Zhitang has organized the content of this briefing as follows for readers.
<h2>Equity and Debt Allocation Strategy</h2>
Property and casualty insurance has no funding cost for liabilities, with a short liability duration, allowing for more flexible allocation.
In terms of fixed income investments, the company will continue to adopt a flexible duration strategy, allocating to interest rate bonds opportunistically based on market conditions; it will maintain high credit rating standards and selectively allocate quality varieties.
In terms of equity investments, the company will stabilize equity positions, enrich equity investment strategies, continue to allocate high-dividend varieties opportunistically, and actively seize investment opportunities in high-growth varieties, enhancing returns through swing trading; it will select equity projects and actively promote the company's industrial investment layout.
<h2>Anticipating Bond Market Fluctuations</h2>
We believe that after the risk appetite in the equity market has risen and the distortions in the yield curve have been corrected, the bond market will be in a state of fluctuation for a certain period in the future. We believe that the current trend of China's economy continues to improve steadily.
<h2>Details of Private Equity Platform Operations</h2>
<blockquote>
Currently, PICC Asset's &#34;PICC Qiyuan Huizhong (Beijing) Private Fund Management Co., Ltd.&#34; has been officially established. Subsequently, it will issue contract-type private securities investment funds, with PICC Life Insurance as the sole holder, and the initial investment scale is expected to be 10 billion yuan.
