INFORMATION ABOUT ACTIVITY OF BANK MILLENNIUM AND CAPITAL GROUP OF BANK MILLENNIUM S.A. IN 3Q25/9M25
FINANCIAL RESULTS - KEY POINTSBank Millennium S.A. Capital Group's ('BM Group', 'Group') reported net profit of PLN345 million in 3Q25 (up 4% q/q) and PLN855 million in 9M25 (up 56% y/y) translating into annualised quarterly ROE of 15.0% and 14.2% ROE in 9M25. 3Q25 was characterised by a relatively small number of extraordinary items and the still relatively elevated, although dropping, costs related to FX-mortgage portfolio. In 3Q25 the latter totalled PLN399 million after tax while in 9M25 they amounted to PLN1,492 million, dropping 17% y/y.
Core operating performance remained solid, generating the lion's share of this strong quarterly and year-to-date result. Total loans were marginally up in 3Q25 but growth in the corporate book accelerated further (+6% q/q) with y/y growth rate at 12%. Investment loans accounted for 42% of newly originated loans in 3Q25. In contrast, retail book showed negative q/q and y/y dynamics due to a combination of fast contracting FX-mortgage portfolio and low, although accelerating, origination of PLN mortgages. These more than offset the continuing solid origination of consumer loans. Liquidity surplus increased further with deposits up 5% q/q and up 12% y/y while L/D ratio reached a new low of 58%. Number of active retail clients remained in a steady uptrend (3.234 million, up 4% y/y), number of active digital clients crossed the 3 million threshold while volume of investment products grew 9% q/q to over PLN14.2 billion. Within these, funds managed by Millennium TFI, a mutual fund company, exceeded PLN10 billion.
Steady reduction of risk related to legacy FX-mortgage book continued. Inflow of new court cases against the Bank continued to slow (>900 cases in 3Q25 vs. 2024 quarterly average of 1.5 thousand), while the number of amicable settlements increased to over 1.2 thousand in 3Q25. To date, over 29 thousand such settlements took place, representing nearly half the number of active FX-mortgage loans at the end of 2019, when 'saga' started. The number of active claims against the Bank continued to decline while the ratio of legal risk provisions to gross active book crossed the level of 150%. 3Q25 net profit without FX-mortgage related costs would amount to PLN743 million, down 7% y/y, while 9M25 adjusted net profit would stand at PLN2,347 million, up 2% y/y.
Capital ratios improved in the period (group TCR at 16.0%, T1 at 14.4%) as the Bank / Group recognised in regulatory capital 1H25 net profit. This largely offset the increase of risk weighted assets. Capital buffers and MREL surpluses remained solid.

