We rebase our Santander model for the Poland disposal, TSB consolidation, the approved Webster acquisition, and the restated reporting basis. We credit most of the 2026-28 plan but assume roughly half the cost program, leaving 2028 returns just short of management's target.
Santander operates in regions with higher growth prospects and levels of profitability compared with its European peers.
With 70% of its earnings coming from outside the eurozone, Santander is highly exposed to currency risk, especially emerging-market currency risk.
