What could be the next Asian credit growth crisis?

Current slowdown in credit may cause bigger headaches, says Morgan Stanley.

But they say credit growth in Asia is not yet a cause for concern.

Here's more from Morgan Stanley:

We don’t see credit growth as excessive, in spite of the many concerns being raised. No major economy in Asia has seen excess credit growth comparable to what preceded the worst banking crises around the globe.

Indeed, in all four major economies we track in our report – China, India, Korea and Australia – credit is starting to stabilise relative to GDP. This illustrates how tightened policy has already had an impact on credit and suggests that if a crisis were to hit, it would be because too little was done too late, not because policy-makers were oblivious to the risks.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
