Dear Stakeholders, Customers and Business Partners,

Despite rising geopolitical risks as well as the slowing


global economy, in 2016 the Turkish banking sector

in profitability ratios while the capital adequacy ratio
hovered around 15%, nearly double the global standards.
DenizBankone of the largest players of the Turkish
banking sectorreported strong results in 2016, increasing
its consolidated assets by 20%, expanding its loan portfolio
by 22% and growing deposits by 27%.

During the year, DenizBank bolstered its capital position,


allowing the Bank to continue supporting a wide range of
sectors of the countrys economy, with specific focus on
agriculture, SMEs, energy, construction, infrastructure,
tourism, healthcare, sports clubs and education. DenizBank
also continued to support major investments that play a
significant role in Turkeys development.

Committed to expanding its product mix and services


based on its robust technology infrastructure throughout
the reporting year, DenizBank once again proved its
technological superiority, winning the Most Innovative
Bank of the Year award at the BAI Global Banking

At DenizBank, we have no doubt that the Turkish banking


industry will continue to achieve sustainable growth over
the long run, thanks to its strong capital structure, prudent
risk management principles, advanced technology and top-

Cooperation with Sberbank played a key role in DenizBanks


operational success in 2016, and I am confident that our
collaboration will be productive in the coming period.

Best regards,

Independent Auditor Report

To the Board of Directors of Denizbank A..

Report on the Unconsolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying unconsolidated balance sheet of Denizbank A.. (the Bank) as at 31 December 2016
and the related unconsolidated income statement, unconsolidated statement of income and expense items accounted under
shareholders equity, unconsolidated statement of cash flows and unconsolidated statement of changes in shareholders equity
for the year then ended and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes to the financial statements.

Responsibility of the Banks Board of Directors for the financial statements

Bank management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the unconsolidated financial statement in accordance
with Regulation on Accounting Applications for Banks and Safeguarding of Documents published in the Official Gazette
no.26333 dated 1 November 2006 and other regulations on accounting records of Banks published by Banking Regulation
and Supervision Agency (BRSA), circulars, interpretations published by BRSA and BRSA Accounting and Financial Reporting
Legislation which includes the provisions of Turkish Accounting Standards for the matters which are not regulated by these
regulation and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial
statement that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Independent Auditors responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the unconsolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our
audit in accordance with communique Independent Audit of Banks published by BRSA on the Official Gazette No.29314 dated
2 April 2015 and with the Independent Auditing Standards which is a part of Turkish Auditing Standards promulgated by the
Public Oversight Accounting and Auditing Standards Authority (POA). Those standards require that we comply with ethical
requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance as to whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.

An independent audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the
unconsolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the independent auditors professional judgment,
including the assessment of risks of material misstatement of the unconsolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or
error. In making those risk assessments, the independent auditor considers the internal control relevant to banks preparation
and fair presentation of the unconsolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in
the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the banks internal control. An
independent audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used by the reasonableness of accounting
estimates made by the management as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the unconsolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion the accompanying unconsolidated financial statements presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Denizbank A.. as at 31 December 2016 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended
in accordance with the prevailing accounting principles and standards set out as in accordance with BRSA Accounting and
Financial Reporting Legislation.
DENZBANK FINANCIAL SERVICES GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2016 97

Reports on arising from other regulatory requirements:

In accordance with Article 402 paragraph 4 of the Turkish Commercial Code (TCC) no 6102; no significant matter has come to

not in compliance with the code and provisions of the Banks articles of association in relation to financial reporting.

In accordance with Article 402 paragraph 4 of the TCC; the Board of Directors submitted to us the necessary explanations and
provided required documents within the context of audit.

Additional paragraph for convenience translation to English:

with BRSA Accounting and Financial Reporting Legislation, accounting principles generally accepted in countries in which
the accompanying unconsolidated financial statements are to be distributed and International Financial Reporting Standards
(IFRS) have not been quantified in the accompanying unconsolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the accompanying
unconsolidated financial statements are not intended to present the financial position, results of operations and changes in
financial position and cash flows in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in such countries and IFRS.

II. Explanation on the strategy for the use of financial instruments and transactions denominated in foreign currencies

a. Strategy for the use of financial instruments

Denizbank A..s (The Bank) external sources of funds are comprised of deposits with various maturity periods, and short-
term borrowings. These funds are fixed rate in general and are utilized in high yield financial assets. The majority of the funds
are allocated to high yield, floating rate instruments, such as Turkish Lira and foreign currency government securities and
Eurobonds, and to loans provided to customers on a selective basis in order to increase revenue and support liquidity. The
liquidity structure, insures meeting all liabilities falling due, is formed by keeping sufficient levels of cash and cash equivalents
by diversifying the sources of funds. The Bank assesses the maturity structure of the sources, and the maturity structure and
yield of placements at market conditions and adopts a high yield policy in long-term placements.

