The macro backdrop entering 2026E remains broadly supportive for high-dividend strategies across Emerging Europe and the frontier markets, but the opportunity set has clearly narrowed. After a year of sharp repricing across the WOOD universe, the high dividend conditions of 2024-25 have largely disappeared, as a result of many sectors rerating materially. As a result, high-dividend exposure is no longer a broad regional trade: the most compelling opportunities are now concentrated. However, the ...

We think that the robust outlook for Polish economic growth should offset mid-term uncertainty on fiscal policy and political risk. We have made a slight upward revision to our forecasts for pre-tax profit (by 1% to 4%) but lowered our EPS forecasts by 21% for 2026e and 4% for 2027e. After factoring in the full impact of the new tax bill, we have adjusted our target prices but remain cautiously positive on Polish banks. We favour mBank (upgrade to Outperform) for its upbeat long-term outlook and...
PZU continues to execute well on its 2025-2027 strategic targets, with improving non-life profitability and expanding life and health business segments. Positive trends should drive the EPS growth of 5.7% CAGR, just below the AT&CEE average. The stock offers the highest DY in our sector coverage (8%+) and a superior ROE within the AT&CEE peer group. Our valuation analysis indicates 19% upside from current levels and triggers an upgrade of our rating to Outperform.
