Mr. Nardi, would you like to begin? Thank you. Good afternoon, everyone, and I hope you're well. Today, we once again reported record results with robust net income of ILS 860 million, ROE of 18.3%, and credit growth of 8.3% year-over-year, which crossed the ILS 200 billion milestone. We also provided our normalized adjusted ROE of 10.1% that uses the average LLP from the years 2016- 2019, instead of the reported negative LLP of 0.82%, to help give a better idea of where our underlying ROE currently stands and highlight the strength of our core business. Slide five lays out the major highlights of our results. There were several factors that contributed to our strong performance this quarter. First, net interest income growth of 12% during Q2 and 15.2% year-over-year was generated by a combination of core banking growth and positive CPI. Second, the recent early retirement plan that is bearing fruit, the salary expenses excluding bonuses were lower. Third, the negative LLP was also a driver. Our high rate of credit growth is being generated without lowering our lending standards, as our overall credit quality is improving, with problematic debt down 9.5% versus Q1, and our NPL ratio down to 0.72%. Lastly, we announced that we expect to reintroduce dividend payments totaling 20% of net income once the Bank of Israel removes its current limitation and presuming that no further limitations will be set in respect of ongoing profits. Moving to slide six, you can see that we delivered strong credit performance with overall credit growth of 8.3% year-over-year and 5.1% since the beginning of this year. What stands out in the year-to-date period, our focus segments of mortgages and medium enterprises up 10.6% and 10.2%, respectively. Corporate growth remains solid while consumer lending continues to pick up the pace. As we mentioned earlier, slide seven highlights the success we are seeing from our core banking activities of net interest income and fee generation that improved 10.9% in the quarter and 16.9% year-over-year. Even if we exclude the impact of CPI on core activities, we deliver the high rate of growth year-over-year. Non-interest financing income was lower in the quarter, mainly due to losses from derivatives and fewer bond realizations. On slide eight, we can clearly see the benefits from our early retirement plans in 2020. Our total adjusted expenses were up only slightly, that is mainly on account of larger provisions for profit-based bonuses. Salary expense, excluding bonuses, were down 4.6% quarter-over-quarter and 8.3% year-over-year. Our total adjusted expenses, excluding bonuses, were actually down both quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year. Slide nine speaks for itself. Negative LLP of 0.83% in the quarter was driven by low write-offs, significant recoveries, and a release of provision on the balance sheet that were made during the crisis. The credit expense release leaves our reserves ratio at a still conservative ratio of 1.62%, above where we were pre-COVID. Our NPL improved significantly to 0.72%, as NPLs were either reclassified as performing or were paid down. Deferrals have continued to trend down and do not present a concern. Moving on from the discussion at the group level, let's focus a bit on our main subsidiaries, starting with Mercantile on slide 10. Mercantile produced a record quarter in terms of both net income and ROE, even excluding gains from the valuation gain on shares of Zim Shipping. Similar to the trends as a group, negative LLP and impressive credit growth were significant drivers of the ILS 201 million net income and 26.2% ROE result. Mercantile continues to perform well and achieve strong results as it focuses on its strategy. In N.Y., presented on slide 11, credit demand remains strong, particularly in C&I, while negative LLP and non-interest financing income helped produce $25 million in net income and an 8.7% ROE. Spreads have begun to improve as yields on loans remain stable. The quarter included roughly $6 million in one-time expenses associated with the move of our headquarters into a new building. On slide 12, we present yet another record quarter, this time at Cal, with net income of ILS 79 million and 16.7% ROI. Cal produced strong performance across all key business drivers, including transaction turnover, consumer credit, and acquisition of new active card. The strong results were achieved despite one of Cal's major drivers, international transaction, are still well below the level of pre-COVID activity, which continues to negatively impact the business. We hope that this may begin to change later in the year. That closes out the final section of the presentation, and on slide 13, we move on to talk a bit about our strategy. As we have laid out in the past, we are fully focused on being the best financial institution for our customers and delivering superior value to shareholders over time. Our strategy has three main pillars. First, to accelerate the evolution of traditional banking. Second, to lead the revolution in banking through disruptive innovation. Third, to maximize group's value. We define mortgages as one of our key strategic pillars, and on slide 14, we dive into some details. You can see that our mortgage generation business