Chinese private corporate spending won't recover in 2012

But Morgan Stanley anticipates re-acceleration next year when government stimulus kicks in. 

It added that it sees little reason to fear aggressive credit supply in China.

"Just as in the region as a whole, slowing growth and demand has left capacity utilisation low in China (see Exhibit 12). In our view, that suggests that even if demand growth does recover (our economics team expects growth to begin to reaccelerate in 1Q13, driven by stimulus), private corporate spending will most likely only recover with a lag. Therefore, issuance from China should remain more muted than in 2010-11," Morgan Stanley said in its latest Asian Credit Strategy report.

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.
