1 化债两年，城投债务有什么变化？ 在化解存量的目标下，本轮化债城投平台融资结构得以改善，在此过程中，城投平台各渠 道融资成本快速下降， 从数据上看，付息压力边际改善。但值得注意的是，城投有息债务规模 并未压降，过往债务高基数效应下的付息 支出具有滞后效应，新增的低成本债务替代大部分 存量债务可能需要至少 3 年时间，因此我们判断当前城投平台 付息压力仍处在较高点，但随 着时间的推移，城投付息压力将进一步缓解，最终在量平价跌的过程中实现付息支 出的良性 平衡。 1.1 城投债务结构变化 1.1.1 全行业观察：规模仍在增长，银行贷款占比小幅提升 从总量上看，城投平台有息债务仍在增长，但大部分来自银行贷款。截至 2025 年 3 月 底，城投平台有息债务总 额 61.72 万亿元，较 2023 年 6 月底增长 9.4%；其中，银行贷款、 债券、非标分别为 40.67 万亿元、15.41 万亿元 和 5.63 万亿元，分别较 2023 年 6 月底增长 13.06%、2.25%和 4.97%。政策严控债券和非标增量带来直观变化，城 投平台再融资转向银 行渠道，债券和非标变动不大。 从结构上看，城投平台新增的债务 ...

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating The document does not mention the industry investment rating. 2. Core Viewpoints - Guizhou is a typical key province with relatively weak economic and fiscal strength, but the debt burden has been significantly relieved after debt resolution. The progress of debt resolution is approaching the end, and there is still a demand for new financing at the provincial, municipal, and high - tech district levels, mainly relying on industrialization entities [4][19][21]. - The debt pressure in Guizhou has been alleviated, and the public - market debt issuance is cautious. The debt structure is relatively balanced. The transformation progress of listed and second - type urban investment companies is not fast, and there is no clear provincial coordination time for delisting [4][19]. - For bond selection, short - term varieties of both traditional urban investment and newly emerged market - oriented entities can be considered. Traditional urban investment's standard - bond market is shrinking, and the remaining part has a stronger safety margin. Market - oriented entities are currently the key recommended targets in the region, with relatively controllable credit risks in the short term. A cautious attitude is still maintained towards medium - and long - term credit products [4][21]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Economic and Fiscal Situation - In 2024, Guizhou's GDP was 2.266712 trillion yuan, ranking tenth from the bottom among provinces; the general budget revenue was 216.962 billion yuan, also ranking relatively low nationwide. However, the government - funded revenue was 231.528 billion yuan, ranking 8th in the country. Since 2020, Guizhou has had a government - funded revenue scale of over 200 billion yuan for four consecutive years [2][9]. - Among Guizhou's prefecture - level cities, Guiyang and Zunyi are in the first echelon. In 2024, their GDP exceeded 50 billion yuan, while other prefecture - level cities and autonomous prefectures were between 10 billion and 25 billion yuan. In 2024, the general budget revenues of Guiyang and Zunyi were 47.205 billion yuan and 34.776 billion yuan respectively, and the land transfer revenues were 64.325 billion yuan and 28.308 billion yuan respectively [3][13]. 3.2 Debt Situation - In 2024, Guizhou's government debt balance was 1.753709 trillion yuan, and the outstanding urban investment interest - bearing debt was only 1.590627 trillion yuan, with a relatively balanced debt structure [2][10]. - In 2024, the government debt balances of Guiyang and Zunyi were 376.955 billion yuan and 278.841 billion yuan respectively, and the outstanding urban investment interest - bearing debts were 385.355 billion yuan and 191.134 billion yuan respectively [3][13]. 3.3 Debt Resolution Progress - With limited financial resources in the province, the debt resolution support is strong. Substantial progress has been made in high - interest debt replacement with the help of special bond debt - resolution funds. Banks are more willing to participate in high - interest debt replacement, mainly replacing high - interest bank loans, while the progress of non - standard debt replacement is relatively slow [3][16]. - From 2024 to the present in 2025, Guizhou has issued 184.619 billion yuan and 105.944 billion yuan of special refinancing replacement bonds respectively, with the issuance scale always in the top five in the country. The scale of special new special bonds is also not small [16]. 3.4 Development and Bond Financing - Guizhou's debt resolution is approaching the end, and there is a demand for new financing at the provincial, municipal, and high - tech district levels, mainly relying on the subsequent appearance of industrialization entities in the capital market [4][19]. - The transformation progress of listed and second - type urban investment companies in Guizhou is not fast, and there is no clear provincial coordination time for delisting. Currently, the publicly - traded bond - issuing entities strongly recommended in the region are mainly state - owned enterprises that have successfully transformed into market - oriented operations [4][19]. 