Direct tool transformation and upgrading, Pratt & Whitney microenterprises welcome the "policy gift package"
According to the deployment of the national standing committee meeting on December 15, the central bank will implement the continuous conversion of two direct tools, the inclusive small and micro enterprise loan extension support tool and the inclusive small and micro enterprise credit loan support plan, from January 1, 2022. Specifically:
1) Convert the Pratt & Whitney small and micro enterprise loan extension support tool into Pratt & Whitney small and micro loan support tool. Financial institutions and enterprises independently negotiate loan repayment of principal and interest according to the principle of marketization. From 2022 to the end of June 2023, the people's Bank of China will provide funds according to 1% of the increment of the balance of inclusive small and micro loans of local corporate banks (previously the loan principal), operate quarterly (if the balance increment in the current quarter is negative, the increment will be calculated after making up in subsequent quarters), and encourage the continuous increase of inclusive small and micro loans.
This policy is more an incentive mechanism to encourage local corporate banks to increase the investment of inclusive small and micro loans than a rigid requirement, reflecting the principle of marketization. At the end of September 2021, the balance of inclusive small and micro loans of local corporate banks (urban commercial banks + rural financial institutions) was 8.57 trillion. Assuming the current growth rate of about 20% in the future, it is expected that by the end of June 2023, the balance will increase to about 11.9 trillion, with an increase of about 300 billion from the beginning of 2022. According to a rough calculation of 1%, the total subsidy is about 30 billion yuan, and the annualization in 2022 is about 17.7 billion yuan, It is about 4% of the net profit of local small and medium-sized banks in 2021 (the net profit of urban commercial banks + rural commercial banks in the first three quarters of 2021 is 372.5 billion yuan, which is about 441.4 billion yuan annualized according to the proportion of the first three years).
2) From 2022, the Pratt & Whitney credit loan support plan for small and micro enterprises will be incorporated into the management of re loan for supporting agriculture and supporting small businesses. The original 400 billion yuan refinancing line can be used on a rolling basis. If necessary, the refinancing line can be further increased, and the Pratt Whitney credit loan support plan for small and micro enterprises will no longer be implemented. Since December 7, 2021, the central bank has lowered the interest rates of agricultural re loan and small re loan by 0.25pc, and the three-month / six-month / one-year interest rates are 1.7% / 1.9% / 2% respectively (the upper limit of the preferential interest rate for local legal person financial institutions to issue loans with the special line of agricultural re loan is LPR + 50bps in the latest year, i.e. 3.80% + 0.5% = 4.3%), Qualified local legal person banks may continue to apply to the people's Bank of China for preferential financial support for agricultural and small refinancing with inclusive small and micro credit loans. According to the Q3 monetary policy implementation report, since the introduction of the policy in June 2020 to the end of September 2021, the original inclusive small and micro credit loan support tool has provided 274.4 billion yuan of preferential funds to local corporate banks, supporting them to issue 765.1 billion yuan of credit loans to small and micro enterprises. Subsequent local banks will apply for corresponding preferential fund support according to their own conditions, Embody the principle of "marketization".
On the whole, the transformation and upgrading of the two direct tools continued the tone of supporting the development of Pratt Whitney's small and micro businesses, helped to stabilize the overall market of macroeconomic development, and more reflected the market-oriented operating principle. It is expected that local small and medium-sized banks with rich experience in small and micro businesses and in place risk control will fully benefit, such as Bank Of Ningbo Co.Ltd(002142) , Jiangsu Changshu Rural Commercial Bank Co.Ltd(601128) .
The macro Prudential policy framework was introduced to further improve the regulatory framework
On December 31, the people's Bank of China issued the macro Prudential policy guidelines (for Trial Implementation), clarifying the elements of China's macro Prudential policy framework and promoting the healthy development of the financial system.
1. The main objective of the implementation of macro Prudential policy is to prevent systemic financial risks (risk sources include two dimensions of time and structure). The monitoring focus includes: macro leverage ratio, debt level and solvency of government, enterprises and household sectors, financial institutions, financial markets, financial products and financial infrastructure with systemic importance and strong risk spillover.
2. Macro Prudential tools are divided into 9 categories in two dimensions: 1) time dimension tools: used for counter cyclical adjustment and smoothing the pro cyclical fluctuation of the financial system, including capital management, liquidity management, asset liability management, financial market transaction behavior and cross-border capital flow management; 2) Structural dimension: by improving the regulatory requirements for key nodes of the financial system, prevent systemic financial risks from cross institutional, cross market, cross sectoral and cross-border infection. Including additional regulatory provisions of specific institutions, financial infrastructure management, cross market financial product management, risk disposal and other management tools to block risk infection.
3. Strengthen policy coordination: 1) strengthen the coordination and cooperation between macro Prudential policy and monetary policy, including strengthening information communication and exchange in economic situation analysis and financial risk monitoring; In the process of macro Prudential policy-making, consider the orientation of monetary policy, fully solicit the opinions of monetary policy-making departments, and evaluate the possible spillover and superposition effects of policy introduction; 2) Strengthen coordination and cooperation with micro prudential supervision, including comprehensively considering the micro prudential supervision environment in the process of macro Prudential policy formulation, fully soliciting the opinions of micro regulatory authorities, evaluating the possible spillover and superposition effects of policy introduction, and jointly formulating macro Prudential management requirements with micro regulatory authorities when involving the areas under the jurisdiction of micro regulatory authorities; 3) We will strengthen coordination and cooperation with national development plans, fiscal policies, industrial policies and credit policies, and improve the ability of financial services to the real economy.

Among them, the PMI of large and medium-sized enterprises rose by 1.1 and 0.1pc to 51.3% and 51.3% respectively, and the PMI of small enterprises fell by 2.0 percentage points to 46.5%, which may be related to the continuous and repeated epidemic situation in China recently.
On the whole, under the tone of "stable growth", with the real estate stability maintenance + infrastructure development (recently, the Ministry of finance has issued a new special debt limit of 1.46 trillion yuan in 2022 to all localities in advance, which will be issued and used in the first quarter of next year), Q1 credit is expected to usher in a "small peak".
