Segment reporting

Structure

External segment reporting reflects the organisational structure of VP Bank Group as of 31 December 2022 and as well as internal reporting to management. These form the basis for assessing the financial performance of the segments and the allocation of resources to them. 

VP Bank Group consists of the six organisational units “Intermediaries & Private Banking”, “Client Solutions”, “Chief Executive Officer”, “Chief Financial Officer”, ­ “Chief Operating Officer” and “Chief Risk Officer”. 

The four organisational units “Chief Executive Officer”, “Chief Financial Officer”, “Chief Operating Officer” and “Chief Risk Officer” are grouped together under the ­business unit “Corporate Center” for segment reporting.

Revenues and expenditures as well as assets and liabilities are allocated to the business units based on the responsibilities for the clients and the originator principle. Insofar as a direct allocation is not possible, the positions in question are reported under Corporate Center. Consolidation entries are also included under Corporate Center.
