The crime of illegally issuing loans refers to the behavior that banks or other financial institutions and their staff violate the provisions of laws and administrative regulations, neglect their duties or abuse their powers to issue loans to others other than related parties, resulting in heavy losses. To constitute this crime, it must meet the standard of causing heavy losses. Compared with the crime of illegally issuing loans to related parties, this kind of crime is relatively less subjective and objective, so the amount required to constitute a crime is correspondingly higher. Individuals who illegally issue loans and cause direct economic losses of more than 500,000 yuan shall be investigated. If the actor does not directly violate the state regulations, but only violates the internal regulations of the unit where he works, and the contents of the internal regulations are not stipulated by the state, he may not be investigated for criminal responsibility. If the amount is not huge, it cannot constitute this crime. Those who have not caused heavy losses cannot be punished for this crime.
