Industry core view:
The LPR published on March 21, 2022 remains unchanged. The epidemic situation in China has rebounded significantly. A number of banks officially released their annual performance reports. Recently, the banking sector has adjusted. 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.
