shareholders, clients and colleagues, In the past year, First Investment Bank AD (Fibank) achieved important successes and strengthened its position as a responsible and systemically important bank on the Bulgarian market, with a strong team of professionals and a well-functioning corporate structure. 2014 was another year of challenges from the external environment. The slow recovery of the economy and political instability on the one hand, and on the other the crisis situation which occurred with the placement under special supervision, and later the revocation of the license of a credit institution, put all banks in the country to the test. The crisis created had its impact on our bank which was subject to liquidity pressure at the end of June 2014. Thanks to the well developed corporate structure and the high levels of liquidity maintained by the Bank, it successfully passed this real-time stress test. The European Commission approved a State aid scheme in the amount of BGN 3.3 billion to support banks in Bulgaria. First Investment Bank used BGN 1.2 billion of it, repaying BGN 300 million in November 2014.
