August 21, 2019 (MLN): Bank Al Habib Limited (BAHL)’s semiannual bottom line profit has hopped up by 5.44% on account of a larger growth in inflows than outflows.

The Bank announced its net income for the period ended June 30, 2019 at Rs.4.44 billion (EPS: Rs.4 per share)

As per market’s expectation, the net interest income (Rs.19.5 billion) grew by 30.9% on the back of rising interest rates, as asset yields generally get repriced with a delay of a few months whereas liabilities are generally quicker to adjust to change in interest rates.

In addition to this, the increase in BAHL’s fee income fueled up the growth in fee, commission and brokerage income.

However, since the tax expenses (Rs.4 billion) grew substantially by over 40%, the overall net profit grew by a much smaller margin than it could have.
