[Central News Agency] After the Henan village bank scandal broke out in April last year, the official payment of principal to depositors came to an end.

Lu media reported that there are still more than 1,000 offline large depositors who have not been paid in advance, involving a deposit amount of about 13 billion yuan (about NT$58.3 billion).

Caixin.com reported on the 10th that at the end of August 2022, the Henan Banking and Insurance Regulatory Bureau and the Henan Province Local Financial Supervision Bureau issued the No. 7 announcement, stating that depositors of four rural banks in Henan would be advanced.

The object of advance payment is the off-book business customers with a combined amount of 400,000 yuan to 500,000 yuan (inclusive) of a single institution, and the advance payment is continued for those below 400,000 yuan (inclusive).

If it is more than 500,000 yuan, it will be paid in advance according to 500,000 yuan, and the "rights and interests" of the unpaid part exceeding 500,000 yuan will be handled according to the law according to the recovery of the assets involved in the case.

"Advance work has come to an end."

After 4 months, on January 9 this year, the relevant depositors finally received a text message to advance the principal, indicating that they could begin to process withdrawals.

However, the report pointed out that more than 1,000 offline first-class card customers have not been paid in advance. They are large depositors with a total deposit amount of about 13 billion yuan. Among them, Zhejiang funds account for the largest proportion, about 10 billion yuan. There are many funds from well-known small and medium-sized entrepreneurs. .

A Class I card customer refers to a full-featured account opened at the bank's offline counter, which can handle all bank business, and the scope of use and the amount of use are not limited.

Because the latest batch of advanced depositors are mainly third-party platform customers, and the end of the new year is approaching, this kind of account card customers are suffering. "We are left with bank card depositors who open accounts offline."

On April 18, 2022, 4 rural banks in Henan (Yuzhou Xinminsheng Rural Bank, Shangcai Huimin Rural Bank, Zhecheng Huanghuai Rural Bank, Kaifeng New Oriental Rural Bank), and 2 rural banks in Anhui (Guzhen Xinhuaihe Rural Bank) Bank and Xinhuaihe Village Bank in Yixian County) successively shut down their online systems without warning, causing a large number of customers to be unable to withdraw money.

In addition to Kaifeng New Oriental Rural Bank, the major shareholders of the other five rural banks are Xuchang Rural Commercial Bank in Henan Province, which involves the corruption of Xuchang Rural Commercial Bank's executives and internal and external collusion.

According to preliminary official investigations, the relevant banks cooperated with Henan New Fortune Group Investment Holding Co., Ltd., which is suspected of serious illegal and criminal activities such as illegally absorbing public deposits.
