subdued, supported by broad-based fee income growth (wealth/fund management,
Business/IB). Overall, operating income rose 5.8% yoy. Provisions and impairments were
significantly lower by 56% yoy, due to reversals of provisions. FY25 NIM edged up 15bps yoy to 1.94%, driven primarily by optimization of deposit cost, resulting in cheaper term fundings, liability management as well as favorable pricing of business loans. FY25
overheads rose 7% yoy driven by personnel-related costs and investments in technology.
