Dear members and friends,

IsCham Beijing, together with BenCham, SwissCham andAustCham, are delighted to invite you to a business breakfast with focus on:

 

Assessing Global Economic Risks - 
Appraising Possible Impacts on China

   

A recent IMF report - ("China Economic Outlook", February 6, 2012) - suggested that a significant recession in Europe, caused by the current sovereign debt crises, could conceivably have a knock-on effect on China's economy - first on trade and subsequently on consumption - so severe as to slow China's growth rate by as much as 4 percentage points.  Of late, more and more news of this nature has appeared in the mainstream, causing great concern for business executives and policy makers alike.

 

But just how important are global developments - the European debt crisis, weak growth and policy deadlock in the US, structural risks in some emerging economies, etc. - to China's economic outlook? Is China's economy really so vulnerable to external shocks?

 

In this special briefing, Chief Economist of The Conference Board, Dr Bart van Ark, will dimension and prioritize key risks in the global economy, identify the linkages of these risks to China, and discuss the magnitude of potential impacts on China across various scenarios.

 

Speaker:

Bart van Ark, Chief Economist of The Conference Board (full biography).
