Standard Chartered's Wealth Management Activities Drive Growth

Standard Chartered’s massive upheaval has delivered improved profitability, with the bank now looking to increase returns closer to its cost of capital. The turnaround has been difficult, but CEO Bill Winters' approach appears to be working. He has addressed issues with risk controls, culture, and cost base, and the group has begun to trim markets and products where it lacks the scale to be competitive.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

With the bank’s restructuring largely behind it, a focus on growth should lead to an improvement in profitability in the medium term.

Bears

An increase in trade tensions between China and the US may affect global trade in such a way that it reduces demand for Standard Charter's products or makes it more difficult for the group to operate.
