The Export-Import Bank of China (China EximBank) has issued nearly 500 billion yuan (about 74.15 billion U.S. dollars) in manufacturing loans in the first seven months of the year, the bank said on Tuesday.
The newly released funds have targeted key sectors, including the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries, the growth and expansion of emerging industries, and the forward-looking layout of future industries. Among these funds, loans for advanced manufacturing approached nearly 200 billion yuan, accounting for 40 percent of the total.
This year, the bank has fully leveraged its role as a policy-based financial institution by increasing resource allocations and strengthening efforts to support the high-quality development of the manufacturing sector and help build a modern industrial system anchored by advanced manufacturing.
China EximBank is a state-funded and state-owned policy bank that supports China's foreign trade, investment, and international economic cooperation.

China's appropriately accommodative monetary policy continued to deliver results in the third quarter, while the quality and effect of financial sector serving the real economy continued to improve, said the third-quarter monetary policy report released by the People's Bank of China (PBOC) on Wednesday.
The PBOC, China's central bank, said in the report that the country's credit structure continued to optimize in the third quarter.
At the end of September, loans to the technology, green, inclusive finance, elderly care and digital economy sectors grew 12.0 percent, 13.0 percent, 6.5 percent, 16.2 percent and 15.7 percent year on year, respectively, all continuing to outpace overall loan growth.
Financing costs across the economy remained low, the report showed, with new corporate loans in September carrying rates slightly below 3.0 percent and new personal housing loans around three percent.
The yuan exchange rate remained basically stable at a reasonable and balanced level. At the end of September, the yuan closed at 6.7053 per U.S. dollar, appreciating 4.1 percent from the end of 2025.
Looking ahead, the PBOC said it will continue to implement the appropriately accommodative monetary policy, comprehensively use and adjust monetary policy tools as appropriate, and guide the growth of social financing and money supply to match economic growth and the expected target for overall prices.
The central bank will seek to create a suitable monetary and financial environment for stable economic growth, high-quality development and the smooth operation of financial markets.
