Hoist Finance confirms discussion regarding a strategic partnership with Bank of Greece


Hoist Finance together with a consortium consisting of Qualco S.A. and
PricewaterhouseCoopers Business Solutions S.A. are participating in discussions
with the Bank of Greece regarding management of a NPL portfolio of 16 Greek
banks under liquidation. The transaction would, if concluded, consist of end to
end portfolio management solutions and full scale operational rationalization of
the resolved banks aiming at optimizing proceeds. The transaction would not
entail any material financial effects for Hoist Finance in the near future but
could open significant opportunities through Hoist Finance additional Greek
market presence.

Hoist Finance does not intend to make any further press release or announcement
regarding these matters unless and until it enters into a binding and definitive
agreement.
