The new buyback will reduce the bank’s common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital ratio by about 58 basis points towards its target range of 10.75% to 11.25% over time, the company said.

NAB said on Thursday it has completed another $2.5 billion on-market buyback, of 86.9 mln ordinary shares of the company.
