At the 2026 interim results conference held on August 28, Lin Li, Executive Director and Vice President of Agricultural Bank of China Limited, stated that current market yields remain at relatively low levels with a relatively flat yield curve. The unrealized valuation gains from bond holdings and trading opportunities arising from market volatility are expected to enhance investment returns, and the bank projects its bond investment performance will maintain the robust and steady momentum seen in the first half of the year.
Lin noted that this year marks the opening year of the "15th Five-Year Plan." The bank will leverage its advantages as a major state-owned bank to seize opportunities in direct financing development, aligning its asset allocation strategies with national development plans as well as fiscal, monetary, and industrial policies to improve the efficiency and quality of its financial market operations.
Looking ahead, the bank will flexibly optimize its allocation strategies based on the bank-wide asset allocation framework and evolving bond market conditions, while strictly adhering to risk and compliance bottom lines.
