Bigbank's Financial Results for May 2023May 2023 was another successful month for Bigbank. Both the loan portfolio and the deposit portfolio continued to grow. The trend, according to which the deposit portfolio grew faster than the loan portfolio, also continued. This is justified by the fact that Bigbank is continuing to pass on the impact of the growing Euribor by consistently offering its deposit customers one of the highest deposit rates in the markets of its operation. At the end of May, Bigbank entered the Finnish market with a savings deposit product, which has so far gained great popularity among customers in Germany, the Netherlands and Austria. It is expected that the Finnish savings deposit will make a significant contribution to the group's deposit portfolio in the coming months. The relatively low volume of net loss allowances on loans and financial investments is also positive. With a loan portfolio that is more than a third larger than a year ago, thanks to the continued high quality of the loan portfolio, the volume of discounts has increased by only 3% compared to the same period last year in a five-month consolidated view. Bigbank's capital position also strengthened in May. Bigbank carried out a private placement of Additional Tier 1 Temporary Write-Down Notes (AT1 bonds), which turned out to be a complete success. The initial volume of 3 million euros was oversubscribed and the volume of the issue finally increased to 3.39 million euros.
