Outlook: Delivering loan growth across group

ABG is delivering growth across the group. Its business model of fostering a range of financial services has worked most successfully with the retail bank (Secure Trust) but the private bank is also delivering substantial underlying profit and franchise growth (loans up 57% but still has a divisional loan to deposits ratio of 92%). Group pre-tax profits of £22.5m were ahead of our forecast of £21.8m. We have accelerated loan growth and costs following these results.
