The New Renminbi Reality

In a shifting political landscape, China has taken on the role as global champion of free trade and open economies – a situation inconceivable in previous years.

In a shifting political landscape, China has taken on the role as global champion of free trade and open economies – a situation inconceivable in previous years. Coupled with this external environment, China at home is facing an economic “new normal” characterized by slower growth, capital outflows, a depreciating currency that’s depleted FX reserves and mounting levels of debt that’s forcing the central bank to tighten borrowing costs.

In this new reality, Bloomberg will gather some of China’s market moving business leaders and money managers to tackle the most complex issues head-on, and help senior investors identify Chinese opportunities.