The Bank assumes risks within the pre-determined risk limits short-term currency, interest and price movements in money and
capital markets and market conditions.

These positions are closely monitored by the Risk Management System of the Bank and the necessary precautions are taken if
the limits are exceeded or should there be a change in the market environment.

In order to avoid interest rate risk, assets and liabilities with fixed and floating interests are kept in balance, taking the maturity
structure into consideration.

The asset-liability balance is monitored on a daily basis in accordance with their maturity structure and foreign currency type.
The risks associated with short-term positions are hedged through derivatives such as forwards, swaps and options.

No risks are taken as far as possible on foreign currencies other than US Dollar and Euro. Transactions are made under the
determined limits to cover the position.

c. Main difference between Equity amount mentioned in equity statement and Equity amount in consolidated balance sheet
sources from general provisions and subordinated credits. The portion of main amount to credit risk of general provision up
to 1,25% and subordinated credits are considered as supplementary capital in the calculation of Equity amount included in
equity statement as result of deductions mentioned in scope of Regulation on Equity of Banks. Additionally, Losses reflected to
equity are determined through excluding losses sourcing from cash flow hedge reflected in equity in accordance with TAS which
are subjects of discount from Seed Capital. On the other hand, leasehold improvement costs monitored under Plant, Property
and Equipment in balance sheet, intangible assets and deferred tax liabilities related to intangible assets, net carrying value of
properties acquired in return for receivables and kept for over 5 years and certain other accounts determined by the Board are
taken into consideration in the calculation as assets deducted from capital.

II. Explanations related to the credit risk and risk management

a. Information on risk concentrations by debtors or group of debtors or geographical regions and sectors, basis for risk
limits and the frequency of risk appraisals

Credit risk is the risk that the counterparties of the Bank may be unable to meet in full or part their commitments arising from
contracts and cause to incur losses.

Credit risk limits of the customers are determined based on the customers financial strength and the credit requirement,
within the credit authorization limits of the branches, the credit evaluation group, the regional directorates, the executive vice
presidents responsible from loans, the general manager, the credit committee and the Board of Directors; on condition that they
are in compliance with the related regulations.

Credit risk limits are determined for debtors or group of debtors. Credit risk limits of the debtors, group of debtors and sectors
are monitored on a weekly basis.

Information on determination and distribution of risk limits for daily transactions, monitoring of risk concentrations related to
off-balance sheet items per customer and dealer basis

Risk limits and allocations relating to daily transactions are monitored on a daily basis. Off-balance sheet risk concentrations are
monitored by on-site and off-site investigations.

Information on periodical analysis of creditworthiness of loans and other receivables per legislation, inspection of account
vouchers taken against new loans, if not inspected, the reasons for it, credit limit renewals, collaterals against loans and
other receivables

The Group targets a healthy loan portfolio and in order to meet its target there are process instructions, follow-up and control
procedures, close monitoring procedures and risk classifications for loans in accordance with the banking legislation.

In order to prevent the loans becoming non-performing either due to cyclical changes or structural problems, the potential
problematic customers are determined through the analysis of early warning signals, and the probable performance problems are
aimed to be resolved at an early stage.

It is preferred to obtain highly liquid collaterals such as bank guarantees, real estate and ship mortgages, pledges on securities,
bills of exchange and sureties of the persons and companies.

Descriptions of past due and impaired loans as per the accounting practices

Loans which were transferred to second group loans based on the Regulation on Procedures and Principles for Determination
of Qualifications of Loans and Other Receivables By Banks and Provisions to be Set Aside and whose principal and interest
payments were not realized at the relevant due dates are regarded as past due loans by the Bank. Loans whose principal
and interest payments were late for more than 90 days and the loans whose debtors have suffered deterioration in their
creditworthiness as per the Banks evaluations are regarded as impaired loans.

Methods and approaches regarding valuation adjustments and provisions

Based on the Regulation on Procedures and Principles for Determination of Qualifications of Loans and Other Receivables
By Banks and Provisions to be Set Aside the Bank calculates general provision for past due loans and specific provision for
impaired loans.

e. Interest rate risk on banking book

Nature of interest rate risk resulted from banking book, major assumptions including also early repayment of loans and
movements in deposits other than term deposits and frequency of measuring interest rate risk

Interest rate risk resulted from banking book is due to repricing maturity differences of assets and liabilities. Considering
repricing maturities, average maturity of asset items is higher than the average maturity of liability items.

