On the news front, the Central Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China held a meeting to discuss the current economic situation and deploy the next economic work. SHWY pointed out that the real estate industry is once again bullish, which will help further alleviate the market's risk-averse sentiment towards insurance companies' real estate risks on the asset side, suppressing the sector's valuation; expectations are high for the capital market's special policies to boost, subsequently promoting a set of policies for insurance capital entering the market.

Everbright Securities believes that in the long term, on the one hand, with the repeated reduction of bank deposit interest rates, coupled with bank wealth management and publicly offered fund products being vulnerable to capital market disruptions, savings-type insurance products with a 2.5% scheduled interest rate still have some appeal. On the other hand, the dynamic adjustment mechanism of scheduled interest rates will significantly benefit insurance companies in adjusting liability costs promptly in response to market changes, which is conducive to the industry's improvement in asset-liability management in the long run.
