Group 1: Scale of Maturing Deposits - The discussion around the 50 trillion yuan in maturing fixed-term deposits has gained traction since the end of 2025, highlighting the challenges banks will face in managing liabilities [2]. - The surge in maturing deposits can be traced back to 2022-2023, when funds flowed back into fixed-term deposits due to a downturn in the real estate market and volatility in the stock and bond markets [3]. - Estimates from various research institutions indicate that the total maturing fixed-term deposits in 2026 will significantly impact banks' liabilities and residents' asset allocation [4][5].

智通财经APP获悉，香港财政司司长陈茂波出席立法会财务委员会特别会议，对于香港政府会否设立机 制考虑审视股票印花税。陈茂波说，印花税是香港政府收入重要的部分，本财年印花税增加主要来自股 票，物业印花税就因市况仍未稳定而大幅缩减，认为要从公共财政和公众利益角度考虑。同时，香港政 府会考虑香港对比其他地区的竞争力，以免生意流失。 关于中小证券行科技转型，陈茂波表示，香港政府过往有根据合规成本、资讯科技(IT)投入等方面，透 过香港交易所对部分中小证券行作出补助，但他强调，业界亦应积极投入资源升级基础设施、IT系统 等，拥抱转变。 陈茂波又提到，香港经济有增长，失业率由3.9%回落至3.8%，随着经济转型，个别行业相对滞后，例 如金融市场及贸易表现好，转化至消费及零售则需时，但近期已有改善，尤其去年9月后，零售业销货 额每月同比增长6%至7%，餐饮则较零售恢复得较慢，相信建造业失业情况会随着香港楼市活跃而改 善。 陈茂波重申，不会再下调股票印花税，除非外围环境令香港竞争力不足，而根据早前的研究，认为目前 印花税水平在成交量、竞争力方面都是合适。至于房地产基金、交易所买卖基金等新领域则会较为宽 松，但会守住应收则收的 ...
