Li Yining (Chinese: 厉以宁; pinyin: Lì Yǐníng; 22 November 1930 – 27 February 2023) was a Chinese economist. He had been a leading voice for the privatization of state-owned companies, and his advocacy led to the establishment of China's stock markets in 1990. For this reason, he is nicknamed "Li Gufen" (Li the Stock), while Wu Jinglian is known as Wu Shichang (Wu the Market). Along with Yu Guangyuan and Wu Jinglian, Li was credited with providing the theoretical basis for the market-oriented reform that has propelled China's economic growth.
