19:23 EDTC, SANBanamex's market cap is not properly represented in Citigroup's, Barron's says
Spain's Banco Santander (SAN) plans to list up to 25% of its Mexican bank unit on the stock exchange. Analysts believe this could help shed light on Citigroup's (C) valuation. The U.S. bank owns Banamex, the second-biggest bank south of the border and a strong player. Nomura analyst Glenn Schorr, suggest that Banamex could be worth $15B-$20B, or roughly 17%-23% of Citigroup's market cap. Banamex, however, likely accounts for less than 10% of Citigroup's earnings and revenue, he adds. While it's difficult to put a number on Banamex's value with certainty, Barron's reports that a theoretical IPO might add $2-$3 a share -- about 10% -- to Citigroup's price. Reference Link

12:32 EDTSANEU bank stress test delayed until 2014 by regulator
The EBA agreed on recommendations to supervisors to conduct asset quality reviews on major EU banks. While banks’ capital positions were significantly strengthened under the EBA’s recapitalisation exercise, the objective of the asset quality exercises will be to review banks’ classifications and valuations of their assets so to help dispel concerns over the deterioration of asset quality due to macroeconomic conditions in Europe. Since appropriately reviewed balance sheets are a key input to an effective stress test, the EBA has also adjusted the timeline of the next EU-wide stress test so to conduct the exercise in 2014 once the asset quality reviews are completed. However, to ensure transparency and comparability over the years, the EBA will provide, in 2H, appropriate disclosure on the actual exposures of the EU banking sector. Reference Link
