Standard Chartered to repurchase $1.5B in shares after reporting 18% profit surge

by February 21, 2025
written by February 21, 2025

Standard Chartered announced a $1.5 billion share buyback on Friday alongside an upgraded earnings target, following an 18% surge in annual profit, Reuters reported.

The bank attributed the strong performance to record growth in its wealth management division and robust market activity.

The London-based lender reported a pre-tax profit of $6 billion for 2024, marking an increase from $5.1 billion the previous year.

However, the results fell slightly short of analysts’ expectations, which had averaged $6.2 billion, according to estimates compiled by the bank.

As part of its shareholder returns strategy, StanChart declared a final interim dividend of 28 cents per share.

Additionally, the bank revised its 2026 return on tangible equity (RoTE) target to nearly 13%, up from its previous estimate of 12%, signaling confidence in future profitability.

(This is a developing story. Stay tuned for more updates soon.)
