UK banks, including Barclays, Lloyds, and NatWest, are set to gain over £50bn from structural hedging, a strategy that manages interest rate risk through interest rate swaps. This approach, particularly the "caterpillar" hedge, allows banks to stabilize revenues and predict profitability amid fluctuating rates. Analysts highlight the varying strategies among banks, with Lloyds employing a dynamic method, while Barclays and NatWest favor a more mechanical approach, positioning them well for future interest rate changes.
Switzerland is expected to adopt new capital regulations for UBS Group AG gradually, which may impact the bank's payouts and the national economy. Analysts from Citigroup foresee a transition period that will allow for some flexibility in the implementation of these regulations.
Citi has reaffirmed a Buy rating on HSBC Holdings with a target price of GBP8.90, highlighting the bank's strong performance and strategic shift away from loss-making investment banking activities in Europe and the US. This restructuring is expected to yield $3 billion in cost savings, with minimal revenue impact. Additionally, HSBC has appointed Lisa McGeough as the new President and CEO for the US, marking a significant leadership change.
