Re­pub­lic Fi­nan­cial Hold­ings Lim­it­ed (RFHL) has an­nounced $1 bil­lion dol­lars in prof­its for the first half of the Fi­nan­cial Year.

RFHL chair­man Vin­cent Pereira an­nounced the group record­ed prof­its at­trib­ut­able to eq­ui­ty hold­ers of $1.01 bil­lion for the pe­ri­od end­ed March 31, 2025, an in­crease of 1.1 per cent when com­pared to the pri­or pe­ri­od.

He said growth for the pe­ri­od was bol­stered by the Group’s ro­bust loan growth and pru­dent cost man­age­ment. He said that RFHL's to­tal as­sets stood at $126.7 bil­lion at March 31, 2025, an in­crease of $9.2 bil­lion or 7.8 per cent over the to­tal as­sets at March 2024.

This in­crease, he said, was main­ly fu­elled by growth in the loan port­fo­lios across all sub­sidiaries, with healthy con­tri­bu­tions from both the group’s re­tail and cor­po­rate bank­ing seg­ments.

Pereira said, “As the glob­al com­mu­ni­ty con­tin­ued to grap­ple with evolv­ing macro­eco­nom­ic con­di­tions and geopo­lit­i­cal un­cer­tain­ty, the Re­pub­lic Fi­nan­cial Hold­ings Group con­tin­ued to demon­strate re­silience, op­er­a­tional strength, and com­mit­ment to de­liv­er­ing sus­tain­able val­ue to our stake­hold­ers.”

Pereira said, “In a pe­ri­od marked by glob­al un­cer­tain­ty and mar­ket volatil­i­ty, we con­tin­ue to pri­ori­tise fi­nan­cial sta­bil­i­ty and long-term val­ue cre­ation, while al­so re­in­forc­ing our role as a re­spon­si­ble fi­nan­cial in­sti­tu­tion. Our strate­gic trans­for­ma­tion jour­ney is pro­gress­ing well, and we re­main fo­cused on en­hanc­ing our dig­i­tal bank­ing ca­pa­bil­i­ties, deep­en­ing cus­tomer re­la­tion­ships, and in­no­vat­ing across all touch­points.”

He added, “Look­ing ahead, while un­cer­tain­ties will per­sist in the glob­al econ­o­my, the RFHL Group is well-po­si­tioned to nav­i­gate chal­lenges and cap­i­talise on op­por­tu­ni­ties. We re­main com­mit­ted to de­liv­er­ing sus­tain­able val­ue to our share­hold­ers, sup­port­ing our cus­tomers, and con­tribut­ing to the broad­er econ­o­my.”
