Chinese industrial production slows to 6.9 per cent growth in August amid weaker export demand
– canadianbusiness.com
BEIJING, China – China’s factory output in August slowed to 6.9 per cent from a year earlier amid waning export demand and a slump in real estate development that has undermined steel and cement production, according to data released by the National Bureau of Statistics.
The growth rate for industrial production in August was down sharply from 9.0 per cent in July.
In other data, fixed assets investment in non-rural areas of China rose 16.5 per cent in the January-August period compared with the same period a year earlier.
Industrial production was slowing amid weaker exports to major markets in Japan, Europe and the United States and the saturation of China’s domestic markets for vehicles and mobile phones after years of rapid growth, the bureau of statistics said.
The cooler summer months this year in eastern China, one of the country’s most economically active areas, also helped cut the national electricity production by 2.2 per cent in August, the first time power production decreased since 2009, the bureau said…

Mexico removes limits on monthly US dollar cash deposits by businesses in border region
– canadianbusiness.com
MEXICO CITY – The Mexican government will no longer limit the monthly cash deposits of U.S. dollars that border businesses can make if the companies allow authorities to monitor their financial transactions and meet other requirements, the president announced Friday.
President Enrique Pena Nieto said the $14,000 monthly cash deposit limit set in 2010 by the previous administration to fight the laundering of drug money has hurt honest businesses.
Companies on Mexico’s border with the United States won’t be limited on cash deposits if they can show they have been established for at least three years, allow authorities to monitor financial transactions and prove they need to make deposits larger than $14,000 a month to operate, Pena Nieto said.
He said the change will help “fight money laundering but without affecting businesses and corporations that work honestly.”
In 2010, Mexico set some of the toughest restrictions in its history on dollar cash transactions, seeking to fight money laundering that was fueling a bloody drug war…
