Standard Chartered (STAN): news on Wednesday 30 September 2026
+2.2 slightly positive
Coverage was mostly about the bank's crypto research note on Ethena, ESG awards, a new brand campaign and government talks in Pakistan. A drag came from reports that buyers of its Bangladesh retail arm balked at a staff condition, and a small share price dip.
