base (Tier 1 as of 1Q 2015: c.24%) which in turn should likely lead to robust growth going

forward (SFC 2014-16E EPS CAGR 23%). Furthermore, while the financing portfolio is well

diversified (c.18% exposure to low-risk government/quasi government segment), the bank

operates at an efficient cost-structure (Cost to Income 1Q 2015: 42.8% vs. c.49.8% for the

in the face of aggressive price competition from other banks. We will be monitoring this closely over remainder of the year. All in all, we focus on Alinma’s positives (solid capital base, attractive growth outlook, diversified financing portfolio, efficient cost structure and reasonable valuation) and maintain our Buy rating with an unchanged target price of
