Webinar: "Towards a new Chinese economy? Macroeconomic perspectives in the post-COVID-19 world"

The Flanders-China Chamber of Commerce is delighted to invite you to a webinar on the very important subject of "Towards a new Chinese economy? Macroeconomic perspectives in the post-COVID-19 world". This webinar will take place on September 3, 2020, at 10 am CEST.

The Chinese economy recovered remarkably fast from the unprecedented COVID-19 shock. This performance results from a mix of macroeconomic policies and precautionary fiscal measures. China is now preparing for a different post-COVID-19 global economy in which it will play a pivotal role. At the same time, the relative rise of China in the global economy has triggered new international confrontations. In this seminar, we will discuss recent macroeconomic developments, the economic outlook, recent policy developments and structural changes in the Chinese economy, as well as their implications for global business.
