State-owned Banks Sell Huge Bad Assets

The China Construction Bank and the Bank of China sold over US$30 billion in bad assets to China Cinda Asset Management Company. The signing ceremony was held in Beijing Wednesday afternoon.

This was the latest sale to help the two state-owned banks dispose of their non-performing loans, and some analysts believe it may also be the last time.

Cinda will pay the two banks around US$10 billion over a three-year period. That means the banks will recover 30 percent of the bad assets, which is actually higher than the average of the country's four biggest state-owned banks.

In contrast to previous disposals of bad assets, Cinda won the deal through a public bidding process. The central bank will help Cinda with financing.
