What the Analysts think about NatWest Group
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for NatWest Group stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
NatWest’s first-half 2025 operating pretax profit rose 18% year-on-year to £3.6 billion, marginally beating analyst forecasts and enabling a £750 million share buyback alongside an upgraded return on tangible equity guidance of 16.5% for the year (Reuters).
A standout driver of NatWest’s performance has been its structural hedging strategy, which helped boost its net interest margin and deliver a return on tangible equity of 18.1% in H1 2025, underpinning confidence in further margin resilience (Financial Times).
The group achieved robust balance-sheet growth in H1 2025, recording £8 billion of loan book expansion—including £2.2 billion from the Sainsbury’s Bank acquisition—and adding over 1.1 million new customers, demonstrating successful execution of its domestic growth strategy (Reuters).
The UK government is reportedly considering a levy on banks’ interest earnings from reserves held at the Bank of England, with industry think-tank IPPR estimating it could tax around £22 billion annually, raising concerns over potential hits to NatWest’s net interest income and competitiveness (Reuters).
NatWest has flagged credit losses in niche sectors, recording a £76 million impairment charge on loans to alternative broadband network providers, reflecting emerging exposure risks amid financial strain in altnet peers (Financial Times).
Analysts caution that the stellar earnings momentum across European banks may decelerate as expected interest rate cuts and rising bad loan provisions could compress margins and pressure future profitability (Reuters).
