At present, the bankʼs share of the market is over 18%, Csányi noted. OTPʼs stock of farm loans has more than doubled in the last five years, he added. 

OTP wants to make access to credit easier for farmers who win European Union funding, and wants to pay more attention to smallholders, Csányi said.
