This is mostly driven by sustained growth in the bank’s earning assets, particularly corporate loans. Also, despite the rising interest rate environment, the bank effectively managed funding cost, resulting to a higher NIM of 4.24%.

Other income rose to ₽1.22 billion, 21% up from ₽1.00 billion in 2022, owing to steady flow of the bank’s fee-based income.

Service charges, fees and commissions rose to ₽640.25 million largely driven by Investment Banking, Credit Card, Trust, and Trade Finance fees.
