adding net profit to retained earnings • We are well positioned to absorb the impact of new regulations such as

Basel IV and MREL, as our capital ratios are well in excess of our 2020 targets

• ROIC exceeded our 2020 ambition level on the back of enhanced efficiency and continued impairment releases

• C/I ratio improving due to stable income generation and ongoing restructuring program

• Further improvement of C/I ratio will remain a priority in the coming years, though our target has become challenging given the ongoing low interest rate environment and the acceleration of IT investments

• Wholesale funding slightly increased due to the growth of our balance sheet

Total income slightly up despite challenging interest rate environment

19

• Corrected for the appreciation of the euro, total income was up 4%• Net interest income (NII) was down 4%. Excluding FX effects NII

declined by 2% due to the ongoing low interest rate environment and a lower average loan portfolio

• Net fee & commission income remained more or less stable:• DRB: up 2% driven by higher commissions on payment accounts and

AuM• WRR: down 3%, but in local currency up 4% mainly due to a strong

performance of our M&A division• Leasing: sharp rise due to higher fees on syndicated financial leases

in the US and a change in accounting treatment• Real Estate: fee level much lower due to the downscaling of the

activities of FGH Bank and Bouwfonds IM• Sharp rise in underlying Other results, driven by:

• a book profit on the sale of FGH Bank’s non-core CRE financing activities and a positive revaluation in the loan portfolio of ACC

• higher results at area developer BPD • the reversal of an impairment taken by DLL in H2 2017

Net interest income impacted by prolonged low interest rate environment

20

• Net interest margin improved slightly, mostly driven by a lower average balance sheet total

• Low and negative interest rate environment continues to affect net interest income (NII) due to: • lower margins on savings and payment account balances• the cost of prudently managing the Group’s sizeable liquidity buffer• continued high - but declining - level of early repayments on

mortgage loans• DRB: stable NII due to positive impact from new business margins on

mortgages and SME lending• WRR: NII slightly down, but improved in local currency in line with loan

portfolio growth • Leasing: NII down, mainly due to lower new lending margins• Real Estate: NII reduced to almost nil following the sale of virtually the

whole CRE loan portfolio

• Corrected for the appreciation of the euro, operating expenses were down 2%, driven by lower restructuring costs

• Other operating expenses (excluding restructuring costs) more or less stable, despite higher project expenses related to legacy files and regulatory compliance

• Since 2015 our underlying cost base has been reduced by almost € 600mn on an annual basis

Asset quality continues to benefit from economic tail wind

22

• For the third consecutive 6-month period negative impairment charges (IC), albeit somewhat smaller than in the previous two periods

• IC at -2 bps of average lending (10-year average: +34 bps)

• Limited or even negative IC in all business segments:• DRB: smaller net release of allowances; residential mortgage

portfolio continued to perform well with negligible IC • WRR: IC decreased to nil; nearly all business lines and regions

reported lower IC• Leasing: IC remained at a stable and moderate level• Real Estate: small release of allowance• Other: negative IC due to partial sale and revaluation of a legacy

Non-performing loans improve on a like-for-like basis

23

• Rabobank is frontrunner in applying the EBA ‘Definition of Default’ to its portfolio as from 1 January 2018. One-off impact on NPL stock: + € 1.9bn, mainly in the mortgage portfolio

• NPL stock further affected by: • Conservative write-off policy • Helping clients with ample prospects getting through tough times

• NPL decreased as a result of the favorable economic environment and the sale of non-core CRE exposure by FGH Bank

• Overall asset quality is improving, further evidenced by still favorable impairment charges and declining level of impairment allowances

• NPL level of remaining non-core CRE portfolio (ACC Ireland) is above average; excluding ACC the NPL ratio would be 3.2%

• NPL Coverage ratio decreased to 23% from 27% (Dec 2017) mainly as a result of:• sale of non-core CRE loans, which were highly provisioned• one-off increase in level of NPL in mortgage portfolio as a result of

application of the EBA ‘Definition of Default’

