The United States-based ratings agency Moody's latestxa0cut on the outlook for major Chinese tech companiesxa0is "unfair and inappropriate", and this move neglects the immense growth potential of China's digital economy and platform enterprises, experts said on Saturday.
专家周六表示，总部位于美国的评级机构穆迪最近对中国主要科技公司的前景发表的评论是“不公平和不恰当的”，此举忽视了中国数字经济和平台企业的巨大增长潜力。
They said the downgrade of ratings may raise concerns over thexa0professionalism of Moody's, and shows the ratings agency lacks understanding of China's internet and tech sector.
他们表示，评级下调可能会引发人们对穆迪的xa0专业主义的担忧，并表明该评级机构对中国互联网和科技行业缺乏了解。
Their comments came as Moody's has adjusted the outlook for 18 Chinese companies, including Alibaba Group Holding Ltd and Tencent Holdings Ltd, from stable to negative after it lowered China's credit ratings and outlook onxa0eight State-owned banks.
他们发表上述言论之际，穆迪下调了中国对八家国有银行的信用评级和展望，将包括阿里巴巴集团控股有限公司和腾讯控股有限公司在内的18家中国公司的前景从稳定调整为负面。
Ouyang Rihui, assistant dean of the China Center for Internet Economy Research at the Central University of Finance and Economics,xa0said the Chinese authorities have shown supportive attitudes toward digital economy and platform economy, while Moody's understanding about China's latest policy development is "inadequate".
中央财经大学中国互联网经济研究中心副院长欧阳日辉表示，中国当局对数字经济和平台经济表现出支持态度，而穆迪对中国最新政策发展的理解“不足”。
Zhang Xiaorong, head of the research institute of Shenzhen, Guangdong province-based manufacturing company Deep Innovation, said the Moody's outlook downgrade exaggeratesxa0the intensified competition among Chinese tech companies and possible challenges they might face in the future, as well as overlooks the huge potential and resilience of China's economy.
总部位于广东省深圳市的制造业公司Deep Innovation的研究所所长张晓荣表示，穆迪的前景下调夸大了中国科技公司之间日益激烈的竞争及其未来可能面临的挑战，并忽视了中国经济的巨大潜力和韧性。
The agency failed to take into consideration the country's recent policy support to tech and internet companies, so Moody's rating results are being doubted and have some limitations, and the overall impact on Chinese internet companies is limited, experts added.
专家补充道，该机构没有考虑到中国最近对科技和互联网公司的政策支持，因此穆迪的评级结果受到质疑，并有一些局限性，对中国互联网公司的总体影响有限。
S&P Global Ratings and Fitch Ratings, rival agencies of Moody's, both confirmed on Wednesday that there have been no changes in their ratings on China.
穆迪的竞争对手标普全球评级和惠誉评级周三均证实，其对中国的评级没有变化。
The value of China's contracted property sales will decline in 2022 given the country's tight credit environment, but the decline is seen gradually narrowing during the rest of the year, Moody's Investors Service said.
穆迪投资者服务公司表示，鉴于中国信贷环境紧张，2022年中国的合同房地产销售价值将下降，但在今年剩余时间内，下降幅度将逐渐缩小。
"The affirmation of Tencent's A1 rating reflects its strong financial profile, large customer base and a track record of monetizing value-added services offered on its online and mobile platforms, which have helped sustain free cash flow generation," said Lina Choi, a Moody's senior vice-president and its lead analyst for Tencent.
穆迪高级副总裁兼腾讯主分析师Lina Choi表示：“对腾讯A1评级的确认，反映出该公司强大的财务状况、庞大的用户基础，以及通过其在线和移动平台上提供的增值服务实现变现的良好记录，这些都有助于维持自由现金流的生成。”
Moody's cautioned downward rating pressure could emerge if Tencent experiences a sustained erosion in its active user base that leads to lower cash flow, engages in aggressive acquisitions that strain its balance-sheet liquidity or raises its overall risk profile, adopts an aggressive dividend policy that weakens its balance-sheet liquidity or demonstrates a weaker credit profile.
