“2025 was another year of strong momentum. We achieved an underlying return on tangible equity of 14.7%, exceeding our three-year plan a full year early. We have made a good start to the year and continue to benefit from a supportive business environment. We are seeing robust growth in our larger markets, and structural shifts in global trade and investment play to our distinctive strengths serving our clients’ cross-border and affluent banking needs. We have increased our full year dividend per share by 65% and are announcing a new share buyback of $1.5 billion.”
