Reshaping the world order, accelerating intelligent finance

In 2025, the world is being reshaped by two transformative forces: the resurgence of protectionist trade measures and the rapid acceleration of artificial intelligence (AI). The United States’ reintroduction of reciprocal tariffs has triggered ripple effects across global markets, disrupting supply chains, investment flows and long-standing frameworks of economic cooperation. These developments challenge the foundation of the post-war international order and signal a new era of strategic competition and economic fragmentation.

Concurrently, AI is driving unprecedented transformation in how industries operate. In financial services, it is redefining decision-making, operational models, customer engagement and risk management. From generative AI to agent-based automation, the pace of adoption is not only reshaping business strategies but also raising fundamental questions around governance, ethics and systemic resilience.

As the world's second-largest economy, China stands at the intersection of these global shifts. While responding to external shocks, it is advancing an ambitious domestic agenda centred on strengthening consumption, enhancing capital efficiency and accelerating digital transformation. Chinese financial institutions are playing a key role in this transition—deploying AI, data analytics and digital infrastructure to drive productivity, support real-sector growth and improve financial inclusion.

The Future of Finance China 2025 will examine how policymakers, financial institutions, and technology providers are adapting to this complex and fast-evolving environment. The conference brings together leaders from banking, regulation, and innovation to explore how China’s financial sector is navigating the twin pressures of geopolitical volatility and digital transformation—and what that means for the future of finance in China and globally.
