With the government's increasing attention on shadow banking, it's a question that warrants consideration, i.e., how will the trust mode which once focused on channel businesses develop in the future?
Uncontrollable policy risks
Weakening advantage in licenses and low barriers to entry
to the business mode
Unsustainable profitability
The trust
industry
call for
transforma
tion
Regulators keep strengthening supervision of shadow banking
Policies make a greater impact on the business, which are uncontrollable.
Controls are removed on homogeneous businesses in asset management
companies, securities companies and fund firms' subsidiaries.
Low market entry requirements; fierce competition takes shape rapidly
Relationship-driven business modes and individual-binded business
resources exacerbate the business instability
Competition among peers causes spreads of the channel business shrink rapidly
Low value added of the business and weak active management capabilities
Source: management's analysis
Regulators keep launching regulation policies, in a bid to push the whole trust industry to build active investment management capabilities
CBRC issued Document No. 99 …Push forward the industry transformation
Clarify the transformation direction
• Innovation in "debt-based trust direct financing
instrument"
• Propose five directions:
− Equity investment: can establish PE
subsidiaries
− M&As
− Securitization of credit assets
− Wealth management
− Charitable trust
• Standardize the existing businesses: cash pool,
channel/credit-linked business
• Properly handle product risks
• Buyer accountability, Seller liability
• Establish long-acting risk control mechanism
• Information registration mechanisms for trust
products
• Improve supervision mechanisms: to oversee
boundaries, put an emphasis on industry
monitoring, fortify on-going supervision, improve
capital regulation, and strengthen management of
trust personnel
• Classified operation mechanisms for trust

A、Opinions on development trend of China's RE market
• China's RE market is flagging in the short run, still has potential in the long term
• Consensus on market adjustment, differentiated polarization due to the different types of city and capabilities
of developer
• Preference to quality counterparties, the cities with reasonable demand and supply, the projects located in key
areas
• Preference to inflexible or improvement projects
Market
predictions
Trading volume
• The Jan-May sales volume significantly
fell from the previous year, but rose
from 2011, 2012
• Currently, the credit environment is
relaxing, with continued wait-and-see
sentiment
• Excess inventory will push developers
to lower prices, and the trading volume
will support the adjustment of supply
Price Market demand
• Purchasing power: The growth in
Residents' incomes is higher than home
prices over the same period, the
purchasing power is not obviously
worsened
• Price trend: The trend for home prices
is going downside, the pressure from
growing inventory is pushing the drop in
prices. Downward adjustment of tier-1
cities is fast; tier-3, 4 cities face the drop
in prices
• Judgment on price drop risk: The
cities (Huhhot, Dalian, Fuzhou,
Hangzhou etc.) facing heavy pressure
from growing inventory may see the
price drop risk; the ones with small
amount of supply may see sustained
home prices.
• Urbanization: For every 1% of
urbanization progress, there will be a
new demand for 5mm corresponding
homes
• Old home replacement: Along with
the improvement in residents' live
quality, the old homes built during the
1970s and 1980s could need to be
replaced by new ones.
• Inflexible demand: Long-term
inflexible demand drives the steady
growth of demand for homes
