the Oil & Gas sector will continue to face heightened uncertainty arising from the 

ongoing conflict in the Middle East.

strength of our diversified franchise. Despite healthy loan growth of 5% and active balance sheet 

management, net interest income eased 2% from the previous year due to margin pressures from 

the lower interest rate environment. Net fee income rose 5% year on year to S$665 million, led by 

record wealth management fees, although this was partially offset by softer loan-related fees from capital market activities. 

The Group’s non-performing loan ratio stood at 1.6%. Credit costs for 2Q26 remained within
