Assumptions and outlook for 2025
Outlook for 2025
The text below updates and replaces outlook for 2025 first presented alongside release of KB's full year 2024 results on 6 February 2025 and updated with first quarter 2025 results on 30 April 2025. Investors are advised to consider high level of uncertainty and risks when formulating their investment decisions based on expectations provided below.
Macroeconomic assumptions
Banking market assumptions
Czech economy expected to accelerate marginally in 2025. The growth of GDP should be driven predominantly by gradually recovering domestic demand
Inflation should remain within the CNB's 1-3% tolerance band, on average just slightly above its midpoint. CNB is expected to cut the 2W repo rate gradually to 3% terminal rate by the first half of 2026
Lending market to grow at a mid-single-digit pace, unsecured consumer lending to maintain high-single-digit pace, housing loans to accelerate to higher mid-single-digits. Corporate lending to grow more slowly than retail loans
Bank deposits market should grow at mid-single-digits pace overall, relatively slightly faster in retail
KB business outlook
Group's lending should grow at a mid-single-digit rate. Housing loans should grow at mid- single-digits supported by improved sales volumes and lower interest rates. Consumer lending to increase at mid-single-digits. Corporate lending should expand also at a mid-single digit rate
Total deposits expected to expand at a mid-single-digit pace. Share of current accounts expected to increase marginally
Continuation of strategic transformation, including completion of migration of individual clients to the new digital bank (NDB), commencing transition of entrepreneurs and small business clients into the NDB
KB financial
outlook
Potential risks
Revenues should improve at a low-to- mid-single-digit rate year on year, supported by a mid-single-digit growth of NII and NPFO, while NFC may retreat slightly
OPEX to be reduced by a mid-single-digit rate. Continuing overall simplification, optimisation of branch network, decrease in staff number by approx. 500 (FTE), lower contributions to Resolution Fund, growing amortisation charge reflecting digitalisation investments
Credit risk profile expected to remain resilient despite the geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainties, with a full year 2025 cost of risk guidance expected to be at around 0 bps, primarily supported by the release of provisions booked on non-defaulted loan exposures
Geopolitical conflicts, weak external demand, disruption of international trade due to protectionism, sharp changes in interest or FX rates, monetary or fiscal policy
