Stanbic Bank Plc, the bank that places its customers at the center of everything it does. Recently released it nine month ended September 2020 unaudited consolidated Financial Statement to the public.
The bank’s Q3 2020 results published by the Nigerian Stock Exchange which shows Gross Earning Year-on-Year (YonY) growth of 4 percent to N183.3 billion also revealed that the Profit After Tax (PAT) which grew by 19 percent YonY was on the strength of the bank’s robust 20 percent increase in Non-Interest Income. Trading Revenue growth of 63% was the major driver of the Non-Interest income line as Net Fee and Commission Income decline marginally by 1 percent YonY.
Net Interest Income also declined by 4 percent YonY despite a YonY growth of 6 percent in Earning Asset (Customer Loan and Advances). This is because of the general drop-in rates which affected earnings on Loans to both Customers and other Banks as well as interest realizable on Investments by the bank in Q3 2020.
The growth in Trading Revenue was also able to save the bank’s net position in spite of the over N6 billion growth in Credit Impairment charges made by the bank in the 9 months period ended September 2020 compared to the corresponding period of 2019.
