SAFE deputy director Li Bin said at a State Council Information Office briefing
that China’s balance of payments is likely to remain broadly balanced going
forward. Authorities will expand domestic demand — boosting consumption and
raising effective investment — while promoting balanced import‑export growth and
supporting the current‑account surplus at a reasonable, balanced level over the
medium‑to‑long term. China will also steadily widen institutional opening and
investment cooperation, and the scale of its outward assets will increase
gradually.
