The list of the second batch of projects for the issuance of additional treasury bonds has been issued, involving more than 9,600 projects for the issuance of additional treasury bonds, and more than 560 billion yuan of treasury bonds are planned to be arranged. Fan Ruoying, a researcher at the Bank of China Research Institute, said that in the near future, the regulatory authorities have accelerated the issuance of the list of additional treasury bond projects and the allocation of funds, which is conducive to promoting the formation of physical workload as soon as possible, and it is expected that next year will be the main year for the formation of physical workload, and the growth rate of infrastructure investment is expected to increase.

2. The Central Economic Work Conference pointed out that it is necessary to expand high-level opening up and build the brand of "Invest in China"
According to the Securities Times, the Central Economic Work Conference pointed out that it is necessary to expand high-level opening up and build the "Invest in China" brand. As one of the strongest engines of global growth, China's economy continues to grow, with GDP growing by 5.2% year-on-year in the first three quarters of this year. Against the backdrop of the overall slowdown in world economic growth, China remains a strong attraction to global investors, and "investing in China" is still the mainstream trend.
3. Economic Daily: Create a safe and transparent lending environment
The access of personal online loan information to the credit information system is an important step in improving the credit information system covering the whole society in China, which has a positive effect on preventing financial risks and promoting the healthy development of the financial industry. In this way, financial institutions can have a more comprehensive grasp of the credit status of borrowers and accurately assess their credit risks. With the full access of personal online loan information to the credit system, the bad debts and financial risks of online loans will be effectively reduced, and the operating costs of online loan platforms will also be reduced. Online lending rates, which have previously been pushed up due to higher financial risks, are expected to be lowered, reducing the cost of borrowing for consumers. It can be seen that the access of personal online loan information to the credit information system is both a constraint and a protection, so there is no need to misunderstand and panic.
