in the first quarter of 2022, the net interest income increased rapidly, the handling fee income maintained positive growth, the asset quality was stable, the provision remained at a high level, and the performance was better than that of comparable peers. First, the scale grew rapidly. Under the pressure of interest margin, it ensured a good growth of net interest income.