3.5 Industrial Situation - Guian New Area aims to build "three major industrial bases": a national computing power guarantee base, a new - energy power battery and material R & D and production base, and an important national industrial backup base. Many major projects have been put into production, but the contribution of data computing centers to tax revenue is not strong [14]. - Guizhou has established a "6 + 3" industrial system and a "3533" industrial cluster, with key support for industries such as new energy and aerospace high - tech industries, as well as other projects like urbanization, tourism, agriculture, and ecological environmental protection [20][21].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided regarding the report industry investment rating. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - After two years of debt resolution, there are improvement signals in the total amount of urban investment debt, with the proportion of bank loans increasing and the "stable quantity and falling price" of urban investment debt driving down interest - payment expenditures. The changes in fundamentals are consistent with the pricing trend of urban investment bonds. In July, the urban investment sentiment index improved, with a double - decline in the number of non - standard and private placement products. The issuance and review side improved month - on - month but remained tight overall, and the urban investment bonds continued to shrink. The trading sentiment in the secondary market warmed up, and the model pointed to going long. In the volatile market, the coupons of medium - and short - term bonds are more certain [1]. - The supply - and - demand pattern of urban investment bonds continues, and institutions still lack coupon assets. Although the registration scale and feedback days on the issuance and review side improved slightly month - on - month, the supply remained tight overall. In July, there was a net outflow of 21.784 billion yuan in urban investment bonds, and the outstanding scale continued to shrink. On the demand side, the net purchase volume of funds was not large in July due to subscription and redemption, while the allocation rhythm of wealth management was not significantly affected. With the relief of the redemption pressure on funds and the seasonal growth of wealth management scale after the quarter, the allocation power of credit bonds in the third quarter is expected to be strongly supported [2]. 3. Summary According to the Table of Contents 3.1 What Changes Have Occurred in Urban Investment Debt in Two Years of Debt Resolution? 3.1.1 Changes in Urban Investment Debt Structure - At the industry level, the scale of urban investment debt is still growing, and the proportion of bank loans has increased slightly. As of the end of March 2025, the total interest - bearing debt of urban investment platforms was 61.72 trillion yuan, a 9.4% increase from the end of June 2023. Among them, bank loans, bonds, and non - standard debts were 40.67 trillion yuan, 15.41 trillion yuan, and 5.63 trillion yuan respectively, with increases of 13.06%, 2.25%, and 4.97% respectively compared to the end of June 2023. The proportion of bank loans in the interest - bearing debt of urban investment platforms increased from 63.76% at the end of June 2023 to 65.9% at the end of March 2025 [14][15]. - There are differences among provinces. As of the end of March 2025, 18 provinces saw an increase in the proportion of bank loans, and 8 provinces including Ningxia, Hainan, Inner Mongolia, etc. had an increase of more than 3 percentage points. The financing structures of key provinces such as Gansu, Guangxi, Guizhou, etc. improved, with an increase in the proportion of bank loans and a simultaneous decrease in the proportion of bonds and non - standard debts [18][19]. 3.1.2 Has the Interest - Payment Pressure of Urban Investment Been Alleviated? - The costs of all channels have decreased. Since June 2023, the financing costs of bank loans and non - standard financing have decreased. In March 2025, the bank loan interest rate was 3.26%, a 69 - basis - point decrease from June 2023, and the non - standard financing cost was 5.14%, a 208 - basis - point decrease. The issuance coupon rate of urban investment bonds also decreased, reaching 2.2% in July 2025 [21]. - The annual interest - payment has decreased by over 190 billion yuan. The interest expenditure of bank loans decreased by 28.438 billion yuan, that of urban investment bonds decreased by 135.535 billion yuan, and that of non - standard debts decreased by 26.173 billion yuan [23][24]. - Except for Beijing and Shanghai, the interest - payment expenditures of urban investment bonds in all provinces have decreased. The interest - payment expenditures of urban investment bonds in some economically strong provinces and provinces that have received more debt - resolution support, such as Jiangsu and Zhejiang, have decreased significantly [29]. 