Piraeus Bank’s net profit for the whole previous year totals UAH 29,8 mio compared to UAH 3,2 mio a year earlier.
The profit increase stems from SME lending activation as well as optimization of attracted resources costs and structure. As a result, net commission income increased 117% or UAH 93,3 mio in 2017, net commission income– on 41% or UAH 22,4 mio.
“Piraeus Bank has real and efficient banking business model – when the bank derives a profit from banking products and real sector lending, so not only from treasury bills, such as NBU certificates, or short-term liquidity management. For example, we plan to increase commission income 30% this year.
This justifies that the niche bank strategy direction was chosen correctly,” commented Piraeus Bank CEO Sergii Naumov.
