NEW YORK, March 10 (Reuters) – Bank of America expects net interest income to grow 7% and investment banking to climb 10% in the first quarter, its Co-President Dean Athanasia said on Tuesday.

Global markets revenue will rise by a low double-digit percentage this quarter, leading to 16th consecutive quarter of year-on-year growth, he told a conference in New York.

Financial stocks rebounded Tuesday after slumping earlier in the week after the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran pushed oil prices higher and weighed on global equities.
