Bank of Ireland said on Friday it has extended its long-term financial services partnership with the AA in the UK for an additional three years to at least 2028.

The joint venture, established in 2015, currently has around 90,000 customers and a balance sheet of about £700 million (€799 million).

The Irish lender also has a long-standing joint venture with the Post Office in the UK.

The extension of the AA partnership “will further enhance the alignment of both parties to drive mutual benefits, and is a key part of” Bank of Ireland’s UK strategy”, the bank said.
