Building resilience KEY TAKEAWAYS The infrastructure gap in Asia is estimated in the trillions of dollars The AIIB aims for sustainable economic growth by investing in infrastructure Jin Liqun President Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank Jin Liqun was appointed the inaugural President of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) in January 2016, having served as President-Designate since September 2015. Previously, he was Secretary General of the Multilateral Interim Secretariat , which prepared the legal, policy and administrative frameworks required for establishing the AIIB. Before working on the AIIB, Jin served in top management at the China International Capital Corporation Ltd, China Investment Corporation and the International Forum of Sovereign Wealth Funds, as well as the Asian Development Bank and China’s Ministry of Finance. @AIIB_Official www.aiib.org YIN BOGU/XINHUA/ALAMY LIVE NEWS 70 G20 Germany: The Hamburg Summit • July 2017 G7G20.com
Building resilience A new, 21st-century internationalism that promotes the idea of shared benefits is needed Connecting the world A multilateral approach is needed to facilitate Asian infrastructure development, writes Jin Liqun The global importance of a robust and dynamic Asian economy is evident; however, Asia faces new and complex challenges stemming from rapid urbanisation, a massive infrastructure gap, the impact of climate change and environmental degradation. All this is underpinned by a young demographic and growing economy putting increasingly higher demands on existing resources and infrastructure. The infrastructure gap in Asia is well documented. Estimated in the trillions of dollars, it is widely acknowledged to be beyond the scope of any one institution to solve single-handedly – be it government, social or corporate. This is where the importance of international collaboration and cooperation becomes evident. But this is not the globalisation of the 20th century. A new, 21st-century internationalism that promotes the idea of shared benefits is needed. And not just for Asia, but for the entire world. Within this context the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) was born. We are building a better tomorrow by engaging governments, the private sector, other multilateral development banks and civil society in support of a vision of common prosperity. Our mandate is to foster sustainable economic growth and development, as well as promote regional connectivity and cooperation, through investment in infrastructure and other productive sectors. Our core values of ‘Lean, Clean and Green’ underpin our decision-making. Since launching in January 2016, the AIIB’s approved membership has expanded from 57 to 80. It is truly global, with members from every continent and broad support from both regional and non-regional countries. This acknowledges the bank’s adherence to the values and principles of openness, transparency and accountability, and the recognition of the delivery of our commitments over the last 18 months. Facilitating infrastructure projects With a small and talented staff, we have approved $2.49 billion in loans for 16 projects in nine countries. Our three thematic priorities of cross-border connectivity, sustainable infrastructure and private capital mobilisation guide investment decisions to build and improve members’ roadways, rails, ports, wastewater management systems, clean and efficient energy generation, improved access to telecoms, and development of sustainable cities. The importance of quality infrastructure and regional connectivity also cannot be overstated. It is not just about the quality of an individual project, but also about the overall impact of infrastructure $2.49BN Loans approved for 16 infrastructure projects in 9 countries by the AIIB development. It is crucial to ensure that all the infrastructure projects are coordinated, balanced and integrated to maximise benefits. An airport or seaport should not wait for the construction of roads or railways connecting it to be completed. Neither should a power plant wait for the transmission or distribution system to be finished. That is why AIIB emphasises resource allocation in the context of national and regional connectivity and development. Moving to a low-carbon future We are committed to the principles of sustainable development in conceptualising, designing and implementing our investments, and we actively work to facilitate our clients’ transition to a less carbon-intensive energy mix as they develop and improve their infrastructure and increase energy access. The AIIB plays a key role as a facilitator to help members move to a low-carbon future. We work together to ensure our investments in infrastructure can achieve maximum results to promote growth, productivity and to meet their Nationally Determined Contributions under the Paris Agreement. The AIIB continues to strengthen its institutional foundation and build up its internal capacity. We are striving to build a 21st-century multilateral institution that achieves results by doing development differently. By operating true to our values and core principles, and by benefiting from the wide experience of our shareholders, partner multilateral development banks and the private sector, we believe we can realise our grand vision of a future of shared benefits across Asia and beyond.
