Margus Rink, Chairman of the Management Board of Coop Pank, comments the results:
“In recent quarters, we have seen positive signs in the economic environment – a slowdown in inflation, declining interest rates, and stable energy prices. Unfortunately, the past few months have also brought news of trade wars, which mainly affect the global economy, but they have also caused concern among local businesses. At the end of last year, we saw that, after a long wait, entrepreneurs had dusted off their investment plans and started to take action again, now, however, we can once again sense a decline in their confidence.
Despite this, the declining interest rate environment offers good opportunities for investment and reduces financing costs for both legal entities and private individuals. For the bank, it means a drop in interest income, which can only be compensated by growing business volumes.
In the first quarter, Coop Pank grew its business volumes at twice the rate of market growth – with solid increases in the number of clients, as well as in deposits and the loan portfolio. By the end of the quarter, Coop Pank held a 6.3% market share in deposits and a 6.6% share in loans.
Growth in business volumes, the high quality of the loan portfolio, and effective cost control resulted in a strong net profit for Coop Pank in the first quarter: 7.9 million euros. The bank’s cost-to-income ratio for Q1 was 49% and return on equity was 14.7%.
According to recent research by Kantar Emor on the Net Promoter Score (NPS) of Estonia’s largest service companies, Coop Pank is the most recommended bank in Estonia.
In March, Coop Pank issued covered bonds for the first time on the Irish Stock Exchange, in the amount of 250 million euros with a maturity of four years. This was the initial tranche of a 750 million euros covered bond program. The bank’s first international covered bond issuance provides Coop Pank with an additional long-term and stable funding source, which will be used to support the growth of businesses operating in Estonia.”
