Capital leverage ratio (= core net capital/total on- and off-balance sheet assets): For three consecutive years, the denominator of AA-rated securities companies has been discounted by 30%.
Net stable funding rate (= available stable funding/required stable funding): Optimize the calculation of the denominator and lower itCSI 500short-term assets.
The risk coverage ratio and liquidity coverage ratio have also been optimized. For example, the risk capital calculation coefficient of high-quality securities companies has been reduced. The conversion coefficient of AA-level and above (inclusive) securities companies has been reduced from 0.5 to 0.4 for three consecutive years.

Among them, optimizing and improving the risk control indicator calculation standards for securities firms to carry out market making, asset management, participation in public offering REITs and other businesses is the core content of this revision and is also of concern to the industry.
In the draft for comments, for securities firms that carry out market-making business recognized by regulatory agencies, the market risk capital reserves for financial assets and derivatives held in market-making accounts are calculated at 90% of each calculation standard; for a single investment in standardized assets The specific risk capital reserves for asset management plans and collective asset management plans are simultaneously adjusted from 0.3% and 0.5% to 0.1%.
