Losses of Lithuania’s credit unions narrow

In all, the 63 unions operated at a loss of LTL 2.57 million (EUR 0.74 million), however, it was lower by approximately one third compared to the first half of 2013 when losses reached LTL 6.85 million (EUR 1.98 million).

According to Miglė Blazauskienė, deputy head of the LCKU administration, the unions reported losses only in the first quarter, whereas in the second quarter the 63 unions made a total profit of LTL 1.8 million (EUR 0.52 million) and hence reduced the negative result.

On 30 June 2014, loan portfolio of the LCKU system’s unions stood at LTL 802.6 million (EUR 232.5 million), i.e. by 5.8 percent more year-on-year. In the second quarter most loans were issued to the agricultural sector.
