Many of Australia's top brokers have been busy adjusting their financial models again, leading to the release of a number of broker notes this week.

Three ASX shares brokers have named as buys this week are listed below. Here's why they are bullish on them:

AMP Ltd (ASX: AMP)

According to a note out of Citi, its analysts have upgraded this financial services company's shares to a buy rating with an improved price target of $1.25. This follows the release of the company's FY 2023 results. The broker highlights that the company is making strides with its cost reductions and expects this to boost its earnings in the near term. The AMP share price is trading at $1.12.

Computershare Ltd (ASX: CPU)

Another note out of Citi reveals that its analysts have retained their buy rating on this administration services company's shares with an improved price target of $30.00. The broker was pleased with Computershare's performance in the first half, noting that its earnings before interest and tax coming in a touch ahead of expectations. It remains upbeat on its earnings growth prospects over the medium term. The Computershare share price is fetching $25.99 today.

CSL Ltd (ASX: CSL)

Analysts at Morgans have retained their add rating on this biotechnology giant's shares with a trimmed price target of $315.40. This follows the release of a solid half-year result which saw earnings come in ahead of consensus expectations. Morgans was pleased with the result and particularly the performance of the key CSL Behring business. And while it has trimmed its valuation to reflect the disappointing CSL112 trial failure, it still sees plenty of value on offer here. The CSL share price is trading at $283.25 on Thursday.
