generated by hedged items are not lower than forecasted interest flows generated by hedging instruments,
in each reporting period, ratio of the fair value of the hedged item to the fair value of the hedging instrument is within 80% - 125% range or relation of inefficiency amount to nominal value of the hedged item is less or equal to the threshold specified in documentation of the hedging relationship, where inefficiency amount is calculated as the sum of cumulative fair value changes of the hedged item and the hedging instrument,
55

Bank Pekao S.A.
in each reporting period, simulation of hedge ratio in assumed evolution of market rates scenarios is within 80% - 125% range.
In the case of hedging interest rate and currency risk of portfolios of loans and deposits, the manner of managing these portfolios was adopted allowing for regular inclusion of new transactions in the hedging relationship and exclusion of transactions from the hedging relationship as a result of repayment or classification to non-performing category. As a result, the exposure of these portfolios to interest rate and currency risk is constantly changing. Because of frequent changes to term structure of the portfolio, the Group dynamically assigns the hedged items and allows for matching of hedging instruments to these changes.
As regards cash flow hedge relationships, the main sources of ineffectiveness are:
impact of counterparty and the Group’s own credit risk on the fair value of the hedging instruments, i.e. interest rate swap (IRS), cross-currency interest rate swap (basis swap), currency swap (FX swap) which is not reflected in the fair value of the hedged item,
differences in repricing frequency of the hedging instruments and and hedged loans and deposits.

26. Assets held for sale
Significant accounting policies
Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations
Non-current assets held for sale include assets, the carrying amount of which is to be recovered by way of resale and not from their continued use. The only assets classified as held for sale are those available for immediate sale in their present condition, and the sale of which is highly probable, i.e. when the decision has been made to sell a given asset, an active program to identify a buyer has been launched and the divestment plan is completed. Moreover, such assets are offered for sale at a price which approximates its present fair value, and it is expected that the sale will be recognized as completed within one year from the date of such asset is reclassified into this category.
Non-current assets held for sale are recognized at the carrying amount or at fair value reduced by the cost of such assets, whichever is lower. Assets classified in this category are not subject to depreciation.
A discontinued operation is a component of the Group’s business which constitutes a separate line of business or a geographical area of operations, which was sold, made available for sale or to be disposed, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to re-sale. Classification as a discontinued operation occurs on disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale. When an operation is classified as held for sale, the comparative figures in the income statement are represented as if the operation had been discontinued from the beginning of the comparative period.
As at 31 December 2023 and 31 December 2022 non-current assets classified as held for sale are identified non-current assets meeting requirements of IFRS 5 ‘Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations’:
real estate,
other property, plant and equipment.

28. Intangible assets
Significant accounting policies
Goodwill
Goodwill is defined as a surplus of the purchasing price over the fair value of acquired assets, assumed liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquired subsidiary, associate or a unit under joint control. Goodwill at initial recognition is carried at purchase price reduced by any accumulated impairment losses. Impairment is determined by estimating the recoverable value of the cash generating unit, to which given goodwill pertains.
If the recoverable value of the cash generating unit is lower than the carrying amount an impairment charge is made. Impairment identified in the course of such tests is not reversed.
Goodwill on acquisition of subsidiaries is presented in intangible assets and goodwill on acquisition of associates is presented under the caption ‘Investments in associates’.
Other intangible assets
Intangible assets are assets controlled by the Group which do not have a physical form which are identifiable and represent future economic benefits for the Group directly attributable to such assets.
These assets include:
computer software licenses,
copyrights,
costs of completed development works.
Intangible assets are initially carried at purchase price. Subsequently intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses.
Intangible assets with a definite useful life are amortised over their estimated useful life. Intangible assets with indefinite useful life are not amortised.
All intangible assets are reviewed on a periodical basis to verify if any significant impairment triggers occurred, which would require performing a test for impairment and a potential impairment charge.
As far as intangible assets with indefinite useful life and those still not put into service are concerned, impairment test is performed on a yearly basis and additionally when impairment triggers are identified.

goodwill that was transferred to Bank Pekao S.A. on integration with Bank BPH S.A. It represents the goodwill recognized upon acquisition of Pierwszy Komercyjny Bank S.A. in Lublin (‘PKBL’) by Bank BPH S.A. and relates to those branches of the PKBL which were transferred to Bank Pekao S.A. as a result of integration with Bank BPH S.A. It is determined the smallest identifiable cash-generating units (‘CGU’) relating to the Bank’s retail segment, to which the goodwill has been allocated in the amount of PLN 52 million,
gooodwill recognized upon acquisition of Pekao Leasing i Finanse S.A. (formerly BPH Leasing S.A.) by Pekao Leasing Holding S.A. (formerly BPH PBK Leasing S.A.). It is determined the smallest identifiable cash-generating units (‘CGU’) relating to the Bank’s leasing business segment, to which the goodwill has been allocated in the amount of PLN 3 million,
goodwill recognized upon acquisition of Spółdzielcza Kasa Oszczędnościowo Kredytowa im. Mikołaja Kopernika by Bank Pekao S.A. It is determined the smallest identifiable cash-generating units (‘CGU’) relating to the Bank’s retail segment, to which the goodwill has been allocated in the amount of PLN 1 million,
goodwill resulting from the acquisition of Idea Bank S.A. by Bank Pekao S.A. The smallest identifiable cash-generating units relating to the Bank’s retail segment were determined, to which goodwill was assigned in the amount of PLN 1 million.
In respect to the goodwill, the impairment tests are performed annually, irrespective of whether there is any indication that it may be impaired.
The impairment tests are performed by comparing the carrying amount of the CGU, including the goodwill, with the recoverable amount of the CGU. The recoverable amount is estimated on the basis of value in use of the CGU. The value in use is the present, estimated value of the future cash flows for the period of 5 years, taking into account the residual value of the CGU. The residual value of the CGU is calculated based on an extrapolation of cash flows projections beyond the forecast period using the growth rate presented in the table below. The forecasts of the future cash flows are based on the assumptions included the budget for 2024 and financial plan for 2025-2028. To discount the future cash flows, it is applied the discount rates, which includes the risk-free rate and the risk premium.
The growth rates and discount rates used in the impairment tests for goodwill are as follows.

Sensitivity analysis
Estimating the recoverable amount is a complex process and requires the use of subjective assumptions. Relatively small changes in key assumptions may have a significant effect on the measurement of the recoverable amount.
The table below presents the surplus of recoverable amounts over the carrying amounts under the current assumptions and the maximum discount rates at which the carrying amounts and recoverable amounts of each CGU are equalized.

29. Property, plant and equipment
Significant accounting policies
Property, plant and equipment are defined as controlled non-current assets and assets under construction. Non-current assets include certain tangible assets with an expected useful life longer than one year, which are maintained for the purpose of own use or to be leased to other entities.
Property, plant and equipment are recognized at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment write downs. Historical cost consists of purchase price or development cost and costs directly related to the purchase of a given asset.
Each component of property, plant and equipment, the purchase price or production cost of which is significant compared to the purchase price or production cost of the entire item is a subject to separate depreciation. The Group separates the initial value of property, plant and equipment into its significant parts.
Subsequent expenditures relating to property plant and equipment are capitalized only when it is probable that such expenditures will result in future economic benefits to the Group, and the cost of such expenses can be reliably measured.
Service and maintenance costs of property, plant and equipment are expensed in the reporting period in which they have been incurred.
Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset form part of the cost of that asset. Other borrowing costs are recognized as an expense.

Significant accounting policies
The provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) resulting from the past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, the amount of a provision is established by discounting forecasted future cash flows to the present value, using the discount rate reflecting current market estimates of the time value of money and the possible risk associated with the obligation.
The provisions include provisions for litigation and claims (in this provision for legal risk regarding foreign currency mortgage loans in CHF and provision for early repayments of consumer loans), provisions relating to long-term employee benefits, in this those measured by an actuary and provisions for restructuring costs. The provision for restructuring costs is recognized when the general recognition criteria for provisions and detailed criteria for recognition of provisions for restructuring cost under IAS 37 ‘Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets’ are met. The amount of employment restructuring provision is calculated by the Group on the basis of the best available estimates of direct outlays resulting from restructuring activities, which are not connected with the Group’s current activities.
The provisions are charged to the income statement, except for actuarial gains and losses from the measurement of the defined benefit plans obligations, which are recognized in other comprehensive income.

The financial discount rate is determined by reference to market yields at the end of reporting period on government bonds. The probability of an individual get to the retirement age or die while working is determined using the multiple decrement model, taking into consideration the following risks: possibility of dismissal from service, risk of total disability to work and risk of death.

the discount rate at the level of 5.1% (6.7 % as at 31 December 2022),
the future salary growth rate at the level of 2.5% (3.5 % as at 31 December 2022),

Bank Pekao S.A.
Consolidated Financial Statements of Bank Pekao S.A. Group for the year ended on 31 December 2023 (in PLN million )
Since January 2019, the System of Variable Remuneration for the Management Team has been in force, reflecting the provisions of the resolution of the General Meeting of the Bank on adjusting the remuneration of members of the management board to the requirements of the Act on the principles of determining the remuneration of persons managing certain companies.
For the System 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023 the fair value of the program was estimated based upon the Bank’s shares price on the WSE as of the balance sheet date and expected number of phantom shares to which the rights will be acquired.
For the System 2023, as of 31 December 2023 the Bank prepared the program valuation, presuming that the phantom shares were granted on 31 December 2023. This value will be changed at the actual date of granting the program.
The system of variable remuneration realized in the form of phantom shares is a program settled in cash, and therefore its fair value is adjusted on each balance sheet date until the the program settlement, which in case of this program coincides with the vesting date.
The carrying amount of liabilities for cash-settled phantom shares amounted to PLN 65 million as at 31 December 2023 (as at 31 December 2022 – PLN 51 milion).
The total intrinsic value of liabilities for vested rights to phantom shares amounted to PLN 56 million as at 31 December 2023 (as at 31 December 2022 – PLN 29 million).
The remuneration expenses for 2023 relating to the system of variable remuneration in the form of phantom shares amounted to PLN 35 million (in 2022 - PLN 21 million).
The table below presents changes in the number of Bank’s phantom shares (in PLN thousand).

