The Portuguese Banking Association (APB) launched a national awareness campaign, alerting citizens to the main risks of payment fraud .
Over the first nine months, the Portuguese banking sector continued to deliver an overall positive performance, supported by credit growth and the maintenance of robust solvency ratios. However, a slight decline in profitability was observed, associated with a reduction in net interest margins and an increase in operating costs, partially offset by a lower need for provisions and impairment charges.
