Recently, a number of small and medium-sized banks issued announcements to reduce the interest rates of current deposits, lump sum deposits & amount withdrawals, fixed deposits by installments and other deposit varieties. This is a new round of "interest rate cuts" on deposits by small and medium-sized banks after the self-regulatory cap on commercial bank call deposits and agreement deposits was lowered on May 15. This round of deposit interest rate cuts is mainly concentrated in the 1-year to 5-year time deposits, the reduction range is concentrated between 5 to 30 basis points, and some time deposit varieties are adjusted up to 30 basis points. Industry insiders believe that the impact of this round of reducing deposit interest rates is mainly from two aspects. Firstly, it is conducive to alleviating the pressure on small and medium-sized bank liabilities and uplifting the net interest margin. Secondly, the subsequent pressure on small and medium-sized banks to collect deposits may be raised.
