In Asset Management^1, *assets under management*^*1* stood at 1,107 billion euros at June 30, 2022, equal to a decline of 7% in Q2-22, due to a strong negative market effect (notably on equities, life insurance, and bond products), partially offset by USD appreciation.

In Asset Management^1, the *fee rate* (excluding performance fees) in Q2-22 stood at 37.8bps excluding insurance-driven management and money market funds, down 0.8bps vs. Q2-21 mainly due to the change in product mix (smaller proportion of equities).

The strong resilience of the Private Assets activity should be noted, with its stable contribution to earnings in H1-22.

*In H1-22,* the business unit’s *net banking income* remained stable (+0.3%) at 1,625 million euros (-5.0% at constant exchange rates), including the 6% increase in management fees driven by the growth in average assets (excluding H[2]O AM), the increase in performance fees (62 million euros in H1-22 vs. 38 million euros in H1-21) thanks to the development of the Private Assets activity offset by the decline in Asset Management^1 financial income owing to market conditions (seed money, exchange rate impact, and lower dividends).

Revenues generated in the Global markets segment rose sharply thanks to the diversification of activities. FICT revenues reached 339 million euros in Q2-22, equal to growth of 19%. This robust performance was driven by the Rates & Currencies business (revenues doubled in Q2-22), with strong growth in the Flow business that took advantage of the current environment, resulting in an increase in customer activity offsetting the weaker Credit business. The revenues generated in Q2-22 by the Equity business line rose 22% to 130 million euros thanks to the pursuit of its dynamic commercial activity and good risk control. In H1-22, Equity revenues of 313 million euros exceeded the annual run rate of 300 million euros updated during the strategic review carried out in Q3-20.

In Global finance, revenues increased by 4% in Q2-22 to 408 million euros driven by Real Asset finance, with a fine performance by the Real Estate activity and Commodity trade finance that benefitted from the rise in oil prices. Portfolio revenues were broadly stable. Loan production grew by 1% in Q2-22 and by approximately 5% in H1-22.

In Investment Banking, revenues were resilient at 111 million euros in H1-22, down however owing to the smaller contribution from the Acquisition & Strategic Finance business and despite a good contribution from the activities of the bond business in the primary markets.

In M&A, revenues amounted to 89 million euros in H1-22, a decline vs. the previous period owing to the lack of transactions in H1-22.

*In Q2-22, net banking income* generated by the Corporate & Investment Banking business unit was up 4.6% to 955 million euros (+0.2% at constant exchange rates).

*Operating expenses* were kept under very tight control with an increase limited to 0.5% in Q2-22 to 602 million euros (-2.7% at constant exchange rates).

The very slightly positive jaws effect of 0.1pp led to a marginal improvement in the *cost/income ratio* of 0.1pp to 64.1% in H1-22.

*Gross operating income* rose by 4.1% in H1-22 to 692 million euros (stable at constant exchange rates).

This led to a sharp rise in the *cost of risk* in H1-22 (+55.2%) to 168 million euros, including provisions of 95 million euros related to the conflict in Ukraine.

As a result, *income before tax* declined by a limited 5.7% to 529 million euros in H1-22.
*ANNEXES*

*Notes on methodology*

*Presentation of the pro-forma quarterly results*
*Simplification of the Group's organizational structure*
Plans to simplify the Group's organizational structure were implemented operationally in Q1-2022. These measures include:

· The decision whereby the Insurance and Payments business lines report directly to BPCE SA; from a segment reporting perspective, these business lines already reported to the Retail Banking & Insurance (RB&I) business unit that is now responsible for all the business lines serving the retail banking networks,
· The bringing together of the Asset Management and Wealth Management and Corporate & Investment Banking business lines within a new business unit: Global Financial Services (GFS),
· The simplification of functional interactions between BPCE and the business activities of GFS, Insurance, and Payments.
As a result of this reorganization, the reallocation of structural expenses and re-invoicing procedures, as well as the analytical remuneration of equity capital, have been revised.

As a result, and for comparison purposes, the 2021 quarterly income statements of the RB&I, GFS and Corporate center segments have beeń restated.

As these are internal transactions within Groupe BPCE, they have no impact on the Group's financial statements.

*Creation of the Payments & **Oney** sub-segment*
The Payments and Oney business lines have been brought together within a single Payments & Oney sub-segment.
Segment information for previous quarters has been restated accordingly. These internal transactions have no impact on the Group's financial statements.

