BEIJING, March 7 (Xinhua) -- China is confident of fully forestalling systemic risks, the country's financial minister said here Wednesday.
The country's debt-to-GDP ratio has decreased to 36.2 percent by the end of 2017 from 36.7 percent in 2016, far below the so-called alert line of 60 percent internationally, Finance Minister Xiao Jie said at a press conference on the sidelines of the annual parliamentary session.
