Berlin, 13 October 2021: The Hypoport Group's platform-based business models recorded double-digit percentage increases in their operational key figures for the first nine months of 2021. These growth rates were once again well above those of the respective markets in which the businesses operate.

Credit Platform segment: In the first nine months of 2021, Europace increased its transaction volume* by a significant 16 per cent. The total volume climbed to €76 billion, while the transaction volume per sales day** advanced by 17 per cent to €403 million. Mortgage finance, which is by far the largest product group, saw its transaction volume grow by 20 per cent to €63 billion. In the second-largest product group, building finance, the transaction volume held steady at around €10 billion even though the market as a whole shrank slightly. The volume in the smallest product group, personal loans, went up by 13 per cent to €3 billion whereas the overall market experienced a significant downturn.

FINMAS, the sub-marketplace for institutions in the savings banks sector, increased its volume of transactions* by 28 per cent to more than €7.8 billion in the first nine months of 2021. In the cooperative banking sector, institutions used the dedicated GENOPACE sub-marketplace to generate a volume of €9.4 billion, an impressive jump of 69 per cent. Alongside these groups of banks, the volume generated by non-captive financial product distributors and private commercial banks also expanded at a much faster rate than the market, with increases of over 10 per cent and nearly 20 per cent respectively.

Private Clients segment: The volume brokered by Dr. Klein* advanced by 9 per cent to €7.4 billion in the first three quarters of 2021.

Real Estate Platform segment: The property valuation platform of Value AG and the property sales platform of FIO Systems AG improved their operational key figures by more than 20 per cent in the reporting period. The value of residential properties inspected and appraised by Value AG went up by 23 per cent to €22.7 billion. The value of the properties sold by FIO rose by 22 per cent to €12.7 billion. Dr. Klein WoWi, the property financing platform for the housing industry, increased its transaction volume by 21 per cent to €1.5 billion.

Insurance Platform segment: Data on the migration of the insurance portfolios from the individual solutions of acquirees to the centralised SMART INSUR platform has been published since the start of 2021. The portfolio volume amounted to €3.30 billion as at 30 September 2021, which is 20 per cent higher than at the beginning of the year.

Ronald Slabke, Chief Executive Officer of Hypoport SE, expressed his satisfaction with the Group's operating performance during the reporting period and gave the following assessment with regard to the currently muted market environment in the summer months: "Whereas the respective markets as a whole expanded only slightly, or even contracted, we were able to significantly increase the volumes on our B2B platforms in the first nine months of the year. In the case of our business models that help private individuals to purchase residential property, we found that it took much longer for properties to sell during the summer months even though the supply of new properties remained constant. Compared with pandemic-hit 2020, the summer season resulted in a noticeable slowdown in the market. Potential property buyers were evidently taking their holidays during this time. In the third quarter, this led to much fewer property translations than in previous years and thus to only a modest increase in transaction and lending volumes. Furthermore, the uncertainty surrounding the German election added to property buyers' hesitancy, particularly in the rental segment. By contrast, the housing industry and medium-sized companies in Germany took advantage of the modestly rising interest-rate environment to engage in interest-rate hedging and sought advice on how to access government funding. We have now diversified the Hypoport Group in such a way that our success is no longer dependent on short-term trends in one particular market."
