Buenos Aires, December 17 (NA) — Increasing domestic demand will be the top priority of China's economic policy in 2026, stated a senior official from the Central Committee's Office for Financial and Economic Affairs. The official detailed the guidelines emerging from the Central Conference on Economic Work held last week in Beijing, as reported by the Argentine News Agency.
The official explained that policies will be implemented to stimulate consumption from both the supply and demand sides, taking into account structural changes in the consumption patterns of the Chinese population.

Furthermore, he noted that efforts will be made to stabilize and reverse the decline in investment, aiming to improve the quality of life and strengthen long-term economic growth.
“Through the coordination between investment and consumption, and by creating synergies between the government and the market, there are broad conditions to achieve sustained growth in domestic demand next year,” he stated.
Regarding macroeconomic prospects, the official indicated that in 2025, the main economic indicators will meet expectations, with estimated growth of around 5%, which would bring China's economy to approximately 140 trillion yuan (about 19.83 trillion dollars), keeping the country among the world's most rapidly expanding major economies.
Concerning the real estate market, he affirmed that there is significant room for high-quality development in 2026, supported by demand from both first-time homebuyers and those seeking to upgrade their housing.
In this context, measures will be promoted to stabilize the sector, advance the transformation of real estate companies, and accelerate the construction of a new development model for the industry.
The official concluded that despite the challenges, the outlook for the Chinese economy remains solid and favorable in the medium and long term.
