Event Summary
The Chinese authorities have recently imposed more stringent regulations on industries such as fintech, private-sector education, and gaming and have emphasized an agenda of shared prosperity in their political discourse. These developments have raised questions in the global investor community about the country's general economic orientation, after more than four decades of reform and opening up that started in 1978. Is China turning away from relying on private investors, including foreign ones, to finance growth and innovation?
