Monmouthshire Building Society has announced record profits as it looks to deliver on the Welsh Government’s commitment of creating a new community bank.
The Newport-headquartered mutual posted profits after tax of £7.8m for its financial year to the end of April, 2022, compared to £1.57m in the previous year – underlying profits before tax were £5.16m compared to £1.3m previously.
A significant driver of profitability related to fair value hedging.
