HSBC is strengthening its investment banking in the Middle East and restricting risky loans. It is expanding gold clearing services, enhancing its market position. Analysts expect earnings per share to grow from $8.8 in 2026 to $9.89 in 2027. The bank is focusing on core markets by reviewing non-core assets like its Turkish business.
HSBC faces risks from pulling back on riskier lending which may limit growth. Earnings growth is modest and depends on stable market conditions. The lack of clear management targets and guidance adds uncertainty to future performance.
The market currently prices HSBC with stable earnings growth but lacks clear consensus on revenue or valuation. Our view sees moderate earnings growth but cautious on risk management impacts and market conditions.
