Prefer PampC Over Life Insurers on Higher Earnings Visibility 鉴于盈利可预见性高较寿险公司更偏好财产险公司

Given the continued low-interest rate environment and the expected

anaemic earnings growth for Chinarsquos insurance sector in 2016 we

would prefer PampC names (~PICC PampC (02328 HK TP~HKD 1725

ldquoBuyrdquo) over life insurers We expect the earnings growth for the sector to

be anaemic in 2016 given insurersrsquo net investment income growth is being

challenged by the persistently low bond yields in China This also creates

potential headwinds for life insurers whose insurance liabilities are

somewhat inversely related to the movement in Chinarsquos government bond

yields

In the composite pure life insurer space our analysis also suggests

that CPIC (02601 HK) New China Life (01336 HK) and CTIH (00966 HK)

have above par strength and are better positioned under current

operating conditions Our least favourable names are China Life (02628

HK) and PICC Group (01339 HK)

We maintain ldquoOutperformrdquo sector investment rating on accommodative

valuation (~241 average upside potential of covered insurers) In

addition we believe current market valuation is currently pricing in an

averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered

insurers which is below the investment return in their respective embedded

value assumptions

鉴于中国持续的低利率环境以及 2016 年预期疲弱的行业盈利增长较寿险公司我们更偏

好财产险公司(~中国财险(02328 HK)目标价1725 港元ldquo买入rdquo)由于保

险公司的净投资收益增长前景正在受到国内债券收益率持续走低的挑战我们预期 2016

年盈利增长可能呈现疲弱同时这将对寿险公司不利因其部分保险准备金与中国国债收

益率成相反走势

在综合 纯寿险标的中我们的分析显示中国太保(02601 HK)新华保险(01336 HK)

和中国太平(00966 HK)拥有高于上市同业平均的能力以应对当前的运营环境我们偏

好最低的标的为中国人寿(02628 HK)和人保集团(01339 HK)

出于对估值水平的考虑我们对中国保险行业维持ldquo跑赢大市rdquo的行业投资评级(~241

个股平均潜在升幅)另外我们相信市场价格隐含 2016 年覆盖公司平均 37投资收

益率的预期低于它们各自在内含价值中所作出的精算假设

Investment thesis rating changes and stock picks

Given the continued low-interest rate environment and the expected anaemic earnings growth for Chinarsquos insurance

sector we would prefer PampC names (~PICC PampC (02328 HK TP~HKD 1725 ldquoBuyrdquo) over life insurers We expect the

earnings growth for the sector to be anaemic in 2016 given that insurersrsquo net investment income growth is being challenged by

the persistently low bond yields in China which also creates potential headwinds for life insurers whose insurance liabilities

are somewhat inversely related to the movement in Chinarsquos government bond yields For higher earnings visibility we would

refer the only pure PampC play of PICC PampC (02328 HK) over composite pure life insurers in our coverage universe

Our analysis also suggests CPIC (02601 HK) New China Life (01336 HK) and CTIH (00966 HK) have above par

strength and are better positioned under current operating conditions based on a number of evaluation metrics of risk

discount rates for the calculation of insurance liabilities the cost of recently launched life insurance policies normalised

investment performance product mix and insurance liabilities duration breakdown Within the composite pure life insurers

space our least favourable names are China Life (02628 HK) and PICC Group (01339 HK)

We maintain ldquoOutperformrdquo sector investment rating on accommodative valuation and see an average absolute

upside potential of 241 in our covered insurersrsquo stock price performance over a 6-12 month time horizon Sector

valuation has returned to the pre-bull market level in November 2014 Historical PEV now stands below 100x showing a fairly

long path to reach the post-conditions of the global financial crisis of a 7-year average of 173x During a 7-year observation

horizon sector valuation hit a trough in February this year recording a reading of 071x historical PEV In addition we believe

the market is currently pricing in an averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered insurers which is

below the investment return in their respective embedded value assumptions

1Q16 results wrap strong premium income growth but shareholdersrsquo profit declined sharply

Major listed insurers posted notable yoy decreases in 1Q16 shareholdersrsquo profit albeit solid capital positions are

suggested by quarter-end C-ROSS based solvency margin ratios Dragged by weaker investment performance and

increased insurance liabilities 1Q16 earnings for our covered insurers exhibited a downward growth trend The deteriorated

investment performance was primarily caused by the underperforming A-share market where the Shanghai Composite index

lost around 15 during the first quarter of the year resulting in significantly decreased net realised gains Moreover the

dropping bond yields added more pressure on the new insurersrsquo funds as we believe that there was a continuation of slowing

yoy growth in insurersrsquo net investment income during 1Q16 Compared to the decreased growth momentum exhibited in

investment income premium income experienced strong yoy growth with the exception of New China Life which recorded a

yoy decrease of 104 due to changes in product mix An important cost item namely insurance liabilities rose notably in

1Q16 not only on the grounds of an increase in premium income but more likely as a result of the adverse impacts stemming

from dropping China government bond yields which are referenced in determining the appropriate risk discount rates for

traditional life insurance products The other aspect worth noting is that our covered insurers have started to disclose

quarter-end solvency margin ratios under C-ROSS This new risk oriented solvency management framework aims to provide a

more precise and comprehensive account for insurersrsquo capital positions At a glance all covered life insurers (~including the

life insurance operating subsidiary under PICC Group and CTIH) posted a solvency margin ratio above 200 suggesting that

their respective capital positions were in good shape

Which life insurer is best positioned under current operating conditions

Our assessment suggests that the life insurance business of CPIC New China Life and CTIH have above par strength

and are comparatively better positioned under current operating conditions In the current low-interest rate environment

in China investorsrsquo key concern about Chinarsquos insurance sector centres around the ldquointerest rate spreadrdquo between the ldquocostrdquo of

insurance policies and the yields on investment assets We have frequently heard that investors are questioning the

sustainability and appropriateness of some insurersrsquo long-term investment yield assumptions given the dropping bond yields

Theoretically speaking dropping bond yields bring headwind for life insurersrsquo earnings growth outlook on the grounds of 1

lower expected rate of return on new insurersrsquo funds and 2 an expected increase in insurance liabilities for traditional life

insurance products (~whose risk discount rates are referenced to Chinarsquos government bond yields) We introduce a score

sheet for our covered insurers attempting to provide a comprehensive assessment on their risk-return profiles thus we could

determine their overall strength and positioning The assessment comprises a number of evaluation metrics of risk discount

rates for the calculation of insurance liability the cost of recently launched life insurance policies normalised investment

performance product mix and insurance liability duration breakdown

Metric 1 Risk discount rates for calculating insurance liabilities under the financial reporting framework

The risk discount rates for traditional life insurance products showed a downward trend in 2015 reflecting the

lowering government bond yields The calculation of insurance liabilities is essential to life insurers when presenting their

profit loss positions The complexity associated to it not only lies in the actuarial analysis itself but also the choice of

calculation method depending on the end user Strictly speaking insurance liabilities can be calculated under statutory

solvency tax and financial reporting frameworks The former three frameworks normally comprise of unified pre-determined

assumptions that are set by CIRC with a greater degree of prudence than the last When insurers are preparing the financial

statements the assumptions particularly for the risk discount rates are set according to ldquobest-estimaterdquo principles reflecting

their respective business experiences Our covered insurers normally disclose a range of risk discount rates that they apply

during the respective reporting period For policies whose future benefits are not dependent on investment performances

typically traditional life insurance products their risk discount rates are referenced to a 750-day moving average of Chinarsquos

long-duration government bond yields According to company disclosures in 2015 while the risk discount rates for investment

featured policies remained largely unchanged the risk discount rates for traditional life insurance products however dropped

5-40 bps on a yoy basis

Metric 2 Gauging the ldquocostrdquo of insurance policies

The ldquocostrdquo of insurance policies in our view could be characterised by the disclosed guaranteed minimum and

monthly settlement interest rates on selected universal life insurance products which ranges from 430 to 580

pa for the recently launched products by the covered insurers Due to the complexity of the pricing process of an

insurance policy the true ldquocostrdquo of that policy in a numerical form is less directly observable than the investment yields

achieved on investment instruments such as bond securities Considering the most important profit driver for Chinarsquos insurers

is the spread income ie the difference between actual versus assumed investment yield on insurersrsquo funds we attempt to

gauge the funding cost by observing the monthly settlement interest rates on universal life insurance products Our sample

products were selected based on their recent CIRC registration dates and whether they were the key product during the

jumpstart season

Metric 3 Estimation of net investment yield under normalised investment return assumptions

Under unified normalised investment return assumptions our analysis shows that current investment mix for the

covered insurers will produce an estimated net investment yield ranging between 317 and 361 We have

conducted a comprehensive comparison of investment asset mix for the covered insurers and have applied unified normalised

investment return assumptions in order to determine the investment management ability based on static results In this

assessment Ping An CPIC New China Life and CTIHrsquos estimated net investment yield could be regarded as outperforming

whereas China Life and PICC Life posted underperforming results

Metric 4 Product mix

China Life and Ping An has comparatively higher proportion of universal life insurance products in the product mix

with an estimated percentage of 104 and 285 in 2015 respectively Selling universal life insurance products is the

usual tactic for volume play for Chinarsquos insurers especially during the jumpstart season in the first quarter of the year Although

traditional life insurance products have gained some traction after its pricing reform in 2013 universal life insurance products

remain a key important product type for the yield-starved customers We continue to employ our ldquoquasi-premiumsrdquo terminology

for the measurement of market share breakdown by product types Our analysis shows that on the sector front premiums

from universal life insurance products continued to account for around 32 in the total quasi-premiums in 2015 and this

percentage rose to around 41 in 1Q16 Even on a yoy comparison the percentage rose around 18 ppts suggesting heavier

reliance on investment oriented products for cash flow generation As for our covered insurers a few of them had sold

universal life insurance products as riders attached to the basic policy for the purpose of yield enhancement during this yearrsquos

Metric 5 Duration analysis of insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities

A considerable portion of our insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities had a duration of over 5 years

Based on the covered insurersrsquo 2015 annual disclosures we find that their insurance and investment contract liabilities on an

aggregate level were fairly long-dated 73 of the insurance and investment contract liabilities on average had a duration of

over 5 years We believe there is a growing trend for major listed life insurers to stretch their insurance and investment

contract liabilities and the motivation for which in our view may stem from the following 1 new products tend to have a longer

product duration as the regulator promotes the sales of long-duration and protection oriented products and 2 life insurersrsquo

own initiative in order to battle the low-interest rate environment At a closer look at our covered insurers due to the

differences in business scope pure life insurers such as China Life and New China Life most of their insurance and durations

of investment contract liabilities were over 5 years whereas composite insurance companies like the rest (~Ping An CPIC

PICC Group and CTIH) had the proportion of longer duration liabilities diluted to some extent because of the inclusion of PampC

Life and PampC insurance sector near-term outlook

We expect the growth trajectory for Chinarsquos life insurance sector premium income to be flattened in 2H16 on the

grounds of tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life insurance products and increasing divergence in

product distribution strategies among life insurers Despite the high base in 2015 Chinarsquos life insurance sector ytd

premium income still managed to deliver an astonishing yoy gain of 524 in 1Q16 which is mainly attributed to the

performance achieved during this yearrsquos jumpstart season The competitive landscape of the sector however remained fairly

concentrated given the usual ldquoBig 4rdquo life insurers still taking up a combined market share of approximately 481 Chinese

commercial banks-backed insurers and some unlisted ones experienced rapid growth in premium income by utilising their

respective advantages in distribution channels and product offerings Looking ahead we think the growth trajectory in 2H16 is

expected to be flattened to some extent mainly on the back of CIRCrsquos tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life

insurance products and increasing divergence in product distribution strategies among life insurers (Please refer to our

previous comment CIRC Tightens the Sale of Short Medium Duration High Cash Value Life Insurance Products We Expect

Our Covered Insurers to Have Moderate Exposure)

We believe that the former will have a more adverse impact on the premium income growth outlook for new comers in the

sector with less diversified product portfolios and the latter is concluded based on our observation of the product shifts for

some of our covered life insurers We see a growing trend for the listed life insurers to employ a differentiated product

distribution strategy which was demonstrated by New China Lifersquos unusual 104 yoy decline in premium income during the

jumpstart season Nevertheless we still see that the sector premium income posted a strong yoy growth rate of around 35 in

The continuation of the commercial auto insurance pricing reform in China is expected to further weigh on generic

pricing rates but we believe the underwriting profit margin will be further improved Recently released operating data

by the CIRC reaffirmed our views on the pricing reform of slower revenue growth but it comes with improved margins CIRC

said on May 11 that the combined ratio for auto insurance in the pilot regions was 94 in 1Q16 with a yoy increase of 113 in

premium income compared to 121 nationwide The reform kicked off last June in six pilot regions and it expanded to twelve

in January By the end of June the number of pilot regions will be increased to eighteen At this stage CIRC sees that the

underwriting risks have not been fully reflected in the pricing yet implying that the degree of insurersrsquo pricing autonomy still

has room to grow In addition we see less room for fiercer competition on the expense side given potential capital constraints

for PampC insurers

Given Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to remain low and with the full implementation of C-ROSS we

expect that insurersrsquo funds will continue to favour non-standard investment instruments among which we believe

debt schemes are likely to be the type with highest growth potential In short our viewpoint is that Chinarsquos government

bond yields are expected to hover around current low levels on the back of 1 Chinarsquos weak macroeconomic growth outlook

Albeit our macro team does not foresee a hard landing scenario for Chinarsquos economy current macro readings imply the lack of

upward catalysts which favours risk-free assets such as sovereign bonds together with the tamed inflation expectation and th

expected decelerating credit growth in 2H16 we see Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to be at low levels 2

Chinarsquos expansionary fiscal policy may induce a greater supply of sovereign bonds We see the ongoing supply-side reforms

may also be achieved by the introduction of expansionary fiscal policies which is likely to result in higher deficits and in turn

will translate into a greater supply of sovereign bonds suppressing the bond yields Putting the dropping bond yields into

context we see insurersrsquo net investment yields on bond securities may have more downside potential The rational reaction for

insurers will be investing more funds in higher yield investment instruments Among the non-standard investment instruments

of commercial bank WMP debt schemes AM plans and trust products We believe debt schemes could be the ldquosafest betrdquo for

insurers based on 1 less capital consumption under C-ROSS and 2 the supply of certain beneficiary rights related trust

products may decrease because of the release of Document 82 by CBRC in May requiring Chinese commercial banks to

properly conduct provisioning for moving certain credit assets out of their balance sheets The former argument is more

apparent as under C-ROSS quantifiable market risk category each investment instrument has been assigned to a minimum

capital requirement factor (~less 10) the higher the factor the more capital consuming that instrument is As the table below

shows debt schemes have lower risk factors than that of for trust products and AM plans Moreover we are optimistic about

the general supply for debt schemes since the underlying investments are normally large government-led infrastructure

projects We think the aforementioned expansionary fiscal policy will bring sizable investments in this field accommodating

insurer fund investment appetite

Sector valuation where are we now and what is in the price

Sector valuation has been depressed following the abrupt sell-off at the beginning of the year and currently it points

to the pre-bull market levels seen in November 2014 Sector valuation has returned to the pre-bull market levels in

November 2014 Historical PEV now stands below 100x and it shows a fairly long journey to reach the post global financial

crisis level of the 7-year average of 173x During a 7-year observation horizon sector valuation hit a trough in February this

year recording a reading of 071x historical PEV Regarding the historical PEV annual range it has quite narrow and is not

dispersed even when compared to 2012 implying a lack of positive price catalysts and discouraging investment sentiments

Historical stock prices of Hong Kong listed Chinese insurance companies have a certain degree of correlation with

Chinese government bond yields We believe that the Chinese government bond yields have a certain degree of

predictability power on the stock prices of our covered insurers from a trading perspective On a fundamental account a higher

bond yield may imply a higher net investment yield for new insurersrsquo funds investing in bond securities Moreover as investing

in insurance companies is often a form of macro play rising government bond yields may suggest improving macroeconomic

conditions and rising risk appetites in the market (~ selling risk free assets and buying risk assets) which could help explaining

the somewhat positive correlation

We believe the market is currently pricing in an averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered

insurers which is below the investment return in their respective embedded value assumptions We utilise EV

sensitivity tables from each covered insurer to derive this implied market price expectation regarding 2016 investment return

Our analysis shows that the market seems particularly pessimistic about this yearrsquos investment performance for New China

Life which it implies a reduction of 220 bps from the baseline of 50

Downgrade on Future Investment Performance Pressure

投资表现压力引致评级下调

1Q16 EPS was down 58 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased claims amp expenses Investment income (ex FV gains) was

down 224 yoy Net the investment yield was 500 pa but the

comprehensive investment yield was merely 369 pa on poor A-share

performance during the period

We see the Companyrsquos earnings growth to be anaemic on possible

weakened investment performance and rising insurance reserve

charges We see China Lifersquos investment asset allocation is in a worse

position compared to listed peers and we expect that the potential rise in

the ldquocostrdquo of new policies may weigh on the long-term investment return

assumption in the EV We lower 2016F EPS by 163 on a downward

adjustment in full-year investment income

We downgrade the investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo on future

investment performance pressure with a trimmed target price of HKD

1986 per share We value China Life by applying NBV multiple based

valuation technique with a 2016F NBV multiple of 59x and an assumed

COE of 105 Key downside risk includes 1 investment performance

pressure on new insurer funds and 2 unexpected A-share market

deterioration

2016 年 1 季度每股盈利因投资收益的减少和保险赔付及开支的增加而同比下滑 58

投资收益(不含公允价值变动)同比下跌 224期末年化净投资收益率为 500但

综合收益率年化仅为 369主要原因是 A 股市场的不景气所致

由于可能出现的不佳投资表现和保险准备金的上升我们预期公司未来盈利增长较为疲

由于投资表现压力我们将公司的投资评级下调至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 1986

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

价值乘数并假设股本成本为 122

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

Investment thesis rating changes and stock picks

Given the continued low-interest rate environment and the expected anaemic earnings growth for Chinarsquos insurance

sector we would prefer PampC names (~PICC PampC (02328 HK TP~HKD 1725 ldquoBuyrdquo) over life insurers We expect the

earnings growth for the sector to be anaemic in 2016 given that insurersrsquo net investment income growth is being challenged by

the persistently low bond yields in China which also creates potential headwinds for life insurers whose insurance liabilities

are somewhat inversely related to the movement in Chinarsquos government bond yields For higher earnings visibility we would

refer the only pure PampC play of PICC PampC (02328 HK) over composite pure life insurers in our coverage universe

Our analysis also suggests CPIC (02601 HK) New China Life (01336 HK) and CTIH (00966 HK) have above par

strength and are better positioned under current operating conditions based on a number of evaluation metrics of risk

discount rates for the calculation of insurance liabilities the cost of recently launched life insurance policies normalised

investment performance product mix and insurance liabilities duration breakdown Within the composite pure life insurers

space our least favourable names are China Life (02628 HK) and PICC Group (01339 HK)

We maintain ldquoOutperformrdquo sector investment rating on accommodative valuation and see an average absolute

upside potential of 241 in our covered insurersrsquo stock price performance over a 6-12 month time horizon Sector

valuation has returned to the pre-bull market level in November 2014 Historical PEV now stands below 100x showing a fairly

long path to reach the post-conditions of the global financial crisis of a 7-year average of 173x During a 7-year observation

horizon sector valuation hit a trough in February this year recording a reading of 071x historical PEV In addition we believe

the market is currently pricing in an averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered insurers which is

below the investment return in their respective embedded value assumptions

1Q16 results wrap strong premium income growth but shareholdersrsquo profit declined sharply

Major listed insurers posted notable yoy decreases in 1Q16 shareholdersrsquo profit albeit solid capital positions are

suggested by quarter-end C-ROSS based solvency margin ratios Dragged by weaker investment performance and

increased insurance liabilities 1Q16 earnings for our covered insurers exhibited a downward growth trend The deteriorated

investment performance was primarily caused by the underperforming A-share market where the Shanghai Composite index

lost around 15 during the first quarter of the year resulting in significantly decreased net realised gains Moreover the

dropping bond yields added more pressure on the new insurersrsquo funds as we believe that there was a continuation of slowing

yoy growth in insurersrsquo net investment income during 1Q16 Compared to the decreased growth momentum exhibited in

investment income premium income experienced strong yoy growth with the exception of New China Life which recorded a

yoy decrease of 104 due to changes in product mix An important cost item namely insurance liabilities rose notably in

1Q16 not only on the grounds of an increase in premium income but more likely as a result of the adverse impacts stemming

from dropping China government bond yields which are referenced in determining the appropriate risk discount rates for

traditional life insurance products The other aspect worth noting is that our covered insurers have started to disclose

quarter-end solvency margin ratios under C-ROSS This new risk oriented solvency management framework aims to provide a

more precise and comprehensive account for insurersrsquo capital positions At a glance all covered life insurers (~including the

life insurance operating subsidiary under PICC Group and CTIH) posted a solvency margin ratio above 200 suggesting that

their respective capital positions were in good shape

Which life insurer is best positioned under current operating conditions

Our assessment suggests that the life insurance business of CPIC New China Life and CTIH have above par strength

and are comparatively better positioned under current operating conditions In the current low-interest rate environment

in China investorsrsquo key concern about Chinarsquos insurance sector centres around the ldquointerest rate spreadrdquo between the ldquocostrdquo of

insurance policies and the yields on investment assets We have frequently heard that investors are questioning the

sustainability and appropriateness of some insurersrsquo long-term investment yield assumptions given the dropping bond yields