Interest risk is evaluated weekly considering size, developments at maturity structure and interest movements relating to asset
and liability items. Interest risk exposed by the bank is managed centrally by the asset and liability committee and within the
direction of decisions taken, the balance sheet interest sensitivity is aimed at minimum level and insured by interest based
derivative contracts.

The effect of potential changes on interest rates to net present value is calculated within the scope of Regulation on
Measurement and Evaluation of Interest Rate Risk Resulted from Banking Book as per Standard Shock Method and reported
monthly.

Measurements performed with Standard Shock Method include all on and off balance sheet items in the Banking Book based on
the classification as per the statutory accounting and reporting. Maturity assumption relating to demand deposits is overviewed
yearly with analyses over at least five year data. By such analyses, the Bank gathers information on average duration of its
demand deposits, and the amount and trend of deposit charge offs from different maturity brackets.

Economic value differences resulted from interest rate instabilities and prepared based on the Banks non-consolidated
financial statements according to Regulation on Measurement and Evaluation of Interest Rate Risk Resulted from Banking Book
as per Standard Shock Method

Interest rate risk for all banking transactions outside the trading portfolio are followed under interest rate risk related to the
banking book. Interest rate risk related to the trading portfolio is followed under market risk.

ALCO performs daily management of interest rate risk in accordance with the risk limits set by the Board of Directors of the
Bank in relation to interest rate sensitivities of the banking book. ALCO meetings are held on a weekly basis.

The measurement process of interest rate risk resulting from the banking book is designed and managed by the Bank on a bank-
only basis to include the interest rate positions defined as banking book by the Bank and to consider the relevant repricing and
maturity data. Duration gaps, gaps by maturity brackets and sensitivity analysis are used in monitoring of repricing risk resulting
from maturity mismatch. The duration gap and sensitivity analysis are carried out weekly. In the duration gap analysis, the
present values of interest-rate-sensitive asset and liability items are calculated using yield curves developed from market interest
rates.

In case of instruments with no maturities, the maturity is determined as per interest rate fixing periods and customer behaviors.
Such results are supported by sensitivity and scenario analysis applied periodically for possible fluctuations in the markets.

The Banks economic value differences arising from the interest rate fluctuations pursuant to the Regulation on the Measurement
and Assessment of Interest Rate Risk Arising from Banking Accounts According to the Standard Shock Method in a manner
separated by different currencies are demonstrated in the following table as of 31 December 2016.

V. Position risk of equity shares on banking book

a. Comparison of carrying, fair and market values of equity shares

The Bank does not have associate and subsidiary traded at BIST markets as of 31 December 2016 (31 December 2015: None).

b. Realized gains/losses, revaluation surpluses and unrealized gains/losses on equity securities and results included in core
and supplementary capital

None (31 December 2015: None).

VI. Explanations related to the liquidity risk

Liquidity risk can form as a result of significant changes which can happen in market liquidity or a general funding risk. Funding
risk states the risk of not meeting cash outflows completely because of maturity mismatch between assets and liabilities while
market liquidity risk states the risk of not liquidating assets because of a collision in market conditions or insufficient market
depth.

The securities portfolio of the Bank carried in order to liquidity risk management is structured in a way to consist of public
securities and treasury stocks issued by Treasury of Turkey in order to reduce liquidity risk sourcing from market to minimum
level. Criteria and principles related to security investments which shall be received to this portfolio are committed on paper and
approved by the related committee.

Management of risk sourcing from funding presents the fundamental of liquidity management activities of the Bank. Main funding
source of the Bank is deposits since it is a more stable funding source compared to other sources and it has a diversification
effect. Additionally, security issuance and credit usage activities are performed in order to extend the maturity of funding.

A large majority of Banks liabilities consist of TL, US Dollar, Euro and gold. The main foreign currency funding source of the
Bank is credit received from deposit and credit agencies. Foreign currency liquidity risk is at a low level since the foreign
currency sources of the Bank are at a higher level than assets.

The Board of Directors approved Risk Appetite Disclosure on 30 March 2016 in order to manage risks in accordance with the
Banks strategy and its financial power. Risk Appetite Disclosure includes limits towards liquidity risks besides other risk limits.
Risk appetite limits are reported to senior management monthly in scope of risk management activities.

