Deposits on current accounts increased by 32% and those on securities accounts by 26%. Overall, balance sheet deposits
increased by 20% and now exceed €5 billion.
The sharp increase in outstanding life insurance to €3.7 billion (+19%) demonstrates the attractiveness of Boursorama’s
offering. The proportion of unit-linked contract increased to 30.1%.
The outstanding amount of mutual funds grew by 7% to €932 million.
All in all, the assets managed by Boursorama in France amount to €13.2 billion (+13%).
Record loan production
This quarter, Boursorama doubled its loan production, which is close to €400 million. Outstanding mortgage loans
grew 22%.
This success has resulted in a continuous increase in loan applications (500 on average per day). The number of borrowers
taking out a mortgage loan with Boursorama was multiplied by 2.2 from the second quarter of 2014 to the second quarter
of 2015. They appreciate in particular the 100% online sign-up process, the electronic signature for borrower insurance,
the real-time monitoring, the immediate pre-approval response, the fact that they receive alternative proposals to that
initially requested and the very competitive interest rates offered.
