BEIJING - China's fiscal policy will continue to balance risk prevention and growth promotion, retaining ample room for future measures, Finance Minister Lan Fo'an said on Friday.

At a press conference on the country's fiscal reform during the 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-2025), Lan also pointed out that the country's government debt ratio is within a reasonable range and risks are manageable and under control.

By the end of 2024, China's government debt ratio stood at 68.7 percent, Lan said.
