The Central Banks dont say how long rates will be affected. What is this mean for the Global Economy . This filters through to money market rates, cash systems, and rates. Approves is the banks of the negative rate scenario, the new regime that Central Banks find themselves in. The Study Confirms that negative rates are transmitted to the market in the same way positive rates are, so the market treats them in the same way, however avoid negative risks by extending maturities or lending to risk her counterparties. They have been critical of the boj, ecb, and the push towards equitable negative rates because it will eat into their profitability. European banking stocks taking a hit and 2016. Switzerland has the lowest policy rate. Rishaad the thing is these countries and Central Banks are trying to engender consumption, so if they are being paid for the privilege of lending to somebody, returns become much ,ess for your average punter and therefore they will not spend as much. That is the negative argument. Is that what people are also saying having negative inherent implications . Is a question of how it impacts the ordinary person, but also how it impacts the business world. Banks are concerned about profitability, saying it is eating into our numbers. The Central Banks saying the low rate regime is where we need to be to calibrate policy. The key concern is how long does is go on and how low do rates go. They have said zero has not proved to be a technically binding limit. They can go further, but warned whether transmission mechanisms will continue to operate as in the past and not be subject to digging points. Rishaad thank you very much indeed. 9 17 a. M. In hong kong. These are the stories making headlines. And the u. S. Starting their annual military exercises amid rising tensions over north Koreas Nuclear test and rocket launchers. They will run until the end of april. Pyongyang has denounced them as.

Emergency teams say 25 people have been rescued so far. Ferry was carrying trucks and cars when it went down. The inventor of email tied at 74. The internet hall of fame inducted him in 2012, saying it fundamentally change the way people can indicate. Colleagues say he was a humble and modest man, though not a frequent checker of his own email account. Powered by over 2400 journalists and 150 bureaus around the world, this is bloomberg news. A look at singapore as it becomes the first country to demand airlines tracked their own aircraft. This is trending business. Rishaad you are watching trending business. I am rishaad salamat. Singapore requiring companies to track their airplanes in response to the still unexplained disappearance of mh 370. Thank you for joining us. How will this work . Initiallyll work by requiring pilots to call into the airlines every 15 minutes to update their positions. What singapore is signaling is a move to an automated system, so systems will squawk back to headquarters and updike update positions every 15 minutes. Rishaad there is an inherent flaw. 70, clearly the transponder was turned off by somebody. If it was a closed system where they had no ability to have any simply over it, it could overheat according to the faa and induct with severe damage. End up with severe damage. 370,s you mentioned on mh someone turned off the transported transponder. They are talking about a system that would be hard to buy press bypass, taking away the element of someone having to deal with it. Are not in favor of having pilots call back to base. Moving to mandate an automated system, i think that will be the general move with countries around the world to make sure it is a system that cant be bypassed, or if it is, it would trigger some other alarm to let people know something has happened to that tracking system. Rishaad thats the point, isnt it . The faa has set a system like that could cause accidents if it is overheating. Any time there is something overheating on an aircraft, that becomes a fire hazard. Obviously a concern for regulators, because of fire on board an aircraft can start easily and get out of control quite quickly. We have seen a number of times where lithiumion batteries have caused issues. In that sense, they will have to work out a way around this. We either go for trying to mitigate that risk as much as possible and keeping flight tracking, or we try to come up with some other systems where that will be less seven issue. It seems to be the indication that coming up with systems that are less of a fire risk will be the way the industry goes. Have ahat we are ready number of Automated Systems on an aircraft, that fire issue will be overcome easily. Rishaad if we have that system in place, the automated one, would we know where it was and where it ended up, if mh370 was carrying it . If that system had been in off, and had been turned we would still have a good fix where it last was. It would bypass that transponder system and keep broadcasting. We had to rely on shadows with satellite things and mathematics to work out positions. The idea is we would know where it was last reported, and in that sense we would be able to narrow down a search and rescue area. When it came to the air france crash off the coast of brazil, the system that was turned off was working, but still took years to find wreckage. Help, help narrow it down, but wont need to instant results. In the event of an aircraft disappearance, it still may take time to find that aircraft. How is Singaporean Airlines likely to react to this cost . It is a cause they are willing to bear. The industry as a whole has been really willing to step up and play with this. Though there will be additional cost to bear, i think the singapore government has worked with airlines on that and they have agreed that it is a practical solution and they will bear the cost and go with that. Rishaad indeed, what about overall, managing the transition to all this . Is that likely to be challenging . On a global scale, it probably will be. In some places in the asiapacific, it will be easier. There are countries already moving towards having more sophisticated tracking technologies. Ae global go is to end up in place where satellites are able to track it going around the world. That will take some time. For less developed countries, that will be a cause imposed on them, and it will take them longer. Austria has already trial flight tracking successfully. Rishaad great talking to you.

