Provisions also decreased in the first three months of the year, a trend considered as allowing for a return to profitability by Greece’s four systemic banks. The total NPLs figure (delays more than 90 days) is above 90 billion euros, although a decrease in the figure of 400 million euros was recorded between December 2015 and March 2016.
