(Xinhua News Agency)The European Central Bank announced the change in the data release of the Emergency Anti-epidemic Bond Purchase Program (PEPP). The European Central Bank said that on December 5, 2024, the Management Committee approved the change in the data release of the monetary policy portfolio under the Emergency Anti-epidemic Bond Purchase Program (PEPP), because with the time to suspend reinvestment under the Emergency Anti-epidemic Bond Purchase Program (PEPP) at the end of 2024 approaching, the euro system will not be in the asset purchase program or emergency anti-epidemic for the first time since 2014. Predictable changes will ensure that the level of transparency provided by future published data remains appropriate. It is reported that the data of the Emergency Anti-epidemic Bond Purchase Program (PEPP) will be released once a month instead of once every two months to match the equivalent asset purchase program data series, and the series of historical monthly data since the launch of the program will be released. The release systems of emergency anti-epidemic bond purchase plan (PEPP) and asset purchase plan will be further aligned, including the release of retrospective and prospective redemption data of PEPP. The change will be implemented from January 8, 2025.

According to the analysis of market institutions, the financial data of the current month are greatly influenced by disposal of non-performing assets and resolution of local debts. The reform of financial institutions has been carried out in an orderly manner, and the disposal of non-performing assets of commercial banks has pressed the "acceleration button". According to industry insiders, the write-off of non-performing loans is only a bank accounting treatment, and the lending relationship between banks and enterprises has not changed, which does not directly affect the business activities of the real economy. In November, some non-performing loans were sold through packaging, transfer and sale, so that non-performing assets were listed as a whole. This part is not included in the scale of social financing, which will have a certain impact on the growth rate of social financing scale, but it will also not affect the financing relationship of the real economy. In addition, the intensity of localized debts has increased, and local governments may accelerate the replacement of debts in the short term, affecting the credit stock. It is understood that the Ministry of Finance has issued new local debt limits to all localities, and some provinces have started issuing them. At present, the total amount of special bonds issued by local governments in China has basically reached the planned annual issuance quota. According to market research, after the financing platform and other entities get the special debt funds, most of them will repay the debts in about 10 to 20 days, most of which are loans, so as to avoid "paying interest at both ends" of bonds and loans. It is estimated that nearly 250 billion yuan of local bond swap will be completed nationwide in November, and there will be a larger bond swap in December. According to industry insiders, for local governments, after the debt pressure is released slowly, it is more conducive to the development of the real economy, which is good for relieving the debt chain, smoothing the economic cycle and preventing risks, and has multiple positive effects.
