Demand for our prospectus-based bonds was strong, leading to order reductions of several dozen percent. We recognise that euro bonds are an attractive option for retail investors in Poland’s debt securities market. Subscriptions for KRUK’s upcoming EUR 10m bond series will be open from 18 to 30 January 2024,’ . ‘We are continuously developing, optimising our operations, and undergoing digital transformation. As an international organisation, we continue to expand in the European markets that are key to our industry. In 2023, KRUK posted over PLN 3bn in recoveries and nearly PLN 3bn in investments. Our unwavering growth is supported by internal resources, excellent access to bank financing, and funds raised from bond issues.”
