Credit risk markets remained decoupled between the US and Asia as spreads on US Caa-rated entities continued to defy gravity. The risk-on wave continued to swell through US risk asses on additional positive vaccine news. Combined with a Goldilocks election outcome whereby President Trump loses the election, but Joe Biden does not win a mandate, spreads on the US Caa-rated complex tightened to inside Asia’s HY index for the first time since 2014. Is it time to sell the Caa bull market?  Treasury Secretary Mnuchin’s decision to cancel several underutilized emergency Fed programs at the end of the year may raise expectations for the Fed to expand its asset purchase program or target its purchases more directly along the Treasury curve at its December meeting. We are set-up for disappointment.  Against this background, Asia’s HY Additional Tier 1 underperformed Subordinated and Senior Unsecured securities as near-term global growth concerns outweighed vaccine progress. Most of the underperforming bond were issued over the last three months. This suggests these may have been issued at the top of the market, in spread terms. Amongst Additional Tier 1 bonds, Hong Kong-headquartered banks led advances. <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/bank-of-east-asia-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:341:1" rel="noopener">Bank of East Asia's (23 HK)</a> announcement that it would call its 5.5% coupon December-callable AT1 bond aided sentiment.

Victory lap over.Concurrently, Turkish HY Senior Unsecured bank bonds again materially outperformed their global peers following delivery of a more orthodox monetary policy regime. Nonetheless, Turkish bank bonds continue to trade wide of similarly rated entities in other emerging markets.  Given the starting point for a potential Turkish bank bond rally, we anticipate a virus versus vaccine market immunity in Turkish-bank bonds returns over the near term.   Over US$13 billion was raised by financial institutions in USD, Euros and Sterling across the credit continuum. Amongst higher-yield issued securities, the UK Co-operative Bank’s Caa1 rated bond makes India’s <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/iifl-holdings-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:20197:1" rel="noopener">IIFL Finance's (IIFL IN)</a> US$-bond look cheap in comparison. However, unlike India where every bank rescue requires a liability moratorium, the Co-operative Bank resolution three years ago was not damaging to the financial system. India’s rescue of <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/lakshmi-vilas-bank-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:17552:1" rel="noopener">Lakshmi Vilas Bank (LVB IN)</a> this week is no exception.

We could see a short-lived resurgence in early December and then drift sideways until heavy issuance re-emerges in January.Market Outlook: Over the near term, tension between longer-term optimism from vaccine driven economies and the shorter-term reality of increasing Coronavirus lockdowns are likely to weigh on the market in the coming weeks. Positive vaccine news combined with a goldilocks US election outcome lowers the likelihood of excessive US federal stimulus. This should cap additional upward pressure on US Treasury yields until vision increases on likely H2 ’21 US economic growth, post-vaccine distribution. Reflation remains on hold. This could limit US dollar weakness and limit positive impacts on reflationary beneficiaries such as bank valuations and Emerging Markets (EM) assets.

Bank Credit Weekly: Virus Vs. Vaccine: Time to Sell the Caa-Bull?

In this, the third of several short insights in our Yes Bank Deposit Run Anniversary Series, we incorporate deposits that are not captured in Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) reports to clear the miasma of really occurred at <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/yes-bank-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:767:1" rel="noopener">Yes Bank (YES IN)</a>.LCRs are based on a set of assumptions which may not prove to be valid during periods of stress, as recently occurred at Yes Bank. One major assumption is that only deposits which may be withdrawn on demand, or within the next 30 days are at risk of deposit flight. Only these deposits are captured in the LCR report. As such, we incorporate deposits that are not captured in LCR reports and compare these missing deposits to deposit costs. We then assess the “Missing Deposit” adjusted LCR ratio at each US$-issuing bank to see if this is priced-in from a credit perspective.Approximately one-year ago, India-headquartered Yes Bank began to experience a silent run on its deposits. To mark this inauspicious anniversary, we undertake a series of short insights to determine if the funding and liquidity lessons from Yes Bank are being applied at India-headquartered banks. Spoiler alert: they are not.As we noted in <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/insights/india-bank-deposit-flight-risk-lessons-from-yes-bank" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="insights:37617" rel="noopener">Lessons from Yes Bank</a>, India-headquartered bank funding franchises are more sensitive to potential deposit flight than displayed in their quarterly financial presentations. With an undue focus on the levels of current, savings and time deposits, the discussion neglects crucial factors which lead to a stable deposit franchise. At the same, undue reliance on Liquidity Coverage Ratios is not warranted.In our first insight on this matter, we derived the amount of stable deposits and compared this to deposit costs at each major India-headquartered bank. We then assessed these items relative to US$-denominated securities to see if they are priced-in, from a credit perspective.

