15 China is growing at 6.7% in 1Q16 and broadly stabilizing, but.. The recent improvement in China s industrial sectors is due to the government s fiscal and quasi-fiscal spending ramp-up in the second half of last year by 16%, or RMB2.4trn In Q1, increases in total credit exploded to RMB7.5tn, up 58% YoY and equivalent to 47% of nominal GDP the highest ratios ever Considering also swaps of local government debt into local government bonds, total credit to the non-financial sector actually increased nearly RMB3tn in March

22 Debt is rising much faster than output An increasing share of debt is allocated in excess capacity sectors. Eventually, such costs will have to be borne by the financial sector and eventually by savers, asset prices will have to correct, corporate profitability may be depressed, and future growth will be hurt. Assets exploded by a record RMB27trn ($4.1trn) in 2015, rising by 15.7% to RMB200trn. There are significant limitations to continuing to expand a $31trn banking system by $3 to 4trn in assets per year without resorting to increasingly speculative funding strategies. China now accounts for 28% of the global stock of M2, significantly higher than in any other country.

23 China s companies have taken on $10trn of debt in the past eight years (10% in Forex) In 2007 China s Total non financial debt to GDP ratio was 147%. Now it is at 260% and climbing, possibly 300% in Total debt RMB152tn ($23tn). Net debt increase 2015: RMB18trn, 2016: RMB23trn. Source: FT