Short-term liquidity management of the Bank is under the responsibility of Treasury Group. Treasury Group reports to Assets
and Liabilities Committee (ALCO) weekly related to liquidity structure. ALCO has an active role in establishing related systems
and monitoring and decision making processes regarding liquidity risk management. ALCO is also responsible and authorized
for monitoring current liquidity position and legal and internal liquidity indicators and taking decisions related to liquidity
management taking risk appetite framework into consideration.

Liquidity risk management is performed as par consolidated and non-consolidated. In this context, liquidity monitoring and
management in associates are performed by the related associate and monitored closely by the Bank.

Scenario analyses, including specific conditions having significance with respect to liquidity which have been experienced or
which shall possibly be experienced, are performed in order to measure liquidity level under stress conditions. A liquidity level
at a sufficient amount to meet all liabilities even under stress conditions is aimed in scope of this scenario analyses through
evaluating measures which can be taken. Assumptions related to liquidity stress tests are reviewed annually at minimum.
Periodical stress tests are performed within the determined scenarios and liquidity situation is monitored.

determining the credit limits of counterparty. If deemed appropriate, it is tried to reduce possible losses of the Bank to minimum
through applying required risk mitigation techniques. All documents required by the related legislation should be taken into
account during credit examinations. Credit worthiness of counterparty is periodically controlled for limits provided for multi-use
and limits are revised considering changes and requirements in the credit worthiness of counterparty. Customers are determined
based on their classes by credit allocation officers and respective classes are changed, if required.

Credit allocation and monitoring is performed in accordance with segregation of duties and therefore, the credit can be reviewed
in an objective manner during its economic life. Risk models are used in order to measure credit risk of customers in both
allocation and monitoring groups in an accurate and objective manner. Early Warning Systems are used for the tracking of credit
customers and signals received are regularly tracked by Monitoring groups and pre-determined action plans are taken with
allocation groups if pre-determined triggers are detected

5. Credit risk mitigation techniques
The Bank can demand collateral in order to mitigate risk level of the credit. Each type of collaterals and collateral processes
approved in credit risk calculations are defined with Bank procedures. Insurance and evaluation approach off properties or goods
subject to collateral are regulated in internal documents of the Bank prepared in accordance with Turkish Banking Legislation.
The Bank performs credit risk mitigation according to comprehensive financial collateral method in accordance with
Communique on Credit Risk Mitigation Techniques. Exchange mismatch between receivable and collateral and cut-off rates
based on type of collateral are considered through inspecting standard cut-off ratios mentioned in annex of the communique
while maturity mismatch between receivable and collateral is taken into account in accordance with method mentioned in Article
49.

d. Counterparty Credit Risk


1. Counterparty Credit risk (CCR) explanations

Counterparty credit risk is determined according to type of counterparty and the transaction. Counterparties are divided into
segments as financial institutions, corporate-commercial customers, KBI-Micro-Gold-Agriculture customers and individual
customers. Transaction types are grouped as derivative financial products and repo transactions.

Compliance test is applied in line with production information, financial position and transaction frequency of the customer in
order to determine products and services provided to customers.

Credit worthiness of counterparty is analysed before the transactions causing counterparty credit risk and periodically reviewed.
Reviewing frequency is increased if required.

Limits, in line with risk appetite, policy and strategies of the Bank are determined for the transactions in scope of CCR. Those
limits are approved by Board of Directors for banks. Approval authorizations determined in scope of credit allocation process are
applied for parties apart from banks. Limits are reviewed at least annually. If the market conditions get worse or credit qualities
of certain counterparties decline, limits are reviewed and required changes are made. Approved limits are blocked with the
approval of Credit Committee/Credit Allocation Department, if required.

Risk mitigation methods such as netting contracts, collateral and margin contracts are used in counterparty credit risk
management related to financial institutions. Collateralization principles and procedures are applied in scope of credit policy and
procedures currently applied within the Bank for counterparties apart from financial institutions.

f. Market risk

1. Explanations on market risk

Principles, policies and limits related to management of market risk are approved by board of directors and periodically
reviewed. The Bank is exposed to market risk mainly due to interest rates, exchange rates and changes which may occur in share
and commodity prices. When the asset structure of the Bank is examined, it is concluded that the most significant one among
aforementioned risks is interest and exchange rate risk. Two separate methods, standard method and internal method, are
used in measurement of aforementioned risks.

