China banks’ bad loan ratio rises to 1.04% in March
BEIJING - Chinese banks’ non-performing loan ratio edged up to 1.04 per cent at the end of March, a shade higher than the 1 per cent at the end of last December, the country’s bank regulator said on Thursday.
The weighted average capital adequacy ratio of Chinese banks fell slightly to 12.13 per cent as of the end of the first quarter, from 12.19 per cent at the end of December, the China Banking Regulatory Commission said in a statement on its website, www.cbrc.gov.cn
A higher capital adequacy ratio is seen as good for the financial system as lenders have more cash to cover the cost of unforeseen risks, benefiting depositors. The downside for investors is that a high ratio could crimp profitability. - REUTERS
