Summary of Conference Call Records Industry Overview - The records focus on the banking and financial industry, particularly the trends in deposit migration and its implications for the capital market. Key Points and Arguments 1. **Deposit Migration Trends** - As of August, M1 growth increased by 0.4 percentage points to 6%, while M2 growth remained stable, indicating a continued trend towards liquidity in deposits. Corporate demand for current deposits rose to 6.7%, while household current deposit growth slightly decreased to 6.3% [2][3][4] 2. **Potential for Capital Market Inflows** - The potential scale for household deposits migrating to equity markets is estimated at 5 to 7 trillion RMB. However, the process is complex and not straightforward, influenced by various factors including liquidity in the financial system [2][3][12] 3. **Impact of Monetary Policy** - The central bank's liquidity provision remains ample, with an increase of 0.4 trillion RMB in August. Interbank market rates are maintained at around 1.4% to 1.5%, indicating a loose monetary environment. However, a net decrease of 110 billion RMB in the central bank's debt to other financial companies may signal regulatory shifts [4][11] 4. **Cross-Border Capital Flows** - The RMB exchange rate remained strong, with a shift from capital outflows to inflows in the A-share market. This change is attributed to improved foreign capital conditions and a reversal of previous outflow trends [5][9] 5. **Non-Bank Deposit Increases** - Non-bank deposits increased by 550 billion RMB year-on-year in August, primarily from funds entering brokerage margin accounts and fixed-income product accounts. This indicates a shift in investment preferences towards non-bank financial products [6][7] 6. **Investor Risk Appetite** - There is a notable increase in residents' risk appetite, with a shift from fixed-term to current and equity assets. The ratio of household savings to stock market capitalization has decreased from 210% to 157%, suggesting room for further capital market inflows [8][12] 7. **Market Dynamics and Investor Sentiment** - Despite the potential for deposit migration, the pace has slowed due to factors such as preemptive fiscal and credit policies, increased investor divergence post-stock market rises, and a slowdown in export growth affecting capital flows [3][10][11] 8. **Future Outlook on Deposit Migration** - While the current pace of deposit migration is slowing, the potential remains significant. The estimated 5 to 7 trillion RMB potential for migration is expected to continue, albeit with fluctuations influenced by fiscal policies, market performance, and export dynamics [12] Other Important Insights - The trend of passive equity fund growth indicates a shift in investor behavior, with passive funds or ETFs becoming the primary choice for market entry [7] - The overall liquidity environment and regulatory changes will play crucial roles in shaping future capital market dynamics and deposit migration trends [4][11]

Core Insights - The trend of "deposit migration" is expected to gradually manifest from 2022 to 2025, driven by policy guidance, declining interest rates, narrowing bank net interest margins, and the pressure of deposit termization [1] - Although the overall proportion of deposit migration is limited, it presents a considerable incremental opportunity for non-bank asset management (including bank wealth management, insurance, public funds, etc.) [1] - Low-risk asset management products remain the mainstream allocation direction, but there is a recent trend of rising risk appetite, indicating a potential gradual increase in residents' risk preferences [1] Group 1 - The scale of bank wealth management's fixed income+ products has increased by over 1.1 trillion yuan in the first eight months [1] - Insurance capital has increased stock allocations by over 640 billion yuan in the first half of the year [1] - The incremental funds entering the stock market are primarily from high-net-worth individuals, with a significant number of ordinary residents not yet participating [1] Group 2 - There has not been a large-scale substantial flow of funds between stocks and bonds, indicating that the stock-bond dynamic is likely to become more muted [1] - The space for further declines in the bond market appears limited [1]

人民财讯9月23日电，中金指出，综合来看，中金跟踪的流动性指标显示存款搬家的趋势仍在继续演 绎，体现为存款延续活化趋势、资本市场更为活跃，但搬家步伐略有放缓，主要由于三方面因素：首 先，由于上半年财政和信贷货币投放较为前置，下半年存款创造"后劲"略显不足；其次，股市上涨后投 资者分歧也在加大，存款向非银部门账户迁移速度减慢；最后，出口放缓的背景下结汇资金回流步伐也 在放缓。另外，在市场回暖的背景下，央行对其他金融性公司债权也出现下降的迹象。向前看，以上因 素可能使得存款搬家趋势并非一蹴而就，但从超额储蓄、定期存款重定价等角度估算的5万亿-7万亿元 存款搬家潜力仍在，这一趋势可能在中期继续演绎。 ...
