OVB Holding AG managed to increase its sales income significantly in the first quarter of 2021. Subject to the further impact of the persistent COVID-19 pandemic that cannot be estimated yet, the Company is currently expecting a significant increase in brokerage income and operating result (EBIT) for the full year 2021. So far OVB had anticipated for the 2021 financial year that brokerage income would increase slightly compared to the 2020 financial year (EUR 270.6 million) and that the EBIT would show a stable performance at the level of the 2020 financial year (EUR 14.9 million).