Theoretically speaking dropping bond yields bring headwind for life insurersrsquo earnings growth outlook on the grounds of 1

lower expected rate of return on new insurersrsquo funds and 2 an expected increase in insurance liabilities for traditional life

insurance products (~whose risk discount rates are referenced to Chinarsquos government bond yields) We introduce a score

sheet for our covered insurers attempting to provide a comprehensive assessment on their risk-return profiles thus we could

determine their overall strength and positioning The assessment comprises a number of evaluation metrics of risk discount

rates for the calculation of insurance liability the cost of recently launched life insurance policies normalised investment

performance product mix and insurance liability duration breakdown

Metric 1 Risk discount rates for calculating insurance liabilities under the financial reporting framework

The risk discount rates for traditional life insurance products showed a downward trend in 2015 reflecting the

lowering government bond yields The calculation of insurance liabilities is essential to life insurers when presenting their

profit loss positions The complexity associated to it not only lies in the actuarial analysis itself but also the choice of

calculation method depending on the end user Strictly speaking insurance liabilities can be calculated under statutory

solvency tax and financial reporting frameworks The former three frameworks normally comprise of unified pre-determined

assumptions that are set by CIRC with a greater degree of prudence than the last When insurers are preparing the financial

statements the assumptions particularly for the risk discount rates are set according to ldquobest-estimaterdquo principles reflecting

their respective business experiences Our covered insurers normally disclose a range of risk discount rates that they apply

during the respective reporting period For policies whose future benefits are not dependent on investment performances

typically traditional life insurance products their risk discount rates are referenced to a 750-day moving average of Chinarsquos

long-duration government bond yields According to company disclosures in 2015 while the risk discount rates for investment

featured policies remained largely unchanged the risk discount rates for traditional life insurance products however dropped

5-40 bps on a yoy basis

Metric 2 Gauging the ldquocostrdquo of insurance policies

The ldquocostrdquo of insurance policies in our view could be characterised by the disclosed guaranteed minimum and

monthly settlement interest rates on selected universal life insurance products which ranges from 430 to 580

pa for the recently launched products by the covered insurers Due to the complexity of the pricing process of an

insurance policy the true ldquocostrdquo of that policy in a numerical form is less directly observable than the investment yields

achieved on investment instruments such as bond securities Considering the most important profit driver for Chinarsquos insurers

is the spread income ie the difference between actual versus assumed investment yield on insurersrsquo funds we attempt to

gauge the funding cost by observing the monthly settlement interest rates on universal life insurance products Our sample

Metric 3 Estimation of net investment yield under normalised investment return assumptions

Under unified normalised investment return assumptions our analysis shows that current investment mix for the

covered insurers will produce an estimated net investment yield ranging between 317 and 361 We have

conducted a comprehensive comparison of investment asset mix for the covered insurers and have applied unified normalised

investment return assumptions in order to determine the investment management ability based on static results In this

assessment Ping An CPIC New China Life and CTIHrsquos estimated net investment yield could be regarded as outperforming

whereas China Life and PICC Life posted underperforming results

Metric 4 Product mix

China Life and Ping An has comparatively higher proportion of universal life insurance products in the product mix

with an estimated percentage of 104 and 285 in 2015 respectively Selling universal life insurance products is the

usual tactic for volume play for Chinarsquos insurers especially during the jumpstart season in the first quarter of the year Although

traditional life insurance products have gained some traction after its pricing reform in 2013 universal life insurance products

remain a key important product type for the yield-starved customers We continue to employ our ldquoquasi-premiumsrdquo terminology

for the measurement of market share breakdown by product types Our analysis shows that on the sector front premiums

from universal life insurance products continued to account for around 32 in the total quasi-premiums in 2015 and this

percentage rose to around 41 in 1Q16 Even on a yoy comparison the percentage rose around 18 ppts suggesting heavier

reliance on investment oriented products for cash flow generation As for our covered insurers a few of them had sold

universal life insurance products as riders attached to the basic policy for the purpose of yield enhancement during this yearrsquos

Metric 5 Duration analysis of insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities

A considerable portion of our insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities had a duration of over 5 years

Based on the covered insurersrsquo 2015 annual disclosures we find that their insurance and investment contract liabilities on an

aggregate level were fairly long-dated 73 of the insurance and investment contract liabilities on average had a duration of

over 5 years We believe there is a growing trend for major listed life insurers to stretch their insurance and investment

contract liabilities and the motivation for which in our view may stem from the following 1 new products tend to have a longer

product duration as the regulator promotes the sales of long-duration and protection oriented products and 2 life insurersrsquo

own initiative in order to battle the low-interest rate environment At a closer look at our covered insurers due to the

differences in business scope pure life insurers such as China Life and New China Life most of their insurance and durations

of investment contract liabilities were over 5 years whereas composite insurance companies like the rest (~Ping An CPIC

PICC Group and CTIH) had the proportion of longer duration liabilities diluted to some extent because of the inclusion of PampC

Life and PampC insurance sector near-term outlook

We expect the growth trajectory for Chinarsquos life insurance sector premium income to be flattened in 2H16 on the

grounds of tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life insurance products and increasing divergence in

product distribution strategies among life insurers Despite the high base in 2015 Chinarsquos life insurance sector ytd

premium income still managed to deliver an astonishing yoy gain of 524 in 1Q16 which is mainly attributed to the

performance achieved during this yearrsquos jumpstart season The competitive landscape of the sector however remained fairly

concentrated given the usual ldquoBig 4rdquo life insurers still taking up a combined market share of approximately 481 Chinese

commercial banks-backed insurers and some unlisted ones experienced rapid growth in premium income by utilising their

respective advantages in distribution channels and product offerings Looking ahead we think the growth trajectory in 2H16 is

expected to be flattened to some extent mainly on the back of CIRCrsquos tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life

insurance products and increasing divergence in product distribution strategies among life insurers (Please refer to our

previous comment CIRC Tightens the Sale of Short Medium Duration High Cash Value Life Insurance Products We Expect

Our Covered Insurers to Have Moderate Exposure)

We believe that the former will have a more adverse impact on the premium income growth outlook for new comers in the

sector with less diversified product portfolios and the latter is concluded based on our observation of the product shifts for

some of our covered life insurers We see a growing trend for the listed life insurers to employ a differentiated product

distribution strategy which was demonstrated by New China Lifersquos unusual 104 yoy decline in premium income during the

jumpstart season Nevertheless we still see that the sector premium income posted a strong yoy growth rate of around 35 in

The continuation of the commercial auto insurance pricing reform in China is expected to further weigh on generic

pricing rates but we believe the underwriting profit margin will be further improved Recently released operating data

by the CIRC reaffirmed our views on the pricing reform of slower revenue growth but it comes with improved margins CIRC

said on May 11 that the combined ratio for auto insurance in the pilot regions was 94 in 1Q16 with a yoy increase of 113 in

premium income compared to 121 nationwide The reform kicked off last June in six pilot regions and it expanded to twelve

in January By the end of June the number of pilot regions will be increased to eighteen At this stage CIRC sees that the

underwriting risks have not been fully reflected in the pricing yet implying that the degree of insurersrsquo pricing autonomy still

has room to grow In addition we see less room for fiercer competition on the expense side given potential capital constraints

for PampC insurers

Given Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to remain low and with the full implementation of C-ROSS we

expect that insurersrsquo funds will continue to favour non-standard investment instruments among which we believe

debt schemes are likely to be the type with highest growth potential In short our viewpoint is that Chinarsquos government

bond yields are expected to hover around current low levels on the back of 1 Chinarsquos weak macroeconomic growth outlook

Albeit our macro team does not foresee a hard landing scenario for Chinarsquos economy current macro readings imply the lack of

upward catalysts which favours risk-free assets such as sovereign bonds together with the tamed inflation expectation and th

expected decelerating credit growth in 2H16 we see Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to be at low levels 2

Chinarsquos expansionary fiscal policy may induce a greater supply of sovereign bonds We see the ongoing supply-side reforms

may also be achieved by the introduction of expansionary fiscal policies which is likely to result in higher deficits and in turn

will translate into a greater supply of sovereign bonds suppressing the bond yields Putting the dropping bond yields into

context we see insurersrsquo net investment yields on bond securities may have more downside potential The rational reaction for

insurers will be investing more funds in higher yield investment instruments Among the non-standard investment instruments

of commercial bank WMP debt schemes AM plans and trust products We believe debt schemes could be the ldquosafest betrdquo for

insurers based on 1 less capital consumption under C-ROSS and 2 the supply of certain beneficiary rights related trust

products may decrease because of the release of Document 82 by CBRC in May requiring Chinese commercial banks to

properly conduct provisioning for moving certain credit assets out of their balance sheets The former argument is more

apparent as under C-ROSS quantifiable market risk category each investment instrument has been assigned to a minimum

capital requirement factor (~less 10) the higher the factor the more capital consuming that instrument is As the table below

shows debt schemes have lower risk factors than that of for trust products and AM plans Moreover we are optimistic about

the general supply for debt schemes since the underlying investments are normally large government-led infrastructure

projects We think the aforementioned expansionary fiscal policy will bring sizable investments in this field accommodating

insurer fund investment appetite

Sector valuation where are we now and what is in the price

Sector valuation has been depressed following the abrupt sell-off at the beginning of the year and currently it points

to the pre-bull market levels seen in November 2014 Sector valuation has returned to the pre-bull market levels in

November 2014 Historical PEV now stands below 100x and it shows a fairly long journey to reach the post global financial

crisis level of the 7-year average of 173x During a 7-year observation horizon sector valuation hit a trough in February this

year recording a reading of 071x historical PEV Regarding the historical PEV annual range it has quite narrow and is not

dispersed even when compared to 2012 implying a lack of positive price catalysts and discouraging investment sentiments

Historical stock prices of Hong Kong listed Chinese insurance companies have a certain degree of correlation with

Chinese government bond yields We believe that the Chinese government bond yields have a certain degree of

predictability power on the stock prices of our covered insurers from a trading perspective On a fundamental account a higher

bond yield may imply a higher net investment yield for new insurersrsquo funds investing in bond securities Moreover as investing

in insurance companies is often a form of macro play rising government bond yields may suggest improving macroeconomic

conditions and rising risk appetites in the market (~ selling risk free assets and buying risk assets) which could help explaining

the somewhat positive correlation

We believe the market is currently pricing in an averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered

insurers which is below the investment return in their respective embedded value assumptions We utilise EV

sensitivity tables from each covered insurer to derive this implied market price expectation regarding 2016 investment return

Our analysis shows that the market seems particularly pessimistic about this yearrsquos investment performance for New China

Life which it implies a reduction of 220 bps from the baseline of 50

Downgrade on Future Investment Performance Pressure

投资表现压力引致评级下调

1Q16 EPS was down 58 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased claims amp expenses Investment income (ex FV gains) was

down 224 yoy Net the investment yield was 500 pa but the

comprehensive investment yield was merely 369 pa on poor A-share

performance during the period

We see the Companyrsquos earnings growth to be anaemic on possible

weakened investment performance and rising insurance reserve

charges We see China Lifersquos investment asset allocation is in a worse

position compared to listed peers and we expect that the potential rise in

the ldquocostrdquo of new policies may weigh on the long-term investment return

assumption in the EV We lower 2016F EPS by 163 on a downward

adjustment in full-year investment income

We downgrade the investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo on future

investment performance pressure with a trimmed target price of HKD

1986 per share We value China Life by applying NBV multiple based

valuation technique with a 2016F NBV multiple of 59x and an assumed

COE of 105 Key downside risk includes 1 investment performance

pressure on new insurer funds and 2 unexpected A-share market

综合收益率年化仅为 369主要原因是 A 股市场的不景气所致

由于可能出现的不佳投资表现和保险准备金的上升我们预期公司未来盈利增长较为疲

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

价值乘数并假设股本成本为 122

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

Investment thesis rating changes and stock picks

Given the continued low-interest rate environment and the expected anaemic earnings growth for Chinarsquos insurance

sector we would prefer PampC names (~PICC PampC (02328 HK TP~HKD 1725 ldquoBuyrdquo) over life insurers We expect the

earnings growth for the sector to be anaemic in 2016 given that insurersrsquo net investment income growth is being challenged by

the persistently low bond yields in China which also creates potential headwinds for life insurers whose insurance liabilities

are somewhat inversely related to the movement in Chinarsquos government bond yields For higher earnings visibility we would

refer the only pure PampC play of PICC PampC (02328 HK) over composite pure life insurers in our coverage universe

Our analysis also suggests CPIC (02601 HK) New China Life (01336 HK) and CTIH (00966 HK) have above par

strength and are better positioned under current operating conditions based on a number of evaluation metrics of risk

discount rates for the calculation of insurance liabilities the cost of recently launched life insurance policies normalised

investment performance product mix and insurance liabilities duration breakdown Within the composite pure life insurers

space our least favourable names are China Life (02628 HK) and PICC Group (01339 HK)

We maintain ldquoOutperformrdquo sector investment rating on accommodative valuation and see an average absolute

upside potential of 241 in our covered insurersrsquo stock price performance over a 6-12 month time horizon Sector

valuation has returned to the pre-bull market level in November 2014 Historical PEV now stands below 100x showing a fairly

long path to reach the post-conditions of the global financial crisis of a 7-year average of 173x During a 7-year observation

horizon sector valuation hit a trough in February this year recording a reading of 071x historical PEV In addition we believe

the market is currently pricing in an averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered insurers which is

below the investment return in their respective embedded value assumptions

1Q16 results wrap strong premium income growth but shareholdersrsquo profit declined sharply

Major listed insurers posted notable yoy decreases in 1Q16 shareholdersrsquo profit albeit solid capital positions are

suggested by quarter-end C-ROSS based solvency margin ratios Dragged by weaker investment performance and

increased insurance liabilities 1Q16 earnings for our covered insurers exhibited a downward growth trend The deteriorated

investment performance was primarily caused by the underperforming A-share market where the Shanghai Composite index

lost around 15 during the first quarter of the year resulting in significantly decreased net realised gains Moreover the

dropping bond yields added more pressure on the new insurersrsquo funds as we believe that there was a continuation of slowing

yoy growth in insurersrsquo net investment income during 1Q16 Compared to the decreased growth momentum exhibited in

investment income premium income experienced strong yoy growth with the exception of New China Life which recorded a

yoy decrease of 104 due to changes in product mix An important cost item namely insurance liabilities rose notably in

1Q16 not only on the grounds of an increase in premium income but more likely as a result of the adverse impacts stemming

from dropping China government bond yields which are referenced in determining the appropriate risk discount rates for

traditional life insurance products The other aspect worth noting is that our covered insurers have started to disclose

quarter-end solvency margin ratios under C-ROSS This new risk oriented solvency management framework aims to provide a

more precise and comprehensive account for insurersrsquo capital positions At a glance all covered life insurers (~including the

life insurance operating subsidiary under PICC Group and CTIH) posted a solvency margin ratio above 200 suggesting that

their respective capital positions were in good shape

Which life insurer is best positioned under current operating conditions

Our assessment suggests that the life insurance business of CPIC New China Life and CTIH have above par strength

and are comparatively better positioned under current operating conditions In the current low-interest rate environment

in China investorsrsquo key concern about Chinarsquos insurance sector centres around the ldquointerest rate spreadrdquo between the ldquocostrdquo of

insurance policies and the yields on investment assets We have frequently heard that investors are questioning the

sustainability and appropriateness of some insurersrsquo long-term investment yield assumptions given the dropping bond yields

Theoretically speaking dropping bond yields bring headwind for life insurersrsquo earnings growth outlook on the grounds of 1

lower expected rate of return on new insurersrsquo funds and 2 an expected increase in insurance liabilities for traditional life

insurance products (~whose risk discount rates are referenced to Chinarsquos government bond yields) We introduce a score

sheet for our covered insurers attempting to provide a comprehensive assessment on their risk-return profiles thus we could

determine their overall strength and positioning The assessment comprises a number of evaluation metrics of risk discount

rates for the calculation of insurance liability the cost of recently launched life insurance policies normalised investment

performance product mix and insurance liability duration breakdown

Metric 1 Risk discount rates for calculating insurance liabilities under the financial reporting framework

The risk discount rates for traditional life insurance products showed a downward trend in 2015 reflecting the

lowering government bond yields The calculation of insurance liabilities is essential to life insurers when presenting their

profit loss positions The complexity associated to it not only lies in the actuarial analysis itself but also the choice of

calculation method depending on the end user Strictly speaking insurance liabilities can be calculated under statutory

solvency tax and financial reporting frameworks The former three frameworks normally comprise of unified pre-determined

assumptions that are set by CIRC with a greater degree of prudence than the last When insurers are preparing the financial

statements the assumptions particularly for the risk discount rates are set according to ldquobest-estimaterdquo principles reflecting

their respective business experiences Our covered insurers normally disclose a range of risk discount rates that they apply

during the respective reporting period For policies whose future benefits are not dependent on investment performances

typically traditional life insurance products their risk discount rates are referenced to a 750-day moving average of Chinarsquos

long-duration government bond yields According to company disclosures in 2015 while the risk discount rates for investment

featured policies remained largely unchanged the risk discount rates for traditional life insurance products however dropped

5-40 bps on a yoy basis

Metric 2 Gauging the ldquocostrdquo of insurance policies

The ldquocostrdquo of insurance policies in our view could be characterised by the disclosed guaranteed minimum and

monthly settlement interest rates on selected universal life insurance products which ranges from 430 to 580

pa for the recently launched products by the covered insurers Due to the complexity of the pricing process of an

insurance policy the true ldquocostrdquo of that policy in a numerical form is less directly observable than the investment yields

achieved on investment instruments such as bond securities Considering the most important profit driver for Chinarsquos insurers

is the spread income ie the difference between actual versus assumed investment yield on insurersrsquo funds we attempt to

gauge the funding cost by observing the monthly settlement interest rates on universal life insurance products Our sample

products were selected based on their recent CIRC registration dates and whether they were the key product during the

jumpstart season

Metric 3 Estimation of net investment yield under normalised investment return assumptions

Under unified normalised investment return assumptions our analysis shows that current investment mix for the

covered insurers will produce an estimated net investment yield ranging between 317 and 361 We have

conducted a comprehensive comparison of investment asset mix for the covered insurers and have applied unified normalised

investment return assumptions in order to determine the investment management ability based on static results In this

assessment Ping An CPIC New China Life and CTIHrsquos estimated net investment yield could be regarded as outperforming

whereas China Life and PICC Life posted underperforming results

Metric 4 Product mix

China Life and Ping An has comparatively higher proportion of universal life insurance products in the product mix

with an estimated percentage of 104 and 285 in 2015 respectively Selling universal life insurance products is the

usual tactic for volume play for Chinarsquos insurers especially during the jumpstart season in the first quarter of the year Although

traditional life insurance products have gained some traction after its pricing reform in 2013 universal life insurance products

remain a key important product type for the yield-starved customers We continue to employ our ldquoquasi-premiumsrdquo terminology

for the measurement of market share breakdown by product types Our analysis shows that on the sector front premiums

from universal life insurance products continued to account for around 32 in the total quasi-premiums in 2015 and this

percentage rose to around 41 in 1Q16 Even on a yoy comparison the percentage rose around 18 ppts suggesting heavier

reliance on investment oriented products for cash flow generation As for our covered insurers a few of them had sold

universal life insurance products as riders attached to the basic policy for the purpose of yield enhancement during this yearrsquos

jumpstart season

Metric 5 Duration analysis of insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities

A considerable portion of our insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities had a duration of over 5 years

Based on the covered insurersrsquo 2015 annual disclosures we find that their insurance and investment contract liabilities on an

aggregate level were fairly long-dated 73 of the insurance and investment contract liabilities on average had a duration of

over 5 years We believe there is a growing trend for major listed life insurers to stretch their insurance and investment

contract liabilities and the motivation for which in our view may stem from the following 1 new products tend to have a longer

product duration as the regulator promotes the sales of long-duration and protection oriented products and 2 life insurersrsquo

own initiative in order to battle the low-interest rate environment At a closer look at our covered insurers due to the

differences in business scope pure life insurers such as China Life and New China Life most of their insurance and durations

of investment contract liabilities were over 5 years whereas composite insurance companies like the rest (~Ping An CPIC

PICC Group and CTIH) had the proportion of longer duration liabilities diluted to some extent because of the inclusion of PampC

Life and PampC insurance sector near-term outlook

We expect the growth trajectory for Chinarsquos life insurance sector premium income to be flattened in 2H16 on the

grounds of tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life insurance products and increasing divergence in

product distribution strategies among life insurers Despite the high base in 2015 Chinarsquos life insurance sector ytd

premium income still managed to deliver an astonishing yoy gain of 524 in 1Q16 which is mainly attributed to the

performance achieved during this yearrsquos jumpstart season The competitive landscape of the sector however remained fairly

concentrated given the usual ldquoBig 4rdquo life insurers still taking up a combined market share of approximately 481 Chinese

commercial banks-backed insurers and some unlisted ones experienced rapid growth in premium income by utilising their

respective advantages in distribution channels and product offerings Looking ahead we think the growth trajectory in 2H16 is

expected to be flattened to some extent mainly on the back of CIRCrsquos tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life

insurance products and increasing divergence in product distribution strategies among life insurers (Please refer to our

previous comment CIRC Tightens the Sale of Short Medium Duration High Cash Value Life Insurance Products We Expect

Our Covered Insurers to Have Moderate Exposure)

We believe that the former will have a more adverse impact on the premium income growth outlook for new comers in the

sector with less diversified product portfolios and the latter is concluded based on our observation of the product shifts for

some of our covered life insurers We see a growing trend for the listed life insurers to employ a differentiated product

distribution strategy which was demonstrated by New China Lifersquos unusual 104 yoy decline in premium income during the

jumpstart season Nevertheless we still see that the sector premium income posted a strong yoy growth rate of around 35 in

