CAPTION: BSP Financial Group Chief Executive Officer Mark Robinson

BSP Financial Group has delivered a strong financial performance for the year ending 31 December 2025, posting a net profit after tax of K1.17 billion up 12.9 percent from last year.

Revenue increased by 14.4 percent to K3.41 billion, supported by higher lending income and strong foreign exchange earnings.

At the same time, digital banking continued to expand, with overall digital adoption rising by more than 22 percent. Internet banking transactions surged 54 percent, while EFTPOS usage increased by 16 percent across BSP’s markets.

A key highlight was the Wantok Wallet, launched in February 2025, which has now attracted more than 100,000 users, improving access to banking services, especially in remote communities.

Group Chief Executive Officer Mark Robinson says the result reflects broad-based growth across all major markets.

He says earnings, deposits and customer activity increased in 2025, demonstrating the strength of BSP’s franchise and disciplined execution, while investments in digital capability and infrastructure are already improving customer experience.

Shareholders will also benefit, with BSP increasing its full-year dividend by 13 percent to K1.88 per share. The final dividend will be paid on March 27.

BSP Chairman Robert Bradshaw said This is a strong result with impressive financial performance in a fast changing and highly competitive environment, reflecting our 20-year track record of delivering growth in profitability and attractive shareholder returns.

The bank maintains a strong capital position of 26.4 percent, supporting continued investment and long-term growth.
