Lloyds and Barclays most preferred as UK banks 'still offer upside' and returns
Valuations across UK domestic banks have recovered strongly with a 140% total shareholder return since the start of 2024 but the sector still offers value, even if it is slightly less attractive than before, analysts at Jefferies believe. The implied cost of equity (COE) is now below 14%, which makes the investment case "less compelling" than before, the broker remains constructive on the sector and sees Lloyds Banking Group PLC (LSE:LLOY) and Barclays PLC (LSE:BARC) over NatWest Group PLC (LSE:NWG).

European banks have delivered strong returns since 2018, outperforming US peers and benefiting from improved balance sheets and higher interest rates. Despite high past returns and growing optimism, caution is warranted due to the sector's cyclical nature and slowing eurozone growth projections.
