As major imbalances and risks have accumulated in the Chinese economy in recent years, the professional community is still divided on the question of whether the central government will succeed in soft landing and set the economy on a more balanced and sustainable growth path, or whether an abrupt adjustment is already unavoidable, and it is only the time and severity of the consequences of an economic decline that are questionable. In this essay, we present the policies that ensure sustainable growth, the risks that complicate implementation and the economic policy measures aiming to mitigate such risks.
