The week-long National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party, which opens tomorrow in Beijing, is among the main events and trends that bear watching this month for their impact on emerging markets.
The Congress is widely expected to reappoint Xi Jinping as party general secretary and president for a new term of five years. It will also appoint a new premier, as Li Keqiang is stepping down.
But from an investor's perspective, attention will focus on policy measures after the Congress concludes. It is believed that more substantial policies to stimulate growth have been held back until Mr Xi is reappointed.
