3 During the construction of Belt and Road, China is seeking to form a new foreign cooperation pattern which, with cooperation in basic infrastructure and production capacity as an approach, is backed up financial cooperation, says a report released by National Institution for Finance & Development. I. Establishing International Platforms for Financial Cooperation During the construction of Belt and Road, China is seeking to form a new foreign cooperation pattern which, with cooperation in basic infrastructure and production capacity as an approach, is backed up financial cooperation. China actively carries out financial cooperation with countries along the Belt and Road and international financial institutions and sets up international platforms to meet the financial services needs of those countries for infrastructural construction. Development financial institutions that take part in the Belt and Road Initiative fall into the following three types: multilateral development financial institutions, Chinese policy banks and special investment funds. Of these institutions, international multilateral development financial institutions are the pioneers while Chinese policy banks serve as a strong pillar of financial cooperation. Since 2013, China Development Bank (CBD) has signed more than 140 agreements with partners along the Belt and Road countries, involving a total financing amount of more than 130 billion U.S. dollars. Table: Classification of Development Financial Institutions Type of Financial Institution Name Institution How and What to Support AIIB is a regional multilateral development financial institution with a registered capital of 100 billion U.S. dollars. It disbursed its first loans in Asian Infrastructure AIIB mainly provides loan support for projects in infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) and related sectors. Currently, most of the projects supported by the bank are located in countries along the Belt and Road. Financial NDB BRICS is a regional multilateral development financial institution institutions for New Development with a registered capital of 50 billion U.S. dollars which is shared equally multilateral Bank BRICS (NDB among the 5 BRICS countries. The bank mainly finances infrastructure development BRICS) projects in BRICS countries and other developing countries. World Bank (WB) WB joins AIIB and NDB BRICS in co-financing projects in countries along the Belt and Road. Asian Development ADB is a regional multilateral development financial institution. It joins Bank (ADB) AIIB and NDB BRICS in co-financing the Belt and Road projects. Policy banks China Development CDB serves China s economic diplomacy strategies. It supports Chinese 1
4 Special investment funds Bank (CDB) The Export-Import Bank of China (China Eximbank) Silk Road Fund companies to expand international business. CDB aims at providing comprehensive financial services, including consultancy for strategic planning, project planning and incubation for China s cooperation with the Belt and Road countries. China Eximbank supports import and export trade and go global projects of Chinese companies. The fund was established for a purpose similar to that of AIIB. It is an organization designed specifically for supporting the Belt and Road Initiative. Established on December 29, 2014, the fund owns 40 billion U.S. dollars, with investment from the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (via Wutongshu Investment Platform Co., Ltd.), China Investment Corporation (via Sailisi Investment Co., Ltd.), China Eximbank and China Development Bank (via CDB Capital Co., Ltd.). Source: Compiled based on public information II. Expanding International Markets via Infrastructural Development As an engine for economic globalization, the Belt and Road Initiative places infrastructural construction on top agenda. Only better infrastructural connectivity can encourage business investment, trade and people-to-people exchanges. Characterized by gigantic amount of investment, long construction cycle and long-term fund occupancy but low earnings, infrastructural construction calls for long-term, stable, big-amount and low-cost funding. As regions along the Belt and Road are mostly emerging economies and developing countries, their economic strength and financing capabilities are relatively weak.

5 An effective and sustainable financing mechanism should be established in consideration of the serious bottlenecks constraining infrastructural development and financing along the Belt and Road. 1. Chinese Policy Banks Chinese policy banks mainly refer to China Development Bank (CDB) and the Export-Import Bank of China (China Eximbank). They take part in the Belt and Road Initiative mainly through providing financing and financial consulting services along with low-cost financing support for Chinese and foreign companies and large-scale projects. 1.1 China Development Bank (CBD) By the end of 2016, CDB had granted loans of more than 160 billion U.S. dollars to countries along the Belt and Road. It maintained a loan balance of more than 110 billion U.S. dollars, accounting for over 30% of its international business balance. In addition, the bank reserved over 500 foreign exchange projects in the Belt and Road countries, involving aggregate financing demands of more than 350 billion U.S. dollars. According to industry categories, road, shantytown renovation, public infrastructure, strategic emerging industries, electrical power and railways attracted most loans, with the first three industries taking up 45.55% of the outstanding loans. So far, CDB has invested in an array of infrastructure projects, such as Jakarta-Bandung High-Speed Railway, the infrastructure facilities and 300,000-ton Ferronickel Smelting Project in Indonesia Morowali Industrial Park, the lending to two major Egyptian banks, the coal-fired power plant in Pakistan, and Astana Light Rail Project in Kazakhstan.

The fund is operated according the commercial principles. It invests in traditional energy, infrastructure construction and high-end manufacturing, clean energy and other high-growth industries mainly in China, UAE and other countries and regions with great growth potential. 3

The fund, through supporting the advancement of medium-sized companies in these places, facilitates cooperation between China and France as well as China and Europe. It plays a critical role in propelling economic growth and creating employment. Initiated by the People s Bank of China, SAFE and CDB, contributed by SAFE and CDB, operating from August 2015, the fund provides medium- and long-term financing, with an outlay of 30 billion U.S. dollars. The first tranch of this fund involved 10 billion U.S. dollars. In forms of equity and bonds, the fund makes investment in manufacturing, high-tech, agriculture, energy and mineral, infrastructure and financial cooperation in Latin America, so as to realize medium- and long-term viability. This fund does not seek to control or take majority shares. It provides equity investment to encourage and support Chinese enterprises to invest in Africa, support the growth of African SMEs and the construction of significant projects that may benefit local economy. The fund is an equity investment fund dedicated to investing in eight Portuguese speaking countries and regions, i.e. China (including Macau), Angola, Brazil, Cape Verde, Guinea-Bissau, Mozambique, Portugal and East Timor.

In November 2015, China Eximbank signed a memorandum of understanding on strategic cooperation with the fund.
