Comments by Moody's on China's 2018 outlook - 12 December 2017

  • Liquidity will stay broadly stable, with a tightening bias in China
  • Outlook stable for Chinese financial institutions through 2018
  • Banks' capitalisation levels will stay stable - underpinned by slowing asset growth and capital raising
  • Government support will remain strong for major banks
  • Financial and social stability remain key policy priorities in China

Some comments regarding China's policy focus and financial institutions' outlook.

A better read I would say regarding the PBOC's potential next course of action would be the one here - which is in response to US tax cuts as well as the Fed raising rates.
