Analysis of the Impact of Interest Rate Liberalization on Financial Services Management in Chinese Commercial Banks

Abstract EN

With the advancement of China's interest rate marketization reform, commercial banks' net interest margin has narrowed.

This paper selects 16 representative listed banks as the research object and conducts an empirical analysis from the two dimensions: profit level and profit structure.

The study finds that the marketization of interest rates promoted the narrowing of net interest margins caused by the narrowing of net interest margins, and the profitability of commercial banks was suppressed.

The narrowing of net interest spreads forced commercial banks to actively expand their intermediate business activities and adjust business structure correspondingly.

The narrowing of net interest spreads has different impacts on the profitability of commercial banks of different sizes.
