"Stephen Roach, senior fellow at the Paul Tsai China Center at Yale University in the United States, downplayed concerns over underlying structural imbalances and mounting debt.
But Roach argued that China's mixed economy, featuring both state and private enterprises, coupled with substantial savings and foreign exchange reserves, offer a measure of resilience.
Stephen Roach, an economist and senior fellow at the Jackson Institute for Global Affairs at Yale University in the United States, said the report was a move away from strict targeting and was a "welcome development".
Stephen Roach, senior fellow at Yale University's Jackson Institute for Global Affairs, predicts a "significant rebound" of 8.5 percent in China's growth this year after achieving 2.5 percent last year.
China's "post-COVID-19 rebound is gathering momentum amid a developed world that remains on shaky ground", Stephen Roach, a senior fellow at Yale University, said in an article published by Singapore-based Channel NewsAsia.
Roach attributed China's quick economic recovery to the deployment of a "COVID-19-first strategy "where the country "insulates its citizens from a virulent pathogenic contagion with public health measures" first and then "makes judicious use of monetary and fiscal policy to reinforce the post-lockdown snapback".
The most important common ground between China and the United States is on the opportunities that both economies provide for each other, to expand businesses and to expand economic impacts, said Stephen Roach, senior fellow at Yale University and former chairman of Morgan Stanley Asia.
Trade and economics are the anchor, the ballast of the relationship between the two countries, Roach added.
Stephen Roach, a leading United States economist and senior fellow at Yale University's Jackson Institute for Global Affairs, said China is set to escape the middle-income trap, as it has taken two important steps.
Roach, former chief economist and Asian head of investment bank Morgan Stanley, said China has fully learned the lessons of 1997.
This is increasingly important in a crisis-prone world," Roach added.
Roach, author of Unbalanced: The Codependency of America and China, said, "For open economies like China－especially in light of its new commitment to 'higher-level reform and opening up'－two-way (trade) flows with the rest of the world will render the verdict on global linkages.

China's GDP grew by 4.9 percent year-on-year in the third quarter, faster than the 3.2 percent growth between April and June, suggesting "a rapid return to the pre-COVID trend", according to US economist Stephen Roach, also former chairman of Morgan Stanley Asia.
China's GDP grew by 4.9 percent year-on-year in the third quarter, faster than the 3.2-percent growth between April and June, suggesting "a rapid return to the pre-COVID trend", according to US economist Stephen Roach, also former chairman of Morgan Stanley Asia, a New York-based investment bank.
Just as China led the world in economic recovery in the aftermath of the global financial crisis of 2008, it is playing a similar role today, in the COVID-19 era, said Stephen Roach, a faculty member at Yale University.
"While that is a welcome and marked turnaround from the record decline during the lockdown, it is about 20 percentage points short of China's post-lockdown rebound and still leaves the US economy about 3 percent below its peak of late 2019," Roach pointed out.
Roach elaborated that when the 2008 subprime crisis swept through the world, China's objective back then was crystal clear from the start: address the source of the shock, itself, rather than the collateral damage the shock caused.
""This is very different from the approach taken in the US, where the post-lockdown debate is more about using monetary and fiscal policies as frontline instruments of economic liberation, rather than relying on disciplined public-health measures aimed at virus containment," added Roach.
"The third quarter GDP was encouraging," which does show that "China is on a solid path of economic recovery following the COVID-19 shock in the early months of this year," Stephen Roach, senior fellow at Yale University's Jackson Institute for Global Affairs, told Xinhua in an online video interview Tuesday.
"The encouraging pieces of it have to do with the contribution to economic growth made by Chinese consumers, who clearly were most adversely impacted by the lockdown early this year," said Roach, who was formerly chairman of Morgan Stanley Asia and chief economist at Morgan Stanley, a New York-based investment bank.
"The most impressive aspect of the economy's performance is that the highest priority was given to containing the outbreak of COVID-19," said Roach.
And then by containing the shock, they were able to utilize policy tools, fiscal and monetary, to then stimulate the aggregate demand after the shock had been controlled," said Roach.
Further efforts in public health, health security and the social safety net, and continuing down the road of reforms, are among the aspects in which China could continue their endeavor so as to maintain the economic momentum and build up resilience, according to Roach.
However, well-known mainstream economist Stephen Roach, now a faculty member at Yale and former chairman of Morgan Stanley Asia, last month predicted that the dollar will fall 35 percent by early 2021, adding credibility to those who fear that the dollar-based financial system will not survive this crisis.
Roach's key argument is that huge US government borrowing is driving the consolidated US savings rate down to unprecedentedly low levels－below 2 percent of GDP.
Stephen Roach, a senior fellow at Yale University and former chairman of Morgan Stanley Asia, told Xinhua that the S&P ratings cut is a belated recognition of a serious problem that China has already begun to address.
"As long as China continues to emphasize financial stability - and takes actions aimed at promoting it - the threat to growth and development should not be serious," said Roach.
"The S&P ratings cut is a belated recognition of a serious problem that China has already begun to address," Stephen Roach, a senior fellow at Yale University and former chairman of Morgan Stanley Asia, told Xinhua.
China's central bank, the China Banking Regulatory Commission, and the State Council have all take explicit actions in 2017 to reduce the expansion of debt - especially the mounting indebtedness of state-owned enterprises, said Roach.
Roach said this is an important step "in the right direction" - and hopefully recent policy actions noted above will reinforce this deleveraging in the quarters ahead.
"A high-saving Chinese economy mainly owes debt to itself - very different than classic debt crises triggered by an outflow of foreign investors who were investing their surplus saving in China," Roach said.
Roach said China's high saving offers an effective "insurance policy" that reflects a very high priority on "financial stability.
