China Press Digest: Tuesday, August 8
BEIJING (MNI) - The following are highlights from the China press Tuesday,
August 8:
Debt-to-equity swaps should be a complimentary policy for dealing with
corporate debt -- not a main measure for deleveraging, the Economic Information
Daily said in a front-page commentary Tuesday. Swaps will accelerate in the
second half of this year with support from authorities but an abrupt or
excessive expansion will increase "moral risk" to economic development, it said.
Debt problems result from low returns from investment in the real economy --
which can't be solved by swaps alone. Market-oriented and legal guidance is
necessary for swaps to have an effect on deleveraging, it said. (Economic
Information Daily)
The nonperforming loans ratio at commercial banks will continue to rise on
poor asset quality, the Financial News, a journal run by the People's Bank of
China, reported Tuesday quoting a report by the China Banking Association. Bank
assets and liabilities growth was maintained at 10% in the past two years, the
report said. Lower interest margins and higher credit costs are challenges to
increasing bank net profits. Market and liquidity risks will increase as the
financial environment changes and interest and foreign exchange rates are
volatile, the report said. (Financial News)
The supply of land should be increased to help cool rising home prices in
Tier One cities, the 21st Century Business Herald reported Tuesday quoting the
former vice president of the Development Research Center of the State Council
Liu Shijin. Existing real-estate market regulations concentrate on the demand
side by restricting mortgages and purchases -- a short-term measure only, Liu
said. Changes on the supply side can alter market expectations for prices, Liu
said. Land available for residential construction should be increased to 40% of
the total land for urban construction by transferring some land at present zoned
industrial, Liu said. (21st Century Business Herald)
Beijing's plan to introduce joint property ownership -- where homebuyers
and the government each own a share of homes but occupiers have full right of
use -- can prevent property-market risks and help people into their own homes,
the People's Daily said Tuesday. The plan aims to assist the overall property
market in the long term, the commentary said. Authorities need to prevent
speculation but still satisfy demand for home ownership, it said. (People's
Daily)
