MENA Banks: Feedback from investor meetings

m rising competition in UAE, protracted downturn in UAE’s real estate

valuation. We also incorporate a multiples-based valuation method, assigning it a 30% weight in our overall price target. This approach involves applying

a target P/E multiple, derived from the stock’s historical trading average, to our 12M ending June-27E EPS forecast. Downside risks can come from

worsening geopolitical conditions, slowdown in economy and property market due to global macroeconomic weakness, higher than expected pressure

on capital from growth / regulatory measures, challenges in sustaining existing levels of non-interest revenues and any surprises on the M&A front.
