Guo made the remarks while delivering a government report at the city's annual legislative session.

He said the international financial crisis has affected Beijing's economy, as the city witnesses a continuing downturn in the real estate market, mounting pressures for businesses, and reduced growth rates in industrial output, export, fiscal income and economy.

Beijing's service-based economy is home to several multinational headquarters. The delayed affects of the international financial crisis presents many questions about the near future, according to Guo.
