As the Chinese economy has moved from high-speed growth to high-quality growth, how to get out the middle-income trap has become one of the most debated issues in the current Chinese economy development.
According to Jia Kang, the key for China to get out of the middle-income trap is to strengthen the protective role as the commodities supply chain. Although China has become the world factory, there is still not even one giant covering a whole industrial chain. With the supports from the financial sector, such a giant will be there soon. The supply chain financial innovation is a very important factor to the efficiency improvement of the entire supply chain.
The supply chain is home to many SMEs while traditional financial institutions such as banks, trusts and insurance prefer top companies when granting loans. In such an imbalance of the financial resources distribution, many of SMEs have difficulties and high costs of financing.
Jia Kang said that supply chain finance could meet the financial needs of many small and micro businesses. The block chain technology will be able to bring unprecedented opportunities to supply chain finance.
