The government will also endeavor to ensure that the amount of capital market financing surpasses 1 trillion RMB this year. The most recent goal is to make sure the credit growth and deposit growth within the second quarter are higher than 12.1 percent and 9 percent respectively.
Offering various sorts of loans to meet business of all kinds and scales, Guangdong strives to help corporations with good credit and promising development prospects that have been impacted by the pandemic to overcome obstacles.
In addition, by optimizing its structure of investment and finance, the province is planning to have 100 new domestically listed companies and listed overseas companies within the province by the end of 2022.
