Komerční banka Group Financial Results as of 30 September 2023
“In the third quarter, we paid close attention to the development of our new digital bank following its roll-out in retail banking in April of this year. Gradual enrichment of the offer available in the new KB+ application by the addition of simple, advantageous, and attractive services will let us increase the number of clients switching from the legacy platform. Our ambition is to see 100,000 clients enrolled in the New Era of Banking by the end of this year and to offer migration to the new digital bank to 1,000,000 clients during 2024,” remarked Jan Juchelka, Komerční banka’s Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer.
“Besides developing the new client proposition and technological systems of the Bank, the strategic transformation involves changes to the organisation of KB Group in order to make it more effective and efficient. In recent months, we have integrated operational functions of Factoring KB with those of the Bank, have been building a new sales force for KB Group based on the distribution network of Modrá pyramida, and we are streamlining development and marketing of consumer loans from a single centre for the whole Group. Successful implementation of our KB 2025 strategic programme will reinforce KB’s position as a leader in the New Era of Banking,” Jan Juchelka added.
