On October 6, 2026, a speaker proposed that the key to clearing local government debt lies in establishing an equity market for public assets. According to related reports, the proposal suggests securitizing heavy assets such as infrastructure through tools like REITs and RWA and restoring their liquidity; otherwise, the debt will fall into a Ponzi cycle. The report also lists three paths: the secondary real estate market needs to consolidate property rights, adopt flexible planning, and rely on AI for automated valuation; REITs can endow public assets with cash flow, and projections show that every 1% increase in REITs valuation can unlock 3-4 trillion yuan; and a real estate equity trading market that draws on the approach of the stock market. At present, the proposal remains at the stage of being put forward and discussed, and there is no qualified factual evidence of subsequent implementation progress.

Huxiu: The equity market is the only channel for clearing local government debt
The key to clearing local government debt lies in establishing an equity market for public assets, using tools such as REITs and RWA to securitize heavy assets like infrastructure and restore their liquidity; otherwise, the debt will fall into a Ponzi cycle. The article proposes three paths: the secondary real estate market needs to consolidate property rights, adopt flexible planning, and rely on AI for automated valuation; REITs can endow public assets with cash flow, and projections show that every 1% increase in REITs valuation can unlock 3-4 trillion yuan; and a real estate equity trading market modeled on the stock market approach.
