Core Viewpoint - Recent announcements from multiple banks indicate a concerted effort to clean up long-dormant accounts, which include both personal and corporate accounts, primarily targeting low-balance accounts with no recent transactions [2][5][7]. Summary by Relevant Sections Long-Dormant Account Cleanup - Banks are initiating a wave of clean-up actions for long-dormant accounts, with varying criteria for what constitutes a "long-dormant account" [2][7]. - The criteria generally include accounts that have not had any active transactions for over three years, excluding interest-related transactions [7][11]. Reasons Behind the Cleanup - The clean-up is driven by three main factors: preventing misuse of dormant accounts for illegal activities such as money laundering and fraud, optimizing resource allocation by reducing the number of inactive accounts, and complying with regulatory requirements for customer identity verification [7][14]. Variability in Standards - Different banks have established their own criteria for identifying long-dormant accounts, leading to inconsistencies across the industry [11][12]. - For example, some banks define long-dormant accounts as those with balances below 10 yuan and no transactions for over a year, while others may have different thresholds [10][12]. Expansion of Cleanup Scope - The cleanup efforts are not limited to personal accounts; some banks are also targeting corporate accounts that have been inactive for over a year [13]. - Specific criteria for corporate accounts include those that have not had any payment activities for over a year and have no outstanding loans [13]. Consumer Impact and Recommendations - The cleanup of long-dormant accounts may pose risks to consumers, such as potential fees for maintaining inactive accounts and the risk of accounts being used for fraudulent activities [10][14]. - Industry experts suggest that banks should establish clearer and more consistent criteria for account cleanup to protect consumer rights and reduce confusion [14].

Investment Rating - The report maintains a positive outlook on the banking sector, suggesting that several banks are undervalued based on their asset quality and excess provisioning metrics [4][3]. Core Insights - The valuation premium of banks typically arises from their middle-income and liability advantages, while valuation discounts are often due to concerns over asset quality [2][10]. - The report introduces two key indicators: "broad non-performing asset ratio" and "excess provisioning profit multiple" to objectively assess and compare the current asset quality status of banks [2][10]. - A total of 56 AH-listed banks are analyzed, expanding from the previous report's focus on 42 A-share listed banks, to provide a comprehensive overview of excess provisioning levels and trends [2][10]. Summary by Sections 1. Introduction: Significance of Asset Quality - The report emphasizes the importance of objectively assessing asset quality, as it significantly impacts bank valuations and performance [10]. 2. How to Objectively Assess Bank Non-Performing Assets - Traditional asset quality indicators may not accurately reflect the true provisioning situation due to inconsistent standards and incomplete coverage of assets [14]. - The report proposes a "broad non-performing asset ratio" to better capture the credit risk within banks [14][15]. 3. Construction of Excess Provisioning Profit Multiple Indicator - The excess provisioning profit multiple is constructed to measure the performance elasticity of banks, indicating their potential for future earnings recovery [7][14]. - The report highlights that banks with higher excess provisioning ratios, such as Hangzhou Bank, show strong risk mitigation capabilities [7][14]. 4. Valuation from the Perspective of Broad Excess Provisioning - The long-term correlation between bank valuation levels and ROE is noted, with excess provisioning contributing to performance and valuation improvements [3][4]. - Several banks, including Wuxi Bank and Agricultural Bank (H), are identified as being significantly above the PB-excess provisioning profit multiple regression line, indicating potential investment opportunities [3][4].
