Listed banks are collectively stepping up write-offs, with ICBC’s one-time clearance of over RMB 80 billion in non-performing assets sparking widespread discussion. Why such a significant move?

① Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC) was not the only institution to intensify its write-off efforts in the first half of this year; other banks, including China Construction Bank, Huaxia Bank, Ping An Bank, and Bank of Jiangsu, also significantly increased their write-offs. ② There are multiple reasons for banks to accelerate the write-off of non-performing loans (NPLs): on one hand, regulatory authorities have encouraged such actions; on the other hand, there is pressure to clear out bad debts. ③ Such large-scale write-offs are generally one-time measures and are not expected to occur frequently.

CICC: Joint Analysis – What Is the Impact of New Policies on Real Estate Sales and Financing?

We believe that the current housing system reform will have profound implications across five dimensions. First, the reform redefines the cash flow management model for real estate enterprises in the new era, with changes primarily reflected in internal rate of return (IRR) levels. Second, it drives systemic shifts in the competitive landscape of the land market; while total volume may experience short-term fluctuations, medium- to long-term trends will still depend on housing price movements. Third, the reform may help accelerate improvements in the supply-demand balance of the housing market, although potential disruptions arising from existing inventory of new homes and the deposit mechanism for completed properties must be considered. Fourth, under a system of sales based on completed properties, cyclical fluctuations may introduce new impacts, such as financial risks during downturns and the slope of growth during upturns, necessitating corresponding policy reserves to hedge against these effects.
