Underlying performance by business segment (I)

Domestic Retail Banking Main developments Domestic Retail Banking

• Total income: -3% due to contraction of loan book and impact of early interest rate revisions in mortgage book

• Loan repricing and increase in fees & commissions positively impacted income in H1 2017

• Lower operating expenses, partly as a result of reduced staff levels

• Loan impairment charges: -€ 156mn, only 1.0 bps in mortgage portfolio

• Slight reduction in loan portfolio due to continued elevated level of extra mortgage repayments, still customer deposits increased by € 3.2bn

Wholesale, Rural & Retail Main developments Wholesale, Rural & Retail

• Improvement driven by increased income; operating expenses exceeded H1 2016 level, which was favourably impacted by release of a provision for legal issues

• Commercial margins stabilised, fees & commissions did not match high levels from H1 2016, results Financial Markets increased sharply

• Loan impairment charges: -10% to € 105mn, which is 20 bps of the average loan portfolio and well below the long-term average of 57 bps

• Excluding FX effects, loan portfolio stabilised whereas deposits were down due to lower balances held by corporate customers, which are by nature more volatile than retail deposits

Main developments

• Net interest income (NII) +2%, reflecting Rabobank’s strong lending franchise; NIM mainly improved due to the lower balance sheet total

• Low/negative interest rate environment affects NII:

• cost of prudently managing the group’s sizeable liquidity buffer

• continued high level of early repayments on mortgage loans

• low margins on payment accounts and the like

• Those effects were counterbalanced by robust margins from repricing effects in the back book and writing new business

• Domestic Retail Banking: NII down due to a decrease in lending volumes

• SME lending: aligning margins with the underlying risk profile had a positive impact

• Mortgage lending: margins on new loans remained stable and above portfolio average

• Savings: margins slightly down

• WRR: NII up with stable underlying commercial margins; NII slightly impacted by a reclassification of parts of net fee & commission income to NII

• Leasing: NII up on the back of growth of the financial lease portfolio

• Real Estate: NII down due to a reduction of the loan portfolio

* Balance sheet total fluctuates during the year due to fair value items (such as derivatives) and the size of the liquidity buffer. The figures up to and including H2 2016 are inclusive of Athlon.

Main developments

• Deposits from customers decreased by € 4.5bn:

• Domestic Retail Banking: +€ 3.2bn as the balance of holiday pay being credited to clients’ accounts and despite high early repayments on mortgage loans

• WRR: -€ 7.6bn as a result of FX effects (~ -€ 2.5bn) and lower balances held by corporate customers, which are by nature more volatile than retail deposits

• Loan-to-deposit ratio stable at 1.22

• Due to the narrowing of the funding gap and a lower balance sheet total, wholesale funding needs declined by € 18bn to € 171bn

• Since 2012, high capital ratios are targeted to protect senior bond holders against the (unlikely) event of a bail-in

• Rabobank adjusted its target Additional Tier 1 layer to roughly 2% (from 3.5%) with the issuance of Rabobank Certificates. This will further optimise the capital stack

• More guidance on MREL is expected end of 2017 / early 2018. Once the EC creditor hierarchy proposal is adopted and implemented in the Netherlands, Rabobank could opt to issue non-preferred senior debt to meet MREL requirements

• Transitional ratios as at 30 June 2017:

• Total capital ratio 25.5%

Dutch housing market benefits from favourable market conditions

Housing price index and number of transactions • Housing Price Index: 99.6 (June 2017) compared to 105.5 (June 2008) (2010=100)

• Sales grew by 23% in H1 2017 compared to H1 2016, leading to a record number of transactions

• Prices are expected to rise by 7.6% in 2017 (5.0% in 2016)

• Owner occupation 59%, comparable to surrounding EU countries

• Although house prices increase and lending criteria are strict, houses remain affordable, due to the low interest rates. Nevertheless the affordability is worsening for first-time buyers

• Strong underlying fundamentals Dutch housing and mortgage market:

• Increasing number of households

• Housing shortage, especially in the non-regulated rental segment where rent levels are rising quickly

• Limited land available for housing and limited new production

• Favourable tax regime: interest paid on mortgage loans, taken out for owner-occupied houses, is income tax deductible. This has induced borrowers to take out high mortgage loans

• Strict mandatory underwriting criteria and strong legal system mitigate credit risks

• Interest rates are very low

Loan-to-value mortgage portfolio

LTV domestic residential mortgage portfolio • Average LTV portfolio June 2017: 71%

• Prudent underwriting standards, including a Loan expenses-to-income ratio, and active risk monitoring are the most important factors determining the risks in Rabobank’s mortgage portfolio

• LTV figures do not take into account:

• free savings accounts of the borrower

• securities and other assets of the borrower

• To cover premature death risk, the majority of clients have taken out a life insurance, pledged to the bank

• Some clients have taken out an insurance to cover unemployment risk

• An LTV>100% does not mean that the loan in question is non-performing. As long as the borrower is able to meet debt service, the collateral value is less of an issue

Phasing in of CCB and split of Pillar 2 lowered CET1 requirement in 2017

• Rabobank 2017 CET1 requirement is built up as follows:

• 4.5% Pillar 1 (P1)

• 1.75% Pillar 2 Requirement (P2R)

• 1.25% Capital Conservation Buffer (CCB)

• 1.5% Systemic Risk Buffer (SRB)

