Core Viewpoint - The People's Bank of China (PBOC) is expected to maintain a moderately loose monetary policy, potentially implementing reserve requirement ratio (RRR) cuts and interest rate reductions, but large-scale rate cuts are deemed unrealistic [1][5][6]. Monetary Policy Outlook - PBOC will utilize various monetary policy tools to ensure ample liquidity and lower overall financing costs, supporting economic recovery [1]. - The current Loan Prime Rate (LPR) has remained unchanged at 3.0% for one-year and 3.5% for five-year loans for four consecutive months, indicating a cautious approach to rate adjustments [1][4]. - The recent U.S. Federal Reserve rate cuts provide a more favorable external environment for China's monetary policy, potentially easing pressure on interest rates and the RMB exchange rate [3][5]. Interest Rate Dynamics - The average interest rate for new corporate loans in August was approximately 3.1%, down about 40 basis points year-on-year, while the average for new personal housing loans was also around 3.1%, down 25 basis points [4]. - The necessity for LPR reductions is questioned, as current rates are already at historical lows and the recent market operations have not indicated a need for immediate changes [4][5]. Constraints on LPR Changes - Factors limiting LPR adjustments include bank interest margins, which have decreased to 1.42%, and the already low deposit rates, which may restrict further reductions [3][5]. - The PBOC's focus will be on balancing internal and external factors while maintaining a stable economic environment, with RRR cuts prioritized over interest rate cuts [5][6]. Future Expectations - A potential RRR cut of 0.25 to 0.5 percentage points is anticipated in the fourth quarter, aimed at enhancing market liquidity [6]. - If policy and deposit rates continue to decline, there remains a possibility for LPR to decrease by 5 to 10 basis points later this year, although expectations should be tempered [6]. Structural Support Measures - Beyond lowering LPR, reducing non-interest costs and providing more policy support for key sectors will be essential for lowering overall financing costs [7]. - The collaboration between monetary policy and fiscal measures, such as interest subsidies and risk compensation, will be crucial in enhancing financial support for consumption and domestic demand [7].

北京时间9月18日，美联储宣布降息25个基点，时隔9个月后重启降息。市场预期，国内也存在进一步降 息、降准的空间，这也将使得银行未来息差承压。 近期，也有多家银行股东、董监高宣布出手增持自家银行股票。多家银行在公告中表示，增持计划是基 于对银行长期投资价值的认可，支持银行长期发展。 7月11日以来，银行板块整体呈阶段性下行趋势。以涨势最具代表性的农行为例，该银行股价创下7.55 元的历史新高后，目前已回落至6.7元附近。 每年7月，银行股迎来集中分红期，一些套利资金"分红即走"使得股价短线承压。从信贷需求来看，7-8 月社融、信贷数据低于预期，实体经济融资意愿偏弱，银行资产端扩张动力不足。 增持计划对股价有所提振。截至19日午盘收盘，刚刚完成高管增持的齐鲁银行（601665.AH）领涨，涨 幅超2.5%。 责任编辑：王馨茹 ...

Core Viewpoint - China's monetary policy is shifting towards using reserve requirement ratio (RRR) cuts instead of aggressive interest rate cuts to protect bank interest margins and maintain indirect financing channels, while also allowing for gradual interest rate reductions and innovative structural tools to stabilize finance and promote transformation [1][2]. Group 1: Monetary Policy Adjustments - Since 2016, China has adjusted the RRR 23 times, all downward, reducing the RRR for major deposit-taking financial institutions from 17.5% to 9.0%, a total decrease of 8.5 percentage points [3]. - In contrast, the policy interest rates have only been adjusted 14 times since 2016, indicating a preference for RRR cuts over significant interest rate reductions [3][4]. - The current average RRR for Chinese financial institutions is approximately 6.2%, suggesting substantial room for further RRR cuts compared to major economies where RRR tools are less utilized [5]. Group 2: Impact on Banking Sector - The net interest margin for commercial banks in China has decreased to 1.42%, the lowest on record, which raises concerns about the sustainability of the banking sector if interest rates are cut too aggressively [3][4]. - The banking sector is crucial for supporting the real economy, as it accounts for 89.7% of financing in China, compared to only 42% in the U.S., where direct financing plays a larger role [4]. Group 3: Fiscal and Monetary Policy Coordination - RRR cuts will increase the funds available for commercial banks, enabling them to better support proactive fiscal policies, as approximately 68% of national debt and 75% of local government debt is held by commercial banks [6]. - The effectiveness of monetary policy is contingent on the cooperation of commercial banks and the financial system, especially given the low excess reserve ratio in China [6]. Group 4: Interest Rate Dynamics - There is limited elasticity of consumption and investment to interest rate changes in China, which diminishes the effectiveness of interest rate cuts in stimulating economic activity [8]. - The decline in interest rates has led to a reduction in household deposits, with a decrease of 1.11 trillion yuan in July, indicating a relationship between lower interest rates and reduced savings [8]. - Despite the current low inflation and a slight appreciation of the yuan against the dollar, there remains room for further interest rate cuts, especially as external conditions improve with potential U.S. rate cuts [8][9]. Group 5: Structural Monetary Policy Tools - China has been innovating structural monetary policy tools, which have become increasingly important in supporting weak economic sectors and key areas such as technology innovation and green development [9]. - As of the end of 2024, structural monetary policy tools are expected to account for approximately 14.2% of total bank assets in China, highlighting their growing significance [9].

Group 1 - The essence of the reserve requirement cut is to increase liquidity in the market, allowing banks to lend more, but merely saving money may lead to losses due to inflation [1][3] - Current deposit interest rates are at historical lows, making savings less effective as inflation may erode purchasing power [3] - The influx of liquidity may drive up asset prices in stock and real estate markets, presenting opportunities for investment rather than passive saving [3] Group 2 - Individuals should focus on restructuring asset allocation to ensure money is actively working for them, seeking investments that can outpace inflation [1][5] - Emphasis on investing in "anti-inflation" assets such as quality stocks, index funds, and gold, which have historically provided better returns than savings [3][4] - The importance of balancing risk and return by diversifying investments across high-risk and low-risk assets to optimize potential returns in a low-interest environment [3][7] Group 3 - The reserve requirement cut signals a shift from a defensive to an offensive investment strategy, encouraging individuals to seize opportunities rather than merely protect their savings [5][6] - Personal development and skill enhancement are crucial for individuals to adapt to economic changes and seize high-income opportunities [4][7] - Building a strong network and understanding market trends can lead to better investment and career opportunities, emphasizing the need for proactive engagement [7][8]
