Bahrain National Bank Posts 16% Profit Growth
Bank of Bahrain and Kuwait achieved a net profit attributable to shareholders of 22.5 million Bahraini dinars (approximately 59.7 million US dollars) during the second quarter of 2026, representing a 16% increase compared to the same period of the previous year, driven by higher net interest income. Additionally, total comprehensive income attributable to shareholders rose by 168%, reaching 37.3 million Bahraini dinars. Total assets stood at 6,372.1 million Bahraini dinars, up 2% from the end of 2025, with loans and advances growing by 6% and customer deposits increasing by 12%. For the entire first half of the year, net profit totaled 43.1 million Bahraini dinars, affected by a decline in the market value of the bond portfolio due to geopolitical conditions. The bank has decided to continue distributing semi-annual cash dividends at a rate of 10% of the nominal value per share, without compromising its financial sustainability or its support for the national economy.