Bank Pekao S.A.
Consolidated Financial Statements of Bank Pekao S.A. Group for the year ended on 31 December 2023 (in PLN million )
Group as a lessee
The Group, as a lessee, recognizes the lease contract as a component of the right-to-use assets and the corresponding lease liability on the date when the subject of the lease is available for use. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and accrued interest on the liability. Interest expense is recognized in the income statement over the lease term to obtain a constant periodic interest rate on the remaining balance of the lease liability. The right-of-use asset is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of two periods: the useful life of the asset or the lease term. The Group recognizes the right-of-use assets in the item of the statement of financial position ‘Property, plant and equipment’ and lease liabilities - in the item of the statement of financial position ‘Amounts due to customers’ or ‘Amounts due to banks’.
The right-of-use assets are measured at cost, comprising:
the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability,
any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives received,
any initial direct costs incurred by the lessee, and
an estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset, restoring the site on which it is located, if the lessee incurs liabilities regarding these costs.
On the date when the lease commences, the Group, as a lessee, measures the lease liability in the present value of lease payments outstanding as at that date. The lease liabilities include the current value of the following lease payments:
fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable,
variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate,
amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees,
the exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option, and
payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising an option to terminate the lease.
The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if the rate can be readily determined, or the Group’s incremental borrowing rate.
After the lease commencement date, the Group taken into account changes in lease payments (resulting, inter alia, from changes in the index, rate, lease term), by remeasuring the lease liabilities and the right-of-use assets.
The Group does not recognize the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term lease contracts and lease contracts of low-value assets. Short-term lease payments and payments for leases of low-value assets are recognized as an expense in the income statement on a straight-line basis. Short-term lease contracts are lease contracts that have a lease term of 12 months or less. Low-value assets include mainly lease of space (land) for ATMs.
Group as a lessor
At commencement date of a lease, the Group, as a lessor, classifies each lease contract as an operating lease or a finance lease. The Group classifies a lease as a finance lease whether it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an underlying asset. Conversely, if substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the underlying asset are not transferred, the lease is considered to be an operating lease. In the process of determining the classification of a lease contract, the Group takes into account elements such as whether the lease term accounts for the major part of the economic life of the underlying asset.
Finance lease
At the commencement date, the Group, as a lessor, recognizes assets held under a finance lease in its statement of financial position and present them as a receivables from finance lease (presented in item ‘Loans and advances to customers’) at an amount equal to the net investment in the lease, i.e. at present value of lease payments and any unguaranteed residual value assigned to the Group.
At the finance lease commencement date, the lease payments included in the measurement of the net investment in the lease comprise the following payments for the right to use the underlying asset during the lease term that are not received at the commencement date:
fixed payments, less any lease incentives payable,
variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate,
any residual value guarantees provided to the Group as a lessor,
the exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option, and
payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising an option to terminate the lease.
During the lease term, the Group, as a lessor, recognizes interest income, based on a pattern reflecting a constant periodic rate of return on the Group's net investment in the lease. Lease payments paid over the lease term, reduce both the principal and the accrued interest.
84
Bank Pekao S.A.
Consolidated Financial Statements of Bank Pekao S.A. Group for the year ended on 31 December 2023 (in PLN million )
The Group applies the derecognition and impairment requirements in IFRS 9 to the net investment in the lease. The estimated unguaranteed residual values used in computing the gross investment in the lease are regularly reviewed by the Group.
Operating lease
During the lease term, the Group, as a lessor, recognizes lease payments from operating lease as income on a straight-line basis and presents them in the item ‘Other operating income’. The depreciation of leased assets is recognized in accordance with the principles applied by the Group for property, plant and equipment.
Financial data

41. Contingent commitments and litigation and claims
Significant accounting policies
Contingent liabilities and commitments
The Group enters into transactions which are not recognized in the statement of financial position as assets or liabilities, but which result in contingent liabilities and commitments. Contingent liabilities are characterized as:
a potential obligation the existence of which will be confirmed upon occurrence or non-occurrence of uncertain future events that are beyond the control of the Group (e.g. litigations),
a current obligation which arises as a result of past events but is not recognized in the statement of financial position as it is improbable that it will result in an outflow of benefits to settle the obligation or the amount of the obligation cannot be reliably measured (mainly: unused credit lines and guarantees and letters of credit issued).
Financial guarantees and loan commitments
Financial guarantees are contracts that the Group is required as issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it to be incurred because a specified debtor fails to make when due under the original or modified terms of a debt instrument.
Financial guarantees are measured at the higher of:
the amount of the loss allowance, or
the amount initially recognised less the cumulative amount of income recognised in accordance with the principles of IFRS 15.
Loan commitments are binding commitments to extend credit under certain prespecified terms and conditions.

46.2. Credit risk
Credit risk is one of the basic risks associated with activities of the Group. The percentage share of credits and loans in the Group’s statement of financial position makes the maintenance of this risk at safe level essential to the Group’s performance. The process of credit risk management is centralized and managed mainly by Risk Management Division units, situated at the Bank Head Office or in local units.
Risk management process covers all credit functions credit analysis, making credit decisions, monitoring and loan administration, as well as restructuring and collection.
These functions are conducted in compliance with the Bank’s credit policy, adopted by the Bank’s Management Board and the Bank’s Supervisory Board for a given reporting year. The effectiveness and efficiency of credit functions are achieved using diverse credit methods and methodologies, supported by advanced IT tools, integrated into the Bank’s general IT system. The Bank’s procedures facilitate credit risk mitigation, in particular those related to transaction risk evaluation, to establishing collateral, setting authorization limits for granting loans and limiting of exposure to some areas of business activity in line with current client’s segmentation scheme in the Bank.
Credit granting authorizations, restrictions on crediting the specific business activities as well as internal and external prudential standards include not only credits, loans and guarantees, but also derivatives transactions and debt securities.
The Bank’s lending activity is limited by the restrictions of the external regulation as well as internal prudential standards in order to increase safety. These restrictions refer in particular to credit exposure concentration, credit quality ratios and exposure limits for particular foreign countries, foreign banks and domestic financial institutions.
The Bank established the following portfolio limits in the Bank’s strategy or credit risk policy:
exposure limits for sectors of economy,
limits on the concentration of the largest exposures to entities / groups of related entities,
limits for main business lines and currency receivables,
product limits (mortgage loans to private individuals, exposures to business entities secured by mortgage, inculidng financing commercial real estate).
The internal limits system operating in the Bank also includes a number of detailed limits supporting key limits set out in the strategy and credit risk policy.
Moreover, the Bank limits higher risk credit transactions, marked by excess risk by restricting the decision-making powers in such cases to higher-level decision-making bodies.
The management of the Bank’s credit portfolio quality is further supported by regular reviews and continuous monitoring of timely loan repayments and the financial condition of the borrowers.
Armed conflict in Ukraine
In connection with Russia’s armed attack on Ukraine, which has been ongoing since 2022, the Group identifies the following threats in the area of credit risk:
credit loss risk for exposures to entities from Russia, Belarus and Ukraine, with the Group’s exposure in this regard mostly covered by KUKE policies,
the risk that the conflict will translate into deterioration of the economic and credit conditions for the rest of the portfolio (through the raw material price growth channel, disruption of economic relations, deterioration of consumer sentiment, etc.).
As at 31 December 2023, the Group’s balance sheet net exposure to countries involved in the conflict amounted to PLN 129 million (which represents 0.08% of the Group’s total exposure) as at 31 December 2022 amounted to PLN 225 million (which represents 0.14% of the Group’s total exposure).

Rating models utilized in the credit risk management process
For credit risk management purposes, the Group uses the internal rating models depending on the client’s segment and/or exposure type.
The rating process is a significant element of credit risk assessment in relation to clients and transactions, and constitutes a preliminary stage of the credit decision-making process of granting a new credit or changing the terms and conditions of an existing credit and of the credit portfolio quality monitoring process.
In the credit risk measurement the following three parameters are used: PD, LGD and EAD. PD is the probability of a client’s failure to meet its obligations and hence the violation of contract terms and conditions by the borrower within one year horizon, such default may be subject-matter or product-related. LGD indicates the estimated value of the loss to be incurred for any credit transaction from the date of occurrence of such default. EAD reflects the estimated value of credit exposure as at such date.
The risk parameters based on the rating models are designed for calculation of the expected losses resulted from credit risk.
The value of expected loss is one of the significant assessment criteria taken into consideration by the decision-making bodies in the course of the crediting process. In particular, this value is compared to the requested margin level.
The level of minimum margins for given products or client segments is determined based upon risk analysis, taking into consideration the value of risk parameters assessed.
The client and transaction rating, as well as other credit risk parameters hold a significant role in the Credit Risk Management Information System. For each rating model, the credit risk reports provide information on the comparison between the realized parameters and the theoretical values for each rating class.
Credit risk reports are generated on a monthly basis, with their scope varying depending upon the recipient of the report (the higher the management level, the more aggregated the information presented). Credit risk reports are being used in the credit risk management process.
For internal purposes, within the Group the following rating models are used, developed in accordance with provisions of Regulation (EU) no 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013 on prudential requirements for credit institutions and investment firms:
1) For the retail clients, the Group uses the following models applicable for:
micro-enterprises,

Bank Pekao S.A.
private individuals, dividing clients into:
o mortgage loans (secured by mortgage)
o consumer loans (consumer),
o credit cards,
o renewable limits.
2) For the corporate clients, the Group uses rating models dividing clients into:
corporate clients (corporations),
small and medium enterprises (SME),
local government units.
3) For the corporate clients, Pekao Bank Hipoteczny S.A. uses the SOP rating model (Point Rating System) under the Internal Ratings Based Approach, which involves the use of supervisory classes in the process of assigning risk weights.
4) For specialized lending the Group uses a slotting criteria approach to the Internal Ratings Based Approach, which consists of the use of supervisory classes in the process of assigning risk weights.
In 2022, the Group started the process of adjusting the rating scale for internal rating models in line with the rating scale applicable to external ratings - called Master scale.
The masters scale is presented in the table below:

At the end of 2023, the rating models within the corporate client / enterprise segment and the private individuals within retail clients segment were mapped to the Masterscale.
The following exposure types are not covered by internal rating models:
1) retail exposures immaterial in terms of size and perceived risk profile:
overdrafts,
exposures related to the Building Society (Kasa Mieszkaniowa) unit,
other loans.
2) corporate clients:
exposures to stock exchanges and other financial intermediators,
exposures to insurance companies,
project financing,
purchased receivables,
exposures to investment funds,
exposures to leasing companies and financial holding companies,
other loans immaterial in terms of size and perceived risk profile.
3) exposures to regional governments and local authorities which are not treated as exposures to central governments, for which the number of significant counterparties is limited.

Consolidated Financial Statements of Bank Pekao S.A. Group for the year ended on 31 December 2023 (in PLN million )
Client/transaction rating and credit risk decision-making level
Decision-making level connected with transaction approval is directly dependent upon the client’s rating.
Decision-making entitlement limits are associated with the position held, determined in accordance with the Bank’s organizational structure. The limits are determined taking the following matters into consideration:
the Bank’s total exposure to a client, including the amount of the requested transaction,
type of a client,
commitments of persons and entities associated with the client.
Validation of rating models
The internal validation of models and risk parameter assessments is focused on the quality assessment of risk models and the accuracy and stability of parameter assessments, applied by the Bank. Validation is carried out at the level of each risk model, although the Bank may apply several models for each class of exposures.
Moreover, the internal audit unit is obligated to review the Bank’s rating systems and their functionality at least once a year. In particular, the internal audit unit reviews the scope of operations of credit division and estimations of risk parameters.

