Bulls Say

  • We believe the average BOC customer is wealthier than a customer at Big Four peers, as total assets managed by BOC’s private bank accounted for roughly 20% of the bank’s retail AUM.

  • A better NIM performance for BOC’s foreign-currency business will be a differentiator from state-owned peers and provide upside for BOC’s revenue growth.

  • Compared with peers, BOC's noninterest income has a more balanced and diversified structure, with returns on debt investment, insurance business, leasing, and precious-metal trading services.

Bears Say

  • BOC's net interest margin will face increasing downward pressure with the US Fed's interest rate cuts.

  • The state capital injection will dilute BOC's 2025 earnings and dividend per share.

  • BOC has the lowest provision level among the Big Four state-owned banks. Its deposit base also appears weaker than peers.
