Too big to fail? China’s wealth management products stir debate





The default of a Chinese investment plan has handed Beijing a tough choice: bail out investors and endorse moral hazard or let it fail and risk unnerving those who hold at least US$1 trillion in so-called wealth management products.


China’s bank regulators are debating what to do about the investment sold at a Hua Xia Bank branch near Shanghai, which failed to pay out on maturity late last month. The bank, a mid-sized lender partly owned by Deutsche Bank , says a Jiading district branch employee sold the product without authorisation.
