Fortis to acquire Dominet, a Polish consumer finance specialist
Bericht
Fortis takes an important step in the international roll out of its consumer finance activities with the signing of an agreement to acquire 100% of Dominet, a Polish retail bank specialising in consumer finance.
The transaction will be subject to full regulatory approval, in particular the approval of the Polish Bank Supervisory Committee, and customary closing conditions.
Dominet is a full-service retail bank with 806 employees and a modern nationwide branch network in Poland. It occupies a strong position in the car finance segment and has a fast-growing portfolio of cash loans. Dominet also supplies other banking products to retail customers.
Dominet has the tenth largest branch network in Poland consisting of around 152 branches and franchises. It has privileged relationships with over 2,000 car dealers, including Poland’s largest network of used-car dealers operating under the name Autotu, a well-known brand.
Jos Clijsters, CEO Fortis Retail Banking comments: “International growth of our Retail Banking activities is a pillar of Fortis’s strategy, and therefore the acquisition of Dominet represents a step forward that will help us to expand our activities in the interesting Polish market. Dominet will be part of the Fortis structure and I trust our enhanced offering in Poland will benefit both existing and future customers. We warmly welcome the Dominet’s dynamic employees and franchisees to Fortis.”
Marc Luet, CEO of Fortis Consumer Finance Group, adds: ‘We are already rolling out our consumer finance skills in 7 European countries. Combined with our proven expertise in working with franchises, we will further develop the Polish distribution network, implementing a segmented multi-channel distribution model. The combination of Dominet’s distribution channels, products and market knowledge with Fortis experience will boost our presence in the Polish consumer finance market and increase our market share.”
