Banca Mediolanum boosts its 2025 interest income forecast and confirms a higher dividend, with net inflows expected to remain strong.
(Reuters) -Italy's Banca Mediolanum said on Thursday its 2025 net interest income would be around last year's level, raising the forecast communicated in July, after posting an 8% jump in its net income for the first nine months of the year.
The Italian bank now sees the net interest income stabilizing in 2025 and growing in 2026, based on the current interest rate curves. It had previously projected a 3% decrease in the key metric for 2025, compared to last year.
It confirmed other parts of its annual guidance, with net inflows into managed assets of between 8 billion and 8.5 billion euros ($9.3 billion and $9.9 billion), and said it expected net inflows to be "equally sustained" in 2026.
"We believe all conditions are in place to close 2025 as one of the best years in our history," CEO Massimo Doris said in a statement.
The bank's board of directors has approved an interim dividend of 60 euro cents per share, Mediolanum said, confirming expectations that the overall dividend paid for 2025 would increase compared to the prior year.

A dividend is a portion of a company's earnings distributed to shareholders, typically in the form of cash or additional shares. It reflects the company's profitability and is often paid quarterly.
Managed assets refer to investments that are overseen by a professional manager or firm, which actively manages the portfolio to achieve specific financial objectives for clients.
Net inflows refer to the total amount of money that flows into an investment fund or financial institution, minus the amount that flows out. It indicates the growth or decline in assets under management.
An interim dividend is a payment made to shareholders before a company's annual earnings are finalized. It is typically declared and paid during the financial year, based on the company's performance.
