At present, the disclosure time of the annual reports of 42 A-share listed banks has been proposed, and the publication time is concentrated in mid and late March and April. As of February 17, 19 listed banks had disclosed their performance in 2021 through the performance express, accounting for nearly 50%. The profit level of commercial banks remains stable, and the overall growth of the performance of listed banks in 2021 is inevitable.
From the performance of the four joint-stock industries that have disclosed the performance express, the revenue has maintained positive growth, and the net profit has achieved double-digit growth. There are three reasons for the sharp increase in net profit: first, joint-stock banks have increased support for the real economy, expanded credit, and maintained a stable scale of revenue; Second, the reduction of policy interest rate and digital transformation have boosted the reduction of bank capital cost and operating cost, and thickened the net profit space; Third, the gradual recovery of macro-economy supports bank performance.
The asset scale of the four joint-stock banks increased steadily, the asset quality improved, the non-performing loan ratio continued to decline, the provision coverage increased, and the risk resilience was further strengthened. However, the provision coverage of China Citic Bank Corporation Limited(601998) and China Everbright Bank Company Limited Co.Ltd(601818) is still far from 196.91% of that of commercial banks, and the risk resistance needs to be further strengthened.

two and four joint-stock industries achieved double-digit growth in net profit
