Strengthening Global Ties at the 2025 China International Financial Exhibition
🌏 In mid-June, industry professionals from across the world gathered in Shanghai, China, to discuss new developments in the financial sphere.
RBI was honored to take part in the 2025 China International Financial Exhibition in Shanghai — an event held alongside the prestigious Lujiazui Forum. This year’s exhibition brought over 100 exhibitors from financial institutions and attracted nearly 80,000 visitors to explore the future of finance in a rapidly evolving global landscape.
The event underscored China’s commitment to opening its financial markets and fostering high-quality development. A highlight was the keynote speech by Pan Gongsheng, Governor of the People’s Bank of China, who outlined eight strategic measures to further liberalize China’s financial sector and enhance Shanghai’s position as a global financial hub. His remarks on reforming the international monetary system and modernizing cross-border payment infrastructure resonated strongly with the global financial community.
At the CIPS Exhibition on Bank-Enterprise Collaboration, RBI introduced the RMB International Letter of Credit Service. This offering streamlines cross-border settlements and supports international trade — important in enhancing efficiency for RBI’s clients operating between China and Europe.
A special moment was the presentation by Christoph Pesau, General Manager of RBI Beijing, who spoke on Austria’s strategic role as a gateway to Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). His insights reinforced RBI’s long-standing commitment to connecting Chinese enterprises and financial institutions with opportunities across the CEE region. As investment flows diversify and new markets emerge, RBI remains dedicated to facilitating meaningful partnerships and sustainable growth.
Participating in this exhibition reaffirmed RBI’s role as a bridge between East and West. It was inspiring to engage with peers, partners, and innovators who share our vision for a more connected and resilient financial future.