• In 2019 the fully loaded CET1 requirement and MDA trigger is expected to be at 11.75% due to the phasing in of the CCB and SRB

• The undisclosed Pillar 2 Guidance (P2G) is not directly binding and not relevant for the MDA trigger

2017 SREP requirement (in %) 9% CET1 requirement in 2017

• Rabobank remains committed to its >14% CET1 target (on a fully loaded basis)

• Current transitional CET1 ratio of 15.0% implies a buffer of 6%-points (€ 12.4bn) over 2017 minimum CET1 requirements

• Since 2012, high capital ratios are targeted to protect senior bond holders against the (unlikely) event of a bail-in

• Rabobank adjusted its target Additional Tier 1 layer to roughly 2% (from 3.5%) with the issuance of Rabobank Certificates. This will further optimise the capital stack

• More guidance on MREL is expected end of 2017 / early 2018. Once the EC creditor hierarchy proposal is adopted and implemented in the Netherlands, Rabobank could opt to issue non-preferred senior debt to meet MREL requirements

• Transitional ratios as at 30 June 2017:

• Tier 1 ratio 18.1%

• Total capital ratio 25.5%

• Leverage ratio 5.8%

Large bail-in buffer protecting senior debt holders

• The bail-in buffer consists of (subordinated) balance sheet items protecting senior unsecured debt against the unlikely event of bail-in

• All buffer items have a residual maturity of over 1 year, in line with the proposed MREL requirements

• Rabobank has a strong buffer in place totaling € 57.4bn i.e. 28% of RWA

Stress testing bail-in buffer (June 2017) Bail-in buffer as proxy for MREL

• Senior unsecured is not affected until losses exceed 9.2% of Rabobank’s balance sheet total

• If losses were to amount 10% of the balance sheet total, senior unsecured would only be bailed in up to 4% of its nominal outstanding

Limited UK exposure and low direct impact of Brexit

• Rabobank’s direct exposure to clients in the UK is limited

• Total exposure UK (June 2017): € 5.5bn (excluding deposits at the BoE and sovereign exposure)

• Rabobank London’s franchise in the UK includes products and services for international clients in the field of corporate banking, commercial financing and operations related to global financial markets.

• The bank is considering the (potential) impact of Brexit by means of scenario analyses and will consider contingency plans on this basis. As at their request to all banks with a presence in the UK, Rabobank will confirm the consideration of these plans to the UK regulator PRA.

• We do not expect a significant adverse impact on our portfolio

• Indirect effect of Brexit could be negative for the Dutch economy

• The UK is an important trade partner of the Netherlands. Around 8% of Dutch exports go to the UK, and they contribute 2% to Dutch GDP. In addition, around 11% of total Dutch imports come from the UK

Rabobank prepares itself for an increase in RWAs due to the possible ‘Basel IV’ regulation

62

Basel IV

• January 2017 announcement by GHOS delayed

• Proposals include the following key elements:

• Revised Standardised Approaches to credit risk and operational risk, the latter replacing the Advanced Measurement Approach

• Constraints on the use of internal model approaches for credit risk, in particular through the use of input floors

• An output floor preventing aggregate RWAs falling below a threshold calibrated on the basis of the revised StandardisedApproaches.In many cases the output floor would affect especially low risk portfolios such as residential mortgages as well as lending to SME and corporates and Trade & Commodity Finance exposures

Rabobank position

• Rabobank endorses the broad direction of the Basel Committee for Banking Supervision to strengthen banks’ capital buffers, but is not supportive of the Basel IV proposals to constrain the use of internal model approaches.

• Anchoring of proposed output floors to a revised StandardisedApproach implies limited reflection of the underlying risk in the solvency requirement

• ‘One-size fits all’ approach gives the wrong risk management incentives

• To mitigate the adverse effects of Basel IV, banks will consider balance sheet reductions, re-pricing of products due to higher risk costs, and a shift in business models

Investor Relations

Rabobank prepares for the implementation of IFRS 9

• IFRS 9 replaces IAS 39 and becomes effective as from 1 January 2018. Rabobank is in the final stage of preparation for the implementation of the new accounting standard

• Compared to IAS 39 main areas of change are: classification & measurement, impairments and hedge accounting In particular the impairment requirements will lead to significant changes in the accounting of financial instruments IFRS 9 is based on an expected loss model, whereas IAS 39 is based on an incurred loss model

• Rabobank will utilise its regulatory A-IRB credit models as the basis for the Expected Credit Loss (ECL) assessment under IFRS 9

• We will make use of an IFRS 9 overlay to our regulatory A-IRB models to remove prudential regulatory elements (such as PD and LGD floors and downturn LGDs) and include point-in-time estimates, lifetime parameters and multiple macro-economic scenarios. These scenarios (baseline, baseline minus and baseline plus) will be probability weighted. A framework of qualitative and quantitative factors will determine the allocation between Stages

Investor Relations

Expected impact of the implementation of IFRS 9

64

• New IFRS 9 impairment calculations will lead to higher loan loss allowance as from January 1, 2018

• Instead of incurred loss, expected loss has to be recognised

• Rabobank is still in the preparation phase to determine the exact addition to the loan loss allowances

• Within the regulatory capital calculations the higher loan loss allowance will be partly compensated by the shortfall

• Based on our preliminary estimation and taking into account the current economic environment, we do not expect that the negative impact on the fully loaded CET1 ratio will be more than 15 basis points
