Comment by Paavo Truu, Member of the Management Board and CFO of Coop Pank: "In November, Coop Pank's deposit portfolio showed again decent growth, increasing by 18 million euros in month and 22% in year. We can see that interest rates on deposits have reached their peak and interest rates on long-term deposits are already in a downward trend. In the money markets in general, we can also see a decrease in the price of various interest rates and securities, because the market is waiting for the European Central Bank to start lowering its interest rates to revive the economy. As a result, the euribor has finally reversed its downward trend, which benefits both private and corporate loan holders. In November, home loan and leasing portfolios increased at the fastest pace, but due to repayments of business loans, the loan portfolio remained at the same level as it was last month. Repayments of real estate development loans are a common trend at the end of the year, which this year has been amplified by the VAT increase that will be implemented from next year. This motivates home seekers to buy
homes in new developments this year, so as not to pay a 2% higher price next year. As several residential developments are being completed in succession and sales of apartments are going well, it also enables developers to repay loans. Over the year, the bank's loan portfolio has increasing by 19% and the quality of the portfolio remains good. In November, Coop Pank earned a net profit of 3.4 million euros, the return on equity was 22.3% and the cost-income ratio was 45%."
