Thanks to substantial foreign direct investment, its manufacturing sector is closely integrated into cross-border production networks, and foreign-owned firms now account for most of industrial exports. Banking sector indicators are positive, and bank lending-led by credit to households-continue to rebound. Past restructuring and improved risk management have also strengthened banks.