The description of the model for impairment allowance
The Group has recognized impairment allowance in accordance with the IRFS 9. IFRS 9 assumes the calculation of impairment losses based on expected credit losses and taking into account forecasts and expected future economic conditions in the context of credit risk exposure assessment.
Expected credit loss model
Expected credit loss model applies to financial assets classified, in accordance with the IFRS 9, as financial assets at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income, with the exception of equity instruments (except for equity instruments), as well as off-balance sheet commitments.
Expected credit loss model in accordance with IFRS 9 is based on the allocation of exposure to one of the three stages, depending on credit quality changes compared to the initial recognition of assets in the accounting records. How to calculate the impairment loss depends on the stage.
STAGE
CLASSIFICATION CRITERION TO THE STAGE
THE METHOD OF CALCULATING THE IMPAIRMENT ALLOWANCE
Stage 1
Exposures for which no significant increase in credit risk has been identified since the initial recognition until the balance sheet date and no impairment was identified
12-month expected credit losses
Stage 2
Exposures for which a significant increase in credit risk has been identified since the initial recognition until the balance sheet date and no impairment was identified
Stage 3
Exposures for which impairment has been identified
Lifetime expected credit losses
In addition, financial assets that were classified as POCI at the time of initial recognition are treated as POCI (i.e. purchased or originated credit-impaired) in all subsequent periods until they are derecognised. This rule applies even if, in the meantime, the asset has been healed. In other words, assets once recognized as POCI remain in this status regardless of future changes in estimates of their cash flows.
In the case of instruments with the POCI status, life-time expected credit losses are recognized throughout the lifetime of these instruments.
Calculation of expected credit losses
For the purpose of calculating the credit loss in accordance with IFRS 9, the Group compares cash flows that it should receive pursuant to the agreement with the borrower and flows estimated by the Group that it expects to receive. The difference is discounted using the effective interest rate.
Expected credit losses are determined in the contractual maturity period with the exception of products meeting the criteria of IFRS 9 para. 5.5.20, for which the Group determines the expected losses in the period in which it is exposed to credit risk (ie in the economic maturity).

Methodology for calculating group parameters - PD, RR and EAD.
The lifetime ECL calculation requires the use of long-term risk parameters.
Multi-year PD parameters are an assessment of the probability of a default event in the next annual intervals in the lifetime horizon. The long-term PD curve for a given exposure depends on the current value of the 12M PD parameter (and the appropriate rating class) determined based on the internal PD models of the Group. In the estimation, the Group:
estimates unbiased PD parameters without taking into account additional margins of conservatism (IFRS 9, paragraph 5.5.17 (a)),
takes into account current and forecasted macroeconomic conditions (IFRS 9, paragraph 5.5.17 (c)).
The calculation of expected recovery rates (RR) is based on the ‘pool’ model, in which, within homogeneous groups, average monthly recoveries are calculated conditionally against the months since default (MSD). Homogeneous groups of accounts were separated on the basis of the following characteristics:
the type of a borrower,
product type,
ranges of the LTV parameter (for mortgages and housing loans) or credit amount (for chosen products).
As part of defined homogeneous groups, average monthly recovery rates are calculated, which consist of repayments and recoveries resulting from both the secured part and the unsecured exposure, weighted by the value of outstanding capital observed at the beginning of a given MSD.
For products for which a repayment schedule is available, the Group sets the exposure value at the moment of default (EAD, Exposure at Default) and principal at the moment of default (PAD, Principal at Default) in the lifetime (ie for future repayments) based on contractual payment schedules and taking into account the following effects:
the effect of arrears on principal and interest installments related to the expected non-payment of the last installments prior to the occurrence of the default,
the effect of arrears of payments (principal and interest) on the date of calculation of the provision,
the effect of settlement of the EIR adjustment over time.
For products for which a repayment schedule is not available, the Group sets the long-term EAD and PAD using the CCF (Credit Conversion Factor) and parameters . CCF parameters vary depending on the portfolio and the time horizon of EAD /
PAD estimation.
For exposures for which it is not possible to determine risk parameters based on internal models, the Group adopts an approach based on using parameters from other portfolios with similar characteristics.
The models and parameters used to calculate impairment allowance are periodically validated.
Changes in the methodology of calculation an expected credit losses introduced in 2023
In 2023, the Group did not change its approach to calculating an expected credit losses.
In particular, compared to the end of 2022, the Bank did not introduce any significant changes in forecasting the quality of the portfolio and continues to use trend analyzes for retail portfolios and quantitative/expert analysis for other portfolios. Due to the instability of internal and external conditions, the probability of materialization of the negative scenario is still high (50%).
Keeping the solution worked out in 2022, the Group selects customers operating in higher-risk industries and increases PD on them by 100%. As a result, the Group maintains an increased level of expected credit losses in the amount of PLN 216 million for the portfolio of performing loans with a total gross carrying amount of PLN 18 797 million. The analysis of industries took into account the indirect impact of the armed conflict in Ukraine, the marked deceleration in domestic demand and investment and the burden of interest costs resulting from loans and advances (due to the high level of NBP interest rates). Adjusted industries with the largest share in the Bank's loan portfolio are, by PKD division, as follows: 68 activities related to real estate market services, 49 land transport and pipeline transport, 41 construction works for the erection of buildings, 23 manufacture of other non-metallic mineral products, 16 production of products from wood, cork, straw (except furniture).

Sensitivity analysis of ECL in established changes of PD and RR/LGD parameters
The tables below present the results of the ECL sensitivity analysis for the assumed changes in PD and RR/LGD parameters carried out separately for exposures subject to individual and group analysis. For the exposures included in the Bank analysis, the PD and recovery rate (1-RR=LGD) increase and decrease by 1% and 5% scenario were presented compared to the values used to calculate the expected credit loss as of date 31 December 2023. For the exposures analyzed individually, the estimated impact is presented as a reduction of recoveries from collaterals included in the debt collection scenario by 10%.

Exposures with low credit risk
According to par. 5.5.10 IFRS 9 exposures that are considered as low risk credit exposures at the reporting date may remain in Stage 1, regardless of the scale of the relative credit deterioration from the initial recognition. According to par. B.5.5.22 of IFRS 9, the credit risk of a financial instrument is considered low when:
the financial instrument has a low risk of default,
the borrower has a strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow obligations in the near term,
adverse changes in the economic and business conditions in the long term may, but will not necessarily, reduce the ability of the borrower to fulfil its contractual cash flow obligations.
The Group applies a low credit risk criterion for three portfolios: exposures to banks, exposures to local government units and exposures to the State Treasury and the National Bank of Poland.
Classification criteria to Stage 2
Financial assets for which at the balance sheet date the Group will identify a significant increase in credit risk from the initial recognition are classified in Stage 2. The Group recognizes that for a given asset a significant increase in credit risk has been identified if a quantitative or qualitative criterion is met, in particular if contractual payments are more than 30 days past due, where the occurrence of a given criterion is verified at the exposure level.
Quantitative criteria
Taking into account the requirements of the standard, the Group defined two basic characteristics of the quantitative model:
the measure on the basis of which risk change assessment is made,
the materiality threshold of the measure, above which the Bank recognizes that there has been a significant increase in credit risk.
The measure, on the basis of which risk change assessment is made, was set by the Group as the ratio of the annual average :
current credit risk assessment defined as lifetime PD in the horizon from the reporting date to the maturity date determined on the basis of the characteristics effective as at the reporting date,
the original credit risk assessment defined as lifetime PD in the period from the reporting date to the maturity date determined on the basis of the characteristics applicable as at the date of initial recognition.
The assessment of significance of credit risk deterioration is carried out by comparing the observed measure with the threshold above which the Group considers that a significant deterioration in credit risk occurred.

This threshold is 2 increased by buffer. Buffer calibration is performed separately for each homogeneous group of portfolios modeled to correspond to the Group's risk appetite in the period at the time of origination the transaction.
The absolute quantitative criterion for classification Stage 2 is the value of one-year PD determined using scoring / rating the annual average than approximately 10%. A 25% PD therefore by definition means a significant increase in credit risk.
The bank additionally applies benchmarking of the level of loans classified in Stage 2 based on NBP data and the average long-term DR (default rate) of a given portfolio. If the share of Stage 2 in the Bank is lower than the long-term average for the polish banking sector in a given portfolio (or three times DR), then the Bank classifies exposures into the Stage 2 until the average is reached, where the credits are moved in the order corresponding to their distance from Stage 2 in based on the other 2 criteria mentioned before.
Each of the three criteria described is applied separately.
The tables below present the arithmetic average (*) values of the risk change measure as at 31 December 2023 and 31 December 2022 determined for the most significant portfolios covered by the quantitative model.

(*) The measure on the basis of which the risk change is assessed is determined by the Bank as the ratio of:
current credit risk assessment defined as lifetime PD in the horizon from the reporting date to the maturity date, determined on the basis of the characteristics applicable as at the reporting date,
original credit risk assessment defined as lifetime PD in the period from the reporting date to the maturity date, determined on the basis of the characteristics valid at the date of initial recognition
Qualitative criteria
As a result of the monitoring process carried out by the Group, the qualitative criteria for the allocation to Stage 2 are identified, such as:
the amount of arrears simultaneously above the set materiality threshold (PLN 400 for retail exposures and PLN 2 000 for non-retail exposures) and the relative threshold of 1% for over 30 days up to 90 days inclusive,
a delay in repayment over 90 days, below thresholds of materiality,
occurrence of forbearance status,
exposure is on the Watchlist.
In addition to the above, for individual monitoring the Group has defined a number of specific quality criteria for various types of portfolios, such as, inter alia, changes in the internal rating, changes in supervisory classes for selected segments (eg specialized financing), warning signals identified in the monitoring system and credit risk management or the results of individual monitoring.
In the case of granting credit holidays under the Act on crowdfunding for business ventures and assistance to borrowers of 14 July 2022, the Group applies an approach consistent with regulatory guidelines in this regard. Granting credit holidays does not result in automatic reclassification to Stage 2. However, such reclassification is performed if the deterioration of credit risk is affected by additional factors indicating the debtor's problems. During the credit holidays, the Group suspends the counting of overdue days.
Classification criteria to Stage 3
Financial assets for which at the balance sheet date the Group has identified occurrences of the default event are classified in Stage 3.
The Group recognizes that for a given asset a default was identified if at least one of the following occurred:
amount of arrears simultaneously above the set materiality threshold (PLN 400 for retail exposures and PLN 2 000 for non-retail exposures) and the relative threshold of 1% for over 90 days,
exposure during the restructuring process,

Consolidated Financial Statements of Bank Pekao S.A. Group for the year ended on 31 December 2023 (in PLN million )
other qualitative impairment trigger.
For SME and corporate segments, default is identified at the customer level, whereas for the retail segment at the customer/product group level. The criterion of days and amounts of delays is also defined at the level of identification.
The Group applies a six-month quarantine period effective from the moment all defaults cease to exist.
At the end of 2023, the Group additionally included CHF mortgage loans in Stage 3 in accordance with the principles presented in the Note 46.3.
Forecast of risk parameters
Based on significant inertia of retail portfolios, a trend analysis of historical default rates have been applied. Based on the history of realized default rates for portfolios of retail exposures, trends were estimated, which were then used for future projections. For non-retail portfolios projections are based on expert judgment of the economic conditions applied to the long term average through the cycle parameters. The analysis for non-retail portfolios consists of the following steps: an expert evaluation of the forecasted economic conditions based on Group’s projections and studies carried out by the Central Statistical Office in Poland (GUS), translation of this evaluation onto quantitative measure at the scale 0-100% indicating the phase of the economic cycle (e.g. 75% represents situation where in the past 75% of observation situation is better and in 25% is worse), finally getting the corresponding quantile of the historical default rates and use of it as the forecast for first year. For the second year forecast assumes the linear convergence to average through the cycle parameters which is assumed to take place in the fifth year (which mirrors few years long credit cycles).
Tables below show 12-month PD forecasts used in the calculation of expected credit losses in baseline scenario. For retail portfolios the parameters are weighted with the gross carrying amount limited to PLN 2 million at the loan level and at the customer level for SME loans. For non-retail, the parameters are weighted with the gross carrying amount limited to PLN 20 million at the client level. Forecasts in the baseline, upward and downward scenarios include the PD mark-up for higher-risk industries described in the Expected credit loss model section.

