The latest CF40 quarterly report led by Dr. Zhang Bin, CF40 Senior Fellow and Deputy Director of the Institute of World Economics and Politics at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, points out several major challenges facing the Chinese economy in the second half of the year:
1) pandemic-induced uncertainties; 2) weakening of consumption, real estate and export at the same time; 3) enlarging gap between fiscal revenue and expenditure of local governments; 4) possibilities of new risk events; and 5) further escalation of global geopolitical conflicts.
Against this backdrop, while it remains a priority to implement aggregate target and policy tools aimed at expanding total demand in order to achieve a decent annual growth, the report reminds that specific policy tools would also be necessary to address structural problems.
