Chapter 1 in Investigating the Performance of Chinese Banks: Efficiency and Risk Features, 2016, pp 1-11 from Palgrave Macmillan Abstract: Abstract The Chinese banking sector, the sector linked to the lives of everybody in the society, plays a vital role in promoting economic growth in China. In addition, the Chinese government and banking regulatory authorities make consistent efforts to create a sustainable, healthy and well-performing banking sector. Great attention has been paid to issues in the Chinese banking industry by a growing number of academic researchers.

This book comprehensively and systematically examines the risk conditions and efficiencies in the Chinese banking industry. In particular, this book evaluates the inter-relationships between risk and efficiency, and the inter-relationships between different types of risk.
