In 2025, the country's fiscal revenue and expenditure showed an overall stable and structural optimization trend, and 27 provinces achieved positive growth in general public budget revenue. The Securities Times reporter combed through the 2026 budget reports issued by various provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the Central Government and found that the major economic provinces in the east continued to play a supporting role in fiscal support in the past year, and fiscal revenue in the western and northeastern regions picked up markedly. Although budget reports from many regions indicate that the 2026 fiscal balance pressure still exists, all regions generally expect fiscal revenue to maintain steady growth, and most provinces have set the 2026 general public budget revenue growth target in the 2% to 3% range. In the new year, local financial resources will be further skewed towards key areas such as scientific and technological innovation, people's livelihood security, and industrial upgrading.
