Lenzing: weekly performance: 7.05%

Wienerberger: The acquisition of Meridian Brick in North America is yet another step in Wienerberger's consistent pursuit of its own growth strategy focused on innovation and sustainability. With its pioneering product offer and a steadily growing portfolio, Wienerberger will be able to serve customers in the USA and Canada as a full-range provider of facade and building envelope solutions. To this end, the company relies on a sustainable, regional brand strategy which, at the same time, generates local value added at Wienerberger's production sites in North America. Together with General Shale, the Group's North American subsidiary, Wienerberger is introducing three new brands (Canada Brick, Michigan Brick, and Red River Brick), which will replace the production and distribution sites formerly operated by Meridian Brick in the USA and Canada. Moreover, the company is transferring well-established and highly reputed General Shale brands to former Meridian Brick sites, which are to enlarge its portfolio in the north-eastern, mid-Atlantic, and southern regions of the USA. These brands include Watsontown Brick, General Shale Brick, and Columbus Brick.
Wienerberger: weekly performance: 1.60%

Raiffeisen Bank International: Raiffeisen Bank International AG (RBI) has securitized a loan portfolio worth Euro 4.1 bn. It consists of loans to corporates mainly in Germany, Slovakia and Austria and is the largest portfolio which has been securitized by RBI so far. 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 international institutional investors. 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 ratio by approximately 21 basis points. "Securitizations are an important instrument to strengthen our capital ratio. We have chosen a structure that does not affect our customer relationships and supports the RBI Group’s growth through the transfer of risk," said RBI-CFO Michael Höllerer.
RBI: weekly performance: -3.64%

Erste Bank: The Supervisory Board of Erste Bank der oesterreichischen Sparkassen AG (“Erste Bank”) has appointed Gerda Holzinger-Burgstaller, in addition to her role as Erste Bank’s CEO and COO, to serve as the bank’s Chief Retail Officer as of 1 January 2022. In this role, she is replacing Thomas Schaufler, who left the banking group in October. The reorganization and the combination of Gerda Holzinger-Burgstaller's responsibility for both the Retail and the COO areas should make it even easier for Erste Bank to respond to the rapidly changing banking business and to drive forward digitalization and sustainability strategies. Stefan Dörfler will serve as Chief Financial Officer of Erste Bank in parallel to his CFO role at Erste Group, and Willi Cernko’s term as Deputy CEO and Chief Corporate Officer at Erste Bank has been be extended until 31 December 2024.
