Investment banking in Asia has been affected by weak earnings forecasts in the profits of targets (thus resulting in fewer large deals), increased capital adequacy regulation from regulators (so less liquidity they can put into deals which results in a reduced risk appetite for deals) and the general weak macro economy. The confluence of these factors have could be part of the reason for the reduction in general merger and acquisition activity in Asia.

“Basel III” is familiar as the outcome of the financial crash of 2008. Western governments demanded almost instantaneous reaction to the bailout of some of its largest banks (no Asia-Pacific bank had to be nationalised) but it was the entire global economy that ended up with the higher capital and liquidity requirements associated worldwide with the name of a small town in Switzerland. And now the world’s banks have to gear up for these more onerous demands of the regulator.

Banks in Asia Pacific have traditionally processed corporate actions on an end-of-day or even a T+1 basis but due to market and regulatory changes, are looking to move to an intra-day process.
