US banking giants are poised to return $80 billion to shareholders after this year’s Federal Reserve stress tests, less than last year’s elevated level that followed a pandemic-driven buyback pause.  

JPMorgan Chase & Co. is set to lead the group with $18.9 billion in combined dividends and share buybacks. 

Bank of America and Wells Fargo & Co. are expected to return $15.5 billion and $15.3 billion, respectively, according to the data compiled by Bloomberg based on estimates provided by analysts at Barclays.
