<Research Report>Citi: Still bullish on Chinese insurers; hikes earnings forecasts & TPs

Citigroup remained bullish on Chinese insurers since the industry is in upcycle, with monetary easing, A-share rally and supportive policies.

Sector fundamentals have largely exceeded the historical averages with steady improvement.

Despite the vigorous uptrend over the past six months, the sector valuation was approximately 20% below historical average (1.7x to 1.9x P/EV).

With meaningful valuation upside, the research house revised up the earnings, EV, NBV estimates and target prices.

Top picks were PING AN (02318.HK) and CPIC (02601.HK), with a preference over CHINA LIFE (02628.HK) and NCI (01336.HK).

The target price of CHINA TAIPING (00966.HK), PICC GROUP (01339.HK) and PICC P&C (02328.HK) increased from $28, $4.3 and $16.6 to $32, $5.8 and $19 respectively, all of which were rated at Neutral.

CHINA LIFE, CPIC, NCI and PING AN were rated at Buy, with a target price of $46, $52, $60 and $142 respectively.
