The Bank of America faces potential challenges due to possible regulatory changes by U.S. federal banking agencies that may require increased capital and liquidity levels. As a Global Systemically Important Bank (G-SIB), it must comply with stringent capital buffers, including the G-SIB surcharge and stress capital buffer (SCB), which are subject to annual reassessment. Any failure to maintain ‘well-capitalized’ status could lead to restrictions on activities such as dividend payments and stock repurchases, potentially impacting the bank’s financial operations. Additionally, proposed changes to regulatory capital requirements and stress testing could necessitate operational adjustments, affecting the bank’s ability to manage its capital efficiently.
The average BAC stock price target is $49.34, implying 10.21% upside potential.
