Interim Report for the period January - September 2024
"We are reporting our best nine-month operating profit ever, at EUR 49.8 million (41.5), which generated a return on equity after taxes of 18.4 per cent (15.7).
"It has been nearly a year since market interest rates reached their highest levels, and we can see that declining market interest rates are negatively impacting net interest income. However, because of rising activity levels within our financial investment operations and our IT operations, net commission income and IT income during the quarter together rose more than the decline in net interest income. Our core income in the form of net interest income, net commission income and IT income thus increased by EUR 0.6 M or 1 per cent compared to the same quarter of 2023, reaching EUR 52.7 M (52.1).
"Hopefully, falling market interest rates will lead to a continued surge in activity levels in our society.”
Peter Wiklöf, Managing Director and Chief Executive
