After experiencing a "sluggish" first quarterly report, A-share listed city commercial banks seem to be gradually emerging from the gloom. The semi-annual reports of 17 A-share listed city commercial banks have all been released. In terms of revenue, in the first half of 2025, 14 listed city commercial banks reported a year-on-year revenue growth, while 3 experienced a decline; the average growth rate was 5.22%, an increase of 2.26 percentage points from the 2.96% in the first quarter. In terms of net profit attributable to shareholders, in the first half of 2025, 15 listed city commercial banks achieved a year-on-year positive growth in net profit attributable to shareholders, while 2 experienced a decline; the average growth rate was 6.74%, an increase of 1.25 percentage points from the 5.49% in the first quarter. The ranking of asset scale has also changed. As of the end of June 2025, Jiangsu Bank's asset scale surpassed Beijing Bank with an advantage of 40.661 billion yuan. Previously, Beijing Bank had long led the A-share listed city commercial banks in asset scale. However, many bank executives mentioned that banks are gradually abandoning the "scale obsession." In terms of asset quality, as of the end of June 2025, 7 listed city commercial banks had a non-performing loan ratio of less than 1%
