CFG Bank Posts 41% Net Profit Surge in 2025, Raises 2026 Outlook
CFG Bank closed 2025 with a credit portfolio of DH19.0 bn, up 21% year‑on‑year, and deposits of DH20.3 bn, up 11%. Net profit attributable to shareholders jumped 41% to DH370 mn, while pre‑tax profit rose 65% to DH561 mn. The bank’s consolidated operating income reached DH1.247 bn, a 32% increase, driven by higher interest margins and booming fee income from asset‑management and investment‑banking activities. Management confirmed a dividend of DH4 per share – a 21% lift – subject to regulator approval, and raised its 2026 guidance after beating expectations in 2025. A second capital‑markets day highlighted a target to double the bank’s size by 2028/2029 without new equity, aiming for DH2 bn operating income and a ROE above 16%.