• Deposits DRB: up € 6.3bn, partly supported by seasonal effects. The increase was split evenly over:• Private savings: typically vacation bonuses paid out in May,

temporarily boosting balances of accounts held by private individuals

• Other deposits: increase in current accounts held by SME clients• RaboDirect: balances decreased as we are withdrawing from the Irish

retail market• Deposits WRR and Other: mainly balances from corporate customers,

27

• Rabobank has received a binding MREL requirement of 30.96% (~€ 65bn – FYE2016). This number:• Includes the binding Basel I floor in the Recapitalization Amount• Is based on BRRD I - future MREL subject to ongoing political

developments (European trilogue) with regards to the risk reduction package

• With MREL eligible instruments of >30.96%*, Rabobank already meets its MREL requirement. As a result, no transition period is set

• Rabobank intends to meet its MREL requirement with a combination of Own Funds and Non-Preferred Senior only

• With MREL eligible capital of 26.5%, the additional MREL issuance is very manageable

• Rabobank’s substantial own funds (€ 52.8bn) provide a significant buffer for NPS investors

• Upcoming senior unsecured redemptions (€ 63.7bn until 2021) allow for gradual refinancing into NPS to address MREL needs. Based on current RWAs, the MREL shortfall (excluding senior unsecured) is limited

Funding strategy: optimization and diversification

29

• Diversified wholesale funding mix achieved by tapping different markets, maturities, currencies and products

• Rabobank’s funding target for 2018 has been set at € 10 - 12bn including NPS (subject to balance sheet developments) of which ~€ 9bn has been funded in H1 2018: • Year-to-date issuance is distributed over USD, EUR, AUD and NZD

benchmarks, topped up with private placements in various markets• Continued commitment towards strategic and liquid benchmark curve • In line with Rabobank’s strategy of reducing its wholesale funding

dependency, it is likely that Rabobank remains a net negative issuer (also including NPS)

Key figures Dutch economy (Jan 2019)* Key characteristics Dutch economy

Investor Relations

• The Dutch economy has fully recovered from the financial crisis, with above EU-average GDP growth

• Unemployment rate is rapidly declining• Private consumption rising because of higher disposable income, high

consumer confidence and rising house prices• Housing market boom showing signs of fatigue with the number of

transactions declining in the first half of 2018• Inflation will increase further in 2018 and 2019, in part due to

pro-cyclical economic policy• The downside risks are mostly international in origin, in the form of

rising trade tensions and geopolitical risks

Dutch housing market characterized by strong price growth but decreasing sales activity

32

House Price Index and number of transactions • House Price Index: 122.5 (June 2018; 2015 = 100) versus 120.9 peak in August 2008

• In 2017 a record number of ~242,000 existing homes were sold. Year-to-date sales were down 7.8% y-o-y. Forecast full year 2018: 225,000 transactions

• Prices rose by 9.2% in Q3 2018 (7.6% in 2017; 5.0% in 2016) and are expected to rise by 9.0% in 2018 and 6% in 2019

• Overall affordability remains relatively good, except for first-time buyers• Owner occupation rate is 56%, comparable to surrounding EU countries• Underlying fundamentals hint at further price increases in the short run:

• Increasing number of households and high income growth forecasted• Housing shortage, also visible in the non-regulated rental segment

where rent levels are rising quickly • Limited land available for housing and limited new production• Favorable tax regime: interest paid on mortgage loans, taken out for

owner-occupied houses, is income tax deductible. This makes house purchase vis-à-vis renting an attractive option

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

• Interest rates remain low

Underlying performance by business segment (I)

37

• Total income remained stable: downward pressure on NII (due to lower margins on savings and payment accounts) was compensated by favorable new lending margins and an increase in net fee & commission income

• Lower operating expenses (-7%), driven by a lower headcount due to the digitalization and centralization of services

• As in H1 2017, impairment releases contributed to operating profit, but to a much lesser extent (€ 27mn versus € 156mn)

• Slight reduction of loan portfolio due to continued elevated level of early mortgage repayments

Domestic Retail Banking (DRB) Main developments Domestic Retail Banking

• Corrected for the appreciation of the euro, the improvement in total income (+5%) outpaced the increase in operating expenses (+3%)

