Experts say growth to rebound

Officials face balancing act as rising inflation threatens economic gains

China's economic growth will rebound slightly over the next quarter driven by recovering global demand and accommodative policies, but concern over rising inflation may result in tightening measures, experts said.

The economy was forecast to expand 8.2 percent in the second quarter, up from an estimated 8 percent in the first three months, according to a quarterly report published by the Bank of China on Thursday.
