China's Economy in the Trump 2.0 Era
We invite you to attend our CEIBS Global EMBA Master Class on China's Economy in the Trump 2.0 Era on January 19, 2025 at the CEIBS Shanghai campus.
About this event
China’s economic growth has slowed down in the past fifteen years due to the disappearance of the demographic dividend, the diminishing return to capital investment, and the falling of productivity growth. On top of that, China faces an increasingly harsh international environment and a lasting depressive mood resulting from the pandemic years. With Donald Trump now reelected as US president, how will China’s economy perform? In this lecture, Professor Xu Bin will identify the constraints faced by China’s policymakers, explain what kind of stimulus policies might be implemented in 2025, and offer his analysis of China’s “dual transition” (supply-side and demand-side) in the medium-term and his perspective on China’s economic status in the long run.
