UK Sparks: Banks Scrap Dividends After Pressure From PRA
Britain’s largest banks HSBC Holdings, Barclays, Lloyds Banking Group, Royal Bank of Scotland and Standard Chartered have scrapped dividend payments after pressure from the Bank of England’s Prudential Regulation Authority to preserve capital. The banks have agreed to cancel remaining payouts for 2019, not pay any other dividends this year and suspend any share buyback programmes. Barclays chairman Nigel Higgins says: “These are difficult decisions, not least in terms of the immediate impact they will have on shareholders. The bank has a strong capital base, but we think it is right and prudent, for the many businesses and people that we support, to take these steps now.”

UK Sparks: Oil Price Slump To Cost Shell Up To $800m
Oil major Royal Dutch Shell has warned of after-tax impairment charges of between $400-800m in the first quarter of this year, due to changes in the oil price. The company says each $10 movement in the price of a barrel of Brent crude hurts it by about $6bn a year. It says the coronavirus is causing “significant uncertainty” with regards to prices and demand for oil, gas and related products. In addition, “recent global developments and uncertainty in oil supply” have caused “further volatility” in commodity markets.
