As the world knows, China has become the world's second largest economy. However, despite this, the Chinese economy remains difficult to understand. Many things impede research into its intricacies, among them China's unique institutions, a scarcity of institutional knowledge and high-quality data, and imperfect connections between academia and policy makers. CCE's mission is to help remove these barriers.
CCE will organize a variety of regular events on both academic and policy fronts. The Center will also collaborate with the Chinese government to develop institutional knowledge and data resources for academic research. Furthermore, CCE will regularly publish working papers and policy reports, promote research in mass media, and provide policy suggestions.
Our research team is composed of leading and active scholars on the Chinese economy. We are currently focusing on three fields: 1) China's growth and institutional transformation; 2) empirical analysis of microeconomic behaviour in China; and 3) global perspectives on China's economic fluctuations.
Now and in the future, CCE is committed to promoting academic research and policy studies on the Chinese economy, and to making contributions to China's economic development.

Established in May 2017, the Chinese University of Hong Kong – Tsinghua University Joint Research Center for Chinese Economy (CCE) aims to promote academic research and policy studies on the Chinese economy. Leveraging a connection between Hong Kong and Beijing, a solid and experienced research team, and bountiful resources, CCE strives to facilitate communication and collaboration between academia and the Chinese government.
CCE is supported by two leading research institutions on the Chinese economy in Hong Kong and mainland China: The Department of Economics at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, and the School of Economics and Management at Tsinghua University. Both institutions feature internationally recognizable faculty members who have conducted cutting-edge research on the Chinese economy. Tsinghua is particularly well-known for its economic policy influences.
Currently, CCE is led by Co-Directors Professor Chong-En Bai and Professor Zheng Michael Song, together with three Associate Directors, Professor Qing Liu, Professor Ka-Ho Travis Ng, and Professor Kang Shi. CCE's mission is threefold: 1) to organize a variety of regular academic and policy events; 2) to collaborate with the Chinese government to develop institutional knowledge and data resources for academic research; and 3) to regularly publish working papers and policy reports, promote research in mass media, and provide policy suggestions.
