HONG KONG, Nov 18 (Reuters) - Chinese gross domestic product could grow between 8 percent and 9 percent next year, Fan Gang, a member of the People's Bank of China's monetary policy committee, said on Wednesday.
Fan, who holds the seat on the advisory body reserved for an academic, told a forum that GDP growth this year would be above the government's target of 8 percent. (Reporting by Susan Fenton; Editing by Alan Wheatley)
