“Strong application volumes and a continued focus on customer retention in our core BTL and residential sub-segments delivered net loan book growth of 3% in the first quarter.
“While we remain mindful of the uncertain macroeconomic outlook, the growth so far this year and the current level of demand enable us to increase our full-year guidance for underlying net loan book growth from circa 5% to circa 7% for 2023.
“The NIM and cost-to-income guidance remain unchanged.”
The business recently reached £20bn in retail deposits.
