OCBC profit up 39% for Q1 to record S$1.9 billion
OCBC : O39 0%’s net profit for its first quarter rose 39 per cent to S$1.9 billion, buoyed by strong net interest income growth.
This was compared with S$1.4 billion for the year-ago period; the earnings also beat the S$1.6 billion consensus forecast in a Bloomberg survey of five analysts.
At the bank’s earnings briefing on Wednesday (May 10), OCBC group chief executive Helen Wong noted that the record results came despite global volatility.
