| Summary: | The COVID-19 pandemic posed a huge risk to the world economy, as it caused four meltdowns in the U.S. stock market in March 2020 and contributed to a 4.36% year-over-year reduction in world GDP in 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic was once thought that the pandemic would cause a new financial crisis.
The banking sector, which plays an important role in financial markets, was also deeply affected by this COVID-19 crisis. It is interesting to explore the performance and risk management process of the Chinese banking sector in this global recession, as China has performed well in resisting the economic stresses brought by the COVID-19 pandemic and the level of economic recovery in 2021 is noteworthy. It also fills a gap in the comprehensive study of risk in China's banking sector during the pandemic and has implications for the study of risk management in the banking sector of developing countries during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The purpose of this paper is to explore the impact of COVID-19 on the level of risk (including credit risk, market risk and liquidity risk) in the Chinese banking industry using quantitative research methods, and the relationship between these risks and bank performance, and to study and discuss the results in the hope that they will contribute to the development of the Chinese banking industry.
