Financials: which companies drove growth

The 20 largest Financials companies by market cap at the end of Q2 2025 (30 Jun 2025), compared with Q1 2025.

The top 20 at Q2 2025

Q2 2025 vs Q1 2025: combined net profit $73.1B (+8%), median EPS +7% (13 of 20 up), market-cap-weighted price +6%. 20 of 20 reported.

Weight is each company's share of the 20 companies' combined market cap. Contribution is the change in its owners' profit divided by their combined base profit, in percentage points, so the column adds up to the sector's earnings growth. EPS cannot be added across companies, which is why contributions use profit.
