Today, Jin Liqun concludes his second term as President and Chair of the Board of Directors of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), marking a decade of leadership since the Bank’s establishment.
Jin Liqun was elected as AIIB’s inaugural President in 2016 and was re-elected for a second term at the Bank’s Fifth Annual Meeting of the Board of Governors in 2020.
Under his leadership, AIIB developed from a bold, collaborative vision shared by 57 founding members into a globally recognized multilateral development bank of 111 approved members. Under President Jin’s tenure, the institution established robust governance frameworks, expanded its membership, maintained its AAA credit ratings and built a diverse portfolio of infrastructure investments across Asia and beyond. His tenure emphasized multilateral cooperation and a commitment to high standards and practical results, solidifying AIIB’s standing as a trusted partner in advancing sustainable infrastructure development and inclusive growth.
As we mark this moment, we wish President Jin continued success and extend our sincere appreciation for his visionary leadership.
