However, China's fate depends very much on that of the global economy over the coming year – and a big shock in one of the world's major economies could revive fears of a hard landing once again. China's fragile shadow banking system is also still a major concern.

Guy Stear and Wei Yao of Société Générale put together an excellent presentation examining how a China hard landing could come about and the impact it would have on a range of asset classes, as well as clients' views on the hard landing scenario.

Note: Thanks to Société Générale for allowing us to feature this presentation.
