How analysts rate the bank

The coverage typically includes large names such as Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, Deutsche Bank, UBS and French brokers comparing the bank directly with BNP Paribas and Société Générale.

Across these notes, ratings tend to cluster around three buckets: Buy or Overweight for investors expecting solid capital generation, Hold or Neutral for houses that see limited upside versus current valuations, and Underweight calls where profitability or fee growth are assessed as muted. Specific wording differs by broker, but the focus often lies on retail banking margins, asset management fees and cost control.
