Zusammenfassung: | In the aftermath of the global financial
crisis, policymakers around the world are focusing once
again on government debt sustainability. In China,
subnational government debt is an important part of total
government debt, and therefore deserves the attention that
policymakers have paid to the topic. Subnational debt has
played an important role in financing China’s impressive
infrastructure that is the envy of the world. And
subnational debt was instrumental in the economic stimulus
that China so effectively staged after the global financial
crisis, through which China maintained high levels of
economic activity. This e-book starts with a summary and
presentation of the Chinese perspective on this subject of
subnational debt in session one. Session two introduced some
international cases which are highly relevant to the current
situation in China. Session three brought these
international case studies and experts’ perspectives
together to arrive at syntheses that narrowed down key
issues which China needs to consider going forward in
subnational debt management and restructuring. The
roundtable discussion among international and Chinese
experts on the way forward for China in session four
provided an illuminating discussion of this issue. The
author hope that this will inform specific policies that
will be formulated to help local governments in China manage
their subnational debts. |
