Wall Street, China to revive talks in hunt for common ground

A contingent of Wall Street veterans and high-level Chinese government officials are seeking to open up talks again, as business leaders work outside of the Biden administration for greater access to the world’s most populous country.

An influential group conceived during escalating strains between the US and China in 2018 is preparing a new round of meetings before the end of the year, according to a person with knowledge of the matter. The talks, featuring emissaries from U.S. finance as well as senior Chinese regulatory officials, had taken a backseat amid the raging pandemic.
