Craig Donaldson, Chief Executive Officer at Metro Bank said:
"This is another great quarter for Metro Bank, and the results are a testament to the strength of the model and our focus on the integration of stores and technology to create FANS. We have now delivered three consecutive quarters of profitability and for the first time have exceeded GBP1 billion net growth in deposits in a single quarter whilst also reducing the cost of those deposits. We have seen double digit growth in lending (11%) and attracted an additional 72,000 accounts, taking us to 987,000 customer accounts across the bank.
"We continue to grow the business, and remain on track to open a further ten stores before the year end. Our business continues to deliver across all areas - Retail, Business, Commercial and Private - and our model, culture and focus on creating FANS remains a compelling alternative for consumers and businesses alike."
Vernon Hill, Chairman and Founder at Metro Bank, added:
"What a superb start to the year for Metro Bank. This quarter saw improved performance on every level, across every measure and best of all, we saw many more FANS opening accounts. Our combination of great online and mobile banking and an exceptional in store experience is making a positive difference to our customers. Metro Bank remains a revolution in British banking, championing the right of every customer to receive service and convenience tailored to their needs."
