The 2025 China Financial Association Academic Annual Conference and China Financial Forum Annual Conference will be held in Beijing.

On the morning of December 6, 2025, the Annual Academic Conference of the China Finance Society and the Annual Forum of the China Finance Forum opened in Beijing. The theme of this year's conference is "Taking the Road of Chinese Characteristics Financial Development to Support China's Modernization". Yi Gang, President of the China Finance Society Council, delivered the keynote speech, and Lu Lei, member of the Party Committee and Vice President of the People's Bank of China, attended the opening forum and delivered a speech. Yi Gang delivered the keynote speech titled "Anchoring High-Quality Development and Building a Modern Financial System with Chinese Characteristics". He pointed out that under the strong leadership of the central government, the Chinese financial industry has always adhered to a people-centered approach, serving the overall economic construction and social development, achieving historic leaps and outstanding achievements. In the new journey of building a socialist modernized country comprehensively, inclusive financial development should continue to embody inclusiveness, fully implement the principle of "putting the people first", adhere to the principle of commercial sustainability, and benefit the common people with financial vitality. Green financial development should gradually reduce the negative externalities of carbon emissions and continuously narrow the green premium, mobilize social capital to actively participate in a market-oriented manner, and jointly promote the green and low-carbon transformation of the entire economy. Lu Lei stated that a strong currency serves as a measure of stable value, is recognized by the global financial market consensus as an objective indicator, and meets the requirements of the era by focusing on intelligent digitization. The renminbi already embodies these characteristics and has the potential to continuously enhance its advantageous position. He looks forward to various parties utilizing the platform provided by the China Finance Society to achieve more influential new results in the areas of global financial governance reform, potential factors affecting economic development, and the impact of artificial intelligence development.
