China's economy is under pressure as the ongoing Iran war threatens its 4.5% growth target. Experts warn that rising oil prices are impacting export growth and domestic demand, particularly in the plastics sector. The conflict has led to increased shipping costs and reduced consumer spending in Southeast Asia, affecting China's export shipments. Additionally, domestic demand is faltering, with car sales declining significantly. Analysts predict that the energy crisis will further strain China's economic recovery, impacting both exports and consumer confidence.

Greater China's private equity market is recovering, but fundraising remains selective and performance-driven due to geopolitical uncertainties. According to Bain & Co.'s report, capital is flowing to fewer opportunities, particularly in sectors with strong investor conviction. Yuan-denominated funds are now the primary source of new capital, while US dollar-denominated fundraising has declined. Deal volume and exit values have increased, with total exit value reaching approximately US$53 billion in 2025. Top-performing fund managers are attracting more capital, emphasizing the need for differentiation and consistent execution in a competitive environment.

Yuan is expected to strengthen to around 6.8 per USD in Q2, defying typical seasonal weakness due to strong trade performance and a widening surplus. Analysts from TD Securities and Credit Agricole CIB highlight China's large FX reserves and limited exposure to energy shocks as key supports. The yuan has already gained approximately 3% in Q1 against peers, and is increasingly viewed as a regional safe-haven despite geopolitical volatility, particularly from the Iran conflict. This outlook suggests a shift in the yuan's behavior, benefiting from strong fundamentals and external balances.
