Research and consultancy

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.

Ant Financial has essentially passed through all hurdles in its acquisition of a 50.55% stake in Bright Smart Securities (1428 HK) from the current controlling shareholder.
With a 68.5% surge in share price YTD, it is now trading on 31.8x FY27F PER and 9.2x P/B. A lot of 'dream' or 'hope' value has already been discounted. 
It is more expensive than Futu Holdings Ltd (FUTU US) and UP Fintech (TIGR US), so taking some money off the table is sensible.
