Core Viewpoint - The establishment of bank fintech subsidiaries has not led to the expected growth and profitability, with many returning to their parent banks due to operational challenges and market competition [9][15][37]. Group 1: Industry Overview - The fintech subsidiary of SPDB, PuYin JinKe, opened in Shanghai on August 5, 2024, but this does not indicate a revival of bank tech subsidiaries, as the industry has seen a decline in new establishments since 2022 [4][6]. - Over the past decade, more than 20 banks have established fintech subsidiaries, driven by the need for improved cybersecurity and competition from internet financial companies [7][8]. - Despite initial hopes, these subsidiaries have struggled to generate independent revenue and often rely on their parent banks for survival [9][15].
