BOJ rakes in net profits of $23 billion to November

  
The Bank of Jamaica (BOJ) is reporting net profits of $23 billion for the year to November 26.
 
This is slightly higher than the $20.5 billion generated as at November 25 last year. 
 
This was due to an increase in its foreign assets to $985 billion this year, mainly because its foreign bonds and long-term securities climbed to $56 billion from $54 billion last year. 
 
The bank's time deposits also jumped to $890.3 billion from $802.6 billion, while its special drawing rights with International Monetary Fund (IMF) zipped to $38.8 billion from $6 billion.
