What changed

Versus the prior analysis, the tone improved from cautious to confident: loan growth resumed, the transformation plan was described as on schedule, operating-cost growth stayed below inflation, and full-year guidance was reaffirmed.

Guidance delta

Maintained: management reaffirmed full-year guidance for net interest income and profitability.

Key takeaways

  • Operating expenses grew below inflation, while insurance remained a strong earnings contributor.
  • Management said the transformation plan is on schedule, with digital, branch and credit initiatives progressing.
  • Credit quality improved, but spreads, funding costs and mass-market and SME provisions remain important watchpoints.

Management priorities

  • Expand payroll, mortgage, SME and corporate lending while improving credit models.
  • Continue the transformation plan, including branch-footprint changes and digital expansion.
  • Scale Bradesco Expresso and expand merchant adoption nationwide.
