Kotak’s small lending business gives it some strong advantages: it can grow at a rapid pace despite slowing growth in the system.

Best investment bank play

Kotak’s high exposure to capital markets is positive, and is a solid structural bull story in that space. India’s demographic changes and strong growth should produce a surge in the addressable market for retail and wholesale capital market services and that this segment will experience strong growth. Kotak, with its market leadership in broking and capital markets, is one of the best listed plays on this theme.

India’s savings rate has been rising consistently since 1999, and it is now at 29% vs 22% ten years ago. Rising household savings has been a key driver, expanding from 14% of GDP to 22% between 1986 and 2006. As a result, the total stock of household savings rose at a 12% CAGR over 1996–2006. The capital markets and investment services are natural beneficiaries of this trend. The Indian middle-class has traditionally favoured government-guaranteed fixed-income investments. As disposable incomes rise, particularly for younger people, those investments have started to lose their attractiveness vis-à-vis riskier equity-related investments.

Kotak is well geared to exploit that with a full suite of investment services: retail broking, mutual funds, life insurance, portfolio management and wealth management.

This gives Kotak a very strong advantage. Kotak’s each product appeals to different segments of the market – a full suite helps Kotak retain customers. Moreover, the product-neutral wealth-management service provides the added advantage of being able to sell third-party mutual fund products, which ensures that the product providers and the marketing machine operate independently and can capture a larger part of customer flows.

Well placed to withstand competition

Kotak has a strong brand name and many strengths.

Branding: Although some of the new entrants are formidable brands, Kotak enjoys unique branding as a specialist investment house. This should continue to give it a headstart in the market, especially in the western region.

Incumbent advantage – reach and franchisees.: Kotak is already present in 60 cities, having rolled out its network. With real estate costs having risen sharply during the past few years, new players will have to fight to match Kotak’s reach. In addition, Kotak’s franchisee network has already been locked-in – new players may find that the best "target" franchisees are already gone. Even if they manage to lure some franchisees away from Kotak, that will take time and may succeed only to a limited extent.

Commercial banking licence: Kotak’s commercial banking licence is a very strong differentiator. It allows the bank to seamlessly sell both assets and liabilities – linked financial products – and provides it with a natural reach and customer acquisition platform. Kotak is one of the few banks to have a strong suite of investment products. Most brokers do not have bank licences, and most banks do not have strong broking businesses.

Synergy across businesses: The other strong advantage for Kotak is its holding structure, which gives it a strong synergy across businesses. With almost all the businesses held as 100% subsidiaries, Kotak responds to a central command and control structure much better than in other similar conglomerates.

Valuation

In FY 2008, we expect Kotak to register EPS of Rs 28.5 In FY 2009, this EPS is likely to rise to Rs 38.8. The share price trades at Rs 961. While the P/E on FY 2008 EPS is 33.6, it falls to 25 on FY 2009 EPS.
