Sarina Lesmina, CFA First digibank taking off


sarina.lesmina@clsa.com Ready for high growth phase; initiate coverage with BUY
+62 21 5088 7820
Bank Jago (Jago), the first digital bank in Indonesia, has exciting milestones ahead
post the launch of the first phase of its app in April 2021. In the near future, the
bank will enter a hyper-growth phase, especially with Gojek as a key ecosystem
partner. Strong capital base post the rights issue would help reduce funding risk.
More importantly, management has a strong track record, which would ensure a
smoother path to profitability. We initiate coverage with BUY recommendation
and target price of Rp17,100 (based on 1.5x PE/G multiple).

Jago launched the first version of its digital banking app in Apr-21 for basic banking
Indonesia products. It has more products to be launched in the pipeline, including a
Financial services collaboration with its key ecosystem partner, Gojek, which will accelerate customer
acquisition at lower costs. The merger of Gojek and Tokopedia will propel this

Exciting milestones ahead


Transforming into a digital The current controlling shareholders (PT Metamorfosis Ekosistem Indonesia and
bank Wealth Track Technology Ltd) acquired the previously-named Bank Arto in
December 2019 from founders (Arto Hardy and family). Subsequently, the name
(and logo) changed to Bank Jago in June 2020. Thus, began the transformation of
the bank into a pure digital bank.

First phase app launched in Post the second rights issue as of the end of March 2021 (that raised Rp7tn), Jago
April 2021 launched its first digital (mobile-based) app on 15 April 2021, followed by additional
features since then. Jago targets 2m customers in the first year of operation.
Number of account on-boarded through the app is undisclosed. Jago said it is still
very small given the app was just recently launched.

For Life Finance Solution Currently, the so-called Life Finance Solution (LFS) key features are savings (and
deposits), transaction (transfer, bill payments, e-wallet top-up, payment in
ecommerce), group-based transactions (ie, share ‘pockets’, etc), bill payment
reminder, and digital debit card (Visa and GPN (national payment gateway)-
enabled).

Some interesting and The pocket sharing (with spending or viewing only access) is unique, and so is the
unique features “Lock pocket” feature (explained later). We also found the bill payment reminder
feature easy to use and reliable, albeit this is not unique to Jago.

In the pipeline
More products for LFS q More products/services for LFS, such as auto-save feature (note: perhaps
similar to “Dream Saver” of Jenius app from BTPN), QRIS (standardised QR
payment), split bill, budget setting and tracking, investment-related products,
cash withdrawal from ATMs worldwide, etc.

Integration to Gojek q Integration/collaboration with Gojek is targeted to be in early 3Q21, pending


platform regulator’s approval. While the agreement between Jago and Gojek is not
exclusive, we agree with Jago that it will also be a strong partnership, beyond
just collaboration in operation as Gojek is a shareholder with 21.4% stake and
sees Jago as an opportunity to have a long-term strategic partnership with a
bank.

To accelerate customer Obviously, the big upside for Jago will be from this collaboration. Gojek has 20-
acquisition at lower cost 21m monthly active users (MAU) and GoPay e-wallet at 11m. Jago would also
likely benefit from the merging of Gojek and Tokopedia, given the much larger
user base and merchants, albeit there are of course overlaps between Gojek and
Tokopedia customers.

There is synergy in various financial services (savings, transactions, lending, etc)


to Gojek’ users, merchants, and drivers. This also means lower user acquisition
cost. It will not be a revenue-sharing scheme as Jago also owns part of the bank.

ecosystem, eg, Gojek. For the Micro-SME loans, Jago thinks average loan is
ideally Rp1-2bn and will mostly be supply chain financing. This product is called
Business Finance Solution (BFS) by Jago.

Wealth management, etc q On investment-related products, Jago is open to potential expansion to asset
management and life insurance, but will do things in stages.

Lending partners boost near-term loan growth


Engines of growth Jago mentioned that lending through these lending partners will be a growth driver
for the initial two years. The next driver is lending through the ecosystem (ie, Gojek)
– for mid-to-longer term.

Disbursed loans through While the “digital lending through app” is not ready yet, Jago has disbursed some
lending partners since last loans since 2020 through ~10 lending partners (under a B2B2C model, ie, Jago
year becomes an institutional lender for these fintech platforms. These include
Investree, Kredit Pintar, GoFin (of Gojek), AkuLaku, and AdaKami.

Strong growth in new loans Loan accounts grew to 600k+ in March 2021 from <1k in 2019, with O/S loan
growing 54% YTD (to March 2021) to Rp1.1tn under this B2B2C model.

