Disclosure relating to segment reporting reflects the Group’s organisational structure 1 by business<br />

segments in line with the current practice in management reporting of Group results, as follows: Retail<br />

Banking, Corporate & Investment Banking, Private Banking, Asset Management, Central and Eastern<br />

Europe (CEE) and Poland’s Markets.<br />

������<br />

The Retail Banking Strategic Business Area (“SBA” or “Retail SBA”) of UniCredit Group aims to satisfy<br />

the financial needs of Mass Market, Affluent and Small Business customers in Italy, Germany and Austria<br />

by bringing together the Group's experience in the area of retail banking and making it available to serve<br />

customers regardless of their geographic location. The Retail SBA includes the three new Italian<br />

commercial banks (UniCredit Banca, UniCredit Banca di Roma and Banco di Sicilia), the retail business<br />

areas of UniCredit Bank AG in Germany and UniCredit Bank Austria, besides UniCredit Family Financing<br />

Bank, a bank specializing in mortgages and consumer credit, which provides the SBA’s banks with<br />

solutions that meet the many financial requirements of households. Lastly, since May 2009 the Retail<br />

SBA has included Asset Gathering, the business area specializing in individual retail customer deposits<br />

through the direct channel and a network of financial consultants. Asset gathering operates through<br />

FinecoBank in Italy, DAB Bank in Germany and DAT Bank in Austria; these banks offer the banking and<br />

investment services of traditional banks, but distinguish themselves for their unique focus on innovation,<br />

which is reflected primarily in the development of modern businesses such as online trading.<br />

��������� � ���������� �������<br />

The Corporate & Investment Banking area, which is the result of the combination of the previous<br />

Corporate and MIB divisions, targets corporate and institutional customers that operate (primarily, but not<br />

exclusively) in the primary markets where the UniCredit Group has a presence.<br />

Through a broad range of dedicated financial products and services, from traditional lending activities and<br />

services that are typical of commercial banking to more com<strong>pl</strong>ex services with a higher added value (e.g.,<br />

project finance, acquisition finance and other investment banking services and services to access/operate<br />

in international financial markets), CIB supports its customers during the various phases of the business's<br />

life by providing support in ordinary corporate activities, in growth and internationalization projects, and<br />

lastly, during any restructuring periods.<br />

The strengthening of CIB's position as a European regional specialist in the most advanced global<br />

financial markets and investment banking services will enable it to round out the broad range of services it<br />

provides to its customers.<br />

������� �������<br />

The Private Banking business unit primarily targets high-net-worth individuals by providing advisory<br />

services and solutions for wealth management using a comprehensive approach. The business unit<br />

operates through a network of around 1,200 private bankers located in more than 250 branches in the<br />

three main countries (Italy, Germany and Austria), in addition to a selective presence in several offshore<br />

European markets (Switzerland, Luxembourg and San Marino).<br />

In late 2008 and early 2009 UniCredit Group made certain changes to its organizational model leading to three Strategic Business Areas (SBA), viz.: (i)<br />

Retail, (ii) Corporate & Investment Banking and Private Banking, and (iii) Global Banking Services headed by three Deputy CEOs. The heads of the<br />

Business Unit Asset Management and CEE Divisionalization Program (including Poland’s Markets) report directly to the CEO.<br />
