Key Points

Positve
  • Intercorp Financial Services Inc (IFS) reported a significant improvement in net income, doubling from the previous quarter to PEN286 million.
  • The company's core banking franchise showed strong growth in commercial banking, with a notable increase in market share for loans and deposits.
  • IFS's cost of risk decreased by 70 basis points quarter-over-quarter, indicating better risk management and a downward trend in risk indicators.
  • Digital transformation efforts are paying off, with over 80% of retail banking customers now using digital channels and a high Net Promoter Score (NPS) of 61%.
  • Interseguro, the insurance arm, saw a 25% year-over-year growth in premiums, maintaining market leadership in annuities and showing strong performance in individual life insurance.
Negative
  • Despite improvements, IFS's net income is still below the levels of a year ago, indicating that the company has not fully recovered to its previous performance.
  • The wealth management business remains volatile, with investment portfolio performance not meeting expectations, leading to lower-than-expected returns.
  • Consumer loans showed a decrease of 2.1% year-to-date and 7% year-over-year, reflecting ongoing challenges in this segment.
  • The cost of funds, although improving, remains a concern, with a need for continued proactive management to maintain efficiency.
  • The company's exposure to higher-risk segments, particularly in consumer lending, has led to a higher cost of risk, which, although decreasing, is still a significant factor.
