UPDATE 1-Virgin Money makes modest credit loss provision as borrowers remain resilient

Tue, 28th Jul 2020 08:15

(Adds quote, details from statement)
July 28 (Reuters) - Virgin Money set aside a
further 42 million pounds to cover a possible rise in troubled
mortgages and personal loans on Tuesday but the UK's sixth
largest bank said it was yet to see any spike in credit losses
linked to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The modest rise pushed the lender's total balance sheet
credit provisions to 584 million pounds. It had reported a
first-half loss in May after setting aside 232 million pounds
($298.47 million) to cover bad loans and likely defaults as a
result of the global public health crisis.
Shares were trading 1.6% higher at 0714 GMT.
Virgin Money, one of several smaller lenders seeking to
challenge the dominance of the likes of NatWest Group ,
Barclays and HSBC , said its common equity tier
one capital ratio - a key measure of financial strength - rose
by around 30 basis points to 13.3% in the quarter to end-June.
However, its net interest margin (NIM) -the difference
between what banks earn from loans and pay for deposits -
slipped to 147 basis points from 163 basis points in the
preceding quarter.
That reflected the impact of this year's interest rate cuts
by the Bank of England, which slashed rates to near zero in
March in an effort to stabilise Britain's virus-hit economy.
The cuts are expected to squeeze profit margins at all
banks, and are likely to hurt smaller lenders like Virgin Money
and Metro Bank hardest.
In another sign of the sector's challenging business
outlook, Virgin Money also reported a 0.4% dip in customer
lending to 72.9 billion pounds as a slowdown in the UK housing
market during lockdown crushed demand for mortgages.
"The UK economy is emerging from lockdown and we have seen
increased consumer spending and economic activity in recent
weeks," the bank said.
"However the economic outlook remains highly uncertain and
it may be some months before the full extent of the impact of
the lockdown on the Group's customers is visible, once
Government and other support measures are withdrawn."
