Core Viewpoints of the Report - In 2025, under the dual pressure of increased external environmental uncertainty and internal structural contradictions, small and micro - enterprises faced operational challenges. Despite continuous macro - policy support for inclusive small and micro - enterprise loans, the growth rate of such loans slowed down, and the issuance of small and micro - enterprise loan ABS products declined in terms of both the number of issues and scale. The cumulative default rate of these products rose at the end of the year, indicating pressure on asset quality. The credit performance of small and micro - enterprise credit assets and the future issuance of small and micro - enterprise loan ABS products in the credit asset securitization market remain uncertain [3][4][33] 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Policy - In 2025, in the face of a complex situation with deepening external environmental impacts and prominent domestic supply - demand contradictions, the macro - policy implemented a moderately loose monetary policy, maintained the intensity of support for inclusive small and micro - enterprise loans, and optimized the loan structure. Multiple departments issued a series of policies to support small and micro - enterprises, aiming to increase financing supply, reduce costs, and improve service quality. The new general tone of "ensuring quantity, improving quality, stabilizing prices, and optimizing structure" was established [4][5] - The scale of inclusive small and micro - enterprise loans continued to grow, with the balance increasing from 29.40 trillion yuan in 2023 to 36.57 trillion yuan in 2025, and the proportion in total loans rising from 12.37% to 13.45%.

State - owned banks remained the dominant issuers, with 1 state - owned bank issuing 4 products worth 49.612 billion yuan, accounting for 84.60%.
