Hypoport AG: EUROPACE maintains robust growth in the new year - Volume
of transactions in Q1 2013
15.04.2013 / 08:47
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Berlin, 15 April 2013: Growth in all product areas is keeping the
transaction volume on EUROPACE at the high level seen in the previous
quarter. The transaction volume on Germany's biggest marketplace for
financial products is also impressive on a year-on-year basis. Mortgage
finance remains unchanged, there was sharp growth in building finance
products and the biggest rise was in personal loans. Despite one-off items
falling out of the figures, transaction volume growth has remained robust.
'The growth rate in transactions is actually higher than is apparent from
the current figures because a large number of product partners were running
special promotions to attract customers in the comparative quarter of 2012.
When compared with long-term statistics, the level trend in the transaction
volume compared with the first quarter of 2012 is effectively a sharp
rise,' commented Thilo Wiegand, Chief Executive Officer of Europace AG.
Moreover, the level of business coming through from advisory activities in
the final days of the preceding year was lower than usual because of the
high number of public holidays at the end of 2012, which resulted in a
weaker January, although the following months more than compensated for
this.
Performance of the EUROPACE platform in the first quarter of 2013
In the first three months of 2013, the transaction volume was EUR7.192
billion, which was virtually the same as in the first quarter of 2012
(EUR7.253 billion), despite one-off items falling away. The volume of
mortgage finance transactions amounted to EUR5.534 billion (Q1 2012:
EUR5.726 billion). The transaction volume for personal loans rose by 13 per
cent to EUR0.311 billion (Q1 2012: EUR0.275 billion), while building
finance products were up by 7.6 per cent to EUR1.347 billion (Q1 2012:
EUR1.252 billion).
