Remain Overweight on Banks
We continue to prefer banks over non financials in this Key Ideas reshuffle. Banks we cover are trading near historical low multiples.
Asset quality issues are unlikely to drastically hurt P&Ls, in our view, thanks to ongoing restructuring. Mounting CPI linker gains should offset core spread erosion and increased provisioning backed by adjustments in macro assumptions for 2H18E. We expect banks to be able to roll over around 70% of their syndicated loans in the remainder of this year. This relatively low rollover rate is unlikely to result to any material liquidity glitch, given reduced funding needs due to a lack of loan demand. While the details are yet to be carved out, a well-structured recapitalisation programme could prompt renewed investor interest in TR banks.
On top of our existing bank preferences, Akbank and Garanti, we now include Vakifbank, to elevate Banks to 4.5ppt above their BIST100 Index weighting. From non-financials we include BIM, Koza Gold and Kafein Software.
