• HSBC plans to increase its share buyback by $19.5 billion by 2026, which is 23% more than the previous plan.
• The bank plans to increase its buyback by $1 billion by 2026, while other shareholders will receive an additional 0.1 billion dollars in buybacks.
• Trades Union Congress says the bank’s buyback plan will increase by 3% to at least 8%, which could lead to cuts in the budget.

HSBC plans to increase its share buyback for 2026 by $19.5 billion. In total, the bank expects to repurchase shares worth $19.5 billion in 2026 (14.5 billion dollars in cash), which is 23% more than in the previous year.

The materials state that the bank plans to increase its buyback by increasing the amount of cash available through wealth management activities. It also says that the increase in the buyback is due to the higher credit rating of the bank and the expected increase in investment income.

HSBC has also announced a new share buyback programme of up to $1 billion by 2026 (740 million dollars in cash). The bank plans to increase another buyback by 0.1 billion dollars by 2026, with an additional 0.1 billion dollars in cash.

In parallel with the buyback results, Velikobritaniya’s Trades Union Congress (TUC) has called for the bank’s actions. Trades Union Congress (TUC) says that if banks — HSBC, NatWest, Barclays and Lloyds — carry out such a buyback, they will increase their share buyback by 8% compared with the previous year, which is 8% more than 3%, meaning that it may be possible to reduce bank investment by 9 billion dollars over the next few years.

The materials also include a statement by HSBC Georges Elhedery about the increase in the bank’s buyback. In the statement, he says that the bank’s decision is aimed at returning capital to shareholders and that it is possible to increase the bank’s investment income. He also says that the bank’s financial results are strong and that the bank is able to support its shareholders through the buyback programme. He adds that the bank’s buyback is based on the bank’s strong financial position and its ability to maintain capital adequacy.