• Excluding FX effects NII was up 7%, in line with loan portfolio growth• Non-interest income corrected for FX effects 6% up, partly due to a strong

performance of our M&A and Private Equity divisions• Profit improvement driven by € 105mn lower impairment charges• Loan portfolio grew by 6%

• Declining levels of NPL and Impairment allowances evidence of continuing improvement of the credit quality of the loan portfolio

• January 2018 one-off impact on level of:• NPL stock: +€ 1.9bn (application of EBA ‘Definition of Default’) • Allowances: -€ 1.1bn (adoption of IFRS 9)

• NPL ratio calculation according to EBA definition; excluding remaining non-core CRE portfolio (ACC Ireland) the NPL ratio would be 3.2%

• NPL Coverage ratio calculated according to EBA definition, i.e. excluding IBNR (IAS 39) and Stage 1 + 2 (IFRS 9) allowances; decrease to 23% from 27% (Dec 2017) mainly as a result from:• sale of non-core CRE loans, which were highly provisioned• one-off increase in level of NPL in mortgage portfolio as a result of

application of the EBA ‘Definition of Default’

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

• Declining trend in the share of mortgages with an LTV >100% (8% in H1 2018)

Main developments

• CRE exposure being actively managed down (H1 2018: -4%; 2017: -4%; 2016: -15%)

• Improving real estate market is reflected in decreasing LTVs, NPL level and impairment allowances

• LTV of domestic lessors of real estate (i.e. buy-to-let) loan portfolio further improved to 68% (Dec 2017: 71%), mainly due to the further reduction of non-core exposure and improved market conditions

Rabobank solidly positioned for future MREL requirement

53

• Rabobank has received a binding MREL requirement of 30.96% (~€ 65bn – FYE2016). This number:• Includes the binding Basel I floor in the Recapitalization Amount• Is based on BRRD I - future MREL subject to ongoing political

developments (European trilogue) with regards to the risk reduction package

• With MREL eligible instruments of >30.96%*, Rabobank already meets its MREL requirement. As a result, no transition period is set

• Rabobank intends to meet its MREL requirement with a combination of Own Funds and Non-Preferred Senior only

• With MREL eligible capital of 26.5%, the additional MREL issuance is very manageable

• Rabobank’s substantial own funds (€ 52.8bn) provide a significant buffer for NPS investors

• Rabobank intends to maintain a best-in-class Tier 2 layer protecting NPS holders

The role of NPS in the capital stack (in € bn) MREL strategy

• Upcoming senior unsecured redemptions (€ 63.7bn until 2021) allow for gradual refinancing into NPS to address MREL needs. Based on current RWAs, the MREL shortfall (excluding senior unsecured) is limited

• Rabobank expects NPS issuances of € 3-5bn per annum. This range is subject to regulatory and peer group developments and includes early anticipation of the expected Basel IV impact

Flexibility regarding the issuance of Non-Preferred Senior Debt

55

• Rabobank has updated its GMTN programme to include the flexibility to issue NPS prior to the final implementation of the law

• Rabobank issued its inaugural NPS before the adoption of the law, this temporary Preferred Senior debt will automatically change to reflect the statutory NPS ranking once the legislation becomes effective

• After the implementation of the CHD, MREL instruments will be issued directly in NPS format

• This approach is consistent with other European countries’ NPS law implementation processes

Rabobank liquidity strategy

59

• Rabobank manages the Group’s liquidity positions according to an internally defined risk framework and external regulatory requirements

• The liquidity buffer strategy aims at high quality assets, with level 1 assets forming 95% of HQLA

• The € 3bn increase of the liquidity buffer in H1 2018 can be partly explained by a seasonal inflow of retail deposits (i.e. holiday allowances paid in May, boosting balances of accounts held by private individuals)

• The size of the liquidity buffer is comparable to June 2017 (€ 122bn)

Safe and sound liquidity profile(Jun 2018)

Liquidity strategy

• Rabobank aims to have an optimal blend of different funding sources for an effective management of its liquidity position

• Rabobank maintains a smooth funding maturity profile in order to avoid refinancing concentrations

