Multiple industry insiders revealed that this revision is not a simple adjustment, but rather closely aligns with the new requirements for the financial industry put forward by economic and social development during the "15th Five-Year Plan" period. The core purpose of the revision is to better adapt to the actual needs of differentiated operation and characteristic development of the industry, continuously improve the quality and efficiency of serving the "five major tasks" of finance, and promote the high-quality development of the industry. Based on summarizing the experience of the previous trial evaluation, the SAC has further revised and improved the "Evaluation Method." The draft for comments shows that the revision maintains the stability of the overall framework and does not make major adjustments to the existing evaluation indicator system, but focuses on strengthening overall coordination and deleting some duplicate bonus indicators. The revision direction is clear and focused on goal orientation, closely aligning with the strategic needs of high-quality economic and social development during the "15th Five-Year Plan" period. It aims to promote the concentration of industry resources towards major strategies, key areas, and weak links such as technological innovation, advanced manufacturing, green and low-carbon development, and inclusive livelihood, thereby more effectively leveraging the incentive and guiding role of the evaluation.The Hang Seng Tech Index in Hong Kong fell sharply, now down 0.02%, after rising more than 1.3% earlier.
