P
rivate lender Panin Bank reported on Friday a 22 percent increase in net profits during the first half of 2017, an achievement it attributed to a strong net interest income stream and other operational income streams, including fee-based income.
In a press release, the publicly listed bank said its net profits increased to Rp 1.4 trillion (US$105.1 million) in the January-June period in comparison to the Rp 1.15 trillion collected during the same period last year.
