Performance Ratio – Cost to Income
The cost-to-income ratio is targeted at 35% for the next FY due to more pressures on the Bank’s total operating income and an increase in its total operating expenses. With a disciplined approach towards spending along with a higher total operating income, the Bank achieved a lower cost-to-income ratio of 33%. The cost to income ratio is expected to be around 55% due to a contraction in the total operating income of the bank.
