高盛首席中国经济学家闪辉降中国2026与2027年GDP预期分别从4.3%和4.0%上调至4.8%与4.7%（2019年以来最大幅度的预期上调），理由是出口韧性强、中美贸易紧张局势缓和以及“十五五”规划带来的政策动力增强。闪辉表示，此次习特会表明，中国现在在贸易谈判中拥有了重要的筹码，尤其是在控制稀土出口方面，美国可能更难进一步加征关税。高盛还援引了中国近期召开的四中全会和“十五五”规划的成果，这些成果强调技术自主和产业竞争力。政策制定者旨在加大对高科技制造业和创新的投入，以此作为经济增长的驱动力，取代对房地产和基础设施的依赖。尽管这一战略可能迅速提振出口和企业利润，但闪辉警告称，提振家庭消费可能需要更长时间。高盛还指出，AI崛起有望在未来十年内将中国的长期增长潜力提升高达8%，从而有助于抵消人口结构和结构性不利因素。 ...

Core Viewpoint - The main challenge in advancing ESG and green low-carbon transformation globally and in China is the "green premium," which refers to the additional costs incurred. Innovation is essential to offset the short-term cost pressures associated with ESG practices [1][2]. Group 1: ESG Costs and Innovations - The costs associated with ESG initiatives include carbon emissions, carbon footprint, energy conservation, and emissions reduction data detection costs, as well as costs for updating production equipment, management, research and development, and compliance. These costs also encompass time, material, and transaction costs [1]. - To achieve sustainable high-quality development, it is crucial to find the optimal balance between costs and benefits in ESG and green low-carbon transformation [1]. - Innovations can drive green development in several areas, including product and category innovation, equipment and facility innovation, process and material innovation, production method innovation, and organizational, institutional, and procedural innovation [1]. Group 2: Cost Classification and Social Responsibility - ESG-related costs can be categorized into rigid costs and flexible costs. Rigid costs arise from legal regulations that set baseline requirements for high-emission, high-pollution, and high-waste enterprises. Flexible costs occur when companies exceed the minimum standards and strive for higher benchmarks, generating positive externalities and social spillover effects beneficial to society [1]. - The responsibility for these flexible costs should not rest solely on companies, as the benefits of ecological and social efficiency are shared across society [2]. Group 3: Policy Recommendations - It is essential to establish an incentive mechanism for ESG and green low-carbon initiatives, involving the entire society in cost-sharing and governance. This includes developing policies, regulations, mechanisms, and systems in areas such as finance, taxation, trade, bidding, and the business environment to support companies that actively promote ESG and social responsibility [2].
