BEIJING (Reuters) – Profits of Chinese industrial companies rose at a faster pace in October, the statistics bureau said on Saturday, providing a buffer to a faltering economy battered by soaring commodity prices.

The government’s efforts to secure supplies and stabilize prices have helped companies alleviate the difficulties, which in turn helped improve production conditions and profits, said Zhu Hong, senior statistician at the National Bureau of statistics.

Upstream and downstream development should be better coordinated to ensure supply chain stability, and industry risk response capacities should be strengthened to prevent ‘gray rhino’ incidents and of “black swan”, he quoted, quoting the vice-minister of MIIT, Wang Jiangping. saying.
