Chinese central bank says economic growth prospects have improved

BEIJING (Reuters) - Chinese central bank governor Zhou Xiaochuan said China's growth prospects have improved and that the country is focused on the structural adjustment of its economy.

Zhou was speaking to other central bank governors and finance ministers from the so-called BRICS countries in Baden-Baden, Germany, during G20 meetings, according to a post on the People's Bank of China's website on Saturday.

Zhou stressed that China's monetary policy remained prudent and neutral.
