Galliano’s Financials Research

Galliano's Financials Research provides fundamental research in Emerging Markets financials, including FinTech, as well as financials in select Developed Markets.

The investment style applied is generally value oriented, although Growth At Reasonable Price (GARP) strategies can also be used where appropriate. 

Our investment research approach aim is often contrarian, looking to capitalise on overly sceptical or optimistic consensus views. In terms of valuation techniques, the focus is on PBV ratio to ROE, PE multiples and dividend yield, as well as the application of PEG ratios and, where appropriate, Sum of the Parts (SOTP) valuations.

<li>Exchanges continue to seek revenue streams outside of the traditional trading fees in post-trading, as well as capitalising on “big data” in financial transactions and data services</li>
<li>We identify three relative value opportunities in exchanges; MexBolsa, B3 and Deutsche Borse feature positively multiple times in our value screens and they are all diversifying revenue streams</li>
<li>Coinbase remains the exchange to avoid, in our view, despite its share price collapse; aside from negative news-flow, its revenue streams are heavily exposed to low volumes of crypto transactions</li>

Carsome (CARSOME1 SP), Malaysia's used-car eCommerce/technology unicorn, has reportedly submitted a confidential IPO filing for a dual listing on Nasdaq and Singapore Exchange.
Carsome has a great ESG story to tell, but needs to be less humble about telling it because pre-IPO ESG messaging can impact IPO valuations, especially for transportation-related deals.
The centerpiece of Carsome's ESG story should be the important (but underappreciated) role of used car markets in decarbonising road transportation, a leading source of carbon emissions.
