China has a very strict and implemented the country’s zero-Covid policy, from the recent month, from one city to another, under the lockdowns which deteriorating financial health for the masses. If you follow the news, you will notice that for small and bad banks in some of the provinces, some deposit customers can not access their money. As some banks make use of 3rd party platforms and practice shadow banking. Where most of the fund is channeled into property and real estate and local government infrastructure projects, leading to a rapid debt, and making serious credit risks by the lender. As more and more public is in fear following various news and reports of financial distress at the banks. When banks start to make customers who deposit their money become no accessible, and no action has been taken at a fast speed, or the bank has been under government authority investigation, the spillover effects may cover all the banks regardless of size.
As massive amounts of money have been lent over to the property and developer market, and the crash of the current market, if the banks can not recover their debt, the impact can be imagined next. Property loans account for nearly 30% of outstanding loans with China’s financial institutions on average.
