Impact of the People’s Republic of China’s Growth Slowdown on Emerging Asia: A General Equilibrium Analysis
Zhai, Fan; Morgan, Peter | March 2016
Abstract
As an important global and regional economic power, the PRC’s growth slowdown may cause large spillover effects to its neighboring economies. Using a multi-sectoral global computable general equilibrium model, this paper quantitatively investigates the impacts of a growth slowdown in the PRC for emerging Asian economies through trade linkages. The results suggest that a growth slowdown of 1.6 percentage points in the PRC would bring about a growth deceleration of 0.26 percentage points in developing Asia as a whole. However, the impacts vary dramatically by economy within developing Asia, reflecting their difference in economic and trade structure.

The Rise of the “Redback” and the People’s Republic of China’s Capital Account Liberalization: An Empirical Analysis of the Determinants of Invoicing Currencies

The People’s Republic of China’s High-Tech Exports: Myth and Reality
Xing, Yuqing (Asian Development Bank Institute, 2012-04-25)Trade statistics portray the People's Republic of China (PRC) as the largest exporter of high-tech products. In this paper I will argue that the PRC’s leading position in high-tech exports is a myth created by outdated trade statistics which are inconsistent with trade based on global supply chains. Current trade statistics mistakenly credit entire values of assembled high-tech products to the PRC, ...Trade statistics portray the People's Republic of China (PRC) as the largest exporter of high-tech products.
