World Corporate and Investment Banking Report 2026
Navigate the great inflection point
How CIBs can rise to meet new pressures, new players, and new rules
Corporate and investment banking (CIB) entered 2026 at a decisive turning point: the industry remains on a growth trajectory but revenue momentum is slowing. At the same time, clients’ expectations are continuing to rise, and non‑banks and fintechs are fueling the competition by delivering more integrated, real-time, and personalized experiences.
Capgemini’s inaugural World Corporate and Investment Banking Report urges banks to break the structural barriers holding them back from innovating, and lean into four reinforcing capabilities:
- Adopt a flexible, connected business model that accelerates change.
- Build a scalable, flexible, and resilient data and technology architecture that powers real-time interactions, elevates decision making, and enables self-optimization.
- Become a trusted digital partner with AI governance embedded in every major decision across the enterprise and its ecosystems.
- Reinforce culture and invest in talent that supports innovation and client-centricity.
Key findings of the report:
- 17% is the anticipated CIB revenue CAGR decline for 2025–2029, vs 2022–2024
- 23% of surveyed client execs feel like banks are meeting their needs
- 71% of execs say fragmented data is their main blocker to value creation
