从国家政策到行业倡议，从企业争相承诺到被集体约谈，2025年，一套国家政策、行业倡议、企业约谈"组合拳"，精准直击行业外少有人关注的"支付账 期"问题。 近年来，不断加剧的"内卷式"竞争让汽车产业陷入"增量不增收、增收不增利"怪象，这一现象在今年前5个月尤为显著。据国家统计局数据，1—5月，我国 汽车产销量同比增长均超10%；同时，汽车制造业营业收入上涨7.1%；但利润总额却下滑11.9%。 与此同时，这一压力更已传导至供应商等上游环节。据行业数据，2024年，中国上市车企平均应付账款周转天数达182天，部分企业超过240天，导致中小供 应商资金链压力巨大，融资成本高达5%—8%，远高于整车企业的3%—5%，对汽车产业链条带来极大安全风险。 由此，"缩短账期"已刻不容缓。中国汽车流通协会专家委员会委员章弘表示，"缩短账期"能够缓解供应商的资金压力，提升其经营韧性和创新能力。 其实早在3月17日，国务院就发布修订版《保障中小企业款项支付条例》，其中明确提出，大型企业从中小企业采购货物、工程、服务，应当自货物、工 程、服务交付之日起60日内支付款项。该条例已于6月1日起正式施行。 为巩固"六十天账期承诺"的贯彻执 ...
