The China Dashboard: Tracking China’s Economic Reform Program

Join us for a discussion — just days ahead of China’s 19th Party Congress — on China’s economic reforms, its evolving economic agenda, and the ensuing global implications.

This event serve as the sneak preview of an Asia Society Policy Institute-Rhodium Group interactive online dashboard to assess the ongoing impact of economic reforms on Chinese growth potential. This new project features a web tool allowing readers to explore progress-indicators on financial system reform, trade, cross-border investment, state enterprise reform, and fiscal realignment and other key areas, which those in business and policy can use to gauge China’s convergence — or divergence — from its pledge to move more decisively toward market economy foundations.
