China deal ends for Credit Suisse

Published: February 24, 2009
SHANGHAI: Industrial and Commercial Bank of China's fund venture with Credit Suisse said Tuesday that it had ended an overseas investment consulting agreement with the Swiss bank after the venture built up its own asset management expertise.
The venture, whose year-old overseas investment fund has lost nearly half its value since its opening, said it was the first to cancel its foreign adviser arrangement but said more Chinese funds would follow suit as they gain experience investing overseas.

Chinese fund managers, banks and brokerages scrambled to team up with overseas investment banks like Credit Suisse, Goldman Sachs and Lehman Brothers Holdings to sell overseas investment products after the government started the QDII program in 2006.

The Chinese prime minister, Wen Jiabao, said he was "worried" about its holdings of U.S. Treasuries and called on the United States to provide assurances that the investment was safe.
His remarks came at a news conference in Beijing after the final session of the National People's Congress, the Chinese legislature.
...
Analysts estimate that nearly half of China's $2 trillion in currency reserves are invested in U.S. Treasuries and notes issued by other government-affiliated agencies.
Those Chinese investments have helped assure the stability of the U.S. Treasury market despite the economic convulsions of the last year, and some economists have warned of alarming consequences should the Chinese investments stop propping up the market for American public-sector debt.
