At the 26th China International Fair for Investment & Trade (CIFIT), finance has played a more salient role in bolstering the real economy. The exhibition zone brings together a host of global financial institutions, sending further positive signals of China’s financial opening-up and cooperation.
今年投洽会金融专区的面积和参展参会机构数量比去年都实现了翻番,参展的头部金融机构和上市公司达140家,将带来更多的投资和金融服务方案以及项目合作机遇。值得一提的是,国际投资服务专区中,人民银行跨境清算公司聚集70多家中外资银行,为企业全球布局提供优质的跨境金融服务。
Both the floor area of the special finance zone and the number of participating institutions at this year’s CIFIT have doubled year-on-year. A total of 140 leading financial institutions and listed companies are on hand, offering more investment options, financial service solutions and project-cooperation opportunities. Notably, in the International Investment Services Zone, Cross-Border Interbank Payment System Co., Ltd. under the People’s Bank of China has assembled over 70 Chinese and foreign banks to deliver high-quality cross-border financial services for enterprises pursuing global deployment.
深化双向开放
架起跨境合作桥梁
Deepen Two-Way Opening-Up and Build Bridges for Cross-Border Cooperation
作为专注于服务国家对外贸易和高水平对外开放的金融机构,中国进出口银行深度参与本届投洽会,围绕“金融支持实体、双向赋能全球”设置专题展位,举办“融智全球 双向赋能”国际投资合作交流活动。
As a financial institution dedicated to supporting China’s foreign trade and high-level opening-up, the Export-Import Bank of China has taken an active part at this year’s CIFIT. It has set up a special booth under the theme "Finance Supports the Real Economy, Empowering the World through Two-Way Engagement", and hosted an international investment-cooperation exchange event titled "Pool Global Expertise for Two-Way Empowerment".
该行相关负责人表示,将以投洽会为契机,充分发挥特色金融服务优势,畅通国内国际双循环,赋能新质生产力,为维护全球产业链供应链安全稳定、推动高水平对外开放贡献金融力量。
Relevant officials of the bank stated that it will take CIFIT as an opportunity to give full play to its strengths in distinctive financial services, smooth the domestic and international dual circulation, foster new-quality productive forces, and contribute financial support to safeguarding the security and stability of global industrial and supply chains and advancing high-level opening-up.
展会期间,中国进出口银行通过专题宣讲、驻场一对一洽谈、高端对话等形式,聚焦东盟与上合组织合作、熊猫债创新、企业海外产业链布局等重点方向,把金融服务送到企业一线,搭建高效国际交流平台,畅通双向投资渠道,助力中资企业稳健出海。
During the fair, through special briefings, on-site one-on-one business talks and high-level dialogues, the Export-Import Bank of China focuses on priorities including ASEAN-SCO cooperation, Panda bonds innovation and enterprises’ overseas industrial-chain layout. It brings financial services directly to enterprises, builds an efficient international exchange platform, opens up smooth channels for two-way investment, and supports Chinese-funded enterprises in pursuing steady global expansion.
外资机构融通
当好内外联动纽带
Foreign Financial Institutions Boost Connectivity as a Link Between China and the World
全球化外资机构立足全球视野,抢抓投洽会开放平台机遇。首次亮相投洽会国际投资服务专区的渣打银行以“赋能增长,融通全球”为主题布展,集中呈现全方位的人民币综合解决方案及多元化的跨境金融服务。
Global-minded foreign financial institutions are seizing opportunities offered by CIFIT as an opening-up platform. Making its debut in CIFIT’s International Investment Services Zone, Standard Chartered has staged its exhibition under the theme "Empower Growth, Connect the Globe", showcasing full-fledged RMB integrated solutions and diversified cross-border financial services.
谈及人民币国际化的新趋势,渣打中国行长兼副董事长鲁静分析称:“当前人民币国际化提速,背后是‘外生性推力’与‘内生性需求’的双向奔赴——国际社会对单一货币体系的焦虑日益加深,而中国企业大规模的产业链出海势头,又为人民币创造了大量真实的商业应用场景。这是一个监管政策、基础设施与经营主体之间彼此同频共振、共同推动人民币国际化生态持续完善的过程。”
Commenting on new trends in RMB internationalization, Jean Lu, Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice Chair of Standard Chartered China, analysed: "The accelerated pace of RMB internationalization stems from the interplay of external impetus and intrinsic domestic demand. The international community has grown increasingly concerned about over-reliance on a single-currency system. Meanwhile, the large-scale overseas expansion of Chinese enterprises’ industrial chains has generated numerous real-world commercial scenarios for RMB usage. Regulatory policies, financial infrastructure and market participants are working in synergy to steadily improve the ecosystem for RMB internationalization."
渣打集团在其今年3月发布的《流动的人民币:企业跨境新动能》报告中指出,全球企业已在贸易和供应链领域广泛使用人民币,但在融资和财资管理领域,人民币仍有广阔发展空间。通过将人民币纳入融资策略,每年可能为企业节省2%的成本。
In its March-released report Renminbi in Motion for Corporates, Standard Chartered Group pointed out that global enterprises have widely adopted the RMB in trade and supply-chain businesses, yet there remains ample room for RMB development in corporate financing and treasury management. Incorporating the RMB into financing strategies could cut corporate annual costs by up to 2%.