Winding down legacy loan The bank has also cleaned up legacy (SME) loans (ie, existing loans pre-acquisition
of Bank Arto by Jago). As a result, the balance has more than halved since 2018.

Strong loan growth pa in Jago expects Rp600-700bn increase in total O/S loans QoQ in 2Q21. Hence, it
medium term guided for Rp3-4tn loan disbursement this year (assuming Covid-19 situation is
stable). For the first 2-3 years, it foresees O/S loans can at least double every year
(supported by ecosystem and partnership, and also strong capital), and to grow 20-
30% after 5 years. We forecast 175% Cagr in 21-23CL, with Rp4tn for 21CL.

To balance between Micro- Jago stated that it wants to strike a balance between SME and Consumer in its
SME and mass consumer portfolio, but reckons that Consumer loan may grow bigger, because of the sizeable
loans market. That said, there is also a large addressable market in Micro-SME. BRI’s data
shows >60m potential ultra-Micro segment, while government data shows up to
two-third of the 63m Micro-SMEs or 42m do not have access to formal financing.

Fee income to be minimal in As a “start-up”, fee-income will be minimal given the need to attract users:

q Zero monthly admin fee for Savings account. Zero fee if account is dormant.
Minimal account balance can be zero (typical conventional banks require at least
Rp50k). Three digital and physical debit cards for free.

q 25 monthly quota for free interbank transfer and top-up e-wallet (Dana, GoPay,
Ovo, ShopeePay, and LinkAja). If exceeded, a Rp3k/transaction charge applies.
Based on our channel checks, this quota is more than enough for most people.

q Five monthly quota for free cash withdrawal in other banks’ ATM. If exceeded,
charge is Rp7,500/transaction (“ATM Bersama”).

Digital banks will have Other digital banks generally also waive a lot of fees. For instance, the newly
similar strategy launched “Motion Banking” by MNC Group also waives monthly admin fee (Note:
usually ~Rp11-17k in conventional banks). “Jenius” from BTPN waived admin fee,
but imposed Rp10k starting January 2021. There is also free quota for interbank
transfer.

We forecast fee-based to be ~2% of operating income in medium term. Sources will


be from “Pay bills” (at Rp1k/transaction), API (application programming interface),
loan admin fee (if charged), and legacy loans. Jago expects increase in transactions
and wealth management products can push more growth. Note that typical large
banks under our coverage have ~15-18% fee as % of operating income.

“Subsidy” needed in near Our assumption is the current promotions on fees would remain in the medium term
term given more competitors are entering the playing field. It remains to be seen if the
new admin fee for “Jenius” will have an impact on CASA growth. This is because
digital banks’ target segment is mostly young people and mass market – which can
be more price sensitive.

Monetisation through Jago gives no limit for online intra-bank transaction to induce “stickiness” of users.
transaction and lending Lending is also a key monetisation way. Coupled with good credit scoring and risk
management, sustainable margin and low opex would more than compensate the
minimal fee-based income.

Targeting sustainable high-single-digit margin


Large capital base reduces Given its large capital base, Jago does not really need retail funding to support its
funding cost risk growth in the next three years. This reduces funding cost risk given competition for
funding among new digital banks will intensify.

But, to eventually build However, Jago does want to build a funding franchise eventually. Obviously, it
retail funding franchise cannot compete with conventional banks where the large ones generally have <=1%
CASA cost. Jago offers 3.5% Savings rate. Additionally, for “Spending” Pocket, it
offers 0.5% rate. Some competitors such as Neo Commerce promise up to 6%
savings rate and 8% deposit rate.

Unique deposit-like feature Jago’s “Lock Pocket” feature offers 3.5-4.25% interest rate, with duration and
amount (or target) as variables. For minimum Rp100k and 1 month tenor, rate is
3.5%. Users can specify lock duration based on date or months. Unlike conventional
deposit, users can add money within the lock period and get the same interest rate.

Large incumbents banks currently offer <3% time deposit rate, with smaller banks
at 3-4.5%. Jago said it will still launch a full-time deposit feature in the future.

Targeting 3.5-4.5% CASA ratio is 26% as of 1Q21. As Jago builds its transaction franchise, we believe
sustainable cost of funds CASA ratio can rise, albeit likely it will take years before it can reach 50%. Most
importantly is overall cost of funds (1Q21: 3.5%), where Jago aims for a sustainable
3.5-4.5%. Our forecast is 3.7-4.3% over 21/23CL.

A BUKU III (Book III) bank Its status as BUKU III bank post the latest rights issue should give more confidence
to depositors.

