What are the structural issues that China needs to address to avoid further economic slowdown and the backlash of China Shock 2.0? Can China revive its private sector to make it the main growth engine again? If so, how? Is the U.S.-China relationship manageable over the long term without becoming even more adversarial? Join us at China Institute in America for an engaging session with MIT professor Yasheng Huang and renowned investor Isaac Souede on the profound economic transformations shaping China today.

We will explore the impact of recent U.S. tariff increases on Chinese imports and the potential for Washington to adopt an even tougher stance, including the possible repeal of China’s Permanent Normal Trade Relations and the implementation of U.S. outbound capital controls to China. This program will address the challenges facing China’s economy, with a focus on trade, technology, and geopolitical tensions.

Amidst declining net trade and foreign direct investment (FDI), a deceleration in infrastructure and capital investment, and persistently low consumer confidence levels, the question arises: What will fuel China’s future economic growth?

Notably, total factor productivity (TFP) growth in China has seen a significant slowdown in recent years. In this context, the dual influences of technology development and China’s aging population are pivotal factors shaping TFP growth and, consequently, GDP growth in China. All these factors have implications for China’s role in the global economy.

China Institute holds discussion with internationally-renowned economists Jeffrey Sachs, Yasheng Huang, Paul Sheard, and Tao Wang to draw analyses and insights following President Xi’s meeting with President Biden in San Francisco.
