The eurozone still dominates the list of negative indicators in this year’s Top 1000 World Banks ranking, including non-performing loans (NPLs) and losses on capital. All five of Greece’s banks are in the top 25 for NPLs, but only one – Eurobank – is still a heavy loss-maker, as the rest have increasingly provisioned for their bad loans. Bank of Cyprus, rescued only in March 2013, tops the table for NPLs and features prominently in terms of total losses and losses on capital.