穆迪警告称，如果腾讯遭遇活跃用户基础持续萎缩，导致现金流降低；或进行激进的收购活动，从而给其资产负债表流动性带来压力，或提高其整体风险状况；或采取激进的股息政策削弱其资产负债表流动性；或是展现出较弱的信用状况，都可能形成下调评级的压力。换句话说，这些因素若发生，可能会对腾讯的信用评级产生负面影响，促使穆迪考虑下调其评级。
Furthermore, the strengthened regulatory oversight in the Chinese mainland, which could affect the company's operations or business model, would also affect the rating, Moody's said.
此外,穆迪表示,中国内地加强监管监督可能会影响该公司的运营或商业模式,这也会影响评级。
But Moody's said Tencent also has a track record of working with regulators, resolving differences and making changes without negatively affecting its profile.
但穆迪表示，腾讯也有与监管机构合作、解决分歧并做出改变而不负面影响其形象的记录。这意味着尽管腾讯可能会面临一些监管上的挑战，但它有能力和经验来处理这些问题，以保持其业务和财务状况的稳定。这反映了腾讯在应对监管环境变化时的灵活性和适应性。然而，这也表明，尽管存在这些能力，评级机构仍然关注监管风险对腾讯信用状况的潜在影响。总的来说，这句话强调了腾讯过去在处理与监管机构的关系方面的成功，以及这种能力对于维持公司长期稳定性和信用质量的重要性。同时，它也提醒我们，即使有这些优势，监管环境的变化仍可能带来不确定性。
Chinese mobile-phone component makers with large revenue scale and long operating track records are well-positioned to capture growth and orders from leading mobile-phone makers in the coming three years, according to the latest report from Moody's Investors Service.
And rating agencies including Moody's, Standard & Poor's and Fitch have affirmed dollar debt ratings of A3, A- and A-, respectively.
After reviewing Boeing's balance sheet, S&P Global, Moody's Investors Service and Fitch downgraded Boeing's bond ratings by one notch.
"It precedes broader policy guidance for banks to support private enterprises, in particular small and micro ones, but it remains to be seen how such supporting instruments will work, especially in a slowing economic environment," said George Xu, an analyst with Moody's.
That news came after ratings agency Moody's had, in early December, already downgraded House of Fraser's credit rating due to "weak results in the first three quarters of its fiscal year".

Moody's lead retail analyst Charlie O'Shea says the closings will let Toys R Us "focus all of its operating efforts on only its best locations.
The move followed the steps of the other two major credit ratings agencies Standard & Poor's and Moody's Investors Service, which downgraded the Chinese developer last September to junk grade.
The new streaming services will likely "accelerate the erosion" of the company's television networks, especially if other major cable firms make similar moves, Moody's analyst Neil Begley stressed.
Sri Lanka's deal with China to develop the Hambantota Port in southern Sri Lanka will boost Sri Lanka's foreign-exchange reserves and help bolster investors confidence, rating agency Moody's said Monday.
Moody's said in its latest report that earnings from the Hambantota Port stake sale will feed into the Sri Lankan central bank's foreign-exchange reserves, which will help bolster investors confidence and encourage future portfolio inflows.
The buildup of associated infrastructure surrounding the port also can help attract greater private-sector investments, and this, together with other ongoing development projects, will provide a stable source of financing for Sri Lanka and support its economic growth, according to Moody's.
Global rating agencies, including Moody's and Fitch, assigned the notes high ratings.
Ratings: Questions raised in past tooThe cutting of China's credit outlook by rating agency Moody's is unwarranted and flawed, as the move overlooks the solid growth potential of the world's second-largest economy and exaggerates the financial risks facing it, officials and experts said on Tuesday.
