For the six months to March 31, Westpac posted cash earnings of $3.525 billion, also a 10 per cent increase on the $3.195 billion recorded for the same period a year ago.
The lender announced a fully-franked interim dividend of 86 cents - four cents more than the previous corresponding period.
In addition, Westpac will pay a fully-franked special dividend of 10 cents.
Both the interim dividend and special dividend will be paid on July 2.

Ms Kelly says all of the bank’s Australian businesses produced double-digit cash earnings growth compared to the same period last year.
