(CCTV)Non-performing loan intermediaries have drawn a clear line between banks to prevent "endorsement".

The insiders believe that at present, when banks are preparing for a "good start" in the coming year, some banks' grass-roots institutions or account managers privately increase cooperation with loan intermediaries in order to achieve performance indicators.
