Trust company Zhongrong International Trust (ZRT) started missing payments to its extensive client base on August 8th, with no remedy in sight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Zhongrong is under the umbrella of Chinese financialization provider Zhongzhi Enterprise Group (ZEG). Zhongzhi is China\u2019s mini-BlackRock, managing $138 billion in assets. The firm\u2019s board secretary, Wang Qiang, informed investors earlier in the week that no redemptions are incoming for at least 30 financial yield products due to dried-up short-term liquidity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-real-estate-and-financialization-gfc-2-0\">Real Estate and Financialization: GFC 2.0?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Global Financial Crisis of 2008, triggering the Great Recession, started as a speculative drive on the real estate market. Not only were borrowing standards loosened, but the financial sector packaged and leveraged those bad subprime mortgages as securities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In turn, securitization of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/tokenist.com\/loans\/bad-credit-loans-guaranteed-approval\/\">bad credit<\/a>&nbsp;gave the banks leeway to make more loans, increasing the vulnerability of the entire financial system. The same deadly combo of the over-extended housing market and financialization transpires in China.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is estimated that 70% of China\u2019s average household wealth is tied up in the housing market. Evergrande Group is China\u2019s second-largest property developer, having accrued $340 billion in debt by the end of 2022. On August 28th, the group is yet to decide on its $3.2 billion restructuring plan to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/markets\/asia\/country-garden-shares-slump-record-low-after-onshore-bond-trading-halted-2023-08-14\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">stave off collapse<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amid this overleveraging, China\u2019s new home prices are starting to fall. For the first time in 2023, July\u2019s National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) data shows a 0.2% month-over-month drop. In less metropolitan regions, average new homes depreciate in at least 35 smaller cities, continuing a 17-month depreciation streak.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-zhongrong-catching-contagion\">Zhongrong Catching Contagion?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The freshly troubled Zhongrong is one of the holders of real estate liabilities as a part of China\u2019s $2.9 trillion trust sector. Use Trust data shows that Zhongrong offers 270 yield products, expected to deliver ~$5.4 billion this year. With short-term liquidity running dry, that plan is now under a big question mark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Spilling out of real estate exposure, China\u2019s financial contagion could now spread to trust products. Since Friday, the immediate loss doesn\u2019t appear to be severe enough to destabilize companies\u2019 daily operations. KBC Corp (<a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/quote\/688598.SS\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">688598.SS<\/a>) reported delayed yield on the firm\u2019s&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/static.sse.com.cn\/disclosure\/listedinfo\/announcement\/c\/new\/2023-08-12\/688598_20230812_3ROX.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">$8.3 million<\/a>&nbsp;assets in Zhongrong, while Nacity Property Service (<a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/quote\/603506.SS?p=603506.SS&amp;.tsrc=fin-srch\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">603506.SS<\/a>) had the same issue with its $4.15 million trust stake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, most companies declined to even comment on any delayed trust payments. This is likely the result of China\u2019s recent crackdown on reporting negative economic news to prevent contagion.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201cThe risk of a systemic shock to the Chinese financial system is not great, but the downward pressure on the economy will intensify,\u201d&nbsp;<\/em>Yan Wang, Alpine Macro\u2019s chief emerging markets and China strategist<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This month, China suspended youth jobless data reporting while&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/b2e0ad77-3521-4da9-8120-1f0c1fdd98f8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">pressuring economists<\/a>&nbsp;to refrain from publicly discussing China\u2019s macro conditions. One of those stumbling points is the estimated decline in GDP growth, having recently been cut from 4.9% to 4.5% by Barclays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">China\u2019s Shadow Banking as the Cherry on the Macro Cake<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">China\u2019s economy is a hybrid blend between officially sanctioned state capitalism and a grey economy. This has been evident for years in the crypto market, wherein China still produces the second-largest Bitcoin&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/worldpopulationreview.com\/country-rankings\/bitcoin-mining-by-country\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">mining hashrate<\/a>, despite cryptocurrencies being officially banned.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the traditional sector, this manifests as shadow banking, ramping up in the late 1990s. As unregulated financial activities across trust companies and peer-to-peer lending, China\u2019s shadow banking takes in riskier investments while presenting unfair competition to more regulated banks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">China\u2019s shadow banking sector is estimated to be around $3 trillion, equal to the UK\u2019s entire economy. In the present context of real estate exposure spilling into yield products, trust companies are the key pillars of this shadow sector.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The likes of Zhongrong have more leeway than banks to take in riskier exposure, and by doing that contagion risk is greater as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201cThis is something where the problems are probably not going to be confined to this individual trust but are going to spread to or become more evident in the trust industry as a whole,\u201d&nbsp;<\/em>Arthur Kroeber, Gavekal\u2019s partner and head of research<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to cracking down on publicizing these problems, China is taking a more proactive approach. While Fed Chair Jerome Powell is still in the \u201chigher for longer\u201d mode, the People\u2019s Bank of China (PBOC) unexpectedly cut interest rates on Tuesday, from 2.65% to 2.50%<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201cAll of these add to the urgency that policymakers need to act fast before consumer and business confidence deteriorate sharply,\u201d<\/em>Tommy Wu, Commerzbank\u2019s senior China economist<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This was China\u2019s second rate hike in three months, aiming to bolster commercial banks as it reduces their losses on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/tokenist.com\/the-warnings-signs-and-red-flags-before-three-banks-fell\/\">net interest margins<\/a>. Increasingly negative China news outflow of China is also the likely culprit for Michael Burry\u2019s $1.6 billion bearish bet against the stock market.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8212;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Originally Posted August 16, 2023 &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/tokenist.com\/chinas-3t-shadow-banking-exacerbates-contagion-risk\/\">China\u2019s $3T Shadow Banking Exacerbates Contagion Risk<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Disclosure: Tim Fries has no positions in any of the stocks mentioned, and has no plans to initiate any positions within the 72 hours following the publishing of this article.
