Bankinter continues to stand out with one of the highest returns among the financial institutions, with a ROE, or profitability measure on equity of 13%,which is reinforced by 66 basis points in the period, and managed to time reduce in 52 points in the npl ratio, with the rate limited to 3,20% (2,92% if it refers only to business in Spain).
In the period reduced the portfolio of assets real estate foreclosed from the 470,8 million euros gross to 336,1 billion and maintains provisions that cover the 45.2% of the risk.

The managed resources of retail customers will increase by 10.7%, up 50.289,7 million, when the sector has grown by just 2.9%.
The portfolio of those managed off balance sheet (in products such as investment funds, pensions and wealth management) at the same time 10.6% to reach 28.546,3 million.