is booming. We have grown 130% over the past two and a half years and have increased our market share in generation to 30.7% versus 11.2% two years ago. Not only are we growing quickly, as we mentioned, the 18.3% year-over-year growth earlier, but also we are doing it without letting down our lending standards at all. You see that we are better than our peers, both in terms of percent of loans over 60% LTV and loans in arrears of over 90 days. We are able to achieve these great results by launching digital mortgages, streamlining our processes, and working closely with mortgage brokers. After talking about one of the key pillars of our traditional banking strategy, I want to say a few words about PayBox, our main disruptive innovation initiative, as highlighted on slide 15. We are happy to say that in Q2, we received all of the approvals necessary to relaunch PayBox with Shufersal and leverage its growing user engagement to be truly innovative initiative in the world of personal finance. PayBox crossed the 2 million download threshold, launched Apple Pay, and just announced that Israel's leading gift card program will be digitally available on the platform as well. This is just the beginning for PayBox, with much more to come before we head to phase II and create a financial marketplace for personal finance. To summarize, 2Q was a great way to close out the first half of 2021, and we look forward to building on our success and creating value for our stakeholders. With that, let's open it up for questions. Thank you. Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, at this time, we will begin the question and answer session. If you have a question, please press star one. If you wish to cancel your request, please press star two. If you are using speaker equipment, kindly lift the handset before pressing the numbers. Your questions will be polled in the order they are received. Please stand by while we poll for your questions. The first question is from Tavy Rosner of Barclays. Please go ahead. Hi. Good afternoon, and thanks for taking my questions. I wanted to start with the loan growth. You mentioned very strong growth during the quarter, and one of the key drivers has been mortgages. It's something that we're seeing to a different extent across all banks, but there seems to be a strong demand across the market. I was wondering, what are the driving forces here? Do you see that as sustainable? I guess as the last point, is there a risk that the high level of competition will hurt the bank's margins? Thanks, Tavy. I'll answer. Regarding mortgages, at the beginning of our strategy, we highlighted this as one of our key pillars, because what we found out that for us, it's not an issue of demand, it's issue of capacity. We worked very hard to solve the capacity issue, and we launched a digital process, and we streamlined the processes. Now we can say we fixed most of the issues we had, and we can answer the demand. What we are seeing, we see our growth after we fix those capacity issue, it is sustainable growth. We don't see any decline of margin. We are not increasing the risk appetite over there. Overall, we feel very comfortable with the current numbers, and we believe we will be able to support them going forward. We need to take into consideration that we are still below our natural market share when it comes to mortgages. We believe that even if the overall demand in the Israeli market will be a bit lower, we will be able to still support our substantial mortgage numbers. Regarding risk, overall, when we are looking at the LTV, the LTV in the mortgage market is relatively low, with an average of around maybe 60%, maximum is 75%. Overall, we believe that in this line of business, the risk is lower than other line of business. We feel very comfortable with the fast growth over there. Thanks. That's helpful. Talking about provisions, when we look back the last 18 months, you obviously had way more provisions than you had recovery. I guess, looking at situation as a CFO, what would be the reason why you haven't released more recoveries? Is it because you still have some doubts with regards to certain creditors, or you're being careful? How should we look at recoveries going forward? We feel very comfortable with the quality of our current portfolio. As you mentioned, our overall coverage ratio is still higher than pre-COVID. It is on 1.62% right now, versus 1.38% prior to COVID. COVID is not over yet. We wanted to have some buffer in our balance sheet. It is still too early to say what will happen in next quarter. Overall, when we are looking at all the credit quality indicators, we feel very comfortable. Write-offs are very low. NPL looks good. Deferrals are almost gone. We feel very comfortable. Yes, we still wanted to make sure that we will be ready for any potential development. Currently, we feel very comfortable with the current situation. Great. Thank you. There are no further questions at this time. Mr. Nardi, would you like to make your concluding statement? Thank you very much all for joining, and see you all next quarter. Thank you. Thank you. This concludes the Israel Discount Bank Second Quarter 2021 Results Conference Call. Thank you for your participation. You may go ahead and disconnect.
