Shop and factory prices both fell in China last month, according to data released Wednesday. That means the country is suffering deflation for the first time in over two years. It's the latest in a long list of concerns for Beijing as China's post-COVID rebound fizzles out. That's another economic worry for Beijing, which is also contending with faltering growth, skyrocketing youth unemployment, and massive amounts of debt. The data released Wednesday is likely to lead to more calls for fiscal stimulus, according to analysts.

  + stars: | 2023-05-17 | by ( Eva Mathews | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
May 17 (Reuters) - Experian Plc's (EXPN.L) annual revenue growth forecast on Wednesday signalled a challenging economic backdrop, especially in North America, where the failure of three U.S. regional banks has hurt confidence in the sector. Experian's key customers include banks, non-traditional lenders and insurance providers, which use its credit reports and scores to analyse and make decisions around credit risk, fraud prevention and lending terms. "Tighter lending conditions (especially in North America) are impacting some of Experian's business lines with more direct volume exposure, including its core credit bureau and marketplace, which together account for about 17% of group revenue," Bank of America analysts said. About 67% of Experian's group revenue comes from the North America region. For the year ended March 31, Experian's organic revenue growth of 7% to $6.59 billion compared with analysts' consensus of $6.64 billion.
