再见了，5年期大额存单!

Core Viewpoint - The recent collective withdrawal of 5-year large deposits by six major state-owned banks has raised concerns among ordinary depositors regarding asset allocation [2][13]. Group 1: Withdrawal of Long-term Deposit Products - Six major state-owned banks, including Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, Agricultural Bank of China, Bank of China, China Construction Bank, Bank of Communications, and Postal Savings Bank of China, have completely stopped offering 5-year large deposits [2][13]. - The exit of 5-year large deposits is not sudden; for instance, Bank of China had previously announced the sale of various deposit terms, including 5-year deposits, but limited them to specific customers [8][19]. - The availability of 3-year large deposits has also become scarce, with some banks indicating that the longest available term is now 2 years at a rate of 1.40% [10][21]. Group 2: Impact on Depositors - The reduction of long-term deposit products has left ordinary depositors in a dilemma regarding asset allocation, as many are uncertain about where to place their funds [11][22]. - A representative case is highlighted where a depositor with 1 million yuan intended to invest in a 5-year large deposit for stable returns but found no available options [11][22]. Group 3: Industry Response and Trends - The trend of withdrawing long-term deposit products reflects banks' reluctance to absorb higher-cost long-term liabilities due to pressure on interest margins, leading them to lower rates or reduce the supply of long-term products [11][22]. - The industry is being compelled to accelerate transformation, with suggestions for banks to expand non-interest income through wealth management and custodial services while stabilizing net interest margins [11][22].
