Garanti Bank: 2017E targets in line with peers

Garanti announced its 2017E targets yesterday (11 January), which were broadly in line with those of its peers. Our train of thought on the targets follows the same pattern: we would be cautious about the flat NIM budget as the ROE profile may get bumpy on the back of high sensitivity to the margin at the bottom-line level. Adjusted for the shipping files that came in as one-offs in 2016, we understand that the bank is also targeting a flat yoy specific COR. This may be possible, but this target should incorporate more downside risk than upside, in our view. We stick to our HOLD rating for the bank, with a TRY 8.55/share PT. Garanti trades at 6.7x P/E and 0.8x P/TBV for 2017E, on our current estimates.
