In the first quarter of 2025, BOC Hong Kong reported a notable increase in its financial performance, with net operating income before impairment allowances rising by 12.9% year-on-year. The company capitalized on improved investor sentiment and increased demand for investment and wealth management services, resulting in a significant boost in net fee and commission income.
Key financial metrics for the quarter include a 3.4% year-on-year increase in net interest income, despite a narrowing net interest margin due to falling market interest rates. The company also reported a 34.7% rise in net fee and commission income, driven by its investment and insurance businesses.
