PETALING JAYA: Malaysia’s largest banking group began its new financial year with a decline in interest income, amid cautious business sentiment and moderated credit demand.
However, thanks to a bigger decline in interest expense driven by lower deposits, Malayan Banking Bhd
(Maybank) managed to report a stronger net interest income on a year-on-year basis for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025 (1Q25).
