China to Launch New Fiscal Support Measures Amid Economic Slowdown
China plans to introduce new fiscal and financial policies in the second half of the year to support economic growth, which has slowed below the government's target. Vice Finance Minister Liao Min highlighted expanded interest rate subsidies for small businesses and consumers, with over 20 trillion yuan in new lending supported so far this year. Despite fiscal strains, the government aims to maintain spending intensity using its remaining bond quota and seeks a stronger fiscal system in its next economic plan through 2030.
