Here’s what you need to know about China in the past 24 hours
中国经济要闻
Several Chinese commercial banks cut interest rates on a range of yuan deposits from Monday, following their larger peers in a coordinated move to ease pressure on profit margins and help inject liquidity into the real economy.
Eleven major joint-stock banks including China Merchants Bank, Pingan Bank, China CITIC Bank, SPD Bank and China Everbright Bank cut rates on demand deposits by 5 basis points to 0.2 percent from Monday, the banks' websites showed. The lenders cut rates on two-year time deposits by 10 bps, and three-year and five-year time deposits by 15 bps.
More small and medium-sized banks in the country are expected to follow suit in the coming days, analysts said.
The deposit rate cuts follow a similar move by China's biggest state lenders on Friday and marks the second such industry-wide cut within a year, with previous action taken in September.
Experts noted that the move is aimed at reducing the cost of bank liabilities, while nudge the lenders to inject more liquidity into the market to back up domestic consumption and investment, which will shore up economic growth.
Yi Gang, Governor of the People's Bank of China, said at a recent meeting in Shanghai that the central bank will continue to implement a steady monetary policy in a powerful and targeted manner and it will enhance counter-cyclical adjustments to support the real economy, promote employment, and keep the financial system stable.
There will be comprehensive use of monetary policy instruments of various types to keep liquidity and credit reasonably ample, along with a push for a modest fall in comprehensive financing costs for the real economy, he added, but the emphasis on overall stability and keeping the yuan exchange rate steady will remain.
While some analysts expect the deposit rate cuts will provide more room for a further cut soon by the central bank on the medium-term lending facility (MLF), others see the adjustment a follow-up of previous cut of loan prime rate (LPR) and thus the central bank would need more time for the rate cuts to take effect before taking further moves.
6月12日，11家股份行紧随六大行之后，宣布下调了存款挂牌利率，执行具体时间略有先后。
与六大行保持一致，此次存款利率调整情况为：活期存款利率下调5bp至0.2%，2年期存款利率下调10bp，3年、5年期存款利率下调均下调15bp，调整后的定期存款利率继续保持略有不同。
6月8日，六大行同步下调存款利率：活期存款利率下调5bp至0.2%，2年期存款利率下调10bp，3年、5年期存款利率下调均下调15bp，完成后仅邮储银行部分期限存款利率略有不同。由于利率自律机制考核等约束，此次股份行调整存款利率是跟随调整。
去年9月，部分大行、股份行已经率先下调了一轮存款挂牌利率，此次不到一年，六大行、股份行又先后下调存款挂牌利率，与商业银行支持实体经济、存款定期化趋势进一步加强等导致净息差收窄不无关系。
国家金融监督管理总局网站显示，一季度商业银行净息差为1.74%，较2022年四季度的1.91%下降0.17个百分点，再创历史新低。
专家表示，本次下调部分期限品种存款挂牌利率，是银行根据市场供求变化，综合考虑自身经营状况的市场化行为，表明存款利率市场化调整机制作用持续有效发挥。
中国人民银行行长易纲近日赴上海调研金融支持实体经济和促进高质量发展工作时表示，下一步，要继续精准有力实施稳健的货币政策，加强逆周期调节，全力支持实体经济，促进充分就业，维护币值稳定和金融稳定。综合运用多种货币政策工具，保持流动性合理充裕，保持货币信贷总量适度、节奏平稳，推动实体经济综合融资成本稳中有降，保持人民币汇率在合理均衡水平上基本稳定。
其中，“加强逆周期调节”引发市场关注，对比来看，一季度货币政策委员会例会表示，要精准有力实施稳健的货币政策，搞好跨周期调节；2022年四季度货币政策委员会例会表示，要强化跨周期和逆周期调节，加大稳健货币政策实施力度。
6月15日、6月20日央行将发布本月MLF利率、LPR最新数据，但对于二者是否因此次存款利率下调而下调，市场仍存在一些分歧。有分析认为，央行重提加强逆周期调节，体现出经济预期走弱环境下货币政策重新加码的信号，后续不排除重启LPR降息、降准、加大信贷投放等措施。
但也有观点认为，存款利率下调是在LPR下调或者债市利率下行之后，所以本次调整是对前期市场的跟随，而非引导。本月MLF和LPR利率下调概率不高，预计到7月重要会议才会有明确的政策信号。
The number of marriages registered in China last year declined for the ninth consecutive year to the lowest since 1986, when the country began recording the figure. Over 6.8 million couples registered to get married in 2022, down 10.5 percent from the previous year and more than 49 percent from the peak of 14.5 million in 2013, data from the Ministry of Civil Affairs showed on Friday.
2022年全国结婚登记量再探新低：根据民政部官网6月9日公开的“2022年4季度民政统计数据”，去年全国结婚登记量为683.3万对，较上一年减少80.3万对，下降约10.5%，再探新低。此前2021年中国结婚登记数据就已经创下民政部自1986年以来公布结婚数据的历史新低。根据民政部数据统计，我国的结婚数据在2014年就开始逐年下降，2013年为1346.93万对，2019年跌破1000万对大关，2021年又跌破800万对大关。
