Chinese central bank delegation visits LB
Published: 11:23 12.09.2007.

RIGA, Sept 12 (LETA) - A delegation from the People's Bank of China, led by its president Zhou Xiaochuan, paid a visit to the Bank of Latvia (Latvijas Banka, LB) yesterday.

Macroeconomic processes were discussed in wake of the rapid economic development. Latvia's transition to a market economy was also reviewed, that opened the door for membership in the European Union.

At this time, both China and Latvia share the same reality - a high economic growth rate and resulting high inflation.

The Chinese delegation "stopped by" Riga on its way home from a meeting of central bank leaders in Basel, Switzerland.
