Core Viewpoint - The "One Big Beautiful Bills" legislation is crucial for the global capital market's trajectory in the second half of the year and could significantly impact wealth over the next few years [1][6].

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the concept of debt resolution, particularly focusing on debt replacement as a mechanism to alleviate debt burdens, exemplified by China's recent proposal to increase local government debt limits to address hidden debts amounting to 12 trillion yuan, marking the largest debt resolution effort in China's history [1]. Debt Replacement Mechanism - Debt replacement involves substituting high-interest, short-term debt with low-interest, long-term debt to reduce interest costs and repayment pressure [1]. - The policy interpretation of debt replacement does not eliminate or reduce the total amount of debt, aligning with the invariance principle in decision theory [1]. Invariance Principle and Framework Effect - The invariance principle states that different descriptions of the same situation should not alter preferences, which is relevant in the context of debt [2]. - The article illustrates how different framing of the same debt scenario can lead to preference reversals, a phenomenon known as the "framing effect" [3]. Research Findings on Framing Effects - Two new types of framing effects were identified in the context of debt repayment: single debt scheme framing effect and paired debt scheme framing effect [4]. - The single debt scheme framing effect shows that even with unchanged due dates and total amounts, altering the description can significantly influence creditors' acceptance levels [8][10]. Paired Debt Scheme Framing Effect - In paired debt schemes, where the total debt amount is fixed but the due dates differ, different framing can also lead to significant preference changes [11]. - The research indicates that using a compressed time frame or different payment frequency can affect creditors' choices between higher interest, shorter-term debt and lower interest, longer-term debt [12]. Practical Implications - The findings suggest that by manipulating the perception of repayment duration through framing, policymakers can encourage desired debt repayment behaviors [14]. - The application of digital technologies and visualization can enhance the effectiveness of these framing strategies, allowing for more precise control over how repayment periods are perceived [16]. Conclusion - The exploration of framing effects provides new insights into decision-making processes related to debt repayment and offers practical tools for improving debt management strategies and promoting economic stability [18].
