China Fund News reporter Guo Yujun

How long does it take for small and medium-sized enterprises to apply for bank loans? How much can I get? The answer of Shenzhen Yuanxing Technology Co., Ltd. (Yuanxing Technology) is-"in a few seconds, 5 million".

As a specialized and innovative small and medium-sized enterprise in Shenzhen, Yuanxing Technology is one of many small and medium-sized enterprises served by Weizhong Bank.

The shortage of collateral, difficulty in obtaining effective information and high cost for small and medium-sized enterprises are the main blocking points that restrict financial institutions from providing financing services for them. How did Weizhong Bank do it?

"Shenzhen Scheme" of Credit Service Entity Economy

Promote financing of over 120 billion yuan.

It is understood that in order to solve the problem of information asymmetry and solve the problem of difficult and expensive financing for small and medium-sized enterprises, on January 10, 2022, with the strong support of the head office of the People’s Bank of China and the Shenzhen Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, Shenzhen Credit Information Bureau completed the filing of enterprise credit information agencies and officially operated it. Weizhong Bank is one of the first deep cooperative banks in Shenzhen Credit Information.

Shenzhen Credit Information Co., Ltd. provides risk control decision support for different banks’ risk preferences by jointly building innovative laboratories with banks or providing customized services, effectively promoting bank customer identification and credit supply, and achieving "second-to-second loans and instant loans". At present, it has carried out in-depth cooperation with four banks, including China Construction Bank, Bank of China, Bank of Ningbo and Weizhong Bank, and jointly built an innovation laboratory with China Construction Bank, and launched 12 customized service products.

It is an important measure for the People’s Bank of China to implement financial support for small and medium-sized enterprises and serve the development of the real economy by building a local credit reporting platform, filing enterprise credit reporting institutions, collecting and sharing enterprise-related credit data of government departments and public institutions according to law, and cleaning and processing them according to credit reporting business rules, so as to stably export products that meet the requirements of financial institutions.

According to the data released by Shenzhen Central Sub-branch of the People’s Bank of China, by the end of May 2023, the platform had collected and shared 1.13 billion pieces of enterprise-related credit data from 37 government departments and public institutions, achieved full coverage of more than 4 million active commercial entities in Shenzhen, and completed technical and business docking with 51 commercial banks in the city, serving more than 210,000 enterprises in total, which helped enterprises obtain financing of 120.5 billion yuan, of which small and micro enterprises accounted for 87% and credit loans accounted for 87%.

The construction of local credit information platform in Shenzhen adheres to the principle of "taking demand as the center" and "being practical, easy to use and sustainable". Practice has proved that it is a feasible and effective "Shenzhen scheme" to alleviate the financing information asymmetry problem of small and medium-sized enterprises.

"Precision Drip Irrigation" Small and Medium-sized Enterprises

According to reports, since 2022, Weizhong Bank’s artificial intelligence (AI) team and Shenzhen Credit Information Platform have conducted several rounds of in-depth communication and cooperation in privacy computing, federal learning, data products, etc., for example, while ensuring data security and privacy, further explore data value from more dimensions and explore innovative data products that are more in line with business scenarios. Next, the two sides will strengthen cooperation, fully focus on the value of data, release data productivity, provide more convenient services for enterprises to apply for financing, and let inclusive finance "drip irrigation" every small and medium-sized enterprise to help the high-quality development of the real economy.

The reporter learned from Shenzhen Central Sub-branch of the People’s Bank of China that Shenzhen local credit information platform provides customized joint modeling services for "easy loan" loan products, aiming at Bank of Ningbo’s problems such as asymmetric information between banks and enterprises and difficulty in controlling credit risks, combined with Bank of Ningbo’s credit standards, and uses data mining methods such as machine learning and correlation maps to deeply analyze and mine multidimensional data such as business, operation and employment of enterprises, forming quantitative model products, and fully empowering bank risk management and control. One month after its launch, it helped 87 small and micro enterprises to obtain financing of 235 million yuan.

