  • China and Its “Long March” Toward a Modern Banking System
    China and Its “Long March” Toward a Modern Banking System Ting Zhong (on Prof. Joseph Norton’s behalf) I. Introduction China, the ancient oriental empire, opened its door to the outside world in the first half of the nineteenth century. Modern banking was introduced at that time to satisfy the financial needs of increasing trade business between China and the western world. So till now China has had long experience with the banking system. But influenced by several severe social transitions in the past two centuries, China’s modern banking system experienced different development directions and is now still at a premature stage. For the recent 25 years, recognizing the need to merge into the global system and to sustain its domestic development, China has conducted comprehensive reforms in its banking sector to adopt a modern banking system consistent with evolving and heightening international prudential, operational, and anti-money laundering and anti-terrorism financing standards, along with the liberalization and openness aims engendered by the move toward a robust “socialist market economy” on a sustainable basis and the embrace of the WTO requirements. The reforms already conducted in the banking sector are extensive in scope and have received impressive achievements. But China still faces numerous challenges in accomplishing its goal. Besides, as an emerging economic power with the inevitable evolution of the Chinese Yuan into a major international currency but at the same time still being a developing country facing a lot of disparities and development needs, China encounters a more complex situation to balance the conflicting functions of its banking sector when designing the reform schemes.

  • China's Banking Sector and the Attractiveness of Dim Sum Bond
    China's banking sector and the attractiveness of Dim Sum Bond Antonello Avino in collaboration with Fjorda Vacchetti and Ludovico Gerli March 2016 Abstract China's banking system has tremendously grown in recent years. `The Big Four' keep dominating the Chinese banking system as well as they are playing an important role all over the world, mentioning in the first four positions of the largest banks ranking. In spite of its expansion, the banking sector is still suffering from serious structural and administrative issues. In order to deeply figure them out, we are going to perform a meticulous analysis of the banking sector, specifying what is the financial system adopted by China, what kinds of banks operate along with the first four banks and how the regulatory system has changed over time. Also, we are going to discuss the `parallel' banking, well-known as `shadow banking', which slowed down the growth of the banking system. Even though financial consequences of the global crisis on china have been extremely smalls, it still possible to focus our attention on changes and development of Chinese structure. This country suffered few losses in the short run whereas many projects (like the stimulus plan on 2008), reorganizations and reforms were planned in order to avoid contrary effects in the long run, both for real and financial economy. Finally, we will give a brief overview of the Dim Sum bond market aimed to internationalize the renminbi currency outside Mainland China and to lower the cost of capital. I Market-oriented or bank-oriented? Economic history and empirical economic analysis showed that the corporate finance was influenced by two different models of government in the financial market: the so-called market-oriented system, and the bank-oriented system or oriented intermediation.

  • Wealth Management Products and Issuing Banks' Risk in China
    In the Shadow of Banks: Wealth Management Products and Issuing Banks’ Risk in China* Viral V. Acharya Jun “QJ” Qian Zhishu Yang New York University, and Shanghai Adv. Inst. of Finance School of Economics and Mgmt. Reserve Bank of India Shanghai Jiao Tong University Tsinghua University [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] This Draft: February 10, 2017 Abstract To support China’s massive stimulus plan in response to the global financial crisis in 2008, large state-owned banks pumped huge volume of new loans into the economy and also grew more aggressive in the deposit markets. The extent of supporting the plan was different across the ‘Big Four’ banks, creating a plausibly exogenous shock in the local deposit market to small and medium-sized banks (SMBs) facing differential competition from the Big Four banks. We find that SMBs significantly increased shadow banking activities after 2008, most notably by issuing wealth management products (WMPs). The scale of issuance is greater for banks that are more constrained by on-balance sheet lending and face greater competition in the deposit market from local branches of the most rapidly expanding big bank. The WMPs impose a substantial rollover risk for issuers when they mature, as reflected by the yields on new products, the issuers’ behavior in the inter-bank market, and the adverse effect on stock prices following a credit crunch. Overall, the swift rise of shadow banking in China seems to be triggered by the stimulus plan and has contributed to the greater fragility of the banking system.
