Comment by Paavo Truu, Member of the Management Board and Chief Financial Officer:

"The world economy is facing a number of challenges, the effects of that also extend to Estonia. Estonian people and companies are already facing the fastest inflation in the EU area. In difficult circumstances, the importance of banks based on local capital is growing, and this is also confirmed by our growth figures.

In May, Coop Pank's loan and deposit portfolios continued to grow strongly and over the year bank's loan portfolio has increased by 50% and deposit portfolio by 36%. We see that both private individuals and entrepreneurs trust us, because we are able to offer useful and flexible solutions even in difficult circumstances, and the profits earned will continue to support the Estonian economy.

Coop Pank earned a net profit of 1.9 million euros in May, return on equity was 19.1% and a cost / income ratio was 50.5% in May.”
