The performance growth rate continued to rise, and the non interest business performed well

The company disclosed the annual report of 2021. The annual revenue was slightly higher than that disclosed in the express, and the net profit attributable to the parent was consistent with that disclosed in the express. Among them, the revenue, profit before provision and net profit attributable to the parent company of 21q4 increased by 15.63%, 11.93% and 26.58% respectively year-on-year. The year-on-year growth rate of the company’s revenue was further in 21q4, mainly due to the rise in the growth rate of interest spread business income while the non interest business maintained a high growth rate. Among them, the net interest margin in the fourth quarter showed an upward trend both year-on-year and month on month; The annual non interest business income and net income from handling fees and commissions accounted for 38.44% and 28.51% of the revenue, both maintaining a high and stable level

The net interest margin stabilized and rebounded, and the debt side was significantly optimized

In 2021, the company’s net interest margin was 2.48%, down 1bp year-on-year, of which 21q4 net interest margin was 2.48%, up 1bp month on month compared with 21q3, and the interest margin stopped the downward trend. The inclination of loan to individual housing makes the yield of retail loans under pressure to a certain extent. Small and micro loans and credit card loans are mainly short-term, and the loan yield is high. However, at the same time, the company insists on selecting high-quality customers in stable industries and with stable income as the main source of customers. In terms of credit cards, the company strengthens the asset management of low-risk customers. Although it reduces the credit yield to a certain extent, it also ensures the stability of asset quality.

Under the pressure of asset side yield, the company continued to strengthen the high-quality growth of deposits. The strong ability to collect deposits has built the company’s core competitive advantage. The cost rate of demand deposits, which accounts for more than 60% of the company, is only 0.7%, leaving sufficient room for improvement on the liability side. The double optimization of public and retail deposits shows the strong living ability of public deposits and the low-cost capital precipitation strength of retail wealth management. In the environment of reducing the financing cost of the real economy, it is expected that the optimization of the deposit side will still carry the banner of stabilizing the net interest margin.
