Core Viewpoint - The apparent stability of bank non-performing loan (NPL) ratios conceals deeper structural changes, indicating that the era of "soft landing" achieved through provisioning adjustments and risk rotation is nearing its end [2][8] Group 1: Banking Performance - China Construction Bank reported a 1.44% year-on-year increase in operating income to 560.281 billion yuan for the first three quarters of 2025, with net profit rising by 0.52% to 258.446 billion yuan [3] - The bank's asset quality remains robust, with a non-performing loan ratio of 1.32%, down 0.02 percentage points from the end of the previous year, and a provisioning coverage ratio of 235.05%, up 1.45 percentage points [3] - Other major banks, such as China Bank and Postal Savings Bank, also show varying levels of asset quality, with China Bank's NPL ratio at 1.24% and Postal Savings Bank's NPL ratio at 0.94% [4] Group 2: Risk Assessment - Some joint-stock banks are experiencing thinner provisioning buffers, with Everbright Bank's NPL ratio at 1.26% and a provisioning coverage ratio of 168.92%, nearing regulatory warning lines [5] - In contrast, certain regional banks demonstrate stronger risk resilience, such as Chengdu Bank with an NPL ratio of only 0.68% and a provisioning coverage ratio of 433.08% [6] - The focus of risk has shifted from corporate to retail, with banks like China Merchants Bank reporting an increase in attention loans, indicating rising concerns in personal lending sectors [7] Group 3: Future Outlook - The banking industry is expected to face a genuine stress test as excess provisioning space narrows and retail risks continue to emerge, marking a transition from scale expansion to quality prioritization [2][8] - The ability to balance risk clearance and sustainable profits will determine the future restructuring of the industry [8]

Core Viewpoint - The overall net interest margin (NIM) of A-share listed banks shows signs of stabilization and recovery, reflecting positive trends in the banking sector's performance in Q3 [2][3][5]. Group 1: Net Interest Margin Trends - Among the 26 listed banks that disclosed NIM data, 12 banks reported stable or improved NIM, indicating a significant expansion in the stabilization [3][5]. - Notably, smaller banks such as Guiyang Bank and Minsheng Bank showed the most significant improvements, with Guiyang Bank's NIM increasing by 0.04 percentage points [3][4]. - The number of banks with stable or rising NIM in Q3 is markedly higher compared to the previous two quarters, suggesting a positive shift in the banking sector [3][5]. Group 2: Factors Influencing NIM - The stabilization of NIM is attributed to banks' proactive management of liabilities and the delayed effects of monetary policy [2][4]. - Banks have optimized deposit structures and managed high-interest deposits effectively, alleviating funding cost pressures [4][5]. - The "policy bottom" established by previous monetary and fiscal measures has reinforced the stability of the financial system [4].

1. Report's Industry Investment Rating No information about the industry investment rating is provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The report analyzes the self - investment performance of banks in 2025 based on the semi - annual report and forecasts their behavior in the fourth quarter. It concludes that bond allocation is expected to support bank expansion, and although there is still room for banks to realize floating profits, the impact on the bond market is expected to be relatively mild [4][11][12]. 3. Summary According to the Directory 3.1 From the 2025 Semi - annual Report: Bank Self - investment Performance 3.1.1 Financial Market Returns: Increased Contribution of Realized Floating Profits - The revenue contribution of banks' self - investment business fluctuates upward. Since 2023, the proportion of investment income and fair - value changes in revenue has increased. In the first half of 2025, banks sold old bonds to realize floating profits to cope with the rising bond - market yields [20][23][26]. 3.1.2 Asset Allocation: Financial Investment Drives Balance - sheet Expansion - Since 2024, the year - on - year growth rate of bank financial investment has been rising, and its proportion in total assets has also increased. By the end of June 2025, the year - on - year growth rate of listed banks' financial investment was 14.9%. The OCI account's proportion has been increasing, and large state - owned banks have continuously increased their allocation of government bonds [31]. - In terms of duration, the overall duration of bank financial investment has been extended, but the space for continuous extension may be limited. Structurally, state - owned banks' AC accounts maintain a high duration, and joint - stock banks' OCI accounts have a more obvious duration - extension action [57][59][74]. 3.1.3 Liability Side: Decreased Liability Cost Rate and Declined Inter - bank Certificate of Deposit Balance in Q3 - In the first half of 2025, the weighted average interest - bearing liability cost rate of banks decreased by about 29BP compared with 2024, mainly due to the concentrated maturity and repricing of deposits. The deposit cost rate decreased by 25BP [86]. - Since the second quarter, the central bank's liquidity injection has been abundant, and the balance of inter - bank certificates of deposit has declined. Large state - owned banks have reduced their reliance on inter - bank certificates of deposit, while small and medium - sized banks have shortened the issuance term of inter - bank certificates of deposit to control costs [101][103][115]. 3.2 Outlook for Banks' Behavior in Q4 2025 3.2.1 Asset Side: Bond Allocation Expected to Continue Supporting Balance - sheet Expansion - In the fourth quarter, credit growth is expected to remain weak, and financial investment will still be the main driving force for bank balance - sheet expansion. The decline in liability cost rate has opened up space for bank bond allocation, and the current high spread between 10 - year treasury bonds and 1 - year inter - bank certificates of deposit has increased banks' willingness to allocate bonds [118][121][122]. - Large state - owned banks' pressure to undertake government bond issuance is expected to weaken, and small and medium - sized banks will continue to tilt available funds towards bond investment [128][131]. 3.2.2 Liability Side: Focus on the Issuance Scale of Banks' Inter - bank Certificates of Deposit - Banks may face "deposit migration" pressure in the fourth quarter, and some deposits will mature. Banks may issue inter - bank certificates of deposit preventively when liquidity is relatively loose. The issuance term of large state - owned banks is expected to be longer, while that of small and medium - sized banks is expected to be medium - short [136][138]. 3.2.3 Realizing Floating Profits: Still Some Space, but Limited Impact on the Bond Market - Banks need to smooth their performance in the fourth quarter, and there is still pressure to sell old bonds, but the impact on the bond market is expected to be relatively mild. There are limitations in selling old bonds, including accounting classification rationality, reinvestment pressure, and performance base pressure for 2026 [142][143]. - There is still some demand for banks to realize floating profits in Q4 2025, but the amount of floating profits that can be realized is limited. AC accounts have some selling constraints, and excessive realization of floating profits in OCI accounts may increase the performance base pressure for 2026 [144][151].
