Abstract
China’s investment-led growth model enabled an unparalleled period of high growth and economic development. However, the rate at which China can productively absorb investment is declining as its economy matures. Nevertheless, the most recent policy approach to address economic weakness is to double down on its investment-centric approach and to identify new productive sources, which is widely expected to increase already existing overcapacities. Efforts to direct these overcapacities to export markets, often through lower prices or prices made competitive by comparatively high rates of state subsidies, will have global implications for China’s trading partners. Lower priced exports could lead to spillovers of disinflationary pressures, both through direct and indirect effects via changes in the pricing behaviour of trading partners’ domestic firms. China's growing dominance in global exports of advanced manufacturing and green technology will affect competitiveness among China’s major trading partners. Industrial and trade policies will be increasingly important in determining the economic outcome of China’s trade relations.

Abstract
This article reviews the impact of Brexit on recent developments in UK trade and labour markets. While it will take some time for the full impact of Brexit to emerge and the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is a confounding factor, the available data allow a first stocktake of the effects of Brexit. While significant uncertainties regarding the precise magnitudes remain, the available evidence suggests that Brexit has been a drag on UK trade and has contributed to a fall in labour supply.

Abstract
Post-pandemic labour market developments in the United States and United Kingdom show that imbalances between labour demand and labour supply are causing a high and unusual tightness in the labour market for such an early stage in a recovery. This could translate into broad-based wage pressures, in turn posing a risk to inflation. Such pressures are becoming increasingly visible in the United States, but are less marked in the United Kingdom.