India-Headquartered Banks: Missing Deposit Miasma 1-Year After Yes Bank’s Silent Run

Executive Summary: A Goldilocks scenario outcome whereby President Trump loses the election, but Joe Biden does not win a mandate led to material US High Yield (HY) index spread tightening, driven by Caa-rated entities.Markets were overpricing a Blue Democratic Party sweep prior to the US election, as we predicted. Now they are overpricing an inhibited tax and regulatory agenda under a Biden Presidency and Republican Senate. The run-off for two Senate seats in Georgia could see Republicans’ lose the Senate. As such, the amount of potential fiscal stimulus under the new administration remains difficult to handicap. Plus, regulatory changes are now largely driven by Executive Orders.In Asia, despite improving Purchasing Managers Index results and an unexpected acceleration in China’s October exports, Asia’s HY market underperformed the US on global economic growth concerns. Increasing Coronavirus cases in Europe and a pre-Christmas lock-down are a headwind for Asia’s export growth and tourism over the near term. Concurrently, Biden’s Coronavirus plan also adds to uncertainty. Furthermore, expectations that Joe Biden may be less confrontational than President Trump with China may prove wrong as the new President would focus on mid-term elections and the need to prove himself where he won narrowly. However, despite these potential negatives, Asia’s HY index looks oversold particularly relative to US Caa-rated index levels.The suspension of Ant Financial’s (<a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/ant-financial-services-group" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:24240:1" rel="noopener">Ant Group (6688 HK)</a> )initial public offering (IPO) in China and Hong Kong also negatively affected Asia’s risk sentiment and raised serious questions on China’s regulatory due process. <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/hsbc-holdings-plc-a723bd63-0890-486f-aaa0-3bb9ad2b95ce" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:21976:1" rel="noopener">HSBC's (HSBA LN)</a> shares sold-off following the Ant Financial announcement despite the firm not waiving interest charges on margin borrowing for the suspended IPO. With a China-centric growth strategy, HSBC’s business model is increasingly caught in the middle of a developing bi-polar world.Nonetheless, never missing an opportunity to test the market, HSBC Holdings was the only financial institution to issue debt in the global capital markets this week. We assess the attractiveness of these Euro-denominated bonds within. In Asia, primary US$-bond sales plunged to just US$0.9b from US$6.8 billion in the prior week as borrowers awaited the U.S presidential election outcome. With interest rates diving lower, we anticipate additional issuance over the next few weeks as issuers fill 2021 borrowing needs early.Against this background, Asia’s lower duration Senior Unsecured bonds outperformed Tier 2 and Additional Tier 1 securities, in concert with concerns surrounding global economic growth potential over the near term. The top performing and underperforming bonds were short- and long-duration in nature, respectively.  Market Outlook: A less expansionary US fiscal policy should reduce upward pressure on U.S. rates and is likely to support yield-seeking, including Emerging Markets (EM) fixed income securities over time. In the near term, risk asset and bank valuations may remain volatile through the year-end as large levels of cash remain on the sidelines.

*Better – But Not Good: Bank of Baroda (BOB.IN) [BOB] reported FY 2Q21 results of INR 16.8bn, quite a reversal of fortune from the losses of INR 8.6 bn in FY 1Q21. Several factors drove BOB’s outperformance: a) net interest income improvement of INR 7.5 bn (11.0%) linked quarter driven solely by NIM expansion of 31 bp to 2.86% while the loan book contracted 1.8%; b) fee revenue improvement of INR 2.6 bn (22.2%) on the back of higher loan processing fees as retail loan disbursements increased; and c) most importantly, an INR 26.3 bn (46.7%) reduction in loss provisions as annualized net new NPL creation dropped precipitously to just 2.0%;*Poor Reserve Cover: Excluding the September 2016 Supreme Court standstill on NPL classification, BOB’s NPLs still would have declined INR 19.9 bn (2.9%) and the NPL ratio would have been 9.30% - still improving 10 bp over the previous quarter. Anything over 8% suggest institutions are insolvent. By our calculation, however, BOB’s reserves still remain light by INR 245 bn or nearly ten quarters of pre-tax earnings – this prior to its merger with Vijaya and Dena Banks; and       *Capital Raise A Real Challenge: Merger-related challenges leading to growth slowdown, higher NPLs on portfolio alignment, and continued deterioration in the international business. Equity dilution is BOB’s single largest risk.