The continuation of the commercial auto insurance pricing reform in China is expected to further weigh on generic

pricing rates but we believe the underwriting profit margin will be further improved Recently released operating data

by the CIRC reaffirmed our views on the pricing reform of slower revenue growth but it comes with improved margins CIRC

said on May 11 that the combined ratio for auto insurance in the pilot regions was 94 in 1Q16 with a yoy increase of 113 in

premium income compared to 121 nationwide The reform kicked off last June in six pilot regions and it expanded to twelve

in January By the end of June the number of pilot regions will be increased to eighteen At this stage CIRC sees that the

underwriting risks have not been fully reflected in the pricing yet implying that the degree of insurersrsquo pricing autonomy still

has room to grow In addition we see less room for fiercer competition on the expense side given potential capital constraints

for PampC insurers

Given Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to remain low and with the full implementation of C-ROSS we

expect that insurersrsquo funds will continue to favour non-standard investment instruments among which we believe

debt schemes are likely to be the type with highest growth potential In short our viewpoint is that Chinarsquos government

bond yields are expected to hover around current low levels on the back of 1 Chinarsquos weak macroeconomic growth outlook

Albeit our macro team does not foresee a hard landing scenario for Chinarsquos economy current macro readings imply the lack of

upward catalysts which favours risk-free assets such as sovereign bonds together with the tamed inflation expectation and th

expected decelerating credit growth in 2H16 we see Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to be at low levels 2

Chinarsquos expansionary fiscal policy may induce a greater supply of sovereign bonds We see the ongoing supply-side reforms

may also be achieved by the introduction of expansionary fiscal policies which is likely to result in higher deficits and in turn

will translate into a greater supply of sovereign bonds suppressing the bond yields Putting the dropping bond yields into

context we see insurersrsquo net investment yields on bond securities may have more downside potential The rational reaction for

insurers will be investing more funds in higher yield investment instruments Among the non-standard investment instruments

of commercial bank WMP debt schemes AM plans and trust products We believe debt schemes could be the ldquosafest betrdquo for

insurers based on 1 less capital consumption under C-ROSS and 2 the supply of certain beneficiary rights related trust

products may decrease because of the release of Document 82 by CBRC in May requiring Chinese commercial banks to

properly conduct provisioning for moving certain credit assets out of their balance sheets The former argument is more

apparent as under C-ROSS quantifiable market risk category each investment instrument has been assigned to a minimum

capital requirement factor (~less 10) the higher the factor the more capital consuming that instrument is As the table below

shows debt schemes have lower risk factors than that of for trust products and AM plans Moreover we are optimistic about

the general supply for debt schemes since the underlying investments are normally large government-led infrastructure

projects We think the aforementioned expansionary fiscal policy will bring sizable investments in this field accommodating

insurer fund investment appetite

Sector valuation where are we now and what is in the price

Sector valuation has been depressed following the abrupt sell-off at the beginning of the year and currently it points

to the pre-bull market levels seen in November 2014 Sector valuation has returned to the pre-bull market levels in

November 2014 Historical PEV now stands below 100x and it shows a fairly long journey to reach the post global financial

crisis level of the 7-year average of 173x During a 7-year observation horizon sector valuation hit a trough in February this

year recording a reading of 071x historical PEV Regarding the historical PEV annual range it has quite narrow and is not

dispersed even when compared to 2012 implying a lack of positive price catalysts and discouraging investment sentiments

Historical stock prices of Hong Kong listed Chinese insurance companies have a certain degree of correlation with

Chinese government bond yields We believe that the Chinese government bond yields have a certain degree of

predictability power on the stock prices of our covered insurers from a trading perspective On a fundamental account a higher

bond yield may imply a higher net investment yield for new insurersrsquo funds investing in bond securities Moreover as investing

in insurance companies is often a form of macro play rising government bond yields may suggest improving macroeconomic

conditions and rising risk appetites in the market (~ selling risk free assets and buying risk assets) which could help explaining

the somewhat positive correlation

We believe the market is currently pricing in an averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered

insurers which is below the investment return in their respective embedded value assumptions We utilise EV

sensitivity tables from each covered insurer to derive this implied market price expectation regarding 2016 investment return

Our analysis shows that the market seems particularly pessimistic about this yearrsquos investment performance for New China

Life which it implies a reduction of 220 bps from the baseline of 50

Downgrade on Future Investment Performance Pressure

投资表现压力引致评级下调

1Q16 EPS was down 58 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased claims amp expenses Investment income (ex FV gains) was

down 224 yoy Net the investment yield was 500 pa but the

comprehensive investment yield was merely 369 pa on poor A-share

performance during the period

We see the Companyrsquos earnings growth to be anaemic on possible

weakened investment performance and rising insurance reserve

charges We see China Lifersquos investment asset allocation is in a worse

position compared to listed peers and we expect that the potential rise in

the ldquocostrdquo of new policies may weigh on the long-term investment return

assumption in the EV We lower 2016F EPS by 163 on a downward

adjustment in full-year investment income

We downgrade the investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo on future

investment performance pressure with a trimmed target price of HKD

1986 per share We value China Life by applying NBV multiple based

valuation technique with a 2016F NBV multiple of 59x and an assumed

COE of 105 Key downside risk includes 1 investment performance

pressure on new insurer funds and 2 unexpected A-share market

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

价值乘数并假设股本成本为 122

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

1Q16 results wrap strong premium income growth but shareholdersrsquo profit declined sharply

Major listed insurers posted notable yoy decreases in 1Q16 shareholdersrsquo profit albeit solid capital positions are

suggested by quarter-end C-ROSS based solvency margin ratios Dragged by weaker investment performance and

increased insurance liabilities 1Q16 earnings for our covered insurers exhibited a downward growth trend The deteriorated

investment performance was primarily caused by the underperforming A-share market where the Shanghai Composite index

lost around 15 during the first quarter of the year resulting in significantly decreased net realised gains Moreover the

dropping bond yields added more pressure on the new insurersrsquo funds as we believe that there was a continuation of slowing

yoy growth in insurersrsquo net investment income during 1Q16 Compared to the decreased growth momentum exhibited in

investment income premium income experienced strong yoy growth with the exception of New China Life which recorded a

yoy decrease of 104 due to changes in product mix An important cost item namely insurance liabilities rose notably in

1Q16 not only on the grounds of an increase in premium income but more likely as a result of the adverse impacts stemming

from dropping China government bond yields which are referenced in determining the appropriate risk discount rates for

traditional life insurance products The other aspect worth noting is that our covered insurers have started to disclose

quarter-end solvency margin ratios under C-ROSS This new risk oriented solvency management framework aims to provide a

more precise and comprehensive account for insurersrsquo capital positions At a glance all covered life insurers (~including the

life insurance operating subsidiary under PICC Group and CTIH) posted a solvency margin ratio above 200 suggesting that

their respective capital positions were in good shape

Which life insurer is best positioned under current operating conditions

Our assessment suggests that the life insurance business of CPIC New China Life and CTIH have above par strength

and are comparatively better positioned under current operating conditions In the current low-interest rate environment

in China investorsrsquo key concern about Chinarsquos insurance sector centres around the ldquointerest rate spreadrdquo between the ldquocostrdquo of

insurance policies and the yields on investment assets We have frequently heard that investors are questioning the

sustainability and appropriateness of some insurersrsquo long-term investment yield assumptions given the dropping bond yields

Theoretically speaking dropping bond yields bring headwind for life insurersrsquo earnings growth outlook on the grounds of 1

lower expected rate of return on new insurersrsquo funds and 2 an expected increase in insurance liabilities for traditional life

insurance products (~whose risk discount rates are referenced to Chinarsquos government bond yields) We introduce a score

sheet for our covered insurers attempting to provide a comprehensive assessment on their risk-return profiles thus we could

determine their overall strength and positioning The assessment comprises a number of evaluation metrics of risk discount

rates for the calculation of insurance liability the cost of recently launched life insurance policies normalised investment

performance product mix and insurance liability duration breakdown

Metric 1 Risk discount rates for calculating insurance liabilities under the financial reporting framework

The risk discount rates for traditional life insurance products showed a downward trend in 2015 reflecting the

lowering government bond yields The calculation of insurance liabilities is essential to life insurers when presenting their

profit loss positions The complexity associated to it not only lies in the actuarial analysis itself but also the choice of

calculation method depending on the end user Strictly speaking insurance liabilities can be calculated under statutory

solvency tax and financial reporting frameworks The former three frameworks normally comprise of unified pre-determined

assumptions that are set by CIRC with a greater degree of prudence than the last When insurers are preparing the financial

statements the assumptions particularly for the risk discount rates are set according to ldquobest-estimaterdquo principles reflecting

their respective business experiences Our covered insurers normally disclose a range of risk discount rates that they apply

during the respective reporting period For policies whose future benefits are not dependent on investment performances

typically traditional life insurance products their risk discount rates are referenced to a 750-day moving average of Chinarsquos

long-duration government bond yields According to company disclosures in 2015 while the risk discount rates for investment

featured policies remained largely unchanged the risk discount rates for traditional life insurance products however dropped

5-40 bps on a yoy basis

Metric 2 Gauging the ldquocostrdquo of insurance policies

The ldquocostrdquo of insurance policies in our view could be characterised by the disclosed guaranteed minimum and

monthly settlement interest rates on selected universal life insurance products which ranges from 430 to 580

pa for the recently launched products by the covered insurers Due to the complexity of the pricing process of an

insurance policy the true ldquocostrdquo of that policy in a numerical form is less directly observable than the investment yields

achieved on investment instruments such as bond securities Considering the most important profit driver for Chinarsquos insurers

is the spread income ie the difference between actual versus assumed investment yield on insurersrsquo funds we attempt to

gauge the funding cost by observing the monthly settlement interest rates on universal life insurance products Our sample

products were selected based on their recent CIRC registration dates and whether they were the key product during the

jumpstart season

Metric 3 Estimation of net investment yield under normalised investment return assumptions

Under unified normalised investment return assumptions our analysis shows that current investment mix for the

covered insurers will produce an estimated net investment yield ranging between 317 and 361 We have

conducted a comprehensive comparison of investment asset mix for the covered insurers and have applied unified normalised

investment return assumptions in order to determine the investment management ability based on static results In this

assessment Ping An CPIC New China Life and CTIHrsquos estimated net investment yield could be regarded as outperforming

whereas China Life and PICC Life posted underperforming results

Metric 4 Product mix

China Life and Ping An has comparatively higher proportion of universal life insurance products in the product mix

with an estimated percentage of 104 and 285 in 2015 respectively Selling universal life insurance products is the

usual tactic for volume play for Chinarsquos insurers especially during the jumpstart season in the first quarter of the year Although

traditional life insurance products have gained some traction after its pricing reform in 2013 universal life insurance products

remain a key important product type for the yield-starved customers We continue to employ our ldquoquasi-premiumsrdquo terminology

for the measurement of market share breakdown by product types Our analysis shows that on the sector front premiums

from universal life insurance products continued to account for around 32 in the total quasi-premiums in 2015 and this

percentage rose to around 41 in 1Q16 Even on a yoy comparison the percentage rose around 18 ppts suggesting heavier

reliance on investment oriented products for cash flow generation As for our covered insurers a few of them had sold

universal life insurance products as riders attached to the basic policy for the purpose of yield enhancement during this yearrsquos

Metric 5 Duration analysis of insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities

A considerable portion of our insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities had a duration of over 5 years

Based on the covered insurersrsquo 2015 annual disclosures we find that their insurance and investment contract liabilities on an

aggregate level were fairly long-dated 73 of the insurance and investment contract liabilities on average had a duration of

over 5 years We believe there is a growing trend for major listed life insurers to stretch their insurance and investment

contract liabilities and the motivation for which in our view may stem from the following 1 new products tend to have a longer

product duration as the regulator promotes the sales of long-duration and protection oriented products and 2 life insurersrsquo

own initiative in order to battle the low-interest rate environment At a closer look at our covered insurers due to the

differences in business scope pure life insurers such as China Life and New China Life most of their insurance and durations

of investment contract liabilities were over 5 years whereas composite insurance companies like the rest (~Ping An CPIC

PICC Group and CTIH) had the proportion of longer duration liabilities diluted to some extent because of the inclusion of PampC

Life and PampC insurance sector near-term outlook

We expect the growth trajectory for Chinarsquos life insurance sector premium income to be flattened in 2H16 on the

grounds of tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life insurance products and increasing divergence in

product distribution strategies among life insurers Despite the high base in 2015 Chinarsquos life insurance sector ytd

premium income still managed to deliver an astonishing yoy gain of 524 in 1Q16 which is mainly attributed to the

performance achieved during this yearrsquos jumpstart season The competitive landscape of the sector however remained fairly

concentrated given the usual ldquoBig 4rdquo life insurers still taking up a combined market share of approximately 481 Chinese

commercial banks-backed insurers and some unlisted ones experienced rapid growth in premium income by utilising their

respective advantages in distribution channels and product offerings Looking ahead we think the growth trajectory in 2H16 is

expected to be flattened to some extent mainly on the back of CIRCrsquos tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life

insurance products and increasing divergence in product distribution strategies among life insurers (Please refer to our

previous comment CIRC Tightens the Sale of Short Medium Duration High Cash Value Life Insurance Products We Expect

Our Covered Insurers to Have Moderate Exposure)

We believe that the former will have a more adverse impact on the premium income growth outlook for new comers in the

sector with less diversified product portfolios and the latter is concluded based on our observation of the product shifts for

some of our covered life insurers We see a growing trend for the listed life insurers to employ a differentiated product

distribution strategy which was demonstrated by New China Lifersquos unusual 104 yoy decline in premium income during the

jumpstart season Nevertheless we still see that the sector premium income posted a strong yoy growth rate of around 35 in

2016

The continuation of the commercial auto insurance pricing reform in China is expected to further weigh on generic

pricing rates but we believe the underwriting profit margin will be further improved Recently released operating data

by the CIRC reaffirmed our views on the pricing reform of slower revenue growth but it comes with improved margins CIRC

said on May 11 that the combined ratio for auto insurance in the pilot regions was 94 in 1Q16 with a yoy increase of 113 in

premium income compared to 121 nationwide The reform kicked off last June in six pilot regions and it expanded to twelve

in January By the end of June the number of pilot regions will be increased to eighteen At this stage CIRC sees that the

underwriting risks have not been fully reflected in the pricing yet implying that the degree of insurersrsquo pricing autonomy still

has room to grow In addition we see less room for fiercer competition on the expense side given potential capital constraints

for PampC insurers

Given Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to remain low and with the full implementation of C-ROSS we

expect that insurersrsquo funds will continue to favour non-standard investment instruments among which we believe

debt schemes are likely to be the type with highest growth potential In short our viewpoint is that Chinarsquos government

bond yields are expected to hover around current low levels on the back of 1 Chinarsquos weak macroeconomic growth outlook

Albeit our macro team does not foresee a hard landing scenario for Chinarsquos economy current macro readings imply the lack of

upward catalysts which favours risk-free assets such as sovereign bonds together with the tamed inflation expectation and th

expected decelerating credit growth in 2H16 we see Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to be at low levels 2

Chinarsquos expansionary fiscal policy may induce a greater supply of sovereign bonds We see the ongoing supply-side reforms

may also be achieved by the introduction of expansionary fiscal policies which is likely to result in higher deficits and in turn

will translate into a greater supply of sovereign bonds suppressing the bond yields Putting the dropping bond yields into

context we see insurersrsquo net investment yields on bond securities may have more downside potential The rational reaction for

insurers will be investing more funds in higher yield investment instruments Among the non-standard investment instruments

of commercial bank WMP debt schemes AM plans and trust products We believe debt schemes could be the ldquosafest betrdquo for

insurers based on 1 less capital consumption under C-ROSS and 2 the supply of certain beneficiary rights related trust

products may decrease because of the release of Document 82 by CBRC in May requiring Chinese commercial banks to

properly conduct provisioning for moving certain credit assets out of their balance sheets The former argument is more

apparent as under C-ROSS quantifiable market risk category each investment instrument has been assigned to a minimum

capital requirement factor (~less 10) the higher the factor the more capital consuming that instrument is As the table below

shows debt schemes have lower risk factors than that of for trust products and AM plans Moreover we are optimistic about

the general supply for debt schemes since the underlying investments are normally large government-led infrastructure

projects We think the aforementioned expansionary fiscal policy will bring sizable investments in this field accommodating

insurer fund investment appetite

Sector valuation where are we now and what is in the price

Sector valuation has been depressed following the abrupt sell-off at the beginning of the year and currently it points

to the pre-bull market levels seen in November 2014 Sector valuation has returned to the pre-bull market levels in

November 2014 Historical PEV now stands below 100x and it shows a fairly long journey to reach the post global financial

crisis level of the 7-year average of 173x During a 7-year observation horizon sector valuation hit a trough in February this

year recording a reading of 071x historical PEV Regarding the historical PEV annual range it has quite narrow and is not

dispersed even when compared to 2012 implying a lack of positive price catalysts and discouraging investment sentiments

Historical stock prices of Hong Kong listed Chinese insurance companies have a certain degree of correlation with

Chinese government bond yields We believe that the Chinese government bond yields have a certain degree of

predictability power on the stock prices of our covered insurers from a trading perspective On a fundamental account a higher

bond yield may imply a higher net investment yield for new insurersrsquo funds investing in bond securities Moreover as investing

in insurance companies is often a form of macro play rising government bond yields may suggest improving macroeconomic

conditions and rising risk appetites in the market (~ selling risk free assets and buying risk assets) which could help explaining

the somewhat positive correlation

We believe the market is currently pricing in an averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered

insurers which is below the investment return in their respective embedded value assumptions We utilise EV

sensitivity tables from each covered insurer to derive this implied market price expectation regarding 2016 investment return

Our analysis shows that the market seems particularly pessimistic about this yearrsquos investment performance for New China

Life which it implies a reduction of 220 bps from the baseline of 50

Downgrade on Future Investment Performance Pressure

投资表现压力引致评级下调

1Q16 EPS was down 58 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased claims amp expenses Investment income (ex FV gains) was

down 224 yoy Net the investment yield was 500 pa but the

comprehensive investment yield was merely 369 pa on poor A-share

performance during the period

We see the Companyrsquos earnings growth to be anaemic on possible

weakened investment performance and rising insurance reserve

charges We see China Lifersquos investment asset allocation is in a worse

position compared to listed peers and we expect that the potential rise in

the ldquocostrdquo of new policies may weigh on the long-term investment return

assumption in the EV We lower 2016F EPS by 163 on a downward

adjustment in full-year investment income

We downgrade the investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo on future

investment performance pressure with a trimmed target price of HKD

1986 per share We value China Life by applying NBV multiple based

valuation technique with a 2016F NBV multiple of 59x and an assumed

COE of 105 Key downside risk includes 1 investment performance

pressure on new insurer funds and 2 unexpected A-share market

综合收益率年化仅为 369主要原因是 A 股市场的不景气所致

由于可能出现的不佳投资表现和保险准备金的上升我们预期公司未来盈利增长较为疲

由于投资表现压力我们将公司的投资评级下调至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 1986

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

Which life insurer is best positioned under current operating conditions

Our assessment suggests that the life insurance business of CPIC New China Life and CTIH have above par strength

and are comparatively better positioned under current operating conditions In the current low-interest rate environment

in China investorsrsquo key concern about Chinarsquos insurance sector centres around the ldquointerest rate spreadrdquo between the ldquocostrdquo of

insurance policies and the yields on investment assets We have frequently heard that investors are questioning the

sustainability and appropriateness of some insurersrsquo long-term investment yield assumptions given the dropping bond yields

Theoretically speaking dropping bond yields bring headwind for life insurersrsquo earnings growth outlook on the grounds of 1

lower expected rate of return on new insurersrsquo funds and 2 an expected increase in insurance liabilities for traditional life

insurance products (~whose risk discount rates are referenced to Chinarsquos government bond yields) We introduce a score

sheet for our covered insurers attempting to provide a comprehensive assessment on their risk-return profiles thus we could

determine their overall strength and positioning The assessment comprises a number of evaluation metrics of risk discount

rates for the calculation of insurance liability the cost of recently launched life insurance policies normalised investment

performance product mix and insurance liability duration breakdown

Metric 1 Risk discount rates for calculating insurance liabilities under the financial reporting framework

The risk discount rates for traditional life insurance products showed a downward trend in 2015 reflecting the

lowering government bond yields The calculation of insurance liabilities is essential to life insurers when presenting their

profit loss positions The complexity associated to it not only lies in the actuarial analysis itself but also the choice of

calculation method depending on the end user Strictly speaking insurance liabilities can be calculated under statutory

solvency tax and financial reporting frameworks The former three frameworks normally comprise of unified pre-determined

assumptions that are set by CIRC with a greater degree of prudence than the last When insurers are preparing the financial

statements the assumptions particularly for the risk discount rates are set according to ldquobest-estimaterdquo principles reflecting

their respective business experiences Our covered insurers normally disclose a range of risk discount rates that they apply

during the respective reporting period For policies whose future benefits are not dependent on investment performances

typically traditional life insurance products their risk discount rates are referenced to a 750-day moving average of Chinarsquos

long-duration government bond yields According to company disclosures in 2015 while the risk discount rates for investment

featured policies remained largely unchanged the risk discount rates for traditional life insurance products however dropped

5-40 bps on a yoy basis

Metric 2 Gauging the ldquocostrdquo of insurance policies

The ldquocostrdquo of insurance policies in our view could be characterised by the disclosed guaranteed minimum and

monthly settlement interest rates on selected universal life insurance products which ranges from 430 to 580

pa for the recently launched products by the covered insurers Due to the complexity of the pricing process of an

insurance policy the true ldquocostrdquo of that policy in a numerical form is less directly observable than the investment yields

achieved on investment instruments such as bond securities Considering the most important profit driver for Chinarsquos insurers

is the spread income ie the difference between actual versus assumed investment yield on insurersrsquo funds we attempt to

gauge the funding cost by observing the monthly settlement interest rates on universal life insurance products Our sample

products were selected based on their recent CIRC registration dates and whether they were the key product during the

jumpstart season

Metric 3 Estimation of net investment yield under normalised investment return assumptions

