Guiding Principles on Financing the Development of
the Belt and Road
the Belt and Road
The Belt and Road Initiative aims to promote policy coordination,
facilities connectivity, unimpeded trade, financial integration and
people-to-people exchange among the countries along the Belt and Road
(hereinafter referred to as “countries involved”), promote orderly and free
flows of economic factors, efficient allocation of resources and deep
integration of markets, and jointly create an open, inclusive, and balanced
regional economic cooperation framework that benefits all. Financial
Integration is an important underpinning for implementing the Belt and
Road Initiative. Therefore, we, Finance Ministers of Argentina, Belarus,
Cambodia, Chile, China, Czech, Ethiopia, Fiji, Georgia, Greece, Hungary,
Indonesia, Iran, Kenya, Laos, Malaysia, Mongolia, Myanmar, Pakistan,
Qatar, Russia, Serbia, Sudan, Switzerland, Thailand, Turkey, United
Kingdom, call upon the governments, financial institutions and
companies from countries involved to follow the principles of
equal-footed participation, mutual benefits and risk sharing as they work
together to build a long-term, stable, sustainable financing system that is
well-placed to manage risks.
1. We recognize that strong support from governments is essential
for building an enabling financing system and environment. As such,
governments of countries involved should strengthen policy
communication, consolidate cooperation intention, and jointly send a
positive signal of supporting and financing the development of the Belt
and Road.
2. We encourage countries along the routes to establish common
platform(s) wherby countries in the region, while forging synergies of
their development strategies and investment plans, map out strategies or
plans for regional infrastructure development, formulate principles for
identifying and prioritizing major projects, coordinate their supporting
policies and financing arrangements, and share experiences on
implementation.2
3. We support channeling of financial resources to serve the real
economy of countries and regions involved, with priority given to such
areas as infrastructure connectivity, trade and investment, industrial
capacity cooperation, energy and energy efficiency, natural resources and
SMEs.
4. We reaffirm the important role of infrastructure in sustainable
economic and social development. We encourage countries involved to
open public service markets as appropriate, while maintaining a sound
and stable legal, policy and regulatory framework and develop
public-private partnerships to channel funds and improve the efficiency
and quality of infrastructure supply. We encourage the interested parties
to establish effective information flow between private sector and
financial institutions which support sustainable development through
financing infrastructure investments.
5. We value the guiding role of public funds in planning and
building major projects. We will continue to utilize existing public
funding channels such as inter-governmental cooperation funds and
foreign assistance funds, and coordinate with other funding channels to
support the development of the Belt and Road, including strengthening
cooperation in people’s welfare, people-to-people exchange among
relevant countries and regions.
6. We encourage policy financial institutions and export credit
agencies of countries involved to continue offering policy financial
support for the development of the Belt and Road. We also encourage
these institutions to strengthen coordination and cooperation, and play
their role in financing promotion and risk-sharing through various means
such as loan, guaranty, equity investment, co-financing, etc.
7. We call upon development financial institutions to consider
providing more financial support and technical assistance for countries
involved. We encourage multilateral development banks and national
development financial institutions to actively participate in the
development of the Belt and Road within their mandates, particularly
cross-border infrastructure construction through loan, equity investment,
guaranty, co-financing, and other relevant financing channels. We support3
these institutions in strengthening of coordination and collaboration to
provide sustainable financing, institutional know-how and consulting
services to countries involved.
8. We recognize the decisive role of the market in financial resources
allocation. We envisage all types of commercial financial institutions
such as commercial banks, equity funds as well as insurance, leasing,
guarantee companies to provide funds and other financial services for the
development of the Belt and Road. We welcome proactive participation
of long-term institutional investors such as pension funds and sovereign
wealth funds, in particular in the area of infrastructure development, as
appropriate and subject to their institutional arrangements.
9. We support further development of local and regional financial
markets. We welcome the development of local currency bond markets
and equity markets in countries involved to diversify long-term financing
sources and reduce currency mismatch risks.
10. We support orderly opening-up of local and regional financial
markets, while respecting the international obligations of the countries
involved, if any. We encourage steady expansion of market access of
banking, insurance and securities sectors as appropriate to national
circumstances, support financial institutions to set up subsidiaries and/or
branches in each other’s countries, and further facilitate the application
and approval for the establishment of financial institutions, in accordance
with domestic law and regulations of host countries.
11. We encourage financial innovation that responds to the needs
of funding the development of the Belt and Road and to the needs of
countries involved. We support the innovation by financial institutions in
terms of financing models, channels, tools and service sunder the
precondition that risks are well managed.
12. We call upon the countries involved to deepen cooperation in
financial regulation and strengthen coordination on cross-border
supervision, in order to create a fair, efficient and stable regulatory
environment for financial institutions, while respecting the international
obligations of the countries involved, if any.4
13. We advocate for a transparent, friendly, non-discriminatory
and predictable financing environment. We support greater openness to
FDI as appropriate, speeding up trade and investment facilitation wher
needed, and opposing trade and investment protectionism of all forms.
We advocate for fair, equitable, open and efficient legal systems, as well
as mutual-beneficial and investor-friendly taxation regimes. We support
the settlement of debt and investment disputes in a fair, lawful and
reasonable way to effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of
creditors and investors.
14. We underscore the need to strengthen social and
environmental impact assessment and risk management of projects,
improve cooperation on energy conservation and environmental
protection, fulfill social responsibilities, promote local employment and
ensure sustainable economic and social development. We also need to
take into account debt sustainability in mobilizing finance.
15. We recognize that financing arrangements for the development
of the Belt and Road should benefit all businesses and populations in a
way that supports sustainable and inclusive development. Financing
should also be provided for enhancing technological capabilities, skills
development, job creation particularly for the youth and women. We
vigorously support efforts to promote inclusive finance, encourage
governments, policy financial institutions, development finance
institutions and commercial financial institutions to strengthen
cooperation to ensure access to financial information and services for all,
and provide proper, stable and affordable financial services for SMEs.
