Commonwealth Bank of Australia on Smartkarma
Analyst coverage on Smartkarma reveals insights on Commonwealth Bank of Australia by Daniel Tabbush. In his report titled “CBA – Sharply Higher Past Due Loans, but Not Impaired, Alongside Surge of Australia Insolvencies,” Tabbush highlights the concerning trend of sharply high past due loans that are not impaired, coupled with worsening insolvencies in Australia. This situation could lead to a significant increase in credit costs for CBA in the coming periods. The report emphasizes the importance of not only focusing on Non-Performing Loans (NPLs) but also on loans that have the potential to become NPLs in a deteriorating economic environment.
According to Tabbush, CBA’s past due loans not impaired have increased by 43% in the past two years, standing at 2.6 times the level of NPLs compared to 1.9 times recently. Additionally, Australia has seen a surge in insolvencies across various sectors, potentially making past due loans more susceptible to transitioning into NPLs. This analysis sheds light on the risks associated with CBA’s loan portfolio and the broader economic challenges impacting the banking sector in Australia.
