The PR Banking sector reached a Pre-Tax ROE of 20.9% in Q1 2021, the highest profitability level since 2004. There is excess liquidity in the banking system, part of which is likely to be deployed to lending activity as the local economy takes off.
The PR Banking sector reached double digit Pre-Tax Return on Equity in 2020 (10.2%) despite the low interest rate environment, the impact of COVID-19 on business and consumer activity, and higher credit provisions.
Banks remained profitable during the first nine months of 2020 despite the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. However, they experienced a moderate reduction in profitability (8.8% Pre-Tax ROE) vs 2018 and 2019 due to lower interest margin and fee income, and higher loan loss provision.
La rentabilidad de la banca dominicana comienza a mostrar una disminución, producto del impacto de la crisis sanitaria en la economía. Los principales indicadores que inciden en esto son: aumento de provisión para cartera de crédito, disminución de comisiones por servicios y disminución del ingreso financiero.
La banca múltiple dominicana ha seguido mostrando un nivel elevado de rentabilidad en la primera mitad del 2020. Los efectos de la pandemia no se han manifestado aun en los indicadores de calidad de activos, solvencia y rentabilidad gracias a las medidas tomadas por las entidades reguladoras.
Reduction in profitability in the first half of 2020 (7.0% Pre-Tax ROE) vs 2018 and 2019 due to lower interest margin and fee income, and higher loan loss provision, mostly driven by the Covid pandemic and its impact on the local and US economies. Despite the magnitude of the pandemic impact, no bank had negative net income, with Popular reaching the highest pre-tax ROA (0.97%), followed by Oriental (0.68%), Santander (0.58%), and FirstBank (0.40%).
The impact of Covid-19 has been partially absorbed by local banks in their Q1 2020 results through a significant increase in loan loss provision. However, the reduction in fees and transactional income was small (last two weeks of March 2020) and will be felt mostly in Q2 2020 and in subsequent quarters depending on the pace of return to normal economic activity. In this Q1 2020 Banking Industry Report we present a brand new format where the user will be able to select particular periods of time and banks to review key metrics trends and make bank comparisons.
