Tips

grammar
Adding the suffix (xìng) to a noun like 系统 'system' turns it into the adjective / quality 'systematic / systemic' — a hugely productive pattern: 灵活性 'flexibility', 稳定性 'stability', 重要性 'importance'. Often written 系统性 before the noun it modifies.
usage
Common in news, finance, and academic writing — 系统性风险 'systemic risk', 系统性问题 'systemic problem', 系统性研究 'systematic research'. The English distinction between 'systematic' (methodical) and 'systemic' (affecting an entire system) is collapsed into one Chinese word; context disambiguates.
