PBOC’s Wang: China’s GDP expected to grow 4.7% this year, below 5.5% target

China's economy is expected to grow 4.7% this year, Wang Yiming, an adviser to the monetary policy committee of the People's Bank of China (PBOC) said in a statement on Monday.

Wang said, China’s economy could see a strong rebound in the second half, “but difficulties remain for the 5.5% target”.

On Saturday, the central bank advisor said that the country could consider trying to boost the economy by introducing special national bonds that don’t count as financial deficits.
