Good morning. This is the conference call operator. Welcome to Credem's preliminary 2020 results presentation. Preliminary results. Let me remind you that all participants are in listen-only mode. After the presentation, a Q&A session will be held. To be assisted by an operator during the Q&A, press star followed by zero on your phone. Let me now hand the conference over to the General Manager, Mr. Gregori, Nazzareno Gregori. Good morning. Thank you. Good morning to all of you, thanks for logging in. We've just closed a year that we surely won't forget. 2020 really upturned everyone's life, we would never have imagined it. We were met with a huge challenge of a dramatic change, and the effects on the economy were very, very fast and very far-reaching, and they still require a strong ability to adapt, a strong flexibility not to be passive when faced with this deep transformation, but at the same time, to turn this transformation into an opportunity. We went through an emergency, and that really highlighted the sense of responsibility our people have and the attitude they have towards innovation. Thanks to the investments we made in the past, both in the digital universe and in welfare, we managed to prove we've been very resilient, achieving results that went beyond even the furthest expectations we had. Before walking you through the results, let me underline that now, more than ever, being a team can really make a difference in achieving common goals. That is why I would like to extend my deepest thanks and congrats to all the people who were a part of the group for their ability to generate value under adverse conditions. That really makes me proud, and we are fully aware that we have to move on along these lines even over 2021. 2021 is still marked by uncertainties, challenges, and further changes indeed. As I said before, the results we managed to achieve confirm the effectiveness of our strategy and the way we engage in banking activities. That is even more true if we consider this against the current economic and health backdrop. Let me summarize our main strengths. Loans, despite fierce competition, they are still growing, outperforming the industry above industry level, around 10% per year. The NPL ratio is further declining, confirming an excellent quality in our assets. This is where the main challenge will take place over the next few years, and I'm sure that our starting point is a competitive edge, at least for the next couple of years. The profitability is in line with 2019, despite the current adverse economic conditions, I consider them really one of a kind, extraordinary. The figures you see on the screen enable us to generate capital in an organic way, improving our already excellent capital soundness, and to go back to rewarding our shareholders in compliance with the regulations. In a nutshell, the overall picture I give you is confirming what I said before and proves the value of a team that was able to take up the challenge coming from outside and make a difference. Before we deep dive into the detailed figures, let me stop for a minute to tell you how our organic growth path is still really delivering outstanding results. That really is helping us to talk about the consolidation in the industry, which has been very trendy, especially in the financial press. We've increased our total business of 58% in the last seven years, exceeding EUR 100 billion. That really proves that you can grow through organic growth. Size-wise, it's similar to having acquired a mid-sized bank without having had to pay any integration cost or capital increase. Let me say, we'll still actively look into any external opportunities, and if opportunities will come along, we will seize them. We will grasp them as it happened with the Cassa di Risparmio di Cento. In the meantime, we focus on the way we do banking that also in adverse economic cycles has proven to be very effective to ensure sustainable growth that we'll be confirming also going forward. The results of our strategy are generating, delivering positive impacts, not only on volumes, but also on revenues. Despite the pressure on income sources in the banking industry, we still managed to constantly increase our core operating income net of one-offs. Starting from 2013, we've managed to generate an incremental core operating income of EUR 180 million. This growth is even more meaningful if we take into account the difficulties caused by the pandemic. The pandemic also really sped up the digital migration trend and process, really removing behavioral barriers or barriers to behavioral change. That has really led to a change in customer needs. Our will is to provide an offering that can match the benefits stemming from the use of technology and all positive items that stem from human relationships. In order to do that, we have to raise awareness of customers in using digital channels and improve the customer-manager relationship when it comes to assets under management, insurance protection, through listening to our customers and trying to understand their need and provide them with solutions. For many years now, we've invested in technologies and digital culture, thus achieving excellent results. In 2020, during the hot months of lockdown, we managed to protect our people, especially through the use of remote or smart working, and to promptly meet customer needs by increasing digital migration. I can tell you that digital migration will be supported by new technology releases that will take place over the year. We are also making further progress when it comes to sustainability. In 2020, the whole group was fully committed to the theme sustainability. We think that working on sustainable growth is a long route, is a long pathway, and it also means involving customers. We will have to ask more info from our customer to integrate