QNB’s resource employment rate declined to 80.35% during H1-2024

QNB's separate financial statements for the financial period ended June 30 revealed that the Bank's resource employment rate fell to 80.35% by the end of the first half of this year, compared to 87.02% by the end of December 2023.

This indicator, launched by the Research Centre of First Bank, measures the employment rate of traditional resources (deposits + equity), in (loans + financial investments) of banks operating in the Egyptian banking sector.
