The net income rose as a result of an increase in total operating income by 27.7%, mainly due to the increase in net financing and income from investment, banking services fees, foreign currency conversion and from other operations, the bank said,

At the same time, total operating expenses increased by 7.3% due to an increase in depreciation expense and employee salaries and benefits expenses, offset by a decrease in other general and administrative expenses.

In a related context, Al Rajhi Bank launched the new identity of the bank, which is considered a departure from being a leading bank in the region to a strategy of enabling financial solutions in a way that meets the prosperous future of the human being under the name of “post-banking.”

The bank also announced that by launching the new identity, the services it provides will go beyond being a bank that provides banking products to a financial system led by its competent employees who design smart financial solutions.