Under unified normalised investment return assumptions our analysis shows that current investment mix for the

covered insurers will produce an estimated net investment yield ranging between 317 and 361 We have

conducted a comprehensive comparison of investment asset mix for the covered insurers and have applied unified normalised

investment return assumptions in order to determine the investment management ability based on static results In this

assessment Ping An CPIC New China Life and CTIHrsquos estimated net investment yield could be regarded as outperforming

whereas China Life and PICC Life posted underperforming results

Metric 4 Product mix

China Life and Ping An has comparatively higher proportion of universal life insurance products in the product mix

with an estimated percentage of 104 and 285 in 2015 respectively Selling universal life insurance products is the

usual tactic for volume play for Chinarsquos insurers especially during the jumpstart season in the first quarter of the year Although

traditional life insurance products have gained some traction after its pricing reform in 2013 universal life insurance products

remain a key important product type for the yield-starved customers We continue to employ our ldquoquasi-premiumsrdquo terminology

for the measurement of market share breakdown by product types Our analysis shows that on the sector front premiums

from universal life insurance products continued to account for around 32 in the total quasi-premiums in 2015 and this

percentage rose to around 41 in 1Q16 Even on a yoy comparison the percentage rose around 18 ppts suggesting heavier

reliance on investment oriented products for cash flow generation As for our covered insurers a few of them had sold

universal life insurance products as riders attached to the basic policy for the purpose of yield enhancement during this yearrsquos

Metric 5 Duration analysis of insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities

A considerable portion of our insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities had a duration of over 5 years

Based on the covered insurersrsquo 2015 annual disclosures we find that their insurance and investment contract liabilities on an

aggregate level were fairly long-dated 73 of the insurance and investment contract liabilities on average had a duration of

over 5 years We believe there is a growing trend for major listed life insurers to stretch their insurance and investment

contract liabilities and the motivation for which in our view may stem from the following 1 new products tend to have a longer

product duration as the regulator promotes the sales of long-duration and protection oriented products and 2 life insurersrsquo

own initiative in order to battle the low-interest rate environment At a closer look at our covered insurers due to the

differences in business scope pure life insurers such as China Life and New China Life most of their insurance and durations

of investment contract liabilities were over 5 years whereas composite insurance companies like the rest (~Ping An CPIC

PICC Group and CTIH) had the proportion of longer duration liabilities diluted to some extent because of the inclusion of PampC

Life and PampC insurance sector near-term outlook

We expect the growth trajectory for Chinarsquos life insurance sector premium income to be flattened in 2H16 on the

grounds of tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life insurance products and increasing divergence in

product distribution strategies among life insurers Despite the high base in 2015 Chinarsquos life insurance sector ytd

premium income still managed to deliver an astonishing yoy gain of 524 in 1Q16 which is mainly attributed to the

performance achieved during this yearrsquos jumpstart season The competitive landscape of the sector however remained fairly

concentrated given the usual ldquoBig 4rdquo life insurers still taking up a combined market share of approximately 481 Chinese

commercial banks-backed insurers and some unlisted ones experienced rapid growth in premium income by utilising their

respective advantages in distribution channels and product offerings Looking ahead we think the growth trajectory in 2H16 is

expected to be flattened to some extent mainly on the back of CIRCrsquos tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life

insurance products and increasing divergence in product distribution strategies among life insurers (Please refer to our

previous comment CIRC Tightens the Sale of Short Medium Duration High Cash Value Life Insurance Products We Expect

Our Covered Insurers to Have Moderate Exposure)

We believe that the former will have a more adverse impact on the premium income growth outlook for new comers in the

sector with less diversified product portfolios and the latter is concluded based on our observation of the product shifts for

some of our covered life insurers We see a growing trend for the listed life insurers to employ a differentiated product

distribution strategy which was demonstrated by New China Lifersquos unusual 104 yoy decline in premium income during the

jumpstart season Nevertheless we still see that the sector premium income posted a strong yoy growth rate of around 35 in

The continuation of the commercial auto insurance pricing reform in China is expected to further weigh on generic

pricing rates but we believe the underwriting profit margin will be further improved Recently released operating data

by the CIRC reaffirmed our views on the pricing reform of slower revenue growth but it comes with improved margins CIRC

said on May 11 that the combined ratio for auto insurance in the pilot regions was 94 in 1Q16 with a yoy increase of 113 in

premium income compared to 121 nationwide The reform kicked off last June in six pilot regions and it expanded to twelve

in January By the end of June the number of pilot regions will be increased to eighteen At this stage CIRC sees that the

underwriting risks have not been fully reflected in the pricing yet implying that the degree of insurersrsquo pricing autonomy still

has room to grow In addition we see less room for fiercer competition on the expense side given potential capital constraints

for PampC insurers

Given Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to remain low and with the full implementation of C-ROSS we

expect that insurersrsquo funds will continue to favour non-standard investment instruments among which we believe

debt schemes are likely to be the type with highest growth potential In short our viewpoint is that Chinarsquos government

bond yields are expected to hover around current low levels on the back of 1 Chinarsquos weak macroeconomic growth outlook

Albeit our macro team does not foresee a hard landing scenario for Chinarsquos economy current macro readings imply the lack of

upward catalysts which favours risk-free assets such as sovereign bonds together with the tamed inflation expectation and th

expected decelerating credit growth in 2H16 we see Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to be at low levels 2

Chinarsquos expansionary fiscal policy may induce a greater supply of sovereign bonds We see the ongoing supply-side reforms

may also be achieved by the introduction of expansionary fiscal policies which is likely to result in higher deficits and in turn

will translate into a greater supply of sovereign bonds suppressing the bond yields Putting the dropping bond yields into

context we see insurersrsquo net investment yields on bond securities may have more downside potential The rational reaction for

insurers will be investing more funds in higher yield investment instruments Among the non-standard investment instruments

of commercial bank WMP debt schemes AM plans and trust products We believe debt schemes could be the ldquosafest betrdquo for

insurers based on 1 less capital consumption under C-ROSS and 2 the supply of certain beneficiary rights related trust

products may decrease because of the release of Document 82 by CBRC in May requiring Chinese commercial banks to

properly conduct provisioning for moving certain credit assets out of their balance sheets The former argument is more

apparent as under C-ROSS quantifiable market risk category each investment instrument has been assigned to a minimum

capital requirement factor (~less 10) the higher the factor the more capital consuming that instrument is As the table below

shows debt schemes have lower risk factors than that of for trust products and AM plans Moreover we are optimistic about

the general supply for debt schemes since the underlying investments are normally large government-led infrastructure

projects We think the aforementioned expansionary fiscal policy will bring sizable investments in this field accommodating

insurer fund investment appetite

Sector valuation where are we now and what is in the price

Sector valuation has been depressed following the abrupt sell-off at the beginning of the year and currently it points

to the pre-bull market levels seen in November 2014 Sector valuation has returned to the pre-bull market levels in

November 2014 Historical PEV now stands below 100x and it shows a fairly long journey to reach the post global financial

crisis level of the 7-year average of 173x During a 7-year observation horizon sector valuation hit a trough in February this

year recording a reading of 071x historical PEV Regarding the historical PEV annual range it has quite narrow and is not

dispersed even when compared to 2012 implying a lack of positive price catalysts and discouraging investment sentiments

Historical stock prices of Hong Kong listed Chinese insurance companies have a certain degree of correlation with

Chinese government bond yields We believe that the Chinese government bond yields have a certain degree of

predictability power on the stock prices of our covered insurers from a trading perspective On a fundamental account a higher

bond yield may imply a higher net investment yield for new insurersrsquo funds investing in bond securities Moreover as investing

in insurance companies is often a form of macro play rising government bond yields may suggest improving macroeconomic

conditions and rising risk appetites in the market (~ selling risk free assets and buying risk assets) which could help explaining

the somewhat positive correlation

We believe the market is currently pricing in an averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered

insurers which is below the investment return in their respective embedded value assumptions We utilise EV

sensitivity tables from each covered insurer to derive this implied market price expectation regarding 2016 investment return

Our analysis shows that the market seems particularly pessimistic about this yearrsquos investment performance for New China

Life which it implies a reduction of 220 bps from the baseline of 50

Downgrade on Future Investment Performance Pressure

投资表现压力引致评级下调

1Q16 EPS was down 58 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased claims amp expenses Investment income (ex FV gains) was

down 224 yoy Net the investment yield was 500 pa but the

comprehensive investment yield was merely 369 pa on poor A-share

performance during the period

We see the Companyrsquos earnings growth to be anaemic on possible

weakened investment performance and rising insurance reserve

charges We see China Lifersquos investment asset allocation is in a worse

position compared to listed peers and we expect that the potential rise in

the ldquocostrdquo of new policies may weigh on the long-term investment return

assumption in the EV We lower 2016F EPS by 163 on a downward

adjustment in full-year investment income

We downgrade the investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo on future

investment performance pressure with a trimmed target price of HKD

1986 per share We value China Life by applying NBV multiple based

valuation technique with a 2016F NBV multiple of 59x and an assumed

COE of 105 Key downside risk includes 1 investment performance

pressure on new insurer funds and 2 unexpected A-share market

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

价值乘数并假设股本成本为 122

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

Which life insurer is best positioned under current operating conditions

Our assessment suggests that the life insurance business of CPIC New China Life and CTIH have above par strength

and are comparatively better positioned under current operating conditions In the current low-interest rate environment

in China investorsrsquo key concern about Chinarsquos insurance sector centres around the ldquointerest rate spreadrdquo between the ldquocostrdquo of

insurance policies and the yields on investment assets We have frequently heard that investors are questioning the

sustainability and appropriateness of some insurersrsquo long-term investment yield assumptions given the dropping bond yields

Theoretically speaking dropping bond yields bring headwind for life insurersrsquo earnings growth outlook on the grounds of 1

lower expected rate of return on new insurersrsquo funds and 2 an expected increase in insurance liabilities for traditional life

insurance products (~whose risk discount rates are referenced to Chinarsquos government bond yields) We introduce a score

sheet for our covered insurers attempting to provide a comprehensive assessment on their risk-return profiles thus we could

determine their overall strength and positioning The assessment comprises a number of evaluation metrics of risk discount

rates for the calculation of insurance liability the cost of recently launched life insurance policies normalised investment

performance product mix and insurance liability duration breakdown

Metric 1 Risk discount rates for calculating insurance liabilities under the financial reporting framework

The risk discount rates for traditional life insurance products showed a downward trend in 2015 reflecting the

lowering government bond yields The calculation of insurance liabilities is essential to life insurers when presenting their

profit loss positions The complexity associated to it not only lies in the actuarial analysis itself but also the choice of

calculation method depending on the end user Strictly speaking insurance liabilities can be calculated under statutory

solvency tax and financial reporting frameworks The former three frameworks normally comprise of unified pre-determined

assumptions that are set by CIRC with a greater degree of prudence than the last When insurers are preparing the financial

statements the assumptions particularly for the risk discount rates are set according to ldquobest-estimaterdquo principles reflecting

their respective business experiences Our covered insurers normally disclose a range of risk discount rates that they apply

during the respective reporting period For policies whose future benefits are not dependent on investment performances

typically traditional life insurance products their risk discount rates are referenced to a 750-day moving average of Chinarsquos

long-duration government bond yields According to company disclosures in 2015 while the risk discount rates for investment

featured policies remained largely unchanged the risk discount rates for traditional life insurance products however dropped

5-40 bps on a yoy basis

Metric 2 Gauging the ldquocostrdquo of insurance policies

The ldquocostrdquo of insurance policies in our view could be characterised by the disclosed guaranteed minimum and

monthly settlement interest rates on selected universal life insurance products which ranges from 430 to 580

pa for the recently launched products by the covered insurers Due to the complexity of the pricing process of an

insurance policy the true ldquocostrdquo of that policy in a numerical form is less directly observable than the investment yields

achieved on investment instruments such as bond securities Considering the most important profit driver for Chinarsquos insurers

is the spread income ie the difference between actual versus assumed investment yield on insurersrsquo funds we attempt to

gauge the funding cost by observing the monthly settlement interest rates on universal life insurance products Our sample

products were selected based on their recent CIRC registration dates and whether they were the key product during the

jumpstart season

Metric 3 Estimation of net investment yield under normalised investment return assumptions

Under unified normalised investment return assumptions our analysis shows that current investment mix for the

covered insurers will produce an estimated net investment yield ranging between 317 and 361 We have

conducted a comprehensive comparison of investment asset mix for the covered insurers and have applied unified normalised

investment return assumptions in order to determine the investment management ability based on static results In this

assessment Ping An CPIC New China Life and CTIHrsquos estimated net investment yield could be regarded as outperforming

whereas China Life and PICC Life posted underperforming results

Metric 4 Product mix

China Life and Ping An has comparatively higher proportion of universal life insurance products in the product mix

with an estimated percentage of 104 and 285 in 2015 respectively Selling universal life insurance products is the

usual tactic for volume play for Chinarsquos insurers especially during the jumpstart season in the first quarter of the year Although

traditional life insurance products have gained some traction after its pricing reform in 2013 universal life insurance products

remain a key important product type for the yield-starved customers We continue to employ our ldquoquasi-premiumsrdquo terminology

for the measurement of market share breakdown by product types Our analysis shows that on the sector front premiums

from universal life insurance products continued to account for around 32 in the total quasi-premiums in 2015 and this

percentage rose to around 41 in 1Q16 Even on a yoy comparison the percentage rose around 18 ppts suggesting heavier

reliance on investment oriented products for cash flow generation As for our covered insurers a few of them had sold

universal life insurance products as riders attached to the basic policy for the purpose of yield enhancement during this yearrsquos

Metric 5 Duration analysis of insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities

A considerable portion of our insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities had a duration of over 5 years

Based on the covered insurersrsquo 2015 annual disclosures we find that their insurance and investment contract liabilities on an

aggregate level were fairly long-dated 73 of the insurance and investment contract liabilities on average had a duration of

over 5 years We believe there is a growing trend for major listed life insurers to stretch their insurance and investment

contract liabilities and the motivation for which in our view may stem from the following 1 new products tend to have a longer

product duration as the regulator promotes the sales of long-duration and protection oriented products and 2 life insurersrsquo

own initiative in order to battle the low-interest rate environment At a closer look at our covered insurers due to the

differences in business scope pure life insurers such as China Life and New China Life most of their insurance and durations

of investment contract liabilities were over 5 years whereas composite insurance companies like the rest (~Ping An CPIC

PICC Group and CTIH) had the proportion of longer duration liabilities diluted to some extent because of the inclusion of PampC

Life and PampC insurance sector near-term outlook

We expect the growth trajectory for Chinarsquos life insurance sector premium income to be flattened in 2H16 on the

grounds of tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life insurance products and increasing divergence in

product distribution strategies among life insurers Despite the high base in 2015 Chinarsquos life insurance sector ytd

premium income still managed to deliver an astonishing yoy gain of 524 in 1Q16 which is mainly attributed to the

performance achieved during this yearrsquos jumpstart season The competitive landscape of the sector however remained fairly

concentrated given the usual ldquoBig 4rdquo life insurers still taking up a combined market share of approximately 481 Chinese

commercial banks-backed insurers and some unlisted ones experienced rapid growth in premium income by utilising their

respective advantages in distribution channels and product offerings Looking ahead we think the growth trajectory in 2H16 is

expected to be flattened to some extent mainly on the back of CIRCrsquos tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life

insurance products and increasing divergence in product distribution strategies among life insurers (Please refer to our

previous comment CIRC Tightens the Sale of Short Medium Duration High Cash Value Life Insurance Products We Expect

Our Covered Insurers to Have Moderate Exposure)

We believe that the former will have a more adverse impact on the premium income growth outlook for new comers in the

sector with less diversified product portfolios and the latter is concluded based on our observation of the product shifts for

some of our covered life insurers We see a growing trend for the listed life insurers to employ a differentiated product

distribution strategy which was demonstrated by New China Lifersquos unusual 104 yoy decline in premium income during the

jumpstart season Nevertheless we still see that the sector premium income posted a strong yoy growth rate of around 35 in

2016

The continuation of the commercial auto insurance pricing reform in China is expected to further weigh on generic

pricing rates but we believe the underwriting profit margin will be further improved Recently released operating data

by the CIRC reaffirmed our views on the pricing reform of slower revenue growth but it comes with improved margins CIRC

said on May 11 that the combined ratio for auto insurance in the pilot regions was 94 in 1Q16 with a yoy increase of 113 in

premium income compared to 121 nationwide The reform kicked off last June in six pilot regions and it expanded to twelve

in January By the end of June the number of pilot regions will be increased to eighteen At this stage CIRC sees that the

underwriting risks have not been fully reflected in the pricing yet implying that the degree of insurersrsquo pricing autonomy still

has room to grow In addition we see less room for fiercer competition on the expense side given potential capital constraints

for PampC insurers

Given Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to remain low and with the full implementation of C-ROSS we

expect that insurersrsquo funds will continue to favour non-standard investment instruments among which we believe

debt schemes are likely to be the type with highest growth potential In short our viewpoint is that Chinarsquos government

bond yields are expected to hover around current low levels on the back of 1 Chinarsquos weak macroeconomic growth outlook

Albeit our macro team does not foresee a hard landing scenario for Chinarsquos economy current macro readings imply the lack of

upward catalysts which favours risk-free assets such as sovereign bonds together with the tamed inflation expectation and th

expected decelerating credit growth in 2H16 we see Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to be at low levels 2

Chinarsquos expansionary fiscal policy may induce a greater supply of sovereign bonds We see the ongoing supply-side reforms

may also be achieved by the introduction of expansionary fiscal policies which is likely to result in higher deficits and in turn

will translate into a greater supply of sovereign bonds suppressing the bond yields Putting the dropping bond yields into

context we see insurersrsquo net investment yields on bond securities may have more downside potential The rational reaction for

insurers will be investing more funds in higher yield investment instruments Among the non-standard investment instruments

of commercial bank WMP debt schemes AM plans and trust products We believe debt schemes could be the ldquosafest betrdquo for

insurers based on 1 less capital consumption under C-ROSS and 2 the supply of certain beneficiary rights related trust

products may decrease because of the release of Document 82 by CBRC in May requiring Chinese commercial banks to

properly conduct provisioning for moving certain credit assets out of their balance sheets The former argument is more

apparent as under C-ROSS quantifiable market risk category each investment instrument has been assigned to a minimum

capital requirement factor (~less 10) the higher the factor the more capital consuming that instrument is As the table below

shows debt schemes have lower risk factors than that of for trust products and AM plans Moreover we are optimistic about

the general supply for debt schemes since the underlying investments are normally large government-led infrastructure

projects We think the aforementioned expansionary fiscal policy will bring sizable investments in this field accommodating

insurer fund investment appetite

Sector valuation where are we now and what is in the price

Sector valuation has been depressed following the abrupt sell-off at the beginning of the year and currently it points

to the pre-bull market levels seen in November 2014 Sector valuation has returned to the pre-bull market levels in

November 2014 Historical PEV now stands below 100x and it shows a fairly long journey to reach the post global financial

crisis level of the 7-year average of 173x During a 7-year observation horizon sector valuation hit a trough in February this

year recording a reading of 071x historical PEV Regarding the historical PEV annual range it has quite narrow and is not

dispersed even when compared to 2012 implying a lack of positive price catalysts and discouraging investment sentiments

Historical stock prices of Hong Kong listed Chinese insurance companies have a certain degree of correlation with

Chinese government bond yields We believe that the Chinese government bond yields have a certain degree of

predictability power on the stock prices of our covered insurers from a trading perspective On a fundamental account a higher

bond yield may imply a higher net investment yield for new insurersrsquo funds investing in bond securities Moreover as investing

in insurance companies is often a form of macro play rising government bond yields may suggest improving macroeconomic

conditions and rising risk appetites in the market (~ selling risk free assets and buying risk assets) which could help explaining

the somewhat positive correlation

We believe the market is currently pricing in an averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered

insurers which is below the investment return in their respective embedded value assumptions We utilise EV

sensitivity tables from each covered insurer to derive this implied market price expectation regarding 2016 investment return

Our analysis shows that the market seems particularly pessimistic about this yearrsquos investment performance for New China

Life which it implies a reduction of 220 bps from the baseline of 50

Downgrade on Future Investment Performance Pressure

投资表现压力引致评级下调

1Q16 EPS was down 58 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased claims amp expenses Investment income (ex FV gains) was

down 224 yoy Net the investment yield was 500 pa but the

comprehensive investment yield was merely 369 pa on poor A-share

performance during the period

We see the Companyrsquos earnings growth to be anaemic on possible

weakened investment performance and rising insurance reserve

charges We see China Lifersquos investment asset allocation is in a worse

position compared to listed peers and we expect that the potential rise in

the ldquocostrdquo of new policies may weigh on the long-term investment return

assumption in the EV We lower 2016F EPS by 163 on a downward

adjustment in full-year investment income

We downgrade the investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo on future

investment performance pressure with a trimmed target price of HKD

1986 per share We value China Life by applying NBV multiple based

valuation technique with a 2016F NBV multiple of 59x and an assumed

COE of 105 Key downside risk includes 1 investment performance

pressure on new insurer funds and 2 unexpected A-share market

由于投资表现压力我们将公司的投资评级下调至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 1986

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

价值乘数并假设股本成本为 122

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

Which life insurer is best positioned under current operating conditions

Our assessment suggests that the life insurance business of CPIC New China Life and CTIH have above par strength

and are comparatively better positioned under current operating conditions In the current low-interest rate environment

in China investorsrsquo key concern about Chinarsquos insurance sector centres around the ldquointerest rate spreadrdquo between the ldquocostrdquo of

insurance policies and the yields on investment assets We have frequently heard that investors are questioning the

sustainability and appropriateness of some insurersrsquo long-term investment yield assumptions given the dropping bond yields

