China's leadership, led by President Xi Jinping, emphasized plans to boost economic growth through proactive fiscal policies and moderately loose monetary measures at a high-level economic planning meeting.

Hong Kong Summit: Chinese Leaders Defend Economy as Wall Street CEOs Keep Quiet

Chinese officials defended the state of China's economy at a global finance summit in Hong Kong, assuring international CEOs that the country is on track to hit its growth target of about 5% this year. Despite an uneven recovery and challenges in the property market, officials highlighted China's working-age population, investment in research and development, and long-term status as an export powerhouse as reasons for optimism.
