Business Development

New Mortgage Business

MünchenerHyp set a new record in 2017 as our volume of new mort­gage business exceeded € 5 billion for the first time. Our new bu­­siness grew by 2.5 percent as we made € 5.1 billion in lending com­­mitments (previous year € 4.9 billion), thereby reflecting a slightly faster pace of growth in our business.

Both of our main areas of business, private and commercial prop­erty financing, benefited from the good environment for property and the associated high demand for property financing seen dur­ing the year under review. For this reason, we are very satisfied with the development of our new business activities, which were able to expand as forecast

We were able to sustain our new business performance in the pri­vate property financing area at the previous year’s very high level in the intensely competitive market. We made loan commitments for a total volume of € 3.2 billion (previous year: € 3.3 billion). Our special sales campaigns in the spring and autumn of 2017 contributed to this success as each of them was met very favourably by our partner banks and customers. In addi­tion, the share of forward financing transactions developed fa­­vourably in view of considerations that the ECB’s loose monetary policy could be ending.

The volume of new lending commitments made to finance domestic private residential property brokered by banks within the Cooperative Financial Network was € 2.4 billion, basically unchanged from last year’s volume of € 2.45 billion. Sales generated by independent providers of financial services increased by 8 percent on a year-over-year basis to € 419 million. New business brokered by Swiss PostFinance totalled € 373 mil­lion, or about € 50 million below the previous year’s level due to intensifying price competition.

Our commercial property financing business was successful in 2017 and grew by 13 percent to € 1.9 billion (previous year € 1.7 billion).

We are particularly pleased that we were able to achieve these good results in a competitive environment characterised by shrinking mar­gins and competitors willing to take on riskier financing deals. For our part we succeeded in attaining comparatively attractive margins across the entire span of our new commercial property business without exposing the Bank to inappropriate risks.

We posted gains in our domestic, as well as our international bu­si­ness activities, especially in Great Britain, Spain and the Netherlands, which contributed to our good results. In addition, our re-entry into USA also made a favourable impression.

Furthermore, our new commercial property finance business be­nefited from the Bank’s new syndication strategy where we act as the underwriter for larger loans that are generally more margin-attractive. We then syndicate a volume of about € 200 million to other providers of financing, with a special focus on our Cooperative Financial Network’s syndication programme. Within the framework of the programme we enable the Volksbanken and Raiffeisenbanken to participate in commercial property loans we have made. This offer received a very favourable response.
