The G7 Is Failing To Address Global Imbalances

Joshua Banerjee
The global economy is in the early stages of a second China shock as the Chinese economy moves up the manufacturing value chain to produce advanced technology for export. China’s advantage lies in government subsidies and an artificially suppressed exchange rate.
