Securities companies: the head effect of the industry is prominent, and they are optimistic about the opportunities of big wealth management leaders and head securities companies
(1) the annual reports of listed securities companies were intensively disclosed last week. As of April 5, the total net profit of 35 listed securities companies that disclosed their performance in 2021 was + 29% year-on-year, slightly lower than our previous expectations. It is expected to be mainly affected by impairment provision and investment income. From the annual report, the industry shows an increasing trend of concentration. Among the 35 securities companies that disclosed their performance, Cr6 / Cr12 accounted for 50.0% / 79.4% respectively (50.0% / 78.6% respectively in 2020).

Wealth management, public funds and derivatives have become important new engines for the profit growth of securities companies, which is expected to drive the profit growth of leading securities companies. The net profit of public funds raised by securities companies increased year-on-year, which basically met our expectations. The net profit contribution of Orient Securities Company Limited(600958) and Gf Securities Co.Ltd(000776) big wealth management lines reached 54% / 29% respectively.

Insurance: focus on the recovery of the prosperity of property insurance, the bottom of life insurance valuation, and observe the progress of transformation
(1) last week, the listed insurance companies held a performance briefing in 2021. In terms of life insurance, it has basically become a consensus that life insurance is in the severe winter of the industry, high-quality agents are the core of transformation, and the upgrading of channels + products + services is carried out at the same time. There is no clear judgment on the effective time of the transformation. We believe that the efficiency improvement after the manpower bottoms out or a better forward-looking indicator. At present, the industry manpower is still in a downward trend. We expect that the probability of negative year-on-year growth of NBV in the first quarter of 2022 and the whole year is high. In terms of property insurance, the auto insurance business of head insurance enterprises has the advantages of data, pricing and service. With the increase of average vehicle premium, the penetration rate of new energy vehicles and the optimization of the pattern, the auto insurance may usher in a high outlook. At the same time, the impact of major disasters may be less than 2021, and the head insurance enterprises are expected to achieve better underwriting profits. (2) The recovery of property insurance boom is worthy of attention, and China’s property insurance has benefited significantly; At present, life insurance is at the bottom of valuation, and the pessimistic expectation response on the liability side and asset side is relatively sufficient. However, the impact of the epidemic, the macroeconomic boom in 2022 and the growth rate of NBV in the process of transformation are still uncertain. China’s recommended asset of and H-end insurance is the leading asset of and H-end insurance.
