StanChart, Barclays see UK reform costs over $2 billion

Steve Slater and Sudip Kar-Gupta, 18:01, Wednesday 14 December 2011

LONDON (Reuters) - Extra British regulations and taxes on banks will cost Barclays (LSE: BARC.L - news) more than 1 billion pounds and Standard Chartered (Xetra: 859123 - news) over $500 million a year and are part of a flood of reforms that could backfire, the bosses of the two banks said.

Barclays was in demand following a big push from Citigroup The broker upped its target price for the lender to 245p from 230p and repeated its "buy" rating on the stock.

"We believe BarCap [Barclays' investment banking unit] can be a winner in the consolidating world of capital markets," said analysts at Citigroup.

The analysts concluded: "In the near-term we believe Barclays earnings could surprise on the upside via a combination of cost flexibility in the fourth quarter of 2011 and a seasonal revenue uptick in first quarter of 2012. Longer term much will depend on Barclays' reaction to new regulation, but we believe the bank is well placed to benefit from a wider withdrawal in FICC [fixed income commodities and currencies] competition".

Just sold here @219.75 +34.25 too much too soon.

Plateman - 19 Jan 2012 17:22 - 858 of 1362

Well done Skinny, excellent trade, I'm still long from 193.55, also long RBS from 22.89 and LLOY from 27.98.

skinny - 19 Jan 2012 17:25 - 859 of 1362

Hi Plateman - I'm hoping to get BARC @205-210 but may not get the chance this time. My last two trades on it have been similar - sell for
+30-40p and buy back 10-15 lower.

I also hold RBS and LLOY from varying prices both lower than yours BUT also some from higher!

Good luck!

Plateman - 19 Jan 2012 17:29 - 860 of 1362

Cheers Skinny, I expect we'll see a bit of a retracement from here, so you'll probably be able to get back in again.
