The premise is "Most banks operating in China are owned or controlled by the Chinese government, and these banks' lending decisions are more likely to reflect official government policy than astute business judgment."

The western concept of solvency may have no meaning in this context. This type of banking may well only represent government investment without the notion of a return on investment as we understand it.

If so, any analysis that ignores this reality is bound to be useless in trying to understand China.
