Banca IFIS S.p.A. :The BoD approves the 2017 draft financial statements and dividend proposal (€1/share).
Mestre (Venice), 6 March 2018 - The Board of Directors of Banca IFIS met today under the chairmanship of Sebastien Egon Fürstenberg and approved the draft financial statements for the year 2017 as well as confirmed the preliminary results announced on 8 February 2018.

The dividend will be paid through the authorised intermediaries with which shares are registered in the Monte Titoli system.
The comment of Banca IFIS Chairman Sebastien Egon Fürstenberg: "In 2017, the Banca IFIS Group has continued growing in the sectors it operates in: specialised corporate lending, which is increasingly key for Italy's growth and the health of its economic fabric; the sustainable management of non-performing loans; and the collection of savings. We also launched important projects on which the Bank will continue working over the next quarters, guided by the drivers of our day-to-day operations: control of risk-corrected profitability, of liquidity and of absorbed capital. We want to provide our customers with the solutions they need quickly, clearly and transparently: this is why digital services are crucial and we are investing in them. Finally, we once again raised our dividend-a sign of strength and a token of gratitude for our Shareholders, who continue appreciating our work and the projects the Bank is working on".
