Industrial Bank Vice President Zhang Ting: Creating a New Digital Engine for Investment and Trading

On March 27, financial front-line news reported that Industrial Bank held a performance briefing for the year 2025. Vice President Zhang Ting projected the future investment trading situation, stating that we aim to continuously improve capital return rates and enhance overall yields. We hope to achieve this through the reconstruction of the FICC system and further improvement of systematic construction to solve the sustainable growth momentum, creating an integrated investment education system that combines on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet, self-operated and entrusted, domestic and overseas. We will focus on three main areas: first, building a professional investment research system; second, creating an agile trading system; and third, establishing an efficient digital system.

First is the establishment of the investment research system. In the next steps, we will continue to improve the decision-making mechanism in the investment trading field, connecting macro industries, market risks, and data, and establishing a diversified investment research system covering fixed income, foreign exchange, commodities, equities, and derivatives, achieving integrated operations for research decision-making execution and review, and better grasping various business opportunities in a complex market.

The second is to build an agile trading system. We firmly believe that in a low-interest, low-volatility environment, trading capability is the decisive factor in determining investment profitability. In the next steps, we will persistently shift from a focus on allocation to multi-asset and multi-strategy approaches, adhering to a strategy of basic positioning plus volatility operations, creating a diversified product system that includes fixed income, foreign exchange, precious metals, and derivatives, strengthening coverage of major global market trading time zones, and continuously consolidating our leading advantage in the trading field across all factors, markets, and products.

The third is to establish an efficient digital system. The application of digital technology, especially AI, is the core driver for enhancing pricing accuracy, strengthening risk control capabilities, optimizing execution efficiency, and obtaining excess returns in investment trading business. In the next steps, we will continue to strengthen practical applications in intelligent trading, intelligent investment research, intelligent pricing, intelligent entrusted services, and intelligent risk control, creating a new digital engine in the field of investment trading.
