Because the investment would have to be approved by the regulator, and Americans would likely go very paranoid about a People’s Republic of China bank buying up American banks. Also the same risk that makes the current banks unwilling to lend in would be there.
A new bank set up needs approval also. Very hard to do.

Several years ago I supervised a couple dozen temporary workers, mostly African-American college students, working on a data collection project in south Georgia (U.S.) . Their paychecks were written on the San Francisco branch of the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation of California and for the first few weeks we were always getting calls from local stores when they tried to cash them.
