6 Business Market - Threat from established Players AIB standing as primary Business Bank Relationship-based market Confident of sustaining our leadership position - recent momentum reinforces that confidence Retail Market - Threat from New Players (Den Danske / HBOS / Fortis) AIB underweight in many Retail product lines Less “incumbent” mindset - more attacking posture Focus on Personal Deposits, Consumer Lending, Life & Pensions, General Insurance & Mortgages Competitive threats are manageable Market repositioning in 2006 as early execution of this strategy
