DBS +0.9%; HK prospects overlooked – Goldman Sachs

DBS Group Holdings (D05.SG) +0.9% at $13.82 after losing streak over last 4 sessions, which pushed price to 3-month low yesterday, with recent broad market weakness compounding underlying concerns over bank’s continued margin pressure amid soft Sibor.

“We think investors may have been overly focused on DBS’ domestic performance, that its improving Hong Kong operations have been overlooked,” says Goldman Sachs, which has Buy call with $16.90 target.

 
Cites HK’s role as offshore CNY settlement center as promising for DBS, which has opened more than 1,000 offshore CNY accounts in past 2-3 months, while pick-up in wealth management activity in HK also bodes well for lender’s fee income. Current gains not accompanied by firm volume, while pullback from early $13.94 peak suggests prices unlikely to head much higher.
