The total portfolio decreased by 2% to EUR 34.9 (35.7) billion.
DLL's loan portfolio (financial leases only) amounted to
EUR 31.8 (29.7) billion. 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.'

Income up 16%
Total income from the leasing segment rose to EUR 1,992 (1,719)
million in 2016. Net interest income was more or less stable
at EUR 1,086 (1,094) million. Net fee and commission income
increased to EUR 90 (57) million as a result of the higher
activity level. Other income mainly consisted of sales results
on end-of-lease assets and income from operational lease
contracts. In December, the sale of Athlon which resulted in
a book profit of EUR 251 million contributed largely to the
increase in other income. Consequently, other income rose to
EUR 816 (568) million.
