Significant Restrictions 
 
Group's significant restrictions regarding the use of assets or the settlement of obligations, are those imposed by the
regulatory framework in which subsidiaries supervised for their capital adequacy, mainly operate. In particular, the
regulatory authorities request, where appropriate and depending on the nature of the company, the compliance with specific
thresholds, as in example the maintenance of a specific level of capital buffers and liquid assets, the limitation of
exposure to other Group companies and the compliance with specific ratios. The total assets and liabilities of the
subsidiaries operating in the banking, insurance and other mainly financial sectors with significant restrictions amount to
E 9,534 million (31.12.2015 E 9,877 million) êáé E 8,093 million (31.12.2015 E 8,406 million) respectively. In addition,
all subsidiaries are subject to the restrictions imposed by the regulatory framework (Codified Law 2190/1920 or a more
specific legislation depending on the nature of activities) regarding the minimum threshold of the share capital and equity
as well as the potential dividend distribution. 
 
Moreover apart from the cash withdrawals and free capital flows restrictions imposed by Legislative Act within 2015, and
any ministerial or other decision issued, impose restrictions to Greek subsidiaries of the Group, to move capitals out of
Greece. 
 
There are no protective rights for non controlling interest, which could restrict the Group's ability to use assets or
settle Group's obligations. 
 
Consolidated structured entities 
 
The Group consolidates six structured entities which were established to accommodate transactions related to securitized
loans issued by Group companies. Securitization transactions aim to raise liquidity by issuing bonds or other legal form of
borrowing. In all cases, the Group has concluded that it controls these companies since it has the power over their
activities and has a significant exposure to their returns. 
 
Bonds and other financial instruments which are issued by the consolidated structured companies are fully -owned by the
Bank with the exception of shipping and corporate (SME) loans securitization transaction through the company Alpha Shipping
Finance Ltd and Alpha Proodos DAC, where all the high-priority payment debt is held by third parties outside the Group. 
 
Depending on the criteria required for each securitized portfolio, the Group, without having any relevant contractual
obligation, proceeds in ad hoc repurchases of securitized loans. In addition, for the securitization transactions that are
in replacement period the Group proceeds with new securitization of loan portfolios transferring them to those companies,
in order to meet specific quantitative criteria related to the amount of debt securities. The intention of the Group is to
continue this practice. The table below presents the balances of debt securities or other form of debt issued per
consolidated special structure entity that constitute tools of raising liquidity.

Furthermore, on 31.12.2016, the Group had granted subordinated loans amounting to E 380.3 million (31.12.2015: E 344.8
million) to the structured entities for credit enhancement purposes of the securitization transactions. Further to  the
above loans, the Group has no contractual obligation to grant additional funding to the companies, except for Alpha Proodos
DAC and Alpha Shipping Finance Ltd to which the Group is required, if needed to grant additional subordinated loan.

Exposure to non-consolidated structured entities 
 
The Group, through its subsidiary Alpha Asset Management AEDAK, manages 27 (31.12.2015: 27) mutual funds which meet the
definition of structured entities and on each reporting date, it assesses whether it exercises any control on these
entities according the provisions of IFRS 10. 
 
The Group, as the manager of the mutual funds has the ability to direct the activities which significantly affect their
rate of return through selecting the investments made by the funds, always within the framework of permitted investments as
described in the regulation of each fund. As result, the Group has power over the mutual funds under management but within
a clearly defined decision making framework. Moreover the Group is exposed to variable returns, through its involvement in
the mutual funds as it receives fees for the disposal, redemption and management of the funds under normal market levels
for similar services. The Group also holds direct investments in some of the funds under management, the level of which
does not lead to a significant variability in the return compared to the respective total rate of return variability for
the mutual fund. Due to these factors, the Group assesses that for all mutual funds under management, it exercises, for the
benefit of unit holders, the decision making rights assigned to it acting as an agent without controlling the mutual
funds. 
 
The following table presents the figures of the mutual funds under Group's management, grouped by type of investments held.
The amounts shown include the total assets of the funds at the balance sheet date and the income recognized in the Group's
income statement during the year from the funds under management concerning fees for the disposal, redemption and
management services.

The Group's direct investment in mutual funds under management, has been recognized in Available for sale portfolio. The
carrying amount of shares held by the Group amounts to E 34.9 million (31.12.2015: E 34.8 million). The Group has also
entered into derivative transactions with the mutual funds that it manages as a counterparty. The carrying amount of assets
and liabilities of these derivative financial instruments amounts to E 41 (31.12.2015: E 5) and E 1,026 (31.12.2015:
E 1,185), respectively. It is noted that the Group has fully hedged its position in these derivatives. During 2016 an
amount of E 1.5 million (2015: E 4.2 million) was recognized in the Group's income statement as impairment losses over the
mutual funds of the available for sale portfolio that it manages. 
 
It should be noted that there is no contractual obligation for the Group to provide financial support to any of the mutual
funds under management nor does it guarantee their rate of return. 
 
In addition, the Group manages Alpha TANEO Ventures Capital Management Mutual Fund through its subsidiary Alpha A.E.
Venture Capital Management -AKES. The unit holders of this mutual fund are the Bank owning 51% and the New Economy
Development Fund S.A owning 49%. Both parties mutually control the mutual fund and as a result the Group's investment in
Alpha ÔÁÍÅÏ Á.Ê.Å.S is measured under the equity method. 
 
The carrying amount of the Group's investment on 31.12.2016 amounts to E 3.2 million (31.12.2015: E 3.3 million) and is
included in Associates and Joint Ventures. The Group's share of Alpha TANEO ÁÊÅS profit or loss is presented in note 19.
Company's total assets amounted to E 6.5 million as at 31.12.2016 (31.12.2015: E 6.3 million). The Group's commission
income for the management of the mutual fund for 2016 amounted to E 163 (2015: E 517). The Bank has undertaken the
obligation to participate in additional investments in the Mutual Fund amounting up to E 0.3 million. This commitment along
with participation's carrying amount represent the maximum exposure of the Group to Alpha TANEO AKES. 
 
The Group also participates in other structured entities through investment in private equity mutual funds which are not
managed by it, as well as in companies whose operation involves the issuance of asset-backed securities through its
investment in their securities. The following table presents the abovementioned Group's investments.  As indication of the
size of the structured entities the total assets of the private equity mutual funds according to the most recent available
financial statements and the total nominal value of the issue of asset backed securities are given.
