Central bank data showed that household deposits increased by 10.33 trillion yuan in the first half of the year.
This hit a new high for the same period in recent years, meaning that in the first half of the year, an average of about 57.1 billion deposits poured into banks every day.
The survey report on urban savers in the second quarter showed that 58.3% of the residents were inclined to save more, an increase of 3.6 percentage points from the previous quarter.
Residents' deposits have grown significantly and their willingness to save has increased. On the one hand, due to the impact of the epidemic, consumer spending has declined, and at the same time, uncertain factors have increased, resulting in a significant increase in residents' awareness of prevention and their willingness to save.
On the other hand, the capital market has fluctuated since the beginning of this year, residents' risk appetite has declined, and some funds have flowed back to deposits.
