The Boao Forum for Asia (BFA) was established to promote and deepen economic exchange, coordination and cooperation within Asia and Australasia, and between the region and other parts of the world. Often known as “China’s Davos”, its annual Forum offers a platform for senior leaders from national governments, business, and academia to discuss issues that affect, not only the region, but also its interaction with the world at large.

For the first time in nearly a decade, the BFA will hold a conference in Europe, which will focus on financial connectivity and cooperation between Asia and Europe. The event is spread over a day and a half, and will include presentations by senior Asian and European speakers, including BFA’s Vice Chairman, and former Vice Premier of China, Mr Zeng Peiyan; and President Designate of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) , Mr Jin Liqun. The sessions will cover on a variety of topics, including “Rebalancing Global Financial Governance”, “AIIB and Innovative Financing for Infrastructure”, and “Two-way Trade and Investment”. In addition, there will be considerable opportunities for networking.
