NRBC Bank PLC reported a significant expansion in its deposit base for the 2025 fiscal year, with total deposits rising 17% year-on-year to Tk 19,842 crore.

The increase represents an addition of Tk 2,869 crore to the bank's liabilities, underscoring sustained customer confidence and effective liquidity management during the period.

Recent data indicated that outstanding loans in non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) increased by just 2% year-on-year in the first quarter of 2026, driven primarily by private sector credit.

The deposit growth was highlighted by Md Ali Hossain Prodhania, chairman of NRBC Bank, during the bank's 13th annual general meeting, which was held virtually.

The strong inflow of funds provides the lender with a stable funding base, a critical metric for assessing a bank's ability to support lending activities and meet regulatory capital requirements without relying excessively on expensive wholesale funding.

This performance comes against a backdrop of modest credit growth in the broader financial sector.
