Family Bank Posts Ksh.1.05 Billion Profit in Q1 2025 on Cost Controls

During the period under review, customer deposits rose by 19.8% to Ksh.132.3 billion, buoyed by operational improvements and ongoing investments in the bank’s digital infrastructure.

Family Bank Group recorded a net profit of Ksh.1.05 billion in the first quarter of 2025, marking a modest increase from Ksh.910 million reported during the same period in 2024.

The improved performance for the January–March period is attributed to effective cost-cutting measures and a significant rise in interest income.

Interest income surged by 32.6% to Ksh.3.2 billion, driven by strong returns from government securities and an increase in loan disbursements.

The bank also reported a 32.1% growth in non-funded income, supported by higher customer transaction volumes, enhanced digital services, and greater uptake of its product offerings.

“Our new 2025–2029 strategy prioritizes innovation, digital transformation, customer-centricity, data-driven decision-making, and sustainable growth,” said Family Bank CEO Nancy Njau.
