“Evli’s operating profit for the third quarter was in line with our expectations and was nearly at last year’s level. Evli’s net revenue has increased by 13 percent and operating profit by 46 percent from the beginning of the year. The strong profit performance is to a great extent attributable to the good income growth of the Wealth Management and Markets units. Towards the end of the quarter, activity also increased in the Corporate Finance unit, and we expect that this will give positive effects towards the end of the year. Evli’s client assets under management increased by 11 percent on the corresponding period in the previous year to a net figure of EUR 5.5 billion, and EUR 6.6 billion including associated companies. On the basis of the current market conditions and strong start to the year, we anticipate that our earnings for 2013 will be an improvement on the previous year.” Maunu Lehtimäki, CEO, Evli Bank Plc
