Comment by Margus Rink, Chairman of the Management Board of Coop Pank:

"In April, the number of Coop Pank's customers grew at a record pace, thanks to which the deposit portfolio also grew rapidly, raising the bank's balance sheet total to over 1 billion for the first time.

Although the market was cooling at the beginning of the year and the demand for loans was modest, we can see that the situation is improving, and the new sales volumes of our loans have increased from month to month.

In April, Coop Pank's return on equity was 10.4%, the cost-income ratio was 59.1% and the bank is well capitalized.

In April, we launched an updated daily banking offer for private customers. Our goal is to make joining the bank easy and convenient – from now on, our customers can choose between three packages, one of them is free of charge and includes unlimited free payments. In addition, we added free purchase insurance to all private debit and credit cards and we changed Rahn package, which covers basic banking services, free of charge for the new middle age, ie 55 years and older.”