Key developments in the period
The key developments in 3Q25 were as follows:
- Number of active digital users exceeded the 3 million threshold in September 2025. This represents a growth of 188 thousand users or 4% year to date and compares with 2.86 million users in the same period last year. Bank Millennium's mobile app is the main access channel to our offer for most of customers. Over 70% of digital customers are using only the mobile app for their banking activity.
- Assets managed by Millennium TFI, a mutual fund company, exceeded PLN10 billion level in September after a 31% growth year to date. Number of customers increased to over 200k. Customers' assets totalled over PLN14 billion and grew 29% year to date.
- NII remained resilient to interest rate changes with no change in the quarter and with 9M25 NII up 7% y/y on a reported basis (up 3% y/y without credit holiday impact) despite four cuts of NBP's reference rate (combined effect of 100bps).
- Growth in the corporate book including leasing and factoring accelerated to 12% y/y with companies loan growth at 17% y/y. Origination totalled PLN3.4bn (up 22% q/q) with loans up 15% q/q and share of investment loans at 42%.
- Origination of PLN mortgages in 3Q25 nearly doubled q/q to PLN1.1 billion (disbursement) with market share in sales increasing to 4.4%. Though still below levels in the respective period last year, the growth marks a return of the trend that should over time contribute to a stabilisation of portfolio of PLN mortgages (down 2% q/q in 3Q25). Origination of cash loans remained very strong with PLN1.9bn originated in 3Q25 and market share of 10.0%.
- Capital ratios improved in 3Q25 following the inclusion of 1H25 net profit into regulatory capital. This largely offset the increase of risk weighted assets (i.a. amortising securitisation and increasing share of corporate lending) and as a result Group TCR increased to 16.0% while T1 to 14.4% with surpluses over the required regulatory levels solid at 4.2p.p. and 4.6p.p. respectively
Substantial and extraordinary P&L items
3Q25 saw a very small number of substantial and extraordinary items affecting the results. As in previous quarters, FX-mortgage related costs had a material negative impact on the results (for a comment on change of presentation and detailed breakdown refer to a separate section in this report). PLN45 million provision for consumer protection related costs burdened other operating costs line (OOC). Nearly a half of the PLN14 million provision for unused holidays created in 2Q25 was reversed.
Last, but not least, the tax line saw a recalculation of effective annual tax rate (ETR). Dropping from 34.58% used in 1H25 to 28.99% in 9M25, the change largely reflected a higher proportion of tax deductible items in FX-mortgage related costs. More details are available further in the report (note 11).
FX-mortgage portfolio and related costs
Total costs related to FX-mortgage portfolio
Following presentational changes introduced in 1H25 financial statements, the bulk of FX-mortgage related costs are now presented in P&L line "FX legal risk related costs" with the balance included in other operating costs (legal costs) and other admin costs (chiefly costs of legal firms).
All-in quarterly P&L costs related to FX-mortgage portfolio originated by Bank Millennium (legal risk provisions, costs of amicable settlements as well as legal and court costs, including legal representation costs or penalty interest), dropped 19% q/q to PLN442 million pre-tax (PLN399 million after tax) and continued to be a material drag on the core business of the Group. In 9M25 these costs totalled PLN1,609 million pre-tax (PLN1,492 million after tax) and were down 32% y/y. All items were visibly lower than in the same period last year.

Legal risk provisions
Total cost of provisions against legal risk related to FX-mortgage portfolio ('FX-mortgage provisions') amounted to PLN485 million pre-tax in 3Q25 with PLN394 million (down 16% y/y) attributable to FX-mortgages originated by Bank Millennium. Post-tax cost of FX-mortgage related provisions attributable to portfolio originated by Bank Millennium totalled PLN359 million in 3Q25 vs. PLN425 million in 3Q24. In 9M25, pre-tax cost of FX-mortgage related provisions attributable to portfolio originated by Bank Millennium totalled PLN1,314 million (PLN1,252 million after tax) compared to PLN1,496 million (PLN1,091 million) in the comparable period last year.
In 9M25, further provisioning was driven by updated inputs into the Bank's provisioning methodology, reflecting factors not related to the inflow of court claims, such as additional costs incurred upon invalidation verdicts of the loan agreements and present value of future losses.
Quarterly provisions against legal risk of FX-mortgage book (PLNmn)
At the end of September, the balance sheet value of provisions for the portfolio originated by Bank Millennium was at the level of PLN6,938 million (an equivalent of 150% of the grossed-up active FX-mortgage book) and at PLN838 million for the portfolio originated by former Euro Bank. The y/y change of the balance of provisions for loans originated by Bank Millennium (drop of PLN734mn) contrasted with the respective12-month P&L charge of PLN1,974 million. This was mainly due to the much increased use of these provisions which amounted to PLN2,584 million in the last 12-months. Allocated provisions, i.e. decreasing gross balance sheet value of the respective loan books, stood at PLN3,982 million for portfolio originated by Bank Millennium and PLN491 million for portfolio originated by former Euro Bank.

Claims against the Bank/Group
On September 30, 2025, the Bank had 18,950 loan agreements and additionally 2,334 loan agreements from former Euro Bank under individual ongoing litigations (excluding claims submitted by the Bank against clients i.e. debt collection cases) concerning indexation clauses of FX mortgage loans submitted to the court. A relatively small proportion of these (~23.0%) had been filed by borrowers who had repaid their FX-mortgages entirely or converted them into PLN mortgages at the date of submitting the court case (~29% at the end of September'25), although they represent a much higher share of recently filed cases (>50%).
3Q25 was another quarter when the number of active claims against the Bank dropped q/q, reflecting decelerating inflow of new cases, higher number of final verdicts and last but not least impact of amicable settlements of cases who were already during dispute in court. Since 3Q23 (quarterly peak with nearly 1,900 claims filed) the number of newly filed claims has been in a steady decline, similarly to trends observed on the market overall and among some peer banks. In 3Q25 the number of new claims dropped to 904 cases, the lowest level since 1Q21. This compares with the quarterly average of ~1,500 in 2024 and 1,700+ cases quarterly in 2023.

