BDO Unibank Inc. reported a 3% increase in its first-semester income, reaching P40.6 billion, driven primarily by its core lending business.
The bank's net interest income grew by 7%, supported by a significant 14% expansion in gross customer loans to P3.4 trillion.
Asset quality improved as the nonperforming loans ratio decreased to 1.75% from 2.06%.
Noninterest income also saw a positive trend, rising by 15% due to increased gains from fee-based services and insurance.
Despite the positive results, BDO's overall growth was somewhat moderated by investments in market coverage and higher IT spending.
BDO president and CEO Nestor Tan had previously expressed caution about potential slower growth for the year, citing global uncertainties that could affect loan demand.
