Report Industry Investment Rating - The report does not explicitly mention the industry investment rating. Core Viewpoints - The general deposit growth rate of the Big Four banks has been persistently low, and they face significant pressure. The difference in deposit rates between large and small - medium - sized banks may lead to a continued low growth rate of the Big Four's general deposits. The Big Four rely more on inter - bank liabilities to support asset expansion [1]. - The central bank's easing in Q2 2025 has supported the Big Four to expand their bond investment scale and increase leverage in the bond market, which has pushed down bond yields and exacerbated the problem of yield inversion in bond investments by banks and insurance funds. Attention should be paid to regulatory attitudes towards the bond market and central bank's actions on the capital side [1]. - It is recommended to be bullish on long - term urban investment bonds and bank capital bonds with yields above 2%. The investment value of interest - rate bonds is relatively low, and the spread of low - rated credit bonds is expected to further compress. It is also suggested to continue to pay attention to Hong Kong - listed banks [1]. Summary by Related Content Big Four Banks' Deposit Situation - Since 2024, the general deposit growth rate of the Big Four banks has declined rapidly. In 2024, from March to June, it dropped from 10.2% to 4.4%. In May 2025, the general deposits of the Big Four decreased by 0.2 trillion yuan, while those of small - medium - sized banks increased by 0.42 trillion yuan. As of the end of May 2025, the general deposit growth rate of the Big Four was 5.8%, significantly lower than 9.4% of small - medium - sized banks [1]. - From January to May 2025, the Big Four's liability scale increased by 8.46 trillion yuan, with general deposits increasing by 3.11 trillion yuan, accounting for only 36.8% of the liability increment. In contrast, the proportion of general deposits in the liability increment of small - medium - sized banks reached 88.4% [1]. Asset Expansion and Investment of Banks - As of the end of May 2025, the credit growth rate of the Big Four was 9.5%, and the bond investment growth rate was as high as 17.8%. The credit growth rate of small - medium - sized banks was 5.8%, and the bond investment growth rate was 15.2%. The Big Four rely on inter - bank liabilities and borrowing from the central bank to support asset expansion [1]. Bond Market Situation - In Q2 2025, the central bank was extremely accommodative. Since early June, the DR001 rate has often been below 1.4%. This has led to a significant increase in bond market leverage and bond fund duration. On June 20, the average duration of medium - and long - term bond funds reached 5.0 years, and the 10Y and 30Y treasury bond yields declined [1]. - The trading volume of bond - pledged repurchase in the bond market has risen to near - historical extreme levels, and the bond market leverage has reached a historical high. The 10Y treasury bond yield is approaching a previous low [1]. Investment Recommendations - It is recommended to be bullish on long - term urban investment bonds and bank capital bonds with yields above 2%. The investment value of interest - rate bonds is relatively low, and among interest - rate bonds, local bonds have a higher cost - performance than treasury bonds. The spread of low - rated credit bonds is expected to further compress, and it is estimated that the yield of 5Y high - grade credit bonds may reach 1.8% in the future [1]. - It is also suggested to continue to pay attention to Hong Kong - listed banks, as low domestic interest rates may drive up the valuation of high - dividend - yield targets [1].
