Abstract
On the 8th of October 2014, China reportedly overtook the US as the world largest economy based on total purchasing-power-parity (PPP) GDP, having already topped GDP growth rankings over the last 25 years. But how large can China’s economy become in the future?
Professor Franklin Allen from the Imperial Business School Imperial will discuss what might hold back this seemingly unstoppable juggernaut, the reform of the country’s economy that will be required to revive growth in the future, and the impact this could have on markets around the world.
