schema:articleBody	Spanish banking giant Banco Santander said Tuesday it had returned to profit in the third quarter after massive losses in the second of 11 billion euros due to the coronavirus pandemic. Third quarter net profit of 1.75 billion euros was also better than analyst estimates for 1.0 billion euros compiled by financial information service Factset. "Activity came back vigorously (after the second quarter lockdown) and as a result the third quarter was much better than the second," bank head Ana Botin said in a statement. The bank's diversification into several markets "has been a key driver of our recovery, with South America performing well and the UK recovering strongly in the third quarter," she added. The company also benefited from cost savings worth 500 million euros compared with 200 million in 2019. The massive second quarter loss was Banco Santander's first ever three months in the red as it was forced to write down the value of several subsidiaries, most notably in the UK. For full-year 2020, Botin said the bank hoped for earnings of around 5.0 billion euros, without specifying if this was a net figure. Despite the much improved third quarter performance, for the nine months to September Banco Santander still reported a net loss of 9.0 billion euros. The bank said it expects it will post an underlying profit for the year of around 5.0 billion euros. Bad loan provisions for the nine month period were up 42 percent from 2019 at 9.5 billion euros. Santander said it would seek approval for the payment of a EUR0.10 dividend ($0.11) in 2021. Spain has been one of the countries worst affected by the coronavirus pandemic and while its tourism-dependent economy generally did better in the third quarter, a resurgence in cases has led to new restrictions which many fear will once again hit business hard. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) sees Spain's GDP slumping by 12.8 percent this year, in what would make it the hardest-hit country among the world's advanced economies. emi/bmn-ds/bmm
