What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation Limited reported a peak net profit of $6.24 billion for the first nine months of 2026, which is up 10% year on year. However, the third-quarter net profit was $2.04 billion, representing a 3% increase year on year but an 8% fall quarter on quarter. This quarterly decline occurred because weaker investment performance from Great Eastern Holdings Limited offset the bank’s strong banking operations.