• With a solid track-record of issuance across different currencies and locations, Rabobank keeps on working on its funding products diversification

Rabobank will meet ‘Basel IV’ requirements

65

Assessment of December 2017 Basel IV proposals• Rabobank supports a robust, simple and transparent banking system. When transposing the Basel proposals into European law, Rabobank calls for:

• a level playing field to avoid an unwanted disproportionate impact on banks with large, strongly collateralized loan portfolios• consistency with current initiatives such as the ECB’s TRIM. Improvement of internal risk models is key and Rabobank remains in favor of a risk

sensitive approach rather than a simplified standardized model that does not fairly reflect the risks

Rabobank strategy / response• Upcoming new capital regulations (including Basel IV) were one of the drivers of the development of Rabobank’s current Strategic Framework

2016 – 2020. The indicative impact of the current Basel proposals falls within the assumptions used in developing the Strategic Framework• The continued execution of our strategy, including balance sheet optimization, will ensure that Rabobank will be able to absorb the impact of Basel IV• Rabobank will continue growing regulatory capital by retaining future profits• The underlying risks in our current assets and consequently our inherent risk profile are not impacted by the implementation of Basel IV • Continue servicing our clients is core to our strategy and will not be materially impacted. This also applies to our lending operations

Indication of impact• Pro forma calculations indicate an ~30-35% RWA increase. The following should be taken into account when assessing the indicated impact:

• The new regime will be implemented as of 2022 at the earliest • The output floor will be fully phased-in by 2027• The indication is based on our current interpretation of the proposals and based on expected choices to be made as included in the proposals• The indication excludes any technical, data-quality and strategic (balance sheet) management actions, which could mitigate the ultimate impact• Current Basel Committee proposals still to be reviewed and approved by the EU and, following that, enacted into Dutch law and regulations

• With an indicative ~50% RWA increase the impact of our large residential mortgage portfolio on the total indicative RWA increase is relatively high

Impact of implementation of IFRS 9

66

CET 1 ratio

• The implementation of IFRS 9 had a negative impact of 14 bps on Rabobank’s CET1 ratio • Main driver is the adoption of new Classification & Measurement rules, resulting in a reduction of CET 1 capital• For regulatory capital calculation purposes the increased level of impairment allowances was offset by the existing IRB Shortfall

Impairment allowances

• IFRS 9 may result in a higher volatility of impairment charges, reflecting the forward-looking nature of impairments, using new frameworks which forecast losses based on 12-month and lifetime performing metrics (Expected Credit Losses)

Impact IFRS 9 on balance sheet minimal

67

• Adoption of new Classification & Measurement rules on the asset side led to reclassification of non-core portfolios to Fair Value through P&L

• This reclassification resulted in a decrease in the level of impairment allowances by € 1.3bn

Impact Expected Credit Losses (ECL)

• Model-based allowances under IFRS 9 increased vs. IAS39• Impact on individually assessed allowances is negligible

Impact on IFRS capital

• C&M positively impacted IFRS capital, as positive impact of reclassification of structured notes to amortized cost more than compensated negative impact of other C&M adjustments

Impact on CET1 ratio

• For CET1 calculation purposes the increased level of impairment allowances was fully offset by the existing IRB Shortfall

• Total impact on CET1 ratio was -14 bps, driven by new C&M rules (due to existing prudential filters, the reclassification of structured notes to amortized cost had no impact on CET1 capital)

Limited UK exposure and low direct impact of Brexit

68

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

• Total exposure UK (June 2018): € 9.0bn (excluding deposits at the BoE and sovereign exposure)

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

• The bank continues to monitor the (potential) impact of Brexit and has prepared contingency plans on the basis of (scenario) analyses. As per the UK regulator PRA guidance, and to continue its banking activities in the UK post-Brexit, in Q2 2018 Rabobank has submitted a Third Country Banking License application to the PRA/FCA and is actively engaged with home and host regulators (ECB, PRA and FCA) on the topic of Brexit preparedness

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

• Indirect effect of Brexit could be negative for the Dutch economy. The UK is an important trade partner of the Netherlands. In value added terms, 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