First digibank taking off Bank Jago - BUY

13-14% lending yield Given the target segment is mass market and SME, Jago believes lending rates
should be higher than Corporate/Commercial. Current loan obtained via lending
partners yields 14% for Jago (while the partners typically charge the borrowers at
~30%).

Aspire for sustainable high- We believe pricing in this segment will be very competitive as more players (be it
single-digit NIM incumbent banks or pure digital banks) enter. Hence, the key is for Jago to manage
liquidity and funding cost. This includes setting a strong track record in lending.
Key is managing cost of
fund amidst competition
On liquidity, given large capital, more than 100% LDR should not be an issue. But,
as a bank, Jago thinks 150-160% will still be a level tolerated by the regulator as
long as there is capital buffer and good operational metrics. All in all, taking into
account pricing competition and our cost of funds assumption, we believe NIM to
be 7.9/8.6/8.8% in 21/22/23CL. The YoY increase in 22CL is also driven by
continuing wind down of legacy loans.

Building good risk management


Cleaning the slate Cleaning up legacy loans was relatively fast. When Jago acquired Bank Artos in
December 2019, total loan was Rp285bn, but lots of portfolio is NPL. Then, with
~10% write-off ratio in 2019, NPL declined to 2% from 6.2% before.

Keeping some legacy loans Because of the clean-up, restructured loan fell to 6.2% of loan in 1Q21 from 9.3%
that are good in 2020. Jago mentioned some of these are back to normal along with the economic
recovery, but some will need another restructuring, while the rest maybe written-
off. Basically, good legacy loans (SME, property, etc) will be kept.

Monitoring performance Current NPL is 0% (as of 2020), because of asset clean up, but mostly because of
new loans. Obviously, it is not realistic to assume 0% NPL to be sustainable as
lending comes at a risk. For the loans already in the book, the key is close monitoring
to prevent slippage. This is because 93% of the book is loans having <12 months
remaining maturity, with 41% of loans with <3 months maturity.

Will not be rosy, but We believe lending is the key testing ground for digital banks, be it for a hybrid bank
preparing a robust credit or a pure digital bank like Jago. The company itself believes it will not rosy, but is
scoring model building what it hopes to be a good credit scoring model.

Through partners, but q It will be leveraging on transaction data of partners and ecosystem, with
setting own parameters parameters set by Jago and adjusted over time. For instance, Gojek’s drivers and
merchants’ transaction data would see average cashflow in past 15 months to
approximate “capacity to pay” a loan. For drivers, working experience can also
be one of the parameters.

“Direct-debit” approach q For Consumer loan, that is generally unsecured, Jago said it may also apply a
‘direct debit’ approach such as asking ecosystem partners (Gojek, Tokopedia) to
take a % cut of a merchant or driver income before passing to them. This cut
can be used for loan instalment.

Some collaterals for Micro- q Micro-SME loans will be generally secured by deposits/savings or registered
SME loan mortgages or other guarantees acceptable to the bank.

Find a balance between q We think balancing between convenience for consumers and protection is
convenience and security important. Jago said preventive measures include using hackers to do system
security checks (as was done in BTPN’ Jenius). There is also a fraud detection
team. Jago mentioned that cloud-based infra means it is also in the interest of
cloud providers to protect their data. This saves costs on firewalls.

Based on our channel checks, account opening approval was very fast and easier
(less input fields) than some of the other banks. However, biometric technology
helps, and identity verification needs users to enter ID numbers as well.

Prefers low risk portfolio, q The bank reckons 3% NPL in the long run is within risk appetite. Jago does not
even though lower yield want to aim for high risk loan that yields 20%+ but with 5% NPL. Hence, the
bank aims for 1.5-2.5% credit cost (Note: 1Q21 2.2%). In 2019-20, to build
coverage, the bank booked one-off elevated credit costs. It raised NPL coverage
to 572% in 2019. In 2020, NPL was booked at 0%. Provision balance rose 2.5x
to Rp81bn, and to Rp125bn in 1Q21.

In the next few years, because of the hyper growth phase, we foresee NPL ratio
should be below 2%, and NPL coverage to be >100%. Our credit cost is 1.4-2%

Initiate with a BUY rating


Spending upfront capex Jago foresees IT capex this year to be US$20m, higher than US$15m in 2020. For
next 3-5 years, annual capex is estimated at US$15-20m. When it first set up the
business, Jago spent US$75m in the first nine months.

