Galliano’s Financials Research

Galliano's Financials Research provides fundamental research in Emerging Markets financials, including FinTech, as well as financials in select Developed Markets.

The investment style applied is generally value oriented, although Growth At Reasonable Price (GARP) strategies can also be used where appropriate. 

Our investment research approach aim is often contrarian, looking to capitalise on overly sceptical or optimistic consensus views. In terms of valuation techniques, the focus is on PBV ratio to ROE, PE multiples and dividend yield, as well as the application of PEG ratios and, where appropriate, Sum of the Parts (SOTP) valuations.

Equity Bottom-Up

Bank Negara Indonesia Persero / Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>We rate Bank Negara as our top pick for its deep value attributes of low PE multiples and PEG ratio relative to sound returns and strong liquidity metrics</li>
<li>We also recommend Bank Mandiri, for its premium returns and modest PE multiples; Bank Central Asia, albeit fully valued, has impressive liquidity and return metrics</li>
<li>Bank Rakyat registered worsening returns in 1Q23, with pre-provision returns declining again QoQ and cost of risk rising; its loan mix implies a high structural cost of risk going forward</li>
</ul>
