Our Commentary: Updated 15th February 2013

ANZ released a trading update for its December quarter, reporting a 20% drop in profit to $1.36 billion.

The decline was attributed to a weak Australian market and thinning margins in New Zealand and its International and Institutional Banking Division. The firm’s unaudited quarterly cash profit climbed – more closely watched by the 6.2% from $1.49 billion in 1Q12 to $1.53 billion.

Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Mike Smith, said that “we are delivering against our strategic growth and productivity priorities. This has seen ANZ continue to perform despite soft economic conditions in Australia and New Zealand, and cautious behaviour by consumers and business.”
