2025 Policy Priorities
AmCham China’s 2025 Policy Priorities
AmCham China is pleased to present our Policy Priorities for the upcoming year, setting the stage for a year of policy-focused advocacy on behalf of our members.
On January 15 in Beijing, AmCham China hosted members for the 2025 Policy Priorities Townhall. This annual event serves as a crucial meeting to establish the foundational objectives of the Chamber’s policy, advocacy, and messaging for the year ahead.
These priorities frame our advocacy for the year and are reflected throughout our annual White Paper, media messaging, DC Outreach, and other policy and advocacy efforts.
In 2025, our Policy Priorities are:
Priority One: Stability and Certainty in US-China Economic Relations
To enhance stability and certainty in bilateral relations, both nations should limit trade controls, avoid excessive tariffs, and refrain from over-de-risking, ensuring smoother business operations and minimizing disruptions to the global economy.
Priority Two: Boost People-to-People Exchanges
To rebuild trust and foster cooperation, both sides should reduce inflammatory rhetoric, increase direct engagement between government and business leaders, and improve transparency around regulations, especially for foreign businesses.
Priority Three: Support for Foreign Investment with Fair, Transparent Policymaking
To address uncertainty and business concerns regarding China’s commitment to opening its market to foreign investors, the Chinese government should implement transparent and consistent policies that create a level playing field for foreign investors, while also clarifying legal frameworks such as the Anti-Espionage Law.
