Professor Robert Engle discusses stress tests, global stability and China's banking system

—
Excerpt from Bloomberg -- "China has a banking sector which is in need of a lot of help. If you think about what we worry about in the US, we worry about our banks being too big to fail. But in China, the banks are already state owned. There is no possibility that they will fail... The Volatility Institute that I run has now set up a branch in Shanghai called The Volatility Institute at NYU Shanghai. We have translated the whole website into Chinese. It's got loads of Chinese assets in it and it's getting a lot of attention. And it talks about which are the weak banks in China and what could be done."
