Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core View - Short-term negative factors are repaired, but medium-term structural optimization is not yet complete. The new regulations on fund fees have a positive impact on the bond market in the short term, and the sentiment in the bond market is expected to recover. Medium and long-term credit bonds and Tier 2 capital bonds are expected to benefit, while the benefits for short-term bond funds are limited, and bond ETFs may expand in scale but shorten in duration. [1][3][9] Summary by Directory 1. Redemption Fee Regulations Change: Partial Exemption for Bond and Index Funds, Transition Period Extended to 12 Months - On December 31, 2025, the China Securities Regulatory Commission revised and issued the "Regulations on the Administration of Sales Fees of Publicly Offered Securities Investment Funds," which came into effect on January 1, 2026. Compared with the draft for comments, the official version gives partial exemption for the redemption fees of bond funds and index funds. For individual investors who hold index funds and bond funds for 7 days or more, and institutional investors who hold bond funds for 30 days or more, fund managers can negotiate the redemption fee standards separately. The transition period for adjusting non-compliant existing funds is set to 12 months, which is more lenient and eases potential market disruptions. [7] 2. Impact of the New Redemption Regulations on the Bond Market: Short-term Negative Factors Repaired, Medium-term Structural Optimization Incomplete 2.1 Short-term Benefits: Uncertainty of the Impact of the New Regulations on the Bond Market Resolved, Market Sentiment Expected to Recover - The new regulations were implemented in a more moderate way, significantly reducing the short-term passive redemption pressure on bond funds and providing support for the bond market at the liability end. If the central bank accelerates treasury bond trading and insurance funds enter the market for allocation in the future, ultra-long bonds will be supported to some extent, and certificate of deposit rates are expected to decline slowly. [9] 2.2 Medium and Long-term Credit Bonds/Tier 2 Capital Bonds Benefit: More Obvious Repair of Liability End Stability - The enhanced stability of the liability end of bond funds is beneficial to medium and high-grade medium and long-term, highly liquid credit bonds and Tier 2 capital bonds. After the new regulations, the benefits to the liability end are more obvious compared to interest rate bonds and short-term credit bonds, and the spreads caused by previous fluctuations are expected to recover. [10] 2.3 Limited Benefits for Short-term Bond Funds, Bond ETFs May Expand in Scale but Shorten in Duration - The exemption threshold for institutional investors of short-term bond funds has been raised from 7 days to 30 days, weakening their liquidity advantage. Funds may flow to money market funds or bond ETFs. However, the current characteristics of the ETF market, such as "expanding scale, shortening duration, and concentrating on the short end," may continue, and long-duration credit bond/Science and Technology Innovation Bond ETFs may face more instability. [11] 3. Weekly Data Overview of Bond Funds - The ETF market shows the characteristics of "shortening duration and concentrating on the short end." The PCF duration of various ETFs generally shortens slowly. At the same time, the scale of medium and short-term varieties has expanded, and funds have gradually flowed into short-term treasury bond and credit bond varieties. The overall trading volume in the market has decreased in the past week, and trading activity has converged. [12]
