Canada’s two biggest banks posted profits of more than $3 billion dollars each in the second quarter, exceeding analyst expectations.

TD Bank Group earned a second-quarter profit of $3.17 billion, up from $2.92 billion in the same quarter last year.

The Toronto-based lender says its profit increased by 6.7 per cent compared to the same time period one year ago.

At RBC, total provisions for credit losses climbed to $426 million, up from $274 million in the same quarter last year, due to higher provisions in personal and commercial banking, wealth management and capital markets.
