In the year 2025, when the low interest rate environment continues to squeeze the profit margins of the insurance industry, Xinhua Pension Insurance, as a professional pension insurance company, has delivered impressive data

- In 2025, Xinhua Pension Insurance reported strong solvency ratios, with core solvency reaching 993.78% and comprehensive solvency at 1023.95%, marking significant improvements from the previous quarter.  
- The increase in actual capital primarily stemmed from net assets and future policy surpluses, despite a minimal rise in minimum capital.  
- However, the surge in net cash flow deviation and the high surrender rate in internet channels indicate potential risks, suggesting the company's ongoing transformation and the need for efficient management of liquidity assets moving into 2026.

On January 5, 2026, the insurance sector surged over 6%, with NCI and CPIC reaching all-time highs. Analysts believe that the insurance sector has experienced a cyclical logic of "improved expectations for the New Year - long-term interest rates rebounding - index rally strengthening profit elasticity." It is expected that the new business growth rate of listed insurance companies in the first quarter of 2026 will be 30%, with the growth rates for bancassurance and individual insurance at 50% and 20%, respectively. Attention should be paid to signals of long-term interest rates breaking through 2.0%, as there are divergences in the market regarding the trend of ten-year government bond yields

- On January 5, 2026, the insurance sector surged over 6%, with companies like New China Life and China Pacific Insurance hitting historical highs.  
- The article highlights a positive cyclical trend driven by improved market expectations and a recovery in long-term interest rates, suggesting continued investment in Chinese insurers.  
- It anticipates an average new contract growth rate of 30% for 1Q26, fueled by increasing emphasis on bancassurance and notes potential risks related to fluctuating long-term interest rates.
