Itrader.. its either u buy and keep for 5 yrs or continue to wait. 2008 the price only RM7.00. Imagine how much downside if US starts to increase interest rate. MALAYSIA another Russia.

Just my personal opinion: In every industry, there are good times & bad times. PBB had performed significantly since 2007/ 2008 to 2014, in which the share price had rose from ~RM7 till ~RM22 (max price). In other words, within 7 years, the share price has tripled. This is due to public confidence in the company due to it's strong fundamentals. This is how a good company performs during good times. Now, bad times are coming/ has arrived. With its strong fundamentals (still making profit every year, still consistently giving out dividend), shall we not take this opportunity to accumulate and wait for it multiply its value during goods times?

From the recent annual report, Public Bank is still making profit, showing better results & achieving greater heights year by year. This shows that PBB is a fundamentally strong company. As an investor/ long term investor, I will hold on to such companies until they show signs of weakening (poor management, loss making year to year, etc...)

The sector has held up despite worries about currency, liquidity and growth. The financial stability report (link) concluded that liquidity tightness was due to LCR, household risks have abated, and stress tests affirm resilience. Banks are seeing limited NPL deterioration, and the easing of HQLA requirements has taken the edge off deposit competition. While these partly address systemic risks, positive revision catalysts are still missing, in our view. Accordingly, we recommend trimming positions on recent strength.

KUALA LUMPUR: Public Bank Bhd posted a strong financial performance in the second quarter ended June 30, 2015 with earnings up 13.3% to RM1.196bil from RM1.055bil a year ago.

“The improved earnings was mainly due to higher net interest income, higher net fee and commission income and higher investment income partially offset by higher other operating expenses,” it said on Thursday.

Revenue increased by 16.7% to RM4.737bil from RM4.059bil. Earnings per share were 30.99 sen compared with 30.16 sen. It rewarded shareholders with a dividend of 24 sen a share, slightly higher than the 23 sen a year ago.
Commenting on the financial performance, Public Bank said retail operations’ pre-tax profit increased by RM32.4mil (4.0%) to RM846.7mil, mainly due to higher net interest income and higher fee income, partially offset by higher other operating expenses.

As for the hire purchase, Public Bank said pre-tax profit fell by RM21.1mil (-18.8%) to RM91.4mil, mainly due to lower net interest income resulting from declining net interest margin, partially offset by lower loan impairment allowances.

The banking group said corporate lending’s pre-tax profit increased by RM19.2mil (22.3%) to RM104.9mil, mainly due to higher net interest income and higher fee income.

Its treasury and capital market operations reported a 13.7% increase in pre-tax profit to RM113.2mil, mainly due to higher interest margin earned on treasury gapping activities.

The investment banking, however, saw pre-tax profit fall by RM6.4mil (-28.4%) to RM16.2mil, mainly due to lower investment income, lower corporate advisory fee income as well as lower brokerage income from stockbroking activities.

However, its fund management business recorded a 13.1% increase in pre-tax profit to RM140.3mil, due to higher management fee earned on higher average net asset value of funds under management.

Its overseas operations reported an increase in pre-tax profit by RM36.8mil (34.3%) was mainly due to higher net interest income, higher other operating income partially offset by higher loan impairment allowances and higher other operating expenses.

In the first half, its earnings rose 14.2% to RM2.368bil from RM2.073bil in the previous corresponding period. Revenue rose 16.7% to RM9.338bil from RM8bil.

Founder and chairman of Public Bank, Tan Sri Teh Hong Piow described the first half financial results as “commendable”.

Pre-tax profit grew by 12.1% to RM3.02bil during the same period. The profit growth during the period was mainly attributed to the healthy growth in loans and deposits, and stable asset quality.

“Gains arising from foreign exchange fluctuation in respect of the group’s foreign operations have also partially contributed to the profit growth for the period, ” he said.

Teh pointed out the operating environment in the first half of 2015 has become more challenging with increasing concerns in growth sentiment, following the uncertainties in the global economic developments as well as domestic factors.

“Despite facing the challenging environment, the Public Bank group has remained steadfast and continued to perform well in the first half of 2015, recording a healthy loan growth of 11.2% on an annualised basis to RM258.8bil as at the end of June 2015.

“In tandem with the group’s healthy loan growth, its customer deposits recorded an annualised growth of 13.6% to RM295.3bil as at the end of June 2015. As a result, the group maintained a stable and healthy loan-to-deposit ratio of 87.0% as at June 30, 2015,” he said.

Actually August pay out improved by 1cent compared to last year. Generally speaking, PBB dividend yield is not the highest among all Blue Chip stocks, but payout every year has been very steady, such that you can expect ~50 cents per year, in March & August.

Nine banks agree to pay US$2 billion to settle forex rigging suit
Publish date: Fri, 14 Aug 2015, 08:25 PM
NEW YORK: Nine major banks accused of foreign-exchange rigging have agreed to pay more than US$2 billion to investors in settlements, a law firm involved in the process said Thursday.

Plaintiffs have "reached settlements totalling more than US$2 billion with Bank of America, Barclays, BNP Paribas, Citi, Goldman Sachs, HSBC, JPMorgan, RBS and UBS," legal firm Hausfeld said in a statement published after a hearing in New York.

Hausfeld, which represented investors, gave no indication how the sum would be divided between the banks and said that the agreements were preliminary and must still be approved by US District Judge Lorna Schofield.

In June, sources close to the situation reported that Barclays would pay US$375 million, HSBC US$285 million, BNP Paribas nearly US$100 million and Goldman Sachs about US$130 million. But they also specified that the amounts were subject to change.

None of the banks responded immediately when contacted by AFP.

Some of the banks in Thursday's announcement had already agreed to specific sums.

US banking giant JPMorgan Chase agreed to pay US$99.5 million in January, followed by Bank of America at US$180 million, Citigroup at US$394 million and Swiss UBS at US$135 million.

"In addition to the billions of dollars in compensation, these settling banks have agreed to cooperate with investors in their continuing litigation" against other institutions, Hausfeld said.

Thursday's agreements are distinct from proceedings led by US and British regulators, which in May ordered US$6 billion in fines on six major banks - Barclays, JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup, Royal Bank of Scotland, UBS and Bank of America - for rigging foreign exchange market and Libor interest rates.

Barclays, JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup and the Royal Bank of Scotland all pleaded guilty to US Justice Department charges of conspiring to manipulate the massive currency market.

"While the recoveries here are tremendous, they are just the beginning," said Hausfeld chairman Michael Hausfeld.

"Investors around the world should take note of the significant recoveries secured in the United States and recognize that these settlements cover a fraction of the world's largest financial market," he said.

The firm also noted that it was considering "concerted action" in London. -- AFP
