Interest income grew by 4.6% year on year to PLN 4,052.1 million. The growth resulted mainly from a growing volume of loans and a change in the structure of the loans portfolio – increasing share of high margin products, with a simultaneous decrease in the share of mortgage loans in foreign currencies characterised by lower margin.
Interest expenses decreased by 11.9% in 2017, which was related mainly to lower interest rate of deposits and a large inflow of funds to current accounts.
