Unfortunately, historical data for ROE in the prior years (up to December 31, 2019) is not available for comparison and trend analysis. A high ROE indicates that the company is effectively generating profit from the shareholders' equity, which could be attributed to efficient management of assets and liabilities, as well as strong financial performance. However, further analysis and comparison with industry peers and benchmarks would be necessary to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the company's financial performance and sustainability of the ROE levels.
