UOB Shares Fall 7% as Bank Lowers Interest Margin Guidance

Key Facts

1Singapore's UOB reported profits that missed analyst estimates due to a decline in trading income.

United Overseas Bank shares fell 7.0% after the bank lowered its full-year net interest margin guidance to below 1.75%. The lender reported a 15% drop in Q3 net profit to S$1.25 billion, missing analyst estimates.

The decline in trading income pressured the group's overall profitability during the period, offsetting other revenue streams. Bloomberg reported that the financial results were impacted by a slowdown in trading activities and lower yields, leading the Singaporean institution to revise its margin targets for the remainder of the year.
