Eight Chinese state-owned financial institutions announced on the 6th a capital increase plan totaling up to 360 billion yuan (approximately 8.4 trillion yen). The government plans to issue special government bonds soon, and the simultaneous support for banks, insurance companies, and policy financial institutions is unusual. Amid growing concerns that non-performing loans at financial institutions are swelling due to the real estate downturn, this move aims to strengthen capital and prevent a financial crisis. In March, Premier Li Qiang indicated at the National People's Congress that 300 billion yuan in special government bonds would be issued to inject public funds into major state-owned banks, but this time the support has been expanded to include insurance companies. The Ministry of Finance will issue special government bonds as planned, and the remaining 60 billion yuan will be borne by state-owned enterprises such as those related to tobacco. The capital increases for the three banks total 290 billion yuan, of which ICBC will issue 100 billion yuan in new shares and Agricultural Bank of China will issue 160 billion yuan, with the Ministry of Finance and others underwriting them. The government will also inject 30 billion yuan into the Export-Import Bank of China, and allocate a total of 70 billion yuan to five insurance companies including PICC.
