Russ,

Have you seen Brad Setser's paper on this bizarre chinese banking system? Grant's this week had an extensive review of it. "Dilapidated, corrupt and essentially broke"

Seems like a mistake to think of these things as banks, they are really more of a branch of the government used for massive Keynesian stimulus (and political favors). Can't understand how the Bank of China could suck in $10 billion of private money in this IPO. Who are these 'investors'?
