  • We expect Singapore banks DBS. OCBC and UOB to report a modest set of earnings in 1Q23F. We think that share price movement will likely be driven by any changes in management outlook on credit demand, risk appetite and asset quality, as investors pivot away from focusing on margin expansion.

  • Strong wealth inflows into Singapore amid global volatility (given its status as a financial safe haven) provide dry powder for deployment into wealth management products when risk sentiment improves.

  • Although DBS likely benefited from strong wealth inflows given acute banking sector volatility over 1Q23F, though wealth management income could stay soft as negative risk sentiment persists.
  • Steady asset quality will likely translate into low credit costs (we expect ~13bp in 1Q23F). DBS’s US and European exposures are small and there are no impairments needed for its debt investment portfolio.
  • We think OCBC (SGX:O39) could post ~S$1.55bn (+19% q-o-q, +14% y-o-y) net profit for 1Q23F.
