C. Post-Tsunami Scenario for ‘developed’ Countries
Slow down in overall economic growth, a 2-3 year recession – the worst record since the Second World War.
Major contraction of the financial sector with increased tightness and conservatism both in its operation and regulation, leading to increase costs and a clamp on credit even after the initial shock due to de-leverage induced by the Tsunami.
Devaluation in both financial and real assets will tighten credit further and impact negatively on production and consumption. The result is an overall shrinkage of market demand.
To protect local jobs, countries may tilt towards trade protectionism.
High-tech, high value added and knowledge intensive industries will be the likely bright spot in developed economies. Hence, global competition in such products will be very keen.
D. China’s response to the “Financial Tsunami”
step up pace of development of the financial sector, especially in internationalization of the Renminbi, such that China’s lagging financial sector may catch up with its real economy. Yet, overall progress will contingent on the lapse of the Financial Tsunami and cycles of the global economy.
stimulate and develop local demand guided by the quest for environmental and economically sustainable growth.
revamp past convention of export-led growth by “walking on two legs”, i.e. future growth will be propelled by the twin engines of exports and domestic market demand.
deepen technology and increase value-added of conventional industries sectors.
aim for a balanced economy in line with the low skill and large size of China’s working population.