Theoretically speaking dropping bond yields bring headwind for life insurersrsquo earnings growth outlook on the grounds of 1

lower expected rate of return on new insurersrsquo funds and 2 an expected increase in insurance liabilities for traditional life

insurance products (~whose risk discount rates are referenced to Chinarsquos government bond yields) We introduce a score

sheet for our covered insurers attempting to provide a comprehensive assessment on their risk-return profiles thus we could

determine their overall strength and positioning The assessment comprises a number of evaluation metrics of risk discount

rates for the calculation of insurance liability the cost of recently launched life insurance policies normalised investment

performance product mix and insurance liability duration breakdown

Metric 1 Risk discount rates for calculating insurance liabilities under the financial reporting framework

The risk discount rates for traditional life insurance products showed a downward trend in 2015 reflecting the

lowering government bond yields The calculation of insurance liabilities is essential to life insurers when presenting their

profit loss positions The complexity associated to it not only lies in the actuarial analysis itself but also the choice of

calculation method depending on the end user Strictly speaking insurance liabilities can be calculated under statutory

solvency tax and financial reporting frameworks The former three frameworks normally comprise of unified pre-determined

assumptions that are set by CIRC with a greater degree of prudence than the last When insurers are preparing the financial

statements the assumptions particularly for the risk discount rates are set according to ldquobest-estimaterdquo principles reflecting

their respective business experiences Our covered insurers normally disclose a range of risk discount rates that they apply

during the respective reporting period For policies whose future benefits are not dependent on investment performances

typically traditional life insurance products their risk discount rates are referenced to a 750-day moving average of Chinarsquos

long-duration government bond yields According to company disclosures in 2015 while the risk discount rates for investment

featured policies remained largely unchanged the risk discount rates for traditional life insurance products however dropped

5-40 bps on a yoy basis

Metric 2 Gauging the ldquocostrdquo of insurance policies

The ldquocostrdquo of insurance policies in our view could be characterised by the disclosed guaranteed minimum and

monthly settlement interest rates on selected universal life insurance products which ranges from 430 to 580

pa for the recently launched products by the covered insurers Due to the complexity of the pricing process of an

insurance policy the true ldquocostrdquo of that policy in a numerical form is less directly observable than the investment yields

achieved on investment instruments such as bond securities Considering the most important profit driver for Chinarsquos insurers

is the spread income ie the difference between actual versus assumed investment yield on insurersrsquo funds we attempt to

gauge the funding cost by observing the monthly settlement interest rates on universal life insurance products Our sample

products were selected based on their recent CIRC registration dates and whether they were the key product during the

jumpstart season

Metric 3 Estimation of net investment yield under normalised investment return assumptions

Under unified normalised investment return assumptions our analysis shows that current investment mix for the

covered insurers will produce an estimated net investment yield ranging between 317 and 361 We have

conducted a comprehensive comparison of investment asset mix for the covered insurers and have applied unified normalised

investment return assumptions in order to determine the investment management ability based on static results In this

assessment Ping An CPIC New China Life and CTIHrsquos estimated net investment yield could be regarded as outperforming

whereas China Life and PICC Life posted underperforming results

Metric 4 Product mix

China Life and Ping An has comparatively higher proportion of universal life insurance products in the product mix

with an estimated percentage of 104 and 285 in 2015 respectively Selling universal life insurance products is the

usual tactic for volume play for Chinarsquos insurers especially during the jumpstart season in the first quarter of the year Although

traditional life insurance products have gained some traction after its pricing reform in 2013 universal life insurance products

remain a key important product type for the yield-starved customers We continue to employ our ldquoquasi-premiumsrdquo terminology

for the measurement of market share breakdown by product types Our analysis shows that on the sector front premiums

from universal life insurance products continued to account for around 32 in the total quasi-premiums in 2015 and this

percentage rose to around 41 in 1Q16 Even on a yoy comparison the percentage rose around 18 ppts suggesting heavier

reliance on investment oriented products for cash flow generation As for our covered insurers a few of them had sold

universal life insurance products as riders attached to the basic policy for the purpose of yield enhancement during this yearrsquos

Metric 5 Duration analysis of insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities

A considerable portion of our insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities had a duration of over 5 years

Based on the covered insurersrsquo 2015 annual disclosures we find that their insurance and investment contract liabilities on an

aggregate level were fairly long-dated 73 of the insurance and investment contract liabilities on average had a duration of

over 5 years We believe there is a growing trend for major listed life insurers to stretch their insurance and investment

contract liabilities and the motivation for which in our view may stem from the following 1 new products tend to have a longer

product duration as the regulator promotes the sales of long-duration and protection oriented products and 2 life insurersrsquo

own initiative in order to battle the low-interest rate environment At a closer look at our covered insurers due to the

differences in business scope pure life insurers such as China Life and New China Life most of their insurance and durations

of investment contract liabilities were over 5 years whereas composite insurance companies like the rest (~Ping An CPIC

PICC Group and CTIH) had the proportion of longer duration liabilities diluted to some extent because of the inclusion of PampC

Life and PampC insurance sector near-term outlook

We expect the growth trajectory for Chinarsquos life insurance sector premium income to be flattened in 2H16 on the

grounds of tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life insurance products and increasing divergence in

product distribution strategies among life insurers Despite the high base in 2015 Chinarsquos life insurance sector ytd

premium income still managed to deliver an astonishing yoy gain of 524 in 1Q16 which is mainly attributed to the

performance achieved during this yearrsquos jumpstart season The competitive landscape of the sector however remained fairly

concentrated given the usual ldquoBig 4rdquo life insurers still taking up a combined market share of approximately 481 Chinese

commercial banks-backed insurers and some unlisted ones experienced rapid growth in premium income by utilising their

respective advantages in distribution channels and product offerings Looking ahead we think the growth trajectory in 2H16 is

expected to be flattened to some extent mainly on the back of CIRCrsquos tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life

insurance products and increasing divergence in product distribution strategies among life insurers (Please refer to our

previous comment CIRC Tightens the Sale of Short Medium Duration High Cash Value Life Insurance Products We Expect

Our Covered Insurers to Have Moderate Exposure)

We believe that the former will have a more adverse impact on the premium income growth outlook for new comers in the

sector with less diversified product portfolios and the latter is concluded based on our observation of the product shifts for

some of our covered life insurers We see a growing trend for the listed life insurers to employ a differentiated product

distribution strategy which was demonstrated by New China Lifersquos unusual 104 yoy decline in premium income during the

jumpstart season Nevertheless we still see that the sector premium income posted a strong yoy growth rate of around 35 in

2016

The continuation of the commercial auto insurance pricing reform in China is expected to further weigh on generic

pricing rates but we believe the underwriting profit margin will be further improved Recently released operating data

by the CIRC reaffirmed our views on the pricing reform of slower revenue growth but it comes with improved margins CIRC

said on May 11 that the combined ratio for auto insurance in the pilot regions was 94 in 1Q16 with a yoy increase of 113 in

premium income compared to 121 nationwide The reform kicked off last June in six pilot regions and it expanded to twelve

in January By the end of June the number of pilot regions will be increased to eighteen At this stage CIRC sees that the

underwriting risks have not been fully reflected in the pricing yet implying that the degree of insurersrsquo pricing autonomy still

has room to grow In addition we see less room for fiercer competition on the expense side given potential capital constraints

for PampC insurers

Given Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to remain low and with the full implementation of C-ROSS we

expect that insurersrsquo funds will continue to favour non-standard investment instruments among which we believe

debt schemes are likely to be the type with highest growth potential In short our viewpoint is that Chinarsquos government

bond yields are expected to hover around current low levels on the back of 1 Chinarsquos weak macroeconomic growth outlook

Albeit our macro team does not foresee a hard landing scenario for Chinarsquos economy current macro readings imply the lack of

upward catalysts which favours risk-free assets such as sovereign bonds together with the tamed inflation expectation and th

expected decelerating credit growth in 2H16 we see Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to be at low levels 2

Chinarsquos expansionary fiscal policy may induce a greater supply of sovereign bonds We see the ongoing supply-side reforms

may also be achieved by the introduction of expansionary fiscal policies which is likely to result in higher deficits and in turn

will translate into a greater supply of sovereign bonds suppressing the bond yields Putting the dropping bond yields into

context we see insurersrsquo net investment yields on bond securities may have more downside potential The rational reaction for

insurers will be investing more funds in higher yield investment instruments Among the non-standard investment instruments

of commercial bank WMP debt schemes AM plans and trust products We believe debt schemes could be the ldquosafest betrdquo for

insurers based on 1 less capital consumption under C-ROSS and 2 the supply of certain beneficiary rights related trust

products may decrease because of the release of Document 82 by CBRC in May requiring Chinese commercial banks to

properly conduct provisioning for moving certain credit assets out of their balance sheets The former argument is more

apparent as under C-ROSS quantifiable market risk category each investment instrument has been assigned to a minimum

capital requirement factor (~less 10) the higher the factor the more capital consuming that instrument is As the table below

shows debt schemes have lower risk factors than that of for trust products and AM plans Moreover we are optimistic about

the general supply for debt schemes since the underlying investments are normally large government-led infrastructure

projects We think the aforementioned expansionary fiscal policy will bring sizable investments in this field accommodating

insurer fund investment appetite

Sector valuation where are we now and what is in the price

Sector valuation has been depressed following the abrupt sell-off at the beginning of the year and currently it points

to the pre-bull market levels seen in November 2014 Sector valuation has returned to the pre-bull market levels in

November 2014 Historical PEV now stands below 100x and it shows a fairly long journey to reach the post global financial

crisis level of the 7-year average of 173x During a 7-year observation horizon sector valuation hit a trough in February this

year recording a reading of 071x historical PEV Regarding the historical PEV annual range it has quite narrow and is not

dispersed even when compared to 2012 implying a lack of positive price catalysts and discouraging investment sentiments

Historical stock prices of Hong Kong listed Chinese insurance companies have a certain degree of correlation with

Chinese government bond yields We believe that the Chinese government bond yields have a certain degree of

predictability power on the stock prices of our covered insurers from a trading perspective On a fundamental account a higher

bond yield may imply a higher net investment yield for new insurersrsquo funds investing in bond securities Moreover as investing

in insurance companies is often a form of macro play rising government bond yields may suggest improving macroeconomic

conditions and rising risk appetites in the market (~ selling risk free assets and buying risk assets) which could help explaining

the somewhat positive correlation

We believe the market is currently pricing in an averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered

insurers which is below the investment return in their respective embedded value assumptions We utilise EV

sensitivity tables from each covered insurer to derive this implied market price expectation regarding 2016 investment return

Our analysis shows that the market seems particularly pessimistic about this yearrsquos investment performance for New China

Life which it implies a reduction of 220 bps from the baseline of 50

Downgrade on Future Investment Performance Pressure

投资表现压力引致评级下调

1Q16 EPS was down 58 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased claims amp expenses Investment income (ex FV gains) was

down 224 yoy Net the investment yield was 500 pa but the

comprehensive investment yield was merely 369 pa on poor A-share

performance during the period

We see the Companyrsquos earnings growth to be anaemic on possible

weakened investment performance and rising insurance reserve

charges We see China Lifersquos investment asset allocation is in a worse

position compared to listed peers and we expect that the potential rise in

the ldquocostrdquo of new policies may weigh on the long-term investment return

assumption in the EV We lower 2016F EPS by 163 on a downward

adjustment in full-year investment income

We downgrade the investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo on future

investment performance pressure with a trimmed target price of HKD

1986 per share We value China Life by applying NBV multiple based

valuation technique with a 2016F NBV multiple of 59x and an assumed

COE of 105 Key downside risk includes 1 investment performance

pressure on new insurer funds and 2 unexpected A-share market

投资收益(不含公允价值变动)同比下跌 224期末年化净投资收益率为 500但

综合收益率年化仅为 369主要原因是 A 股市场的不景气所致

由于可能出现的不佳投资表现和保险准备金的上升我们预期公司未来盈利增长较为疲

由于投资表现压力我们将公司的投资评级下调至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 1986

港元我们运用新业务价值乘数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 59 倍并假设

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

价值乘数并假设股本成本为 122

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

Metric 2 Gauging the ldquocostrdquo of insurance policies

The ldquocostrdquo of insurance policies in our view could be characterised by the disclosed guaranteed minimum and

monthly settlement interest rates on selected universal life insurance products which ranges from 430 to 580

pa for the recently launched products by the covered insurers Due to the complexity of the pricing process of an

insurance policy the true ldquocostrdquo of that policy in a numerical form is less directly observable than the investment yields

achieved on investment instruments such as bond securities Considering the most important profit driver for Chinarsquos insurers

is the spread income ie the difference between actual versus assumed investment yield on insurersrsquo funds we attempt to

gauge the funding cost by observing the monthly settlement interest rates on universal life insurance products Our sample

products were selected based on their recent CIRC registration dates and whether they were the key product during the

jumpstart season

Metric 3 Estimation of net investment yield under normalised investment return assumptions

Under unified normalised investment return assumptions our analysis shows that current investment mix for the

covered insurers will produce an estimated net investment yield ranging between 317 and 361 We have

conducted a comprehensive comparison of investment asset mix for the covered insurers and have applied unified normalised

investment return assumptions in order to determine the investment management ability based on static results In this

assessment Ping An CPIC New China Life and CTIHrsquos estimated net investment yield could be regarded as outperforming

whereas China Life and PICC Life posted underperforming results

Metric 4 Product mix

China Life and Ping An has comparatively higher proportion of universal life insurance products in the product mix

with an estimated percentage of 104 and 285 in 2015 respectively Selling universal life insurance products is the

usual tactic for volume play for Chinarsquos insurers especially during the jumpstart season in the first quarter of the year Although

traditional life insurance products have gained some traction after its pricing reform in 2013 universal life insurance products

remain a key important product type for the yield-starved customers We continue to employ our ldquoquasi-premiumsrdquo terminology

for the measurement of market share breakdown by product types Our analysis shows that on the sector front premiums

from universal life insurance products continued to account for around 32 in the total quasi-premiums in 2015 and this

percentage rose to around 41 in 1Q16 Even on a yoy comparison the percentage rose around 18 ppts suggesting heavier

reliance on investment oriented products for cash flow generation As for our covered insurers a few of them had sold

universal life insurance products as riders attached to the basic policy for the purpose of yield enhancement during this yearrsquos

jumpstart season

Metric 5 Duration analysis of insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities

A considerable portion of our insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities had a duration of over 5 years

Based on the covered insurersrsquo 2015 annual disclosures we find that their insurance and investment contract liabilities on an

aggregate level were fairly long-dated 73 of the insurance and investment contract liabilities on average had a duration of

over 5 years We believe there is a growing trend for major listed life insurers to stretch their insurance and investment

contract liabilities and the motivation for which in our view may stem from the following 1 new products tend to have a longer

product duration as the regulator promotes the sales of long-duration and protection oriented products and 2 life insurersrsquo

own initiative in order to battle the low-interest rate environment At a closer look at our covered insurers due to the

differences in business scope pure life insurers such as China Life and New China Life most of their insurance and durations

of investment contract liabilities were over 5 years whereas composite insurance companies like the rest (~Ping An CPIC

PICC Group and CTIH) had the proportion of longer duration liabilities diluted to some extent because of the inclusion of PampC

Life and PampC insurance sector near-term outlook

We expect the growth trajectory for Chinarsquos life insurance sector premium income to be flattened in 2H16 on the

grounds of tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life insurance products and increasing divergence in

product distribution strategies among life insurers Despite the high base in 2015 Chinarsquos life insurance sector ytd

premium income still managed to deliver an astonishing yoy gain of 524 in 1Q16 which is mainly attributed to the

performance achieved during this yearrsquos jumpstart season The competitive landscape of the sector however remained fairly

concentrated given the usual ldquoBig 4rdquo life insurers still taking up a combined market share of approximately 481 Chinese

commercial banks-backed insurers and some unlisted ones experienced rapid growth in premium income by utilising their

respective advantages in distribution channels and product offerings Looking ahead we think the growth trajectory in 2H16 is

expected to be flattened to some extent mainly on the back of CIRCrsquos tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life

insurance products and increasing divergence in product distribution strategies among life insurers (Please refer to our

previous comment CIRC Tightens the Sale of Short Medium Duration High Cash Value Life Insurance Products We Expect

Our Covered Insurers to Have Moderate Exposure)

We believe that the former will have a more adverse impact on the premium income growth outlook for new comers in the

sector with less diversified product portfolios and the latter is concluded based on our observation of the product shifts for

some of our covered life insurers We see a growing trend for the listed life insurers to employ a differentiated product

distribution strategy which was demonstrated by New China Lifersquos unusual 104 yoy decline in premium income during the

jumpstart season Nevertheless we still see that the sector premium income posted a strong yoy growth rate of around 35 in

2016

The continuation of the commercial auto insurance pricing reform in China is expected to further weigh on generic

pricing rates but we believe the underwriting profit margin will be further improved Recently released operating data

by the CIRC reaffirmed our views on the pricing reform of slower revenue growth but it comes with improved margins CIRC

said on May 11 that the combined ratio for auto insurance in the pilot regions was 94 in 1Q16 with a yoy increase of 113 in

premium income compared to 121 nationwide The reform kicked off last June in six pilot regions and it expanded to twelve

in January By the end of June the number of pilot regions will be increased to eighteen At this stage CIRC sees that the

underwriting risks have not been fully reflected in the pricing yet implying that the degree of insurersrsquo pricing autonomy still

has room to grow In addition we see less room for fiercer competition on the expense side given potential capital constraints

for PampC insurers

Given Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to remain low and with the full implementation of C-ROSS we

expect that insurersrsquo funds will continue to favour non-standard investment instruments among which we believe

debt schemes are likely to be the type with highest growth potential In short our viewpoint is that Chinarsquos government

bond yields are expected to hover around current low levels on the back of 1 Chinarsquos weak macroeconomic growth outlook

Albeit our macro team does not foresee a hard landing scenario for Chinarsquos economy current macro readings imply the lack of

upward catalysts which favours risk-free assets such as sovereign bonds together with the tamed inflation expectation and th

expected decelerating credit growth in 2H16 we see Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to be at low levels 2

Chinarsquos expansionary fiscal policy may induce a greater supply of sovereign bonds We see the ongoing supply-side reforms

may also be achieved by the introduction of expansionary fiscal policies which is likely to result in higher deficits and in turn

will translate into a greater supply of sovereign bonds suppressing the bond yields Putting the dropping bond yields into

context we see insurersrsquo net investment yields on bond securities may have more downside potential The rational reaction for

insurers will be investing more funds in higher yield investment instruments Among the non-standard investment instruments

of commercial bank WMP debt schemes AM plans and trust products We believe debt schemes could be the ldquosafest betrdquo for

insurers based on 1 less capital consumption under C-ROSS and 2 the supply of certain beneficiary rights related trust

products may decrease because of the release of Document 82 by CBRC in May requiring Chinese commercial banks to

properly conduct provisioning for moving certain credit assets out of their balance sheets The former argument is more

apparent as under C-ROSS quantifiable market risk category each investment instrument has been assigned to a minimum

capital requirement factor (~less 10) the higher the factor the more capital consuming that instrument is As the table below

shows debt schemes have lower risk factors than that of for trust products and AM plans Moreover we are optimistic about

the general supply for debt schemes since the underlying investments are normally large government-led infrastructure

projects We think the aforementioned expansionary fiscal policy will bring sizable investments in this field accommodating

insurer fund investment appetite

Sector valuation where are we now and what is in the price

Sector valuation has been depressed following the abrupt sell-off at the beginning of the year and currently it points

to the pre-bull market levels seen in November 2014 Sector valuation has returned to the pre-bull market levels in

November 2014 Historical PEV now stands below 100x and it shows a fairly long journey to reach the post global financial

crisis level of the 7-year average of 173x During a 7-year observation horizon sector valuation hit a trough in February this

year recording a reading of 071x historical PEV Regarding the historical PEV annual range it has quite narrow and is not

dispersed even when compared to 2012 implying a lack of positive price catalysts and discouraging investment sentiments

Historical stock prices of Hong Kong listed Chinese insurance companies have a certain degree of correlation with

Chinese government bond yields We believe that the Chinese government bond yields have a certain degree of

predictability power on the stock prices of our covered insurers from a trading perspective On a fundamental account a higher

bond yield may imply a higher net investment yield for new insurersrsquo funds investing in bond securities Moreover as investing

in insurance companies is often a form of macro play rising government bond yields may suggest improving macroeconomic

conditions and rising risk appetites in the market (~ selling risk free assets and buying risk assets) which could help explaining

the somewhat positive correlation

We believe the market is currently pricing in an averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered

Downgrade on Future Investment Performance Pressure

投资表现压力引致评级下调

1Q16 EPS was down 58 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased claims amp expenses Investment income (ex FV gains) was

down 224 yoy Net the investment yield was 500 pa but the

comprehensive investment yield was merely 369 pa on poor A-share

performance during the period

We see the Companyrsquos earnings growth to be anaemic on possible

weakened investment performance and rising insurance reserve

charges We see China Lifersquos investment asset allocation is in a worse

position compared to listed peers and we expect that the potential rise in

the ldquocostrdquo of new policies may weigh on the long-term investment return

assumption in the EV We lower 2016F EPS by 163 on a downward

adjustment in full-year investment income

We downgrade the investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo on future

investment performance pressure with a trimmed target price of HKD

1986 per share We value China Life by applying NBV multiple based

valuation technique with a 2016F NBV multiple of 59x and an assumed

COE of 105 Key downside risk includes 1 investment performance

pressure on new insurer funds and 2 unexpected A-share market

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

价值乘数并假设股本成本为 122

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

Metric 3 Estimation of net investment yield under normalised investment return assumptions