Settlements with borrowers
The Bank is highly focused on reduction of its FX-mortgage portfolio and the related risk and therefore continues to actively offer its customers amicable solutions (i.a. conversions to Polish zloty, prepayments, early repayments or collectively 'settlements') regarding FX-mortgages on negotiated terms. The number of settlements reached 1,209 in 3Q25 (2Q25: 1,087, 1Q25: 1,102, 2024 overall: 4,458), the highest level this year, and again well exceeding the number of new cases filed against the Bank. Over 29,000 settlements were reached since early 2020 when a more intensive effort started. These represent over 48% of the number of active FX-mortgage agreements at the start of the effort. As a result of these negotiations, final court verdicts and other natural drivers, in 3Q25 the number of active FX-mortgage loans decreased by 2,477 to 17,779, following the drop by 2,245 in 2Q25 and by 2,072 drop in 1Q25 and 7,852 in 2024 overall.
The number and share of in-court settlements continued to increase. In 3Q25, 867 such settlements were achieved (71% of all settlements in the period), compared to 579 in 2Q25 (53%) and 515 in 1Q25 (47%) and 1,565 (35%) in 2024 overall.

FX-mortgage portfolio
As a result of these trends, the pace of BM's FX-mortgage portfolio's contraction remained high with q/q decrease rate at 10% and the y/y one at 34% (in CHF terms, gross, w/o impact of allocated legal risk provisions). The share of total FX-mortgage book (gross loans less allocated legal risk provisions) in total Group's gross loans dropped to 1.0% at the end of September'25, while the share of FX-mortgage loans originated by BM dropped to 0.8%.

Legal and court costs
Legal, court costs and additional cost of final verdicts, booked in admin costs, other operating costs and partially in the newly introduced P&L line, totalled PLN49 million before tax this quarter (9M25: PLN295 million) and were much lower than the comparable cost in 3Q24 and 9M25.
Results adjusted for FX-mortgage related costs
Summing it all up, excluding all FX-mortgage related costs in 3Q25 (PLN442 million pre-tax / PLN399 million after tax) the BM Group would post 3Q25 net profit of PLN743 million with respective adjusted 9M25 net profit of PLN1,609 million. This compares against adjusted 3Q24 net profit of PLN796 million and 9M24 adjusted net profit of PLN2,359 million.

