Lenders in UAE hopeful over profits - The National

First Gulf Bank and Union National Bank generated modest rises in profit during the first quarter because of growing margins on their loan books, even as new lending barely budged.

First Gulf Bank (FGB) reported a 7 per cent increase in net profit to Dh934.7 million (US$254.4m), spurred on by growth in its international business.

The earnings lagged behind analysts' estimates of Dh970m.
