A unifying theme across the reforms that will deliver this transformation is that it can no longer be achieved by raising the amount of physical investment and government direction of resource allocation. Instead China is building a new set of policy frameworks that will allow markets to function more effectively—not unfettered markets, but markets that work efficiently, in line with broad social and other policy goals, and in a sustainable way. Hence, China is now building a new soft infrastructure, that is, the institutional plumbing that underpins and guides the functioning of markets as the key organizing principle toward achieving sustained economic and social progress. Against this background, this volume provides policymakers, academics, and the public with valuable information about policies and institutions in China today. It also looks at the road ahead and key principles that can help China in navigating it. The book focuses on issues crucial in the country’s transformation, such as tax policy and administration, social security, state-owned enterprise reform, medium-term expenditure frameworks, the role of local government finances, capital account liberalization, and renminbi internationalization. As China moves toward a more price-based allocation of resources, strengthening monetary policy frameworks and financial sector regulation will be particularly important in channeling resources to the most productive sectors and minimizing the risks of financial sector stress. Also, upgrading statistical frameworks will be critical for macroeconomic policymaking and investors.<br /><br /> Visit : <a href="http://www.elibrary.imf.org/page/modernizing-china" target="_blank">http://www.elibrary.imf.org/page/modernizing-china</a>.BooksInfrastructure (Economics)ChinaCorporate governanceFiscal policyChinaMonetary policyChinaBanks and BankingimfBudgetingimfExports and ImportsimfPublic FinanceimfTaxationimfMacroeconomicsimfTaxation, Subsidies, and Revenue: GeneralimfInterest Rates: Determination, Term Structure, and EffectsimfBanksimfDepository InstitutionsimfMicro Finance InstitutionsimfMortgagesimfForecasts of Budgets, Deficits, and DebtimfData Collection and Data Estimation MethodologyimfComputer Programs: OtherimfFiscal PolicyimfPublic finance & taxationimfBudgeting & financial managementimfFinanceimfInternational economicsimfTax administration core functionsimfMedium-term budget frameworksimfBankingimfPension spendingimfBudget planning and preparationimfRevenue administrationimfPublic financial management (PFM)imfExpenditureimfPersonal incomeimfNational accountsimfBudgetimfTax administration and procedureimfPensionsimfInterest ratesimfIncome taximfChinaEconomic conditionsChina, People's Republic ofimfInfrastructure (Economics)Corporate governance.Fiscal policyMonetary policyBanks and BankingBudgetingExports and ImportsPublic FinanceTaxationMacroeconomicsTaxation, Subsidies, and Revenue: GeneralInterest Rates: Determination, Term Structure, and EffectsBanksDepository InstitutionsMicro Finance InstitutionsMortgagesForecasts of Budgets, Deficits, and DebtData Collection and Data Estimation MethodologyComputer Programs: OtherFiscal PolicyPublic finance & taxationBudgeting & financial managementFinanceInternational economicsTax administration core functionsMedium-term budget frameworksBankingPension spendingBudget planning and preparationRevenue administrationPublic financial management (PFM)ExpenditurePersonal incomeNational accountsBudgetTax administration and procedurePensionsInterest ratesIncome taxLam Waikei1449953Rodlauer Markus1489566Schipke Alfred1501097International Monetary Fund.DcWaIMFBOOK9910792645203321Modernizing China3780322UNINA
