Core Viewpoint - A significant wave of risk level adjustments in the public fund industry has emerged since September, with nearly 20 fund companies issuing over 20 adjustment announcements, affecting hundreds of products. The adjustments primarily involve raising risk levels, with many previously considered "stable" bond funds and "fixed income+" products being upgraded from R2 (medium-low risk) to R3 (medium risk), and some high-volatility equity funds being raised to R4 (medium-high risk) [1][3][8]. Group 1: Adjustment Trends - Since September, nearly 20 fund companies have issued 22 related announcements, a significant increase compared to previous months, which averaged single-digit announcements [3][4]. - Major fund companies involved in these adjustments include Huazhang Fund, Fuguo Fund, and others, with many products seeing risk level increases [2][3]. - The adjustments are not limited to fund companies; banks and third-party sales channels are also involved in synchronizing these changes [5][6]. Group 2: Regulatory and Market Drivers - The core drivers of the risk level adjustments are regulatory requirements and market changes, particularly the implementation of the "Commercial Bank Agency Sales Business Management Measures" which took effect on October 1 [8][10]. - The new regulations require sales institutions to ensure that product risks match the risk tolerance of clients, leading to a more rigorous assessment of fund products [8][10]. - Market volatility has also contributed to the adjustments, with some funds experiencing significant net value fluctuations, prompting a reassessment of their risk characteristics [8][12]. Group 3: Impact on Investors - The adjustments have direct and profound implications for fund investors, necessitating a reevaluation of their risk tolerance in light of the new risk levels [11][13]. - Investors will receive notifications regarding changes in risk characteristics, prompting them to reassess whether these "more dangerous" funds align with their risk profiles [12][13]. - New subscription and investment plans will be restricted if the adjusted risk levels exceed the investors' assessed risk tolerance, serving as a protective measure [13].

Core Viewpoint - A significant wave of risk level reassessment has swept through the public fund industry, with nearly 20 fund companies issuing over 20 adjustment announcements since September, affecting hundreds of products. The adjustments primarily involve raising risk levels, with many previously considered "stable" bond funds and "fixed income+" products being upgraded from R2 (medium-low risk) to R3 (medium risk), and some high-volatility equity funds being raised to R4 (medium-high risk) [1][5][6]. Summary by Sections Adjustment Trends - Since September 2025, the frequency of risk level adjustment announcements in public funds has significantly increased, with major fund companies like Huazhang Fund and Fuguo Fund announcing adjustments for multiple products, primarily raising risk levels [3][5]. - For instance, Huazhang Fund announced on October 20 that 17 of its funds would have their risk levels raised, with bond funds moving from R2 to R3 and several equity funds from R3 to R4 [3][5]. - Fuguo Fund also reported on October 9 that 28 out of 31 funds would see their risk levels increased, with 20 funds moving from R2 to R3 and 8 from R3 to R4 [3][5]. Involvement of Sales Channels - The adjustments are not limited to fund companies; banks and third-party sales channels are also involved. For example, CITIC Bank adjusted the risk ratings of 17 asset management products, with some being downgraded and others upgraded [5][6]. - Other banks, such as Agricultural Bank and Construction Bank, have also made similar adjustments to their sold public fund products [6]. Regulatory and Market Drivers - The core drivers of these risk level adjustments are regulatory requirements and market changes. The implementation of the "Commercial Bank Agency Sales Business Management Measures" in October 2025 has been a direct catalyst for banks to adjust risk levels [7][8]. - Market volatility has also played a role, with some thematic funds showing significant performance but increased net value volatility, prompting a reassessment of risk levels [8]. Dynamic Risk Assessment Process - The process for adjusting risk levels involves a combination of third-party evaluations and the fund managers' assessments, with a tendency to adopt the higher of the two ratings. This dynamic assessment is crucial for accurately reflecting the risk characteristics of the funds [9]. - The adjustments are characterized by a "higher not lower" principle, driven by regulatory mandates, with banks, fund companies, and third-party sales channels working in coordination [9]. Impact on Investors - The adjustments have direct implications for fund investors, who will receive notifications about changes in risk levels. Investors are encouraged to reassess their risk tolerance in light of these changes [11][12]. - New investors may face restrictions on purchasing funds if the adjusted risk level exceeds their assessed risk tolerance, serving as a protective measure against taking on excessive risk [11][12].

Underlying Causes of Adjustments - The primary reasons for the risk level increases include rising volatility, increased maximum drawdown multiples, and changes in fund scale [1][4][5]. - For bond funds, heightened market volatility and increased equity allocations have contributed to the adjustments in risk ratings [5].

Market Dynamics and Investor Considerations - The adjustments reflect a broader trend where high returns are often accompanied by higher volatility, particularly for funds targeting innovative and less liquid companies [4][5]. - Investors are encouraged to regularly review the risk ratings and adjust their investment strategies accordingly, as the risk-return characteristics of funds are subject to change over time [6].
