Introduction to the bluebook

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the world economy has suffered a historic recession, but China has achieved success in epidemic prevention and control, and its socioeconomic development has recovered. The bluebook analyzes China’s macroeconomic situation and provides policy suggestions. It covers fiscal and taxation analysis; monetary policy and the financial market; the industrial economy and high-quality development; investment, consumption, and foreign trade; employment and income distribution. The bluebook forecasts the Chinese economy will grow 2.2% in 2020 and about 7.8% in 2021, but the prediction may be subject to adjustment due to unexpected changes in the COVID-19 epidemic.
