The Group’s loan book (net) increased by 15.6 per cent from N2.79 trillion recorded as at December 2024 to N3.22 trillion in March 2025, while deposit liabilities grew by 7.7 per cent from N10.40 trillion to N11.20 trillion during the same period.

The Group recorded growth across all its asset lines and continues to maintain a robust, well-structured, highly de-risked, and well-diversified balance sheet in all the jurisdictions wherein it operates.
