“金字招牌”信仰崩塌，浙金中心是怎样陷入“祥源系”违约风暴的？

Core Viewpoint - The trust in "Zhejiang Financial Asset Trading Center" has collapsed after the "Xiangyuan System" products faced a crisis, leading investors to realize that their long-held belief in the stability and security of the platform was misplaced [1][2]. Group 1: Company Background - "Zhejiang Financial Asset Trading Center" was established in December 2013 and was initially backed by state-owned enterprises, providing a platform for the trading of various financial assets [8]. - The company has undergone significant changes, with state-owned shareholders withdrawing and private enterprises, such as Hangzhou Minzhi Investment Management Co., becoming the largest shareholder [8][10]. - As of December 2024, the company was renamed "Zhejiang Zhejin Asset Operation Co., Ltd." and experienced changes in its legal representative and management [10]. Group 2: Investor Experience - Investors believed in the platform's stability due to its state-owned background, with many investing significant amounts, such as 4.2 million yuan and 6 million yuan, in "Xiangyuan System" products with expected annual returns between 4.4% and 5.1% [3][4]. - Many investors were unaware that the products they purchased were from the "Xiangyuan System" and felt a false sense of security due to the platform's long-standing reputation [2][4]. - The crisis was first noticed when products failed to pay out after their maturity dates, leading to a realization of the underlying issues with the platform [5]. Group 3: Product and Financial Details - Over 90% of the products on the platform were from the "Xiangyuan System," with a total trading scale exceeding 12 billion yuan as of December 8, 2023 [11]. - The products were initially marketed as secure investments tied to government projects, which contributed to the investors' trust [3][4]. - The financial products offered were designed to be transferable, allowing investors to sell their holdings, although this became problematic as the crisis unfolded [7].
