“In times like these, reliability is important and our results underscore this. We were able to improve the quality of our results and to keep our risk costs low. At the same time, we have posted growth in both our loan and deposit volumes and have remained a reliable partner to our customers. In addition, we have further strengthened our capital position, which enables us to both meet the challenges of a dynamic market environment and to make the most of opportunities that arise.”

Peter Bosek, CEO Erste Group

Founded in 1819 as the first Austrian savings bank, Erste Group went public in 1997 with a strategy to expand its retail business into Central and Eastern Europe. Since then Erste Group has grown through numerous acquisitions and organically to become one of the largest financial services providers in the Eastern part of the EU in terms of clients and total assets.
