POP Mortgage Bank – Establishment of Mortgage Bank and Covered Bond Programme

We advised POP Mortgage Bank Plc in the establishment of a mortgage bank and in the obtainment of the required authorisation under the Act on Mortgage Credit Banks. Additionally, we advised POP Mortgage Bank Plc in the establishment of a EUR 1,000,000,000 mortgage covered bond programme. Under the programme, POP Mortgage Bank Plc may issue covered bonds pursuant to the recently adopted the Act on Mortgage Credit Banks and Covered Bonds and list them on the regulated market. The authorisation process and the establishment of the programme were affected by the overall legislative reform, which entered into force on 8 July 2022.

POP Mortgage Bank Plc is part of the POP Group and the amalgamation of POP Banks. POP Mortgage Bank Plc is responsible for POP Group’s mortgage-secured funding by issuing covered bonds.
