Wells Fargo & Company’s community banking segment has reported a net income of $3.5bn for the third quarter of 2014, an increase of 4% compared with the year ago quarter.

For the quarter ended 30 September 2014, the unit posted revenue of $12.8bn, a rise of 5% from a year ago.

The bank in its financial statement attributed the rise in quarterly revenue to primarily to higher net interest income, trust and investment fees, card fees, and market sensitive revenue.

The provision for credit losses increased to $465m to from $240m a year ago as the $290m improvement in net charge-offs was more than offset by a lower reserve release, the bank said in its financial statement.

Overall, Wells Fargo group reported a net income of $5.73bn, compared with year-earlier profit of $5.58bn. Revenue increased 3.6% to $21.21bn.

The bank’s community banking segment offers a complete line of diversified financial products and services for consumers and small businesses including checking and savings accounts, credit and debit cards, and auto, student, and small business lending.
