The Board of Directors of Bank Alfalah Limited, in its meeting held on October 17, 2024, approved the Bank’s financial results for the nine-months period ended September 30, 2024.

Bank Alfalah reported profit after tax of PKR 33.643 billion, an improvement of 23.5% over the same period last year (SPLY), translating into earning per share of PKR 21.33. The Bank’s profit before tax was PKR 66.482 billion. The improvement in profitability was largely attributable to a growth of 76.4% in Non Funded income supported by net interest income and lower provisions.

The Bank’s deposits closed at Rs. 2.136 trillion as at September 30, 2024; representing a 17.3% year-on-year (YoY) increase. CA and CASA ratios stood at 40.1% and 72.4% respectively. The Bank reported its gross advances at Rs. 903.913 billion with an improved infection ratio of 4.6% compared to 5.4% at the end of September 2023.
