Meezan Bank profit falls to Rs 89bn in 2025 despite strong deposit growth

Karachi: Meezan Bank reported a profit after tax of Rs 89 billion for 2025, compared to Rs 101.5 billion in 2024, reflecting pressure from the declining interest rate environment. Despite the drop in earnings, the bank posted strong deposit growth, with total deposits rising 28 per cent to exceed Rs 3.30 trillion. The increase indicates sustained customer confidence and an expanding market share in Pakistan’s banking sector. Officials noted that overall income declined in line with industry-wide trends driven by lower interest rates. However, the bank maintained a robust return on equity of 34 per cent, underscoring solid operational performance even amid a challenging economic landscape.
