Core Viewpoint - The establishment of bank fintech subsidiaries has not led to the expected growth and profitability, with many returning to their parent banks due to operational challenges and market competition [9][15][37]. Group 1: Industry Overview - The fintech subsidiary of SPDB, PuYin JinKe, opened in Shanghai on August 5, 2024, but this does not indicate a revival of bank tech subsidiaries, as the industry has seen a decline in new establishments since 2022 [4][6]. - Over the past decade, more than 20 banks have established fintech subsidiaries, driven by the need for improved cybersecurity and competition from internet financial companies [7][8]. - Despite initial hopes, these subsidiaries have struggled to generate independent revenue and often rely on their parent banks for survival [9][15]. Group 2: Financial Performance - Financial reports indicate that many fintech subsidiaries have failed to achieve profitability. For instance, ZhongYin JinKe reported a net profit of only 0.11 million yuan in the first half of 2024, while Financial One Account has accumulated losses of 7.33 billion yuan from 2017 to 2023 [18][19]. - The business model of these subsidiaries often leads to losses, as seen with XingYe ShuJin, which reported a net loss of 1.67 million yuan in the first half of 2019 [19]. Group 3: Market Dynamics - The fintech market has become increasingly competitive, with major players like Alibaba and Tencent dominating the financial cloud market, leaving bank subsidiaries struggling to gain market share [29]. - Regulatory changes have also impacted the ability of these subsidiaries to operate independently, as new guidelines restrict the outsourcing of core IT functions [26][27]. Group 4: Future Outlook - The trend of fintech subsidiaries returning to their parent banks is expected to continue, as their primary revenue source remains servicing the parent bank, which diminishes their independent operational significance [37][39]. - The lack of competitive advantage and the challenges in providing innovative solutions further complicate the sustainability of these subsidiaries [39][40].
