The economic and financial environment is becoming increasingly complex, and the banking sector is facing more and more pressure for operation and risk control. This paper, by analyzing the annual reports of 26 listed banks in China in 2015, it reveals the main problems and challenges faced by the listed banks respectively from the perspective of asset-to-liability ratios and structure, income and earnings structure and risk resistance ability. It points out that apart from bad loans, the banking sector is facing the potential risks of credit assets relating to special-mentioned loans ratio, overdue loans balance and ratio, the growth rate of overdue loans, overdue performing loans ratio, and overdue credit period and structure. At the same time, it analyzes the positive measures taken by listed banks such as adjusting the business model, promoting the reform of multidivisional structure (M-form) and the reform of subsidiary system and accelerating the development of Internet banking.
