UPDATE - UBS initiates coverage on Wintrust Financial (Nasdaq: WTFC) with a Buy rating. PT $36.
UBS analyst says, "Chicago opportunities knock: The company has restarted its growth engines and has been actively expanding its franchise across all business lines. We expect prudent acquisitions to continue alongside organic growth. The Chicago MSA offers significant possibilities to a company such as WTFC. Increased capital deployment could support additional assets of ~$4.5B and generate EPS 31% above our current 2012 estimate."
"Credit quality remains well managed: Asset quality has remained relatively well managed versus Midwest competitors and, even more specifically, against Chicago-based peers. We conservatively estimate that WTFC is more than 6.2% through the loss recognition phase of this cycle."
