Domestic News
1. All regulatory branches of the State Administration of Financial Supervision and Administration are listed in a unified manner
The reporter learned that at 10:00 a.m. on April 8, all regulatory branches of the State Administration of Financial Supervision and Administration held a unified listing ceremony. This means that the State Administration of Financial Supervision and Administration has formally formed a regulatory system of "General Administration - Provincial Level- Sub-Administration - Branch", which previously existed in the form of a supervision group. The listing of all regulatory branches of the State Administration of Financial Supervision and Administration means that China's county-level financial regulatory reform has taken an important step, which is expected to make up for the weak financial supervision at the county level, and the ability to prevent and resolve financial risks will be further enhanced.
2. National Energy Administration: Strengthen the construction of energy production, supply, storage and marketing system
Zhang Jianhua, Director of the National Energy Administration, pointed out in an article that it is necessary to strengthen the construction of the energy production, supply, storage and marketing system, accelerate the improvement of the safe and reliable substitution capacity of new energy, strengthen the role of fossil energy security supporting, build a multi-wheel driving energy supply system, and effectively build a solid foundation for energy security, so as to provide a strong energy guarantee for the construction of a strong country and national rejuvenation.
3. A number of small and medium-sized banks announced a reduction in deposit interest rates, ranging from 15 to 80 basis points
A new round of deposit interest rate "interest rate cuts" is coming, and local small and medium-sized banks collectively "make up for the reduction". On April 7, the reporter studied and found that recently, rural commercial banks and village banks in Shaanxi, Shanxi and Henan announced that they would reduce deposit interest rates, covering short-term, medium and long-term time deposits, and the interest rate reduction range was about 15-80 basis points. In the 2023 annual reports of listed banks, the data of many banks have reflected the trend of fixed-term deposits, and many senior executives also expressed control over the scale of high-cost deposits at the results conference. Under the battle to defend interest rate spreads, a new round of deposit rate cuts is still a high probability event.
4. Under high base points, the export growth rate in March may fall but still be resilient
According to the data released by the General Administration of Customs in March, the total value of China's imports and exports in the first two months of this year was 930.86 billion US dollars, an increase of 5.5%. Among them, exports were 528.01 billion US dollars, an increase of 7.1 percent, imports were 402.85 billion US dollars, an increase of 3.5 percent, and a trade surplus was 125.16 billion US dollars, an increase of 20.5 percent. Ming Ming, chief economist of CITIC Securities, said in an interview that in the first two months of this year, the scale of China's import and export of goods hit a record high in the same period in history. From the perspective of export structure, China's exports to the "Belt and Road" countries have achieved high growth. However, affected by the high base effect in the same period last year, exports in March this year may have a year-on-year phased decline, but they can still remain relatively resilient.

During the meeting, Al-Khasawneh said that Jordan firmly supports the legitimate rights of Palestine and called on Israel to immediately stop its "aggression" against the Gaza Strip.
