As returns from cash management offers are forecasted to drop 12 percent, trade finance revenues for banks are poised to fall by 8 percent in 2020. But a somewhat fast bounce-back for transaction banking revenues is forecasted to take place next year, the Global Trade Review (GTR) reported, citing a Greenwich Associates report.
“The transaction banking industry has been in steady growth mode for the better part of a decade. In 2020, the global pandemic has brought that to a screeching halt,” the “Banking after COVID-19” report noted.
Banking revenue from international transaction services increased 2 percent compound annual growth rate (CAGR) during the last 10 years to approximately $400 billion in 2019. Transaction banking revenues are forecasted to drop by 6 percent in 2020 in contrast to last year.