Scenarios definition
The PD parameters presented in the previous section refer to the baseline scenario of portfolio quality development. They reflect the assumption of slow exit from economic slowdown amid persistent high inflation and interest rates (actual GDP growth of 0,5%, average annual inflation of about 10% and WIBOR 3M at the end of the year over 5,5%). The assumptions for the remaining scenarios and the weights assigned to them are presented below.
In the applied approach the Group used 3 scenario of evolution of quality of the portfolio: baseline (presented above), upward (assuming positive change in the credit quality of the portfolio in the next years compared to the baseline) and downward (assuming negative change in the credit quality of the portfolio in the next years compared to the baseline). The baseline scenario has the probability of occurrence of 45%, upward of 5% and downward of 50%. High probability of downward scenario reflects Group’s expert judgment of the possibility of realization of some risks the economy of Poland faces and their significant impact on credit portfolio with regard to:
macroeconomic data, which show the strongest in 15 years, excluding the period of the COVID-19 pandemic, economic slowdown (GDP, inflation, producer inflation, interest rates),
business climate surveys that confirm the difficult, expected economic situation (PMI, NBP, GUS),
record numbers of company restructurings and consumer bankruptcies,
geopolitical threats.
Individually the risk of these scenarios is equal or below 50% in the Group’s view but their number implies high risk of occurrence of one of them.

The diversified nature of the observed threats and the breakdown of the dependencies between the parameters of the quality of the loan portfolio and the macroeconomic variables means that it is impossible to formulate scenarios in the form of extreme changes in macroeconomic factors. Therefore, the Group applied an alternative approach in which the PD change scenarios are determined based on the historical variability of the DR. The downward scenario is assigned values corresponding to the high past observations, and similarly to the upward scenario, the values corresponding to the low past observations are assigned. This translates into the following 12-month PD forecasts.

The Group also carried out analysis confirming the lack of dependence of the recovery rates for non-performing exposures (RR parameter) on the economic situation. Therefore, the same recovery rates are assumed in each of the scenarios.
The subsidiaries of the Bank determine expected credit losses according to IFRS 9. Due to their characteristics and portfolios the scenarios used in the calculation of expected credit losses is not fully aligned.
Sensitivity analysis regarding the forecast of the macroeconomic situation
The Group estimates probability weighted expected credit losses taking into account 3 macro-economic scenarios: baseline (occurring with a probability of 45%), upward (assuming positive change of the quality of the portfolio in the next years compared to the baseline, occurring with a probability of 5%) and downward (assuming worsening of the quality of the portfolio in the next years compared to the baseline that could occur with a probability of 50%).
The changes in expected credit losses presented in the table below (in PLN millions) for exposures without impairment were designated as the difference between the expected credit losses calculated for a specific macroeconomic scenario and expected credit losses calculated taking into account all scenarios macroeconomic factors weighted with the probability of their realization (in accordance with IFRS 9).

Credit risk mitigation methods
Group has established specific policies with regard to collateral accepted to secure loans and guarantees. This policy is reflected under internal rules and regulations, which are based on supervision rules, specified in Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013 on prudential requirements for credit institutions and investment firms.
The most frequently used types of collateral for credits and loans, accepted in compliance with the relevant policy of Group are as follows
COLLATERAL
COLLATERAL VALUATION PRINCIPLES
MORTGAGES
commercial
residential
Collateral value is defined as the fair market value endorsed by a real estate expert. Other evidenced sources of valuation are acceptable, e.g. binding purchase offer, value dependent on the stage of tendering procedure, etc.
REGISTERED PLEDGE/ ASSIGNMENT:
inventories
The value is defined basing on well evidenced sources e.g. amount derived from pledge agreement, amount disclosed in last financial statements, insurance policy, stock exchange quotations, the value disclosed through foreclosure procedure supported with evidence e.g. prepared by bailiff/receiver.
machines and appliances
The value is defined as expert appraisal or present value determined based on other, sound sources, such as current purchase offer, register of debtor’s non-current assets, value evidenced by bailiff or court receiver, etc.
Vehicles
The value is defined based on available tables (e.g. from insurance companies) proving the car value depending on its producer, age, initial price, or other reliable sources e.g. value stated in the insurance policy.
other
The value is defined upon individually. The valuation should result from reliable sources.
securities and cash
The value is defined upon individually estimated fair market value. Recovery rate shall be assessed prudently reflecting the securities price volatility.
TRANSFER OF RECEIVABLES
from clients with investment rating assigned by independent rating agency or by internal rating system of the Bank
The value is defined upon individually assessed claims’ amount.
from other counterparties
The value is defined upon individually assessed claim’s amount.
GUARANTIES/SURETIES (INCL. RAFTS)/ACCESSION TO DEBT
from banks and the State Treasury
Up to the guaranteed amount.
from other counterparties enjoying good financial standing, particularly when confirmed by investment rating, assigned by an independent rating agency or by the internal rating system of the Bank
The value is defined upon individually assessed claim’s amount.
from other counterparties
Individually assessed fair market value.

Consolidated Financial Statements of Bank Pekao S.A. Group for the year ended on 31 December 2023 (in PLN million )
The financial effect of pledged collaterals for exposure portfolio with recognized impairment defined individually amounts to PLN 524 million as at 31 December 2023 (PLN 803 millionas at 31 December 2022). The level of required impairment allowances for the portfolio would increase by this amount, if the discounted cash flows from collateral were not taken into account during estimation.
The Group analyzes the concentration within LtV levels (the ratio of debt to the value of collateral), which is particularly important in the case of mortgage loans to individual clients.
The structure of mortgage loans to individual clients according to the LtV level is presented below:

c) Breakdown by industrial sectors.
In order to mitigate credit risk associated with excessive sector concentration the Bank sets up a system for shaping the sectoral structure of credit exposure. Every year within credit risk policy the Bank defines sector limits for particular sectors of economy. These limits are subject to ongoing monitoring. The system applies to credit exposure in particular types of business activity according to the classification based on the Polish Classification of Economic Activities (Polska Klasyfikacja Działalności – PKD).
Concentration limits are set based on the Bank’s current credit exposure and risk assessment of each sector. Periodic monitoring of the Bank’s exposure allows for ongoing identification of the sectors in which the concentration of sector risk may be too excessive. In such cases, an analysis of the economic situation of the sector is performed including both the current and forecast trends and an assessment of quality of the current exposure to that sector. These measures enable the Bank to formulate the activities to reduce sector concentration risk and ongoing adaptation of the Bank’s credit risk policy to a changing environment.

Restructured exposures
The Group considers a restructured exposure the exposure whose repayment terms have been changed during the term of the liability to the debtor who experiences or is likely to experience financial difficulties. The change of contractual conditions includes restructuring measures specified by the Group, in particular:
the extension of initial maturity (due) date (in case of additional appendix to the contract) or signing a restructuring contract (in case of full past-due debt), in particular as a result of constant reduction of installments amount,
the modification of the contract’s terms or conditions which results in lower interests and/or principal payments to eliminate the past-due debt,
the refinancing by the other loan in the Group.
A restructured exposure that has been:
classified as non-performing due to restructuring measures, or
classified as non-performing prior to commencement of forbearance measures, or
transferred from the performing to non-performing exposure class, including as a result of more than 30 days past due for a restructured exposure in a conditional period,
it is classified as a forborne non-performing exposure.
The classification as forborne exposure shall be discontinued when all the following conditions are met:
the contract is considered as a performing exposure,
Bank Pekao S.A.
142
Consolidated Financial Statements of Bank Pekao S.A. Group for the year ended on 31 December 2023 (in PLN million )
a minimum 2 year probation period has passed from the date the forborne exposure was considered as performing,
none of the exposures to the debtor is at least 30 days past-due at the end of the probation period of forborne exposure.
If conditions, referred above, are not fullfiled at the end of the probation period, exposures are classified respectively as performing or non-performing forborne exposures in the probation period untill all these conditions are met. The fullfilment of the conditions is assesed at least on a quarterly basis.
Exposure is classified as restructuring exposure only if the modification of the contractual terms is related to the financial difficulties of the borrower.
The restructuring exposure agreements are monitored for fulfillment of the obligations contained in the agreement.
The decision to apply the restructuring exposure measure is undertaken by the authorized Unit within the credit application process.
The accounting policies in respect to the evaluation and the provisioning of the forborne exposures generally follow the principles in line with the provisions of IFRS 9.
In the case of granting loan holidays, the Group applies an approach consistent with regulatory guidelines in this regard. Granting loan holidays does not automatically identify restructuring exposure (forborne exposures).

Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities
The disclosures in the tables below include financial assets and financial liabilities that are subject to an enforceable master netting agreements or similar agreements, irrespective of whether they are offset in the statement of financial position.
The netting agreements concluded by the Group are:
ISDA agreements and similar master netting agreements on derivatives,
GMRA agreements on repo and reverse-repo transactions.
The netting agreements do not meet the criteria for offsetting in the statement of financial position. This is because they create for the parties to the agreement a right of set-off of recognized amounts that is enforceable only following an event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the one of the counterparty. At the balance, day there were no cases of offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities for these netting agreements.
The Group receives and gives collateral in the form of cash and marketable securities in respect of the derivatives transactions.
Such collateral is subject to standard industry terms. The collateral in the form of cash stems from an ISDA Credit Support Annex (CSA).

46.3. Legal risk regarding foreign currency mortgage loans in CHF
Adopted accounting principles
The Group recognizes that the legal risk related to the outstanding portfolio of foreign currency mortgage loans in CHF as at 31 December 2023 affects the expected cash flows from loan agreements of this portfolio and the level of expected credit loss within the meaning of IFRS 9 that can be incurred by the Group.
In connection with the above, the credit risk of the portfolio of foreign currency mortgage loans in CHF is assessed by the Bank, taking into account the legal risk associated with this portfolio, which materializes in the form of court disputes and out-of-court settlements concluded with borrowers.
Due to unfavorable judgments, resulting in a significant probability of losing the case, as at 31 December 2023 the Bank assumed that loans subject to legal dispute and loans for which the probability that the client will file a lawsuit or reach a settlement with the Bank is estimated at higher level than 60% are classified as Stage 3. Other loans (not meeting the above criterion) were classified to Stage 2.
As a result of the above, in the case of the part of the provision relating to (allocated to) an active loan agreement, it is recognized first as an element of the impairment allowance on the loan exposure. However, any surplus of this provision over the net value of the loan exposure is presented as an element of provisions in the ‘Provisions’ line in accordance with IAS 37.
With regard to the repaid portfolio of foreign currency mortgage loans in CHF, the Group applies IAS 37 and recognizes provisions allocated to this part of the portfolio under ‘Provisions’ and ‘Other operating expenses’, which were presented in Note 36 and Note 13, respectively.
At the same time, part of the provision concerns additional costs related to the possible loss of a court dispute (i.e. interest for delay and costs of legal representation) due to the fact that they do not result from the loan agreement are recognized in accordance with IAS 37 as an element of the ‘Provisions’ (regardless of whether this estimate concerns an active loan agreement or a repaid loan).

