Bonum Bank Plc: Half-Year Financial Report for 1 January -30 June 2021 – Business operations are developing steadily

Compared to the previous reporting period, Bonum Bank Plc’s operating income increased by 16.5 per cent. Its profit for the period was EUR 804 thousand being EUR 561 thousand in the previous review period. The balance sheet stood at EUR 1,024,680 (1,006,480) thousand. CET1 capital adequacy ratio was 23.3 per cent.

Both the card business and lending have developed well. The service centre, which was founded in Vaasa a year ago, has solidified its position within the Group as the provider of centralised customer service functions such as being in charge of the customer service of the cards and pre-processing different applications. The exceptional circumstances caused by the coronavirus pandemic continue to affect Bonum Bank’s external business operations, although there have already been some signs of recovery.

In January, S&P Global Ratings has affirmed Bonum Bank Plc’s long-term investment grade to ‘BBB’ and short-term investment grade to ‘A-2’. At the same time, the agency revised the bank’s outlook from negative to stable. The credit rating agency reconfirmed Bonum Bank Plc’s rating and outlook again in August 2021.
