As the nation faces continuous downward pressure, the slow private investment growth is a big weakness.

In this regard, ANBOUND's chief researcher, Chan Kung analyzed the problem from six perspectives:-

(i)The slowdown in private investment shows that at the macro level, the public investment increases while private investment reduces;

(ii)The structural problem has restricted private investment;

(iii)The problems in implementing the policies;

(iv)The problems in the operations of the banks;

(v)The poor macroeconomic outlook; and

(vi)The underlying problems with private investment.

Chan Kung stresses that the key to resolve the slowdown in private investment is to ensure the successful implementation of the policies.

The policies should not be seen as a concept or a slogan. On the operational level, policies should means detailed documentations in relation to planning, guarantees, loans, qualifications, leaderships, incentives and talents.

The promotion of private investment is a long-term, systematic work and to achieve the intended effect, we must continue with our works.
