Group 1: Industry Changes - A major state-owned bank has stopped accepting applications for the "high interest high rebate" car installment loans, following the issuance of self-regulatory agreements by various banking associations prohibiting high-commission financial products [2][9]. - The "high interest high rebate" model involved banks paying substantial commissions to car dealers to attract customers, which led to misleading practices and potential risks for all parties involved [2][4]. - Many banks are now implementing stricter policies regarding early repayment, with some requiring penalties for customers who wish to pay off their loans early [4][10].
