Banks in the UK

Over the five years through 2023-24, UK banks' revenue is expected to grow at a compound annual rate of 0.3% to £123.2 billion, including anticipated growth of 9.9% in 2023-24. Low interest rates after the financial crisis limited the interest earned by banks from loans, hitting income. At the same time, a stricter regulatory environment, including increased capital requirements introduced under the Basel III banking reforms and ring-fencing regulations, constricted lending activity. To protect their profitability, banks have shut the doors of lots of branches and made substantial job cuts.
