National Australia Bank ( (NABZY) ) has released its Q2 earnings. Here is a breakdown of the information National Australia Bank presented to its investors.
National Australia Bank (NAB) is a leading financial institution in Australia, primarily engaged in providing banking and financial services, including personal banking, business banking, and wealth management. The bank is regulated by the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) and is recognized as a domestic systemically important bank (D-SIB). In its latest earnings report, NAB has provided a comprehensive overview of its financial performance and regulatory compliance as of March 31, 2025. The report highlights NAB’s adherence to the revised APS 330 standards, which took effect on January 1, 2025, and outlines key prudential metrics and regulatory disclosures. NAB’s financial performance for the half-year ending March 2025 shows a stable capital position with a slight increase in Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital to $51.2 billion, reflecting a CET1 capital ratio of 12.01%. The bank’s total capital ratio stands at 21.02%, supported by an increase in Tier 2 capital due to new issuances. Risk-weighted assets (RWA) saw a marginal decrease of 0.6% from December 2024, primarily due to a reduction in counterparty credit risk. NAB’s liquidity position remains strong, with a Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) of 139% and a Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) of 119%. Looking ahead, NAB’s management remains focused on maintaining a robust capital and liquidity position while adapting to regulatory changes, including the phased-out use of Additional Tier 1 capital by 2027. The bank is also preparing for upcoming revisions to the capital framework and liquidity requirements as outlined by APRA and the Reserve Bank of New Zealand.
