China Economic Review, 2014, vol. 31, issue C, 119-129

Abstract: In this paper, we examine China's shadow banking institutions for financial risks. We use a bank stress test to analyze solvency risk for the systemically important financial institutions and the banking system as a whole. We find that there is some risk of bankruptcy and potentially a risk of liquidity shortages, for which we lack sufficient data to run a stress test. We conclude with policy recommendaitons.
