Barslund, Mikkel and Alcidi, Cinzia. (2015) China’s slowdown: When the dragon catches the flu, Europe sneezes. CEPS Commentary, 25 September 2015. [Policy Paper]
Abstract
Notwithstanding the erratic stock market responses around the world, this CEPS Commentary argues that while a slowdown of the world’s second-largest economy may not be good news for Europe, its effects will not be as bad as headlines would have us believe. In the short term, it finds that the biggest risks from the Chinese slowdown may be political, stemming from a weakening of the Renminbi, either from actions taken by China’s central bank and/or from large capital outflows.
