  • The Argentine banking system is beginning to return to a semblance of normality, with signs such as positive interest rates. But the road back to international standards is a long one. After many years of economic dysfunction and highly prescriptive banking regulations (including mandatory lending to segments and floors and caps on interest rates), it will take a long time for an orthodox banking sector to appear.
  • There are few banks that can advise wealthy clients across the multitude of different countries and cultures in CEE, but UniCredit has made itself the bank of choice for clients in nearly every single one, earning it the award for best bank for wealth management.

  • The US firm has a broad franchise in financial institutions, but whatever the sector and no matter what the solution, advice is at the heart of its offering.
  • Recovering profitability and capital as a result of restructuring, better economic growth and less threatening regulatory changes could see the European investment banks push back the Americans. There are already signs that Deutsche Bank is tentatively getting back on the front foot and could regain its position as the continent’s preeminent investment bank. Some European firms have forged an investment banking franchise with a very modern focus on returns instead of revenues.
