People’s Finance News, April 2—A research report from CITIC Securities states that the insurance sector has declined by 15% since the beginning of the year, mainly due to external factors, and that a 1.0x PB ratio is a reliable indicator for strategic positioning. The fundamental cycle’s upward trend has been established for 2025; since the first quarter of 2026, this trend has been further reinforced, including continued efforts to reduce liability costs on the liability side, more options on the asset side, and stricter regulation of “anti-price competition” and “involution,” which promote greater market share concentration. Meanwhile, there are high expectations for the implementation of policies related to the “15th Five-Year Plan” to promote coordinated development between medical insurance and commercial insurance, achieving win-win outcomes for patients, hospitals, doctors, innovative drugs, and insurance companies. It is anticipated that the correction in the insurance sector will conclude, and major opportunities in the upcoming period should be actively seized.
