The net profit attributable to common shareholders amounted to KZT 553.8bn in 12M 2022, up 19.8% compared with KZT 462.4bn in 12M 2021 mainly due to significant increase in lending business, including acquisition of Sber's loan portfolio, as well as increase in net gain on foreign exchange operations and net fee and commission income.
The interest income for 12M 2022 increased by 41.8% vs. 12M 2021 mainly due to increase in average rate and balances of loans to customers. The interest expense for 12M 2022 increased by 57.4% vs. 12M 2021 mainly as a result of the growth in average rate and balances of amounts due to customers. Consequently, net interest income for 12M 2022 grew by 30.6% vs. 12M 2021.
