WOOD Flash – Halyk Savings Bank: notes from the deep-dive session

On 26 October, Halyk held a deep-dive session on its superapp, ecosystem offerings and data factory. This flash note includes our notes and takeaways from that meeting. This was the first time we have seen Halyk’s consumer and digital offerings in action. Halyk seems to have products with modern and good UX and UI, as well as a comprehensive offering. Although the full extent and details of potential new consumer loan regulations are unknown, management also mentioned that it would not expect to be affected based on the news so far. We have a BUY rating on Halyk, with a PT of USD 17.6/share. The bank is trading at 2.4x P/E and 0.7x P/TBV for 2023E, on our estimates.