those data into our processes. It's a value objective for all of us, for our shareholders, stakeholders, customers, and the environment at large. Here we list only some of the activities we've been running in 2020, they really lay the foundation for the development we will be focusing on also going forward and be more and more at the center of our strategy. In the first quarter, we defined objectives to be defined by 2023, that means a stronger involvement of all stakeholders. Sustainability objectives will be embedded in the objectives of our management. Let's deep dive into figures now. Given the government support and in order to also somehow answer some questions that you may have, let me show you some data, of course, showing our role to ensure customers they could have access to government initiatives. The measures undertaken, moratory loans were EUR 3.6 billion, with a reduction starting now, and that really shows the creditworthiness of our clients is very good, and they are already paying back outstanding loans. 74% of moratoria was for exposure with a PD lower than 1.3%. When it comes to state-backed or state-guaranteed loans, we played a role issuing, at the end of the year, about EUR 2.2 billion worth of state-backed guaranteed loans. If we go back to the income statement, 2020 was really a complex year, and the results we achieved fully confirm the resilience our group has. Our operating income is in line with 2019 and is up 0.2% in its recurring component. That is to say, net of the results of our financial activities and performance fees that characterized 2019. As we'd already said in the interim report, we prove we can manage cost and cost items in a very flexible way with an operating result up 1.8% versus 2019. All that without impairing or compromising our strong commitment when it comes to investments. Let me reiterate, investments are of paramount importance to improve the way we engage in banking activities and to achieve results like the ones we are commenting now. Net profit in excess of EUR 200 million, despite about EUR 52 million of additional provisions to really make up for the emergency triggered by the pandemic. We have positive tax items in the range of EUR 27 million because of the realignment of tax value being realized with book value of real estate. 2020 was rich in one-offs. Let me show you this other normalized income statement chart, normalizing 2019 and 2020 in view of the recurring items. Because we had a lot of one-off items, but we normalize this, we discount this, and we end up with an operating result, operating income, growing about 7%, a net operating profit in excess of EUR 200 million, up 1.7%. We were talking about net profit as last item. Our business model is very sound, very strong, and it enables us to make all the necessary investments required by the market to keep our competitive edge. If we drill down into a greater level of detail, over the last quarter, we had a reduction in the interest income because of the subordinated debt we issued in September and the decline in interest rate. The contribution of TLTRO III is also supporting aggregate figures, but the strong competition is really having a very strong impact on, or pressure on customer spread. The only way we can retain our NII strong is to expand volumes, and we are focusing on that. As I've just said, the competitive scenario over the last year had an impact on average rates for loans, both for us and for the industry. Let me be clear, I don't expect that trend to change in 2021 because of state initiatives and also because of the generalized rate level, which is affecting new loans, newly issued loans. The decline in the customer spread is also affected by the cost of deposits. For us, it's close to zero, so there's no more room for further reduction, unlike the industry, which still has about 50 basis points of costs on deposits. This is only a partial view that enables us to better understand how customer performance is. On aggregate level, we can pick up funding at negative rates. Let's now talk about our securities portfolio. We've declined our BTP exposure, and in 2021, we want to reduce its impact by reshuffling our portfolio and focusing on other type of securities and improving on geographic diversification. More than 70% of the production in Italian govies is HTC, also to take into account valuation reserves. The average duration is one year lower than 2019. Let's now look at Non-interest Margin. We have recurring core components that are up 3% versus 2019, our core NIM. In Q4, we had an increase of 15.5% when it comes to insurance and asset management activities, also thanks to the picking up in volumes. Over the last two quarters, we are bearing higher costs because of the excess of liquidity of the ECB as a natural consequence of the expansion of direct deposits. Then we have banking fees. We might restate also our Non-interest Margin starting from this year already. Taking this into account, the contribution of banking fees is basically in line with that of 2019, given the clear impact of a long lockdown we had in the spring, and the restrictions we had over the last part of the year, which prevented it from growing, meaning banking fees. Look at the insurance income in excess of EUR 15 million over the last quarter, proving the strong focus of the group on bancassurance activities. Let me now focus on costs. As I said at the beginning of the presentation, we proved we can really effectively manage costs, and we did so throughout 2020. That led us to a cutting of operating costs equal to 2% versus 2019, fully absorbing the impact of the new collective contract for the personnel framework agreement. We've tried to really support our growth, this year we've managed to really dose our costs when faced with a more challenging external backdrop. We