Another View on United Overseas Bank’s Valuation The analyst narrative points to United Overseas Bank trading at a modest discount to a fair value of SGD43.43. On earnings multiples though, the picture is tighter. UOB trades on a P/E of 14.7x, slightly higher than peer averages of 14.2x and well above the Asian banks average of 10.6x. The fair ratio for United Overseas Bank is 17.4x, which implies the P/E could still move higher if the market leans closer to that level. That gap cuts both ways as it offers room for optimism but also leaves less cushion if growth or profitability assumptions are challenged. Which signal carries more weight for you right now?