(*) Without fair value adjustment of credit portfolio (PLN0.4mn in 9M25 and PLN3.2mn in 9M24), which is included in the cost of risk line
(**) Without extraordinary items, i.e. FX mortgage loan related costs/incomes (in other operating income/cost including indemnity from Societe Generale) and negative impact of credit holidays (PLN157mn in 9M24)
Net interest income (NII) in 3Q25 without credit holiday impact last year was flat vs. 3Q24 at PLN 1,466mn (a drop of 3% on reported basis). The NII showed resilience compared to the 98bps y/y drop of quarterly average 3M WIBOR. NII was flat q/q while 3M WIBOR dropped 47bps to 4.88%. Interest income was marginally down y/y on reported basis as the impact of lower NIM (contracting yield on loans outweighed flat yield on bonds and falling deposit costs) outweighed higher interest earning assets (IEAs) while interest costs were marginally up.9M25 NII totalled PLN6,848mn and was up 7% y/y on reported basis and up 3% y/y w/o 2024 credit holiday effect. Average 3M WIBOR in 9M25 was 5.36% vs. 5.86% in 9M24. Interest income was up 6% y/y on reported basis or up 3% while adjusted for credit holidays with interest income from bonds behind the growth. Interest cost was up 3% y/y with deposit costs lower y/y but higher other funding costs with EUR500mn issue in September'24 and cost of asset securitisations being major reasons.
NII excluding cost of credit holidays (PLNmn)
Net interest margin (over average interest earning assets) (NIM) averaged 3.95% in 3Q25 and was 18bps lower vs. the previous quarter and 44bps vs. 3Q24. Corresponding drops of average 3M WIBOR in respective periods were 47bps and 98bps.
9M25 NIM averaged 4.10% and was 26bps lower compared to 9M24 level, while the respective drop of average 3M WIBOR was 50bps. The above mentioned factors (interest rate cuts and cost of MREL bonds and asset securitisation transactions) as well as growing share of bonds in assets had an adverse impact on NIM whereas decreasing cost of deposits (down 22 bps during 12 months to 2.04% in 3Q25) and some improvement in bonds yields had both a positive impact partly offsetting the earlier mentioned factors.
Quarterly net interest margin (NIM)
Net fees in 3Q25 grew 9% q/q and with loan, card and bancassurance fees contributing most to the improvement.
9M25 net fees totalled PLN578mn and was 2% lower y/y mostly on lower bancassurance fees (down 54% y/y following the sale of majority stake in the bancassurance agency business to an external partner in 2023). Without bancassurance fees, total net fees would be up 9% y/y with the strongest 30% y/y generated by fees from investment products and 22% growth in card fees.
Reported core income, defined as a combination of net interest and net commission income, was slightly up in the quarter and down 2% y/y.9M25 reported core income reached PL4,892mn and grew 6% y/y. Adjusted for the impact of credit holidays in 2024 the y/y growth rate would be 3%.
Other non-interest income, which comprises FX result, results on financial assets and liabilities (without fair value adjustment on credit portfolio) and net other operating income and costs, amounted to PLN273mn in 9M25 and grew 54% y/y partly due to positive effects from the sale of a real estate and the revaluation of a participation in a company in 2Q25. Some costs related to court cases against FX mortgage loans borrowers (PLN139mn in 9M25, down from PLN293mn in 9M24) were booked in other operating costs and continued to negatively impact this line. Total operating income of the Group reached PLN1,750mn in 3Q25, was flat q/q and down 2% y/y on a reported basis, 9M25 level amounted to PLN5,166 and was up 8% y/y/.Operating costs (PLNmn) | 9M25 | 9M24 | y/y | 3Q25 | 2Q25 | q/q |

Personnel costs amounted to PLN339mn in 3Q25 and their y/y growth moderated to 12% from 23% in 2Q2Q. The 2% q/q drop was driven by a partial release of PLN14mn provision for unused holidays created in 2Q25.9M25 personnel costs totalled PLN1,008mn and increased 14% y/y, mainly as a result of wage inflation feeding through higher base salaries and also higher provisions for bonuses, holiday leaves etc. The Group continued to adjust the number of its branches and personnel to its needs, reflecting ongoing digitalisation of banking business and the growing importance of online channels while simultaneously keeping strong geographical presence through brick-and-mortar outlets. At the end of September 2025, the total number of own branches stood at 353 units with the y/y reduction at 15 units. Total Group's FTE's at the end of September 2025 amounted to 6,824, up 2% y/y and up 1% q/q. Without employees absent due to long leaves ('active FTEs'), the headcount was lower at 6,469 staff and grew at similar y/y and q/q rates of 2% and 1% respectively.

