| Commercial banks are the mainstay of our country’s financial industry and the backbone of our national economic activity.In the early days,the main business of commercial banks was deposits and loans.They absorbed deposits at a lower interest rate and issued loans at a higher interest rate,taking the margin between deposit and loan rates as their profit growth point.However,with the increasingly fierce competition among commercial banks,the increasing space of interest income of commercial banks is gradually shrinking,which makes commercial banks have to change the profit growth point from interest income to non-interest income.At present,the non-interest income of commercial banks mainly includes processing business income,transaction business income and consulting business income.Among the three,commercial banks focus on the income of processing business,such as checking business,fund transfer business,letter of credit collection business,etc.We can say that our commercial banks have a single non-interest income channel.How to improve the profitability of commercial banks?
