MuniFin managed once again to improve its result in January-June 2017. Also the Finnish economy developed positively in the first half of 2017. The positive sentiment was evident in the municipalities’ economic situation, which was better than expected. This was reflected in a slight decrease in the demand for financing when compared to the previous year.
The interest in MuniFin’s financial services remained high in 2016. The total of loans withdrawn increased slightly year on year, and MuniFin’s market share grew.
New loans issued stood at EUR 2.9 billion, and the loan portfolio increased to EUR 20.9 billion.
The uncertainty of the customers’ operating environments had a surprisingly marginal impact on MuniFin’s operations. In the first half of 2016, MuniFin strengthened its position among its customers compared to the previous year.
New loans withdrawn in January-June amounted to EUR 1.5 billion and the lending portfolio grew to EUR 20.5 billion.
MuniFin made excellent progress in 2015, despite continuous changes. 2015 will go down in MuniFin’s history as a year of success amid great pressure for change.
