We are making a sustainable
impact for Tyrol
Raiffeisen strengthens regional value creation
Raiffeisen-Landesbank, in conjunction with the 73 Tyrolean Raif-
feisen banks, performs an important function in the Tyrolean eco-
nomic cycle and thereby benefits Tyrolean society. Raiffeisen
makes an essential contribution to added value, not only in Tyrol
but also in Austria as a whole. Every euro generated in the Austri-
an Raiffeisen Banking Group triggers the generation of one further
euro in gross added value at other enterprises: this is money that
remains within the region. Due to the degree of interweaving with
cooperation partners and supplier companies, moreover, almost
an entire further job in Austria depends on each employee of the
Raiffeisen Banking Group.
Cycling for climate protection
Under the slogan ‘All of Tyrol is cycling’, the successful climate
protection initiative launched by the state of Tyrol and the climate
pressure group Klimabündnis Tirol entered its fifth round. Employ-
Those taking part in the 2015
cycling competition included
47 employees
of Raiffeisen-Landesbank Tirol
AG. Between them, they cycled
40,258.33 km
.
The Raiffeisen Banking Group
pays an annual sum of around
two billion
euros
in taxes and other
charges that benefit the feder-
al government, the states and the municipalities. In
so doing, Raiffeisen-Landesbank Tirol AG, in con-
junction with the Tyrolean Raiffeisen banks and the
Raiffeisen Banking Group Austria, is demonstrably
strengthening the economy in our region.
Raiffeisen-Landesbank Tirol AG was
able to support its corporate cli-
ents with export financing totalling
44.6 million
euros
in 2015. This was
almost 15 per cent more than in the
previous year.
The growth in credit at Raiffei-
sen-Landesbank Tirol AG was around
+3.5 per cent
, signifi-
cantly higher than the Tyrolean banks’
average of +0.4 per cent.

ees of Raiffeisen-Landesbank Tirol AG, too, took part in the com-
petition for the first time. Their common goal: to cycle 40,074 km,
in other words, once around the world.
Raiffeisen-Landesbank Tirol AG achieved an outstanding third
place in the 2015 Tyrolean cycling competition in the large busi-
nesses category. To this end, 47 employees were hard at work
pedalling within the scope of RLB Vital. They burned off a total of
1,213,788.29 calories and saved 5,317.27 kilograms of CO
2
(the
equivalent of preserving woodland measuring 265.86 m²).
