The sheer scale of growth in China
staggers the imagination, as the world’s
most populous nation builds the physical
infrastructure required to support the
economic development of more than one
billion people. Long-term projections
estimate that, by 2020, China could have
a GDP of $5 trillion, demand for 900 giga-
watts of power, 100 airports with 2,500
aircraft, 16 million vehicles in the world’s
largest car market, and water require-
ments three times those of the U.S.
R
China’s financial infrastructure will
evolve as well, and by 2020 the country
could have 500 million active consumers
requiring credit cards, auto loans, mort-
gages and personal financing products.
GE Consumer Finance is there today laying
the groundwork to help those consumers
build their dreams tomorrow.
