Fee and commission income rose 13% to Rs902.27 million, but total income still contracted 21% to Rs14.33 billion.

Non-interest expenses increased 13% to Rs9.67 billion, contributing to a 52% reduction in profit before credit loss allowance, to Rs4.66 billion. Profit before tax fell 51% to Rs5.16 billion, while taxation expense also decreased 51% to Rs2.76 billion. The figures show declines across BOK’s main income streams and bottom line for the period.
