FY 2023 Performance Highlights

"I’m delighted to announce our full year results which demonstrate our consistent focus on growth and efficiency, delivering an underlying profit of £302 million, an underlying return on tangible equity of 20.2%, loan book growth of 27%, a stable cost of risk at 51 basis points and a cost to income ratio of 38.2%.

The challenging economic conditions during the year created uncertainty for our customers, however, our underlying results reflect the strength of our ’best of both’ human and technology proposition that supports our customers’ needs during these difficult times."
