Bank of Ireland Reports Strong Start to 2025 Amid Positive Economic Conditions

 

Bank of Ireland Group plc (LSE:BIRG) has posted a robust performance for the start of 2025, with profitability and overall results in line with expectations. The bank’s core loan portfolio, especially in the Irish mortgage sector, showed growth, and deposits remained solid. Despite an 8% year-over-year drop in net interest income due to rate cuts by the European Central Bank (ECB), the bank saw a healthy 8% rise in total business income. The Group continues to maintain a strong capital position, with a Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio of 15.9%, supported by organic capital generation and Basel IV benefits. The outlook for the Irish economy remains favorable, with positive growth forecasts for GDP and employment, although potential risks from trade disruptions have been noted. The bank is focused on maintaining asset quality, generating capital, and meeting its 2025 guidance.
