The culprit in my view is decrease in Other Income (450m) and increase in OPEX (450m).
Concurs. They must have bagged a one off gain in Q1 2013 which was in the other income then. On OPEX, staff cost (+21.3% y/y, +11.3% q/q) and loan loss provision (+89.3% y/y, +305.0% q/q) did it. Its however also notable that NPL have spiked but NPL ratio remains low compared to industry.
