The demand for bonds, according to the data of the issuing agent AS “Signet Bank”, has exceeded the supply. Agris Evertovskis, Chairman of the Board of DelfinGroup, admits that the fact that demand exceeded supply at the time of the issue was a pleasant surprise.

DelfinGroup bonds were offered in a closed offer to up to 150 investors, both private and institutional, with a minimum investment of 10,000 euros. The subscription for the issue started on September 23, 2020 and ended on September 30, 2020. The issue was carried out in cooperation with the issuing agent “Signet Bank”.

“Despite the unpredictable conditions in the Latvian and global economy, we expect a strong last quarter of 2020 with significant demand for our services. Attracted funding of 3.5 million euros will allow us to significantly increase competitiveness in the Latvian market,” says DelfinGroup Board Member and CEO Didzis Ādmīdiņš.

“The issue has made it possible to attract new investors, as well as ensure a balance between the sources of attracted financing between the bonds and the Mintos platform,” says Kristaps Bergmanis, CFO of DelfinGroup.
