1 Thomas Shik Acting Chief Economist The 2017 Outlook The mainland China economy expanded by an annual rate of 6.8% in the fourth quarter of 2016, up from 6.7% in the third quarter, reflecting an uptick in retail sales growth in the November December period. As deleveraging and destocking on the Mainland continues, risks to economic growth remain on the downside. However, with the modest improvement in the outlook for major advanced economies and the Chinese government s actions to prepare for future economic uncertainties, there is still potential for the Mainland to remain on a stable growth trajectory in Our expectation is for the Mainland economy to grow by 6.7% this year. Jan/Feb 2017
2 China GDP grows 6.8% in Q Mainland China s gross domestic product (GDP) rose by an annual rate of 6.8% in the fourth quarter of last year, an improvement on the previous quarter and the consensus forecast of 6.7% (Exhibit 1). The fourth-quarter growth was the highest in a year, apparently driven by stronger consumption growth. Retail sales value jumped 10.9% in December, the highest in a year, after growth of 10.8% in November (Exhibit 2). Over the course of 2016, however, retail sales remained steady, moving in a tight range between 10% and 11%. Exhibit 1: GDP Growth Exhibit 2: Retail Sales Growth For the whole of 2016, GDP growth was 6.7%, down from 6.9% in 2015, due in large part to slower growth in investment, which accounts for about 45% of the Mainland economy. Fixed-asset investment (FAI) growth eased to a multi-year low of 8.1% last year from 10% a year before. With economic deleveraging taking place on the Mainland, risks to the economy s growth remain on the downside. As we have highlighted in past issues of China Economic Monthly, rapid credit growth in previous years has created problems with over-investment, which, in turn, has led to industrial over-capacity. The resulting deleveraging and destocking process should therefore lead to slower investment and weaker economic growth in the short-to-medium term. Jan/Feb
3 That said, the more favourable external environment that has resulted from steps taken by major central banks around the world to act against economic and financial market risks should help support the Mainland s growth this year. Eurozone growth has stabilised and US growth has accelerated over recent months. Together with growing optimism about the outlook for the international economy more generally, this should benefit the Mainland s trade and manufacturing activity. In addition, experience from 2016 suggests that, if necessary, the Chinese government may still be able to take measures such as boosting public investment to stabilise the economy in the short term (Exhibits 3 & 4). Against this backdrop, our expectation is for the Mainland economy to grow by 6.7% this year, similar to the pace seen in 2016 (Exhibit 5). Exhibit 3: General Government Budget (annually) Exhibit 4: Fixed-asset Investment Growth We expect the People s Bank of China (PBOC) to keep monetary policy on hold over the coming year. Although there have been signs of economic stabilisation, followed by some pick-up in consumer price inflation, the downside risks to growth should prevent the PBOC from increasing its benchmark interest rates. Further policy easing may also lead to fresh concerns over the renminbi. We therefore expect the PBOC to maintain the 1-year lending rate and the required reserve ratio at 4.35% and 17% respectively.
