INTERVIEW-China to stick to loose policies -PBOC's Fan

SINGAPORE, Nov 6 - China's economy has stabilised and is on track to achieve economic growth of 8 percent next year but will stick to its loose fiscal and monetary policies for now, central bank adviser Fan Gang told Reuters on Friday.

"The economy has stabilised and I personally believe the recovery will be sustained," Fan, a member of the monetary policy committee of the People's Bank of China, said in an interview.

"There is no problem for China to achieve 8 percent growth in 2010."

Officials see growth rate of 8 percent as the minimum needed to maintain social stability.

Fan, director of the National Economic Research Institute, a Beijing-based think-thank, is the only academic who sits on the central bank's 13-member monetary policy committee.
