China Eximbank has taken bold steps toward fostering stronger regional economic integration by signing framework cooperation agreements with both the Vietnam Development Bank and the Malaysia Eximbank during the 29th Asian Export-Import Banks Forum, held in Shanghai. These partnerships focus on advancing cooperation in infrastructure, digital economy, and green finance, further emphasizing China Eximbank's commitment to mutual growth and sustainable development across Asia.

The collaboration with the Vietnam Development Bank, represented by China Eximbank's Vice President Yang Dongning and Vietnam's CEO Dao Quang Trung, centers on facilitating bilateral trade and bolstering investments, particularly in digital transformation and sustainable infrastructure. This agreement sets a foundation for collaborative financing mechanisms aimed at supporting critical sectors that drive both economic and environmental benefits in the region.

Meanwhile, the partnership with Malaysia Eximbank, formalized between Chairpersons Wu Fulin and Zahrul Mokhzani, introduces a framework for joint credit solutions targeting infrastructure and green low-carbon projects. The agreement also includes provisions for third-party country projects, a move expected to increase cross-border financing options and promote cooperative efforts in Asia’s high-growth sectors.

As Asia faces unprecedented challenges and opportunities, forum delegates unanimously highlighted the urgency of regional cooperation. Focusing on the theme "Asia's Regional Cooperation and Global Economic Integration," representatives from Japan, Korea, India, and multilateral financial institutions underscored collaborative solutions. Key proposals included integrating green financial policies, leveraging digital economy capabilities, and fortifying regional supply chains to drive stability and resilience in the global market.

Wu Fulin, Chairman of China Eximbank, articulated the role of Asia's financial institutions as both contributors and witnesses to the "Asian Miracle." He emphasized three core objectives: pooling funds to attract more private investments, expanding into emerging fields, and enhancing project life-cycle management. His vision calls for stronger cross-border collaboration to unlock Asia's potential in the next decade.

In her welcome address, Deputy Mayor of Shanghai, Jie Dong, reinforced Shanghai's dedication to facilitating trade and investment. Highlighting the city's strategic role in aligning the financial and trade sectors, she noted that the forum strengthens ties between Shanghai and Asia's financial hubs, enabling shared growth and mutual prosperity. As an international financial center, Shanghai aims to build on these connections to drive further cooperation across Asia.
