Morgan Stanley: Focus on managing net interest spread as internal banks confirm lowered deposit rates.
JPMorgan released a report stating that the announcement by six large state-owned banks of a reduction of deposit interest rates on the previous day (25th) was not unexpected, based on earlier media reports. The bank reiterated its positive view on China mainland banking, based on the narrowing net interest margin gap of two basis points resulting from the reduction of deposit interest rates and loan market quote rates (LPR), which is estimated to increase the bank's earnings by 2% next year. The rapid reduction of deposit interest rates also confirms the bank's view that regulatory authorities and banks are more focused on stabilizing the net interest margin. The bank believes that future interest rate cuts will be symmetrical, and the reduction of deposit interest rates will be accompanied by a reduction in LPR. The bank also noted that regulatory authorities are cracking down on banks' artificial intervention in interest rates, including deposits.