never forgot our strong focus on investments that are necessary to get ready for the future, this translates into a 5.5% increase in D&As versus last year, versus 2019. Let's now have a look at volumes starting from loans. This aggregate figure, loans to customer, is about 10% versus the total, meaning from 2019. Thanks to moratoria that led to the growth of other types of loans and mortgages. Let me say that leasing and residential mortgages growing respectively, leasing 5.9%, residential mortgages 12.5%, as they were not connected to any government initiative. They testify, they bear witness to the strong work of our sales network and the will of our customers to keep on investing in their future. If we compare ourselves against the rest of the industry, I'm very proud to say that this is the 10th year running, where in loans we record an over-performance where we over-perform the market, and that really enabled us to achieve a new all-time high, meaning market shares evolution. It's 1.9%, the figure we stand at. Let's now talk about the deposits, the inflows. Direct inflows, direct deposits really show a sizable growth. Thanks to the net deposits of our client corporates. A net of maturity, they increase their cash positions. Despite the difficulties and uncertainty characterizing markets in the first part of the year, we really witnessed a strong recoup of assets under management that landed at EUR 1.5 billion, almost. Meaning customers are really acknowledging the competencies and skills we have in assets under management, in asset management, and that leads to a strong development in stocks. Assets under management are up 6.6% versus 2019, despite the market. We really recovered what we lost through the years in the first months of 2020. That really should give a better return on management fees that on average were penalized during the year. Direct inflows and direct deposit is really showing an impact on direct deposit, up 17% versus 2019, showing once again, the fact that customers choose us because of our soundness. We will try and somehow enhance and support the switch to assets under management, and that will be a nice catchment area to support growth in the next couple of years. Let's talk about bonds issuance. We issued a subordinated bond in September through the holding, worth EUR 200 million. Subsequently in the last quarter of the year, Credem Retail went back to the market with subordinated loan in excess of EUR 107 million, partially repplying maturities of about EUR 50 million. For 2021, we are very flexible. We can be very flexible in looking at different opportunities, both for the next EUR 750 million maturity, we're talking covered bonds, and the new MREL requirement compliance. Here I'm really confident we will manage to achieve the required targets in a very short time. Also considering the issuance of senior non-preferred in 2019 and the Tier 2 issuance I mentioned before. Let's now talk about credit quality. Let me underline that NPLs are further declining thanks to another disposal of bad loans we did at the end of the year. Thanks to the effective management of NPLs, also net of disposals, the net flows are negative. 2.9% is the figure we get to when it comes to total NPLs, whilst the European average is 2.4%, sorry. Further credit deterioration is expected. If you look at total NPL, we had a decline of 14.3%, and that had also an impact on their relative impact on net NPL ratio, 1.44%, and we have the same incidence also only considering bad loans. We very much pay attention to coverage, NPL coverage, especially now. You see an increase in NPL coverage, which stands at almost 72%, whilst the overall amount of NPL coverage is 52%. If we look at capital shortfall, coverage is really at the top of the industry, 51% of the total and almost 74% of bad loans. As I said before, from a capital viewpoint, the shortfall on the performing loans was also very important. That took up most of the impact of provisions booked on the income statement, thus not having an impact on regulatory capital. Overall provisions at year-end is in compliance or in line with the volumes we saw in the previous year. Let's now have a look at the cost of risk. It's clear that cost of risk was affected, in 2020, I mean, was affected by the stronger write-downs and collective impairments because of the macroeconomic scenario deterioration because of the pandemic. Despite that, almost EUR 52 million worth of non-recurring provisions, we have a cost of risk which is well below the system average before COVID. If we were to normalize it would be around our all-time lows, around 19 basis points for 2019. Of course, we will still feel the effect of the pandemic. We won't be immune to that, we enter this very problematic, this troubled period with the best possible asset quality. The credit worthiness of our client will enable us to manage any possible increase in NPL and keep our cost of risk in line with that of 2020, if not lower. Let's have a look at the last slide. We're talking about assets and liabilities and income statement. Loans to customer grew more than EUR 1 billion, The increase in loans led to the reduction of due from banks, and deposit went up about EUR 2 billion. Our exposure to TLTRO III was kept stable, flat, which also in view of the total amount that we may request ECB to issue. Liquidity ratios are above regulatory levels, thus enabling us to be fully flexible when it comes up to defining funding strategies. Let's now move to the last slide in the presentation. Let me wrap up by looking at consolidated capital ratios. We went up about half a percentage point in our CET1 ratio, now landing, standing at 14%, one, four. We are very happy with our capital position. That grants us a very strong buffer on minimum requirements, and that enables us to confidently