Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon
Vol 2 Chapter 606: 3 banks
Tying Gerald Pat to the chariot made Xia Yu feel more at ease.
This means that in British politics, he finally has a **** that can give him some help at many critical times.
Although he has a good relationship with the Howard family, the Howard family is too strong, and Xia Yu is not sure to tie him to the chariot for the time being, so when he draws on his power, he has to beware.
In the face of interests, no matter how good the relationship is, it may break. As the owner of a consortium, he must be cautious and cautious in this regard, and give himself more back and bargaining chips, so as not to be caught by the weakness and cause irreversible loss!
He only believes in his own strength!
Relying on the sky and the earth is worse than relying on yourself!
For the next period of time, Xia Yu put his mind on the Bright Fund.
His career is still in the early stages of development. He seems to have huge funds now, but it is not enough to put it in front of a real consortium. Every penny should be used as much as possible.
There is nothing wrong with the strategy of investing in holding shares of major British companies.
But there are too many large companies in the UK. Not only British companies are listed on the London Stock Exchange, but there are also large companies from various European countries. Xia Yu's 3 billion US dollars can also bubble up on it.
Moreover, he has an infinite wealth of memory and puts the money in the stock market to maintain its value. His goal is to expand his influence from the beginning to the end, or to lay an opportunity for future acquisitions. .
Just like the previous acquisitions of shares in companies such as Centric Group, Southern Scotland Power, and the British National Grid Corporation, there is such a strategic plan.
As long as you catch a company that will multiply tenfold in the future, you will make a lot of money.
Therefore, when the Bright Fund wanted to invest in bank stocks, Xia Yu also participated and selected the stocks of three companies.
They are HSBC Holdings, Standard Chartered Bank and Royal Bank of Scotland!
HSBC Holdings, which has several subsidiaries, including Hong Kong HSBC Bank, has a huge influence.
At this time, HSBC Holdings can rank among the top five banks in the UK, both in terms of capital and market value.
Although the shares of HSBC Holdings are relatively dispersed, these shares are in the hands of major British families or consortia. He heard that Duke Howard has a small portion, so if he wants to acquire HSBC Holdings, even if the capital is sufficient, he will face the United Kingdom. This is not something that money can solve for the major family consortia in China. With his current strength, connections, status and influence, it is too difficult.
But this does not prevent his Bright Fund from becoming a shareholder of HSBC Holdings. It would be ideal if he could hold 5% of the equity and win a seat on the board of directors.
Fortunately, HSBC Holdings has long been listed and has absorbed 5% of the equity in the secondary market. It is still possible to buy it at a large price.
As long as Bright Fund becomes a director of HSBC Holdings, Xia Yu will be able to use the energy of HSBC Holdings to accelerate its own rise in the future.
If one day, his strength is extremely strong, it may not be impossible to covet HSBC Holdings.
The second one is Standard Chartered Bank, which is much worse than HSBC Holdings. Now the total capital can't even enter the top ten positions of British local banks. If it is a single round of British domestic strength, let alone the top ten of British banks, the former Twenty may not get in.
Not to mention those foreign banks.
Standard Chartered Bank, also known as Standard Chartered Bank, was formed by the merger of two British overseas banks, namely the British South African Standard Bank and the Indian New Jinshan China Standard Chartered Bank in 1969.
In the UK, the strength of Standard Chartered Bank is very weak, that is, after the merger and listing in 1969, it acquired the local Hodge Group and Wallace Brothers Group. It has a certain degree of influence in the UK, but it is not strong.
The strengths of Standard Chartered Bank are in Asia, Africa, the Middle East and Latin America.
For example, in Africa, Standard Chartered Bank now has more than 900 branches and offices, which shows its terror.
If Xia Yu can acquire Standard Chartered Bank, his financial tentacles can instantly reach Asia, Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East. With the advantages of Standard Chartered Bank, he has certain advantages in energy, mining and other fields. .
Not to mention that Standard Chartered Bank still has the right to issue 10% of Hong Kong dollar notes, and it is also the second largest bank in Hong Kong.
If the acquisition is completed, with Standard Chartered Bank and Jiuding Bank in Hong Kong, Xia Yu can definitely fight against HSBC and become one of the second overlords. His influence will also skyrocket and he will become the first Chinese tycoon in Hong Kong.
Because Standard Chartered Bank has business and loan relationships with more than 60% of HeungKong's companies, such a high ratio is also because a company may have loans from several banks, and it can be a customer of Standard Chartered Bank as well as a customer of HSBC.
Of course this is not important. As long as Xia Yu becomes the owner of Standard Chartered Bank, he will instantly become the God of Wealth and major creditor of 60% of Heung Kong's companies.
Until then, if he wants to acquire any company, it will be easy, and he will even be pleasantly surprised to find that Standard Chartered Bank holds a part of the equity in the company he wants to acquire.
Just think about it!
As it happens, Standard Chartered Bank was not listed in Hong Kong, but listed in London, England. This was extremely beneficial to Xia Yu's acquisition. Before the Hong Kong Standard Chartered Bank had reacted, Xia Yu became their boss. UU reading www.uukanshu. com
The last target, the Royal Bank of Scotland, is Xia Yu's most important thing. The same difficulty is estimated to be the most difficult, but it is also the most valuable.
The Royal Bank of Scotland in the future was once the largest commercial bank in the UK, the second largest in Europe, and the fifth largest in the world.
In 2004, the market value rose to nearly 50 billion pounds, and the group's total assets reached 520 billion pounds. By 2009, the total assets reached 3.5 trillion US dollars.
But in the future, the Royal Bank of Scotland is still only a little-known British regional commercial bank in the world, ranking several hundred in the World Bank rankings.
Nevertheless, the Royal Bank of Scotland is not too bad. This ancient bank established in 1727 is the largest bank in Scotland, with more than 700 branches and a 40% market share in Scotland.
The second largest market share in Scotland is the Bank of Scotland, at least the word Royal.
Both banks have a characteristic, that is, their capital scale is small, but their management is very good, and the expense-to-income ratio is particularly low.
At this time, the fee income rate of Royal Bank of Scotland is only 54%, while the second Bank of Scotland is even lower, only 48%. Whether it is Lloyds Bank or Barclays Bank, the fee income rate is above 60%.
It is precisely because of the low expense-income rate that is more conducive to the management and operation of the bank. Although the capital scale is small, it is undeniably a high-quality potential bank in the banking industry.
In the future, the Royal Bank of Scotland will be able to resonate throughout the world.
Of course, from this point of view, the Bank of Scotland has a greater advantage than the Royal Bank of Scotland. Why doesn't Xia Yu target the Bank of Scotland?
