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.

<ul>
<li>CCB is our preferred pick, given its attractive valuations, strong capital adequacy, healthy ROE and sound credit quality; CCB’s real estate exposure is limited and it sector delinquency is low</li>
<li>We also pick PSBC for its good value, its attractive PEG ratio and healthy credit quality and coverage; its real estate exposure, and its related delinquency, are both very low</li>
<li>We are negative on China Minsheng due to its low ROE, poor delinquency and NPL coverage, its high exposures to real estate relative to its peers and fast rising delinquency</li>
