Quarter on Quarter [upme_private]
Key Highlights
- The 3rd quarter reveals a very challenging period for the company. Interest income, commission on fees all dropped in comparison with the prior quarters.
- The lower revenues may not be unconnected with the new CBN guidelines restricting bank deposits as well as reduction in commissions on deposits
- Cost to Income Ratio this quarter also rose 45%, the highest this financial year
- The Bank still remains strong and a sure bet for increased profitability in the coming years.
