Structural trends and sector outlook

  • European banks have shifted from years of negative rates and slow GDP growth to a more stable environment, with GDP growth around 1.5% and cost of risk stabilizing at lower levels.

  • Loan growth is closely tied to macroeconomic conditions; banks must balance margin defense with growth ambitions, as sacrificing margin for loan growth can erode returns.

  • Fee income diversification is key, with investment and insurance driving outperformance, but over time, broad diversification is more sustainable.

  • Sector-wide profitability dispersion is expected to increase over the next 12 months, ending the current period where most banks are lifted by favorable conditions.

  • Optimism is high for the short term, but medium-term visibility is less clear due to macro and regulatory uncertainties.

Profitability, growth, and management strategy

  • Sustaining a 20% return on tangible equity is seen as achievable, underpinned by operational efficiency, capital discipline, and a transformed business model.

  • Revenue grew 45% since 2021, with fee income up 45% and net interest income (NII) up 55%, driven by a shift to an EVA-positive lending portfolio.

  • Future growth will focus on targeted investments in technology, data, and people, with a strategic push into specific geographies, client segments, and products.

  • Market share gains are prioritized in core segments, with organic growth preferred over M&A, though readiness for opportunistic deals remains.

  • Maintaining cost-income and capital efficiency benchmarks is central, with a new goal to match fintech standards in client experience and efficiency.

Market-specific strategies and M&A

  • Italy, Germany, and Poland are identified as markets with potential for material impact; Italy is the anchor, contributing 50% of revenue and showing strong cost-income and RoAC improvements.

  • In Italy, organic growth is being accelerated with new hires, credit models, and technology investments, including AI, to sustain high returns.

  • Germany's HVB has improved profitability and capital ratios, with a focus on core market growth and a shift away from less profitable trading activities.

  • Regulatory changes in Germany are impacting capital allocation and growth in certain segments, prompting a tilt toward Mittelstand clients.

  • M&A is not essential for success but remains an option; the group holds a strategic 29% stake in Commerzbank, providing optionality and strong returns.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.

Frequently asked questions

One of Italy’s Largest Banks

UniCredit S.p.A., one of Europe's leading financial services companies, has a strong and distinguished presence across the continent. The Milan-based company, founded in 1998, delivers a range of services, from investment banking to commercial banking, from asset management to retail banking.

Despite the fierce competition, the bank has been able to establish itself as a pillar of the European banking sector.

Reaching outside of Italy

UniCredit's roots can be traced back to several Italian banking institutions. The company emerged in its present form in 1998 when several Italian banks merged, with the aim of creating an institution that could compete on the broader European stage. Over the years, UniCredit pursued a strategy of organic growth and expansion through key acquisitions. One such acquisition was the German bank HypoVereinsbank in 2005, which extended its reach into Central and Eastern Europe. Today they compete primarily with Intesa Sanpaolo domestically, as well as larger multinational institutions such as Deutsche Bank and Barclays.
