Episode Synopsis

China’s currency, the yuan, has seen its value against the US dollar depreciate sharply this year. That may reflect foreign disillusionment with China’s economic prospects and policy making. Many investors are also unnerved by a regulatory crackdown on technology companies, with the Communist Party insisting on more centralised control. In this podcast, George Magnus, a research associate at the SOAS China Institute and Oxford University's China Centre, discusses China’s economic challenges with regular host, Duncan Bartlett.