The story in 2016 is that will continue, the government is exquisitely targeting more rapid expansion of lending and slower gdp growth, so the deleveraging camp has been kicking the can down the road.

Tell us about the problems that china has with its state owned enterprises. It is the largest offshore loan that a Chinese Company<\/a> has ever taken to fund overseas acquisition. This year we have seen a lot of Companies Taking<\/a> on debt to a fund overseas acquisitions. Also, beijing enterprises taking on 1. 4 billion euros. In fact, china state owned enterprises, amounts this year, including the pipeline, have exceeded last year. Rishaad are there alarm bells going off at the moment . Moodys downgrading the outlook for the country last week. 38 of these state owned enterprises downgraded. Moodys highlighted the height that level among esso ease state owned enterprises. Risk ofd the leverage further economic slowdown, because more money will be used to fund debt instead of growth. Some of the state owned are not paying close attention to their balance sheets, according to a bba economist, meaning more risk down the road. Rishaad you hear of these ,ombie state owned enterprises was there anything out of this weekend meeting dealing with that . The Chinese Government<\/a> has been talking about zombie reforms since december, and it reiterated its commitment for reform, saying it will cut steel and coal overcapacity, and will deal with sound the Companies Actively<\/a> and prudently. Of most importance according to economists. Some saying the progress will be slow because of the risk for social instability. Rishaad we will move to other stories we are following. Company suspended in hong kong, u. S. Authorities imposing restrictions on the company. That itrt alleges violated u. S. Export controls on iran, buying components and technology from u. S. Suppliers, which would be effected by the export restrictions. Sears down almost 20 for zte. A chairman says opportunities overseas as the Mining Industry<\/a> undergoes structural change. He says he is in touch with the worlds leading miners and says the Chinese Government<\/a> will look at foreign assets despite china looking to lower its dependence on outside resources. Bought glencores project in peru in 2014. Very few signs of abating, now at a 25 year low. We saw home sales plunge 70 in february. Having a look at all this. What is behind the slump . Were seeing a slowdown across the board. We have an economic slowdown, and estimates of analysts am a property analysts analyst, property analysts, sing prices go down 30 this year. Rishaad there are a lot of measures to really reverse that. Top officials and hong kong say they will not be stepping into ease any of the property curves. So what you have is the public saying, why should i be buying now when prices will be lower one year down the road. Rishaad that is the inflation market argument. Are there any parts of the market and immune to this . We are seeing Office Property<\/a> going really well. Chinese Companies Come<\/a> in and buy at record, ever grand cayman came inr ever grand last year to buy office space at record prices. Clearly that sector seems to be immune to a slowdown. Residential, it was sold in two hours . Us about the ultraluxury side of things. Even though it was so quickly, it sold at a price lower than expected. Analysts had expected the property to sell at one billion hong kong dollars or more, and it sold for 830 million, so we are ceiling seeing these are not tipping the records they have had in past years. Maybe i would argue there is some paying top dollar for a luxury home. Rishaad if they had just waited a bit i really dont know. Thank you very much. Up next, commodities on the slide, but is there light at the end of the tunnel. We will be live in melbourne. That is next. Rishaad falling Commodity Prices<\/a> over the past year have taken its toll in australia. There are signs the mans is coming back. Lets discuss that with the minister for resources and industry from melbourne. What are the signs of recovery . We have seen an increase in prices in recent days. What has been the major fact you are in the past is across the resources and energy spaces, the increase in supply. Eventually demand will increase and meet up with supply, and that is the result of what we , moreeing in the region urbanization, greater population growth, more people in the middle crass. When you talk about the chinese economy, for example, 6. 