Bank Central Asia's first-quarter net profit rose on the back of a record growth in net loans and a drop in provisions.

Indonesia's largest private bank said late Monday that quarterly profit rose 12% on year to 12.879 trillion Indonesian rupiah ($793.3 million).

Net interest and shariah income rose 7.25% on year to IDR19.823 trillion, while net fee and commission income rose 8.15% on year to IDR4.326 trillion.

Impairment losses on assets in the quarter fell 30% on year to IDR1.025 trillion.
