What I am Known For

  • Deep understanding on the banking sector, in both a domestic and global context.
  • Strong industry access, built up over the more than 20 years covering the sector.
  • In depth focus on the drivers of sector earnings, coupling a top-down approach to volumes and asset quality, with a bottom-up approach to net interest margins, earnings and capital requirements.

How I am Different

  • More positively disposed to the sector since initiation given relative earnings trends, despite elevated valuations.
  • Elevated dividend risk given banks’ now reaching their capital floors.
  • Constrained capital positions to result in a more benign competitive environment.

Corporate & Strategic Access