Value at risk approach is mainly taken as basis in the follow-up process of risk limits. There exist sensitivity limits in addition to
aforementioned limit for risk which are not covered by the model. Parametric approach is adopted since the structure of financial
positions held by the Bank is simple and the model is easy to use and understandable. Value at risk calculations are made over
all instruments and foreign currency positions of the Bank which are sensitive to interest. Value at risk calculations are supported
with stress tests and scenario analysis and possible results of potential market movements which can cause a significant impact
on the Bank although having a low possibility to emerge are examined. Retrospective tests of the model are made periodically
and amendments can be made in the model in accordance with test results, if required.

IX. Presentation of financial assets and liabilities at their fair value

a. Calculation of financial assets and liabilities at their fair value

The fair value of held-to-maturity assets are determined based on market prices, or when they are not available, based on market
prices quoted for other securities subject to similar terms of interest, maturity and other conditions.

The expected fair value of the demand deposits represents the amount to be paid upon request. The fair value of the overnight
deposits and floating rate placements represent their carrying value. The expected fair value of the fixed rate deposits are
determined by calculating the discounted cash flows using the market interest rates of similar instruments.

The expected fair value of fixed rate loans and receivables are determined by calculating the discounted cash flows using the
current market interest rates. For the loans with floating interest rates, it is assumed that the carrying value reflects the fair
value.

Estimated fair value of banks, funds provided from other financial entities, issued securities and deposits is calculated through
determination of discounted cash flows using current market interest rates.

The following table summarizes the carrying value and fair value of financial assets and liabilities. The carrying value represents
the sum of the acquisition costs and interest accruals of financial assets and liabilities.

Independent Auditor Report


To the Board of Directors of Denizbank A..

Report on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Denizbank A.. (the Bank) and its consolidated subsidiaries
(together will be referred as the Group) as at 31 December 2016 and the related consolidated income statement, consolidated
statement of income and expense items accounted under shareholders equity, consolidated statement of cash flows and
consolidated statement of changes in shareholders equity for the year then ended and a summary of significant accounting
policies and other explanatory notes to the financial statements.

Responsibility of the Banks Board of Directors for the financial statements

Bank management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statement in accordance
with Regulation on Accounting Applications for Banks and Safeguarding of Documents published in the Official Gazette
no.26333 dated 1 November 2006 and other regulations on accounting records of Banks published by Banking Regulation
and Supervision Agency (BRSA), circulars, interpretations published by BRSA and BRSA Accounting and Financial Reporting
Legislation which includes the provisions of Turkish Accounting Standards for the matters which are not regulated by these
regulation and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial
statement that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Independent Auditors responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our
audit in accordance with communique Independent Audit of Banks published by BRSA on the Official Gazette No.29314 dated
2 April 2015 and with the Independent Auditing Standards which is a part of Turkish Auditing Standards promulgated by the
Public Oversight Accounting and Auditing Standards Authority (POA). Those standards require that we comply with ethical
requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance as to whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.

An independent audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the
consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the independent auditors professional judgment,
including the assessment of risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or
error. In making those risk assessments, the independent auditor considers the internal control relevant to banks preparation
and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in
the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the banks internal control. An
independent audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used by the reasonableness of accounting
estimates made by the management as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion the accompanying consolidated financial statements presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of Denizbank A.. and its subsidiaries as at 31 December 2016 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year
then ended in accordance with the prevailing accounting principles and standards set out as in accordance with BRSA Accounting

II. Explanation on the strategy for the use of financial instruments and transactions denominated in foreign currencies

a. Strategy for the use of financial instruments

Denizbank Financial Services Groups (DFS Group) external sources of funds are comprised of deposits with various maturity
periods, and short-term borrowings. These funds are fixed rate in general and are utilized in high yield financial assets. The
majority of the funds are allocated to high yield, floating rate instruments, such as Turkish Lira and foreign currency government
securities and Eurobonds, and to loans provided to customers on a selective basis in order to increase revenue and support
liquidity. The liquidity structure, insures meeting all liabilities falling due, is formed by keeping sufficient levels of cash and cash

c. Main difference between Equity amount mentioned in equity statement and Equity amount in consolidated balance sheet
sources from general provisions and subordinated credits. The portion of main amount to credit risk of general provision up
to 1,25% and subordinated credits are considered as supplementary capital in the calculation of Equity amount included in
equity statement as result of deductions mentioned in scope of Regulation on Equity of Banks. Additionally, Losses reflected to
equity are determined through excluding losses sourcing from cash flow hedge reflected in equity in accordance with TAS which
are subjects of discount from Seed Capital. On the other hand, leasehold improvement costs monitored under Plant, Property
and Equipment in balance sheet, intangible assets and deferred tax liabilities related to intangible assets, net carrying value of
properties acquired in return for receivables and kept for over 5 years and certain other accounts determined by the Board are
taken into consideration in the calculation as assets deducted from capital.

