The top 10 players in Q1 2018 remained unchanged in Q2 2018, with JPMorgan maintaining its No.1 position. The aggregate Mcap of the top 25 banking institutions declined 5.5% to US$3.5tn in Q2 2018, from US$3.7tn at the end of Q1 2018.

Eighteen of the top 25 banks witnessed negative Mcap growth in Q2 2018, with eight of them, the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, China Construction Bank, Agricultural Bank of China, Banco Santander, Itau Unibanco, Sberbank Rossii, BNP Paribas and PNC Financial, declining by more than double digits. The escalating trade war between the US, China and the EU adversely affected bank stocks in the quarter.

Of the seven banks reporting Mcap growth, HDFC Bank was the only player to achieve double-digit growth at 12%.
