2 Market views after ECB more curve steepening and wider Bund spread Rather than repeat what the ECB did yesterday, we refer you to our ECB review here. Instead, we outline our view on the EGB market following the ECB meeting. Tapering theme not dead: Although Mario Draghi tried his best to convince the market the move from EUR80bn to EUR60bn a month should not be seen as tapering, we believe this theme will resurface throughout 2017, adding to the steepening of the yield curve. Lower QE purchases at the long end also add to steepening 10Y30Y. Bund asset swap set to widen: Although buying below the depo rate will take place only if necessary and more longer dated bunds are approaching the ISIN limit, we doubt the Bundesbank will have any choice but to do so. This widens the pressure on the asset swap curve. We go long the Bund spread (see page 3). Ineffective changes to the securities lending programme: The EUR50bn in additional collateral (cash) should in isolation ease the repo squeeze for Bunds. However, the current -70bp is not a floor but rather the cheapest level at which it will be activated. Over year-end in particular, the new tool might have little impact as cash will add to banks balances adding to the resolution fund bill. This is not the case when bonds are used as collateral. We doubt the new measure will ease tightness in the German repo market significantly. Little help to periphery: The unchanged issue/issuer limit and unchanged capital key mean that Portugal and Ireland in particular will see no extra help from continued PSPP buying in 2017 and possibly Furthermore, Italy is vulnerable due to the political situation and recent rating concerns since Moody s changed its outlook. In our view, the ECB offered little help to Italy. We enter Q1 with a cautions stance on the periphery. We look for a wider Bund spread Source: Bloomberg, Danske Bank Markets We doubt the repo squeeze will disappear Source: Danske Bank Markets 2
3 Buy the Bund or DBR 0% 08/26 vs We do not expect the change in the repo to have a significant impact on solving the squeeze in the Bund spread. There were big moves in the Bund, Bobl and Schatz when we rolled into the March future as seen in the chart, so optically the spread looks cheap. If we look at the underlying bonds, the move is somewhat more modest. Looking at the underlying bonds, there is a solid carry being long DBR 0% 02/26 relative to swap it rolls some 9bp up the ASW-spread curve. Furthermore, there is a bit of seasonality in ASW spreads, with the Bund/Bobl/Schatz spread widening in January. We buy the Bund spread@38.5bp or DBR 0% 08/26 vs swaps@39bp Schatz Bobl Schazt spread Jan-14 May-14 Sep-14 Jan-15 May-15 Sep-15 Jan-16 May-16 Sep-16 Source: Bloomberg, Danske Bank Markets The 5Y and 10Y ASW-spread - Germany bp DBR 1 15AUG2025 DBR 0 09APR2021 DBR 0 15AUG Nov-15 Jan-16 Mar-16 May-16 Jul-16 Sep-16 Nov-16 Source: Bloomberg, Danske Bank Markets 3

6 The calendar next week: look out for 2017 funding and issuance outlooks Supply: This is the last week in 2016 with supply in the EGB market. We have Austria tapping for the last time in the 10Y segment. Year to date it has issued bonds for EUR21.8 bn and the funding target is EUR22.0bn; hence, slightly prefunding this year in Austria. Spain will tap in the 5Y and 10Y segment. Funding and issuance outlook 2017: Next week, a number of 2017 funding and issuance outlooks are scheduled to be published. Austria, the Netherlands and France are already in the calendar and Ireland might also publish its Q1 outlook next week. The Danish Debt office might publish its 2017 outlook late in the week.

11 Germany Standard & Poor s Standard & Poor s: 16 December Germany Moody's S&P Fitch Rating Aaa AAA AAA Outlook Stable Stable Stable Potential rating decision December Requirement for downgrade Downward pressure on Germany's Aaa rating could occur if we were to observe a prolonged deterioration in the government's fiscal position and/or the economy's long-term strength. We could lower our ratings on Germany if we observed a significantly weaker trend growth than we currently expect, translating into a marked deterioration in public finances, or if we perceived a weakening in the ECB's monetary flexibility. In addition, an unexpected surge in contingent liabilities, particularly from the banking sector, or contagion from a potentially re-intensifying eurozone crisis, could put pressure on the ratings if required sovereign support was significantly larger than we anticipate. However, we currently do not expect these scenarios to materialize over our outlook horizon. -A reversal of the declining trend in the general government debt ratio. Debt approaching 90% of GDP would start to put pressure on the rating. -Crystallisation of contingent liabilities, for example further state support to the banking sector or to other eurozone countries. As a member of the currency union, Germany is financially exposed to a re-intensification of the eurozone crisis. Source: Fitch, Standard & Poor s, Moody s 11
