PRAGUE, Feb 4 (Reuters) - Komercni Banka BKOM.PR is
likely to report an 18% year-on-year rise in fourth-quarter net
profit due to lower loan loss provisioning along with rising net
interest income as lower interest rates ease costs on deposits,
a Reuters poll showed on Tuesday.
Attributable profit at the Czech Republic's third largest
bank, majority-owned by France's Societe Generale SOGN.PA , was
seen at 3.85 billion crowns ($158.08 million), according to the
average estimate of seven analysts.
The following is a summary of estimates, figures in billions
of crowns:
