Euromoney commented the award to Unicredit as follows: “Over the last year, UniCredit's potential for organic growth in Central and Eastern Europe has become clearer. The bank registered a strong growth in the number of customers – especially in countries like the Romania , Serbia, where its market share can further grow – as well as greater effectiveness in cross-selling products such as insurance and asset management. UniCredit's successes owe much to the development of digital banking – with increased digitization of mortgages, consumer loans and current accounts in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, for example – and to its efforts to reduce the number of retail products, favoring greater efficiency and concentration”.
