BROKER CALL - China Life, Ping An 'buy' reiterated on strong growth -

Citigroup

-

BEIJING (XFN-ASIA) - Citigroup has reiterated its ""buy/low risk"" call on China Life Insurance with a target price of 30.50 hkd on strong premium growth.

""We estimate that China Life is still expected to deliver more than 20 pct new-business growth in 2007 as the leading life insurer continues to improve its product mix,"" Citigroup analyst Bob Leung said.

Citigroup added that the main upside risks include widening investment channels and rising interest rates allowing China Life to achieve investment yield in excess of its own pricing assumptions.

Downside risk could come from a 'hard landing' caused by a significant correction in the market, falling interest rates and increased competition from foreign players.

""If any of these factors has a greater impact than we expect, the stock could have difficulty achieving our target price,"" Leung said.

Separately, Citigroup said it maintained its ""buy/low risk"" rating on Ping An Insurance with a target price of 50.56 hkd based on the strength of its non-life, banking and securities divisions and more efficient distribution and product mix, resulting in further margin expansion.

Insurer wins approval to boost banking unit
By Zhang Fengming


PING An Insurance (Group) Co has received regulatory approval to buy Ping An Bank and merge it with Shenzhen Commercial Bank in a move that beefs up the financial services strength of China's second-biggest insurer.

The China Banking Regulatory Commission approved a plan to allow Ping An Insurance to take over the Shanghai-based Ping An Bank through its Shenzhen Commercial Bank, Ping An Insurance said in a statement to the Shanghai Stock Exchange yesterday.

Under the plan, Shenzhen Commercial Bank sought to acquire a 27 percent stake in Ping An Bank from HSBC for US$29.4 million and pick up the rest from Ping An Trust & Investment, a subsidiary of Ping An Insurance, the Shenzhen-based insurer said.

The two banking arms will be merged and renamed Shenzhen Ping An Bank Co, which will operate a network of about 50 outlets in Shenzhen, Shanghai and Fuzhou.

The merger also enables Ping An Bank, formerly a Sino-foreign joint venture, to offer unlimited retail yuan services to Chinese.

Ping An bought 89 percent of Shenzhen Commercial Bank for 4.9 billion yuan in July 2006, gaining 46 branches in the southern Chinese city and a credit-card license.

Sun Jianyi, executive deputy general manager of Ping An Insurance, said last year that the insurer's banking strategy is to create a single-brand lending business.

Ping An Insurance is gearing up to build itself into a Chinese version of rivals such as Citigroup Inc by offering a full range of financial services, including banking, insurance and assets management.

Ping An Insurance said in March that it had gained a license to run an assets management firm in Hong Kong as the group's overseas investment arm.

Ping An expects to get two-thirds of its revenue from banking, securities and asset management in the long run, compared with about 10 percent at the end of last year.
