PagSeguro upgraded to Buy into potential rate easing at HSBC

HSBC analyst Neha Agarwala last night upgraded PagSeguro Digital to Buy from Hold with a price target of $13, up from $10.

Given higher shares of prepayment revenues, the firm expects the company’s earnings to benefit if the Banco Central do Brasil were to embark on an easing cycle.
