CBA stock (ISIN AU000000CBA7) was last at EUR 96.01 on Tradegate on September 22, 2026, after a prior close of EUR 94.45. Commonwealth Bank of Australia revised its Group Personal Trading Policy effective October 1, 2026, according to The Globe and Mail on October 2, 2026.

Trading controls become stricter

The revised policy replaces the previous framework for securities trading by staff, contractors and directors. It reinforces the prohibition on insider trading and expands pre-clearance and compliance requirements for specified persons and their associates.

For investors, the policy is a governance development rather than a change to the bank's earnings outlook. Its effective date of October 1, 2026 gives the update a precise operational starting point, while the broader controls apply across group and other securities.

Fiscal 2026 delivered higher profit

Commonwealth Bank reported fiscal 2026 figures for the year ended June 30, 2026 in its annual review. According to CommBank, cash net profit after tax rose 7.00 percent to AUD 10.982 billion, while statutory net profit after tax increased 8.00 percent to AUD 10.911 billion.

Operating income increased 6.00 percent to AUD 30.224 billion, but net interest margin declined to 2.05 percent from 2.08 percent in fiscal 2025. The bank declared a fully franked fiscal 2026 dividend of AUD 5.05 per share, including a final dividend of AUD 2.70.

ASX valuation remains substantial

Commonwealth Bank had an AUD 251.2 billion market capitalization as of October 2, 2026. Its ASX share price stood at AUD 150.22, with a 52-week range of AUD 146.98 to AUD 185.59 and a session change of plus 0.34 percent.

The market data put the stock near the lower end of that annual range, while the fiscal 2026 profit growth shows that operating performance and valuation are moving on different tracks. The bank serves retail and commercial customers mainly in Australia and New Zealand through retail banking, business banking, institutional banking and markets, and ASB.

Tradegate quote stays dated

The stock was last at EUR 96.01 on Tradegate on September 22, 2026, versus the Tradegate prior close of EUR 94.45, a gain of 1.65 percent. Price source: substitute price Tradegate, Lang & Schwarz without data set.
