Alpha Services and Holdings SA
Alpha Services and Holdings SA is the holding company for Alpha Bank, one of Greece’s large banking groups. The group makes money mainly from banking services such as loans, deposits, payment services, cards, and other everyday financial products for households, small businesses, and larger companies. Its role is to collect customer savings, lend that money out, and earn income from interest and fees. Its main customers are people who need a bank for personal finance, as well as companies that need funding, cash management, trade finance, and payment processing. The company sits in the middle of the financial system: it does not usually make products itself, but it helps move money, extend credit, and support business activity through its bank subsidiary. What makes this business model different is that it depends on trust, regulation, and balance-sheet management rather than physical products. The company earns from the spread between what it pays depositors and what it charges borrowers, plus fees for services. That gives it a stable, bank-like role in the economy, with results tied to credit demand, deposit funding, and the quality of its loan portfolio.

Capital & Dividends: CET1 ratio stood at 16.3% after Basel IV impact, with strong organic capital generation and a 50% dividend payout policy maintained.
Strategic M&A: Recent acquisitions, including AXIA Ventures and AstroBank, are expected to boost investment banking revenues threefold by 2027 and drive EPS accretion.

Cost Control: Costs remained flat year-on-year due to efficiency programs, but are expected to pick up over the remainder of the year as investment increases.
