对话非银-2026年险资配置煤炭有哪些期待

Summary of Conference Call on Insurance Industry and Coal Sector Investment Industry Overview - The insurance industry in China is projected to see a total premium growth of 10% in 2026, reaching approximately 8 trillion yuan, with 30% of new premiums expected to be invested in A-shares, potentially bringing in 300 billion to over 700 billion yuan in incremental funds [1][2][3] - The long-term demand for pension savings in China is significant, with a projected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10% for life insurance over the next decade, potentially reaching a fund balance of 105 trillion yuan by 2035, providing substantial incremental support to the A-share market [1][3] Key Insights on Asset Allocation - The asset shortage in the insurance sector is expected to ease compared to 2025, primarily due to rising bond yields, which have made new single sales costs more acceptable. However, long-term asset allocation pressures remain, with equity assets being a crucial allocation direction [1][4] - The "opening red" period for insurance companies has commenced, with funds starting to flow in. The first quarter is a critical time for asset allocation, particularly for bond assets, while stock asset allocation may be delayed [1][5] Investment Preferences and Trends - Insurance capital shows a strong interest in dividend-paying assets, particularly those that can provide stable investment returns, focusing on companies with stable ROE and attractive valuations. However, there is no clear indication of an intention to increase allocation to the coal sector specifically [1][6][7] - The requirement for dividend yields has decreased, with some companies lowering their entry standards from 5% to between 4% and 4.5%. This change is attributed to the decline in both new and existing liability costs, which have dropped from 3.3% to as low as 1.7% [1][8] Selection Criteria for Investment Targets - Insurance capital is increasingly focused on the relative cost-effectiveness of ROE and PB ratios rather than solely on static indicators like dividend rates or ROE. Sectors that can offer attractive cost-performance ratios and maintain stability are more likely to attract attention [1][9] Important Timeframes for Monitoring - Key periods to watch for potential asset allocation include April-May and October-November, as these times may see profit-taking behaviors due to annual and semi-annual report preparations. Historical data suggests a higher inclination to increase equity asset allocation in August and September, likely influenced by market performance post-interim reports [1][5]
