We have downgraded Santander BP to HOLD (from Buy) and set our updated 12M price target (PT) at PLN 577.6/share. Our updated 12M PT includes an extra 10% discount on top of our base 12M PT, to reflect the share overhang (Banco Santander left with a 13% stake) and uncertainties over how smooth and fast the transition period might prove to be, at least from the current standpoint. In our view, the stock may trade at a discount until this is cleared up, which is unlikely to be announced until the n...
