Returns compare closes and leave out dividends. The record starts on 3 Jul 2026, so the past-year range covers only what is on record. Volatility is the annualised standard deviation of daily returns. Liquidity counts ESX weekdays that are not published closing days. Spreads average every archived snapshot with a bid and an offer.

P/E is the latest price over the latest annual earnings per share; P/B is price over book value per share; company value counts all shares, not only those listed. No dividend yield is shown: the banks declare dividends as a yearly total, not per share. Figures and sources are on each company page; compare the banks.
