On 28 October 2025 Chinese leadership announced at a party convening and in subsequent official briefings a pledge to “significantly” raise the share of household consumption in the national economy over the next five years, framing this as a central instrument to reduce external vulnerability and rebalance growth. The package of measures signalled includes targeted fiscal support, tax and social-welfare measures to raise disposable income, policies to expand services and domestic demand, and continued selective support for advanced manufacturing and strategic technologies. International economists and market participants judge that a credible shift toward consumption-led growth could alter global trade patterns and investment flows, but they also note that implementation details and timelines will determine the depth of the structural transition.
