Industry core view:
Looking back on 2021, the performance of the banking sector has rebounded for three consecutive quarters, while the overall valuation of the sector remains low. Looking forward to 2022, the sector may continue to confirm the continuity of policies and performance growth in the short term. In the medium and long term, we believe that the internal differentiation of the banking sector will continue. It is suggested to pay attention to the banks whose proportion of intermediate business income continues to increase and the banks whose fundamentals continue to improve.
