Britain's Lloyds bank reports annual profit rise of 12%
- Lloyds Banking Group, led by Charlie Nunn, announced pre-tax profits rose 12% to 6.66 billion for 2025, despite significant provisions.
- A strong final three months saw quarterly profits more than double to 1.98 billion, with AI contributing a 50 million boost, according to Nunn.
- The results included large remediation provisions with �968 million booked, including an �800 million third quarter charge, while underlying bad‑debt charges nearly doubled to �795 million last year.
- Upgraded guidance means Lloyds now expects underlying net interest income of around �14.9 billion for 2026, supporting higher returns for shareholders, with plans for up to �1.95 billion in buybacks and a 15% dividend increase.
- Lloyds argued for reforms, citing FCA review uncertainty, as it slightly upgraded its UK 2026 economy outlook .
