NCBA Group has raised its interim dividend by 50 percent after posting a 12.2 percent growth in half-year net profit, underlining the lender's strong earnings momentum even as it increased provisions for bad loans.

The lender on Wednesday announced an interim dividend of Sh3.75 per share, up from Sh2.50 paid at the same time last year, after reporting a net profit of Sh12.4 billion for the six months ended June 2026, compared with Sh11 billion a year earlier.