Stating that it is "disappointed with" the cut, the Ministry of Finance said in a statement on Tuesday that "concerns of Moody's about the prospects of China's economic growth and fiscal sustainability are unwarranted".
The statement came after Moody's affirmed China's A1 long-term local and foreign-currency issuer ratings on Tuesday but changed its outlook on China's government credit ratings to negative from stable, citing lower medium-term economic growth and ongoing downsizing of the property sector.
Moody's said in a report that authorities would provide support to financially stressed local governments and State-owned enterprises, posing broad risks to China's fiscal, economic and institutional strength.
"It isn't the first time that Moody's rating results are being doubted.
US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen recently rebutted Moody's downgrade of the United States' credit outlook.
Moody's last cut China's local and foreign-currency issuer ratings in 2017, from Aa3 to A1.
Li Ruoyu, a researcher at the State Information Center, said Moody's outlook downgrade is unconvincing as it underestimates China's economic growth in both the short and medium term.
China's GDP is forecast by Moody's to grow by 4 percent next year, lower than the IMF's forecast of 4.6 percent.
"Moody's forecast is obviously lower than China's potential growth rate," Li said.
While Moody's predicts China's economy will expand 4 percent in 2025 and 3.8 percent on average from 2026 to 2030, Li said that estimates from various other institutions show that China's potential economic growth rate would reach between 4 percent and 5 percent from 2025 to 2030.
The second quarter should mark the beginning of a rebound in the Asia-Pacific region's economy, led by the optimization of COVID-19 mitigation policies in China, said Moody's Analytics in a latest commentary.
China's official manufacturing and nonmanufacturing PMI indexes and their components have all rebounded above the 50 neutral mark, indicating rising expectations, said Moody's Analytics, a subsidiary of Moody's Corp, in a commentary on Monday.
The strongest was for investment spending, although it is still dominated by the 10.5 percent year-over-year growth among State-owned enterprises – indicative of the effect of the government's fiscal stimulus to kick-start the economy this year, Moody's Analytics said.
Manufacturing for exports is the wild card in China's outlook and depends upon the stability of demand from North America and Europe, Moody's Analytics said.
"The setting of the country's GDP growth target was a balancing act between what it might desire and what it can likely achieve," said Moody's Analytics in a commentary earlier this week.
A robust labor market is intended to complement higher household income in driving demand, said Moody's Analytics, a subsidiary of Moody's Corp.
Stability measures include the broadening of housing demand via support to younger buyers and measures to strengthen property developer balance sheets in the hope of preventing disorderly expansion by developers and aiding the delivery of presold properties," said Moody's Analytics.
Moody's Investors Service recently lifted its forecast for China's real GDP growth to 5 percent for both 2023 and 2024, up from its previous projection of 4 percent for both years.
Moody's Investors Service recently shifted its forecast for China's real GDP growth to 5 percent for both 2023 and 2024, up from its previous projection of 4 percent, to incorporate a post-reopening rebound in domestic demand, especially for services.
The Chinese government's decision to relax COVID-19 restrictions will naturally boost the country's economic activity from a 3 percent rise in 2022, said Moody's in the latest update of its global macro outlook 2023-24.
Further monetary policy easing will depend on the strength and durability of the rebound, said Moody's.
Matt Moody, the British consul general in Guangzhou, said the dialogue offered an important opportunity for member companies of the China-Britain Business Council to understand the trade and economic development policies of Guangzhou, known as a millennium commercial capital.
"The event also allows companies to discuss practical issues regarding the business environment in Guangzhou directly with relevant departments of the municipal government, and I hope this kind of discussion helps British companies grow their operations in Guangzhou, contributing to economic development in both the UK and China," Moody said.
The coalition cited a recent Moody's report, which showed that the tariffs "hit American businesses and consumers hardest," with China absorbing only 7.6 percent of the tariffs "while the rest of the tab was picked up by Americans.