8 growth in 2015 is equivalent to china about continues to grow strongly, albeit off a bigger base. And you look at india, 300 Million People<\/a> without access to ofctricity, and hundreds millions of people moving from the regions into the cities. India will be a key source of increase in demand, as well as other countries in Southeast Asia<\/a> like vietnam, the philippines, indonesia, so we are upbeat. Lavead how much do you this at the doorstep of some of these big mining conglomerates . Ore, have a look at iron production has been ramped up, creating a supply glut, forcing prices down. Theseunny sort of way, Mining Companies<\/a> have been cutting their own noses to spite their face. These are free markets. So we have not sought to intervene in the operation of those markets. Youre right. There has been a massive increase in the supply capacity of iron ore. Australia is producing three times as much iron or today as it was a decade ago. This is a result of greater investment. When we saw higher prices, we encouraged investment, but also automation and productivity. Tintoies like bhp and rio are at the forefront of innovation in this sector. They are remotely running trains and drilling equipment and trucks from a perth headquarters, 1500 kilometers away. These are amazing advancements in innovation, which are boosting production, supply capacity. Rishaad what are you going to do about it all . That is the thing. We will allow the market to operate its self. Timeore is now about 52 a coming off lows at 40. That is a long way from 180 a ton, where was, but supply was increased as a result of dramatic investments, which was a product of the industrialization in china. Continues tohich move up steadily, well catch up with supply, and the will put upward pressure on prices as opposed to what we have seen come a which is downward pressure on prices. Rishaad thats just the thing, isnt it, you are in stasis generally speaking until you see a price recovery. Look, australia continues to benefit strongly, even when prices are low. Of course, not as much as we did when iron ore was 180 a time and oil was 140 a barrel. Australian producers are highly to iront when it comes ore, three quarters of our production is in the bottom half of the global cost curve. We are heavily automated. The Australian Dollar<\/a> will continue to attract investment in our country. While many people are negative about the space, i is a minister look at the Australian Market<\/a> see it as a glass halffull. I am overall positive about the future. Ok, well, there are certain aspects, lng for instance. The thing is that with the weaker dollar and the plunge in the price of oil that in is not happening, is it. What can you as a government do to encourage it . That is a good question. That we have seen massive investment in australia in the lng space, 200 billion worth of investment and Production Capacity<\/a> between 20032014. This means australia will as the largest lng exporter by 2020, a significant achievement. We are focused on the next wave of demand, and how do we attract that level of investment in new infrastructure. The way to do that is to reduce the cost of doing business in australia, and thats their labor market flexibility, deregulation, cutting the red tape, improvements to our taxation system, more infrastructure rollouts supported by the government. These are issues on the table here and australia, and having just attended an event in houston, where america achieved its first export of lng from louisiana to brazil, but austria must day ahead of the game if we are going to continue to attract investment and be the Worlds Largest<\/a> lng transporter. Rishaad an election year, and you have this budget coming up. Well, i guess people in an election, you always want a few handouts, dont you . Ith the deficit where it is, suppose the goodie bag is pretty empty. What are you going to do . We are not about to provide handouts, and we are conscious arehe deficit situation we in. At the same time, australia does not have the levels debt levels that other countries have, but we are focused on ,abor market flexibility focusing on innovation, and the Prime Minister<\/a> himself has announced a whole suite of new policies. A 50 billion infrastructure rollout, continued deregulation, and investment in skills and training, science and engineering, ensuring we have the workforce we need for the 21st century.

