China's banks face pressure on earnings and asset quality in the coming mon...

ICBC, the third of China’s top five state-owned listed banks to post half-year results, reported a 4.7% rise in profit.

Banks must now set interest rates on new loans with reference to the LPR, which is now set under a revamped mechanism designed to help lower borrowing costs for companies. Bank of Communications , which reported a 4.9% rise in first-half net profit earlier this week, said asset quality would be key. “The overall performance of the sector will continue to fall, and the valuation on Chinese banks will be under pressure,” he added.
