Book The Impact of Cultural Factors on Chinese Housing Prices

Download or read book The Impact of Cultural Factors on Chinese Housing Prices written by Jianyi Zhao and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sharply rising housing prices have long a heated topic in China and much research has been done to explain the phenomenon. Different from many papers that focus on fundamental factors, this paper discusses the impact of cultural factors. In particular, I analyze the influence on housing prices of the gender ratio and Hukou restrictions. First, as Hukou restrictions introduce an artificial barrier to regional mobility and constraint individuals in migrating to rapidly growing urban areas, I expect they will lead to higher housing prices. Second, due to the fact that husbands have to provide housing for their prospective wives, I hypothesize that imbalances in the gender ratio will additionally fuel demand for housing and thus lead to higher housing prices. Using Chinese census data from 1993 to 2013, covering 31 provincial level divisions that China currently administers, my findings indicate that, except for fundamental factors, there is a significant and positive relationship between Hukou restrictions and housing prices, and a significant and negative relationship between the gender ratio and housing prices. These results are robust to different model specifications underlining the importance of cultural factors driving housing prices in China. To address this issue, government policy could promote decentralization, remove family size restrictions, and provide residents with more investment options.

Book Stabilizing China   s Housing Market

Download or read book Stabilizing China s Housing Market written by Richard Koss and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2018-04-13 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sharp rise of house prices in China’s Tier-1 cities has fostered a great deal of commentary about the possibility of bubbles forming there. However, China’s unique housing market characteristics make it difficult to assess the macroeconomic severity of bursting bubbles, even if they exist. These include the setting of land supply and prices by the government, among many others. The presence of overbuilt “ghost cities” greatly complicates the ability of traditional macroeconomic policies to address these concerns. This paper looks at proposals to shore up the mortgage underwriting and legal infrastructure to help China withstand the impact of falling prices, should this occur.

Book International Housing Market Experience and Implications for China

Download or read book International Housing Market Experience and Implications for China written by Rebecca L. H. Chiu and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2019-03-18 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent rapid housing market expansion in China is presenting new challenges for policy makers, planners, business people, and citizens. Now that housing in middle-income China is driven by consumer choices and is no longer dominated by state policy decisions, housing policy issues in Chinese cities are becoming increasingly similar to those encountered in other global housing markets. With soaring prices and imbalances in housing supply favoring high income groups and housing demand driven by rising inequality in household incomes, many middle and lower-income households face worsening choices in terms of the quality and location of their housing as well as greater financial difficulties, which together can have negative implications for standards of public health. This book examines the impact of these changes on the general population, as well as on aspiring homeowners and developers. The contributors look at the effect on the widening of wealth gaps, slower economic growth, and threats to political and social stability. Though focusing on China, the editors also present discussions of specific policy design challenges encountered in Australia, Japan, Korea, the Netherlands, the Nordic countries, Singapore, Taiwan, the UK, and the US. This book would be of interest to housing policy makers, as well as academics who are studying the social and political effects of the Chinese housing market.

Book The Value of the Urban Built Environment

Download or read book The Value of the Urban Built Environment written by Hao Huang and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study uses hedonic price models to explore the implicit prices of the built environment that residents favor in Wuhan, China, where a real housing market has been gradually formed, but micro level factors that affect housing prices within the urban built environment have not been explored. This study identifies 18 housing variables (comprising locational, structural and neighborhood characteristics) to construct the hedonic price model to understand which factors of the urban built environment impact housing prices in Wuhan, China. The research results show that increases in housing prices are strongly related to the locational characteristics. Among these characteristics, the greatest effect on the housing price is distance to the major road along Yangtze River. The next greatest influence is distance to the light rail line, followed by distance to the CBD, the number of stories and the sale year. The study suggests that when the natural resources of water bodies are integrated with other cultural, tourism, and economic resources, they have significant impacts on the housing price. The study also suggests that proximity to the CBD has a positive relationship with the housing price while proximity to light rail line has a negative effect on the housing price within one mile from the light rail line.

Book The Development of the Chinese Financial System and Reform of Chinese Commercial Banks

Download or read book The Development of the Chinese Financial System and Reform of Chinese Commercial Banks written by D. Luo and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-03-08 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Chinese financial sector, despite having been developed at a much later stage compared with other developed nations, has achieved substantial progresses over the past decades. By the end of 2014, a total of 16 commercial banks had been listed on the stock exchanges, exerting strong impact onto the market indices and contributing significantly to the country's sustained economic growth. This book reviews the evolution of the Chinese financial system, examining the effectiveness of reform strategies made by the government over the last ten years. The first chapter offers a comprehensive review of the development of the Chinese banking sector and the state-owned banks (SOBs). The second chapter focuses on the efficiency of the Chinese banking sector. Employing data envelopment analysis (DEA) and stochastic frontier analysis (SFA), the author tests the change of efficiency within the Chinese banking sector over the past decade. It also looks at the strategy adopted by the Chinese government as the final attempt in reforming its troublesome SOBs and the effectiveness of such a reform strategy. The next chapter examines the corporate governance practise of the Chinese commercial banks, and the author follows by investigating the effect of the 2007 US credit crunch on Chinese banks and the country's wider economy. Other chapters survey the influence of foreign entry to the Chinese domestic banking sector, and the development of shadow banking in China. The author concludes by discussing the role of the central bank, namely the People's Bank of China (PBOC), and its role in implementing effective policies to promote economic growth.
