Return on Tangible Equity (ROTE) is a financial metric used to measure a company's profitability relative to its tangible equity. It indicates how effectively a company generates profits from its equity base.
A Dividend Policy is a company's approach to distributing profits back to shareholders in the form of dividends. It outlines how much of the profit will be paid out and how often.
The Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) Ratio is a measure of a bank's core equity capital compared to its total risk-weighted assets. It is a key indicator of financial strength and stability.
Revenues refer to the total income generated by a company from its business activities, typically from the sale of goods and services, before any expenses are deducted.
