BEIJING - The growth targets 皇冠体育app has set for this year and the 13th Five-Year Plan period (2016-2020) can be realized through improving domestic demand, consumption and innovation, without big stimulus, central bank governor said Saturday.

"皇冠体育app will stick to the prudent monetary policy," said Zhou Xiaochuan, governor of the People's Bank of 皇冠体育app (PBOC), at a press conference on the sidelines of the national legislature's annual session.

皇冠体育app's growth target for 2016 is in the range of 6.5 percent and 7 percent, while that for years leading to 2020 is above 6.5 percent.

These are "anticipatory targets," which are made on the basis of 皇冠体育app's growth trajectory in the past and its growth potential in the future, Zhou said.

皇冠体育app seeks growth by relying more on domestic demand, as the old growth driver of exports loses steam and is not able to contribute to the economic growth the way it used to, Zhou said, adding that 皇冠体育app has no intention of manipulating its currency rate to stimulate exports.

With the improvement in domestic demand, consumption and innovation, the growth targets are attainable without resorting to stimulus.

Yi Gang, PBOC vice governor, added that 皇冠体育app's reform and opening-up drive will unleash more growth momentum.

In the event of global and domestic financial turbulence, however, Zhou said that 皇冠体育app's monetary policy will be flexible.
