Equity Bottom-Up

A recent meeting with <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/441" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:441:1">Bank Mandiri Persero (BMRI IJ)</a> in Jakarta confirmed a positive outlook for loan growth and net interest margins for 2019, with continuing incremental improvements to credit quality, especially in the MidCap and SME space.
The bank is optimistic about loan growth in 2019 but with a shift in the shape of growth, with Midcap and SME loans moving into positive territory, a slight tempering of growth from large corporates. 
Microlending continues to be a significant growth driver, especially salary-based loans, which have huge potential and are relatively low risk.   
Mandiri is switching its focus on smaller sized mortgages and is even offering products specifically targeting millennials. It is also training staff in its branches to promote both mortgages and auto loans, which should help to boost growth in consumer loans.
The bank is investing heavily in growing both Mandiri Online mobile banking, as well as working closely with the major e-commerce players in Indonesia. 
Management is optimistic about the outlook for net interest margins and comfortable with its funding requirements, with good visibility on credit quality. 
<a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/441" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:441:1">Bank Mandiri Persero (BMRI IJ)</a> remains a key proxy for the Indonesian banking sector, with an increasingly well-diversified portfolio and growing exposure to the potentially higher growth areas of microlending and consumer loans. The bank has fully embraced modern day banking with strong growth in Mandiri Online, which should help the bank grow its transactional business and its current and savings accounts (CASA). Its push to grow salary-based loans is another business with huge potential, given the low penetration of its corporate pay-roll accounts. According to Cap IQ consensus estimates, the bank trades on 12.5x FY19E PER and 11.0x FY20E PER, with forecast EPS growth of +16.5% and +11.8% for FY19E and FY20E.  The bank trades on 1.9x FY18E PBV with an FY18E ROE of 13.9%, which is forecast to rise to 15.5% by FY20E. Given its higher growth profile and rising ROE, the bank looks relatively attractive compared to peers.
