UBS released a research report, stating that China will issue approximately 500 billion yuan of special government bonds to supplement the capital of ICBC, ABC, and large insurance companies. The capital injection plan is expected to be announced as early as the first quarter, which may lead to bank dividend distributions being advanced to late April and early May. UBS expects that the core Tier 1 capital adequacy ratio of ICBC and ABC will improve, but after the capital injection, ABC's core Tier 1 capital adequacy ratio will still be below 12%. The capital injection will dilute the earnings per share and dividends per share of the two banks by approximately 4% and 8%, respectively
