Yixin Issues Apology: May Be Insolvent

On October 12, Yixin Group published an "Apology Letter to Clients of Fixed-Income-Like Products" on its subsidiaries Ruicheng and Yirenyouxuan App. Yixin Group stated that due to the contraction of its inclusive finance and wealth management business scale and poor earnings, it has decided to completely stop the redemption of fixed-income-like products by May 22, 2026, and will strive to fairly compensate all investors through orderly exit. However, due to significant losses in multiple business areas, coupled with low asset values in market-based disposals and a lack of effective funding sources, the fixed-income-like products have effectively defaulted, for which the company sincerely apologizes to its clients. The letter indicated that after halting the redemption of fixed-income-like products, Yixin Group systematically reviewed the status of various businesses and promptly commissioned third-party institutions to conduct asset verification and financial due diligence. Preliminary findings suggest that Yixin Group may be insolvent, with a significant debt gap. The underlying assets corresponding to the unpaid fixed-income-like products are of poor quality, and efforts to seek market-based overall disposal have been unsuccessful. Legal due diligence institutions stated that they could not independently investigate the compliance of fixed-income-like products based on the transaction channels and models provided by the group. Yixin Group stated that it will further clarify its asset and liability situation, continue to stabilize its lending and other licensed businesses, make every effort to accelerate the recovery of non-performing loans, expedite the disposal and monetization of valuable assets, and communicate sincerely with clients of fixed-income-like products to resolve risks in accordance with laws and regulations, aiming for fair compensation for investors.

  • Korean Central Bank Governor: Further Appreciation of Won Beneficial for Economy, Will Maintain Restrictive Policy

    On October 13, Bank of Korea Governor Rhee Chang-yong stated that further appreciation of the won would be beneficial, noting that since the central bank shifted to tightening monetary policy, the significant appreciation of the won has enhanced household purchasing power. During a dialogue with Krishna, Director of the IMF Asia and Pacific Department, at the IMF and World Bank annual meetings in Bangkok on Tuesday, he mentioned that the Bank of Korea will maintain a restrictive monetary policy stance until it is confident that inflation can return to target levels in a timely manner.

Currently, inflation, exchange rates, and financial stability factors all point in the same policy direction, making the policy trade-offs faced by the Bank of Korea easier than usual.
