1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - Since 2024, the "asset shortage" in the bond market has persisted, with the "AS index" showing a slight easing in 2025 but still indicating a shortfall in high - quality financial assets [5][11]. - In the "asset shortage" environment, while城投 bonds are popular, their supply has been shrinking due to regulatory policies. The credit spread of 3 - year AA+ level 城投 bonds has generally narrowed [12]. - The bond guarantee business of guarantee institutions is facing challenges, with a decline in the scale of 城投 bond guarantee and a change in business structure. The industry needs to adjust its development path [15][16]. - The guarantee industry is exploring transformation paths, including promoting industrial bond guarantee, exploring asset - securitization and offshore bond guarantee, deepening policy functions, and establishing a long - term risk control mechanism. Overall, industry risks are controllable, and the outlook is stable [28][33][42]. 3. Summary by Related Catalogs 2.1 Challenges Faced by the Guarantee Industry - **Reduction in 城投 Bond Guarantee Business and Transformation Pressure**: From 2024, the guarantee business volume of 城投 bonds decreased significantly year - on - year. In 2025, the bond guarantee business volume increased due to the expansion of industrial bond guarantee. The proportion of 城投 bond guarantee in the total bond guarantee has been decreasing, and the business structure is in adjustment. This change has led to a bottleneck in business growth and an increase in regional risk differentiation [18][19]. - **Spread of the "Naked Issuance" Trend and Decrease in the Marginal Value of Guarantee**: The scale and proportion of "naked issuance" bonds have increased. The "spread - reducing" effect of guarantee has weakened, and investors have relaxed their bond - inclusion criteria. This has led to a loss of high - quality customers for guarantee institutions [22][23]. - **Expansion of Guarantee Participants and Prominence of the Matthew Effect**: The number of guarantee institutions in the bond guarantee market has increased, intensifying competition. The Matthew effect is prominent, with leading guarantee institutions gaining advantages in capital and customer resources, while small and medium - sized institutions face greater pressure [24][25]. 2.2 Transformation Paths for the Guarantee Industry - **Promoting the Transformation Path of Industrial Bond Guarantee**: Driven by policies, the transformation of guarantee institutions to industrial bond guarantee has accelerated. The scale and proportion of industrial bond guarantee have increased. However, risks such as business cycle and transformation effectiveness need to be considered [28][32]. - **Positive Exploration of Asset - Securitization and Offshore Bond Guarantee**: Asset - securitization can alleviate the financing problems of small and medium - sized enterprises. The scale and number of participating institutions in asset - securitization guarantee have been increasing. The issuance of Chinese offshore bonds has expanded, and more guarantee institutions are exploring this area. However, they need to consider market characteristics and risk tolerance [33][34][35]. - **Deepening Policy Functions and Embedding Risk - Sharing Mechanisms**: Government - financed guarantee institutions are deepening their policy functions, and the government is improving the risk - sharing mechanism through the establishment of the National Financing Guarantee Fund and the "4321" risk - sharing mechanism. Guarantee institutions should actively participate in establishing risk - sharing plans [36][39][40]. - **Short - Term Development Pressure and Establishment of a Long - Term Risk - Control Mechanism**: The current development pressure on guarantee institutions is mainly due to the "asset shortage" and regulatory requirements. They need to break their dependence on 城投 bond guarantee and establish a long - term risk - control mechanism to enhance their competitiveness [41][42].

Core Viewpoint - China has entered a low-interest-rate era since 2019, facing constraints on further policy rate cuts due to various factors, including bank net interest margin pressure and residents' savings demands. Despite these challenges, bond assets can still provide underlying returns, and the "fixed income +" strategy is expected to become a significant development direction for asset management institutions, aligning with investors' core demand for stable value growth [1][5][18].

Group 2: Characteristics of China's Low-Interest Rate Era - Since 2019, China's policy interest rates have been on a downward trend, with the 10-year government bond yield dropping below 2.0% [5][6]. - The banking sector's total assets are projected to reach 276.1% of GDP by 2024, with interest income accounting for 77.6%, indicating a significant reliance on interest income [5]. - By the end of 2024, the number of bond funds in China reached 4,534, with a total scale of 23.07 trillion yuan, reflecting a 15.9% year-on-year growth [6][7]. Group 3: Performance of Bond Products - The total scale of money market funds increased by 20.7% in 2024, while short-term bond funds grew by 13%, indicating a strong preference for low-risk investments [6][7]. - The mid-to-long-term pure bond fund index rose by 4.59% in 2024, marking a historical high in returns [8]. - "Fixed income +" products faced redemption challenges in early 2024 but rebounded in the fourth quarter as the stock market recovered, with a projected growth of 13.77% in the first half of 2025 [6][8]. Group 4: "Fixed Income +" Strategy Pathways - The narrow definition of "fixed income +" focuses on equity assets as the core for enhancement, leveraging the dual return attributes of stocks and the supportive policies from the government [10][11]. - The broad definition of "fixed income +" emphasizes a multi-asset integration approach, incorporating commodities, alternative assets, and global diversification to enhance risk-return efficiency [13][14]. - The asset allocation strategy from 2019 to present has yielded an annualized return of 9.17%, demonstrating the effectiveness of diversified asset strategies compared to single assets [14][17]. Group 5: Future Outlook - The "fixed income +" strategy is expected to benefit from the stability of bond underlying returns and the effects of multi-asset enhancement, indicating a broad development space in the future [18].