Under unified normalised investment return assumptions our analysis shows that current investment mix for the

covered insurers will produce an estimated net investment yield ranging between 317 and 361 We have

conducted a comprehensive comparison of investment asset mix for the covered insurers and have applied unified normalised

investment return assumptions in order to determine the investment management ability based on static results In this

assessment Ping An CPIC New China Life and CTIHrsquos estimated net investment yield could be regarded as outperforming

whereas China Life and PICC Life posted underperforming results

Metric 4 Product mix

China Life and Ping An has comparatively higher proportion of universal life insurance products in the product mix

with an estimated percentage of 104 and 285 in 2015 respectively Selling universal life insurance products is the

usual tactic for volume play for Chinarsquos insurers especially during the jumpstart season in the first quarter of the year Although

traditional life insurance products have gained some traction after its pricing reform in 2013 universal life insurance products

remain a key important product type for the yield-starved customers We continue to employ our ldquoquasi-premiumsrdquo terminology

for the measurement of market share breakdown by product types Our analysis shows that on the sector front premiums

from universal life insurance products continued to account for around 32 in the total quasi-premiums in 2015 and this

percentage rose to around 41 in 1Q16 Even on a yoy comparison the percentage rose around 18 ppts suggesting heavier

reliance on investment oriented products for cash flow generation As for our covered insurers a few of them had sold

universal life insurance products as riders attached to the basic policy for the purpose of yield enhancement during this yearrsquos

jumpstart season

Metric 5 Duration analysis of insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities

A considerable portion of our insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities had a duration of over 5 years

Based on the covered insurersrsquo 2015 annual disclosures we find that their insurance and investment contract liabilities on an

aggregate level were fairly long-dated 73 of the insurance and investment contract liabilities on average had a duration of

over 5 years We believe there is a growing trend for major listed life insurers to stretch their insurance and investment

contract liabilities and the motivation for which in our view may stem from the following 1 new products tend to have a longer

product duration as the regulator promotes the sales of long-duration and protection oriented products and 2 life insurersrsquo

own initiative in order to battle the low-interest rate environment At a closer look at our covered insurers due to the

differences in business scope pure life insurers such as China Life and New China Life most of their insurance and durations

of investment contract liabilities were over 5 years whereas composite insurance companies like the rest (~Ping An CPIC

PICC Group and CTIH) had the proportion of longer duration liabilities diluted to some extent because of the inclusion of PampC

Life and PampC insurance sector near-term outlook

We expect the growth trajectory for Chinarsquos life insurance sector premium income to be flattened in 2H16 on the

grounds of tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life insurance products and increasing divergence in

product distribution strategies among life insurers Despite the high base in 2015 Chinarsquos life insurance sector ytd

premium income still managed to deliver an astonishing yoy gain of 524 in 1Q16 which is mainly attributed to the

performance achieved during this yearrsquos jumpstart season The competitive landscape of the sector however remained fairly

concentrated given the usual ldquoBig 4rdquo life insurers still taking up a combined market share of approximately 481 Chinese

commercial banks-backed insurers and some unlisted ones experienced rapid growth in premium income by utilising their

respective advantages in distribution channels and product offerings Looking ahead we think the growth trajectory in 2H16 is

expected to be flattened to some extent mainly on the back of CIRCrsquos tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life

insurance products and increasing divergence in product distribution strategies among life insurers (Please refer to our

previous comment CIRC Tightens the Sale of Short Medium Duration High Cash Value Life Insurance Products We Expect

Our Covered Insurers to Have Moderate Exposure)

We believe that the former will have a more adverse impact on the premium income growth outlook for new comers in the

sector with less diversified product portfolios and the latter is concluded based on our observation of the product shifts for

some of our covered life insurers We see a growing trend for the listed life insurers to employ a differentiated product

distribution strategy which was demonstrated by New China Lifersquos unusual 104 yoy decline in premium income during the

jumpstart season Nevertheless we still see that the sector premium income posted a strong yoy growth rate of around 35 in

2016

The continuation of the commercial auto insurance pricing reform in China is expected to further weigh on generic

pricing rates but we believe the underwriting profit margin will be further improved Recently released operating data

by the CIRC reaffirmed our views on the pricing reform of slower revenue growth but it comes with improved margins CIRC

said on May 11 that the combined ratio for auto insurance in the pilot regions was 94 in 1Q16 with a yoy increase of 113 in

premium income compared to 121 nationwide The reform kicked off last June in six pilot regions and it expanded to twelve

in January By the end of June the number of pilot regions will be increased to eighteen At this stage CIRC sees that the

underwriting risks have not been fully reflected in the pricing yet implying that the degree of insurersrsquo pricing autonomy still

has room to grow In addition we see less room for fiercer competition on the expense side given potential capital constraints

for PampC insurers

Given Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to remain low and with the full implementation of C-ROSS we

expect that insurersrsquo funds will continue to favour non-standard investment instruments among which we believe

debt schemes are likely to be the type with highest growth potential In short our viewpoint is that Chinarsquos government

bond yields are expected to hover around current low levels on the back of 1 Chinarsquos weak macroeconomic growth outlook

Albeit our macro team does not foresee a hard landing scenario for Chinarsquos economy current macro readings imply the lack of

upward catalysts which favours risk-free assets such as sovereign bonds together with the tamed inflation expectation and th

expected decelerating credit growth in 2H16 we see Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to be at low levels 2

Chinarsquos expansionary fiscal policy may induce a greater supply of sovereign bonds We see the ongoing supply-side reforms

may also be achieved by the introduction of expansionary fiscal policies which is likely to result in higher deficits and in turn

will translate into a greater supply of sovereign bonds suppressing the bond yields Putting the dropping bond yields into

context we see insurersrsquo net investment yields on bond securities may have more downside potential The rational reaction for

insurers will be investing more funds in higher yield investment instruments Among the non-standard investment instruments

of commercial bank WMP debt schemes AM plans and trust products We believe debt schemes could be the ldquosafest betrdquo for

insurers based on 1 less capital consumption under C-ROSS and 2 the supply of certain beneficiary rights related trust

products may decrease because of the release of Document 82 by CBRC in May requiring Chinese commercial banks to

properly conduct provisioning for moving certain credit assets out of their balance sheets The former argument is more

apparent as under C-ROSS quantifiable market risk category each investment instrument has been assigned to a minimum

capital requirement factor (~less 10) the higher the factor the more capital consuming that instrument is As the table below

shows debt schemes have lower risk factors than that of for trust products and AM plans Moreover we are optimistic about

the general supply for debt schemes since the underlying investments are normally large government-led infrastructure

projects We think the aforementioned expansionary fiscal policy will bring sizable investments in this field accommodating

insurer fund investment appetite

Sector valuation where are we now and what is in the price

Sector valuation has been depressed following the abrupt sell-off at the beginning of the year and currently it points

to the pre-bull market levels seen in November 2014 Sector valuation has returned to the pre-bull market levels in

November 2014 Historical PEV now stands below 100x and it shows a fairly long journey to reach the post global financial

crisis level of the 7-year average of 173x During a 7-year observation horizon sector valuation hit a trough in February this

year recording a reading of 071x historical PEV Regarding the historical PEV annual range it has quite narrow and is not

dispersed even when compared to 2012 implying a lack of positive price catalysts and discouraging investment sentiments

Historical stock prices of Hong Kong listed Chinese insurance companies have a certain degree of correlation with

Chinese government bond yields We believe that the Chinese government bond yields have a certain degree of

predictability power on the stock prices of our covered insurers from a trading perspective On a fundamental account a higher

bond yield may imply a higher net investment yield for new insurersrsquo funds investing in bond securities Moreover as investing

in insurance companies is often a form of macro play rising government bond yields may suggest improving macroeconomic

conditions and rising risk appetites in the market (~ selling risk free assets and buying risk assets) which could help explaining

the somewhat positive correlation

We believe the market is currently pricing in an averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered

insurers which is below the investment return in their respective embedded value assumptions We utilise EV

Downgrade on Future Investment Performance Pressure

投资表现压力引致评级下调

1Q16 EPS was down 58 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased claims amp expenses Investment income (ex FV gains) was

down 224 yoy Net the investment yield was 500 pa but the

comprehensive investment yield was merely 369 pa on poor A-share

performance during the period

We see the Companyrsquos earnings growth to be anaemic on possible

weakened investment performance and rising insurance reserve

charges We see China Lifersquos investment asset allocation is in a worse

position compared to listed peers and we expect that the potential rise in

the ldquocostrdquo of new policies may weigh on the long-term investment return

assumption in the EV We lower 2016F EPS by 163 on a downward

adjustment in full-year investment income

We downgrade the investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo on future

investment performance pressure with a trimmed target price of HKD

1986 per share We value China Life by applying NBV multiple based

valuation technique with a 2016F NBV multiple of 59x and an assumed

COE of 105 Key downside risk includes 1 investment performance

pressure on new insurer funds and 2 unexpected A-share market

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

价值乘数并假设股本成本为 122

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

Metric 4 Product mix

China Life and Ping An has comparatively higher proportion of universal life insurance products in the product mix

with an estimated percentage of 104 and 285 in 2015 respectively Selling universal life insurance products is the

usual tactic for volume play for Chinarsquos insurers especially during the jumpstart season in the first quarter of the year Although

traditional life insurance products have gained some traction after its pricing reform in 2013 universal life insurance products

remain a key important product type for the yield-starved customers We continue to employ our ldquoquasi-premiumsrdquo terminology

for the measurement of market share breakdown by product types Our analysis shows that on the sector front premiums

from universal life insurance products continued to account for around 32 in the total quasi-premiums in 2015 and this

percentage rose to around 41 in 1Q16 Even on a yoy comparison the percentage rose around 18 ppts suggesting heavier

reliance on investment oriented products for cash flow generation As for our covered insurers a few of them had sold

universal life insurance products as riders attached to the basic policy for the purpose of yield enhancement during this yearrsquos

Metric 5 Duration analysis of insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities

A considerable portion of our insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities had a duration of over 5 years

Based on the covered insurersrsquo 2015 annual disclosures we find that their insurance and investment contract liabilities on an

aggregate level were fairly long-dated 73 of the insurance and investment contract liabilities on average had a duration of

over 5 years We believe there is a growing trend for major listed life insurers to stretch their insurance and investment

contract liabilities and the motivation for which in our view may stem from the following 1 new products tend to have a longer

product duration as the regulator promotes the sales of long-duration and protection oriented products and 2 life insurersrsquo

own initiative in order to battle the low-interest rate environment At a closer look at our covered insurers due to the

differences in business scope pure life insurers such as China Life and New China Life most of their insurance and durations

of investment contract liabilities were over 5 years whereas composite insurance companies like the rest (~Ping An CPIC

PICC Group and CTIH) had the proportion of longer duration liabilities diluted to some extent because of the inclusion of PampC

Life and PampC insurance sector near-term outlook

We expect the growth trajectory for Chinarsquos life insurance sector premium income to be flattened in 2H16 on the

grounds of tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life insurance products and increasing divergence in

product distribution strategies among life insurers Despite the high base in 2015 Chinarsquos life insurance sector ytd

premium income still managed to deliver an astonishing yoy gain of 524 in 1Q16 which is mainly attributed to the

performance achieved during this yearrsquos jumpstart season The competitive landscape of the sector however remained fairly

concentrated given the usual ldquoBig 4rdquo life insurers still taking up a combined market share of approximately 481 Chinese

commercial banks-backed insurers and some unlisted ones experienced rapid growth in premium income by utilising their

respective advantages in distribution channels and product offerings Looking ahead we think the growth trajectory in 2H16 is

expected to be flattened to some extent mainly on the back of CIRCrsquos tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life

insurance products and increasing divergence in product distribution strategies among life insurers (Please refer to our

previous comment CIRC Tightens the Sale of Short Medium Duration High Cash Value Life Insurance Products We Expect

Our Covered Insurers to Have Moderate Exposure)

We believe that the former will have a more adverse impact on the premium income growth outlook for new comers in the

sector with less diversified product portfolios and the latter is concluded based on our observation of the product shifts for

some of our covered life insurers We see a growing trend for the listed life insurers to employ a differentiated product

distribution strategy which was demonstrated by New China Lifersquos unusual 104 yoy decline in premium income during the

jumpstart season Nevertheless we still see that the sector premium income posted a strong yoy growth rate of around 35 in

2016

The continuation of the commercial auto insurance pricing reform in China is expected to further weigh on generic

pricing rates but we believe the underwriting profit margin will be further improved Recently released operating data

by the CIRC reaffirmed our views on the pricing reform of slower revenue growth but it comes with improved margins CIRC

said on May 11 that the combined ratio for auto insurance in the pilot regions was 94 in 1Q16 with a yoy increase of 113 in

premium income compared to 121 nationwide The reform kicked off last June in six pilot regions and it expanded to twelve

in January By the end of June the number of pilot regions will be increased to eighteen At this stage CIRC sees that the

underwriting risks have not been fully reflected in the pricing yet implying that the degree of insurersrsquo pricing autonomy still

has room to grow In addition we see less room for fiercer competition on the expense side given potential capital constraints

for PampC insurers

Given Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to remain low and with the full implementation of C-ROSS we

expect that insurersrsquo funds will continue to favour non-standard investment instruments among which we believe

debt schemes are likely to be the type with highest growth potential In short our viewpoint is that Chinarsquos government

bond yields are expected to hover around current low levels on the back of 1 Chinarsquos weak macroeconomic growth outlook

Albeit our macro team does not foresee a hard landing scenario for Chinarsquos economy current macro readings imply the lack of

upward catalysts which favours risk-free assets such as sovereign bonds together with the tamed inflation expectation and th

expected decelerating credit growth in 2H16 we see Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to be at low levels 2

Chinarsquos expansionary fiscal policy may induce a greater supply of sovereign bonds We see the ongoing supply-side reforms

may also be achieved by the introduction of expansionary fiscal policies which is likely to result in higher deficits and in turn

will translate into a greater supply of sovereign bonds suppressing the bond yields Putting the dropping bond yields into

context we see insurersrsquo net investment yields on bond securities may have more downside potential The rational reaction for

insurers will be investing more funds in higher yield investment instruments Among the non-standard investment instruments

of commercial bank WMP debt schemes AM plans and trust products We believe debt schemes could be the ldquosafest betrdquo for

insurers based on 1 less capital consumption under C-ROSS and 2 the supply of certain beneficiary rights related trust

products may decrease because of the release of Document 82 by CBRC in May requiring Chinese commercial banks to

properly conduct provisioning for moving certain credit assets out of their balance sheets The former argument is more

apparent as under C-ROSS quantifiable market risk category each investment instrument has been assigned to a minimum

capital requirement factor (~less 10) the higher the factor the more capital consuming that instrument is As the table below

shows debt schemes have lower risk factors than that of for trust products and AM plans Moreover we are optimistic about

the general supply for debt schemes since the underlying investments are normally large government-led infrastructure

projects We think the aforementioned expansionary fiscal policy will bring sizable investments in this field accommodating

insurer fund investment appetite

Sector valuation where are we now and what is in the price

Sector valuation has been depressed following the abrupt sell-off at the beginning of the year and currently it points

to the pre-bull market levels seen in November 2014 Sector valuation has returned to the pre-bull market levels in

November 2014 Historical PEV now stands below 100x and it shows a fairly long journey to reach the post global financial

crisis level of the 7-year average of 173x During a 7-year observation horizon sector valuation hit a trough in February this

year recording a reading of 071x historical PEV Regarding the historical PEV annual range it has quite narrow and is not

dispersed even when compared to 2012 implying a lack of positive price catalysts and discouraging investment sentiments

Historical stock prices of Hong Kong listed Chinese insurance companies have a certain degree of correlation with

Chinese government bond yields We believe that the Chinese government bond yields have a certain degree of

predictability power on the stock prices of our covered insurers from a trading perspective On a fundamental account a higher

bond yield may imply a higher net investment yield for new insurersrsquo funds investing in bond securities Moreover as investing

in insurance companies is often a form of macro play rising government bond yields may suggest improving macroeconomic

conditions and rising risk appetites in the market (~ selling risk free assets and buying risk assets) which could help explaining

the somewhat positive correlation

We believe the market is currently pricing in an averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered

insurers which is below the investment return in their respective embedded value assumptions We utilise EV

sensitivity tables from each covered insurer to derive this implied market price expectation regarding 2016 investment return

Our analysis shows that the market seems particularly pessimistic about this yearrsquos investment performance for New China

Life which it implies a reduction of 220 bps from the baseline of 50

Downgrade on Future Investment Performance Pressure

投资表现压力引致评级下调

1Q16 EPS was down 58 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased claims amp expenses Investment income (ex FV gains) was

down 224 yoy Net the investment yield was 500 pa but the

comprehensive investment yield was merely 369 pa on poor A-share

performance during the period

We see the Companyrsquos earnings growth to be anaemic on possible

weakened investment performance and rising insurance reserve

charges We see China Lifersquos investment asset allocation is in a worse

position compared to listed peers and we expect that the potential rise in

the ldquocostrdquo of new policies may weigh on the long-term investment return

assumption in the EV We lower 2016F EPS by 163 on a downward

adjustment in full-year investment income

We downgrade the investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo on future

investment performance pressure with a trimmed target price of HKD

1986 per share We value China Life by applying NBV multiple based

valuation technique with a 2016F NBV multiple of 59x and an assumed

COE of 105 Key downside risk includes 1 investment performance

pressure on new insurer funds and 2 unexpected A-share market

投资收益(不含公允价值变动)同比下跌 224期末年化净投资收益率为 500但

综合收益率年化仅为 369主要原因是 A 股市场的不景气所致

由于可能出现的不佳投资表现和保险准备金的上升我们预期公司未来盈利增长较为疲

由于投资表现压力我们将公司的投资评级下调至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 1986

港元我们运用新业务价值乘数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 59 倍并假设

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

Metric 4 Product mix

China Life and Ping An has comparatively higher proportion of universal life insurance products in the product mix

with an estimated percentage of 104 and 285 in 2015 respectively Selling universal life insurance products is the

usual tactic for volume play for Chinarsquos insurers especially during the jumpstart season in the first quarter of the year Although

traditional life insurance products have gained some traction after its pricing reform in 2013 universal life insurance products

remain a key important product type for the yield-starved customers We continue to employ our ldquoquasi-premiumsrdquo terminology

for the measurement of market share breakdown by product types Our analysis shows that on the sector front premiums

from universal life insurance products continued to account for around 32 in the total quasi-premiums in 2015 and this

percentage rose to around 41 in 1Q16 Even on a yoy comparison the percentage rose around 18 ppts suggesting heavier

reliance on investment oriented products for cash flow generation As for our covered insurers a few of them had sold

universal life insurance products as riders attached to the basic policy for the purpose of yield enhancement during this yearrsquos

Metric 5 Duration analysis of insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities

A considerable portion of our insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities had a duration of over 5 years

Based on the covered insurersrsquo 2015 annual disclosures we find that their insurance and investment contract liabilities on an

aggregate level were fairly long-dated 73 of the insurance and investment contract liabilities on average had a duration of

over 5 years We believe there is a growing trend for major listed life insurers to stretch their insurance and investment

contract liabilities and the motivation for which in our view may stem from the following 1 new products tend to have a longer

product duration as the regulator promotes the sales of long-duration and protection oriented products and 2 life insurersrsquo

own initiative in order to battle the low-interest rate environment At a closer look at our covered insurers due to the

differences in business scope pure life insurers such as China Life and New China Life most of their insurance and durations

of investment contract liabilities were over 5 years whereas composite insurance companies like the rest (~Ping An CPIC

PICC Group and CTIH) had the proportion of longer duration liabilities diluted to some extent because of the inclusion of PampC

Life and PampC insurance sector near-term outlook

We expect the growth trajectory for Chinarsquos life insurance sector premium income to be flattened in 2H16 on the

grounds of tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life insurance products and increasing divergence in

product distribution strategies among life insurers Despite the high base in 2015 Chinarsquos life insurance sector ytd

premium income still managed to deliver an astonishing yoy gain of 524 in 1Q16 which is mainly attributed to the

performance achieved during this yearrsquos jumpstart season The competitive landscape of the sector however remained fairly

concentrated given the usual ldquoBig 4rdquo life insurers still taking up a combined market share of approximately 481 Chinese

commercial banks-backed insurers and some unlisted ones experienced rapid growth in premium income by utilising their

respective advantages in distribution channels and product offerings Looking ahead we think the growth trajectory in 2H16 is

expected to be flattened to some extent mainly on the back of CIRCrsquos tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life

insurance products and increasing divergence in product distribution strategies among life insurers (Please refer to our

previous comment CIRC Tightens the Sale of Short Medium Duration High Cash Value Life Insurance Products We Expect

Our Covered Insurers to Have Moderate Exposure)

We believe that the former will have a more adverse impact on the premium income growth outlook for new comers in the

sector with less diversified product portfolios and the latter is concluded based on our observation of the product shifts for

some of our covered life insurers We see a growing trend for the listed life insurers to employ a differentiated product

distribution strategy which was demonstrated by New China Lifersquos unusual 104 yoy decline in premium income during the

jumpstart season Nevertheless we still see that the sector premium income posted a strong yoy growth rate of around 35 in

The continuation of the commercial auto insurance pricing reform in China is expected to further weigh on generic

pricing rates but we believe the underwriting profit margin will be further improved Recently released operating data

by the CIRC reaffirmed our views on the pricing reform of slower revenue growth but it comes with improved margins CIRC

said on May 11 that the combined ratio for auto insurance in the pilot regions was 94 in 1Q16 with a yoy increase of 113 in

premium income compared to 121 nationwide The reform kicked off last June in six pilot regions and it expanded to twelve

in January By the end of June the number of pilot regions will be increased to eighteen At this stage CIRC sees that the

underwriting risks have not been fully reflected in the pricing yet implying that the degree of insurersrsquo pricing autonomy still

has room to grow In addition we see less room for fiercer competition on the expense side given potential capital constraints

for PampC insurers

Given Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to remain low and with the full implementation of C-ROSS we

expect that insurersrsquo funds will continue to favour non-standard investment instruments among which we believe

debt schemes are likely to be the type with highest growth potential In short our viewpoint is that Chinarsquos government

bond yields are expected to hover around current low levels on the back of 1 Chinarsquos weak macroeconomic growth outlook