tackle any volatility increase and to keep on funding the increase in loans. We have new software treatment, we have already included, factored in a EUR 0.20 dividend in our figures. RWA, we factored in an increase of EUR 1.6 billion, the weighting of our insurance holding was also factored in, it was completed in the last quarter. Thank you so much for your attention. Let me now move on to your questions. Thank you very much for logging in. This is the Chorus Call operator. We now start the Q&A session. If you want to ask a question, press star followed by one on your phone keypad. In order to be removed from the Q&A queue, press star followed by two on your phone keypad. Please ask your question using your phone handset. Press star followed by one if you want to ask a question now. The first question comes from the line of Mr. Riccardo Rovere with Mediobanca. You have the floor, sir. Good morning to all of you, thank you very much for your presentation. A couple of questions, two, three questions, if I may. First of all, let me try and better understand about the moratoria. You said that they are declining in number. Is it reasonable to think that those who are getting out of moratoria right now are also those clients that have less problems? In there, should there be a deterioration in the quality of assets in those who access moratoria? Do you think we can expect it towards the end of the cycle because people may try and leverage or use moratoria till the very last possible day? Do you think this interpretation is correct? The second question, cost of risk. I want to be sure I really grasped what you meant. 2021, you expect cost of risk in line with 2020, maybe better or meaning lower the cost of risk. The weighted risk, RWA, was there any adaptation in the models? Did you include PD or LGD factors? Thank you very much for your questions. On moratoria, I agree with what you said. Those who, of course, leave the moratorias earlier have less problems. Those who retain them or stay in are those who are going to use them till the very last minute as an opportunity. I fully share what you have just said. As to the cost of risk, yes, indeed, it's true. I said so. We think that 2021 we can retain the levels of 2020 or even lower for a number of reasons. I mentioned before the quality of our customers, et cetera. As to the RWAs, there are some figures, some comments. I'll hand it over to Mr. Morlini, who can give you more details. Yes, that's correct. More than adjusting the model, we have an RWA density, which is higher. A higher density because we are starting to embed and factoring the corporate performance. In 2020, of course, we have to discount the effects of the pandemic. We've seen, in that respect, a shift already on ratings that is leading to a subsequent increase in RWAs in line with the model. More than an adjustment or adaptation of the model. The model is working, and it really is already embedding and factoring in a deterioration we expect on RWAs due to the corporate performance we will expect for them in 2020. They will be worse than those we had in 2019. Daniele, is it reasonable to think that this will go on in 2021 too? Yes, it's reasonable to think that this will be the same in 2021. In 2021, we will have the advantage of no longer having to discount the insurance business. That was about 70 basis points this year. We discounted that on all of our figures. In terms of capital generation, we are quite confident for 2021. RWA inflation is something we expect at system level, at least for those who have internal models. Next question. Next question comes from the line of Luigi De Bellis with Equita SIM. Good morning to all of you. I have three questions. Could you give us some color on the expected trend when it comes to NII commissions and costs? The inflows trend, what have you recorded, both direct and indirect deposits after a good Q4, then recruitment of new financial advisors, what's your strategy after the stabilization you've achieved in 2020? Another question, could you give us an update on your strategy when it comes to external growth? What are the typical features of a potential target of yours? Would you be looking at the assets under management, asset management world, too? First question, the trend. What we foresee for 2021, we assume a non-interest income that should be growing about two percentage points. The same applies to the interest and non-interest. Management fees, excluding performance fees, should be around 2%-3%, exception made for some market trends, if that should happen. Whilst for financial, it should be about 2%-3%. This is what we expect trend-wise in our revenues. As to the inflows and recruitment trends, as this year, as you probably see, our deposits, our inflows went up sizable. Direct deposits, I've already made a comment during the presentation. Our task is to shift that towards assets under management. We are also moving on with the recruitment actions. Bear in mind that we're going to very much focus on the new private hub, because we think that focusing on private customer will enable us to develop, to grow the more valuable type of deposits with a lot of value for us and for our clients, for our customers. Of course, we will keep on hiring financial advisors and bankers to achieve our growth targets. The growth targets, basically when it comes to customer deposits, the target is roughly 3%, slightly below 3% overall, and about 5% for assets under management. It also depending on how the market perform. These are data. Insurance, we expect a growth in excess of 3% because we very much bet on that target. Asset management and insurance are very much consistent with our wealth management growth expectations and the private hub or polo private we have. As to the growth strategy, I wanted to be provocative when it comes to