Banco Santander México Reports Second Quarter 2022 Net Income of Ps.6,900 Million
- Robust YoY total loan portfolio growth, outpacing market performance, highlighting solid performance in individual loans. While loan volumes in the commercial portfolio were driven by strong pick-up in middle-market and corporate loans, meanwhile SME loans, remained soft.
- Total deposits continued growing at a solid pace while the Bank carefully manages funding costs by improving funding mix by favoring individual deposits. As a result of this estrategy, contribution of individuals in total deposits represented 37.2%, compared with 24.2% in 2016.
- Net income increased 46.4% YoY in 2Q22, mainly due to the strong performance in core business income, along with lower provisions for loan losses.

II. CEO Message
Héctor Grisi, Executive President and CEO of Grupo Financiero Santander México, commented: "Following my recent appointment as global CEO, and with the goal of making a smooth transition that enables us to advance the strategies that we have been successfully implementing in recent years, the Board of Directors recently appointed Felipe García Ascencio as the new CEO of Banco Santander Mexico. At the same time, we announced the strengthening of the Bank's internal organization, with the creation of two new Vice Presidencies, Retail and Commercial, headed by Fernando Quesada, and Administration and Finance, headed by Didier Mena. Under Felipe's new leadership, which combines extensive experience in strategic businesses and a distinguished track record, these appointments will enable us to continue effectively executing our many growth initiatives under a customer-focused strategy and to further consolidate Mexico's participation as a strategic business of the Santander Group.
With regard to our most recent financial results, 2Q22 was the best quarter in the Bank's history. We delivered a net profit of Ps.6,900 million pesos, 46.4% higher than 2Q21 and 29% higher than 2019's average profit. In other words, we have already exceeded the profit levels we had achieved before the pandemic.
During the quarter, we maintained very strong momentum in our core businesses, gaining market share in both individual and commercial loans, together with strong origination rates. Further, we are now operating in a healthier economic and market environment, as reflected in our solid growth in consumer products, helping us expand our loan portfolio without compromising asset quality.
Total loans grew 10.3% YoY, with strong performance across our portfolio. In individual loans, we continue growing faster than the market, supported by sustained market share gains in mortgages, auto loans and credit cards. The renewed growth in our credit card business was due to the continued market acceptance and solid performance of our innovative and newest credit card, LikeU. Additionally, we are now the number-three player in auto loans, reaching 14.2% market share and converging toward our share in loans to individuals, which was 14.9% as of May. Our strength in this segment is thanks to our attractive commercial offering and the various alliances we have with leading global automakers.
We also continued to expand our deposit base at a solid pace while carefully managing funding costs by further improving our deposit mix. It is also worth noting that the contribution of individuals has increased considerably in both term and demand deposits. To put our progress in perspective, deposits from individuals today account for 37% of total deposits, up from only 24% in 1Q16. This shift has reduced the gap in funding costs versus our main competitors.
Although our risk appetite has increased in certain business lines, we remain focused on asset quality and therefore our loan portfolio remains healthy. Thanks to exceptional risk management, our NPL ratio fell 23 bps YoY, while our cost of risk decreased 69 bps to 2.06% in 2Q22, the lowest level in the Bank's history. Also noteworthy were our second quarter provisions, which were at their lowest level since the first quarter of 2013, when the loan portfolio was 55% smaller.
Our profitability was also strong, with ROE reaching its highest level during the past twelve quarters, thanks to the strategies we have been implementing to increase loan volumes, mainly in the retail portfolio, and to normalize provisions as well as achieve more normalized capital levels. Looking ahead, we expect profitability to continue rising.
In summary, although domestic and global economic conditions are expected to remain challenging, we will continue advancing our strategic priorities, strengthening our market position and maintaining our profitable growth trajectory, while developing and implementing new growth initiatives. Throughout, we will remain focused on building a stronger franchise and our goal of becoming a customer-centric organization, never losing sight of our ambition to be the bank known for superior customer experience in Mexico."
