Outlook

Persistently low interest rates, geopolitical risks, great volatility on the financial markets and additional regulatory requirements are continuing to create enormous challenges for banks.

Thanks to its stable foundation, broadly diversified earnings structure and focused business model, the LLB Group has put in place a sound footing for the further development of its corporate group. On the basis of its excellent Aa2 deposits rating, which was reconfirmed by Moody’s in December 2019, the LLB is ranked among the highest rated banks in the world. The LLB Group expects to make further operative progress and achieve a solid Group business result in 2020.
