Due to Bank’s improvement on interest income and other operational income, the average profit has also been increased said Sanima Bank CEO Bhuvan Kumar Dahal. ‘The profit has increase even when Return-on-investment of banks has decreased’ he said ‘many banks are getting on merger and acquisition procedure has also played important role on increase in profit.’ Although foreign remittance hasn’t been much of improvement but interest and other operational income has increased said Dahal. ‘Although banks’ net profits have increased compared to the corresponding period of the last fiscal year, the situation is not ideal,” said Dahal. “The profits have not justified the increased paid-up capital of banks and the return on equity of a majority of the banks has gone down.’

‘Due earthquakes and unofficial blockade imposed by India, the economic activities were pretty low in the first quarter of the last fiscal year. Hence, the lending too was low,’ said Dahal. ‘But things have changed and banks lent aggressively during the first quarter of this fiscal year which resulted in the profit surge.’