Portfolio characteristics
Bank Pekao S.A. has not granted loans in CHF to the public since 2003. Almost the entire current portfolio of loans in CHF for individuals was taken over by Bank Pekao S.A. in the process of partial division of Bank BPH S.A. (loans granted before August 2006).
As at 31 December 2023, the Group had a portfolio of foreign currency mortgage loans in CHF with a total gross carrying amount of PLN 2 086 million (i.e. CHF 445 million) compared to PLN 2 566 million (i.e. CHF 538.2 million) as at 31 December 2022.

As of 31 December 2023 t he average LTV for CHF loans to individuals granted by the Group amounted to 28.7% ( 33.3 % as at 31 December 2022) , with an average LTV for the whole portfolio of mortgage loans of 47.8% ( 48.3% as at 31 December 2022).
Court proceedings related to foreign currency mortgage loans in CHF
In 2019, the Court of Justice of the European Union (hereinafter the ‘CJEU’) issued a ruling on a CHF-indexed loan granted by another bank, in which it interpreted the provisions of Council Directive 93/13 / EEC of 5 April 1993 on unfair terms in consumer loans based on the CHF indexed loan agreement. The CJEU indicated the consequences of recognizing the possible abusiveness of conversion clauses by the domestic court, without examining the possible abusiveness of contractual provisions at all. The CJEU did not prejudge that in the event that a domestic court finds possible abusiveness, the court should automatically declare the entire contract invalid. The assessment in this respect remains to be decided by the national court, but the CJEU has not ruled out the possibility of filling the gap resulting from the abusive nature of conversion clauses by means of domestic regulations.
However, subsequent rulings of the CJEU exclude the admissibility of filling the gap after eliminating the prohibited provision under national law, as a result of which the courts of the countries recognize loan agreements as unenforceable after the removal of the abusive provision (conversion clause) and consider that the agreement cannot be enforced, as a result of which the courts declare the loan agreement invalid.
Bank Pekao S.A.

Consolidated Financial Statements of Bank Pekao S.A. Group for the year ended on 31 December 2023 (in PLN million )
The rulings of the CJEU constitutes interpretative guidelines for above-mentioned Directive for Polish courts. A t the same time, it can be rightly said that the unfavorable position has become permanent, which results in the issuance of judgments by the courts declaring the invalidity of loan agreements and ordering borrowers to return the loan installments paid to the Bank as an undue benefit.
To date, no resolution has been adopted by the full composition of the Civil Chamber of the Supreme Court regarding the issues covered by the request of the First President of the Supreme Court, namely the answers to the following questions:
1) whether the abusive provisions relating to the method of determining the currency rate in an indexed or denominated loan agreement can be replaced by provisions of civil or customary law,
2) if it is impossible to establish a binding exchange rate for a foreign currency in a denominated loan agreement, the agreement may bind the parties in the remaining scope,
3) if it is impossible to establish a binding exchange rate for a foreign currency in the loan agreement, the agreement may bind the parties in the remaining scope,
4) whether the balance theory or the theory of two conditions will apply in the event of cancellation of the loan agreement,
5) which is the moment to start the limitation period in the event that the bank makes a claim against the borrower for the repayment of the loan,
6) whether it is possible for banks and borrowers to receive remuneration for using the funds.
In the Group's opinion, the Supreme Court's ruling is valid only up to question number 6), insofar as it concerns not so much the remuneration but the indexation of the amount corresponding to the amount of the loan capital paid. The remaining issues have already been resolved in preliminary rulings issued by the CJEU. In addition, it should be noted that it is not certain whether the Civil Chamber will adopt a resolution on this questions at all.
On 7 May 2021, a resolution was adopted by the Supreme Court composed of seven judges, after the resolution of the legal issue in the case III CZP 6/21 in the Civil Chamber, indicating that:
a prohibited contractual provision (Art.385 (1) § 1 of the Civil Code) is from the outset, by operation of law, ineffective in favor of the consumer, who may subsequently give informed and free consent to this provision and thus restore its effectiveness retroactively;
if the loan agreement cannot be binding without an ineffective provision, the consumer and the lender are entitled to separate claims for the reimbursement of cash benefits provided in the performance of the agreement (Art. 410 § 1 in conjunction with Art. 405 of the Civil Code). The lender may request the return of the benefit from the moment the loan agreement becomes permanently ineffective.
The resolution in question was given the force of a legal principle, therefore in the scope of resolved issues, it is binding in other cases examined by common courts as well as by the Supreme Court.
Currently, a line of jurisprudence unfavorable for the Group has been developed, consisting in invalidating agreements and adjudicating repayment of installments repaid by borrowers.
In addition, there is a trend on the market related to the referral by common courts of inquiries regarding various types of doubts arising to the Supreme Court, as well as to the CJEU, which may also affect the future directions of judicial decisions. An example of such an important ruling is the judgment of the CJEU of 8 September 2022 issued in joined cases C-80/21 to C- 82/21, in which the CJEU replied to the questions referred for a preliminary ruling by the District Court for Warszawa Srodmiescie in Warsaw in the CHF case. The CJEU stated:
1) The national court may not find that the entire contract term is unfair, but only its element which renders it unfair, if such removal would amount to changing the content of the term which would affect its essence. This means that, in principle, the national court is confined to finding that a whole contract term is unfair.
2) If a national court finds that a contract term is unfair, with the result that the entire contract may continue in force despite the exclusion of the unfair terms, the national court cannot replace these terms with a national provision of an optional nature. This means that in such a case the national court may not apply the provisions of the Civil Code concerning the conversion of installments with the average exchange rate of the National Bank of Poland.
3) The national court, after finding that a contract term is unfair, is not entitled to amend the content of that term in order to maintain the validity of the contract, which cannot remain in force after removal of the term, if the relevant consumer has been informed of the consequences of nullity of the contract and has agreed to the consequences of this nullity. This means that if the consumer has agreed to the consequences of the nullity of the contract (being informed of them), the national court may not, by ruling, change the content of such a condition, but must declare nullity.
4) The run of the 10-year limitation period for the consumer's claim for reimbursement of the paid installments may not start from the moment of performance of each service in the performance of the contract (repayment of each installment), even if the consumer was not able to independently assess the unfairness of a contract term or did not become aware of unfair nature of this condition and without taking into account that the loan agreement provided for a much longer (30-year) repayment period. This means that the 10-year limitation period for the consumer's claim for repayment of installments does not start from the date of repayment of each installment. In practice, it should be assumed that no consumer claims for reimbursement of installments paid have expired.

On 15 June 2023, the CJEU introduced a judgment in case C-520/21, in which it settled the question referred for a preliminary ruling by the District Court for Warsaw - Srodmiescie in Warsaw, stated that in the context of recognizing a mortgage loan agreement as invalid in its entirety due to the fact that it cannot continue to apply after removing the unfair terms from it, Art. 6 sec. 1 and art. 7 sec. 1 of Council Directive 93/13/EEC of 5 April 1993 on unfair terms in consumer contracts should be interpreted as follows:
they do not preclude a judicial interpretation of national law according to which the consumer is entitled to claim compensation from the credit institution beyond the reimbursement of the monthly installments and costs paid for the performance of that contract and the payment of statutory interest for late payment from the date of the request for payment, provided respect the objectives of Directive 93/13 and the principle of proportionality, and
they preclude a judicial interpretation of national law according to which a credit institution is entitled to demand compensation from the consumer beyond the reimbursement of the capital paid for the performance of that contract and the payment of statutory interest for late payment from the date of the demand for payment
The judgment in question closed the way for the banks to pursue the so-called remuneration for the use of capital, while as regards consumer claims against banks, the CJEU referred to national law and emphasized that it is for the referring court to assess, in the light of all the circumstances of the dispute, whether the inclusion of such consumer claims complies with the principle of proportionality. As of today, we are not aware of such claims by borrowers, and thus their legal basis, scope or nature.
On 7 December 2023, the CJEU issued a judgment in case C-140/22, which states that the possibility of exercising rights by a consumer cannot be made conditional on the consumer's submission to the court of consent to the maintenance of an unfair contract term, consent to invalidity contract and a statement that the consumer is aware of the consequences of the invalidity of the contract and that when settling the invalidity of the contract, banks cannot retain capital interest accrued in the course of performing the contract, thus stating that banks cannot demand compensation from the consumer that goes beyond the return of the paid capital.
On 11 December 2023, the CJEU issued a decision in case C-756/22, in which it ruled that Art. 6 section 1 and art. 7 section 1 of Directive 93/13 must be interpreted as meaning that in the context of declaring a mortgage loan agreement concluded with a consumer by a banking institution to be invalid in its entirety because that agreement contains unfair terms without which it cannot continue to be in force, precludes a judicial interpretation of the law of a Member State according to which that institution is entitled to demand from that consumer the repayment of sums other than the capital paid for the performance of that contract and statutory interest for delay from the time of the request for payment. The above ruling may in the future result in banks being able to claim from Swiss franc borrowers only the return of the loan capital along with statutory interest for delay from the moment of payment demand, without remuneration for the use of capital or capital indexation.
On 14 December 2023, the CJEU issued a judgment stating that Art. 6 section 1 and art. 7 section 1 of Directive 93/13, in connection with the principle of effectiveness, must be interpreted as precluding a judicial interpretation of national law according to which the limitation period for an entrepreneur's claims arising from the invalidity of a mortgage loan contract begins to run only from the date on which the contract becomes permanently ineffective and that they preclude a judicial interpretation of national law according to which the submission of an objection by the entrepreneur to the retention will from that moment result in the consumer losing the possibility of claiming interest for the delay. Moreover, the CJEU ruled that a credit institution is not obliged to examine whether a consumer who is a party to a loan agreement is aware of the consequences of the invalidity of the agreement.
The judgments of the CJEU regarding the commencement of the limitation period for banks' restitution claims do not cause any changes in the Group's approach to this type of cases, due to the unclear jurisprudence of national courts, the Group assumes the earliest possible date for the commencement of the limitation period, which is the submission by the borrower of a declaration containing a demand related to the allegation that the contract was invalid. The above December rulings may change the approach of courts to awarding interest from banks for delays with a date earlier than the date of submission of the consumer's declaration of consent to the invalidity of the contract and the effects of this invalidity, and may also unify the approach to the issue of whether filing an allegation of retention by a credit institution causes interruption and charging of interest to the customer, which, if such a practice is established before common courts, may be unfavorable for banks.
Until 31 December 2023, 5.8 thousand individual court cases were pending against the Group regarding foreign currency mortgage loans in CHF ( including 1 thousand regarding contracts repaid as at the date of filing the lawsuit ), which were granted in previous years, with the total value of the claim in the amount of PLN 1 938 million (as at 31 December 2022, the number of cases was 2.9 thousand, and the corresponding value of the dispute is PLN 916 million). The main cause of the dispute, as indicated by the plaintiffs, concerns the questioning of the provisions of the loan agreement with regard to the Group's application of conversion rates based on the Bank’s exchange rate Table and results in claims regarding the partial or complete invalidity of the loan agreements. During the 12- month period ended on31 December 2023, the Group received 1 303 unfavorable court judgments in cases brought by borrowers, including 197 final judgments and 40 favorable court judgments, including 3 final judgments (in 2022: 578 unfavorable court judgments, including 95 final judgments stating the invalidity of the

