Abstract:
An outstanding feature of the current world economy is the internal imbalance of the economic structure in the developed entities, which is persisted and expanded due to the global trade imbalance. After the global financial crisis, China’s foreign exchange reserves accounted for 1/3 of world’s total, and 1/2 of China’s GDP. Huge risk exists, when such amount of foreign reserves is exposed to turbulent international financial market.
On May 30th, 2013, the Brookings-Tsinghua Center for Public policy will host a public event, featuring Dr. Yu Qiao, nonresident senior fellow of the Brookings-Tsinghua Center, to address the aforementioned issues of China’s foreign currency reserves and its overseas investment. Dr. Yu’s monograph A Study on the External Environment of Chinese Investments in the United States and his newly-released book China’s Foreign Reserves and Overseas Investment will also be presented at the event.
After the program, speakers will take audience questions. Working language of this event will be Chinese.
