China's economic growth poised to hit 6.9% in Q2

Thanks to strong manufacturing and services sector expansion.

China's economic growth continues to climb up as it posted a 6.9% economic growth for Q2 this year.

According to a report from Deutsche Bank Wealth Management, the rate can be attributed to secondary and tertiary industry growth, especially in the manufacturing and services sector expansion.

Industrial production also grew by 7.6% while retail sale grew by 11% this year.

Exports climbed by 11.3% YoY in June, thanks to domestic and external demand with a healthy amount coming from the US and Europe.

However, new yuan loans continued to remain high at $227.8b in June and grew 5.9% in the first half of the year.

Small-cap stocks also declined sharply, compelling the People's Bank of China to provide a liquidity injection to manage the fall.

Deutsche Bank global CIO Christian Nolting said, "We also note that large- and mid-cap stocks remain resilient in the light of the stock market correction on July 17. This suggests investor confidence in the larger corporates."

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
