Margin lending risk at China securities firms controllable

15 Jan, 2016

SHANGHAI: Margin lending risks at securities firms are controllable, a spokesman for China's securities regulator told a regular news conference on Friday.

The spokesman was responding to a question on domestic media reports that 500 billion yuan ($75.93 billion) of equity market positions faced potential margin calls, which he said was incorrect.
