Hong Leong Bank: Maintain Hold - Consolidating IB licences

Stock Name: HLBANK
Company Name: HONG LEONG BANK BHD
Research House: MAYBANKPrice Call: HOLDTarget Price: 11.60



Hold maintained. Hong Leong Bank's (HL Bank) move to sell MIMB Investment Bank (MIMB) to Hong Leong Capital (HLC) has been anticipated, while the decision to price the disposal at book value is fair, in our view. There is little impact to the group's financials - our Hold call and RM11.60 TP (P/BV of 1.7x, CY2012 ROE: 15.5%) are maintained.
