1. China Slows

The world's second largest economy grew at its slowest pace in six years, intensifying pressure on the government to boost stimulus measures. China's GDP expanded by 7% in the first three months of 2015. That was in line with expectations but down from 7.3% in the fourth quarter of 2014.

2. ECB Meeting

The European Central Bank is expected leave interest rates at ultra-low levels when it delivers a policy update later Wednesday. Investors will be looking for comments from President Mario Draghi on the outlook for its massive bond buying program launched last month in a bid to boost the economy.

Most Asian markets finished with modest losses, though China's Shanghai Composite dropped 1.2% on the fall in GDP.