Other administrative costs (including depreciation) reached PLN288mn in 3Q25 and increased by 15% y/y. Higher IT and regulatory costs were the main reasons for the y/y growth. In contrast, advisory costs including legal costs were significantly lower than in the same period last year. The q/q growth of 4% and was mainly driven by a positive impact of a seasonal cost settlement with card company in 2Q25 (PLN37mn) presented in 'other cost' line but going forward this positive impact is likely to be lower due to the change of terms.
In 9M25 other administrative costs totalled PLN889mn and were 16% higher y/y. More than doubling costs of contributions to the Banking Guarantee Fund (BFG) (+ PLN70mn y/y) were the main reason behind this high growth rate. The growth was largely driven by a reinstatement of a fee for the Deposit Guarantee Fund (PLN55mn) after its suspension by BFG since second half of 2022. Additionally the other charge- Resolution Fund fee - also increased substantially, i.e. by 25% y/y. The y/y growth of other administrative costs without BFG would be 7%. Among the key groups of costs, the higher annual increase could be witnessed in IT and telecommunication costs. Legal and advisory costs were still a material item within other administrative costs. Legal costs relating to FX-mortgage portfolio remained significant (PLN76mn) but decreased visibly - 12% - y/y.
Cost-to-income ratio (C/I) for 3Q25 stood at 35.8% (reported) compared to 34.4% in 2Q25 and 31% in 3Q24. Cost-to-income ratio without extraordinary items mentioned above (mainly the cost of credit holidays and legal costs related to litigations/settlements with FX mortgage borrowers and with an even allocation of BFG costs) stood at 37.2% vs. 33.9% and 30.7% respectively.9M25 reported cost-to-income ratio reached 36.7% vs. 34.6% in 9M24, while the adjusted one 35.1% vs. 30.5% respectively.
Total cost of risk, which comprised net impairment provisions, fair value adjustment related to specified loan portfolios and result on modifications, bore by the Group increased to PLN113mn in 3Q25 from a negative PLN8mn in 2Q25. The change was driven by a low base effect (PLN86mn gain on sale of NPLs in 2Q25) and only small changes in risk models. Additionally, provisions for nonfinancial assets saw PLN10mn charge which was chiefly related to post court verdict FX-mortgage related receivables.Total NPL ratio marginally improved to 4.18% from 4.22% at the end of June 2025 and 4.63% at the end of September 2025. Retail NPL ratio marginally increased to 4.3% from 4.25% at the end of June 2025 and dropped compared to 4.56% at the end of September 2025, while in the corporate segment the it dropped to 3.7% from end of 2Q25 level 4.1% and end of 3Q24 level of 4.9%. Cost of risk in bps (i.e. net charges to average gross loans) in 3Q25 amounted to 53bps vs. -3bps in 2Q25 and 58bp in 3Q24.
9M25 risk charged totalled PLN194mn vs. PLN307mn in 9m24, with improving risk profile and higher gains from NPL sales (PLN86mn vs. PLN45mn). Retail segment charges totalled PLN84mn vs. PLN231mn in 9M24, while corporate/other PLN109mn vs. PLN76mn respectively. In basis points, 9M25 total risk charge stood at 32bps vs. 9M24 cost of 53bps, with retail segment risk charge at 19bps vs. 51bps and corporate/other at 79bps vs. 60bps respectively.
Provisions for legal risk of FX-mortgage portfolio and other cost related to court cases and settlements with FX-mortgage borrowers continued to be a significant, yet decreasing, burden for the Bank with a negative impact on its P&L. In 3Q25 they amounted to PLN485mn (including provisions for loans originated by former Eurobank) vs. PLN589mn in 2Q25 and PLN698mn in 3Q24, while 9M25 charges totalled PLN1,570mn vs. PLN2,131mn in 9M24. More details on FX-mortgage related charges and costs are presented in the preceding chapter of this report.The Group reported net profit of PLN345mn in 3Q25, 4% higher than in 2Q25 and 82% above the level in 3Q24. The q/q improvement was largely driven by lower CIT (see tax comment in note 11 of this report for details), while the y/y improvement was driven by better core operating performance and much lower FX-mortgage related costs. Adjusted for extraordinary items (i.a. FX-mortgage related costs and associated tax impacts) the Group would achieve net profit of PLN743mn in the period vs. PLN886mn in 2Q25 and PLN796mn in 3Q24.
9M25 reported net profit totalled PLN855mn and was 56% above the level in comparable period of the previous year. The improvement was driven by a number of factors such as improving core operating performance, lower FX-mortgage charges and no banking tax charge in the first five months of 2024. Adjusted, 9M25 net profit amounted to PLN2,347mn, 2% above the PLN2,297mn in 9M24.

