AIB has reported an operating loss of €2.8 billion for 2012. That is down 65% from €8.1 billion the previous year.

Dependence on European Central Bank (ECB) lending dropped at the bank by €9 billion last year to €22 billion at the end of December 2012.

9.1% of AIB residential mortgages are in arrears of over 90 days. While almost 18% of buy-to-let mortgage accounts are in arrears.
