As the novel coronavirus COVID-19 spreads from China to over 200
countries across the world, the country's economic growth could hit
its lowest point since 1990. According to the worst-case scenario
projected by over 40 economists, China's GDP growth could fall as
low as to five percent in 2020. In the first quarter of 2020, the
second-largest economy recorded the first contraction in decades
due to the epidemic.
GDP per capita in China is expected to reach 8730.00 USD by the end
of 2020, according to Trading Economics global macro models and
analysts expectations. In the long-term, the China GDP per capita
is projected to trend around 9200.00 USD in 2021, according to our
