2025年，村镇银行加速被合并。这一轮村镇银行改革与农信社改革在时间上出现"并行状态"，有些地区 村镇银行被直接并入农信机构统一法人范畴，有些农信机构在吸收合并村镇银行后可能后续还会继续参 与本省农信社改革。上述改革对于村镇银行的发展会产生何种影响？村镇银行自设立以来，监管政策多 次优化，村镇银行本身也呈现出多样化发展情况，未来村镇银行是否形成差异化发展态势？村镇银行如 何坚守支农支小定位，更好地服务县域乡村经济？就这些问题，《金融时报》记者近日采访了中国村镇 银行发展论坛秘书长蒋勇。 蒋勇：村镇银行改革的主要目的是化解风险，通过重组、兼并等方式处置高风险机构，降低不良贷款 率。村镇银行改革的结果是数量减少，主发起银行增资控股，整体抗风险能力增强。但是在实际操作 中，部分省份采取了"一刀切"的政策，不论村镇银行的经营好坏，一律都改制为省内城商行、农商行的 分支机构，此举未必是上上策。农信社改革则更注重体制机制优化，通过省级统筹整合资源，提升服务 乡村振兴能力。一些省农信统一法人后，也把村镇银行列入统一法人范畴，这样的处理方式在一定程度 上有利于统筹资源，增强了省级农商银行的实力，但也可能留下了小微企业、"三农 ...
