Xi’s crusade against corruption has gone well beyond economic crime

President Xi Jinping's anti-corruption campaign has expanded beyond economic crimes to target the broader misuse of power by government officials. This shift in focus suggests that Xi is not only concerned with financial corruption but also with the abuse of authority and the erosion of trust in government institutions. The campaign's widening scope has significant implications for China's governance and economy, potentially leading to increased scrutiny of official behavior and a more transparent government.

Why it matters

China's anti-graft campaign is a long-term effort to improve governance and stability. This could lead to increased investor confidence in the country's economy.