According to Shenzhen Construction Bank, as of May 2023, Shenzhen Construction Bank has introduced eight data products, including enterprise personnel size, enterprise subsidy information report and enterprise concern information report, which have been actually applied to the pre-lending, mid-lending and post-lending links of Shenzhen Construction Bank’s loan products related to small and medium-sized enterprises. By May, 2023, a total of 267,000 data of Shenzhen Credit Information Company had been called, covering more than 164,000 enterprises.

For example, in terms of pre-lending access, in order to judge the real business situation of customers, account managers need to complete due diligence through on-site visits and various government websites, which takes a long time. After introducing the enterprise personnel size analysis and enterprise subsidy information data of Shenzhen Credit Information, Shenzhen Construction Bank, combined with the data sources in the bank, directly judges through the loan product model of Shenzhen Construction Bank, which greatly improves the approval efficiency.

Shenzhen Branch of Bank of Communications is cooperating with the credit information platform to promote the development of data-driven innovative product "high-enterprise loan". The scope of data cooperation includes enterprise social security, provident fund, operational stability and other trend data. By enriching the dimensions of enterprise data, Shenzhen Branch of Bank of Communications can improve its judgment on the continuous operation ability and stability of enterprises. Make use of the rich data dimension of Shenzhen Credit Information, create a highly online "high-enterprise loan", actively grant credit to national high-tech enterprises, and improve the credit coverage of technology enterprises.

"Shenzhen Plan" is far ahead.

Provide reference for the construction of domestic credit information system.

Weizhong Bank is a pure internet online bank, which has the ability to provide online credit services for small and medium-sized enterprises across the country. According to Liang Huan, head of science and technology finance in the enterprise market and innovation business department of Weizhong Bank, all parts of the credit information platform also want to do it. The data of Shenzhen credit information platform is far ahead of the national level, whether it is a data source or a specific application (such as combining with banks to serve small and micro enterprises).

Ceng Gang, deputy director of Shanghai Finance and Development Laboratory, said that the credit information platform, as a carrier of credit information, plays an important role in breaking the "information island" by collecting and sharing the enterprise-related information held by local government departments and public utilities, and connecting with "government, banks and enterprises". Generally speaking, the establishment of local credit information platform is helpful to the formation of the strategic layout of "national+local" and "government+market", which can effectively promote the docking between financial institutions and small and medium-sized enterprises and improve the quality and efficiency of microfinance services.

Ceng Gang pointed out that at present, all localities are actively building credit information platforms, but there are still some problems, such as low level of system development and data mining, high repetition of data content, and difficulty in continuously and effectively collecting data. Many local credit information platforms still aim at increasing the number of data. Comparatively speaking, the data of Shenzhen Credit Information has obvious advantages in information timeliness and data granularity. On the one hand, the platform can timely reflect the changes of corporate, registered capital, registered address and other industrial and commercial information of enterprises, help banks to identify whether enterprises are operating normally or not, and timely identify and control the risks of existing customers. On the other hand, through in-depth analysis and mining of data, the platform can further reveal the hidden depth information of data, which can help banks realize online accurate classification of enterprises, not only reduce manual entry, improve customer experience, but also facilitate the implementation of differentiated risk strategies.

According to Liu Zhen, executive deputy general manager of Shenzhen Credit Information, since the establishment of the platform in 2022, Shenzhen Credit Information has received about 30 local credit information platforms across the country and shared the experience of Shenzhen with them. Liu Zhen said: "We are also actively exploring to build and share systematic data products with some local credit information platforms that started late, including promoting mutual recognition of our superior data standards and conducting more commercial cooperation.

Liu Xinhai, executive deputy director of the Credit Management Committee of the All-China M&A Association, said that as the front window of reform and opening up, the number of small and micro enterprises in Shenzhen Special Economic Zone is not only large, but also more dynamic, and the demand for financing is also more urgent. Making full use of public big data resources and privacy computing, the market demand drives the research and development of alternative data models for credit reporting. Shenzhen actively builds a local credit reporting platform, focusing on scene innovation, which has achieved fruitful results in a short period of time, and gives a successful "Shenzhen Plan", which can provide valuable reference for the construction of domestic credit reporting system.
