Turkish Banking Sector - Well-positioned for the long-awaited rate cut...
Turkish banking sector is poised for strong earnings rebound in 2025-2026, driven by recovering margins and an improving macroeconomic backdrop. After an estimated 18% sector-wide EPS decline in 2024, aggregate EPS is forecast to surge by 63% in 2025, followed by another 61% growth in 2026. Key drivers include a significant NIM recovery amid rate cuts, continued (though moderating) fee income growth, and normalization of trading gains. Sector ROAE is projected to rise to 27% in 2025E and 33% in...

EM Credit Spark/EM credit weekly
Markets were calmer last week as investors continue to look towards potential rate cuts in the US in September. Chair Jerome Powell at his Jackson Hole speech on Friday, 23 August, sent strong signals that the Fed is ready to cut key rates. “The time has come for policy to adjust. The direction of travel is clear". Markets now price up to 100bp in US key rates cut till the end of the year and a further 125bp of cuts next year. We view the macro backdrop as supportive for EM credit, while new sup...

Turkish bank sector update/Moving forward
We believe that Turkish banks passed the lowest point of the year in terms of net interest margins (NIM) in 2Q24. With some aspects of full-year guidance tweaked after the first-half reporting season, we now expect these banks' performance to be broadly in line with the updated FY24 targets.

Turkish Banking Sector
We anticipate that the relaxation of the regulatory framework and a return to more conventional policies will positively impact the banking sector. TL commercial loan/deposit spreads (front book), which had plummeted to as low as -18% by the end of June, have reached 6.6%, thanks to the removal of a cap on lending rates and lower deposit rates. Taking these favourable developments and strong 2Q23 results into account, we are raising our aggregate FY23 NI estimate for the sector by 10%. We now fo...

EM Credit Spark/EM credit weekly and bank sector update
While key central bank meetings passed this week without any major upset, the short-term outlook for EM is likely to be driven by global risk factors such as US banking system concerns and the debt ceiling. Spread widening could open up value given expectations for a more supportive medium-term backdrop.

EM Credit Spark/EM credit weekly update
With signs of some stabilisation in global markets, EM credit performed well this week. We see potential for the positive momentum to be sustained in the near term, with spreads still at elevated levels and EM nations largely insulated from recent banking stresses.

EM Credit Spark/EM credit weekly update: trade ideas review
Buying opportunities in EM bonds? Yes, if you believe the key rates hiking cycle is soon at its end… Next week we hope the volatility amplitude will calm down following contained stress in financial markets caused by recent troubles in the US and EU banking systems, emergency actions and further tightening of monetary conditions. EM credit spreads technically widened recently, and cautious demand emerged. In this report we review our trade ideas we made before the storm started.

Halkbank 3Q22 Results Review
Halkbank’s 3Q22 results are higher than estimates: Halkbank reported bank-only net income of TL4.30bn in 3Q22 (+67% q/q) (RoE: 24.2%), higher than both our TL4.04bn forecast and the consensus estimate (TL4.06bn), thanks to higher-than-expected NIM. As such, net income in 9M22 reached TL8.9bn (20.0% RoE), vs. TL215m in 9M21. We revised our FY22 NI estimate to TL14.0bn from TL21.5bn, factoring in the high provision expenses, and our FY23 NI estimate to TL32.5bn from TL29.5bn, mainly due to greater...
