Net income grew by more than 2.5 times yoy to RUB 30.0 bln. The increase in net income was driven by a growth of net interest income, fee and commission income and positive trading income from operations with securities.
Return on equity for 2020 increased to 16.9% (2019: 7.8%).
Net interest income rose by 30.8% yoy to RUB 59.2 bln as interest income on loans to customers grew by 5.5% to RUB 69.2 bln and interest income on securities by 42.3% to RUB 21.0 bln, whereas interest expense reduced by 4.8% to RUB 97.2 bln.
Net interest margin widened to 2.3%. Net interest income as percentage of average RWA rose by 0.4 pp yoy to 4.0% as a result of effective utilisation of the bank’s funding base taking advantage of globally declining interest rates.
Provisioning charges increased to RUB 18.9 bln as at end-2020, with the main growth occurring in the first half-year amid the overall macroeconomic instability and business activity slump caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The growth of provisioning charges was also prompted by higher origination of credit products during the year, mainly to corporate customers. Net interest income after provisions remained, however, on the rise, having increased by 4.9% to RUB 40.3 bln.
Net fee and commission income increased by 33.8% yoy to RUB 15.4 bln. The growth was mainly driven by financial services fees and brokerage commission, which increased to RUB 5.1 bln. Guarantee and letter of credit issuance fees remain an essential source of fee and commission income, having risen by more than 2 times to RUB 5.1 bln.
Net gains on securities reached RUB 8.3 bln for 2020 driven by the growing value of the portfolio of bonds, mostly federal bonds (OFZ).
Operating income (before provisions) rose by 87.5% yoy to RUB 77.1 bln. Operating expense grew by 2.7% to RUB 21.8 bln, in particular as a result of consolidation with Rusnarbank and Vesta Bank acquired in May 2020. Operational efficiency remained traditionally good: the cost-to-income (CTI) ratio amounted to 28.3%.
Total assets increased by 20.3% to RUB 2.9 trln driven by the loan portfolio expanding by 28.0% to RUB 1,009.2 bln (after provisions) and by deposits in banks and other financial institutions rising by 13.0% to RUB 1,345.4 bln.
Gross loan portfolio grew by 27.7% (19.6% net of currency revaluation) to RUB 1,059.1 bln. It had a 87.4% share of corporate loans and a 12.6% share of retail loans. The corporate loan portfolio expanded by 28.7% (19.4% net of currency revaluation) to RUB 925.8 bln on the back of the increased demand from high-quality corporate borrowers and revaluation of FX loans. The retail loan portfolio increased by 21.4% to RUB 133.3 bln mainly driven by mortgage lending which increased by 56.9% to RUB 37.2 bln as mortgage loans became more affordable with all-time low interest rates and governmental loan subsidy programmes. The mortgage portfolio also benefited notably from the consolidation with Rusnarbank and Vesta Bank in 2Q2020.
Loan portfolio quality remains steadily high. The share of second and third basket loans stayed at 7.4% like in 2019, while the share of non-performing loans (NPL 90+) in the gross loan portfolio declined by 0.5 pp yoy to 3.1%. Cost of risk increased due to the pandemic by 0.8 pp yoy to 1.8% as the macroeconomic adjustments in the provisioning model were changed in the first half of 2020, which also prompted the NPL90+ coverage ratio to grow to 154.5%.
Customer deposits rose by 29.7% in 2020 (18.8% net of currency revaluation) to RUB 1,737.5 bln or 64.8% of the bank’s total liabilities. The deposit base expanded mainly due to a strong 44.8% inflow of corporate deposits (which thus reached RUB 1,236.0 bln) and FX revaluation. The ratio of net loans to deposits was 58.1% as at end-2020.
The bank’s total capital according to the Basel III standards increased by 9.7% ytd to RUB 332.3 bln mainly owing to the growth of retained earnings. Core Tier 1 capital ratio calculated in accordance with Basel III rose by 0.4 pp to 12.3%, Tier 1 capital ratio by 0.5 pp to 15.0%, total capital ratio by 0.1 pp tо 21.3%.
