Piraeus Bank (BOPr.AT), opens new tab, Greece’s third-largest lender by market value, on Wednesday reported that its second-quarter profit more than doubled, helped by higher revenues from interests and fees.
Net profit came in at 330 million euros ($356.96 million) in the second quarter to June, up from 120 million euros in the same period a year ago.
Greek lenders are returning to normality after three recapitalisations that led to their nationalisation in the previous decade, when the country was rocked by a financial meltdown in late 2009.
