July 19 (Reuters) - The shares of Northern Trust (NTRS.O) jumped by more than 14% on Wednesday after the asset and wealth manager reported a smaller-than-expected drop in second quarter net interest income underpinned by higher interest rates and slower deposit losses.
Analysts were, however, expecting a bigger drop in Northern Trust's quarter-on-quarter NII just like State Street.
Northern Trust's shares were trading at $82.14, on track for its biggest one-day percentage gain since March 2020.
Total revenue fell 1% to $1.77 billion in the quarter as Northern Trust generated fewer fees from its custodial, investment, and wealth management businesses.
Northern Trust said its total assets under custody increased 5% to $14.48 trillion, while total asset management also rose 5% to $1.37 trillion.
