The 2025 Lujiazui Forum officially opened in Shanghai on Wednesday morning, expecting multiple major financial policies to be announced for deeper financial reform, openness, and international cooperation.

The two-day forum has gathered policymakers, regulators, and financial leaders from over ten countries and regions. This year's theme, "Financial opening up and cooperation for high-quality development in a changing global economy," highlights China's commitment to further integrating into the global financial system.

Senior leaders from the People's Bank of China, the National Administration of Financial Regulation, the China Securities Regulatory Commission, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, and the Shanghai Municipal Government will deliver keynote speeches.

More than 70 distinguished speakers are attending the forum, including heads of foreign financial institutions and global regulatory agencies.

After the opening ceremony, there will be eight plenary sessions and forums with a strong emphasis on cutting-edge topics, such as how artificial intelligence can empower financial reform and innovation, how finance can support the development of new quality productive forces, and how to improve the multi-tiered capital market system to cultivate patient capital.

Three special sessions will also be held, focusing on reinsurance market development, science and technology finance, and the rule of law in finance.
