China Investors Must Know: Labor Shift & Structural Inflation


Russell Napier
Consultant, CLSA

China Business Committee and Financial Services Committee

 

Structural inflation is setting a new beat in China. It's clear that China's growth will increasingly rely on domestic consumption, not exports. And as it's reallocation of labor slows, global inflationary pressure prevails.

What do the investors need to know about working with recent labor shift, inflation and falling asset valuations?

During the luncheon meeting, Russell Napier, CLSA's experienced consultant, will give insights and updates on the recent labor shift in China and its impact on investment. The following key subjects will be explored in great details:

  • Evaporation of cheap labor force
  • Shrinking young and mobile labor force
  • State-owned enterprises (SOE) recent expansion
