Beijing has sweetened its fiscal package, embarking on a program to sell ultra-long special sovereign bonds in 2024 and in the years to come. It’s also fleshing out a plan to upgrade industrial equipment and boost household spending in consumer goods, pledging to help fund the program possibly worth hundreds of billions of yuan with budget money.
