It is the main body of the national economy, and the machinery industry is the pillar of industry and manufacturing industry. The steady growth of machinery industry provides a strong support for the steady growth of industrial economy and even the healthy development of the national economy.
Recently, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the National Development and Reform Commission, and the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council jointly issued the Notice on Consolidating and Boosting the Industrial Economy (hereinafter referred to as the Notice), which provided a new policy guarantee for the steady growth of the machinery industry.
First, the "Notice" plays an important role in consolidating the upward trend of the machinery industry.
At present, the foundation for the recovery of China's machinery industry is still not stable, and the economic operation is still facing multiple pressures. In the fourth quarter, the domestic epidemic situation was repeated again, and the external environment became more complicated and uncertain, which aggravated the pressure of the stable operation of the industry. In October, the main economic indicators of the machinery industry showed signs of falling again. Although the cumulative growth rate of added value continued to rise to 4.7%, the growth rate of added value and export in that month dropped by 1.5 and 7.8 percentage points respectively compared with September, and the cumulative investment growth rate of general equipment and automobiles in major industries also dropped by 2.1 and 1.6 percentage points respectively compared with September.
During the important window of economic recovery, the three ministries and commissions jointly issued the Notice in time, and further put forward 17 policy measures, which effectively linked up with the series of policies already issued in the previous period and echoed each other. At the same time, they focused on the key areas and focused on solving the outstanding problems in the operation of industrial economy, which was conducive to the formation of policy superposition effect to accelerate the recovery of industrial economy, and played a positive role in stabilizing the market expectation of machinery industry, reversing the signs of decline, continuously pushing the industry to steadily rise to a good trend, and ensuring a successful ending this year and a good start next year.
Second, the "Notice" focuses on the key points, and makes precise measures from both sides of supply and demand to help the machinery industry continue to rise and improve.
At present, there are still many weak links in the economic operation of China's machinery industry, which restrict the sustained and stable recovery of the industry. From the demand side, the growth momentum of industry investment is weak, the recovery of consumption is weak, and the uncertainty of export growth increases; From the supply side, there are still some blocking points in the key links of the supply chain of the industrial chain, and the new kinetic energy of growth has not yet formed a widespread driving effect.
The "Notice" focuses on these weak links, makes precise policies from both sides of supply and demand, and promotes the cracking of industry development constraints.
First, the Notice focuses on the problem of weak investment growth, and puts forward measures such as "making good use of all kinds of policy tools", "supporting investment in technical transformation equipment renewal" and "implementing major technical equipment innovation and development projects" to accelerate the construction of major projects to form physical workload. This will help to further expand investment, give full play to the role of effective investment in promoting the upgrading and development of machinery industry, improve and strengthen advantageous industries such as construction machinery and electric equipment, and promote the innovative development of agricultural machinery, machine tools and medical equipment.
Secondly, on the basis of the original policy, the Notice made another effort, proposing measures such as continuing to expand the consumption of bulk commodities such as automobiles, which will further promote the release of automobile consumption potential in China.
Third, the Notice focuses on the problem of export weakness, and puts forward policies and measures to stabilize foreign trade from the aspects of credit insurance, financial support, service guarantee, port transportation, cross-border warehousing, etc., which will effectively promote the continued steady growth of foreign trade export of machinery industry.
Fourthly, from the perspectives of coping with the impact of epidemic situation, solving the problem of blocking points and sticking points, strengthening supply reserves and ensuring the security of energy supply, the Notice focuses on improving the resilience and security level of the supply chain of the industrial chain. These measures are advanced and deployed in advance, which will effectively promote the mechanical industry to continuously improve the toughness and safety level of the industrial chain supply chain.
Fifth, the Notice focuses on new technologies and fields such as advanced manufacturing, high-end equipment, intelligent manufacturing, and industrial Internet, and puts forward a series of policy measures to accelerate the cultivation and development of new kinetic energy. With the continuous implementation of these measures, a series of major and cutting-edge technologies will be continuously integrated and infiltrated into various fields, which will surely accelerate the upgrading and transformation of traditional industries, promote the cross-industry integration and development of the machinery industry, and constantly give birth to new industries, new formats and new models, thus becoming a new engine for the high-quality development of the industry.
Three, conscientiously implement the "Notice" policy measures, and effectively consolidate the industry rebound to a good trend.
China Machinery Industry Federation will conscientiously implement the 17 policy measures put forward in the Notice, make steady growth the primary task and top priority of industry work in the fourth quarter of this year and next year, combine with the guiding opinions on promoting the implementation of the 14th Five-Year Plan of machinery industry, upgrading the industrial base of machinery industry and modernizing the industrial chain, earnestly do a good job in publicizing and implementing various policy measures in the field of machinery industry, and achieve results, consolidate the upward trend of machinery industry, and give full play to the "ballast stone" role of machinery industry in stabilizing industrial economy.
