PBOC warns about rising corporate debt
People's Bank of China (PBOC) Governor Zhou Xiaochuan fired a warning shot regarding the elephant in the room – corporate debt.
"Lending as a share of GDP, especially corporate lending as a share of GDP, is too high," PBOC leader said.
Zhou added that one of the options for addressing high leverage is to channel more savings into capital markets.
