Saudi British Bank (SABB), one of Saudi Arabia's largest banks , posted a slight increase in first-quarter net profit to SR760m ($202.7m), broadly in line with analysts' forecasts.

Net income in the three months to March 31 rose less than one percent from SR757m in the year-earlier period, the firm said in a statement on the bourse website.

Forecasts for SABB's first-quarter profit ranged between SR708m to SR765.7m, according to a Reuters survey this month. (Reuters)
