Well, management made it clear why they increased provision. Bank inherited a lot of potentially bad loans from parent and increase in provision is a cautious move to protect balance sheet.
Overall, I won’t say it was a very disappointing result due to very low expectations this time around and there were some green shoots (e.g. beat on NIM). If there was to be a correction in stock tomorrow, it should be limited (as opposed to last time).
