AN ARTICLE A DAY, PICKED BY OUR EDITORS
Thus far, banks have escaped the worst of the pandemic’s economic impact—they didn’t witness any abnormal losses, major capital calls, or “white knight” acquisitions, as in the last financial crisis. There were plenty of effects on the financial-services industry, though: to take just a few examples, the acceleration of digital banking, the rise of remote work, and the growing importance of sustainability were marked trends. Does that mean the future is bright and smooth for banks and their shareholders? Not quite; the industry’s outlook remains cloudy, particularly given that half of banks can’t cover their cost of equity. Get a read on the landscape and what can make a difference for long-term performance in the latest edition of McKinsey’s Global Banking Annual Review. Download the full paper for free and explore even more findings about the state of this crucial industry.

“Don’t take any decision that is of any relevance in the first nine months after having a baby. I’ve stuck to that. The funny thing is you get back in the saddle soon enough. It’s a matter of muddling through.”
