      In collaboration with

      Banking industry segmentation

      Our study is based on 68 of the banks domiciled in Luxembourg in 2024. We have categorized the banks into three distinct segments based on their primary business focus:

      • Private banks

        These institutions specialize mainly in managing the personal finances of high net worth individuals (HNWIs). They offer a comprehensive range of financial services tailored to the unique needs of affluent clients.

      • Depository banks

        These banks primarily provide custody services, safeguarding assets for their affiliated groups and institutional clients worldwide.

      • Universal banks

        Universal banks cater to a broader clientele by offering deposits, business loans, payment solutions and basic investment products, or a combination of all the services listed above.

      Two banks that specialize in issuing covered bonds were not included in these segments due to their specific business type. Branches were also excluded from our analysis.

      Breakdown by business type

      In this annual analysis of the Luxembourg banking market, we focus on the performance indicators that reflect the overall trends for each banking segment.

      We gathered the financial data from banks’ annual accounts as of December 2024 — 60% of the banks used LuxGAAP methodology and the remaining 40% IFRS. As these methodologies result in different levels of granularity, we standardized all indicators for both accounting schemes to provide accurate and consistent results.
