Abstract 摘要 中金研究 本篇报告中，我们对2025年二季度印度尼西亚经济进行展望。 点击小程序查看报告原文 宏观经济：在全球不利因素背景下应对内部结构性挑战 2025年一季度，印尼经济面临挑战。根据彭博一致预期，印尼全国GDP增速预计放缓至4.9%，内部结构性挑战大于外部不利因素。展望2025年二季度， 我们认为印尼有望通过采取更多措施应对对于资源过度依赖以及重建外国投资者信心：1）在印尼盾贬值和货币宽松之间寻求更加均衡的货币政策；2）战 略性开放市场，在保证核心技术留存的同时允许外国投资者加大对重点行业的持股；3）重振国内消费。 推出新的主权财富基金Danantara[1]以及新的资源出口外汇收益留存政策 对外贸易：印尼对美贸易敞口有限，对等关税风险可控 印尼出口市场较为多元化，对美出口敞口较小。2024年，对美出口在印尼整体出口中所占比重仅为10%，在此印尼不同于东盟内受到供应链回流以及"友 岸外包"影响的其他国家。此外我们认为对外贸易对于印尼经济增速的平均贡献较低（仅为0.3%，而2009年至2024年期间印尼实际GDP平均增速为4.8%） 可以使得印尼受关税影响较小。 采矿业面临的挑战：矿区 ...

Economic Overview - In 2021, China's GDP reached 114.4 trillion yuan, growing by 8.1% year-on-year, equivalent to approximately 17.7 trillion USD, accounting for over 18% of the global economy, solidifying its position as the second-largest economy in the world [1] - The historical context highlights that during the Song Dynasty, China accounted for 60% of the world's GDP, and even during the Qing Dynasty, it held 35% before being surpassed by Western countries due to the Industrial Revolution [1] Historical Context - The establishment of a unified state in China began with the Qin Dynasty, followed by the Han Dynasty, which defined the Chinese nation. Population growth was significant during stable periods, with the Han population increasing from 18 million to 60 million in about 200 years [3] - The Ming Dynasty saw a population increase from under 60 million to over 200 million by the early 17th century, while the Qing Dynasty's population grew from 120 million to over 430 million by the 19th century due to stable agricultural conditions [3] European Context - In contrast, Europe was fragmented into numerous feudal states post-1453, leading to frequent wars and a smaller population due to the instability of the "Dark Ages" [5] - The rise of the Ottoman Empire disrupted trade routes, increasing costs for Western nations, which relied heavily on trade with China for resources [5] Industrial Revolution - The search for new trade routes led to the Age of Exploration, with European nations seeking maritime paths to Asia, culminating in the discovery of the Americas by Columbus in 1492 [7] - The need for labor to process the vast resources from colonies prompted European countries to innovate and develop machinery, marking the beginning of the Industrial Revolution [7][10] - By the late 18th century, the introduction of the spinning jenny and the steam engine revolutionized production, leading to the mechanization of the textile industry in Britain [10][12] - The transition from hand production to machine-based manufacturing in the cotton industry was largely completed by 1830, establishing Britain as the first industrialized nation [14] Conclusion - The Industrial Revolution represented a significant leap in productivity and wealth creation, enabling Britain to become a dominant global power, often referred to as the "empire on which the sun never sets" [14] - The conditions that led to the Industrial Revolution were unique to Britain, as other nations lacked the necessary preconditions to replicate this transformation [14]

