The bank’s strong focus on efficiency, combined with its EUR hedging strategy and improving profitability from its Polish operations, has positioned it favorably in Citi’s analysis.
Citi estimates Banco Comercial Portugue will achieve a cost-to-income ratio of approximately 37% over 2025-28, which it describes as "best-in-class" among peers.
The research firm projects a statutory return on tangible equity of approximately 14-17% over 2025-28, which exceeds the peer average according to their analysis.
