“Performance was good in the first quarter of the year and the Group’s operating profit more than doubled from the previous year to EUR 2.5 million. The improvement in profitability is a result of the moderate profit growth of the Wealth Management and Markets units and the Group’s reduced expenses. The assets under management grew by nearly 13 percent year on year to EUR 6.1 billion.” Maunu Lehtimäki, CEO, Evli Bank Plc
