Greater China Insurance: Weighing the risks and returns.
China regulators have introduced several measures, allowing insurers to further raise their equity investment allocations. We estimate that insurers could reallocate Rmb900b to equities, supported by these regulatory tailwinds. However, insurers are likely to remain cautious due to earnings volatility and solvency headwinds from a declining long-term yield. Maintain MARKET WEIGHT. Top picks: Prudential and PICC P&C.

Greater China Strategy Alpha Picks: June Conviction Calls
The HSI and MSCI China index rebounded 5.3% mom and 3.5% mom respectively in May, after China and the US agreed on a 90-day tariff truce. Nonetheless, geopolitical uncertainties and tariff war risks remain. Hence, we continue to favour domestic policy beneficiaries and defensive sectors that have been gaining traction in recent weeks. New additions to our BUY list are Prudential and Sino Biopharm, and we take profit on SHKP and Trip.com.

Prudential’s results were broadly within our expectations with NBP growing at 11% yoy. OPAT per share and DPS were ahead of consensus estimates.

Prudential (2378 HK): Solid NBP growth on improved sales and margins a...
Prudential reported an 11% yoy growth in NBP, underpinned by an improved sales momentum across China, Hong Kong and Indonesia. NBP margin also edged up by 1.8ppt yoy, thanks to a favourable product mix and channel mix shift. Management also guided 9-13% NBP growth in 2024, implying a better growth outlook in 4Q24. We believe this strong set of results could help to restore market confidence in its growth momentum after a sluggish 1H24. Maintain BUY. Target price: HK$126.00.

Prudential delivered mixed 1H24 results. NBP was broadly in line with a 1% yoy growth on a CER basis but sales volume growth (+6% yoy) was behind market expectation. Management saw sales momentum picking up in June which has continued into 2H24. Prudential will convert into TEV reporting starting 1Q25 and we expect that market will welcome this move as it will enhance Prudential's comparability with its peers. Maintain BUY.

Prudential’s economic interest in PAMB, its life insurance business in Malaysia, has been reduced to 51% after the highest court ruled against its consolidation plan. As such, the insurer will reflect the 49% NCI in its upcoming 1H24 results, affecting >5% and >4% of shareholder equity and EEV respectively. Thus, we have revised our EEV estimates accordingly and cut our target price to HK$126.00. Maintain BUY. Management expects no impact on its Malaysia operations and existing shareholder retur...

Non-manufacturing PMI fell to 50.2% (-0.3ppt mom), marking the weakest reading in the past eight months. This was mainly driven by a 1.1ppt decline in construction PMI.
