National Australia Bank (ASX:NAB) appears to be letting go of its UK assets as it held talks last night to sell its Clydesdale and Yorkshire banks to investment group NBNK in a deal valued up to $2.3 billion.
NBNK is understood to be keen on the sale because it will mean a banking licence and funding for its bid for the 632 branches Lloyds Banking Group is selling. NAB on the other hand, will get an exit option from an underperforming market.
National Australia Bank (ASX:NAB) booked quarterly cash earnings of $1.4 billion but said the revenue came amidst challenging conditions.
Although revenue increased in the personal and business banking divisions for the three months to June, the growth was offset by a revenue cut from its wholesale banking unit.
National Australia Bank's (ASX:NAB) is waiting to put an indicative bid for the 632 Lloyds Banking Group branches up for sale. NAB did not want to cave in to pressure when the bid process was stepped up.
Lloyd's chief executive Antonio Horta-Osorio set a Monday deadline for indicative bids, stunning potential bidders. The date was much earlier than expected for the deal that could reach $4.8 billion.
National Australia Bank's (ASX:NAB) New Zealand Division sold its very first covered bonds in Australia, which cut funding costs as the market grows for securities back by assets. The bank priced its $700 million five year debt for 88 basis points, which is more than the swap rate. The sale adds $2.3 billion to securities sold by the three leading banks in Australia this year.