What is going on . 6. 5 to 7 is that target, many economists saying too high if china was to push ahead with supplyside reforms. 3 , also tough given that inflation is 1. 5 . More interestingly, the fiscal forcit blown out to account more lending, more barring, in order to hit the growth target. About thesetalking supplyside reforms, and also how he plans to get private enterprises to be more profitable, industries more traditionally restricted to stateowned enterprises.

We did not get details about how the implementation would go, how many layoffs. Up to 6 million workers could be laid off over the next three years in the state sector. We did not get any details or timing, so a little worrisome for some economists looking for more concrete efforts for beijing to address overcapacity issues, particularly steel and coal. The other side of the story is debt, and his convention of the money supply and fiscal deficit, the debt ceiling raise, adding to the debt to gdp ratio. Continuing to grow higher and higher. The finance minister saying chinas Government Debt<\/a> is 40 of gdp, relatively low compared to others. Rishaad just going to leave their. We have technical difficulties.

Data,anufacturing, jobs economic data, looking stronger, giving investors a bit more confidence, but also we have the idea of stimulus in japan.

There is speculation about how stimulushave to boost and hinting at different fiscal policies to try to boost the market and make results look at her at the end of the year, which ends at the end of the month. Rishaad thank you very much, indeed. Joining us there from tokyo. Weve also taken an indepth look at retail sales plunging 70 . It is on bloomberg. Com asia. Still ahead, and exclusive interview with the lincoln din executive. Inke all that and more. Npc has been told growth will be averted, but do they agree . We have been gauging the fuse in beijing engaging the views in beijing. Chinas National Peoples<\/a> congress behind me, some 3000 delegates gathered from top officials to representatives from the military, as well as cultural spheres, minority groups as well, descending on the Nations Capital<\/a> to discuss the next fiveyear plan. We spoke to some of the delegates to see what they hope to achieve. I hope china can build a byern Prosperous Society<\/a> 2020. I hope are people can live happily. Work should solidify our while maintaining reform and opening up, it hearing to the four cup brands of put by the comprehensivesur put forward by the party. Were looking to see how supplyside reforms will be carried out. I hope hong kong can make use of its advantages in caring out the 13th fiveyear plan. I hope to take this message back to hong kong. I really want to know how my hometown can take advantage of the policies under the 13th ive your plan. Says oneour next guest thing is absent from the fiveyear plan she joins us now and talks about china policy and risk. Great to see you. You are saying that the one thing missing is capital outflows. Yes. Rishaad im sure theres a lot more missing. One. At is the gaping that is the one the market is focused on. It is not a oneoff thing. The dismantling of Exchange Controls<\/a> that goes with globalization, china will face this issue. Global Market Forces<\/a> can no longer be controlled when all these barriers are lifted. There is little mention, Just Exchange<\/a> rates being kept stable and reasonable. Keep with the to promise of dismantling exchange , over twoight away years, its still guesswork. Rishaad they say its just getting on board with the special rights. Yes, but renminbi globalization, the ultimate goal , everybody using the renminbi, that cannot be done if you have the Exchange Controls<\/a> you have now. They have to face this issue. Rishaad capital is still flowing out though. Where the is, even controls have not been totally dismantled, so it is something they have to face. We are not being told how they will face it. Rishaad right, so why . More importantly, why is that money leaving the country . Money,cally the smart whether it is domestic money, foreign money, knows that china is about risks. You want to get as much reward as possible before you come around to the risks. Surprised evaluation of the renminbi suddenly triggered a change. Fear axis is shifting. Maybe it is time to go easy on the rewards and think about the risks. The money has been moving. At the same time, the worry that the Exchange Controls<\/a> might be back just overnight means that childreno have studying in the united states, cannot getvernight i my money out, what will happen to my kid. It is also a selffulfilling kind of prophecy. That is something that has to be faced. Rishaad in your latest its not you saying your money and less its outside of china. Yes. Overnight policies can change food a lot of things you take for granted may not be the same, so you are only sure of what is happening today. Thats how you manage, whether it is family money, corporate money. Rishaad what about this, another. That capital outflows are corporates dealing with dollardenominated debt. Yes, there is that. Called ahat might be response to the market environment, so if the dollar is not a strong, it will go the other way. Right now what you are facing is an issue of trust. Its more than my strategy today , andnaging dollar debt best way i can with treasuries. The problem now is that longerterm, can i trust that i will no longer be given the ,ption of taking my money out because i know i will always have the opportunity to bring it back in, so people are opting for the safe solution. Rishaad is this all painting a poor portrait of the state chinese economy . Only if you already have a very bullish view of the chinese economy. Slowing,that growth is the writing has been on the wall for a couple of years now. I think even the policymakers that growth ispt going to slow, but what i do find positive about this region is that they are now willing to be upfront with the problems instead of saying we can make 7 , some saying we might not make it, 6. 5 . They are preparing the nation for pain, for problems, so there wont be sudden shocks, and i think that is positive. Rishaad what is your overall take away from the fiveyear plan . Was it substantially in your substantive in your view . They have been formalizing things. The masterly presentation of bad news. That is it, isnt it . Thank you for coming in today.

