In recent years, as interest rates on loans have gradually declined, corporate financing costs have continued to decline. Interest rates on loans linked to A-share listed companies, however, are clearly polarized. The Securities Times reporter combed through and found that, on the one hand, the actual controllers and controlling shareholders of many listed companies provided preferential loans without interest or far below the interest rate level of bank loans during the same period; on the other hand, some listed companies with operating pressure and limited external financing channels had interest rates significantly higher than bank credit interest rates. At the same time, some enterprises with normal financing capacity continue to borrow from related parties at interest rates higher than their own financing costs, which has also drawn market attention to the fairness of related transactions.
