The decision-making body said the country must ‘exert strength’ to maintain growth and avoid risks after meeting
China has vowed to maintain its macro policy support for the rest of 2025 as the country seeks to navigate economic risks – both external and internal – in the second half of the year and plan for its next half-decade of development.
After a meeting of the Communist Party’s 24-member Politburo – a major decision-making body led by President Xi Jinping – that ended Wednesday, the party’s upper echelon issued a statement encouraging action to support the economy.
“Macro policies must continue to exert strength and be stepped up when appropriate,” according to a readout released by state news agency Xinhua.
The Politburo said it would also “stabilise the fundamentals of foreign trade and investment” and support firms hit hard by recent shocks to the global economy.