Colleagues say he was a humble and modest man, though not a frequent checker of his own email accounts. Powered by over 2400 journalists and 150 bureaus around the world, this is bloomberg news. Right, going negative, maybe positive. Sayook at why economists the decision to take rates below zero seems to be working. Rishaad this is trending business. I am rishaad salamat. Negative rates, is a good policy . The central bank for Central Banks<\/a> says it is not clear how long. Of boj is a validation policy, negative rate territory. Switzerland at 75 basis points. The concern in the Banking Sector<\/a> is that this will eat into profitability. The longer you have negative rates, how low can they go, banksprofitability will be impacted. Says negative policy rates are transmitted to money mark rates the same way as positive rates, no real difference in how the markets perceive them. They say that banks seek to avoid negative rates by extending maturities are lending zeroskier counterparties, not the binding lower limit, so they can go further than zero, but there is an inherent risk in that as they look at the Global Economy<\/a> and centralbank policy. Rishaad what does this say about the inherent risks of having such a policy . The risks are the unknown, how long will these rates stay at zero or below . What is the impact to money markets in cash markets . The International Settlement<\/a> unknowntes that it is whether the transmission mechanisms will continue to operate as in the past, subject to tipping points, great uncertainty about individuals and institutions to get peopleant spending. That is why do have negative rates. The thing is if youre not getting a return, because that in turn drives money market rates down, people want capital of prescient Capital Appreciation<\/a> on the cash. Thats not going to create inflation, is it . That is one of the criticisms, nobody wins. Stocks falling in europe this year, reflecting the concerns stocks falling precipitously in europe this year, reflecting the concerns. Reductionou have the in Interest Rate<\/a> margins, making less money, perhaps more consolidation, and they dont want have a situation where banks are too big to fail. They could ultimately lead to consolidation, which could create that scenario they dont want. The banks are not compelled to lend, not support the real economy, profit goes down, regulation increases, the banks have to hold more in reserve to meet capital requirements. Rishaad it is a vicious cycle. Indeed, and nobody has the right answer. They say banks are doing the right thing. Rishaad for now. Who is in and who is out . Key officials to watch ahead of a key report party reshuffle. Of what the nikkei 225 is doing, and more. Rishaad lets have a look at top stories. Chinese stocks heading for their longest winning streak since october, following the last jump in the shanghai composite. Gains. Stocks leading sharp shares jumped after reports the ceo will resign after the foxconn takeover deal. They denied that report. On saturday, foxconn said no final date had been set for signing off on the deal, but both sides are working hard to reach agreement.

Rishaad looking back to our top story, china and fatah clique rejected fears of a hard landing. Leaders outlining targets in the latest fiveyear plan. Rule number one will be development, at least 6. 5 growth this year. With a look at the main takeaway , what was it this weekend . Were talking about more stimulus to keep the economy growing. It is her range. Normally it is a specific number which they almost always achieved. Progress, butme still 6. 5 minimum, a hefty growth rate relative to its peers. Thats where economists are saying that you are setting this high or for yourself, actively talking about spending more money, how does your reform story fit into that mix . Rishaad 6. 5 growth for the chinese economy is nearly the size of the turkish economy. Output was almost the size of the chinese economy last year. Take in thehave to latest fiveyear plan is are you going to fuel the growth through more leverage. Back and leverage as a drag on growth. Are they going to deliver on the painful supplyside reforms . Saying they will put millions of people out of work. Narrative hasthe been bolstered, that they are on this path to rebalancing. Rishaad thats the ultimate question, isnt it . What are people saying . If they are preaching this growth and sticking with targets to get 6. 5 growth, but not stepping up on the supply side of the economy, concrete, hard, specific terms as to what you will do there. That is a good way of putting it. That is acting as a drug on growth, Zombie Companies<\/a>. They are loaded with that. Until we see real evidence, we wont know that china is on a path to reform. The npc, ath more on rare opportunity to see how delegates, ministers handle themselves on the national stage. Tot could give us a hint winning new positions. Lets get more.

E we chose rishaad what do we know about president xi jinpings preferences . A tendency ton not promote from his own power base. With five officials worked president xi jinping before. That tells you about his promotional style, which might offer some clue. Rishaad what else to expect from this midterm Power Transition<\/a> . Aswho is going to emerge president xi jinpingss successor . It for he will accept him or will he choose his own person . Rishaad lets have a look at whats going on.

Given australias expensive housing market, but the concern is over corporate loans. Paul that is right. Mining, agricultural, and dairy are the sectors the most aggressive by the survey, which sees the mount of money to reach 5. 3 billion, the highest level in eight years. Debtdy provisions for bad have been rising around the big four banks, 2. 8 billion dollars combined, a 9. 3 increase on 2014. The survey also found that corporate growth is expected to decline among three of the big four banks by 4. 5 every year to 2018, and the cost of insuring debt has been rising steadily. Despite that rather gloomy picture, shares in all for big banks have been rising steadily today. Context, taking a beating over the past 12 months, always loved stocks on the asx 200, so investors seeing this is a good buying opportunity. Rishaad we heard on friday how the financial regulator is on a probe, now extending that to other banks.
