Sparebanken Vest (Buy, TP: NOK65.00) - Benefiting from low-risk exposure

We believe the Q1 report illustrates SVEG’s robust balance sheet, and we expect manageable loan-loss provisions during the coming downturn. The bank provided upbeat 2020 volume growth guidance, fuelled by Bulder Bank, and indicated a neutral overall earnings impact from recent interest rate reductions. We reiterate our BUY and have raised our target price to NOK65 (60).