loan agreement and 24 favorable court judgments, including 5 final judgments dismissing the claim for declaring the invalidity of the loan agreement and a claim for payment in connection with the invalidity of the loan agreement).
Court settlement program
On 2 October 2023, the Bank started offering out-of-court settlements under the name “2% safe settlement. The program applies to borrowers who as of 31 March 2023 had an active mortgage loan agreement denominated in CHF, including those in legal dispute with the Bank.
As part of the settlement, a new debt balance is determined, expressed in PLN and calculated as the loan amount paid by the Bank, increased by contractual interest calculated at a fixed interest rate of 2% per annum and reduced by all repayments made by the borrower until the settlement is concluded. The amount of debt remaining after the settlement bears interest at a fixed interest rate of 2% per annum for the first 60 months, and thereafter in accordance with the Bank's current offer. If the new debt balance turns out to be negative (i.e. there is an overpayment), the Bank refunds the overpaid amount to the borrower.
The Bank successively sends settlement offers to subsequent groups of borrowers covered by the program, starting with the oldest loans granted. As of 31 December 2023, approximately half of the borrowers responded to the settlement offer received, of which approximately 70% (1.5 thousand customers) accepted the Bank's proposal. The program is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2024.
Provision related to foreign currency mortgage loans in CHF - assumptions and calculation methodology
The calculation of the provision performed by the Group as at 31 December 2023 was based on estimating the expected loss of the Bank resulting from the possible materialization of the legal risk of mortgage loans in CHF. The estimate made by the Bank includes the following key elements:
1) forecast of disputes
The Group updated the forecast of the expected number of future lawsuits using statistical methods and taking into account the observed trends in the scale of incoming lawsuits, as well as issued certificates on the history of loan repayments (which are a leading indicator in relation to future lawsuits).
According to the opinion of an external law firm, for index-linked loans originally granted by Bank Pekao S.A., the Bank assesses the probability of the contractual provisions being deemed abusive as negligible, as the indexation clause used was based on the average NBP exchange rate and not the Bank's exchange rate table. As a result, the Group does not expect an influx of lawsuits for such agreements in the future, and for existing lawsuits (9 pieces) it does not create an individual provision, At the same time, for agreements repaid 10 years ago or earlier (i.e. inactive at the end of 2013), the Group assumes the possibility of successfully raising objections resulting in the dismissal of the claim and also does not expect an influx of lawsuits for such agreements in the future. This is confirmed by past practice: the scale of litigation for the remainder of the loan population is negligible.
As a result, the entire forecast of future lawsuits relates to denominated loans of active loans or loans that have been fully repaid within the last 10 years.
The Group estimates that in total, i.e. counting the lawsuits that have been and will be brought by borrowers against the Bank, approximately 41% (including approximately 65% for active contracts and 13% for repaid contracts) of the total CHF approximately 2 billion of such loans granted may be in dispute (relative to 47%, including 71% for active contracts and 16% for repaid contracts estimated at the end of 2022), and the phenomenon of the inflow of lawsuits may remain significant until the end of 2028.
2) the likelihood of losing a court case
According to the opinion of an external law firm, for the denominated loans acquired by the Group as a result of the acquisition (demerger) of Bank BPH, the Group estimates the probability that the contractual provisions will be considered abusive at a minimum of 95% (against a minimum of 95% at the end of 2022).
3) financial implications of court disputes
The Group accepts the following possible litigation settlements:
invalidation of the entire CHF foreign currency mortgage loan agreement as a result of declaring the valorization clause illegal, which the Bank considers to be the most likely outcome (above 95%);
recognition that the clauses contained in the loan agreement constitute prohibited contractual provisions resulting in the loan balance being set in PLN and the loan interest rate remaining based on the SARON/LIBOR rate (the so- called ‘de-franking’);
declare the valorization clause abusive and replace in its content the Bank's exchange rate table with the average NBP rate;
dismiss the claim.
The Group maintained expectations including the probability distribution of possible outcomes and the amount of expected financial impact if the court case is lost, taking into account statistics for litigation cases currently pending. In particular, the share of loan cancellation in possible settlement scenarios exceeds 95% (no changes compared to 2022).
Moreover, the calculation takes into account additional costs related to the possible loss of a court dispute, calculated for the entire portfolio covered by the provision calculation: interest for delay and costs of legal representation.
Bank Pekao S.A.
152
Consolidated Financial Statements of Bank Pekao S.A. Group for the year ended on 31 December 2023 (in PLN million )
The Bank also takes into account the time value of money, in accordance with the projected dynamics of the inflow of future lawsuits and the expected duration of the dispute, i.e. the financial consequences of the dispute in an amount not exceeding the net carrying amount of a given contract were discounted using the effective interest rate of the loan, and the remaining part, including the entire interest for delay and costs of legal representation, profitability of Polish treasury bonds.
4) inclusion of a settlement program
For the population of agreements covered by the program, the Bank assumes that the borrower will accept the settlement offer with a probability of approximately 35%, resulting from empirical observations. If a settlement is reached, the Bank no longer expects a lawsuit under a given contract. Otherwise, the probability and distribution of resolutions of the court dispute are the same as described in point 1)-3).
Although the subject of legal risk related to the CHF loan portfolio is one of the key topics in the sector in recent years, the history of data on the scale of lawsuits (in particular in the field of final judgments), is still insufficient. All of the above causes that the process of determining the level of the provision requires each time the Bank adopts many expert assumptions based on professional judgment.
Subsequent rulings and possible sectoral solutions that will appear on the Polish market with regard to foreign currency mortgage loans in CHF may affect the amount of the provision determined by the Bank and cause the necessity to change individual assumptions adopted in the calculations. In connection with the above-mentioned uncertainty, it is possible that the amount of the provision will change in the future.
Provision related to foreign currency mortgage loans in CHF – results and allocation
As at 31 December 2023, the level of the provision for the aforementioned legal risk related to CHF denominated mortgage contracts estimated by the Group amounted to PLN 2 448 million and increased by PLN 250 million relative to the level of such provisions as at 31 December 2022. As a result, the level of the provision at 31 December 2023 represents approximately 44% of the total volume of CHF-denominated loans granted, active or fully repaid over the last 10 years (relative to approximately 35% at 31 December 2022). For active contracts, the allocated provision corresponds to 68% and for repaid contracts to 15% of the amount granted.
The above amount includes a provision for individual existing litigation to which the Group is a party and a portfolio provision for the remaining CHF foreign currency mortgage loan contracts that are subject to the legal risk of the recognition of abusive conversion clauses.
A summary of the recognition of the provision for legal risk related to foreign currency mortgage loans in CHF in the statement of financial position and income statement is presented in the tables below .

The Group is exposed in its operations to market risk and other types of risk caused by changing market risk parameters.
Market risk is the risk of deteriorating financial result or capital of the Group resulting from market changes. The main factors of market risk are as follows:
interest rates,
foreign exchange rates,
stock prices,
commodity prices.
The Group established a market risk management system, providing structural, organizational and methodological frames for the purpose of shaping the structure of balance and off-balance items to assure the achievement of strategic goals.
The main objective of market risk management is to optimize financial results so as to assure the implementation of financial goals of the Group while keeping the exposure to market risk within the risk appetite defined through risk limits approved by the Management Board and the Supervisory Board.
The organization of the market risk management process is based on a three-tier control system, established in compliance with the best international banking practices and recommendations from banking supervision. The process of market risk management and procedures regulating it have been developed taking into consideration the split into trading and banking books.
Market risk of the trading book
The Group’s management of market risk of the trading book aims at optimizing the financial results and assuring the highest possible quality of customer service in reference to the market accessibility (market making) while staying within the limits of risk approved by the Management Board and the Supervisory Board.
The main tool for market risk of the trading book measurement is Value at Risk model (VaR). This value corresponds to the level of a one-day loss, which will be exceeded with the probability not greater than 1%. VaR value is calculated with historical simulation method based on 2 years of historical observations of market risk factors’ dynamics. The set of factors used when calculating VaR consists of all significant market factors that are taken into account for valuation of financial instruments, excluding specific credit risk of an issuer and counterparty. Estimating the impact of changes in market factors on the present value of a given portfolio is performed under the full revaluation (which is a difference between the value of the portfolio after the adjustments in market parameters’ levels by historically observed changes of the parameters and the present value of the portfolio). For such a set of probable changes in the portfolio value (distribution), VaR is defined to be equal to 1% quantile.
The model is subject to continuous, statistical verification by comparing the VaR values to actual and revaluated performance figures. Results of analyses carried out in 2023 and 2022 confirmed the adequacy of the model applied.

Interest rate risk of the banking book
In managing the interest rate risk of the banking book the Group aims at hedging the economic value of capital and achieving the planned interest result within the accepted limits. The financial position of the Group in relation to changing interest rates is monitored through the interest rate gap (repricing gap), duration analysis, sensitivity analysis, stress testing and VaR. The interest rate risk of the banking book measurement is generally carried out on a monthly basis.
In 2023, remaining at a relatively high level of interest rates and high banking sector liquidity had a significant impact on the level of the Bank's exposure to interest rate risk and the amount of net interest income. The Bank maintains a balanced interest rate’s risk profile. The economic value of capital and the income stream were secured by concluding IRS transactions on an appropriate scale and by purchasing fixed-coupon bonds.
The table below presents the sensitivity levels of the contractual interest income (NII) to the interest rate change by 100 b.p. and of economic value of the Bank’s equity (EVE) to the interest rate change by 200 b.p. (standard regulatory shock excluding the risk profile of own funds) for the end of December 2023 and December 2022.

