Current POS and ATM Penetration Benchmarks for Poland Vs. Europe Show a Big Gap and Suggest a Substantial Growth Potential - Banking Market In Poland 2008-2010 - CEE Banking Series.


DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c88767) has announced the addition of Banking Market in Poland 2008-2010 - CEE Banking series to their offering.

Another successful year.

Banking sector in Poland enjoyed dynamic growth in 2007. Both client loans and deposits increased substantially, recording annual change of 29% and 14% respectively vs. 2006. At the same time average interest margins barely changed, being supported by rising money market rates. As a result, the combined profit of commercial banks increased sharply by 29% to PLN PLN

Competitive landscape & new players.

The recently closed merger of Pekao/BPH produced a new market leader. Bank Pekao, a UniCredit subsidiary is controlling today ~16% banking assets and is a clear corporate banking leader (27% market share). On the other end more and more new players emerge on the market willing to build their own operations in Poland. Recent history shows that even a greenfield project may turn into success provided the business model is right and a highly motivated management team is there (case Polbank EFG EFG Electric Field Gradient

). At present there are 3 new big banking projects under development: Allianz Bank, Alior/C.Tassara and BWE/Innova. Apart of them there is also a group of other players (mostly from: UK, Iberia and Scandinavia) looking at possible acquisition targets / growth options in Poland.

Expansion of infrastructure.

Since 2005 most banks expand their physical distribution networks. Despite increasing role of remote channels, building a physical network is still the key for growth in Poland. Banks are increasingly penetrating middle-size cities and smaller markets with cost efficient franchising agency/concepts. If adding current development plans of banks, ~1600 new outlets could be opened during next year through Q1/2009 (+16% growth vs.12/2007). Also the payment infrastructure is likely to accelerate in response to positive trends in retail trade and services. Current POS (1) See point of sale and packet over SONET.

Good perspectives.

Despite worsening global economic climate, the Polish banking sector is likely to keep performing well in the mid-term perspective. Both client deposits and loans are expected to grow following the improving situation of households and excellent performance of corporate sector. Interest margins are likely to remain on the current (high) level, at least until the Monetary Policy Council (RPP RPP Report on Plans and Priorities

) keeps raising interest rates. The major threat is on the cost side. Growing infrastructure and employment together with substantial pay and rental cost increases are very likely to affect banks profitability.

Mid-term forecast:

Banking assets will keep growing at 13% p.a. through 2010. Considering increasing revenues, mounting costs and slowing F&C income, it can be expected that the overall profitability measures: ROE and CIR (Committed Information Rate) In a frame relay network, the average transmission rate in bits per second (typically Kbps) for a virtual circuit.
