Guangdong’s consumption expansion plan says the province will tap central budget investment and ultra‑long special sovereign bonds to fund consumption infrastructure and trade‑in schemes, and deploy central pilot funds for internationalized consumption and new consumption models to expand service consumption. It urges commercial banks to use structural monetary‑policy tools — re‑lending for service consumption and elderly care, re‑lending for agriculture and small firms, and rediscounting — to increase credit to service consumption and elderly‑care sectors. The plan directs fiscal‑financial special funds to implement interest subsidies for personal consumer loans, service‑sector operating loans, start‑up guarantee loans and SME loans; encourage financial institutions to broaden consumer‑finance products, including tailored financing for AI‑product purchases; asks insurers to offer products for auto, appliance and home purchases; and promotes digital RMB payment integration into consumption scenarios.
