摘要
We examine the resilience of Chinese banks during the COVID-19 pandemic by investigating nonperforming loan (NPL) ratios. We find that despite the reduction in the growth rate of total bank lending, bank NPL ratios significantly increase during the COVID-19 crisis. Banks with highquality capital are more effective in controlling their NPL ratios during the Crisis. Big Five banks, state-owned banks and domestic banks have lower NPL ratios than their counterparts during the Crisis.
