But you might argue that lots of STARTUPS have created jobs and lots of govt data shows lots of New Business Registrations since 2017
BOTH ARE TRUE but
During these yrs #Farmers, #Unorganised Biz & #SMEs LOST a total of #45-60 MILLION JOBS. So 1-2 Million Startup jobs is a drop

2008 PTSD VS THE GHOSTS OF THE 1970S. @darioperkins writes: While #SVB and its peers were uniquely exposed to COVID bubbles, this latest calamity has highlighted a broader problem in global banking – duration risk. At the start of the year, #centralbanks...

that could have a devasting impact on #SMEs, with powerful knock-on effects to aggregate demand. This will help the authorities to defeat inflation, but in a way that is uncontrolled and intractable, risking unnecessary hardship. Central banks are in a difficult position...
Looking forward to an august panel discussion on how the economy can be reshaped to help better deliver on our #NetZero and #LevellingUp agendas #NEFBriefing
.@Miatsf opens the panel by welcoming the progress that has been made to date in getting finance more interested in #NetZero & #LevellingUp, but there is still progress to be made - for example, low levels of investment in #SMEs despite them being drivers of growth #NEFBriefing
First speaker @JosephEStiglitz discusses how to use the credit system to accelerate a green transition. Says historically financial institutions have made "strong statements" about wanting a green portfolio, but critics fear this may just be "greenwashing" #NEFBriefing
I'm waking up at 5:45 tomorrow and gonna check this Webinar out.đź’Ş

Steve Reed MP is up, suggesting that local government and local people will lose the ability to object to planning applications (not true btw & nothing released yet).
An intervention sees Mr Reed cite 1million unbuilt homes. (he's wrong).

Financial development in China is ushering in a historical period of opportunities, said Fan Yifei, Deputy Governor of the PBOC, at the 2nd Bund Summit: 1/8
cf40.com/en/news_detail…
He explained in the following 4 perspectives:
cf40.com/en/news_detail…
He explained in the following 4 perspectives:
1. Dual circulation calls for high-quality financial development. The key to a smooth domestic economic cycle is a smooth supply-demand circulation and the release of internal forces. 2/8
The financial industry needs thorough digitization and independent innovation, with technologies driving qualitative growth, so as to help enterprises, particularly #SMEs, better connect to the domestic economic cycle. 3/8
10 measures proposed by Zhang Xiaohui, former assistant governor of the #PBC, to promote the #dualcirculation in financial services: mp.weixin.qq.com/s/tErN3tDdScZR…
1. Properly position the financial sector against the new backdrop featuring “dual circulation”. China’s financial system needs to step up a new wave of upgrade and reform. It should give direct #financing a bigger play based on technological innovations.
2. Financial supply-side structural reform shall continue to play a core role. China needs to improve twin-pillar regulatory framework (monetary¯oprudential policies) and make monetary policies more flexible; develop multi-tier capital market; boost #RMB internationalization.
China recently cut the upper limit on private lending interest rates protected by law,capping it at four times China’s one-year LPR.The efforts to lower maximum legal private lending interest rates need to respect market rules,said @YipingHuangPKU1: new.cf40.org.cn/uploads/202009… 1/5
Lowering the judicially protected ceiling would help drive down the interest rate in private lending and is in line with the policy goal of reducing costs of social financing. However, the ceiling should not be lowered by too much or too fast. 2/5
Efforts to adjust the cap on the interest rates need to strike a balance between lowering financing costs for SMEs and energizing private lending. At the end of the day, a basic condition for the financial system to work soundly is market-based risk pricing. 3/5
China’s industrial sector will likely see a surge as it is recovering more quickly than service sector. Three signs point to its likely occurrence, according to Xu Qiyuan:
new.cf40.org.cn/uploads/202008… 1/5
new.cf40.org.cn/uploads/202008… 1/5
Sign â… : The recovery of industrial production has been obviously better than that of service sector overall 2/5
Sign II: The performance of #SMEs shows that recovery of the industrial sector surpasses that of the service sector 3/5
The Chinese economy has significantly picked up, but different sectors have shown different performances: exports see stronger growth than domestic demands, production recovers better than demands, and the second industry is doing better than the tertiary industry...1/7
With the pandemic still posing risks, it is very likely that China’s net export will fall again in 2H20, while consumers are expected to remain cautious given the risk of virus striking back and income taking blows, future economic growth face mounting uncertainties...2/7
Three basic judgements on #China's macroeconomic data in Q2 by Gao Shanwen:
1. The industrial sector has basically recovered from the #pandemic's wounds, and economic activities have stabilized at a bit lower than the pre-pandemic level...1/4
1. The industrial sector has basically recovered from the #pandemic's wounds, and economic activities have stabilized at a bit lower than the pre-pandemic level...1/4
2. #SMEs still face difficulties in resuming their normal activities, while the #unemployment pressure sustains. The unemployment situation is especially worrisome in low-end labor-intensive sectors...2/4
Among the proofs are the negative yoy growth in the social retailing sales by businesses under designated scale, sluggish rebound in the consumer-oriented service sector, and the sharp fall in the growth rate of average monthly #income of rural migrant workers in Q2...3/4
#China stocks roar on, with #CSI300 up ~20% in little more than a week as (official) #margin debt climbs Y150bln to touch Y1.3 trillion - levels only seen in the peak months of 2015's madness.

4 risks worth special attention in #China’s #economy and financial sector currently, said Liu Yuanchun:
1. Growing bad debts have placed greater strains on the capital replenishments of small and mid-sized financial institutions.

2. The budgets of local governments are under huge pressure due to the pandemic, adding to the risks of ballooning government debts and implicit debts.
3. The macro leverage ratio may swell in the foreseeable future, so China needs to think about how to cushion its negative impacts and handle the consequent spike in the pressure to repay principals and interests.
Personal #tradeXpresso thread: Today is a special day, as it’s been more than 10 years since I’m doing my current job. Before turning a professional page, it’s time to look back at the difference the #ChiefEconomist team and I made in @Trade_EU. At least 10 things came to mind:
1. #SMEs were not seen as important. Now they are key for @Trade_EU! econpapers.repec.org/paper/risdgtce…
2. #Services trade data didn’t have #ModesOfSupply! Now they do! Thanks to @EU_Eurostat @wto @RBKoopman @riina_kerner trade.ec.europa.eu/doclib/docs/20…
#Thailand #PM @prayutofficial in televised speech insists he won't hasten to allow tourists back yet as nation needs to be absolutely sure in controlling virus 1st. Says must have balanced approach to tackling economic & health impact. Many have called for more easing of measures
#China’s economic recovery is about to break the ice. As external shocks loom large, it’s more urgent than ever for China to boost its demands with all means to resume and stabilize its economic cycle.

mp.weixin.qq.com/s/FSDA2NxawhgH…
According to statistics for April, despite pickup in #demand side performance, it’s still 1.7-2.7% lower than the resumption of the #supply side, so the demand gap is evidently widening.
Besides, the further decline in #price parameter shows that insufficient demand is becoming more of a problem and the biggest obstacle to resuming economic activities.
1/4 Ministry of Finance and #SBP introduce risk-sharing mechanism to support bank lending to #SMEs and small businesses to avail SBP’s Refinance Facility to Support Employment. For details: sbp.org.pk/press/2020/Pr-…
2/4 Federal Government allocates Rs30 billion under a credit risk sharing facility for the banks spread over four years to share the burden of losses due to any bad loans in future.
3/4 Under this risk sharing arrangement, Federal Government will bear 40% first loss on principal portion of disbursed loan portfolio of the banks.
