Dissemination of a Regulatory Announcement that contains inside information according to REGULATION (EU) No 596/2014 (MAR), transmitted by EQS Group.
The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.


Commerzbank expects to fully write off the existing goodwill of around €1.5bn and a negative risk result of at least €1.7bn in the financial year 2020. The risk result includes a top-level adjustment of around €500m for Corona related effects expected in 2021.

Due to deteriorating market parameters, among others the interest rate levels in the euro area and in Poland, the Bank expects the existing goodwill of around €1.5bn to be fully written off. This write-off has no effect on the regulatory capital ratio (CET1).

For the financial year 2020, the bank expects a negative risk result of at least €1.7bn. This includes a top-level adjustment of around €500m for Corona related effects expected in 2021. With the higher risk result, the Bank anticipates the currently expected impact of the second lock-down.