*Internal transfer*
Crédit Foncier's subsidiary, Banco Primus (Corporate center) was transferred to BPCE Financement (Financial Solutions & Expertise business unit within RB&I).
Segment information for previous quarters has been restated accordingly. These internal transactions have no impact on the Group's financial statements.

*Exceptional items*
Exceptional items and the reconciliation of the reported income statement to the underlying income statement of Groupe BPCE are detailed in the annexes.

*Net banking income*
Customer net interest income, excluding regulated home savings schemes, is computed on the basis of interest earned from transactions with customers, excluding net interest on centralized savings products (Livret A, Livret Développement Durable, Livret Épargne Logement passbook savings accounts) in addition to changes in provisions for regulated home purchase savings schemes. Net interest on centralized savings is assimilated to commissions.

*Operating expenses*
Operating expenses correspond to the aggregate total of the “Operating Expenses” (as presented in the Group’s registration document, note 4.7 appended to the consolidated financial statements of Groupe BPCE) and “Depreciation, amortization and impairment for property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.”

*Cost/income ratio*
Groupe BPCE's cost/income ratio is calculated on the basis of net banking income and operating expenses excluding exceptional items, the latter being restated to account for the Single Resolution Fund (SRF) booked in the Corporate center division. The calculations are detailed in the annexes.
Business line cost/income ratios are calculated on the basis of underlying net banking income and operating expenses.

*Cost of risk*
The cost of risk is expressed in basis points and measures the level of risk per business line as a percentage of the volume of loan outstandings; it is calculated by comparing net provisions booked with respect to credit risks of the period to gross customer loan outstandings at the beginning of the period.

*Loan **outstandings** and deposits & savings*
Restatements regarding transitions from book outstandings
to outstandings under management are as follows:

· Loan outstandings: the scope of outstandings under management does not include securities classified as customer loans and receivables and other securities classified as financial operations,
· Deposits & savings: the scope of outstandings under management does not include debt securities (certificates of deposit and savings bonds).

*Capital adequacy*
*Common Equity Tier 1 *is determined in accordance with the applicable CRR II/CRD V rules, after deductions.
*Additional Tier-1 capital *takes account of subordinated debt issues that have become non-eligible and subject to ceilings at the phase-out rate in force.
*The leverage ratio *is calculated in accordance with the applicable CRR II/CRD V rules. Centralized outstandings of regulated savings are excluded from the leverage exposures as are Central Bank exposures for a limited period of time (pursuant to ECB decision 2021/27 of June 18, 2021).

*Total loss-absorbing capacity*
*The amount of liabilities eligible for inclusion in the numerator used to calculate the Total Loss-Absorbing Capacity (TLAC) ratio *is determined by article 92a of CRR. Please note that a quantum of Senior Preferred securities has not been included in our calculation of TLAC.
This amount is consequently comprised of the 4 following items:

· Common Equity Tier 1 in accordance with the applicable
CRR II/CRD IV rules,
· Additional Tier-1 capital in accordance with the applicable
CRR II/CRD IV rules,
· Tier-2 capital in accordance with the applicable CRR II/CRD IV rules,
· Subordinated liabilities not recognized in the capital mentioned above and whose residual maturity is greater than 1 year, namely:

· The share of additional Tier-1 capital instruments not recognized in common equity (i.e. included in the phase-out),
· The share of the prudential discount on Tier-2 capital instruments whose residual maturity is greater than 1 year,
· The nominal amount of Senior Non-Preferred securities maturing in more than 1 year.
*Liquidity*
Total liquidity reserves comprise the following:

· Central bank-eligible assets include: ECB-eligible securities not eligible for the LCR, taken for their ECB valuation (after ECB haircut), securities retained (securitization and covered bonds) that are available and ECB-eligible taken for their ECB valuation (after ECB haircut) and private receivables available and eligible for central bank funding (ECB and the Federal Reserve), net of central bank funding,
· LCR eligible assets comprising the Group’s LCR reserve taken for their LCR valuation,
· Liquid assets placed with central banks (ECB and the Federal Reserve), net of US Money Market Funds deposits and to which fiduciary money is added.
Short-term funding corresponds to funding with an initial maturity of less than, or equal to, 1 year and the short-term maturities of medium-/long-term debt correspond to debt with an initial maturity date of more than 1 year maturing within the next 12 months.

Customer deposits are subject to the following adjustments:

· Addition of security issues placed by the Banque Populaire and Caisse d’Epargne retail banking networks with their customers, and certain operations carried out with counterparties comparable to customer deposits
· Withdrawal of short-term deposits held by certain financial customers collected by Natixis in pursuit of its intermediation activities.
