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

<ul>
<li>Of the six Malaysian banks screened, we keep RHB Bank and CIMB on the buy list; <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/public-bank-berhad" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:583:1" rel="noopener">PB Bank</a> and <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/malayan-banking-bhd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:600:1" rel="noopener">Maybank</a> are quality but seem fully valued by comparison</li>
<li>RHB Bank has, in the December quarter, maintained its improved its pre-provision profitability versus its peers; RHB’s high CET1 ratio understates its ROE, and it is attractive on PE multiples</li>
<li>CIMB once again improved its positive post-provision returns which should support CIMB’s share price given its modest valuations and attractive PEG versus peers; its high NPL ratio is fully provisioned</li>
