Macro leverage (宏观杠杆率)

The macro leverage ratio is the ratio of a country's total debt to GDP. The macro leverage ratio is generally measured by the ratio of the debt balance of the non-financial enterprise sector (hereinafter referred to as the enterprise sector), the government sector, and the household sector to the gross domestic product (GDP).

 

The leverage ratio of government departments is calculated by dividing the debt of government departments by the nominal GDP. It can be further divided into the central government leverage ratio and the local government leverage ratio.

 

The calculation of the leverage ratio of the residential sector is to divide the debt of the residential sector by the nominal GDP.

 

 


A new framework of "three levels and two advantages" reserve ratio (三档两优准备金率新框架)

"Three levels" refers to setting the deposit reserve ratio into three benchmark levels according to the importance of the financial institution system, the nature of the institution, and the service positioning.

 

The first level is the deposit reserve ratio of large banks, reflecting the requirements of preventing systemic risks and maintaining financial stability. 

 

The second tier is the deposit reserve ratio of medium-sized banks, which is slightly lower than the first tier. Medium-sized banks mainly include joint-stock commercial banks and urban commercial banks; 

 

The third tier is the reserve ratio of small banks, including rural credit cooperatives, rural cooperative banks, rural banks, and rural commercial banks serving counties.

 

"Two advantages" means that there are two advantages on the basis of the three benchmark grades:

 

(1)   banks in the first and second grades who meet the assessment criteria for the targeted reduction of the reserve ratio of inclusive finance can enjoy a deposit reserve ratio of 0.5 or 1.5 percentage points; 

 

(2)   banks serving counties that have reached a certain proportion of new deposits for local loan assessment standards can enjoy a 1 percentage point deposit reserve ratio discount. 

 

Considering that the banks serving the county as inclusive financial institutions have already enjoyed a low-grade deposit reserve ratio, they will no longer enjoy the preferential assessment of targeted reduction of the reserve ratio of inclusive finance. After enjoying the "two advantages", the actual deposit reserve ratio of financial institutions is lower than the benchmark.

 

 


Bimodal regulation (双峰监管)

 

Under the Bimodal regulatory model, the prudential regulatory authority is specially responsible for the prudential operation and solvency supervision of the regulated, including the supervision of capital adequacy, liquidity, non-performing assets, and finance; 

 

The behavior supervision institution is responsible for the behavior supervision of financial institutions and the protection of financial consumers, and finally implements the regulatory goal of "the buyer is responsible and the seller is responsible". 

 

Each regulatory agency has clear and simple objectives, a clear division of responsibilities, smooth coordination, and easy accountability. The "double peak" regulation avoids the main defects of institutional and functional supervision and is an effective institutional arrangement.
