Hong Kong SAR

If the damage of the Brexit is contained in the U.K., the direct economic impact on China should be marginal. China's relatively closed financial system makes it less exposed to global shocks than most other countries. It is too soon to expect a policy response from the Chinese authorities just yet, but Brexit has pushed China's "balancing act" needle further toward stimulus.

There are no signs of broader financial stress in the Chinese corporate sector. The most recent financial market turmoil has had no systemic damage to corporate sector balance sheets. We are leaning against being overly bearish. Current valuation readings, particularly for Chinese H shares and Hong Kong stocks, on a historical basis have never been sustainable.
