Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce posted earnings that missed analysts’ estimates as the lender failed to benefit from rising interest rates.

Net interest margin -- the difference between what the bank earns on loans and what it pays for deposits -- contracted 10 basis points to 1.33% in the fiscal fourth quarter, the Toronto-based company said Thursday. Overall profit trailed analysts’ estimates for the three months through October.