46.5. Liquidity risk
The objective of liquidity risk management is to:
ensure and maintain the Group’s solvency with respect to current and future payables taking into account the cost of acquiring liquidity and return on the Group’s equity,
prevent the occurrance of crisis situations, and
provide solutions necessary to survive a crisis situation when such circumstances occur.
The Group has centralized liquidity risk management system covering current liquidity management and first level control performed by the responsible functions, the second level control carried out by a dedicated unit responsible for risk management and the third level control performed by an independent audit.
Managing the Group's liquidity is carried out in intraday, short-term and long-term horizon. Analysing of intraday liquidity concerns flows realized during the day, through a short-term liquidity analysis is understood liquidity measurement system which refers to the time horizon shorter than one year, long-term analysis covers period above one year. Due to the specific tools and techniques used for liquidity risk management, the Group manages current and medium-term liquidity together with short-term liquidity.
The liquidity control is performing as a continuous process of determining and analysing the levels of various indicators and measures related to intraday, short-term and long-term liquidity. Monitoring frequency is matched to the specific liquidity aspect e.g. daily for short-term liquidity, monthly for long-term liquidity. Liquidity ratios and measures are subject to a formal limiting process. The limits’ utilisation is regularly monitored and presented to the Management of the Bank and subsidiaries. In case

of exceeding, escalation process is running as to inform decision-makers and ultimately to restore the liquidity risk exposures to acceptable levels.
Scenario-based stress analyses, conducted on a monthly basis, constitute an integral part of the Group’s liquidity monitoring process. Within the scope of these analyses the Group’s liquidity is assessed under the conditions of crisis which is caused by financial markets or is caused by internal factors, specific to the Group.
Managing the liquidity, the Group pays special attention to the liquidity in foreign currencies through monitoring, limiting and controlling the liquidity individually for each currency, as well as monitoring demand for the current and future currency liquidity and in case of identification of such need the Group hedges using currency swaps. It is also monitored the potential influence on the liquidity of placing required collateral deposits for derivative transaction.
In order to define the principles of contingency liquidity management, Bank prepared ‘Contingency Liquidity Principles’ approved by the Management Board, which defines the contingency procedures in the event of crisis situations. This principles involve daily monitoring of the system and specific early-warning indicators for the Bank and the Group as well as three levels of liquidity risk states depending on the level of early-warning indicators, the Bank’s, the Group’s and market situation. It also defines the sources for covering the expected outflows from the Group. This document sets the procedures for monitoring the liquidity states, emergency action procedures, task forces dedicated for restoring the Group’s liquidity and the Management's responsibilities for taking necessary decisions to restore the required liquidity level.
Below are presented basic quantitative information concerning the Group's liquidity at the end of 2023 year in comparison to the end of 2022. They cover the structure of financial liabilities by contractual maturity, supervisory measures of long-term liquidity and Liquidity Coverage Ratio (‘LCR’) and the net stable funding ratio (NSFR), adjusted liquidity gap and financial flows from derivative transactions.

Operational risk is defined as the risk of losses resulting from inadequacy or failure of internal processes, people, systems or external events. It includes law risk, whereas strategic risk, business risk and reputation risk are separate risk categories.
Operational risk management is based on internal procedures that are consistent with the law requirements, resolutions, recommendations and guidelines of the supervisor. Operational risk management includes identification, assessment, monitoring, preventing and reporting.
Identification and assessment of operational risk is based on an analysis of internal factors and external factors that may have a significant impact on the achievement of the objectives of the Group. The main tools used in identifying and assessing operational risk are: internal operational events, external operational events, key risk indicators, scenario analysis and self- assessment of operational risk.
Monitoring activities are conducted on three levels of defence: risk management in operational activity of the Bank (all employees), risk management control (Integrated Risk Management Department) and internal audit (Internal Audit Department). Preventing operational risk includes definition of operational risk limits and the obligation to initiate mitigation actions in case they are exceeded, the system of internal control, business continuity plans and insurance coverage.
Operational risk reporting system enables the assessment of the Group's exposure to operational risk and the effective management of this risk, and also plays a fundamental role in the process of informing the Supervisory Board, the Management Board and executives of the Group's exposure to operational risk. It is based in particular on the quarterly reports on operational risk control that include, among others: profile of operational risk, loss limit utilization, analysis of trends in the relevant categories of operational risk, potential losses, information on key indicators of operational risk and operational risk capital requirement.
The Supervisory Board and the Management Board, supported respectively by the Supervisory Board Risk Committee and the Operational Risk Committee, are involved in operational risk management. The Integrated Risk Management Department
Bank Pekao S.A.
160
Consolidated Financial Statements of Bank Pekao S.A. Group for the year ended on 31 December 2023 (in PLN million )
coordinates the process of operational risk management. All employees of the Group and selected specialized units are responsible in their areas for operational risk management, due to diversified character of this risk which requires professional knowledge.
In order to ensure compliance of the operational risk management system with regulatory requirements, at least once a year verification of the operational risk management system is carried out.
46.7. Climate risk
In a broader context, matters related to the ESG Strategy of the Bank, including climate-related issues and actions taken in this regard by the Group, have been outlined in the ‘Statement on the Non-Financial Information of the Bank Pekao S.A. Capital Group for the year 2023’. Furthermore, the definition of ESG risk within the Bank and comprehensive information on ESG risk management is provided in the ‘Disclosures on capital adequacy of the Bank Pekao S.A. Capital Group as at 31 December, 2023’.
Managing ESG risk, including climate risk, within the risk management system
ESG risk is considered a cross-cutting risk impacting various major risk types, such as credit, market, and operational risks. ESG risk has been recognized as significant in the Bank and Group's operations, and general principles governing its management are derived from the document ‘Risk management strategy and principles for internal capital estimation’. A strategic limit for ESG risk has been established at the Group and Bank levels, specifying the minimum commitment to internally defined green exposures above 3.2% of the financial portfolio. Additionally, in alignment with the Bank's ESG Strategy, the level of high-emission financing in the Bank's financial portfolio is monitored, reaching 1.04% by the end of 2023, which is slightly above the target set in the ESG Strategy at a maximum level of 1.0%. Economic capital for ESG risk is indirectly considered within the economic capital for major risk types (i.e., credit, market, operational). The Group acknowledges that climate risk will be a significant factor for certain industries, prompting actions to identify relevant data and establish comprehensive risk management for physical and transition risks. In 2023, efforts were made to calculate the carbon footprint for the financing of all business entities and retail mortgage products.
In the realm of risk management, the Group undertakes tasks to ensure compliance with the following external regulations:
1. Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/2453 of November 30, 2022, amending the implementing technical standards laid down in Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/637 as regards the disclosure of information of environmental, social, and corporate governance risks under Article 449a of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of June 26, 2013, on prudential requirements for credit institutions and investment firms, amending Regulation (EU) No 648/2012,
2. Regulation (EU) 2020/852 of the European Parliament and of the Council of June 18, 2020, on the establishment of a framework to facilitate sustainable investment and amending Regulation (EU) 2019/2088, along with delegated regulations.
Climate risk in credit assessment
The assessment of ESG risk, including climate risk, constitutes an integral component of the credit transactions evaluation with economic entities. Alongside the assessment of creditworthiness and credit risk strictly speaking, the Group meticulously evaluates transaction-specific risks, including legal, reputational, political, ESG, including climate and environmental risks, money laundering and terrorist financing risks, and conflicts of interest risks. The ESG risk analysis aims to:
Avoid financing activities listed in the Environmental and Social Exclusion List,
Identify the type of ESG risk pertinent to a client's activity and the transaction financed by the Bank,
Evaluate the client's ability to undertake actions to mitigate existing ESG risks,
Assess potential exposure of the Bank to risks and obligations arising from ESG issues.
Responsibility for ESG risk management
The ESG Board, established by the Bank's Management Resolution in 2020, serves as an advisory body to the Bank's Management, supporting decisions on ESG matters and engagement in projects related to social responsibility and sustainable development. In 2023, the Bank introduced a new organizational structure for managing the ESG area, consolidating most competencies in a dedicated unit within the Risk Management Division. Additionally, in the Group operates the Sustainable Finance Committee, ensuring financial compliance with qualification criteria defined in the Sustainable Finance Framework for green eurobond issuances under the Medium-Term Euro Note (EMTN) issuance program.

46.8. Capital management
The capital management process applied by the Group has been adopted for the following purposes:
ensuring the safe and secure functioning by maintaining the balance between the capacity to undertake risk (limited by own funds), and the risk levels generated,
maintenance of capital for covering risk above the minimum stated levels in order to assure further business operations, taking into consideration the possible, future changes in capital requirements and to safeguard the interests of shareholders,
maintenance of the optimal capital structure in order to maintain the desired quality of risk coverage capital,
creation of value to shareholders by the best possible utilization of the Group funds.
The Group has put in place a formalized process of capital management and monitoring. The Finance Division under the Chief Financial Officer is responsible for functioning of the capital management process in the Bank. The ultimate responsibility for capital management is allocated to the Management Board of the Bank, supported by the Assets, Liabilities and Risk Management Committee, which approves the capital management process. The Supervisory Board supervises the capital management system, in particular approves the capital management strategy. The Capital Management Strategy defines the objectives and general rules of the management and monitoring of the Group’s capital adequacy, such as the guidelines concerning risk coverage sources, preferred structure of capital for risk coverage, long-term capital targets, capital limits system and sources of additional capital under contingency situations.
The Group has also implemented, as part of the capital management policy, the capital contingency plans which establish rules and obligations in the event of crisis appearance or further development that would significantly reduce capitalization level of the Bank or Group. The policy defines the principles of supervision including split of responsibilities for the purpose of early and consistent management in case of crisis situation development.
The capital adequacy of the Group is controlled by the Assets, Liabilities and Risk Management Committee and Management Board of Bank. Periodic reports on the scale and direction of changes of the capital ratios together with indication of potential threats are prepared for the Supervisory Board, Management Board and for the Assets, Liabilities and Risk Management Committee. The level of basic types of risks is monitored according to the external limits of the banking supervision and the internal limits of the Group. Analyses and evaluations of directions of business activities development are performed assessing the compliance with capital requirements. Forecasting and monitoring of risk weighted assets, own funds and capital ratios constitute an integral part of the planning and budgeting process, including stress tests.
The Group also has a capital allocation process in place, with an aim of guaranteeing the shareholders a safe and effective return on invested capital. On one hand, the process requires capital allocations to products/clients/business lines, which guarantee profits adequate to the risks taken, while on the other hand taking into consideration the cost of capital associated with the business decisions taken. Risk-related efficiency ratios are used in the analyses of income generated compared against the risk taken as well as for the optimization of capital usage for different types of operations.
Regulatory capital requirements and own funds
Calculations of the regulatory capital requirements were performed based on Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council (EU) No 575/2013 of June 26, 2013 on prudential requirements for credit institutions and amending Regulation (EU) No 648/2012, together with further amendments, as well as Commission Implementing Regulations or Delegated Regulations (EU) (Regulation 575/2013).
The Group defines components of own funds in line with the binding law, particularly with Regulation 575/2013 and The Banking Act of 29 August 1997 with further amendments.
According to law, Group is required to maintain minimal values of capital ratios resulting from Pillar 1 level (Regulation 575/2013), capital requirement of Pillar 2 resulting from The Banking Act and combined buffer requirement resulting from Act on macro-prudential supervision.
Minimal value of capital ratios on Pillar 1 level are:
Total capital ratio (TCR) in amount of 8%,
Tier 1 capital ratio (T1) in amount of 6%,
Common Equity Tier I capital ratio (CET 1) in amount of 4.5%.
On Pillar II, Pekao Group has no additional capital requirement (P2R).
Combined buffer requirement as at 31 December 2023 consists of:
Capital conservation buffer in amount of 2.5%,
Countercyclical capital buffer in amount of 0.02%,
Other systemically important institution buffer in amount of 1%,
Bank Pekao S.A.

