than one-third of the GDP of all European Union economies combined and together comprise one of the<br />

continent’s wealthiest transnational regions.<br />

In each of these countries, GDP per capita is higher than for the European Union as a whole. And Germany is well positioned –<br />

in terms of GDP per capita – among the four largest EU economies: France, Germany, the United Kingdom and Italy.<br />

In the wake of the unprecedented slowdown in 2009, the region’s economic growth is expected to resume and continue well<br />

into the foreseeable future. Specifically, real economic growth is forecast to expand, on average, by roughly 1.6 percent in<br />

Austria, 1.6 percent in Germany and 1.2 percent in Italy on average from 2010 to 2014, representing rates in line with, or<br />

even well above, those achieved in the previous five-year period.<br />

Exports will increasingly drive future growth. In 2009, exports in goods and services for<br />

Austria, Germany and Italy equaled 50.1, 40.8 and 24.0 percent of GDP respectively<br />

– among the highest of any EU countries. And these three nations are particularly<br />

interconnected with the expanding economies of<br />

Central and Eastern Europe (CEE).<br />

More than half of Austrian exports and one-third of German and Italian exports<br />

outside of “Old Europe” are directed to the CEE. Furthermore, more than<br />

100,000 Austrian, German and Italian companies are active in the CEE.<br />

The Group’s presence has grown both organically and through strategic<br />

acquisitions in these countries over the years. Ranked among the top<br />

banking network in our three core <strong>We</strong>stern European countries, the Group<br />

provides access to roughly 330 branches in Austria, 780 branches in<br />

Germany and 4,700 branches in Italy.<br />

Across Europe, UniCredit Group is refining its services by positioning its<br />

customers at the core of Group’s operations. This includes the use of new client<br />

segmentation criteria designed to achieve better customer service wherever the<br />

Group operates. The first three countries to implement these changes will be Austria,<br />

Germany and Italy.<br />
