UBS Global Technology and AI Conference summary
11 Jan, 2026Strategic focus and operational simplification
Post-Worldpay divestiture, focus shifted to core banking and capital markets, driving revenue growth from 3% to 4% with further acceleration expected in the medium term.
Operational simplification and cost programs like Future Forward are removing $280 million in costs, offsetting dyssynergies from the divestiture.
Enhanced customer centricity and improved digital sales have led to increased core signings and cross-sell, especially in community banking.
Capital allocation has prioritized shareholder returns, with $4 billion in repurchases and a clear stance against unnecessary acquisitions.
Execution in core markets remains the key driver for future upside.
Banking revenue growth and pricing
Underlying banking revenue growth, excluding Worldpay and pandemic-related revenue, is estimated at 4%.
Market share gains in community banks are expected to support future growth, with digital and core wins boosting confidence for 2025-2026.
Pricing strategy is evolving, with less reliance on CPI escalators and more focus on reducing compression and bundling products.
Improved product quality and digital investments are expected to reduce pricing pressure and enhance bundled sales.
Positive pricing trends are anticipated in 2025 as sales and pricing sophistication increase.
Capital markets guidance and M&A
Capital markets guidance for 2025-2026 includes 1.5-2 percentage points from acquisitions, with organic growth at 6.5%.
Annual guidance only includes completed acquisitions, with transparency on acquisition impacts.
An imminent acquisition will impact next year’s results, and guidance will be updated accordingly.
