In a speech at Soochow Securities' forum in Hong Kong in June, Richard Koo, chief economist at the Nomura Research Institute, highlighted the similarities between China's current economic situation and Japan's balance sheet recession, suggesting that instead of focusing on monetary policy or structural reforms, China should allocate all its resources toward fiscal stimulus to sustain economic activity.
In such a scenario, Koo argues for implementing macroeconomic fiscal stimulus policies, wherein the government lends out savings to ensure sufficient liquidity, maintain economic growth and smoothen the yield curve signaling recession.
Koo's theory, which advocates fiscal borrowing stimulus measures as a means to inject liquidity and resumption of economic growth once balance sheets are repaired, undoubtedly offered innovative and logically sound solutions to Japan's economic downturns at that time.
In fact, market economies have been witness to various transitions — from pre-capitalist laissez-faire policies to Keynesian stimulus measures during the 1929-39 Great Depression, followed by post-war socialist welfare programs, active monetary policies during periods of severe inflation, and the emergence of supply-side measures during times of stagflation, emphasizing tax cuts and reforms.
In the Chinese context, it is highly inadvisable to solely rely on a single fiscal stimulus approach without considering other factors.
Most countries utilizing fiscal stimulus measures as a major tool for economic regulation over a certain period of time can be classified as a combination of "Keynesian policies at the macro level and market economy at the micro level".
Applying a singular strong fiscal stimulus plan, therefore, would lead to a situation of "pure Keynesian policies plus a transitioning market economy", which is fundamentally different from the nature of Japan's case.
In this sense, macroeconomic policy stimulus moves and market-based investments and consumption can come apart at the seams.
Overall, the differences between China and Japan, including the ongoing transition in China's market economy and the varied nature related to balance sheets and debt, make it unlikely that China will successfully adopt a one-size-fits-all potent fiscal stimulus approach without considering other factors necessary along the road to sustainable economic growth.
Private enterprises, which contribute more than half of the country's foreign trade, may have borne the brunt, Gong said, calling for encouraging more participation of private enterprises in the country's infrastructure stimulus campaigns in order to help them tackle shrinking export orders.

"With a relatively weak domestic demand weighing on the nation's economic recovery, building infrastructure is even more significant now as such activities can boost domestic demand and shore up market confidence," said Long Chaocan, an analyst and market consultant with China Galaxy Securities Co Ltd.

They called for both short-term stimulus measures and long-term solutions to deal with the structural issues.
