In October, local governments issued bonds intensively. According to the data of China Bond Information Network, as of October 27, a total of 22 provinces will issue a total of about 943.8 billion yuan of special refinancing bonds. Luo Zhiheng, chief economist of Yuekai Securities, said that the fast issuance speed and large scale insurance have become a highlight of this round of special bond issuance. Special debts can be used to replace implicit debts, and will be used to resolve implicit debts in conjunction with other methods such as debt extensions. The special bonds mainly use the general debt balance limit, and the issuance scale of special bond in the fourth quarter is expected to be about 1 trillion yuan, mainly concentrated in high-risk provinces.
