United Overseas Bank Limited (UOB) is a leading financial institution headquartered in Singapore, offering a wide range of banking services across Asia, including personal and corporate banking, investment banking, and treasury services. UOB operates in multiple countries, providing comprehensive financial solutions to its customers.
In its latest earnings report for the first half of 2025, UOB announced a stable financial performance with a slight decline in net profit compared to the previous year. The bank declared an interim dividend of 85 cents per ordinary share, reflecting its commitment to returning value to shareholders.
Key financial metrics showed that UOB’s net interest income remained stable at $4.7 billion, while net fee income increased by 11% year-on-year, driven by higher wealth management and loan-related fees. Operating profit rose by 3% to $4.0 billion, supported by disciplined cost management, although net profit declined by 3% to $2.8 billion due to increased allowances for credit losses amid macroeconomic uncertainties.
Despite challenges, UOB’s asset quality remained robust with a stable non-performing loan ratio of 1.6%. The bank’s capital adequacy ratios were well above regulatory requirements, indicating strong capital and liquidity positions.
Looking ahead, UOB’s management remains cautiously optimistic, focusing on maintaining financial stability and capitalizing on growth opportunities across its regional markets, while navigating potential economic headwinds.
