The total capital of the banking sector increased by 765.4 million manat over the year, a growth rate of 12.1 percent, and rose by 458.7 million manat since the beginning of the year. Monthly figures also maintained positive momentum with a one-percent increase. This expansion reflects a deliberate effort by banks to reinforce their buffers at a time of global financial uncertainty, creating additional protection against inflationary pressures, regional risks and potential fluctuations in credit quality.
