NatWest Group has appointed Adeel Hyder as Managing Director of Business Banking. Hyder joins from Starling Bank, bringing experience in digital banking and support for small and micro businesses. The appointment signals a renewed focus on NatWest's UK business banking franchise as competition intensifies from digital banks targeting SME customers. Hyder's background suggests NatWest aims to enhance its offering to smaller businesses, particularly in user experience and product design. The move comes as business banking remains a core activity for NatWest. Investors may monitor changes in the bank's business banking priorities, including product mix and technology spending allocation. At £5.76 per share, NatWest trades approximately 24% below its £7.18 analyst target.
NatWest Group reported strong 2025 results, with total income rising 12% to £16.4 billion and earnings per share jumping 27%. The bank achieved a record 19.2% return on tangible equity whilst adding one million new customers and returning £4.1 billion to shareholders through dividends and buybacks. A key development was the acquisition of Evolent Partners, adding £69 billion in wealth management assets. NatWest lowered its CET1 capital target to approximately 13% and set 2028 goals of achieving a cost-to-income ratio below 45% and return on tangible equity exceeding 18%. For 2026, the bank expects total income up to £17.6 billion. Management reported no signs of consumer stress despite anticipating slight normalisation in loan impairments, whilst focusing on AI and digital initiatives to improve efficiency.
Manchester-based online eyewear retailer Shade Station has secured a £1.35 million loan from NatWest using the bank's intellectual property-backed lending proposition. The funding will support international expansion, AI-driven e-commerce development, and launch of a smart eyewear platform. The company plans a phased rollout of its smart eyewear platform throughout 2026, starting in the UK and Ireland before expanding to Nordic and DACH markets. The platform will offer next-generation glasses featuring heads-up notifications, navigation, real-time translation and fitness insights. Shade Station has grown its annual turnover from £4 million to £22 million under current management. The IP-backed loan, which uses the company's proprietary software and trademarks as collateral, has reduced interest costs by nearly 50% compared to traditional lending.