Easy to scale up Unlike in traditional banks, upfront IT investment with cloud-based infra is not big
and easily scalable. Taking lessons learned from Jenius (Note: some of Jago’s
management were ex-BTPN), Jago did not buy its tech off-the-shelf in the
beginning – which it deems as limiting fast roll-out time and customisation (Jenius
now has 3m customers but after 4 years).

Separately, regulators’ audit ability will not be compromised as long as they can look
at the service level agreements.

To have low opex and Being a pure digital bank will also give opex advantage vs traditional banks.
steady-state CIR at 30-35% However, as the company is adding personnel and G&A costs, a targeted steady
state 30-35% cost to income ratio (CIR) will only be achieved in year 5-6. Our CIR
forecast is a 120/48% for 21/22CL. Jago expects 60-70% YoY opex growth this year
– mostly because some of new employees only joined in 4Q20.

Minimal physical presence As of 1Q21, Jago has 2 branches, 3 sub-branches, and 1 cash office. Some branches
will still be needed to show presence, maybe at most 10 in the next 5 years. But,
overall cost to serve customers will be very small as >95% of customers will be
digital-banking’ customers. Large incumbent conventional banks currently run at
~42-47% CIR.

Jago previously mentioned that it will monitor ratio between capex investments
against revenue. It should gradually fall with revenue growth.

Can leverage on Gojek’s While building up its brand, Jago believes that it can also leverage on Gojek’s brand
brand to reach users. Hence, it can suppress promotional cost. The bank will also use more
social media for advertising and promotional activities as it is much more affordable
vs traditional channels (ie, Rp80bn per year for billboard).

Minimal promotion at the Given large capital, Jago said it will not be too aggressive in doing promotional
moment activities at the moment. There was a ‘wheels of fortune’ cash handout a few
months ago, and some cashback programs.

Latest promotion was a cashback up to Rp100k for debit card usage for minimum
Rp100k transaction value (with minimum balance of Rp1m in user account). We
estimated that the cashback budget for this was Rp300m (as only 3,000 eligible
transactions/day can get cashback of maximum Rp20k during 28 May 2021 – 1
June 2021).

In terms of shareholding structure, controlling shareholders (41.5% stake) are: PT


Metamorfosis Ekosistem Indonesia, and Wealth Track Technology Ltd. Gojek
(through PT Dompet Karya Anak Bangsa) owns 21.4%, with GIC (of Singapore)
buying 9.12% stake during the latest rights issue.

Capital to support hyper Post the second rights issue in March 2021 (Note: first rights issue in March 2020),
growth phase tier 1 capital rose to ~Rp8tn from Rp1tn in December 2020. CAR rose to 538%
from 91%. With the asset growth that we projected, CAR will fall, but still to ~40%
in 23CL which is ample. In line with Jago’s forecast, we believe the bank does not
need another rights issue in the next three years.

A head-start vs peers Jago has about a one year head-start vs other aspiring digital banks, and with Gojek
as an ecosystem partner. Based on our channel checks, most of these banks will
have to raise funds to raise capital to comply with the regulator’s requirement. In
2020, OJK (Financial Services Authority) raised the minimum capital requirement of

commercial banks (except for bank that is subsidiary of a bank) from Rp1tn to Rp2tn
by the end of 2021, and Rp3tn by the end of 2022.

At the same time, it is likely that most of these banks are in process of cleaning up
legacy loans.

Aim to be profitable within two years


Narrowing loss We believe Jago is on the path to breakeven by the end of 22CL. 1Q21 net loss was
Rp38bn. We forecast FY earnings loss to narrow from Rp189bn in 2020 to Rp95bn
in 21CL.

The bank itself wants to be able to breakeven as soon as possible. The reason is
while a separate licence for pure digital bank is not needed (ie, a commercial bank
licence of at least BUKU II bank is enough), it likely also means the regulator will
monitor digital banks similarly as commercial banks – hence it will be subjected to
similar prudent measures.

Shorter time to breakeven In Asian Bankers Research, the years for digital banks to be profitable has become
for newer digibanks shorter to around 2 years compared to over 4 years for first generation ones (mostly
in Japan such as Sony, Japan Net, and Rakuten Bank). This may be due to technology
advancement as well as growing demands.

By comparison, digital banks in Australia are not expected to become profitable


within two years such as Judo Bank and Volt.

Good for Jago, if it can do It will be encouraging if Jago can reach breakeven within the time frame of the
this successful digital banks in the world, while attracting more and more customers.

