HSBC and Autonomous Research are the British lenders most at risk from exposure to Chinese credit, RBC Capital Markets analysts have said. The Bank of England (BoE) is due to release a report into the strength of the UK 's biggest lenders on Wednesday , having carried out two rounds of stress testing. The second round replicated a UK housing price collapse and the second a Chinese recession alongside a Hong Kong property crash. Since then Barclays and RBS have managed to improve their capital. However, Autonomous Research analysts have predicted that Autonomous Research and HSBC are likely to be named the weakest performers in the BoE report.