Albeit our macro team does not foresee a hard landing scenario for Chinarsquos economy current macro readings imply the lack of

upward catalysts which favours risk-free assets such as sovereign bonds together with the tamed inflation expectation and th

expected decelerating credit growth in 2H16 we see Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to be at low levels 2

Chinarsquos expansionary fiscal policy may induce a greater supply of sovereign bonds We see the ongoing supply-side reforms

may also be achieved by the introduction of expansionary fiscal policies which is likely to result in higher deficits and in turn

will translate into a greater supply of sovereign bonds suppressing the bond yields Putting the dropping bond yields into

context we see insurersrsquo net investment yields on bond securities may have more downside potential The rational reaction for

insurers will be investing more funds in higher yield investment instruments Among the non-standard investment instruments

of commercial bank WMP debt schemes AM plans and trust products We believe debt schemes could be the ldquosafest betrdquo for

insurers based on 1 less capital consumption under C-ROSS and 2 the supply of certain beneficiary rights related trust

products may decrease because of the release of Document 82 by CBRC in May requiring Chinese commercial banks to

properly conduct provisioning for moving certain credit assets out of their balance sheets The former argument is more

apparent as under C-ROSS quantifiable market risk category each investment instrument has been assigned to a minimum

capital requirement factor (~less 10) the higher the factor the more capital consuming that instrument is As the table below

shows debt schemes have lower risk factors than that of for trust products and AM plans Moreover we are optimistic about

the general supply for debt schemes since the underlying investments are normally large government-led infrastructure

projects We think the aforementioned expansionary fiscal policy will bring sizable investments in this field accommodating

insurer fund investment appetite

Sector valuation where are we now and what is in the price

Sector valuation has been depressed following the abrupt sell-off at the beginning of the year and currently it points

to the pre-bull market levels seen in November 2014 Sector valuation has returned to the pre-bull market levels in

November 2014 Historical PEV now stands below 100x and it shows a fairly long journey to reach the post global financial

crisis level of the 7-year average of 173x During a 7-year observation horizon sector valuation hit a trough in February this

year recording a reading of 071x historical PEV Regarding the historical PEV annual range it has quite narrow and is not

dispersed even when compared to 2012 implying a lack of positive price catalysts and discouraging investment sentiments

Historical stock prices of Hong Kong listed Chinese insurance companies have a certain degree of correlation with

Chinese government bond yields We believe that the Chinese government bond yields have a certain degree of

predictability power on the stock prices of our covered insurers from a trading perspective On a fundamental account a higher

bond yield may imply a higher net investment yield for new insurersrsquo funds investing in bond securities Moreover as investing

in insurance companies is often a form of macro play rising government bond yields may suggest improving macroeconomic

conditions and rising risk appetites in the market (~ selling risk free assets and buying risk assets) which could help explaining

the somewhat positive correlation

We believe the market is currently pricing in an averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered

insurers which is below the investment return in their respective embedded value assumptions We utilise EV

sensitivity tables from each covered insurer to derive this implied market price expectation regarding 2016 investment return

Our analysis shows that the market seems particularly pessimistic about this yearrsquos investment performance for New China

Life which it implies a reduction of 220 bps from the baseline of 50

Downgrade on Future Investment Performance Pressure

投资表现压力引致评级下调

1Q16 EPS was down 58 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased claims amp expenses Investment income (ex FV gains) was

down 224 yoy Net the investment yield was 500 pa but the

comprehensive investment yield was merely 369 pa on poor A-share

performance during the period

We see the Companyrsquos earnings growth to be anaemic on possible

weakened investment performance and rising insurance reserve

charges We see China Lifersquos investment asset allocation is in a worse

position compared to listed peers and we expect that the potential rise in

the ldquocostrdquo of new policies may weigh on the long-term investment return

assumption in the EV We lower 2016F EPS by 163 on a downward

adjustment in full-year investment income

We downgrade the investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo on future

investment performance pressure with a trimmed target price of HKD

1986 per share We value China Life by applying NBV multiple based

valuation technique with a 2016F NBV multiple of 59x and an assumed

COE of 105 Key downside risk includes 1 investment performance

pressure on new insurer funds and 2 unexpected A-share market

deterioration

2016 年 1 季度每股盈利因投资收益的减少和保险赔付及开支的增加而同比下滑 58

投资收益(不含公允价值变动)同比下跌 224期末年化净投资收益率为 500但

综合收益率年化仅为 369主要原因是 A 股市场的不景气所致

由于可能出现的不佳投资表现和保险准备金的上升我们预期公司未来盈利增长较为疲

由于投资表现压力我们将公司的投资评级下调至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 1986

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

价值乘数并假设股本成本为 122

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

Metric 5 Duration analysis of insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities

A considerable portion of our insurersrsquo insurance and investment contract liabilities had a duration of over 5 years

Based on the covered insurersrsquo 2015 annual disclosures we find that their insurance and investment contract liabilities on an

aggregate level were fairly long-dated 73 of the insurance and investment contract liabilities on average had a duration of

over 5 years We believe there is a growing trend for major listed life insurers to stretch their insurance and investment

contract liabilities and the motivation for which in our view may stem from the following 1 new products tend to have a longer

product duration as the regulator promotes the sales of long-duration and protection oriented products and 2 life insurersrsquo

own initiative in order to battle the low-interest rate environment At a closer look at our covered insurers due to the

differences in business scope pure life insurers such as China Life and New China Life most of their insurance and durations

of investment contract liabilities were over 5 years whereas composite insurance companies like the rest (~Ping An CPIC

PICC Group and CTIH) had the proportion of longer duration liabilities diluted to some extent because of the inclusion of PampC

Life and PampC insurance sector near-term outlook

We expect the growth trajectory for Chinarsquos life insurance sector premium income to be flattened in 2H16 on the

grounds of tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life insurance products and increasing divergence in

product distribution strategies among life insurers Despite the high base in 2015 Chinarsquos life insurance sector ytd

premium income still managed to deliver an astonishing yoy gain of 524 in 1Q16 which is mainly attributed to the

performance achieved during this yearrsquos jumpstart season The competitive landscape of the sector however remained fairly

concentrated given the usual ldquoBig 4rdquo life insurers still taking up a combined market share of approximately 481 Chinese

commercial banks-backed insurers and some unlisted ones experienced rapid growth in premium income by utilising their

respective advantages in distribution channels and product offerings Looking ahead we think the growth trajectory in 2H16 is

expected to be flattened to some extent mainly on the back of CIRCrsquos tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life

insurance products and increasing divergence in product distribution strategies among life insurers (Please refer to our

previous comment CIRC Tightens the Sale of Short Medium Duration High Cash Value Life Insurance Products We Expect

Our Covered Insurers to Have Moderate Exposure)

We believe that the former will have a more adverse impact on the premium income growth outlook for new comers in the

sector with less diversified product portfolios and the latter is concluded based on our observation of the product shifts for

some of our covered life insurers We see a growing trend for the listed life insurers to employ a differentiated product

distribution strategy which was demonstrated by New China Lifersquos unusual 104 yoy decline in premium income during the

jumpstart season Nevertheless we still see that the sector premium income posted a strong yoy growth rate of around 35 in

The continuation of the commercial auto insurance pricing reform in China is expected to further weigh on generic

pricing rates but we believe the underwriting profit margin will be further improved Recently released operating data

by the CIRC reaffirmed our views on the pricing reform of slower revenue growth but it comes with improved margins CIRC

said on May 11 that the combined ratio for auto insurance in the pilot regions was 94 in 1Q16 with a yoy increase of 113 in

premium income compared to 121 nationwide The reform kicked off last June in six pilot regions and it expanded to twelve

in January By the end of June the number of pilot regions will be increased to eighteen At this stage CIRC sees that the

underwriting risks have not been fully reflected in the pricing yet implying that the degree of insurersrsquo pricing autonomy still

has room to grow In addition we see less room for fiercer competition on the expense side given potential capital constraints

for PampC insurers

Given Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to remain low and with the full implementation of C-ROSS we

expect that insurersrsquo funds will continue to favour non-standard investment instruments among which we believe

debt schemes are likely to be the type with highest growth potential In short our viewpoint is that Chinarsquos government

bond yields are expected to hover around current low levels on the back of 1 Chinarsquos weak macroeconomic growth outlook

Albeit our macro team does not foresee a hard landing scenario for Chinarsquos economy current macro readings imply the lack of

upward catalysts which favours risk-free assets such as sovereign bonds together with the tamed inflation expectation and th

expected decelerating credit growth in 2H16 we see Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to be at low levels 2

Chinarsquos expansionary fiscal policy may induce a greater supply of sovereign bonds We see the ongoing supply-side reforms

may also be achieved by the introduction of expansionary fiscal policies which is likely to result in higher deficits and in turn

will translate into a greater supply of sovereign bonds suppressing the bond yields Putting the dropping bond yields into

context we see insurersrsquo net investment yields on bond securities may have more downside potential The rational reaction for

insurers will be investing more funds in higher yield investment instruments Among the non-standard investment instruments

of commercial bank WMP debt schemes AM plans and trust products We believe debt schemes could be the ldquosafest betrdquo for

insurers based on 1 less capital consumption under C-ROSS and 2 the supply of certain beneficiary rights related trust

products may decrease because of the release of Document 82 by CBRC in May requiring Chinese commercial banks to

properly conduct provisioning for moving certain credit assets out of their balance sheets The former argument is more

apparent as under C-ROSS quantifiable market risk category each investment instrument has been assigned to a minimum

capital requirement factor (~less 10) the higher the factor the more capital consuming that instrument is As the table below

shows debt schemes have lower risk factors than that of for trust products and AM plans Moreover we are optimistic about

the general supply for debt schemes since the underlying investments are normally large government-led infrastructure

projects We think the aforementioned expansionary fiscal policy will bring sizable investments in this field accommodating

insurer fund investment appetite

Sector valuation where are we now and what is in the price

Sector valuation has been depressed following the abrupt sell-off at the beginning of the year and currently it points

to the pre-bull market levels seen in November 2014 Sector valuation has returned to the pre-bull market levels in

November 2014 Historical PEV now stands below 100x and it shows a fairly long journey to reach the post global financial

crisis level of the 7-year average of 173x During a 7-year observation horizon sector valuation hit a trough in February this

year recording a reading of 071x historical PEV Regarding the historical PEV annual range it has quite narrow and is not

dispersed even when compared to 2012 implying a lack of positive price catalysts and discouraging investment sentiments

Historical stock prices of Hong Kong listed Chinese insurance companies have a certain degree of correlation with

Chinese government bond yields We believe that the Chinese government bond yields have a certain degree of

predictability power on the stock prices of our covered insurers from a trading perspective On a fundamental account a higher

bond yield may imply a higher net investment yield for new insurersrsquo funds investing in bond securities Moreover as investing

in insurance companies is often a form of macro play rising government bond yields may suggest improving macroeconomic

conditions and rising risk appetites in the market (~ selling risk free assets and buying risk assets) which could help explaining

the somewhat positive correlation

We believe the market is currently pricing in an averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered

insurers which is below the investment return in their respective embedded value assumptions We utilise EV

Downgrade on Future Investment Performance Pressure

投资表现压力引致评级下调

1Q16 EPS was down 58 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased claims amp expenses Investment income (ex FV gains) was

down 224 yoy Net the investment yield was 500 pa but the

comprehensive investment yield was merely 369 pa on poor A-share

performance during the period

We see the Companyrsquos earnings growth to be anaemic on possible

weakened investment performance and rising insurance reserve

charges We see China Lifersquos investment asset allocation is in a worse

position compared to listed peers and we expect that the potential rise in

the ldquocostrdquo of new policies may weigh on the long-term investment return

assumption in the EV We lower 2016F EPS by 163 on a downward

adjustment in full-year investment income

We downgrade the investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo on future

investment performance pressure with a trimmed target price of HKD

1986 per share We value China Life by applying NBV multiple based

valuation technique with a 2016F NBV multiple of 59x and an assumed

COE of 105 Key downside risk includes 1 investment performance

pressure on new insurer funds and 2 unexpected A-share market

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

价值乘数并假设股本成本为 122

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

Life and PampC insurance sector near-term outlook

We expect the growth trajectory for Chinarsquos life insurance sector premium income to be flattened in 2H16 on the

grounds of tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life insurance products and increasing divergence in

product distribution strategies among life insurers Despite the high base in 2015 Chinarsquos life insurance sector ytd

premium income still managed to deliver an astonishing yoy gain of 524 in 1Q16 which is mainly attributed to the

performance achieved during this yearrsquos jumpstart season The competitive landscape of the sector however remained fairly

concentrated given the usual ldquoBig 4rdquo life insurers still taking up a combined market share of approximately 481 Chinese

commercial banks-backed insurers and some unlisted ones experienced rapid growth in premium income by utilising their

respective advantages in distribution channels and product offerings Looking ahead we think the growth trajectory in 2H16 is

expected to be flattened to some extent mainly on the back of CIRCrsquos tightening on the sales of short-duration universal life

insurance products and increasing divergence in product distribution strategies among life insurers (Please refer to our

previous comment CIRC Tightens the Sale of Short Medium Duration High Cash Value Life Insurance Products We Expect

Our Covered Insurers to Have Moderate Exposure)

We believe that the former will have a more adverse impact on the premium income growth outlook for new comers in the

sector with less diversified product portfolios and the latter is concluded based on our observation of the product shifts for

some of our covered life insurers We see a growing trend for the listed life insurers to employ a differentiated product

distribution strategy which was demonstrated by New China Lifersquos unusual 104 yoy decline in premium income during the

jumpstart season Nevertheless we still see that the sector premium income posted a strong yoy growth rate of around 35 in

The continuation of the commercial auto insurance pricing reform in China is expected to further weigh on generic

pricing rates but we believe the underwriting profit margin will be further improved Recently released operating data

by the CIRC reaffirmed our views on the pricing reform of slower revenue growth but it comes with improved margins CIRC

said on May 11 that the combined ratio for auto insurance in the pilot regions was 94 in 1Q16 with a yoy increase of 113 in

premium income compared to 121 nationwide The reform kicked off last June in six pilot regions and it expanded to twelve

in January By the end of June the number of pilot regions will be increased to eighteen At this stage CIRC sees that the

underwriting risks have not been fully reflected in the pricing yet implying that the degree of insurersrsquo pricing autonomy still

has room to grow In addition we see less room for fiercer competition on the expense side given potential capital constraints

for PampC insurers

Given Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to remain low and with the full implementation of C-ROSS we

expect that insurersrsquo funds will continue to favour non-standard investment instruments among which we believe

debt schemes are likely to be the type with highest growth potential In short our viewpoint is that Chinarsquos government

bond yields are expected to hover around current low levels on the back of 1 Chinarsquos weak macroeconomic growth outlook

Albeit our macro team does not foresee a hard landing scenario for Chinarsquos economy current macro readings imply the lack of

upward catalysts which favours risk-free assets such as sovereign bonds together with the tamed inflation expectation and th

expected decelerating credit growth in 2H16 we see Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to be at low levels 2

Chinarsquos expansionary fiscal policy may induce a greater supply of sovereign bonds We see the ongoing supply-side reforms

may also be achieved by the introduction of expansionary fiscal policies which is likely to result in higher deficits and in turn

will translate into a greater supply of sovereign bonds suppressing the bond yields Putting the dropping bond yields into

context we see insurersrsquo net investment yields on bond securities may have more downside potential The rational reaction for

insurers will be investing more funds in higher yield investment instruments Among the non-standard investment instruments

of commercial bank WMP debt schemes AM plans and trust products We believe debt schemes could be the ldquosafest betrdquo for

insurers based on 1 less capital consumption under C-ROSS and 2 the supply of certain beneficiary rights related trust

products may decrease because of the release of Document 82 by CBRC in May requiring Chinese commercial banks to

properly conduct provisioning for moving certain credit assets out of their balance sheets The former argument is more

apparent as under C-ROSS quantifiable market risk category each investment instrument has been assigned to a minimum

capital requirement factor (~less 10) the higher the factor the more capital consuming that instrument is As the table below

shows debt schemes have lower risk factors than that of for trust products and AM plans Moreover we are optimistic about

the general supply for debt schemes since the underlying investments are normally large government-led infrastructure

projects We think the aforementioned expansionary fiscal policy will bring sizable investments in this field accommodating

insurer fund investment appetite

Sector valuation where are we now and what is in the price

Sector valuation has been depressed following the abrupt sell-off at the beginning of the year and currently it points

to the pre-bull market levels seen in November 2014 Sector valuation has returned to the pre-bull market levels in

November 2014 Historical PEV now stands below 100x and it shows a fairly long journey to reach the post global financial

crisis level of the 7-year average of 173x During a 7-year observation horizon sector valuation hit a trough in February this

year recording a reading of 071x historical PEV Regarding the historical PEV annual range it has quite narrow and is not

dispersed even when compared to 2012 implying a lack of positive price catalysts and discouraging investment sentiments

Historical stock prices of Hong Kong listed Chinese insurance companies have a certain degree of correlation with

Chinese government bond yields We believe that the Chinese government bond yields have a certain degree of

predictability power on the stock prices of our covered insurers from a trading perspective On a fundamental account a higher

bond yield may imply a higher net investment yield for new insurersrsquo funds investing in bond securities Moreover as investing

in insurance companies is often a form of macro play rising government bond yields may suggest improving macroeconomic

conditions and rising risk appetites in the market (~ selling risk free assets and buying risk assets) which could help explaining

the somewhat positive correlation

We believe the market is currently pricing in an averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered

insurers which is below the investment return in their respective embedded value assumptions We utilise EV

sensitivity tables from each covered insurer to derive this implied market price expectation regarding 2016 investment return

Our analysis shows that the market seems particularly pessimistic about this yearrsquos investment performance for New China

Life which it implies a reduction of 220 bps from the baseline of 50

Downgrade on Future Investment Performance Pressure

投资表现压力引致评级下调

1Q16 EPS was down 58 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased claims amp expenses Investment income (ex FV gains) was

down 224 yoy Net the investment yield was 500 pa but the

comprehensive investment yield was merely 369 pa on poor A-share

performance during the period

We see the Companyrsquos earnings growth to be anaemic on possible

weakened investment performance and rising insurance reserve

charges We see China Lifersquos investment asset allocation is in a worse

position compared to listed peers and we expect that the potential rise in

the ldquocostrdquo of new policies may weigh on the long-term investment return

assumption in the EV We lower 2016F EPS by 163 on a downward

adjustment in full-year investment income

We downgrade the investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo on future

investment performance pressure with a trimmed target price of HKD

1986 per share We value China Life by applying NBV multiple based

valuation technique with a 2016F NBV multiple of 59x and an assumed

COE of 105 Key downside risk includes 1 investment performance

pressure on new insurer funds and 2 unexpected A-share market

deterioration

2016 年 1 季度每股盈利因投资收益的减少和保险赔付及开支的增加而同比下滑 58

投资收益(不含公允价值变动)同比下跌 224期末年化净投资收益率为 500但

综合收益率年化仅为 369主要原因是 A 股市场的不景气所致

由于可能出现的不佳投资表现和保险准备金的上升我们预期公司未来盈利增长较为疲

弱我们认为中国人寿目前的资产配置状态不及上市同业并且我们预期上升的新单ldquo成

本rdquo将对公司精算假设中长期投资收益率构成一定压力基于对全年投资收益的预测下

调我们将公司 2016 财年的每股盈利下调 163

由于投资表现压力我们将公司的投资评级下调至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 1986

港元我们运用新业务价值乘数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 59 倍并假设

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

价值乘数并假设股本成本为 122

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

The continuation of the commercial auto insurance pricing reform in China is expected to further weigh on generic

pricing rates but we believe the underwriting profit margin will be further improved Recently released operating data

by the CIRC reaffirmed our views on the pricing reform of slower revenue growth but it comes with improved margins CIRC

said on May 11 that the combined ratio for auto insurance in the pilot regions was 94 in 1Q16 with a yoy increase of 113 in

premium income compared to 121 nationwide The reform kicked off last June in six pilot regions and it expanded to twelve

in January By the end of June the number of pilot regions will be increased to eighteen At this stage CIRC sees that the

underwriting risks have not been fully reflected in the pricing yet implying that the degree of insurersrsquo pricing autonomy still

has room to grow In addition we see less room for fiercer competition on the expense side given potential capital constraints

for PampC insurers

Given Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to remain low and with the full implementation of C-ROSS we

expect that insurersrsquo funds will continue to favour non-standard investment instruments among which we believe

debt schemes are likely to be the type with highest growth potential In short our viewpoint is that Chinarsquos government

bond yields are expected to hover around current low levels on the back of 1 Chinarsquos weak macroeconomic growth outlook

Albeit our macro team does not foresee a hard landing scenario for Chinarsquos economy current macro readings imply the lack of

upward catalysts which favours risk-free assets such as sovereign bonds together with the tamed inflation expectation and th

expected decelerating credit growth in 2H16 we see Chinarsquos government bond yields are expected to be at low levels 2

Chinarsquos expansionary fiscal policy may induce a greater supply of sovereign bonds We see the ongoing supply-side reforms

may also be achieved by the introduction of expansionary fiscal policies which is likely to result in higher deficits and in turn

will translate into a greater supply of sovereign bonds suppressing the bond yields Putting the dropping bond yields into

context we see insurersrsquo net investment yields on bond securities may have more downside potential The rational reaction for

insurers will be investing more funds in higher yield investment instruments Among the non-standard investment instruments

of commercial bank WMP debt schemes AM plans and trust products We believe debt schemes could be the ldquosafest betrdquo for

insurers based on 1 less capital consumption under C-ROSS and 2 the supply of certain beneficiary rights related trust

products may decrease because of the release of Document 82 by CBRC in May requiring Chinese commercial banks to

properly conduct provisioning for moving certain credit assets out of their balance sheets The former argument is more

apparent as under C-ROSS quantifiable market risk category each investment instrument has been assigned to a minimum

capital requirement factor (~less 10) the higher the factor the more capital consuming that instrument is As the table below

shows debt schemes have lower risk factors than that of for trust products and AM plans Moreover we are optimistic about

the general supply for debt schemes since the underlying investments are normally large government-led infrastructure

projects We think the aforementioned expansionary fiscal policy will bring sizable investments in this field accommodating

insurer fund investment appetite

Sector valuation where are we now and what is in the price

Sector valuation has been depressed following the abrupt sell-off at the beginning of the year and currently it points

to the pre-bull market levels seen in November 2014 Sector valuation has returned to the pre-bull market levels in

