5 minute readMarch 10, 20233:14 PM GMT+8Last Updated a month ago SHANGHAI/HONG KONG, March 10 (Reuters) - China's push to revive the economy this year by increasing infrastructure spending while warding off financial risks is facing headwinds from massive local-government debt, which is more than $9 trillion and growing. As debt obligations mount, some local governments are pushing banks to extend maturities and cut interest rates, sources said. Local Government Financing Vehicles (LGFVs) have 5.5 trillion yuan ($790 billion) worth of onshore bonds coming due this year, the highest since 2021, according to Fitch.A sharp drop in income from mainstay land sales and fewer options for raising fresh funds have fuelled concerns about LGFVs' ability to meet debt obligations and its impact on the broader banking sector and markets. The ability of fiscally stretched local governments to follow through on spending will also be a key test for China's modest economic growth target of around 5% this year, as LGFVs play a key role in funding infrastructure projects, one of the biggest growth drivers for the world's second-largest economy.So far, they have been no public reports of an LGFV default, but some have had loans extended.

The Judges refused sustain it as a court case, bacause they all are one kind CCP kind. Unfinished property home buyer no choice have to move in because they can't afford to pay rental.. very pity

This is only a small part incident of Kunming City. In democratic country there is always a legislations system to sue the developer. But in this country developers, Judges, Police all are CCP. End up those homebuyers need to pay $ 9000 legislation fees. What a big joke.

Evil supports always asked that why did you always bad mouth or look down the evil.

To tell the truth considered bad mouth ?

Evil supporters answered that telling truths or facts anything about the evil were discrimination because the evil MUST be democratic, perfect, smart, peaceful and fair person. What a silly Malaysian red army.

China megabanks plan US$5.8bil bond sales to plug capital shortfall

HINA's biggest banks are planning at least 40 billion yuan ($5.8 billion) of bond sales to plug a major fund shortfall ahead of a 2025 deadline to meet global capital requirements, Bloomberg News reported on Friday.

Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Ltd and three other banks are planning to sell a new category of total loss-absorbing bonds in the domestic debt market as early as June, the report said, citing people familiar with the matter.

Each bank is targeting at least 10 billion yuan ($1.46 billion), however exact amounts have not been finalised, the report added.

The development comes at a time when Asian policymakers are scrambling to calm investor nerves about Additional Tier-1 (AT1) bonds after holdings of such bonds of Credit Suisse were written down to zero.

Fuelling debt increase

The United States and China – the world’s two biggest economies – are almost entirely fuelling the predicted debt increase, the IMF said.

The US ratio of debt to gross domestic product (GDP) is set to increase to 136.2% in 2028 from 121.7% in 2022.

China’s debt is forecast to soar to 104.9% of GDP in the next five years from 77.1% in 2022 as spending increases and the economy expands less than projected prior to the pandemic.

Terminally ill! China's local debt of 275 trillion Guizhou became the first bankrupt province?
13/04/2023, 10:31:50 pm

[Financial Channel/Comprehensive Report] China's local debt exceeds US$9 trillion (approximately NT$275 trillion), which has become an uncertain time bomb for China's financial system. Recently, Guizhou publicly blew up its high debts, which cannot be resolved by its own ability alone. It directly appealed to Chinese Premier Li Qiang for "intellectual support"

[Financial Channel/Comprehensive Report] China's local debt exceeds US$9 trillion (approximately NT$275 trillion), which has become an uncertain time bomb for China's financial system.

Recently, Guizhou publicly blew up its high debts, which cannot be solved by its own ability alone. It directly appealed to Chinese Premier Li Qiang to get "intellectual support" to relieve financial pressure.

China's Guizhou Provincial Government Development Research Center posted on its website on the 11th that the Finance, Taxation and Financial Research Department of the research center recently went to Guiyang, Gui'an, Zunyi, Bijie, Liupanshui and other places to conduct the so-called "Special Research on Resolving Guizhou Local Government Debt". It is found that the debt problem has become a major and urgent problem facing the local governments. However, due to "limited financial resources", it is extremely difficult to advance the debt relief work, and it is impossible to effectively solve it by relying on its own ability.

The article emphasizes that the research team will seek "intellectual support" from the National Research Center in the next step, and put forward feasible suggestions for resolving local debts in Guizhou.

The National Research Center refers to the Development Research Center of the State Council of China. Guizhou's move is tantamount to shouting at Li Qiang, hoping that the central government will give money quickly, otherwise it will lie flat.

Guizhou publicly admitted that it was unable to solve the huge debt problem, and even appealed to the central government, which aroused discussion. At present, this article has been deleted, and the reprints on China's major social platforms have gradually disappeared.

How serious is the local debt problem in China?

According to Reuters, China's local government debt exceeds US$9 trillion and continues to increase. Local governments also require banks to postpone debts or lower lending rates.

According to data from Fitch International, the amount of overseas debt due by Chinese local governments through "local financing platforms" this year has increased to US$790 billion, a record high since 2021.

The IMF's latest report also stated that the total debt of China's local government financing vehicles has increased from 57 trillion yuan (about NT$253.6 trillion) last year to a record 66 trillion yuan (about NT$293 trillion), which is equivalent to the country's GDP. half.

According to statistics from Chinese media, by the end of 2022, the debt ratios of the four provinces of Heilongjiang, Xinjiang, Tianjin, and Guizhou will exceed 400%.
