OUTLOOK AND OPTIONS
The China-Brazil trade stands at a new turnover point. With a slowing growth,
the two economies should seek new trade growth points:
• FDI should become a new engine, which might push the upgrade of the
trade structure
• The intra-industry coordination will help to promote trade and FDI
• The regulation innovation will bring a more stable growth of the bilateral
trade
