It's been a strange 12 months for China. A set of extremely strict covid policies, along with the fallout from the property sector and regulatory crackdowns, had created a lot of negative sentiment towards the country among investors. A sudden reopening and efforts to woo foreign investment have turned things on their head once again.
To try and understand what's been happening, we speak to Andrew Batson, who is director of China research and Gavekal. We speak about the past couple of years and try to understand what was behind some of the policy decisions, as well as what the country's authorities aims are moving forward.
