Sonali Jain-Chandra, the division chief and mission chief for China at the IMF’s Asia and Pacific department, and Steve Barnett, the IMF’s resident representative in China, presented analysis on China’s economic outlook following its departure from the zero-Covid strategy.

We thank Sonali and Steve, and experts from the public, private, and academic sectors who participated in what proved to be a fascinating event for lively, in-depth discussion and debate. This was a great way to kick-off the series!

The next event will be on the Indian economy, so keep an eye out.

The seminar series is organized by the IMF – Singapore Regional Training Institute and Resident Representative Office in Singapore.
