DLL supports Rabobank's Banking for Food and Banking for the Netherlands strategies by supporting manufacturers, distributors and end-customers within the Food Agriculture sector, both internationally and within the Netherlands. In 2016, the Food Agriculture business line of DLL grew to EUR 11.8 (11.1) billion and now represents 34% (31%) of the DLL portfolio. The leasing, factoring and consumer finance portfolio in the Netherlands decreased to EUR 5.9 (6.6) billion and now represents 17% (19%) of the DLL portfolio. This decrease in the Netherlands market is due to the aforementioned sale of Athlon Car Lease. External recognition DLL was honoured for its efforts, receiving the Vendor Finance Provider award from Leasing Life, one of the top leasing industry journals in Europe. The Vendor Finance Provider award recognises an asset finance lessor that has worked in conjunction with a manufacturer to provide tailored asset finance at the point of sale. The jury explains: 'Through DLL's high quality feedback in their endorsements from clients and their unconditional focus on the vendor partnerships, DLL far surpassed the competition within the Vendor Finance Provider category, making them the winner.' 2016 2015 Change 1,086 1,094 -1% 90 57 58% 816 568 44% 1,992 1,719 16% 616 601 2% 285 277 3% 31 38 -18% 932 916 2% 1,060 803 32% 0 10 -100% 101 85 19% 11 9 22% Bank tax and levy 11 10 10% Operating profit before tax 937 689 36% Income tax 197 191 3% Net profit 740 498 49% Loan impairment charges (in basis points) 30 25 20% Ratios Cost/income ratio exclusive regulatory levies 46.8% 53.3% Cost/income ratio inclusive regulatory levies 47.3% 54.4% Balance sheet (in EUR billion) 31-12-2016 31-12-2015 Lease portfolio 34.9 35.7 -2% Number of internal employees (in FTEs) 4,323 5,402 -20% Number of external employees (in FTEs) 352 422 -17% Total number of employees (in FTEs) 4,675 5,824 -20% Income up 16% Total income from the leasing segment rose to EUR 1,992 (1,719) million in 2016.
