Premier Li Keqiang moved yesterday to reassure foreign companies at the World Economic Forum that his government is not making life harder for them in China, Bloomberg reported. Li told executives from the likes of Qualcomm and Mariott International that his government will attract more imports, protect intellectual property and treat both foreign and domestic companies the same. The comments follow a spate of antitrust probes and a general sense that doing business in China is becoming harder, leading the American Chamber of Commerce to issue a statement expressing concerns over recent developments. Li also reiterated China’s commitment to pursuing interest-rate and exchange-rate reform and asserted that China’s economy would avoid a hard landing.