inflows. Sorry, organic growth. I wanted to somehow be provocative. When it comes to external growth or organic growth, we need two strategies. One strategy, depending only on our will, and that's for organic growth. We think, and I gave you data for our deposits and inflows. Despite one-offs, we are willing to grow, but we very much think that size matters. That gives a competitive edge, therefore for us it's even more so if you consider our business model, because with our product factories, we're going to produce more and more synergies, unfold more and more synergies as we go on. We believe in M&A, but as I said, we are going to be active in looking for these type of solutions and assessing them because we have to focus on integrations or acquisitions that will be value accretive and will not bring in further issues. For the Cassa di Risparmio di Cento, we proved that when it came to it in a very limited amount of time, we got to the core of the matter. We think that growing in size is important. External growth does not only depend on us, so we need to have another strategy too, which we are going to pursue regardless of the other leg of the strategy, but have no doubt that should opportunities arise, we will seize them. Thank you. Next question. Next question comes from the line of Fabrizio Bernardi with BESTINVER. Can you hear me? This is Fabrizio Bernardi, BESTINVER. A question on dividends. I'm happily surprised that the dividend is twice as much as due, because it was computed at holding level and not at the bank level, or I had computed it differently. My question is, considering all the issues when it comes to paying out a dividend throughout the year, and there's an ECB ban that will be in place until September. Dividend policy, can it be more flexible, rather than paying an interim dividend sooner or later after September, provided the ECB will enable that, will allow that. Are you going to pay out a one-off dividend, given your capital ratios that are excellent? You are at above SREP average. Your capital base, whether you take COVID into consideration or not, it's a very sound capital base. Could you give us the picture of what your dividend payout policy could look like going forward? You paid a dividend that is in line with the previous years, with your capital base and your asset quality that is better than that of the previous years, net of the M&As, maybe you can do better. You can do more dividend-wise. Well, first of all, let me say the following. Our dividend policies are decided upon by the board of directors and not by management. As we have always said, time after time, this is a decision that has to be made by the board. Having said that, we really complied with the constraint provided by the ECB on dividend payout. I do not rule out that maybe in the next few months, we may think other things. As you also said, if we think about possible acquisitions, we have to bear in mind what will happen in the next months, in the coming months. We're going to be conservative inevitably. The decision, as you said before, to pay out more dividends will be looked into should we keep results as we are producing without maybe considering of engaging into an M&A deal. Nicola Scapillati with Intermonte. You have the floor, sir. Thank you very much for your presentation. I have three questions. The first one is on NII. Are you going to increase your take up TLTRO in the next auctions for 2021? Could you remind us the contribution of the security portfolios to the NII, unrealized gains in your securities portfolio, and what you said this morning, hiring more resources in 2021, what's the estimated impact on cost for 2021, always? Could you repeat the first question because I could not hear you properly? Sorry, can you hear me now? Yes, now I can hear you. I was wondering whether you are going to increase your take up of TLTRO III in March at the next auctions? First question. We are looking into that. We want to leverage that opportunity deriving from TLTRO III in the coming months. It will depend on how things will go in general. The contribution of securities portfolio to NII is about EUR 12 million per quarter. If you compute that, and if you add that up, you will end up with the figure for 2021, should be EUR 12 million of NII of the NIM, Non-interest Margin, are generated by the securities portfolio. Costs and hirings, if I'm not mistaken, you mentioned. Yes. I was wondering what your expectations are when it comes to hiring new people and how that will impact costs. Let me give you figures. I wanted to understand precisely what you were referring to when it comes to costs. Let me tell you that over the last five years, we hired 1,400 people, including turnover. That is really a signal we've sent out that we are somehow rejuvenating, making our organization younger. We have 150 people more, if compared to the amount we had two years ago. We have less people in the holding, whilst the headcount for the group companies is increasing to support our business model. In 2021, we will probably be hiring about 200, 250 people. That is with a delta of about 100 people, because in our turnaround, we have people who, for instance, retire. We keep on hiring, because in addition to looking at the age bracket, of course, there's a gender issue as well. Then competence and skill issue to be taken into account. When we change headcount, it's not just a matter of replacing somebody who's 65 years and replace him or her with a 25-year-old. No. What we also want to do is calling new competencies and skills. A bank needs mathematical skills, engineering skills, physics skills, or psychology, or you name it. This type of change is also very important to renew and modernize our group, introduce a new culture. Did I answer your question? Yes, you did. The question was more focusing on