Standard & Poor's has confirmed Raiffeisen's long-term and short-term credit ratings at "AA-" and "A-1+", respectively, highlighting the bank's excellent capitalization and solid credit quality. With a 17.9% market share in the Swiss mortgage sector, Raiffeisen reported a profit of CHF 641.6 million in the first half of 2024 and anticipates solid business development for the year, though results may not match the previous year's extraordinary levels.
On December 20, 1989, Rath went public in Vienna, raising ATS 86 million. The ATX TR index saw an average performance of 0.16% on this date, with the best performance recorded in 2011 at 3.00% and the worst in 2018 at -2.73%. Additionally, Andritz replaced Raiffeisen in the ATX five on December 20, 2010.
Heinz Huber's resignation as Raiffeisen CEO presents an opportunity for the bank to expand its corporate client business, which has been limited under his leadership. The new CEO should come from the corporate sector and aim to fill the gap left by Credit Suisse's exit, particularly in the middle market segment. Internal candidate Roger Reist is seen as a strong contender, but the board may also consider external candidates, despite potential concerns about their backgrounds.
The Raiffeisen Pension Fund is facing criticism for offering a mere 2 percent interest rate on retirement savings, significantly lower than competitors like UBS and Migros Bank, which provide 9 percent and 7.5 percent, respectively. The fund's weak performance is attributed to its target interest rate and coverage ratio policies. Following this turmoil, CEO Heinz Huber is set to leave, with no clear internal successor in sight.
The global economy in 2025 is marked by diverging trends, with the US showing resilience and growth, while Europe faces stagnation and uncertainty, particularly in the industrial sector. Switzerland's economy is expected to grow moderately at 1.3%, driven by a strong chemical and pharmaceutical industry, despite challenges from a strong franc and weak industrial demand. Political instability and delayed reforms in Europe hinder recovery, raising risks of a downward spiral in industry.
Heinz Huber will leave his position as CEO of Raiffeisen at the end of the year, transitioning to Chairman of the Board of Directors at Bündner Kantonalbank in July 2025. His tenure at Raiffeisen, marked by significant reforms and a failed super app launch, has been overshadowed by digitalization challenges and internal frustrations.
Peter A. Fanconi will remain president of Graubündner Kantonalbank until June 2025, after which Heinz Huber will take over as chairman starting July 2025. Huber, currently CEO of Raiffeisen Switzerland, succeeds Fanconi amid scrutiny related to a controversial credit concession involving an Austrian real estate group.
