China has announced bold targets to curb its carbon emissions, but the country will need to embrace significant policy challenges to end its heavy reliance on fossil fuels.
The transition to a low-carbon economy is also likely to impact the demand and price of metals, such as copper, aluminum, and steel.
"This is a common environment across emerging markets. Seeking to fill the financing gap in Africa with institutional funding misses the source of the problem".
The effects of the global pandemic triggered new trading dynamics between China and the rest of the world, with domestic Chinese gold now often quoted at a discount to global gold prices.
Strong GDP growth, improving governance, and limiting the rise in public debt have been key factors for the few emerging market (EM) sovereigns that have bucked the trend and seen net upgrades over the past 10 years.
At Fitch Ratings, the average EM Long-Term Foreign-Currency Issuer Default Rating has declined by 1.3 notches in the 10 years to end-August 2021 to ‘BB’, or by 0.9 notches after adjusting for composition effects.

In the global refining industry, #COVID19 has exposed a seismic shift. ⠀
⠀
While China’s #oil refineries forge ahead with capacity expansion, many western-based refiners have retrenched. As China again slows on stimulus, it is expected to officially surpass the United States as the world’s largest oil refiner, according to the International Energy Agency.⠀
⠀
This can be partly explained by China’s head start in recovering from the #pandemic. While much of the world remains under varying states of lockdown, China’s #economic growth hit 6.5% in the fourth quarter of 2020, meaning that it grew 2.3% for the full year. It is the only major economy to have expanded in 2020.⠀
⠀
