This happened because banks began generating more revenue. They earned more from their services—such as loans, fees, and other transactions. Their revenue grew from 174.2 billion KGS to 220.2 billion KGS (+26.4%). Expenses also increased, from 94.9 billion KGS to 123.8 billion KGS (+30.5%). And although expenses are growing faster than revenue, banks still earned more money than they spent.
The National Bank played a major role in the banking sector’s profitability. It posted a record profit of 60.7 billion KGS, compared to 45.7 billion a year earlier (+32.8% year-over-year).
As a result, the regulator’s profit alone accounted for over 60% of the banking sector, which in turn generated nearly all of the financial sector’s earnings—96 billion out of 105 billion KGS.