November 2014 Historical PEV now stands below 100x and it shows a fairly long journey to reach the post global financial

crisis level of the 7-year average of 173x During a 7-year observation horizon sector valuation hit a trough in February this

year recording a reading of 071x historical PEV Regarding the historical PEV annual range it has quite narrow and is not

dispersed even when compared to 2012 implying a lack of positive price catalysts and discouraging investment sentiments

Historical stock prices of Hong Kong listed Chinese insurance companies have a certain degree of correlation with

Chinese government bond yields We believe that the Chinese government bond yields have a certain degree of

predictability power on the stock prices of our covered insurers from a trading perspective On a fundamental account a higher

bond yield may imply a higher net investment yield for new insurersrsquo funds investing in bond securities Moreover as investing

in insurance companies is often a form of macro play rising government bond yields may suggest improving macroeconomic

conditions and rising risk appetites in the market (~ selling risk free assets and buying risk assets) which could help explaining

the somewhat positive correlation

We believe the market is currently pricing in an averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered

insurers which is below the investment return in their respective embedded value assumptions We utilise EV

sensitivity tables from each covered insurer to derive this implied market price expectation regarding 2016 investment return

Our analysis shows that the market seems particularly pessimistic about this yearrsquos investment performance for New China

Life which it implies a reduction of 220 bps from the baseline of 50

Downgrade on Future Investment Performance Pressure

投资表现压力引致评级下调

1Q16 EPS was down 58 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased claims amp expenses Investment income (ex FV gains) was

down 224 yoy Net the investment yield was 500 pa but the

comprehensive investment yield was merely 369 pa on poor A-share

performance during the period

We see the Companyrsquos earnings growth to be anaemic on possible

weakened investment performance and rising insurance reserve

charges We see China Lifersquos investment asset allocation is in a worse

position compared to listed peers and we expect that the potential rise in

the ldquocostrdquo of new policies may weigh on the long-term investment return

assumption in the EV We lower 2016F EPS by 163 on a downward

adjustment in full-year investment income

We downgrade the investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo on future

investment performance pressure with a trimmed target price of HKD

1986 per share We value China Life by applying NBV multiple based

valuation technique with a 2016F NBV multiple of 59x and an assumed

COE of 105 Key downside risk includes 1 investment performance

pressure on new insurer funds and 2 unexpected A-share market

投资收益(不含公允价值变动)同比下跌 224期末年化净投资收益率为 500但

综合收益率年化仅为 369主要原因是 A 股市场的不景气所致

由于可能出现的不佳投资表现和保险准备金的上升我们预期公司未来盈利增长较为疲

本rdquo将对公司精算假设中长期投资收益率构成一定压力基于对全年投资收益的预测下

由于投资表现压力我们将公司的投资评级下调至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 1986

港元我们运用新业务价值乘数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 59 倍并假设

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

价值乘数并假设股本成本为 122

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

Sector valuation where are we now and what is in the price

Sector valuation has been depressed following the abrupt sell-off at the beginning of the year and currently it points

to the pre-bull market levels seen in November 2014 Sector valuation has returned to the pre-bull market levels in

November 2014 Historical PEV now stands below 100x and it shows a fairly long journey to reach the post global financial

crisis level of the 7-year average of 173x During a 7-year observation horizon sector valuation hit a trough in February this

year recording a reading of 071x historical PEV Regarding the historical PEV annual range it has quite narrow and is not

dispersed even when compared to 2012 implying a lack of positive price catalysts and discouraging investment sentiments

Historical stock prices of Hong Kong listed Chinese insurance companies have a certain degree of correlation with

Chinese government bond yields We believe that the Chinese government bond yields have a certain degree of

predictability power on the stock prices of our covered insurers from a trading perspective On a fundamental account a higher

bond yield may imply a higher net investment yield for new insurersrsquo funds investing in bond securities Moreover as investing

in insurance companies is often a form of macro play rising government bond yields may suggest improving macroeconomic

conditions and rising risk appetites in the market (~ selling risk free assets and buying risk assets) which could help explaining

the somewhat positive correlation

We believe the market is currently pricing in an averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered

insurers which is below the investment return in their respective embedded value assumptions We utilise EV

sensitivity tables from each covered insurer to derive this implied market price expectation regarding 2016 investment return

Our analysis shows that the market seems particularly pessimistic about this yearrsquos investment performance for New China

Life which it implies a reduction of 220 bps from the baseline of 50

Downgrade on Future Investment Performance Pressure

投资表现压力引致评级下调

1Q16 EPS was down 58 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased claims amp expenses Investment income (ex FV gains) was

down 224 yoy Net the investment yield was 500 pa but the

comprehensive investment yield was merely 369 pa on poor A-share

performance during the period

We see the Companyrsquos earnings growth to be anaemic on possible

weakened investment performance and rising insurance reserve

charges We see China Lifersquos investment asset allocation is in a worse

position compared to listed peers and we expect that the potential rise in

the ldquocostrdquo of new policies may weigh on the long-term investment return

assumption in the EV We lower 2016F EPS by 163 on a downward

adjustment in full-year investment income

We downgrade the investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo on future

investment performance pressure with a trimmed target price of HKD

1986 per share We value China Life by applying NBV multiple based

valuation technique with a 2016F NBV multiple of 59x and an assumed

COE of 105 Key downside risk includes 1 investment performance

pressure on new insurer funds and 2 unexpected A-share market

投资收益(不含公允价值变动)同比下跌 224期末年化净投资收益率为 500但

综合收益率年化仅为 369主要原因是 A 股市场的不景气所致

由于可能出现的不佳投资表现和保险准备金的上升我们预期公司未来盈利增长较为疲

由于投资表现压力我们将公司的投资评级下调至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 1986

港元我们运用新业务价值乘数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 59 倍并假设

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

We believe the market is currently pricing in an averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered

insurers which is below the investment return in their respective embedded value assumptions We utilise EV

sensitivity tables from each covered insurer to derive this implied market price expectation regarding 2016 investment return

Our analysis shows that the market seems particularly pessimistic about this yearrsquos investment performance for New China

Life which it implies a reduction of 220 bps from the baseline of 50

Downgrade on Future Investment Performance Pressure

投资表现压力引致评级下调

1Q16 EPS was down 58 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased claims amp expenses Investment income (ex FV gains) was

down 224 yoy Net the investment yield was 500 pa but the

comprehensive investment yield was merely 369 pa on poor A-share

performance during the period

We see the Companyrsquos earnings growth to be anaemic on possible

weakened investment performance and rising insurance reserve

charges We see China Lifersquos investment asset allocation is in a worse

position compared to listed peers and we expect that the potential rise in

the ldquocostrdquo of new policies may weigh on the long-term investment return

assumption in the EV We lower 2016F EPS by 163 on a downward

adjustment in full-year investment income

We downgrade the investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo on future

investment performance pressure with a trimmed target price of HKD

1986 per share We value China Life by applying NBV multiple based

valuation technique with a 2016F NBV multiple of 59x and an assumed

COE of 105 Key downside risk includes 1 investment performance

pressure on new insurer funds and 2 unexpected A-share market

综合收益率年化仅为 369主要原因是 A 股市场的不景气所致

由于可能出现的不佳投资表现和保险准备金的上升我们预期公司未来盈利增长较为疲

由于投资表现压力我们将公司的投资评级下调至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 1986

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

价值乘数并假设股本成本为 122

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

We believe the market is currently pricing in an averaged assumed investment return of 37 in 2016 for our covered

insurers which is below the investment return in their respective embedded value assumptions We utilise EV

sensitivity tables from each covered insurer to derive this implied market price expectation regarding 2016 investment return

Our analysis shows that the market seems particularly pessimistic about this yearrsquos investment performance for New China

Life which it implies a reduction of 220 bps from the baseline of 50

Downgrade on Future Investment Performance Pressure

投资表现压力引致评级下调

1Q16 EPS was down 58 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased claims amp expenses Investment income (ex FV gains) was

down 224 yoy Net the investment yield was 500 pa but the

comprehensive investment yield was merely 369 pa on poor A-share

performance during the period

We see the Companyrsquos earnings growth to be anaemic on possible

weakened investment performance and rising insurance reserve

charges We see China Lifersquos investment asset allocation is in a worse

position compared to listed peers and we expect that the potential rise in

the ldquocostrdquo of new policies may weigh on the long-term investment return

assumption in the EV We lower 2016F EPS by 163 on a downward

adjustment in full-year investment income

We downgrade the investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo on future

investment performance pressure with a trimmed target price of HKD

1986 per share We value China Life by applying NBV multiple based

valuation technique with a 2016F NBV multiple of 59x and an assumed

COE of 105 Key downside risk includes 1 investment performance

pressure on new insurer funds and 2 unexpected A-share market

deterioration

2016 年 1 季度每股盈利因投资收益的减少和保险赔付及开支的增加而同比下滑 58

投资收益(不含公允价值变动)同比下跌 224期末年化净投资收益率为 500但

综合收益率年化仅为 369主要原因是 A 股市场的不景气所致

由于可能出现的不佳投资表现和保险准备金的上升我们预期公司未来盈利增长较为疲

由于投资表现压力我们将公司的投资评级下调至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 1986

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

价值乘数并假设股本成本为 122

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

Downgrade on Future Investment Performance Pressure

投资表现压力引致评级下调

1Q16 EPS was down 58 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased claims amp expenses Investment income (ex FV gains) was

down 224 yoy Net the investment yield was 500 pa but the

comprehensive investment yield was merely 369 pa on poor A-share

performance during the period

We see the Companyrsquos earnings growth to be anaemic on possible

weakened investment performance and rising insurance reserve

charges We see China Lifersquos investment asset allocation is in a worse

position compared to listed peers and we expect that the potential rise in

the ldquocostrdquo of new policies may weigh on the long-term investment return

assumption in the EV We lower 2016F EPS by 163 on a downward

adjustment in full-year investment income

We downgrade the investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo on future

investment performance pressure with a trimmed target price of HKD

1986 per share We value China Life by applying NBV multiple based

valuation technique with a 2016F NBV multiple of 59x and an assumed

COE of 105 Key downside risk includes 1 investment performance

pressure on new insurer funds and 2 unexpected A-share market

2016 年 1 季度每股盈利因投资收益的减少和保险赔付及开支的增加而同比下滑 58

投资收益(不含公允价值变动)同比下跌 224期末年化净投资收益率为 500但

综合收益率年化仅为 369主要原因是 A 股市场的不景气所致

由于可能出现的不佳投资表现和保险准备金的上升我们预期公司未来盈利增长较为疲

本rdquo将对公司精算假设中长期投资收益率构成一定压力基于对全年投资收益的预测下

由于投资表现压力我们将公司的投资评级下调至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 1986

港元我们运用新业务价值乘数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 59 倍并假设

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

Downgrade on Future Investment Performance Pressure

投资表现压力引致评级下调

1Q16 EPS was down 58 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased claims amp expenses Investment income (ex FV gains) was

down 224 yoy Net the investment yield was 500 pa but the

comprehensive investment yield was merely 369 pa on poor A-share

performance during the period

We see the Companyrsquos earnings growth to be anaemic on possible

weakened investment performance and rising insurance reserve

charges We see China Lifersquos investment asset allocation is in a worse

position compared to listed peers and we expect that the potential rise in

the ldquocostrdquo of new policies may weigh on the long-term investment return

assumption in the EV We lower 2016F EPS by 163 on a downward

adjustment in full-year investment income

We downgrade the investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo on future

investment performance pressure with a trimmed target price of HKD

1986 per share We value China Life by applying NBV multiple based

valuation technique with a 2016F NBV multiple of 59x and an assumed

COE of 105 Key downside risk includes 1 investment performance

pressure on new insurer funds and 2 unexpected A-share market

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

价值乘数并假设股本成本为 122

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

价值乘数并假设股本成本为 122

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

Ping An Insurance (02318 HK)

ldquoBuyrdquo on Cross-selling Synergies and Valuation 基于交叉销售协同效应和估值水平维持ldquo买入rdquo

1Q16 results were driven by life insurance performance The

Companyrsquos strong growth in 1Q16 NBV was unaffected by the muted

performance in the A-share market (~SHCOMP Index down 15 during

1Q16) 1Q PampC premium income was RMB 436 billion with auto insurance

accounting for 856 with an overall combined ratio of 943

The Company continue to have a comparatively higher proportion of

universal life insurance products in the product mix but we expect

that the investment asset mix could provide some cushioning for

overall NBM Our peer companies investment performance evaluation

under normalised investment returns suggests Ping An could be an

outperformer based on current investment mix

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on the Companyrsquos

cross-selling synergies and accommodative valuation Our SOTP

based valuation technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 7338 per

share with a 2016F NBV multiple of 107x and an assumed COE of 112

for the Companyrsquos life insurance business

2016 年 1 季度业绩主要由寿险业务所推动公司期末新业务价值的增长并未受到 A 股

市场表现的影响(~上证综指 1 季度下跌 15)2016 年 1 季度财产险保费收入为人

民币 436 亿元其中车险占比 856全业务综合成本率为 943

万能险产品在公司的产品组合中占比仍然较高但我们认为公司的资产配置将为整体新

业务价值率提供一些缓冲我们对于同业上市的投资表现分析显示公司拥有高于行业平

均水平的表现

考虑到公司的交叉销售协同效应和估值水平我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级我

们运用分部加总估值方法并得出每股 7338 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 107

倍的 2016 财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 112

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

价值乘数并假设股本成本为 122

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

价值乘数并假设股本成本为 122

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

Life and PampC Performance Are Becoming Balanced 寿险和财产险表现趋于均衡

1Q16 life insurance premiums recorded strong yoy growth

particularly for the individual agent channel up 842 yoy which is

expected to lift the NBV growth momentum this year However quarterly

earnings were down 551 yoy on reduced investment income and

increased insurance liabilities

We expect CPIC Lifersquos business quality to be decent along with

improving PampC underwriting profit margin We see that the lesser

reliance on universal insurance products with a focused individual agent

distribution channel will likely to result in a sector leading NBM

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3105 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4652 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62x and an assumed COE of 122 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度寿险保费收入同比增长强劲特别是个险渠道同比增长 842预期

将会提升全年新业务价值增幅空间但 2016 年 1 季度净利润则由于投资收益的减少和

保险负债的增加而同比下降 551

我们预期公司的业务品质继续呈现良好势态并且其财产险业务的承保利润率将会有所

改善我们认为太保寿险对于万能险产品的依赖程度较低同时其销售渠道专注于个险

预期将导致行业领先的新业务利润率

我们对公司维持ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级新目标价为 3105 港元我们运用分部加总估值

方法并得出每股 4652 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016 财年新业务

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

PICC Group (01339 HK)

Downgrade to ldquoNeutralrdquo on Life Insurance Performance 由于寿险业务表现而下调投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo

PICC Life and PICC Health recorded an accounting loss of RMB 1944

million and RMB 477 million in 1Q16 respectively Moreover life and

health capital positions were weaker than PampC arm whose comprehensive

solvency margin ratios stood at 1660 and 1740 respectively implying

near-term capital replenishment may be needed

We see PICC Life is comparatively more exposed to the rising

insurance reserves risk given that it has a higher proportion of

traditional life insurance products in the product mix compared to the

other peers We see PICC Life may employ lower risk discount factors

resulting in higher insurance reserves should Chinarsquos government bond

yields continue to be low

We downgrade PICC Grouprsquos investment rating to ldquoNeutralrdquo with a

trimmed target price of HKD 326 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 632 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 57x and an assumed COE of 95 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

2016 年 1 季度人保寿险和人保健康分别录得人民币 194 亿元和人民币 48 亿元的会计

亏损另外寿险业务和健康险业务的偿付能力水平较财产险弱其综合偿付能力充足

率分别为 1660和 1740意味着可能需要资本补充计划

我们认为人保寿险对于保险准备金上升风险的敞口较上市同业要高因其传统保险业务

占比较高由于中国国债收益率的不断走低我们认为公司可能会用更低的风险折现率

从而导致保险准备金的上升

我们下调人保集团的投资评级至ldquo中性rdquo并削减目标价至每股 326 港元我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 632 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 57 倍的 2016 财

年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 95

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

PICC PampC (02328 HK)

The Only Pure PampC Play under Our Coverage Maintain ldquoBuyrdquo 覆盖行业内唯一的纯财产险投资标的维持ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

PICC PampC delivered in-line 1Q16 earnings of RMB 42 billion In

addition we see manageable negative impact on 2016F EPS due to an

expected increase in finance costs as the Company plans to issue 10-year

capital supplementary bonds in an aggregate amount of not exceeding

RMB 15 billion on April 27

We apply a fair PB valuation technique by applying a 2016F PB of 213

x Our new target price is HKD 1725 per share representing a valuation

discount of 168 to its appraisal value of HKD 2073 per share

We maintain an investment rating of ldquoBuyrdquo on valuation and a pure

PampC play We see key investment thesis and upside risks include 1

leading ROE in listed PampC insurers 2 resilient agricultural underwriting

margin 3 less exposed to interest risk as liability duration is shorter than

that of life insurers and 4 the removal of a price overhang caused by the

recent sell-off of the key foreign shareholder of AIG

中国财险 2016 年 1 季度录得符合预期的净利润人民币 42 亿元另外公司在 4 月 27

日宣布计划发行不超过人民币 150 亿元的资本补充债券我们预期上升的融资开支对

2016 财年每股盈利下降影响在可控范围内

我们对公司运用公允市净率的估值方法给予 2016 财年 213 倍的市净率新的目标价

为 1725 港元较每股 2073 港元的评估值有 168的估值折让

考虑到现有估值水平和其纯财险投资标的的属性我们维持对公司ldquo买入rdquo的投资评级

我们认为主要的投资逻辑和股价上行因素包括1 财产险行业内拥有领先的股本回报

2 农业险承保利润率预期坚挺3 负债端期限较寿险公司短利率风险较小和 4 外资

股东 AIG 减持所带来的负面影响已经基本消除

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

New China Life (01336 HK)

Implementing Protection Oriented Product Strategy

保障为主的产品策略

1Q16 results implied New China Lifersquos continuation in product shift

The Companyrsquos 1Q16 premium income was down 104 yoy

Bancassurance premiums dropped almost 30 yoy (~bancassurance

single premiums down 30 and renewal premiums down 25 yoy) On the

other hand individual life insurance business exhibited decent growth of

513 yoy in FYP which was driven by higher margin regular premium

products (~545 yoy gain)

We see New China Life is implementing a protection oriented product

strategy judging by its more frequent launches of health insurance

products We believe this product strategy will be used as a counter

measure to the potential rising insurance reserves In addition our analysis

suggests New China Lifersquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to covered peersrsquo

average

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a revised

target price of HKD 3180 per share We value New China Life by

applying NBV multiple based valuation technique with a 2016F NBV

multiple of 63x and an assumed COE of 105

2016 年 1 季度业绩表明新华保险产品组合正在持续变化公司季度保费收入同比下滑

104银保渠道保费收入同比减少接近 30(~银保趸交同比下跌 30银保期交同

比下跌 25)而个险渠道新单保费收入同比增长 513主要的推动因素是较高价值

的期交保单(~同比增幅为 545)

因为公司提高了新健康险产品的推出频率我们认为新华保险正在采取保障为主的产品

策略我们认为这种产品策略是对应可能上升的保险准备金风险的措施之一另外我

们的分析显示公司资产配置状态在投资收益率假设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 3180 港元的目标价我们运用新业务价值乘

数的估值方法2016 财年新业务价值乘数为 63 倍并假设股本成本为 105

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016

财年新业务价值乘数并假设股本成本为 96

CTIH (00966 HK)

Reiterate ldquoAccumulaterdquo with a Revised Target Price of HKD 1800 重申ldquo收集rdquo下调目标价至每股1800港元

Taiping Life and Taiping General posted RMB 11 billon and RMB 175

million in 1Q16 net profit respectively The Companyrsquos Mainland

Chinarsquos pension business incurred accounting losses whereas reinsurance

business posted relatively small net profit as the business was recently

established

As Taiping Lifersquos current business mix has a considerate proportion

of participating products comparatively speaking we see the

Company is less exposed to rising insurance reserves In addition our

analysis suggests CTIHrsquos investment asset mix is better positioned under

normalised investment return assumptions compared to the average of

covered peers

We reiterate an investment rating of ldquoAccumulaterdquo for CTIH with a

revised target price of HKD 1800 per share Our SOTP based valuation

technique yields an appraisal value of HKD 4063 per share with a 2016F

NBV multiple of 62 x and an assumed COE of 96 for the Companyrsquos life

insurance business

太平人寿和太平财产险分别录得人民币 11 亿元和人民币 175 亿元 2016 年 1 季度净利

润公司在中国内地的养老保险业务则录得会计亏损而新开设的再保险业务录得小额

盈利

由于太平人寿的产品组合中分红险产品占比较高比较来看我们认为其面临的保险准

备金上升风险敞口较低另外我们的分析显示中国太平资产配置状态在投资收益率假

设下要优于上市同业公司平均水平

我们对中国太平重申ldquo收集rdquo的投资评级并给予每股 1800 港元的目标价我们运用分

部加总估值方法并得出每股 4063 港元的评估价值我们给予寿险业务 62 倍的 2016
