The trust industry has become a 'big player' with assets of 32 trillion yuan, showing an increasing interest in equity assets.

The transformation of the trust industry is showing accelerating progress. Data from the China Trustee Association shows that as of the end of June, the scale of trust assets has increased to over 32 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of over 20%. In terms of fund flow, over 10 trillion yuan of trust funds have poured into the securities market, according to industry insiders. Under regulatory guidance, more and more trust companies have been focusing on standard asset businesses in recent years, leading to a large influx of trust funds into the securities market. In addition, with the gradual decline of risk-free interest rates, the pace of trust funds increasing allocations to equity assets is accelerating, and in the future, trusts may become important participants in the capital market.
