China Outlook in 2022 After the “Two Sessions” – Navigating Challenges and Positioning for Success
While the market is still grappling with uncertainty around China’s regulatory reforms in the property and technology sectors last year, the recent geopolitical dynamics and pandemic outbreak have heightened concerns on the growth of the world’s second biggest economy. Monetary policy divergence in China and the US has also led to capital outflows from China in the recent months.
Join this webinar to hear from Becky Liu, Head of China Macro Strategist of Standard Chartered Bank, Zhixing Zhang, Senior Analyst from Control Risks, and Eugene Chen, Registered Foreign Lawyer from Allen & Overy for an interesting, interactive discussion on China’s latest macro and monetary policy outlook as well as regulatory and political landscape.
