(Kuala Lumpur News, 3rd) The overall performance of the banking industry in the second quarter of 2024 is good. Analysts expect that the net interest margin will stabilize in the future, and the prospects for profit growth are still bright, maintaining a "positive" rating.
In the latest report of Maybank Investment Banking Research, it is observed that in the first half of this year, the core net profit of the banking industry in our country increased by 9% year-on-year, mainly due to the continuous growth of operating profit by 7% and stable credit costs.
Therefore, analysts maintain a growth forecast of 7.6% for full-year operating profit in 2024.
This is mainly based on the forecast of domestic loan growth of 5.5%, an average net interest margin of 2.07%, a non-interest income ratio of 25.1%, and a cost-to-income ratio (CIR) of 44.7%.
Considering the support of lower crediting costs, that is 22 basis points, lower than the 23 basis points in 2023, we have raised our core net profit growth expectation from 6.8% to 7.8%, while the average return on equity (ROE) of the banking industry is expected to be 10.4%.
Question: Can maintain low inflation this year.
Analysts pointed out that the overall inflation rate last year was 2.5%. The bank's economists have already lowered their inflation forecast for 2024 from the previous 3% to 2%, and they expect inflation for 2025 to be in the range of 2.5% to 3%, due to the expected implementation of targeted fuel subsidies next year.
Although the current deposit interest rate has a positive return, given the prospect of rising inflation next year, it means that the central bank is unlikely to cut interest rates in the short term...

Another major international investment bank is optimistic about the prospects of China's stock market. Japan's Nomura Securities believes that investors should reduce their holdings of Chinese stocks and invest in the Malaysian and Indonesian stock markets instead.
According to a recent report by analysts at Nomura Securities, including Chetansett and others, the Malaysian and Indonesian stock markets are expected to benefit from the accelerated trend of US interest rate cuts, which is one of the reasons why the two countries' stock market ratings were upgraded from “neutral” to “increase in holdings.”
Nomura Securities also downgraded the MSCI China Index (MSCI China) rating from “increase in holdings” to “neutral.”
“Now is the time to enter the ASEAN stock market in a big way. In a scenario where the Federal Reserve is about to cut interest rates and investors are rekindling buying and selling in emerging markets, investing in the Indonesian stock market is probably the best bet.”
Last week, Federal Reserve Chairman Powell issued a clear signal to the outside world that interest rates will be cut starting in September.
Bloomberg pointed out that before Nomura Securities upgraded the Malaysian and Indonesian stock market ratings, foreign interest in the two countries' stock markets had already risen, and foreign capital inflows were recorded for two consecutive months.
“Investors have reason to take Nomura Securities reviews seriously. In December of last year, they raised Taiwan's stock market, and the Taiwan Weighted Index has risen 25% this year. The MSCI Asia Pacific Index rose 9.8% during the same period.”
Prior to Nomura Securities, there were actually quite a few internationally renowned investment banks or financial media, including J.P. Morgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, and Forbes, which were optimistic about the prospects of the Malaysian market.
