"Domestic Demand System"

Date: December 10, 2024

Event: Supported Webinar

Time: 09:00-09:45 am (DK) / 03:00-03:45 pm (CN)

renewable-energy

This webinar is part of the webinar series 'Staying in Dialogue with China'. The series will bring you six webinars with distinguished China-based experts, concentrated between April and October 2024.

'Staying in Dialogue with China' is organized and hosted by China Macro Group (CMG), with Caixin Global as Anchor Partner, in cooperation with the China Europe International Business School (CEIBS), Chinaforum Bayern, Swissmem, the Swiss Chinese Chamber of Commerce (SCCC), the Danish-Chinese Business Forum (DCBF), SwissCham China, the Stein  am Rhein Symposium (stars), and the Sweden-China Trade Council (SCTC).

In the sixth and last session of the 2024 webinar series "Staying in Dialogue with China", Markus Hermann, Co-Founder and Managing Director, China Macro Group (CMG) will be talking to Prof. Xu Qiyuan, Deputy Director, Institute of Wolrd Economics and Politics (IWEP) at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS), about China's "Domestic Demand System" as the sixth structural transition as per CMG's conceptual framework of China's political economy.

The topic of “domestic demand system” refers to China’s attempt to pivot to more consumption-oriented economic growth, while reducing its reliance on fixed asset investments and the trade surplus – a legacy from Beijing’s export-oriented growth model. China should rely more on domestic demand to drive economic growth, thus, in a state of an overall elevated level of marketization, household consumption should shape supply of services and production more strongly.

Against the backdrop of the Covid pandemic, it remained unclear how much policy emphasis would be placed on the building of “domestic demand system”. In China’s short-term policy goals over the past five years, the “demand side” received primary policy focus only once, during the Central Economic Work Conference (CEWC) in 2022, whereas the three preceding years as well as the 2023 CEWC all consistently prioritized the “supply side”, or the goal of achieving the so-called “modernized industrial system” over the “demand side”.

Notably, the new reform plan released during the latest Third Plenum also placed “domestic demand system” at a strategically lower position than the supply side. Nonetheless, it should not be ignored that the State Council published a comprehensive blueprint for “Domestic Demand Expansion Strategy” in December 2022, unifying diverse policy areas ranging from trade, to digital and urbanization into one overarching framework.

The bottom-line is that among the six structural transitions, CMG’s assessment concludes that the “domestic demand system” has seen comparatively least progress compared to the 18th Central Committee’s Third Plenum in 2013, as evidenced by the still very low household consumption as share of GDP of about 40% only.

Key questions CMG want to discuss with Prof. Xu in this coming webinar include:

  • What exactly is a "domestic demand system" in the thinking of Chinese policymakers?
  • How are "supply" vs "demand" side each seen strategically by the Chinese leadership?
  • Are there structural levers or quick-wins to unleash more domestic demand to urgently and effectively revitalize the economy?
  • What is the role of China's social security system to help unleash the domestic demand?
  • What is the link between demand boost and "common prosperity"?

Agriculture & Fisheries

Sino-Danish Government-to- Government Cooperation within Food, Agriculture & Fisheries, Environment & Water and Sustainable Urban Development

Date: May 11, 2021

Time: 09:00

Event: Webinar


The area of food, agriculture & fisheries has traditionally been highly regulated and governed by government policies and trade barriers. In order to promote the cooperation in these areas between China and Denmark and overcome the barriers many protocols and agreements have been signed between China and Denmark. To this comes the continuous seeking of common areas where China and Denmark can cooperate in order to create the basis for the introduction of Danish solutions for a more sustainable, safe and efficient food production. To enhance this cooperation the SSC-project on Food and Agriculture was introduced 5 years ago and is now in its second phase. It has two tracks: One on improving food safety and another on resource efficiency and food loss and waste.

Within the policy areas of environment, water and sustainable urban development the goal of the Sino-Danish government cooperation has been to create Chinese interest for the Danish solutions and also to contribute to the green development of the environment in China. The areas are also governed by cooperation agreements between the Danish Ministry of Environment and the Chinese Ministry for Environment (MEE) and Ministry of Water Resources (MWR). The Sector cooperation on environment has focus on water resource management and wastewater management working particularly with the provincial level in Hebei, Fujian, Beijing and Jiangsu. The sector cooperation on Sustainable Urban Development is carried out between Beijing and Copenhagen and focuses on circular construction, climate change adaptation, waste water management, and energy efficiency in existing buildings.

Participants will be introduced to the government cooperation with the two areas, the various programme activities and hear how the business community can play a role and benefit from the cooperation.