Although Chinese banks have accelerated the issuance of property development loans and home mortgage loans since October under the guidance of the People's Bank of China, the central bank, and the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, the growth of these two types of loans is actually an offset against previous declines in the growth of such loans earlier this year, Gong said at Moody's & CCXI 2022 Credit Outlook Conference on Thursday.
"Any easing measures are just temporary measures, which are taken to prevent rapid declines in property prices and floor space of commercialized buildings sold," said Cedric Lai, vice-president and senior analyst at the corporate finance group of Moody's Investors Service.
Moody's estimates financing channels for property developers will remain tight in 2022.
At this time, the direct exposure of Chinese financial institutions to property developers is limited, said Yulia Wan, vice-president and senior analyst at the financial institutions group of Moody's.
Moody's outlook on China's banking sector remains stable next year.
Although the Chinese authorities have taken measures recently to tame commodity prices, there are signs profit margins of manufacturing enterprises, especially smaller ones, are getting squeezed, said Heron Lim, an analyst with Moody's Analytics.
If the Fed raises its key interest rates some time in the future, it would pull capital back to the US and the US dollar will strengthen, said Christina Zhu, economist at Moody's Analytics.
Analysts from the Moody's Investors Service expect new local government bond issuances to pick up from May with the total amount set to exceed last year's levels.
The government is likely to support local SOEs where necessary, but it will become increasingly selective, said the Moody's analysts.
"The US trade deficit with China has increased, and US companies are bearing the brunt of elevated tariffs on Chinese goods, Tu said, citing a recent report by rating agency Moody's Investors Service.
A report published last month by global rating agency Moody's showed that China, along with wealthier countries, took the lead in spending on green recovery in the Asia-Pacific region.
Last month, a forecast by Moody's Analytics predicted that last year, when adjusted for inflation, China's economy likely accounted for 16.8 percent of the global total.
And a better connected supply chain in the Asia-Pacific region has boosted exports, according to Steve Cochrane, chief Asia-Pacific economist at Moody's Analytics.
Ever since then, the shadow banking sector has steadily declined relative to the formal banking system, Moody's Investors Service said.
China's GDP growth is on track to reach pre-pandemic levels this year thanks to the country's timely and efficient epidemic control measures, according to Madhavi Bokil, Moody's vice-president and senior credit officer.
"That China was able to grow as fast as it did given the weakness all across the rest of the global economy right now, is quite remarkable," CNBC quoted Steve Cochrane, chief APAC economist at Moody's Analytics, as saying.
Other rating agencies have also revised up their forecast on China's GDP growth this year, to 1.9 percent for Moody's and 2.7 percent for Fitch.
Moody's analysts also said that China's competitive advantage in lithium-ion battery cell production gives its carmakers an edge in terms of EV production costs.
"The government's recent actions to step up support for developers' funding could improve the companies' financial flexibility and partly temper their near-term refinancing pressures," said Kelly Chen, a Moody's vice president and senior analyst.
Infrastructure REITs allow companies to monetize their infrastructure assets and apply the sale proceeds to finance future projects or reduce debts, according to a report from Moody's Investors Service.

根据信用评级机构穆迪的一份报告，该国的房地产销售在10月份保持了强劲增长，且销售增长率在此期间继续加速。
"Inventory levels should stay healthy in the next 6 to 12 months given continuing sales growth and developers' controlled pace of launching new saleable resources," said Cedric Lai, vice-president and senior analyst with Moody's.
鉴于持续的销售增长和开发商对推出新可销售资源的步伐控制，未来6至12个月的库存水平应保持健康，"穆迪副总裁兼高级分析师Cedric Lai表示。

According to a study from Moody's Investors Service, as of the end of June 2019, the share of China's health insurance premiums expanded to 17.8 percent of the total insurance premiums, up from 9.6 percent at the end of 2015.