II. Explanations related to the consolidated credit risk and risk management

limits and the frequency of risk appraisals

Credit risk is the risk that the counterparties of the Parent Bank and consolidated subsidiaries and associates may be unable to

presidents responsible from loans, the general manager, the credit committee and the Board of Directors; on condition that they
are in compliance with the related regulations.

are monitored on a weekly basis.

Information on determination and distribution of risk limits for daily transactions, monitoring of risk concentrations related to
off-balance sheet items per customer and dealer basis

Risk limits and allocations relating to daily transactions are monitored on a daily basis. Off-balance sheet risk concentrations are
monitored by on-site and off-site investigations.

vouchers taken against new loans, if not inspected, the reasons for it, credit limit renewals, collaterals against loans and
other receivables

problematic customers are determined through the analysis of early warning signals, and the probable performance problems are
aimed to be resolved at an early stage.

It is preferred to obtain highly liquid collaterals such as bank guarantees, real estate and ship mortgages, pledges on securities,
bills of exchange and sureties of the persons and companies.

Descriptions of past due and impaired loans as per the accounting practices

Loans which were transferred to second group loans based on the Regulation on Procedures and Principles for Determination
of Qualifications of Loans and Other Receivables By Banks and Provisions to be Set Aside and whose principal and interest
payments were not realized at the relevant due dates are regarded as past due loans by the Parent Bank.Loans whose principal
and interest payments were late for more than 90 days and the loans whose debtors have suffered deterioration in their
creditworthiness as per the Banks evaluations are regarded as impaired loans.

k. Risk Classifications
Parent Bank has simplified its application through only considering credit grades of Fitch rating agency as of July 2016 through
making a notification to Risk Centre on 1 July 2016 in order to limit variability generated by using multiple credit rating agencies
(CRA) on legal rates.

The scope, in which the credit rating grades are taken into consideration, covers receivables from governments or central banks and
receivables from banks and intermediary institutions and corporate receivables for those having residence abroad.

IV. Explanations related to the consolidated interest rate risk

a. Interest rate sensitivity of the assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items

Standard method is used in measuring the interest rate risk of assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items.

b. The expected effects of the fluctuations of market interest rates on the Groups financial position and cash flows, the
expectations for interest income, and the limits the board of directors has established on daily interest rates

The Parent Bank relies on sensitivity in determining limits against negative market conditions and monitors the risk within this
context. Sensitivity calculations are made and limits are monitored on a weekly basis.

Market interest rates are monitored daily and interest rates are revised where necessary.

c. The precautions taken for the interest rate risk the Group was exposed to during the current year and their expected
effects on net income and shareholders equity in the future periods

The Group uses sensitivity analysis, historical stress-testing and value at risk methods to analyze and take precautions against
interest rate risk faced during current period. Interest sensitivity limits have been defined and limits are being monitored on a
weekly basis.

e. Interest rate risk on banking book

Nature of interest rate risk resulted from banking book, major assumptions including also early repayment of loans and
movements in deposits other than term deposits and frequency of measuring interest rate risk

Interest rate risk resulted from banking book is due to repricing maturity differences of assets and liabilities. Considering
repricing maturities, average maturity of asset items is higher than the average maturity of liability items.

Interest risk is evaluated weekly considering size, developments at maturity structure and interest movements relating to asset
and liability items. Interest risk exposed by the bank is managed centrally by the asset and liability committee and within the
direction of decisions taken, the balance sheet interest sensitivity is aimed at minimum level and insured by interest based
derivative contracts.

The effect of potential changes on interest rates to net present value is calculated within the scope of Regulation on
Measurement and Evaluation of Interest Rate Risk Resulted from Banking Book as per Standard Shock Method and reported
monthly.

Measurements performed with Standard Shock Method include all on and off balance sheet items in the Banking Book based on
the classification as per the statutory accounting and reporting. Maturity assumption relating to demand deposits is overviewed
yearly with analyses over at least five year data. By such analyses, the Bank gathers information on average duration of its
demand deposits, and the amount and trend of deposit charge offs from different maturity brackets.

Economic value differences resulted from interest rate instabilities and prepared based on the Parent Banks non-consolidated
financial statements according to Regulation on Measurement and Evaluation of Interest Rate Risk Resulted from Banking Book
as per Standard Shock Method

Interest rate risk for all banking transactions outside the trading portfolio are followed under interest rate risk related to the
banking book. Interest rate risk related to the trading portfolio is followed under market risk.

