高盛:內險首季新業務價值增長強勁 上調新華保險(1336.HK)等股評級
高盛發表報吿表示,認為首季強勁的新業務價值(VONB)增長將使投資者對內地人壽保險公司的增長前景充滿信心;自2020年以來投資收益率前景改善,推動估值重估。而大多數投資者同意首季度增長強勁,但保險公司的謹慎前景,令投資者對今年下半年的增長擔憂。鑑於保護範圍的滲透率較低與潛在市場的規模,越來越多的投資者憂慮需求持續疲軟。高盛將新華保險(1336.HK)評級由沽售上調至中性;財產險需求彈性,將人保(1339.HK)從中性升級至買入。
報吿指,除了對內險公司收入不確定性的擔憂外,還看到需求恢復疲軟的結構性原因,包括相對較高重大疾病(CI)保單的滲透率;由公共醫療體系提供基本醫療擴大覆蓋範圍。
該行指,在短期內,認為較高收入的地區的需求復甦更快。其中消費者可能已經購買重大疾病計劃,計劃解決其覆蓋範圍中的任何缺口。對於保險公司而言,這將需著重提高現有保單持有人的覆蓋面。為此相信需要高質量的代理人和全面的增值服務。高盛表示,涵蓋的股票中,鑑於通過內地及香港業務,其高端市場的覆蓋率,認為友邦保險(1299.HK)在中國內地的業務表現最強。中國人壽保險公司通常在大眾市場,受到需求不確定性的影響。在這些公司中,該行認為中國平安(2318.HK)的定位佳,由於其生產力更高的代理團隊和全面的增值服務產品。
另外,中國人壽(2628.HK)去年基數較高,投資者擔心與同業潛在的增長差異較大,但是由於大多數壽險公司錄得個位數的增長,因此認為差距可能會縮小,並且估值與其最接近的同行相比具有吸引力,尤其是中國太保(2601.HK)。
報吿指,鑑於2021財年預期的壽險保費收入下降,將首選壽險公司,而不是財產險公司;由於汽車保險改革,財產險承保利潤率上升,相信不確定性持續,對於相比人壽保險公司,對財產險和意外傷害險的需求非常彈性。
