However, Morgan Stanley notes FY25 margin income was revised down to US$750m from US$760m due to weaker average client balances.
Despite the margin income downgrade, underlying revenue ex-margin income remains in line with expectations, driven by continued strength in employee share plans and steady corporate actions activity, explain the analysts.