ALCO performs daily management of interest rate risk in accordance with the risk limits set by the Board of Directors of the
Parent Bank in relation to interest rate sensitivities of the banking book. ALCO meetings are held on a weekly basis.

The measurement process of interest rate risk resulting from the banking book is designed and managed by the Parent Bank on
a bank-only basis to include the interest rate positions defined as banking book by Parent the Bank and to consider the relevant
repricing and maturity data. Duration gaps, gaps by maturity brackets and sensitivity analysis are used in monitoring of repricing
risk resulting from maturity mismatch. The duration gap and sensitivity analysis are carried out weekly. In the duration gap
analysis, the present values of interest-rate-sensitive asset and liability items are calculated using yield curves developed from
market interest rates.

In case of instruments with no maturities, the maturity is determined as per interest rate fixing periods and customer behaviors.
Such results are supported by sensitivity and scenario analysis applied periodically for possible fluctuations in the markets.

The Groups economic value differences arising from the interest rate fluctuations pursuant to the Regulation on the
Measurement and Assessment of Interest Rate Risk Arising from Banking Accounts According to the Standard Shock Method in a
manner separated by different currencies are demonstrated in the following table as of 31 December 2016.

VI. Explanations related to the consolidated liquidity risk

Liquidity risk can form as a result of significant changes which can happen in market liquidity or a general funding risk. Funding
risk states the risk of not meeting cash outflows completely because of maturity mismatch between assets and liabilities while
market liquidity risk states the risk of not liquidating assets because of a collision in market conditions or insufficient market
depth.

The securities portfolio of the Parent Bank carried in order to liquidity risk management is structured in a way to consist of
public securities and treasury stocks issued by Treasury of Turkey in order to reduce liquidity risk sourcing from market to
minimum level. Criteria and principles related to security investments which shall be received to this portfolio are committed on
paper and approved by the related committee.

Management of risk sourcing from funding presents the fundamental of liquidity management activities of the Parent Bank. Main
funding source of the Parent Bank is deposits since it is a more stable funding source compared to other sources and it has a
diversification effect. Additionally, security issuance and credit usage activities are performed in order to extend the maturity of
funding.

A large majority of Parent Banks liabilities consist of TL, US Dollar, Euro and gold. The main foreign currency funding source
of the Parent Bank is credit received from deposit and credit agencies. Foreign currency liquidity risk is at a low level since the
foreign currency sources of the Parent Bank are at a higher level than assets.

The Board of Directors approved Risk Appetite Disclosure on 30 March 2015 in order to manage risks in accordance with the
Parent Banks strategy and its financial power. Risk Appetite Disclosure includes limits towards liquidity risks besides other risk
limits. Risk appetite limits are reported to senior management monthly in scope of risk management activities.

Short-term liquidity management of the Parent Bank is under the responsibility of Treasury Group. Treasury Group reports to
Assets and Liabilities Committee (ALCO) weekly related to liquidity structure. ALCO has an active role in establishing related
systems and monitoring and decision making processes regarding liquidity risk management. ALCO is also responsible and
authorized for monitoring current liquidity position and legal and internal liquidity indicators and taking decisions related to
liquidity management taking risk appetite framework into consideration.

Liquidity risk management is performed as par consolidated and non-consolidated. In this context, liquidity monitoring and
management in associates are performed by the related associate and monitored closely by the Parent Bank.

Scenario analyses, including specific conditions having significance with respect to liquidity which have been experienced or
which shall possibly be experienced, are performed in order to measure liquidity level under stress conditions. A liquidity level
at a sufficient amount to meet all liabilities even under stress conditions is aimed in scope of this scenario analyses through
evaluating measures which can be taken. Assumptions related to liquidity stress tests are reviewed annually at minimum.
Periodical stress tests are performed within the determined scenarios and liquidity situation is monitored.

customers and signals received are regularly tracked by Monitoring groups and pre-determined action plans are taken with
allocation groups if pre-determined triggers are detected.

d. Counterparty Credit Risk

1. Counterparty Credit risk (CCR) explanations

Counterparty credit risk is determined according to type of counterparty and the transaction. Counterparties are divided into
segments as financial institutions, corporate-commercial customers, KBI-Micro-Gold-Agriculture customers and individual
customers. Transaction types are grouped as derivative financial products and repo transactions.

Compliance test is applied in line with production information, financial position and transaction frequency of the customer in
order to determine products and services provided to customers.

Credit worthiness of counterparty is analysed before the transactions causing counterparty credit risk and periodically reviewed.
Reviewing frequency is increased if required.

