Q: What factors could lead to outperforming or underperforming the net interest margin (NIM) expectations for the second half of the year, and what is the timeline for achieving the 4% NIM target? A: Russell Hutchinson, CFO, explained that the second quarter NIM expansion was strong, but several factors that contributed to it are not expected to continue. These include securities repositioning and lease termination performance recovery. The company expects continued benefits from liquid deposit and CD repricing, albeit at a slower pace. The base case assumes three rate cuts in the second half of 2025, with additional cuts in early 2026. The 4% NIM target is now adjusted to the high 3s due to the credit card sale, and while no specific timeline is given, the company remains confident in achieving this target.
