Summary of the 2025 Corporate and Investment Banking Report

Core Content

The 2025 Corporate and Investment Banking Report by Boston Consulting Group (BCG) provides a strategic overview of the evolving landscape in corporate and investment banking (CIB), emphasizing the need for transformation and adaptation in the face of technological, regulatory, and geopolitical shifts. The report outlines three plausible scenarios for the industry through 2030, each with distinct implications for revenue growth, profitability, and competitive positioning.

Main Viewpoints

1. Industry Rebound and Growth Trends

• CIB revenues rebounded strongly in 2024, rising by 4% to \$827 billion, with total revenues (including non-bank financial institutions) reaching \$989 billion.
• Early 2025 results indicate continued growth, but the industry is in flux due to structural changes.
• Equity capital markets and debt capital markets saw significant growth in 2024 (54% and 39% YoY, respectively), while FICC remained flat and corporate banking declined.

2. Non-Bank Financial Institutions (NBFIs) are Rising in Influence

• NBFIs now represent over 15% of CIB revenue, up from less than 5% in 2010.
• By 2030, they are projected to account for up to 22% of total CIB revenue and 30% of trading revenues.
• NBFIs are particularly active in lending, advisory, and markets activity, driven by lean cost structures and agility.

3. AI is Transforming Operations and Productivity

• AI is no longer limited to isolated use cases and is becoming a core engine of transformation.
• Productivity gains are expected to be substantial:
• Corporate and investment bankers could see a 25%–40% increase in efficiency.
• Operations teams may see 20%–35% improvements.
• AI adoption is moving from experimentation to CEO-backed transformation programs, with a focus on high-value enterprise initiatives.

4. Digital Assets and Tokenization are Gaining Institutional Adoption

• Stablecoins are expected to reach a \$3 trillion market cap by 2030.
• Tokenization is being explored in repo transactions, collateral, and structured products, offering new levels of precision, automation, and traceability.
• Digital assets are reshaping payments, custody, and capital markets, with firms like Circle and JPMorgan testing stablecoins for foreign exchange settlement and securities payments.

5. Geopolitical Fragmentation is Reshaping the Financial Map

• The US tariff agenda and protectionism are accelerating de-dollarization and regional fragmentation.
• RMB usage is increasing in Asia, Africa, and Latin America, supported by bilateral swap lines and non-dollar settlement rails.
• BRICS countries are deepening financial cooperation, creating alternative payment frameworks.
• Europe is losing ground to Asia-Pacific (APAC), with the latter gaining momentum due to domestic investor growth and government-backed digital infrastructure.

Key Information

Revenue Projections

• CIB revenues are expected to grow by ~30%, reaching \$1.3 trillion by 2030.
• Stablecoins will reach \$3 trillion in market cap, and tokenized assets will exceed 5% of AUM.
• Non-bank financial institutions will capture 22% of the CIB revenue pool by 2030, up from 16% in 2024.

Scenario-Based Outlook for 2030

• CIB revenue grows at 4% annually, reaching \$1.3 trillion.
• Investment banking rises to 12%, while corporate banking declines to 50%.
• RoTE averages 16%, and cost-to-income ratios trend toward 56%.
• NBFIs reach 19% of the revenue pool, and private markets reach \$24 trillion in AUM.

2. Surge in Tech and Alternatives Scenario:

• CIB revenues remain around \$1.3 trillion, but profitability diverges.


• RoTE gap between leaders and laggards widens to 8 percentage points.


• FICC and equities are the main winners, with AI and digital assets enhancing productivity and creating new instruments.


• Corporate banking faces the steepest decline, shrinking to 46% of the product mix.

3. Shift to Regional Markets Scenario:

• EMEA and APAC gain ~4 percentage points more share of the global CIB revenue mix than the US.


• RoTE for global firms declines below 16%, while regional firms perform better due to localized strategies.


• Digital assets and AI develop unevenly due to regional regulatory frameworks.

Strategic Imperatives

• Modernize capabilities to stay competitive in a tech-driven environment.
• Expand into high-value segments, such as investment banking and digital assets.
• Make bold, targeted investments in areas with strong growth potential, such as AI and tokenization.
• Adopt a portfolio-based strategy to reinforce margins, secure new revenue streams, and build a presence in emerging domains.
• Reassess international footprints, reconfigure liquidity and risk hubs, and localize operations in response to geopolitical shifts.

Conclusion

The CIB industry is at a critical inflection point, with technological innovation, geopolitical shifts, and NBFIs reshaping the financial landscape. Firms that adapt quickly, leverage AI, and embrace digital transformation will be best positioned to capture value and sustain growth through 2030. The report underscores that strategic focus and innovation are essential to navigating an increasingly complex and fragmented market.
