Shanghai party secretary Chen Jining met Sanofi global CEO Ge Lihe and HSBC chair Nie Zhiheng. He urged Sanofi to leverage Shanghai’s strengths in basic research, talent, market scale and policy support to increase local innovative R&D, place more innovation and global-simultaneous development projects in Shanghai, and deepen cooperation with domestic biotech firms to strengthen the city’s pharmaceutical ecosystem. He asked HSBC to use its global network and expertise to deepen cooperation on tech finance, green finance, urban renewal, cross-border and offshore finance, and support firms’ outbound activity, and to provide input as Shanghai refines a regulatory framework suited to an international financial centre.

Eurozone private sector contracted for a third consecutive month in June but the pace of decline eased, with S&P Global Market Intelligence's preliminary composite PMI rising to 49.5 from 48.5 in May, a three-month high. S&P Global Market Intelligence chief business economist Chris Williamson said the PMI suggests the economy "is showing enough resilience to largely avoid recession" and points to GDP being broadly flat in Q2. New orders fell for a fourth month but the drop moderated; manufacturing new orders edged up slightly while services demand remained weak and a small rebound in leisure and tourism did not offset the broader decline in new business. Refinitiv's early-June poll forecast 0.1% growth for the quarter.