figures. Will that mean that you will have a cost increase year-over-year? Are there any possible unrealized gains still in your securities portfolio costs? We think our personnel costs will stay flat, also including the new increase by CCNL, the Collective Agreement, because if you replace people, you replace them with other people who have a different type of earning or income. Maybe 50 people will be replaced, we will recoup the costs deriving from the new collective agreement, whilst operating costs could go up 1%. The question you asked on unrealized gains, Mr. Morlini will answer it. This is Mr. Morlini speaking. On the securities portfolio, there are unrealized gains because as you could see, we are mostly invested in govies, Italian govies with a very limited duration, or at least part of them with a very limited duration. The cutting of the spread led to an increase in room for possible gains. Indeed, that also goes along with a balancing action with what will happen going forward, the impact we will have on the interest margin. We have an objective to have a growth in our non-interest income, but without going into details, there will be room to take somehow advantage of those gains in the coming months. Thank you. Next question. Let me remind you that in order to ask a question, you have to press star followed by one on your phone keypad. Next question is a follow-up by Riccardo Rovere with Mediobanca. Go ahead, sir. Thank you very much for giving me this opportunity. Two or three follow-ups, if I may. As to dividends, when Credem says you assume EUR 0.2 per share, you are clearly saying that this is in line with the ECB guidelines. Should this be a Board proposal, would that be the dividend that will be paid out in May, so it's not that you're paying one part now and one part in September? Is it correct? Yes, it's correct. We will pay out EUR 0.2 in May on the profit made in 2020. Thank you for this clarification. The second follow-up I have is on, could you kindly repeat the guidance you provided both on interest margin and non-interest income, which was not very clear, according to me, and the guidance you gave on the growth for insurance and assets under management masses, volume. Insurance, you said 3% and 5% for asset management. Did I understand correctly? You understood correctly. Meaning? Let me start from this last follow-up. The insurers inflows, we expect them to go up about 3%, whilst the assets under management inflows, if markets perform on a regular basis, is 5%. This 5% and 3%, is it just the new inflows, the new production, or do you also factor in the market? It's just the inflows. The guidance on the NII. NII, we expect it to grow about 2%, and Non-interest Income also 2%, with a role of banking companies of about 2%, banking fees, and assets under management without performance fees, that ranges between 2% and 3%. We have insurance revenues or inflows. We expect them to be around EUR 66 million in 2021 too. Okay. On commissions from assets under management, you said that average assets in 2020 were negatively affected, starting from March, and then they picked up over the year. Assuming there's no market sell-off or very dramatic market sell-off, average assets should do better. You said 5% of inflows? It's 5% at year-end. Bear in mind, you have to spread it throughout the year. Mr. Morlini can then give you a detailed figure. Last question, if I may. On the quality of assets, on asset quality, according to you, what is reasonable to think, should the new support measures be removed? After how long is it reasonable to think that we will start see a deterioration in asset quality? Are we talking June as time horizon? Could it be a first moment in time where you could have a sanity check for asset quality? Well, it will very much depend on other measures as well, that might be put in place should things get worse. As things are standing now, we'll start seeing that after the summer, because I think that everyone's getting geared up for that timeline, and we'll see the effects in the second half of 2021, and then they will still be felt in 2022. This will go on. It very much depends on what inflows will be like to see whether or not we will be faced with a linear growth or a choppy one, depending on how economy will grow over the year. It's a strange year, if you wish, because there are stimulus assumptions, but also there are uncertainties as to the pandemic. Think of the virus variants. There are things that may speed up more or less the effect you were mentioning. Thank you very much. Very kind for answering the question. Next question is a follow-up with Fabrizio Bernardi with BESTINVER. I have a question on that, and could you give us an answer focusing on quality? We are used to having very strong trading profit, 2015, 2017, EUR 30 million, EUR 40 million, and even EUR 97 million of trading profit. Considering the Draghi effect, let's call it, could we expect Credem to have a very rich trading line in the first quarter of 2021? Is it too early to ask? Well, you said, talking quality, I would say that we are in such a situation characterized by uncertainty, where coming up with forecasts is very difficult. One thing could be true, or the reverse could be true, too. I prefer not to make any comment to tell you something that could be completely valueless because of the uncertainty of the scenario, of the backdrop we are now experiencing. It's not that we normally behave differently in the first quarter versus the other quarters. It depends on the actual situation. We always try to take home the value we can take home. With that type of margin, from trading, I prefer not to jinx it, so to say. Mr. Gregori, there are no more questions. Well, let me thank all of you then, and we'll talk soon again at the next time, at the next opportunity. Thank you.
