Board Decision

On 13 January, the bank’s board of directors held a meeting and decided to withhold dividends from the profits of the past year. No specific reasons were provided for this decision. The bank has since submitted its financial reports to Nepal Rastra Bank for final approval.

Impact on Shareholders

Shareholders had hoped for dividends from the bank’s profits, but this year they will receive nothing. The decision has raised questions about the bank’s financial strategy and plans.

Similar Move by Nepal Bank Limited

In a related move, Nepal Bank Limited also announced that it would not distribute any dividends to shareholders for the fiscal year. Both banks have sent their financial statements to Nepal Rastra Bank for review.

Future Prospects

The decision to withhold dividends suggests that the banks may be focusing on strengthening their capital base or addressing other financial priorities. This move could impact shareholder confidence, but it may also indicate a strategic shift toward long-term growth.

With both NIC Asia Bank and Nepal Bank Limited taking similar actions, the banking community will be watching closely to see how these decisions affect their operations in the months ahead.
