Thematic (Sector/Industry)

In a surprise move, the Central bank (RBI) today maintained the policy rate at the current level of 6.25% but changed the monetary policy stance to neutral. The 6 member Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) was unanimous in its decision to hold rates. The consensus was again caught on the wrong foot as majority expected a rate cut. Key rationale behind the move has been the adoption of 4% inflation target for the next financial year (ending March 2018). Even as current CPI inflation at 3.4% is well…

RBI Spoils the Bond Market Party - Prices Unlikely to Scale the Peaks Seen After Demonetization

The Government presented a fiscally sound budget and avoided any major steps to boost expenditure and mitigate the shock of demonetization. Catching the street by a little surprise, the government stuck to the Fiscal responsibility act and reduced the fiscal deficit target for the year ending March'18 to 3.2% of GDP (vs 3.5% in March'17).  Relief has been provided on the personal income side to low and middle-income earners (people with salaries in Rs 0.25m-0.5m range) where the tax has been…

Budget a Non-Event as Govt Plays Safe; Falling Yields to Shift Asset Allocation to Equities

On the eve of the budget, shares on the stock market have rallied, raising hopes of the long delayed revival in private sector capital expenditure and corporate earnings. But against the backdrop of an already slowing economy followed by the ill-conceived, disastrously executed demonetisation and marginal room for a major fiscal stimulus might this be a false dawn?

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.

Average loan growth for India's banks is now at unprecedented low levels: 0.3% as at December 2016 compared with March 2016. The figures have been coming down for some time, and suggest to that the cycle remains poor. Economists like to argue about loan growth begetting GDP growth, or GDP growth begetting loan growth; it’s probably a bit of both depending on where we are in the cycle. But the reality is that companies are not getting credit, with demand a more likely driver than supply.India…

Primary issuances are expected to remain strong in 2017 following a five-year high in funds raised in 2016 (Rs 220bn) even as Fed rate expectations weigh on the broader secondary market outlook for India. Data shows that primary issuances in previous years have bucked the trend of weak capital inflows and in our view companies evaluate sector appetite &amp; valuations levels before deciding on a public issue. For e.g. in the recent past, CY2015 hardly recorded any significant FII inflows however the…