As comparison, founded in 2013, Nubank, a super successful Brazil-based digital


bank (with US$25bn valuation) is yet to reach breakeven. However, it did record a
26% lower net loss in FY20 (US$61m) vs 2019. The company expanded to Mexico
in March 2020, and Colombia in October 2020, and Argentina is next target. This
maybe the reason that the focus is still on rapid expansion.

WeBank and MyBank are Chinese-backed digibanks WeBank, MYBank, and XWBank reportedly have become
top 2 in China profitable in ~2 years. According to Hans Fan, CLSA Head of China Financials
Research in his report China fintech (WeBank vs MyBank), there are ~20 digibanks
in China, but the top 2 are WeBank (30% owned by Tencent) and MyBank (30%
owned by Ant Group). WeBank is China’s first digital bank, established in December
2014 and turned profitable in 2016. MyBank was established in May 2015.

WeBank and MyBank booked 88% and 42% earnings Cagr over 2016-2020
respectively. ROE was 26.7% for WeBank and 11.7% for MyBank in 2020.

Both are integral part of Hans Fan noted that part of the success is because WeBank and MyBank are an
ecosystem integral part of the fintech ecosystem of Tencent and Ant Group.

Separately, Kakao Bank reported US$102m profit in 2020 (up 8x YoY) after 2 years
in operation.

Jago’s ROE to grow strong Supported by asset and earnings growth, we forecast Jago’s ROE to gradually rise
from -2% in 21CL to 8.4% in 23CL. Jago aims for sustainable ROE at 22-25% with
18% tier 1 capital.

No dividend until 2024 Jago stated that it will not pay dividend until 2024 (as stated in the deal prospectus).

Risks
Start-up risk In the current condition, other than macro-related risk (ie, Covid-19 situation,
economy recovery, etc), the main risk for Bank Jago is on ensuring that operation
and collaboration with key partners and ecosystem (ie, Gojek as main one) is
growing strong and is healthy (ie, minimal asset quality issue).

Competition risk While Jago has a first-mover advantage, there is rising competition from other
digital banks in the making as well as digital products/services of large established
incumbents. Hence, competition will intensify. Recently, we wrote about a non-
bank newcomer in the digibank space, LINE (the messaging app) - Indonesian banks
(LINE enters digital bank race). Our view is not all aspiring digital banks will be
successful. Those that have that backing of large financiers, or ecosystem have a
higher chance to succeed.

Regulatory risk As of now, a separate licence for a pure digital bank is not needed (ie, only a
commercial bank licence in BUKU II capital category). However, a digital bank will
need OJK approval (as bank’s supervisory body) on product offerings, and also from
Bank Indonesia (as governing body for payment system). Delay in approvals from
the regulators will push back new products launching.

On the capital side, OJK is reviewing potential change again to minimum capital
requirement for banks. It may include regulations pertaining to digital banks, on
data management, tech management, risk management, cyber security, and
collaboration with platforms.

BUY with Rp17,100 target price


c.40% upside We value Jago based on 1.5x PE/G multiple, at a discount to 1.64x market-cap

This discount in PE/G multiple for valuing Jago vs the benchmark reflects our view
of Jago’s nascent stage as a full digital bank, while also taking into account Covid-
19 uncertainty.

The PE/G derived target Our Rp17,100 target price is based on mid-22-23CL EPS given we are already in
price is based on mid-22- mid-2021. Our TP implies 28x 22CL PB. Jago currently trades at ~20x 22CL PB.

Peer valuation is not that relevant at this point given: 1) equity will change
dramatically post rights issue, and so will the loan book, and 2) no consensus
forecasts.

Sustaining high valuation For the longer term, when growth reaches a sustainable normal level, valuation will
depend on sustainable ROE of Jago. Using banks under our coverage as reference,
those with higher ROE generally command higher valuation.

Valuation details
We value Bank Jago based on 1.5x PE/G multiple, at a discount to 1.64x market-
cap weighted PE/G of banks under our coverage. The discount is to reflect the
nascent stage of Jago in operating as a full digital bank. We also take into account
Covid-19 uncertainty.

Investment risks
In the current condition, main risk for Bank Jago is on ensuring that operation and
collaboration with key partners and ecosystem (i.e. Gojek as main one) runs
smoothly. That the hypergrowth phase in medium term will not result in bad asset
quality down the line. While Jago has a first-mover advantage, there is rising
competition from other digital banks in the making as well as digital
products/services of large established incumbents. Aside from that, an investment
in Bank Jago entails risks primarily linked to macro factors (growth, inflation,
interest rate) and political (stability, legal) for Indonesia that are likely to affect both
the earnings generated and multiples paid for its shares.
