Interim Report for the period January - September
2023
“We delivered a very strong third quarter, where net operating
profit climbed by 72 per cent to EUR 19.1 M from the corresponding
quarter of last year. The improvement in earnings was driven
primarily by rising net interest income.
“We expect that the upturn in interest rates that has benefited
our net interest income in recent quarters will now fade and that
we will see a stabilisation in interest rates. Despite rising
interest rates, we are not yet seeing any deterioration in the
quality of our loan portfolio.”Peter Wiklöf, Managing
Director

2022
- Net operating profit increased by 17
per cent to EUR 41.5 M (35.5). Excluding a divestment gain in the
