The British Pound recorded a new nine-month high against the Euro and a new 34-month best against the Dollar at the start of the new week, driven by rising global stock markets and expectations that the UK economy was on the cusp of a strong economic recovery.

Good start to the week Lloyds up 3.05%

The BoE’s plans come as prospects fade that the EU will grant “equivalence” status to UK regulations — dashing the City of London’s hope of regaining significant access to European markets.

The regulator’s proposal will toughen the rules for British banks versus their European rivals and potentially reduce the amount they can pay in dividends. Shareholder payouts are already strictly capped by regulators to ensure they retain enough capital to absorb Covid-related loan losses and continue lending through the pandemic.

The EU regulation changes — known as CRR2 — would have had a roughly €20bn aggregate capital uplift across the EU banking sector — equivalent to roughly 30 basis points of core CET1 capital — according to an EBA report last year.

Of that, about €3.6bn related to the five largest UK banks, meaning the PRA’s proposed changes will result in a substantial hit to the likes of Lloyds — which will lose out on more than £1bn of capital relief — followed by Standard Chartered and Barclays.

Additionally, smaller challenger banks such as Virgin Money, Metro Bank and Close Brothers are “acutely exposed” to the change due to recent big IT projects, according to Cant, the Autonomous analyst. Virgin would have benefited by almost £100m in extra in capital under the EU changes.

GBP/USD has surged back above the 1.3850 mark in recent trade, a strong recovery from earlier lows under 1.3780. Driving the upside in recent trade has been a broad decline in the US dollar, which prior to the start of US trading hours, had been the best performing currency on the day, but now sits in the middle of the G10 performance table. Pound sterling has replaced USD as the best performer on the day, with GBP/USD up around 0.3% or around 40 pips.
