| SINGAPORE (Sept 26): United Overseas Bank& rsquo s near-term loans growth is not expected to be affected by trade war and property cooling measures, say analysts. Between 10-15% of UOB& rsquo s loans book is trade related with the bulk anchored out of South-East Asia. UOB has the largest percentage of Singapore loans (2Q18: 52% of total loans) compared to DBS (47%) and OCBC (41%), and the least exposure to Greater China loans (2Q18: 15% of total loans) as compared to DBS (16%) and OCBC (26%). Hence, analysts do not expect the trade war to pose significant risks to trade loans growth unless it escalates into an overall global slowdown. In UOB, 50% of total loans are related to property compared to 42% at DBS and OCBC each. Meanwhile, mortgage-related loans make up 27% of total loans at UOB while building and construction make up the remaining 23%. Due to drawdowns of previously approved loans, weakness in the property-related loan market may only be felt next year and lending to the property developer market is expected to hold up in the short-term. To put things into context, for UOB to miss their full-year loans growth target by 1% point, housing loans and building and construction loans would have to contract 3-4% y-o-y, says Phillip Capital analyst Tin Min Ying in a Wednesday report. Taking into account near-term uncertainties in trade and expectation of a more moderate pace in property transaction volumes, Phillip is forecasting loans growth of 8.4% and 5.9% for FY18F and FY19F respectively. In addition, rising interest rates are not expected to have near-term impact on Non-Performing Loans (NPL) given unemployment is the driving factor on defaults on housing loans, not interest rates, says Phillip. UOB also assess housing loans using a 3.5% rate on loan repayment, higher than the current interest rate level. Average LTV (Loan-to-Value) in mortgages is 60%. Some examples of credit considerations by UOB include approval of loan only upon certain percentage of units sold, disbursements according to percentage sales and completion, ring-fencing of proceeds from project, track record of sales history of past projects from same developer to assess potential demand of current project, haircuts on LTV to determine loan amount etc. In addition, 80% of UOB& rsquo s loan book is pegged to floating rate, and the remaining 20% is pegged to fixed rates. Meanwhile, the Oil & Gas sector no longer a cause for asset quality concerns. The O& G sector has stabilised, but is unlikely to see consistent recoveries every quarter, says Tin. In fact, O& G non-performing assets were brought down to 10% of its asset value as the collateral value for recovery. & ldquo Maintain & lsquo & rsquo buy& rsquo with target price of $33.70 based on the Gordon Growth Model,& rdquo says Tin |

The more trade deals the US successfully negotiated outside of China will (IMO) enbolden US to take tough actions on China.  Especially with US Trade Rep Lighthizer thrown in the equation.

Game of Market Makers vs Market Makers.........some to push up for window dressing, while the other took the opportunity to off load at good prices.
FOMC also very good, give Trump face in not announcing rate hike on 1st day of meeting.

" .......................Walt Whitman Rostow and the then Prime Minister of Singapore Lee Kuan Yew have argued that the U.S. intervention in Indochina, by giving the nations of ASEAN time to consolidate and engage in economic growth, prevented a wider domino effect.[19]
................."
That and a series of events including Deng XP coming to Singapore and meeting LKY and Deng subsequent controlling of China and decided to focus more in China' s development helped to stop the spread of communism in SEA.  Communism were very popular to the poor people, SEA at that time were full of very very poor people.  The threat was very real then.
