Taiwan financial groups report strong first-eight-month 2026 profits

  • Taishin Shin Kong Financial and Fubon Financial reported first-eight-month 2026 profits of NT$59.75 billion and NT$120.26 billion, respectively.
  • Fubon said FVOCI disposal gains lifted its cumulative retained-earnings impact to NT$233.68 billion, while Taishin Shin Kong's EPS reached NT$2.31.
  • Banking, insurance and securities operations supported both groups, with Fubon also citing asset-management gains and Taishin Shin Kong noting merger-related comparison effects.

Taishin Shin Kong Financial reported August 2026 after-tax net profit of NT$6.97 billion, up 48% year over year, and first-eight-month profit of NT$59.75 billion, up 222%, while Fubon Financial reported August profit of NT$24.68 billion and cumulative profit of NT$120.26 billion. Taishin Shin Kong's EPS reached NT$2.31, and Fubon's EPS was NT$8.30. Fubon said the first-eight-month impact on retained earnings reached NT$233.68 billion, or NT$16.40 per share, including gains from disposing of equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). Both groups benefited from strong banking, life-insurance and securities performance, while Fubon also reported strong asset-management and property-and-casualty insurance results. Taishin Shin Kong cautioned that its 222% growth rate was partly affected by the July 24 merger completed in the prior year, which left the comparison period without Shin Kong's full contribution.
