Asian banks' liquidity coverage ratios exceed 100%

Funding and liquidity will remain Asian banks' credit strength.

Asian banks are mostly deposit-funded with liquid balance sheets, and their reliance on wholesale funding sources is moderate, according to Moody's Investors Service.

Here's more from Moody's:

Banks in Mongolia, Australia and New Zealand are an exception, relying more heavily on wholesale funding; yet, the latter two systems have shown some tangible improvements since 2008.

Banks scaled back their US dollar commercial paper issuance in 2016, because of a trade finance slowdown and US money market reform.

China’s small and medium-sized banks face increasing funding pressure due to their high, and rising, levels of reliance on market funding.

Indian banks benefited from deposit inflows following the de-monetisation.
