More talk of credit tightening in China

Call me a bitter old cynic, but some of the talk in this ICIS news article about a government lending crackdown might be from a few traders taking positions.

But still, it does seem as if the government is taking some measures to restrict loan growth.

Earlier, it appeared unclear as to whether the restrictions would effect trade finance. Now it seems that quotas will set per quarter next year for total loan growth, whether it's trade credit or capital expenditure.
