History

Historical Context

In 1978, Deng Xiaoping launched China’s Reform and Opening, shifting the centrally planned economy toward market mechanisms and foreign investment. The policy spurred annual GDP growth averaging 9.5% from 1979-2010, lifting over 800 million people out of poverty, according to World Bank data. Today, CICC Global Institute’s 2026 Macro Forum in Bangkok echoes that legacy, with IMF chief Kristalina Georgieva and Shanghai-based analysts debating China’s new dual-circulation model. The continuation signals Beijing’s intent to balance domestic consumption with export-driven growth, a strategy that could reshape global trade flows for the next decade.
