| Raiffeisen in Tyrol
With 81 independent local Raiffeisen banks, the top-level institu-
tion Raiffeisen-Landesbank Tirol AG and a total of 262 bank
branches, the Tyrol Raiffeisen banks represent by far the largest
and most powerful banking group in the federal state of Tyrol.
Raiffeisen stands for competence, quality of advice and values
such as security, proximity and trust. A customer share of almost
50 per cent indicates how much customers appreciate this. With
some 2,750 employees, Raiffeisen is also one of the largest
private employers and a significant economic factor in the federal
state.
The Raiffeisen Banking Group Tyrol can also boast excellent
collaboration. Synergies are used systematically and strengths
are combined, to the benefit of customers above all. This enables
all Tyrol Raiffeisen banks to offer a comprehensive range of top-
quality services, in addition to professional advice. In this respect,
Tyrol Raiffeisen banks can access the specialised products of
subsidiaries and other companies in which a stake is held. In
addition to Raiffeisen-Landesbank Tirol AG, these include the
securities fund company Raiffeisen Capital Management, the
insurance company Raiffeisen Versicherung, Raiffeisen–Leasing
and the building society Raiffeisen Bausparkasse.
Raiffeisen also stands for co-determination and regionalism. The
Tyrol Raiffeisen banks are owned by 118,430 members in the
regions, who act as co-owners and hold a voting right at general
meetings.
The success of the Raiffeisen Banking Group Tyrol can be
expressed in the following figures: consolidated total assets
were EUR 9.8 billion (excluding RLB Tirol AG) as at the reference
date (31 December 2010). On that date, Tyrol Raiffeisen banks
managed initial deposits, consisting of demand, time and sav-
ings deposits, of EUR 6.9 billion. Tyrol Raiffeisen banks are also
leaders in the financing of private and corporate customers. As at
the reference date (31 December 2010), total lending amounted to
EUR 6.1 billion.
Tyrol's Raiffeisen Club provides support to young people in their
financial development. The largest leisure association in Western
Austria offers 91,000 Raiffeisen Club members attractive conces-
sions at the bank, at concerts, sporting and cultural events and at
around 400 cooperation partners.
In 2010 alone, the Tyrol Raiffeisen banks have provided local
people with about five million Euro to promote sport, culture,
education and for social facilities, as in previous years.

Raiffeisen Home Centre –
a centre of competence
Building, renovating and home-making are topics that Tyrol peo-
ple spend a lot of time on. In many cases the investment in one's
"own four walls" is a life-long task. Raiffeisen guarantees a high
standard of comprehensive advice in each individual and detailed
discussion of housing options.
The Tyrol Raiffeisen banks have constructed a unique centre of
competence at the Raiffeisen Home Centre in the Energiehaus
park in Innsbruck. The showhouse park offers everyone the
opportunity to view current trends in relation to energy-efficient
building and renovating.
At the Raiffeisen Home Centre, visitors can obtain advice on
financing, with subsequent referral to their local Raiffeisen bank.
They can also get in-depth information on subsidies or similar
possibilities through the public purse. Experts and technical
specialists also provide free information on everything related to
housing (tax and legal matters, property, building and renovat-
ing, energy, feng shui, geothermal energy, ventilation). Advisory
meetings with specialists are also offered without charge at the
Raiffeisen Home Centre.
