Banco Comercial Português profit surge

Entities: Bank Millennium · Miguel Maya · Banco Comercial Português · Mozambique

Overview

In early July 2026 the Portuguese Stock Index (PSI) was reported to have risen in June, a gain that stood out while global technology stocks were slipping. The uptick signaled renewed domestic market confidence.

By the end of July, Banco Comercial Português disclosed a 12.7% increase in first‑half net profit to €565.8 million, driven by strong performance in both its home market and its Polish subsidiary. The earnings boost lifted the bank’s share price toward annual highs. While profitability rose in Portugal and Poland, the bank’s Mozambique subsidiary saw a profit decline, and non‑performing exposures fell, underscoring a mixed but overall improving financial picture for the institution.