据穆迪投资者服务公司的一项研究显示，截至2019年6月底，中国健康保险保费在国内总保费中的占比已提升至17.8%，而在2015年底时该比例为9.6%。

不过，经济的疲软增长和新冠病毒疫情造成的其他中断正在限制收入和利润增长前景，"全球信用评级机构穆迪投资者服务公司(Moody's Investors Service)的分析师李莉(Lillian Li)说。
According to international ratings agency Moody's, about $51.3 billion worth of domestic bonds and $27.6 billion worth of foreign bonds will become due or be on sale in the 12 months since Feb 1, which means developers will have a high demand for refinancing.
Chinese developers rated by Moody's will have $51.2 billion of onshore bonds maturing or subject to put options in the 12 months from March, accounting for 60 percent of total onshore and offshore bonds maturing or becoming puttable over the period, according to the global credit ratings agency.
Yet Moody's regards default risks of the sector controllable.
However, we expect most rated developers will have sufficient liquidity buffer against the disruption in sales," said a Moody's report.
"China's policy focus continues to shift between three－at times competing－policy objectives of ensuring sustainable growth, maintaining financial stability and implementing reforms to rebalance the economy, with the current focus primarily on growth and stability in the face of slowing GDP growth," said Michael Taylor, managing director of the Asia-Pacific region at global credit ratings agency Moody's.
The ongoing liberalization of China's power sector will raise business and financial risk for coal-fired power generation companies, but most can withstand the resultant market competition and potential industry consolidation, according to a report by credit rating agency Moody's provided to Xinhua.
"The immediate impact on most coal-fired power generation companies will be manageable, as the new tariff mechanism, if implemented as planned, will remove delays in passing through tariff adjustments and thus reduce margin volatility," says Ivy Poon, Moody's vice president and senior analyst.
While the share of market-based sales has been rising over the past three years, tariffs under the mechanism are lower than the current regulated tariffs, reducing profit margins, according to Moody's.
Among the rated coal-fired companies, Moody's says those with strong market positions, efficient generation fleets and large business scales will be better placed to manage the increase in competition as China's power market opens up.
Moody's Corp announced in late October that it would acquire "a minority stake" in SynTao Green Finance, a leading provider of ESG data and analytics based in and serving China.
The deal was completed recently, Shi Hao, managing director and country manager for Moody's Investors Service in China, told China Daily in an exclusive interview.
Moody's did not take control of the Chinese company through an acquisition, nor did it change its operational and governance structure.
"The investment is in line with Moody's strategy, as the ESG-related business is one of the key areas that Moody's is developing globally.
"Combining with Moody's global strengths and accumulated experience, the deal will help to build a foundation in the market," said Shi.
China's pharmaceutical market will be an increasingly important source of growth for foreign drug companies through 2023, according to a report from credit rating agency Moody's.
Moody's expects companies with a significant presence in China to benefit the most due to their market experience and established sales channels.
The credit metrics of a majority of Chinese property developers will continue to improve over the next 12-18 months, according to a report from global ratings agency Moody's.
Of 62 developers rated by Moody's, 40 saw their credit metrics improve slightly in 2018, and the trend will continue in the coming months, bolstered by disciplined spending on land, the report said.
"Many large and mid-size developers have lowered their sales growth targets for 2019, which will reduce their need to make debt-funded land purchases," said Cedric Lai, a Moody's vice president and senior analyst.
Regional stress is expected to constrain the earnings of Asian refining and marketing companies in the next 12 months, bringing refiners to increase reliance on short-term financing facilities, according to Moody's Investors Service.
"Asian refiners will likely see their earnings fall in 2019, as higher regional crude prices drive up feedstock cost, and retail fuel price regulation in some countries pressures marketing profits," says Rachel Chua, a Moody's assistant vice-president and analyst.
The falling EBITDA contrasts with Moody's positive outlook for the global R&M sector, with the global outlook reflecting projected EBITDA growth, helped by lower crude prices and strong distillate spreads in North America.
