voestalpine: Austrian based steel company voestalpine announced that is not affected in Austria by the current throttling of gas supplies from Russia via the Nord Stream 1 pipeline in the Baltic Sea. The Austrian production sites are currently receiving most of their required gas volumes via the Transgas pipeline running through Slovakia. The Group is also thoroughly prepared should there be a further reduction or complete stop in gas supplies from Russia. Contracts for alternative supply volumes have already been signed, with voestalpine starting to fill its own gas storage facilities in May. At voestalpine, natural gas is primarily required for heat treatment processes and for the rolling mills in the steel plants, above all in Linz, Donawitz, and Kapfenberg. The recent amendment to Austria’s Energy Intervention Powers Act (EnLG) now allows the voestalpine Group to build up its own stores of natural gas. In May 2022, the voestalpine Group contracted its own gas storage facilities for the first time. The Group will store up to 1.5 TWh of gas at storage facilities including RAG Haag and Haidach. This volume is sufficient for three months operating at full capacity, or correspondingly longer at reduced capacity. These facilities are currently half full and scheduled to be completely filled by mid-July 2022.

RBI: Raiffeisen Bank International AG (RBI) has securitized a loan portfolio worth Euro 1.8 bn. The portfolio consists of corporate loans mainly in Germany, Slovakia and Austria. In this synthetic securitization, the portfolio was split into a senior, a mezzanine and a junior risk position. The credit risk of the mezzanine tranche was assumed by an international institutional investor. RBI retains the credit risk of the junior and senior tranches. Thanks to this securitization structure, the transaction has no impact on customer relations. At group level, the transaction will strengthen the common equity tier 1 (CET1) ratio by approximately 8 basis points. "Securitizations are an important instrument to strengthen our capital ratio. This transaction benefits from the trustful relationship, which we built over the years with investors. The structure does not affect our customer relationships and supports the growth of RBI Group through the transfer of risk," said RBI CFO Sabine Abfalter.
RBI: weekly performance: -2.00%
