'The bank has continued to deliver against its strategic priorities during the quarter,' chief executive Daniel Frumkin said.
'We have seen improvements in our lending mix from our expanded product offering.'
'We are seeing signs of a gradual return to normality and have adopted a hybrid way of working for office-based colleagues.'
'We remain focused on executing on our plans and returning the Bank to sustainable profitable growth.'
