Every global concern - economic, environmental or security-related - can be addressed more effectively when the U.S. and China work together.

The U.S. and China need to take steps - mostly individually, sometimes together - that will have the mutually beneficial effect of supporting and sustaining economic growth.

As the Indian government has embraced greater economic openness, the creativity and expertise of the Indian workforce has been unleashed onto the world economic stage.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
For decades, Indians have immigrated to the United States, joined our communities, and raised their families while maintaining their cultural heritage.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
India is one of the world's largest and most peaceful states with advanced nuclear technologies and has been isolated from the rest of the world on nuclear issues.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
Illiquid asset purchases are all about capital and encouraging private capital to come in.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
I always told people in the private sector, 'You can be the smartest person in the world, you can have the very best ideas, but if you can't sell them and you can't get other people to work with you, you're not going to succeed.'
Quote by -Henry Paulson
I think all governments engage in intelligence gathering vis-a-vis other governments.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
The Chinese have done some extraordinary things in terms of the investments they've made in alternative sources of energy.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
When you look at territorial disputes, there are good arguments on any sides. I think it's important that we don't take sides on legitimacy.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
China and the U.S. are the two largest importers of oil. They are the two largest emitters of carbon.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
I see nothing easy in Washington. I see either analytically simple things that are politically complex or those that are politically complex and analytically complex. I mean, look at immigration reform, you know? It is, I think, analytically easy, but politically very, very complex and very difficult.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
I happen to think that global slowdown, the slowdown in investment, strengthening dollar probably provide more of a headwind than we get from the decline in oil prices.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
China saves too much, produces too much, sells too much to Americans and consumes too little.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
I've been through periods of stress, turbulence in the market for over the course of my career, various times, and never in any of those other periods have we had the advantage of a strong economy underpinning the markets.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
As a steward of the U.S.economy and financial systems, the Treasury has helped lay the groundwork for the American economy to become a model of strength, flexibility, dynamism, resiliency. This is a system that generates growth, creates jobs and wealth, rewards initiative, and fosters innovation.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
If the financial system collapses, it's really, really hard to put it back together again.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
A study by Treasury economists estimated that a country with a tax rate one percentage point lower than another country's attracts 3 percent more capital. It's not surprising then, that average OECD corporate tax rates have trended steadily downward.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
What I've said repeatedly is, 'I think the auto industry is a very important industry.'
Quote by -Henry Paulson
Too often, we restrict trade that would create U.S. jobs and is in our national interest.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
All of us would like to have our children and their grandchildren grow up with at least the level of prosperity that we had. In the U.S., we seem to be very selfish because the older generation is not making the sacrifices.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
Let's not forget, what TARP did allowed us to move overnight and put capital into hundreds of banks, and that money came back plus $32 billion.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
The idea of being Treasury secretary in the abstract appealed to me, but my initial inclination was that it wasn't right for me to take that step.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
In pursuing economic growth, India and the United States share similar values and similar challenges. We understand that the global economy is here to stay. To keep growing and leading the world in innovation and opportunity, the United States and India must trade freely, openly, and according to the principles of the global marketplace.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
I never once considered that it was appropriate to put taxpayer money on the line in resolving Lehman Brothers.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
Indian-Americans are physicians, engineers, CEOs, professors, teachers, entrepreneurs. They are a vital part of the United States' economic and social fabric. Because of this long history, the bonds among our people and our cultures will remain strong.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
I grew up on a working farm. It was small, a hundred acres, but we had cows and pigs and chickens and sheep and a vegetable garden. I spent hours pulling weeds, hoeing, feeding the horses, cleaning out the stalls. My dad was a tough taskmaster. I always worked, but we also had fun.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
I can't help but think what would have happened if a divisive character such as Trump were president during the 2008 financial crisis, at a time when leadership, compromise, and careful analysis were critical.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
As I talk with the Chinese on currency, I encourage them to move much more quickly with opening up their capital markets to competition, because I don't believe the world is going to give them as much time as they would like.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
Complexity and interconnectedness matter as much as size in assessing risk in banking.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
No bank should be too big or too complex to fail, but almost any bank is too big to liquidate quickly, particularly in the midst of a crisis.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
Foreclosure is to no one's benefit. I've heard estimates that mortgage investors lose 40 to 50 percent on their investment if it goes into foreclosure.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
I believe that the root cause of every financial crisis, the root cause, is flawed government policies.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
There is a very real danger that financial regulation will become a wolf in sheep's clothing.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
