2257 GMT - Margins are likely to be a key focus of investors when AMP unveils its 1H result on Aug. 7, says Citi. "Investors will likely seek assurance that its recent flow improvement in both platforms and Superannuation & Investment has not come at the expense of margins," analyst Nigel Pittaway says. The market also wants to be sure that the promised stability in bank margins is coming through. AMP has signaled an interim dividend of A$0.02/share. Achieving that will gladden the market, given the legacy issues that AMP continues to face, Citi says. "We also expect to hear more on the new digital bank and cost savings progress," the bank adds.
