China's dirty growth secret

China’s GDP growth has slowed nine of the last 10 quarters, and one reason behind it may come as a surprise; anti-pollution measures. According to Saxo Bank’s Head of Macro Mads Koefoed, new policies implemented by the Chinese Government mean that some companies are unable to proceed with business as usual.

Mads says that the Chinese economy may still be solid thanks to regional Government programmes, which help boost the economy on a local level. But he predicts that towards the end of this decade it will reach below 5%, and here he explains why.
