Is China’s economic miracle nearing its end? | Mint Primer | Mint

China's economy is facing challenges due to authoritarian policies, lockdowns, and economic shifts. GDP growth, while at 6.3%, is losing momentum, and youth unemployment is high. Exports, imports, and consumer spending are down, and manufacturing and service sectors are struggling. The country's traditional growth engines of exports, real estate, and infrastructure projects are sputtering. China's attempt to boost domestic consumption hasn't yielded expected results. The appointment of Pan Gongsheng as the new central bank governor reflects Beijing's firm approach to economic challenges.

Indian banks to gain $36 billion in deposits as funds get taxed | Mint Primer | Mint

The decision made by India to begin taxing returns from fixed-income mutual funds is expected to strengthen the country's lenders' efforts to attract deposits. This will help in financing a revival in the country's credit growth and increase profits. The nation scrapping tax incentives for some debt mutual funds has paved the way for banks to garner as much as $36 billion in deposits from the asset managers, according to Sunil Mehta, chief executive officer of Indian Banks’ Association, a lenders’ lobbying body.