Systemic risk buffer in amount of 0% (according to the Regulation of the Minister of Finance, the systemic risk buffer was abolished on 19 March 2020. The buffer value applicable until that date was 3% of the total risk exposure amount for all exposures located only in the territory of the Republic of Poland).
In total, Group is required to maintain:
Total capital ratio (TCR) in amount of 11,52%,
Capital ratio Tier 1 (T1) in amount of 9,52%,
Common Equity Tier (CET 1) in amount of 8,02%.

Internal capital adequacy assessment
To assess the internal capital adequacy of the Group, the Group applies methods designed internally.
The Group takes the following risks into consideration:
credit risk,
operational risk,
market risk,
liquidity risk,
business risk (including the risk of macroeconomic condition changes and strategic risk),
compliance risk,
reputational risk,
model risk,
excessive leverage risk,
bancassurance risk,
ESG risk (Environmental, Social and Governance).
For each risk deemed material, the Group develops and applies adequate economic capital measurement or assessment methods for the risk evaluation. The Group applies the following methods:
qualitative assessment applied in case of risks which are difficult to measure (compliance, reputational and bancassurance risks) with potencial capital coverage in other risks areas,
assessment by estimation of capital buffer, for risks that are not easily quantifiable however some aggregate assessment of their impact is possible (model risk and business risk) ,
quantitative assessment applied for risks which can be measured with the use of economic capital (other risk types apart from liquidity risk and excessive leverage risk) or based on other risk-specific measures (liquidity risk and excessive leverage risk).
Preferred methods of measuring risks and determining the resulting capital requirements are Value at Risk models, based on assumptions derived from the Group’s risk appetite. The models are developed in compliance with the best market practices and regulatory requirements and supplemented with stress tests and/or scenario analyses. In the case of risk types for which such methodologies have not been finally developed or implemented, the Group uses regulatory models supplemented with stress tests or simplified measurement methods.
The determination of the capital buffer to cover business risk, which includes the risk of changes in macroeconomic conditions and strategic risk, is made on the basis of an analysis of the impact of the economic slowdown scenario on economic capital
Bank Pekao S.A.
163
Consolidated Financial Statements of Bank Pekao S.A. Group for the year ended on 31 December 2023 (in PLN million )
over the forecast horizon, including the impact of changes in interest rates and credit spreads on net interest income and on changes in the valuation of portfolios classified as HTCS (Held to Collect and Sell – classification according to IFRS9).
Model risk is estimated using results of model validation and scenario analyses making it possible to evaluate the impact of potential model inconsistencies on its output. Based on the aggregated output, the model risk capital buffer is determined.
Economic capital for ESG risk is estimated as part of the quantification of credit, operational and market risks, depending on and adequately to the identified ESG risk factors in individual risks.
The procedure of estimating capital needs starts with the calculation of economic capital, separately for each material quantifiable risk identified by the Group. Next, economic capital figures for individual risks are aggregated. Then, the amount is increased by the capital buffer for model and business risks. The sum of economic capital and the capital buffer constitutes the internal capital of the Group.
46.9. Fair value of financial assets and liabilities
Financial instruments that are measured at fair value in the consolidated statement of financial position of the Group
The measurement of fair value of financial instruments, for which market values from active markets are available, is based on market quotations of a given instrument (mark-to-market).
The measurement of fair value of Over-the-counter (‘OTC’) derivatives, instruments with limited liquidity (i.e. for which no market quotations are available), as well as the valuation of credits and loans, is made on the basis of other instruments quotations on active markets by replication thereof using a number of valuation techniques, including the estimation of present value of future cash flows(mark-to-model).
As of 31 December 2023 and 31 December 2022, the Group classified the financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value into the following hierarchy of three categories based on the following hierarchy:
Level 1: mark-to-market, applies to securities quoted on active markets,
Level 2: mark-to-model valuation with model parameterization, based on quotations from active markets for given type of instrument, applies to illiquid government, municipal, corporate and central bank debt securities, linear and non-linear derivative instruments of interest rate markets (including forward transactions on debt securities), equity, commodity and foreign currency exchange markets, except for those cases that meet the criteria of Level 3,
Level 3: mark-to-model valuation with partial model parameterization, based on estimated risk factors, applicable to loans and advances, corporate and municipal debt securities and for linear and non-linear derivative instruments of interest rate, equity, commodity and foreign currency exchange markets for which unobservable parameters (e.g. credit risk factors) are recognized as significant.
The measurement at fair value is performed directly by an organizational units within Risk Management Division and Finance Division, independent of front-office units . The methodology of fair value measurement, including the changes of its parameterization, is subject to approval of Assets and Liabilities Committee (ALCO). The adequacy of measurement methods is subject to on-going analysis and periodical reviews in the framework of model risk management. The same Risk Management Division unit performs the assessment of adequacy and significance of risk factors and assignment of valuation models to appropriate method class, according to established hierarchy of classification.

Bank Pekao S.A.
Transfers of instruments between fair value hierarchy levels are based on changes in availability of active market quotations at the end of the reporting periods.
In the period from 1 January to 31 December 2023 the following transfers of financial instruments between the levels of the fair value hierarchy were made:
from Level 3 to Level 2: corporate bonds which were valued based on information on the prices of comparable financial instruments, corporate and municipal bonds with immaterial impact of the estimated credit parameters on the valuation,
from Level 2 to Level 3: assets or liabilities for which impact of estimated unobservable factor on the valuation was material: corporate and municipal bonds (credit parameters) as well as treasury bonds, foreign exchange derivatives (probability of default).
Sensitivity analysis
The impact of estimated parameters on measurement of financial instruments for which the Bank applies fair value valuation according to Level 3 as at 31 December 2023 is as follows:

Bank Pekao S.A.
The impact of estimated parameters on measurement of financial instruments for which the Bank applies fair value valuation according to Level 3 as at 31 December 2022 is as follows:
As part of the measurement preparation, the Group reviews unobserved risk factors affecting fair value. The Group assumes that the dynamics of observable and unobservable risk factors should be characterized by a similar direction and scale of changes. The recalibration of unobservable factors aims to make the dynamics of the fair value of instruments classified to Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy consistent with the dynamics of market prices.
Financial instruments that are not measured at fair value in the consolidated statement of financial position of the Group
The Group also holds financial instruments which are not presented at fair value in the financial statements. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
As of 31 December 2023 and 31 December 2022, the Group classified the financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value in the consolidated statement of financial position into the following three categories based on the valuation level :
Level 1: mark-to-market, applies to government securities quoted on the liquid market and cash,
Level 2: mark-to-model valuation with model parameterization, based on quotations from active markets for given type of instrument, applies to interbank deposits, own issues, illiquid government, municipal, corporate and central bank debt securities,
Level 3: mark-to-model valuation with partial model parameterization, based on estimated risk factors, is applicable to corporate and municipal debt securities and loans and deposits for which the applied credit risk factor (an unobservable parameter) is recognized significant.
In case of certain groups of financial assets, recognized at the amount to be received with impairment considered, the fair value was assumed to be equal to carrying amount. The above applies in particular to cash and other financial assets and liabilities.
In the case of loans for which no quoted market values are available, the fair values presented are generally estimated using valuation techniques taking into consideration the assumption, that at the moment when the loan is granted its fair value is equal to its carrying amount. Fair value of non-impaired loans is equal to the sum of future expected cash flows, discounted at the balance sheet date, less expected credit loss. Moreover, the fair value of mortgage loans in PLN as at 31 December 2023, estimated by the Bank, takes into account that with a 50% probability there may be modifications in the expected flows resulting from the suspension of loan repayments in the group of approximately 70% of eligible borrowers in the event of the entry into force of the Act amending the Act on support for borrowers (details regarding this act are presented in Note 47). The discount rate is defined as the appropriate market risk-free rate plus the liquidity risk margin and current sales margin for the given loan products group. The margin is computed on loans granted broken down by loan product groups and maturity.
For the purpose of the fair value of foreign currency loans estimation, the margin on PLN loans adjusted by the cross-currency basis swap quotes and FX-Swap is used. The fair value of impaired loans is defined as equal to the sum of expected recoveries, discounted with the use of effective interest rate, since the average expected recovery values take the element of credit risk

fully into consideration. In case of loans without repayment schedule (loans in current account, overdrafts and credit cards), the fair value was assumed as equal to the carrying amount.
Since no quoted market prices are available for deposits, their fair values have been generally estimated using valuation techniques with the assumption that the fair value of a deposit at the moment of its receipt is equal to its carrying amount. The fair value of term deposits is equal to the sum of future expected cash flows, discounted at the relevant balance sheet date. The cash flow discount rate is defined as the relevant market risk-free rate, increased by the sales margin. The margin is computed on deposits acquired during last three months broken down by deposit product groups and maturity. In case of short term deposits (current deposits, overnights, saving accounts), the fair value was assumed as equal to the carrying amount.
The fair value of deposits and loans, apart from mortgage loans denominated in PLN and CHF for which prepayment model is used, is calculated based on contractual cash flows.
The mark-to-model valuation of own issue debt instruments is based on the method of discounting the future cash flows. Variable cash flows are estimated based upon rates adopted for specific markets (depending upon issue specifications). Both the fixed and implied cash flows are discounted using interbank money market rates.

No objections of the Polish Financial Supervision Authority with regard to the payment, in the form of dividend, of undistributed profit for 2019 retained by the Bank
On 7 February 2024 Bank received a letter from Polish Financial Supervision Authority in which PFSA indicated that after analyzing the current financial, economic and capital of the Bank as well as the arguments and additional explanations presented by the Bank, PFSA does not raise any objections to the possibility of paying, in 2024, the undistributed profit in the amount of PLN 1 685 057 618.28 retained by the Bank for 2019 in the form of a dividend.
The payment of the dividend depends on the final decisions of the Bank’s bodies, which will be taken in the manner provided by the provisions of the Commercial Companies and Partnerships Code, while maintaining the principle of prudent and stable of the Bank management, ensuring of Bank having own funds enabling coverage of all business risks, as well as its further sustainable growth. The Bank will inform about the decisions made in a separate current report.
Proceedings of the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection regarding unauthorized transactions
Details of the proceedings of the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection regarding unauthorized transactions are described in Note 39.
Planned support for consumer borrowers
On 12 February 2024, the next iteration of the government project amending the Act on supporting consumer borrowers who have taken out a mortgage loan and are in a difficult financial situation and the Act on crowdfunding for business ventures and support to borrowers was published on the website of the Government Legislation Center. The purpose of the proposed Act is to enable borrowers with PLN loans to benefit from the instrument of suspension of loan repayment in 2024 for 2 months from 1 April 2024 to 30 June 2024 and one month each in the third and fourth quarter of 2024. The project provides that suspension of loan repayment will only be possible if the loan value does not exceed PLN 1 200 thousand and the arithmetic average of the RdD index value (ratio of installment to income) for the period of the last three months preceding the month of submitting the application exceeds 35%. Additionally, the Act also provides for changes to the Act of 9 October 2015 on support for borrowers who have taken out a mortgage loan and are in a difficult financial situation, the aim of which is to increase the use of the Borrower Support Fund funds, among others by reducing the ratio of the borrower's expenses related to servicing the monthly mortgage loan installment to the borrower's monthly household income and by increasing the amount of income entitling to obtain support. If the regulations are adopted in the above-mentioned shape, they may affect the Bank's financial results in 2024.
