🎁SG Banks Well Performed in Q422: DBS, UOB & OCBC Highlights!

Today, we hear more from Beansprout, a MAS-licensed investment advisory platform offering expert insights on Singapore stocks, REITs, ETFs and bonds. Gerald Wong, founder and CEO, shares his thoughts on market developments.

Q: The results of Singapore banks are always closely watched. What are some of the key takeaways from the results? Share your insights on banks services and stocks potential to win Tiger coins. [Miser]

From Gerald, founder and CEO of Beansprout:

SG Local banks reported stellar results for 4Q22, ending the year with strong performance. All three declared higher dividends, as their interest income grew solidly on the back of interest rate hikes.

Data from trading viewData from trading view

Net interest income drove higher profits. The strong earnings for 4Q22 was driven by an increase in net interest income. Net interest margin (NIM) rose to record levels, as lending rates rose at a faster rate than funding costs.

Non-interest income, however, was negatively impacted by rising rates. All three banks reported lower non-interest income. Higher rates dulled the appeal of stocks and bonds. This hurt fee income from wealth management and investment banking, as well as trading profits.

Asset quality remains healthy. Despite concerns about slowing economic growth, the asset quality of the banks remains healthy. Non-performing loans (NPL) as % of total loans improved for $DBS GROUP HOLDINGS LTD(D05.SI)$ and $OVERSEA-CHINESE BANKING CORP(O39.SI)$ in 4Q22. $UNITED OVERSEAS BANK LIMITED(U11.SI)$ ‘s NPL rose marginally due to the integration of its newly acquired $Citigroup(C)$ credit card business in November.

Dividends were raised. With improvements in profitability and returns, all three banks raised their dividends in FY22. Based on their share prices as of 28 February 2023, Singapore banks offer a dividend yield of between 4.5% to 5.9%.

    🌟🌟🌟I like using UOB One Account as I can earn up to 7.8% interest per annum through my credit card spend and GIRO transactions and park my spare cash into UOB Stash account. 

     However my favourite bank stock is DBS which has reported record earnings for FY 2022.    DBS' 4th quarter net profit reached a record SGD 2.34 billion and has rock solid balance sheet with CET1 ratio at 14.6%.  Best of all DBS has rewarded me with great dividends to. With the special dividends of 50 cents per share plus 42 cents final dividend, DBS paid SGD 2 per share for FY2022, a juicy dividend yield of 5.8%.

    I believe that DBS will continue to grow exponentially in the future and is resilient through good times and bad times.  

    Go Long Go Strong Go DBS!

    I have bank accounts in all the banking trio, and hold shares in all of them. i like $DBS GROUP HOLDINGS LTD(D05.SI)$ the most for its growth potental, while I love the highest dividend yield offered by $OVERSEA-CHINESE BANKING CORP(O39.SI)$. Last but not the least, $UNITED OVERSEAS BANK LIMITED(U11.SI)$ offers a good balance between growth and income compared with its two larger peers.

    i used all 3 banks [serious] . In term of digital,  DBS is better. But in term of Interest or charges, DBS is the worst among all. For branch services , ocbc best. However all banks have the same issue at branches , Super slow. [Speechless] [Speechless] [Speechless]

    On investment , I only know I wont invest in DBS [What] [lovely] . Why u ask ? [Doubt]
    Because it is becoming like Little India 🇮🇳  Dont believe? go to their website lor [LOL] Go to their backend office , also same same . Anyway had been like this for a long time. [Thinking] [NosePick] (Better dont call yourself National Bank [Sweats] )

    Bonus Tips [love you]
    BTW , recently i just got to know if you credit ur salary into UOB with One Account,  you can get 7% INT for first 100k with $500 min spend. (just buy a saving insurance with monthly at 500. limit ur payment period at 3 or 5 years. )

    Disclaimer: as at time of post, i dont own any of the 3 banks shares. Expensive and I no money [Facepalm]

    第一季度:大华银行POSB,第二季度:星展银行&华侨银行。两者都有满足职业需求的优势。中小型企业建设、作为先锋的更好的数字银行体验,以及针对其目标受众的先锋服务(例如,OCBC率先拥有360账户,根据生活方式赚取分层利息)。


    投资:星展银行及华侨银行虽然因各自的优势不同而采取不同的策略。趋势。[胜利]


    希望不要破坏华侨银行,破坏它让投资者喜欢它的“特征”。[舌]

    I'm using the OCBC service, personally thinking OCBC still has more room to improve. Long term will see the results, maybe wait another 2-3 y then will grow about 30%. Well see 2023 performance [Miser]

    I have accounts with DNS and OCBC, with credit card from DBS and UOB. So I am a customer of all 3 banks!

    For investments, I am most positive on DBS. It has the largest banking footprints across its key markets, namely, Singapore, Hong Kong, India, Taiwan, China and Indonesia. All strong growth markets.

      All 3 local banks are the safest in the world with solid dividends. But i prefer uob & Ocbc as dbs is too pricey, price to book ratio.

      Absolutely 💯 . I use  $DBS Group Holdings Ltd.(DBSDY)$ and  $OVERSEA-CHINESE BANKING CORP(O39.SI)$  for personal banking &  $UOB UNITED ASIA (SGDHDG) ACC(SG9999001051.SGD)$ for business. Will continue to buy on dips as opposed to DCA.

    [Miser] [Miser] [Miser] I am currently using DBS savings account. However, DBS doesn't have a favourable interest rate and charges as compared to UOB and OCBC. Nevertheless, DBS is more advanced in its system.

    Investment wise, I will tend to choose DBS over the other two giants for its stable growth and profitability.

    I guess all are quite good, but since I have to choose one, my pick would be DBS, as simple as that because my giro in Tiger already in DBS bank 😅.

    $DBS GROUP HOLDINGS LTD(D05.SI)$ $OVERSEA-CHINESE BANKING CORP(O39.SI)$ $UNITED OVERSEAS BANK LIMITED(U11.SI)$ these are all great banks. established, stable, well managed. if I were to choose one of them I would go with DBS. since young I have  an account with them and "we" kinda "grew up" together [Grin]. through thick and thin, we survived [ShakeHands]. so yeah, it's a bank I would invest if I were to only have one choice @Vun Vun @Kaz tttttt @FQX @Lady芳芳 @BMP what about you guys [smile] [smile] [smile]

    agree that the 3 local banks are long term buys. interest generation wise, Standatd Chartered Bank Esaver account gives huge bonus interest each month, better than the 3 local banks' savings accounts
