Anas Abuzaakouk, CEO, commented on the financial results as follows: "In the first quarter, we delivered strong results with a net profit of €167 million and a RoTCE of 24%. We generated a significant amount of capital during the quarter, increasing our CET1 ratio by 90 basis points to 15.6% and our excess capital to € 623 million. This already takes into account the deduction of the deferred dividend of € 92 million for the first quarter of 2024. We have earmarked our excess capital for the acquisition of Knab Bank, which we signed earlier this year, as well as for further M&A, which is at an advanced stage. These strategic opportunities not only offer us high added value in terms of earnings, but will also allow us to further expand both our Retail & SME business and our presence in the DACH/NL region. Today, I am more excited than ever about our future growth opportunities."

@Altior_mons always depends on where the money went instead. There have been a few companies that have done better for a "long time". 🤷‍♂️

@7Trader oh yes, but as they say, more is better than less (I just don't have the capital)

27.5% withholding tax and 25% capital gains tax. Austria and Norway🫣 that's the only downer, otherwise €5 dividends are great!

@Black-Panther-21 only that at Bawag NO withholding tax is deducted from the dividend payout 😉
