  1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - In 2025, the infrastructure investment and financing (hereinafter referred to as "base investment") industry policies continue the overall idea of "controlling new debts and resolving existing debts" of the "package debt - resolution" policy in 2024, and pay more attention to the balance between debt resolution and development [3][5]. - The "package debt - resolution" policy has achieved phased results, with many regions achieving zero implicit debts. The industry adheres to resolving debts while developing and vice versa, strengthens special - bond support, and guides the standardized development of government investment funds to assist the transformation of base - investment enterprises [5][7][8]. - Under the influence of policies, the short - term debt - repayment pressure of base - investment enterprises has been relieved, the financing channels are continuously adjusted, the marginal liquidity is improved, and the bond financing cost is reduced. However, the non - standard debt situation in some provinces still needs attention [14]. - In 2025, the base - investment industry policies are expected to continue the main tone of "controlling new debts and resolving existing debts", and the industry's debt risk is generally controllable. New investment space may be opened, but issues such as the tightening of financing channels, non - standard debt replacement progress, and changes in the government - enterprise relationship after enterprise transformation need to be concerned [23][25]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Policy Review - Policy Continuity and New Requirements: In 2025, the base - investment industry policies continue the "controlling new debts and resolving existing debts" idea of 2024, and the 2025 national government work report puts forward new requirements such as dynamically adjusting the list of high - risk debt regions and opening up new investment space [3][5]. - Phased Results of Debt Resolution: In the first quarter of 2025, many regions announced that they had achieved zero implicit debts in 2024, involving 10 provinces and 23 cities. For example, Xuzhou in Jiangsu Province used 11.881 billion yuan of special bonds to replace implicit debts and completed the task of zero implicit debts [5]. - Debt Resolution in Development: The 2025 national government work report proposes to dynamically adjust the list of high - risk debt regions. Some regions may be planning to withdraw from the list of key provinces. The central bank also guides the resolution of financial debt risks of financing platforms and supports their market - oriented transformation [7]. - Support for Enterprise Transformation: Special bonds are strengthened to support infrastructure construction, rural revitalization, and consumption - related fields. The State Council General Office issues a guiding opinion on promoting the high - quality development of government investment funds, and the Shanghai Stock Exchange revises relevant rules to guide the transformation of base - investment enterprises [8][9][11]. 3.2 Policy Main Impacts - Relieved Short - term Debt - Repayment Pressure: Since November 2024, the government has increased the local government debt limit to replace existing implicit debts. In the first quarter of 2025, 1.34 trillion yuan of special bonds were issued for this purpose, exceeding half of the annual quota, and the short - term debt - repayment pressure of base - investment enterprises has been relieved [14][15]. - Adjusted Financing Channels: In the first quarter of 2025, the issuance scale and net financing of base - investment bonds decreased compared with the same period last year. The non - standard debt scale decreased, and the proportion of bank loans in the debt of base - investment enterprises may increase [16]. - Improved Liquidity and Reduced Financing Cost: The liquidity of base - investment enterprises has been continuously improved, and the weighted average issuance interest rate of base - investment bonds in the first quarter of 2025 decreased by 11BP compared with the fourth quarter of 2024. The financing cost of base - investment enterprises in key provinces has decreased significantly [17]. - Converged Non - standard and Bill Public Opinions: The negative public opinions of base - investment non - standard risks have converged. In the first quarter of 2025, the total number of non - standard risk events decreased by about 41% compared with the fourth quarter of 2024 and about 51% compared with the first quarter of 2024. However, the non - standard risk situation in some regions still needs attention [18]. - Released Liquidity by Special Bonds: Special bonds support project investment and land asset recovery. In the first quarter of 2025, the new quota of government special bonds for infrastructure construction increased significantly, and some special bonds were used for land reserve projects, which helped base - investment enterprises dispose of idle and inefficient land assets and release liquidity [19][20]. - Enterprise Transformation and High - quality Development: Policy guidance promotes the transformation and high - quality development of base - investment enterprises. The proportion of market - oriented entities among bond - issuing enterprises has increased, and the transformation is expected to accelerate [21][22]. 3.3 Industry Development Expectations - Controllable Debt Risk: In 2025, the base - investment industry policies will continue the main tone of "controlling new debts and resolving existing debts". The debt risk of the industry is generally controllable, but the implementation of financial debt - resolution policies and the adjustment of financing channels need to be concerned [23][25]. - New Investment Space and Enterprise Transformation: The current debt - resolution work emphasizes the balance between debt resolution and development. New investment space may be opened, and base - investment enterprises are expected to focus on key investment fields and industrial investment. The process of enterprises withdrawing from the platform and industrial transformation is expected to accelerate [25]. - Challenges and Concerns: The fundamental improvement of base - investment enterprises is still under pressure, and the progress of non - standard debt replacement is uncertain, which may affect the public opinion trend. The changes in the government - enterprise relationship after enterprise transformation also need continuous attention [25][33][34].
