[Interview] CKGSB Associate Dean Mei Jianping: “Chinese Yuan will Depreciate by 5% within the Year”

April 17, 2014

Professor Mei Jianping, CKGSB Associate Dean, said that “unlike years past, the future Chinese government will aim to resolve accumulated inequality. The increased investments in railways in the Midwest region or tax exemptions for small business owners are examples that are related to the government’s effort to resolve inequality”. He emphasized that the reason the government rejects taking large-scale economic stimuli is that the product quality is more important than the pace of growth. With regards to the recent weakened Chinese Yuan, Professor Mei explained that “it is likely to be highly related to the government’s intention to support the economy by encouraging overseas export”. He further commented that “the Chinese Yuan depreciation would continue in the course of time” and “it will depreciate by up to 5% within this year”.
