According to S&P Global Rating Chinese Local Governments have accumulated in excess of 40 Trillion Yuan ($5.8 Trillion) of off-balance sheet debts and that defaults are extremely likely to occur.
A team of S&P Economists lead by Gloria Lu reported that much of this debt built up by Local Governments Finance Vehicles do not have the full financial. “The potential amount of debt is an iceberg with titanic credit risks,”

With the National Economy slowing due to the growing trade tensions with the USA, the Beijing set of quota for the issuance of local-Government bonds is not enough to fund the old and new infrastructure projects that are used to support regional growth. Authorities across the country have resorted to LGFV (Local Government financing vehicle) to raise the necessary finance according to Gloria Lu.
This has left the LGFVs “walking a tightrope” between deleveraging and transforming their businesses into more typical state-owned enterprises, the S&P analysts said.
With rising defaults within the LGFV market, the Chinese Government is seeking to roll back a decade’s old practice of implicit guarantees for the debt
The most sensitive LGFVs include the following, in S&P’s analysis:
• Those tied to weakened prefectural, city or district-level Governments with lenient supervision over state-owned enterprises.
• Those focused on commercial activities -- thus having lower importance to Local Governments.
• Those with serious refinancing risks thanks to large short-term debt or reliance on borrowing from the shadow-banking sector.
A shift in Chinese Central Governments thinking is occurring, previously they were focused on reducing leverage in the financial system now they are the focus on funding to sustain growth at the Local level.
“The markets are right, in our view, to feel more concerned about the sustainability of China’s debt and the increased financial risks,” said Liu Li-Gang, chief China economist at Citigroup in Hong Kong. He also said there will be “renewed pressure” on the yuan.
Even with the Central Government’s shift toward the increased stimulus, however, S&P sees Beijing determined to “bring discipline to the financing practices of Local Governments and their LGFVs.” That ultimately may mean Local Authorities aren’t fully able to keep LGFVs afloat, however, and the bottom line is “the default risk of LGFVs is increasing.”
