China’s statistics bureau has revised down its estimate of 2014 economic growth to 7.3 per cent from 7.4 per cent, in a move set to revive concerns about the health of the country’s economy.
中国国家统计局将其对2014年中国经济增长率的估计值从7.4%向下修正为7.3%。此举势必将重新唤起人们对中国经济健康状况的担忧。
In a statement posted on its website, the National Bureau of Statistics said China’s gross domestic product last year was Rmb63.6tn ($10tn), down about Rmb32bn from its initial estimate in January. The bureau attributed the revision to a lower estimate for the country’s services sector, while industrial and agricultural output were both revised upwards.
中国国家统计局在其网站上发布声明称，去年中国国内生产总值(GDP)为63.6万亿元人民币（合10万亿美元），比今年1月的初步核算数减少约320亿元人民币。该局把这次修正归因于服务业产值估计值被调低，而工业与农业产值的估计值都略有调高。
China’s central bank surprised global markets last month with a 1.9 per cent devaluation of the renminbi, spooking investors who thought the move was aimed at boosting flagging exports and economic growth.
上个月，中国央行引导人民币贬值1.9%，震惊了全球市场，吓坏了那些认为此举旨在提振乏力的出口和经济增长的投资者。
The revision takes the country’s economic performance a notch further below its official growth target for last year, which was set at “around 7.5 per cent”. The 7.4 per cent figure was already the slowest rate of expansion since 1990.
这次修正使得中国的经济表现相对于去年“7.5%左右”的官方增长率目标又下了一个台阶。7.4%已是自1990年以来的最慢增速了。
This year’s growth target is “around 7 per cent”, although Chinese officials have admitted the country may struggle to hit that figure.
今年中国的增长率目标是“7%左右”，尽管中国官员已承认要实现这个目标可能有些难度。
The downgrade to China’s 2014 GDP came after G20 finance ministers tried to dispel fears over the potential global fallout from a Chinese slowdown.
这次修正发布之前，20国集团(G20)财长曾试着驱散对中国放缓可能影响全球经济的担忧。
Wolfgang , German finance minister, said the G20 had agreed there was no reason to fret over slower Chinese growth, while Pierre Moscovici, the EU Commissioner for economic affairs, praised “the absolute determination of the [Chinese] authorities to sustain growth”.
德国财长沃尔夫冈朔伊布勒(Wolfgan )表示，G20一致认为没有理由对中国增长放缓感到焦虑，欧盟经济与货币事务专员皮埃尔莫斯科维奇(Pierre Moscovici)则称赞了“（中国）当局支撑增长的坚定决心”。
Also at the G20 finance ministers’ meeting in Ankara, Zhou Xiaochuan, governor of the People’s Bank of China, said China’s stock market had almost completed its “correction”.
此外，在安卡拉G20财长会议上，中国央行行长周小川还表示，中国股市的“调整”已大致到位。
