Sequence • Introduction • Sector Analysis • Trends in Pakistani Banking Sector • Analyzing a Bank – Concepts & Application • Building financial model of a bank • Valuation
Financial Modeling Valuation Recommendation Equity analysis is essentially a 5-part process ANALYST REPORT Company Analysis Macro/Sector Analysis
Single most important variable in valuation? • Profitability! • cash flows, dividends, etc driven from profitability
Profitability is essentially a function of… • Volume • Quantity sold for an industrial enterprise • Asset size in case of a banking company • Profit Margins • Spreads or Net Interest Margin in case of banking company
Bank’s P&L is closely tied with its Bal. Sheet • Size (Volume) is related to: • Earning Assets = Advance, Investments, FI Lending, etc. • Interest Bearing Liabilities = Deposits, Borrowing, etc. • Net Interest Margin (NIM) is a function of: • Earning Asset Mix, Deposit Mix, Interest Rates, etc. • Other factors influencing profitability • Non-Interest Income (Fee income, Dividends, etc.) • Non-Performing Loans (NPLs) • Operating Efficiencies (i.e., Admin Cost)
Factors affecting a bank’s balance sheet/P&L • Sector Related • Need for sector analysis! • Extends beyond cross-sectional and time-series analysis • Macro factors exert major influence • Bank Specific • Understanding bank’s strategy and competitive strengths and how they translate into profitability.
Develop sector outlook • Identify key attributes of relatively superior banking strategy. Sector Analysis • Macro-Economy • Regulatory Regime • Capital Market Development • Global and Regional Trends • Cross-sectional & Time Series Comparisons (Ratio Analysis)
Macro-Economic Factors • Being an integral part of an economic system, the banking sector is more sensitive (than most other sector) to changes in macro-economic factors such as: • Growth & Inflation • Monetary Policy • Fiscal Policy • External Account • Understanding the mechanics of linkages between macroeconomic factors and the banking sector is therefore extremely important.

Bank loans out Rs.800 • Borrower draws down Rs.500 and leaves the remaining Rs.300 in bank account.
Impact of $1.0 million “private” FX inflow Step-1: $1.0 million remittance received through Bank. Step-2: Bank sells US$ to SBP, which credits Rs.60 million to the Bank’s account with SBP SBP’s NFA increases by $1.0 million. Step-3: Bank in turn credits the account of recipient of remittance by Rs.60 million.
Examples: Impact on Banking Sector • ECONOMIC GROWTH • Higher GDP Growth Higher M2 Growth Faster expansion in banks’ balance sheets • EXTERNAL ACCOUNT • Large “private” FX inflows More PKR Liquidity Higher deposit growth • MONETARY POLICY • Tightening Slower credit demand Slower M2 growth Slower growth in banks’ balance sheets. ↑ SPREADS • FISCAL DEFICIT • Higher monetization More Liquidity Higher deposit growth
Regulatory Factors & Capital Market • MAJOR REGULATORY CHANGES • Min Capital of PKR6.0 billion by Dec 2009 Consolidation • Implementation of Basel-II from 2008 investment in internal control systems, credit rating culture, increased risk/exposure consciousness, etc. • CAPITAL MARKET DEVELOPMENT • Banking Sector and Capital Markets are, in many cases, alternative channels of intermediation: Mutual Funds and Bond Market slower intermediation through banking channel. • NSS reforms have so far helped banking sector more than developing the capital market.

Quantitative Analysis • FINANCIAL SOUNDNESS • Profitability • Solvency • GROWTH and FUNDING MIX • Deposits • Borrowings • Loans • Investments • RISK ASSESSMENT • Credit Risk • Market Risk • Liquidity Risk
Risk Assessment • CREDIT RISK • Concentration in fewer sectors. • How much of banks’ lending is to pro-cyclical sectors. • LIQUIDITY RISK • GAP Analysis: Difference between a bank’s liabilities and assets as both mature over time. • MARKET RISK • Exposure to equities, derivatives and bonds.
Non-Quantitative Factors • Ownership • Market Positioning & Strategy • Product Mix & Delivery Channels • Human Resource Quality • Internal Control Systems • IT Platform (Core Banking Solution, ATM Network, On-line networks, Internet banking, etc. ) • Investor Relations

Key Assumptions – Bank Specific • Balance Sheet – Develop forecasts for: • Deposit Growth • Deposit Mix • Borrowing • Advances Growth • Non-Performing Loans (NPLs) • Investment Portfolio Mix • Cash/FI lending • Net Interest Margin (NIM) – Forecast based on: • Interest Yield = f (interest rates, portfolio mix) • Cost of Funds = f (interest rates, deposit/borrowing mix)
Key Assumptions – Bank Specific • Non-Interest Income • Fee income = f (trade, guarantees, advisory, etc) • FX income = f (exchange rate, trade, remittances) • Dividend/Capital Gains = f (equity portfolio) • NPL provisioning • NPL charge = f (credit risk) • Administrative Cost • Taxation Rate (35%)
