Thriving capital markets are central to China's growth

Article Abstract:

Senior Economist Pu Yonghao at Hong Kong-based Nomura International makes an argument for a stronger capital market in China. His initiatives include the privatization of state-owned industries, the creation of a debt market through the issuance of public bonds, and the implementation of stable credt rating regulations. Based on interest rates, an active debt market could help stabilize the Chinese economy as a whole. Several of China's economic statistics, such as total bank lending and gross domestic product, are discussed.

Think twice about China

Article Abstract:

Figures released by the national statistic office of China show the country's gross domestic product rose 8.1% for the first quarter of 2001, but analysts believe these numbers are severely exaggerated. A study by PricewaterhouseCoopers ranking China last of 35 countries in the Opacity Index, which considers factors such as clarity of macroeconomic data and policies, may give investors a reason to think twice before moving funds to China.
