Home Credit is catering to clients for whom personal contact is still important when negotiating new products. In March, it opened two new branches - in the Korso Karviná shopping center and in Fontána in Teplice. Although more and more clients are concluding consumer loans online, in 2024 this was already more than 40% of negotiated contracts, brick-and-mortar branches still play a key role for many not only for negotiating products, but also as the first step and gateway to the digital world of finance.
Similar to Prague, Brno also recorded only a slight year-on-year increase in the supply of modern office space in 2024, with the total market size increasing by only 8,600 square meters. The same was true in Ostrava, where the construction of modern office buildings has been subdued in recent years, with exceptions, and the average annual completed area over the past 5 years is 5,800 square meters. Despite the lower supply, both cities represent an attractive alternative for investors - rental prices are stable and lag behind the Prague market. In Brno, at the end of 2024, the rent for premium office space in a modern design was EUR 17 per square meter per month, while in Ostrava it ranged between EUR 14 and 14.50. Other regional cities, especially Plzeň, Hradec Králové and Olomouc, could attract investors' attention in the coming years thanks to new projects and improving transport infrastructure. This is according to the latest analysis of the regional office space market by Colliers.

Well-being: how can the work environment contribute to improved mental health?
For many people, after a long "covid" break, the work environment is where they spend most of their time again. For this reason, it is important that the work environment is pleasant and supportive of their mental health. The trend of recent years is set clearly, give people what they want. Give them a pleasant working environment and they will be more willing to stay longer, finish the job and spend time away from home. And it makes sense. A happy colleague/employee equals better work ethic, results, engagement, willingness to stay longer, but it also translates into mood and relationships within the team.