渣打银行是首家在中国内地和中国香港都拥有CIPS直参行资格的外资银行。依托覆盖全球55个市场的服务网络、双CIPS直参资质、深度参与互联互通机制,以及mBridge与数币达等创新能力,渣打银行持续推动人民币在贸易、投融资和金融市场领域的国际化应用,同时借助自贸2.0账户、本外币一体化资金池产品,切实当好中外市场的“超级连接器”。
Standard Chartered is the first foreign bank with direct-participant status in the Cross-border Interbank Payment System (CIPS) in both the Chinese mainland and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. Drawing on its service network spanning 55 global markets, dual CIPS direct-participant qualifications, in-depth engagement in market-connect schemes, and innovative capabilities including mBridge and Cross-border e-CNY Transfer Services, Standard Chartered keeps advancing the international application of the RMB in trade, investment-financing and financial markets. With Free-Trade Account 2.0 and integrated local-foreign currency cash-pooling products, it acts as a genuine "super connector" linking Chinese and global markets.
专业资本赋能
畅通要素双向循环
Empowerment by Specialised Capital for Smooth Two-Way Flow of Production Factors
从资本端发力赋能双向投资,是本届投洽会金融展区的突出亮点。瑞士银行(中国)有限公司上海分行行长刘燕表示:“高质量双向投资绝非简单的跨境资金流动,更是资本、产业、技术、专业资源的深度融合。”
Empowering two-way investment via capital support stands out as a highlight of the finance zone at this year’s CIFIT. Liu Yan, President of UBS (China) Limited Shanghai Branch, noted in an interview: "High-quality two-way investment goes far beyond simple cross-border capital flows. It represents in-depth integration of capital, industries, technologies and professional resources."
刘燕表示,中国资本市场持续开放吸引境外资本布局,中资企业全球化步伐同步加快。瑞士银行发挥全球研究与投行服务优势,一方面助力境外机构把握中国产业机遇;另一方面为中资企业出海并购、全球资产配置、家族财富传承提供一体化方案,依靠专业资本服务推动要素双向流通。
According to Liu Yan, the continuous opening-up of China’s capital markets is attracting overseas capital, while Chinese-funded enterprises are quickening their global footprint. Leveraging its strengths in global research and investment-banking services, UBS helps overseas institutions seize industrial opportunities in China. It also delivers integrated solutions for Chinese-funded enterprises on overseas mergers and acquisitions, global asset allocation and family-wealth succession, and facilitates the two-way flow of production factors through professional capital services.
本土机构深耕
擦亮侨台经贸底色
Local Institutions Tap Local Advantages to Highlight Economic-Trade Ties with Overseas Chinese and Taiwan Business Communities
本土法人银行立足属地优势,特色服务成效凸显。厦门国际银行相关负责人介绍,投洽会为本土机构链接海内外资源创造重要契机。该行依托侨乡禀赋,发挥跨境金融、华侨金融特色,联动港澳附属机构——澳门国际银行、集友银行,携手华侨社团开展对接,面向华人华侨、侨商台商推出“侨心卡”“同心卡”,以及信用贷、安居服务等定制化产品。
Local corporate-licensed banks leverage geographical strengths and have achieved remarkable results with featured services. Executives from Xiamen International Bank said CIFIT offers vital opportunities for local institutions to connect domestic and global resources. Building on its roots in overseas-hometown communities, the bank gives play to its strengths in cross-border and overseas-Chinese-oriented finance. It works with its Hong Kong and Macau subsidiaries, namely Macau International Bank and Chiyu Banking Corporation, and partners with overseas-Chinese associations for business matchmaking. It has rolled out custom-tailored offerings including the "Qiaoxin Card", "Tongxin Card", credit loans and housing-related services for overseas Chinese, overseas-Chinese merchants and Taiwan investors.
作为福建省首家CIPS直接参与者地方法人银行,该行高效满足外贸、侨资台资企业结算、融资、汇率避险需求,赋能福建实体经济发展与区域对外开放。
As Fujian Province’s first local corporate bank with direct-participant access to CIPS, it efficiently meets settlement, financing and exchange-rate risk-hedging demands of foreign-trade, overseas-Chinese-funded and Taiwan-funded enterprises, bolstering the growth of Fujian’s real economy and regional opening-up.
这场双向奔赴的投资盛会之上,金融活水持续浇灌实体经济,为外资“引进来”和内资“走出去”铺平道路,为中国高水平对外开放、共谋全球发展注入坚实金融力量。
At this landmark investment event featuring mutual-benefit engagement, robust financial support continues to nourish the real economy. It paves the way for foreign capital to "come in" and domestic capital to "go global", injecting solid financial momentum into China’s high-level opening-up and pursuit of shared global development.
