We believe Romanian consumers are seeking transparent, fast and convenient alternatives, and our app-based approach directly addresses that demand."
Addiko Bank plans to expand its product portfolio based on customer feedback and market developments, exploring new digital products for both retail consumers and SMEs.
The group consists of Addiko Bank AG, the fully-licensed Austrian parent bank listed on the Vienna Stock Exchange, and six subsidiary banks. As of mid-2025, the group's subsidiaries serviced approximately 0.9 million customers in CSEE.
