China Construction Bank on Smartkarma

According to Daniel Tabbush, a top independent analyst on Smartkarma, China Construction Bank H will be listing its subsidiary, China Housing Rental. However, this may not have a significant impact on the bank’s overall credit metrics, which are currently weak. Tabbush highlights that the proceeds from the listing may be overshadowed by the bank’s high number of non-performing loans (NPLs), which have increased significantly in recent years.

Despite reporting lower credit costs, China Construction Bank H‘s NPL distribution has weakened, with loss NPLs increasing by 2.5 times from FY19 to 1H23. This is a much higher increase compared to the bank’s total NPLs, which have only risen by 1.5 times. As a result, Tabbush suggests that the bank’s declining and low credit costs may not last. This information comes from Tabbush’s research report titled “CCB- Housing Rental Subsidiary Listing May Be Overshadowed By Weak Credit Metrics” on Smartkarma, a leading independent investment research network.
