Banks delivered resilient earnings in 2Q25 (DBS: +0.7% qoq, OCBC: -6.6% qoq) despite severe NIM compression. The downdraft from NIM compression should moderate in 2H25. Asset quality remains relatively stable, unruffled by uncertainties from reciprocal tariffs. Banks provide an attractive dividend yield of 5.9% for 2025. BUY OCBC (Target: S$20.15) for its low 2025F P/B of 1.26x. HOLD DBS (Target: S$52.80) for its 2025 yield of 6.9%. Maintain OVERWEIGHT.

Singapore Banking - Higher Reciprocal Tariffs Could Further Delay Rate...
Higher reciprocal tariffs, ranging from 25% for Japan to 50% for Brazil, would kick in starting 1 August, which could feed into higher inflation in the near term. A subservient next Fed chair sympathetic to Trump’s preference for low interest rates could lead to structurally higher inflation over the long term. Banks could weather volatility from the trade conflict as higher inflation could lead to delays in rate cuts. Maintain OVERWEIGHT. BUY OCBC (Target: S$19.25). HOLD DBS (Target: S$47.00).

Singapore Banking - 2Q25 Results Preview: Brace For NIM Compression
We expect NIM compression of 7bp qoq for DBS and 8bp qoq for OCBC in 2Q25 due to the synchronised steep drop in SORA and HIBOR. Fee income is expected to grow 13% yoy for DBS and 14% yoy for OCBC, driven by wealth management. We expect net profit of S$2,691m for DBS (-4% yoy, -7% qoq) and S$1,767m for OCBC (-9% yoy, -6% qoq). Easing of trade conflict and closing of more trade deals is positive for economic growth. Maintain OVERWEIGHT. BUY OCBC (Target: S$19.25). HOLD DBS (Target: S$47.00).

Banks delivered resilient earnings in 1Q25 (DBS: +15% qoq, OCBC: +12% qoq) supported by a sequential rebound in non-interest income. Banks have assessed their first-order direct impact from vulnerable sectors to be manageable at 2-3% of total loans. They have also recommitted themselves to their capital management plans announced in Feb 25. BUY OCBC (Target: S$19.30) for its focus on ASEAN. HOLD DBS (Target: S$45.45) for its 2025 yield of 6.9%.
