A review of what is happening in the Asian non-performing loan ("NPL") market
In our last issue of NPL Asia (May 2006) we predicted market activity would be robust in 2006 and the market has proven us correct. Activity levels were strong in most regions, particularly China, Thailand, Korea, Taiwan, Malaysia and the Philippines. Will the pace of sales continue into 2007? To find out, read on.
In this issue we start off with Malaysia, Asia's newest hot NPL market. PwC advised Malaysia's largest bank in the country's first NPL disposal since the issuance of guidelines for the disposal of NPLs by the Malaysian central bank last year. Activity levels are expected to pick up substantially with other banks contemplating sales in coming months, many as a result of tightened loan provisioning guidelines for NPLs aged more than 5 years.
The information contained in NPL Asia has been obtained from numerous sources in the market and is believed to be accurate at the time of going to print. We trust you will continue to find this publication useful, and we welcome any comments you may have.
