The issue size is USD1bn on an order book of over USD2bn. SNB is Saudi Arabia's largest banking group by total assets, with $c27\%$ market share as of Sep'25. It operates in nine countries and has a diversified franchise spanning across wholesale and retail banking, treasury, asset management and brokerage. We view the new SNBAB 6.15 Perp (first coupon reset in Jul'31) is fairly priced, in view of the valuation of its SNBAB 6.2 Perp (first coupon rest in Dec'31) trading at YTC of $6.2\%$ as well as its peer RJHIAB 6.15 Perp (first coupon reset in Jan'32) is trading at YTC of $6.1\%$ . RJHIAB 6.15 Perp was issued by Al Rajhi Bank, Saudi Arabia's second largest bank by total assets with $c24\%$ market shares as of Sep'25. Within Middle East AT1, we maintain buy on Saudi Arabia's BSFR 6.375 Perp and UAE's EBIUH 4.25 Perp. At 100.9, BSFR 6.375 Perp (first coupon reset in May'31) is trading broadly the same as the new SNBAB 6.15 Perp and benefits from a coupon reset occurring two months earlier.

The coupon will be reset to 5yrUST+initial spread of $2.343\%$ on 22 Jul'31 and every fifth anniversary thereafter. Coupon payment is optional, non-cumulative and subject to mandatory cancellation upon: (i) insufficient distributable profits; (ii) breach of applicable regulatory capital requirements; (iii) financial regulator's requirement; or (iv) the solvency condition. The perp also includes a dividend stopper. In 9M25, SNB generated ROTA of $2.2\%$ and ROTE of $17.5\%$ , increased from $2.0\%$ and $16.3\%$ in 9M24, respectively, driven by higher fee and commission income. The cost to income ratio was also lower at $25.2\%$ under disciplined cost management, compared to $28.4\%$ in 9M24. Moreover, SNB has robust capital adequacy. CET1 ratio was $17.6\%$ and Tier 1 ratio was $19.5\%$ as of Sep'25, higher than the regulatory requirement of $9.2\%$ and $10.7\%$ , respectively. Liquidity metrics were solid, with NSFR at $112\%$ and LCR of $263\%$ as of Sep'25. Moreover, SNB asset quality improved, its NPL ratio dropped to $0.8\%$ as of Sep'25 from $1.2\%$ as of Dec'24. By sector, c28% of NPL were from commerce sector, c25% from building & construction, c24% from consumer and c9% from manufacturing. # > China Economy: Signal of moderate monetary easing China's outstanding social financing growth exhibited a notable deceleration toward the end of 2025. This trend, coupled with a sharp slowdown in M1 supply growth, underscores a cooling in economic activity and private sector confidence. There is a persistent economic imbalance between robust supply and weak demand as the corporate sector remains the primary engine of credit expansion and the household sector continues to prioritize deleveraging over new borrowings. In response, the People's Bank of China (PBOC) has signaled a shift toward a more accommodative stance and additional property stimulus for 2026, characterized by cuts in structural lending facilities and minimum down payment ratio for commercial property loans. Looking ahead, the central bank has indicated additional room for interest rate and RRR cuts, with expectations of a 50bps RRR cut and two 10bps LPR reductions this year. Regarding exchange rate policy, the central bank remains committed to market-driven flexibility and RMB resilience. The USD/RMB is projected to decline to 6.93 at end-1H26 before rising to 6.97 by year-end. Credit and M1 growth slowed down as economic activities weakened. Outstanding social financing growth continued to decline from $8.7\%$ at end-3Q25 to $8.5\%$ at end-November and $8.3\%$ at end-December, indicating a slowdown of broad credit growth. Outstanding government bond financing growth moderated from $18.8\%$ at end-November to $17.1\%$ at end-December as the fiscal expansion momentum softened. Outstanding RMB loan growth remained unchanged at $6.4\%$ at the year end, but new RMB loan financing dropped $8.1\%$ in December with the loan funding to business sector up $118.4\%$ and that to household sector remaining negative. New medium- and long-term loans to households dropped $96.7\%$ YoY, as housing sales continued to slump. Despite a YoY increase of bond and loan financing in the corporate sector, broad economic activity and private confidence weakened as M1 supply growth decelerated from $7.2\%$ at end-3Q25 to $4.9\%$ at end-November and $3.8\%$ at end-December. $80\%$ of M1 was demand deposits, which were oriented to economic transactions. Sector divergence showed economic imbalance. The loan data revealed a stark economic imbalance with robust supply and weak demand. The corporate sector remained the primary engine of credit growth, partially supported by the low-cost special loans targeting specific sectors. In sharp contrast, the household sector remained in the deleveraging trap with more debt repayments than new borrowings. The household sector's reluctance to borrow is partially due to the balance-sheet effect following the property market slump. With housing prices down over $35\%$ in major cities since 3Q21, the erosion of household wealth and confidence has severely dampened consumer spending and deflationary momentum. Unlike the US subprime or Eurozone sovereign debt crises, Chinese households instead of banks bear the primary burden of asset devaluation as the mortgage non-performing loan (NPL) ratios remain low. China's system features high down payment requirements and strong lender protections. Legal constraints on personal bankruptcy and deep cultural attachment to homeownership, rooted in traditional values of family security and social status, deter borrowers from defaulting even in distress. Consequently, Chinese households absorb most of the balance-sheet impacts of property market slump, contributing to weakened confidence and spending power. After decades of viewing real estate as a "sure bet," the current price correction has triggered a psychological pivot toward financial conservatism. Households are now prioritizing "balance-sheet repair" over consumption, a behavior that presents a significant challenge to the government's goal of a consumption-led recovery. Central bank signaled moderate easing ahead. After the credit data release, PBOC officials held a press conference yesterday to outline the monetary policy direction this year. First, the PBOC announced immediate rate cuts by 25bps to structural re-lending facilities and massive supply expansion of these facilities, indicating stronger policy support to targeted sectors. These structural re-lending facilities with lower rates than general re-lending facilities mainly aim at incentivizing banks to expand credit supply to private enterprises, tech companies, green development, agriculture, elderly care and other targeted sectors. By focusing on those specific sectors, the central bank tries to influence the allocation of credit supply to make it in line with top leaders' target of high-quality development and common prosperity. We believe the integration of these structural monetary policy tools with fiscal policy such as interest subsidies and credit guarantees creates a powerful policy multiplier to support China's technology innovation and green development. Second, the PBOC announced lowering the minimum downpayment ratio for commercial property loans from $50\%$ to $30\%$ . This is aimed at clearing the inventory of office and commercial property, signaling the property sector as one focus of the new round of policy stimulus. Third, a PBOC official said there is additional room to cut interest rates and RRR, indicating continued monetary policy easing in 2026. We expect the central bank to cut LPRs by 10bps and RRR by 50bps in 1Q26 and reduce LPRs by an additional 10bps in 3Q26. The liquidity condition will remain accommodative with mild declines in money market rates. Fourth, the PBOC implied exchange rate policy for 2026 remains anchored in a commitment to market-driven flexibility and strategic stability. A key takeaway from the press conference is the officials' confidence in the RMB's resilience. The policy priority is to enhance the FX market depth and resilience and to promote the use of RMB in trade settlement. We expect USD/RMB to decline to 6.93 at end-1H26 before rising to 6.97 at end-2026.
