Līdz ar to – ja galvenais cēlonis pārāk augstajām kredītu procentu likmēm Latvijā ir pārāk zemā konkurence, tad situāciju pēc būtības var atrisināt tikai jauna, nopietna spēlētāja parādīšanās tirgū, kas ļautu esošajiem tirgus dalībniekiem sajust reālu konkurenci. Kamēr tas nenotiks, turpināsim mocīties. Latvijas kredītņēmēji – ar vienām no augstākajām likmēm eiro zonā, Latvijas noguldītāji – ar zemāko atlīdzību par uzkrājumiem bankās.

One step from acquiring the banking license

Based on the communication we have had with the Bank of Latvia, INDEXO considers that the receipt of the credit institution license is subject to the raise of additional capital of 12.5 million euros.

NDEXO team believes that this is the last essential prerequisite for obtaining the license.

This exceeds the IPO plan of raising 11 (6+5) million euros during the first 24 months of operations. However, the increased amount of capital raised now would make us independent of further capital raising.

Note: Bank (credit institution) license is subject to authorization granted by the European Central bank.

Current capital raising plan

Capital raising plan at the time of the IPO

Even small market share will generate significant profit

Forecasted Net profit development

  • -

Main differences versus IPO assumptions:

· ECB requirement of 12.5 million is higher than IPO forecast of 11 million and more dilutive as contributed up front. Higher capital at launch helps to catch up with planned lending volumes:

· Longer licensing process and higher IT expenses than initially planned;

· While lending and deposit volumes are expected to remain similar, the projected profitability of the INDEXO group in 2027 has improved due to the favourable interest rate environment.

Detailed information on the issue will be available after approval of the Bank of Latvia and publication of the issue prospectus. Please refer to the prospectus (when available) before making any final investment decisions.

Risks

1 INDEXO

Investment in INDEXO comes with pension risk

Business risks

Price competition

Regulatory caps on fees and competitor action could continue driving down fees, thus decreasing profitability.

Customer retention

Customer retention could decrease due to better sales and more attractive products of other market participants.

The INDEXO business case is very robust even in the face of much lower customer retention rate.

Political uncertainty

The geopolitical situation is challenging and uncertain for the Latvian economy due to the war in Ukraine.

Legislation risks

Changing contribution rate

Current 6% gross salary contribution into pension 2nd pillar system could be decreased due to an economic downturn. For example, during 2008 crisis it was cut to 2%, but reversed back up in 2013. Due to strong client acquisition record, INDEXO business case is very robust even in the case of contribution cuts.

Investment in INDEXO comes with banking risk

Entry in new market

INDEXO has created a brand with a strong reputation and an existing customer base that trust the brand and team behind it. The brand will help to enter the market, gain trust and show the public that they have already once challenged the market and is ready to do it again.

INDEXO has established strong client acquisition process that also will be used for acquiring new clients for the bank.

Banking license

INDEXO team regularly consults with the FSA and discusses the business plan and at this stage management understanding is that there are no conceptual objections thus the risk of not obtaining a banking license is small.

Additional capital requirement to support growth

INDEXO will follow conservative capital requirement ratios but in case of need, INDEXO IPAS will support needed capital requirement.

IT infrastructure

INDEXO Bank will be developed as a highly digital bank, largely relying on its IT infrastructure and its security. Appropriate solutions must be implemented to guarantee smooth operation and safety. INDEXO plans to outsource reliable IT solution providers and hire experienced professionals in-house.

Bank associated risks

The banking business is associated with many risks that must be managed daily - credit risk, market risk, liquidity risk, compliance risk, operational risk, AML and others. Appropriate processes for risk management will be designed in accordance with best practices and local regulations.

INDEXO will perform regular risk assessment.

Why to invest in INDEXO shares?

INDEXO is a company with good growth potential

It is very easy everybody will be able to become a shareholder