Limits, in line with risk appetite, policy and strategies of the Bank are determined for the transactions in scope of CCR. Those
limits are approved by Board of Directors for banks. Approval authorizations determined in scope of credit allocation process are
applied for parties apart from banks. Limits are reviewed at least annually. If the market conditions get worse or credit qualities
of certain counterparties decline, limits are reviewed and required changes are made. Approved limits are blocked with the
approval of Credit Committee/Credit Allocation Department, if required.

Risk mitigation methods such as netting contracts, collateral and margin contracts are used in counterparty credit risk
management related to financial institutions. Collateralization principles and procedures are applied in scope of credit policy and
procedures currently applied within the Bank for counterparties apart from financial institutions.

Potential and current risk amounts of transactions are calculated/determined in order to determine counterparty credit risk. The
risks of transactions that are subject to the legally binding bilateral netting agreement and to which the netting transaction can
be applied are followed together.

f. Market Risk

1. Explanations on market risk

Principles, policies and limits related to management of market risk are approved by board of directors and periodically
reviewed. The Bank is exposed to market risk mainly due to interest rates, exchange rates and changes which may occur in share
and commodity prices. When the asset structure of the Bank is examined, it is concluded that the most significant one among
aforementioned risks is interest and exchange rate risk. Two separate methods, standard method and internal method, are
used in measurement of aforementioned risks.

Value at risk approach is mainly taken as basis in the follow-up process of risk limits. There exist sensitivity limits in addition to
aforementioned limit for risk which are not covered by the model. Parametric approach is adopted since the structure of financial
positions held by the Bank is simple and the model is easy to use and understandable. Value at risk calculations are made over
all instruments and foreign currency positions of the Bank which are sensitive to interest. Value at risk calculations are supported
with stress tests and scenario analysis and possible results of potential market movements which can cause a significant impact
on the Bank although having a low possibility to emerge are examined. Retrospective tests of the model are made periodically
and amendments can be made in the model in accordance with test results, if required.

IX. Presentation of financial assets and liabilities at their fair value

a. Calculation of financial assets and liabilities at their fair value

The fair value of held-to-maturity assets are determined based on market prices, or when they are not available, based on market
prices quoted for other securities subject to similar terms of interest, maturity and other conditions.

The expected fair value of the demand deposits represents the amount to be paid upon request. The fair value of the overnight
deposits and floating rate placements represent their carrying value. The expected fair value of the fixed rate deposits are
determined by calculating the discounted cash flows using the market interest rates of similar instruments.

The expected fair value of fixed rate loans and receivables are determined by calculating the discounted cash flows using the
current market interest rates. For the loans with floating interest rates, it is assumed that the carrying value reflects the fair
value.

Estimated fair value of banks, funds provided from other financial entities, issued securities and deposits is calculated through
determination of discounted cash flows using current market interest rates.

The following table summarizes the carrying value and fair value of financial assets and liabilities. The carrying value represents
the sum of the acquisition costs and interest accruals of financial assets and liabilities.

XI. Explanations related to hedging transactions

a. Net Investment Risk

DFH Group applies net investment hedge strategy to hedge against the currency risk arising on a consolidated basis from the net
investments amounting to a total of Euro 1.006 million and US Dollar 6,7 million of subsidiaries Denizbank AG and Eurodeniz.
The part consisting of the same amounts of its foreign currency deposit has been defined as hedging instrument.The effective
part of the change in value of the foreign currency deposit arising from exchange rate has been recognized as hedging funds
under equity.

On the other hand, as of 1 April 2014 the Parent Bank stopped applying net investment hedge accounting due to its net
investment to hedge against the currency risk on the subsidiary of JSC Denizbank, and the total hedging fund which is booked
under equity for such subsidiary is amounting to TL (57.744).

Total net investment hedging funds recognized under equity is amounting to TL (1.006.604) as of 31 December 2016 (31
December 2015: TL (579.894)).

b. Cash Flow Hedge

The Parent Bank stopped applying cash flow hedge accounting arising from the fluctuations in the interest rate and in which
the hedging instrument was interest rate swaps and the hedged item was deposit, on 31 May 2013. Consequently, derivatives
financial instruments which were previously in hedging purpose derivatives assets/liabilities because of being risk hedging
instruments are classified in financial assets/liabilities held for trading lines. Negative differences amounting to TL (18.657)
which were cumulated until the transfer date in hedging funds account under equity will be transferred to statement of income
until the maturities of related derivative instruments. As of the balance sheet date, net negative valuation difference under equity
is net amounting to TL (616) (31 December 2015: TL (3.368)).
