Shanghai Pudong Development Bank, partly owned by Citigroup Inc., forecast unaudited net profit will surge about 150 percent year-on-year in the first three quarters of 2008.
In a statement to the Shanghai Stock Exchange on Tuesday, the mid-sized bank attributed profits to larger capital, wider interest rate margins, greater fee income and lower corporate income tax.
Net income in the first nine months last year was 3.923 billion yuan , or 0.90 yuan per share.
The bank is slated to report third quarter results on Oct. 30.
Shanghai Pudong Development Bank rose 3.92 percent to 14.06 yuan on Tuesday morning in Shanghai after the earnings forecast.
