March 12 (Reuters) - Poland's biggest lender PKO BP PKO.WA reported fourth-quarter results above estimates on Thursday, as lower provisions for legal risks related to its Swiss franc mortgage portfolio and higher net fee income outweighed a decline in interest income.

The bank's net profit stood at 2.72 billion zlotys ($737.31 million), compared to 2.53 billion zlotys seen in a company-compiled consensus.

($1 = 3.6891 zlotys)
