Despite some operational problems, it means focusing on rapidly growing developing areas Carted Standard‘s (LSE: Stan) has provided strong returns over the past decade.

At 11.56 pounds per share, FTSE 100 The bank increased by 20.3 % of the 961.3p value that was traded in 10 years. It was a cloud that would transfer a cut amount of 10,000 pounds at the time to 12,028 pounds, cold today.

The total return also improves, when adding stock profits over the past decade. Since mid -2015, the total profits of work reached 109.7 pixels per share. As a result, an investment of 10,000 pounds in the bank has produced a total return of the shareholders of 13,169 pounds, or 31.7 %.

This is not bad, but it is barely an amazing result. To put it in its correct perspective, the Footsie team achieved a broader return of 82.9 % in this time frame.

Emerging market colleagues HSBC Better returns were also delivered during that time. With the combination of capital gains with profit distributions, the total revenue of the Asian Stanchart competitor is slightly higher than 100 %.

As I indicated above, the bank suffered a number of setbacks that fall between 2015 and 2020. Compliance problems resulted in severe damage to reputation and severe financial fines. She also had a strong restructuring to improve performance and enhance the public budget.

But with these issues now in the distant past, can standard stocks offer better returns from now on?

The bear issue

Like any bank, the company is very sensitive to the wider economic conditions. During the decline, profits can decrease with a decrease in demand for financial services. At the same time, the weaknesses can be fired through the ceiling.

This is a great danger to FTSE as the main fall of the Chinese economy, causing wider problems across the Asia and Pacific region. Standard rented sources around three quarters of revenue from customers in this region.

It is concerned about banks in the country, and the real estate sector in China continues to soften as well. Stancart has not been strange to large real estate companies in recent years.

Existing banks like this also face intense competition from digital banks. According to Statista, the net benefits income between digital competitors only will grow at an annual rate of 9.36 % between 2025 and 2029.

Taurus issue

After saying this, Standard Chartard has its own success in the digital field. Mox and Trust’s platforms (in Hong Kong and Singapore, respectively), enjoyed strong seizure after launching in recent years. The bank has significant resources to continue building its presence in this main growth sector.

What is more, while Asian banks may suffer from some discomfort in the short term, the long -term view of the continent is still very bright. As with Stancart markets from Africa and the Middle East, there is a room for great profit growth with high levels of personal wealth and the population steadily increasing.

Today, the shares are trading on the price ratio (P/E) from 8.2 times. It is also trading on the rate of price to four (PEG) sub -(PEG) from 0.6.

These readings fail to reflect the tremendous growth capabilities of Standard Chartered, in my opinion. I think it’s the best FTSE 100 class to consider now.
