State-owned Banks Resume 5-Year Large-Denomination CDs with 1.6% Rate, Net Interest Margin Stabilizes

State-owned banks have resumed issuing five-year large-denomination certificates of deposit (CDs) with an annualized rate of 1.6%, higher than the 1.3% on regular fixed deposits of the same tenor. The move follows a period of deposit rate cuts to protect net interest margins, which are now stabilizing, allowing banks to re-enter the high-cost liability market. Large-denomination CDs offer better yields, higher liquidity via partial withdrawals and transferability, and a minimum subscription of RMB 200,000, appealing to investors seeking low-risk, long-term allocation with enhanced returns.

Since the restart in June 2025, 12 FTZ offshore bonds totaling about RMB 4.3 billion have been issued by overseas branches of Chinese financial institutions, with all issuers and investors offshore. The bonds are mainly RMB-denominated with rates between 1.6% and 1.9%, well below major international currencies. The market was halted earlier due to domestic focus but restarted under the 'both ends outside' principle. Future expansion targets 'going out' and Belt and Road enterprises.

China Construction Bank Enshi Branch Pilots Lunch Break, Sparking Debate on Branch Operations

Starting August 3, 2026, all branches of China Construction Bank's Enshi division will trial a workday lunch break from 12:30 to 14:00, suspending all manual teller services while keeping self-service and online channels 24/7. This marks the first such pilot at a state-owned bank branch level, triggering social media discussion. The trial comes amid industry shifts in bank operating hours, and follows an audit report revealing 1.41 trillion yuan in inflated deposits and loans due to 'involution' competition, plus regulatory fines for deposit targets. The trial's duration remains undetermined.

Banks Close WeChat Mini-Programs, Integrate into Mobile Banking to Cut Costs and Risks

Several banks have recently shut down some WeChat mini-program services, consolidating functions into unified mobile banking apps. Over the past year, large and mid-sized banks as well as local small banks have removed mini-programs. Earlier, direct banking and credit card apps were also merged. The shift reflects cost pressures from overlapping functions and low activity, as well as regulatory risks from data privacy violations. The focus of digital competition is moving from channel quantity to quality.
