CHINA: Country Wrap: Financial Support for New Industrialization

Aug-06 05:46
  • China has issued a set of guidelines to strengthen financial support for new industrialization, the country's central bank said on Tuesday. The guidelines, released by the People's Bank of China and six other government organs, state that a financial system for advanced, smart and green manufacturing should be largely in place by 2027.  As of 2027, manufacturing enterprises should see their effective credit demand met in full, with steady growth in both the volume and diversity of corporate bond issuance, alongside substantial progress in equity financing, per the guidelines.  (source XINHUA)
  • Southwest China's Xizang Autonomous Region has seen steady economic growth, with its regional gross domestic product (GDP) projected to surpass 300 billion yuan (about 42 billion U.S. dollars) this year, according to a press conference held on Tuesday.  The region's GDP reached 276.5 billion yuan in 2024, 155 times that of 1965 -- when the autonomous region was established -- reaching an average annual growth rate of 8.9 percent, Wang Junzheng, secretary of the Communist Party of China Xizang Autonomous Regional Committee, told the press conference on the 60th founding anniversary of Xizang Autonomous Region.  Wang noted that while it took the region 50 years to achieve its first 100 billion yuan in GDP, the second 100 billion yuan milestone was reached in just six years.  Since 2021, sustained efforts have further expanded Xizang's economy while improving the quality and efficiency of growth.  (source XINHUA)
