GDP Growth Target Expected At 5% - Experts

CHINA PRESS

Authorities will set a relatively high target of about 5% GDP growth for 2024 to improve confidence and avoid weakening expectations, according to Huang Wentao, chief economist at CITIC Securities. However, China will likely achieve 4.8% growth this year as the economy bottoms out, according to Mao Zhenhua, chief economist at China Chengxin International. Zhang Wenkui, deputy director at the Development Research Center of the State Council believes the target achievable should officials implement proactive policies to expand demand. (Source: Yicai)
