Cash net profit after tax increased by 7% to $11 billion, while pre-provision profit rose by 6% to $16.5 billion. Return on equity improved to 14.0%. Operating income grew by 6%, driven by customer and volume growth, and a stable underlying net interest margin. The bank achieved growth in all five core domestic product categories.
