First of all, in terms of loans, the annual growth rate of corporate loans is 15%, but the structure is weak. Generally, the investment in corporate loans is relatively weak, and the annual growth rate has dropped significantly to 8%. There is a slight pressure drop in the scale in the second half of the year. At the same time, the impulse of bills is obvious, and the scale at the end of the year has doubled compared with the beginning of the year, or due to the insufficient effective demand under the influence of macro-economy and epidemic, which is also the main reason for the continuous decline of loan yield.

On the liability side, the growth of deposits in the first three quarters was relatively weak. Deposits improved significantly with the increase of efforts to attract deposits in the fourth quarter, but the degree of deposit periodization increased during the year. At the same time, the intensity of active liabilities increased throughout the year, and the scale of interbank certificates of deposit + 30% year-on-year also raised the cost of active liabilities. The current deposit interest rate of the company has risen to a historically high level, which has a great consumption on the profits of the overall asset side.
