How CHINA hopes to avoid a SUBPRIME CRISIS - VisualPolitik EN

This video is sponsored by Ground News. Download Ground News for free here: check.ground.news/visualpolitik
Alibaba is one of China's most successful companies. Its financial arm, Ant Financial, has generated a revolution in China. In a country where almost all traditional banking was in the hands of the State, it was practically impossible for small businesses or families to get credit. All this has changed with this fintech.
However, just when Ant Financial was about to break an all-time record with its IPO, the Chinese regulators have put the brakes on it. There are several political and ideological reasons, but also economic ones. In this video we explain them to you.

    The government is right. Fintech companies only interest is lending as much as possible and when things go wrong, they start saying the government did a poor job policing the money markets. Its so crazy, they will literally say that to hide the fact that their only interest is to lend to as many people as possible without caring about the business environment or the ability of the borrowers to pay back their loans. Greed 101.

    Well, since one can't just give free money, lending is a good option to help people with necessities or business ideas. The problems is when bad invesments become general (and this can be due bad incentives) or banks having poor controls. The fact that buying houses becomes a way to invest and shadow baking common, should be enough indicator that the chinese government is missing something.

    Banks typically can't, but since Ant Financial here is not a bank but is, in legal terms a financial technology company, it like many others around the world can bypass many of the safeguards that were put in place to stop banks from doing many of the things that caused and exacerbated the problems that came with the 2008 Financial Crisis.

    @@JAN0L I think you are misunderstanding the concept of fractional reserve banking. What that term means is that the bank has to retain a certain % of the money that is deposited with it in cash or highly liquid and non-volatile assets (e.g. US treasury bonds). So if the fraction is say 10%, that means that if I deposit $100 in the bank, the bank keeps $10 with itself and lends out the other $90 to someone else. So in this case, its not lending money out of nowhere, its lending money that they have actually received. This is different from a platform like Ant Financial. Up until recently, it generated just paired up people who wanted to borrow money with people who want to invest in riskier assets. There is no skin in the game that these companies need to have, or at least in Ant Financial's case up until the Chinese Financial Regulators stepped in. Even then it only needed to fork out 30% of the loan amount. So when Ant Financial arranges a loan of say $100, the company itself loans out $30. The remaining $70 comes from people looking to invest on the platform. Thats a pretty big difference of operations there. If the loan fails, Ant Financial only takes 30% of the pain, whereas if this was a typical bank situation the bank takes 100% of the pain. (I'm excluding restructuring complications here) Now since the money that was lost in the bank's case came from its depositors, it has a vested interest in making sure that they don't just give out loans to any1 who asks. The customer doesn't care that the bank lost money on a loan made with their deposits, they want to have their deposit back with interest. As far as their concerned losses are the bank's problem. This is in direct contrast with Financial Technology companies operating as investment platforms like Ant Financial. They don't have deposits, so they don't answer to any depositors. In fact, they take a cut on any earnings of these investments, so they're generally incentivized to make as many loans as possible to generate as much fees as they can. If the loan blows up, the people who invested in them just eat all the losses with practically no recourse available to them. Because of this, they're not banks in a legal sense, so they escape any reserve requirements that would otherwise be placed on them. All those BASEL III rules? Not applying to them. China may have been the country that got the most media attention for acting on this issue, but it is by far from the only one looking into this problem now.

Every single loop in the chain should be identifiable and the investment insured.

    To prevent a financial crisis or to maintain control over the economy? I think both. Considering the Chinese economy arrived at the point when South Korea reached just before the IMF crisis, I have long predicted that China should prepare for such a crisis in the near future. It is quite natural, for nationalist leaders who want their economy to boost rapidly, to concentrate national resources into specific areas, according to Alfred Mashall's theory on industrialisation. So, during rapid economic development, both governments pushed banks to lend money at the lowest interest rate to certain companies which are designated by the government as being prioritised, like South Korean big giants, Samsung, LG, and Hanhwa et cetra. At the point where the national economy is transferring into the info-tech economy of which the service sector and high-value industry possess the largest potion, some of the prioritised companies could be exposed to the risk of finance credit crises. I'm not an expert in finance but from my knowledge, as one of those who experienced the IMF crisis, I would not be surprised when China runs into such a crisis. On the other hand, from my watching at Chinese society, there seems to be a certain sort of complaint about the CCP's control over the economy among the business community in China. And old-fashioned power infight among the CCP nobles too.

    Loans to small businesses and individuals (for homes, for example) is how you allow the vast majority of people to accumulate wealth. It's a symbiotic relationship where banks make back money through interest rates, and the individuals build up equity, and in most cases, both sides win. In China's case, if all the banks are state run, then the incentive is to give money to those who can help you consolidate your political power, and when there aren't any direct elections the individual citizen is not your power base - it's others within your party. Functionally it sounds like the Chinese economic model is a modern feudal system, where the banks and companies are the new kingdoms, their respective CEOs are lords, and the central communist party is the king. Everyone else is fine with the arrangement as long as they're fed and entertained.

    10:30 This sounds like Ant is less of a bank and more of a loan servicer. 10:37 So, they connect you with a lender, but also lend a portion themselves? Comparing that percentage to a reserve requirement sounds like flailing for a link to foreign institutions no matter how tenuous. If Ant is connecting clients with a back-end lender, the macroeconomic effects of the reserve requirements come from how the underlying lenders are incentivised. This video gives just enough information to let an attentive viewer know that the Ant financial lending model and it's legal status in china are not exactly straightforward. Starting around 10:50 it is basically nonsense unless you were not paying attention, you are not familiar with the split between lender and loan servicer, or perhaps you are more familiar with he system than a viewer of Visual Politic can be expected to be. A servicer does not make the final choice on a loan being issued. The role of the fintech entity in these types of transactions is to as fast as possible get enough information exchanged between the parties of the loan such that they can both make a decision. Really, the lendee only wants a "yes" or "no" on if the loan will be given, the trick is getting the right data to a lender such that the lender is comfortable using an automated process based on that data to approve and reject loan applications. If Ant is paying part of the loan itself, it is not "just an intermediary" as claimed a 10:30 and things get weird.

    Nice report yet it completely misses the point. First China scoops all bank deposits and uses them to generate GDP. Meaning the banks lend out the money to anyone who can generate jobs. The company doesn’t have to make a profit or even be something the government wants or needs, just generate employment. If the banks have less money, the government has less GDP. Second the government doesn’t want any system which would facilitate capital flight outside of China. Both of those are very bad for a country like China who is already over leverage larger than any other country in the history of the world both in absolute and relative measurements.
