Thematic (Sector/Industry)

There is a problem with official statistics in China. Put simply, they cannot be relied upon. From coal consumption, steel or iron ore production, the quality of groundwater, or even the figures for GDP, the official statistics rarely tell the full story. Officials have been found faking the figures and often selling inside information to the highest bidder. Although general trends can sometimes be right, good policies depend on accurate information.

Many companies that had previously been big investors in Chinese manufacturing plants are now considering their options. An increasing number argue that the ASEAN countries have a lot to offer, particularly with the removal of tariff barriers.

Tabbush Report

We provide research and consultancy on Asian banks. Our focus is on what we call “Asian bank research, without the noise.” We are interested in the most critical swing-factors for banks, the NPL and credit cycle, and where we believe there is a gap between perception and reality. We often focus on the less studied components of bank financial statements.  Our research is highly thematic, sometimes examining unlisted banks and companies as a window on mainstream banks. 

Being independent allows us to look at smaller banks, often overlooked by others. Analysis of BIS bank guidelines in the context of Asia, is also a focal point, while we also analyze global banks operating in the region. We use what we believe is the most comprehensive, reliable financials database, SNL Financial. S&P Capital IQ augments our database, with corporate data and CEIC, with economics. 

Asian bank research, without the noise.

We all intuitively understand the concept of economic growth and keeping current with debt. But where so many commentators continue to proclaim China’s growth as being relatively strong, we feel compelled to disagree. It is not relatively strong compared with debt. The mirror image of the boon in credit for banks in China over the past several years is a high level of liabilities at the corporate level.

China - Growth Must Be Fantastic to Support Loan Payments

In order to advance, Chinese industry needs to become innovative. The track record to date is poor, with few examples of genuine innovation and rather too many instances of attempts to deceive and straightforward fraud.
