Fundamental strategic thinking • A bank is a ‘leveraged’ play on the underlying economy, therefore the key challenge is to: • Select the better performing economies • Attract the most valuable clients in our chosen economies • Aims to produce a blend of earnings from: • Developed mature-growth economies • Developing higher-growth economies (considered on a risk-adjusted basis) • Leveraging internationality provides revenue generating and cost saving opportunities • Leveraging through our local presence the increasing trade and other links between developed and developing economies
Conclusion • Global financials are facing tougher cycle • Strong will get stronger regionally • Bought growth and organic growth • Taiwan banking offer growth opportunities through M&A • Investment options:three pillars