Core Points - The prevention and control of traditional occupational diseases such as pneumoconiosis and noise-induced hearing loss remain challenging, particularly in small and micro enterprises [1][4] - The number of newly reported occupational disease cases in China has significantly decreased from 26,393 in 2013 to 12,087 in 2023, a reduction of 54.2% [2] - New categories of occupational diseases have been added, including occupational musculoskeletal disorders and occupational mental and behavioral disorders, bringing the total number of legally recognized occupational diseases to 12 categories and 135 types [2][3] Group 1: Occupational Health Challenges - The issue of noise exceeding safety standards is still prominent, especially in high-risk industries such as mining and machinery manufacturing [1][4] - The clinical manifestations of new occupational diseases, such as carpal tunnel syndrome, are primarily caused by repetitive tasks and excessive force, leading to nerve damage and pain in the hands [3] - The prevention of noise-induced hearing loss is critical, with the World Health Organization estimating that by 2050, nearly 2.5 billion people will experience varying degrees of hearing loss, with 16% attributed to workplace noise exposure [4][5] Group 2: Regulatory and Preventive Measures - Employers are required to improve processes and equipment, organize work tasks effectively, and reduce the frequency and load of repetitive wrist tasks [3] - Health checks for workers engaged in repetitive wrist activities are mandated, along with the implementation of supportive standards and increased awareness of self-protection among workers [3] - In 2024, the government will conduct on-site testing of occupational disease hazards at 70,000 employers, focusing on 500,000 key positions [4]

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - In March, the year - on - year profit of large - scale industrial enterprises turned positive to 2.5%, and the profit momentum improved marginally. The increase in quantity, driven by the "rush to export" and inventory replenishment, was the main reason for the profit recovery, despite the expanding year - on - year decline in PPI [26]. - The profit shares of the mid - and downstream industries increased compared to January - February, while the upstream share decreased. The mid - stream equipment manufacturing industry performed well with an expanding year - on - year increase, and the profit growth rates of optional and necessary consumer goods in the downstream weakened [26]. - Looking ahead, the "rush to export" rhythm may slow down in the second quarter. The industrial enterprise profit momentum may weaken marginally due to the potential impact of export slowdown on PPI and sales volume. However, with the "Four Stabilities" policy and possible incremental policies in the middle of the year, the profit recovery may gradually shift to domestic demand such as consumption and investment [29]. 3. Summary According to the Directory 3.1 Industry Perspective: "Rush to Export" Boosts Mid - and Downstream Performance - **Upstream**: The year - on - year decline in the mining industry widened, and the energy supply industry turned from positive to negative in terms of profit growth. For example, coal and oil and gas mining saw an expanded decline in profit, while non - metallic mining turned from negative to positive [9][18]. - **Mid - stream**: The year - on - year profit turned positive, and the equipment manufacturing industry outperformed the material processing industry. The profit of the mid - stream equipment manufacturing industry increased significantly, and the material processing industry also had a positive growth rate of 18% [19][21]. - **Downstream**: The growth rate of necessary consumer goods slowed down, and the profit of optional consumer goods weakened. However, the electronic equipment industry still performed strongly [20][21]. 3.2 Cost End: Marginal Improvement in Profit Margin - From January to March, the cost per 100 yuan of operating income for large - scale industrial enterprises was 85.37 yuan, a year - on - year increase of 0.17 yuan and a 0.26 - yuan increase from January - February. The cost pressure increased marginally. - The expense per 100 yuan of operating income was 8.43 yuan, a year - on - year decrease of 0.16 yuan and a 0.13 - yuan decrease from January - February, indicating significant cost - reduction effects. - The cumulative operating income profit margin was 4.7%, a year - on - year decrease of 0.17 pct but a 0.17 - pct increase from January - February, showing a slow improvement in profit efficiency [22]. 3.3 Inventory: Slight Replenishment of Actual Inventory - By the end of March, the finished - product inventory of large - scale industrial enterprises was 6.55 trillion yuan, with a year - on - year growth of 4.6%, a 0.1 - pct increase from the end of February. After excluding PPI, the actual inventory growth rate was 6.7%, higher than 6.4% in February, indicating a slight replenishment [25]. - From January to March, the turnover days of finished - product inventory were 21.2 days, a 0.1 - day increase year - on - year but a 1.1 - day decrease from January - February. The average collection period of accounts receivable was 70.9 days, a 4.0 - day increase year - on - year but a 4.0 - day decrease from January - February. Although the turnover and collection speed were still slower than the same period, there was a marginal improvement [25]. - In March, the year - on - year growth rate of single - month operating income rose to 4.4%. Considering the expanding price decline, the actual destocking rhythm accelerated compared to January - February [25].
