OW new BNKEA TLAC bond on good RV vs. tier-2

Asia Pacific Credit Rsch Grp

We reiterate OW the new total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC) bond from BNKEA, Merrill Lynch (Singapore)

BNKEA 5.375 2032 nc’31. The bond trades at 123p/5.2% for G-spread/yield to call, Joyce Liang

which looks attractive vs. BNKEA 6.75 2034 nc’29 (tier-2, UW). With one notch higher Research Analyst Merrill Lynch (Singapore)

credit rating and better bond structure, BNKEA’32 trades at similar spread level vs. +65 6678 0408

BNKEA’34. However, the TLAC bonds are generally trading 20bp-50bp tighter globally, joyce.liang@bofa.com

(see TLAC senior vs. tier-2: pricing in Japan, Europe, and U.S.) Thus, we think BNKEA’32 Sirius Chan Research Analyst

is more attractive. Further, BNKEA tier-2 complex trades close to all-time-tight now, but Merrill Lynch (Hong Kong)

its TLAC complex was still c.30 wider than the level in 2H25. Thus, we see better upside sirius.chan@bofa.com

for BNKEA’32 with fair value at c. 100bp, in our view. For more details, please see XiangResearchGao,AnalystCFA

Structure risk mispriced: switch idea from BNKEA Tier-2 to the new BNKEA’32. (LF. LI) Merrill Lynch (Singapore)
