The Export-Import Bank of China (Exim Bank) executed cooperative agreements with nearly 40 enterprises at a ceremony held on 6 November at the China International Import Expo held in Shanghai.

The agreements are for the purpose of “actively satisfying the import financing needs of enterprises” and are collectively worth more than 23 billion yuan, covering sectors including advanced manufacturing and green finance.

According to Wu Exim Bank has provided a total of 200 billion yuan in financing to enterprises on nearly 300 occasions at the previous Import Expos.
