Morningstar | Macquarie Upgrades Earnings Guidance Again

Macquarie's global business model has successfully navigated the operational and capital market headwinds affecting other larger investment banks. Although it is subscale compared with global peers, the firm has successfully replaced the significant revenue streams previously sourced from the highly profitable satellite-fund business model. Long-held strengths of adaptability, variable costs, a solid balance sheet, and capable management offset volatile market conditions and place the group in a strong position to leverage the market rebound. Funds management, corporate lending, and asset financing are strong performers, delivering lower-risk income at the same time that Macquarie's market-dependent businesses start to recover. Stronger global capital markets and increased transactional volumes are needed to boost earnings in market-facing businesses.The author's retirement fund owns shares in Macquarie Group.
