He doesn’t own this, but he owns comparable banks. The whole global banking sector is trading at very cheap multiples. They are all under pressure from the flattening yield curve, and they all pay hefty dividends. The bank’s poor performance is sector-driven more than driven by the political issues in the countries where it does business.
A very unique global franchise. A Spanish bank, but is all over South and Latin America, with a big franchise in the UK and Europe. Not very expensive, trading at slightly below BV. Spain and Europe are coming back. Banks are a proxy for the economies. The value of the franchise in Latin America over the next 10-20 years is fantastic. A premier retail bank in these areas.
