The Long Shadow of a Fiscal Expansion Chong-En Bai, Chang-Tai Hsieh, and Zheng Michael Song NBER Working Paper No. 22801 November 2016 JEL No. E0 ABSTRACT In 2009 and 2010, China undertook a 4 trillion Yuan fiscal stimulus, roughly equivalent to 12 percent of annual GDP. The "fiscal" stimulus was largely financed by off-balance sheet companies (local financing vehicles) that borrowed and spent on behalf of local governments. The off-balance sheet financial institutions continued to grow after the stimulus program ended at the end of 2010. After the end of the stimulus program, spending by these off-balance sheet companies accounted for roughly 10% of GDP each year, with an increasing share used for what are essentially private commercial projects.

  • Bellagio Housing Declaration
    More than Shelter: Housing as an Instrument of Economic and Social Development The Bellagio Housing Conference organized by the Joint Center for Housing Studies of Harvard University supported by the Rockefeller Foundation May 2005 BELLAGIO HOUSING DECLARATION We, the participants in the Bellagio Housing Conference, having come from five countries — Kenya, Mexico, South Africa, Thailand and the USA—together affirm that sound, sanitary and affordable housing for all is central to the wellbeing of nations. Housing is indeed more than shelter: it is a powerful engine that creates opportunity and economic growth. We affirm the following principles: • Housing as a sustained national priority: Housing is a long term process that requires a stable policy framework and demands national priority attention. • Housing as an engine of social and economic development: Housing brings significant benefits in terms of employment creation, domestic capital mobilization and social wellbeing in the face of the major challenges posed by population growth and urbanization. • Housing as an element of wealth: Equity in housing is a basic source of personal and family wealth and can reduce asset poverty. Owning a home is a powerful incentive to save, work harder and commit to strengthening the community. • Housing as connected markets: Well functioning primary and secondary housing markets should provide diverse housing opportunities and secure tenure forms for all. Reducing the gap between low income affordability and the cost of housing requires access to financial instruments that make demand effective. It also requires efforts on the supply-side to reduce the cost of land, basic infrastructure and housing construction. • Housing and government: Government must play an active and appropriate role in enabling, regulating, facilitating and supporting healthy housing markets and housing finance systems.

In a complex and volatile global market environ- ment, we stayed true to our core values, pursued long-term investments based on commercial considerations and achieved good returns for our shareholder through effective risk management and active adjustment of our asset alloca- tion and portfolio structure. I am pleased to share with you the 2012 Annual Report. In 2012, global financial markets remained in thrall to continued high risks, low yields and high volatility, hall- marks of the post-crisis era. In the first half of 2012, fiscal retrenchment in the United States and deepening crisis in Europe posed strong headwinds, slowing the global economic recovery and prolonging turbulence in financial markets. In the third quarter, the new round of Quantitative Easing launched by the US Federal Reserve, and the Outright Monetary Transactions undertaken by the European Central Bank, helped bolster the global recovery, mitigate tail risks and lift asset prices.

  • Xi's System, Xi's Men: After the March 2018 National People's Congress
    Xi’s System, Xi’s Men: After the March 2018 National People’s Congress Barry Naughton The National People’s Congress meeting in March launched a significant administrative reorganization and approved the appointment of a new generation of economic technocrats. The technocrats are skilled and generally support market-oriented reforms. The reorganization is generally market-friendly, but its main purpose is to create a more disciplined and accountable administration to serve as an instrument for Xi Jinping. Last year, after the 19th Communist Party Conference in October, Xi Jinping laid out a general economic program for the next three years. This March, at the 13th session of the National People’s Congress, Xi introduced significant changes in the administrative structure and fleshed out the personnel assignments that will prevail for the next few years. These changes demonstrate once again how firmly Xi is in control of economic policy and personnel. Even if Xi had not also changed the constitution to eliminate term limits for the president (himself) and vice-president, these changes would be enough to demonstrates Xi’s power and ruling style. The policy framework laid out at the end of 2017 allows space for renewed system reforms. As explained in the previous contribution to CLM, successful economic management in 2017 has permitted Xi to prefer “high quality” growth over “high speed” growth, and in particular to launch “three battles”: reducing financial risk; eliminating poverty; and improving the environment.1 While deepening economic conflicts with the United States have certainly complicated the policy environment, until now the Xi administration has stuck to this basic policy orientation.
