We do not like OCBC because:

1) GEH's accounting earnings will likely stay depressed as rates rise,

2) there is no semblance of broad-based fee growth to cushion the softer WM earnings in this climate, and

3) OCBC's credit costs will rise if Asian asset quality deteriorates.

Our GGM-based target price of S$10.09 (based on 1.27x CY13 P/BV) remains unchanged. Maintain Underperform, with the de-rating catalysts of rising interest rates, poor investment appetite from private banking clients and eventually, rising credit costs. OCBC remains our least preferred Singaporean bank.
