The issue is fairly valued based on FY24 book value, with a P/BV of 3.8x on the upper price band. Because of this, the analyst advises a Subscribe rating for the issue. This is supported by a robust credit underwriting procedure and risk management structure that minimize adverse effects on asset quality.
