**Arbuthnot Banking Group**’s (LON:ARBB) first-half 2025 results may show a sharp
drop in profits, but the real story is in where the bank is choosing to grow. In
this interview, Hardman & Co Analyst Mark Thomas breaks down how the group is scaling
its high-return lending arms, expanding profitable deposit streams, and prioritising
capital-efficient areas like wealth management. While profits halved, much of the
drop was anticipated and management’s strategic pivot appears to be gaining traction.
