Kellee Tsai, Albert Park, Xun Wu and Ruben Enikolopov shared their insights on Curbing capitalism - How is Economic Policymaking in China Changing?, a webinar on 20 January 2022.

Recent policy and regulatory pronouncements point to significant changes in China’s business and economic landscape. While the issues that have motivated a more intrusive and interventionist Chinese state – data security and protection, social fairness and “common prosperity”, and excessive borrowing and speculation in real estate – mirror concerns elsewhere, they also raise wider questions about the trajectory of the Chinese economy and its ability to make the transition to a productivity-led, innovation-driven one. 

This event marked the launch of the CREC-IEMS Eurasia Business Dialogue, a collaborative platform jointly created by the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), the New Economic School (NES), and the Moscow School of Management-SKOLKOVO to study the economic prospects and links between China, Russia, and the rest of Eurasia.
