China’s Xi Supports Beijing Free Trade Zone

“China will unswervingly increase its openness and set up a robust cross-border services trade-negative list system,” he said.

A negative list sets out prohibited and restricted industries for foreign investment. The Ministry of Commerce said on Thursday that one would be set up for services by the end of this year.

Xi also said China supports the establishment of a global alliance of trade and services, and would further ease market access for the service sector.
