Net interest income fell 7% year-on-year to $613m.
The drop was said to be driven by “lower noninterest-bearing deposit balances and accelerated mortgage backed securities (MBS) premium amortisation from falling long rates”.
Total expenses dropped 1% to $2.15bn from $2.17bn.
The fall in expenses was attributed to the absence of prior year repositioning costs and process re-engineering savings, among others.
