Banking week view: there is still room for policy

Industry core view:

Since the fourth quarter of 2021, the first home loan interest rate has been continuously reduced. From the current position, there is still some room for reduction. The epidemic is still the main variable restricting the expansion of short-term credit. In the future, we will pay close attention to the changes in price trends and the adjustment of monetary policies in major developed economies, taking into account internal and external balance. At present, the valuation of the banking sector is still at a historical low, so it is recommended to continue to pay attention.