Total net loans of Bank Millennium Group reached PLN 74,729 million as of September 2025, showing flat performance in the last twelve months and a slight 1% drop since the beginning of the year. Loans excluding FX mortgage loans were flat y/y and year to date. FX mortgage loans net of provisions decreased significantly over the last twelve months (down 45%), and the share of FX mortgage loans (excluding those taken over from Euro Bank) in total gross loans dropped substantially over the year to 0.8% from 2.2% a year earlier. This was partly due to the fact that most of the legal risk provisions reduce the gross value of the loans, apart from regular amortisation, early repayments, conversions to PLN, and enforcement of court judgments.
The net value of loans to households amounted to PLN 54,604 million on September 30 2025, reflecting a decrease of 4% y/y and a 5% drop since the beginning of the year. The contraction of this this portfolio was primarily due to the decline in the value of mortgage loans, both FX and PLN. Within the household loan segment, PLN mortgage loans amounted to PLN35,070 million and decreased by 6% y/y and 7% since the beginning of the year. Accelerating prepayments and low origination in 1H25 (PLN1.4 billion, down 59% y/y were the main reasons for these dynamics. 3Q25 brought a noticeable increase of origination to nearly PLN1.1 billion, however.
Mortgages: disbursement and market share in originations
Another component of the retail loans, consumer loans, showed a positive performance. The net value of consumer loans reached PLN18,806mn on 30 September 2025, increasing by 3% y/y and 3% since the beginning of the year. Origination of consumer loans was high and stable y/y in 9M25, reaching PLN5.4 billion which despite relatively high turnover of the portfolio translated into a 3% y/y growth of non-mortgage retail loans.

The net value of companies exposures amounted to PLN 20,125 million on 30 September 2025, showing a strong 12% growth y/y and nearly 12% since the beginning of the year). The growth of the loan portfolio was mostly visible in corporate loans sub-segment (up 17% y/y and year to date), while leasing portfolio increased 4% y/y and 3% year to date.
Debt securities
Value of debt securities reached PLN67,734 million on 30 September 2025, which means a significant increase of 40% y/y and a 25% growth year to date.
A dominant part of the debt securities portfolio (86%) were bonds and bills issued by the Polish State Treasury, other EU governments and National Bank of Poland (the central bank). The increase of debt securities portfolio was a consequence of assets/liabilities and interest margin management policy and was correlated with the much stronger growth of deposits versus loans. The share of this group of debt
securities in the consolidated total assets was at 44% vs. 40% at end of December 2024 reflecting a strong liquidity position of the Group.

Deposits, loans and advances to banks
Deposits, loans and advances to banks (including interbank deposits) stood at PLN494 million at the end of September 2025, which means an increase by 19% y/y (and a growth by 15% year to date) and it mainly refers to current accounts balances.

public sector
Deposits from banks
Deposits from banks, including credits received, as on 30 September 2025, amounted to PLN193 million. Value of this item decreased by 6% relative to the balance as on 31 December 2024, mainly in effect of a decline in balances of term deposits from financial institutions (not significant amounts in absolute terms), but the Group did not record any credits from financial institutions.
Provisions
The value of provisions as on 30 September 2025 was PLN3,600 million. The key component of this line were provisions for legal issues, (especially claims related to FX mortgage loan agreements not including the value of provisions directly allocated to the loan portfolio), amounting to PLN3,453 million.
Debt securities issued
Securities issued by the Group amounted to PLN6,764 million as on 30 September 2025 recording significant increase by, PLN639 million relative to the balance as on 31 December 2024. The increase resulted mainly from the PLN800 million issue of covered bonds issued by Millennium Bank Hipoteczny, the Bank's subsidiary.
In December 2022 the Bank issued Credit Link Notes ('CLNs') in the amount of PLN242.5mn within a synthetic securitisation transaction related to corporate loans.

In 2024, the Bank's subsidiary Millennium Bank Hipoteczny, a mortgage bank, issued covered bonds of total nominal value of PLN800 million and in 9M25 it issued covered bonds of total nominal value of PLN800 million.
Subordinated debt
The value of subordinated debt amounted to PLN1,556 million on 30 September 2025, and remained at almost the same level vs. 30 June 2025 (a slight difference results from interest accrued and paid). The subordinated debt line includes ten-year subordinated bonds in PLN at the total nominal value of PLN830 million maturing in January 2029 and ten-year bonds in PLN at the total nominal value of PLN700 million maturing in December 2027.
Equity
As on 30 September 2025, equity of the Group amounted to PLN8,809 million and recorded an increase by PLN1,163 million or 15% y/y (up 13 year to date).

