Profit before tax of Retail Banking | 940.9 | 1,183.3 | 242.4 | 25.8% |
The profit before tax of Retail Banking in 2018 was driven by the following factors:
-
Increase in total income by PLN 489.1 million or 18.3% year on year, to PLN 3,165.0 million. Net interest income expanded significantly by PLN 297.4 million (supported by rising volumes and a shift in the credit portfolio structure toward high-margin products). The high income in 2018 was also backed by a profit from selling an organised part of enterprise of mFinanse (PLN 219.7 million). The transaction brought about lower net commission income, since commissions for agency services regarding the sale of insurance products of external financial entities fell substantially;
-
Increase in operating expenses (including depreciation) by PLN 123.2 million, i.e. 10.3% year on year, driven mainly by the growth in staff-related expenses;
-
Higher net impairment losses and fair value change on loans and advances, i.e. PLN 113.5 million or 33.1% up compared to the previous year, which was attributable to the introduction of a new accounting standard (IFRS 9), change in the retail credit portfolio structure and a growing volume of non-mortgage loans (unsecured loans);
-
Tax on the Group’s balance sheet items at PLN 205.9 million.

- Increase in operating expenses (including depreciation) to PLN 109.3 million;
- Tax on the Group’s balance sheet items at PLN 36.5 million.
