Silk Road Fund

President Xi Jinping announced on November 8, 2014 that China would contribute US$40 billion for the Silk Road Fund. The Silk Road Fund Co. Ltd. was established in Beijing on December 29, 2014. Guided by the principles of openness, inclusiveness, and mutual benefit, the Fund focuses on providing medium- to long-term loans to support infrastructure and resources development and industrial cooperation in the countries along the Belt and Road. It complements rather than replaces other global and regional multilateral development banks, and operates under the existing international economic and financial order.

Rather than simply dispensing economic aid, the Fund will take advantage of increased connectivity to create major development opportunities for all. It is an open program and welcomes the participation of investors from Asia and beyond.

By May 2018, the Fund had signed 19 projects with US$7 billion of loans. The total investment of those projects exceeded US$80 billion.