STRATEGY IMPLEMENTATIONStrategy of Bank Millennium and the Bank Millennium Group - "Strategy 2028: Value and Growth" is a development plan for the coming years, focused on sustained growth in the retail segment, strengthening the Bank's position in the medium and large enterprises segment, and improving profitability. The Bank prioritizes digitalization, the expansion of its product offering, including investment and savings product, and the continuous enhancement of customer service quality.
In the third quarter of 2025, the Bank continued the implementation of strategic initiatives and actively monitored key business and financial goals.
(*) NPS for retail banking segment reported on quarterly basis and for corporate banking segment on annual basis; (**) Financial indicators reported cumulative after each quarter, i.e. year-to-date, versus 2024 full year result.
During the reporting period, a number of implementations were carried out to support the needs of both retail and corporate clients. The number of active digital users using the mobile app and online banking exceeded 3 million, marking a significant milestone in the execution of the "Value & Growth" strategy, under which the bank aims to have over 95% digitally active clients by 2028.
As part of the "To be and have" campaign launched in the third quarter, young influencers are promoting banking products such as the Millennium 360° Account, Profit Savings Account, and the mobile app, showcasing their practical applications. New features introduced in the mobile app include the ability to purchase eSIM cards with international data packages and to order cash delivery to a branch. Thanks to these new mobile functionalities, clients can now verify their identity on public administration and commercial platforms using biometrics or a PIN code. A new product, the "Your Goal" Savings Account, was also introduced, enabling convenient and automatic saving. Clients who save regularly benefit from higher interest rates.
In the area of corporate banking, Bank Millennium was one of the first institutions on the market to implement a digital e-signature in leasing area, enabling the leasing agreement process to be completed fully online. To expand its offering, the bank introduced the Development Loan. Corporate clients can also benefit from a multi-currency feature, allowing payments to be made directly from foreign currency accounts without the need for currency conversion. Companies that meet specific environmental criteria have access to KUKE S.A. green guarantees, which serve as loan collateral and facilitate access to financing.
Bank Millennium also continued its social and cultural activities, as well as support for employee initiatives. As part of its cultural patronage, the bank once again sponsored the "Złota Tarka" jazz festival. Another edition of the employee volunteer program "Our People" was also launched.
BUSINESS TRENDS AND HIGHLIGHTSBank Millennium cares about building positive customer experience at every stage of their cooperation with the Bank. Quality of experience is a fundamental premise in product and service design and after-sales service - across all contact channels.
The goal set out in Bank Millennium's strategy is to strengthen its position in the TOP3 of the best banks in Poland in terms of quality, measured by NPS - both in the retail and corporate banking segments.
For years, Bank Millennium has been consistently striving to ensure that the transition of customers to electronic service supports the quality of relations with the bank. We combine mobile app service with access to qualified telephone and branch advisors - in all business lines. The service of remote advisors has increased the convenience of access to the Bank's services and products. We make sure that both customers and employees are prepared for new digital solutions. The Bank implements projects focused on the customers' perspective in the area of education and security.
We planned customer and employee surveys for all product lines, business lines, channels, and segments. The surveys concerned:
satisfaction and loyalty monitoring,
brand awareness among customers,
evaluation of product concepts,
employees' perspective.
Bank Millennium has been conducting activities that directly affect customer satisfaction. We use the model of working with the voice of the customer in the retail network, which includes:results of the Mystery Shopper survey,
CSAT,
Google reviews,
analysis of complaints caused by branches.
We analyze the collected voice of the customer and work to eliminate the causes of dissatisfaction to improve the customer experience even more.
At Bank Millennium, managers are supported in managing the voice of the customer by a field team of CX Leaders. CX Leaders also work with advisors and pay attention to elements that negatively affect cooperation with the client. Thanks to increased work with the voice of the customer, in 2025 we can see a decrease in the number of complaints caused by branches, a stable level of customer satisfaction in the CSAT survey and a downward trend in negative Google reviews. Bank Millennium continues to work on simplifying the language of communication and the content of documents. We change the texts provided to customers from the moment they open an account, to the information on how to operate their products. Bank Millennium has continued to work on increasing the accessibility of its products and services for individuals with disabilities and functional needs. The Bank is working intensively with the Polish Bank Association to develop common accessibility standards. An important element of the work is to adapt bank documents to an appropriate format that will allow them to be read by people with diverse functional needs. Bank Millennium carried out training sessions during which employees could learn about the topic of accessibility and the guidelines to be followed during customer service and when creating documents.RETAIL BANKING