3.2 Market Outlook: Medium - and Short - Term Urban Investment Bonds Are More Certain - In early July, the bond market adjusted due to the anti - involution policy. In the second half of the month, under the influence of multiple factors, the market sentiment eased, and the market started to repair and re - price funds and fundamentals. In the volatile bond market, medium - and short - term coupon assets are more certain, and the recovery of low - and medium - grade urban investment bonds is favored [32]. 3.3 Primary Issuance: Supply Remains Tight, and Issuance Enthusiasm Is High 3.3.1 Urban Investment Bond Issuance and Review Situation - The issuance and review rhythm improved month - on - month but remained tight overall. In July, the registration quota of urban investment bonds in the inter - bank market was 11.7091 billion yuan, a 52.69% month - on - month increase, but the registration completion ratio was only 11%. The number of feedbacks before the meeting decreased from 2.7 times in June to 2.28 times in July but remained at a relatively high level [34]. - The use of raised funds is still mainly for debt replacement, and it is difficult to break through new increments. In July, the proportion of debt replacement in the raised funds of urban investment bonds was 86.13%, and the proportion of other new uses was 3.62%, the lowest in 2025 [36]. 3.3.2 Urban Investment Dim - Sum Bonds: Increased Month - on - Month - The issuance of urban investment dim - sum bonds reached a new high in 2025 but was less popular than the same period last year. In July, 13 urban investment dim - sum bonds were issued, with a total scale of 8.273 billion yuan, significantly lower than 20.166 billion yuan in the same period of 2024. Henan and Shandong were the main issuers [42]. 3.3.3 The Issuance Enthusiasm Remains High, and the Coupon Rate Reached a New Low in the Year - The overall subscription enthusiasm in the primary market of urban investment bonds remained high. In July, the subscription multiple of urban investment bonds reached 3.67 times, and the "issuance coupon - lower limit of the range" was 34.75BP, lower than the same period last year [47]. - The issuance term of urban investment bonds was concentrated in 3 - 5 years, accounting for 46.48% in July. The weighted issuance coupon rate in July was 2.2%, a 7 - basis - point decrease from the previous month [49][50]. 3.3.4 Continued Net Outflow, and Urban Investment Bonds Further Shrunk - The net financing scale of urban investment bonds generally decreased, and the financing of key provinces tightened more significantly. In July, the cumulative net financing scale of urban investment bonds in key provinces was - 104.293 billion yuan, and that in non - key provinces was - 43.302 billion yuan [53]. 3.4 Secondary Market: Trading Sentiment Warmed Up, and the Model Pointed to Going Long 3.4.1 The Turnover Ratio of Each Term Declined Month - on - Month, and 3 - Year Urban Investment Bonds May Be More Suitable for Trading - Since the beginning of 2024, credit bonds have gradually moved towards the logic of liquidity pricing. The liquidity of bonds with a term of less than 1 year is better than that of medium - and long - term bonds. The turnover ratio of 3 - 5 - year bonds slightly recovered in June and July, and 3 - year high - grade urban investment bonds are more suitable for trading [54][55]. 3.4.2 Good Trading Sentiment, and More Low - Valuation Transactions - After a short - term adjustment, the weekly main - buying index began to rise, and the bullish sentiment quickly recovered. In the last week of July, the proportion of Bid transactions reached 34.52%, and the TKN proportion increased by 13.9 percentage points month - on - month [56]. - Low - valuation transactions of urban investment bonds reappeared, and the transaction term remained at a high level. On July 31, the deviation was - 2.40BP, and the weighted transaction term on the last trading day of July was 2.51 years, at the 82.2% quantile level since the beginning of 2024 [56].

Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Core Views - Since late June, the A-share market has been rising, primarily driven by loose liquidity.
