Macquarie Group Continues to Outperform Banking Majors with Superior, Fully Digitized Platform, Jarden Says

Macquarie Group (ASX:MQG) continues to outperform banking majors with a simple and fully digitized platform, according to Jarden in a Thursday note.At this pace, Macquarie may surpass around 10% market share on both sides of the balance sheet in the near term. Commonwealth Bank of Australia's (ASX:CBA) net interest margin edge, free deposits look tenuous with IT and competition from Macquarie, ANZ Group Holdings (ASX:ANZ, NZE: ANZ), National Australia Bank (ASX:NAB), and potentially, stablecoins. Strong volumes are offset by competition.Jarden considered the fiscal year 2026 Australian budget as changing incentives, increasing complexity, and exacerbating the skew to financialization over increasing physical industrial capacity.High valuations reflect market index concentration and disappointment in other sectors, but expose major banks to abrupt and extreme mean reversion if the status quo changes.The investment firm assigned ANZ Group an overweight rating and price target of AU$35.50 per share. It also has sell ratings on Commonwealth Bank, National Australia Bank, and Westpac Banking (ASX:WBC, NZE:WBC) with price targets of AU$90 per share, AU$29 per share, and AU$31 per share, respectively.It also assigned Macquarie a buy rating with a price target of AU$250 per share, Bendigo and Adelaide Bank (ASX:BEN) a neutral rating with a AU$11 per share price target, Bank of Queensland (ASX:BOQ) a sell rating with a price target of AU$5.50 per share, and Judo Capital Holdings (ASX:JDO) a buy rating with a price target of AU$2.50 per share.

APRA to Introduce Three-Tiered Approach to Proportionality in Prudential Framework for Banking

The Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) wrote to banks and confirmed plans to formally introduce a three-tiered approach to proportionality in its prudential framework for banking, according to a Wednesday statement.Effective July 1, APRA said it will introduce a third tier of "Most Significant Financial Institutions" for banks with total assets of over AU$300 billion, raise the asset value threshold for banks to qualify as a "Significant Financial Institution" (SFI) to AU$30 billion from AU$20 billion, and automatically provide a 12-month transition period when a regulated institution moves to a higher tier.The regulator said the planned move was in response to the Council of Financial Regulators' review into small and medium-sized banks, undertaken in consultation with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission.APRA also committed to providing non-SFIs with additional time to comply with new and revised prudential requirements when appropriate.Judo Capital Holdings' shares shed about 1% in recent Wednesday trade.

Judo Capital Holdings Expects Fiscal Year 2026 Profit at Lower End of Guidance

Judo Capital Holdings (ASX:JDO) said third-quarter lending growth, net interest margins, and operating expenses remain on track, reaffirming fiscal year 2026 profit before tax guidance of AU$180 million to AU$190 million, albeit toward the lower end, inclusive of a top-up to its collective provision in response to current economic conditions, according to a Thursday Australian bourse filing.The bank's third-quarter net interest margin (NIM) rose to about 3.15% from 3.03% in the first half of the fiscal year, in line with existing second-half NIM guidance, with gross loans and advances (GLA) growing to AU$13.8 billion on March 31 from AU$13.4 billion on December 2025, the filing added.Attrition improved to 15% annualized in the third quarter, down from 33% in the second quarter, driven by lower levels of external refinances and discretionary paydowns, while total deposits increased to AU$11.5 billion at March 31, the filing added.Common equity tier one (CET1) capital remained at 12.6% at March 31, unchanged from December 2025, with 90-day-past-due and impaired loans at 2.65% of GLA, a slight improvement from 2.66% in December 2025, the filing added.Full fiscal year guidance includes NIM at the upper end of 3% to 3.1%, a cost-to-income ratio below 50%, and GLA of AU$14.4 billion to AU$14.7 billion, with new term deposit pricing expected to normalize to within 80 to 90 basis points over one-month bank bill swap rate (BBSW) by the end of the fiscal year, it added.
