What to look at in Financial Services
Asset managers, brokers, fintech, exchanges. They are not banks — look at AUM, fees and FCF quality.
- 5y revenue growth — Without growth, there is no long-term value creation
- Operating margin — Good asset managers have >30% margins thanks to scalability
- ROE — Quality financial services have a consistent ROE >15%
- FCF / Net Income — Earnings quality — >90% expected in capital-light businesses
- Debt / Equity — Fintech and brokers with high D/E are time bombs in crises
- P/E vs own 5y — Asset managers have stable multiples in well-known ranges
- Dividend yield + buybacks — These businesses return a lot of capital — look at total yield (div + buybacks)
