CONCLUSIONS AND ISSUES GOING FORWARD: CREATING THE INCENTIVES AND INFRASTRUCTURE FOR BANKS TO OPERATE EFFICIENTLY""; ""- APPENDIX""Substantial effort has been devoted to reforming China's banking system in recent years. The authorities recapitalized three large state-owned banks, introduced new governance structures, and brought in foreign strategic investors. However, it remains unclear the extent to which currently reported data reflect the true credit risk in loan portfolios and whether lending decisions have started to be taken on a commercial basis. We examine lending growth, credit pricing, and regional patterns in lending from 1997 through 2004 to look for evidence of changing behavior of the large state-owned commercial banks (SCBs). We find that the SCBs have slowed down credit expansion, but that the pricing of credit risk remains undifferentiated and banks do not appear to take enterprise profitability into account when making lending decisions. Controlling for several factors, we find that large SCBs have continued to lose market share to other financial institutions in provinces with more profitable enterprises. The full impact of the most recent reforms will become clear only in several years, however, and these issues should be revisited in future research.IMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;No. 2006/071Banks and bankingGovernment ownershipChinaBanks and bankingState supervisionChinaBank loansChinaCreditManagementChinaCorporate governanceChinaBanks and BankingimfIndustries: Financial ServicesimfBanksimfDepository InstitutionsimfMicro Finance InstitutionsimfMortgagesimfBankingimfFinanceimfCommercial banksimfNonperforming loansimfLoansimfState-owned banksimfBanks and bankingimfChina, People's Republic ofimfBanks and bankingGovernment ownershipBanks and bankingState supervisionBank loansCreditManagementCorporate governanceBanks and BankingIndustries: Financial ServicesBanksDepository InstitutionsMicro Finance InstitutionsMortgagesBankingFinanceCommercial banksNonperforming loansLoansState-owned banksBanks and bankingPodpiera Richard1546574International Monetary Fund.Monetary and Financial Systems Dept.DcWaIMFBOOK9910788413603321Progress in China’s Banking Sector Reform3802272UNINA02509oam 2200589zu 450 991097112440332120251116235112.00-19-025258-8(CKB)3710000000376379(SSID)ssj0001038403(PQKBManifestationID)12472051(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001038403(PQKBWorkID)11065148(PQKB)11085638(StDuBDS)EDZ0001019358(MiAaPQ)EBC5751206(MiAaPQ)EBC1047473(Au-PeEL)EBL1047473(OCoLC)958566950(EXLCZ)99371000000037637920160829d2013 uy engur|||||||||||txtccrInto the desert : reflections on the Gulf War1st ed.New York :Oxford University Press,[2013]©20131 online resource (xx, 206 pages, 8 unnumbered pages of plates) illustrations (black and white)Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph0-19-979628-9 Includes bibliographical references and index.Forward / Ryan C.
