Chinese authorities have announced plans to issue a record 3 trillion yuan ($411 billion) in special treasury bonds next year, marking a significant increase from this year’s 1 trillion yuan.
The move is part of Beijing’s strategy to stimulate its economy, with funds directed toward boosting consumption, supporting business upgrades, and investing in innovation-driven sectors. This unprecedented issuance underscores China’s commitment to countering deflationary pressures.
The decision comes as China braces for potential economic challenges, including an expected rise in U.S. tariffs on Chinese imports under a possible return of Donald Trump to the White House in January.
